Pato, who was stopped by Velarde, finally had to pass the ball to his teammates, and then gave Velarde a thumbs up to express his appreciation.
For Pato, who has toured Europe and won the European Golden Boy Award, he will not feel annoyed when a 21-year-old young man blocks his way to breakthrough, but only appreciates it.
Of course, the more important thing is that the game has just started, the score has not changed yet, and everyone is not angry yet. Later, if Sao Paulo falls behind, Pato may not have such an optimistic attitude.
The game continues.
In the 26th minute, Sao Paulo played a good threatening attack through teamwork. The forward midfielder Gansuo passed the ball to the side, the winger Wesley passed the ball in an inverted triangle from the left, and the other winger Centurione cut in Entering the penalty area, he met the ball and fired furiously near the penalty spot of the penalty area, creating a good heavy artillery world wave.
Unfortunately, the angle of the ball was not very tricky, and Marcos Dias tried his best to dive and just hit the ball, changing the path of the ball. The ball changed its line and hit the post, bounced into the penalty area, and was then picked up by Velarde who returned to defend.
Generally speaking, in order to prevent the ball from staying in the penalty area for a long time and being counterattacked by the opponent and shooting immediately, the defender of the defender will directly make a big kick after getting the ball and kick the ball out of the penalty area first.
But this time, Velarde did not directly make a big-footed clearance. Instead, after removing the ball, he just made a big-footed clearance, causing Pato who was rushing from the side to jump up and turn his back to block the hole of the gun. Not only did Velarde not clear the ball, He kicked it out with his big foot, but dunked the ball, letting Pato pass, and then dribbled the ball out of the penalty area.
Subsequently, many offensive players of the Hurricane Athletic team sprinted together, and Willard also passed the ball out at the appropriate time and followed it forward at high speed.
Unfortunately, the counterattack failed in the end. When Toranso was about to pass the ball to Tulaza who was on the wing, he passed the ball too far in advance. The full-back Renaldo made a flying tackle and shoveled the ball out of the sideline.
Although Tulasa, who could not stop the car, was knocked down by Renaldo who was lying on the ground, Renaldo did not commit a foul. The referee only gave the Hurricane Athletic team a frontcourt foul ball.
By the time Lucas Villaruel stepped forward and threw the throw-in, Sao Paulo's midfielders and backfielders had basically returned to their defensive positions. There were no conditions for a quick counterattack and they could only engage in positional warfare.
The skills of Brazilian players are indeed good. In the 29th minute, midfielder Ganso used a continuous bicycle pedal when facing Lucas Villaruel's interception, knocking Lucas directly to the ground. He walked away from Lucas with the ball, causing a burst of cheers from the Brazilian fans in the stands.
However, Gansuo's attack after this breakthrough failed to succeed. Perhaps he was a little carried away by the burst of cheers and applause he received from the stands after breaking through Lucas. When facing the interception of central defender Nervo at the penalty area line, he did not pass the ball out, but prepared to use his technique again. Man, enter the penalty area and shoot.
As a result, just when he slowed down and was about to make a fake move to break through Nervo, Velarde, who was returning to defense at high speed, appeared from his side, squeezed his body, and easily stole the ball away.
Although teammate Pato reminded Gansuo loudly, Gansuo was a little slow to react, and in the end the ball was intercepted by Velarde who returned to defense.
Gansuo's dribbling breakthrough only broke through one person, and then the ball was intercepted.
A few minutes later, Willard, who had increased his skills to 89 and had a physique, awareness, and speed of 90, allowed everyone at the scene and in front of the TV to see what it meant to beat several people in a row.
In the 35th minute, the ball passed from the Sao Paulo wing was snatched by Eduardo Dominguez over Pato's head and pushed out of the penalty area. Toranso, who returned to defense, got the second goal.
Just when Toranso was about to unload the ball and see where to pass it, Velarde's voice sounded from the side: "Toranso, this way."
Hearing Velarde's voice, Toranso did not unload the ball, but directly volleyed the ball to Velarde who rushed out of the penalty area from the side.
The ball was not picked very well. In the air, Velarde could not use his feet to stop the ball, and in front of him was the intercepting Sao Paulo winger Centurion.
So Villard moved his head forward without hesitation, pushed the ball from the left side of Centurion's body, and then accelerated past Centurion's right side.
The header was passed.
Centurion saw the ball pushed out by Velarde and was about to block it, but failed. Then he saw that Velarde was trying to rush over from the other side of his body, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of Velarde's clothes. Prepare for a tactical foul to pull down Willard.
As a result, Villard's strong physique and speed prevented Centurion from succeeding in his pulling and fouling. Instead, Villard led him to the ground.
The referee's whistle was already in his mouth, but when he saw that Velarde did not fall to the ground, Centurion was thrown to the ground instead. Velarde threw Centurion away and faced him just now. Chase the ball that is clicked out.
Therefore, based on the principle of advantageous offense, the referee raised his hands to indicate that the game should continue.
Velarde, who didn't hear the referee's whistle, naturally didn't stop. After catching up with the ball in a few strides, he took the ball and rushed towards the Sao Paulo half.
In the midfield, Velarde was intercepted by Sao Paulo's midfielder De Sousa, but was knocked down by Velarde's same continuous bicycle fake action, and then Velarde broke through.
The last two central defenders, Lu Kang and Raphael Toroy, were knocked aside by Velarde's breakthrough fake moves using simple tricks such as body shaking and Matthews' passing.
Coupled with the movements of Alejandro Romero and Avila, after Verard broke through the last defender Rafael Toroy, Verard had already formed a one-man goal.
Amid the excitement of Hurricanes fans at the scene and in front of the TV, and amid the huge boos of the Brazilian fans at home, Velardi, who single-handedly dribbled the ball outside the penalty area, faced goalkeeper Ceni who entered the penalty area and directly chose A powerful volley.
With his shooting skills of 79, he didn't dare to shoot over the top, fearing that he wouldn't be able to grasp the strength and overshoot. Therefore, it is better to aim at the goal and take a powerful shot, using the power brought by his strong physique to create a world wave.
Willard's choice is undoubtedly the right one.
This powerful volley produced great power and speed, forming a heavy artillery world wave. Although the angle was not too bad, the speed was too fast and the cut was close to the ground. Cheney's speed when he fell to the ground to save could not catch up with the speed of the ball flying close to the ground.
In the end, Cheney watched helplessly as the ball skimmed across the turf diagonally below his palm and then flew into the goal behind him like a bolt of lightning.
