Chapter 191
Regarding this passive substitution, some people felt afterwards that if Moya hadn't been injured, the result might have been completely different.

It is true that Moya is very good. His attack prediction and long pass ability are at the top level.

But Oblak is also not bad, and he is younger and more energetic. Although Oblak is a little lower in height, he is talented and can definitely become an excellent first-class goalkeeper in the future.

In fact, this is not the first time that Jose and Oblak have competed in space.

Just in last year's Europa League semi-finals, Jose had a contest with him.

That time, Jose had the last laugh.

The game continues.

The fighting on the field is still fierce.

Until the 27th minute, the situation on the field changed suddenly.

Carney dribbled the ball from the right side of the front court to try to break through, and Spasic shoveled him directly from behind.

Carney fell to the ground.

Referee Rizzoli showed the first yellow card of the game.

As a result, Spahic will be suspended for one game.

Atletico Madrid won a free kick from the right side of the ribs.

The penalty spot is more than 35 yards from the goal, and it is impossible to hit the goal directly.

Even so, Atletico Madrid's players did not intend to give up this set-piece opportunity easily.

I saw several Atletico Madrid players gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

On the contrary, the Leverkusen players were a little bit disapproving. They neither actively lined up the wall nor assigned personnel to protect the penalty area.

Although Jose faintly felt uneasy, he didn't think much about it. After all, even if Carlos took the penalty at a distance of 35 yards, he still had enough time to react.

So Jose didn't say a word to remind him.

However, after 1 minute, Jose felt regretful.

Atletico Madrid players decided after discussion that Cork would be responsible for taking the free kick.

Pass directly to the penalty area with a big foot.

It's a pity that Cork's pass was not threatening and was directly blocked by the players from the pharmaceutical factory.

The ball flying out of the penalty area is still under the control of Atletico Madrid.

Carney hit the second drop.

On the front right side of the penalty area, Carney headed the ball and pushed the ball to the other side.

The ball landed at the feet of Mario Suarez.

From the edge of the box, Mario Suarez shoots with his left foot.

The ball flew straight towards the post.

Jose saw it, and immediately moved quickly to the left of the goal.

At this time, the small penalty area is still in chaos, and the players who just competed for the free kick have not had time to come out.

In a panic, Toprak stretched out his foot to block, he wanted to block the opponent's shot.

An astonishing thing happened.

Toprak failed to block the opponent's shot, so the ball changed its original trajectory and turned to roll towards the lower right corner of the goal.

At this time, Jose has already rushed to the left side of the goal, and it is absolutely impossible for him to rush to the right side in time to save.

In this way, Mario Suarez's shot, after refraction, rolled into the goal from the bottom right corner of the goal.

Atletico Madrid led 1-0 at home, and the total score was tied 1-1.

What makes the fans of the pharmaceutical factory feel uncomfortable is that Mario Suarez's shot is the first shot on target by both sides in this game.

Jose became the "Regent" at this moment?
Of course not, for this kind of refracting ball, luck is the key, and Jose is just the unlucky one.

As for Toprak, the responsibility cannot be attributed to him either. As a central defender, facing the opponent's shot, it is very correct to stretch your feet to block it.

It just made him unexpected, he failed to block the opponent's shot, but changed the direction of the opponent's shot.

That's the beauty of football.

Sometimes, one is unlucky and gets scored.

In any case, the two sides have now returned to the same starting line.

After tying the total score, Atletico Madrid began to become more imposing.

The fight between the two sides has also become more intense.

Jose Jimenez tackled Sun Xingmin and got the second yellow card of the game.

Mandzukic injured his ankle during the fight and was forced to go to the sidelines for treatment.

Of course, in addition to the intense scenes, there are also interesting things happening.

In the 40th minute, Mandzukic's shot was directly confiscated by Jose.

Looking at the front field, there is no chance of a quick counterattack.

Jose had no choice but to cancel his plan to take a quick goal kick.

Holding the ball with both hands, he squeezed it a little harder.

"Huh? Why is the air pressure of this ball so low?" Jose found that the ball in his hand was obviously not elastic enough.

Putting the ball to his ear, Jose heard a very faint sizzle.

"The ball leaked." Jose immediately raised his hand to signal to the referee.

For a heavyweight game like the Champions League, every football used has been strictly selected and tested. How could it leak?

The home fans booed immediately.

They all believed that Jose was deliberately delaying time.

Jose's performance in the penalty kick, although unbelievable, but the fact is in front of us.

So fans will inevitably think that Jose wants to drag the game into a penalty shootout.

Although the referee Rizzoli also had such doubts, he still walked up to Jose and took the ball from Jose.

"It is indeed a leak." After checking, Rizzoli immediately asked the staff to replace the game ball.

The brief interlude passed quickly.

This incident shows that even if the probability is small, it may happen.

At the end of the first half, the score on the court was still 1-0, and the total score was 1-1.

