Midfielder Ruler
Chapter 147 Penalty Shootout (It’s the World Cup final soon)
"Incredible save! Tang Zheng saved the Chinese team!"
Central 5 commentator He Wei stood up suddenly with his hands on the commentary box, raised his arms and shouted: "He first saved Quaresma's single-handed ball, and then rejected Cristiano Ronaldo's close push shot. Outside the door! It’s our patron saint! Great hero!!”
"There are many heroes in life, but at this moment, in our hearts, there is only one hero, and that is Tang Zheng!" Commentator Xu Yang was full of passion and joy in the fanatical atmosphere: "Who can believe that a person who has not accepted How can a player who has received professional goalkeeping training perform so bravely? Penalty kicks, close shots, and push shots in the penalty area, who can do it one by one? Only our hero, Tang Zheng, can do it!"
The Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV became extremely crazy in the passionate commentary of He Wei and Xu Yang, venting the great happiness brought by escaping death.
Tang Zheng first saved Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty kick, and then successively rejected Quaresma and Cristiano Ronaldo's sure-fire shots in front of the goal. What... does this mean?
It may mean that the Chinese team is not destined to die and is destined to be the semi-finals!
The older generation always believed in fate, and now they believe in it more vividly.
Otherwise...the Chinese team would have already scored a penalty kick from Cristiano Ronaldo when Yan Junling was sent off.
However, Tang Zheng, with divine help, managed to save the goal.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch -"
The fanatical atmosphere of the game became almost out of control due to Tang Zheng's successive saves. The excited Chinese fans made hysterical shouts.
Tang Zheng, who blocked Cristiano Ronaldo's sure goal, stood up suddenly with his hands on the ground in the fanatical atmosphere, raised his arms and shouted.
Even he himself didn't know why he was in such good condition and was able to save must-goals from Quaresma and Cristiano Ronaldo one after another!
In addition to the previous penalty kick, Tang Zheng has saved the Portuguese team's game-killing goal three times.
You must know that Tang Zheng has not received professional goalkeeping training, and his reactions are subconscious, which is talent.
British Sky commentator Andy Gray said mechanically: "Don is the number one player in world football today. He can pass and shoot. Unexpectedly... he can even be a goalkeeper. I really want to know... what other positions are there? Is he incompetent? Coach? No... Tang, who retired many years later, must be a very good coach! One of the best in the world!"
"Hey, old man, I agree with what you said." Commentator Martin Taylor gave a rare compliment: "This is the nicest thing I've said since I've known you."
Andy Gray did not respond to the ridicule of his old partner Martin Taylor. He continued: "I think Don has left an indelible shadow in the hearts of the Portuguese players. The game will soon enter a penalty shootout. I think... …The Chinese team has a very high chance of advancing.”
At the same time, countless commentators in the on-site commentary box were amazed at Tang Zheng's amazing performance.
After all, Tang Zheng is best at scoring goals, assists and defense. He really didn't expect that he could even be a goalkeeper, and he also accomplished such a legendary feat.
First, he saved a penalty kick, then faced Quaresma's one-on-one shot and turned it away, and finally saved Cristiano Ronaldo's close-range push.
Even the top three goalkeepers in the world may not be able to complete the save, and may even concede three goals in a row.
This shows how amazing Tang Zheng's performance was.
The World Cup stage is more important than the league, Champions League and other events.
Cristiano Ronaldo covered his mouth with his hands, still looking dull. He really didn't expect that Tang Zheng could save his inevitable shot.
Quaresma also had the same reaction. He was already ready to celebrate the goal just now.
But... Tang Zheng's long legs were so cruel that they broke Quaresma's dream.
The same goes for other Portuguese players, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Even the corner kick was forgotten.
Both the Portuguese fans at the Fisht Olympic Stadium and the Portuguese fans in front of the TV were thinking about the same question.
Is this... Tang Zheng really a guest star?
How can TM be better than the world's top goalkeeper?
There is a saying from MMP that I don’t know if I should say it right or not!
Chinese players inside and outside the penalty area ran towards Tang Zheng and high-fived him in celebration.
Tang Zheng's successful save is tantamount to scoring a goal!
Lippi, who was sent to the stands, was so excited that he burst into tears. Fortunately, he has experienced too many things in his life and has a very good ability to control his emotions and did not show his true feelings.
