College Women's Soccer Men's Coach

Chapter 9 Penalty Shootout
Li Yang picked up the ball with a flick of his toes, stretched out his index finger to catch it, and the football spun steadily on his fingertips for a few seconds before falling into his palm.Holding the ball, he raised his head and looked at Hao Ren disdainfully, and asked, "Can we start, teacher?"

Hao Ren nodded, walked straight to the goal, and hooked his fingers at Li Yang: "Come on."

Li Yang placed the ball well, took a few steps back, and kicked it hard forward.

With a bang, the football hit the goal firmly like a fired shell, and the strong force pulled the net to the longest.

The whole movement was done in one go, and it only took two seconds, and Hao Ren hadn't had time to let go of his hooked fingers.

"Okay!" The crowd erupted into cheers, Li Yang's title of penalty shooter was not for nothing, no matter the boys who came to watch the ball or the nympho girls who came to see Li Yang, they couldn't help but praise.

Standing in front of the goal, Hao Ren, who let go of his hand resentfully, felt a little embarrassed at this moment.This thin-looking boy has strong explosive power, no, I have to be more serious.

The two exchanged positions. With Hao Ren's lesson learned, Li Yang didn't make any extra moves, but seriously prepared for defense, keeping his eyes on Hao Ren's every move.

Li Ziwen shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It's really embarrassing. This Li Yang is usually a fool, but he looks like a different person when he goes on the court. It's not easy to catch his flaws."

Hao Ren glanced around the goal, and finally turned back to Li Yang in front of him.

Li Yang stared closely at Hao Ren's eyes. He could feel that Hao Ren's eyes stopped on the upper left corner of the goal for an extra second.

is it there?Li Yang secretly moved the corner of his mouth, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

Hao Ren took two steps back, charged forward, and shot!

Li Yang exerted strength on his right leg and jumped towards the upper left corner, but just as he took off, his movements stopped abruptly, and he gritted his teeth and screamed inwardly.

Hao Ren's eyes were aimed at the upper left corner, but the ball under his feet was heading to the right.

At this moment, it was too late for Li Yang to pounce to the right, and he could only watch helplessly as the football was stably thrown into the goal at a speed that could only be regarded as normal.

The audience was completely silent, and most of the onlookers didn't know what happened, why Li Yang was so careless, and jumped to the left when he came up.

Only a few people understood Hao Ren's design, and Gao Chengyuan from the school team whispered, "Li Yang has been tricked."

Damn, careless.Li Yang gritted his teeth, Hao Ren's gaze misled his judgment, but he couldn't blame others for his own misjudgment.

When they switched positions, the two passed by, Li Yang said in a low voice: "I won't make the same mistake again."

"Me too." Hao Ren whispered, he really underestimated Li Yang before, but from now on, he won't.

After the first round, the two score, 1 to 1!

The second round of penalty shootout was about to start, Li Yang stared at Hao Ren, who was guarding the goal, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.

Without resorting to any means or any cover-up, Li Yang's second penalty kick went straight to the left of the goal.

Fast, accurate and ruthless.So fast that the opponent has no time to react, so accurate to point and hit, so ruthless that he can't catch it, this is Li Yang's style.

Hao Ren rushed forward to the left, Li Yang's eyes had already told him the direction of the ball.

It's just that it's one thing to know, but another to pounce on it.

Li Yang's goal was near the left goal post. Although Hao Ren made a prediction in advance, the distance was still so far away that he couldn't reach it. Hao Ren swung his left fist violently to meet the flying football.

During the first penalty kick before, Hao Ren had already realized Li Yang's foot strength, but his fingers were still numb with pain after punching him. He rubbed his fist and cursed inwardly, this kid is really cruel.

The football was hit by Hao Ren, deflected, and flew to the left.

The shifted direction still failed to leave the goal range, and the ball went into the net from the edge, but it still went in.

The students onlookers were in an uproar, and there was a lot of discussion like a pot exploded. Even people who don't understand can see that this goal is extremely dangerous.

Hao Ren suppressed the anger in his heart. He was very annoyed that the punch just now failed to hit the ball out of the goal.

On the other side, Li Yang was also a little depressed. Although the ball was scored, it deviated from the established route under Hao Ren's obstruction. This feeling that the football was out of his control made him uneasy.He clearly knew that if Hao Ren's fist was even 0.1 second faster just now, it would have been a different result.

Tan Rong opened her mouth wide in surprise and looked at Hao Ren until Li Ziwen punched her with his arm.

"Do you dare to catch this ball?" Li Ziwen asked.

Tan Rong still opened her mouth wide, and shook her head numbly. If it were her guarding the goal, and Li Yang's strength of the ball came over, let alone catching it, her first reaction might be to run as far away as possible.This teacher is cruel enough to him, doesn't his hand hurt?

Hao Ren and Li Yang switched positions again, neither of them said anything more, their eyes intertwined in silence, both of them had more serious eyes.

This was Hao Ren's second penalty. Standing behind the football, he looked up at the upper left corner of the goal.

Still come to this trick?Li Yang thought bitterly, did he really think that he could eat all over the world with one trick?
Li Yang's sharp eyes stared at Hao Ren fiercely, as if he wanted to see him through.

The smile on the corner of Hao Ren's mouth aroused Li Yang's suspicion.This is a round, he deliberately made me think that he would use the same trick, the last time was a feint, this time, the same situation will not happen.

Still on the left!

Hao Ren took two steps towards the football with his right foot.

The direction of the foot is on the left, that's right.

Before Hao Ren's feet touched the football, Li Yang threw himself to the left.

The football draws a beautiful arc in the air, and goes straight to the position where Li Yang was standing just now, and flies to the center of the goal, without rushing, and falls steadily into the goal.

Li Yang turned around in surprise and looked at the football that seemed to be going through the empty goal, felt aggrieved, and was tricked again.

"Fuck, spoon!" Someone from the school team exclaimed in a low voice.

Spoon penalty kick, which is a shooting technique in football matches, requires certain footwork and strength to kick this kind of ball.The reason why it is called a spoon is because the arc drawn by the football when it flies is similar to the shape of a spoon.

"Spoon" is the most difficult and beautiful kind of lob shot. Its movements are hidden and difficult, and it is a great test of the players' technical and psychological qualities.

Because the spoon wants to score a penalty kick, the most important thing is to deceive the goalkeeper's eyes. If the mental quality is not good and a little flaw is revealed, it is equivalent to sending the ball directly into the goalkeeper's hands.

In this regard, Hao Ren did a very good job. He successfully deceived everyone, including Li Yang, and sent the football into the goal without hindrance.

"What's the matter? I clearly saw that his kick was facing left, but why did he kick it in the middle?" Tan Rong was still at a loss as the ball was already in the net.

"You still don't see it clearly. His footwork is different from usual. Instead of picking, he rubs. You just see the direction of your feet and you are fooled." Li Ziwen explained.

Tan Rong hugged Li Ziwen's arm, and said anxiously: "Sister Wen, I don't know how to read this, what should I do if I encounter it in the future."

"It's okay, you can't easily meet them." Li Ziwen's words revealed a trace of helplessness, "Spoon penalty kicks have very high requirements on the footwork and psychology of the players. If you really meet such an opponent in the game... it will be a study gone."
