Chapter 56 Is it really higher than the crossbar?

The game time is getting shorter and shorter. Cristiano Ronaldo, who has already contributed two goals in this game, feels that he is very likely to score a hat trick, and then personally lead Real Madrid to reverse Juventus and advance to the Champions League final this season!

Cristiano Ronaldo has always cared about the support from the outside world and is used to the praise of himself from the outside media, so he really hopes to have a final word when Real Madrid's life and death are at stake.

Many times the idea is good, and it is good to be confident, but Cristiano Ronaldo, who was eager to make achievements, pursued power too much, so that the football flew up but failed to fall in time. His direct free kick ended up high over the crossbar. end.

Tang Zheng shook his head and sighed. It is undeniable that Cristiano Ronaldo is a talented and hard-working professional player. Unfortunately, he is prone to making mistakes sometimes.

Of course, this sentence must be enclosed in double quotation marks.

Confidence is a good thing, but overconfidence is arrogance.

Time passed by second by second, and the time left for Real Madrid was getting less and less. As Tang Zheng was jogging back, he was thinking that if there was another chance to get a direct free kick, he would not give it up again.

Cristiano Ronaldo feels that he is in excellent condition, so why not Tang Zheng?

Juventus goalkeeper Buffon was asking the ball boy on the sidelines for the ball. The on-site director was afraid that there would be no chaos in the world and showed the scene where Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo appeared to be competing for the right to take the free kick.

Central 5 commentator He Wei thought of the previous 'exchange' and frowned: "This... is not good news for Real Madrid. Cristiano Ronaldo asked Tang Zheng for a free kick for the second time in a row. The problem is that the quality of Ronaldo's two free kicks is very poor. I hope it will not affect the relationship between Tang Zheng and Ronaldo on and off the field."

British Sky commentator Andy Gray shook his head and said: "Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice in this game. He is in good condition and has smooth footwork. However, judging from the two free kicks he took, it seems that he did not reach the personal level." In the best state...perhaps, it might be more reasonable to have Tang take the penalty."

As soon as he finished speaking, guest commentator Martin Taylor nodded lightly and said: "Indeed, Tang is the player with the highest free kick conversion rate in Europe this season, so it is more reasonable for Tang to take the kick. It's just that the two of them seemed a little emotional in this scene. I hope Cristiano Ronaldo can overcome his overconfidence when Real Madrid takes a free kick in the frontcourt next time. After all, the game time is getting shorter and shorter, and there is not much time left for Real Madrid..."

Portuguese National Sports TV commentator Fernando criticized Tang Zheng's approach: "Cristiano Ronaldo contributed three goals in the two rounds of the Champions League semi-finals and was in surprisingly good condition. The two outrageous direct free kicks were not Cristiano Ronaldo's. Ronaldo had a bad foot, but Don’s way of asking for the ball affected Cristiano Ronaldo’s mood, so that all of Cristiano Ronaldo’s direct free kicks went over the crossbar.”

The father-in-law is right, the mother-in-law is right, but Tang Zheng is not upset about Cristiano Ronaldo's continuous requests for free kicks. He is now eager to find a way to break the Juventus goal.

Because... the time is coming to ninety minutes soon.

If there is no way to score a goal, it may really be just a hair’s breadth away.

Miracles, if they happen often, are not called miracles, they are called normalcy.

※※※

’ As time gets shorter and shorter, the Juventus players are becoming more unified in their thinking.

Regardless of the frontcourt players or away players, they all want to maintain the existing score until the end of the game.

Juventus head coach Allegri has only made one adjustment so far. He plans to make the remaining two substitutions before and during injury time to disrupt Real Madrid's offensive rhythm. Effect.

However, at this moment, Isco once again got the ball in the frontcourt to show off his excellent foot skills.

While Vidal was fighting and retreating, Isco was thrown off his center of gravity. He could only stretch out his foot to trip Isco.

Since Vidal himself had already received a yellow card, the Real Madrid players seemed very excited and put enough pressure on the referee Atkinson, hoping that Atkinson would show the yellow card.

The Juventus players immediately pushed Vidal away from the scene of the incident and at the same time begged the referee Atkinson for mercy.

