Chapter 151 Suspected penalty kick(2/3)

"You are the best genius I've ever seen in football." This is what Dad said to him the night before he signed with Warren Dam.

I scored so many goals, but none of them were scored for you and mom. Now I really want to score a goal for you, dad. But...

Zhang Jun raised his right ankle and hit the football.

But the football did not fall into the empty gate, but drew an arc and flew directly out of the crossbar.

"Woo—" San Siro sighed incredible.

After shooting, Zhang Jun fell to his knees in front of Inter Milan's goal. He looked up at the direction where the football flew away.

Forgive me, dad, I can't do it...

※※※

Who would have thought that Zhang Jun would hit the empty goal that was close to him? That would be a goal that was easy to hit and difficult to fly. But Zhang Jun did it.

Yang Pan's hand was still halfway down. Everyone around him was the same as him. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jun would be beaten away.

Going back and thinking about Zhang Jun's attitude change before and after Kaka hugged her, Yang Pan suddenly felt that the knockout had been laid for a long time. Now it was not an accident for Zhang Jun, because he did it on purpose!

The forced melon is not sweet!

But when did you, Zhang Jun, you willful fool, throw a bad temper? You have to play tricks in front of more than 85,000 fans in San Siro, and hundreds of millions of TV viewers around the world! Play when AC Milan needs to break the deadlock the most!

※※※

Li Yongle jumped up from the chair in surprise, his eyes flashed across the chaotic stands, locking onto a person in the venue.

Yes, he doesn't want Zhang Jun, a dangerous person, to score a goal, nor does Inter Milan lose, but he will never want Zhang Jun to do such a move.

If you deliberately kick the goal you should have scored, it will only make people feel that you are naive! Zhang Jun! Have you thought about your current situation?

※※※

Sophie opened her eyes wide and wanted to see what he was thinking from Zhang Jun. Sometimes Zhang Jun was too unexpected.

But he could only see Zhang Jun's back. He was slowly standing up from the ground, lowering his head and ignoring anyone.

"Oh! Zhang Jun actually knocked away this sure-fire goal! A great opportunity! What a pity!" The commentator shouted regretfully, in fact, he was not the only one who felt sorry for him.

Sophie's bad premonition is getting stronger and stronger now.

※※※

Li Yan, based on his professional sense of being a reporter, felt that it was not as simple as hitting high. He turned his head to look at Kagliani, but found that the other party was also looking at him, and both of them knew it.

Kagliani shrugged, while Li Yan shook his head gently.

After Zhang Jun missed this goal that was inevitable, both sides were in a deadlock in the game. AC Milan and Inter Milan had few opportunities. The game calmed down twenty minutes after the first half. After that, both sides attacked and defended each other, but there were few shots that threatened, and more were entangled in the midfield.

By the end of the first half, Zhang Jun shot two more times, but he didn't even score within the goal frame.

He was a little impatient after kicking the flying gate, and anyone could tell it.

Seeing him jumping and jumping anxiously after he missed the shot, Yang Pan sighed in his heart: "If I had known this, why should I have been there!"

Yang Pan felt a torment when he saw Zhang Jun's performance off the court. It was not until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the half that Yang Pan's torture came to an end.

But he knew that Zhang Jun must have experienced this feeling of suffering more deeply than he did.

※※※

Zhang Jun sat in the chair and gasped, not listening to a word that coach Ancelotti said.

In fact, Ancelotti didn't say anything to Zhang Jun. He just asked Yingzaji a few words, then patted him on the shoulder and asked him to warm up first.

Kaka sat next to Zhang Jun, but didn't know what to say. He knew Zhang Jun's temper. If he had been to Warren Dam, that penalty kick would have rushed to the referee long ago and helped the other party complain. But now he is in San Siro and in the Milan Derby, how could he still make such a childish move?

Moreover, he obviously needs goals, but he needs them more than anyone else. Faced with an opportunity to push an empty goal, he chose to give up.

I really don't know what he was thinking.

