Lotus judged the direction correctly, jumped up with all his strength, and at the critical moment, he flicked the football upwards with both hands.

The soccer ball, which was supposed to hit the net, flew over the ball frame.

"Oh, what a pity."

"It's only a billion points away!"

"It was Lotus who got lucky and came across football."

"This shot is still very threatening, and Wang Mi and Luo Feng cooperated very well!"

"···"

The Huaguo fans were a little disappointed, but they still gave warm applause to Wang Mi and Luo Feng who brought wonderful performances.

Lotus broke out in a cold sweat, and said: "Who the hell said that the Hua Guo team is useless, I must knock out his teeth."

The ball just now was too dangerous. Lotus relied entirely on instinct and experience, plus a little bit of luck, to help the team save the day.

If it were replaced by another goalkeeper, it is estimated that it would be 1:0 now.

Piero was also breaking out in a cold sweat, and said: "This Wang Mi of the Hua Guo team is an excellent striker killer, add one more person to guard against him."

Therefore, Wang Mi enjoyed the personal protection of two Italian players.

Less than 6 minutes after the start of the battle, players from both sides contributed a wonderful shot, which made the audience very nervous.

However, what makes people feel speechless is that these two shots turned out to be the most threatening shots in the first half. In the following time, the players on both sides played meaninglessly.

They all strengthened their defense and were entangled in the midfield. Although the Italian team occasionally rushed into the penalty area, they failed to find a good chance to shoot under the interference of the defenders of the Huaguo team.

Soon, the first half was over, and the two sides handed each other a goalless draw.

"Damn, I almost fell asleep, what kind of broken ball is this kicking?" Wu Jin couldn't help complaining.

Li Liangjie said: "The Italian team is a defensive team, and its offensive power is far inferior to that of the Portuguese team. Our team obviously adopts a defensive strategy. Both the defenders and the forwards are trying to delay time."

"It's a bad thing if these two teams meet together and can play well."

Wu Jin asked curiously: "Brother Jie, what do you think our chances of winning are?"

"It's hard to say." Li Liangjie said: "The Italian team's physical strength is much stronger than ours. I think the key points of this game will be in the second half and overtime."

"If we can guarantee not to concede a goal during this period, then we can enter the penalty shootout. With Zhang Xiao's goalkeeping ability, we will definitely win the penalty shootout."

Wu Jin was silent for a moment, and said, "What if you miss a ball?"

Li Liangjie said without hesitation: "Then we can pack up and leave, because of the Huaguo team's offensive ability, I really can't see the hope of scoring goals."

After 15 minutes, the second half of the match between the two teams began.

The Italian team stepped up their offensive as soon as they came up. In the 6th minute, center Depp saw a gap and passed the football to Karl, who was less than 30 meters away from the goal.

Carl was able to become the captain of the Italian team, relying on his good skills. After catching the ball, he ran forward five meters. Facing the defender who came to intercept him, he used an emergency stop and turned to change direction. Loosely broke through the defense.

At this time, there was no defender in front of him. Seeing that Karl was getting closer to the goal, the hearts of Huaguo fans were almost in their throats.

I prayed secretly in my heart.

Don't go in!
Don't go in!

Zhang Xiao bent his body slightly, his eyes were like lightning, and he was staring at the football. When he was about 15 meters away from the goal, Karl shot a strong shot, and the football went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

The reason why Karl chose to shoot from this position was that there was no other way, because Baoshuiyuan had rushed over from behind.

Even if the defender's skills are at the top of the major European competitions, Karl really can't guarantee that he can handle him, so he had to shoot before he arrived.

"boom!"

The football hit the goal frame of the Hua Guo team and bounced high. Unfortunately, the direction the ball bounced was the Italian team striker Olsen.

He jumped up like a rocket, swung his head vigorously, and the football headed towards the Hua Guo team's goal again.

"Good come!"

Zhang Xiao jumped up high, raised his right hand, and slapped the flying football hard.

"Bang!" The football was shot out of bounds by Zhang Xiao.

"Damn, football can also block shots?"

"Too aggressive."

"God Xiao is awesome!"

"···"

At this moment, both Hua Guo fans and Italian fans gave warm applause to Zhang Xiao.

Such a performance is enough to gain the respect of any fan.

Carl touched Olsen and said, "Why are you in a daze, take a corner kick quickly."

