Melli stood in front of the football, with his hands on his hips, he wanted to take the free kick himself.
He looked ahead and saw that the players of the Chinese team were building a human wall. It could be seen from the expressions on their faces that these people were also very nervous. Their faces were tense and their expressions were slightly stiff.
Melli then looked over the wall. Although he couldn't see it from here, he still knew clearly that the top of the second person's head from the right of the wall was the upper right corner of the goal.
It is also the target of his free kick.
He's going to kick the football into that place, once and for all!
End this close-quarters fight that exhausted both sides.
The television broadcast gave Melly a close-up at this point.
What appeared in front of audiences around the world was a resolute image with a slight frown and a focused gaze ahead.
"Meli Banega is going to take the free kick. He also had the experience of taking a free kick from this position when he was with the Madrid Kings. So the players of the Olympic team must be extra careful and must be vigilant..."
He Feng's introduction made the Chinese fans in front of the TV extremely nervous.
Xie Lan clasped his hands in front of his mouth, not daring to take a breath, for fear that his breathing at home would interfere with the performance of the distant Olympic team.
Hu Lixin was not as cautious as she was, but he still had a solemn expression.
Santa Lucia, which had been noisy for almost the whole game, became slightly quieter, and a clear whistle sounded at this moment.
Melli stood on tiptoes before running up. This is his signature move. Whether he is taking a free kick or a penalty kick, he will do it. The media has analyzed that this action helps Melli to exert his strength, but all
That's nonsense. Melly himself said in an interview that this is just a habitual move of his.
After starting on tiptoe, Melli hit the football with his left foot. He did not turn greatly to the right to increase the pulling force of his kick. Instead, he still kept his body upright and relied entirely on the swing of his left foot.
Let's play football!
At the same time as he took the shot, the Chinese Olympic team's human wall also took off collectively.
But football still found a breakthrough in the human wall of different heights and got through a pass!
When the ball passed through the wall, Lin Zhiyuan, who had started running horizontally from the moment Messi took off, also jumped into the air and reached for the upper right corner of the goal. He did not wait for the ball to pass through the wall before starting, as it would have been too late.
.
He was betting that Mellie would kick that spot.
His bet was right!
His right palm edge hit the ball!
The football bounced upward and hit the crossbar!
Bounced back into the field again!
Cantero, who was ambushing in the penalty area, planned to rush up and take a supplementary shot. However, as soon as he started, he saw a figure approaching the ball!
Lin Zhiyuan, who had not yet landed, also caught a glimpse of the figure. His heart almost jumped out of his chest at that time. But after he saw who it was, he let out a sigh of relief: I was scared to death!
It’s Hu Lai!
He pushed the football over the baseline with his head before anyone else.
Gived Argentina a corner kick, but did not allow Argentina to get a chance to shoot an empty goal.
Only then did everyone react. The commentator He Feng covered his racing heart and shouted: "Melli's free kick was of very high quality, but Lin Zhiyuan made a key save! And Hu Lai took over in the penalty area.
Get the football out of the siege...the Chinese team has survived another disaster!"
“Melli’s ball really went to a blind corner...Lin Zhiyuan used his ability to the extreme, Hu Lai’s clearance in the penalty area is also crucial! Come on, Olympic team! Hold on!” Yan Kang cheered for the team.
Melli put his head in his hands and looked at the goal. He couldn't believe that such a high-quality free kick was blocked by the opponent.
When the ball came out, he had a very strange feeling, feeling that the ball would definitely go in. It felt like he had put the football into a blind spot with his hands.
But reality did not develop as he expected.
A hand suddenly came out and roughly interrupted the originally comfortable scene. It was like someone suddenly dropped a stone on the water surface that was as smooth as a mirror without any ripples, or like the perfectly fitted wall tiles were suddenly removed.
Someone picked off a piece...
Lin Zhiyuan got up from the ground, turned around and pounced on Hu Lai, pulled him into his arms, then raised his hand and slapped his back hard, making a heavy and dull sound like a drum.
Seeing this, He Feng smiled and said: "Lin Zhiyuan really needs to thank Hu Lai, otherwise his originally wonderful save would turn into the cause of conceding the ball. From hero to bear, that is Hu Lai."
This is the difference!”
Hu Lai grinned after being slapped. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and broke free from Lin Zhiyuan's restraints. He said angrily: "You did it on purpose!"
Lin Zhiyuan laughed loudly: "What a villain! I sincerely thank you!"
“Then treat me to dinner!”
Lin Zhiyuan’s laughter paused for a second: “Throw it away!”
Wang Guangwei and other teammates rushed forward and hugged them both: "Beautiful!"
