Chapter 64 The Arrow is on the String

Atletico Madrid missed the opportunity to score goals one after another after another after the second half, which made Atletico Madrid fans sigh.

"Is this God punishing us, suggesting we shouldn't win here?" Daniel Herrera said, pointing to the TV.

"Shut up, Daniel! Otherwise I'll throw you out of here!" A strong man in the crowd shouted at him.

Herrera immediately shrank her neck and said nothing.

The bar was crowded with people, and Majin fans who did not go out with the team to watch the game, enjoying beer and cheering for the team.

However, the process of this game made everyone less interested in drinking.

Atletico Madrid had the advantage in the first half, but ended up facing the god-like goalkeeper Almeria.

In the second half, Ruwen blocked Ardatulan's shot again, and it seemed that his performance was going to continue like a god.

Atletico Madrid fans in the bar held wine glasses with solemn expressions, and no one was interested in paying attention to the wine glasses in their hands.

※※※

In the football world, this is indeed the case.

A player who is usually unknown suddenly performed well, just like a god descending to earth, and played a highlight of his career.

Ruven Martines joined the Barcelona Club in 1997 and is a goalkeeper produced by Barcelona youth training. However, he has only played for Barcelona's first team three times. Most of the time he played in Barcelona's B team and was later frequently loaned.

During the 2009-2010 season, his contract with Barcelona expired and he transferred to Cartagena freely, which was a team in the Spanish Second Division. In this team, he finally became the main goalkeeper.

After two seasons at Cartagena, he transferred to Malaga for 1.3 million euros, which is his only transfer so far with a transfer fee.

After working as a substitute goalkeeper for two seasons in Malaga, he made a free transfer to Vallecano in the 2012-2013 season.

In Vallecano, the goalkeeper who debuted from Barcelona finally became the main player in the A-level team. He made thirty-one appearances in his first season, conceded forty-nine goals, and had eight clean sheets in eight games. However, as a goalkeeper, he had eight yellow cards and two red cards, which was surprising...

Last season, his second season at Vallecano, he made 35 appearances, conceded 64 goals, and scored ten games in clean sheets.

With the opportunity to play as the main goalkeeper in Vallecano, he transferred from Vallecano to Almeria this season and served as the main goalkeeper. His performance was pretty good. Almeria only conceded one goal in the first few games.

However, in Spanish football, he still has a big gap with those famous goalkeepers, and neither fame nor strength are eye-catching.

But in this game, the unknown goalkeeper performed his courage and repeatedly resisted Atletico Madrid stars' shots.

His outstanding performance made the commentators constantly exclaim his name and send all kinds of praise.

At this time, Ruven Martines, born in 1984, was already thirty years old, which was the golden age of a goalkeeper.

Perhaps this player will never reach the heights of his predecessor Casillas and rising star De Gea in his entire career, but at this moment, in today's game, Almeria's fans kept singing Ruven Martines' cheers, believing that he is as excellent as Casillas and De Gea.

Listening to the singing of Almeria's home fans for him, Ruwen's heart was filled with endless power.

He is determined to repay Almeria fans' love and support for him with his first clean sheet this season.

However, it is not only goalkeeper Ruwen who performed well. Almeria's defense line also did his best to stop Atletico Madrid.

Especially because they had a very strict defense against Gao Zheng, the time Ardatulan did not pass the ball to Gao Zheng was considered a rare opportunity for Gao Zheng. Moreover, it was because his defense made a mistake when he was moving to the sideline and was directly intercepted by Ardatulan, and the defense line was rushed to meet the challenge.

In fact, in most cases, Gao Zheng has difficulty getting the opportunity to face the goal.

As long as he enters the 30-meter area, Almeria's player will force him to get the ball with his back to the offensive direction, which creates difficulties for Gao Zheng's shooting.

Of course, as long as he stays away from the goal, he can face the offensive direction, but at that time he stays away from the goal, the threat also dropped a lot.

For example, this time in the offense, Gao Zheng was pushed into the penalty area as the center, but his back was facing the attack direction. When Griezmann passed the football to him, he could only pass the football back directly to Griezmann who cut across the cross after passing the ball.

