Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 223 Devastated

Latest website:

When Kamara threw herself into Hulay's arms and the two hugged each other tightly, Ramirez in the stands also hugged his teammates.

They all know the head coach's pre-game arrangement: offense + high pressure.

We all play football and we all know the risks of doing so.

But when everyone was training, no one questioned the head coach's arrangement.

This is not only out of their trust in head coach Parotti, but also out of trust in Hulay.

In their view, Parotti's tactics were tailor-made for Hu Lai.

The high pressure combined with Hulay's strong ability to seize opportunities, plus the Catalan United should not have expected that the Madrid Pirates would press high.

This can give the opponent a head-on blow at the beginning.

Now it is indeed so.

Hu Lai scored the first goal in the 13th minute.

In the 19th minute of the opening, Hulay's header caused Schulman to make a save, giving Kamara a chance to make a supplementary shot. The Madrid Pirates scored another victory!

They're off to a great start!

In comparison, Catalonia United had a "start from hell".

Catalonia, which wanted to settle all its old and new grudges in the Champions League final, never expected that it would concede two goals in a row so easily...

"Don't be discouraged! Don't be discouraged! The game has just begun! Keep the pace! We still have a chance!"

Kabangka loudly encouraged his teammates.

But no one knows how effective his encouragement is.

Under the impact of just losing the ball, many people may not have heard his shout at all...

Catalan United head coach Vicente also had a serious expression on the sidelines.

He didn't expect the Madrid Pirates' high-post press to be so aggressive.

※※※

"Okay, the game continues!"

As the referee blew his whistle, Lima turned the football and passed it back.

He is already very proficient in doing this action - can he not be proficient in it?

He has kicked off the ball three times since this game!

It’s only twenty minutes!

Lima feels like he takes more kicks than he takes shots...

He's not wrong - he's only had one shot so far, the high one, but he's kicked the ball off three times.

After this kick-off, just like before, the Madrid Pirates continued to press forward.

However, this time Catalan United did not wait for the Madrid Pirates players to rush forward. Rosas directly passed the ball diagonally to Kabangka on the right. This time, Catalan United also changed the kick-off. Strategy.

Cabangkara went to the junction of the right line and the center line, crossed the center line at the moment of the whistle, and inserted behind the Madrid Pirates defense.

Rosas was looking for him with this kick.

Kabangka received the ball on the sideline and faced Ion.

Taking advantage of his opportunity to stop the ball and adjust, Ion came up.

Kabangka made a breakthrough and did not pass the ball immediately. As a result, Tonini chased him again, forming a double defense.

Obviously, the Madrid Pirates' high-post press is not just high-post press, they also press in the low post.

Wherever there are Catalan United players, there will be Madrid Pirates players.

Seeing them running so hard and aggressively, it's hard to imagine that this is a defending team.

Their fighting spirit is like that of teams that haven’t won a championship yet…

They say defending a title is difficult.

What's the difficulty?

The problem is that the players have no fighting spirit!

They have already won the championship, why should they fight for an honor they have already won?

After all, working hard is not as simple as shouting a few slogans.

It really takes physical effort and sweat.

We must continue to train hard in training, maintain high morale at all times in games, and then persist in this way for another year.

A championship team has to sacrifice a lot of things in normal times. Everyone works together and strives for the same goal. No one can be selfish, and no one can fall behind.

This is difficult for one person to do.

Not to mention the 20 or 30 people.

But look at the performance of these Buccaneers players, they all did it.

Looking at the way they are running and pressing hard, people who don’t know better would think that this is a grassroots team that can only compete with the giants Catalonia United...

But in fact, their strength is no less than that of Catalonia United!

How terrifying would it be for a lion to do its best no matter what kind of prey it faces?

Kabangka finally chose to pass the football out. Rosas, who came up to receive the ball, stopped slightly when he stopped the ball, and the ball was almost cut off by Joaquin Vela.

Fortunately, his skills were better and he could barely control the football, but he also changed from facing the direction of the attack to facing away, which made it difficult for him to organize an offense.