In the past two seconds or so, Atkin seemed to have carefully considered it and did not show Vidal a yellow card, but only gave a verbal warning.

Seeing this, Juventus coach Allegri breathed a sigh of relief.

If Vidal accumulates yellow cards and is sent off at this time, then the next game will be dangerous...

Vidal is both offensive and defensive, and he is the kind of player who can inspire his teammates through personal efforts. Staying on the court can have unexpected effects.

Fortunately, fortunately!

"Uuuuuu——"

The Real Madrid fans in the stands were very unhappy with the referee Atkinson and made deafening boos.

It wasn't until the referee Atkinson's penalty was settled that the fans' attention shifted, and the on-site director also switched the camera - Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, who were standing in front of the spot where Vidal committed the foul, both wanted to The meaning of the penalty kick is different.

Central 5 commentator He Wei looked at the scene shown on the broadcast screen and frowned: "Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo both seemed to want to take this direct free kick. To be fair, Cristiano Ronaldo's two attempts were all over the crossbar. Logically speaking, it should be Tang Zheng's turn, because since Tang Zheng joined Real Madrid, the two have taken turns taking penalty kicks. Counting the previous direct free kicks, today is the first time Tang Zheng has allowed Ronaldo to take three free kicks. We have a saying. As the old saying goes, there are only three things that can go wrong, Ronaldo should be more humble and leave the opportunity to Tang Zheng..."

At the same time, British Sky commentator Andy Gray also said: "Cristiano Ronaldo and Liang Xu's two direct free kicks went over the crossbar, so this direct free kick should be taken by Tang Lai. I don't know." Why does he still want to play? It is undeniable that he is in good condition, but I believe in the data..."

"That's right!" Commentator Martin Taylor said solemnly: "Because data can't lie!"

The distance given by the broadcaster is 32 meters, which is biased towards the left rib of Real Madrid's attack, which is very suitable for right-footed players to take the penalty.

Although the distance is further than the previous two free kicks, it is more suitable for an elevator kick, and it is understandable why Cristiano Ronaldo wants to kick it so much.

A hat trick leads Real Madrid to a huge comeback. This is a result that no one would not pursue, especially for a player of Cristiano Ronaldo's caliber, it is not to be missed.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was elected to the Ballon d'Or, has been questioned by many media because in the past 2013-2014 season, Cristiano Ronaldo's club contribution was not as good as Tang Zheng's, and in 2014, the selection year, at the national team level His contribution is not as good as that of Tang Zheng.

Therefore, being selected for the FIFA Ballon d'Or under this background is extremely controversial.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo is unwilling to admit that he is worse than Tang Zheng, many times the fact is the fact.

The relationship between them exposed to the sun is indeed good friends, but in the final analysis, the two have a direct competitive relationship.

In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo is already thirty and is approaching the end of his career. He wants to leave his own glorious years in his limited career.

So Cristiano Ronaldo wants to express himself and prove that he is the best in the world!

Since the two have a competitive relationship, Tang Zheng is naturally not willing to give up to Cristiano Ronaldo, otherwise he would not have been able to transform from an intern in the River Plate youth team to the current world football superstar.

If it were normal, Cristiano Ronaldo could take half a step back if he was easy to talk to, but the problem is that Cristiano Ronaldo went back on his words. He had promised to leave the next opportunity to himself, but now he has to fight for the right to take free kicks. So Tang Zheng also got angry.

"No! As I said just now, I'll kick the ball!"

Tang Zheng was condescending and looked directly into Cristiano Ronaldo's eyes.

Cristiano Ronaldo didn't expect that Tang Zheng would be so direct. He was stunned, then spread his hands and said, "Just now? Did you say anything?"

"I don't care whether you said it or not, I will kick this ball."

Tang Zheng's attitude was very firm.

Modric and Toni Kroos realized that Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo seemed to be having trouble trying to get the right to take the free kick, so they pulled the two of them and acted as peacemakers.

At this time, the fans at the scene also noticed something wrong with Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, and they gradually had a bad feeling in their hearts.

"Luka, you say...who should take the kick?"

Tang Zheng, who was pulled back half a step, turned to look at Modric.

