Chapter 184: The Heavenly Gods Descend to Earth

readx;

The second half lasted for ten minutes, and the two sides went back and forth, and the attack was very lively, but neither scored. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

But everyone believes that it is only a matter of time before they score, no matter which side they are.

Because everyone is playing too openly.

In the 57th minute, Inter Milan scored in succession.

The first was Sneijder's sudden long-range shot, which was blocked by Simunic and the football was blocked. It wasn't Hoffenheim's players who got the ball, it was Inter Milan's Pandev. They were given a second chance to attack.

Pandev made a feint to shoot and trick Sana into the Hoffenheim penalty area.

"Eto'o!"

The Cameroonian cheetah met the ball with a diagonal run, then turned and shot with his feet, this time the ball was saved by Hildebrand.

"Corner!"

Despite Inter's fierce attack, Hoffenheim took advantage of the corner to play a quick counter-attack from Inter.

Sneijder drove a corner kick and Pogatts got the ball out before Lucio, and it was Cambiaso who received the ball, but his ball didn't stop and was broken by Hoffenheim's Sana.

Sana, who broke the ball, handed the football to Chu Zhongtian, who had already run forward, and Chu Zhongtian did not continue to carry the ball, but directly made a long pass to find Eduardo who went to the front.

After passing the ball, he continued to run.

Other Hoffenheim players also rushed up, like a rising tide, menacing.

And Inter Milan's players are desperately trying to get back to the defense.

In the end, Eduardo did not choose to pass to Salihovic, who was picking up him in the middle, but shot directly from a small angle, and the ball almost went in, because it had already drilled between Cesar's legs, but in the last moment, Cesar dragged the left heel behind him and knocked it down, changed the line slightly, and finally deflected the goal.

Hoffenheim also returned a corner kick from Inter.

After the start of the second half, Inter Milan manager Jose Mourinho did not return to his dugout, and he was a little nervous.

Equally nervous was Rangnick.

Two nervous managers stood on the sidelines, staring at the changes on the field. Occasional instructions are given by shouting and whistling, hand gestures.

"Press it up a little more!"

"The full-backs want an assist!"

"Keep in shape!"

"Cross transposition!"

…… No one wants to concede the ball first, and no one wants to go first.

This sounds a bit contradictory.

But both teams are fighting for it.

The full-back McConn, who was suppressed by Hoffenheim's attack in the first half, came alive in the second half, frequently crossing the halfway line and assisting within the 30-metre zone of Hoffenheim. It doesn't look like a full-back, it looks like a winger.

※※※ In the 64th minute, when Sneijder was in possession of the ball in front of the Hoffenheim penalty area, he was pulled by Sana's shirt, he rushed forward, but Sana grabbed the back of his shirt. Enraged, Sneijder threw his hand backwards and nearly hit Sana.

As the game time went on, the anxiety in the hearts of Inter Milan's players was gradually emerging. If they don't score a goal sooner, the game will be out of play.

Sneijder missed Sana, but caught the referee's attention. The referee immediately blew the whistle to stop the game and awarded Inter Milan a free-kick in front.

There was a huge boo from the Hoffenheim fans in the stands, who thought the referee should have whistled for a foul on Sneijder and given him a yellow card because of his backward waving, as long as he hit Sana, it would be a card and there was a good chance that the color would be red. It's just that Sana didn't put his face up, otherwise even if he shaved lightly, he would have to cover his face with his hands and roll on the ground in pain, so that the referee could directly send Sneijder off.

As the core of Inter Milan's attack, if Sneijder is sent off, Inter Milan's game will be even more difficult.

But the referee not only did not send Sneijder off, but also awarded Inter Milan a free-kick, much to the displeasure of Hoffenheim fans.

"Is it our home turf?" Some fans scolded from the stands.

"Twenty-six meters from the goal." This free-kick is hit straight away from the bottom of the screen. 'Sneijder was in front of the ball, he was a free-kick taker at Real Madrid and he was still in charge of free-kicks when he came to Inter. The Dutchman is very proficient in set-pieces...... Hoffenheim also knew that Sneijder was good at it, so there were seven people in the human wall.

Hildebrand was also nervously leaning against the doorpost to command the position of the human wall: "Hey! Hey! Luther! Lean a little to the left! The whole wall is on the left! Left, left! ”

Sneijder didn't have a quick free-kick and he wasn't going to do that, he just stood in front of the ball and waited for Hoffenheim to set the wall up.

"Even though Inter had some chances to score so far in the second half, it always felt a little bit worse. Unable to score goals in a sports battle, set-pieces would be their best chance. ”

Without warning, tension was already in the Hoffenheim penalty area.

Finally arranging the human wall, Hildebrand signaled that it was OK, and then retreated to his place.

The referee checked the wall and stepped away, before blowing his whistle.

Sneijder runs and shoots with his feet!

The ball arced, bypassed the jumping wall, and crashed into the near corner of the goal!

Hildebrand watched the ball fly out from behind the wall and scrambled to make a save!

Still, the ball flew into the goal before he did!

"The ball is in!!"