In order not to lose the ball, he decisively returned the pass this time.

Catalonia originally wanted to launch a quick attack after the kick-off to penetrate the Madrid Pirates' defense.

As a result, he was forced back by the Madrid Pirates players.

※※※

Catalonia United finally broke through the siege of the Madrid Pirates in the midfield and hit the football outside the penalty area.

Before Joaquín Vela pounced on him, Kabangka quickly poked the football to Rosas next to him, and then he dodged past Vela.

At the same time, Rosas quickly passed the football to him, and the two played a one-two against the wall.

Joaquin Vela turned and chased back, but Danny Drew stepped forward to block it.

Facing the front and rear defenses, Kabangka did not stop the ball, but suddenly used a cold arrow and shot directly from a long distance!

This time he finally penetrated the Madrid Pirates' back line and hit the goal frame!

But Hewell flew sideways and flew out!

"Haywell! Beautiful save! Although he has not been threatened much since the beginning! But this save still shows his excellent competitive state! I believe this save will definitely give Madrid Pirates fans more confidence!"

Haywell, who made the save, did not complain about his teammates giving Kabangka a chance to kick. After all, Kabangka's shot was really sudden. Everyone thought he was going to stop the ball, but he shot directly. .

Hewel just raised his arms and cheered for his performance.

Although Kabangka did not score a goal after completing the shot, he shouted to his teammates: "Cheer up! We still have a chance!"

He tried to wake up his sleeping teammates with his shot.

"Kabonca is in really good shape this season. After adapting and adapting last season, he has become a well-deserved leader in Catalonia this season. Twenty-four goals in the league and 17 assists. Champions League. Eight goals and three assists so far. He is the biggest contributor to Catalonia's ability to fight to the end with Madrid Pirates in both the league and the Champions League! But it's a pity that such an outstanding person met an even better Hu... "

The TV broadcast replayed Kabangka's shot just now.

He shot directly without stopping the ball, and there was no warning before. Everyone thought that Kabangka was going to stop after all.

Outside the penalty area, without any charge adjustment, a direct shot can still produce such power, which shows how high the quality of Kabangka's shot is.

If it weren't for Hewell's concentration and extraordinary performance, the goal might have actually been scored...

"Although Kabangca threatened the Madrid Pirates goal with a long shot, Catalonia's situation did not improve. The Madrid Pirates' high pressure and pressing did not change, and the Catalan United still played very hard."

"...The game has only started for more than 20 minutes. There is definitely no physical problem on the Madrid Pirates side. They have enough physical strength to support the team to do this. Therefore, it is normal for Catalan United to be suppressed by the Madrid Pirates. Already."

"What Catalonia should do now is be patient and take advantage of them.

The strong ball control advantage fully mobilizes the Pirates players and increases their physical consumption. "

"Catalan United should appropriately shrink its defense, slow down the pace, and play simpler. Get through this period first..."

In the commentary box, commentators from all over the world are expressing their opinions on the current game and giving suggestions to Catalonia United.

Catalan United is currently two goals behind. They also hope that Catalan United can cheer up and at least get one goal back to make the game more exciting. Except for the Chinese commentator, He Feng and Yan Kang do not want this. It was an exciting game and they just wanted Madrid Pirates to win.

Judging from the scene, Catalonia is indeed at a disadvantage, and their passing and control advantage cannot be reflected in the face of the high pressure of the Madrid Pirates.

In turn, the Madrid Pirates can press high, pass and control, and can counterattack quickly from both wings.

In the 25th minute, under the high pressure of Madrid Pirates players, Catalonia United made a passing error.

When Campuzano passed the football forward to Salado in the midfield, Irazusta predicted the position and intercepted the ball before Salado.

Then Irazusta handed the football to Kamara and stepped in without the ball.

His forward movement attracted Catalan United left back Nunez Pereira, causing the opponent to hesitate for a while, not knowing whether to defend Camara or the forward Irazusta.

Fortunately, Rosas came over quickly to help him out - while running towards Camara, he waved Pereira to follow Irazusta.

