Graimi scored Newcastle United's third goal, but the team celebrated for no more than half a minute as there was no time left in the first half.

The referee urged the game to restart.

After Villarreal attacked twice in a row, the referee simply blew the final whistle, and the score of the first half was fixed at '3:0'.

Newcastle United had a three-goal advantage and every player felt very relaxed as they returned to the dressing room with a smile on their faces.

Head coach Kevin Keegan is also very relaxed, he feels that there is nothing wrong with the game, but Zhen Shaolong must also take care of it, he pondered the last time, Zhen Shaolong's continuous retreat, and he also worked with Geremi to complete a wonderful goal.

Generally speaking, Keegan does not interfere with Zhen Shaolong's performance.

It's different now.

If Zhen Shaolong retreats for a long time, he should adjust the lineup to adapt to Zhen Shaolong's retreat, so as to make the midfield more coordinated and able to play a stronger level of strength.

Keegan found Zhen Shaolong, "Are you going to keep retreating?" Or just trying? ”

Zhen Shaolong thought about it, nodded and said, "I'm going to try it later." ”

The 'All Wishes Come True' effect is best suited for passing, and he also wants to pass the classic ball when he has the chance, after all, there are very few opportunities for similar experiences, and it is almost impossible on weekdays.

"Okay!"

Keegan said he knew.

Meantime.

Owen was also talking to Milner happily, "Didn't you notice? Zhen starts passing! ”

"I have already talked to Zhen just now, he said let me cheer, he must pass the ball to me!"

"In the second half, I'm sure I'll score!"

Owen is looking forward to it.

See Grami? That guy doesn't know how to play as a striker at all, and even running is full of problems, but he still cooperates with Zhen Shaolong to complete the goal, and when he receives the ball at the end, the pass is so comfortable that he scores when he gets up, and Geremi also completes the goal with this.

Owen is also looking forward to scoring himself.

At this point, Keegan beckoned everyone over and spoke about the adjustment strategy, "We're going to make some adjustments. ”

"Michael."

Keegan called out Owen's name, "In order to play better, you need to get off the court and take a break, Mark (Viduka), you go!" Remember, attract the defense and look for opportunities to shoot! ”

"Okay."

Viduka nodded.

This change was very unexpected for Viduka, who is the team's fourth striker, Martins is above him in the rankings, and he originally thought it would be difficult to play in the Champions League, but he did not expect to be substituted.

That's not bad either.

Viduka's contract with Newcastle United expires at the end of May and he has decided to return to Australia at that time to play for his home club until he retires.

He will only be able to play in this Champions League in his career.

Now that he can play in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Viducaton feels good, and he can show his face before he leaves, and experience the feeling of a top club competition, which he needs to remember and use as a talking point when he returns to educate Australia's younger generations.

Owen didn't feel so good.

If it weren't for the fear of offending the famous Keegan and causing him to not have a chance to play in the next major tournament, Owen would have wanted to ask loudly, "Why replace me!" ”

"I'm going to score a goal soon!"

It's a pity that there are no ifs.

Owen knows that his influence is too much worse than Zhen Shaolong, there is no more of him in the front line, and there is no less of him, Zhen Shaolong with Martins and Verduka, the same performance will not be bad.

This is tragic.

With the word depressed on his face, Owen could only sit in the corner with his head buried in it, convincing himself to accept the fact that he had been replaced.

————

Soon.

At the start of the second half, the two teams made substitutions immediately.

For Villarreal, Manuel Pellegrini opted to replace a full-back with the aim of increasing the defence on the flanks, with Duff's impact on the right being too threatening.

Newcastle United brought on Viduka.

The substitution only allowed the commentator to say, "Keegan probably wanted Viduka to draw the attention of the defense. Owen was not mentioned, the most famous player of the main Newcastle United is Zhen Shaolong, Owen's importance was greatly reduced, and fans didn't care much about Owen being substituted.

Also, Owen's performance is really bad.

Not to mention that there was no goal in the first half, and two chances were wasted, especially the one when Zhen Shaolong passed, but he didn't seize a very good opportunity, which was impressive.

Viduka's appearance is credited with helping to draw defensive attention.

Actually, it's not.

Keegan also drew attention to Viduka, but more importantly, he was able to grab headers.

Zhen Shaolong decided to continue to create opportunities for his teammates, Keegan simply replaced Viduka, who has strong header ability, Owen and Martins are a little unsuitable, they must run out of the open space to receive the pass and score the ball.

Viduka is easy to attack, and with his good header Barton, he can create enough threat for opponents as long as there is constant support from behind.

This allows Geremi to return to his position as well.

Geremi's playmaking, big-picture vision, and even game experience are a bit better than Joey Barton, and he's not the kind of player who has great individual skills, but he's no problem being the heart of the offense.

In the second half, Newcastle United's attacking style suddenly changed, and they began to focus on long passes and hanging and fighting for the top in the penalty area.

Zhen Shaolong felt that it was simple.

