Chapter 689 The Lion King ([-])

At the Bayer Arena, more than 2 spectators entered the field early and waited. Leverkusen’s team song echoed from time to time. The fans are cheering for their team. They naturally hope that their team can play Defeat No. 04 Schalke 1 at home, even if they have no hope of winning the championship, as long as they can beat No.[-], they will be very happy.

Their lineup is exactly what Magath expected, so Schalke feels that there should be no problem winning this game. After all, they have already figured it out and made corresponding preparations. If there is a problem again, it is too unreasonable.

Ai Huan's mood seemed very relaxed, and he was not disturbed by the previous messy news at all, which also made Magath very relieved, so the whole team had a kind of blind optimism.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Leverkusen showed an aggressive posture from the beginning of the game. The main players of Erke seem to be a little bit out of shape, so after being overwhelmed by others, they really can't find a way to fight back.

In the 4th minute, Leverkusen won the first corner kick. Reinhardt's header from the corner kick was slightly wide.In the 8th minute, Schalke defender Hovides made a mistake in the return pass, and Sam got a single-handed chance. Fortunately, Neuer reacted quickly and miraculously saved the football. Ballack, who got the ball outside the penalty area, had not had time to shoot. , was brought down by Metzelder, and they got a free kick again.

Leverkusen took a free kick from the right and entered the penalty area. Ballack leaped high and shook his head to attack the goal. Neuer flew again to rescue. No. In the 11th minute, Ballack received a direct pass from his teammate from the left and made a pass from the bottom. Neuer picked the ball up.Neuer still kicked off the ball vigorously at the first time, driving the football near the midfield. Ai Huan charged forward quickly and controlled the ball before the opposing player.

The Leverkusen players immediately came to stop them, but after the first few games, Ai Huan used himself to attract the opponent's attention and then passed the ball to create a killer move, so although they paid attention to the forward Ai Huan, they still maintained a good formation.

After Ai Huan took two feet, he really passed the ball. This time, the goal of the pass was Jurado, and when the attention of the opposing defender shifted to Jurado, Jurado had already passed the ball quickly. Of course, there is still the direction of Ai Huan's progress.

Ai Huan's relaxed ball continued to move forward, and this pass had already completely left Leverkusen's midfielder behind, but Ai Huan passed the ball again, and Holtby got the ball with his back to the opponent's goal Then, without even thinking for a second, heeled the football into the Leverkusen penalty area.

Everything is suffocating, and all Leverkusen players feel a little lost, but the problem is that the opponent's offense does not mean to stop at all, but intensifies. Don't look at Leverkusen's pressure from the beginning to now. The other party couldn't even breathe, but they also knew very well that as long as Ai Huan started to run, it would be their turn to be breathless.

Ai Huan rushed into the opponent's penalty area at this moment. Lahm, who had been standing still, saw a figure sweeping away from him and involuntarily stretched out his hand to grab the opponent's jersey. He didn't know this position Ai Huan's free kick will also become a sharp weapon for Ai Huan to score, but he still reached out.

But when his body was pulled out backwards, he also began to feel a little desperate. This bastard was as strong as all the rumors and had nothing to say. What should he do in the face of this kind of person?

Ai Huan didn't stop for a long time. At this moment, he ignored any defense. All he could see was the rolling football. He kicked and shot, and his movements were done in one go. In the dead corner on the upper left of Leverkusen's goal, the field was instantly quiet, and only the cheers from the Schalke expedition fans could be heard, and the score on the field became one to zero.

The referee didn't turn a blind eye to Lahm's actions, so he showed Lahm a yellow card after pointing to the center circle. Lahm, who was lying on the ground, was a little dazed, as if he didn't even see the yellow card, completely It's a look of despair.

Ai Huan immediately ran to the sidelines to celebrate the goal with the fans of the Expeditionary Corps. From the analysis of past records, as long as Ai Huan scores first, Schalke will win the game, so the people in the Expeditionary Corps are also extremely happy .

This goal was a bit of a blow to Leverkusen, at least it made them a little dazed for a short period of time, so Schalke immediately recovered after the conceded goal and launched an attack on the opponent's goal.

After Leverkusen kicked off, the ball was directly intercepted by Matip in the midfield, and then quickly passed to the frontcourt Pukki and passed the ball to Escudero who broke into the penalty area from the right. Dele blocked the ball, Schwapp made a clearance in front of the goal line and drove the ball out of the penalty area.

Jurado sent a corner kick, and Raul headed the goal in the gap between the two opposing players, but the strength was weak and the opponent's goalkeeper firmly grasped it in his arms.

However, Leverkusen is still a solid team after all. Many of them have experienced many battles, so they quickly recovered their mentality and launched a counterattack. After breaking into the penalty area, he volleyed with his right foot from the near corner. Neuer volleyed sideways and blocked the football out of the penalty area in the air. The fiery Ballack suddenly appeared outside the penalty area. He swung past Matip's tackle first, and then volleyed vigorously. The football pierced straight into Schalke's like a spear. Among the goals, one to one.

The fans off the field immediately erupted in addition to the thunderous cheers. This goal came too timely, and their captain Ballack did it.

"Barack! Our eternal captain!" The live commentary shouted hoarsely, and his shout also led to more cheers.

Ai Huan, who returned from the front court, pulled up Matip who was thrown to the ground. The black boy looked at Ai Huan with a bit of resentment. Ai Huan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "It's not bad, don't forget That's Barak, and even a very old lion is still a lion!"

Ballack is indeed a lion. He has never put himself in another position in his heart. Even if he has entered the twilight years of his football career at this time, he will never show weakness to anyone.
