National Treasure Striker [Football]

Chapter 22 The Birth of Toutiao

At half-time, the atmosphere in the Arsenal dressing room was fairly relaxed. Although they were still one goal behind, everyone was in high spirits.

The Champions League adopts a two-round system, and the group stage is counted as points, but the goal difference is also important. After all, this is the second criterion to be considered after winning or losing.

They are playing away games, and the away goals are dominant, so the pressure is relatively low, as long as they score as many goals as possible.

At present, Van Persie has scored one goal. Even if they don't score in the future, as long as they defend well, Dortmund must score two goals at their home court to win.

Of course, with Lewandowski's lethality, it is difficult not to concede the ball in the second half.

This is a test of the goalkeeper.

Wenger said a few words briefly and encouraged the boys again.In particular, I want to praise Julian, and remind him not to forget to use his hands when necessary.

The old man was about to roll the roll, but his eyes swept over the disciples one by one, but he couldn't find his target.

"And Julian?"

Everyone with uncomfortable expressions looked behind him.

——Julian, who just came out of the bathroom after a brief rinse, was just behind Wenger, and the Arsenal coach didn't see him.

Wenger turned around and finally understood why the players had subtle expressions.

——Julian, the person he wanted to take care of, was squatting on the ground and pressing his legs.

When Wenger looked at him, he happened to count to "ten", and it was time to switch legs.

If it was just a simple leg press to open the ligament, everyone's reaction would not be so great. The key teammate is not simply a leg press——

Don't normal people usually press one side of the leg, straighten up and then squat down to the other side?

Julian, no, he switched to the other leg for convenience. He stretched his knee-bending left leg towards the ground, put his legs in a split-horse position, and at the same time changed his right leg from a straightened state to a straight one. Bend your knees, put your right foot on the ground, and stand up.

The whole movement of switching legs and pressing is natural.

Everyone: "..."

It's so damn labor-saving, and it wiped the floor clean by the way.

Mr. Teaching Assistant sees through everything, his face is expressionless.

The boss still wants Julian to defend the goal with his hands in the second half?

Others don't know, he doesn't know Julian yet?He can press his legs, probably for the convenience of kicking the ball in the second half!

The atmosphere at Arsenal is extremely amusing. In contrast, the dressing room of the leading Dortmund looks a little nervous.Those who didn't know thought they were behind.

Dortmund coach Klopp had a serious face, telling the players what they should pay attention to in the first half, especially emphasizing the need to mark Van Persie well.

"In the long time I have been in contact with football, I have rarely seen a striker who can appear in the middle of the midfield and in the penalty area at the same time in a game. Many times we see Van Persie will appear in the midfield. He has the ball, but once the ball hits the danger zone of the penalty area, he is the first one to appear."

"You should know how to do it." Uncle Zha gave the Dortmund defenders a wave of key points, listen carefully, the test will be in the second half.

They are at home. According to the rules of the two-round system, under the premise of winning, it is better to score more goals than to concede less goals. Although the points system is adopted, Arsenal and Dortmund are still the seeded teams in this group, and basically they are steadily advancing to the knockout rounds. Yes, but you can't guarantee that people will walk in football, and they won't overturn at all.

After spending a lot of time on Van Persie, Uncle Zha mentioned Julian again.

He looked at his lover Lewandowski, who was sitting on a stool with a towel around his neck, and lowered his head wondering what he was thinking: "Robert."

The 23-year-old looked up at his manager.

"You played against Arsenal's substitute goalkeeper in the first half," Klopp said. "How does it feel?"

"He is very powerful." Lewand answered seriously.

Klopp and him looked at each other for a few seconds, and he roughly knew that Lewand had an idea: "So what characteristics does he have that deserve your attention?"

Lewandowski's drooping eyes became brighter, and the expression on his face suddenly became vivid: "In the 20 minutes he played in goal in the first half, he kept clearing with his feet, including penalties."

Klopp nodded, tapped a pen on the small whiteboard, drew a simple goal, and at the same time drew two circles on the left and right upper corners of the goal: "In the second half, you should kick here."

He then scanned all the people present: "You too."

15 minutes passed quickly, and the second half of the game began.

Arsenal's lineup has not changed much. The professor has never made too many changes in the middle of the game, and he has not changed the conditions.

Dortmund's lineup began to compress.

The commentator wondered: "Dortmund has a one-goal advantage, does Klopp want to shrink the defense?" This is not like his style.

They soon discovered that was not the case.

Dortmund's midfield, no, it should be said that except for Lewandowski, the 9 players on the field are more active.

As long as Arsenal's players get the ball, they will immediately catch up to the siege.Start to counterattack when you grab it, and pass the ball to the frontcourt as soon as possible.Retreat if you can't grab it, don't love to fight, but carry out traditional defense.