After Sneijder shot the football, he looked over and saw it fly into the goal, so he turned and ran to the dugout with his arms outstretched.

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands were collectively stunned for a moment - how did they get in? How did such a simple goal go into our goal?

“goooooooooooooal!!! goooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!! The Italian commentator was most excited, and he shouted in a long voice. goalgoalgoalgoalgoalgoalgoal! goal! goal!! goal!! Wesley. Ned! He did it! He did it! He scored a golden goal for the team! Inter Milan is leading again on aggregate, 4:3! ”

The Inter fans cheered loudly, and the Inter players in the stadium chased Sneijder's back and ran towards the coach's box.

Sneijder ran to the dugout, plunged headlong into the crowd and hugged Mourinho. He has been able to play like this season and I really owe it to Jose Mourinho. When Real Madrid insisted on selling him, it was Mourinho who handpicked him to join, and at Inter Milan, he got the position of the main core, and he can finally show his strength to the world.

Now, in such an important game, to score such a crucial goal, it is natural to thank Mourinho.

In fact, Mourinho is even more grateful to Sneijder, a goal that landed a big stone in his heart. With one goal scored at Hoffenheim's home stadium, Hoffenheim must score one more to ensure they are not eliminated after 90 minutes, and two more goals to get them straight to the curve.

As the players came back to celebrate the goal, he said to everyone: "Defend! Shrink the defense and hit their counter-attack! ”

The Italian commentator criticised Mourinho for being conservative, and Inter Milan at the start of the second half made him very fond of it. But that's the narrator's opinion, after all. As a manager, Mourinho believes he would rather be conservative as long as it will lead him to victory.

The current situation is that if you continue to play against Hoffenheim, you will concede goals sooner or later. But they can defend on the counter-attack because Hoffenheim are desperate to score and they will be desperate to press for the goal, and there will be plenty of space behind them. In the first half, my team didn't make good use of it, and we couldn't do that in the second half.

It's just that whether such a defensive counterattack can withstand Hoffenheim's full attack, Mourinho deliberately put this issue aside in his subconscious and did not think about it.

※※※ "Bastard! Damn it! Damn it! Hildebrand yelled at the ball in the net, he wasn't yelling at any of his teammates, he was just angry that he hadn't saved such a ball. It was this conceded goal that put the initiative of the game back on the side of the opponent Inter Milan.

Like him, there are other team-mates who are just as frustrated with conceding the goal. The blow was a bit big.

Could it be that after more than two weeks of careful preparation, we still couldn't beat the opponent's free kick? Are we going to say goodbye to this season's Champions League?

The thought of that future made everyone's hearts tighten.

"Bang Bang!" Chu Zhongtian's applause rang out.

"The initiative has gone to the opponent's side, but it's okay, brothers!" He shouted. "At the beginning of this game, was the initiative with us? It is up to us to fight for the initiative! So it's no big deal, let's keep attacking and score them one or two more goals! ”

After saying that, he ran to the goal, picked up the football, and held it in his arms. This time he didn't run to the center circle to put the ball down, but handed it to Ibisevic: "Go tee, Ibi." He said to his old friend.

Then he waved to his teammates: "Don't let your opponents underestimate us!" Since we could have scored two of them in the first half, we could still have scored!! ”

※※※Seeing that Inter Milan scored, the commentators who were still singing praises for Hoffenheim just now also changed their support, and agreed that Inter Milan had come back from the dead and had the upper hand in the battle for promotion.

However, He Ping was a little disappointed, he shook his head in the studio and said: "Hoffenheim has prevented Inter Milan's many attacks, but he can't prevent Inter Milan's free kicks. Set-pieces are full of serendipity and this time they were unlucky. Despite the excellent performance of Hoffenheim in this game, the ...... That's football, there's always a lot of accidents that go against what you expect......"

The TV broadcast gave Chu Zhongtian a close-up, as the player who played the best in this game, if his team did not qualify in the end, it would undoubtedly be a big blow to him. The broadcast director also understands this truth, so he expresses his meaning in this way.

"Chu Zhongtian...... He played very, very well and we can't say that Hoffenheim were not strong enough, Hoffenheim was definitely one of the best in Europe, they didn't do anything for Inter in the first half. But luck...... All I can say is that it wasn't good enough. ”

Gong Lei interjected next to him: "Mourinho's team is like this, sometimes the whole game is watched as they are pressed and beaten by the opponent, and they have no power to fight back, but they are the ones who win in the end." Sometimes one or two counter-attacks can decide the outcome of a match. ”

And after Inter Milan scored, there was also a wail on the Internet in China. Before, they were very optimistic about Hoffenheim to stage the myth of a dark horse and overturn Inter Milan, but they didn't expect Inter Milan to rely on an opportunity that was not a chance to score a key goal.

AC Milan fans were angry, and Inter Milan fans regretted that Chu Zhongtian and Hoffenheim played very well, and it was a pity that they did not advance.

※※※Chu Zhongtian knows very well what the current situation of the team looks like. If they can't score goals quickly and put the two sides back on the same page, things will turn against them as time goes on. Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan are very good at defending and counter-attacking...... With little time left, he wasn't sure he and his teammates would be able to stay calm and execute the tactics they had laid out.

