Penalty shootouts can be described as the most brutal way to play. In just a few minutes, the winner will be decided. Moreover, the psychological pressure faced by free throw players is quite large.

Because everyone takes penalty for granted, failure to score is a sinner, which will make the penalty player suffer and be stressed.

But no matter how reluctant he was, in the suffocating atmosphere of the scene, the penalty shootout officially began.

The first penalty was taken by the home team Estudiantes de La Prada, and the first to stand up was striker Joaquín Correa.

He walked slowly into the box and placed the ball on the penalty spot, and Hurricanes goalkeeper Marcos Dias began jumping back and forth on the goal line, interfering and pressuring Joaquín Correa.

Joaquín Correa was indeed influenced by Marcos Dias, and after the referee blew a whistle that could be taken from a free throw, a shot actually flew off the crossbar and into the stands.

“Ahhh…”

“The ball kicked and flew!”

“Joaquín Correa, the first player to take off the coach of the estudiantes de La Plata, may have wanted to play a dead corner in the upper left corner under great pressure and the interference of Marcos Díaz.”

“The result was that not only did I not get the ball into the goal, but I flew straight off the crossbar.”

“It’s up to the Hurricanes next.”

The home fans in the stands let out a neat sigh and many slapped their heads madly, feeling rather bad for Joaquín Correa’s opening black.

The first Hurricanes to step up and take the penalty was also forward Thomson Mira.

Seeing Joaquín Correa’s previous experience, Mira did not dare to hit the upper corner, but hit a lower right corner after changing the rhythm during the run.

After Mira’s ball went out, the opposing goalkeeper Hilario Navarro judged the right direction to save sideways. Fortunately, Thomson Mira’s penalty was angled enough, and Hilario Navarro’s flying trip failed to touch the ball, and the ball slipped through the gap between him and the upright and burrowed into the bottom right corner of the goal.

Willard and the others, who stood hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder on the center line, suddenly shouted:

“Good!”

“Yay!”

“Good ball!”

“Long live Mira!”

Thomson Mira withstood the pressure and scored the first penalty to give Hurricanes an opener to a 1-0 lead on penalties.

This pressure was given to the students of the Estudiantes de La Plata.

The Estudiantes came out in the second round with midfielder Roman Martinez, but he withstood the pressure and put the ball into the bottom left corner to equalise.

But Mancinelli, the captain of Atletico Hurricanes’ second appearance, is also quite mentally strong, otherwise he would not have been the captain. When he faced Hilario Navarro, he directly came with a heavy kick and sent the ball to the right side of the goal.

Although goalkeeper Hilario Navarro judged the right direction, he still couldn’t save and could only watch the ball into the net.

Mancinelli won the second round to give Hurricanes a 2-1 lead on penalties.

The Estudiantes de La Plata began the third round of the penalty, played by striker Carrillo. Carrillo also withstood the pressure and pushed straight into the bottom right corner to send the ball into a dead corner.

But then Hurricane Athletic midfielder Jiman Mandalino was also skilled and sent the ball into the top left corner with a daring volley that didn’t fly off the crossbar.

This kind of goal will be completely out of reach, with only two outcomes: either fly into a dead corner or fly out of the frame.

Fortunately, Jiman Mandalino played well and did not miss penalties, and Hurricane Athletic led 3-2.

The crucial fourth round is here.

If the Estudiantes de La Plata missed a penalty and Atletico Hurricanes went on to hit them, the score would be 4-2, and the Hurricanes would win regardless of the outcome of the fifth round.

Therefore, if the Estudiantes de La Plata missed the penalty and the Atletico Hurricanes scored in this round, then the fifth round would not have to be freed at all, and the Hurricanes would have won 4-2 directly, and Damonte, the fourth player in the Estudiantes de La Plata, was quite pressured.

He stood in front of the penalty spot, took several breaths in a row, and then without looking up at Marcos Dias, who was repeatedly jumping, he rushed up and directly kicked the ball to the left side of the goal.

