Perfect Center

Chapter 38 Desperate Situation
Paris Saint-Germain has the ball.

Ibrahimovic was full of energy and made a crazy forward run after passing the ball back.

Paris Saint-Germain launched an offensive like a tide!
After several passes, the football came to Motta.

Facing Lukesha's pressing, Motta easily shook off the defense and sent a through ball with just the right amount of time!

The football stuck to the grass and rushed to the feet of Matuidi who was making a forward run!
Matuidi took the ball and sprinted forward!

There were cheers from the fans in the stands!

Matuidi advanced quickly, facing a double-team, and easily lofted the ball into the penalty area!

Inside the restricted area, the crowd was dense and heads were moving!

Ibrahimovic stared at the ball in the air, and used his strong body to push away Janusauskas who was trying to interfere with him!
Jump up suddenly!

A fierce header!
The football hit Vitkauskas' chest. Cavani saw the opportunity and wanted to make a follow-up shot, but the ball was cleared by Sverrjuga on the side!
"The second half just started! Paris Saint-Germain created a very threatening opportunity!"

"Ibrahimovic's violent header was blocked by the goalkeeper because the angle was too straight! Zalgiris's midfielders and backcourt players all returned to the front of the goal, like a bus blocking the door!"

"Cavani wants a follow-up shot! There's no chance at all!"

Cavani and Ibrahimovic gave thumbs up to their teammates!
-
[Just defend against Zalgiris! You can defend him for a while, but you can’t defend him for the entire second half! ]
-
[Three secrets to breaking the bus: cross! Long shot! Set-piece! Paris Saint-Germain needs to work on this! ]
-
[It feels like the goal will be lost sooner or later! Paris Saint-Germain has such strong firepower! ]
-
[No way, the gap in strength is too big! ]

The game continues.

Zalgiris was pressed by Paris Saint-Germain and couldn't get through the half court, and his ball possession rate once reached over 70 percent.

Xia Han was alone in the frontcourt, isolated and helpless, and could only actively return to defense to try to grab a chance.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Motta's long pass instantly penetrated Zalgiris' central defense line!
Verratti received the ball and shot from long range!
The football was blocked by Kendish's body, and Pilibatis received the ball and quickly passed it to Xia Han who was returning to defense!
Xia Han speeds up and wants to launch a counterattack!
He dribbled the ball quickly past Motta and broke through the barrier alone!
Individual heroism seems to be happening again!
But this time, as soon as he passed the midfield, Thiago Silva and Maxwell joined forces to defend and the ball was intercepted!

Time passed by minute by minute.

Blanco did not make any adjustments and continued with high-pressure attack!

Demblauskas kept making gestures in the command area, signaling the back line not to be distracted and to pay attention to assisting defense.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Di Maria made a lob pass into the penalty area and Ibrahimovic headed the ball!

Matuidi got a good chance to shoot. He was unmarked and adjusted himself before shooting!
Then he fired an anti-aircraft gun!

The football flew straight into the stands!

The fans in the stands sighed!
But two minutes later, Di Maria rushed forward alone!
After passing a defender, he passed the ball to Ibrahimovic in zone 14!

Ibrahimovic looked up and sent a beautiful lob pass! Matuidi made a sharp forward run and appeared at the back post!
No stopping the ball and volleying!
boom!
The loud sound of the foot touching the football!

It was like a torpedo whizzing towards the goal!

Witkauskas leaped forward to dive, but the ball was too fast and he didn't touch anything!
The football went straight into Zalgiris' goal!
3-2! ! !

The Parc des Princes was boiling at this moment!

"Pretty!"

"The goal went in!"

"Paris Saint-Germain pass, Di Maria passes to Ibrahimovic in the 14th zone! The Swedish striker's delicate footwork makes a wonderful pass!"

"Matuidi's volley broke through the bus of Zalgiris!"

"Zalgiris tried his best! Every player was defending hard! Unfortunately, Paris Saint-Germain's powerful attack scored the third goal!"

"You have to believe that victory is not easy to come by..."

"The fans at the Parc des Princes cheered like an avalanche and tsunami! Celebrating this beautiful goal!" Duan Xuan interrupted He Wei's poetry casting.

"Should Zalgiris change his strategy and start a counterattack? Or should he defend the goal and prevent Paris Saint-Germain from scoring a fourth goal?"

In the Chinese live broadcast room, barrages of comments were flying.
-
[This is a lob pass! Ibrahimovic still has some energy left! ]
-
[This time, Zalgiris is really GG. I was hoping for an upset! ]
-
[This is Xia Han's official Champions League debut! His double-scoring performance is amazing! There must be scouts from big clubs watching in the stands! ]
-
[My worth has skyrocketed! Guys! I think it will cost me 30 million!]
-
[There's not much time left for Zalgiris! It's still good to hold on to this score! ]

Ibrahimovic trotted to the corner flag area, opened his arms and smiled disdainfully, as if he had scored the goal.

Matuidi slid to his knees, stood up, pumped his fist, and then hugged his teammates who ran over to celebrate!

Xia Han ran into the goal, picked up the football that fell into the net, then threw the ball lightly and kicked it towards the midfield like a goalkeeper kicking his foot!
After the score was reversed, everyone in Zalgiris was dejected!
"Don't be discouraged! We still have a chance!" Xia Han shouted loudly at his dejected teammates.

"There are about 30 minutes left in the game. Why can't we score one more goal, or even two more goals!"

"Pass the damn ball to me! All you have to do is defend the goal! Don't lose the ball again! Scoring goals is the striker's responsibility! I'll score!" Xia Han looked at his teammates nearby and spoke in a loud and clear voice!
With Xia Han's encouragement, the players of Zalgiris regained some morale.

After celebrating, Blanc made Paris Saint-Germain's first substitution, replacing Di Maria with Lavezzi!
"After overtaking the score, Blanco made a substitution, Lavezzi replaced Di Maria!"

"Lavezzi has strong explosive power! His breakthroughs are also very sharp! The only pity is that he lacks the ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal and the finishing touch!"

The game resumed in the middle circle, and Xia Han received the kick-off from Pilibaitis.

Facing Lavezzi's quick interception, Xia Han pulled the ball with his right foot and quickly pushed it with the outside of his left foot!
Start the blast mode!
He toughly attacked Matuidi, faced the combined defense of Thiago Silva and Verratti, and Maxwell's quick rescue!
Xia Han looked around and found no route to pass the ball. His teammates were all guarding the midfield and backcourt, so Xia Han was the only one left in the frontcourt.

Xia Han barely managed to create some space and tried to kick out a sudden attack!
Trying to catch Paris Saint-Germain's defense off guard!
Before he could even kick, Maxwell tackled him to the ground in time!
Zalgiris gets a free kick opportunity!
