Volume 1: Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 123: The Two-and-a-Half-Game Goal Drought Is Broken! (Fifth Update, Please Vote for Me!!)

Bet on the guaranteed ***!

Black feed the dog! Cheek is making trouble! Verbs are tense, verbs are tense, verbs are tense! Yo yo!

When the football flew high over the head of the wall and then fell into the net, the stands of St. James Park...oh no, the Sports Direct Stadium were silent.

But the silence did not last long, almost only a second or two.

Soon someone exclaimed.

"Leaf ball!!"

When Chen Yingxiong's football flew over the wall, its flight trajectory was directly upward. If it continues to fly like this, it will definitely be higher than the crossbar and then fly into the stands behind the goal.

But just when everyone thought the ball was hit high, the football suddenly dropped and plunged into the goal.

This is the typical characteristic of fallen leaves!

Chen Yingxiong once scored a free kick against Manchester City, but strictly speaking, it was not a goal because he changed direction on the horizontal line, not vertically like this ball. Changed direction.

Krul fell from the air and rolled on the ground twice before getting up. The first thing he did was to look back at the goal. The moment just happened so fast that he didn't see clearly that the football was flying in against the crossbar. He hit the goal, but still missed the crossbar and flew out of the goal...

He saw the football lying quietly on the ground in the goal.

※※※

When the football flew into the goal, Chen Yingxiong opened his arms and looked up to the sky and screamed.

I can finally make this weapon official!

The excited teammates around him rushed forward and hugged him tightly.

"Oh - hero! Hero! Hero!! He broke his own... A commentator said in his heart that a goal drought must be called a goal drought only if he doesn't score for a long time, right? So, right? He added the modifier "long" to the goal drought, but when he said the word, he realized that Chen Yingxiong's goal drought... didn't seem to last long? It was just a visit to Queen's Park. It’s just two games against Wigan Athletic and this half-game against Newcastle United…

Fortunately, the commentator has a quick wit and immediately figured out what he should say.

"Uh...two and a half games...a goal drought! Yes, for other players, two and a half games without scoring is nothing. But for a hero, two and a half games without scoring is nothing. What a big thing! It was a big enough event to make headlines! But now, these problems no longer exist, because the hero scored a goal! And it was a beautiful free kick! We don’t know if the free kick was his It doesn’t matter how many people get in, as long as the football gets in, that’s fine!”

The commentator finally rounded up the topic... He secretly wiped his sweat.

Dalglish also rushed from the coaching bench with his arms raised after Chen Yingxiong scored, waving his fists vigorously.

His excitement was unabashed. Just like he never hides that his team has "hero dependence syndrome"... If Chen Yingxiong can score goals, it means that he is really normal. He has nothing to worry about next, just business as usual .

※※※

When Chen Yingxiong scored, it was not just the head coach Dalglish who was relieved, but also the players who supported him and the Chinese commentators.

Chen Yingxiong's poor performance in these two games has attracted the attention of many domestic football fans and media. Everyone also wants to know what caused his decline.

Chen Yingxiong has become the spiritual totem of Chinese football fans. If he performs well, everyone will be happy; if he performs poorly, many people will be worried about him.

Now when Chen Yingxiong blasted the football into the Newcastle goal, the fans in front of the TV and computer all jumped up, waving their fists and cheering for Chen Yingxiong.

"It's normal! The hero is finally normal!"

"Big Bear is so awesome!"

※※※

After cheering for Chen Yingxiong's goal, the commentators gradually began to calm down. Although Chen Yingxiong's goal was wonderful, it... was just a trick.

"I have never heard that Chen Yingxiong is good at free kicks before, so Liverpool are really lucky with this ball. The hero actually scored with the first kick..."

"He once scored a beautiful free kick against Manchester City. Going back a little further, when he was playing for Naples, he also scored a free kick against Inter Milan. He also scored a free kick against Manchester United in the Champions League semi-final. There seems to be one in the final... Counting this, there are only four free kicks in his career. It cannot be said that he is good at free kicks anyway, so Chen Yingxiong is really lucky!"

Newcastle players and fans also see it this way.

"Damn! What a piece of luck!" The Newcastle fans in the stands were a little unhappy about losing the ball.

"Originally, this ball should have been missed directly..." Newcastle players also discussed the lost ball together.

"But who knows..."

"Is this the fallen leaf ball?"

"What kind of fallen leaf ball is a blind ball! He is just blind. Do you think he can really kick such a ball? How can a ball of this difficulty be so easy to master? I have never heard that he can kick any ball. The balls are all méng..."

