Chapter 321 is the mainstay
Daniel Haas's injury must have ended up being something that many people didn't expect. Seeing Haas wiping tears and limping down the stadium with the help of the team doctor, Barcelona fans stopped booing because they knew that Hoffenheim was not deliberately delaying the game time - delaying his goalkeeper, and finding someone who could not guard the goal. Is there anyone who delayed the game time so much?
They did not shush, they laughed. Because they saw the dawn of Barcelona's victory. A well-trained goalkeeper, no matter how poor his ability, is a professional. If a midfielder comes to play the goalkeeper, he is not as good as a professional goalkeeper in any case.
Barcelona will definitely win if they encounter such a situation! Even if they only need a long shot, just hit the door frame... and enter!
And Hoffenheim fans were all worried.
Will Chu Zhongtian guard the goal? They have never heard of it. They only know that without Haas, Hoffenheim's goal is in danger!
The goalkeeper Enyema, who was standing at the entrance of the passage, was so upset at this time. If he was not sent off with a red card, even if he was injured at this time, at least Haas would have helped... How could Chu Zhongtian guard the goal now? No one knew that Chu Zhongtian would guard the goalkeeper, at least they had never seen Chu Zhongtian visit the goalkeeper in training.
Ke Nilia looked at Chu Zhongtian standing below and forgot to wave the flag in her hand. You know, she kept dancing the flag for 113 minutes... Hoffenheim fans looked at Chu Zhongtian standing in front of the goal silently. In their opinion, the Champions League trophy was leaving them, but was still at a fast speed.
"Hoffenheim is really unlucky this game..." Even the neutral commentator couldn't stand it anymore. "I was awarded a penalty kick, and the main goalkeeper Enyema was sent off with a red card, and Haas came up. Now he was injured again. Now he was missing one person, and the goalkeeper was still a midfielder... Barcelona's luck is so good!"
"It seems that there is no suspense about Barcelona becoming the treble champion for the second time." The Spanish commentator also said, with a little sour tone in his tone - he is a pro-Real Madrid... "This is really...this is really..." The German commentator was hit and could only say this. He had never thought that the game would develop like this. Originally, when Enyema was sent off with a red card and Hoffenheim was sentenced to death, he thought the game was over, but he didn't expect Chu Zhong to be in the 88th minute when he was sent off by a red card and Hoffenheim was sentenced to death.
Tian actually rescued the team from the edge of the cliff again, which made him feel happy all of a sudden. Who knew that he had lost the last goalkeeper now... Is there still a possibility of winning if he played like this? After a while, he sighed: "It seems that Hoffenheim can win the runner-up. After all, as a small team that has only participated in the Champions League twice, the meaning of the Champions League runner-up and the championship is the same..." He has already started to recite the eulogy for Hoffenheim in advance.
"Chu Zhongtian stood in front of the goal... This is really a final that cannot be described in words." He Ping murmured a little lost. He was very proud before the game, and of course he was also very proud in the game, but at this moment, even if he wanted to be very proud... The game developed to this situation, even if God came, he would have no choice.
In the entire Wembley Stadium, he knew that Chu Zhongtian was the only goalkeeper who was once his father. His mother never cared about football before, so naturally she couldn't tell the difference between goalkeeper, defender and forward.
However, Chu Zuosheng also frowned, his expression was not better than the people next to him. He knew that Chu Zhongtian had learned to guard the gate, but that was nearly twenty years ago. He still couldn't remember how he should guard the gate, and how much skill he had left for guarding the gate after he hadn't practiced for so many years? It's hard to say.
"It's over...it's over..." After seeing this scene, fans of Wimbledon Athletics kept muttering. Even Boss John, who had always been full of confidence in Chu Zhongtian, frowned and said nothing.
If there will always be someone in this world who maintains confidence in Chu Zhongtian, then this person must be... Emily!
Emily turned her head and looked at her companions around her and asked loudly, "What's wrong with you?"
"Oh..." Someone began to sigh.
"This..." Someone still wanted to speak but stopped.
"..." More people simply looked away and were unwilling to look at Emily.
"Hey, aren't you worried about Chu? What's there to worry about?"
Old Bente smiled bitterly: "Emily, when Chu is a midfielder, even a central defender and forward, we are not worried. But when he is a goalkeeper, we can't help but worry... The most special position on this court is the goalkeeper, which is completely incomparable to other positions..."
Emily shook her head: "I can't care about that much, Uncle Bente. He was from our "crazy gang" right?"
Old Bente was stunned by the question, then nodded: "Yes, he is a 'crazy gang' player."
"Is 'Mad Gang' just a synonym for a team?" Emily asked again.
This time, Lao Ben didn't say anything. As a qualified "crazy gang" fan, it is impossible not to know the true meaning of "crazy gang". Maybe others will simply regard this as the team's nickname, but it is impossible for fans of Kuang's own fans to do this. They know better than anyone else - Kuang's is a spirit.
