Chapter 63: Subtle cooperation at the front of the penalty area
Russian midfielder Jiryanov took the ball and looked up to find someone. The Russian national team has begun to seek opportunities for offense. They don’t want the guys from the German national team to keep suppressing them. They must respond.
Flins of the German national team immediately forced him up, and the Russian midfielder who took the ball did not get entangled with Flins of the German team. Russian Jiriyanov knocked the ball across the side and passed the ball to Jirkov who was inserted. As soon as Jirkov got the ball, he passed the ball to a half high and long pass in the middle.
There, Russian striker Russian Tsar Al Shavin stopped the ball with his bra and turned around. The German national team's full-back Ram rushed over immediately. However, Al Shavin seemed to have expected it. He picked up the ball on the inside of his calf, turned around with a beautiful pull-up, and got rid of the German full-back Ram's snatch, and then paddled the jumping ball with his knee. Almost when he looked up at the German national team's goal, his left foot was directly at the bottom of the ball!
The shot dropped about 35 meters away from the goal, and the ball drew an extremely exaggerated arc and flew towards the German national team's goal!
Super long shot!
All the fans in Westphalia stadium felt their hearts being stabbed hard!
"Beautiful, beautiful get rid of it, long shot...super long shot..." Liu Jianhong suddenly exclaimed in the Beijing studio and roared wildly.
German goalkeeper Adler was highly focused. Almost when Russian Tsar Arshavin pulled out that kick, he reacted. After taking two steps in a row, he leaned back and jumped up on the spot, almost instinctively. He stretched out his right hand, bounced his fingertips, and barely pulled the suddenly falling ball out of the crossbar!
After Adler made a save, he slipped to the ground in a mess, causing a cold sweat.
The ball didn't go in!
The Russian national team won a corner kick!
"Beautiful! Wonderful!! The Russian Tsar's escape from a long shot, and a series of actions were done very beautifully, very wonderful, wonderful. Of course, Adler's save was also wonderful. The attack and defense made people excited. This is European football, this is high-level football, it is so exciting!" CCTV commentator Zhang Lu sincerely praised.
"Corner kick! The Russian national team won the corner kick, but the German national team could not relax!" said the commentator of the German National Sports TV station. Although in their hearts, it should be fine for the German national team to win this game, they cannot ignore Russia's offense.
The Russian Tsar immediately ran to the other side of the stadium because he would take the penalty for this corner kick. At this time, Russian central defender Ignashevich rushed up.
The German national team still attaches great importance to this corner kick of the Russian national team, and even the big man Gong Zheng returned to his own penalty area to defend.
Russian Tsar Al Shavin looked up and observed the situation in the penalty area. Then Al Shavin raised his right hand and signaled that he was going to get the ball. The penalty area became chaotic. The players of both sides began to run in the penalty area and disrupted the defense.
At this moment, Al Shawen, who was running quickly, suddenly stepped up and grabbed the ball into the penalty area. It was a right-footed ball. The ball quickly flew into the penalty area. The players of the German national team were extremely nervous and the ball crossed the front point.
In the stands, the fans of the Russian national team suddenly bounced up from the seat. At this time, Ignashevich, who had been circled around the penalty area, jumped high and shook his head against the ball.
"Ignashevich..." The commentator of Russian State Sports TV howled wildly.
"Bang!" Ignashevich's head jumped high and slammed the ball hard on the ball. The ball changed direction like a meteor and flew towards the German national team's goal.
The fans of the Russian national team raised their hands and cheers burst out from their mouths.
However, a figure suddenly popped up in front of the goal, lying across the air like Batman, hitting the ball out!
"Adler... It's Adler again. His performance today is simply incredible. His performance has made German fans forget Karnleman. Oh my god, it's such a good thing..." CCTV commentator Liu Jianhong cheered frantically.
"Oh my God..." Russian fans were wailing and screaming. Once God joked with them. How could they dream of doing this? Such an attack could not score a goal, which was so heartbreaking!!
"Adler...Adler...You are the best, you are the best, as great as Kahn, Rene...Rene Adler...We love you...I love you..." The fans of the German national team cheered wildly in the stands, and their words were confused!!!
Adler got up from the ground, took a deep breath, clapped his hands, and shouted at his teammates: "Be careful, don't give them such a chance. Attack, we want to attack! Now it's time to see us!"
After receiving the prompt from the goalkeeper, the German national team players immediately launched an attack. Schweinsteig dribbled the ball on the left and faced Sayanko's defense. Suddenly, the ball was pushed to the right, and the football reached the foot of the spiritual core of the German national team, Michel Barack, who took two steps and then shook the ball away and directly shot 30 meters long!
Michel Barak's heavy artillery long-range shot was already famous, but now he has the chance, of course he has to take a kick.
Mishael Barak's long-range shot is still a good match. This long-range shot is very powerful. Russian national team goalkeeper Akinfeyev dared not be careless and jumped out to lift the ball out.
There was applause from Westfaren Stadium. Of course, the fans of the German national team did not applaud Akinfeyev's wonderful save, but applause from Michel Barak's long shot.
"Concentrate! Hell! Don't let the Germans shoot so easily!" The young goalkeeper of the Russian national team Akinfeyev immediately jumped up from the ground and shouted loudly to the team's defenders. Just now, the German Michel Barak shook easily and got a chance to shoot a long shot, while the Russian national team defender did not come up to block the shot, which made Akinfeyev look very angry.
