Reverse.

Chapter 54

When Wang Lie was preparing to take the free kick, looking at his posture, even a fool could tell that he was going to shoot directly.

Chen Hai, from the "Ground Football Fans Club", said in the live broadcast room: "Everyone, watch carefully! Brother Wang is going to show us how to vent his anger with a free kick!"

Then the TV broadcast gave a close-up of Wang Lie's face.

Chen Hai added: "Look at the look in Brother Wang's eyes! Come on, everyone, type those four words on the public screen!"

At this time, the barrage was filled with "determined eyes".

Of course, they were not praising Wang Lie, but making a joke.

Because Wang Lie used to appear with this expression in close-up shots before taking a free kick, and then he would kick the free kick into the wall of people, or kick it directly over the crossbar.

So Chi Zhen’s crazy fans used this joke to mock Wang Lie for being pretentious even though he couldn’t score a goal.

Chen Hai's so-called "venting-style kicking" is also a meme, and has the same meaning as the "determined look in the eyes", both of which are meant to satirize Wang Lie for not scoring a free kick and pretending to be cool.

Although Wang Lie is already the player with the most free kick goals among active players, compared with the free kicks he has not scored, 69 free kick goals are really too few, and they are scattered throughout his long career.

So in recent years, everyone's impression of Wang Lie's free kicks is that they never go in.

Originally everyone used "determined eyes" to praise Wang Lie, but now the same word has become sarcastic.

After the referee stepped back and blew the whistle, Wang Lie in the live broadcast began to run.

Chen Hai muttered in a slick tone: "It's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming, it's coming... Eh?! Eh?! Eh——?!"

His glib words disappeared without a trace in the end, and were replaced by exclamations of disbelief.

The live broadcast room barrage at this moment is all:
"Fuck me!"

"Grass"

"Fuck me!"

"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!"

"..."

"!!!"

"???"

"Not a buddy"

"You can even get in here?! This must be fake!"

"Laughing to death"

"Fucking awesome!"

"Brother Wang is awesome!!"

"Brother Wang exploded!"

In the live broadcast, Chen Hai stared blankly at his computer screen, without saying a word or moving a muscle.

Only the flickering reflection from the computer screen on his glasses made it clear:
Oh, it's not a still picture...

※※※

Chen Hai was not the only one who was frightened.

And there was Joe Wesley in the commentary booth.

It’s just that because Chen Hai was broadcasting live, there was a camera facing him, which faithfully recorded his dumbfounded scene.

Joe Wesley hid behind the camera and no one could see how funny he looked.

He saw Wang Lie kick the ball with a faint smile on his face.

His perspective is lofty, and his mentality is also lofty.

He had a sense of superiority over all living beings - he felt that Wang Lie was doing useless work and was struggling to his death.

As a result... he had just finished saying "Wang was so angry that it was too difficult for him to shoot from this distance" when Wang Lie kicked the ball into the goal!
At that moment, he felt as if the football hit his face, causing his vision to go black.

At the same time he heard Connor Cowley screaming beside him:

“Ahhhhhh! The ball’s in! The ball’s in!! Wang!! Unbelievable!! The ball actually went in!! A free kick from nearly 40 meters away, straight into the goal!”

Wesley sat in his chair, forgot to commentate, and just stared at the field.

He suspected that everyone had seen it wrong. Wang Lie had just kicked the ball into the side net or the top net, so it looked like the net moved, but it was not actually a goal...

But the reactions of everyone around him told him:

Do not!
Wang Lie scored a goal!
In addition to the area where Sky TV was located, commentators from other broadcasting organizations in other locations were also in a frenzy, screaming and shouting at the top of their lungs.

Various languages that he could understand and not understand were intertwined, and finally merged into the huge clamor of the entire Lize Park Stadium...

※※※

In the first half, Tang Lin was in the stand behind the home team Tyne's goal. From where he was standing, the goal of the visiting team Scouse was almost the size of an ordinary bar-screen mobile phone.

So he actually couldn't see too many details.

He could only see Wang Lie starting to run after the whistle sounded, and then... then the little man in front of the opponent's goal shook, and then he heard cheers coming from over there.

Then… maybe less than a second later, the cheers suddenly reached him, and Mr. Berg, Dixie, and Boss Collins beside him all raised their arms and shouted:
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

“Ooooooooooooooooo!!!”

This time Tang Lin suddenly reacted - Wang Lie scored a goal!

He was about to join in the cheering when Mr. Berg next to him hugged him.

