Chapter 279: Lost (36/134)
When David De Gea saved Ferraño's shot, the Atletico Madrid fans erupted in loud cheers, with many jumping up from their seats and raising their arms and chanting.
I'm glad they have such a brave goalkeeper.
But then, their cheers all came to an abrupt end.
The fans of Atletico Madrid are like ducks that have been choked by the neck, and they can no longer make a sound.
Klose appeared where he was supposed to be.
Made a move that a shooter should do.
However, the football flew into the goal without any suspense.
Lazio pulled a goal back!
"Beautiful! Klose! He pulled a goal back for Lazio! Now Lazio is only one goal behind! For Lazio, who are back to normal, the difference in this one goal is almost negligible! ”
"A ball! Lazio pulled back! Twenty minutes to go, there's still a chance! Lazio have a chance to turn defeat into victory! ”
Suddenly, the commentators were all optimistic that Lazio was coming.
A group of wallheads......
※※※
Instead of celebrating, he sprinted into the back of the net, picked up the ball before De Gea, turned and ran into the centre circle.
Lazio only pulled a goal back, and it didn't work to win the game.
There's not much time left, and you need to hurry, so there's no need to celebrate or something.
When Klose did this, Flores on the sidelines was holding his head in his hands, looking annoyed.
This kind of attack, which is completely dependent on the inspiration of the players, is really difficult to defend.
After David Silva had pulled away the defensive attention of the Atletico Madrid players, Hernanez's forward cut was lacking in pressing, and as a result, he calmly completed a pick-and-roll pass.
This ball came to not be supposed to happen.
Yes, as long as the players are a little more serious, it really shouldn't be there.
After the chagrin. He rushed to the sidelines and yelled at the players inside.
"Boost your concentration! Don't lose the strength of your defense! ”
Whether it really worked, he wasn't sure right now.
But it's always to be done.
※※※
Klose's goal revived the Lazio fans in the stands in an instant.
They danced in the stands and cheered over the boos of the Atletico Madrid fans.
Even though the game has restarted, their cheers have not stopped.
That's how they're cheering Lazio.
In the following games, Atletico Madrid continued to defend to the death, but they were more tightly guarded, and every Lazio player had an Atletico Madrid player next to him.
As soon as they get the ball, these Atletico Madrid players will pounce on them and interfere with Lazio's players with the ball.
Atletico Madrid has no way to go back and they will definitely defend with all their might.
Because it only takes one more goal to concede. The morale of the team is gone.
At this time, Chang Sheng can finally start to exert his strength.
He replaced veteran Roki with Gotze and Bresciano with Luka Modric.
These two substitutions can greatly increase the team's attacking power.
Sure enough, after Modric and Gotze came up. Atletico Madrid's defensive pressure skyrocketed.
"Lazio's attack is starting to pick up! Remind the Atletico Madrid fans who cheered for their two-goal lead - it wasn't the strongest Lazio who were ahead of you! Not even now! So don't get too excited! ”
The Italian narrator shouted excitedly.
Lazio's attack has increased its chances of victory.
※※※
David Silva, Gotze and Luka Modric form a triangle up front, with Klose looking for opportunities up front. Lazio's attack is more three-dimensional and diverse.
Of these four people, no matter who they are, they are capable of solving the battle themselves.
So when they work together, it makes it difficult for the defender to guard against.
The game was 80 minutes into the game. Lazio's successive passes finally created a chance for them.
Luka Modric went straight to Klose, but was blocked by the Atletico Madrid defender.
Football is rolling back.
Luka Modric rushed up and made the assumption of a long-range shot, but the ball was distributed to the feet of Götze next to him.
Gotze made the same gesture as he shot but didn't, when his foot came down. It was the football that was written and passed out.
Klose in the middle did not receive the ball, although he was in the route of the pass.
Everyone thought he was going to catch the ball and shoot.
But he ignored the three Atletico Madrid players who surrounded him.
Klose spread his legs apart. Run forward.
The soccer ball slipped between his legs!
So where did the football end up?
David Silva got to the position, the football arrived, and the rest of the job was much easier.
Silva shoots directly with his right foot!
The ball arced past goalkeeper David De Gea and flew into the net from the far end!
