The situation has changed so rapidly that this is the only thought in the minds of all the viewers.
The Arizona Cardinals had just completed a 75-yard advance with great momentum; but in the blink of an eye, the San Francisco 49ers had completed the feat of striking out, and the defense was airtight for three consecutive times, both on the front line and in the second line. They all exerted enough pressure and did not leave any chance for the Arizona Cardinals offensive team, especially the third-down defense, which forced Palmer into a panic by just using three people to rush the pass.
The home audience didn't even have time to end their celebration, and then the initiative of the game was handed over again. The conversion of advantages and disadvantages was so fast that it made people breathless. The entire University of Phoenix Stadium was filled with an almost... A suffocating tightness.
"strike out!"
"The San Francisco 49ers defense still showed its toughness at the most critical moment. The super-high quality of the red zone defense gave the Arizona Cardinals offense no chance at all! Justin Smith, Navarro Bowman, Aldon Smith, Ahmed Brooks, Ray McDonald, and Michael Weihout, who came on as a substitute for Patrick Willis in this game, all showed strong abilities in these three defenses. , it can be said that they used their collective strength to force the touchdown that they almost got from the Arizona Cardinals!"
"Tough! Tough! Strong!"
"Wow! It's hard to imagine that the San Francisco 49ers defense once again showed its peak form last season. This matchup is really exciting!"
In San Francisco on the west coast of North America, Willis was sitting in front of the TV so nervous that he almost forgot to breathe. But when the team completed the strikeout, he was like a child, forgetting everything and roared, "Ah! Ah! ! Ahhh!" The endless energy was completely released. This was a demonstration for the Arizona Cardinals and a support for the San Francisco 49ers. Even though they were not together physically, they were always together mentally. Fight alongside.
Well done!
"Good job!" Willis roared until his voice became hoarse, he clenched his fists, and then couldn't help but began to whisper one after another, "Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!" That enthusiasm The excitement burst out from the depths of the soul, resonating from the soul firmly and persistently.
It’s not “The Fight Never Ends,” it’s “Bambi.”
This is like a totem belief! In just three seasons, it has become the spiritual symbol of the entire team and even the entire city. It seems that as long as they follow that figure and move forward unswervingly, they will be able to overcome all difficulties and challenges. Thorns, reach the other side of victory!
Willis believed so unwaveringly, and he wasn't the only one.
"Bambi!" Jeff Locke stood in the center of "Joe's Bar", raised his right hand high, and shouted selflessly.
"Bambi!" Cliff Hart shouted as he ran along the streets of San Francisco carrying the banner of "King of the Bay Area".
"Bambi!" Li Mo Nian stood on the street at the intersection of Chinatown, directing the bustling Chinese fans in the entire block to shout collectively.
"Bambi!" Raymond Jackson stood in the lounge of Candlestick Stadium, listening to the commentary coming from the radio, and couldn't help shouting to the court.
"Bambi!" Stephen Curry was in the lounge of Oracle Arena, leading his teammates of the Golden State Warriors to watch the live broadcast of the game, and then he couldn't help shouting.
"Bambi!" Lech Steinberg was in the visiting team's VIP room at the University of Phoenix Stadium. Before he realized it, he had murmured in a low voice. Then he realized that Roger Goodell and Jayson De York also looked at him, and the three of them exchanged a tacit look.
"Bambi! Bambi! Bambi!"
One sound! Say it again! Another sound! Those shouts gathered from the streets and alleys of San Francisco, and finally condensed over the blue sea and sky of the Bay Area, condensing into a powerful and ferocious momentum, spreading continuously, covering the entire city and the entire Bay Area. The spirit and will are all tied together.
At this moment, they are all nine!
Although the team was playing away in another city, they did not stay away. They still stood not far behind the team, becoming their most solid and powerful backing!
Such spiritual power seemed to break the constraints of time and space and was clearly transmitted to the University of Phoenix stadium. The San Francisco 49ers defensive team, which successfully forced their opponent to strike out, did not celebrate and cheer wantonly. Instead, they stood up again and cast all their eyes towards Lu Ke:
Although the result is not perfect, they have tried their best. Now the defensive team's task has come to an end for the time being, and the next step is up to Lu Ke.
