Chapter 92: Penalties

******

Ailo received a through ball from Aimar on the left sideline, and Atletico Madrid's left-back Sergi and midfielder Mendina rushed up at the first time, standing on both sides of Ailo very tacitly, just blocking his two routes of horizontal dribbling and bottoming.

"Atletico Madrid's defense is really airtight! Every time Valencia's players get the ball, they are a defender who faces at least two, and it seems that Atletico Madrid is ready to hold on to the score until the end! ”

"That's right, if they finish with this scoreline, they will overtake Villarreal to become fourth in the league, and at the same time, they will also stop the home team Valencia from winning six consecutive league games, so why not? Attaboy! Atletico Madrid!! ”

Super fast reaction speed, in the face of the defense of the two, Iroh touched the ball lightly with the outside of his right foot, and the two opposite sides also retreated with the frequency of Iro. Just when Sergi and Mendina retreated to the penalty area, Ailo suddenly flicked the ball to the right with his right foot, took advantage of a time difference, shook off the angle, and picked up his right foot!

"He's going to shoot from a distance and stop him !!"

The nervous Ferrando stood on the sideline, staring at his own half-court qiē, and suddenly roared.

Meanwhile, Sergi and Mendina fell to the ground to make tackles and widen the defensive area.

As they both fell to the ground, Iroh smiled weirdly.

What is he laughing at? Could it be ???

Sergi immediately felt bad!

Sure enough, Iroh's right foot did not hit the football, but instead shot into a dunk, dunking the ball back to his left foot, and then inserted the tip of his right foot into the bottom of the football, and gently lifted it hard, and the ball passed over the legs of the two people who fell to the ground. At the same time as picking up the ball, he kicked hard with his left foot, and his body also jumped over the two who lost their positions.

aiaiaiaiaiaiiiiiiiiiii――

Iroh's action stunned the guys in the stands, and they watched in amazement.

"Wow!! This and this - isn't this the kind of pick-and-roll that we only had when we watched Japanese anime football boys when we were kids?? ”

Sergi, who had fallen to the ground, saw that Iroh was about to cross over.

The head is suddenly short-circuited!!

"Louis, go stop him!!" Ibanez was fighting for a position with Albelda, who was in front of him, and couldn't walk away, and after seeing Sergi and Mendina lose their positions, he immediately spoke to Perea.

Right! I can still stop him!!

Just as Perea had just left his position, ready to stop Iroh from breaking through.

Seigil's right foot in the tackle was raised violently, so that Iro, who had just jumped up, could not dodge, and Iro's right foot hit Sergi's right leg directly against the bone, and he suddenly lost his center of gravity in the air and fell heavily to the ground.

hhhooooooooooooooooo――

As soon as Iroh fell to the ground, the home fans in the stands were making a loud noise, they were putting pressure on the referee, this is a penalty area!!

Ailuo, who fell to the ground, suddenly stopped doing it, he made such a beautiful breakthrough, but he was brutally destroyed by this guy, sitting on the turf of the penalty area, raising his arms to the sky, and looking at the referee.

Beep!

The referee's whistle came belatedly.

"Ai fell in the restricted area!! Will this be a penalty? ”

Seeing that Iroh fell in the penalty area, and the referee also blew the whistle, Torres, who was standing in the middle circle, suddenly felt cold in his heart, but as the captain, he had to stand up for his players, and hurriedly ran back to his own penalty area, walked in front of the referee, pointed to Iroh who fell to the ground, and said, "This is a fake fall!" Fake Fall!! ”

He explained, along with the movements of a diver.

At this time, the Valencia players were not used to it, and they all surrounded and yelled at Torres

"Why the hell are you faking a fall!"

"Your whole family is faking falls!!"

"Boy, are you blind?"

Seeing that his captain was being bullied, the players of Atletico Madrid immediately stopped doing it, and also surrounded it, pointing at the players of Valencia and yelling

"Grandson, if you are not convinced, you can go it alone!"

"Don't think it's your home stadium and we're scared of you!"

"Let's do one and do one, let's do two and let's do a pair!!"

Seeing that the two sides were about to clash, the referee blew the whistle twice urgently, and at the same time blocked his body between the players on both sides.

Then he pressed down with both palms, signaling the players on both sides to calm down and listen to him

"I can see clearly, this is indeed a foul!"

Then he took out a yellow card from his pocket and flashed it at Sergi.

At this time, the Valencia players all laughed and whistled at the Atletico Madrid players who yelled at them just now: Hey, you can see clearly, it was indeed your foul!!

The referee raised his right arm and pointed his left index finger to the line of the penalty area and awarded a foul on the sideline of the Atletico Madrid penalty area.

All the players of Atletico Madrid, including the coach's bench, the stands, and all the fans who care about Atletico Madrid, breathe a sigh of relief! Good thing it's not in the restricted area!!

Just when they were rejoicing, the referee seemed to have received a signal from the referee on the sideline, so he hurriedly ran over.

The players on both sides on the field immediately had countless question marks on their heads.