Mr. Berger's screams filled his ears and his saliva sprayed in his face:
"Ahhh! Don! You are such a lucky boy!!!"

Tang Lin was quite confused - what does this have to do with me?

But he was really happy, because after Wang Lie scored, he could no longer hear the shouts and curses from the Scouse fans above his head...

※※※

"Wang Lie is going to take the free kick. The distance is indeed a bit far, but... looking at Wang Lie's posture, he is going to shoot directly! In fact, for Wang Lie now, free kicks are a very good way to score. It's just that the position of this free kick is indeed a bit far... Run-up - ah? Wang Lie!!! Wang Lie -!!!!"

I wonder how many Chinese families were awakened by the screaming on their neighbor’s TV after 2 a.m.

Anyway, Luo Jin's sudden and unexpected roar, coupled with some blasting noises from the microphone, really made many Chinese fans in front of the TV lose all their sleepiness!

"Wang Lie scored a goal!! Wang Lie scored a goal!! A direct free kick! It's amazing! A goal from a long distance! Wang Lie! This goal is so explosive!"

It has to be said that both goals were scored by Chinese players. After Wang Lie scored, Luo Jin's voice was indeed louder and his emotions were more full and excited.

But there was nothing he could do, because Wang Lie had been with him longer than Chi Zhen.

Who told him to invest more joy, anger, sorrow and happiness in Wang Lie?
So he admitted that deep down in his heart he still had some preference for Wang Lie.

In other words, he actually prefers the spirit of not accepting his fate and not admitting defeat, and prefers to fight back when faced with the manipulation of fate, even if everyone thinks it is just an act beyond his ability.

And all those who possess this spirit and dare to fight back against fate will be favored and respected by him.

So he was really happy to see Wang Lie score such a beautiful goal under tremendous pressure.

Zhao Chuanfeng said nearby: "The free kick went straight through the goalkeeper's crotch... it's still very rare! I think this ball can be the best goal of this round of the Premier League!"

※※※

Everyone around him was cheering, but He Zhenyong was staring at the venue in amazement, and he didn't even know when he stood up from his seat.

He just stared with his eyes wide open and his mouth slightly open, completely forgetting the "rules for watching the game" he had set for himself before the game.

When he came to his senses, he was already like this.

When Chi Zhen scored the goal, he remained calm.

As a result, Wang Lie's free kick blew him up from his seat!
If a broadcast camera is pointed at me at this time, wouldn't it be...

However, facing such a wonderful goal, it would be even more abnormal if you didn't get up from your seat, right?
So... this is also human nature for me!
After He Zhenyong found this reason in his mind, he suddenly felt at ease.

Then he thought it would be abnormal not to applaud in the face of such a wonderful goal...

So he clapped again.

Now he looks no different from the people in the private room.

※※※“Ah——!! Ah——!! Daddy is awesome! Daddy is awesome!”

Wang Ziqi pounded the sofa hard, buried his head and screamed.

He completely forgot how he was doubting his father just now...

My sister clapped her hands and cheered: "Dad is awesome!!"

Tang Xingmei also couldn't help but scream.

Her husband is under pressure, so is she?
Her relatives and friends... How many people have asked her more than once: Why don't you persuade Wang Lie to return to China to play football? It's great to have more money, less work and close to home! And your family can be reunited and enjoy the happiness of family life. Why not?
How could she explain her husband's ambition or obsession to those people?
I was afraid that even if she said it seriously, the listeners would just think she was joking, using an unreasonable excuse to cover up the unspeakable truth.

There are very few people in this world who understand her husband.

She understood him, so she would endure other people's misunderstanding, questioning, even ridicule and insults with him.

Similarly, when her husband scores a goal, she will release her inner pressure and emotions just like her husband.

Scream, scream as much as you can.

Anyway, this is a country villa in Newcastle, which is sparsely populated, and the nearest neighbor is also on TV at this moment.

So she didn't have to worry about disturbing anyone with her hysterical outburst.

※※※

Compared with those excited people, Wang Lie, who scored the goal, seemed much calmer.

After seeing the football fly into the goal, he did not run to celebrate, but stood there, with his hands on his forehead, looking towards the goal of the Scouse people:
Where is the ball?
Oh, the ball is in the goal.

All of Wang Lie's emotions seemed to be released with this kick. He was very calm after scoring the goal, but his teammates were completely unable to calm down.

They ran towards Wang Lie from all directions and hugged him while he was still posing.

"Ahhh! What is this?! What kind of ball is this?!"

