Chapter 37 Penalty Score! Defensive Formation!
"Penalty kick!"

"Maxwell is dejected and Thiago Silva is explaining to the referee!"

"From the slow-motion replay, there is no problem with the penalty decision, no controversy! Xia Han will definitely take the penalty!"

"If Zalgiris scores this penalty, he can tie the game! And score his second Champions League goal in his career!"

The fans at the Parc des Princes booed loudly, trying to put pressure on Xia Han.

On the sidelines, Blanco stopped chewing on his lollipop and sat in the coaching booth, staring with a complicated expression at the black-haired boy walking towards the penalty spot on the field.

"Xia!" Danbruskas looked at Xia Han excitedly, and the mineral water bottle in his hand was constantly squeezed.

Xia Han held the football and walked towards the penalty spot.

The fans at the Parc des Princes became nervous, secretly hoping that Trapp would be able to block Xia Han's penalty.

Trapp took a deep breath and swayed his body left and right, trying to influence Xia Han's mentality.

Xia Han stood in front of the penalty spot, his eyes gradually becoming determined.

Beep!
Accompanied by the whistle of referee Karasev!

Xia Han starts to run!
One step, two steps!
No hesitation!
boom!
The inside of his right foot hit the football hard!

Trapp kicked the grass with his feet and leaped to the right!

But the football flew rapidly to the left side of the goal!

Paris Saint-Germain's net was blown up for the second time!
2-2! ! !

"Beautiful! The ball goes in! Xia Han scores twice!"

"A powerful shot!"

"A high-quality penalty kick! Xia Han calmly shot to the left!"

“He has a big heart!”

"Xia Han scored two goals! He still performed well even when facing a strong defense!"

In China’s live broadcast room, the number of barrages soared rapidly.
-
[It’s the first time I saw Xia Han take a penalty kick! What a big-hearted player! A quick, accurate and ruthless penalty kick! ]
-
[Who else is doubting Xia Han's ability? Facing his sister-in-law's performance, it's simply too amazing! ]
-
[Look at Ibrahimovic's expression, he looks at Xia Han with a half-smile.]
-
[This style of play is so cool! The competition for him was fierce, and now the transfer fee will be even higher! ]
-
[Kaka + Torres? This is an exciting acceleration! This is a long-distance run that makes your blood boil! ]
-
[Suddenly I feel that the old BJ authentic chicken roll is not delicious...]

Xia Han celebrated wildly with his teammates who rushed over.

Trapp at the goal angrily hammered the post.

On the sidelines of the court, Dambruaskas kept walking back and forth in the command area, applauding the few Zalgiris in the stands!

Blanco's face looked a little gloomy. Looking at Xia Han celebrating wildly on the field, he sighed helplessly.

After the celebration, the fourth official on the sidelines raised a sign, indicating that the injury time in the first half was three minutes.

In the final minutes, Paris Saint-Germain attacked frantically!

In the last minute of injury time, Maxwell made a cross from the flank, Ibrahimovic jumped high but failed to head the ball.

Matuidi at the back post received the ball and shot!
The football hit the side net, and it looked like a goal, causing cheers from the stands!

Beep!
Under De Bruyne's anxious gaze, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game!

"Zalgiris' players fought tenaciously until the very end! They drew 2-2 with Paris Saint-Germain and returned to the locker room with a tie."

"Let's take a short break and then go to commercial break!"

"The well-known sports brand reminds you: take protective measures and don't panic when shooting..." Zalgiris locker room.

The players of Zalgiris, who were holding on to the score, relaxed a little.

After Dambruaskas and the coaching staff entered the locker room, the atmosphere seemed a little quiet.

Everyone can see that the score was tied thanks to Xia Han's individual ability!

"Come on, guys!" Dambruaskas waved his hand, motioning the players to come over, "Don't look like we've lost! We did a great job in the first half! Keep it up!"

"They are very strong! But we are not weak either! The ball is round, and there is no shortage of miracles on this green field. We can definitely create miracles!"

"We fought so hard to get into the Champions League, are you willing to keep losing like this? Let's fight them!"

While encouraging the players verbally, Dambruaskas knew in his heart that the huge gap in strength could not be made up by verbal encouragement.

Dambruauskas' tactical arrangement for the second half was simple: the defense line retreated, the midfield retreated, and the attacking midfielder Mokums was replaced with Janusauskas, who had stronger defensive capabilities.

The tactics of the counterattack are simpler, which is to give the ball to Xia Han. Dambruaskas knows that if he wants to win the game today, he can only rely on Xia Han's personal ability.

"Xia! Enjoy the game in the second half! Play at your best! Let them see your strength!" Danbruskas patted Xia Han on the shoulder and said.

Xia Han took a deep breath and said seriously: "I understand! Boss! I will seize the opportunity! Even if it's only once!"

Paris Saint-Germain dressing room.

Blanco looked at the players with fierce looks in their eyes.

He moved the small flags on the tactical board, surrounded a green flag, and said, "In the second half, I need you to limit Xia!"

"They will give up the high pressure in the frontcourt in the second half! Only Xia will be left in the frontcourt. What I need is to restrict him to death!"

"We need to attack faster! Don't give Zalgris a chance to react!"

"There's nothing else to say. Our strength can crush the opponent!"

The Paris Saint-Germain players gradually relaxed their mentality.

Just keep that damned Zalgiris-14 contained.

After all, Zalgiris' defense was very weak, and they allowed their massive bombardment in the first half!
If it weren't for the crossbar of the Parc des Princes protecting Zalgiris, they would have had a huge lead in the first half!

The fifteen-minute halftime ended quickly.

The referee team led the players from both sides out of the tunnel!

Players from both sides returned to the court!

The Parc des Princes was filled with shocking cheers!

"Good evening, audience friends! Welcome back!"

"The second half will start soon!"

"Zalgiris made the first substitution, Janusauskas replaced Mokums!"

"After the substitutions, Zalgiris' formation is now 5-4-1! It seems they are determined to defend to the end!"

“We look forward to the performance of both teams in the second half! I hope the next game will be even more exciting!”

Beep!
Accompanied by the referee's whistle!
The second half of the game officially begins!
