Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

"Gerrard isn't facing a 15-year-old ball boy from Liverpool's youth academy; he's facing Dunquet, the Portuguese league's best player this season! Any tiny mistake Gerrard makes could be seized upon by Dunquet!"

"Deng Kai's greatest strength in the Portuguese league was his incredibly fast passing!"

"Liverpool's lead is down to just one goal, they have to be on their toes."

"If Sporting Lisbon does manage to equalize, Liverpool will set a record they'd rather forget: being tied after leading by three goals in a final-level match!"

"Does Houllier need to make any adjustments to the game?"

"No adjustments! Houllier sat on the bench, looking quite calm. It seems he still believes in the players on the field."

"We had heard that Houllier had some special arrangements during halftime, but the specifics are still being investigated. What happens in the locker rooms after the match will definitely be a focus of attention."

"The brawl in Sporting Lisbon's dressing room and the special arrangements in Liverpool's dressing room sound very interesting."

As the game resumed, Liverpool players clearly found that the game was slipping out of their control.

Sporting Lisbon's players were like they were on steroids, their athleticism was even stronger than in the first half.

Liverpool fans have even expressed their hope that the International Anti-Doping Agency will conduct tests on Sporting Lisbon players.

It's hard to believe that this is the power of the spirit.

Making a horse run without feeding it is a physics-defying situation that only occurs with emotional beings.

Sixty-third minute.

Deng Kai passed the ball to Quaresma, who then looked for a position.

Gerrard stayed close to Deng Kai, giving him no chance to make a move.

On the other side, Quaresma received the ball and dribbled down the right flank, using his spinning moves to shake off Berg and then attempting to outmaneuver Carragher.

Carragher retreated steadily on defense.

Quaresma seized the opportunity to change possession with his left and right feet in front of him, then dribbled the ball inside.

If the ball changes direction in front of you, it's easy for the opponent to steal it.

People who play basketball understand this better.

But Carragher's outstretched leg was ten centimeters away from the ball.

He couldn't do much more while on defense.

boom!

Quaresma flicked the ball away with his left foot, then ran to the right, executing a beautiful one-two with the ball.

Carragher couldn't keep up with the ball and tried to pull Quaresma away.

If Quaresma moves in the same direction as the ball, he will definitely be caught by Carragra.

But Quaresma's move to the other side made things very difficult for Carragher, as Carragher was unable to exert any force.

It's like when you're about to throw a right hook at someone, and they just lean right into your right arm.

Pfft!

Unable to exert any force, Carragher was brought down by Quaresma's charge.

Countless people in the stands gasped in shock!

"It's over! Quaresma faked out Carragher, executed a beautiful nutmeg, and cut inside!"

"There are differences in the quality of youth storms! Liverpool's small youth storms are of very different quality. Owen, Gerrard, and Carragher are players of completely different levels."

"Owen is a world-class superstar. He was in the top ten for the FIFA World Player of the Year in 1998, and he is even stronger this year than he was three years ago."

"Gerrard is a near-star player, capable of being a starting player for a top club."

"Carragher is only at the level of the top five leagues, and can only serve as a rotation player for top clubs."

"Excessive disparity will lead to a waste of resources. Theoretically, how much water a wooden bucket can hold is determined by the shortest plank."

"But Sporting Lisbon is different. Whether it's Quaresma, Ronaldo, or Duncan, they are all near-star level players. They have better chemistry and can create a significant transformation in the team's strength!"

boom!

Just as the commentator was explaining, Quaresma pulled out Henjos and passed the ball back to Duncan on the right flank.

Deng Kai shoved Gerrard with both hands, and the latter, completely unprepared for Deng Kai's strength, instantly lost his position.

boom!

Deng Kai's long-range shot was both powerful and accurate.

However, Liverpool goalkeeper Westerwed made a superb save, managing to push Deng Kai's world-class shot out of bounds.

Liverpool's ability to come so close to winning the treble this season is not due to the outstanding performance of a few individual players, but rather to the stellar performance of the entire team.

Liverpool fans cheered loudly, celebrating their narrow escape.

Deng Kai called Viana to take the corner kick with him.

With a whistle, Deng Kai took a tactical corner kick, gently pushing the ball to Viana on the side.

Viana crossed the ball.

This is not a complicated tactic; many teams use this method for corner kicks.

The significance of this type of corner kick lies in disrupting the rhythm of the game.

It means turning one corner kick attack into two corner kick attacks.

They look no different.

But it created chaos within the restricted area.

In such chaos, determined players will gain a greater advantage.

boom!

Deng Kai's feint to take a corner kick was the first bluff.

Fonte and Ronaldo leaped high in a position where they couldn't reach the ball, forcing Liverpool to defend; this was the second feint.

The ball actually landed near Drogba.

Hyypia realized this and fought Drogba with all his might.

However, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

Barzagli!

A center-back from the lower leagues of Italy.

The best defender in the Portuguese league this season!

As he jumped up, he even muttered, "To hell with the red wine!"

when!

The football struck the underside of the crossbar and then fell into the net.

The entire audience was stunned.

Even Barzagli himself couldn't believe it.

"Goal! Miracle! A miracle has occurred!"

"3-3! Sporting Lisbon has equalized with a tactical corner kick!"

"That's insane! They came back from a 3-0 deficit to win 3-3! This is definitely the best game of the season!"

"Eleven minutes! Only eleven minutes have passed since Sporting Lisbon scored their first goal, and this young Portuguese team has scored three goals in just eleven minutes."

"Treble! Sporting Lisbon is on its way to its first-ever European treble!"

"A miracle is happening in Westfalen, and regardless of the outcome of this match, Sporting Lisbon's fighting spirit will be remembered!"

"Barzagli has done it! 200,000 euros! Sporting Lisbon only spent 200,000 euros to acquire him this season!"

"Hyypia has been marking Drogba, but he's overlooked Barzagli, who is also a formidable weapon in the penalty area!"

"Liverpool was too careless! The Portuguese league has already given Liverpool the right answer. Who to defend against is an open-book exam, and Liverpool just can't seem to get it right!" Fan Zhiyi lamented.

Huang Jianxiang was puzzled: "What open-book exam?"

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