Chapter 9 Don't be too happy(2/2)
Gago passed the football to Wood with confidence. The boss was right. No matter how the captain performed in the previous few games, he had to trust the captain in the game, and he could only serve as the new captain.
After Wood received the football, it was not Mascherano who came to defend him, but Gerald.
After Wood made the gesture of passing the football to his teammates next to him, he suddenly took the football first - he forced the breakthrough!
Gerald put his body on and wanted to force Wood to slow down. In addition, he began to wave to Mascherano to come up to help. He found that it was still a bit difficult to defend Wood who was determined to attack...
On the left side of Gerald and on the right side of Mascherano, the two of them were like bodyguards, "escorting" Wood to run forward. Gerald interfered on one side, while Mascherano was waiting for an opportunity to step on the other side. Gerald was not afraid of Wood's long shot. As long as he kicked the ball and shot, it would be a good time for them to intercept the ball, so as long as they stick to Wood, the Forest team's attack will be fine this time...
Aaron Mitchel and Ibicevic were running in the front, and they ran to the two sides and pulled out the middle. Ag and Scotter did not dare not to follow. In addition, they saw that Wood had Gerald and Mascherano and joined forces to defend, thinking that even if they left the middle, the goal guarded by Reiner should not be threatening.
Wood still had no intention of passing the ball. He continued to drive the ball forward, and kept entangling with Gerald and Mascherano during the running to prevent the football under his feet from being cut off by them. Thanks to his basic training day after day over the past ten years, his dribbling was very steady, and Mascherano and Gerald could not find any chance...
Then... Gerald raised his head by chance, and he was shocked!
The penalty area line is right in front of you! When did they actually quickly enter the penalty area?
A bad idea emerged in Gerald's mind - it turned out that he was fooled by Wood. He thought Wood could only shoot from a long distance, but he didn't expect that this time Wood would directly break into the penalty area and go one-on-one with the goalkeeper!
His ball is very well-behaved, and it is not easy to intercept the ball, so he can only make a foul... In this position, it will be too late if he doesn't make a foul!
Gerald no longer hesitated and directly shoveled Wood from the oblique side. At the same time, Mascherano pushed Wood hard behind his back. They obviously wanted to go together - the foul should be done as soon as possible!
The football under his feet was suddenly kicked out by Wood. Gerald did not hit the football, but it didn't matter, he didn't go for the football anyway.
He brought Wood, but did not bring Wood down. The move Mascherano pushed behind him became a driving force, causing Wood to jump forward... He avoided the fouls of the two people in one breath. Although his body's center of gravity was still unstable and his steps were staggering, he did not fall to the ground and lost control of the football.
The referee's spoon was in his mouth, and he did not swear a foul by Gerald and Mascherano, but instead allowed the game to continue.
Just as Wood kicked the football out, Reiner made a quick attack. This may be the best opportunity, but Wood's explosive power was too terrifying. Reiner just ran out of the goal, and Wood caught up with the football after only two steps. Although his steps were still a little unstable, this did not prevent him from raising his foot to shoot...
It seemed as if he was volleying with all his strength. When the football flew past Renner, he didn't even see the flight route clearly. He just heard a "huh" sound, followed by "bang!"
The football hit the inside of the post and bounced into the goal again! The goal was still shaking...
Reiner suddenly felt fear--will such a shot fall on the spot if he hits his face?
Less than ten meters away from the goal, he used the power of a powerful long shot. The goal was only in the flash. Perhaps only Reina could deeply understand the power of the ball. He was half-kneeling on the ground, a little dazed, and didn't even look back to look at the football in the goal.
The song "You Never Walk Alone" above Anfield disappeared, and only one voice roared repeatedly:
Chapter completed!
