Chapter 416 Direct Free Kick(1/2)

After Zhang Huasong won Real Sociedad away with a hat-trick on the bench, Atletico Madrid took a day off on October 22 and resumed training on October 23.

This time, Atletico Madrid's training attracted more media reporters to interview and fans.

Of course, Zhang Huasong is the most eye-catching one, and most of the reporters and fans are visiting Zhang Huasong for training.

However, during the opening training time, Zhang Huasong did not show any unique ball skills, but was just conducting ordinary pass and receiving training.

But in this basic training, if running is not involved, Zhang Huasong's pass and receiving accuracy is the most accurate among Atletico Madrid players, proving that Zhang Huasong's pass and receiving level is very high.

As long as you practice with the team for a period of time and form a tacit understanding, I believe that Zhang Huasong can cooperate with his teammates in the official game.

At present, what people are more concerned about is the Champions League group stage between Atletico Madrid and Arsenal.

After the training, Zhang Huasong signed the fans while accepting an interview with reporters and answered his views on the third round of the Champions League group stage.

Zhang Huasong firmly believes that although Arsenal is a regular visitor to the Champions League and has rich experience, Atletico Madrid is not a good person!

Especially at his home court, Atletico Madrid will definitely defeat Arsenal and continue to maintain the first place in the Group B standings in the group stage!

On the side of Arsenal, the little tiger Walcott said that the Gunners will definitely capture Calderon Stadium, and it will be useless even if Zhang Huasong comes on the court!

Zhang Huasong's hat trick in the game was just that Real Sociedad was not familiar with him!

Arsenal's strength is not comparable to Real Sociedad! As long as you take strict precautions against Zhang Huasong, Zhang Huasong will not even score a goal, let alone a hat trick!

These are naturally just pre-match verbal battles. The real victory or defeat will only be known after everyone has fought!

On the evening of October 24, local time in Madrid, Atletico Madrid in the third round of the 2012/2013 European Champions League group stage, the match against Arsenal at Calderon Stadium is about to begin.

Zhang Huasong won the starter in this game, and no one questioned it.

After all, Zhang Huasong scored a hat trick in just 45 minutes in the last game. With such an outstanding performance, unless Simeone's head was pinched by the door, it would be impossible not to start Zhang Huasong.

This game was also the first time Zhang Huasong appeared at Calderon Stadium as a player. Calderon Stadium was full, and countless Atletico Madrid fans were excited to jump and jump in the stands to welcome Zhang Huasong's first home appearance.

When players on both sides stand in the player's passage and the live broadcast outside calls each Atletico player's name, it will cause fans on the scene to shout the player's name in unison.

When the commentator shouted "No. 16", tens of thousands of fans in the audience shouted "Zhang Huasong" in unison, which was amazing and shocked the audience, fully demonstrating how welcome Atletico Madrid fans are to Zhang Huasong now.

As the president, Zhang Huasong would never be supported by so many fans, but as a player, Zhang Huasong became an important force in the team's revival that fans place high hopes on after he scored a hat trick in the last game.

Fans still feel that as athletes, Zhang Huasong is closer, more intimate and more popular with them!

Therefore, fans welcome Zhang Huasong's appearance in this way.

As for the subsequent recitation of the name of the Arsenal player, there was no movement. If you were not booed, it would be considered that Arsenal and Atletico Madrid had no hatred!

Then, players from both sides showed up with caddies under the referee group and played the Champions League theme song. Then the players from both sides shook hands and picked the side. Atletico Madrid won the right to pick the side and the serving rights fell to Arsenal.

At about 20 pm, with the referee's whistle, the third group stage of the Group B group B of Atletico Madrid vs Arsenal in the 2012/2013 European Champions League group stage officially began.

Under the leadership of Professor Wenger, Arsenal has been adhering to beautiful offensive football for many years, and has thus won the praise of many offensive football lovers around the world.

Therefore, Arsenal is also the only team in mainland Europe that has not won the Champions League but is recognized as a giant.

