Chapter 176 Lay the victory
"There was an accident in front of the goal just now. Was the ball blocked across the goal line or was it blocked on the goal line."
"The referee is discussing with the lineman. It seems they don't know if the goal is valid."
"It seems that slow-motion replay is needed to determine whether the ball is entering or not. Let's take a look at the big screen together."
For a moment, there was no other sound in the Alp Stadium except for the commentator's surprise and confusion. At this time, whether it was the players, the head coach, or the fans, they looked at the big screen with the same question.
"Has this ball entered?"
At this time, everything that happened in front of the goal was played back on the big screen. On the screen, the round ball bounced towards the goal at a speed not very fast. The moment the ball was about to press onto the goal line, Lu Hao's big hand appeared. The slap just slapped the ball out from the edge of the goal line.
Seeing this, the Fiorentine fans were boiling in the stands. There were waves of cheers and cheers to Lu Hao who came out to save the team at a critical moment. Each of them had an excitement and an excited smile on their faces.
However, the Juventus fans were stunned at this time. The screen clearly showed that the ball just now was retrieved from the edge of the goal line by the young Fiorentina goalkeeper. The evidence was conclusive, and the fact that the team they supported wasted another great opportunity cannot be changed.
When the big screen replay showed Lu Hao's successful save, the referee and the lineman also discussed the result. The referee returned to the court and immediately made a gesture of Juventus serving an out-of-bounds ball.
“yes”
When Lu Hao saw the gesture made by the referee, he yelled and clenched his fists with excitement on his face and hit his chest several times. Uyfalusi and others were also very excited and slapped their high-fives with their nearby teammates to celebrate.
On the sidelines, looking at the gesture made by the referee, Juventus coach Capello sat back to the coach's seat with a little disappointment. When he saw Lu Hao just saw from the big screen, he took out the ball at the moment when the ball crossed the goal line, he even began to pray that the referee and the linebacker would be able to win the goal.
It was not until he sat back on the coach's seat that he suddenly woke up. After a moment, he felt that his thoughts just now were really ridiculous.
The 27-time league champion, and several teams in Europe and even around the world, will pin their hopes of victory on the referee's wrong judgment when competing with a newly promoted team.
"Even without the help of the referee, Fiorentina, who has just been promoted from the second division, will not be our opponent."
After being steady, Capello regained his mood and continued to think about countermeasures that could help the team take the lead.
On the other side, Mondonico laughed and hugged the assistant referee beside him hard. When the referee blew the whistle just now, his heart sank suddenly.
If the referee really determines that the goal is valid, even if he filed a complaint after the game, it would not be able to change the result of the game. He did not want to see the young men under his command working so hard, but ended up with such an unfortunate ending.
Release the assistant coach, Mondonico walked over and slapped the substitutes with excitement to celebrate. Lu Hao's save this time can be said to have pulled Fiorentina back from the edge of the abyss. Not only did he not give his opponent a lead, but he had a significant impact on the morale of both sides.
As Mondonico expected, Lu Hao's successful save made the morale of the players on the Fiorentine field boost. The morale among Juventus has fluctuated considerably.
As one goes up and down, Juventus made this out-of-bounds ball shortly after he sent out this out-of-bounds ball, Maresca and Zierlini worked together to intercept the ball from Camoranesi's feet.
With this momentum, Fiorentina immediately launched a counterattack against Juventus under the organization of Maresca. Maresca dribbled the ball very quickly and shook continuously. Then suddenly a man scored the ball, crossed Zebina, who came to block it, and dribbled the ball straight to the bottom line.
At this time, Batistuta, Bozinov, Rigano and front midfielder Eisu Nakada entered the penalty area to respond. Seeing that his teammates had already entered the penalty area with tacit understanding and prepared to receive his cross, he smiled knowingly in his heart.
"These guys are just waiting for my pass. Okay, I'll satisfy you."
Immediately, Maresca rubbed the ball. The ball flew high, drew an arc in the air, and accurately landed in the crowded penalty area.
"This ball is mine"
Batistuta beat Zanbrotta, roared and jumped up hard, and hit the ball hard. Suddenly, the ball rushed straight to the corner of the goal like an arrow from the string. Although he was not famous for his header, his header also caused headaches for many goalkeepers.
"Hell"
The world's number one goalkeeper Buffon saw the ball flying straight to the dead corner of the goal, and he couldn't help but curse. Then he jumped hard and blocked the ball of the flying goal with one hand.
wipe
A light sound that he only heard made Buffon's heart sank. Although he touched the ball, Batistuta's header was strong and the angle was very tricky. Although he had used all his strength, he was unable to lift the ball out of the crossbar.