Russian central defender Ignashevich waved his hand and signaled that it was his responsibility. He shouted at the goalkeeper, "There will not be another time!"
The German national team's full-back Ram ran up and stood in the corner kick area. He was preparing to serve the corner kick. The two central defenders of the German national team, Mertsacker and Westerman, also got into the Russian national team's penalty area and were preparing to compete for the corner kick. Ignashevich, who had just apologized to the goalkeeper, quickly came up and hugged Mertsacker.
The Russian national team is very nervous now. German players are already tall and big, and they all have excellent headers and have very high corner kick goals. Moreover, there is a super bomber in their team, which makes the Russian national team players very nervous. Almost all of their players are going to enter the penalty area.
Ram stood at the corner flag point, and he suddenly noticed that the German national team's center Gong Zheng actually pinched the position and squeezed the Russian central defender V Berezusky who was defending him, and the main force of the Russian player in front of Gong Zheng was on Westman in front of him.
One or two in front of the column, he quickly assisted and drove the corner kick out. He found this point of Gong Zheng. The landing point was very accurate, as if he had measured it. Gong Zheng jumped high in the penalty area, took off calmly, and made the action of a lion shaking his head to attack the goal.
Russian national team goalkeeper Akinfeyev immediately flew to the football but did not pounce.
The Russian national team fans in the stands were shocked. When they saw the football slightly swaying from the crossbar, their hearts fell slightly when they reached their throats.
"Gong! Gong Zheng's header! It's very threatening. It's really unimaginable that the Russian national team's defense players actually made Gong Zheng jump so easily to compete for the top. Is it so unremarkable in the eyes of Russians? The defense of the Russian national team's defenders was really a big loss of standard!" CCTV football commentator Zhang Lu made severe criticism of the Russian national team's defense.
"It's no wonder the Dutch are so angry." Liu Jianhong said with a smile.
In the camera, the head coach of the Russian national team, Dutchman Hiddink, waved his hand on the sidelines in anger and shouted at the field. There was no need to guess what the magic coach was saying. They also knew that they must have criticized the team's defense problems with Gong Zheng just now.
This header didn't make the goal, and Gong Zheng seemed a little dissatisfied. He tapped the grass with a vague look and looked at the goal of the Russian national team unwillingly. Next time, he wouldn't be so lucky!
When Gong Zheng headed the ball, the head coach of the German national team, Löw, had already jumped up and was preparing to celebrate the goal. However, seeing the football slightly higher than the crossbar, he waved his hand regretfully, and the sad expression on his face was really ugly.
This time, the defense of the Russian national team is indeed very problematic. Perhaps the corner kick of the German national team put too much pressure on the Russians, which made them lose sight of each other.
The Russians calmed down and pushed their spirits into the attack, but the football was cut off by the German national team midfielder Michel Barak.
Michel Barak, who cut the ball, wanted to launch a quick counterattack directly. However, the midfielder of the Russian national team, Xie Mak, counterattacked in time, so he had to pass the football back to find a second offensive opportunity.
The German national team players were continuously dispatching the Russian national team players in the backcourt. Suddenly, the German national team's central defender Mertesak made a pass and sent the ball to the feet of Michel Barak in front.
Just as Michel Barak was about to get the ball, the Russian national team's Shemak immediately rushed up from behind, trying to stick to Michel Barak without giving him a chance to turn around. However, Michel Barak seemed to have eyes on his head. Just when Smak was about to be put on, Michel Barak immediately used his instep to move the ball outward. The football changed slightly and rolled behind him. Michel Barak turned around in the same time, and the ball passed by and bypassed the rushing Shemak.
"Oh, Barack's beautiful man scored the ball, he had already shaken Xiemak faint. Barack is really not old!!" Liu Jianhong exclaimed.
After the man ball passed by Shemak, Michel Barak immediately made a direct pass, and the football rolled directly to Gong Zheng, who was holding back against the Russian central defender Ignashevich. Gong Zheng used his strong body to resist the Russian central defender, stepped on the football under his feet, and kept shaking his body from side to side, looking for an opportunity to turn around.
At this time, the Russian central defender Ignashevich, behind Gong Zheng, was completely focused on Gong Zheng, and he didn't notice the situation around him at all.
At this moment, Gong Zheng, who was shaking his body left and right, suddenly gently rolled the ball horizontally, and the football slightly rolled out about 30 centimeters. Another striker of the German national team, Podolsky, inserted the ball from behind like lightning, and intercepted the ball from Gong Zheng, and also cut the ball from the gap between the Russian national team's full-back and central defender Ignashevich, and penetrated directly into the penalty area of the Russian national team.
"Wow!!" An incredible scream immediately sounded in the Westfaren Stadium.
The Russian national team's defensive players changed their faces and looked horrified. The Russian national team's goalkeeper Akinfeyev rushed into the corner and prepared to block Podolsky's shooting angle.
The German striker Podolsky, who intercepted the ball through the gap, didn't even look at the position of the Russian goalkeeper. He also guessed that Akinfeyev would quickly pounce into the corner. Therefore, Podolsky, who caught up with the football, did not look up at all, and directly waved his legs and pulled hard towards the football.
"Bang!"
A loud bang broke through the sky, and the football drawn by Podolsky rushed straight into the far corner of the Russian national team goal like lightning.
Chapter completed!