Aldon was the first to rush to the sidelines and stared at Lu Ke with excitement. He could not say a word, but his expression was enough to explain everything, from the trouble at the beginning of the season to the cold storage during the season to the rise at the end of the season. , this season was a real roller coaster for Aldon, but in the last game of the season, he finally completed his redemption. And all of this would never have happened without Lu Ke's help.
Lu Ke didn't say much. Now was not the time to celebrate. He just high-fived Aldon to celebrate, and then gave Aldon a big hug to express encouragement. That was all; but Aldon buried his head on Lu Ke's shoulder. When I was on it, I couldn't help but burst into tears. Only by truly experiencing the ups and downs of the troughs and peaks can we truly understand the truth that "success is never easy to come by."
Lu Ke knows better than anyone else the hard work Aldon has put in, as well as the sweat the entire defensive team has put in despite being trapped by injuries. Now the defensive team has successfully completed their tasks and avoided repeating the same mistakes. Disaster, then it was the offensive team's turn.
Lu Ke patted Aldon's shoulder heavily, then let go of his embrace, stood on the spot and jumped lightly. He needed to concentrate.
The other defensive players also imitated Aldon's appearance and lined up on the sidelines. They stepped forward one after another and high-fived Lu Ke and the other teammates standing behind Lu Ke to celebrate. It was officially completed. The handover condensed the spirit of the entire team.
Justin Smith was last.
Looking at Lu Ke in front of him, Justin said nothing, but an eye contact was enough - the nightmare of the 2011 National League finals has been broken, but if they want to win, they still need the offensive team to complete the final fatal blow. , now Justin feels the same as all the players and fans, all hopes are pinned on Lu Ke.
The heavy pressure was pressed on Lu Ke's shoulders layer by layer. The invisible mountain almost made people breathless. Even Lu Ke couldn't help but quietly straighten his waist again and put all the pressure away. Even if the situation is difficult, he will never give in.
Lu Ke and Justin finished high-fiving, which also meant that the offensive team and the defensive team officially completed the handover.
Faced with a touchdown on fourth down, the Arizona Cardinals did not choose to take risks after all. They chose a free kick——
Although it is said that scoring a touchdown can directly end the game, if the fourth-down touchdown challenge is unsuccessful, it also means that in the next wave of offense, as long as the San Francisco 49ers score, whether it is a safety score, touchdown or free kick, it will Being able to end the game directly, the Arizona Cardinals did not dare to take risks.
The special teams of both sides came on stage. The Arizona Cardinals carefully prepared every link, and in the end there were no mistakes. They steadily kicked the free kick into the goal. "26:23", once again overtook the score, so the situation in overtime It became clear that the victory balance was once again tilted towards the home team.
In the next wave of offense, if the San Francisco 49ers fail to score, the game will end immediately; if the San Francisco 49ers also complete a free kick and create a tie again, then the game will enter the "golden goal" stage. Who can score next? No matter what form it is, it can directly end the game; the last possibility is that if the San Francisco 49ers complete a touchdown, then the game will also directly end.
Of course, if the San Francisco 49ers not only fail to score, but also lose the ball, and even have a fumble return touchdown or interception return touchdown, it goes without saying that the Arizona Cardinals will directly win the game. .
In other words, for the San Francisco 49ers, this is an offense that absolutely does not allow for any deviation, while the Arizona Cardinals can throw off their arms and fully defend. The subtle shift in the balance of victory and defeat has also changed the atmosphere of the stadium. Wonderful changes, the pressure is increasing, will this be the last straw for the San Francisco 49ers offense?
The Arizona Cardinals special team successfully completed the kickoff, raised the football to the baseline without any suspense, and rejected Marcus Lynch's attempt to return the ball. This also allowed the San Francisco 49ers to start their attack from above their own twenty-yard line. , and then Lu Ke led his offensive teammates on the stage.
Under the spotlight, all eyes were focused on Lu Ke, but his expression was hidden in the helmet, making it impossible for outsiders to detect it.
Only the offensive players standing face to face in front of Lu Ke could clearly capture Lu Ke's eyes. Those focused eyes burst out with a powerful force, and they even licked their lips eagerly, as if they were enjoying it. Judging from the bloody breath remaining on his lips, the terrifying temperament is truly terrifying.
Although they all know the name "Bloody Bambi", the more tense and dangerous the difficult situation is, the more Lu Ke is able to focus on the game, bursting out with unimaginable energy and state; but when he is really in it , Goosebumps still couldn't help but shoot up from my back - it was really, really scary!
