Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

"This is a very memorable goal. Sporting Lisbon opened the scoring at Barcelona's home ground, which is a huge boost to the young players' confidence!"

"This is also Duncan's first goal at Camp Nou."

"This stadium seems to have a special connection with Duncan. Duncan first appeared at this stadium in the 1999 Champions League final, when he was invited by Sir Alex Ferguson to watch the Champions League final between Manchester United and Bayern Munich."

"In the final moments of the match, Duncan shouted for Schmeichel in the backfield to come forward and contest the header, helping Manchester United equalize against Bayern. A minute later, he then allowed Solskjaer to enter the penalty area, giving Beckham the opportunity to take a corner kick."

"Then Beckham took a corner kick, and Solskjaer scored with a divine touch inside the six-yard box, sealing the victory for Bayern."

"That was Manchester United's highlight, the most important moment of their treble-winning season. To this day, Manchester United fans still believe that one player's name is missing from that trophy... Duncan!"

"And now, that Sporting Lisbon youth academy player, Dunquet, is fighting for a place in the UEFA Cup final. He might have a chance to etch his name onto the UEFA Cup trophy ahead of time!"

"A name that belongs entirely to him, not a name given to him by Manchester United!"

Interestingly, Bayern Munich is still among the Champions League semi-finalists this year, marking their third consecutive appearance in the semi-finals. They also have the potential to achieve the feat of reaching the Champions League final twice in three years.

"The only thing Bayern fans are afraid of right now is that Duncan doesn't believe in them. So they strongly support Duncan leading Sporting Lisbon to beat Barcelona. That way, Duncan's energy will be focused on the UEFA Cup, and he won't be cursing Bayern."

The commentator clearly knows Deng Kai very well, recounting Deng Kai's past experiences after he scored.

Although Deng Kai's fans are very familiar with these topics, they are nothing new to them.

But for many fans who are seeing Deng Kai play for the first time, these things are quite interesting.

This is how major tournaments and important matches boost a player's popularity.

If you perform well in this kind of competition, you can attract the attention from the competition's popularity pool to yourself.

The previous case of Viana is a successful example.

Quaresma did the same in the last match.

In this match, Deng Kai's goal also served a similar purpose.

But a single goal is not enough to make Barcelona surrender, especially at Camp Nou.

In the 20th minute, Barcelona's defensive midfielder Guardiola suddenly dribbled forward.

Deschamps moved forward to defend, Guardiola played a one-two with Rivaldo, and continued to advance.

Pepe was pulled out.

Guardiola's vision and passing are superb; a through ball behind Pepe completely shattered Sporting Lisbon's defense.

However, Pepe turned and chased back very quickly.

Overmars, who cut inside without the ball and shook off Barzagli, touched the ball a little too far with his first touch, and then he couldn't keep up with the ball.

Because Pepe had already returned, pushed Overmars aside, grabbed the ball, and passed it to Terry who was there to receive it.

To reiterate, if it were Fonte, Overmars would have had a clear one-on-one opportunity. His turning speed, tracking speed, and ability to handle the ball under pressure are far inferior to Pepe's.

Triguera and Maxa on the sidelines exchanged a glance, both thinking to themselves, "Rivaldo shot well!"

If it weren't for Wadao's headshot on Fonte, they really wouldn't have dared to take down Kai Shao's absolute fan.

On the bench, Fonte smiled slightly. If it were him, he wouldn't have rushed towards Guardiola at all; he would have waited inside the penalty area for Guardiola to pass the ball to him himself.

Guardiola: Do you think I can't shoot from long range?

In the 29th minute, Barcelona had their best scoring opportunity of the match so far.

Youngster Xavi feigned a back pass to Guardiola, turned and bypassed Viana, then delivered a long pass that precisely locked onto Kluivert.

Kluinvert dropped back to shake off Pepe's defense and leaped high, heading the ball directly to Simão, who had cut inside from the right.

Simão stopped and passed, and with his already half-body advantage, he used his speed to overpower Terry and get a half-one-on-one opportunity.

boom!

Simão unleashed a powerful shot from a tight angle inside the penalty area.

The entire operation was smooth and fluid, displaying the demeanor of a superstar.

But Schmeichel seemed to be stimulated by the familiar environment of Camp Nou, and dreamed of returning to his peak two years ago.

During his attack, Simão made a bold, impulsive lateral save, effectively blocking his powerful shot.

Simão exploded his head with both hands; it was unbelievable.

The Barcelona forwards found it unbelievable.

Such a high-quality goal, it was a sure goal!

Schmeichel must be cheating!

"Brilliant! Schmeichel was absolutely phenomenal today!"

"It was already surprising that he saved Kluivert's high-quality long-range shot. Now he's saved another sure goal. Is he really 38? He's only 28!"

The commentator spared no praise.

A good goalkeeper can sometimes play a bigger role than most of the team combined.

This save completely crushed Barcelona's morale.

Their attack became noticeably more hasty, and they conceded more goals.

Sporting Lisbon began to control possession of the ball.

In the 36th minute, Deng Kai was marked by Xavi in ​​the middle.

The others tacitly created space for them.

Sporting Lisbon saw a gesture reminiscent of Duncan Kobe's: spread out, one-on-one!

Barcelona, ​​on the other hand, believed that Duncan's presence in the middle posed little threat, and that the rest of the team should simply maintain their positions.

"Wow! This is interesting. Sporting Lisbon's central midfield maestro, Duncan, is facing off against Xavi, Barcelona's midfield successor. How will he handle it?"

"Xavi is 21 years old this year, but he has only just become an important rotation player at Barcelona and has not yet completely secured a starting position."

"And Deng Kai, who is almost sixteen, has already achieved initial success at Sporting Lisbon. He has become the team's on-field leader at the youngest age in the team."

"Logically, the player on Barcelona's side who should be going head-to-head with Deng Kai is Iniesta from the B team, who is even two and a half years older than Deng Kai. They once said that with Iniesta, they didn't need Deng Kai at all."

"But now they're facing off against Duncan and Xavi. Duncan and Ronaldo in the team are like that, always playing against older players, but they win more often than they lose, which is a kind of talent."

boom!

Facing Xavi, Deng Kai didn't use any fancy moves, simply chipping the ball over Xavi's right side with one kick.

Then he ran to Harvey's left.

The ball and the player have passed each other!

When attempting a head-on split-pass, the speed is increased!

I like playing football on the ground: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him.
