Five hundred and twentieth chapters Bailey's blessing(1/2)

"The two sides fought hard for 90 minutes and tied three to three, and had to enter a cruel penalty shootout. This is the first game in this Copa America where penalty kicks are required to decide the outcome."

"Dida is in poor form, Cesar missed the Copa America due to injury, and Doni was able to become the starting goalkeeper of Brazil. Judging from this game, Doni's ability and performance are still excellent, but the real test has only begun now..."

Brazil was the first to attack, and Kaka was the first to stand in front of the penalty spot.

Brazilian fans have been quiet for the time being, while Uruguay fans have made huge noises.

Karini bent down slightly, stared at Kaka's eyes, trying to create mental pressure on him, but after looking at him, he became nervous.

Kaka sorted out her shoelaces, checked the sod near the free throw point, and then returned to the front of the football and stood still, signaling to the referee that he was ready.

Karini nodded as well, indicating that she could start.

A whistle sounded.

Kaka had been lowering her head, but when she was running, she suddenly raised her head and looked at the upper right corner of the goal.

Karini hesitated for a moment, and made a quick decision and rushed to his right, which was Kaka's left.

"Carini made a slap, Kaka pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal. The ball was not fast, and she was playing the mental tactics..."

"Brazil's team is temporarily leading 4-3."

"The first appearance of Uruguay was Fran."

Fran took a deep breath and shot the ball into the upper left corner of the goal.

Doni did not hesitate, and rushed to the right as soon as he shot, and rapped the ball down with one hand.

"pretty!"

"Doni, good!"

Doni was also very excited and waved his fists hard.

Then Robinho came up and tricked Carini into scoring easily;

Recoba is Uruguay's second penalty kicker. Doni judged the right direction, but failed to meet football...

In the third round, the two teams also did not miss.

Brazil is temporarily leading 6-5.

In the 4th round, Macon continued to hit, but Uruguay C. Rodriguez also tricked Doni into pushing and shooting.

"Brazil team 7-6, in the 5th round. If Brazil can hit, the game will be completely killed; if Carini can save the ball and Uruguay can score, the suspense will continue."

The fifth penalty for Brazil's team was Alfonso.

The Brazilian coach and players on the sidelines unconsciously bent down slightly, as if preparing to celebrate.

Uruguayans kept drawing crosses and praying to God.

Kaka waved his hand and asked his teammates to put their hands on the shoulders of the people next to him, forming a row.

The whistle sounded, Alfonso assisted and shot hard with his right foot.

Some Uruguayans couldn't help but close their eyes and were awakened by the cheers of the people next to them.

"Alfonso's shot hit the left post, and Brazil missed the opportunity to kill the game! Uruguay got a glimmer of hope!"

All the pressure was on Christian, who was the fifth player in Uruguay.

His face was very calm, but he didn't even know how to wipe the sweat from his forehead when he was about to drip into his eyes. Obviously, his mood was not as turbulent as it was on the surface.

While recalling the contents on the note, Doni patted each other with his palms, then stretched his arms to both sides, trying to interfere with Christian.

"Christian shot! In the middle! Doni didn't guess correctly, 7-7, both sides stood on the same starting line again!"

"It's a pity that Doni failed to become a hero, but now the opportunities on both sides are equal, and he still has a chance to prove himself."

The atmosphere on the court was so solemn that it was breathless.

In the 6th round, Baptista, who was the first to shoot, pushed the left goal post and the ball was blocked!

"Baptista also made a mistake! Victory is waving to Uruguay! The sixth penalty for Uruguay is Pablo Garcia! If this penalty is scored, he will help Uruguay eliminate Brazil and become a hero in all Uruguay!"

Garcia certainly knew what he was facing. In the close-up, the audience could even see his gently trembling hands.

Under such huge pressure, Garcia's shot was also rejected by the post.

The cheers of Brazilians and the sighs of Uruguayans rang together.

"It's a pity that Doni has made a wrong judgment, but Garci pursued an angle in Asia and also kicked the ball to the goal post. Let's see who is next to Brazil... Oh, Lucio, I didn't expect Dunga to line him up like this..."

Lucio was about to walk to the penalty spot, but Kaka called him over.

He thought Kaka was going to teach some experience, but who knew Kaka just lowered his voice and said, "Pretending to be scared."

Lucio looked constipated: "...Aren't you afraid that I will be in trouble first?"

"You haven't seen any big scene before, are you still afraid of this?"

"Thank you for looking down on me so much, but I'm really afraid."

"I'm afraid of hair, so I can't pack it up and go home anyway. I don't want to play this Copa America anyway."

"Are you serious?"

"I lied to you?"

“No?”

"Is there any? Even if there is, it is definitely not this time. Don't believe it? Look at my eyes, are you sincere or not?"

“…”

"Caca seems to be teaching Lucio experience. We all know that he is a player who plays football with his head. Maybe he has observed some weaknesses of Carini... Lucio smiled. Maybe we guessed wrongly. Kaca is just helping Lucio adjust his mood? No matter what, there is not much time left for them, and the referee signaled Brazil to start quickly..."

