Chapter 420: Hat Trick!

Journalists in England believe the advantage is still on Lyon's side, and Lyon has the initiative even if they concede the goal.

They have a point in thinking so.

After conceding the goal, Lyon showed a very calm performance, they did not panic because of the loss, and there was no situation where they couldn't wait to fight back after conceding the goal. This was a reassurance to journalists in England – and if they did, it would only show that Löguin was stupid.

Lyon are playing away from home and they don't need to care too much about winning or losing, as long as they concede fewer goals they win. If there is only one 0:1 loss away from home, it is almost the same as a 1:0 victory.

Away goals are dispensable. There are surprises, and there is no need to be depressed.

And away goals can easily become a trap, with the dominant away team pressing on the attack, giving the opposition a chance to counter-attack.

In this regard, Löguin has done a great job.

He doesn't care about scoring away goals, letting the team continue to defend rather than attack after conceding a goal.

So Werder Bremen has never been able to get any more good chances.

With the exception of Glory's goal, the score has not changed. It was like this minute by minute towards the end of the first half.

Journalists in England are very optimistic about this.

In the first half, when they suddenly conceded a goal, Lyon was able to hold their ground and concede only one goal. Then after half-time adjustments, the situation will only get better.

※※※

This is Le Gon's wishful thinking.

But some people are born in this world, and they can't do other things, or they specialize in doing bad things for others.

Glory is such a person.

Towards the end of the first half, Werder Bremen launched an attack.

When they attacked, Lyon's backline was quick to retract and didn't tangle with Werder Bremen in midfield at all.

So when Rongguang received Miku's pass, there was already a complete defense line in front of him.

He came here following Werder Bremen's attack and couldn't even get close to the goal.

He is now about 40 metres away from the goal guarded by Lyon goalkeeper Coupe.

It's almost impossible to shoot at this distance.

"He's supposed to pass the ball......" said one of the commentators.

But in the eyes of everyone, Glory still picked up his right leg...... He's going to shoot from a distance!

"That's an exaggeration......"

Someone in the narrator uttered such an exclamation.

Although it may seem incredible to a third person, the Lyon players on the pitch do not dare to think so.

Defender Michael Essien saw Glory smashing his leg and rushed up, intending to use his body to stop Glory's shot.

"It's a feint!" The French commentators were dying, yelling into the microphone as if Essien on the pitch could hear it.

Sure enough, when Essien's whole body turned sideways, Glory's right foot slammed the football to the left and dodged Essien.

"Look!!"

The French narrator really wanted to grab his hair.

How could anyone shoot at this distance?

So that's obviously a feint...... Hey?

The French commentator, who had just thought so, saw Glory pick up his right leg again, and then ...... This time it's not Jiadong gone!

His straightened right foot hit the ball with a solid instep.

The sound of the bang can be heard clearly even in the noisy Weser Stadium!

Then everyone saw the glorious ball shoot out like a meteor towards the goal.

The distance of thirty-seven or eight meters is fleeting in the blink of an eye. When the French national team's backup goalkeeper Kupeten was in the air, the football had already hit the net behind him!

“2:0!! Werder Bremen took the lead towards the end of the first half! They broke Lyon's wishful thinking! ”

"Glory-glory-honor!! Nice long shot! Lyon's backline was nothing in the face of this powerful shot! ”

"A brace! Glory! In the scorers' charts, he has already equaled Ruud van Nistelrooy! Now his tally in the Champions League has increased to eighth! ”

There was a sensation in the commentary seat.

This time, the French narrator really started scratching his hair......

Damn it!

This goal can be scored too?!

※※※

When Rongguang scored the football, Löguin jumped straight off the field - seeing that the first half of the game was about to end! As a result, another goal was conceded!

And this ball is deadly!

Trailing by two goals in the first half, how to play in the second half?

Is it an all-out attack to get an equaliser?

Or is it a balance of attack and defence, hoping to score an away goal?

Or continue to defend and lose 0:2 is acceptable?

There are many roads in front of Leguin, and it is not easy for him to choose.

Essien, who was lying on the ground, turned his head to see how Glory broke through him and then shot, he withdrew his gaze from the football, and looked at Glory's back in a bit of a daze.

Werder Bremen's number nine, Honor!

The England press gate in the stands was speechless at this time.

They thought the first half was coming to an end and Lyon were in good shape.

