Chapter 26 Consecutive Goals
In the 23rd minute of the first half of the game, Chen Xiao used his personal skills to get a direct free kick in front of the frontcourt penalty area, about 24 meters away from the goal. This was one of the few chances Mainz got in the first half.As the team's current best candidate on the field, Chen Xiao stood in front of the football without hesitation, counted his steps, took a few deep breaths, then silently watched Duisburg lined up against the wall nervously, and thought about how to kick this free kick. The penalty point is probably a little to the right of the middle of the goal. A distance of about 24 meters is more suitable for a clever shot, because the arc closer to the middle is too small to pass through the wall, and the arc is too large so there is no room for it to fall.

Standing Chen Xiao stared blankly at the direction of the goal. This goal is very important for Mainz. If it can be scored, then the opponent's iron formation is meaningless. If it cannot be scored, it will definitely greatly increase the opponent's momentum.

At this moment, the referee took a few steps back, blew the whistle and signaled to Chen Xiao that it was time for a free throw. In everyone's eyes, Chen Xiao's run-up speed was not fast. One, two, three steps before the free throw, Chen Xiao had just completed the number of steps that he had measured before the free throw. Chen Xiao came to the ball and lightly flicked his ankle with his right foot.

The moment Chen Xiao took the kick, the goalkeeper of Duisburg jumped towards the direction of the football flight. The goalkeeper stretched his body in the air to the best condition. He tried his best to save the ball, but the angle of the ball that Chen Xiao took was too tricky. The goalkeeper's body had stretched to the limit, and the fingertips still didn't touch the ball.The ball flew right into the net at the junction of the post and the crossbar.

The ball went in!A dead corner in the absolute sense, not to mention Duisburg's goalkeeper, even some famous goalkeepers in the world may not be able to catch it.

1 to 0. In the 24th minute of the game, Chen Xiao used a direct free kick to give Mainz a one-goal lead in the away game, which also meant that Duisburg's iron barrel formation was meaningless.This is also Chen Xiao's second goal in the league. Chen Xiao, who has scored in two consecutive games, accidentally broke another record.

Chen Xiao, who scored the goal, stood on the spot without any movement, raising his hands high, while other Mainz players ran up to hug Chen Xiao one after another.

The local fans in Mainz who did not go to the scene cheered for Chen Xiao in the bar.At a critical moment, a hero needs to stand up, and Chen Xiao is like a hero born in Mainz. He has only represented Mainz in three games, and Chen Xiao has won the love of Mainz fans.

The head coach of Duisburg stared dumbfounded at the Mainz players who were celebrating on the field. He had already made sufficient preparations before the game. Against Mainz's 433 formation, he shrunk the defense very much. In this way, when the Mainz players reached a key position in the frontcourt, there was very little space for them to move around. Moreover, he did not underestimate Chen Xiao's fast speed and good skills against Chen Xiao. He also specially arranged a player with better explosive power to mark Chen Xiao on the right .

This arrangement did pay off after the start of the game, but it was Chen Xiao's inward movement that made all his arrangements meaningless.If it is true, as the world says, the best weapon to break a dense defense is a free kick.Now the situation on the field suddenly put the head coach of Duisburg in a dilemma.

The referee stopped the Mainz players celebrating on the field and urged the game to restart.

The game restarted at the whistle of the referee. Mainz, who had a one-goal lead, immediately fell back from the offensive formation to the 4213 counterattack formation, and under the signal of Klopp, they also retracted the formation a little.

However, the situation on the court did not develop as Klopp hoped. After Duisburg fell behind, they did not attack. They just strengthened the pressure in the midfield, so the situation on the court completely turned into a hand-to-hand fight and a wrestling match.

Moreover, after Duisburg suffered a goal loss, they tried to advance the foul as much as possible and did not foul within 30 meters of the goal. From the 26th minute until the 43rd minute of the game, the referee had shown a total of 5 yellow cards, and 5 of these 4 yellow cards belonged to Duisburg.

Chen Xiao was pulled to the ground by the opponent once again. Although the injury was not serious, the ball was destroyed. Since Duisburg adopted this style of play, Chen Xiao was the player who suffered the most violations on the field, because among the entire Mainz frontcourt players, Chen Xiao's ability to protect the ball was the best, and it was also because of his free kick that Mainz took the lead.Chen Xiao, who fell to the ground, was pulled up by Nai, bent down and adjusted his shin guards.

"Rosen, these bastards are too dirty and rascal."

"Yes, but there's no way around it. These people don't attack, they just keep their heads down and act like turtles. As soon as you get the ball, he fouls. It's not easy." Knight was also very annoyed. He had never seen such a rascal before. If you are behind, you should be guarding your ass.

"We have to find a way to mess with them, like this, you come, then we will do this..." Chen Xiao pulled Knight to discuss with the teammates next to him.

"Anyway, the first half is almost over, so we can do it." Knight nodded after hearing Chen Xiao's idea.

"Okay, go talk to other people and cooperate." Chen Xiao nodded.

After hearing Chen Xiao's words, Knight and his teammates gestured at the others, and whispered something to their teammates.

Klopp on the sidelines saw the changes in the players on the field and turned to chat with Hoffman.

"What do they want to do?"

"I don't know. It seems that Chen Xiao has something to do. Let's take a look. Anyway, the first half is coming to an end."

Klopp didn't say ha, but nodded and watched the changes on the field.
