Chapter 591 Wonderful arc!
"Damn! Oops!!" The coach of the Greek team on the sidelines, Rehhagel, suddenly stood up.

Just when everyone was still confused by England's free kick, in the penalty area, before all the Greek players could react, a white figure leaped high and scored a powerful header. hit the football! !
boom!A muffled sound!
Swish!The sound of the football hitting the goal net and rubbing against the net! !

"It's - goooooooooaaaaaaaaal - Li Rui!!!!!! SUPPER - GOOOOOOOAAAAL!!!"

"Boom!" In the stands of the England fans at the Bourne Stadium, it exploded like a sudden eruption of magma! !

There is a huge sound wave bursting out! !

***********
Beckham stood there, laughing and opening his arms, Li Rui yelled 'GOAL' loudly, flew towards him, and threw the captain to the ground.

This free-kick coordination is very ingenious. The most important thing is not Gerrard's side split, nor Li Rui's forward drive. The most important thing is Beckham's cross. This is the key pass. If there is no good news, then this cooperation will be impossible to talk about.

However, Beckham used this extremely precise cross to tell everyone that the 'Bezier arc' is still very powerful!
***********
"It's so beautiful!" On the commentary seat, Lineker spoke loudly into the headset. He raised one arm and waved it vigorously, like a windmill.

Mourinho applauded on the sidelines. The madman is very satisfied with this goal. This free kick tactic has been practiced in training. However, training and competition are two different things. It is possible to score such a well-coordinated goal in the competition. , is not easy.

"England! England! God bless the Queen, the Queen bless England!" In the stands of the Bourne Stadium, England fans raised the red cross 'St. George' flag on a white background and waved it vigorously in the rainy night.

"Onward, St. George! Onward, England!!"

"Oooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!"

Li Rui's goal ignited the enthusiasm of the English fans. Just now they were still worried about the team. In the last cup, the Greeks defeated Spain and Portugal, which made the English fans a little scared. In addition, in the match Before, England fans dismissed the Greeks, thinking that the victory of this game was already in their pockets, but they were bitten by the Greeks at the beginning of the game and conceded the goal. Then, the Greeks shrank ugly Defensive, this makes the proud England fans intolerable, they feel humiliated by the despicable Greeks!

But now, a wonderful cooperation, a goal, all emotions can burst out!

***********
Next, the game began to enter the right track, proceeding according to everyone's imagination.The score was equalized, and the Greeks no longer retreated to defend the whole line. However, they did not press out to attack. The defensive counterattack is the biggest weapon of the Greeks. What they have to do now is to be more resolute when counterattacking. How to say, in this game, both Rehhagel and the Greek team need 3 points!
This is exactly the Greek team in the impression of the fans, the defending champion who used the defensive counterattack to the extreme.

However, the Greek fans found that in today's game, the defensive pressure on the Greek team was unprecedentedly high, because:
The attack power of England with Li Rui as the core of the attack is too strong!
***********
England's offensive configuration in the frontcourt has always been good, but it has not been able to form a synergy. Now it is different. Li Rui has become the core of the offense appointed by Mourinho. Under his leadership, although England's offense We can't talk about a qualitative change for the time being, but the eye-catching cooperation and offense caused the fans to burst into screams and cheers from time to time.

The tacit cooperation between Li Rui and Rooney in the Manchester United team for three or four seasons allowed the two to know the opponent's running position, where to pass the football, and know the opponent's running position with almost a glance or a subconscious movement when attacking. When to do it alone and when to cooperate, in one sentence, that is:
These two guys are having a great time!

***********
Watching England's offense, wave after wave, Rehhagel made adjustments on the sidelines. With less than 10 minutes left in the first half of the game, everyone saw that the Greek team retreated again. , Putting on a 1:1 score in the first half.

Even the best hunters are helpless against a giant turtle that has everyone's body shrunk into its shell.

Therefore, Li Rui, Lampard, Gerrard, Rooney, Beckham, England's top five attackers, took turns to attack the Greek team's defense, but unfortunately they were all resolved under the united effort of the Greeks.