Assistant coaches Madaloni and Li Tie in front of the bench hugged each other excitedly. The bench players who were replaced and who did not play raised their arms and shouted in a fanatical atmosphere, venting the emotional explosion caused by Tang Zheng's two consecutive attacks.
※※※
"Ouch, ouch, ouch -"
Tang Zheng's two consecutive life-saving saves completely activated the fanatical atmosphere at Fisht Olympic Stadium, and the deafening roars came one after another.
Although overtime did not end and the penalty shootout did not come, these lovely Chinese fans seemed to have seen the future results.
The Chinese team must win!
Facing Tang Zheng in such good form, how could there be any possibility of losing?
The third minute of stoppage time came, but the referee Sandro Ricci did not blow his whistle and instead signaled the Portuguese players to take a corner kick.
The Chinese fans in the stands were very dissatisfied with this, making sporadic boos and sending them to the referee Sandro Ricci: "Woooooooo-"
It's obvious that three minutes of injury time have arrived, why hasn't the end of the game been sounded yet?
Want to give Portugal a chance to score?
At the same time, Central 5 commentator He Wei also expressed dissatisfaction with the referee Sandro Ricci: "There should not be injury time in overtime. These three minutes of injury time were because of Yan Junling With Lippi’s red card, now three minutes are up, why should we give Portugal a chance to attack?”
As the captain, Tang Zheng expressed his dissatisfaction to the referee Sandro Ricci as Quaresma walked to the corner. He believed that the game time had come and the game should be ended immediately.
Even though Sandro Ricci knew that he was wrong, he did not follow Tang Zheng's advice. Instead, he warned Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng has rich experience in competitions. Instead of expressing dissatisfaction with the referee, he reminded his teammates to give 100% or even 120% of their attention and energy.
In addition, assistant coach Madaloni assumed the role of interim head coach and ran to the fourth official to apply pressure.
Central 5 commentator He Wei once again praised Tang Zheng: "Captain Tang Zheng has a clear mind and returned to his job after appropriate pressure. The game is not over yet. Our players should concentrate on the game until the whole game. Finish!"
However, the referee has made a decision and there is no way to change it.
Under the roar of huge boos, Quaresma took a corner kick on the right.
The football in mid-air flew from the inside to the outside, a very obvious inside arc ball. The players on both sides of the penalty area stared closely at the football flying towards the middle of the small penalty area line.
Of course, only players with the ball within their control take action to prepare for the falling ball.
But at this moment, a bright green figure suddenly appeared in front of you like a black cloud, making people forget to take off.
"Tang Zheng!" CCTV 5 commentator He Wei shouted hysterically: "Tang Zheng attacked and hit the football far away!"
Just as he was about to sing praises to Tang Zheng again, referee Sandro Ricci's whistle sounded, two short and one long: "Beep~Beep~Beep~~"
So He Wei's voice suddenly changed and he shouted: "The game is over! The game is over! The two sides tied 1:1 in 120 minutes. The Chinese team and the Portuguese team will enter a brutal penalty shootout!"
Speaking of this, his voice was obviously excited: "Overtime is torture for the Chinese team, but I don't think so with the goal sitting in front of the TV. This... is a kind of enjoyment! Captain Tang Zheng saved the Chinese team by himself in the last few minutes! First he saved the penalty kick that Ronaldo was determined to win, and then refused Quaresma and Ronaldo's two consecutive shots in the penalty area...I think...the penalty shootout Tang Zheng will definitely perform even more amazingly!"
"Yes, Tang Zheng is in great shape! As long as the five players who take penalty kicks perform normally, defeating Portugal and advancing to the semi-finals of the World Cup is a sure thing!"
Guest commentator Xu Yang was very excited.
"The match ended in 120 minutes, and the two sides entered a penalty shootout!" British Sky commentator Andy Gray shouted: "Although the odds of the penalty shootout are equal for both sides, it has to be said that it was delayed until the point. The ball battle is huge good news for the Chinese team."
"Portugal, which misses excellent opportunities one after another, will definitely be punished." Commentator Martin Taylor laughed: "Facing Tang, who is at the height of his power, Portugal led by Cristiano Ronaldo is very likely to suffer. I am not being alarmist, but... Portugal wasted too many great opportunities..."
