Volume 7 Heart of the Lion King Chapter 53 Conflict

Evan on the podium when Ribery fell in the penalty area at Nottingham Forest. It was as if Dogotti had eaten a plate of caterpillars raw, and his expression was wonderful. But what's more exciting is definitely not off the field, but on the field.

After Pepe pushed Ribery, he thought that his hand was very light, at most it was just to interfere with Ribery's movements and prevent him from having the first chance to shoot. But he didn't expect Ribery to fall in the Forest penalty area. It was exactly a penalty!

Seeing Ribery lying on the ground, Pepe suddenly became furious, and a wave of evil fire rushed to his head, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

He first kicked Ribery directly in the leg, and the kick was so hard that he lost his center of gravity and fell next to Ribery.

It's not over yet. He pressed Ribery's head again, gritted his teeth and roared in Ribery's ear: "You are a fucking vile liar!! Bastard! You ...... Bastard! ”

He wanted to continue to shout, but he didn't realize that with all his strength, Ribery's face was crushed and deformed.

This scene looks really terrifying to outsiders.

Pepe didn't know it. His hands were still straining, and his mouth was still growling. Until he was slammed together by two people, his feet were not honestly about to kick Ribery.

"Pepe!" Bale struggled to hold Pepe, while Woodgate got in front of Pepe and prevented him from pounceing on Ribery.

Ribery was still lying on the ground.

Real Madrid's players have rushed over to fight for Ribery. Higuain stepped forward to find Pepe's theory, but Pepe punched Higuain in the face through Woodgate!

At this time, Pepe had a completely different impression of being a good old man, he was furious like a storm, and everyone in front of him had to be prepared to bear his wrath.

"Damn, you're still beating people!" Benzema rushed up to get revenge on Pepe, and he saw Higuain crouching down with half of his face covered, and it seemed that the punch was not clear.

Before he could run up, he was separated by the Forest players.

Players from both sides huddled together in that small area, pushing and shoving, and scolding with dry mouths. For a while, the scene was chaotic.

Although Bell and Woodgate pulled Pepe and tried to separate him. But Pepe still relentlessly broke free from their restraints and rushed towards Ribery. At the same time he kept shouting: "You liar! You fucking don't fake! Bastard traitor! Fake fall cheat penalty, what are you! Bastard! ”

"Enough, enough!" Bale pulled Pepe's body from behind, feeling struggling. Pepe, who was held by him, was like an angry bull. "Stop scolding, Pepe! You're in trouble! You're going to be sent off with a red card! ”

"Punishment is punishment!" The red-eyed Pepe didn't care if he would be sent off or not, and now he was like a good lesson to the traitor who faked the fall. He jerked his shoulders and opened Bell and Woodgate, looking to rush on.

That's when George. Wood slapped him in the neck, leaving him with the dirty words stuck in his throat and unable to spit out. No one saw where Wood came from, and no one saw him strike.

He looked at Pepe, who was a little stunned, with a cold face: "Calm down." ”

Pepe had a bruise on his neck, and he was battling Wood. It's a pity that he can't beat this captain who is much stronger than himself, so he can only grit his teeth and look at Wood.

Wood pushed Pepe back with a hard hand: "Get out of here!" ”

He ...... Damn it! Pepe let out a low roar from deep in his throat.

"This is not a boxing ring." Wood stared at Pepe, and after saying that, he pounced on him, hugged Pepe firmly, and dragged him down the field.

"Let me go, let me teach that cowardly traitor a lesson!"

Pepe was still struggling, but to no avail, he couldn't resist Wood and ended up being dragged to the sidelines.

While Pepe was still struggling, the referee also got out of the middle of the impulsive group of players and ran towards Pepe. Then show Pepe a straight red card!

Real Madrid fans in the stands booed Pepe, while Nottingham Forest fans booed Ribery, who faked a fall. There were only boos in the stands at this time.

