Chapter 182 Volley - Volley!(1/2)
Mota received Mourinho's instructions and he did.
Chu Zhongtian soon found that there was a special defensive player around him. Inter Milan's defense was not as panicked as before, and they found order again. All this was just because of an additional defender. Chu Zhongtian knew that this must be Mourinho's decision.
But don't think that this will prevent us.
Chu Zhongtian thought in his heart.
My football, Hoffenheim’s new football, let you see it today!
※※※"Hoffenheim and Inter Milan changed their teams one after another. Hoffenheim became 433, and Chu unexpectedly became a center forward and appeared in the penalty area! Inter Milan quickly made adjustments. Mourinho used Mota to the center back to focus on Chu. We can see that he was almost inseparable from Chu..."
Mota was very serious about Mourinho's tactics. At the same time, since Chu Zhongtian is a forward, according to general understanding, the forward must be the first target with shooting and scoring...but... it's not right!
Mota knew that if he thought so, he would fall into Hoffenheim's trap. Hoffenheim's performance in this game was unexpected, so if he thought according to the rules, he would definitely lose. Generally, forwards would give priority to shooting. This idea will cause problems when it comes to Hoffenheim and Chu Zhongtian!
Besides, Chu Zhongtian is not an ordinary forward. He is a midfielder. He has never played a forward, so he must be playing a forward not for the goal, but for... By the way! Pass! Enter the penalty area, disrupt our defense, and then find an opportunity to pass the ball!
Passing! This is his real purpose in playing the forward!
Mota was glad for his discovery. Fortunately, he did not fall into the habitual thinking pattern, otherwise he would have been deceived by Chu Zhongtian... Just stick to the position and prevent him from turning around and preventing his pass.
The next game seemed to confirm Mota's idea. After receiving the ball again, Chu Zhongtian wanted to pass the football directly to his teammates behind him with the soles of his feet, but the football hit Mota's leg and bounced out.
This successful defense made Mota very happy, which proved that his analysis was correct. The opponent indeed planned to use the identity of the center to make a deadly pass.
Chu Zhongtian was not upset that the heel magic pass was blocked out. Instead, he paid attention to Mota's performance and found that he was very satisfied with this defense, which made him feel that the opportunity had come.
Mota must have thought he was just coming in to pass the ball, right?
ha!
Sana received a return pass from Salihovic, and he brought it up.
Then he saw Chu Zhongtian retreating, facing him, putting his hand on his chest, and making gestures to him.
He understood what that meant. During training, Chu Zhongtian had told his teammates about Yisu, which he represented by every gesture, so that he would not miss the opportunity because he did not understand those gestures during the game.
Chu Zhongtian's gesture was to ask him to pass the football to himself, and then continue running forward from the left and run into the penalty area.
There were three Hoffenheim players in the penalty area. If he went in, he would be the fourth one, which would add further burden to the opponent's defense. At the same time, as the only midfielder, they all rushed up, and the back would be empty. Inter Milan also knew that this was an opportunity for them to counterattack, so they would try their best to stop Sana and Chu Zhongtian, who seemed to be trying his best to cooperate with Sana.
All defensive forces will be attracted around Chu Zhongtian, and the defense in other places will inevitably be relatively empty. At this time, as long as the football is transferred out, they will be played again. Just as he often did before, it will be passed to Salihovic, Eduardo, and... at the feet of any player who may threaten Inter Milan's goal.
"Hey, don't think we're all idiots..." Mota muttered. Do you think we can't see such an obvious tactic?
Not only Mota, but other Inter Milan players also saw this. Do you think no one would know about this simple tactic?
As long as Sana passes the football, they will pounce, Motading is behind Chu Zhongtian, and then Cambiaso and Sneider will intercept the ball. Be sure to grab the football here and then launch a counterattack. Before the end of the first half, if the score can be tied to 1:1 and the total score becomes 4:2, the situation of the game will turn into their favor.
Sana indeed passed the football to Chu Zhongtian.
Almost at the same time, Sneider and Cambiaso rushed forward, while Mota pressed firmly behind Chu Zhongtian, not giving him the opportunity to turn around and face the goal.
But what surprised Mota was that Chu Zhongtian, who was in front of him, suddenly moved. He, Cambiaso and Sneider rushed towards the football together - he did not stand there and wait for the ball to catch it, but took the initiative to attack!
He received the ball first before Sneid and Cambiaso, but he did not stop the ball or pass it back, but rubbed the ball with his back to the goal!
Mota watched the football suddenly rise above Chu Zhongtian's body and then crossed his head. His gaze was attracted by the strange football for a moment. When a gust of wind blew around him, he found that Chu Zhongtian also turned around and ran over him at the same time!
"Pass! Beautiful - Ibisevic!"
The commentator didn't bother to praise the exquisiteness of the pass, so he shouted again, because Chu Zhongtian's pick-up pass sent the football to the most dangerous place - the small penalty area line, only six yards away from the goal, 5.5 meters! This is an area where you can shoot directly and have a very high goal rate!
Chu Zhongtian turned his back to Mota, and also made a cross-top pass, and the football was accurately sent to Ibisevic.
"Stay at him!" goalkeeper Julio Cesar shouted at Ibisevic.
Ibisevic and Samuel took off at the same time, and it seemed like they were going to head the ball.
When Mota saw Chu Zhongtian running past him, he didn't care who the football was passed to, so he followed him to chase him.
Except for him, everyone's attention was on Ibisevic who was preparing to head the ball.
Sana did run into the penalty area after passing the ball, but at this time even Cambiaso and Sneider had long forgotten him... Samuel jumped up hard, trying to interfere with Ibisekic's header. At the same time, Cesar was also preparing to block Ibisekic's attack.