Swish
Another light sound, the ball brought a net flower on the white ball net and then fell into the goal.
Beep
The referee whistle sounded and his finger pointed to the center circle. The goal was valid
Suddenly, more than 10,000 Fiorentine fans burst into cheers full of happiness. They were so happy. Today, not only did they support Lu Hao break the record of not conceding goals, but the team also led the powerful Juventus away.
"Too handsome God of War"
Lu Hao stood at the front of the penalty area, raised his hands and shouted at the frontcourt. He was very happy for Batistuta's goal. Perhaps others don't know, but he knew that since Fiorentina started his Serie A journey, Batistuta has not placed himself as a hero in the goal. He has been silently creating various goals opportunities for his young teammates. This also led to the God of War only scoring a few goals in these eleven rounds of the league. Now that the God of War has finally shown his style, he is naturally happy for it.
On the sidelines, Mondonico was extremely happy about Batistuta's timely goal. After a while, he rushed to the sidelines and shouted: "Defense, defend this goal advantage, we will win."
Mondonico's cry as if no one was around reached Capello's ears not far away. Capello was so angry that he wanted to rush forward and strangle the old boy to death. "1:0 pragmatism" is a tactic that Juventus has always implemented. Now it is used by his opponent to deal with him, which is simply a slap in the face.
After reminding the players on the court, Mondonico returned to normal and returned to the coaching bench with a smile before the fourth official came. This made him unhappy. He encountered strong opponents in two consecutive games. Although he repeatedly emphasized to Lu Hao and others that he must win this game, he secretly had the idea of saving a point as a victory. But now, they actually lead the powerful Juventus. As long as they keep this point in the last thirty minutes, they will win this game.
"You want to stick to this point, okay, I see how long you can hold on."
Looking at Mondonico smiling in the coach's seat not far away, Capello turned around and strode to the sidelines, making a full-strength attack gesture.
Soon, after Batistuta celebrated his long-lost goal, the game started again. As the referee whistle blew the game and started again, the players on both sides immediately acted according to the instructions of their respective coaches.
Fiorentina side retreated completely, and even Bozinov and other forwards retreated to their half. Rigano even stood directly in the center line and the free throw arc, looking like a defensive midfielder. Batistuta was not as thorough as Rigano. He just swam around the center line slowly, forcing Juventus center-backs Zambrota and Cannavaro dare not cross the center line easily.
At this time, Guinness couldn't sit still in the stands. Florence set up such an iron barrel formation, which clearly wanted to defend this point. If the game ended like this, he would have to run three laps around the Alp Stadium.
"Damn it, attack quickly and destroy their defense. Just one goal is fine."
Guinness was so anxious that he was sweating, as if he was sitting on a plastic bench, but a red iron plate. It was not until this time that he regretted why he made such a vow in the report. In this way, even if he wanted to go back on his word, he had to pray that those who were not bored would take the newspaper to court to sue him. If the evidence was conclusive, the court would probably conclude that he would lose the case.
Therefore, he could only pray to the omnipotent God anxiously in his heart. He hoped that Juventus could equalize the score as soon as possible. Of course, for him, it would be better if he could surpass the score.
The intensive defense like an iron barrel is a problem that no one in the world can solve. What's more, Italy, which is known for its defense. Although Fiorentina is very offensive under the transformation of Mondonico, their defensive skills may not be much worse than any team.
Facing the intensive defense of ten people, plus a deliberately hanging in the midfield, Batistuta, who was so stung that they could only participate in the attack with eight people, was completely blocked from the penalty area.
Time passed minute by minute. Piero and others racked their brains and couldn't think of a way to tear open Fiorentina's defense line. And they had to raise their spirits to deal with Fiorentina's defensive counterattack.
Although there is only Batistuta ahead, the famous God of War may not be able to educate them with facts, and the God of War cannot be ignored.
The whole team of Fiorentina worked together to defend, and Lu Hao suddenly felt that the pressure was greatly reduced. He even had the time to pay attention to Batistuta in the midfield.
Thirty minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and Juventus still couldn't tear away Fiorentina's dense defense. Ginis's eyes were dull and he collapsed in his seat like a mud. He was already desperate. In front of him, he seemed to be running around the Alp Stadium with his naked body in the joking eyes of everyone.
时—时—
In the dull eyes of Johnnie, the referee ruthlessly blew the whistle to the end of the game. In the end, Fiorentina defeated Juventus tenaciously on the away game with a goal from Batistuta and snatched a three-pointer.
As soon as the final whistle fell, deafening cheers suddenly sounded in the Alp Stadium...