Facing the thirty-five-year-old Rosas, Kamara was not polite at all. To accelerate directly, you have to overtake from the outside.

After Rosas pounced on him, he suddenly used the heel of his right foot to knock the football inward from behind, then stopped suddenly and changed direction!

Rosas turned as well.

As soon as Kamara caught up with the football, he used the outside instep of his right foot to move the football to the outside very discreetly, and then stopped and changed direction again!

This time Rosas failed to follow.

It is indeed difficult for his knees to support him in continuous changes of direction while running at high speed...

He slipped and fell to the ground.

Camara, on the other hand, strode towards the Catalan United penalty area with the ball.

Pereira, the Catalan United left back who had followed the defense before, no longer had to guard against Irazusta at this time. He dropped the Madrid Pirates right back and pounced on Camara.

Then Kamara gave the football to Irazusta on the sideline with the outside of his instep.

After the latter caught the ball, he went diagonally to the bottom!

Pereira turned around again and chased.

At the same time, Catalan United center back Joel Jimenez in the penalty area also ran to block Irazusta.

Hu Lai in the penalty area was rushing towards the goal. When he saw this scene, he immediately braked and then retreated.

The distance between himself and Paul Fortune was immediately widened.

At this moment, Irazusta passed the ball!

A ground ball inverted triangle!

The football rolled between Jimenez and Pereira who was returning to defense, and rolled towards Hulay who opened up the angle and space!

"Opportunity! Hu Lai!"

It was too late for Fortune to pounce on Hu Lai. He could only turn his head and watch Hu Lai swing his right leg to meet the ball!

Direct shot!

He tried to raise his leg to block, but the football was far behind him. The ball was not shot hard to the near corner, nor was it hit in the middle.

Hu Lai's kick was a bit strange. It looked like a shot, but the trajectory of the football looked like a cross...

Draw an arc in the air, go straight to the goal and hit the top corner!

Even though Catalonia goalkeeper Toney Schulman was in the air and made a very smooth save, there was nothing he could do about the ball.

The football flew high and was not very fast. Under everyone's gaze, it fell from the lower edge of the crossbar... into the goal!

※※※

PS, they really deserve to be the group of death!

The second half of the last two games of this game was so good!

best

script!

Although Costa Rica was eliminated, they have won the respect of the world - in fact, I still hope that they can defeat Germany and qualify with the Japanese team.

Based on Spain's performance, they really don't deserve to advance.

As for the German team, it is entirely their own fault. Modern football is changing all the time. The pass control back then could help them win the world championship, but it could not save the decline of forward weakness.

In the final analysis, football requires goals, and forwards who can score goals are still very important!

I am very happy that the German team can be eliminated. Now they can use practical actions to boycott the Qatar World Cup. If you ask for mercy, you will get mercy, and if you ask for hammer, you will get hammer. Perfect!

The Japanese team, the Japanese team is a team that makes me feel very complicated. On the one hand, their success makes me so sad, on the other hand, their performance is indeed worthy of promotion.

It’s really a plot like a hot-blooded comic...

In the death group, Shengsheng defeated the two most powerful opponents... The real "I am fighting the elites!"

Let’s talk about today’s four games.

Portugal has already qualified in the group and will definitely rotate their lineup, so it's hard to say how much they can do against South Korea. Although there is a grudge from 20 years ago, there is no need to fight with the Korean team just to avenge that grudge. What if another player is injured? You know, playing football with a stick is very dirty.

So I think South Korea should be able to beat Portugal with one goal this time.

In the match between Ghana and Uruguay, Uruguay showed its old age. As long as Ghana can win, they can qualify. They will fight hard to beat Uruguay. I'm betting on Ghana beating Uruguay by two goals.

Cameroon and Brazil. Also qualifying from the group requires lineup rotation. But Brazil's lineup is too strong, and no matter how much they rotate, their strength is still there. I think Brazil can beat Cameroon with two goals.

The last match was between Serbia and Switzerland. I think the two teams are tied