Kaka suddenly felt a sense of crisis. This sense of crisis did not mean that he was afraid of losing his position. Now he is one of the most solid people in the main force. What made him worry was that maybe he would lose Zhang Jun, just like he lost his elder brother Rivaldo.

Looking at Zhang Jun again, it seemed that he was still suffering. He needed to score a goal, and then an empty goal opportunity was immediately placed in front of him, allowing him to shoot and score. However, the principles he always adhered to prevent him from shooting the ball. In the end, he chose to give up this opportunity, hit the ball high, and chased any opportunity to score again.

Two thoughts were entangled in his heart, and finally a dead knot was tied.

※※※

At the beginning of the second half, Zhang Jun's performance did not allow people who care about him to see hope. No shots in the penalty area were scored. One of them was single, and he actually kicked the ball to the opponent's goalkeeper Toldo's leg, and he was tripped so much that he almost ate the shit.

Looking at his staggering steps, Ancelotti looked down at his watch. In the fifteenth minute of the second half, Philip had almost finished warming up.

Generally speaking, in a very important game, if the player is not injured or sick, but the coach replaces him early, it only means that the head coach is very dissatisfied with the player's performance. For the player, being replaced in front of the audience in advance is like slapping him in the face in public, and he will naturally feel very unhappy. Sometimes, the conflict between the player and the head coach is buried because of a small substitution.

So, when Zhang Jun looked to the sidelines as the referee's substitution gesture before a corner kick, he found that the person AC Milan replaced was him, and his face suddenly became dark. So far, except for deliberately kicking the penalty kick, he has worked very hard. He didn't score because he was not lucky, and it was definitely not in a bad state - Zhang Jun thought so, but obviously others didn't see it that way.

"AC Milan substitution, No. 9 Philip Inzagji came on the court, which is his second game after more than two months of injury. The substitute is No. 11 Zhang Jun. Judging from the first sixty minutes, Zhang's performance is still a bit far from what people expect. Today he is obviously not in shape." A commentator from Sky TV summarized Zhang Jun's 60-minute Milan derby.

※※※

"I accidentally created a penalty kick and kicked the ball away when I was shooting. I missed no less than five opportunities, and was replaced by Philip Inzaji in the 60th minute." Li Yan even made a high-level summary of Zhang Jun's first Milan derby.

Cagliani nodded deeply and felt deeply: "I was replaced in the 60th minute, and his most powerful competitor was replaced. It can be said that Zhang Jun ruined this important Milan derby, and Ancelotti also used this substitution to express his dissatisfaction."

※※※

Zhang Jun looked at Yingzaji standing next to the fourth official, looking eager to try. He lowered his head and walked towards the sidelines, silently accepting the fact that he was replaced early.

Inzaji was doing simple warm-up movements at this time, and it can be seen that he values ​​this opportunity very much, which may allow him to regain his main position.

Although Zhang Jun was very unwilling, he politely clapped Yingzaji on the sidelines and completed the handover ceremony. Then he took the dry towel handed over by the staff and put it on his neck. Without saying hello to Ancelotti, he walked back to the bench and sat on the chair without saying a word.

Everyone saw the cold and frost on Zhang Jun's face through TV broadcast.

Yang Pan originally wanted to comfort Zhang Jun, but he was called by Ancelotti to warm up.

There were not many people on the bench, most of them were warming up, ready to wait for him to be sent on the court at any time. Zhang Jun was empty on both sides of the left and right, and he just sat there with a broken face, looking particularly lonely.

The two Milanese heroes still made no achievements on the court. Inzaghi was very active after playing, but as a point-grabbing striker, there was too little support from the wing. Inter Milan's defense line was very strict in his defense, Shepchenko and Kaka, and there were not many opportunities.

Ten minutes later, Ancelotti decided to give it a try. This round is AC Milan's home court. If it draws or loses, it will be a blow to his morale. He replaced Seedorf with Yang Pan.

This is not the first time that Yang Pan has played on the left forward. He has also played in this unfamiliar position in the previous game. Although the cross will be affected in this place, it is very convenient for the right-footed player to hit the goal.

