Perfect Center

Chapter 95: A shocking blow! 3-1!

On the sidelines, Benítez pumped his fists to celebrate the goal.

"We will play like this from now on. There is no need to make any adjustments for the time being. We have to believe in the abilities of these players on the field. They have the ability to continue scoring goals!"

On the other side, Dambruaskas gestured to the players to pay attention to Real Madrid's attack, defend well, and not lose the ball again in the first half.

The game resumed, and the fans in the stands around the Bernabeu cheered like waves and booed from time to time as the team attacked and defended!
The Zalgiris football had just transitioned to Real Madrid's half when Mokums passed the ball to Xia Han.

As soon as Xia Han received the ball, Kovacic and Isco headed over.

Accompanied by boos from the Bernabeu Stadium.

Xia Han suddenly passed the ball and withstood Isco's physical confrontation before Kovacic blocked it.

The whole person was like a blue wolf, breaking through the encirclement of the two people.

"Wow!!"

"Xia Han, great breakthrough! He used his powerful explosive power to attack the defense of Kovacic and Isco!"

"It seems simple and crude, but it is not..."

Xia Han staggered out of the encirclement of two people with the ball.

Casemiro stepped up immediately.

Xia Han dribbled with the ball, facing the pressure from Casemiro, and made a nimble and graceful change of direction to break through Fat Tiger's pressure.

“A brilliant breakthrough!”

"Could it be that Zalgiris's threatening attack is coming?!"

The thirty-meter area in Real Madrid's half.

Xia Han did not continue dribbling the ball forward. During the process, he observed Real Madrid's defense line and Casillas' position.

With his eyes fixed on Real Madrid's goal, Xia Han raised his arms under the astonished gaze of the fans in the stands.

Casillas and the defense line all had an ominous feeling in their hearts.

Danilo took a step forward and quickly moved towards Xia Han.

boom!
After Xia Han adjusted himself, he raised his arms and swung his legs, and kicked out heavily with his right foot, firing a long-range heavy artillery!
The football was like a magical weapon that could cut through metal, and it rushed towards the goal of Real Madrid with great swiftness!
Danilo turned his back and rushed forward, trying to sacrifice himself to block Xia Han's powerful kick.

Nothing is blocked!
Casillas, who was guarding the goal behind him, broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly adjusted his position, looked at the speeding football, and leaped forward to pounce!

Nothing was touched.

The football passed through his gloves, hit the crossbar, and went straight into the sky!
Xia Han shook his head and sighed inwardly that it was a pity.

"pretty!!"

"The ball is going very fast! It's a powerful long shot from Xia Han!"

"Like a tiger descending from the mountain! This is a shot as swift as a tiger!"

"It might have made Real Madrid's goalkeeper and defense break out in a cold sweat!"

Casillas climbed up from the grass, cold sweat dripping from his eyes, "What the hell is this? How can you shoot from a distance at will? And the quality of the shot is so high!"

Danilo and Nacho were still in shock, and both cast their eyes on No. 14 Zalgiris who was raising his arms to encourage his teammates!
Xia Han raised his arms to encourage his teammates' high morale!

The Bernabeu Stadium became much quieter after Xia Han's long-range shot that shocked the crowd.

Casilla adjusted his mentality slightly, turned around and took the football thrown by the caddy.

Snapped!
Bigfoot directly finds a fulcrum!
The positions of the double defensive midfielders Casemiro and Kovacic began to move forward, and Isco and James Rodriguez crossed their positions to create transfers between the strong and weak sides.

The situation of the game did not change with Xia Han's powerful long-range shot.

Real Madrid's violent offensive was like a tsunami wave, one after another, hitting Zalgiris' penalty area.

Under Real Madrid's crazy attack, Zalgiris was completely suppressed in his own half.

Xia Han actively returned to defense, fully utilizing his keen ability to judge the ball's trajectory and making several key clearances.

"Zalgiris's defense line has shrunk, and the barrier in the midfield is guarding the front of the penalty area!"

"Real Madrid doesn't have any good solution. Zalgiris has already parked the bus and expressed a firm attitude. In this case, Real Madrid is likely to enter the halftime break with only a one-goal advantage!"

"There are three best ways to break this kind of dense defense: long shots, crosses, and set pieces!"

"Hey hey hey!"

“If Real Madrid wants to score in the first half, it depends on how long Zalgiris’ players can last without making mistakes in this high-intensity game!”

"They definitely can't sustain their concentration for long!"