"Our Mad Gang never gave up early, we have always been proud of this spirit. Now, the game has not ended, Chu has not given up because he is a member of the Mad Gang, so are we, why should we give up early?"
The people around her lowered their heads because she said it.
"The competition is not over yet, Hoffenheim has not lost yet." After she said that, she turned around and began to sing: "its_my_chu--!!"
※※Has walked to head coach Rangnick in tears. Rangnick actually knew what to do. He had called Gago to his side and assigned him a task.
He didn't say much about Chu Zhongtian's volunteering to do goalkeeper. Even if he said more, what's the use? He really couldn't find the goalkeeper. If Chu Zhongtian was willing to go, let him go. At least now, the whole team is the best physical condition, so he won't have any problems because he can't play the ball when saving the ball... With a dead horse as a living horse, he sent Gago to the court and replaced the injured Haas.
Next... He, the coach, can't help with anything, and can only be a spectator like an ordinary fan, and then wait until the penalty shootout is final, and then assign the order of the players who will punish the penalty kicks - but can he wait until that time?
※※※Simuniqi wanted Chu Zhongtian to do a simple warm-up. After all, Chu Zhongtian had never guarded the door and had to guard the door as soon as he went up, without any touch. What if the opponent was shot through with a cold shot?
However, Barcelona players protested, pointing at the wrist to remind the referee of the time. Time is not long, and the goalkeeper was injured and delayed for a few minutes. If he was warming up, he could get up and score a penalty kick.
Of course, Barcelona does not want to score a penalty kick, because they now see hope of winning. Hoffenheim replaced Chu Zhongtian, who was not a goalkeeper, to guard the goal. Will he guard the goal? As long as he can shoot here, there will be a great probability of scoring. Why do you have to drag the penalty kick with a lot of luck in the penalty kick?
They wish the game started early and ended in the remaining few minutes.
It only takes one ball, and you can win. For this amateur goalkeeper, scoring one ball is not a problem.
Simonic asked the referee for warm-up time, but the Barcelona players put pressure on the referee. In the end, the referee shook his head and refused Simonic's request. The game continued. Some fans booed him, who thought Barcelona was a bit unforgivable and had no demeanor at all... Chu Zhongtian did not care about Barcelona's strategy of not allowing him to warm up. He has been lowering his head since he shouted that in front of the goal. He was desperately recalling how the goalkeeper coach taught him when he was a goalkeeper.
What is the lower center of gravity, what is the principle of choosing positions, what is the horizontal high ball that hits the inside foot, and the horizontal low ball that hits the outside foot...and so on.
The goalkeeper has many key points, but now we need to find out the most urgently needed - Daniel Haas just played the football out of the baseline, so Barcelona will take a corner kick next.
When playing corner kicks, the best position for the goalkeeper is not to be far behind, nor can he be far ahead. Being backward is not conducive to defending the front post position. You should know that heading the front point in the corner kick off the attack tactics is a very important method. If it is too far forward, although it is too far ahead, it is not conducive to defensive punishment towards the far post or the offensive player rubbing the ball towards the far post with his head. Therefore, the best position for defending the corner kick is in the middle.
In addition to position, the goalkeeper's posture is also very particular. He cannot directly face the free throw player, only watch the ball but not the person, and cannot face the penalty area head-on, so that he cannot pay attention to the flight route of the football. He should face the free throw player sideways, so that he can have the best viewing view of every action in the penalty area while ensuring that he sees the free throw player.
Chu Zhongtian stood in front of the door according to these key points.
Someone's eyes lit up.
Enyema, who had been at the entrance of the passage, opened his eyes wide because Chu Zhongtian was a very standard goalkeeper standing for defending corner kicks. Seeing his center of gravity slightly sinking, he was very calm and calm. As the goalkeeper was also a goalkeeper, Enyema suddenly had confidence - maybe Chu really could do it!
Not everyone can see something from a simple position, and even if you see it, you won’t feel strange. Have you never seen a pig run? Everyone plays football and practices with goalkeepers a lot during training. There are many opportunities in the game. Don’t you know what position a goalkeeper should pose?
Xavi ran to the corner kick, and Barcelona's offensive players squeezed into the penalty area, and big men like Pique appeared in front of the goal.
Chu Zhongtian was still directing his teammates to let them keep a close eye on Pi Kui, but suddenly a thought flashed in his mind... He pointed at Gago who was interfering with the free throw in front and shouted: "Push up, Gago!Push up!"
As soon as Harvey finished speaking, he swept the football aside.
Tactical corner kick!
Barcelona is not very tall and heading, so it is not surprising to use tactical corner kicks to reorganize the offense. Hoffenheim lacks sufficient preparation. Barcelona takes this opportunity to reorganize the offense.
Xavi passed the ball to Alves who came to pick him up. Alves did not pass directly, but passed it to the middle. The one who received the ball was Iniesta. Iniesta and Boyan cooperated with one-on-one, and then suddenly made a straight pass!
"Pedro!!"
