Chapter 1,309, The Penalty Shootout Begins!
Wenger's words were not loud, but after he finished speaking, Morris and Raman were silent.
Yes, without Kim Tiger, how could this England team reach this point?
At this time, they looked at Kim Tiger in the center of the court, and they had only one thought in their minds - I really hope that Kim Tiger can stay in the England national team!
At this time on the court, the England team has decided on the personnel and order of penalty kicks, and the French team is also ready.
Kane and Lowry flip coins to decide the pick.
Lowry won and he chose to shoot the free throw first. England had no choice but to choose the direction of the goal.
In fact, in a penalty shootout, the team taking the last penalty will often be under greater pressure. This time England took a late penalty and it was time to test them.
Before the penalty shootout, both Lori and Pickford received information from the coaches of both teams. They knew the characteristics of their opponents' penalty kicks very well, even before the game. It can be said that there are almost no secrets between the two parties.
The referee briefly explained some rules, and the penalty shootout officially began!
The French team took the penalty first.
Griezmann walked out of the crowd to take the first penalty kick.
Seeing Griezmann play, Jin Taige secretly admired him: His Manchester United favorite is really amazing!
In the game just now, Griezmann missed a penalty kick. If the penalty kick was scored, there would be no overtime and penalty shootout.
He just missed a penalty kick, and now he still has the courage to stand in front of the penalty spot. Griezmann deserves to be the Mr. Golden Ball who ended the Melo era!
Seeing Griezmann in front of him, Pickford smiled slightly, looking very disdainful, and then pointed to the right side of the goal. The meaning of this gesture is obvious, it is to tell Griezmann that he just saved the penalty kick he took at this position.
Griezmann didn't seem to care. After seeing Pickford's action, he also made the same action, pointing to the right side of the goal, as if telling Pickford, I will shoot this later. direction!
"The French team's first penalty kick was taken by Griezmann. Although he just missed the penalty kick, he is still standing in front of the goal with confidence."
"Take a run-up and shoot! The ball flew to the lower right corner of the goal! The ball went in!"
"Pickford rarely pounced in the right direction! But the shot was powerful, heavy and had an extremely awkward angle. He still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net!"
"1-0! France opened the scoring!"
"The first penalty for England was captain Kane."
"Facing Lori, Kane took two steps back and kicked off! He shot towards the center of the goal and the ball went in! Kane was very calm!"
"1 to 1! Both teams hit the first free throw!"
"The second round of penalty kicks began. The second player of the French team was Giroud. In this World Cup, although Giroud only scored one goal, he is still indispensable in the French team's offense. Players. The center tactic gives the French team a fulcrum, more tactical options, and a more layered style of play."
"Giroud took a shot! It went to the upper right corner! The ball went in!"
"2 to 1! The French team is temporarily leading the score!"
"The next England team took the penalty. The second player on the England team was Vardy. As England's starting forward in this cup, Vardy scored two goals and performed very well. Especially against Germany. When we were playing in the team, the wonderful free kick he scored was simply wonderful. It is said that FIFA has now made an internal decision that that goal is the best goal of this cup."
"Vardy, retreat farther, take a slow run... and volley into the upper left corner of the goal! The ball is in!"
"2 to 2! Both sides are back on the same starting line!"
"The penalty shootout continues.
France's third player came on next, Fekir standing in front of the ball. "
"Fekir served as a substitute player for the French team in this cup, and he also performed extremely well in a limited time. His dribbling and pushing abilities are super strong. When the French team cannot open up the situation, his appearance can It changes the situation to a great extent.”
"Fekir took a shot! The ball hit the ground in the middle! The ball went in! This penalty was very easy."
"3 to 2! The French team leads the score again."
"England's third penalty kicker is the young Rashford. This is his first time representing the national team in the World Cup. In limited playing time, Rashford has scored two goals and more. This is a great performance. England's equalizing goal just now was scored by Rashford through his personal ability. Although Rooney was the one who scored the goal, Rashford played an indispensable role."
"He stood in front of the penalty spot, preparing to take the kick. He hit the goal directly without a run-up! The ball went in! The ball quickly penetrated into the lower left corner of the goal! Lori did not make any reaction! Rashford really has a big heart. !”
"3 to 3! The two teams are back on the same starting line again!"
"The fourth member of the French team to take penalty is Dembélé. He is a young talent that Kim Tiger poached to Manchester United. During his loan period at Dortmund, he performed very well. After returning to Manchester United, he gradually became an important offensive player. . However, he stopped training because of his forced transfer to Barcelona, so he had a conflict with Kim Tiger and eventually left Barcelona. His performance in recent years has been good, but he still has not reached the expected level. Compared with Mbappe who has the same trajectory, He became famous earlier than Mbappe, but his strength and professional attitude are far inferior to Mbappe."
"He came on as a substitute for Mbappe to see if he could score a key goal."
"Dembele took a slow run and volleyed into the middle of the penalty area! The ball went in!"
"The French team leads the score 4 to 3! They once again put the pressure on the English team!"
"The fourth player to play in the England team is Rooney. Perhaps Rooney himself never thought before that he would have the opportunity to participate in another World Cup and stand in the final."
"Since Kim Tiger became the interim coach of the England team, the first decision he made was to recall Rooney back to the national team. And all the rumors about the discord between the two have been proven false."
"Rooney's equalizing goal just now is worth a thousand dollars. He helped the England team retain the hope of continuing to move forward. As a substitute for the England team in this cup, Rooney has scored 6 goals! Currently, he and Kane Tied for the top scorer list! The two of them have already become the World Cup Golden Boot winners in advance! Rooney told everyone with his performance that he deserves to wear this England jersey!"
"Facing Lloris, can Rooney score the most crucial goal?"
"Rooney slowly took a run-up and volleyed into the upper left corner of the goal! The ball hit the crossbar!"
