As a goalkeeper, carry the team forward

Chapter 199 Let Me Come (Various Requests)
On April 4, at the Bernabéu Stadium, the focus of the second round of the 22/1 final between Real Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen was played here.

In the stadium, there are huge crowds of people, and there are no empty seats.

Facing the awe-inspiring home fans, Leverkusen's players suddenly felt the pressure increased.

This is the Bernabéu!

After the end of the game, the semi-finals will all be born.

A day ago, Guardiola's Bayern team slaughtered Porto 6-1 at home, with a total score of 7-4 in the two rounds, and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

Barcelona defeated Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 at home, and won 3-1 away in the first leg. Barcelona completed a double play against Paris Saint-Germain.

The newly promoted local tyrant Paris Saint-Germain has also become the only team in the top 8 to be double-killed.

You can't play football without money.

But money alone is not enough.

Of course, this is also a manifestation of the powerful firepower of Barcelona's MSN combination.

Compared with the first round, the starting lists of both sides have not changed much.

For the Leverkusen team, Spahic continued to miss due to injury, and Toprak and Papadopoulos continued to join forces to partner in the Chinese position.

In addition, Delmic served as the starting center, and Kisling sat on the bench.

As for Real Madrid, the basic formation remains the same, except that Marcelo failed to enter the squad due to the accumulation of yellow cards, and Coentrao replaced him.

In addition, Bell, Benzema and Modric were all absent due to injuries, and Hernandez, Isco and Pepe played in rotation.

Among them, Hernandez served as the center forward, Ronaldo served as the right winger, Ramos moved forward and played as a defensive midfielder, and Pepe and Varane partnered as central defenders.

Real Madrid's bench is also full of talents. Keylor Navas, Arbeloa, Khedira, Illarramendi, Jesse and others are always waiting for Ancelotti's orders.

When the starting players of both sides lined up with the ball boys, the theme song of the Champions League sounded.

When the majestic and majestic music reached Jose's ears, a sense of grandeur arose spontaneously.

"So what about the Bernabéu? Today I am here to conquer you." Jose thought silently.

At the end of the song, players from both sides shook hands to indicate that friendship comes first and competition comes second.

However, Jose felt a mass of fighting spirit bursting out from Ronaldo's body.

Is this one of the reasons why Ronaldo keeps moving forward?

Facing the fighting spirit exuded by Ronaldo, Jose just smiled slightly, without any intention of flinching.

20:45 local time.

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially started.

Leverkusen got the chance to kick off first.

Unfortunately, the first wave of offense failed to break into Real Madrid's restricted area.

After getting the ball, Real Madrid played very proactively as always.

In less than 1 minute, Real Madrid had reached the Leverkusen penalty area.

Kroos passes the ball and it goes to Hernandez.

At 15 yards on the right side of the penalty area, Hernandez received a pass from his teammate and directly hit the goal. The ball flew towards the near post.

Although it was predicted that the opponent would miss a high probability, Jose still made a save.

As a result, Jose naturally rushed out.

One minute later, Hernandez was still in the same position, but this time he chose to hit the far post.

With just one glance, Jose could tell that the opponent's shot was still missed.

This time, Jose only moved his body slightly, the purpose was just to prevent someone from making a supplementary shot in the direction of the back post.

Not surprisingly, Hernandez's two consecutive shots ended off the goal.

The game continued, as in the first leg, Leverkusen had no chance to get close to Real Madrid's penalty area.

Schmidt had no choice but to direct the players to intercept the midfielder.

In the 7th minute, Real Madrid reached the penalty area again.

Ronaldo controlled the ball and cut across to the arc island.

Although the opponent has not yet fully broken into the penalty area, Jose has already played [-] points.

At this time, there are Real Madrid players outflanking the left and right sides of the penalty area.

Just as Jose wanted to call his teammates to pay attention to the marking of Real Madrid players on both sides, Ronaldo kicked the goal.

The ball was drawn by Ronaldo's left foot and immediately rolled towards the lower right corner of the goal.

This is a very threatening low ball. If it is not missed, Jose is really not 100% sure to save it.

In the end, Ronaldo's shot hit the goal post and went out of the baseline.

"Hey, Ronaldo wants to score too much. If the ball is given to Ronaldo on the right, the chance is obviously better."

"It's the same number of goals as Messi in the Champions League. Everyone wants to score more than the other side."

"Isn't the number of assists good?"

"People only remember how many goals Melo scored last season, how many people remember how many assists they had?"

The reality is, as this fan said, except for senior fans, few people will remember who the assister is, and the number of assists is just an inconspicuous number.

When Jose took the goal kick, he also contributed a few assists, but the media rarely mentioned it.

The game continues.

In the 8th minute, the Leverkusen team finally ushered in a shooting opportunity.

Leverkusen gets a throw-in near the baseline.

Castro threw the ball directly into the penalty area.

The first landing point was hit by Casillas with both fists.

The ball flew out of the penalty area.

On the left edge of the penalty area, the ball fell to Sun Xingmin's feet.

