Looking at the excited Italians, the Portuguese players were a little disillusioned. After all, it was a little difficult to accept who came, and after nearly 90 minutes of hard fighting, victory was in sight. Suddenly halfway to kill a Cheng bite gold, was kicked to the hand of the victory, the most infuriating thing is that this is the first time this person touched the ball on the field, and the frustration is self-evident. Inzaghi is the hero who turned the tide to save Italy, and this is sure to be another classic moment of his career. He also proved once again for his style of play that a striker is a good striker as long as he can score goals, and what is good is beautiful, and what is practical is the best.

Trapattoni, the excited coach on the sidelines, kicked the mineral water bottle at his feet, and then raised his hands and raised his arms in celebration, as if a striker had scored a goal. The gray-haired old man has added another moment of heaven and a moment of hell to his long football career. And that's probably the biggest charm of football, you never know if it's going to make you cry or laugh the next.

After a brief period of euphoria, Trapattoni quickly regained his composure. He soon came to the sidelines and called out to his disciples, making tactical arrangements for the rest of the time. This time, the tactical arrangement made people see the courage and courage of the old coach as a famous coach, and he gave instructions to Italy to continue to press forward and attack, and he wanted to solve Portugal's situation before extra time. Oliveira, on the other hand, was on the sidelines, anxiously reminding his players that this was not the time to be disappointed and that the game was going on.

Although there is a reminder from Oliveira. But once the game restarted, you could clearly feel that the spirit of the Portuguese players was not quite back in the game. Take advantage of this time. Italy, with its soaring morale, stepped up its forward pressure. In order to eat Portugal in one bite. Mentally distracted, Portugal looked shaky in defence under intense pressure from Italy. Oliveira paced back and forth quickly on the sidelines, tearing his throat open and shouting to his disciples, "Get your attention, guys. Focus. ”

Even the Portuguese commentator said with concern at this time: "Our players seem to be still thinking about the goal just conceded. We have to get our focus back on the game right away, it's not over yet. "The Portuguese fans, who can see that the situation is bad, are encouraging their Portuguese team in their own way, and they are singing loudly in the hope that they can give the Portuguese players strength in the hope of giving strength to the Portuguese players.

Old Lei was running anxiously at this time. He tried to defend and wanted to motivate his teammates to cheer up, but the game didn't give him that time. It was fast in stoppage time, with three minutes of stoppage time. In the second minute of stoppage time, Portugal paid the price for their lack of focus. Bento made a mistake when he passed back to the backline, and the force was significantly smaller. Inzaghi, who was aggressively pressing in front, caught Bento's mistake. Grab a knife before Costa gets the ball and dodge Costa sideways. Then go forward and enter the restricted area. At such a moment, such a mistake is fatal.

The chasing Costa's body firmly leaned against Inzaghi's body and blocked the angle of his inside cut or pass and shot. In the middle of running. Costa also tried to reach out and kick the football at Inzaghi's feet to solve the big crisis. But suddenly Inzaghi's feet hung on Costa's outstretched feet, and then accompanied by Inzaghi's screams. He fell to the ground. Seeing this, Costa's heart chuckled, and of course he knew what it meant. He bowed in anger. said something to Inzaghi, and wanted to reach out and forcibly pull Inzaghi up. The Italian players were, of course, to the side. Vieri pushed Costa away, and the players on both sides suddenly got into a verbal altercation and shoving.

At this time, a whistle sounded, and Lao Lei turned his head to look, and his heart suddenly became half cold. Referee Moreno's hand pointed to the penalty spot, and at this point the penalty was almost a death sentence for Portugal. While the Italian players happily pulled up Inzaghi, the Portuguese players excitedly surrounded referee Moreno and complained. Although it was known that it was basically impossible for the referee to change the verdict, everyone had to look forward to it with a hint of luck at this time. Costa was naturally the one with the most fierce complaints, and the penalty had almost made him the sinner of the whole of Portugal.

Oliveira, who was on the sidelines, also excitedly rushed to the fourth official to appeal, but to no avail. In addition to this, Costa also received a yellow card. The panicked and desperate Portuguese fans could only express their dissatisfaction with their loudest boos at this time. Kayla also stretched out gestures and expletives to Moreno without a ladylike gesture. The Italian fans felt that they were only a fraction away from victory, and the happiness came too suddenly, so they couldn't accept it for a while.