"That foul was in the box."

"Are you sure??" The referee glanced at the sideline referee suspiciously, he was not standing in a good position at the time, and he did not see clearly whether the foul was in the penalty area or outside the penalty area, but the assistant referee should have seen the situation most clearly.

"I'm so sure!!" The sideline referee replied with a firm face.

Just as the referee and the assistant referee were communicating, the big screen on the Mestalla stadium also replayed the foul just now: Iello cleverly picked the ball past Segir and Mendina who fell to the ground with his toes, and then jumped over with his left foot, and finally Sergi raised his right leg and tripped Iro.

Then, the big screen once again came to a slow-motion replay, and the time was just the moment when Sergi raised his leg and tripped Elo, as if it was in the penalty area, but it didn't seem to be.

So the big screen switched angles again.

"The referee suddenly ran to the touchline and stood with the assistant referee and exchanged ears, what were they discussing? Will there be a change in this foul, or?? It's a penalty!! Foul in the box!! ”

Just as Hyde was guessing, the big screen replayed the location of the foul just now, which was indeed in the penalty area.

Penalty kick???

Sure enough, after a brief exchange between the referee and the assistant referee, he ran into the penalty area with small steps and pointed his left index finger at the penalty spot in the Atletico Madrid penalty area.

Penalty kick!!

"After a brief exchange between the referee and the assistant referee, they ran into the Atletico Madrid penalty area and awarded Valencia a penalty!!"

"At the last moment, the referee listened to the assistant coach's explanation and changed the free kick on the line of the penalty area to a penalty, which is a decision that requires courage.

"Oh my God, the referee pointed to the penalty spot!!"

The commentators in the studio, each talking to their own radio microphones.

Now all the players of Atletico Madrid are in a hurry! A penalty was awarded to the home side in the last minute of stoppage time!!

Torres took the lead and ran to the assistant's side, anxiously pulling his arm, "Sir, this is not a foul in the penalty area, absolutely not!!" ”

As he spoke, his right index finger kept shaking.

The rest of the Atletico Madrid team gathered around and pressed the assistant referee to uphold the decision.

"I'm pretty sure it was a foul !! in the box"

When Torres and the assistant referee argued, the big screen switched several shots one after another, no matter which shot it was, it was a foul in the penalty area, which made the home fans in the stands completely reassured.

The referee watched Torres reluctantly pull the assistant referee, and immediately became unhappy, and hurriedly ran over, and in the process of running, he took out a yellow card from the bag on his chest and showed it to Torres.

"Boy, calm down, it's a penalty!"

Torres was dissatisfied with the decision and received a yellow card late, which calmed him down for a while.

But the rest of the Atletico Madrid team couldn't stand it anymore, and the young central defender Perea, mainly the young central defender, appealed to the referee again and put pressure on him.

But the referee's attitude was very firm, smiling and pointing to the penalty spot.

Seeing that the referee was about to show the cards to the Atletico Madrid players again, Torres, who was quick-eyed, hurriedly pushed away a few people who wanted to continue to appeal, "Go, go, return to your position!" ”

The referee's face can not be given, but the captain's face must be given, so he is reluctant to retreat to the outside of the big penalty area.

After such a fuss, two minutes passed.

******

oh――yes!!

Sitting on the turf of the penalty area, Iroh saw that the referee had changed a penalty, and jumped up from the turf, clenched his fist into the void, and swung it out.

Then came a hug with Albelda, Baraja and Vicente.

Here I quote a poem by my country's poet Lu You: The mountains and rivers are poor and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village! This is just the right way to describe the Valencia where Iroh is! In the last half minute of the game, they were awarded a penalty and if it had been scored, they would have equalised!! He was also happy when he saw the referee award a penalty to Valencia.

Ranieri, the head coach in the dugout, also high-fived assistant coach Benetti in celebration.

It takes a lot of courage for the referee to award a penalty before the end of the game, and often the penalty awarded at the last minute, whether it is right or wrong, will become the focus of post-match discussion!

Back to the point, the referee had just given Torres a yellow card, and when he got to the edge of the box, Albelda had already placed the ball on the penalty spot.

The referee's insistence deterred all the Atletico Madrid players and never appealed to the referee again, which also made him breathe a sigh of relief after withstanding the pressure to award the home team a penalty.

Albelda looked at the referee, who was waiting for the referee to blow the whistle.

At this moment, the referee suddenly stretched out his hand to signal Albelda not to take the penalty for the time being, and then turned and ran towards the away team's coach's box, knowing that Ferrando stopped in front of him, took out a bright red ruby God of War card from his trouser pocket, and flashed it towards Ferrando.

"Shit! You're a fucking piece of shit!! ”

The referee's fair face suddenly turned black into an African!

"I'll write that in the post-match report, sir!"

"Just write, I'll be afraid??"

The referee's face darkened again...

Ferrando was about to continue scolding the referee, but he was forced to drag him down by the assistant coach of height and weight.

Gradually, all I could hear was Ferrando's voice getting smaller and smaller, "Shit, dog..."