It can be seen how deeply rooted and popular Arsenal's offensive football is!

Even if they have not won the championship for many years, Arsenal still insists on their playing style and will not change because they have not won the championship!

From another perspective, this kind of persistence is also very valuable!

In this game, Arsenal also used the kick-off right from the beginning of the game to launch an attack on Atletico Madrid, and would not converge because of Atletico Madrid's defensive counterattack and away games.

This consistent quality has also officially allowed Arsenal to gain the support and recognition of countless fans even if he has not won the championship for many years.

In addition to insisting on offensive football, Arsenal also focused on defense against Zhang Huasong.

Except for someone who keeps a close distance from Zhang Huasong at any time, other defenders should focus on preventing Zhang Huasong's breakthrough and shot whenever they see Zhang Huasong catch the ball.

Because everyone knows that Zhang Huasong has just joined Atletico Madrid and his teammates are not tacitly in cooperation. Even if Zhang Huasong passes the ball, the chance of forming a threat is very small.

On the contrary, Zhang Huasong's speed, outspread and shooting, poses a greater threat to the goal.

Therefore, as long as you focus on guarding against Zhang Huasong's personal breakthroughs and shots, Zhang Huasong's threat to the goal will be reduced a lot.

In the first 30 minutes of the first half, Zhang Huasong was indeed restricted to almost nothing.

Except for shooting, Zhang Huasong's other skills are still high-level, and he cannot reach the point where he is in a state of no one on the court. It is normal for him to be intercepted and conceal the ball.

However, in the same way, Arsenal also paid a yellow card to stop Zhang Huasong's breakthrough and shot. Every time Zhang Huasong's breakthrough and outsizes, it involves two or three Arsenal defenders, making them dare not have too much energy to invest in the offense.

Therefore, Atletico Madrid did not score, and Arsenal also did not score. The two sides tied in the first 30 minutes.

In the 34th minute, Zhang Huasong received a pass from his teammate near the center line again and began to break through, but after passing two people, he was about to enter the penalty area and was knocked down by the opponent's back midfielder.

The referee blew the foul whistle and Atletico Madrid won a good frontcourt free kick.

In the last game, Zhang Huasong had a free kick against Real Sociedad, but the arc free kick he sent hit the crossbar without scoring.

In this game, Zhang Huasong also won a free kick within the first 30 minutes, but it was too far from the goal. Although he hit the goal frame, he was confiscated by goalkeeper Szczesny.

Zhang Huasong, who scored more than half of the free kicks in training, actually scored two free kicks in the official game but had not scored yet, which made Zhang Huasong quite annoyed.

This time, the Arsenal player's foul was on the left side of the front of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal, which is a very good free kick serving area.

Zhang Huasong stood behind the serving point, Costa, Aguero, Falcao and others stood in the penalty area, interfering with Arsenal's defensive players, and preparing to grab points or get a bargain to make up for the shot.

"Atlanie Madrid's free kick in the frontcourt is quite good. Let's see if Zhang Huasong can score this free kick!" Many commentators explained with anticipation.

Arsenal blocked the wall of the near corner on the left and lined up. Goalkeeper Szczesny stood at the right side of the goal. After the referee whistled, Zhang Huasong began to run.

Zhang Huasong was not far from the football. After only two steps of running, he kicked the inner instep of the ball towards the middle and lower part of the ball with his right foot, and then lifted the ball upwards. The ball flew up and flew over the person who was jumping.

When Szczesny saw the football move through the cracks, he judged that Zhang Huasong was going to hit the corner.

Therefore, as soon as the football was kicked out by Zhang Huasong, Szczesni had moved two steps to the left. Then, seeing the ball flying over the wall, Szczesni immediately rushed out and intercepted the ball flying in the air.

However, although Szczesny had already reacted quickly enough, Zhang Huasong's ball angle was even more striking.

After the ball flew over the wall, it drew an arc in the air, and then drilled into the upper left corner of the goal, which was beyond the reach of Szczesny.

