Chapter 166 Penalty Shootout
In the second half of overtime, because of Zidan's cramps, Dortmund was actually equivalent to one less player in the game. ??
At the last moment of the game, Dortmund got a good chance.
Gotze accidentally scored a one-handed goal in the penalty area!
"Götze! Good chance! Dortmund will have the chance to beat the Offenbach kicker!"
Before the commentator finished speaking, Zhou Yi saw that Sun Pan was like a leopard pounced on its prey, and with his vigorous body, he threw himself down in front of Getce.
Goetze obviously didn't expect Sun Pan to pounce so quickly, he froze for a moment, and then hastily shot.
The football hit Sun Pan's chest and was sent flying.
"Sun!! Ahh!!!" The narrator exclaimed, his voice distorted. "This is really... unbelievable! When he rushed over, Gotze was obviously taken aback... He kicked his feet hastily, and naturally he was not accurate... At the most critical moment, Sun saved the team again! His performance in this game can definitely score the highest score, no flaws!"
Sun Pan, who saved Goetze's goal, got up from the ground and was surrounded by his teammates, as if he had just saved Goetze's penalty...
The entire Bibere Borg stadium was chanting one man's name.
"Sun! Sun! Sun!!"
This substitute player who was still with the drinking fountain in the team before suddenly became the big star of this stadium!
"very impressive……"
Yang Muge, who witnessed this scene, typed a sentence in the group.
Zhou Yi didn't reply to him, but now he was starting to worry about the next penalty shootout.
Dortmund's goalkeeper is Weidenfeller. Weidenfeller is certainly an excellent goalkeeper, but Zhou Yi feels that Sun Pan may be even better at this moment.
He knows Sun Pan very well. Sun Pan is a crazy goalkeeper. The more difficult the game is, the stronger the opponent is, the better his performance will be. And once he is in good form, he is almost invincible, and you will deeply doubt who else in this world can break his goal...
Dortmund now spent a full 120 minutes. Thirty-nine shots completely stimulated Sun Pan's state.
Then the next penalty shootout...
Zhou Yi simply didn't want to watch it.
Looking at the performance of his teammates, I'm afraid they don't even have confidence in themselves.
Sun Pan saved his last shot, Gotze put his head in his hands, his face full of bewilderment. Looking at Sun Pan, and then looking back at the football that was cleared, I couldn't believe my eyes.
The other Dortmund players also had dumbfounded expressions on their faces, and they couldn't imagine why this would be the result.
Mark, Shinji Kagawa... These players who shined at Meazza now look like they are in a mess at the humble Bibere Borg Stadium.
And just after the ball was thrown. The referee blew the whistle to end the 120-minute game!
"The extra time is over! The two sides have finished:! This game will enter the most brutal penalty shootout!" No matter how the voice of the commentator sounds a little gloating, there is also a faint expectation...
But at this time Zhou Yi has no time to care about the commentator's mentality.
When the coaches of the two sides arranged the penalty list, the camera lens was firmly aimed at Sun Pan, and the close-up was still close-up.
In the special shot, Sun Pan is sitting on the court surrounded by his teammates. A substitute player came up and patted him on the back, then gave him a thumbs up, and some people gave him high fives.
Sun Pan's face is now full of that kind of bright and somewhat smug smile.
But this is what people deserve...
The commentator is constantly introducing the hero of the Offenbach kicker to the audience, using statistics to tell the audience how awesome he is.
"...In this game, Dortmund had a total of 39 shots. This is an amazing statistic, but what about Offenbach's side? There were only four shots, and two of them hit the goal frame. What about Dortmund's side Twenty-one of the thirty-nine shots hit the goal frame, and the number of goals...zero! All twenty-one shots were thrown by Sun! It’s incredible! Although Offenbach kicked the whole team The performances are all very good, but without Sun, it is absolutely impossible for them to survive the bombardment of Dortmund to this moment... Now that the two teams have come to a penalty shootout, we have more reason to look forward to the young man The goalkeeper's performance!"
※※※
The two sides quickly completed the list of penalty shooters, and then reported to the referee team.
Both sides then guess the coin to decide who kicks first.
In the end, the Offenbach kicker qualified to kick first.
Weidenfeller stood in front of the door. Sun Pan stood far outside the bottom line.
The first player kicked by Offenbach Kickers was their striker Kai Hesse, who positioned the football and took a few steps back. After the referee's whistle sounded, he ran up. Then kick and shoot!
The football flew to the upper right corner of the goal, and although Weidenfeller judged the right direction, the distance was still too far away, and he could not touch it. Soccer hits the net!
"Offenbach kicker first hits the penalty! Now the score is 1:!"
There was a burst of cheers from the stands.
This is a penalty shootout. In this kind of duel, the gap between the two sides, whether it is the individual players or the overall strength, has been narrowed very close. It's close to the point where it's completely possible to fight hand to hand.
This kind of bayonet-like competition relies not on outstanding skills, but on courage and will.
Whoever is afraid first will die, and whoever is less afraid of death can live to the end.
Now it seems that the players of Offenbach Kicker are obviously not afraid of death.
Jesse gave a celebratory fist pump and ran back to the center circle. As the first person to take a penalty kick, he has to bear tremendous pressure. Generally, the player with the best penalty kick level will be selected to kick the ball.