Lucio was lightly equipped, while Carini was suspicious.

He was really afraid that Kaka would see through any weaknesses that he himself didn't understand.

After loosening and tightening, Lucio easily pushed the ball to the right side of the goal, while Carini didn't even make a save. I don't know if he wanted to block the middle or hesitate too much and didn't react.

Brazil is leading again.

"The captain Lugano is playing in Uruguay, and the team's fate will be under his feet."

"Lugano... also pushed the ball! It was too soft! Doni easily saved the ball! Uruguay team was eliminated!"

"Congratulations to Brazil, after many twists and turns, we finally got the victory in our hands!"

"Three years ago in the Copa America, Uruguay lost to Brazil in the semi-final penalty, and history repeats itself three years later. The Uruguayan is sad again. Brazil will compete for the championship with the winner between Mexico and Argentina."

Doni was hugged by his teammates, and the Brazilian coach and players on the sidelines ran into the court and hugged the players on the court.

Kaka breathed a sigh of relief.

Lucio looked at him strangely, "Didn't you say you care?"

"Oh, I lied to you."

“(〼蓝蓝蓝).”

No matter what, Brazil finally advanced to the finals again, and most of the fans praised it.

But the media are not so tolerant.

"Brazil defeated Uruguay by relying on a penalty shootout and advanced to the finals, but compared to the last game of a refreshing victory over Chile, the performance of Brazil in this game is really not very good. It returns to ugly from beauty, which can be explained by the data.

In the whole game, Uruguay scored 16 shots, Brazil only had 9 fouls, 18 to 21, Brazil more, while Uruguay scored 293 passes, while Brazil only had 276 passes.

Judging from the data, Brazil looks like Uruguay, while Uruguay is more like Brazil.

Kaka is still the number one hero for Brazil's promotion. Two assists helped Brazil lead twice, and one goal pulled Brazil back from the line of death. The penalty shootout was the first to play, making it easy to get the penalty, stabilizing the morale of the army.

Of course, goalkeeper Doni has the best performance in the penalty shootout. In addition to his wonderful performance, he saved the opponent's goal at least twice in the game. One was Recoba's right-footed volley in front of the penalty area in the first half, and the other was Fran's left-footed volley, both of which were lifted out of the lintel by Doni with a classic textbook flight save. On the other hand, Uruguay's Carini made almost no wonderful saves...

But the better the goalkeeper's performance, the worse the team plays overall and the more opportunities they give to the opponent.

What is the difference between Uruguay and Chile? Apart from being more fierce in style and running more, there is almost no difference. The biggest problem lies in Kaka.

Look at Kaka's performance in the last stage of the game, that is what we are familiar with Kaka, dribbling, breaking through, and shooting. The Uruguayan has no way to deal with him, but such Kaka only appeared for more than ten minutes. In most cases, Kaka's role is to restrain, pass the ball, dispatch, and even defend.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Uruguayans are too harsh. They almost never give Kaka the chance to catch the ball easily. Kaka was kicked to the ground many times during the game, and had no choice but to return to the midfield and backcourt to support the ball, but this greatly reduced the pressure on Uruguayan's defense.

Gilberto, Baptista, and even Diego, who plays as a midfielder, are not world-class ball control players. Some of them can score, some can assist in defense, some can steal, and some can pass, but they lack a player like Ronaldo in the Pereira era, Kaka, and a player with balanced abilities like Emerson. Therefore, this Brazilian team is not playing "Brazil"...

Next, Brazil's opponents, whether they are Argentina or Mexico, will have more inspiration for Uruguay's style of play. While holding Kaka, Dunga should also think of some new tricks..."

Compared with the Brazilian team's stuttering, Argentina has been much smoother.

In the 44th minute, Riquelme kicked a strange arc ball from 30 meters. The ball fell between the opponent's wall and goalkeeper Sanchez. Heinze, who inserted it, rushed to the net before Sanchez attacked, volleying into the net. Argentina led 1-0 to end the first half.

After the halftime break, the Mexican coach replaced Bravo and Medina to strengthen the offensive, while Argentina took advantage of the Mexico team's pressure and frequently counterattacked.

In the 61st minute, Heinze distributed the ball to Tevez from the left to the middle. Tevez turned around and observed it, cleverly distributed the ball to Messi in the corner of the penalty area.

Messi raised his eyes to observe after getting the ball, and then launched a precise shot like a scalpel on his left foot. Sanchez had no choice but to do anything about the ball. The ball, with Messi's talent and Argentina's pride, fell into the goal obediently.

Messi's goal perfectly replicated the final of the season's Champions League. AC Milan legendary star Savicevic's stunning shot from Barcelona. This goal is also one of the most exciting goals in this cup so far. If Kaka hadn't scored a stunning rainbow in the just-concluded game, the goal could have almost secured the best goal of this cup in advance.

After leading two goals, Argentina played more relaxed.
