Chapter 219: Thunder on the Ground (April 4950)(1/2)
Chapter 219: Thunder in the Flat Earth (4950 monthly tickets to be updated)
When Sirocov subconsciously blocked the football from the baseline, goalkeeper Malafeev became anxious. He got up from the ground, slapped his hands and shouted: "Be careful of their attack!"
The current situation is completely different from what the coach told them during the halftime break. During the halftime break, Edvocart told Zenit's players that the Glasgow Rangers players would definitely defend in the second half and wait until 75 minutes before waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. So Zenit's players never thought about defending in the first half of the second half.
Unexpectedly, the opponent would have a series of threatening offensives as soon as he came up, and the players who beat Zenit were a little confused.
Now they don’t have time to continue to suppress the Wanderers in the offense. Just as goalkeeper Malafeev shouted, stabilize the defense first and be careful of the opponent’s attack...
"In the first half, Zenit's world was the one who had a sharp offensive and threatened the goal of Glasgow Rangers many times. So much so that goalkeeper Neil Alexander became the most photogenic figure. At the beginning of the second half, a big reversal occurred. Glasgow Rangers made a big counterattack and gained the advantage on the field, while Zenit's defenders and goalkeepers became the busiest people..."
The Wanderers fans in the stands gave a huge cheer to cheer the team up. They watched the first half of the game so aggrieved, and now it was finally their turn to be proud!
They cheered very loudly because they wanted to release all the aggrievances they suffered in the first half!
※ ※ ※
Goalkeeper Malafeyev asked everyone to pay attention to defense, but Chen Yingxiong felt that we should attack. So this time he did not return to the penalty area to defend, but stayed in front with Arshavin. Arshavin was at the front, and he was between Arshavin and his penalty area.
He gestured to Arshavin--and still wanted to attack.
Arshavin replied to him: I know.
The Wanderers valued this corner kick very much, and their two central defenders rushed to Zenit's goal and waited to head the ball.
They only have one full-back and one midfielder in the backcourt.
The corner kick was not hit by the Wanderers player, but Krizanaki cleared the siege. After the football fell out, it reached Chen Yingxiong's feet. Chen Yingxiong turned around and did not continue to control the ball, but raised his foot and passed the football to the diagonally front, which was where Arshavin was!
"This is Zenit's counterattack!" Yuri Petrov was excited.
Finally, I saw a threatening counterattack!
"Arshavin! Shake away Vitak! Goalkeeper Alexander attacked - shake away the angle! Shoot!"
Al Shavin did not completely shake the goalkeeper, but he shook the angle of the shot and directly shot the empty goal!
At this time, the cheers from Zenit's fans finally overwhelmed the fans of Glasgow Rangers.
"This is a great opportunity-" Petrov echoed his voice and was about to shout a goal.
Unexpectedly, football was kicked out on the goal line by Papak who was chasing back!
The cheers came to an abrupt end, followed by even greater cheers - this time from Glasgow Rangers fans.
But it was not over yet. The football kicked out by Papak just fell to the midfield and was stopped by Chen Yingxiong, who was rushing forward.
He saw that the goalkeeper had no time to return to defense, so he directly hung the door with his feet!
But I didn't master the footwork well, so the football flew directly to the stand behind the goal...
He held his head with both hands, very regretful.
"Chen Yingxiong's slinging shot! Very imaginative! But imagination cannot make up for his bad footwork..." the English commentator ridiculed.
They were very happy to see that Chen Yingxiong could not score the goal for a long time. This means that Alan Shearer's name is not ranked second. Although he is tied for first place, it is better than not being able to keep the tie for first place even, right?

I thought a final that was quite easy would definitely be easier than a semi-final, but I didn't expect it to be a hard battle. It took more than 60 minutes in the second half, and the two sides were still entangled and there was no winner.
The finals are indeed different from all other games.
Seeing that the deadlock was still not broken, Edvokat planned to make a substitution adjustment, he called Kerzakov from the bench and asked him to warm up.
Krzakov quickly put on his vest and ran out.
After missing the team for a month due to injury, he finally returned from injury before the game. However, his condition was unstable, so he was placed on the bench. He really wanted to play. Chen Yingxiong and his teammates worked so hard to get the team to the finals. How could he be absent?