Olson said: "Carl, is this still a human being? He can actually shoot my football away."

Carl said with a smile: "Our boss is a kung fu master. Let alone shooting the ball, I am not surprised at all if he shoots you."

Olsen let out a breath of cold air and said, "I must defeat him."

After speaking, Olsen came to the teeing area and drove directly towards the penalty area.

There was chaos in front of the goal, and players on both sides were desperately grabbing the ball.

"oops!!!"

An Italian player let out a scream, and then fell directly to the ground.

"duo~~~"

The referee blew his whistle and ran over.

Defender Su Chen raised his hand and said to the referee in English, "Sir, I only weigh 76 kilograms."

The referee was taken aback, looking at the Italian player who weighed at least [-] kilograms and kept rolling on the ground, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Can you pretend to be a little more like it?
Since the penalty kick was involved, the referee had not seen clearly just now and had to ask the referee for help.

Soon the two had just arrived on the big screen.

Su Chen and Rosa collided while grabbing the ball, and Rosa fell directly to the ground.

"Damn, can you make the fall a little more fake?"

"Such a strong person will fall down when touched, what kind of international joke are you making?"

"It's really stupid, what age is it now, and you still use this kind of rubbish trick."

"The behavior is too bad, it should be a red card!"

Huaguo fans discussed and expressed their dissatisfaction.

The referee did not hesitate to give Rosa a yellow card for diving, and Italian coach Del Piero kicked over the stool angrily.

Obviously his own side has already taken advantage, but Rosa still uses this kind of pediatric method to cheat penalties, which is really stupid.

Bao Shuiyuan walked up to Su Chen and said, "Brother, I'll leave this Rosa to you, find a way to send him off with a red card!"

Su Chen nodded, and said, "This guy seems to have quite a temper, leave it to me!"

In terms of strength, the Hua Guo team is far inferior to the Yi Guo team in terms of offensive ability and defensive ability.

Coupled with their severe physical exertion, the gap with the Italian team became wider and wider. Therefore, the Italian team dominated the offense almost throughout the second half. Shots are few and far between.

However, Huaguo players have always adopted winding tactics to prevent the opponent's players from getting the ball happily.

As a result, the players of the Italian team increased their header attacks.

For 10 minutes in a row, Zhang Xiao abruptly saved four threatening headers and two corner kicks.

Fans on the Internet couldn't take it anymore when they saw this.

"Damn, what is this doing?"

"I feel like Xiao Shen is playing against the entire Italian team by himself!"

"I was pushed into my own half by someone else, what the hell is this!"

"Fortunately, God Xiao is guarding the goal, otherwise, it would have been 4:0 or even 5:0."

"Oh, now I can only rely on God Xiao."

···
In the 3 minutes of the second half, after receiving a pass from his teammate, Karl started to dribble the ball from the midfield, accelerated and changed direction twice in a row, and even passed the two defenders of the Huaguo team, tearing apart the Huaguo team's defense system with ease.

Carl's quick dribble, a lob shot, went straight to Rosa in the penalty area of ​​the Hua Guo team.

Rosa was strongly interfered by Su Chen, but still firmly gained the upper hand and grabbed the ball.

"boom!"

Another header, this is Rosa's third header and the most threatening one.

Zhang Xiao jumped into the air and hugged the football.

"Ugh!"

The Italian fans sighed deeply.

Hua Guo fans breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Rosa on the field suddenly pushed Su Chen.

Su Chen staggered back three steps, then sat down on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the players of the Hua Guo team immediately surrounded them and asked, "What are you doing?"

Rosa gritted his teeth and said in English: "He's insulting me!"

The referee ran over immediately and showed Rosa a yellow card without hesitation.

Two yellow cards were exchanged for a red card and Rosa was sent off.

Karl hurried to the referee and explained to him.

The referee said: "I saw very clearly just now that the opponent just blew a whistle after seeing that there was no goal and no goal was scored. There was no quarrel or inappropriate action, so there was no insult."

Karl and the two players were choked and speechless.

Bao Shuiyuan helped Su Chen up, and asked softly in Mandarin, "How did you provoke him?"

Su Chen proudly said, "Every time he misses with his header, I whistle cheerfully in his ear."

Bao Shuiyuan understood immediately, and said, "It's really you."

