Three draws to three, the score was still the same at the end of overtime. The two sides were tied and had to enter the final penalty shootout.
Fans from both sides were almost suffocated.
This game really made them nervous, and they were all very worried.
It's now time, and no one wants to lose. After all, the Europa League final is right around the corner. Who wants to fail?
Tong Yi immediately called the players over and told them in detail what to do next?
The AC Milan players were panting non-stop and drinking water to replenish their fluids.
After all, they have played for more than 120 minutes, and the players' physical fitness has really reached its limit.
Of course, they have to grit their teeth and persevere at this time. No one wants to be eliminated at this time. The players' expressions are very determined and their mentality is extremely stable.
Tong Yi didn't say much here, he just said, "Stay calm, we obviously have the advantage at this time. At least in terms of momentum, everything in this game is following our rhythm."
As long as we don’t mess up, we will definitely win this game.”
The players nodded one after another and recognized Tong Yi's words. They were also very confident.
Tong Yi patted the players on the shoulders and said, "Don't think too much, just follow what we trained before, it will be fine!"
Yes, before coming to Spain, AC Milan trained on penalty kicks.
And it's specially trained.
Of course, this cannot be said that Tong Yi expected that a penalty kick would definitely be taken in this game. He just made complete preparations. By this time, the AC Milan players will not panic and their mood will be very stable.
I wonder if Valencia has ever practiced penalty kicks before?
If they have not been specially trained, their mentality at this time should not be as good as AC Milan, so AC Milan should still have the advantage at this time.
Tong Yi didn't say much, but turned around and called Courtois over for a private discussion.
Everyone in the audience saw it!
Even the Valencia players turned their heads and looked at Courtois and Tong Yi.
They all frowned slightly, full of doubts in their hearts.
No way, has this guy Tong Yi given Courtois another clever idea?
After all, Tong Yi had such a magic touch before!
Such operations were done in Munich 1860 and the Crystal Palace, and even the "little note tactic" was used at the Crystal Palace. It is said that the "little note" was completely a blank piece of paper, and it was directly fooled.
Opponent, Crystal Palace won the penalty shootout.
Is Tong Yi here again this time?
Not to mention, Valencia's players and head coach take it very seriously. They all stare at Tong Yi and Courtois, especially Tong Yi, as if they want to read the shape of their mouths.
Let’s judge Tong Yi’s family
What is the guy talking about?
But this guy Tong Yi seemed to have predicted the actions of Marcelino and others in advance. He directly blocked his mouth with his hand so that others could not see the shape of his mouth. And he kept talking.
, Courtois kept nodding. This made everyone even more confused. What did this guy Tong Yi say to Courtois? Why was it so long?
Marcelino’s brows furrowed!
He felt that this guy Tong Yi would never be aimless. After talking for so long, there must be something real. Otherwise, how could he talk so much nonsense? And he was still talking so much nonsense at such a critical time?
Therefore, Marcelino frowned!
He felt that Tong Yi must have studied the penalty kick habits of their players in detail. Although there were not many samples of Valencia players taking penalty kicks, he knew that Tong Yi's coaching staff had a very good team.
A powerful data collection and analysis team, among which Schwartz is very powerful. He is now a well-known data analyst in world football, and many famous coaches want to cooperate with him.
Therefore, others may not be able to collect this data, but Schwartz's group certainly can.
He raised his eyebrows, wasn't he specifically targeting Courtois based on the characteristics of every penalty kicker in Valencia?
If this is the case, it would be very dangerous!
Marcelino immediately came to the players and directly told him, "When you serve penalty kicks, try to avoid your usual habit of giving penalty kicks, especially the angle of the penalty kick. Never give it to Courtois."
And Huaxia Tong was fooled!"
The Valencia players nodded and made it clear.
And they couldn't help but turn their heads and look at Tong Yi and Courtois, full of doubts in their hearts. They couldn't really study our penalty kick habits, right? But we ourselves don't know what our penalty kicks are.
What is your habit?
However, they still trust Marcelino's words and avoid some small habits.
By this time, the penalty shootout began.
Fans on both sides were excited and nervous, because this penalty shootout was indeed very cruel. If you were not careful, you would be eliminated. And they did not want their team to be eliminated. They were all in
Excitedly cheering for his players.
At this time, Courtois was standing in front of the goal, and Valencia took the first penalty kick.
Courtois saw Valencia forward Frenchman Gameiro coming up. He smiled slightly, then pointed to the upper right corner of the goal, as if to say, you will definitely take charge of this angle, right?
Gameiro frowned slightly, then took a quick run and hit the football hard. The football shot quickly towards the lower left corner of the goal. And the moment the football flew out, Kurtu was in front of the goal.
Wa also pounced toward the lower left corner of the goal with lightning speed.
Seeing this, Gameiro's eyes widened and he was horrified. Was this being predicted?