In the end who can get the top 8 tickets will be decided by the second half of the game.

Interestingly, in the close combat in the first half, Atletico Madrid had only 1 foul, while Leverkusen had as many as 10 fouls.

Only fans who are familiar with Schmidt's coaching style will feel that this is a normal performance.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Simeone took the lead in substituting, but he replaced Carney instead of Mandzukic with an ankle injury.

As far as the performance in the first half, although Carney assisted Mario Suarez to score a goal, most of the time, facing Hilbert's defensive interception, he didn't have much to do.

It was Garcia who replaced Carney.

In addition, Atletico Madrid captain Gabi and Torres have begun to warm up on the sidelines, ready to appear at any time.

The scene is still fierce, and the number of shots is still very few, and the shots that hit the target are even rarer.

In the 46th minute, Bender made a successful steal in the backcourt.

Directly pass the big foot to the wing, and the ball reaches Sun Xingmin's feet.

Sun Xingmin dribbled the ball forward and reached the left side of Atletico Madrid's penalty area in a blink of an eye.

Faced with the joint interception of Turan and Juanfran, Sun Xingmin was unable to break through and had no chance to cross.

Sun Xingmin could only pass back to Wendell behind him.

After taking the ball, Wendell cuts in laterally, first passing Cork's interception, and then passing the ball to the middle of the penalty area.

Bella Rabbi takes the ball and shoots directly.

The ball bounced off the ground and flew towards the left of the center of the goal.

At this time Oblak was in the same position, there was no need to move his body at all, Oblak just jumped lightly, and Bellarabi's shot had already been confiscated.

Bella Rabbi's shot is the most threatening shot of the Leverkusen team so far.

Oblak took the goal kick with a big foot, and Atletico Madrid started to counterattack.

Turan dribbled the ball from the side and wanted to pass the ball inside, but was knocked down by Toprak.

Toprak is shown a yellow card.

Atletico Madrid get another free kick.

This time, Jose did not deal with it carelessly.

After arranging the human wall, Jose ordered two players to stand outside the penalty area, so that they could compete for the second spot at any time.

Cork shoots directly from a free kick.

The speed of the ball is fast and the angle is also very good, but Jose has already predicted it.

He jumped up and blocked the opponent's shot with one hand.

The blocked ball was snatched by Bender, without any sloppiness, he directly cleared the ball out of the penalty area.

The battle between the two sides in the midfield started again.

In the 69th minute, Schmidt began to make substitutions and adjustments.

Kisling came on as a substitute, replacing Drmic.

In this game, Delmic was completely submerged in the opponent's defense.He played 69 minutes, did not pass, did not shoot, and did not even threaten to pass the ball.

Two minutes later, Kisling took the ball from the right.

Gamez intercepts it.

Just when Kisling dunked Gamez and was about to break into the penalty area, Gamez decisively used a tactical foul.

Gamez also got a topaz card.

Leverkusen's free kick did not pose much threat.

The competition was more than intense but not exciting enough.

If it weren't for the fierce fighting between the two sides on the field, both Jose and Oblak would have almost fallen asleep.

Schmidt knew that the chances of defeating the opponent through sports warfare were really slim, so he made adjustments decisively.

Rolfers came off the bench and Son Heung-min was replaced.

Adding a defensive midfielder and removing an offensive player, Schmidt's intention is too obvious.

In the 80th minute, Atletico Madrid had the opportunity to attack the penalty area of ​​the pharmaceutical factory.

Griezmann has the ball on the left side of the penalty area.

Hilbert intercepts it.

Griezmann had no chance to cross, so he could only choose to pass back behind him.

The ball reached Turan's feet.

15 yards from the left side of the penalty area, Turan kicked the goal.

Facing Turan's shot, Jose was well prepared.

Jose jumped up, hit the ball out with a single fist, and was cleared out of the penalty area by Spasic.

It was Atlético's second on-target shot of the game.

Is this the level of the Champions League?
Only the fans who have watched the whole game know how intense the game has been.

About 90 minutes before the end of the 10-minute game, Simeone began to make substitutions.

Mandzukic was substituted and Torres came off the bench.

In the 85th minute, Torres received a pass from his teammate and shot with his left foot from 12 yards in the penalty area.

Jose sank and blocked Torres' shot with his body.

This was Atlético's third on-target shot of the game.

So far, the Leverkusen team still has only one shot in the goal.

In the end, within 90 minutes, the total score was still 1-1.

The two sides entered overtime.

According to data, this is the 14th time that Atletico Madrid has entered overtime in the European war, second only to Ajax (15) and Barcelona (16), while Leverkusen is the fourth.

In the first half of overtime, Kisling finally completed his team's second shot inside the goal. Unfortunately, the angle of the shot was not well controlled and was directly confiscated by Oblak.

In the 102nd minute, Kisling expressed dissatisfaction after being called for a foul, and the referee Rizzoli showed the 8th yellow card.

This shows the intensity of the competition.
