Football: Don’t talk about feelings, I’m just an AI

Chapter 244 The Dragon Wags its Tail
"foul!!"

There was an uproar in the surrounding stands. The moment Van Persie knocked Xia Qi down, angry shouts rose and fell like a tide.

"Red card! Red card! Red card!!" The roars of the audience intertwined together, like waves hitting the shore.

"Van Persie's action was too much. Was he deliberately hurting out of jealousy?" People began to question his intentions.

The moment Xia Qi fell, Gerrard rushed over like a gust of wind. His usual gentlemanly demeanor was gone, replaced by malicious anger towards Van Persie: "Can't afford to lose, right!"

Just as Gerrard was about to strangle Van Persie, his club and national team teammate Henderson hugged him in time, avoiding a possible conflict and preventing Gerrard from being sent off for his impulse.

When Gerrard tried to break free from Henderson's restraints, Van Persie had already helped Xia Qi up, and the two were talking in a seemingly friendly manner.

This confused Gerrard. He began to doubt whether his judgment was correct. He clearly saw that Van Persie's sliding tackle was aimed at Xia Qi's ankle...

Just at this moment, the referee stopped the game and warned Gerrard to calm down.

At the same time, Xia Qi stood up and glanced coldly at Van Persie who was warned by the referee.

That cold gaze seemed to penetrate Van Persie's soul, making his hair stand on end.

Van Persie was startled and felt an inexplicable sense of loss, as if he had suddenly lost something important...

Soon, Van Persie's foul scandal came to an end.

England won a free kick near the center circle.

Henderson kicked off, and Xia Qi made full use of his running in the frontcourt to disrupt the Dutch team's defense.

He has a wide range of activities, which puts a lot of pressure on the Dutch defense.

No matter where he appeared, there were at least two people defending him. The Dutch team was still behind in the score and had to invest in personnel in the frontcourt.

As a result, the defense line seemed to be stretched thin.

Xia Qi, who scored four goals in a row, brought "blood suppression" to the Dutch defenders. No one dared to pat his chest to challenge the defense, and they hurriedly "called for help" when they saw Xia Qi from afar.

Anyway, wherever Xia Qi is, their defense line will lean towards that direction!

Rooney suddenly found himself with open space everywhere.

He really couldn't believe that the team in front of him was the European powerhouse Netherlands.

It's hard to believe that tonight's match is the World Cup semi-finals.

For a while, he was a little uncomfortable and didn't dare to "enter the pit" rashly.
After careful observation, I found out that the situation was like this: the Dutch defenders "did not regard this fat guy as a forward!" and were all attracted away by Xia Qi.

This is tolerable, but what is intolerable about Xiaopang?

Rooney's heart beat faster at the thought of scoring a goal.

But he soon calmed down!
As a veteran, he knows that the more this happens, the calmer he needs to be.

Rooney saw the opportunity, but for Xia Qi, the Dutch defense was flawless.

So he began to expand his running position.

Retreat from the front to the attacking midfielder position.

Although Xia Qi was forced to retreat, he was still closely guarded by the opponent.

The task of defending him fell on midfielder Weddletown and defender Indy.

In addition to these two "bodyguards", Kuyt, who was not far away, was also closely following the developments here, ready to provide support to his teammates at any time.

This "triangle defense" strategy makes it difficult for Xia Qi to find a chance to break through even if he hangs up with one click.

As Xia Qi moved to the side, ran and supported in the attacking midfielder position... Rooney's heart was beating like a war drum, and the space in his eyes became clearer and clearer... only because another Dutch central defender De Vrij also went out to defend Xia Qi.

At the beginning of the second half, there were only two central defenders left in the Dutch defense line. When they retreated to defend, Blind and Kuyt returned to both sides of the penalty area to form a four-back defense line.

If the pressure on the defense increases dramatically, Wedeltown, De Jong and Sneijder can still move down to form a back line of five, six or seven players.

At this moment, both central defenders rushed to defend Xia Qi, and in Rooney's eyes, they were like "a beautiful woman without underwear", how could he not be moved? !
At this time, both central defenders ran to defend Xia Qi, which was undoubtedly a huge opportunity for Rooney.

He immediately signaled Henderson to lead the attack, freeing himself.

Henderson observed that Xia Qi was surrounded, so he passed the ball to Walcott on the other side.

Walcott and Gerrard made a wonderful combination on the right side, successfully attracting two players defending Xia Qi.

Seeing this, Xia Qi quickly moved forward.
Facing the high ball from Gerrard, Walcott jumped up and headed the ball to Xia Qi who was making a run.

Seeing this, Wedelton and Indi rushed forward to double-team and try to trap Xia Qi and prevent him from participating in the attack.

At the same time, the surrounding Dutch players also began to deploy defenses with Xia Qi as the center.

There is no way, this beast is too brutal, it has already been a big four! No matter how much attention is paid, it is not too much!

Faced with such tight defense, even if Xia Qi could control the ball, it seemed difficult for him to launch an effective attack.

Dutch goalkeeper Cillessen estimated Xia Qi's position and felt that he was too far away from him. If he shot directly, it would not pose much threat to him, so he shifted his attention to other English players.

It seemed that the Netherlands was about to successfully defend Xia Qi again.

But then Xia Qi's body tilted slightly, allowing the football to roll past him.

Indi, who was "dancing close" with Xia Qi, thought that Xia Qi was going to pass the ball to a teammate. He turned and looked in the direction where the ball was rolling, and no longer stuck to Xia Qi, thus giving Xia Qi space to handle the ball.

Xia Qi seized on this slight mistake. He raised his right leg like a sharp whip or a dragon's tail, and used the outside of his right foot to pull the football away.

The football flew straight forward.

On the other side of the field, Rooney saw Xia Qi pass the ball and instantly smiled.

He immediately bent his bow and drew his arrow, waiting for the "cannonball" to come and shoot immediately.

"Fuck! I'm gonna fuck you...Wow! Good shot!"

Unexpectedly, Xia Qi fooled everyone.

That leak turned out to be a "scam".

Xia Qi kicked the football towards the goal with an unconventional move!

It was actually a dragon-tail shot, and from a very long distance!

The dragon's tail swing is often difficult to achieve a powerful shot due to the force.

But this does not exist at all for Xia Qi.

The football exploded like a windmill and rushed towards the Dutch goal like a meteor hitting the earth.

Cillessen's mood was exactly the same as Rooney's. After seeing Xia Qi miss the ball, he focused all his attention on Rooney who was drawing his bow and arrow.

result……

Apart from greeting Xia Qi's entire family of female relatives and friends, Cillesen really couldn't find more appropriate words.

Can't you just change someone else if you want to take advantage of the situation?
For me, “five sons all passed the imperial examination”!
