Chapter 168: A siege weapon!

Chen Yingxiong thought it was quite strange. Not long after the second half, when he tried to drill in front of the goal, he encountered almost no resistance and went in easily. Lorik Sana, who had been guarding him before, did not perform like Marseille's central defender, but like Chen Yingxiong's personal bodyguard. He jumped up to interfere with him when his teammates passed the ball in the air to him, and most of the time he just watched from the side. During this period, Chen Yingxiong got two chances of shooting with his feet in the penalty area. If nothing unexpected happened, his shots deviated from the goal.

When did the opponent's defense become so relaxed?

Chen Yingxiong was overjoyed and raised his hand to ask for the ball. The football was passed into the air, but the quality of the crosses was uneven - it was not a decent cross. But it was obvious that Marseille put a lot of effort into air defense.

Chen Yingxiong could not easily head the ball.

After several headers failed, Chen Yingxiong discovered what the problem was - he cut off his contact with his teammates, and even if he let himself stand in front of the goal and stare at him, it would be useless.

Marseille doesn't care whether he or she enters the penalty area!

Chen Yingxiong is not a fool. He knew that Marseille did this not because of his relaxed defense, but because of his stricter defense. It was just that they changed their way to defend themselves...

What should I do? He did not frown on the sidelines like Edvorkat, and his thinking was very simple - since I used my body to fight Sana outside in the first half, the effect was good, and I scored a goal, it means that my threat outside the penalty area was greater than in the penalty area. If Marseille did not let him defend the penalty area in the first half and prevent me from entering, why did he suddenly change his mind in the second half?

Whatever the enemy is afraid of, I will come...

So he returned to the penalty area, stood in front of Lorik Sana, raised his hand again, and asked his teammate for the ball.

Sana once wanted to put Chen Yingxiong into the penalty area, but he didn't count on this matter. Chen Yingxiong himself was unwilling to go in, so he had no choice.

So he had to grit his teeth and continue to fight against Chen Yingxiong.

Impact, impact, or impact.

It is obvious that Chen Yingxiong has the advantage in his physical condition, and Sana can only fight against the opponent with his willpower.

Of course, the referee can also help him occasionally.

Chen Yingxiong has been swearing three fouls because of this.

But he is not afraid. He rarely gets yellow cards for such fouls, so he is simply unscrupulous - as long as you don't brag again and I go in, that's my world!

Not to mention Lorik Sana, even the Marseille head coach, Eric Gretz, who once had many battles as a player, rarely see such a center who plays singles on the back...

It depends purely on the body, with almost no skills - if you have to say that there is any skill, it is also a skill to take turns to push people on the back and butt...

But this kind of approach that looks rough and has no skills left the Marseille defenders at a loss.

Sana's central defender partner Gael Givet came up to help, and Chen Yingxiong immediately distributed the football to Kerzakov, who was temporarily unmarked. Kerzakov shot and forced goalkeeper Mandanda to make a wonderful save.

Givet immediately became honest.

As the game passed, everyone was shocked to realize that the game had reached the 75th minute in the fierce offense and defense.

Until now, neither side scored another goal. The score was still 1:0, and St. Petersburg Zenit, who played at home, led the lead. The total score was 3:2.

Such a score means that Marseille will eliminate Zenit and advance to the quarterfinals.

Gretz stood on the sidelines nervously. Since Chen Yingxiong ran out of the penalty area and fought Sana alone, he has been like this and has not returned to the coach's seat.

He is nervous!

The team is not attacking well now, so they can only wait for Zenit to panic, make mistakes, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack. Even if they can't score the ball, it doesn't matter. As long as Zenit becomes anxious, their offensive power will naturally be greatly reduced.

As long as this score is maintained until the end of the game, Marseille will win!

Most of the time, Gretz stared at Chen Yingxiong and Sana.

Whenever Chen Yingxiong sticks out his butt and fights against Sana, he can't help but tighten his lower abdomen.

He knew that Sana was under tremendous pressure, and he used his body to be the wall of Marseille. This wall had stubbornly blocked Chen Yingxiong for 75 minutes, and only gave the other party one chance!

Such a player is really the best choice as the captain of Marseille!

A team must always have a person who can stand up at critical moments and sacrifice itself to save the team's fate.

Lorik Sana did it.

Gretz sighed in his heart.

Not only Gretz is paying attention to the game time, but also standing on the sidelines are also the head coach of Zenit, St. Petersburg.

He was as anxious as he was, but his appearance seemed as calm as the ancient well.

If he was anxious, the players on the court who were desperately looking for a goal opportunity might be anxious...

He can still control his facial expressions, and the Zenit fans in the stands have long been unable to control them.

There are fifteen minutes left before the end of the game, and you must score a goal within these fifteen minutes. However, judging from the current situation of the team, you still can't start the situation.

"Occurrence! Attack!"

"We need to score!"

Some anxious Zenit fans began to boo the Marseille players because Marseille began to delay the game...

Arshavin tried a long shot, but flew directly out of the baseline. Marseille goalkeeper Mandanda repeatedly placed the football on the ground three times before pushing it away to prepare for the kickoff.

Seeing him carefully placing the football, as if he was placing a piece of ceramic art, a deafening boo sounded over the Petrovsky Stadium.

With such a loud boo, the fool knew that the other party was delaying the game.

The referee blew the whistle decisively and went up to give Mandanda a yellow card. Mandanda shrugged and spread his hands, looking innocent.

As a result, this caused him more booing.

The booings showed how anxious Zenit's fans were. The Marseille fans were very happy, and the few Marseille fans cheered in the corner of the stands. They sang "Marseille" to cheer for their team.

