Fox in the Penalty Area

Latest URL: "Janus—"

"Edman!!"

Accompanied by the roar of the German commentator, the young high center forward of the Ruhr Rhein threw the football at the goal of the Madrid Pirates!

The pirates fans in the stands exclaimed.

And the Ruhr Rhein fans couldn't wait to send out their cheers.

pity……

"It's dangerous!!" He Feng was so startled that his heart stopped for a second—not an exaggeration at all, it really stopped for a second. "Edman's header went slightly over the bar!"

"Hoo-!" A sound similar to a collective exhalation sounded in the Pirate Park stadium.

Edman put his head in his hands and stared wide-eyed. He couldn't believe that his perfect header could hit high...

However, he only made such a move, and soon his mood returned to normal, and he turned and ran back.

He knows that the game is not over yet, and now is not the time to worry about gains and losses.

"During this period, the Ruhr-Rhein's offensive was very strong, and the pirates who fought at home were mostly on the defensive..." He Feng's tone was solemn, and everyone could hear the faint worry behind it.

The Madrid Pirates, who had an advantage in the first half, were suppressed by Ruhrlein after conceding a goal in the second half.

The morale of Ruhr Rhein, who equalized the score, was greatly boosted, and then took advantage of the momentum of the goal to continuously attack the Madrid Pirates' defense.

Edman's header just now is just a microcosm of Ruhr Rhine's fierce offensive during this period.

Unlike the blue and white Munich, which has a stable playing style, the Ruhr Rhein is a very aggressive team, and "passion" is their label.

On the one hand, this is caused by their football culture, and on the other hand, it is also determined by their staffing.

Passion requires physical support, so the average age of players on Ruhr Rhein is younger, and young players will of course be able to run better than older players.

In fact, in the first half of this Champions League group match, Ruhr Rhine followed their usual tactics to deal with the pirates, trying to seize the initiative by using high-position pressing.

But the performance of the Madrid Pirates at home was more stable,

Coupled with the advantages in overall strength, their pass control restrained Ruhr Rhine's high-position press.

So in the first half Ruhr Rhine played very badly, and finally conceded a goal, which led to the score behind.

During the intermission, Ruhr Rhein coach Kuhn decisively adjusted his strategy and chose a more pragmatic defensive counterattack.

The effect was immediate. Ruhrlein not only stabilized the defense, but also used a counterattack to score a goal for the Madrid Pirates to equalize the score.

But this does not mean that Ruhr Rhine will always defend and counterattack.

Everything is in flux, and so is football.

In a game, the tactics adopted by both sides will also be constantly adjusted as the game situation changes.

For example, now, after the equalizer, the head coach of the Ruhr Rhein, Kuhn, waved his hand and resumed the high-position press.

It is hoped to take advantage of the morale-boosting opportunity to oppress the Madrid Pirates and force them to make mistakes, thereby creating more scoring opportunities.

Although Edman's goal was missed, it can be seen that their thinking was correct. If this continues, the goal will definitely not be far away.

This is indeed the case. After Edman failed to score a header this time, Ruhr Rhine's offensive became more and more violent.

Instead, the Madrid Pirates played a defensive counterattack.

Direct long passes from the backcourt to the frontcourt to find Hou Lai and Di Kunzo, or long passes to the wing to find Tonini and Silviglio who advanced forward, are the basic operations of the pirates during this period.

"Don't lose the ball again..." Han Shuyu looked at the game below from the stands, and said to himself worriedly.

During this time, the Ruhr Rhine clearly had the upper hand, and the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands were also slightly silent.

So Han Shuyu also reduced the number of times he kept talking to himself in front of the camera, completely immersed in the game, and didn't bother to record the video.

She may not have realized that as a King Madrid fan, she shouldn't have such thoughts.

After all, Hu Lai has scored goals in this Champions League group match, so what does it matter if the Pirates lose or win a Kings fan?

Hadn't she thought of that before?

But now she is worried that the Madrid Pirates may lose the game.

Janus Edman tried a long shot from outside the penalty area this time. The football was blocked by central defender Aman Tegui with his body and bounced to the outside of the penalty area.

Juan Ramirez headed ahead of Sete and took the ball off to his midfield partner, Joaquin Vela.

After Bella received the ball, he looked up and saw that Hu Lai was going forward, so he chose to make a long pass to find Hu Lai.

At this time, Ruhr Rhine has been pressing at a high position, their defense line is very high, and there are a lot of empty spaces in the frontcourt. If the football can be accurately sent to Hu Lai's feet, it may form a fatal single-handed fight!

Ruhr Rhine scored the goal of the Madrid Pirates with a counterattack, and they have to fight back in their own way!

"This is the Pirates' counterattack!"

