I am Quaresma

"Ricardo, happy birthday!"

The teammates surrounded Quaresma in the middle, smiled and applauded, and then stepped forward to hug Quaresma.

Quaresma was stunned, completely bewildered by this wave of actions by his teammates.

The ignorant expression was caught by the camera, and in the eyes of all the fans, they couldn't help laughing.

Today is my birthday?

Although he inherited the memory of Quaresma's predecessor, it was impossible for him to remember something as trivial as his birthday, so he didn't even know that today was his birthday.

He didn't remember, but his teammates remembered!

Now, all teammates are by Quaresma's side, sincerely wishing him a happy birthday, this feeling makes Quaresma want to cry.

Van Persie put his arms around Quaresma, smiling so happily.

"Do you really think I'm crazy? Haha!"

Quaresma held back tears as he punched Van Persie.

"Damn, I thought you were going crazy! Asshole!"

It turned out that Van Persie's rude attitude towards himself before was completely intentional, affecting his emotions, and then he reversed it and gave himself a big surprise.

The hugs from his teammates made Quaresma feel extremely warm. This feeling was wonderful and intoxicated.

"Go, take a penalty! This is our birthday present for you!"

Van Persie blinked and pushed Quaresma towards the penalty spot.

Quaresma was stunned, no wonder Van Persie had a chance to shoot but never kicked, as if waiting for the opponent to foul. It turned out to be a penalty kick for himself.

You are really working hard!

But how did Quaresma think that Robin van Persie was afraid of spitting out his own cake, so he was determined not to shoot, and creating a penalty for himself was just a matter of course.

Well, with the good intentions of my teammates, I can't take the belly of a gentleman too much with the heart of a villain.

stand on the penalty spot,

Looking back at his teammates who were still smiling, Quaresma felt empowered.

He never took a penalty kick, and even practiced very little. In his previous life, he always felt that a penalty kick was not that great, at least it was easier than an ordinary goal.

But now standing at the penalty spot, Quaresma suddenly realized he was wrong.

It may seem easy to kick the ball into goal from the penalty spot, but you have to know how much pressure a player can take to stand here.

Penalty kicks may not be a technical competition, but a game of will.

If it's just the icing on the cake, it's nothing, but if it's directly related to the team's victory or defeat, the penalty kick is absolutely crucial.

If you can stand up and have the courage to bear the pressure, that person must have a big heart.

......

"Pick up!"

"Arsenal got a penalty!"

"The referee's penalty is very wise, the Ajax defender kicked Van Persie! The penalty is no problem!"

The voice of the commentator broadcasting the game was already extremely excited.

"Henry is not there, who will be the one who takes the penalty?"

"Hey, why did Van Persie run outside the penalty area with the ball in his arms?"

"He shoved the ball into Quaresma's arms. Does this mean that the penalty was given to Quaresma?"

"The rest of the Arsenal players also ran over, and although we couldn't hear what they were saying, the players surrounded Quaresma in the middle. Why?"

"I'm afraid this will become the focus of this game after the game. Let's continue to pay attention to the game first. I think the media will give us the answer after the game!"

"Quaresma put the ball on the penalty spot and stepped back slowly. It seems that Quaresma really has to take the penalty kick!"

"The Ajax goalkeeper is standing in front of the door, ready to go, we can see his expression is very serious!"

"How will Quaresma take the penalty?"

"He's not one to follow the rules!"

"Pick up the ball and then barb?"

"Lay on the ground and slam the ball into the goal with your head?"

"Or use the outer instep that he is best at?"

"Okay, no kidding!"

"Quaresma is on, run!"

"Oh my God! The ball went in, Quaresma pushed the bottom left corner and fooled the Ajax goalkeeper!"

"How could he choose such an ordinary shot?"

......

The narrator may be full of resentment.

But the fans don't care whether the penalty kicks are beautiful or not. The penalty kicks are scored, they are ahead, that's enough, so they are all cheering and excited.

Quaresma is not stupid. He has never practiced penalty kicks. If he uses his outer instep rashly, he may be surprised, but he is more likely to kick the ball out of the goal range, so he should honestly score the ball. stronger than anything.

After scoring the goal, Quaresma rushed directly into the group of teammates, and everyone hugged and celebrated together.

For the first time, Quaresma felt like the one being cared for.

All along, Quaresma has been leading the team more often. Whether at Porto or at Arsenal, teammates seem to be less able to keep up with Quaresma's rhythm.

But this time, his teammates gave him the penalty to help him celebrate his birthday. This experience made him feel that he didn't need to be so tired, because he had teammates around him to rely on, and maybe sometimes they were not so reliable. , but everyone has their own shining points, which burst out and are still bright.

Well, thanks!

Bros!

I am very satisfied with your gift!

Thanks!

......

In the second half, Arsenal took the lead. Halfway through the time, Ajax, who were playing at home, still had a chance to tie the game. They would not release water because of Quaresma's birthday, which has nothing to do with them.

The home team launched a fierce attack against Arsenal's position. Arsenal had to retreat in formation and gather in midfield to defend.

In the 77th minute of the second half, Babel also imitated Quaresma to cut inward from the flank.

A minute later, the corner kick taken by Galasek was grabbed by Vermaelen. Unfortunately, the Ajax central defender did not control the angle of the header, and the ball was received by Lehmann.

In the 83rd minute, Ajax's offense advanced layer by layer and hit outside the Arsenal penalty area. Lindbergh's vigorous strike missed the goal again, and it was a little short of breaking the Arsenal goal.

During this period of time, Arsenal have been a little passive on the field, but this will not prevent them from playing sharp counterattacks.

In the 85th minute, Ashley Cole stole the ball and then made a long pass. The ball hit Ljungberg on the right, and the Swedish fast horse ran towards Ajax half-court like no one else.

After encountering the defense, Ljungberg sent the ball to Reyes' feet. The Spanish teenager continued to dash in the ribs, but suddenly pulled the ball back and knocked across the middle.

There, Robin van Persie took away the defense, Quaresma inserted, there was no defense at all, and the ball was easily pushed into the Ajax goal, winning the game with a brace.