Hesse has completed his task, now it is Sun Pan's turn to play.
Hummels was the first to take a penalty on Dortmund's side.
Sun Pan stood in front of the door, opened his hands, and instead of standing obediently, he twisted his buttocks. He was provoking Hummels, it was a psychological tactic.
However, Hummels was not confused by him. Instead, he pushed the football calmly and pushed the football to the lower right corner. Sun Pan even misjudged the direction and the football rolled into the goal.
"nice shot!"
Hummels didn't even look at the clown-like Sun Pan, turned around and ran back.
And Sun Pan got up from the ground. Quietly leave the goal and give the stage to Weidenfeller.
When he passed by Weidenfeller, Weidenfeller turned to him and said: "Don't twist around like an idiot, that trick won't work for us!"
One game down. Sun Pan blocked Dortmund's shots countless times, dragging the game into a penalty shootout. Originally, such a performance could win the admiration of the opponent, but Sun Pan is not the kind of goalkeeper who honestly catches the opponent's shot and is over. After blocking Dortmund's shot, he will use various exaggerated moves to provoke opponent.
For example, after he blocked a shot from a Dortmund player. Shaking his fingers, signaling that the other party can't do it, it's exactly the same as the nb basketball player Dikembe Mutombo's action after he blocked someone else's cap.
Or when a Dortmund player improves a shot, he looks up at the sky and blows a whistle.
Any fool knows what that means.
So the Dortmund players were not only suffocated because the game was dragged into a penalty shootout, but also very upset with Sun Pan because of his provocative actions.
Now that it's a penalty shootout, Weidenfeller really can't stand it anymore if he still does it like this.
As a result, Sun Pan walked past him without any response...
I don't know if I didn't hear it, or didn't understand it, or if I heard it and understood it. But don't want to respond.
※※※
In the next second round of penalty kicks, the Offenbach kicker also hit. Weidenfeller still judged the right direction, but failed to touch the ball.
This happened twice in a row, which also made Weidenfeller a little upset. He beat the ground hard before getting up.
Next, it was Dortmund who took the penalty.
Sun Pan continued to dance his ass on the goal line.
The second player to take the penalty was Shinji Kagawa. He was not affected by Sun Pan either, and hit with one kick.
Sun Pan judged the wrong direction again.
After two rounds of penalty kicks, both sides scored, and the score was 2:2.
"Dortmund's players performed quite well in the penalty shootout, as if they were not affected by the previous ones. And Sun's miraculous performance seems to have disappeared. He even misjudged the direction of two consecutive penalty kicks..." said the commentator.
※※※
In the third round of penalty kicks, Offenbach Kickers defender Teixeira came up to take the penalty. Weidenfeller judged the wrong direction this time-he jumped to the right, but Teixeira's shot flew to the right. In the middle!
"Good goal! Offenbach Kicker is now leading 3:2!"
The third player on Dortmund's side is Gotze.
After he sets the football. He backed up and looked up, and found that Sun Pan was not standing in front of the goal line and twisting his buttocks, but... standing a little off.
Basically, the goalkeeper will stand at the midpoint of the goal when he shoots a penalty kick, so that the distance is the same no matter which side he shoots.
But not all goalkeepers will position according to this principle, some goalkeepers like to stand a little bit biased.
This was nothing at all, but what made Goetze feel a surge of anger was... Sun Pan was standing on the left. He also pointed his finger to the right, which meant to let Gotze kick that way!
This is simply a naked provocation!
Give up more than half of the space, and then tell the shooter to kick into the open space... Isn't this contemptuous?
Gotze was furious.
He hasn't completely lost his composure, though.
He stared at Sun Pan's hand pointing to the right.
He understands what this means, so is he playing psychological warfare on himself?
Deliberately let the right side out, so that it seems that the right side has more space and is easier to shoot. Because it looks like the goalkeeper has set a trap on the right, tricking the forward into deliberately shooting to the right, and then going to the right himself - logically.
This is a very low level trap.
Adding a layer of camouflage on top of this trap, the goalkeeper pretends to let the shooter shoot to the right, but in fact he is going to shoot to the left, because the striker will think a little more - people are so generous Let the right side out, will there be a conspiracy? There must be a conspiracy! The opponent must be holding back his energy and wanting to pounce to the right. At this time, you have to do the opposite and shoot to the left, but the goalkeeper is waiting on the left!
This is actually the psychological warfare between the goalkeeper and the shooter.
Battle of wits and courage.
Now that Gotze has seen what Sun Pan wants to do, then he knows where to think.
Aren't you pretending to make me cum on the right?
OK, shoot right then!
So he ran up, kicked up, and the straight instep hit the football, and the football flew to the right of the goal!
And almost at the same time he shot, Sun Pan, who was standing on the left, suddenly strode across to the right, and then jumped up!
He also jumped to the right!
As if an eagle soaring high found its prey, it quickly swooped down and rushed towards the prey on the ground at a fast speed.
The same is true for Sun Pan, but he is flying up from the ground!
His left hand stretched out in the air, like the claws of an eagle, waving towards the football!
With a snap, his finger hit the football that was kicked up by Gotze and flew to the upper right corner of the goal!
The football changed course and flew out of the goal!
"He threw it!!!" the narrator screamed. (To be continued.)