The fans of the home team in the stands of the Pirate Park Stadium cheered collectively, regardless of whether the attack can be completed in the end...

Following the football was Hu Lai, who was at the front. He looked up at the football, and the ball flew over his head, and he tried his best to catch up.

But this opportunity is actually not good, because Ruhr Rhein's goalkeeper Koenigs also decisively abandoned the goal.

In such a situation, the goalkeeper has a greater advantage. After all, the football flies in the direction of the goalkeeper, and Koenigs and the football are moving in opposite directions.

He has the potential to get the ball before Holly...

Though where he hits the ball probably won't be in the paint.

But what does that matter?

Although the rules stipulate that the goalkeeper cannot control the ball with his hands when he is out of the penalty area, Koenigs only needs to jump up and push the football out of the baseline with his head to end the slightly hasty counterattack of the Madrid Pirates.

Even so, Hu Lai did not give up, he still gritted his teeth and rushed to the football landing point, even if it seemed destined to be a futile rush...

Koenigs sprinted beyond the penalty area line, and the football landed with it, then bounced high.

Hu Lai hit at the same time and stretched out his foot to kick the football!

Koenigs put his hands behind his back to prevent himself from accidentally touching the ball. He leaps forward, ready to head the football towards the sideline...

But he missed the ball!

Because just after he jumped up, Hu Lai, who stretched out his foot to kick the football, reached the ball before him!

It's just because enough is too reluctant, Hu Lai didn't pick the football past the goalkeeper Koenigs, and didn't even pick it towards the goal, but... hooked it back!

The football flew from above his own head behind him!

Ruhr Rhine central defender Noah Baumann, who had already chased after him, slammed on the brakes and tried to steal the ball.

Hu Lai had also turned around and saw that Bowman was jumping towards the football. He didn't care about anything else, stretched out his foot and picked the football up, and picked Bowman!

But he also picked the football farther from the goal...

The goalkeeper Koenigs, who had just missed the air, did not continue to stay outside the penalty area, he turned around and ran towards the goal.

Anyway, the alarm was lowered by one level, thanks to the captain who returned to the defense, entangled Hu Lai, now he can't directly threaten the goal...

When he jumped up to head the ball just now, but found that he didn't hit anything, Koenigs was really frightened into a cold sweat, for fear that Hu Lai would pick the football directly from him to the goal.

Fortunately, this scene did not happen.

While running to the door, Koenigs didn't forget to look back, wanting to see what's going on now.

He saw that Hu Lai was still facing away from him, looking up at the football in the air.

Hou Lai looked up at the football in the air. He just picked the ball over Bowman's head, but the fast break of the Madrid Pirates seemed to be a failure. He is getting farther and farther away from the goal, and his back is still facing the attacking direction... Perhaps the correct approach at this time should be to find a way to control the football first, and then wait for the teammates to press up.

But Hu Lai didn't want to do this, because he thought that the opponent's goalkeeper had just rushed out of the penalty area, and he shouldn't have returned to the goal so quickly at this time... Doesn't this mean that Ruhrlein is empty? !

Instead of stopping the football and waiting for teammates, it's better... to take a gamble!

Looking at the football still in the air, Hu Lai had an idea in his heart. He raised his arms and exerted force on his feet, driving his body to jump into the air!

Bowman, who had been picked off, was about to rush up and stick behind Hu Lai, preventing him from turning around, when he saw Hu Lai flying into the air!

He couldn't help but widen his eyes, opened his mouth, and his head kept rising with Hu Lai's body.

He witnessed what happened next at the nearest place:

Hu Lai, who rose into the air, pressed his left foot down as a lever, and pressed his right leg up!

Then he hit the...football in the air with the instep!

Boom!

From here, the football draws a high parabola, as if it has built a bridge leading to the other shore in the air!

Bowman stood on the ground, raised his head, turned his neck backwards with the football, and then turned his body along with it. His eyes were firmly locked on the football. He wanted to see where the ball would end up...

Goalkeeper Koenigs, who was concentrating on running towards the goal, suddenly heard a huge cheer from the stands, which made his heart jump with fear.

He has already run near the penalty spot, very close to the goal, did any accident happen at this time?

In his haste, before he could look back, he saw in his field of vision, a football falling from the sky and falling towards the... goal in front of him!

What's happening here? !

Why is football here? !

Koenigs is completely helpless with the ball, he is still far from the goal, and now he can only watch the football fall into the empty goal in front of him with wide eyes!

The ball bounces off the ground, crosses the goal line, gets caught in the net, loses momentum, and falls to the ground.

And Koenigs himself lost all his strength and slid to his knees!

what did he see !

Is this... a miracle? !

The cheers at the Pirate Park Stadium reached its peak at this moment, as if a divine punishment, a thunderbolt hit the goal of the Ruhr Rhein!

boom!