Dambruskas had no choice but to watch Real Madrid's fierce attack and gestured on the sidelines, asking the Zalgiris players to conduct intensive defense.

"Don't lose your position! Stay focused and give away fewer corner kicks!"

The game time is like a gurgling stream, passing by every second.

Zalgiris's defense line was suppressed and on the verge of collapse under Real Madrid's sharp and fierce attack!

All the players' brains were constantly tense, with all their attention focused on defense, not daring to relax or be distracted at all.

Xia Han kept running back and forth to intercept in the half, just like a bee buzzing around the ears of Real Madrid players.

With accurate prediction of the ball's trajectory and Kovacic's several advances through the middle.

Xia Han burst out with speed, and before Kovacic could, he kicked the ball that Kovacic had dribbled past and shot it towards the goal of Real Madrid with a powerful kick!
The football fell into the Real Madrid penalty area and Casillas easily caught the ball.

"It's very difficult! It's very difficult to defend!"

"Xia Han's long-foot clearance this time can somewhat relieve some of the pressure on the Zalgiris players and give them a chance to catch their breath!"

“There’s not much time left in the first half!”

"Zalgris's defense is very tenacious!"

"We believe they can go into halftime with only a one-goal deficit!"

It was the 49th minute of the game, with only one minute left before the end of injury time in the first half.

Looking at the space in the middle, Casemiro fired a fierce long shot!
The football whizzed towards Zalgiris' goal!

With a bang, the football was blocked by Fred Gimas.

The football didn't fly far and bounced to the right side of the penalty area.

Marcelo stopped and passed, then cut sharply into the middle.

The Zalgiris defense was about to be broken, and Kuklis fought hard to defend. Facing the Samba full-back who cut inside, he used his hands and feet to knock him to the ground.

Beep!
The referee did not hesitate. The moment Marcelo fell to the grass, he blew the whistle, took out a yellow card from his pocket, and showed it to Kuklis.

Kuklis stretched out his hands, made an innocent gesture, and explained to the referee.

The referee ignored it, took out the foam spray, and drew a "U" at the place where Kuklis committed the foul!

"Ouch! Zalgris's defense made a mistake!"

"In the last minute of injury time, under the high-intensity pressure of the game, Real Madrid was given a free kick in a very good position!"

"From this free kick position, Real Madrid can shoot directly!" "Cristiano Ronaldo should take this free kick! This position is completely within his shooting range!"

"Zalgris! It's dangerous!"

The fans in the surrounding stands took out their mobile phones, ready to record the Real Madrid superstar's free kick!

Witkauskas was nervously directing the arrangement of the human wall, his whole body was highly concentrated.

"I can definitely get out!" Witkauskas repeated in his mind over and over again.

"C Ronaldo is already holding the football, standing alone in front of the penalty spot!"

"C Ronaldo has a great free-kick skill. We all know his amazing 'elevator ball' technique!"

"let us wait and see!"

Ronaldo showed off the explosive muscle lines on his thighs, his eyes revealed determination and a hint of ferocity.

Ronaldo observed Zalgiris's wall and Vitkauskas's position, and he was ready to go!
"C Ronaldo lifted his shorts high to show the world his throbbing thigh muscles!"

"There's tenacity in his eyes!"

"A fierce free kick is about to hit Zalgiris' goal!"

Beep!
The referee blew the whistle!
Under the gaze of all the fans at the scene, Ronaldo took a deep breath and started to sprint!
The sneakers left faint, concave footprints on the grass.

boom! !

With a loud crisp sound, Ronaldo's foot hit the football hard.

The football is like a heavy hammer, with great force and power!

Bypassed the high wall of people formed by Zalgiris.

Even if the human wall jumped high, they couldn't intercept the trajectory of the football.

The football drew a fierce arc in the air and hit the goal!
Witkauskas reacted immediately, leaping forward with his body stretched out in mid-air.

Tens of thousands of spectators at the Bernabeu Stadium watched the trajectory of the football!
Zalgiris's net was lifted high!
3-1! ! !

The score was rewritten!
As the football fell into the net, the entire Bernabeu Stadium was in an uproar!

"Pretty!"

"The goal went in!"

"C Ronaldo! A goal from a free kick! His free kick broke through the goal guarded by Vitkauskas with unstoppable force!"

"In the last minute of injury time in the first half, Ronaldo scored twice! Helped Real Madrid expand their lead, changing the score to 3-1 and expanding the lead to two goals!"

