I Just Can Score

at this time.

now.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the referee standing in front of the goal.

The law enforcement referee in this game, named Steven Dole, is a handsome middle-aged white man with short hair. He is too handsome to say the least, but compared with most of the referees, he is definitely a good-looking man. , with the appearance of a standard mature uncle, he also has a bit of capital to attract young girls.

It doesn't seem to matter.

Dole thinks it is very important. His main job is a policeman. Since his divorce three years ago, he has not been able to find a girlfriend he likes. He hopes to be a young girl. Eighteen years old is just right. It is acceptable to be a few years older, and of course the appearance must be very beautiful.

cough cough...

Probably every man thinks so.

Relying solely on his mature and handsome appearance, it is still too difficult to attract young girls, because he is no longer 20 years old, but more than twice as old as 40 years old.

Dole is very aware of this, and the deputy law enforcement referee is very important.

Dole hopes that he can rely on law enforcement to become more and more famous, and at the same time earn more pounds to support him in finding a young and beautiful girlfriend.

Dole has been doing a good job.

Since he officially entered the professional league stage when he was in charge of England's third division league, his career as a referee has been improving. He has officiated the League One, the English Championship, and the Premier League. In just six years, he has achieved a quadruple jump. , Immediately hope to enter the Champions League, and even enter the World Cup level competition.

Now Dole is in trouble, but he realizes there is also an opportunity.

The complex situation in front of him can make accurate judgments, and the outside world will definitely praise him. The praise for his law enforcement ability is second, the most important thing is to increase the exposure rate, and he will become a famous person.

In the 21st century, fame means money as well as external attractiveness.

Dole was even a little excited in his distress. He suppressed his inner emotions and carefully reminded himself what to do-to determine what happened.

Although what he sees in front of him can be clearly understood, he can't just look at the surface of anything. Even for things that have been determined, he needs to show caution and seriousness.

Let people know that his final decision is the result of careful consideration.

Dole beckoned to Friedel, and Friedel handed the ball over.

Dole checked the ball carefully. He was very sure that the football was damaged, and the air leak was serious, and there was no air in it.

Is there a hole in the gut?

how is this possible?

Dole was very surprised. Counting decades ago, the ball was damaged occasionally in the game, but after entering the 21st century, the development of football production technology has reached a certain level, and there are very few balls in the game. There will be read damage. Looking at all European leagues, including cups, they may not be able to meet together in a year, and even a few years are very difficult. He has not heard of it in recent years. .

With the football so badly damaged, the odds are even slimmer.

Then.

The football was damaged during the flight. It was very coincidental in the middle, because the damage changed its direction and fell directly into the opponent's goal.

Has something similar happened?

Dordo carefully searched the memory in his mind, and found that no similar situation had happened at all, not even in a hundred years of history, so how should he be punished now?

He hesitated.

After a few seconds of thinking, Dole decided not to make a penalty for the time being, but to discuss with other referees. Soon several referees gathered together and began to discuss the relevant rules--

I remember the situation where the football was damaged. It should be a penalty kick at the point where the football was damaged and fell.

But the point where the football fell was inside the goal? Do you want Newcastle United to take another penalty?

Then heavy punishment?

Kick-offs, goal kicks, corner kicks, free kicks, or penalty kicks, throw-ins will only result in heavy penalties. He shoots in normal games.

This should be regarded as an external force factor?

But it is not a human factor. The rule is that the ball enters the goal, the offensive side does not foul, and the referee does not call a stop, it should be considered a goal.

but……

Blackburn is too unlucky!

The referee team had some discussions, but they still couldn't come to a conclusion. Everything still depends on the referee Dole. He walked back from the sidelines, glanced at the goalkeeper Friedel, took a deep breath, and then blew the whistle. Point to the middle circle at the same time.

The meaning of that action couldn't be more obvious-the goal is valid!

Hula...

Excited shouts erupted from the surrounding stands, and every Newcastle fan was celebrating enthusiastically. In their view, this was more meaningful than an ordinary goal.

It is not worth bragging that a soccer ball leaks air during flight and leads to a goal, but how many times have similar accidents happened? Anyway, they couldn't think of it.

