Wang Xiaodong is not a forward, but the threat he gives his opponents is far more profound than a forward.
As Wang Xiaodong's old rival, the wrist guards under Van der Sar's gloves were specially customized for Wang Xiaodong.
He himself also knew that if Wang Xiaodong's every shot was as powerful as before, he would not be able to withstand a few shots even if he wore a wristband.
While Van der Sar went to pick up the ball thrown by the staff, he glanced at the trembling doorframe next to him with his peripheral vision.
As a goalkeeper, he needs to regulate his emotions at all times to optimize his condition.
But he couldn't ignore Wang Xiaodong's shot. In his opinion, since Wang Xiaodong started, the goal would eventually appear. It was just a matter of time.
It is absolutely cruel for a goalkeeper to know that a goal will happen but can do nothing about it!
In the studio, Zhang Lu and He Wei also wanted to discuss this matter. After all, Wang Xiaodong's kicking the mountain was really shocking.
Although the ball was not scored, the visual sense given to the fans was first-class.
But just as the two were still recalling the trembling door frame, Tottenham's attack struck again.
"...Modric, Modric passes through!"
"The Manchester United players didn't dare to be careless at all. Ferdinand grabbed the front spot and pushed Lennon's cross out of the penalty area."
"The ball came to Modric again."
"Shake left...wipe to the side..."
"Pull to the side..."
"Knock back?!"
After Modric deliberately swiped the ball toward the wing, he suddenly used an extremely awkward posture to push the ball back to the center.
With this operation, he took away two defenders in the center of Manchester United.
The next second, a white figure suddenly rushed out from the side of the ball.
The distance of three meters passed in an instant. With a swish of his right foot, the ball flew straight into the blind corner of Manchester United's goal like a cannonball.
Almost at the same time, the ball passed through the crowd and hit Van der Sar's right palm hard.
There was a muffled sound of "bang", and even the Manchester United players in the penalty area heard it clearly.
The Dutchman did not dare to stay for a moment after landing. He opened his arms and pounced forward, holding the ball in his arms under the blocking position of his teammates who were surrounding him.
Looking at Van der Sar at his feet, both Vidic and Ferdinand couldn't help but stretch out their hands and constantly disturb their teammates' hairstyles.
Van der Sar really made a contribution in these few minutes.
Tottenham's several counterattacks almost penetrated Manchester United's defense every time, threatening the goal behind them.
If it hadn't been for the god Van der Sar coming down to earth, he might have been overtaken by now.
Van der Sar climbed to his feet, neither yelling nor throwing a punch.
Those seemingly exaggerated gestures are nothing more than the goalkeeper venting his inner emotions and concealing his inner panic.
Facing Wang Xiaodong's powerful shot, he already understood.
No matter how nervous you are, no matter how scared you are, what should come will always come.
So this time after Van der Sar got up, he quickly dismissed all his teammates in front of him and launched the attack again in the backcourt.
Wang Xiaodong's two consecutive long-distance shots made the fans excited. Such powerful shots were like shooting stars, hitting the hearts of every fan in the stands.
The gorgeous football is pleasing to the eye, and the delicate football is meaningful.
The passionate power football is dominated by the passionate fans.
War God Barty, every time I see his familiar forward swing, I can think of the excited Barty GOAL a second later;
"Xiao Li Guang" Carlos, every time I see him running, I can think of that long-sounding cloud-piercing sharp arrow;
Nowadays, whenever they hear a roar on the court, fans know that it must be another shot from Wang Xiaodong!
Letting the ball fly over the shortest distance between two points at the fastest speed is what Wang Xiaodong does after every shot.
And every time he pursues this principle, he will cause exclamations from the stands.
Ever since Cristiano Ronaldo scored, the game has been endless.
Seeing that Manchester United is on the verge of collapse, I think of Tottenham's ups and downs along the way...
Bai Baihe fans began to stand up and cheer loudly for the team.
Coupled with the Chinese fans at the scene, the overall momentum fell to Tottenham's side.
