Chapter 369: Five Centimeters

******

"- Ai!" Hyde stood up from his seat almost at the same time as Huang Jianxiang and roared and shouted as the home fans erupted into a thunderous cheer from the home fans in the stands.

No one expected that Iroh would go back to steal and counter-attack at the last minute.

In their minds, Iroh is not a good defender.

If his offensive ability is top-notch, then his defensive ability can only be regarded as average.

Deco set his sights on Iroh after he staggered up from the ground, so instead of rushing straight to Iroh with the ball, he turned around and ran towards his own half, ready to solve the problem in Iro's forward path.

He was joined by Van Bommel and Puyol, who were relatively far behind.

Iroh saw that except for David Villa, who was like a salted fish, he suddenly accelerated forward, and the corners of his mouth showed a clear arc, it seemed that he was not alone!

That's right, at this time, Iroh's broken ball is very inspiring!

David Villa, who had given up running for nearly five minutes, seemed to have forgotten that he had cramped twice, as if he had completely recovered his body at this moment.

He was joined by Viana and Rufit, who came on in the second half.

Rijkaard, who was standing on the sidelines, watched this change on the field, and in just two seconds, his back was all soaked!

Deco turned around and ran in a diagonal straight line before he could see Iroh with the ball, so he didn't hesitate to stick it up, and was ready to foul Airo at the first time to keep him in place, he already knew from these games that Iro's awesome Cheng Dù, as long as he was given even the slightest chance, he would seize it.

Deco also knew that there was a clear difference between his body and Elo's, so he rushed forward with all his strength and stretched out his elbows, a habit he had developed when he played in Brazil.

What he didn't expect was that Iroh didn't take it forward, but turned his right ankle and shook the outside of his instep to pass the ball to David Villa.

The action was very stealthy, so Deco didn't notice it, and he still crashed into Iroh as he had thought.

After Iroh finished passing the ball, he didn't expect Deco to still plan to knock him to the ground, and it was too late to react, but he subconsciously put his arms on his chest.

And Iro's body at the moment showed the advantage it deserved, and Deco was bounced off as if he had been hit on a spring.

Deco lost his center of gravity and fell on the turf because he was hit by Iroh like this.

Iroh didn't have time to pay attention to Deco's situation, and his eyes had already caught Van Bommel turning towards David Villa, apparently preparing to foul, so he didn't hesitate to rush forward like a cheetah.

*****

Van Bommel rushed towards David Villa, who was on the ball, and it was clear from his hideous facial expression that he was not rushing for the ball this time.

David Villa sprinted more than 10 meters and felt a little jerk with his left foot, so he simply stopped suddenly, and Van Bommel was caught off guard and almost couldn't hold his foot and slipped on the turf.

After David Villa's emergency stop, he saw that Iroh had rushed past Deco's defense, picked up his right foot and sent the ball straight in front of Iro.

In the process of retreating, Oleg saw the momentum of the football, made a decision in a flash of lightning, and turned around, falling to the ground to clear the siege, but someone was faster than him.

"--Ai stabbed the soccer ball first!!" Hyde's voice was an octave higher, as if he had seen that with Iroh's efforts, the team overtook the score on the field and brought the game into overtime, "He's in front of him!" ”

After Iroh poked the ball away, he chased the ball in a few steps and took his left foot in the direction of the penalty area.

And there is no defender in front of him, except for Van Bommel who rushes up diagonally from the right and Puyol from the diagonal right, but he is not afraid of Van Bommel behind the diagonal right, because he is very confident in his speed!

So what Iroh really has to face is Puyol in front of him!

*****

Puyol hurriedly and panicked back with the rhythm of Iro's dribbling, and in the process of retreating, he also thought of keeping Iroh in place in a desperate way, but thinking of Iro's ghostly and dexterous steps, he chose the most conservative and very wise way of defending.

"Over him, over him!!"

The home fans at the scene were shouting with hoarse throats and forgetfulness.

Iello made a false impression of breaking through to the outside in the face of Puyol, who chose to defend conservatively, trying to trick Puyol into losing his center of gravity, and then using the flexibility of his right ankle to break the ball inside.

But what he didn't expect was that Puyol didn't take a feint, but stuck in the route of Eloneche.

He was about to go into the box and if he continued like this, he would have to make a change in a short period of time, and he didn't have any eyes on David Villa.

Therefore, he can only continue to use his personal ability to move forward.

Since it is impossible to use the change in the center of gravity of the body to deceive Puyol, then ...... Just force a breakthrough!