After Wood dragged Pepe to the sideline, he slapped him out again. Pepe didn't return to the pitch this time, he just chattered at the assistant referee who provided the basis for the referee's penalty on the sidelines: "You bastard referee, I suggest you better wear glasses next time!" No, bring your brains with you! ”

The assistant referee also shot back unflinchingly: "You, a violent person, are not qualified to dictate my work." ”

Pepe ignored him, swearing "fucking" and "fucking" as he walked over to the road, still scolding. Donn slapped him on the back of the head.

"What are you doing?" Don glared at Pepe, who was stunned. "Look at what you've done! We were awarded a penalty and one less! ”

Pepe wanted to defend himself: "I didn't foul it, it was a fake fall......"

"Even if it's a fake fall, you can't calm down? Bastard! Don pulled Pepe along the way. Give me a good idea of going back to the locker room! ”

Pepe was still unconvinced, he pointed to the field and yelled angrily: "Even if I'm calm, calm like a fucking iceberg!" The referee will also give me a yellow card, I already have one on me, boss! ”

Don was frightened by Pepe's sudden outburst. He looked at Pepe, opened his mouth but said nothing.

"I hate that bastard Ribery! I hate him! But I didn't just hate him just now! I hate him to the bone! Use a despicable fake fall to cheat a penalty, let me go off the field with two yellows! That's all the dog was going to do! I'm going to make him pay! I can't take this breath! ”

Pepe clenched his fists and shouted.

"But you're paying us the price now......" Donn spread his hands, his tone less intense than before.

In the players' corridor, in the corridor that no one saw, listening to the overwhelming boos outside, Pepe seemed to have finally calmed down. He was silent for a moment, then lost all strength and his shoulders collapsed.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Chief......" he muttered in a low voice. It is like a child who has realized his mistake and is begging for his father's forgiveness.

Don stepped forward and touched his bald head: "Frank is already a Real Madrid player, so he naturally has to think about things from Real Madrid's point of view." You two are just enemies on the playing field, not enemies for life. If you want him to pay, you should try to stay on the pitch, beat him and his team, lift the trophy in front of his eyes. Speaking of this, Don sighed, "But it's useless to say anything now, you've been sent off." Let's go back to the locker room......"

Unexpectedly, Pepe shook his head and said very firmly, "No, boss." I'm right here and I'm going to watch our team beat Real Madrid. ”

Don shrugged: "Whatever you want." ”

Then he turned and walked out of the corridor and returned to the dugout.

At this moment, the conflict on the field is over. George. As soon as Wood pushed Pepe off the field, the crowd had already dispersed. The referee gave Mitchel and Benzema, who were involved in the clash, a yellow card and a 50 board each. However, this does not diminish the smell of gunpowder between the two teams. The Nottingham Forest players are still glaring at the Real Madrid players.

The culprit in all this, Frank. Ribery was surrounded by his Real Madrid teammates, and the people around him were smiling happily and even excitedly, but Ribery's own smile was a little reluctant and his emotions were not high.

Of course, he knew that he was exaggerating the power of Pepe's push, and with such a gentle push, he couldn't even move his center of gravity if he wanted to. But if he did, he would not have been 100 per cent sure of the Forest's goal. In that case, why insist on it? Almost 80 percent of the attacking players will probably choose to fall to the ground cleanly and cheat a penalty when faced with such a situation...... No, this can no longer be said to be "deception", this is the rule of reasonable utilization......

Thinking about it like this, the guilt in his heart decreased a little. He exited the box and waited for his team-mate to take the penalty.

As long as this goal is scored, then Real Madrid will be pulled back from the edge of the cliff. The suspense of the game will continue. Real Madrid fans don't have to leave the stadium early.

He stood outside the penalty area, looking at Higuain who was setting up the football, his palms sweaty.

※※※

When Chris Rac saw Donn walking back, he greeted him and asked, "How's Pepe?" ”

"I feel like I've stabilized emotionally." Donn looked at the pitch as he walked. "Higuain is here to take the penalty......"

"Honestly, Tony...... Pepe just now scared me. I've never seen him so angry. ”

"I haven't seen it either." Don glanced at his assistant. "But...... Maybe there is always a place where everyone can never be provoked, and there is always something that will make them unbearable......"

