There is a dream called football

Chapter 69 Unexpected Ending
The goalkeeper pointed, and one person retreated from the wall, and the opponent immediately pressed another person. Helpless, Team B could only press back to the wall. Otherwise, if the opponent passed the ball, they would not be offside at all, and it might cause several people to face a goalkeeper.

Team B lined up a 6-person wall, and Deco stood in front of the ball. This ball is probably a curve ball that went around the wall.

To jump or not to jump?
This requires tacit understanding.

In the end, everyone decided - not to jump.

After taking a few steps back and standing still, Deco started a run-up, a small run-up, and did not exert force until the last two steps, like whipping a ball, he kicked the outside of the ball, and the arch of his foot completely covered the ball.

After the ball passed over the head of the wall, it began to fall rapidly, and the trajectory was like a rainbow. This ball is not much better than Beckham.

The goalkeeper can only pay attention to such a ball, and it is impossible to save it.

Boom.

The sighs of the fans echoed in the Dragon Stadium.

The ball was a little higher, rubbed against the net and flew out of the bottom line.

*****
The referee held up the sign for stoppage time - 4 minutes of stoppage time.

At the end of the game, both sides wanted to win, and Morais even used the last substitution spot, replacing the main forward McCarthy and replacing Delray.

But it was the B team that took the first opportunity. Raven broke through from the side, and Valente kicked the ball out of the baseline.

corner kick.

Valle got a corner kick at the last moment, itching in his heart, will it be a lore?

Valle wants to win, he dreams of it, and everyone in the B team thinks about it, because if this kind of game is won, it is the kind that can last a lifetime.

So Valle gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk. He waved the team to press him, and put all his eggs in one basket for this corner kick.

It's a risk, but at the end of the game, it's totally worth it.

The penalty area is densely packed with people, both sides know what the opponent is thinking, and Morais is also very nervous, a weak team is playing against a strong team, set kicks are often a good opportunity to score, and once the ball is lost at this time, there is no time.

Several big men in the team were at the front, Li Qiao and Lei Wen were in ambush at the back, and Alfonso went to kick off.

Alfonso stretched out two fingers. This is the No. [-] set-piece tactic, that is, the post-pass, and everyone in the team understands it.

After a small run-up, Alfonso kicked the ball high and floating. Just as the ball passed the front point and the middle, the substitute goalkeeper Bruno Bella jumped high, lightened Su's arm, and punched the ball out of the penalty area.

"not good."

The B team realized that something was wrong and the ball fell to Pedro Mendes, who immediately passed it to Deco.

Porto's two forwards quickly plugged in like arrows from the string, forming a 4-on-4 frontcourt situation.

Carlos Alberto and McCarthy both ran out of great positions and Deco had a lot of options and that's the situation he's best at handling.

A low kick passed to Carlos Alberto, but instead of taking the ball, he only attracted the defense, and the ball passed between his legs and came to the feet of McCarthy on the back point.

The South African shooter faced the single-handedly, calmly and calmly, and pushed the far corner with one kick.

At this point, Team B's defense line retreated, and the goal had already been scored, many people knelt down, fatigue and frustration, this kind of result made people collapse.

Li Qiao faced his own goal and stood there for a long time. He didn't kneel down or sit down, but stood quietly. The feeling of being killed was really uncomfortable.

Football is different from other sports. Basketball also has lore, but there are not so many. Generally, losing is a process, but football is different. A cold shot may decide a game. (such as the kick in the 2016 European Cup final)
30 seconds after the re-kick-off, the game was over. Team B lost the game 2-3, unconvinced, but lost.

Several young people were sitting on the ground crying, the eldest brother Maniche went to comfort them, while Li Qiao stood silently, when someone touched him lightly.

Turning around, it was Deco.

The Brazilian is very shy, he doesn't know how Li Qiao's Portuguese is?So I asked to exchange jerseys in broken English.

"It's okay, my Portuguese is not bad."

"Well, I'm relieved."

Taking Li Qiao's jersey, Deco smiled and said, "I hope to see you again soon."

Li Qiao knew what the other party meant, so he smiled and said nothing.

The chatterbox between Valle and Mores can be opened after the game.

Morris laughed, "You almost ruined my job."

"Haha, if you give me Deco, I think I can win three of you."

"Look at what you said, if you give me Inzaghi, I can get you five more."

"Haha." Valai spread his hands, "Where did I get Inzaghi to give it to you."

After chatting, the two didn't forget that the real big boss of the team was still at the side, so Valle walked over to say hello.

Mourinho is different from Morais. In private, this person is quite strange. Mourinho patted Valle and smiled: "Your goal has been achieved."

"Jose, I don't have any purpose, I just want to play well."

"Hehe." Mourinho talked about him, "I think Fabio has improved now, and he is also active in running. This attitude is very good."

"Yes, he should be closer to the goal. I didn't arrange it properly before."

Valle waited for Mourinho to praise Li Qiao, but he never said a word until he finally turned and left.

Valai chuckled in his heart, "What an old fox."

*****
The game was lost, but the atmosphere in the locker room was not sad, and the expression on Valle's face was also calm.

"Boys, you're playing better than I thought to be honest."

This is not a lie. If everyone knew the result in advance before the game, they might still be happy.

But the process is more frustrating than the result.

"Actually, we have a chance." Dada said silently.

"Yes, we had chances, but that's football, we lost, and the opponent was better at creating chances and taking chances, that's the gap."

Valle didn't try to comfort these players too much. Failure is inevitable on the road to growth. Looking back at this loss after a few months is wealth.

When they got on the bus and left the Dragon Stadium, many people couldn't help but look back, looking forward to the day when they would come back.

And some of them obviously have more chances than others, Li Qiao also looked back at the court, full of expectations in his heart.

When you have played in a five-star stadium, it is very difficult for your heart to go back.

"I'll be back." Li Qiao thought to himself as he watched the Dragon Stadium drifting away.
