The prince seemed to know that he had no chance, so he seemed a little indifferent to the looks from his teammates. This was not because he was arrogant, but because he was feeling sad inside.
The Russian team's style of play seems to be in conflict with the Spanish team. If the player strength were not generally different from the Spanish team, it would be difficult to say who is the winner when the two teams fight. Now the heavy rain is falling again.
If this gap is evened out, the game will be really difficult to play.
At the beginning of the second half, in the 50th minute, Xavi scored the ball in the midfield. Iniesta dribbled from the left and slowly entered the penalty area and suddenly made a pass. Xavi inserted his right foot from 6 meters and scored, Spain 1-0. No. 52
In the minute, Silva dribbled the ball from the front of the penalty area to attract the defender and passed the ball. Fabregas made a wonderful pass. Torres, who was unguarded, hit the far corner with a right-footed arc ball from 12 meters away from the left rib.
In the 61st minute, Iniesta went straight into the penalty area, and Fabregas succeeded in countering offside. He faced the attacking Akinfeev's pass at the right baseline, and Anyukov headed the ball in the middle to make a clearance. In the 62nd minute
, Ramos broke through from the right and passed, and Torres' right-footed shot from 12 meters away missed. In the 63rd minute, Ramos broke through from the right again and passed, and Torres shook off the defense and missed with his right thigh from 6 meters away.
Far corner.
During this period, the Spanish team completely suppressed the Russian team's offense. Being behind in the score allowed them to use all their fighting spirit to charge towards the Russian hinterland. The ball was constantly being passed in the Russian half, but several shots were not missed.
The goal was scored by the excited Akinfeev, and the score was never rewritten.
Time passed little by little, and impatience was written on everyone's face. Even Aragones, who was wandering on the sidelines, couldn't help but start to become anxious. However, the players worked hard, and sometimes scoring goals was necessary.
A little luck, obviously Spain lacks this luck, so it has been unable to score goals despite taking the initiative.
When Aragones was thinking hard about countermeasures, the Spanish team, which frequently wasted opportunities, was about to receive retribution. In their eagerness to attack, they made a mistake. Senna, who was forward to connect, was deftly intercepted by Arshavin. Then the latter immediately launched a sharp attack.
Fight back.
The Czar was running with the ball. Although there were two Spanish center backs in front of him, he was fearless at his peak and rushed towards the defense. His body swayed deftly and he dodged with a flick of his left foot.
He caught the reckless Marchena, adjusted his steps, and fired a fierce volley from the penalty area line.
As the ball left the Tsar's right foot like an arrow and flew towards the goal, everyone's hearts became nervous and entangled. This was the fateful goal. If Arshavin really scored a goal, then 2 goals
With the advantage and the limited time left, the Spanish team can basically declare its departure from this European Cup.
All Spanish fans are praying that Arshavin's shot must not go in. At this moment, God is very busy.
It seems that I heard this kind of prayer. God has appeared. Spain is the champion he has destined, so how can Arshavin change his destiny?
As a result, Saint Cassie was possessed by God at this moment. He flew away from the gravity of the earth and rushed toward the football. In a serious violation of the law of powerlessness, he saved Arshavin's ball in the lower right corner of the goal.
Bottom line, the whole audience exclaimed.
Saint Cassie stood up and roared fiercely to vent his anger, while Arshavin waved his arm in annoyance. Although it was regrettable, this counterattack would restrain Spain's attack and prevent Russia from breathing again.
Can't help but feel angry.
There are still 25 minutes left in the game, and Russia is still leading the Spanish team. Although they are still trying hard to find opportunities to score, all they do seems to be in vain. Although Aragones made several tactical adjustments, there is still no chance.
Able to score.
The old coach looked at the players on the field, whose footsteps were getting heavier, and then at the stern-faced players on the bench, and finally fixed his gaze on the gloomy-looking prince in the corner.
Whether to continue to let him sit there for the sake of face, or to ignore past grudges for the sake of victory, at this moment, the old coach began to feel entangled in his heart.
Forget it, wait for now. The coach still hasn't made a decision. However, he still asked all the substitute players on the bench to get up and warm up. This is the best time to make substitutions. He must take action, otherwise
, the little time left is definitely not waiting for anyone.
The prince was jogging on the sidelines with several teammates. He was speechless about the situation on the court. It was quite annoying to be in such a hurry that he couldn't exert his energy. Although he was sent out to warm up, he didn't know whether Aragones could be big.