To be honest, Don has to thank Pepe, because if Pepe doesn't break out, he will probably be the one who will be sent off. When he saw Ribery fake a fall, he almost blurted out the swear words, and then he saw Pepe's sudden frenzy. So Donne, who was shocked by Pepe, naturally swallowed the dirty words back in his mouth. Then Pepe attracted everyone's full firepower, and he didn't have to do that again......

※※※

"Replay Pepe's action...... It was a surprise to us. "Even though Pepe has been sent off the pitch with a red card, the commentators were shocked by his performance." Pepe has a good temper with Nottingham Forest and a clean defence, but he hasn't even received a red card this season and most of the time the conflict on the pitch has nothing to do with him. But such a good gentleman turned out to be like crazy. Maybe it's because the pressure of the final is too much......"

His foul gave Real Madrid a chance to equalise before the break, and he probably broke out because of that. Judging from the slow motion, Pepe is indeed pushing, but Ribery is too exaggerated...... With such a slight push, he actually dived down as if he had been hit by a big truck......"

The commentator didn't say it was a fake, but he also felt that Ribery's performance was exaggerated, and Nottingham Forest's penalty was a little wronged......

※※※

It's useless to have a little bit of wrong, even if it's really Ribery's fake fall, and the referee has already made a penalty, so naturally it can't be changed. The Nottingham Forest players stood outside the box with a look of dismay, waiting for Gonzalo Higuain to kick the penalty.

When Gonzalo Higuain took the penalty, the visiting fans behind the Forest goal booed wildly, trying to interfere with the Argentine striker's psyche.

Higuain was under tremendous pressure and calmly deceived Akinfeev and scored the ball.

The stands shook as if there had been an earthquake.

The depressed emotions of Real Madrid fans who had been holding back for dozens of minutes were finally expressed. They waved their fists in the stands and cheered, and at that moment, only one voice could be heard at the huge Bernabeu Stadium:

"Hooray, Madrid!!"

※※※

Akinfeev was completely deceived by Higuain's previous look, and when he pounced, he realized that he had pounced in the wrong direction, and he turned his head in mid-air to watch the football fly straight into the middle......

Before Gonzalo Higuain's penalty, the Forest players and fans were still hoping for luck – with so much pressure, maybe the Argentine would have kicked the ball straight away?

It's a pity that Higuain's psychological quality now is by no means what he used to be.

After the goal, Higuain ran under the stands where Nottingham Forest fans gathered and made a "shut up" gesture. What he got was, of course, a lot of boos.

Akinfeev kicked the bouncing ball into the midfield in frustration. Conceding a goal in the last minute of the game was a demoralisation blow.

Michelle stood on the sidelines applauding the penalty, while Donn stood with his chest crossed, keeping his face straight and not saying a word.

What the two managers are thinking, you can tell by looking at their expressions.

Michelle must be glad he and his team survived. And Don En was scolding his mother in his heart because of this penalty that he expected.

The Real Madrid players were still celebrating their goals, while the Nottingham Forest players were dejected. Just after the penalty was awarded, the fourth official also announced the stoppage time on the sidelines.

Due to the clash caused by Pepe, a full five minutes of stoppage time were given.

Real Madrid fans and Nottingham Forest fans were happy with the stoppage time as they didn't want to give up the game and go straight to extra time.

In this regard, the Real Madrid players seem to have more fighting spirit, and they are in high spirits after the equaliser, and they are eager to resume the game immediately and go straight to the Yellow Dragons.

Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, was stunned by the ball, and there were players surrounding the referee, trying to explain to him what had just happened in the box.

Downe watched the scene from the sidelines and knew that the chances of another goal in the final five minutes would knock Real Madrid into the abyss were almost nil, and he decided to give up on the idea of going out and giving it a go.

'Tell them we're counter-attacking in the last five minutes.' Don waved his hand weakly and said to Chris Rac next to him. Then he turned around and walked back to the dugout and sat down.

Eastwood was a little worried, and leaned in, and just as he was about to open his mouth, Don interrupted him: "I'm fine. Freddy, let me be quiet for a while, and I'm going to think about how to play overtime......"

He rubbed his temples, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.