Hirgeevsky was also very anxious: "Arshavin should not shoot long-distance blindly! He should hand over the football to Domingos and reorganize the offense! Although we have many offensive opportunities, it would be useless to squander it like this!"

Journalists in the media table are also worried about the team's prospects.

"If this continues, the team's hope for goals will only be even more slim!"

"Is it really a miracle?"

"Did the hero's goal run out of Zenit's last luck?"

"God! No matter who it is, you're good, score a goal!"

French journalists were excited to restart the topic of predictions for the next round of opponents.

Time passed by two more minutes in the face of concerns in all aspects.

In the 77th minute of the game, the score was still 1:0, with the home team St. Petersburg Zenit leading the way.

In this game, Marseille is equipped with a double-middle configuration, one is an offensive midfielder Benoit Cheyrou, and the other is a defensive midfielder Modeste mbami.

Xie Lu needs to organize an offense, and the key to turning from defense to offense lies in him, so he cannot run to entangle with Chen Yingxiong. But if he wants to attack, he has to start with Chen Yingxiong.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of a dead ball, he called his partner Mbami in the midfield and asked him to join Chen Yingxiong with Sana. One in front and one behind, two people would definitely be able to cut off the ball. As long as the football was cut out, he could take the ball and hit a successful counterattack - he was not as confident and optimistic as the French fans and reporters in the stands. He felt that the situation was very dangerous at the moment, and only scoring goals could dispel the strong sense of crisis in his heart.

Mbami nodded and agreed to Xie Lu's arrangement.

Although Nasri is more famous, the core of Marseille's midfielder is not the French "Four Young Masters" who are as famous as Benzema, Ben Alpha and Menez, but the Benoit Sherro who is not revealing the mountains and the mountains.

When Chen Yingxiong took the ball with his back on his back and was about to fight Sana alone, the Cameroonian rushed up to help Captain Sana and fight against Chen Yingxiong.

He took advantage of the time when Chen Yingxiong put all his attention on Sana and stretched out his feet to sweep the ball!

When they saw Mbami and Sana defending Chen Yingxiong, the people in the stands were shocked. Many fans couldn't help but scream.

The reporters in the media seat were fine, but they didn't shout loudly after all. But they also felt that Chen Yingxiong was going to lose the ball this time.

Everyone knows what kind of skills Chen Yingxiong is. He rarely controls the football under his feet for too long. During the game, he always tries to play the ball as much as possible. When his teammates pass the football to him, he will never drive the ball to the opponent's penalty area by himself, but will quickly transfer the football out. His performance is really like a transit station. He will not leap high until in front of the goal and complete a fatal blow!

He is a smart player who knows to hide his weaknesses and give full play to his strengths. But now in everyone's opinion, he is not smart at all - before he faced a Sana, he could bully people with his body. Now it's too unwise to face two-sided attacks and still control the ball like this!

Chen Yingxiong glanced at the malicious black man from the corner of his eyes, and thought he could know what he was going to do with his knees. So when Mbami swept his feet, Chen Yingxiong quickly bumped backwards and pulled the football in front of him!

In the dungeon, he faced an environment that was ten times worse than it is now, with defensive players around him, and none of his teammates. In such a dungeon, he was trained miserably, but he slowly honed what he should do in the face of such a situation.

So Mbami's move can't stop his ball!

"Mbami!" the French commentator shouted excitedly, as if the Cameroon international had cut the football off.

But then I saw Chen Yingxiong quickly pull the football in front of me, and Mbami swept the ball in the air!

Mbami, who was too hard, even lost the center of gravity, staggered and almost fell to the ground!

But the test Chen Yingxiong faced was not over yet, because behind him was a Lorik Sana who was still fighting even though he was hard, staring at the football under Chen Yingxiong.

Sana, who had been waiting patiently for the opportunity, finally waited for the moment he wanted it. Chen Yingxiong pulled the football back. Now the football was close to him, and he could reach the football with his legs stretched from behind. Chen Yingxiong must have focused his attention on Mbami at this time, and he would never think that he would take advantage of this time... So what if he knew? Can he still react?

Tall people won't move too quickly.

Lorik Sana slid down, grabbed Chen Yingxiong's arm with one hand, grabbed his jersey with the other hand, and poked the ball from behind!

Outsiders looked carefully and thought that the ball would be cut.

The core of Marseille Xie Lu is even ready to catch the ball and fight back. Everyone knows that if Chen Yingxiong is cut off, it will be quite dangerous. Out of trust in Chen Yingxiong, Zenit's defense line is pressing heavily, and behind them are large spaces.

While Sana stretched out her feet to poke the ball, her eyes were always staring at the football. Just when he thought he was about to intercept the ball successfully, the football disappeared from his eyes!

As soon as Chen Yingxiong pulled the football back, he immediately hit the left side of his body. The movement was done in one go, very coherent, without even a pause, just as if he had known what Sana would do.

In fact, this is just a conditioned reflex trained in the dungeon. Chen Yingxiong's body firmly remembered this series of movements.

He pressed the football to the left side of his body, and at the same time, Chen Yingxiong held Sana with one hand and quickly turned around in the direction where the football was!

Lorik Sana's hand holding his arm was forced to open to maintain balance, while the other hand was still holding his clothes firmly, without letting go. Sana knew very well what this kid was going to do. Of course, he couldn't let go at this time, and he would definitely hold him to bury him even if he died! He didn't believe that he would hang himself all over, and Chen Yingxiong could still turn and shoot...