What I have to say is that the Greeks' defense is indeed very sophisticated. Their defense is not only tight, but can be described as 'annoying'. They don't want to leave the English with even the slightest chance It is rolling and crawling on the ground, but also to let the English players feel their presence when they shoot.

Especially for Li Rui's defense, as long as Li Rui gets the ball, at least two Greeks around him will be entangled, pulling the jersey covertly, kicking his own support leg, if it doesn't work, he will just tackle the ball, in short, the purpose is to prevent him Get comfortable with the ball.

***********
It is worth mentioning that the goalkeeper of the Greek team, Nicopolidis, was almost possessed by Batman during this period. He performed exceptionally well and saved at least two must-go goals for England.

"Li Rui passed the ball with his heel, Gerrard leaked the ball, Wayne (Rooney) shot!!! It was saved by Nicopolidis! I really doubt whether this guy is taking doping." England commentator With resentment on his face, he sneered, "It is said that weak teams are goalkeepers. It seems that the defending champion is also a place to be a good goalkeeper!"

***********
Although the offense was not smooth, Mourinho was not in a hurry. He didn't even shout out from the sidelines. The England players are the absolute main players of their respective teams. Most of them come from the giants. Mourinho believes that at this time, the players themselves will make adjustments on the court and know what to do.

As for the score of the Greek coach Rehagel who wants a half-time tie, Mourinho doesn't care too much. If he can't score a goal at half-time, the score of 1:1 at half-time is not unacceptable:

Rehhagel wants to stay focused on counterattacking in the second half. Could it be that his England is easy to bully?
The camera captured Mourinho on the sidelines on the coach's bench, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, as if he was satisfied with the current stalemate on the field...

***********
Gerrard staggered dribbling the ball in the frontcourt, Li Rui raised his hand to ask for the ball, and Gerrard immediately threw the football out with a grounder.

Li Rui didn't catch the ball, but ran straight forward. Did he make a pass error?

At the next glance, people saw Rooney appearing in sight, followed the football, poked it with his toe, and the football rolled forward. Li Rui took advantage of the momentum, then controlled the football under his feet, and looked up at Brazil who was defending him. Nas and Li Rui made a fake move. Seeing that the opponent was unmoved, he pushed the arch of his foot and passed the football to Beckham on the right, and then ran forward by himself.

Beckham passed the football back to him again, two over one!

Seeing this series of small-scale cooperation, even the England fans felt dazed. When did their England play such an exquisite cooperation?

***********
People turned their attention to the coach bench on the sidelines, and immediately admired and admired the Portuguese man named Jose Mourinho.

Mourinho doesn't know that England fans love him very much at the moment. Madman's greatest contribution to England's offensive system is to resolutely formulate an offensive strategy with Li Rui as the core, requiring England's midfielders to be unconditional. Li Rui is the vane of attack.

Mourinho has seen one point, that is, Li Rui's offensive talent is the biggest catalyst for revitalizing England's offense!
I don’t know if McLaren noticed this at the time, but it’s not important anymore. The important thing is that McLaren didn’t and didn’t dare to reuse Li Rui, and Mourinho gave Li Rui the greatest trust and confidence. Front field freedom.

It is not easy for a Chinese star to become the core of the proud England's offense, but this Portuguese did just that!
So far, the effect is really good!
***********
After playing a two-on-one with Beckham, Li Rui continued to drive forward with the ball. Facing this kind of dense defense, it is necessary to play more small cooperation. In addition, the personal ability of the players is also used to attract the attention of the defense. Very useful.

Sure enough, Kathuranis came up to intercept. He just stretched out his foot to steal the ball, intending to steal the ball from Li Rui's feet.

Could it be that Katuranis has been passed by Li Rui a few times before, and he still doesn't have a long memory?
Li Rui tilted his body, and with a beautiful flick of his right foot, he dodged Kathuranis' interception. Kathuranis just shoveled the air, but now it was too late to get up and chase him.

