"Burgos' behavior has brought shame to Barcelona." Mr. Winter smiled brightly, obviously amused by Burgos' behavior. "However, Lu Yang's action just now did involve a certain amount of physical contact. It is a matter of whether or not a penalty will be awarded. The kind that can.”
"The referee blew it, so there's nothing wrong with it."
"So if Burgos wants to see it, he can do it openly. There is no need to look through the fingers like this... It seems a bit indecent."
"Italy missed a great chance to equalize."
Almost two minutes later, the same thing happened to the Italian team.
Dominguez passed the ball to Talista and then moved forward. Talista made a false pass and passed Ram directly.
Bernoulini struck out in time and succeeded with a prejudgmental tackle outside the penalty area.
The football was kicked off the sideline and Talista fell beside Bernoulini.
The referee considered this to be a legal defense.
But after Talista got up, he kept complaining: "Isn't this a foul? This should be a yellow card, right? You can't find a balance in this kind of thing. I am me, and Burgos is Burgos."
Bernulini walked over and pushed Talista away: "Little rookie, stop talking. My tackle is more reliable than your shot. This is a good tackle, do you understand?"
Talista laughed at that time: "Are you kidding me, old man?"
Bernoulini also laughed: "Don't say that. With your appearance, it's not too much for me to call you brother."
Talista's eyes widened: "This is the lowest quality joke I have ever heard. Well, seeing that you are too old to run and can only rely on fouls to defend me, I won't do it this time. I’m arguing with you.”
"But next time you have to walk a little faster, otherwise you won't even be able to catch my jersey!"
"I can't believe that Italy's central defenders are so short of talent that an old, slow and soft old man like you can play the main role."
Ram was stunned on the sidelines.
This... doesn't Talista know that Bernoulini is a Sanremo player?
Does he still want to hang out next season?
Who knew that Bernoulini also stared: "Really? Who is that little softie that was just knocked to the ground by this old antique like me? Sanremo really bought the wrong person. I can already predict the ball." The team will score fewer goals next season."
"Apart from foul-like breakthroughs and trash talk, you don't seem to have any advantages."
The two people talked so passionately that many teammates rushed over, fearing that they would start a fight.
But in the end, the two looked at each other and smiled before the referee came over.
A top central defender who is used to seeing big waves, and a rising striker who is good at everything. The two have a close affinity. Although they are rivals, they have already developed a tacit understanding.
In the next few minutes, Italy began to struggle to touch the football again.
Spain kept possession of the ball.
One to zero.
Compared with the difficulties Italy has encountered in the past, this does not seem to be an unacceptable thing.
This time Italy has been called "the devil's second half".
I don’t know why, but in short, even if Italy is two or three goals behind, it can come back in the second half.
Just a ball?
However, every Italian player, including Lu Yang, is not so optimistic at this moment.
Because the feeling Spain brought to them was too depressing.
This score is zero, like a big mountain, crushing Italy down, no matter how hard it resists, it can't break the waves.
Spain's strength is not reflected in the situation, but in statistics and time of possession.
If they don't give Italy any chance to touch the ball, Italy's European Cup journey will end here.
Of course, they can't completely exclude Italy from football.
But what if Italy cannot get past halftime?
Lu Yang needs a helper!
A super defensive player who can get more steals and ball possessions for Italy on the defensive end.
For example...Peak Praxedes or Bernoulini!
Or, a super offensive player who can help Lu Yang cover on the offensive end and improve Italy's offensive efficiency.
For example...Peak Perrotta or Ancarelli.
Lu Yang looked at the pinnacle card in his mind and knew there was no need to keep it.
Although it was used this time, there will be no pinnacle card in the next game.
But if this one is not used, the Italian team will probably not play the next game at all.
"Ding! You used the pinnacle card, and you were randomly selected... The target of the pinnacle card's effect is locked, Ancarelli!"
The pinnacle card takes effect.
Peak Ancarelli.
To say that he is the best forward in the world is absolutely unconvincing.
But it's not because he isn't strong enough, but because in his era, there were too many perverts among forwards.
But if the scope is narrowed down to the useless position of "shadow striker", then Peak Ancarelli is definitely the world's number one shadow striker for a short period of time.
What is Shadow Front?
Advance to end, retreat to initiate an attack.
When others don't pay attention to you, you are a lone wolf who may cause fatal harm to others at any time.