"King! My anger! My anger really works!"

"Oh, God!"

"Wang, you are so awesome!"

"Good job!"

McNeill high-fived and hugged his coaching colleagues on the sidelines, as happy as if they had already won the game...

※※※

Leonardo Lucero sat on the turf inside the goal with the ball in the net behind him.

He looked blankly at Wang Lie who was surrounded by Tyne players.

For a direct free kick from such a long distance, Wang Lie did not choose to go around the human wall, but hit it directly.

This is actually a duel between him and Wang Lie.

And he lost this direct dialogue.

Being defeated by Wang Lie in such a direct way - no matter what the final result of this game is, no matter whether the team can succeed in revenge. He has been defeated by Wang Lie again and cannot succeed in revenge...

Chi Zhen shifted his gaze away from his goalkeeper teammate Lucero, who was thinking about his life after being beaten, and also looked at Brother Wang who was celebrating.

In fact, he couldn't see Brother Wang clearly, because Brother Wang was surrounded by his teammates and couldn't see anything at all.

He still looked over there, remembering the look in Brother Wang's eyes when he ran back to his own half after scoring the goal.

He also recalled many past events about Brother Wang.

They were all classic scenes that once gave him goose bumps.

What happened to the free kick goal?
Brother Wang once scored twice with a free kick in a game!
What happened to the long shot goal?
Brother Wang also has a record of scoring a goal from a distance of 40 meters...

Really, when he saw Brother Wang kick the ball into Lucero's goal, he was a little dazed and thought that the 31-year-old or 32-year-old Brother Wang had returned.

No matter what the opportunity, no matter how unreasonable the ball, he can score.

Just like this free kick.

Chi Zhen, who was still in a trance, was suddenly awakened by the uniform shouts from the Lize Park Stadium. After he heard clearly what the Tyne fans were shouting, he looked up and around, as if he was visiting this stadium for the first time.

※※※

"China Wang! China Wang!"

I don't know which stand the shout came from first, but now the entire Lize Park Stadium is shouting this title.

Amid their shouts, the Tyne players who had surrounded Wang Lie dispersed and pushed Wang Lie to the outside, allowing him to receive the fans' cheers and tributes alone.

Wang Lie waved his fist at the Tyne fans in the stands.

The shouts of “China Wang” became even louder.

Amid their shouts, Wang Lie smiled happily.

It's not just because the goal was beautiful, nor is it just because it helped Tyne reduce the score difference from two goals to one goal.

Also because the glittering golden numbers reappeared before his eyes:
36
Yes, he is young again.

It took only two goals since the first time he was young, and he was young again.

Although just looking at the numbers, it is exactly the same as when he first became young.

But Wang Lie, who has figured out the mechanism, knows very well that this is definitely not the 36-year-old who is almost 37 years old last time, but the 36-year-old who just celebrated his 36th birthday!
And the first time he was young it took one goal, and the second time he was young it took two goals. Does that mean that as long as he scores three more goals he can be young for the third time?

Then he scored four more goals, the fourth time when he was young. He scored five goals, the fifth time when he was young… and so on. It seemed that he didn’t need to score many goals until he was thirty.

Wait…I won’t stay young until I’m eighteen, right?

If I really reach that age, will my body be in an injured state or not?

Wang Lie realized that he was thinking too far and immediately came out of his fantasy.

No matter what the future holds, at least he has to win today's game.

And even though that goal just now was so cool and beautiful, it was just a goal in the final analysis.

Tyne still trailed the Scots with a score of 1:2.

His goal could not completely reverse the situation and change the current situation where Tyne was inferior to the Scouse team.

The time for celebration is over. We need to keep working hard... no, we need to work harder than before we scored the goal!
Because the Scouse people who lost the ball will not give up so easily.

They will definitely counterattack more fiercely, so both you and your team must be prepared.

Thinking of this, Wang Lie had already put away the smile on his face.

While running back, he called out to his teammates who were still following him:

"Cheer up! Stay focused! The Scouse's next counterattack will be crazy. If we can't hold on, this goal will be in vain!"

Unlike before, after he said this, his teammates' responses were obviously much more positive.

"Okay, King!"

"No problem, Captain!"

"Don't worry, we won't let them score easily again!"

"Pay attention! Don't let Wang's ball go in for nothing!"

Listening to everyone's high-spirited voices, Wang Lie smiled slightly.

As expected, I still have to do it.

Saying a hundred words is not as good as scoring a goal.