The thought of glory and then slapped them in the face......

※※※

Because of the glorious goal, Lyon's wishful thinking was all shattered.

Naturally, the halftime that Löguin was ready for was not needed.

When the game started again in the second half, Werder Bremen, who were two goals ahead, played very relaxed, and Glory also performed well.

He alone stretched Lyon's backline.

In the end, in the 69th minute, Rongguang used his speed to forcibly wipe past Lyon's central defender Chris, and burst into the penalty area to shoot!

The ball flew to the far corner of the goal on the turf, and goalkeeper Kupe slid down a little slowly, and the ball slipped under his armpit into the goal!

And at this time, Chris, who was back on the defensive, had just shoveled down.

When he saw the ball fly into the goal, he covered his face with his hands – he couldn't bear to look at it again.

In the first leg away against Werder Bremen, three goals were poured into it!

And it's the same person who entered!

※※※

“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!” Marcel Leiff stretched out his voice, imitating the South American commentators, and shouted passionately.

The reason why he is so excited is simple, it is a hat-trick!

There are a number of players who have been able to score a hat-trick in the Champions League group stage, such as Wayne Rooney.

But there aren't many players who can score a hat-trick in the knockout stages, and Glory has done it!

Didn't those England journalists boast that Wayne Rooney had a hat-trick in the Champions League, but the glory didn't?

Do they see it now?

It's not that there is no glory, but it's not uncommon to wear a hat in a low-level competition like the group stage!

"Hat! Hat! Hat trick!! He raised his arms and shouted. Hat-trick! This is Rong...... Hat trick!! ”

"This ball...... Pregnant! Pretty!! Glory scored a hat-trick against Lyon! It was his third goal of the game!! Not many players can score a hat-trick in the knockout stages of the Champions League, and the last person to do so was Real Madrid's Ronaldo! He scored a hat-trick at Old Trafford to help Real Madrid knock out Manchester United! After Zhan Junguang cheered for Rongguang's hat trick, he began to introduce the audience to how amazing Rongguang's hat trick was.

"Oooh! Hat-trick! Wing scored a hat-trick in the quarter-final against Lyon! Can you imagine that he is a young man who is not yet twenty years old? Can you imagine this being his first Champions League season? Can you imagine this being the first Champions League knockout game he has ever played?! ”

The narrator uses a series of rhetorical questions to highlight the unbelievability in his tone.

The whole Weser Field seemed to be on fire.

Every Werder Bremen fan jumped up from their seats, waved their arms to cheer for Glory, they shouted the name of Glory, and finally formed a torrent over Weser Stadium, with Weser Stadium as the center, spreading out in all directions, like a volcano erupting under a calm sea, which was no longer a ripple, but a monstrous wave, a tsunami!

※※※

The glory of the goal also realised that he had completed his hat-trick, so he was stunned for a moment before remembering to celebrate.

But he's been surrounded by crazy teammates......

"Three goals ahead of Lyon in the first leg! Half of Werder Bremen has already reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League! If they can make it to the quarter-finals, it will equal their best result in the Champions League! They have reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League twice before, in 1988-1989 and 1993-1994! "Zhan Junguang continues to show his wealth of football knowledge.

The English reporters in the media gallery were completely speechless at this time.

Before, they always had a sense of superiority, thinking that with Rooney's hat-trick in front, you are not as glorious as Rooney, because you didn't score a hat-trick in the Champions League.

As a result, Glory now not only scored a hat trick, but also in the knockout round, and I don't know how many times more gold than Rooney's hat trick in the group stage!

If the English media say "this is Rooney's first Champions League match", then the German media can also counter with "this is Rong's first Champions League knockout game".

Anyway, it is to leave the English media with nothing to say.

They even felt that it was deliberately done by Glory, deliberately completing a hat-trick in this game, just to slap them in the face.

Of course they think too much......

※※※

"Flawless!" Schaff and Alofs high-fived each other on the sidelines.

They had thought about making sure they were killing the suspense of the match in the first round. But it's not easy.

Because Lyon is very difficult to deal with.

But no one expected that such a difficult team would raise their hands and surrender in the first round!

It's all because of the glory.

With glory, everything seems to be made easier.

Such a first round really exceeded their expectations.

Originally, they thought that it would be a good result to be able to win by two goals and not allow the opponent to score away goals.

But now it's a three-goal win and haven't conceded the visitors yet!
