What ball king, call me ball god

Chapter 160 Chasing Records, Invincible Youth

"Beep-"

With the whistle of the referee, Juventus' home game against Ajax in the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals officially started.

After Lin Kedi heard the whistle, he turned around and kicked the ball into the backcourt, then turned around and ran forward.

In terms of the rhythm of the game in the first half, Ajax definitely wanted to play fast, but Juventus was as steady as an old dog, kicking slowly, trying to make the rhythm of the game enter Juventus' own rhythm.

The Juventus game is indeed different from the previous game. Although there are three midfielders, Juventus played double midfielders today, Emre Can and Pjanic dragged behind, and Matu Edie stood in front of the two of them, kicking from a position that looked like an attacking midfielder.

But after a while, Lin Kedi discovered that Dybala had retreated to the front midfielder position, and Ronaldo and Bernardeschi were actually playing a double forward.

So what formation is this?
Double midfielder plus double midfielder plus double center forward?
Don't go sideways?
Lin Kedi didn't understand Allegri's operation.

Similarly, Ten Hag couldn't understand what Allegri was doing with this tactic.

He couldn't help but said to the assistant coach Mitchell: "Isn't Juventus completely giving up the wing to us?"

"Could they try to hit us in the rib area?"

"It's also possible, we still need to observe more."

But 30 minutes have passed in the first half, and Juventus' new tactics have not come up with any new tricks.

Ten Hag took a look and found that the opponent didn't respond, so he just waved his hand and pressed forward with a big attack.

The Ajax players saw the coach's gestures and passed them one by one, and soon the whole team unified their thinking.

I thought you had some new tactics, but it turned out to be just a show, and there is no threat if you mess around.

Don't blame us for taking the shot.

As a result, Ajax immediately launched a frontcourt press.

Lin Kedi took the lead and grabbed the ball from Pjanic's feet.

As soon as Pjanic was under pressure, he decisively passed the ball behind him.

At this time, Tadic on the left immediately moved laterally to grab Rugani.

And Kedi Lin also moved forward quickly. As long as Tadic can grab the ball and take advantage of the situation, Lin Kedi can get the ball and face the goalkeeper single-handedly.

If Tadic fails to grab the ball, Lin Kedi can quickly block Rugani's transfer route to the other side.

Tadic is on the left, and Link blocked the right. In this way, if stealing the ball fails, Rugani has only two options left, one is to turn around and pass to the goalkeeper, and the other is to pass forward.

Pass the point first to the keeper, who either turns around and passes the ball, or knocks the ball with his heel.

But Rugani was stuck by Tadic and was very restrained. He wanted to turn around, but there were people on both sides. He had no choice but to pass to his teammate Emrejan in front of him.

At this time, Van der Beek, who was in ambush, appeared, made a tackle and successfully intercepted the ball.

Pjanic was shocked and reached out to grab Van der Beek, Link shouted "Go ball!"

As a result, Van der Beek did not play the ball, but continued to dribble forward.

Just sticking the ball like this, Pjanic broke the ball even after pulling and pulling.

But then, De Jong behind Pjanic rushed up to steal the ball.

And Pjanic was hit by De Jong solidly before turning around at this time, and before he recovered, he looked down and saw that the ball was gone.

Without even thinking about it, Pjanic turned around and stretched out his hand and just grabbed it.

De Jong was moving forward with the ball, but suddenly his clothes were pulled by Pjanic, and then his feet were swept down by a sweep.

It doesn't hurt, but——

De Jong heard the referee's whistle while lying on the ground.

"Foul! It's a foul, a yellow card and a free kick!"

"Pjanic brought down De Jong from behind without any chance of getting the ball. Definitely a foul. Now Ajax got a free kick on the right side of the front! This free kick Lin Kedi will take the penalty!"

"This season Lin Kedi scored 3 goals directly from free kicks!"

Lin Kedi took the ball and walked to the penalty spot.

He took a deep breath and wiped his shorts with both hands.

"It's very interesting. People often say that Lin Kedi's free kick before taking the penalty is very similar to Ronaldo. Today Ronaldo is also on the court."

"And Lin Kedi's Champions League goals this season has reached 15 goals, which is only 17 goals away from the record of 2 goals. Similarly, Ronaldo is also the holder of the Champions League scoring record in a single season."

While Huang Jianxiang was still talking, the referee blew the whistle for a free throw.

Lin Kedi took a deep breath. After measuring the distance, Lin Kedi started to run.

Three steps, two steps, one step.

Link kicked the bottom of the ball with his left foot, and the ball drew an arc, first going up, and after crossing the human wall, it descended extremely fast.

"Elevator ball! Wow! Beautiful! The ball went in! Perfect arc! Perfect free kick, elevator ball!" Huang Jianxiang shouted. He stood up excitedly and waved his fist in the air.

Zhang Lu on the side also laughed "hehe".

"This ball, Lin Kedi played so beautifully. It's a perfect falling leaf ball, a perfect elevator ball. The ball crossed the jumping wall. As soon as it passed the wall, it fell directly, and the place where it fell was the goal. I can only say that Lin Kedi's free kick skill is also very good now!"

"This is Lin Kedi's 16th Champions League goal this season! Only 1 goal away from tying Ronaldo's record! Even Lin Kedi may directly tie in this game!"

When Lin Kedi saw the ball hit the net, he turned around and faced the stands, opened his arms, closed his eyes, and looked very pretending.

The teammates all ran from behind.

De Jong got close and hugged him.

"Stop pretending, kid, you're here for the fans of the home team!"

Sure enough, after experiencing a brief silence and quiet.

This side of the stands, no, the whole stadium was booed loudly.

Lin Kedi turned around and embraced with his teammates, walking towards his own half surrounded by crowds.

Ronaldo looked at the celebrating crowd with a complicated expression.

At this moment, he felt really old.

Because there is a boy under the age of 18 on the opposite side, he is almost catching up with his own record of 17 goals.

Sure enough, in competitive sports, age is to a large extent the decisive factor.

But Ronaldo was not discouraged, turned his head and shouted at his teammates.

The game is not over yet!

After the re-kick-off, Juventus, who fell behind by 3 goals in total, finally rushed up.

They want to get at least one goal back before the end of the first half of the game. In this case, there will be some games at home in the second half.

Therefore, in the rest of the first half, Juventus accelerated the rhythm as much as possible.

But until the end of the first half, Juventus failed to break Ajax's goal.
