Chapter 140

Less than half an hour into the game, Eindhoven led by a goal at home, and it seemed that everything was going in the expected direction.

After scoring the goal, Eindhoven played harder and harder. Watching Kežman bring the ball to the front of Parma's penalty area again, Thuram's heart was ignited.

If it wasn't for Batman to force himself with speed before, he would not have given the opponent a corner kick with a shovel, and there would be no refraction of Oye into the net later.Thinking of this, Thuram suddenly shifted his center of gravity forward, intending to press close to him.

But when he moved, Batman moved too.

Kairiman is as quiet as a virgin, and moves like a rabbit.With the ball left and right, he kept fiddled with the ball, successfully making Thuram think he was going to make a bottom pass.However, when Thuram's center of gravity shifted, Kezhiman's figure flickered, the ball was buckled under his feet, and he suddenly changed to cut inward, opening a gap.

Seeing this, Sancini hurriedly came to defend, but Batman pushed the ball with the outside of his foot a second before his arrival, and dialed the ball to the penalty area.

Van Bommel, who kept up in the middle, understood it, leaned against the defender next to him with his body, squeezed out the gap, and volleyed directly with his leg.

The ball flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal with thunderous force.

The fans behind the gate were already ready to stand up and cheer, but in the blink of an eye, a piece of latex embedded with green blocked the way of the ball.

Buffon gritted his teeth and straightened his arms. After all, the spinning ball failed to break through his five fingers, and regrettably flew out of the crossbar.After landing, Buffon quickly rolled up, and after seeing the ball was safe, he waved his fist vigorously, declaring control of the goal.

The fans of the home team who were about to cheer in the audience lamented for a while, as if they did not expect that this sure-fire goal would be saved by the opposing teenager with such a "flying fairy".

It was another corner kick from the left. Van Bommel stood in the corner kick area and waved to his teammates in the penalty area.Like a farmer who picked up a dead rabbit, Oye stood outside the penalty area, waiting for the ball to be hit by the goalkeeper.

The slippery ball tore through the air, spinning and flying into the penalty area.Kezhiman and Romedal were dragged to death by the opponent's defender, but they had no choice but to take off on the spot, planning to try their luck. The 1.9-meter-high Kevin Hovland is even more targeted. The central defender's header ability can be seen from his height.

Just when people were guessing who would hit the ball, a pair of goalkeeper gloves took the ball steadily in the air and sent the ball into his arms.

Looking at Buffon lying on the ground and protecting the ball on his chest, PSV's offensive staff shook their heads and walked towards the outside of the penalty area regretfully.And some backcourt personnel were trotting, wanting to return to their positions as soon as possible.

It was just an ordinary save, but it became the horn of Parma's defensive counterattack.

The Eindhoven players were surprised to find that Parma's overall formation retreated again and was compressed into a ball.However, after the Eindhoven team continued to go deeper, they found that the opponent was not a ball of plasticine that was kneaded by others, but a spring ready to go.

The young Buffon stood in front of the goal, and within ten minutes at the end of the first half, he resolved eight threatening attacks from PSV in a row.At the moment of this offensive and defensive transition, Parma's striker took off in two directions. The top scorer of the European Championship from Serbia and the transfer accessory of Crespo flew directly to the backcourt of Eindhoven along two sides.

For a while, Eindhoven's defense didn't know whether it was defending Milosevic, who had played for the four-nation national team in history, or the Portuguese Conceicao. If the midfielders hadn't returned to the defense, Eindhoven might have been equalized by their opponents in the first half.

After a few rounds of running back and forth between the two restricted areas, even Van Bommel, who is physically strong, supported his knees and panted heavily, taking advantage of the free kick in the frontcourt that he had finally won to recover his exhausted physical strength.

At the front of the penalty area, 24 and [-] meters away from the goal line, Van Bommel watched the young player Buffon on the opposite side roll his hands into a trumpet shape, and directed the wall in Italian that he did not understand.

The first half was coming to an end, and the wall in front of Van Bommel was full of 5 people.Maybe the referee calls the game over the moment the ball hits the wall, or flies off the baseline.Therefore, all Parma players returned to their own half, and there were as many as 9 people crowded in the penalty area.

John Vogel stood beside Van Bommel and did not fight for the ball in the penalty area.Seeing two people standing still in front of the ball, Buffon couldn't judge who should play the ball.The referee whistled, and the players on both sides immediately entered a tense state.

Van Bommel and Vogel hadn't moved yet, and the crowd in the penalty area began to move slowly under the pull of each other.Buffon stared at the ball on the ground, watching Vogel in front of the ball start running and swinging his legs.

In the line of sight that was blocked one after another, Buffon could only see staggered figures and Vogel's red and white jersey.However, what about the ball?Where did the ball go?Anyone hit the ball?
Before Buffon could react, Vogel, who was fake running, lightly cushioned the ball with his heel, and flicked the ball horizontally.Then use his body to block Buffon's sight.

The moment Vogel got out of the way, Van Bommel had already swung his thigh.The ball, like an off-string arrow, directly crossed the rushing wall and flew towards Parma's gate.

The 1.9-meter-one Buffon roared, and made a save action based on intuition alone.Stretch your body obliquely in the air, and raise your left hand high.In an instant, the ball met Buffon's left hand at the same coordinate point of the Philips Stadium.However, the leather football was no match for the goalkeeper's steel body. It flicked upwards and flew sideways out of the goal frame.

Parma full-back Torrisi rushed to the point where the ball landed at the first time, swung his legs vigorously before the baseline, and drove the ball to the frontcourt.

Watching the ball flying in the air, the referee blew the halftime whistle.Whether it is Eindhoven or Parma, the players on both sides breathed a sigh of relief for the first time.If there is no referee's whistle, the players on both sides may run to the Eindhoven half at the fastest speed for a new round of offense and defense.

Graetz was on the sidelines, hitting every player off the field, as a sign of encouragement.It wasn't until the last player left the field that Gretz followed the team and walked into the locker room.

However, as soon as the door of the locker room was closed, Gretz found that apart from Van Bommel and a few players with strong physical strength, together with the goalkeeper Fréjus, they all collapsed on the chair and gasped.

Playing football on a rainy day not only requires twice as much concentration as usual, but also consumes more energy than usual.Facing a Serie A team known for its defense, Eindhoven's biggest achievement in the first half seemed not to score a goal, but to keep the opponent from scoring a goal.

0 to 0 is obviously not a good result, and 1 to 0 can only be reluctantly accepted by the players and coaches.Parma's away defense is so strong, so what about the home defense?Gretz and the team members couldn't imagine it at all.So in Philips, Gretz's goal is to win Parma by at least two goals, because no one wants to attack with all his might in that away game known for its defense.

Bai Xiaotian and the substitutes handed sports drinks and some energy-enhancing fruits to each starting player, and the locker room instantly heard the sound of Adam's apple bulging.A few minutes later, a question came from the corner, "Are all Italian goalkeepers so strong now?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the locker room fell into deep thought.