Iroh directly and brutally flicked the ball to the right with the outside of his right foot, and then his body was like a cheetah, slamming out, and then taking advantage of the time difference to pick up his right foot, making an illusion of hitting the door!

However, Puyol still didn't eat his feint, and stretched his right leg, blocking his path to shoot, so he could only put down his picked up right foot and make a sharp stop.

Puyol wasn't tall, barely 1.8 meters, so he stopped almost at the same time as Iroh made his emergency stop, but he still stuck his route to break through.

Seeing that Van Bommel was about to rush up at the right rear, he would not miss the opportunity to come again!

Iroh gritted his teeth and continued to use the outside of his right foot to flick the ball horizontally, picking up his right foot again, Puyol subconsciously stretched his right leg again, so as he thought in his heart, he used the shaking of his ankle to dunk the ball with the instep of his right foot, and the whole person moved forward, followed by his left foot to move the ball forward.

Straight line breakout!

Whoop -

The cheers in the stands were again an octave higher.

But at the moment, Iello has no extra attention to the outside of the field, he originally wanted to use his explosive characteristics to get stuck in front of Puyol after the breakthrough, and then force his way into the penalty area to hit the goal.

However, Puyol seemed to have seen his intentions a long time ago, and while completing the turn in the process of retreating, he also predicted his breakthrough intentions in advance, and used his strong body to carry him to death, just to prevent Iroh from walking comfortably on the inside line.

Indeed, Puyol had studied Ailo well before the game.

After much research by Rijkaard and Puyol, they already knew that Eyro's weakness was that his left foot was not as familiar as his right foot, so every time Elo wanted to control the ball with his right foot, he stuck his position in advance, so that he had to use his non-dominant left foot.

But Puyol knows it's not the time to be happy, and only when the referee blows the whistle will he be done.

The shoulders of the two were pressed together into the penalty area, and Iroh gritted his teeth and pushed the ball forward with his left foot, and his feet quickly touched the ground, and the terrifying explosiveness was once again manifested at this time, throwing Puyol nearly a position in two or three steps, and picking up his left foot ten yards from the goal.

*****

Valdés saw that after Ailo burst into the penalty area, he suddenly accelerated, leaving Puyol behind, so he chose to attack without hesitation, and his eyes were fixed on the football in front of Ailo in the process of moving.

At that moment, Iroh picked up his left foot from about ten yards from goal on the left side of the penalty area.

Valdés' legs were naturally open, and his eyes were on the football while also protecting his crotch and near corners.

At the same time, Valdés pounced on the ball at Elo's feet, and Puyol fell to the ground with both feet, blocking the ball between the ball and the goal.

Iroh didn't expect the two of them to be so decisive, and his left foot was not as flexible as his right foot, so he could only grit his teeth, quickly rub the inside of the instep of his left foot to the bottom of the football, and then jumped up in order to protect himself.

But his attention remained on the ball that was in the air.

Because Valdés pays great attention to the protection of the near corner when he pounces on the ball, and Puyol also consciously raises his right leg when he falls to the ground, so the direction of Ailo's ball can only be chosen in the far corner, but his left foot is not his usual foot, so the effect of this shot can only be left to God.

*****

Valdés, who made the save, and Puyol, who fell to the ground, could not do anything, so they could only turn their heads and look nervously at the football, hoping that the ball would go wide of the post.

Everyone's hearts hung up and came to their throats.

Can this goal be scored?

Fans who support both the home team and the away team have this idea.

In order to avoid Valdés, Iroh jumped up and had a leg tucking motion, and his eyes were fixed on the soccer ball running in the air.

Everyone's focus was on the football, as if time was passing very slowly in this moment.

But in reality, this is not the case.

The whole process was fleeting, and in less than a second, the results were out.

The ball hit the right-hand post of the goal and was kicked off the touchline by Van Bommel on the way back.

At the same time, referee Corina also blew the final whistle with two short and one long.

"It's over, it's over!" When the local Catalan commentator heard two short and one long whistles, he was stunned for a moment, and then pulled his throat sharply, and hoarsely pressed into the headphone microphone, "Victor and Calles were key defenders at the last moment to help Barcelona eliminate Valencia in the semi-finals and advance to the final!" ”

The final moments of this game were really thrilling, because Iroh's shot at the last moment, as long as it was slightly to the left, even five centimeters of this goal was scored, but the process was torturous, so when I heard the whistle, I was very excited.

“…… Referee...... Colina, blow the whole game, the end whistle ......" Hyde sat back on the commentary bench in despair, his expression very frustrated, "This goal has been scored even if it is five centimeters to the left, it's too ...... It's a pity. ”