Those Portuguese fans sitting in front of the TV watching the game were very upset. As Martin Taylor said, Portugal wasted too many opportunities.
At the end of the game, the Chinese team captain Tang Zheng raised his arms high to vent the huge pressure at the end of overtime.
Other Chinese players flocked to Tang Zheng, who made a huge contribution, including those in front of the bench.
"Tang Zheng! Tang Zheng! Tang Zheng!"
The Chinese fans in the stands, led by fans from the Dragons fan club, chanted Tang Zheng's name.
In this game, if it weren't for Tang Zheng's outstanding performance, where would the Chinese team have a penalty shootout?
Sitting in the VIP seats, Tang's father, Tang's mother, Zhao Lina and Tang Qingqing were particularly excited in the fanatical atmosphere and were all proud of Tang Zheng's outstanding performance.
Thousands of kilometers away in China, a large number of fans were affected by the atmosphere and couldn't help shouting Tang Zheng's name, thanking him for everything he had done for the Chinese team in the past, because Tang Zheng's outstanding performance saved the Chinese team!
As a Chinese with a sense of national honor, we should follow Tang Zheng as an example!
When it's time to take responsibility, step forward and turn the tide!
※※※
The Portuguese players shown in the broadcast had serious expressions on their faces, and captain Cristiano Ronaldo even kept shaking his head, full of disappointment, helplessness and confusion.
Facing such a powerful Tang Zheng, what else can be done?
Cristiano Ronaldo put his hands on his hips and high-fived his teammates mechanically, with mixed emotions.
In other words, anxious.
There is a saying in world football that frequent waste of opportunities will be punished.
So...are there penalties for penalty shootouts?
In addition to Cristiano Ronaldo thinking about this issue, head coach Santos in front of the coaching bench is also thinking about it.
Portugal has too many opportunities in overtime. As long as it seizes one of them, then... the semi-finals are certain.
However, the game ended at 1:1 and had to enter a brutal penalty shootout.
The close-up shot of the on-site director once again showed Tang Zheng. At this time, he returned to the role of captain and encouraged his teammates.
The end of overtime means that a very cruel penalty kick feast is coming!
Especially for those players who are listed as taking penalty kicks, they will inevitably feel a little nervous.
Tang Zheng's duty is to influence his teammates through his confidence and make them confident too!
Soon, the assistant referee informed Tang Zheng that he should go to the center of the court to guess the coin.
The on-site director's close-up shot showed Tang Zheng, referee Sandro Ricci and Cristiano Ronaldo, and the three of them occupied the entire screen.
In the picture, Sandro Ricci took out a coin and gave a brief explanation to Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo as usual. The front of the coin was the goal on his left side, and the back of the coin was the goal on his right.
Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo made no sense and nodded lightly to express their agreement.
The coin that Sandro Ricci popped up with his right thumb landed on the turf, showing the reverse side, which means that the goal that took the penalty kick was the goal on the left side of the broadcast screen.
Cristiano Ronaldo obviously raised his eyebrows because... the direction of referee Sandro Ricci's right goal is the area where Chinese fans gather...
Immediately, it is a matter of choosing who will take the penalty kick first, or the winning side can take the penalty kick first or let the other side take the penalty kick first, depending on the actual situation.
Tang Zheng politely asked Cristiano Ronaldo to choose first, but the latter was not polite and directly chose the front.
A second later, Tang Zheng looked at the coins falling to the ground and smiled.
The flip side!
In other words, Tang Zheng can choose to take the penalty kick first, or let the opponent take the penalty kick first.
In fact, Tang Zheng had already thought about it. Since the penalty kick was in front of his own fans, Portugal would naturally kick it first!
After guessing the coin, Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo returned to their respective teams. As captains, they must encourage their teammates before the penalty shootout begins, paving the way for the subsequent penalty shootout.
No matter what the result is, you must have 100% confidence.
Tang Zheng called all his teammates to form a circle, putting each other's shoulders on each other's shoulders. He glanced at everyone and then shouted provocatively: "Do you have confidence in the next penalty kick?"
With Tang Zheng guarding the door, why should he not be confident?
"have!"
The other Chinese players subconsciously responded loudly.
Cristiano Ronaldo is doing the same thing, but his teammates don't seem to be very confident...