It was under Ancelotti that Yang Pan realized that he could play more positions. Right winger, right forward, front midfielder, back midfielder, left forward. If you include the right back who occasionally plays guest appearances in Bologna, Yang Pan is really an all-round talent.

Originally, Yang Pan still kept in mind Qiu Suhui's advice on his position, but when he arrived at AC Milan, he found that in order to gain a place in a team with a stable main lineup, he had to adapt to multiple positions so that the head coach could arrange him to the place where he needed him at any time. If he couldn't do his left foot, he could only practice. Practice until his left foot cross is not outrageous as if an amateur player.

Because of his efforts, he can perform well every time he is replaced as a substitute. Gradually, he is called "super substitute" by more and more people. In Ancelotti's substitute list, he became an unstoppable "main force".

After Yang Pan came on the court, he was very active on the left. Inter Milan understood the power of this Chinese side assaulter and asked the captain Zanetti to deal with him wholeheartedly.

However, it is not fair to let a veteran who has fought for seventy minutes defend against a young man who is good at speed.

Yang Pan always acts like he wants to break through the wing, and Sanetti has to step back a little and use distance to make up for his lack of speed. It is understandable that he does this, but...

Yang Pan pushed the ball to the inside line, then went horizontally, and shot hard directly!

It turned out that he didn't want to break through the bottom from the beginning, but shot!

The football roared, and the shot suddenly. Thordo barely took action without adjusting his pace. He held the ball with one hand and jumped upwards and hit the crossbar!

The ball that bounced down was kicked out of the boundary by Córdoba who rushed up.

Then came a huge sigh.

Ancelotti slapped himself in the thigh, feeling very upset. The TV broadcasting of the camera was also very interesting. After giving the head coach a shot, he immediately pointed the camera at Zhang Jun. He was still expressionless and sat upright on the bench with his hands wrapped around his chest.

※※※

When Yang Pan used the same trick again to deceive Sanetti but missed the goal, Sanetti was no longer polite to Yang Pan, and forced her up as soon as she got the ball, and did not hesitate to commit a foul if necessary.

After suffering several losses, Yang Pan knew that he would never be able to break through to this Argentinian today. The two had too much difference in experience, so they had to find another way.

When Nedved was at Juventus, as a left forward, he often ran sideways and pulled to the right to shoot. This flexible and changeable tactic was later adopted by more and more teams.

In Real Madrid, right forward Figo also often runs horizontally in the game, left and right, which very well disrupts the opponent's defense.

Now what Yang Pan has to do is the same as the above two people - as a wing forward, he changed positions from left to right. He greeted Kaka and found an opportunity to move to the right. When Gatuso saw him like this, he stayed behind consciously and leaned against the middle.

Compared with the captain's right side, Inter Milan's left defense was a little bit shrunk. Favalli's condition in this game was a bit ups and downs, not in his best condition. AC Milan's average assist ability made him look good. Kaka's limited number of impacts here made him fuss, and Cordoba had to come and help to resolve the crisis.

Yang Pan observed carefully from the field, so he decided to make a fuss about Favalli. He came to the right and bullied Favalli in this game.

And his efforts were rewarded soon.

Favalli was quite troubled by Yang Pan's speed, so he could only try his best to recycle it and compress his activity space with Stankovic who returned to defense. But Yang Pan is not a player who can only use speed to rush. Although his feet are not as fancy as Ren Yudi, it is very simple and practical.

When facing Favalli, he first buckled the ball to the inside, causing him to have the illusion of a long shot by the same trick horizontally. Then when Favalli believed that he was really going to intercept, he poked the ball to the bottom line with his left foot, and at the same time turned around and accelerated to chase him!

At this time, Favalli found that he was deceived and wanted to turn around, and was left behind by Yang Pan.

breakthrough!

Yang Pan, who had escaped from Favalli, did not dribble further, but directly made a cross. The football was flat and fast, and he was circling the goal in a small arc!

In fact, crossing is also very particular. The high and floating crossing has no effect on the forward. On the contrary, the flat and fast crossing can create scoring opportunities.