"After a foul by Kuklis, Real Madrid got a free kick and Ronaldo scored!"

"Marcelo also deserves some credit, after all, it was this Brazilian full-back with afro who created the free kick opportunity!"

In the live broadcast room.
-
[Are there still some who think that this can be reversed? 】
-
[Zalgris is now completely finished. Under the fierce attack of Real Madrid, the high intensity and full concentration will definitely lead to more and more mistakes! ]
-
【Mistakes are inevitable! 】
-
[Even if we didn't give this free kick opportunity, after Kuklis let Marcelo pass, James Rodriguez and Isco were in position to support each other, it was difficult to avoid losing the ball! ]

Beep! Beep! Beep!
After confirming the goal, the referee glanced at the time.

A moment later, when the injury time was up, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game!
After running to Marcelo and high-fiving him to celebrate, Ronaldo trotted to the corner flag area again and jumped high!

He scored twice and turned in the air!

Once again performed the most classic celebration move!

"Siu!!!"

“Hala Madrid!!!”

"Cristiano!!!"

The white ocean stands on all sides erupted in exaggerated cheers, and the fans of the Bernabeu felt that the game had lost its suspense.

Inside the Real Madrid dressing room.

Benítez moved the tactical flags quickly.

"Their defense is already exhausted. They are totally unable to withstand our offensive!"

"Let's continue to speed up the tempo and make our attack more fierce. After 65 minutes, the defenders of Zalgiris will be over-exerted and make more and more mistakes!"

"We have to limit Xia! We have to do a good job of defense!"

"Cheer up! Victory is just around the corner!"

In several of Xia Han's Champions League games and even in the Lithuanian League, there were countless scouts, analysts and statsmen in the stands observing his performance on the field.

But Xia Han is like a cheating player.

The weakness that had just been observed in the previous game was of no use in the next game because Xia Han made up for the shortcoming.

This terrifying speed of progress is astonishing.

“We should continue to attack like this in the second half, and let the defensive midfielder and full-backs keep running forward and advancing to create greater threats! Let us win the game with a crushing advantage!”

As Benítez's last words fell, all the Real Madrid players nodded in response!
Ronaldo sat on a chair in the locker room to rest, his eyes became determined. He wanted to score more goals in the second half, the more the better!

Xia Han’s number of goals shocked him, and he didn’t want to give up the honor of the Champions League Golden Boot to others.

"I will give you an assist!" Marcelo came to Ronaldo, put his arm around his shoulder and said.

In the Salgris locker room on the other side.

The atmosphere is somewhat dull and quiet.

There was a hint of apology in Kuklis' eyes. He felt that it was his foul that gave Real Madrid the opportunity for a free kick, which led to the loss of the ball.

Xia Han patted him on the shoulder and told him not to underestimate himself.

After holding on for such a long time, they lost the ball in the last minute of the first half. It was a scene that no one wanted to see, and it also made them feel lost.

Dambruskas' face looked a little gloomy. He waved a small tactical flag in his hand and opened and closed his mouth but no sound came out. The gap in strength between Real Madrid and Zalgiris was like a river in the sky.

In the face of a huge gap in strength, the only thing that matters is intensive defense and counterattacks, in addition to the explosiveness of individual abilities.

The silent atmosphere made everyone feel a little depressed.

"Cheer up! It's already remarkable that we were able to hold on for the rest of the time after Real Madrid scored the second goal. Don't keep your heads down like this. We shouldn't feel bad, we should feel happy!" Dambruaskas organized his words and spoke loudly while tapping the tactical blackboard.

"Don't be too reckless at the start of the second half! Guard against their fast break at the start!" Dambruaskas briefly arranged the tactical adjustments for the second half.

"Please pass the ball to my feet as much as possible. I will try my best to advance and score a goal!" Xia Han stood in the middle of the crowd, patting his chest and said, his tone full of determination.

"Did you hear the boos outside? What does it mean? It means that they are still afraid of us in their hearts. They are afraid that we will score again!" Xia Han's eyes were bright.

He raised his fist and swung it down fiercely: "Let's cheer up and rekindle our fighting spirit! Let them understand our threat in the second half! Let's make things difficult for Real Madrid!"

clap clap clap! ! !
Witkauskas and Danbruskas were the first to applaud, followed by a warm applause!

The players of Zalgiris saw a hint of fierceness on the face of the young and handsome Xia Han, and their fighting spirit was rekindled!

"Now let's take a good rest and wait for the second half of the game!" Dambruaskas clapped his hands.