This one of Inzaghi's tricks just now is the ability to create penalties. Sometimes even looking at the high-definition camera can't tell whether Inzaghi is a fake fall, and whether it is a fake fall has become a secret that Inzaghi himself knows. It is conceivable that if the Italian players score this penalty, the problem of the referee who has attracted much attention in this World Cup must add fuel to the fire and set off a boom again.

The penalty taker was determined to be the best Bianconeri Prince Piero of the game. Inzaghi, who created the penalty, was a little unhappy when he saw that it was Piero who was going to take the penalty, but he didn't say anything for the sake of the team at this time. Speaking of Inzaghi and Piero, the two would have been Juventus' feared strikers. But at Juventus, a prince who is loved by thousands of people, and a supporting role who is always a foil, such a treatment is unacceptable to the proud Inzaghi. After a honeymoon period between the two people, a crack finally appeared.

And in a crucial title game in the last Serie A season, Inzaghi, who has always been hard-working, unexpectedly grabbed a penalty. Then Inzaghi missed a penalty and Juventus lost the league title. After the game, it was reported that Piero and Inzaghi had a heated verbal altercation. After that, Inzaghi moved to AC Milan. Left the Bianconeri. So there is a grudge between these two people. If it weren't for the fact that this is such an important situation, Inzaghi would not have asked Piero to say anything.

Lao Lei looked at Piero who was holding the ball, and didn't want to wait for death like this, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. Old Ray walked straight to Piero, got behind Pieru, and whispered to him: "Think of the single knife in 2000, think of the single knife in this game, Alessandro." Think about it, take this penalty and you'll win. But I bet you'll lose. What do you think, Alessandro? After that, Ray was ejected from the box by Moreno, allowing Piero to start the penalty shoot.

"What does Rema seem to say to this Piero?" The Portuguese commentator, who was anxiously waiting for the penalty result, saw Lao Lei's behavior and said suspiciously.

Piero carefully placed the football, put it away, and it took a while for the ball to be arranged. After standing in front of the penalty spot, Piero kept replaying what Lao Lei had just said in his head. If you score, you win, will I score? I'm going to get it. Those two didn't go into the ......... Lao Lei's words worked, and Piero's heart was very unsettled, making him suffer from gains and losses.

In fact, the young Piero has always been considered the successor to the melancholy prince Robert Baggio, but his performance in the national team has not been comparable to his performance at the club. Among them, his psychological factor is a big reason, and the nervous psychology limits his performance in the national team competition. The two single-handed defeats against France at the 2000 European Championships are the most direct evidence to support this, and they have become his lifelong regret.

This time I was under pressure again, and everything was exactly the same as it was two years ago. The referee blew the whistle, ran and shot. Baia didn't judge the direction of his shot, but Piero's shot went over the crossbar and into the sky like the penalty Baggio missed at the World Cup in the United States. He was too nervous, and his force was too strong.

When Piero saw his shot go over the crossbar, he fell to his knees with his head on the ground and his hands over his face, as if he couldn't believe what was in front of him. In Baia's excited jumping celebrations, in the celebrations of the Portuguese players for the rest of their lives, in the helplessness of the Italian players in disbelief, Piero's gloomy back seemed to dye everything around him into a powerless, lost black and white.

In the celebratory crowd, Lao Lei looked at the figure of the blue No. 7 kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but wonder what would all this have been if it hadn't been for his own words. In the face of such a lonely Piero, Lao Lei's heart also rose a trace of unbearability, but once again, Lao Lei felt that he would definitely say the same thing again. Because there is only one winner in a football game, you live and I die, it's so cruel, and Lao Lei wants to win, it's as simple as that.

"Oh oh oh, didn't go in! Didn't enter!! Portugal, we are alive! Alive!! Can anyone tell me what exactly Reima said to Piero? Is it a spell? "Well, the Portuguese narrator is starting to be incoherent. In fact, everyone is now curious about what Lao Lei said, especially the eyes of those reporters as if they had seen a gold mine.

Piero knelt in front of the penalty spot and didn't move, but everyone could feel his loneliness. At this time, Italian fans couldn't help but think of the 94 World Cup, the No. 10 blue figure that will forever be recorded in the annals of football history, and the figure that reflects all the sadness, loneliness, and frustration.

The Italian players, after coming to their senses, came to the penalty spot and pulled up Piero.

Piero covered his face with his hands and did not look up for a long time.

The tragedy of the Italian prince was repeated eight years later at the World Cup. (To be continued......)