When the opponent pays too much attention to you, they will neglect to defend other forwards, and the gain outweighs the loss.
It is useless to say that it is wrong for others to guard you, and it is also wrong not to guard you.
But equally, for our own side, Shadow Front is equally useless.
In terms of impact, he is not as good as a speed forward.
In terms of initiative, he is not as good as the regular attacking midfielder and fulcrum center.
In terms of effectiveness as a winger, he is not as good as a regular winger.
The omnipotence created by omnipotence is very obvious in Shadow Front.
In addition, in modern football, wingers have become more powerful and functional, and there is basically no room for shadow forwards to survive.
What the shadow forwards can do in the past two years, the wingers in the future can do; what the shadow forwards cannot do, the wingers can also do.
This is also an important reason for the Italian team's previous weak offense.
They seem to have luxurious double arrows, but in fact they only have one and a half strikers!
When they needed Ancarelli, the zebra prince couldn't step up.
And this time, can he stand up?
"Ancarelli, your opportunity has come." Lu Yang found an opportunity to communicate with Ancarelli.
Fortunately, it was now. If the target of the first two pinnacle cards was Ancarelli, Lu Yang would have wasted a card.
Because at that time he and Ancarelli had not yet fully reconciled.
After experiencing many penalty kick incidents such as Lu Yang's concession, Perrotta's concession, and Lu Yang's concession again, Ancarelli has long since let go.
If he has any regrets about this European Cup, it is that he failed to make much positive contribution to Italy's current situation.
Ancarelli's mentality finally adjusted.
Decline is something all older players have to face.
But whether they can accept this matter correctly is what players of this age need to deal with.
The stronger the player was before and the higher the peak, the greater the difficulty he had to face in this matter.
Ancarelli and Perrotta are different.
Shadow Front is an absolute opportunist. They are like assassins. The only thing they need to pay attention to is themselves. They don't need and can't think about it all.
Perrotta is a center or a fulcrum center, and he has the basic qualities of sacrificing his offensive desire for the team's general trend.
In addition, although Perrotta tasted the championship in Rome, it was rare.
Ancarelli won a championship almost every year at Juventus.
This makes it increasingly difficult for Ancarelli to accept the emergence of "menopause."
But Lu Yang taught Ancarelli how to accept it all.
When "menopause" passed, Ancarelli's ideological awareness returned to a normal level, and he finally began to think about his effective contribution instead of being limited to his personal status and data.
"What chance?" Ancarelli didn't know why.
"It's darkest before dawn," Lu Yang said, "And there is a kind of player who is best at attacking a city in absolute darkness. They are natural killers. They will kill you with one strike if they don't take action!"
Ancarelli's eyes lit up.
This is what he used to do most often.
Many people have complained that Ancarelli's efficiency in the past two years has not been high enough.
But in fact, they mistook Ancarelli for an orthodox poacher center.
In fact, Ancarelli is already considered a pervert among the shadow fronters.
During his peak period, he was as efficient as a center as a shadow forward, and he greatly raised people's expectations for shadow forward players.
In the final analysis, Ancarelli's faults in the past two years were all due to him being too strong when he was young.
It is normal for a normal shadow forward to score one or two seemingly insignificant goals in three or five games and more than ten goals in a season.
It is abnormal for a shadow striker to score almost every game in a season, and also have many key goals, and more than 30 goals in the whole season.
And Ancarelli was once such an abnormal shadow fronter.
This is the same misunderstanding caused to fans during the Melo era.
Before Melo, the offensive efficiency of the top strikers in football was probably around 0.5 goals per game. At their peak, some could even reach 0.7 or 0.8.
But Melo averaged about one goal per game all year round, so that later on when people saw 0.6 and 0.7, they no longer felt anything at all, and even thought...that's it?
"I'll try my best, but I don't know if I'm as fast as before." Ancarelli nodded.
The decline in explosive power is one of the keys to his decline in efficiency.
"As long as you want, you can." Lu Yang turned around and joined the defense.
Talista witnessed the exchange between the two and smiled disdainfully. He walked to Lu Yang and said, "Stop struggling, Lu. You have won so many times. It's my turn to win this time."
"It is better to play well than to live well. This is the only truth of international competitions."
"Your defense is making more mistakes and the moment we knock on your door again won't be too far away."
Lu Yang responded: "What? You bribed the referee again and you want to make the ghost score again?"
Talista shut down for a moment.