Does Courtois really know about our penalty kick habit?
The faces of all the Valencia fans in the audience darkened, and their moods sank to the bottom of their minds - Wow oh oh oh!
Then the Valencia fans roared with excitement and jumped with excitement - the ball was scored!
Although Courtois threw the ball in the right direction, the angle of the ball was too tricky and the ball almost flew into the goal while grazing the inside of the goal. Even Courtois, Buffon Cech and Casillas could not save the ball.
Come on, oh, the one standing in front of the goal now is Courtois!
The Valencia fans were so excited that they even started dancing.
But more than a minute later, their passion was extinguished by Lautaro's low shot. Neto in front of the goal directly judged the wrong direction. The score of the two sides officially became a one-to-one draw. The fans of both sides
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief! But Marcelino on the sidelines was very nervous because their team's first penalty kick was judged to be in the right direction!
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Tong Yi, and then glanced at Courtois!
Valencia's Guedes walked to the penalty spot. He stared at Courtois in front of him, took a deep breath, and quickly rushed towards the football. However, when he came to the football, he suddenly paused and changed his rhythm, and then
With a lightning-fast volley, the football shot quickly towards the lower left corner of the goal.
With a snap, Courtois arrived in front of the goal and touched the football with his fingertips. The football changed direction slightly and then flew out of the baseline while grazing the outside of the post!
The faces of all the Valencia fans in the audience turned pale instantly!
Got caught!
Guedes held his head in his hands and expressed disbelief. He felt this ball very well, and the change of rhythm obviously deceived Courtois. Why could he still be saved? He didn't understand very much and shook his head absently!
The AC Milan fans cheered excitedly and even started dancing, as if they had already won the game.
Marcelino's face was also very ugly, and he kept encouraging his players. Unfortunately, Neto still could not stop Haaland's heavy bombardment, and the football shot quickly towards the upper right corner of the goal.
This goal was really too violent, not to mention Neto, even Kahn Casillas and van der Sar Yashin couldn't make it.
Neto was also helpless, while the Valencia fans were livid.
The total score is two to one, and Valencia is falling behind.
Marcelino was frantically cheering for his players, but Gas's penalty shot deceived Courtois and the goal. The football flew directly over the crossbar and out of the baseline.
Seeing this, the Valencia fans are desperate. Is this game going to be over for us?
Pellegrini then walked up to the penalty spot and casually glanced at the lower right corner of Valencia's goal, then kicked the ball directly into the center of the goal. Neto pounced on the goal
In the lower left corner, I was completely deceived. It can also be said that I made a wrong bet and made a bet in the wrong direction.
Three to one, AC Milan was in sight of victory. Rosenery began to dance crazily, which made the Valencia fans furious. But at this time, they had no intention of competing with Rosenery.
They were fighting each other, and they were all cheering the team up, because if they couldn't score the next goal, the game would be over.
At this time, Parejo, who stepped onto the penalty spot, attracted much attention, and all the pressure was on him.
The Valencia fans at the scene were cheering him on and applauding him.
Marcelino also clasped his hands together and prayed quietly, praying that the goal would be scored. If the goal was not scored, Valencia would be doomed!
Parejo stood in front of the penalty spot with a very calm expression. He looked at Courtois calmly and did not feel the opponent's pressure at all. Then he took a deep breath, took a run-up, and quickly came to
In front of the football, he easily pushed the ball directly to the lower right corner of the goal!
The ball was very fast, faster than Courtois' save, and then rolled into AC Milan's goal.
Parejo kept Valencia's hopes alive, their hopes of victory.
Marcelino rushed out excitedly and performed a passionate kneeling slide, as if they had already won. This really relieved the pressure in his heart to a certain extent, and so did he
I would like to encourage the Valencia players not to give up, we can create miracles!
But it is still very dangerous for Valencia now, because if AC Milan scores the next penalty kick, the game will end here, and AC Milan will win!
Marcelino immediately led all the Valencia fans to cheer for Neto, and they all roared excitedly.
Neto was under great pressure at this time, but the person standing in front of the penalty spot was wing-back Davis. The Valencia fans thought that this goal had a chance, and they had a chance to reverse it!
Then Davis walked up to the penalty spot under the spotlight, took a deep breath, and stared straight at Neto in front of the goal. To be honest, the young Davis is not afraid. After all, he is a winger.
Yes, although his shooting skills are not very strong, they are not too bad either. He himself is very confident.
Hearing the whistle, Davis took a deep breath, then rushed out quickly, quickly swung his leg and kicked hard... He didn't hit the football directly, but gently put it down, and flicked his ankle.
A penalty kick came out. Neto in front of the goal had already pounced towards the upper right corner of the goal.
There is no suspense, the football flew into Valencia's goal!
4 to 2, AC Milan defeated Valencia in a penalty shootout!
