Chapter 1,208: Who Is Playing with Who?

Benzema, who scored the penalty kick, looked very calm. Looking at the cheering Real Madrid fans in the stands, he applauded them. As he walked back, Benzema glanced at the Manchester United side to see who would take the penalty next.

When he saw Mbappe, he was stunned for a moment.

Why is it him?

In the second half of overtime, Marcelo tackled Mbappe from behind, causing the French kid to leave the field injured for a while, but unexpectedly, he returned to the field a few minutes later. At that time, Real Madrid happened to make a substitution, Benzema came on, and he and Mbappe came on at the same time.

Benzema noticed at the time that Mbappe was definitely injured in his right leg, and it was not serious. In the final stage, he was just on the field to make up the numbers, but he didn't expect that he also participated in the penalty shootout?

Benzema has always paid attention to his young juniors in the national team.

After being exposed for blackmailing national team teammate Valbuena** in 205, Benzema has never been selected for the French national team again. Although Benzema has been in good form in the past few seasons, Deschamps is not interested in him, and his name is not included in the latest national team roster.

But Mbappe, the young boy who has emerged from Manchester United, is among the list. And Dembele, who transferred from Manchester United to Barcelona, ​​also got on the flight to Russia.

Although Benzema's loss was due to non-competitive reasons, he still felt unhappy when he saw that his forward position was replaced by Mbappe.

But Mbappe performed very well in this game. After replacing Salah, he created murderous opportunities on the right many times, scored Manchester United's fourth goal, and also caused Marcelo to be sent off. This made Benzema admire this young man with admiration.

But Mbappe was obviously injured, why did he still take this penalty kick?

Is it his own request or the head coach's rigid arrangement?

Benzema didn't know. He stood in the crowd of Real Madrid players, quietly looking at Mbappe not far away, waiting for the result.

Mbappe's appearance made the Manchester United generals sweat. Everyone knows that Mbappe's right leg is injured, and everyone is not at ease about this penalty kick.

Alonso whispered: "Is Killian okay..."

Captain Carrick's eyes were bright: "I believe in Killian, he will definitely be able to score this penalty!"

Mbappe placed the ball twice in a row before slowly standing up.

He looked at Navas in front of him and bit his lip gently.

Seeing Mbappe like this, Navas knew in his heart: This young man is very nervous now!

You can see it from the way he keeps placing the ball, to his now somewhat pale face.

At this time Navas suddenly smiled at Mbappe.

At such a tense moment, he suddenly made this move, which made Mbappé stunned for a moment.

Then, Navas suddenly pointed to the left side of his body and nodded towards Mbappe.

His meaning is obvious: I know you want to shoot this corner! Come if you have the ability! I can definitely save it!

Navas thought to himself: Mbappé will probably not dare to shoot this corner for a while. He will probably shoot in the opposite direction, so I will pounce in the opposite direction.

This move stunned Mbappe! His personal habit is indeed to shoot this angle!

So how should I play next?

Mbappe slowly retreated,

There was some hesitation in my mind.

But just for a moment, his eyes suddenly became firm. Even if I shoot at this angle, you still can't prevent it! If you have the ability, try it!

Mbappe stood there, he pointed in the same direction as Navas just now, and then started to run!

Navas was also stunned!

What's the meaning? Did he mean to shoot at this spot? do you mean this?

So where should I save it?

In an instant, Navas did not hesitate. He decisively chose the left side of his body, which was the direction he pointed just now!

French boy, I'll bet on your youthfulness today!

"What are Mbappe and Navas playing? They are pointing in the same direction. Did they agree to shoot in that direction?"

"Mbappé runs and shoots! The ball hits the center! The ball goes in!!!"

"The two of them just played for a long time, thinking about the lower right corner of the goal for a long time. In the end, Navas kept his promise, but Mbappe changed his mind!"

"Navas stretched his body completely and his fingertips were almost touching the goal post! But Mbappe's shot went straight to the center, so neatly!"

"No one expected that in just a moment, the experienced veteran Navas was played by Mbappe, who is less than 20 years old!"

The moment the shot hit the net, Mbappe turned around, raised his hands in the air, laughed and ran towards his teammates! His teammates also hugged him.

"Killian, you're great!" Carrick rubbed his head happily.

Alonso also patted him hard on the shoulder: "Some people were worried about whether you could score just now, but I wasn't worried! I told them just now, you will be fine! Hahahaha!"

Griezmann kicked Alonso from behind: "You just talked too much..."

Alonso smiled broadly: "I wasn't nervous just now, hahahaha!"

Navas was a little depressed when he took the ball out of the net.

I didn’t expect that I would be played by such a little brat today!

At this time, the fourth Real Madrid player Hazard came up and patted Navas on the shoulder: "Man, there is an element of luck in penalty kicks. It's not your fault. Don't mind it too much. We will definitely be able to do it." win!"

Navas' mood gradually calmed down and he nodded: "It's your turn next, come on."

Hazard looked confident: "I have a lot of experience in dealing with De Gea. We often played against each other in the Premier League. Although he reacted quickly, his ability to save penalty kicks and long-range shots was average. I am sure to score." !”

Navas nodded, and when he saw Hazard's expression, he knew that he had secured the ball.

Facing De Gea, Hazard looked at him for a few seconds. The two have played against each other too many times in the Premier League, and now that they meet again, Hazard has no special feeling, but De Gea has a special thought.

It’s better to see Hazard wearing a blue uniform...

"Next is Real Madrid's fourth penalty kicker, Hazard. He and De Gea are old acquaintances. Will this ball be saved by De Gea?"

"Hazard retreated slowly, accelerated his run-up, and decisively volleyed!"

"It's the lower right corner! The ball was saved by De Gea!"

"The ball still went in! De Gea's finger had touched the ball just now, but Hazard's shot was so powerful and heavy that he flicked off De Gea's finger and got into the net!"

"4 to 3! Real Madrid made all four free throws and are temporarily in the lead!"