He only defeated Lu Yang once, and that time he scored an unwarranted goal.
There were a lot of incidents surrounding this goal.
So much so that this European Cup had no choice but to introduce goal-line technology for the first time.
It was much earlier than FIFA popularizing this technology.
I don’t know how much money UEFA lost as a result.
"If you make such a statement, I will report you after the game and you will be finished." Talista was very despicable.
Influencing players' mentality is also a trick he is very good at.
There are indeed players who will be affected by this kind of "additional punishment after the game" and "off-field threats".
Some people are tough on the court but not off the court.
"You have this power." Lu Yang believed deeply, "The complaint channel is originally prepared for players like you who have lost. When the time comes, winners like me will take a look at yours while enjoying champagne. performance."
"Remember, you must shed tears, otherwise it will not be sincere enough to impress the audience."
Talista was almost furious.
Will he lose?
Talista was born to win!
One to zero, how do you win?
Seventy-four minutes.
Italy got a precious counterattack opportunity.
Moric's long pass found Lu Yang.
Lu Yang got the ball steadily in the confrontation with Burgos.
Burgos's passing and escape ability in the midfielder may be close to the top level.
But his frontal defensive ability and physical strength are not top-notch.
Facing Lu Yang's ninety-five strength, Burgos was really helpless.
Lu Yang knocked Burgos away with his back.
Burgos fell to the ground out of habit.
But this time the referee did not call Lu Yang a foul.
This was a legitimate collision.
Lu Yang controlled his movements and used every inch of strength.
Ip Man-Wing Chun kind.
From a distance, it looked more like Burgos was diving, but in fact he was knocked over by Lu Yang.
The referee looked like "If you dive again, I'll give you a yellow card", which made Burgos stand up in pain.
But Lu Yang's direct pass had already spread.
The football streaked past Perrotta's left side.
Perrotta was fighting against Mebarak, and neither of them could touch the ball.
Rubio was coming out to help Burgos defend Lu Yang, but Lu Yang beat him from behind.
This is the loophole in Rubio's defensive arrangement against Lu Yang.
Although they were able to guard against Lu Yang, who had shown great power before, they also missed the ghostly killer in Italy.
Ancarelli inserts into the penalty area!
Real Madrid's Daniel Sanchis is working hard and putting pressure on Ancarelli.
This time Ancarelli was able to insert, mostly his pot.
He kept a certain distance from Ancarelli, but he thought it was a safe distance.
As long as he chases back at full speed, he will soon be able to suppress Ancarelli.
This was true before.
But this time, he miscalculated.
Ancarelli is much faster than before.
Sanchis tried his best but could only stay behind Ancarelli, and he brought very little pressure to Ancarelli.
It was too late for Rubio to catch up and he could only stand still to prevent Ancarelli from passing back to Lu Yang in an inverted triangle.
Maybarak quickly approached Ancarelli's side and positioned himself to prevent Ancarelli from shooting into the far corner.
Ancarelli's shot has such a large arc and high accuracy that he was once known as the King of Far Angle.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this arrangement.
But Mebarak didn't think about it. In this case, who would defend Perrotta?
The replacement left back, Hodi Ava, is only 1.7 meters tall. Can he guard Perrotta?
Of course, Mebarak still chose to block Ancarelli.
Because he knows the striker.
Ancarelli's recent desire to shoot is very strong, and it is almost impossible to give the chance to others.
Not only in this European Cup, but also in the season that just ended, Ancarelli's number of shots also far exceeded that of the previous season.
He went dark.
He was transforming from an opportunistic finisher to a shooting machine, but his transformation was not successful and his performance when targeted was not outstanding.
Although the shooting machine sounds simple, it actually tests the player's performance in the specific environment.
boom!
Ancarelli cums…
Not a shot!
Is it a pass?
Pick a pass!
Mebarak thought something bad in his heart.
He immediately turned around to defend Perrotta.
Ancarelli actually passed the ball!
You know, this is no ordinary pass.
This goal is a milestone.
In the last game, Perrotta scored a hat-trick, tying Italy's previous number one active player Ancarelli in the number of goals scored by the national team.
With Ancarelli's character, what he has to do at this time is to score goals, surpass Perrotta, and maintain his scoring first.
But he actually... gave this opportunity to Perrotta!
he……
How to get to this point?
boom!
The next moment, Maybarak's vision went dark.
The king of heaven covers the tiger of earth!