Everyone has determined that a forward has absolutely no other choice than shooting at this time. Passing the ball? Don't joke, pass the ball at a distance of only six yards from the goal? Is that still what a forward does?
But Ibisekic, who was high above, did not shoot, but headed the ball and swung the ball in a direction parallel to the goal.
"He passed the ball!"
Julio Cesar's vision was the first to react. Before his body could move, his vision swept over with the football.
He saw Chu Zhongtian, the No. 8 player wearing the Hoffenheim captain's armband had already run to the goal, and the person following him was Mota.
Cesar's body reacted, and he rushed over to stop Chu Zhongtian's shot - this time it must have been a shot, Chu Zhongtian will never pass the ball again, and they will definitely not want to pass the football into the goal!
Ibisevic was disturbed by Samuel when he headed the ball, so the ball was slightly behind, and Chu Zhongtian ran past... Is this attack over?
Mota was secretly happy. Although he was slow, he picked up the opportunity to understand the surroundings. He soared into the air and turned around in the air to pull the football out with his feet.
But he was slowing down. When he lifted his feet up, he saw Chu Zhongtian in front of him suddenly stop and twisting, supporting his left foot on the ground, and lifting his right leg at the same time.
This is a volley!
"Chu! Volley--Pull!"
Chu Zhongtian stared at football. He could no longer see anything except football. Even the goal was no longer in his eyes.
The muscles of the left foot were tight and firmly stuck to the ground. The force started from the feet. If the footsteps were unstable, the shooting would not be strong. Although it was less than five meters away from the goal, Chu Zhongtian still decided to swing his thigh and kick it hard!
The body leaned back and exerted force on the waist and abdomen, driving the body to turn to the goal with the left leg as the axis, lifted the right leg and whipped the football in the air like a whip.
This is a very standard volley!
Chu Zhongtian felt that his right foot was hit by the football. The heavy blow made him feel very happy. This is the feeling!
With a bang, the football flew straight to the goal.
At the same time, Cesar had already flew into the air and rushed toward him from the goal. But in front of Chu Zhongtian's heavy cannon, he still seemed too slow!
Before he could pounce, the football roared into the goal and hit the ball hard.
"The ball is in!"
“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!!!”
"Chu Zhongtian!! The ball has entered!"
"Beautiful goal! Beautiful! So beautiful!"
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Chu! 2:0!"
"Come and graceful - Chu!!!"
At this time, except for cheering for "scoring the goal", the commentator couldn't say anything else.
Rhine Neka Stadium exploded in full swing, and in the 42nd minute of the first half, they had the upper hand in the promotion situation!
"Long live! Hoffenheim! Long live, Chu!"
"Long live!!"
※※※ Chu Zhongtian saw the football fly into the goal, so he turned around and ran out of the field. At this time, he wanted to cheer as much as he wanted, because this was really a beautiful goal, and it was still a key goal!
After scoring the goal, he ran to the corner flag area and stepped on the billboard. Without continuing to rush forward, he stood on the billboard and kept waving his right arm. With this rhythm, he shouted to the fans in the stands: "Hoffenheim! Hoffenheim! Hoffenheim!"
The Hoffenheim fans in the stands surged like a tide, shouting with him at the same rhythm: "Hoffenheim!! Hoffenheim!! Hoffenheim!! Hoffenheim!!"
His teammates were all below, looking up at Chu Zhongtian and shouting with him.
"There is only one voice in the entire Rhine-Neka Stadium--" The commentator suddenly shut up here. Through the TV, the audience could clearly hear the shouts of the fans on the scene, deafening.
"Hoffenheim! Hoffenheim!! Hoffenheim!!!"
The Hoffenheim fans in the stands were almost crying while crying.
Now in terms of the total score, they tied 3:3 with Inter Milan, but Hoffenheim has an away goal. If this score is maintained until the end, it means that they will eliminate the strong Inter Milan and advance to the quarterfinals!
Can they not be excited?
"Hoffenheim scored their second goal in this game! The total score was tied 3:3, but Hoffenheim scored away goals..."
"I don't think it's necessary to analyze the current situation of the two teams. Listen to the sounds in the stadium and look at the crowds surging in the stands, and you will know what this ball means to Hoffenheim!"
"This ball from Chu Zhongtian will attack Milan and hit him into hell, and they will ascend to heaven!"
On the domestic Internet... "Damn! Damn! Hoffenheim actually tied the total score!"
"Is Hoffenheim really going to eliminate Inter Milan? This world is so crazy..."
"Chu Zhongtian is mighty! I love you, Lin Danda!"
"I suddenly felt proud of being a Chinese..."
...There are many words like this. Just after Chu Zhongtian scored, countless new items were refreshed, and the domestic network was already in a turmoil.
※※※When Hoffenheim players and fans were celebrating this crucial goal together, Inter Milan players accepted this reality very depressedly - they changed from a leader in the promotion situation to a laggard, and it only took less than 45 minutes... "Damn it!" Mourinho rushed back to the coach's seat angrily, picked up a bottle of mineral water from the chair, and smashed it hard at the baffle behind him.
This crazy behavior scared the assistant beside him. He shrank his neck suddenly, fearing that he would be hit.
"Bastard!" After smashing the bottle, Mourinho felt that it was not relieved enough and cursed again.
"Oh my God, this goal is really painful for the Inter Milan players..." The commentator of Italian TV held his head with his hands, and his tone was unconcealed disappointment. "Murinho's football is too conservative! Such a conservative football cannot win, let alone win the Champions League!"