"Continuous passing...... Pretty! David Silva shoots - !! This ball is here! Lazio equalised!! ”
"Great show! Lazio scored twice in the second half. Compared to the first half, it was like a different team! ”
"It's the end of Atletico Madrid! They led by two goals at one point in the first half and dominated the game...... But now they are being chased back by Lazio! ”
Accompanied by the shouts of the narrator. Atletico Madrid's manager Flores smashed a punch into the roof of the dugout with an angry punch from the sidelines.
Damn it!
Damn it!
He just wanted to curse now.
This time it wasn't because Atletico Madrid's players didn't press in time.
This time it's too timely!
Lazio took advantage of the Atletico Madrid players' characteristics of what they do, and the opponent reacted immediately, using fake shots, real passes, fake catches and leaks, etc., to tear apart Atletico Madrid's defense......
There are no holes in the backline, and there are some gaps due to the rapid movement of the Atletico Madrid defenders.
This opportunity was then taken advantage of by Lazio.
It's so cunning!
※※※
David Silva did not celebrate after the goal. He was about to rush towards the goal, but when Klose saw that he had already run in and picked up the football, he turned and ran back.
With ten minutes to go, Lazio were able to reverse a match!
The Lazio fans in the stands let out an almost crazy shout at this time!
They really didn't expect Lazio to chase two goals in a row!
And looking at their stance, it may take 90 minutes to achieve a reversal!
"Come on, Lazio!!"
Lazio fans in the stands chanted.
Lazio fans were elated in the stands, while Atletico Madrid's fans were stunned.
They don't understand, named the first half of the score lead, the field dominant.
How did it suddenly get flattened?
Just like them, the players of Atletico Madrid are in a daze.
They also can't accept a two-goal lead to an equaliser.
After conceding a goal. And they paid a lot of attention.
With little time left, they saw that they had succeeded.
In the end, it fell short......
Although they are now a draw and have not lost the game.
But they already have this feeling in their hearts.
That's how likely they are to lose this game.
Because their morale has hit rock bottom.
Each of them had that game two seasons ago in their minds. They were conceded nine goals by Lazio at Lazio's home stadium!
When morale was high before, even if this memory was remembered by them, it was the driving force for their revenge.
But now, thinking about this game makes them shudder.
Because they'll understand the game from a different angle. It was no longer their motivation for revenge, but a nightmare for them.
They will reflect that in front of them is the devil who once scored nine goals for them!
They are ruthless, they are vicious.
The humiliation of being humiliated at that time came back to their minds, but it could not inspire their ambition for revenge.
In the last ten minutes, Atletico Madrid's morale was like a crumbling wall. Gradually, it collapsed.
In the 88th minute, Lazio took advantage of a low-level mistake in the Atletico Madrid backline and scored a goal to overtake the score.
So far. The players of Atletico Madrid completely surrendered!
※※※
“3:2! Lazio did it! They pulled off a terrific comeback! After trailing by two goals in the first half, they fought back in the second half and turned the game around! ”
"Poor Atletico Madrid...... They still lost the game with a two-goal lead...... Despite their tenacity, they were still Lazio's underdogs...... Perhaps this is their fate, and fate is irresistible! ”
In the shouts of the narrator. The stands resounded with cheers from Lazio fans.
This time it's bigger than the previous two.
Because they know that Lazio has won!
Compared to the excited Lazio fans. The Atletico Madrid fans were all silent, some even holding their heads in their hands in pain.
Their silence this time means that they also know what they will face next.
When Lazio take the lead, can they turn the tables on their opponents? That's a fantasy!
Something that has never happened before!
Atletico Madrid ...... Lost.
※※※
Flores stood on the sidelines, his expression blank.
His tone was very good, just in time for the whole Lazio team to be out of shape.
He came close to beating Lazio.
He knew that his team was actually very tenacious, even if it was defeated.
But only the victors will be remembered.
A few years later, one would not say that Lazio, the 2010 UEFA Super Cup winners, were very tenacious in the game.
They will only say that the winner of the UEFA Super Cup that year was Lazio, who beat Atletico Madrid 3-2 in the match.
That's all.
The winner is king, and the loser is the loser.
Flores sighed, then walked back to the dugout and sat down.
The game is over.