Being able to see such a goal is enough for them to talk about it for a long time.

This is also one of the important reasons why Dole made the penalty.

In fact, Dole has thought about another penalty method, which will leave the outside world speechless, and that is to award Newcastle United a penalty kick.

This penalty method will satisfy many people, and it can be regarded as a referee's balancing method, but it will also kill a classic goal in Premier League history.

Will the outside world praise him then?

No!

As far as English football is concerned, neutrality cannot be praised. A good old man is not liked. The media will definitely criticize him wildly, and his peers will feel that he killed a classic goal for the sake of balance.

When people talk about this goal, they will say that the referee Dole invalidated the goal for the sake of balance.

He will definitely be affected.

Between the praise of the outside world and the criticism of the outside world, Doer decisively chose the former. As for the unlucky Blackburn, who made them so unlucky?

Who cares about them?

Blackburn should and should blame football, not him as the referee.

————

Newcastle United did not celebrate the goal.

Zhen Shaolong's face was full of surprise, as if he had never expected to encounter such a situation, The ball went in? I thought it would go out of bounds. What a surprise!

The other teammates were even more surprised than him--

This ball is too fake. You can score like this, but the football is leaking?

Great luck!

I don't think I'll see another one in my life! Gremi finally added, I really hope it's me who scored the goal, so that after I retire, I will have the capital to brag...

Toogay thought so too.

Although he couldn't defend Zhen Shaolong, Tu Gai was not too disappointed when he found out that the opponent scored such a goal, but was very excited in his heart.

win or lose?

For a veteran who is about to retire, winning or losing is not important at all, because Blackburn will definitely not be able to win the league championship, and he will not be able to achieve any honor with the team.

Now that he can personally experience such a goal, he doesn't think it's a big deal if he didn't defend against Zhen Shaolong. This experience is enough for him to brag about for several years.

The other Blackburn players could only smile wryly.

Who can they blame?

Newcastle United?

Referee?

Zhen Shaolong who scored the goal?

No.

They want to blame football, and blame the sponsor of football - Nike!

The final game ended 2-1.

With an 'unexpected' goal, Newcastle United defeated Blackburn at home and successfully scored three points, but after the game, the focus of media discussion had nothing to do with the outcome of the game.

Everyone is talking about the last goal.

To the regret of the media reporters, Zhen Shaolong did not accept the interview. Just after the game ended, he quickly returned to the locker room and disappeared.

At the press conference, coach Allardyce talked about the goal, It was a very lucky goal, but football games are affected by accidental factors.

That's the beauty of football.

No one knows what will happen in the game, so fans will come to watch the game. If the result is doomed because of strength factors, no one will come to watch the game.

It is rare for Allardyce to say such philosophical words, and many media have reproduced and quoted them.

Simultaneously.

Blackburn felt very unhappy.

It was supposed to be a tie game, but they lost a point due to the accidental factor of the broken football. Any point is very important to Blackburn. They are currently ranked seventh in the league and are eligible for European competitions next season.

If because of this point, the qualification for the European competition is lost, the impact will definitely be great.

Blackburn immediately took action. They directly sued Nike, the football sponsor, to court, demanding that Nike pay a significant amount of compensation.

Thirty million pounds!

That's Blackburn's asking price.

The football was damaged during the game, which dealt a huge blow to Nike's product image.

That in itself is a huge loss.

There was a goal in the middle, which affected the result of the game, and they were also involved in trouble.

The British Economic News analyzed the impact of various aspects in detail, and finally concluded that this will bring at least 20 million pounds of losses to Nike, which does not include compensation for Blackburn.

Zhen Shaolong's shot not only helped Newcastle United win three points, but more importantly, kicked away more than 20 million pounds.

If Nike had a choice, they would rather use gold to cast a football and give it to Zhen Shaolong than face the embarrassing situation right now.

Now……

What they will have to do immediately is to replace a batch of footballs for the Premier League, Serie A, and Bundesliga, confirm the quality of the footballs, and at the same time investigate the cause of the damage in detail...

For Nike, it's just the beginning, they have a lot to do!
