Hero of the Penalty Area

The eighty-eighth chapter dedicated this game to Platini (the first guarantee)

The score behind 2:3 scared Lyon, because it means they will be eliminated...

The chairman of the Lyon club, Olas, sat on the podium dejectedly. He originally thought it would be easy to win this game at his home court, but he didn't know why Naples suddenly went crazy. , I can't stop it.

Platini, who was sitting next to him, had no expression on his face, as if the outcome of Naples and Lyon had nothing to do with him.

No one knows what his heart has become like gritted teeth...

Slap in the face, slap in the face, slap in the face naked.

There were five full minutes of stoppage time in this game, which caused some dissatisfaction with Mazzari. The referee team naturally has their reasons, because the referee came out in a coma and was delayed a little while changing the referee.

Mazzari had already made substitutions before then. Cassano added a central defender.

He made another substitution in stoppage time. This time the substitution is purely a delay in the game.

Arshavin, who was replaced, deliberately walked down the court slowly. When a Lyon player expressed dissatisfaction, he trot a few steps, then raised his hands and applauded, and hugged and shook hands with his teammates passing by.

When he slowly "moved" off the field, there was already a deafening boo on the Gerland stadium-Lyon fans thought he was delaying the game on purpose.

Arshavin did not go directly to the bench, but after embracing coach Mazzari, he walked to the sidelines. There, his teammates have formed a team side by side, arm in arm, waiting for the referee to sound a whistle, so they can rush to the court to celebrate.

Although they only lead by one ball, they will be told that "only one ball ahead is the most dangerous score in the world", but at this moment, they are surprisingly confident, thinking that Lyon will not be able to equalize the score, and victory will be a glorious victory. Tenacious Naples!

After experiencing this game, they have never been so confident-even Platini can't do anything to us, that's a shame!

Chen Yingxiong was not replaced in advance. He was still on the court, fully displaying his heading ability and physical fitness to the fullest.

As long as Naples gets the ball in the backcourt defense, it is a big kick to the front, and then Chen Yingxiong uses his body to protect the football and delay the game.

If there is only one person, it is not easy to grab the ball from his feet. Generally speaking, Lyon needs more than two players to be able to break the football. And it had to be... a suspected foul action.

However, at this time, the referee basically stopped blowing fouls in this situation.

The players in Naples didn't care about raising their hands to protest to the referee. They had to defend first. But it can't happen again when the first goal was lost in the first half.

This kind of defensive pressure is actually great, because your opponent is not just the eleven Lyon players, but also the referee team. No one knows if the referee will find a chance to give a penalty at the last moment... They believe that the referee can really do it.

So Naples is very cautious when defensive, and sometimes even prefers to prevent the opponent from turning around and then block frontally, rather than stretching his legs behind the back.

If the opposing team fell down, it would be a foul.

Despite the great pressure, Naples held on!

When the injury time reached six minutes, Mazzari rushed to the sidelines, raised his arm high, and raised his other hand to point to the watch on his wrist. In this way, he reminded the referee-- Time is up!

"The game is over! The game should be over!" The commentators in Italy and Naples were shouting, as if they could remind the coach by shouting like this.

At this time, the Lyon team was still launching an offense. They launched an offense from the backcourt and passed to the frontcourt. At this time, the sixth minute of injury time has already passed, and it stands to reason that the time has passed. But it seems that the referee wants to include the time for substitutions in stoppage time for Naples, and make up together... But despite this, time has passed.

The Naples substitute players raised their arms on the sidelines and protested dissatisfiedly.

The referee turned a blind eye and wanted Lyon to finish the attack. Maybe he scored a goal in this attack?

At this time, Chen Yingxiong was pulled back into the penalty area, so Leon's attack was unimpeded, and he rushed directly into the 30-meter area.

Facing the overcrowded penalty zone, Lyon chose the simplest method-passing from the bottom to the middle.

Chen Yingxiong's defensive ability is actually terrible, but the header happens to be what he is best at...

Lyon kicked the ball from the wing and the football flew into the penalty area. It was not pushed by any Lyon player. Instead, Chen Yingxiong shook his head and directed the football to the sideline.

"Now you **** blow the whistle!" Mazzari shouted angrily off the court.

Finally, he heard the referee's whistle, three times! This is the whistle for the end of the game!

"The game is over-the game is over!" the Italian commentator yelled.

"We are number one in the group!" The Naples commentator shouted Yang Tian with his arms high.

Arshavin, Cassano and other substitute players swarmed into the stadium, turning the Gerland Stadium into a paradise for them to celebrate.

Naples defeated the mighty Lyon at the Gerland Stadium and took the first place in the group.

Anyone who has watched this game will probably not think it is a normal game.

Many people think that Naples is defeated because their opponents are too strong...

