Perfect Center

Chapter 68: Shooting! Scoring twice!

"It's in! The ball is in!"

"A wonderful penalty kick! The ball was shot out like a heavy sword!"

"Xia Han created the penalty himself! After a small incident, he completed it in one fell swoop! He shot the ball in violently!"

"Less than five minutes into the game, Xia Han helped Zalgiris take a 1-0 lead!"

Piatov half-knelt on the left side of the goal. He felt that even if he guessed the direction correctly, he would not be able to save Xia Han's penalty kick. The quality of this penalty kick was too high and the force was too heavy!

Xia Han ran towards the corner flag area, jumped up and punched!
"summer!!!"

"summer!!!"

The fans in the stands shouted Xia Han's name loudly!

The big screen replayed this high-quality penalty kick! -
[I love this kick so much! 】
-
【It hit my heart! 】
-
[Everyone in the daily life gave Xia Han a nickname: The Ultimate Mighty Tiger! ]
-
[It’s not as good as the overbearing を行く王それ虎! 】
-
【Domineering and handsome! 】

At the sidelines, Dan Blauskas patted assistant coach Baga on the shoulder and shouted, "What a dream start! Xia is simply amazing!"

"By the way, that guy Elivito has to be replaced at halftime. Has he been injured for too long and can't tell the difference between a big king and a small king? It just so happens that there is a team interested in him, so we can send him away!"

"Let's replace En Yu Yaqi at halftime. He and Xia have some tacit cooperation!"

When Elivito was grabbing the penalty kick, Enyuyazi got so excited that he almost rushed onto the field to stand up for Xia Han.

Lucescu's face has returned to calm.

When the referee just awarded the penalty, he got very emotional.

"This adds another yellow card, and makes defense even harder! It's better to let him have a single shot, maybe he won't score..." Lucescu said depressedly.

Rakitsky had a yellow card on his back, so he had to be more cautious when defending Xia Han. If his movements were too big and he was given a yellow card, two yellow cards would turn into one red card, and that would mean he would be finished.

Srna clapped his hands to signal his teammates to cheer up. The game had just begun and they had plenty of time, not to mention that the goal was a penalty kick.

Piatov clapped his gloves and loudly encouraged his teammates!
You guys just attack, we'll defend you!

The Zalgiris players ended their celebration and returned to the center circle.

In the next game, under the adjustment of Dambruaskas, Zalgiris strengthened the on-the-spot pressing in the frontcourt.

Shakhtar Donetsk just kicked off.

He was pressured by Zalgiris in the frontcourt.

Teixeira received a return pass from Gladcky and easily dodged Eliberto's reckless attempt.

Push forward, observe, and push the arch of your foot after adjustment!
The football rolled at high speed along the grass to Bernard's feet.

Bernard received the ball and moved forward!
He dribbled the ball all the way to the 30-meter area. The players on Zalgiris's back line were in position, and Kerla stepped forward to press his dribbling route.

Bernard performed a skillful feint, took a step forward with his right foot, pushed with his left foot, broke through Kerla's defense, and then kicked the ball into the middle!

Gladki appeared in the penalty area of ​​​​Zalgiris, kicked the grass with both feet, and jumped high in the penalty area!

Fred Gimas was very focused. When Gladcky took off, he jumped up at the same time and gently pulled Gladcky with his hand to interfere with his header!

"Teixeira! Great escape! This spiritual attacking midfielder is the core player of Shakhtar Donetsk!"

"Elivitor was careless in his attempt to steal the ball and completely lost his position. Teixeira had plenty of time to observe the movement of his teammates!"

"Malos and Bernard fly on both wings, pulling the defense line of Zalgris on the sidelines!"

"Teixeira pushed forward and made a straight pass on the ground! Fast and accurate! He found Bernard! Bernard ran all the way, shook off Kerla and made a cross!"

"A very high-quality cross! Gladki's header!"

Snap!
Gladki heads the ball!

The football flew past the crossbar due to the interference of Fred Gimas! "Fred Gimas! He reacted in time and successfully interfered with Gladki's header!"

"This header is very threatening!"

At the sidelines, Lucescu waved his arms and shouted to the field: "That's it, Gladcky did a great job! Make more passes to me!"

In the ninth minute of the game, Shakhtar Donetsk created another threatening opportunity with the help of Teixeira.

Pilibatis' pass was wrong and the ball went directly to Teixeira's feet.

Teixeira kicked the ball out!
Marlos stopped and passed, broke through Vitkunas' defense, and suddenly cut inside and shot!
The football slightly touched Sverreuga's outstretched foot when he was defending.

Changed the direction of football!

The football hit the post of the Zalgiris goal directly and bounced slightly in front of the goal.

Witkauskas reacted quickly, fell to the ground and caught the football in his arms.

"Beautiful! Play like this!" Lucescu continued to encourage the players on the sidelines.

After Rakitsky received a yellow card, Kuchel was appointed to mark Xia Han.

Xia Han frequently made off-ball runs in the frontcourt to create open spaces.

After Salgiris got the ball, Kuchel immediately stuck to Xia Han like a piece of taffy.

Time passed slowly.

Under the high-intensity pressing pressure, the midfielders of both sides made constant small mistakes and created shooting opportunities, but failed to score a goal.

Twenty-seventh minute of the game.

Pilibaitis was hit from behind by Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred while dribbling the ball in the midfield.

Pilibatis was knocked to the ground cleanly.

The referee ran over, took out a yellow card from his pocket and pointed it at Fred.

After showing the yellow card, ignoring Fred's innocent look, the referee signaled to Zalgiris that he could take the free kick.

Fred still put on an innocent attitude and complained to the referee that Pilibatis was diving and should not be given a yellow card.

The referee Anastasios looked at Fred sharply, signaling him to shut up and not question his decision.

Pilibaitis stood up quickly and took a quick free kick!

The football rolled to Ruksha's feet.

After receiving the ball, Lukesha made a long pass to the left!

Kuchel was distracted for a moment and failed to stick to Xia Han in time!
Xia Han stopped and dribbled past Kuchel!
Rakitsky filled in the defensive position, Kucher also quickly returned to defend, and Stepanenko also chased back!

Xia Han lowered his shoulders and faked a move, creating a chance for a cross!
Looking at the midfield, Elivito moved lazily and was completely blocked by Srna.

I can only come by myself!

In a flash, Xia Han made a fake cross, and Rakitsky quickly raised his foot to block it!

After pulling Rakitsky's center of gravity, Xia Han suddenly slammed it down!
The football comes to the left foot!

Just shoot along the way!

The football flew past Rakitsky!

Rushing towards the upper corner of the goal!
Piatov had already lowered his center of gravity, and he wanted to stand up and make a save, but he fell to the ground helplessly!
The football flies into the goal!

Shakhtar Donetsk's net was lifted up again!
2-0! ! !