Facing the ball in front of him, Sun Xingmin didn't make any adjustments and shot directly.

The ball Sun Xingmin hit first hit the grass and bounced on the spot.

Unfortunately, the refracted ball did not fly towards the goal, but deviated from the goal.

Leverkusen's attack fell short.

Casillas quickly took the goal kick, and Real Madrid launched a quick counterattack.

The offensive and defensive rhythms of the two sides were very fast. In less than 10 minutes, the two sides had already fought more than a dozen back and forth.

In the 16th minute, Real Madrid got a right corner kick.

The penalty spot is on the edge of the penalty area, only 20 yards from the goal.

Rodriguez takes the free kick.

The penalty spot is very close, and the role of the wall will be extremely important.

God's perspective was opened, and Jose looked for flaws from as many angles as possible.

After confirming that there was no problem, Jose stood in the center of the goal.

A whistle sounded, and Ronaldo started to run.

"Hehe, how can you break the human wall I arranged?" Seeing that Ronaldo chose to volley directly to the upper right corner, the corner of Jose's mouth rose slightly, and he sneered.

Sure enough, although Ronaldo's shot bypassed the wall, it also deviated from the direction of the goal.

Real Madrid wasted such an excellent free kick opportunity.

I don't know if it was because of the missed free kick, Rodriguez actually made a pass error.

Bender succeeded in stealing the ball in the backcourt and directly transferred it to the rib position in the frontcourt, and the ball reached Bella Rabi's feet.

Outside the penalty area, Bella Rabbi shot with his right foot.

It's a pity that the angle was too straight and was directly confiscated by Casillas.

In the first three 10 minutes, although there were a lot of shots from both sides, the absolute scoring opportunities did not appear.

In the 31st minute, Real Madrid scored again.

Rodriguez broke through from the right, dunked Wendell and made a cross.

The ball passed over the small penalty area and fell towards the left side of the penalty area.

On the left side of the small penalty area, Hernandez took the lead in hitting the ball, and he chose to head the ball directly.

The ball flew towards the bottom of the goal.

"Let me do it." Jose suddenly shouted.

It turned out that Jose saw that Hilbert had returned to the defense and rushed to block Hernandez's header.

After Jose shouted, he was worried that Hilbert could not react in time, so he decisively used the first cheat of the game.

The reason why Jose wanted to make a save by himself was to directly confiscate the ball.

Although Hilbert can block the opponent's goal with his body, he cannot control the opponent's second supplementary shot.

Only by completely controlling the ball can the possibility of the opponent's goal be completely eliminated.

When the flow of space and time resumed, people could only see that Jose broke out with superhuman speed, and then leaped forward, steadily confiscating Hernandez's header.

Jose defuses another Real Madrid attack.

In a blink of an eye, the game has come to the 40th minute.

When Castro was defending Isco, he directly brought down the opponent and got the first yellow card of the game.

In addition to giving Real Madrid a free kick on the left, Castro will also be suspended for one game due to accumulated yellow cards.

Ronaldo is responsible for taking the free kick.

The penalty point is about 30 yards from the goal, and Ronaldo has a lot more options to choose from.

Jose knew that at a distance of 30 yards, the effect of the human wall would be greatly reduced.

With the whistle of the referee.

Ronaldo's run-up started.

"Ok?"

Through God's perspective, Jose saw that Ronaldo made an unusual choice.

Ronaldo chose to volley directly to the lower left corner.

This is an extremely smart choice. With a low flat ball at the close corner and the fact that the goalkeeper's line of sight is likely to be affected by the human wall, the threat of volleying the lower left corner is undoubtedly the greatest.

I saw the ball bypassing the foot of the human wall, and then flew towards the lower left corner of the goal.

For ordinary goalkeepers, it is absolutely too late to make a save after seeing the ball come out from behind the wall.

However, Jose saw through Ronaldo's intentions early on through the perspective of God.

His figure flickered, and he was like an eagle, quickly pounced towards the lower left corner of the goal.

In front of the goal line, Jose blocked Ronaldo's shot with one hand and blocked the bottom line.

Jose deflected Ronaldo's free kick and gave Real Madrid a corner kick.

The corner kick was taken without any threat and Jose took it straight from mid-air.

Unfortunately, there is still no chance for a quick counterattack.

In the 44th minute, Real Madrid almost scored a goal.

Sun Xingmin took the ball in the back court and was intercepted, and the ball went to James Rodriguez.

James Rodriguez passed the ball immediately and directly penetrated Leverkusen's defense.

Ronaldo rushed out first and got the chance to face Jose single-handedly.

Facing Ronaldo, who came alone, Jose did not choose to attack. He knew too well that such a top shooter, rashly attacking would only increase his opponent's chances of shooting.

At 10 yards from the penalty area, Ronaldo took a shot, and he chose to volley from a close angle.

The ball quickly rolled towards the lower left corner of the goal.

　I wish everyone a happy Labor Day, and the working people are the most glorious.