Hu Lai announced loudly in the crowd: "Lin Zhiyuan said that in order to thank me, he wanted to treat me to dinner!"
Teammates all said: "It should be done!"
“The small forest is still atmospheric!”
Lin Zhiyuan: "Hu Lai, what the hell..." He could only try to change the subject.
"What are you happy about? Is this the time to be happy? Defend a corner kick!" He struggled to break away from everyone's hugs and raised his hands to disperse the Olympic team teammates surrounding him. "Mark man to man! Don't miss one! The best!"
In the end, we cannot let down our guard!"
He Feng and Yan Kang couldn't hear what the players in front of the goal said, they could only see the picture. They saw their teammates surrounding Lin Zhiyuan and Hu Lai, the two heroes in the free kick defense, and then looked at
Everyone was laughing around them, and then they saw Lin Zhiyuan raising his hands and shouting something very seriously. He should be reminding everyone to defend the corner kick...
"That's great, Yan Kang. These young people are so good!" He Feng said with emotion. "Even if we are eliminated from the group this time, these young people are enough to bring hope to Chinese football."
“That’s right, He Feng. A gust of wind blew on the court, bringing us fresh air and cheering us up!”
※※※
When Argentina's corner kick came out, Wang Guangwei jumped up high before Juan Sosa and pushed the football away from the front point.
“Good goal! Wang Guangwei made a header to clear the ball!”
The football flew outside and Argentina controlled the second goal. However, the overall shape of the Chinese team remained intact. They could not penetrate the center and had to move to the wing.
Right wing-back Diego Rodriguez tried to pass from the right wing, but his ball was blocked by Chen Xingyi with his outstretched leg and flew out of the baseline.
Argentina wins another corner kick.
“Keep an eye on good people! Don’t let your target escape!” Lin Zhiyuan’s loud voice rang out again. He stood in front of the door, raising his hands high to declare his presence.
After shouting these words, he suddenly realized that his heartbeat was not as fast as before...
No, it’s still very fast, but this kind of speed is a different kind of excitement.
He lowered his raised hands and spread them out.
This goal area has height restrictions, speed restrictions, flying restrictions, and no goals allowed!
When Melly kicked the football towards the goal, Lin Zhiyuan shouted: "Mine!!!"
Then he rushed out with a lunge, jumped into the air, stretched out his hands high, and picked up the ball first among the Argentinian players and Olympic team teammates who jumped up to compete for the top.
In the process, he also felt someone bumping into his body. He shook, but his hands kept firmly holding the football, holding it high, as if to declare sovereignty, not only to the football, but also to the
of this goal.
After landing, Lin Zhiyuan glanced at the right wing and saw Luo Kai running away, so he threw the football over.
Luo Kai turned around and saw the football flying over, and quickly confirmed that there was an Argentine player in front of him.
He decided not to stop the ball, but directly threw the football out, and then raced with the opponent, relying on his own speed and first-mover advantage to overtake.
But in the end, he made a big mistake. He successfully passed the defensive player, caught the opponent off guard, but sent the football out of the sideline...
Luo Kai still chased him all the way to the sideline, as if he still had energy and nowhere to vent.
Then he looked up to the sky and howled with regret.
After the call, he quickly turned around and ran back to the court to engage in a new round of defense.
Argentina quickly sent out a throw-in. As soon as the left wing-back Augusto Cardoso received the ball, Roquet had already pounced on it. He quickly stopped and turned around to protect the ball.
Luo Kai moved to the front of him, lowered his center of gravity, and stood ready.
“It’s eighty-five minutes, there are still five minutes left, wait for five more minutes!” The players on the bench of the Olympic team anxiously shouted to their teammates on the court to remind them of the time and give them hope.
In a few minutes, we will draw with Argentina for the first time in an international competition! In a few minutes, we will create a more glorious history! So hold on, brothers!
At the same time, Chinese fans, who occupied nearly half of the stands at Santa Lucia Stadium, sang in unison to cheer for their No. 1 home team.
He Feng only heard the first sentence at the scene, and his scalp was numb and he had goosebumps all over his body...
Yan Kang next to him also closed his mouth that he just opened.
“People who don’t want to be slaves! Build our new Great Wall with our flesh and blood!!”
“The Chinese nation has arrived! The most dangerous time! Everyone is forced to make one last roar!”
"stand up!"
"stand up!!"
"stand up!!!"
“We are united! Brave the enemy’s fire! Move forward!”
“Brave the enemy’s fire! Advance!”
"go ahead!"
“Forward! Advance!!”
He Feng and Yan Kang did not make any sound, allowing this highly recognizable and loud singing voice to be transmitted back to the TV sets of thousands of households in China through satellite signals, mixing with the noise of the scene, in countless living rooms,