The scene was deadlocked for 10 minutes.Julian watched from afar as Van Persie got the ball and was double-teamed by two or three people and had to lose the ball.

This situation... Julian, who was standing idly in front of the door with his hips akimbo thought about it, and felt a bit like a high-ranking press.

Pressing in the high position is a physical job that requires a lot of initiative(?) from the team.

However, it is unexpectedly suitable for a Bundesliga team like Dortmund.

Dortmund players are young, can run, and can eat raw with their physical strength.Moreover, high-position pressing is a very effective tactic against a team like Arsenal. Arsenal players are more skillful. Facing Dortmund's embarrassment, they are somewhat exhausted.

Julian squinted his eyes, and Dort got the ball and started to attack.

Arsenal seems to be weak at present, but as long as they survive this period, in the last 20 minutes of the game, Dortmund will only become exhausted-because the high press is very exhausting.

Of course, it is not only necessary to delay until the end, there are other ways——

The tempo on the field suddenly accelerated, the ball was kicked to the middle circle, and everyone's heart trembled.

The commentator said excitedly: "Lewandowski cut in from the right! He got the ball! Lewandowski! He entered the penalty area! He seems to be adjusting his shooting posture—"

The shot will be a long shot. In addition to facing Lewand, it also happens to take a picture of Julian standing motionless in front of the door.

fan:? ? ?

Lewandowski is about to shoot, what is Arsenal's goalkeeper doing?daze? !

Arsenal's assistant coach Pat began to sweat on his forehead.

Will Lewandowl rush to the goal now? In the first half, he suffered two losses inexplicably. In the second half, he changed his method——

Tens of thousands of shots, the first goal!

He took a good look at the position, took a long shot, and aimed at the upper right dead corner of the goal!

Isn't Julian not fond of using his hands?He may really be suitable as a striker, right?He can block it with his legs when he runs in front of him, but the goal is much higher than a person. If he shoots at a place higher than his forehead, don't you believe he can use his legs?

Uncle Zha said, how to deal with Van Persie, how to deal with Julian, the second half will be tested, Lewand's notes are very serious!

The ball flew towards Arsenal's goal at an extremely fast speed!

Everyone stared at the goal and the figure in front of the goal, holding their breath!

"Hop the ball! Hit the goal!!"

The ball was approaching, and a question was planted in everyone's mind, can this No. 88 still use his legs?

However, they were horrified to find that the boy, he still didn't respond!

"Bang!" The sound of the ball hitting the crossbar was captured, the goal shook for a while, and then the ball was bounced off.

At this time, the figure in front of the door was finally moved by face!

He is like a cheetah that has been charged for a long time, when the prey becomes alert and moves rapidly, he rises from the ground!

The ball that bounced straight down was his prey!

The lad jumped very high, and at the same time his left leg was raised to an incredible height, almost parallel to the ground!

Then, he just swept his foot on the ball!

"Oh!"

There was another loud bang, the ball hit his stretched instep, and then was swept away by his strength that was not inferior to kicking his big foot!

Please note that it is sweeping, not kicking!

Crowd: ? ? ?

What the fuck? !

No one cared about where the ball landed for the first time, whether it was an Arsenal player or a Dortmund player who caught the ball-because everyone was staring at Arsenal's goal dumbfounded!

Lewand's heart sank immediately. Others were shocked by Julian's movement range, but he was paying attention to another matter.

Why did Julian not move until the ball bounced off the crossbar?Did he know he was going to hit the crossbar?

Coincidence right?

If it is not a coincidence, it is really terrible!

Others were shocked by the way Julian made the save.

——Is this fucking a rescue?Is this fucking martial arts shooting?

——Do you think you are a reverse Ibrahimovic?Born with a pair of sweeping legs, the kind who doesn't pretend to be forceful and doesn't need money?

Being a dancer is different!

After the commentary was shocked, he was still very dedicated: "Felix really made full use of his second career, and his saving actions are amazing. This reminds me of another person, he also has different hobbies, and he Take that hobby and apply it on the court as well.”

"He's playing in Serie A now and he won the Super Cup for the team at the start of the season - hey, you guessed who he is, man."

"Too obvious, you're talking about Zlatan Ibrahimovic," said the partner.

Julian's every move in front of the goal shows that he has good dancing skills; and the Ibrahimovic mentioned by the commentators-he is a five-segment black belt player in Taekwondo and a tall center forward.

So how he will play, everyone understands.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a Swedish striker, a representative figure of martial arts and football, retreats and shoots halberds at the gate, advances and sweeps thousands of troops. People in the world call the three-surname domestic slave (crossed out) Da Fengxian.

