Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Deng Kai is already negotiating with the referee.

Matthäus quietly walked up to Simão, and the old football slicker immediately saw through Simão's inner struggle.

"You know better than anyone whether this is a penalty or not. You're a star who came from Sporting Lisbon, and the fans still have your best wishes. You can't treat them like this," Matthäus appealed to their emotions.

But Guardiola noticed this in time, rushed over and hugged Simão, whispering in his ear, "Simão, I understand how you feel. But this is a football field, we are professional players, and the only thing we can do is play good football."

"This penalty wasn't yours; it belonged to all the Barcelona players, the club, and the fans. This penalty might just decide whether the team can win a major trophy this season!"

Guardiola calmed Simão down, then glared at Matthäus.

Although he, a master of psychological warfare, failed to subdue Deng Kai, how could he possibly let someone else steal his home?

After two minutes of back-and-forth, Sporting Lisbon was still unable to change the referee's mind.

Rivaldo walked towards the penalty spot with the football in his arms.

Ten seconds later, a celebratory festivities erupted at Camp Nou.

Rivaldo converted the penalty, bringing Barcelona back to 2-1.

The overall score is 4 to 5.

If Barcelona scores just one more goal, they will go from trailing to leading.

This is why they acted as if they had won after the first leg ended in a 3-3 draw.

Goals scored away from home are really important.

This goal further excited the Barcelona players.

Their efforts paid off, which motivated them to work even harder, creating a virtuous cycle.

Sixty-eighth minute.

When Deng Kai had the ball in the middle, he was brought down by Xavi with a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu-style move.

Gandur remained unmoved.

Deng Kai slammed his hand on the table and stood up, rushing towards Harvey and pulling him down.

Harvey was very unhappy with Deng Kai's behavior, but after seeing Deng Kai's expression, he paused for a moment and didn't say anything more.

Deng Kai was clearly enraged by the referee's unfair decision.

Xavi knew whether his actions were fouls or not. If he were a seasoned veteran like Guardiola, he might have taken the opportunity to provoke Duncan and try to make Duncan leave the field with the ruby ​​once and for all.

But Harvey, being new to the workforce and still possessing a conscience, was momentarily at a loss.

However, just because Xavi has a conscience doesn't mean Gandour does.

Gandour rushed over and gave Deng Kai a yellow card.

He had previously warned Deng Kai that he would issue a yellow card for any similar fouls.

Moreover, Deng Kai's action itself was indeed worthy of a yellow card, but if we look at this one action without considering Harvey's previous actions in sequence...

This is why many online flame wars have each side claiming to be right; once the fragments are separated, the truth or falsehood changes dramatically.

"Are you sure your ruling is correct? I've been through a lot of special matches, and you remind me of a lot of outrageous moments!" This time, even Matthäus couldn't sit still.

You can bully others, but bullying Kai is going too far.

Gandour displayed the style of a card master today, issuing a yellow card with a backhand.

Matthäus was silenced.

Veterans Deschamps and Schmeichel then continued to battle Gandour, but they both knew that such an action was pointless.

Gandour is determined to send Barcelona into the UEFA Cup final today.

This is exactly what Trigra was most worried about.

During the group stage, Sporting Lisbon, as the dominant team, suffered losses due to the referee's insistence on ensuring an exciting match.

In the semifinals, they, as the underdogs, suffered unfair calls after taking the lead.

UEFA is really inhuman, only targeting the weak, right?

"Contact Editor-in-Chief Jiang Yunzhu and ask her to prepare the materials for this match. Regardless of the outcome, we will file an appeal after the match," Trigra said.

Maxa's face paled: "Are we... really going to go to war with UEFA? This... it's fine to do this if we lose, but if we advance, why would we need to appeal? If UEFA just makes things difficult for us, wouldn't the final be..."

Triguera gestured toward the pitch: "This isn't something we can decide; it's Kailh's decision. I guarantee that in the post-match interviews, he'll gather all the media to publicly express his dissatisfaction with the referee's officiating and question UEFA's fairness."

"No one can stop him, so all we can do is prepare as much evidence as possible for him and provide him with support."

"After all, he accomplished the most difficult and courageous tasks. Shouldn't we do what we can to help him?"

Maxa nodded repeatedly, shouting "Kai Shao is awesome!" as he rushed into the player tunnel to call Jiang Yunzhu.

Seventy-first minute.

Sporting Lisbon's mentality was affected, leading to defensive lapses.

Deng Kai rushed in to intercept but was evaded by Guardiola, who then made a long pass to Overmars.

Overmars cuts inside and passes the ball to Rivaldo.

Rivaldo feinted a long-range shot, then surged forward, using a combination of deception and acceleration to overpower Deschamps.

Pepe made a decisive move.

Rivaldo reacted faster, passing the ball across to the edge of the penalty area. He was already familiar with Pepe's defensive tactics, as Pepe was too aggressive.

Rivaldo passed the ball to a completely unoccupied area.

But once Guardiola moves in, it becomes an absolutely dangerous zone.

This is the tacit understanding that Rivaldo and Guardiola have developed over several years of playing together.

boom!

Guardiola met the ball head-on and unleashed a long-range shot without any adjustment.

However, Schmeichel did take her medication today.

He saved all those near-one-on-one long-range shots.

You can't possibly say that Guardiola's shooting skills are poor, can you?

However, the crisis was not over, and the football bounced up inside the penalty area.

With Pepe no longer interfering with him, Kluivert easily pounced on the rebound and scored from inside the penalty area.

"Goal!"

The entire Camp Nou stadium erupted in cheers.

Barcelona fans went crazy.

"The Dutch have done it! Kluivert is outrageously strong!"

"This is Barcelona! Putting aside all the controversies, Barcelona's goals are undeniably spectacular!"

"Two to two! Rivaldo, Guardiola, and Kluivert all stepped up to help Barcelona equalize."

"This brings the aggregate score to 5-5. Barcelona's three away goals outnumber Sporting Lisbon's two away goals, giving them the upper hand in the tie!"

Is Barcelona going to reach the UEFA Cup final?

"A miracle! This is a miracle! A UEFA Cup comeback from two goals down to win! I call it the Camp Nou Miracle!"

"No wonder their fans are so excited!"

"Oh! What are the Barcelona fans chanting in an organized manner? Let's go closer and listen..."

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