The Catalan narrator shouted.
Pedro received Iniesta's straight pass in the penalty area. The corner kick was directly stuffed to his feet and did not form a breakthrough. But it was enough for him to directly shoot!
Everyone's eyes followed the football, and no one noticed what Chu Zhongtian looked like. So when Pedro received the ball and shot, many people's hearts rose at this moment... "Shot - goal!!" The Catalan narrator elongated his voice and shouted, and he was ready to shout for a goal immediately.
But what he saw was not the scene of football flying into the goal from the dull amateur goalkeeper Chu Zhongtian, but the scene of Chu Zhongtian rising up and slapping the football out of the bottom line with a single palm in the air... The Catalan commentator's "goal!" was stuck in his throat. It was not good to say it, and it was even harder to swallow it. He was held back, but the other commentators all howled one by one.
"Chu saved! He saved this shot! Very beautiful!"
"Feeling his posture, it's very stretchy! Very standard!"
"Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!! Wonderful save! Wonderful save!!"
Not to mention that the commentator was shocked, even the fans and the players on the field were shocked.
Nyema at the entrance of the passage jumped up and raised his arms to cheer: "Beautiful!!"
Chu Zhongtian was a very, very standard flying sideways, without any stunning charm. As the goalkeeper, Enyema saw that either Chu Zhongtian was confused, or she must have a deep goalkeeper skills.
Of course, it's so deep. Chu Zhongtian studied with his goalkeeper coach for two years, and he has learned all the basic skills well.
Chu Zhongtian even took the opportunity to take the opportunity to remove the impact and keep himself unscathed. These are the actions of a goalkeeper, and he has already entered the role.
Pedro held his head with his hands and looked at Chu Zhongtian in surprise. He couldn't believe that his shot would be saved by an amateur goalkeeper who had always guarded the goal, and the pounced so wonderfully... He was heading for the dead corner. If he didn't save, he would fly in close proximity to the post. He was a player trained by Barcelona, so his footwork was indescribable.
Chu Zhongtian got up from the ground and was hugged by Simunic before he could stand firm. He patted his back hard and shouted: "How did you do it? So fucking beautiful!"
Then other teammates came up to thank Chu Zhongtian for his flying save just now.
Chu Zhongtian did not continue to make trouble with them, but pointed at the corner flag: "Defend the corner kick!"
Everyone didn't joke with him now, and they all returned to their respective positions, calling each other: "Please pay attention to him!" "Look at the inside line!" "Hold the position, don't let him jump easily!" "Press forward together after a while!"
The atmosphere changed unknowingly. When Haas came off the court, every Hoffenheim player's face was filled with sorrow. For the future, even if it was only a few minutes, they were full of confusion and pain. But now all these emotions were swept away, and Chu Zhongtian's wonderful save made them see hope and restore their fighting spirit.
"The game is not over yet, Hoffenheim has not lost yet!"
Not only Hoffenheim players, but also Hoffenheim fans and Wimbledon Athletics fans in the stands, they fully realized the meaning of this sentence at this time.
Koniriya shook the flag again and shouted to everyone: "Sing our singing so that they can hear our voices!! Hofen Haim"
"We come from the countryside!! We have nothing!! We are extremely strong!!"
Everyone started singing with her.
Another group of people were singing: "This is a song for those who stick to their faith! Singing for Chu who never retreats! There is no doubt that the competition will be more and more difficult... Luck no longer comes... But he never gave up... its_my_chu--!!"
Chu Zuosheng in the box saw his son making such a wonderful save, and slapped hard, shouting non-stop: "Beautiful! Son! Beautiful job!"
Ditma Hope felt like he had survived the disaster, and suddenly he felt his heart couldn't bear it anymore... The club chairman Hoffman, who was sitting behind him, also clenched his fists excitedly.
Everyone in Hoffenheim suddenly regained their vitality.
Chu Zhongtian ignited the fire of hope in everyone's hearts with one save. This is the ability of a captain and a spiritual leader!
※※※In the next corner kick, Xavi changed the free throw method and did not take a tactical corner kick, but directly kicked the football towards the goal.
Pi Kui was about to jump up and head the ball in the crowd, but when he saw a black look in front of him, a figure had appeared in the air in front of him, and he was raised high and stretched out his hands - it was Chu Zhongtian!
"It's Chu again! I took off the football directly, it's beautiful!"
"He jumped too fast, and he could hardly see when he came out to catch the ball... and it was so good to bounce! His judgment on the landing point of the football was also very accurate. He didn't even have any difficulty in picking up such an air ball. He couldn't tell that he was a goalkeeper who was on the shelves!" He Ping praised Chu Zhongtian's performance.
"As a midfielder, he is Hoffenheim's offense and defense core. He can pass the ball, shoot and score goals in person, and save the game repeatedly in defense. Now he can still make such a wonderful save to ensure the goal is not lost. How many surprises can he bring to us? Such a player can no longer be simply described as the core. He is Hoffenheim's mainstay!!"