Ibrahimovic has tried this move, sweeping the shot, majestic, captured the hearts of the entire Swedish people with one kick.

Today, a similar move was used by a little-known Arsenal goalkeeper!

He is not well-known, and this statement must be temporary. In the modern era with such advanced Internet communication technology, after today, there must be no one in the Premier League and Bundesliga who does not know him!

However, smelling the sadness and seeing the tears are still behind.

In the next ten minutes, Julian made several clearances with his feet one after another.

Some fans have already begun to bet on whether Arsenal will use their hands in this game.

"God, he reminds me of a juggler," said England's commentator, recovering his surprise, "but his movements didn't strike me as ridiculous."

Everyone agrees that although Arsenal's No. 88 doesn't like to use his hands, even if he uses his feet to clear the siege, he does not force it.

It can be seen that he didn't intend to use only his legs, and his movements looked very fancy. Those who know penalty kicks can still feel that it is his habit.

people's habits.

What a horrible statement.

It's so aggressive to clear a siege with your feet, but it's still good to clear a siege with your hands?

It seems that no ball is worth his hands!

Old man Wenger on the sidelines was silent for a long time, then turned to ask the assistant coach: "Have we systematically explained the goalkeeping rules to Julian?"

The teaching assistant was also silent.

Julian doesn't know when the goalkeeper can use his hands and when he can't?

When can a goalkeeper not use his hands?

One is that after leaving the big penalty area, he acts like a defender on the field, and he will get a red card with his hands; the other is to receive a return pass from his teammates, and at this time he will also get a card with his hands.

The Arsenal defenders were crying, and the vice-captain Vermaelen almost knelt down for their children.

They feel that they don't have to do anything, they just need to watch the fancy performance in front of Julian's gate.

Dortmund's frontcourt players are even more confused.

After failing to enter a few times, they even began to doubt their own skills.

The camera kept showing the two coaches standing on the sidelines. Klopp had a serious face, and Wenger was quite calm. The old man may be practicing some kind of kung fu that will not collapse.

Some fans whispered:

"I don't see that Wenger is this kind of person."

"Wenger really doesn't sign it, and signing it scares people to death."

"Is it possible that the temperature difference signing is finally good? I am quite optimistic about Arsenal's No. 88."

65 minutes into the game, Julian looked at the time and felt that the heat was about the same.

The teams on both sides are at a stalemate, and it is still 2-1 until now, and no one has scored first.

Dortmund's high press is very effective, even if he can't score, it fully limits Arsenal.

Julian could see that their physical strength had begun to decline.

The decline in physical strength is a signal that Arsenal can prepare to do something.

However, before that——

When the ball was kicked out by him and the players over there were in full swing, Julian touched his screaming stomach with his right hand, raised his left hand, and waved towards Wenger.

His action showed that there was something wrong, and the defender closest to Julian ran over to help Julian pass the news.Julian is the goalkeeper and cannot leave the goal casually.

The young man who was acting as the microphone ran to Julian's place, and saw him put his ear on Julian's mouth. After hearing him say a few words, his expression became a little strange.

... an indescribable expression.

But he still does his duty.With a solemn face, he immediately ran to the sidelines and conveyed Julian's meaning to Wenger.

Both Wenger and the assistant coach heard what he said, and he also told the fourth official that the referee still needs to know about this kind of thing.

His volume was not controlled, and everyone nearby heard it:

"Julian said he was hungry."

Wenger: "..."

Teaching assistant: "..."

The fourth official: "..."

Klopp: "..."

Be hungry if you are hungry, it’s okay to be speechless.It is not the case that there are no players who are hungry in the middle of playing football. At this time, appropriate supplies can be provided, and the referee will not allow it.

The key point is the teaching assistant with a clear mind: "I said to guard the goal with my hands! I just don't remember! How can you use your hands to work hard with your feet?! Don't you feel hungry if you use your hands?"

The voice of the defensive player and his voice were completely transmitted to the ears of the referee and the two linesmen through the headset of the fourth official.

So the three referees heard it too.

The referee was running well, but suddenly he staggered and almost fell.

In order to facilitate UEFA to monitor the conversations of the referees and ensure the fairness of the game, the communication between the referees will be recorded.At the same time, in order to facilitate the TV broadcast, the commentators will soon receive news from the referee about the penalty of the game.

So the staff responsible for delivering the message heard it too.

There is a delay in the broadcast, but soon, the commentators who broadcast the Champions League group match in various places will also get the news.

Once you come and go, the whole world will almost know it.

Why do they seem to have witnessed the birth of Tomorrow Toutiao?And the culprit was still fearless in front of the goal, looking this way from time to time.

Referee & two linesmen & fourth official & Klopp & staff: "..."

... Please, stop flirting.