Piero, head coach of the Italian team, blushed with anger, clutching his heart and said, "This bastard, you really deserve to die."

The number of players on both sides became 11:10, which made the Italian team, which was not good at attacking, a little weak in attacking.

Carl, the core of the Italian team's offense, was directly protected by two defenders, so that he did not play a big role throughout the second half.

In the end, the two sides ended the game with a 0:0 record.

In overtime after 15 minutes, Robin replaced three exhausted defenders with substitute players.

The match scene between the two teams was still ugly to death. Except for Wang Mi, the forwards of the Huaguo team were so bad that they couldn't even break into their penalty area.

The Italian team lost one player. When the Chinese team entered the second half, they would immediately be entangled by the opponent, especially the arrow figures Carl and Olsen, who were both attacked by two players.

Although there were moments of wonderful performances, Carl even scored into the penalty area with his own football skills and made a threatening shot, but in front of Zhang Xiao, Carl's shot, even if it was better than his eyes, could only be carried by football. The sound of the wind can be stopped.

In the end, overtime ended and the result was still 0:0. The two teams entered the most brutal penalty shootout in the World Cup.

Li Liangjie said excitedly: "It's a penalty shootout, we can win, we will definitely win."

Wu Jin said carelessly: "If Zhang Xiao dares to lose, I must stew him."

Fans on the Internet are also extremely excited at the moment.

"This time, we will definitely enter the semi-finals."

"Shen Xiao is absolutely reliable."

"With Xiao Shen's kung fu, no one can score goals from him."

"Damn, I'm suddenly a little nervous."

"Who isn't so nervous, the semifinals are coming up."

"Xiao Shen, you can definitely win!"

"···"

The referee called Karl and Wang Mi to decide the order of penalty kicks by coin toss.

Karl was very unlucky, he guessed the coin and let the Huaguo team take the penalty kick first.

Soon, the two teams found five penalty kick players respectively. For penalty kicks, the pressure on the goalkeeper is much greater than that of shooting, because it is normal for the goalkeeper to not be able to defend the goal at such a short distance.

On the contrary, if the player who shoots the goal can't even kick into the penalty area, it should be very wrong.

Therefore, for a player to kick a penalty kick, what is considered is not the technical level, but the psychological quality. In order to be able to score the first goal, the first player of the Huaguo team to play is naturally the captain Wang Mi.

"duo~~"

When the whistle sounded, Wang Mi did not hesitate at all. After a run-up of ten meters, he kicked the football out. The football flew straight to the top of the goal with an astonishing speed.

Lotus roared and rose into the air.

It has to be said that Lotus is indeed an amazing goalkeeper. He judged the direction of the football, and the moment Wang Mi kicked the football, he was ready to throw the ball to the left.

Although the height of the football is a bit high, Lotus can still reach it.

"boom!"

Lotus hit the football field with a punch and directly missed the football.

"Yeah!" The players of the Italian team burst into cheers.

"Keep it well!"

"Lotus, you are awesome."

"From today on, Lotus is my idol."

"···"

The fans of the Italian team kept cheering.

There was dead silence in the stands of the fans of the Hua Guo team. The first ball was saved, which is really not good!

On the court, Wang Mi covered his face and knelt directly on the grass, tears streaming from his fingers.

The team members hurried forward to comfort, Luo Feng said: "Wang Mi, don't do this, the whole world is watching."

Bao Shuiyuan said: "Isn't it just a penalty kick? If you don't score, you don't score. We have brother Xiao here, so they will definitely not be able to score."

"Exactly!" Luo Feng said, "Although it is said to be a penalty shootout, in fact we can win as long as we can score one goal. Damn, I don't believe that the five of us can't even score a single goal."

"Damn!" Bao Shuiyuan scolded, "Shut your crow's mouth!"

Receiving the comfort of his teammates, Wang Mi's mood improved a lot. He took a deep breath, stood up and asked, "Has the opponent started taking penalties?"

Luo Feng turned his head to look, and said, "Damn it, it's started, Karl will be on stage."

At this time, Karl put the ball on the serving line and retreated about eight meters backward.

"beep!"

The whistle sounded, Karl moved, took a few big strides, and came to the football, only to hear a "bang", the football went towards the goal.

Zhang Xiao took the first step to the position he judged, waiting for the football to arrive.