However, Griezmann did not have a good chance, so after receiving Gao Zheng's pass, he moved the ball horizontally to the other side and gave it to Cork on the left.

So far, this is a microcosm of Atletico Madrid's previous offense. Their possession rate is far higher than that of the home team Almeria, and they also have more shots, but they just won't score.

Gao Zheng is under the strict control of his opponent, and it is even more difficult to get opportunities. Many times, he can only do the ball for his teammates and help them create opportunities.

Just like he just passed the ball back to Griezmann directly.

Cork, who got the ball, originally planned to shoot a long shot directly, but when he looked up and observed, he saw Gao Zheng, who was walking backwards, suddenly turned around and ran back.

Even though he didn't make gestures to himself, Cork realized what he should do.

So he did not assist and swung his feet on the spot to pass the ball to the back point of the penalty area!

"Korke's cross, run high and backwards! He is adjusting the step point, and this is to shoot directly... He has pulled his posture!" Josemaria is a radio station commentator. When commenting on the game, she should try to use words to describe everything that happens on the field. She should try to make every move of the player clear, and not just shout a name.

Every ups and downs in his tone mean many subtle changes, and those who often listen to his commentator can understand it.

Dong Jin, who was holding the radio, was listening to Jose Maria's explanation now. When he heard Jose Maria say this, the scene of the game naturally appeared in his mind:

Gao Zheng stepped forward and moved to the back point, and in the process, he adjusted his pace and rhythm step by step, and directly swung his feet, preparing to pull the football towards the goal!

He couldn't help but clench his fists.

※※※

It was similar to what Dong Jin had imagined. Gao Zheng did this. He began to adjust his pace while running. Even the fool could see that he was going to shoot directly.

As Almeria's central defender Trujillo naturally saw it. He turned around and ran back. After seeing Gao Zheng swing his right leg, he didn't care about anything and threw his body out, intending to use his body to block Gao Zheng's shot.

At this time, he would not consider whether he would be shaken by Gao Zheng's fake move, because in his opinion, Gao Zheng's move was an arrow that had to be shot on the string, and it would definitely be a shot, and there would be no other possibility. If he was worried about being shaken and missed the best opportunity to block Gao Zheng, he might make a big mistake.

When he turned around to block Gao Zheng's shot with his body, he turned to face the goal. He saw goalkeeper Lu Wen also quickly moved his body, turned around and rushed to the back corner of the goal, preparing to block Gao Zheng's shot.

With his body plus goalkeeper Lu Wen, he firmly believed that they could resolve Atletico Madrid's sudden attack.

But the shot he expected did not come. His body did not feel the impact of the football, nor did he see the football flying towards the goal.

What's going on?

Did Gao Zheng not play the ball? Or did he shoot the football soccer miss?

※※※

"Keck suddenly made a cross, Gao Zheng ran back and fucked forward, beautiful! Opportunity!" Amid He Ping's roar, all the Chinese fans in front of the TV watched Gao Zheng swung his right leg and wanted to volley.

World wave!

Many people were exclaiming in their hearts.

But when the football really flew to the landing point, the moment they were expecting did not happen.

The football was not drawn to the goal by Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng's right leg was indeed swung hard at the football, like a whip.

But the next scene made many viewers widen their eyes and whip the football. They didn't pull the football away, but... stuck to the football!

The football seemed to have suddenly frozen, and it was stopped by Gao Zheng's right leg!

And it's not just stopping the ball, the football was actually fixed between Gao Zheng's calves and feet!

Then with the rotation of the right leg, it was retracted!

No one expected that an arrow's volley on the string would turn into a magic juggling performance!

Trujillo was deceived and jumped over, just in time to let goalkeeper Lu Wen out.

Goalkeeper Lu Wen made a save like a conditioned reflex and only did half of it. He watched in surprise that the football was still on Gao Zheng's feet...

At this moment, Gao Zheng, who was holding the football, shook his right ankle and directly picked the football towards the back corner of the goal.

Lu Wen, who was stiff in the same place, was powerless to do anything about the football that was far away from him, and could only watch the football fly to the back corner of the goal.

The home fans who saw this scene also forgot to boo and watched the football fly towards the goal in a daze.

In this morgue-like silence, the football crossed the goal line and fell into Almeria's goal.