Although he made a save move and had a accurate judgment on the direction, he still failed to stop the arc free kick of this tricky angle.

The commentators on the scene shouted:

“goooooooooooooooooooooooooo…”

"The ball was scored, the ball was scored, and Zhang Huasong scored a beautiful direct free kick!"

"After playing a hat-trick in the league, Zhang Huasong scored another direct free kick in this Champions League match and won his first goal in the Champions League!"

"The beautiful free kick went straight to the dead corner. Szczesny judged the right direction, but it was still beyond the reach!"

As for the entire Calderon Stadium, it was naturally filled with cheers from the excited Atletico Madrid fans. Zhang Huasong, Aguero and others celebrated excitedly, completely igniting the warm atmosphere of Calderon Stadium.

In such a strong dialogue, the goal ahead of Premier League giant Arsenal is enough to make Atletico fans on the scene cheer and celebrate.

With Zhang Huasong's direct free kick score, Atletico Madrid led Arsenal 1-0 at home.

After falling behind in the score, Arsenal had to attack more, and Atletico Madrid made a more natural defensive counterattack.

However, Atletico Madrid's defensive counterattack is not passive, but active.

Whether it is a backcourt defender or a frontcourt offensive player, as long as the ball is near him, he will press without stopping high positions, even the boss, President Zhang, is no exception.

In the 39th minute, Arsenal's midfield pass mistake was cut off by Falcao and passed it to Zhang Huasong.

Zhang Huasong took two steps, passed a man with a spike, and then directly shot a heavy gun more than 30 meters away from the goal.

As a result, Szczesny blocked it, and Costa's supplementary shot was interfered by the opponent's defender and he shot a plane.

In the 43rd minute, Atletico Madrid launched a high-speed counterattack.

This time, Zhang Huasong was in a relatively low position. After receiving the ball, he passed it to Aguero. Aguero passed it to Costa running in front. Costa passed it horizontally to Falcao who was inserted. Falcao scored in one go, and Atletico Madrid led Arsenal 2-0!

When Falcao scored, the entire Calderon Stadium was in full bloom again.

Atletico Madrid led Arsenal 2-0 in the first half, and everyone's Atletico Madrid fans were very excited!

After 15 minutes of halftime break, the sidelines changed again in the second half.

In the 51st minute, Arsenal had an unlimited chance to score. Podolski's shot was blocked by De Gea's leg and returned to the penalty area, but Walcott's close-up shot actually hit the plane.

At that moment, the little tiger Walcott was in tears. Thousands of Arsenal fans in the stands held their heads and couldn't believe their eyes!

If you don’t enter the empty door, you will be punished!

Just ten minutes later, in the 61st minute, Atletico Madrid scored its third goal!

This time, it was another counterattack and goal from Zhang Huasong!

He received a pass from Gabi near the center line and ran all the way. He passed by two people in a row. After entering the penalty area, he shot violently. The ball hit the grass and rushed into the lower right corner of the goal. Szczesny was out of reach and sighed.

This long-distance raid once again demonstrated Zhang Huasong's unrivaled speed advantage on the court. Zhang Huasong did not even use any extraordinary skills in this counterattack. He just went out before the opponent's defender approached, and then ran from the side to chase the ball and left the opponent's defender behind.

The feeling of surpassing the opponent in an instant and then turning the opponent farther away made countless fans on the scene and in front of the TV very excited!

Atletico Madrid led Premier League giants Arsenal 3-0 at home, and Wenger's face was covered with clouds.

After Zhang Huasong scored twice and Atletico Madrid led Arsenal 3-0, Arsenal's players seemed to have suffered a significant blow and began to make frequent mistakes in the following game.

However, Atletico Madrid players failed to seize the opportunity to expand the score, wasted several scoring opportunities, and the 3-0 score continued until the 82nd minute.

In the 82nd minute of the game, Aguero dribbled the ball on the right and was tackled to the ground by the opponent's defender, which almost caused a conflict between players.
