Chapter 929
Yang Yang bent down, gently placed the football on the turf, and stepped around the football a few times to compact the turf. The whole process went on smoothly, neither light nor heavy, giving people a very calm and calm feeling. .
When he slowly stepped back, stood up straight, and waited for the free-throw whistle to sound, the eyes of all the fans watching the live broadcast on and off the court were all focused on him.
In the chairman's stand at the Bernabeu Stadium, Florentino couldn't help but stretch out his hands, wipe his face vigorously, took a deep breath, then took off his glasses, took out the lens cloth, and wiped it carefully. Then, put it on again.
He wanted to see more clearly.
"If the goal is scored, we are really in the upper hand," Florentino said softly.
Three to one and two to one, for Real Madrid, are two completely different results.
The former has obvious advantages, while the latter is destined to cause a hard fight at Old Trafford.
In terms of strength, Real Madrid is definitely ahead of Manchester United, but in this game, Ferguson's tactics really did a good job, and he went head-to-head with Benitez, but Manchester United's lineup was very short, which gave Real Madrid an opportunity.
If they go to Old Trafford with a score of 2-1, Real Madrid really dare not say that they can advance steadily, but if it is 3-1, Real Madrid will definitely be easier.
Almost everyone who understands football, understands the rules of the Champions League knockout rounds, will not object to this.
"Within less than 30 meters from the goal, the position and the angle are very suitable for him, and the possibility of scoring is very high."
Zidane is someone who has compared free kicks with Yang Yang, so he is very aware of Yang Yang's free kick skills. Even in an interview with the media before, Zidane once said that Yang Yang is one of the active players, the free kick The best of technology.
Of course, this remark caused a lot of controversy, because many fans do not like Yang Yang. They may be Pirlo fans, Messi fans, or Ronaldinho fans. They will definitely not agree with Qi Dane's point of view.
But this did not prevent Yang Yang from scoring directly with free kicks again and again.
Valdano also smiled slightly, "He is a monster who treats free kicks as penalty kicks in the mouths of fans and the media."
After listening to Florentino and Zidane, they couldn't help laughing and laughed.
Yang Yang is the banner of Real Madrid, the pride of President Florentino, and the pride of Real Madrid's management.
...
Off the pitch, Manchester United has set up a human wall, and Ferdinand and Vidic, two big and tall players, have also been placed in the human wall.
Yang Yang stared directly at the human wall and the goal behind the human wall. He paid attention to Van der Sar's position, and was constantly judging various complicated situations in his mind. These repeated calculations and measurements were ultimately boiled down to experience.
With the whistle of the referee, Yang Yang took a deep breath and quickly ran forward.
Every step he takes is a habit formed after years of repeated practice and has a deep muscle memory. When he came to the football and stood on his left foot, his entire body immediately tilted into an angle. , the right foot quickly kicked out.
His body is like a full bow, and the football is the arrow he shoots.
The ball flies quickly from his right foot, climbs quickly, and goes over the head of the human wall in a beautiful arc.
...
In front of the goal, Van der Sar quickly judged the trajectory of the football flight in mid-air, left!
Although the Dutch goalkeeper is 40 years old and has decided to retire at the end of this season, he is still in good shape so far, with good physical function, but not as flexible as when he was young, but with more experience.
Before the game, he had repeatedly studied Yang Yang's free kicks, especially those from the direction of the goal. He was studying and judging the rules of Yang Yang's free kicks, but he found that Yang Yang was also based on Different goalkeepers choose different ball paths, all of which are targeted.
Van der Sar is very clear that his weakness is on the left side of the goal, which is the right side of Real Madrid's attack.
There is no perfect player in this world, and naturally there is no perfect goalkeeper. The reason why Buffon is legendary is that he has almost no obvious weaknesses and is very comprehensive, but it is impossible to say that he is perfect. .
Casillas' height is also a huge defect. Of course, he can make up for it with quick reactions and flexible body when he is young, but once he gets older and his physical function declines, it is difficult for Casillas to maintain a high level.
This is a common problem with all short goalkeepers.
Another point is the weak side of the goalkeeper.
If the left-footed goalkeeper slams to the right and the right-footed goalkeeper slams to the left, there will inevitably be problems.
Buffon has overcome this problem to the maximum extent, Cech has basically overcome this problem, but Van der Sar has not, not even Kahn the Lion King, both of them are right-footed goalkeepers, there are serious problems with the left side .
Especially the left half high ball, and the upper left corner is a dead corner for them.
Van der Sar deliberately leaned slightly to the left when selecting the position, just to imply that Yang Yang knew where his weakness was, and consciously blocked his left side and guided him to hit the right side directly.