It’s hard to jump behind!
Mebarak was hit by the leaping Wolf King Perrotta, just like being dunked by the opponent in basketball.
Although he was knocked away, but he could not get a foul, he lost the ball and was considered to be defensively incompetent.
Moreover, it will also become a background for others, and will be sorted out by fans over and over again.
What a loss!
This time, Mebarak regretted why he was so dedicated to his duties.
If he pretended not to realize that the ball was passed to Perrotta, allowing Perrotta to head the ball unguarded, he would not look too bad even if he conceded the ball.
Being accused of poor defense is a temporary thing.
But it takes decades to become the backdrop for other people’s milestone goals!
boom!
with no doubt.
The 1.93-meter-long Wolf King's header in such a relaxed environment has no doubt about its accuracy.
The football slammed into the net.
"An equalizer! Perrotta scored four goals in two games! His form remains the same! He equalized the score for Italy!"
"Ancarelli assists! The connection between him and Perrotta is finally back!"
"This run where Ancarelli ate Sanchis alive was crucial! He got everyone's attention and Mebarak was pulled away because of it."
"He had to defend against Ancarelli's shot, but he had to give up Perrotta."
"Ancarelli and Perrotta, these two strikers, if anyone is ignored, they will punish the defender with goals."
"Lu Yang's penultimate pass was very subtle. He found Ancarelli. He knew Ancarelli would run in that direction! There seemed to be a chemical reaction between them."
"Moric's pass instigated the attack, and he also made his own contribution. The youngster has performed really well in recent games, and he is almost becoming the core of the Italian team's midfield."
One to one!
The game is back to where it started.
Italy left the problem to Spain.
Continue to fall?
Okay, we'll see you in overtime.
But the Spanish midfielder's condition may be difficult to sustain in overtime.
And if players are changed, Spain's midfield system will need to be completely changed.
That is a big change, and their own players may not be able to adapt to it.
Football has muscle memory. A player can adapt to multiple tactics, but it does not mean that he can adapt to multiple tactics in the same game.
He will be confused.
What's more, Spain is the dominant side, so why not end the game within ninety minutes?
A draw in regular time, wouldn't it mean a loss for Spain?
With their strength, they should have won.
So Spain launched a fierce attack.
Enriquez made a surprise attack with the ball from the wing... and was tackled by Praxedes.
Dominguez retreated and dribbled the ball at high speed, but was blocked by Moric. Lahm took the opportunity to steal the ball.
Talista made an elbow strike when he attacked Kijevic, and was sentenced to an offensive foul and lost the ball.
Spain launched multiple attacks in five minutes.
In the 81st minute, Enriquez and Talista, who realized that Praxedes was in hot form, changed positions.
Henriquez once again dribbled the ball down the wing.
Kanyes' defense was poor and he was penetrated by Enriquez.
Enriquez made a sudden cross after cutting inside.
Dominguez fought offside and relied on his super explosive power to eat Kievich alive and successfully grab the point.
Kijevic subconsciously took action and pushed Domingos down.
Beep!
The referee firmly pointed to the penalty spot.
Penalty kick!
At the same time, a yellow card was shown to Kijevic.
Italian fans went crazy.
A penalty kick at this time?
this……
Similarly, Spanish fans feel that happiness comes too suddenly.
They danced one by one.
Kijevic tried to defend himself, but the referee was very firm and indicated that there was no need to say more.
The Italian players were extremely helpless.
Although Dominguez is not the Spanish team's first penalty kicker, he is the team's top scorer, and he made this penalty kick.
If he wants to be punished, no one will argue with him.
Dominguez and Audi looked at each other.
The whistle blows.
Dominguez runs up...Bang!
Spoon penalty!
He deserves to be regarded as a top striker who was successful at a young age and has a big heart.
On such a crucial penalty kick, he dared to take it with a spoon!
In terms of mentality, shooting skills, and ability, Dominguez has no choice.
Audi dived to the side and could only watch the ball go into the net.
Dominguez scored his sixth goal of this European Cup, ranking third on the scorer list!
Two to one!
After five minutes of indiscriminate bombardment, Spain finally got results.
This penalty kick came from the confrontation between Dominguez and Kijevic in the penalty area.
Kievich looked helplessly at the sky.
He realized that he might be the sinner of the Italian team's European Cup trip.
He sent the team home.
"Don't give up! Hurry up!" Lu Yang shouted.