But who would have thought that the one who celebrated with a smile in the end was indeed a visiting team player from Naples?

As soon as the game ended, Platini hurriedly left the rostrum of the Gerland Stadium with a gloomy face and disappeared from everyone's vision.

In fact, he already knew the result of the other game. Over there, Liverpool evened the score at the last minute, so even if Lyon lost the ball, he defeated Zenit St. Petersburg by one point and took second place in the group. The right to qualify is saved.

Zenit can only play in the UEFA Cup.

For Lyon, this should be a good result, and for Platini, who wants to make Lyon qualify, it should also be a good result.

But Platini just couldn't laugh, because his face...was swollen in this game...

My own arrangement is so secure that it will be a bad thing for a crazy team!

And... they also pointed the finger at themselves.

In this game, because of the unexpectedly strong resistance and non-cooperation of Naples, the referee problem became the focus of everyone's attention. After the game, those media must have something to say. Now I have to figure out how to suppress the voice of the media...

The dignified UEFA president is so embarrassed, and all this is to blame... Naples, and the No. 9 Chen hero of Naples!

Hero Chen, who was resented by Platini, was being interviewed in the mixed zone at this time.

"I'm very happy to be able to win this game. Because this game is too difficult to play, our opponent is definitely not the eleven of Lyon! As for what other opponents? I think you have seen it, so there is no need Did I say more?"

"It's very nice to win the game, and it's also very happy to be the top scorer. But none of these is more happier than I can score two goals in such a difficult game."

"Hero, your second ball request seems to have nothing to do with it?" a reporter asked.

Chen Yingxiong, who was still smiling, scrambled his face, and said seriously: "That's my signature celebration move-reporters who often report on Serie A know it. I know that Mr. Platini has also come to watch the game, so When I got excited, I paid tribute to Chairman Platini. I want to dedicate that goal to Chairman Platini. I want to dedicate the victory of this game to Chairman Platini. I think he must be very happy. Yes. Because I want to thank him. It was him who came to watch the game and inspired our team. It made me motivated and able to beat Lyon. It was all because Chairman Platini came to watch the game and cheer for us. During the break, we vowed not to disappoint Mr. Platini who came to watch the game. So our performance in the second half was very good... You know, I have been an admirer of Mr. Platini since I was a child, and I can have this opportunity to play It’s really an honor for me to show our strength in front of him..."

The more you talk about Chen Yingxiong, the more you lose track. The reporter who interviewed him really thought at first that Chen Yingxiong was going to dedicate this ball and this victory to Platini. After I heard it, I found out... Nima, this is completely ironic, okay!

After hearing Chen Yingxiong's remarks, the Napoli players who were interviewed by other reporters nearby had a hard time suffocating a smile.

When they all finished the interview, they were able to laugh happily.

A group of people walked around Chen Yingxiong into his locker room.

"You can blow too much, hero! I was almost fooled by you at first!"

"I went to Egypt to shoot a commercial, I found that your acting skills are getting better, hero..."

"I was thinking, what would Platini's expression look like after hearing these words?"

Hero Chen smiled: "It must be wonderful!"

Everyone laughed, their laughter echoing in the player tunnel, mocking the person who had left dingy.

In the press conference after the game, Mazzari did not talk about refereeing, his mind has cooled down. He knows that his team wants to mix in Europe, so he can't offend UEFA. They have already slapped Platini severely in this game. He doesn't know whether Chairman Platini is kind and hearted. If he is slapped, he can ignore the predecessors. He dare not take his entire team. To bet on the character of Chairman Platini.

Anyway, they won the game and got the first place in the group. There is no need to hold on to this issue. Players can say something more grudge, but he is the head coach, he can not talk nonsense, this will hurt his team.

When reporters asked about the referee's performance and the controversial penalties, Mazzari changed his angry performance in the game, but shrugged and shook his head: "The referee often has problems, but it's no fuss. This is no fuss. It's just ordinary misjudgments, but unfortunately, all these misjudgments were concentrated in the game between us and Lyon, and it happened that they were all against us... but it has passed, so far. The most important thing is us. The most important thing is to qualify first in the group."

Puel said at the press conference that he was very satisfied with being able to qualify from the group.

"It doesn't make sense to be second in the group or first in the group. The first in the group may not be smooth, and the second in the group may not be able to go further. I think it depends on the state of the team, not your group ranking... …"

When a reporter asked him about the referee, he also chose to be cautious.

"I don't know, maybe the referee's penalty is indeed questionable, but I think it is the job of the UEFA referee committee, not mine. I have been admonishing my players not to judge the referee. I I have to do the same."

Although both head coaches chose to avoid talking about the head referee's issues, the media knew very well that after the game, the head referee's issues would definitely not be able to escape, and many media would discuss it.

At that time, it depends on what kind of explanation Platini can give...