Therefore, it cannot be delayed, and the most important thing for the team at the moment is to score goals as soon as possible. As long as a goal is scored, anything can be said, even if it is just a draw on aggregate between the two sides, and the away goal difference is only a draw, which is better than being eliminated as soon as the 90 minutes of the game arrives. A draw would also buy your team 30 minutes of extra time.

If the goal is scored early, and there is still time, maybe you can use this momentum to score another goal?

Before kick-off, Chu Zhongtian shouted to his teammates: "Kick like the first half!" ”

Everyone knows what to do.

It's really not the time to be frustrated, there are still twenty-five minutes left in the game, how can you be willing to give up so early?

Attack, just like in the first half!

The captain was right, since we could have scored two goals against them in the first half, they couldn't fight back. Now if we want to, we can score them again!

The referee blew the whistle for the restart of the game, and Van Nistelrooy kicked the football to Ibisevic, who turned around and passed the ball to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian's position is a little higher than before, which is a signal that the team is going to attack aggressively.

Chu Zhongtian did not pass the ball after receiving the ball, but rushed forward with the ball himself.

He only got the ball out when he was blocked by Sneijder, but it was soon at his feet again. He continued to dribble the ball until he faced the second Inter player who came up to intercept him.

This time he divided the football directly to the side, Salihovic made a cross, but took the football horizontally to the middle, and at the same time, Chu Zhongtian overtook him and pulled it to the side.

He is the heart of Hoffenheim's attack, and the Inter Milan players know that Hoffenheim basically gives him football in attack, and where others are, Hoffenheim's attacking direction is there.

So Inter Milan's defense leaned on the side where Chu Zhongtian was.

Who would have thought that Salihovic did not pass the football to Chu Zhongtian behind him, but directly passed an overhead ball to Eduardo on the other side!

Chu Zhongtian is a feint!

Inter Milan hurriedly shifted the focus of defense again, from full-back to central defender, all changed the defensive object, the central defender made up to the wing, and the full-back made up to the middle.

"Eduardo catches the ball and bursts into the box! Pretty! ”

Hoffenheim fans rose from their seats and cheered loudly for the team.

Eduardo had several such chances in this game, receiving a clever pass from a team-mate, then bursting into the box and choosing to shoot directly at the goalkeeper.

Therefore, this time everyone thought he was going to shoot, and Cesar, Lucio, Zanetti and Motta almost surrounded him in the middle, just not allowing him to shoot.

Eduardo didn't shoot this time, and in the encirclement, he suddenly raised his foot to pick up a pass!

It all happened in a very short time, and from the time he received the ball into the box to the time he passed it, it probably didn't add up to more than three seconds.

The ball draws a parabola in the air and crashes straight behind the goal!

Cesar's eyes were on the football, and his body turned for the first time, ready to block the Hoffenheim player's shot. In fact, he didn't know if there were Hoffenheim players in ambush in the back, and he didn't know who and where it would be if there were. It was all an instinctive reaction of the goalkeeper.

The football went to the back of the goal, followed by Cesar.

"Cross!"

"Chu!"

The instinct of the goalkeeper is often right, because it is Hoffenheim's captain who appears at the back door, and Chu Zhongtian, who is in good shape today, is not like words!

Cesar is not alone, and while Eduardo has managed to attract a huge number of Inter Milan players, Samuel is still to come.

He looked up at the soccer ball and looked backwards for where it landed.

Behind him, Chu Zhongtian, who was inserted at high speed from the side of the penalty area, jumped high when he was still some distance away from the goal, and made a posture of heading the goal.

"Behind you, 'The Rocks'!!" Cambiaso, who saw all this on the side, shouted to remind his Argentine teammates.

Samuel couldn't see what was going on behind him, but he heard Cambiaso's reminder that the ball couldn't be grabbed by the person behind him anyway, he didn't know who that person was, it didn't matter. This ball can be cleared by rubbing back, but the difficulty is too high, and it must not be pushed in the direction of the goal, although he is now facing the goal, which is the most effortless and simple, but this is an own goal. The safest way to do this is to shake your head in the air, throw the ball off the line and lose a corner to Hoffenheim.

Walter ......" his teammates around him saw the danger and wanted to warn him that it was too late.

Samuel suddenly felt that he had been slammed from behind, his center of gravity was completely lost, and his body was about to move forward. At the same time, when he was knocked forward, he saw a shadow under his feet, and another shadow above his shadow.

Chu Zhongtian jumped up, his waist almost touched Samuel's shoulder, he leaned down, poked his head forward, and made a powerful punch to the top of the football with the momentum of Mount Tai!

At the same time as the ball flew out, Samuel also fell headlong through the air.

Cesar struggled to save, his hand touching the ball, but with such a powerful header, such a block would not have helped!

The ball hit the tip of his finger and changed direction slightly, heading straight to the top of the goal until it was stopped by the net. Boom! Slam it into the ground again.

3:1!

The gods descend to earth!