Unexpectedly, Yang Yang still chose the left side, and it was the upper left corner where he was the most difficult to save.
This is a big test for Van der Sar, but is it not a test for Yang Yang's free-kick skills?
Who can withstand such a lot of pressure in a crucial matchup like the Champions League semi-finals and take this free kick directly into the upper left corner?
But after Van der Sar judged the trend of the ball, he didn't have time to think about it at all. The whole person moved quickly to the left and flew to save.
Yang Yang's free throw came very quickly, and the arc was beautiful, but it was deadly.
At first, it looked like it was about to go out of bounds, but as it approached the goal, it sank suddenly, as if it had been pressed down by an invisible hand in mid-air, and then it was almost He wiped the angle between the right column and the crossbar and crashed into Manchester United's goal.
And Van der Sar's saved hand is just a little bit short, and the fingertips can get it!
A dead end is just a little bit short of this.
...
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Yang Yang's direct free kick scored!"
"Three to one!"
"fantastic!"
"This is definitely an earth-shattering direct free kick from Yang Yang!"
After Yang Yang scored the goal, he rushed out of the goal, sprinting all the way, and showed the eggplant gesture with both hands, but in fact he was excitedly telling everyone that he scored twice again.
More than 80,000 Real Madrid fans rushed out of the seats and shouted Yang Yang's name frantically.
"Let's see this kick scored a direct free kick."
"Playing back in slow motion from a different angle, it was definitely a dead end."
"Although Van der Sar was already prepared and made a save as soon as possible, he was still out of reach, just a little bit."
"All of us know, even Van der Sar himself, that the upper left corner is his blind spot and his weakness, but he can accurately take free kicks into this area. Looking at how many people in European football can ?"
"But tonight, Yang Yang did it!"
"From the camera behind the pitch, we can see that the arc of the ball is very strange, and there is an obvious drop. This is a sign of Yang Yang's free kick, which is a bit similar to Junior Juninho, and a bit like a falling leaf ball."
"fantastic!"
"What a fantastic direct free-kick!"
Yang Yang excitedly celebrated his goal under the south stand, and his teammates rushed over to celebrate the goal with him.
Kaka, Ibrahimovic, Robben, Xavi Alonso, Marcelo, Maicon, Fermaelen…
Real Madrid players rushed forward one by one, and even the goalkeeper Casillas shouted at Yang Yang from a distance, and raised his hands above his head to applaud him.
The entire Bernabeu stadium was also shouting Yang Yang's name in unison.
The score of three to one gave Real Madrid a certain advantage in the first round of the home game, which will have more advantages for the next away game at Old Trafford, and at the same time can minimize the pressure on Real Madrid in the league.
Real Madrid is determined to maintain a complete victory in the next league and put pressure on Barcelona, but if this game against Manchester United fails, the pressure on the team will be very high. Not only will there be problems in the Champions League, but the league may fall behind again.
But now, this goal has greatly eased the pressure on Real Madrid, but instead pushed all the problems to Manchester United.
"Ferguson still looked very depressed on the sidelines. He should have reminded the players before the game to minimize fouls within 30 meters, but Fabio was forced to foul when he couldn't stop Yang Yang just now. ."
"And now, Yang Yang has seized the opportunity to expand the score to three to one, which is equivalent to driving Manchester United to a dead end."
"A week from now at Old Trafford, Manchester United will have to be more aggressive and aggressive."
…………
…………
After Yang Yang scored this direct free kick, Manchester United tried to attack, but Real Madrid quickly responded by threatening Manchester United's goal twice in a row, forcing the Red Devils to give up.
In terms of offensive ability, looking at the entire European football world, Real Madrid is not afraid of any opponent.
Ferguson then replaced Scholes to try to strengthen the midfielder's ability to play the ball, but Real Madrid also made targeted substitutions, which did not make Ferguson's idea come true.
In the end, with Yang Yang's brace and an assist, Real Madrid defeated Manchester United three-to-one at home, laying a solid foundation for advancing to the final.
More importantly, this is Yang Yang's fifth consecutive Champions League match since 2011.
Since his return from injury, since the Champions League knockout stage, he has scored key goals in every game, and his performance is getting better and better, becoming the driving force behind Real Madrid's triumphant progress.
Whether it is Lyon or Tottenham, or Manchester United now, Yang Yang has played the role of a key superstar.
The three-to-one victory over Manchester United also made Real Madrid extremely convinced that the team has stepped into Wembley Stadium with one foot.
Of course, Benitez also repeatedly reminded the players in the dressing room after the game that the score of three to one is still unsafe.