In front of Manchester United's goal line, Van der Sar bent over and looked ahead attentively.
The Dutchman's knees are slightly arched and his arms are slightly open, ready to attack and save at any time.
So far, he had tried his best to block Wang Xiaodong's four long-range shots.
In addition to the first shot hitting the door frame, Wang Xiaodong's next four shots all hit the door frame.
The hands under the latex had begun to tremble, and the wrists under the wrist guards were already numb.
Van der Sar has now considered whether to add another layer of protective gear to his upper body during halftime. It is still necessary to appropriately reduce some sensitivity for safety and stability.
Just when Van der Sar was slipping away, there was another "boom", bringing the Dutchman back to reality.
Such a familiar voice has become a conditioned reflex for Van der Sar. The Dutch goalkeeper immediately lowered his center of gravity, quickly found the trajectory of the ball and dived out.
But the next moment, a wailing sound suddenly came from in front of him.
"Ah~~~!"
Evra fell forward to the ground, his face contorted with pain.
At this moment, Van der Sar, who was leaning forward subconsciously, was looking at the ferocious expression of his teammate, and he could even count the frequency of the corners of his teammate's mouth twitching.
But he didn't have any time to hesitate at this moment. The collapsed Van der Sar desperately used his arms to prop up his body, but it was still a step too late.
At some point, Robbie Keane rushed into the Manchester United penalty area like a ghost.
Before Ferdinand, in front of Van der Sar, Wang Xiaodong gently pushed the ball on Evra's back, and pushed the ball straight into the lower left corner of the goal.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!”
"GOAL, GOAL, GOOOOOOOOAL!!!"
The on-site commentator let out a long howl, raising his voice to the extreme in this passionate night.
"Keane!"
"Robbie, Keane!!!"
"Captain of Tottenham!"
"When the team needed him, he stepped forward and saved the team again!"
"In the 35th minute of the first half, Tottenham equalized the score!"
The camera is focused on Van der Sar.
He stood up, walked helplessly back to the net, picked up the ball and kicked it hard.
Through the slow-motion replay of the scene, Wang Xiaodong was still 40 meters away from the goal when he received the pass from his teammate.
This distance is a safe distance for all goalkeepers. Even Wang Xiaodong was not in a hurry to shoot immediately.
Coincidentally, the ball was originally passed horizontally back to Modric from Bell on the left front.
But the ball quickly slipped away from Modric. After a few steps, Modric stopped and gave the ball to Wang Xiaodong, who had just come in from the center.
It was this concession that shook Carrick, who was originally guarding Modric, and Hargreeves, who was about to attack from the wing, and Wang Xiaodong took advantage of the situation and walked forward to take the ball.
But he only took two steps and quickly started at a distance of 35 meters.
At this moment, Evra was facing his own goal and defending Berba. The sudden attack on his back made him lose his center of gravity and he fell down.
And it was this block that deceived Van der Sar's center of gravity, which resulted in Robbie Keane's missed shot from the penalty area line.
Even Ferguson couldn't help but sigh after "reviewing" the goal he just conceded.
What he lamented was why Brown and Ferdinand were careless just now and put Robbie Keane in.
This conceding could definitely have been avoided if the defender had been more alert.
But in fact, everyone knows that there are thousands of changes on the football field, and no one can guarantee that they can concentrate every minute and every second.
What's more, as the top forward in the Premier League, Robbie Keane's sense of smell in front of the goal and running ability are superior to others.
Running out of space and succeeding in a shot at a critical moment is a basic operation for a forward of his level.
This goal seemed to be scored by chance, but in fact it was inevitable!
After several consecutive replays of Robbie Keane's supplementary shots, the close-up shot switched to Wang Xiaodong again.
Seeing Wang Xiaodong's figure, tens of thousands of Chinese fans in the stands cheered again.
A fat old man stood on the seat, proudly showing off to the London fans behind him.
"Hello!"
"see it?"
"If it weren't for Xiaodong's long-range shot, where would the goal come from?"