"Beautiful! Kachulanis was passed!! Li Rui dribbled the ball, GO!!!" Lineker stood up and shouted loudly, "His feet are amazing! Thank God! This is England Gospel!"

Before Lineker finished speaking, Torossidis came up to intercept Li Rui on the field, and Li Rui was advancing, swiping and pulling, and then accelerated, rushing past Torossidis !

Two people in a row!

***********
"Too strong!" England fans screamed and applauded loudly in the stands of Bourne Stadium, while Greek fans and media reporters couldn't help but wailed.

next second!

Kirjakos and Li Rui were entangled together. No matter what Kirjakos did, the football was still firmly under Li Rui's feet. Finally, when Li Rui swung the ball horizontally and was about to shoot, Kirjakos Kos pulled Li Rui's jersey with his left hand and dragged Li Rui down.

beep!
The referee Hammett's whistle sounded, and there was no doubt that he was fouled. He showed Kirjakos a yellow card. The latter had a wry smile on his face. When he pulled Li Rui down, he knew he would get a card. up.However, in the face of Li Rui's toughness, he had no choice but to foul. He couldn't just watch Li Rui take a shot.

***********
The position of this free kick is very good, and it is a good opportunity for England to overtake the score.

Beckham originally planned to take the kick, but he stopped when he saw Li Rui got up from the ground and hugged the football. This man named David Beckham can be called a role model for professional players. If it were someone else, they might have gone over to compete with Li Rui for free throws. However, Beckham put England's victory first and didn't care too much about it.

Holding the football, Li Rui found Beckham standing there. He smiled and said, "David, don't you want to relive your old dreams?"

Speaking of giving the football to Beckham, Beckham was taken aback and smiled.

Reliving old dreams?

The scene from 7 years ago sounded in my mind, and the crazy cheers...

***********
Beckham placed the ball carefully on the turf, then stepped back and waited for the opponent to line up the wall.

I thought that Li Rui took the initiative to take the free kick, but now, seeing Li Rui handing over the football to Beckham, England captain Beckham stood at the penalty spot, and the England commentator, to be precise, was a non-Greek commentator At this time, they are all excited.

"David Beckham stood at the penalty spot, haha, this reminds us of the World Cup qualifiers between England and Greece seven years ago, it was with Beckham's free kick that England advanced to Korea and Japan in a thrilling manner The World Cup! Seven years later, we are facing the Greek team again. Now it is the second game of the group stage of the European Cup. If the England team can win, it will basically ensure that the group will qualify in advance. Now, Beckham is standing again The penalty spot, the foul spot, is almost the same as seven years ago... Will history repeat itself? Let's wait and see!"

Beckham looked down at his white Three Lions jersey. He has been wearing this jersey for 12 years. In 12 years, many things can happen, praise, joy, blame, pain , tears, he tasted them all—

***********
September 1996, 9, World Cup qualifiers: England 1-3 Moldova, England fans noticed that a young man named David Beckham made his debut and put on the England jersey. Twelve years have passed, but, For him, a young man named Beckham, this will always be a proud and memorable day.

***********
On June 1998, 6, he followed the England team to France and participated in the World Cup. On this day, England 26-2 Colombia in the World Cup group match. This game should be a milestone in his career. He did not participate in the England team. In the first game, thank the coach for choosing himself in the game against Colombia. What Beckham can't forget is that in this game, he scored a free kick, which was his first goal in the England team. In England's first World Cup goal, and that day is also Beckham's mother's birthday, this is also the best birthday gift for mother.

***********
On June 1998, 6, after the England team was promoted, they faced Argentina. Beckham, who was knocked down, lay on the ground and raised his foot unnecessarily and lightly touched Simeone. As a result, Simeone seized the opportunity and collapsed in a very exaggerated manner. On the ground, the referee gave Beckham a red card.Although England finally lost in the penalty shootout, Beckham was still considered the sinner for England's exit at the time.At this time, Beckham is the sinner of England, the sinner who is shouting and scolding all over England! !Someone sent him bullets, threatening to kill him! !
***********
On October 2001, 10, in the World Cup qualifiers, England 6-2 Greece, yes, today's opponent, the Greek team, today, in today's Greek team, many opponents in that game are gone On the court, 2 years can change a lot.