In the rest of the first half, he had to constantly watch the position of his teammates and look for opportunities to pass the ball to his teammates, but now he doesn't have to do it at all, he just stands on the periphery, or even further outside, and the football comes with a kick right away.

Hang the pass!

Ten meters or twenty meters outside the penalty area, Zhen Shaolong can easily send the ball into the penalty area, and 'all wishes come true' can make him play very accurately.

Tournaments just got easier.

The teammates sent the ball to Zhen Shaolong's feet, and Zhen Shaolong sent the ball into the penalty area.

Then Barton and Viduka fight for the top!

Newcastle United's attack is like this every time, the opponent's defense of Viduka and Barton is very tight, but the header is like this, the long pass rush that is completely unreasonable, it is a battle in the air and has nothing to do with the ground, there is not much difference between two people defending and three people defending.

Villarreal also tried to restrain Zhen Shaolong, but their efforts for a long time were in vain--

As long as the football rolls towards Zhen Shaolong, he will be able to pass the ball.

In a variety of ways--

Barb!

Pick the pass!

Head the ball over!

Swing your heels and kick straight forward while running!

Wait a minute.

Zhen Shaolong kept passing the ball into the penalty area in a variety of ways, and also let Barton and Viduka in the penalty area enjoy the feeling of a 'long-term opportunity', and their job is to try to convert a very beautiful hanging pass into a goal through various shooting methods.

Newcastle United's simple style of play quickly paid off.

In the 61st minute of the game, Viduka squeezed two defenders, jumped up and shook his head and sent the ball into the bottom corner of the goal.

4 to 0!

This goal is just the beginning.

Ten minutes later, Viduka was in the middle of the box, received a pass and volleyed!

It was a brilliant shot that gave Newcastle United a five-goal lead over Villarreal.

Perhaps it was the ease of a big lead, Newcastle United were a little negligent in defending, and in the 76th minute, Villarreal midfielder Cazorla scored a goal with a long-range shot from the outside, but soon Viduka scored another header to help the team make the score "5-1".

"The ball is in!"

"Viduka again! Veteran Viduka! He scored a hat-trick on the bench for half-time! ”

"It's an amazing show!"

"Viduka! Viduka ...... However, the most shining on the field is still Zhen Shaolong, he keeps making balls for Viduka, and the submarine pays a lot of energy to restrict Zhen Shaolong, but Zhen Shaolong can always use various ways to accurately pass the ball to Viduka! ”

"It's amazing!"

"From Zhen Shaolong's passes again and again, we can see how accurate his footwork is, even if he uses his back heel kick, he can accurately hoist the ball above Viduka's head......"

————

Zhen Shaolong's performance left Villarreal without the slightest recourse, they kept trying to defend, but they ended in failure again and again, except for setting off the wonderful performance of the opponent, it seemed to make no sense.

Villarreal's morale has also been almost depleted in the failed defense again and again.

They feel hopeless.

The two sides have only played one round, and Villarreal feels that it is impossible to win, and the big score is a direct blow, losing four goals in a single game, how to play in the second round?

Quite a few players looked at Manuel Pellegrini.

Pellegrini has always been Villarreal's spiritual pillar, and the miracles he led the team to create were recognized by everyone, but Pellegrini was also helpless at this time.

What can he do?

The pre-match preparation was proved to be wrong, Zhen Shaolong's performance was not at all reasonable, and the opponent even pulled back to constantly perform passing skills, yes, it was a performance.

"If you put this technique near the penalty area, you might be able to score 10 goals!"

"He didn't play seriously at all!"

"Perhaps, he only took the game as casual and didn't pay attention to it at all, which means that our defense is useless at all."

Manuel Pellegrini felt very helpless.

In fact, Zhen Shaolong wanted to 'perform' near the penalty area, but the activation of 'all wishes come true' was too embarrassing, and his habit was to shoot, and shooting just couldn't activate the effect.

That's why he chose to pass the ball.

Zhen Shaolong also felt very regretful, but the sincere thanks of his teammates gave him comfort.

"Thank you! Examine! ”

"You must have seen me play, that's why you're doing this, right? I knew it! ”

Viduka was thrilled.

Scoring a hat-trick in the Champions League, nothing like it has ever been in his career, in fact, he has only played in the Champions League for Celtic and scored only once in qualifying.

Now it's the Champions League main game, the knockout round!

"I was able to score a hat-trick!" While Verduka sighed, he also felt very excited, he knew that his performance was inseparable from Zhen Shaolong's assist support.

Zhen Shaolong has been trying to find a chance for him.

Viduka decided that Zhen Shaolong did it for himself, he is so grateful to Zhen Shaolong, and the Champions League hat trick is definitely the peak of his career.

This hat-trick is enough for him to brag about for a lifetime!

Ahem......

Not bragging!

Viduka insists that he is only ready to use his success story to educate the younger generations of Australian football so that they can follow his example.

This is a contribution to the cultivation of young talents!