The momentum of Glasgow Wanderers is so strong that the Scottish fans in the stands are like they are infuriated with chicken blood. Their singing is rising and falling, which has completely suppressed the Zenit fans.
Chen Yingxiong's ears are full of singing from these people now, and he can't hear the familiar voices he is completely unaware of.
This made him very upset.
In fact, the reason for the unhappiness is not the cheers of Glasgow Rangers fans, but the current game situation - the score is still 0:0, and Glasgow Rangers seem to have a greater chance of scoring than Zenit.
What a shame if Zenit was besieged for dozens of minutes before the game, but finally let the opponent score the goal and lose the game...
What should I do to crack down on the other party’s arrogance?
Score their goal!
The best way to shut up the opponent's fans is to score a goal. As long as you score, these annoying sounds will disappear. Just like in the first half.
Glasgow Rangers are now pressing more and there is a lot of room behind them, but this also makes Chen Yingxiong farther away from the goal, so he cannot use his heading skills because he will be offside.
Zenit can only use fast counterattacks to hit the opponent behind him. Al Shavin is very good at playing this way, but Chen Yingxiong... He is not slow, but he is not a good match for dribbling the ball. Who is this if he loses the ball with him? The chance to get the counterattack, which one can affect morale if he loses it?
The teammates were very clear about Chen Yingxiong's advantages and disadvantages, so they only gave the straight pass to players like Al Shawen. Chen Yingxiong could only chase in the middle in the counterattack, hoping to catch up in front of the goal and then receive the pass from his teammates.
Every time he chased after him so hard, he swears fiercely in his heart that he must practice the dribbling skills in the dungeon after he goes back!
I also want to be a hero like Guan Erye, who has passed five levels and killed six generals!
But now... he can only follow someone's butt honestly.

Starting from the seventy minutes, the Glasgow Rangers' offensive has been significantly strengthened. This is the timeline set by their head coach Smith, who will strengthen the offensive from the seventy minutes, and try to score the goal when the opponent's physical strength is declining.
They pressed more, and there was naturally more space behind them...
In the 73rd minute, Zenit got a counterattack meeting.
Tymoshchuk directly passed to Chen Yingxiong in front. Chen Yingxiong knew that he was not good at dribbling, so he did not choose to stop the ball. Instead, he pushed the ball to the top of the football with his head and inserted Domingos who was supporting him, and then Domingos divided the football to Arshavin on the side.
After the header, Chen Yingxiong turned around and ran forward. He didn't care how Arshavin had to deal with the ball. Anyway, it was always right to rush to the goal.
Arshavin received the ball and made a cross from the bottom!
The football hit Papak's leg and popped out of the bottom line.
Corner kick!
Papak's defense was very successful, and Zenit did not make a quick counterattack, and only gave the opponent a corner kick. This made the Glasgow Rangers fans in the stands happy, and they sang loudly in the stands, which seemed very noisy.
Hill ran to the corner kick, and Chen Yingxiong stood in front of the goal, and David Hill was beside him.
The 1.91-meter-tall centre-back always faced Chen Yingxiong in this game, but it was not him who stopped Chen Yingxiong from scoring the goal, but goalkeeper Alexander. Will, who is already 38 years old, is obviously not as physically as Chen Yingxiong. It is hard for him to ask him to engage in a physical confrontation with Chen Yingxiong.
But Chen Yingxiong likes to play hand-to-hand combat with him, and because of his responsibilities, he cannot escape, so he can only grit his teeth and grit his teeth.
When Chen Yingxiong stood in front of him again, this time he simply stretched out his hands and hugged Chen Yingxiong...
He was hugged by a big man from behind, which was not something Chen Yingxiong liked. He turned around and broke away from the other party's "embrace", but unexpectedly the other party hugged him quickly again.
"Damn!" Chen Yingxiong cursed, and it's not over.
Do you think this is the way I can stop me?
ridiculous!
He simply ignored Will's "quasi-foul" move and focused on staring at the football.
Just as Hill kicked the football out, he suddenly hit back!
Will was caught off guard and raised his head and was hit on his chin. He almost bit off his tongue...
Of course, my hands were loosened.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Yingxiong rushed out like a bear that was riding out of a cage.
Jump high against the football!
In front of him is another defender of the Wanderers, Carlos Cuerliare, who is 1.90 meters tall and has excellent heading skills.
But he turned his back to Chen Yingxiong at this time and did not know what happened behind him.
He was staring at the football attentively, and suddenly he felt like he was hit by a big truck or something. His body suddenly leaned forward and he didn't hit the football!
Chen Yingxiong knocked away Will and Cueriare one after another. All of this happened in the flash, very quickly. Everyone's attention was on the football, and no one noticed the scene that happened in front of the goal.
When he was tall and tall in the air, Yuri Petrov shouted: "No one can stop him!"
Zenit's fans also cheered enough to suppress the Wanderers fans.
"hero--!!"
Alexander saw Chen Yingxiong jumping high in front of him, and then shook his head to attack the goal.
At that moment, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and the pressure reached the maximum. He made a save like a conditioned reflex. When he felt that he had returned to normal, he had fallen to the ground, and what about football?
He turned his head into the goal.
The football was lying quietly in the goal behind him, wrapped in a net.
"The ball is in!!"
The cheer was like a thunder, and it exploded over the Manchester Municipal Stadium!