In this game, when England took a free kick at the last moment of the game, Beckham stood at the penalty spot, and when that wonderful arc entered the net, the whole England was boiling.

At this moment, he became England's national hero again! !

***********
On June 2002, 6, it was the World Cup again. The stunned young Beckham 7 years ago came to the World Cup again. This time, he wore the England captain's armband on his arm! !
England VS Argentina in the World Cup group match, life is unpredictable. God sent Argentina to the England team again, just like returning to the origin. The red card in 1998 made Beckham fall to the bottom, but then Beckham succeeded in Manchester United, especially in 1999 when he achieved the treble, but in the national team, or facing Argentina, it is a pity Always and forever pain.

On this day, in this game, England won a penalty kick, and Beckham stood on the penalty spot. When he scored a penalty kick against Argentina to complete his revenge, the burden on him seemed to be gone at this moment. return.

***********
In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, in the quarter-finals, Beckham was injured by Valente and had to be replaced.An hour later, sitting on the bench, he could only watch England lose on penalties - so what if he vomited?So what if the tears flowed down my cheeks?As captain, he failed again...

This failure almost became his swan song in the England national team. After that, when McClaren came to power, he was deprived of the captain's armband and missed the England team... Even his chance to play in the 100 games represented by the England team was also a matter of media reports. What McLaren begged to come was still a warm-up match...

***********
Time is like a reincarnation. At this moment, in the 2008 European Cup, the captain's armband on his arm is so eye-catching and heavy. However, Beckham is very satisfied. This time, he does not want to taste the failure again. taste……

He tasted too much of the taste of failure.

Beckham looked at the football under his feet and took a deep breath, so let's use this arc to start the final journey now.

***********
The referee Hammett stepped back. When he retreated to a place where he would not interfere with the flight of the ball, he took a look at Beckham and saw that Beckham nodded to indicate that he was ready, so Hammett blew his mouth. whistle.

"beep!"

As soon as the whistle sounded, Beckham took one step, two steps, two and a half steps, stopped, supported his left foot, and swung his right foot, like a swinging golf club hitting a golf ball. Lean forward slightly, like a lighthouse.

After the football was hit, it flew up and brought a splash of water.

Looking down from the stands of the Bourne Stadium, through the thin rain and fog, you can see an orange arc, like a faint yellow rainbow, crossing the jumping wall and going straight to the upper right corner of the goal .

The Greek goalkeeper Nikopolidis, who had been performing well just now, tried his best to save, but the angle of the free kick shot was too tricky——

The soccer ball almost brushed against the junction of the crossbeam and the upright, flew into the net, made a scuffing sound, and lifted the net into a big bag!
***********
In the stands of the Bourne Stadium in Salzburg, more than 8000 England fans, when they saw the football cross a rainbow, hang into a dead corner, and hit the net, they all stood up, raised their arms high, and grabbed the ball. In front of the narrator, shouted loudly, "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!" Lineker yelled loudly there, and the high-pitched roar rang out, "David Beckham!! Our captain!! A wonderful direct free kick! 2:1! England overtaken the score It's the same as 7 years ago, David's goal! This is really a wonderful memory!"

Seeing the football fly into the net, Beckham rushed to the stands where the England fans were. I will definitely think of the scene seven years ago. Apart from being excited, I am also a little emotional.

***********
When Li Rui saw the football crossing that wonderful arc and flying into the net, he started to run towards Beckham. He rushed up from behind and hugged Beckham tightly.

"That's a beautiful ball, David!"

In the 41st minute of the game, Li Rui created a free kick in a good position for England. Beckham took the direct free kick, a wonderful arc, England 2:1 Greece...

At this moment, time seems to have traveled back to 7 years ago...
