"Chen is the best. You just need to let him play and give him a ball, and he can create everything for you. I will always miss that time, especially when I worked with Chen. If there is no perfection in the world, then he is the closest person to perfection."

Many years later, when a reporter interviewed the retired Leeson about his experience in the Asian Cup, Leeson, whose hair had already turned gray, said to the reporter with a smile on his face.

……

South Korea, football live broadcast room on the Internet channel.

Silence - after Chen Huan scored a goal with the Crescent Moon Scimitar from a long distance, the South Korean anchor had not spoken for a long time.

After about three or four minutes of silence in the live broadcast room, he managed to force a smile. He reached out to adjust his glasses and touched his silver-white hair.

"Haha, luck... Chen Huan is lucky"

"This shot was just a guess by him, it doesn't matter, hahaha, who can't score a long shot?"

……

Far away, in the villa area, there was laughter in a single-family villa.

Chen's mother asked with a smile:"If Xiao Huan scores a goal, do we win?"

This busy woman didn't know much about football. She simply thought that if her son scored a goal, then the game should be won.

"Aunt, my cousin has tied the score. The Dragon Country team must score another goal before the end of the game, otherwise it will go into overtime."

……

The head coach of the Uzbek team also made urgent personnel adjustments.

Jeparov, Tursunov and Muraganov were substituted, and they were replaced by defensive midfielder Hasainov, forward Rashidov and central defender Tutahugayev.

"Drag it into overtime!"The head coach of the Uzbekistan team shouted to the players on the field:"We have practiced penalty shootouts, we are not afraid of them in penalties!"

The players of the Uzbekistan team on the field nodded one after another

……

The Uzbek team kicked off near the center circle. This time, they did not kick the ball far away as they did before. Instead, they controlled the ball under their feet.

Their formation also changed. The new striker Rashidov took the position of shadow striker. It was obvious that the head coach wanted to contain the midfield and backcourt of Longguo by adding a striker with abundant physical strength.

The game soon entered overtime, during which Longguo got the ball three times, but they did not shoot the ball in these three times.

The defense of the Uzbek team performed like an iron gate.

……

In front of the bench, Longguo head coach Li Sen was discussing with his coaching team how to make personnel adjustments after entering overtime.

"Maybe we should let Wang try, he's very fast……"Leeson stopped talking halfway, and the next moment he stood up and rushed to the side of the court.

Behind him, the other members of the coaching staff and the players on the bench also rushed to the side of the court.

Because just three seconds ago, Chen Huan completed a man-ball split in the middle and forced overtake the opponent's defensive midfielder Hasanov who had just come on the court.

At this moment, Chen Huan raised his head and dribbled the ball. Facing the defensive player in front of him, Kapadze, he cleverly stepped on the bicycle kick, and then forced his way to the side.

"Leave it to me, you go to the middle!" Full-back Izmailov rushed over.

Kapadze stepped back to protect his own middle.

Chen Huan dribbled the ball towards Izmailov. He did not make a fake move, but stared at Izmailov's shoulder.

The change of the shoulder can indicate the change of a person's center of gravity.

Chen Huan suddenly lowered his left shoulder and pushed the ground with his feet. Izmailov immediately followed, but the next moment Chen Huan broke through in the opposite direction and passed Izmailov.

"Damn……"Izmailov instinctively reached out and grabbed Chen Huan's collar.

Before Chen Huan fell to the ground, he kicked a low shot into the near corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Nesterov, who had already moved over, was highly focused. He immediately flew to block the ball and actually blocked it at the critical moment.

The football did not fly out of the baseline, but bounced into the penalty area.

The Uzbekistani defender rushed to the landing point of the football, but a tall figure held up an Uzbekistani defender who was closest to the landing point of the football.

……

"Liang Dai, make a supplementary shot into the empty goal!"

In the Longguo Sports Channel, Xiao Zhan and Coach Zhang all stood up and stared at the big screen.

Liang Dai swung his leg to shoot, but the next moment, the opponent's central defender Sholakhmedov rushed over and pushed Liang Dai to the ground without any disguise.

"Foul!" Xiao Zhan yelled.

In the picture, the referee did not hesitate at all and blew the whistle immediately.

He rushed to the penalty area while making a penalty gesture.

Sholakhmedov did not want to explain anything. He lowered his head and hugged his teammates. As expected, he got a red card and walked to the sidelines.

When passing by Chen Huan, Sholakhmedov squeezed out a smile,"Chen, you are very good, but I have to do this for the team."

Chen Huan nodded to him gently.

He could also understand Sholakhmedov's choice. If Liang Dai was allowed to shoot when the goalkeeper had fallen to the ground and it was difficult to save the ball, the probability of scoring would be infinitely close to 100%.

Choosing to use a foul to destroy this 100% chance and give the goalkeeper a 1V1 penalty opportunity, the probability of saving the ball will at least not be close to 0. The first penalty taker in the Longguo team is Zheng Jun. The captain of the Longguo team picked up the ball and came to the penalty spot. He put the ball on the white dot and then turned and waved to Chen Huan.

"Xiao Huan, you take the penalty kick."

Chen Huan was stunned. On the day of the Spring Festival, countless people from all over Longguo were watching the game. This was an opportunity to show off.

But now, Zheng Jun wanted to give this opportunity to him.

"It doesn't matter if you miss the shot, you take the penalty, I believe you!" Zheng Jun said with a smile

""Okay." Chen Huan did not refuse and walked to the penalty spot.

He knew what the old captain meant.

The goalkeeper of the Uzbekistan team made a provocative gesture to Chen Huan. Chen Huan ignored his gesture and concentrated on adjusting his breathing and physical condition.

Then he raised his head and looked at Nesterov. The next second, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up into a smile.

……

"Zheng Jun gave the chance to take the penalty kick to Chen Huan."

In Longguo TV, Zhan Jun's voice trembled slightly.

"There is only a little over a minute left in the overtime. As long as this penalty kick goes in, our chances of advancing to the knockout round will reach 90%. If not, the two teams will go into overtime."

"Chen Huan stepped back and gestured to the referee, who blew the whistle."

"Chen Huan took a run-up, looked up at the goalkeeper, and adjusted his pace.
