The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Santos' counterattack was disrupted by the physical Lugano, who quickly handed the ball to Ricardinho, the midfield commander.

Ricardinho used an L-shaped turn to get rid of Diego who was rushing forward fiercely. When he looked up to find someone, he found Ricardo retreating and raising his hand for the ball.

Ricardinho hesitated for a moment, but thinking of Ricardo's outstanding performance in the previous dozen games, he still passed the ball.

The moment he was about to catch the ball, Ricardo felt that Almeida was approaching.

If it was a minute ago, he would choose to kick the ball quickly, or make a fake move to try to shake the opponent away, but this time, he just stabilized his center of gravity and waited for Almeida to hit him.

"Boom!"

The two of them collided heavily, Ricardo didn't fly out, but just staggered. This distorts his stopping motion, keeping the ball farther away from his body.

However, Almeida also temporarily lost his center of gravity, unable to jump over immediately.

Ricardo quickly caught up with the ball, brought it under his control, and turned to face Almeida.

Almeida stepped forward, but with a simple sway left and right, Ricardo opened up the gap and rushed forward quickly. Almeida was not completely thrown away, he rushed up to entangle with Ricardo, constantly trying to steal the ball from under Ricardo's feet, his kicks were very fierce, and one kick even kicked on Ricardo's calf.

Ricardo just swayed a bit, but didn't fall down to ask for a free kick. A free kick in this position cannot cause a fatal threat to the opponent. He continued to dribble, but under the entanglement of Almeida, he couldn't increase the speed.

Diego was also chasing back, and he moved quickly to this side, preparing to double-team Riccardo.

The voice of the commentator suddenly increased: "Licardo took the ball, he passed Almeida, and was still going forward. Diego came over, a sliding tackle! Beautiful! Ricardo took the lead and picked the ball up , dodged Diego's tackle!"

"Almeida entangled him again. Ricardo looked up and observed that his teammate's position was not good. He decided to continue dribbling the ball! Renato came to help defend and collided with Ricardo! The ball has not been lost yet, Ricardo Do is still in control of the ball! Even though he stumbled, he is still dribbling forward! In the penalty area, Alex is about to step forward to block, Ricardo makes a shot! Not a shot, he dunks the ball! He falls In the restricted area!"

The commentator's voice was almost on the verge of breaking the sound, but he was still shouting hoarsely: "The referee pointed to the penalty spot, this is a penalty! Ricardo made a contribution! This is his first attempt in this game Break through, even pass 3 people, and win a penalty for Sao Paulo! Sao Paulo has seen a glimmer of light!"

"Let's take a look at the slow-motion replay. Ricardo was at the front of the penalty area and collided with Renato, but he flicked the ball with his toes. The ball did not escape his control. He staggered and continued to dribble. Going forward, breaking through into the penalty area, Alex came to defend, Ricardo made a fake shot here, knocking Alex down. When he kicked up his left foot and was about to shoot, Renato slid from the side and was about to put The ball was destroyed, but Ricardo's shot was a false move. He dunked the ball to the right. Renato didn't stop his leg and tripped Ricardo into the penalty area. There is no doubt about the ball, it was indeed a foul , should be given a penalty!"

Santos players begged the referee and danced emotionally, but the referee was unmoved and still firmly pointed to the penalty spot.

Ricardo sat on the ground for a while, put on the socks and shin guards that had just slipped off during the tackle, and then slowly stood up. The Sao Paulo players had already rushed over and hugged him in turn.

"I knew you would stand up." Kaka whispered in his ear as she hugged him.

Ricardinho placed the ball on the penalty spot and waved to Cheney, the captain of his own half. Cheney is the team's number one penalty shooter.

But Cheney waved his hand vigorously, indicating that he would not kick the ball.

He was worried that if the penalty was not scored, the opponent would be given a chance to counterattack. Santos' speed was too fast, which impressed him.

Ricardo was about to exit the penalty area, but Ricardinho stopped him: "You take the penalty for this ball."

Ricardo was a little surprised: "You are the second penalty shooter."

Ricardinho smiled: "You created it yourself, and you should punish it."

Li Kaduo only hesitated slightly, then nodded emphatically. In terms of penalty kick skills, he is not bad. In terms of mentality, he can be regarded as a battle-tested veteran, and he can't find a reason not to take this penalty.

He rearranged the ball, took a few steps back, put his hands on his waist, looked into the eyes of goalkeeper Fabio Costa, and waited for the referee's whistle.

"Sao Paulo's captain Cheney refused to take the penalty, and Ricardo also refused to take the penalty. It seems that Ricardo took the penalty himself. This is the first time in his career that he took the penalty in an official game. Ball, can he beat the pressure?"

Sao Paulo fans held their breath for fear that their exhalation would interfere with Ricardo's free throw. Santos fans, on the contrary, tried their best to make all kinds of noise, trying to destroy Ricardo's mentality.

But Ricardo was unmoved. At this time, he seemed to be isolated from the outside world, and all noise could not affect him. He only concentrated on catching the referee's whistle.

"dysprosium!"

Ricardo started to run. During this process, he kept staring into Costa's eyes, without shifting his sight at all, so that Costa couldn't figure out where he would kick the ball.

He stomped hard on the left side of the football with his supporting leg and pumped his right foot hard.

Fabio Costa still couldn't make a judgment, but it would be too late if he didn't make a save at this time. He rushed to the doctor in a hurry and rushed to the lower left corner of the goal.

However, Ricardo's foot didn't hit the football hard. Before it touched the football, his foot suddenly slowed down. After Costa had already thrown it, he kicked the lower part of the football. The football wobbled. Drawing an arc, it slowly fell from the middle of the goal. It seemed to be as light as a feather, but also as heavy as a thousand weights. It seemed to be contemptuous and mocking of the home team, and fell within the goal line.

The referee blows his whistle and points to the center circle at the same time. The goal counts.

"Goallllllll! Ricardo withstood the pressure and scored the ball! It's a penalty kick! My God, this 16-year-old boy really has a super big heart! When the team fell behind 0:2 , he dared to kick a spoon penalty!"

"This is Ricardo's first penalty kick in his career. He scored the ball smoothly, which also allowed him to rise to the first place in the national championship scorer list this season. He scored 14 goals in 15 games. Such a goal The efficiency of the ball is really daunting!"

Ricardo didn't run to celebrate this time, he stood on the spot with his arms outstretched, as if he wanted to embrace something.

The goal itself is not worth mentioning. The important thing is that in the series of physical confrontations before the goal, he actually overcame his avoidance instinct.

Those who overcome others are powerful, and those who overcome themselves are strong.