The Italian team quickly prepared for kick-off.
After their complaints, Dominguez had to end his celebration early.
But the Spanish players said they were relaxed.
Because there are less than ten minutes left in the game.
Italy kicks off.
After Lu Yang received Moric's kick, he dribbled the ball directly in the middle.
Ortiz immediately stretched out his foot to intercept.
However, Lu Yang directly used his strength to pick the ball, allowing the football to quickly pass above Ortiz's calf.
At the same time, Lu Yang also accelerated and rushed over.
When Ortiz stretched his legs, he wanted to reach out and grab Lu Yang.
He held on, but then his center of gravity was unstable and he was brought down to the ground by Lu Yang.
This is definitely not Lu Yang's problem.
Lu Yang kicked the ball very far.
As soon as the ball kicked off, the Spanish players stood in a relatively dense position.
Spanish midfielder Burgos rushed towards the oncoming football and had a great chance.
But Lu Yang's acceleration was too fierce.
He is twice as far away from the football as Burgos!
And the football is still moving in the direction of Burgos.
But in the end, Lu Yang picked up the football first and changed the direction of the football.
This posture resembles the current Son of God, Izelet.
This is Lu Yang’s version of Kaka’s stride!
At this stage, Lu Yang's feet are already capable of destroying cities and villages.
Perrotta on the side was hanging behind Lu Yang as if he had been given a shot of blood, and both of them were heading towards the penalty area.
The Spanish centre-back was frightened.
Including the two full-backs also began to shrink inwards.
boom!
Lu Yang scored the ball.
Ancarelli on the left actually maintained the same high speed as Lu Yang, received the ball and entered the offensive third, and then he chose to cut inside.
Sanchis pulled in early and met Ancarelli on a narrow road. He had to be grateful for his alertness, otherwise he would have been shown off by Ancarelli again.
If he had closed a little later, he would have been left behind by Ancarelli again.
Ancarelli pedals a bicycle in a row.
Sanchis was extremely focused.
boom!
Ancarelli chose to bottom.
Sanchis took it easy in order to prevent Ancarelli from making a fake bottom and actually cutting inside.
Everyone knows Ancarelli.
Rather than saying he is a zebra prince, it is better to say he is a dulong prince!
It is said that in live and FIFA games, Ancarelli's bottom tendency is infinitely close to zero.
This is very telling...
But Ancarelli really went to the bottom!
Sanchis took a half step away, and at this moment, it became a half step that he would never be able to catch back!
This time, there was a gap.
Ankare used his left foot, which he is not good at, to hit the ball violently.
Quick low cross pass!
It was exactly the same as Henriquez's previous cross pass.
Lu Yang and Perrotta fired two arrows at the same time, and they were in the same position as Spain's back line. Anyone could encounter the football.
Spanish defender Rubio flew up and raised his leg to block, and the ball was caught before Lu Yang.
Otherwise, Lu Yang would follow up and shoot, scoring a goal every minute.
However...the football changes course at Rubio's toes.
With more force than Lu Yang's shot, he shot into the goal completely unreasonably and caused countless waves.
This shot was even more exciting than Najib’s countless previous goals!
At this moment, Spanish fans are heartbroken!
This is crazy...
Own goals?
If someone gives you some points, you'll get an own goal with your backhand?
Co-author Spain has decided to win the Sportsmanship Award for this year's European Cup, right?
"Two to two! After Spain took the lead for less than three minutes, Italy equalized again!"
"No one expected Lu Yang to advance with the ball from the kickoff. He was too fast, and Ortiz and Burgos were as slow as turtles in front of him."
"Ancarelli's speed is equally astonishing. He just ran a top speed of 35 kilometers per hour! This is the fastest speed he has run in three years!"
"This cross pass is very smart. If you don't pay attention to such a ball, it will be an own goal. Rubio only focuses on defending Lu Yang, but he doesn't know whether he can clear the ball with his own ability."
"Reluctantly defending, sometimes it is better not to defend at all!"
"There are five minutes left in the game, is Italy going to play overtime again?"
"This is not good news for them. They played overtime in the last game. Their physical strength cannot withstand such exertion."
"Spain is also preparing to make substitutions. Their midfielders are also showing signs of being unable to keep up, especially Ortiz."
"The Italian side also has players such as Finger, Cortino, Scamacca, Soger, Kolber and others warming up..."