※※※

Chen Yingxiong didn't know what his opponents and commentators were talking about him. His teammates are celebrating with him. Maybe the whole world will think that Chen Yingxiong got in blindly, but the Liverpool players will not see it that way. They know very well that they all see Chen Yingxiong's extra training during this period. There are many players who have extra training, and they have seen it before, but who has seen such hard extra training?

Very few people would practice for an extra hour, and it was still like this every day, rain or shine. It's rainy in the UK. Even if it rains, Chen Yingxiong will insist on practicing for an extra hour, which makes everyone admire his perseverance.

For a player who can persevere and work hard, even if his talent is extraordinary, if he doesn't work hard, he probably won't succeed.

So they were not surprised at all that Chen Yingxiong could score such a beautiful free kick.

Because it's a given!

Suarez slapped Chen Yingxiong's generous back and shouted, "Thank you, master, for your careful cultivation!"

Chen Yingxiong gave him the middle finger: "Bah!"

※※※

Although a goal was conceded, Newcastle people did not take it seriously.

Apart from this free kick, Liverpool still don't have any good opportunities. Moreover, this is still at their home court. Do you understand the home field advantage?

It wasn't until sixteen minutes later...that their view changed.

Sixteen minutes later, Suarez was once again pushed to the ground outside the penalty area. The referee blew the whistle again and awarded Liverpool a frontcourt free kick.

This free kick was a bit wider than the one kicked by Chen Yingxiong before.

Although Chen Yingxiong scored a free kick just sixteen minutes ago, this did not attract enough attention. He must have been méng. Since he was a méng, how could he still be méng into it? Maybe he won't even take the kick.

But they thought wrong. Chen Yingxiong stood at the penalty spot holding the football.

※※※

In fact, when Chen Yingxiong blasted the football into the Newcastle goal, Charlie Adam knew that his right to take the free kick had changed hands.

He knows very well that Chen Yingxiong's ability to score goals is definitely not due to luck. He sees Chen Yingxiong's extra training every day in the team.

In fact, he should have been prepared for this as early as during training...but luck and unwillingness kept him delayed until now.

When a free kick came, he didn't take it.

Chen Yingxiong picked up the football and looked back at him, as if asking for his opinion - Do you want to play rock, paper, scissors again? Of course he was not asking whether Charlie Adam should be punished. Chen Yingxiong would never give up the opportunity to others.

When Charlie Adam looked back at him, he made a "come here" gesture to him.

There is no more contention.

He has already scored two direct free kicks this season, what about himself? None. Why are you arguing with others?

When Chen Yingxiong saw that Charlie Adam had directly given it to him, he was not polite and put the football on the ground, and once again stepped away to prepare to take the penalty.

The narrator then realized something was wrong.

"This ball... will the hero kick it?"

"Didn't he méng the last ball...Why come again? Could he still méng it?"

"I never heard that he can take free kicks..."

"The hero once again stood in front of the football, and he was ready to take the free kick..."

The Newcastle wall was also stunned - why was it still him?

Thinking of the football flying over their heads just now, someone said: "Let's jump as high as possible this time!"

"Even if he can score the first one, he can't score the second! How can a free kick be so easy to score? Let alone two in one game!" Newcastle players cheered each other on in the wall. .

It has to be said that their judgment is correct based on common sense. It is indeed difficult to score goals with free kicks, and the scoring rate is very low. It is a great achievement to score one free kick in a game, let alone score twice with free kicks.

Why Mihajlovic's free kick hat trick is still talked about today is because it is very difficult to score three free kicks in one game - a hat trick itself is a difficult task It's a big thing, let alone completing a hat trick with a more difficult free kick... It seems that the free kick seems to be very simple, because no one interferes, but there is a wall blocking it. Football must ensure that it bypasses the wall, and also It is not that difficult to fly into the goal accurately without being stopped by the goalkeeper. The most difficult part of a free kick is "accuracy". To ensure that the football bypasses the wall and goes into the goal, the control of the football must be very, very precise.

No one thought that Chen Yingxiong, a big boss, could control the football so accurately. The free kick before must have been amazing. Amateur players are also capable of playing world-class games. Can we say that they are already world-class? Only a free kick master must be able to score goals stably. Otherwise, can any player who scores a few free kicks in his career be considered a free kick master? Then this master is too worthless...

So even if Chen Yingxiong stood in front of the football and put on a posture of "I want to take the penalty," no one believed that he could still score. What surprised everyone was that he actually took the penalty again, seemingly becoming Liverpool's top free kicker...

Adam, the original free kick taker, still didn't wave his hand. It seems that Chen Yingxiong is on the way to becoming Liverpool's "ball tyrant"...! .
