Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Chapter 417 Midfield Showdown, Champagne Curse, and Sacrificial Players

The halftime break is about to end.

Maxi opened the locker room door, signaling the players to return to the field.

However, the next moment, everyone's expression changed.

Because there was a bottle of champagne at the entrance to the locker room!

"Fuck!" Maxa was furious.

He clearly returned the red wine, so how come... it's Bayern Munich?

"Those bastards!" Maxa realized.

They are cursed!

That's outrageous!

Bayern Munich, a powerhouse, actually wants to become the next Sporting Lisbon?

You're just imitating the real thing, which is a bit disrespectful to the original.

The Sporting Lisbon players all looked grim.

They have more faith in the Sporting Lisbon miracle and the wine curse in the midfield dressing room than any other fan in the world.

Because they were there firsthand.

There are some things you'll never believe until you experience them firsthand.

But once you encounter it, you'll have no choice but to believe it.

"Fonte, take this." Deng Kai said a few words to Fonte, then gestured for the players to follow him onto the field.

Fonte was both nervous and excited.

Coming, coming, coming!

Kai Shao, no, I mean Kai Huang's mission has finally arrived!

This signifies that Kai has placed even greater importance on him!

So, when halftime ended and the players from both sides entered the field...

Fonte suddenly rushed to the sideline, pressed his thumb against the open champagne bottle, and shook it violently.

Then slightly loosen your thumb.

Whoosh!

Whizzing!

Whoosh whoosh!

Champagne shot into the sky, spraying everywhere, like a fireworks display, creating a spectacular scene.

The fans at the scene were stunned.

This... this isn't an NBA All-Star exhibition game, is it?

Fonte is just... having a blast!

Soon, the referee angrily showed Fonte a red card, sending him off the field.

But Fonte, who climbed onto the fans' stand, became a hero for Sporting Lisbon fans.

of course.

Bayern fans hate Fonte to death.

Because Fonte was essentially celebrating Sporting Lisbon's victory.

This is a blatant disregard for Bayern Munich.

The Bayern players were also furious and wanted to cause trouble for the Sporting Lisbon players, but Hitzfeld stopped them.

As for the reason... of course, it's because Hitzfeld arranged for that bottle of champagne to be placed at the entrance of the Sporting Lisbon locker room.

But he didn't expect Sporting Lisbon to turn the tables on him by sacrificing Fonte to boost the team's morale.

high!

There's a master in this team!

Hitzfeld looked at Maxa.

Triglav is a true academic head coach, skilled at developing players and with some tactical knowledge.

However, this unconventional and ingenious approach, unlike that of the original Saint Seiya, actually possesses a strong Saint Seiya style.

One word—survival!

Sixty-second minute.

With everyone united in their hatred of the enemy, Bayern launched a furious attack.

Salihamidzic broke through on the wing and delivered a beautiful cross.

Pizarro headed the ball across at the near post, and Elber outjumped Barzagli and unleashed a powerful half-turn shot that sealed the victory!

One to three!

Bayern Munich are starting to close the gap!

Everyone inevitably thought of what happened in this year's UEFA Cup final.

In the 72nd minute, Sporting Lisbon made a substitution.

Kaká replaced Lothar Matthäus, who scored the goal.

In the 79th minute, Sporting Lisbon made another substitution, replacing goal scorer Drogba with Ibrahimovic.

They are clearly stalling for time.

In the 85th minute, Sporting Lisbon used their third substitution, with young player Yaya Touré replacing Ronaldinho.

Because Toure walked very slowly at Maksa's instruction, he received a yellow card as soon as he came on.

However, Bayern Munich's frustration led them to complain to the referee, resulting in Pizarro also receiving a yellow card.

With Toure replaced by Ronaldinho, Sporting Lisbon's 4-3-3 formation changed to a 4-4-2.

Eighty-seventh minute.

Sporting Lisbon was unable to stop Bayern's attack, and Effenberg successfully got a long-range shot opportunity.

Unfortunately, the ball hit the goalpost.

Deng Kai immediately clapped his hands, signaling his teammates to cheer up and that even if they got a card, they absolutely couldn't let Bayern score again.

Bayern Munich fans have shifted their hopes from wanting Bayern to become the next Sporting Lisbon to wanting Bayern to become the next Manchester United.

Because Manchester United once scored two goals in quick succession to turn the game around and win the trophy.

Bayern Munich player: ? ? ?

The regular match time has ended, and the game has entered stoppage time.

Ninety-first minute.

Effenberg and Duncan engaged in a fierce battle for the ball.

Unlike Effenberg, whose physical condition clearly declined, Deng Kai's condition was even better after eighty minutes.

Effenberg initially thought it was a misperception, but he was certain after this scramble for the ball with Deng Kai that the kid's stamina was truly freakish; he even had more energy than in the first half!

Deng Kai reached out and braced Effenberg, then used a clamshell-shaped swivel to propel him forward.

After spinning twice, Effenberg moved from in front of Deng Kai to behind him.

Because of the other players pulling him away, Deng Kai only had Effenberg as his defender.

boom!

Deng Kai kicked the ball out and prepared to accelerate into the penalty area.

Effenberg had no choice but to tackle from behind, bringing Deng Kai down.

The referee gave a signal that the attack was in the favor.

As Deng Kai watched the ball slip out of his control, he repeatedly slapped the grass on the ground, as if to say that Effenberg's foul was practically a crime!

Deng Kai took many shots, but the device failed to activate for a long time.

However, the reason he didn't get up to chase the ball immediately was not only because his ankle was a little sore, but also because there was already someone in front of him.

Cristiano Ronaldo is in a fierce race with Kuffour, and they both have a chance to touch the ball before Kahn.

Kuffour is at his peak and is one of the top right-backs of this period.

Logically, he shouldn't have been unable to defend against Ronaldo.

However, Cristiano Ronaldo was the European Bronze Boot winner last season, and if European goals are included, he should be the European Golden Boot winner!

Even with many unpredictable factors, such as the Portuguese league not being comparable to the Bundesliga, and the UEFA Cup not being comparable to the Champions League.

But a goal is a goal.

Cristiano Ronaldo accelerated twice, managing to overtake Kuffour by a full half-body length.

Robert Kovac, who was rushing over from the other side, had no choice but to use a shovel as well.

But his tackles were clearly less decisive than Effenberg's.

"Oh! The referee has blown the whistle!"

"Kovacs Jr. made a mistake!"

"Cristiano Ronaldo has fallen in the penalty area! The Croatian tackle wasn't decisive enough! He let Ronaldo into the box!"

"Red card! The referee has shown Kovac a red card!"

"Yellow card! Two yellow cards make a red card, Effenberg is sent off!"

"Penalty! This is a terrible result for Bayern."

"Therefore, regardless of whether the penalty is converted or not, Sporting Lisbon will win this match!"

"Deng Kai has stepped up; he's going to take this penalty."

"Ronaldo passed the ball to Duncan and stood at the penalty spot to protect the turf, but it was unnecessary. Apart from Kahn, the other Bayern players had already given up!"

"Deng Kai walked towards the penalty spot, having previously been pounding the turf repeatedly, seemingly furious about Effenberg's foul!"