Suddenly, Modric's heart was filled with waves. For him to say this at this juncture was tantamount to making people take sides.

But Modric had to answer, because Tang Zheng, Cristiano Ronaldo and other teammates were watching, and time could not be delayed any longer, otherwise the entire team would be affected.

Thinking about the happy cooperation with Tang Zheng in the past two seasons, Cristiano Ronaldo is already over 30 years old, and Tang Zheng is in his prime and has several years left in his career peak. Not surprisingly, he will become the real meaning of Real Madrid top star.

In addition, Tang Zheng's free kick goal conversion rate this season ranks first in the world. Putting aside the locker room issues, Tang Zheng should also be supported from a competitive perspective.

After clearing his mind, Modric looked over and said frankly: "The data will not lie. Tang's free kick goal conversion rate is the best in the world. At this critical moment, I think it is more reasonable for Tang to take the penalty."

When Modric said this, his tone dropped twice: "There is not much time left, and we can no longer withstand the consumption."

The implication is that I hope Cristiano Ronaldo will treat it calmly and not hold a grudge against himself.

"Tony, what do you think?" Cristiano Ronaldo seemed unwilling to give up and turned to ask Toni Kroos.

Toni Kroos’s brain was filled with thousands of thoughts and horses galloping past, but with Modric’s start, he had no scruples and said bluntly: “I think what Luka said is very reasonable, and the data will not lie. people."

"Okay! Okay! Okay!"

Cristiano Ronaldo threw the football in his hand to the ground and walked into the penalty area without looking back.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, Cristiano Ronaldo also knows that his fate is over.

If he were a few years younger, even two years old, he could still kick the drop ball that used to scare goalkeepers around the world.

Time is not forgiving!

However, Cristiano Ronaldo did not admit defeat. He wanted to fight with God and other professional players.

Who said things will go downhill after you reach thirty?

He wants to prove himself!

As Modric and Toni Kroos said, statistics don't lie, so Cristiano Ronaldo decided to train hard this summer to maintain the best competitive condition!

Ancelotti, who was originally influenced by Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, could only put the problem aside for the time being. The top priority was to find a solution to the team's inability to score, otherwise the team would miss the Champions League final.

Of course, Ancelotti also hopes that Tang Zheng can help the team score a goal at the last moment, but Tang Zheng is affected by Cristiano Ronaldo, and his emotional showoff is likely to be affected...

When the focus of the on-site commentary box was still on the fight between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo for the set piece, Tang Zheng had already repositioned the football at the location of the foul, then stepped back far enough, and then looked directly at the goal.

Buffon was very afraid of Tang Zheng. Even if he was more than 30 meters away from the goal, he formed a four-man wall.

Tang Zheng saw the nervous Buffon through the gap in the wall and had already thought about how to take this direct free kick.

The worries of the Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu Stadium were put aside and their attention was entirely on Tang Zheng.

The game time is getting shorter and shorter. For Real Madrid, wasting an opportunity means losing one point from the possibility of creating opportunities.

"Can Tang Zheng create a miracle?"

While Tang Zheng adjusted his mind through deep breathing, CCTV 5 commentator He Wei looked at Tang Zheng on the broadcast screen, full of expectations.

"Beep~"

The referee on duty, Atkinson, blew his whistle.

Meanwhile, the entire Bernabeu held its breath.

And there is only one focus.

Tang Zheng!

Tang Zheng looked at the direction of the door, and then took a run.

Through the gap in the human wall, Buffon saw Tang Zheng's eyes.

The eyes seem to be filled with determination to win!

"damn it!"

Buffon shook his head to get rid of unnecessary thoughts and refocused.

At this time, Tang Zheng's right foot hit the football firmly, making a crisp and muffled sound: "Boom~"

The football flew into the air due to the force, and Juventus' four-man wall jumped hard, but they failed to hit the football.

The football flying into the air did not spin at all, just like a cannonball.

Central 5 commentator He Wei's voice dropped a lot: "Will you enter?"

Buffon looked at the direction of the ball and subconsciously moved his feet towards the right side of his body. However, he did not rush to make a save because past game experience told him that Tang Zheng's free kick was likely to go over the crossbar...