If he was sent on the field at a high speed, at least if it were him, he might not be so selfless.
"Jose, although I really don't want you to play, it seems that victory is more attractive. I don't know why I have this idea, as if you will definitely bring victory to the team. Go ahead and play.
With your strength, you can make these Russians go back in despair, I know you can." Just when the prince returned to the bench, Aragones's voice rang out.
The prince felt really guilty at this moment. He saw the relief on the old coach's face, but he blamed himself even more. However, the prince did not say any extra words or actions. He just nodded silently and walked firmly to the sidelines to wait for his appearance.
"Go, you belong to this stadium, you are the best star on this planet, and you will use your efforts to lead the team to victory." The old coach said silently to the prince's back, and he placed his hope on
For this 20-year-old young man, in order to win, he doesn't care about face or reputation. At least at this moment he can be worthy of the national flag on the chest of his sportswear.
The coach not only made such an adjustment, Prince replaced Silva. Valencia's core sprinted repeatedly in the front and backcourt during the game, and now there is not much energy left.
Alonso replaced Senna, and Villarreal's core midfielder also had a very wide running range. On the one hand, considering physical issues, and more importantly, tactical requirements, Aragones began to make a desperate move and replaced
He used the defensive midfielder and attacked with all his strength, completely blocking the back path. He would not be crazy without being crazy.
After the substitution, Spain's formation became 433, and Prince also appeared in the forward position. However, considering that Torres was at the front, Prince became a left winger.
After the prince entered the field, he did not communicate with his teammates. He just stood in the middle circle, squatted down and grabbed a handful of the mixture of grass and stagnant water, put it under his nose and sniffed it, as if he was getting used to it.
A peculiar smell.
He seems to miss this stadium a little. He was substituted midway through the last game, and came on as a substitute in this game. There was a 90-minute blank period in the middle, which happened to be the time of a game. It was such a short period of time, and it felt like it was very long.
Far away, he longs for the game, he longs to sweat on this field, release his passion, and defeat his opponents.
Different from the prince's deepness, there is a player on the field whose thoughts are strangely fluctuating, and that is Russian goalkeeper Akinfeev.
In the time before this game, the Russian goalkeeper performed admirably and even felt a little convulsive. He destroyed many Spanish team's must-goals like Spider-Man with high catches and low blocks. If it weren't for his outstanding performance,
, maybe the Russian team’s goal is no longer guaranteed.
But seeing the prince's figure, Akinfeev felt like he wanted to pee, his whole body was shaking and his legs were weak.
Physically, this kind of reaction is really strange, but now he really has a shadow in his heart.
Before the group stage, Akinfeev planned to compete for the goalkeeper position in the best team of the European Cup. However, in the first half of the first game of the group stage, Prince's hat trick made him fall into the infinite abyss.
, what a shame and humiliation this is.
Finally, I have corrected my mentality and plan to play football well, and the evil star of Spain has not started yet. I thought I could give a good performance and avenge the bloodbath in the group stage. The game is developing in that direction, but who knows?
To think that this guy who was rumored to have had conflicts with the coach actually came on as a substitute at the last moment.
Oh my god, for the first time Akinfeev felt that this game was hanging in the balance again.
The prince will not consider the pitiful thoughts of the opponent's poor goalkeeper. He must seize the time to score, otherwise, the game may be postponed to overtime.
The game continued, the Spanish team took a goal kick, and Sancasi took the ball away with a big kick, but Torres did not have the Russian players who were able to make a difference. This is not the first time this scene has appeared in this game.
With a one-goal lead, the Russian team can play more passively. That's what they are doing now. The back line has begun to contact with the ball. Although the Russian players have limited foot skills, they are still better than the Chinese players.
They are stronger, although the field is a bit slippery, but under the loose pressing of the wide field, there will generally be no mistakes.
In order to equalize the score as soon as possible, Spain's formation began to press forward again. Prince and Torres even rushed to the opponent's back line to press. Although the effect was not obvious, it could at least contain the Russian team's shameless backcourt kick. As long as
If Russia can fight, Spain will have a chance.
Prince, a nerd, is actually very smart sometimes. In this situation, he must think of tactics to break. If his defensive ability is excellent, coupled with his unstoppable speed, it is very likely that the Russian players will be forced to scramble.
But now it is difficult to threaten the opponent with only speed and no defensive ability.
By the way, there is also the "fearful tackle". I almost forgot about this sure-kill move. The prince thought that he should plan it carefully.