He didn’t make any feints about the ball, so he was judged in the right direction by goalkeeper Marcos Dias, and he flew sideways and successfully touched the ball with his fingertips.

The Damont was so powerful that Marcos Díaz touched the ball but couldn’t completely poke it off the post.

The ball only changed its line slightly, and eventually flew into the goal against the upright.

Damonte holds aside hope for the estudiantes de la Plata.

The pressure was on the Hurricane side.

The Hurricanes came out in the fourth round with midfielder Federico Bismara, who was previously the Hurricanes’ main back, and was now squeezed onto the bench by Villade, who played outside the system, and could only occasionally take advantage of the central defender or back.

It may be that the game is played less, the psychological pressure is also high, trying to play a dead corner Bismara did not play well, his push rolled directly out of the bottom line, failed to hit the goal frame.

After a first-round error by Estudiantes de La Plata, Atletico Hurricanes also made a mistake in the fourth round, missing a penalty, and the two sides are now tied 3-3 on penalties.

The fifth round of the penalty shootout is here.

If this round is tied, the sixth round will start to be a tiebreaker. A draw will continue to the next round, but if one side misses and the other scores, it will be a direct ball fight.

Therefore, the pressure on both sides of the fifth round of free throws is also quite high. Generally speaking, the players who make free throws in the fifth round are players with high psychological quality and a high probability of withstanding the pressure to send the ball in.

Villard was placed fifth by Mario Binko to make his finale and ensure no mistakes in the final round.

However, it was the players of the Estudiantes de La Plata who appeared first.

The opponent fielded their captain, central defender Jonajan Shunk.

As a central defender, Jonajan Shunk’s technique is not very good, so he did not choose to shoot smartly, but after a long run, he directly came with a heavy cannon to bombard the goal, trying to use unrivaled power to score.

His heavy cannon kick hit the door, really played at a good level, very powerful, fast, and with a relatively tricky angle.

However, Hurricanes goalkeeper Marcos Dias predicted the shift in advance, and judged the direction of his shot, flew to the right side of the goal a moment before he touched the ball, and then just touched the ball with his palm, and then forcefully lifted it to the outside, and the ball was saved off the post and flew out of the bottom line.

“Wow…”

“The ball was saved!”

“Marcos Díaz has made a contribution!”

“He threw the heavy cannon of Estudiante de La Plata captain Jonajan Shunk off the line.”

“The score is still 3-3, but the Hurricanes Athletic team has not made a penalty in the fifth round.”

“If the Hurricanes make a penalty, the Hurricanes will win the penalty shootout 4-3 and win the quarterfinals and advance to the semifinals of the Copa Argentino.”

“Let’s see who the last person on the Hurricanes to play is.”

Then, after some crazy celebrations, everyone saw a man wearing the number 33 jersey out of the team.

It was none other than Alan Villade.

“The last person on the Hurricanes to take the penalty was Alan Villade.”

“Although it is a back, Villade’s psychological quality is obvious to all, quite mature and quite stable.”

“The Hurricanes put Willard last to play, which means the finale.”

“Let’s see if Willard can withstand the pressure, send this goal in, lead Hurricane Athletic to upset again, beat the A-A powerhouse and advance to the final four!”

The La Plata Estudiantes home team fans in the stands, booed Villade loudly, trying to interfere with him.

But Villard was undisturbed in the slightest, and he slowly walked towards the penalty area while mentally planning how to kick.

When he walked to the penalty area, he looked at the opposing goalkeeper Hilario Navarro, who was nervous in his body and eyes, and made a decision in his heart.

Then, in the suffocating air, in the anticipation of countless Hurricanes fans, players, coaches, and boos from home fans, Willard glanced firmly at the lower right corner, and then after a long run, he just kicked the ball out lightly and went straight to the center.

Spoon penalty!

Villard actually sent a spoonful penalty at such a suffocating moment.

If the goalkeeper reacts a little slower and stands in the middle of the goal line, he can easily hold the ball.

But in fact, goalkeeper Hilario Navarro made a prediction the moment before Willard touched the ball and pounced in the bottom right corner.

It was the glance that Willard shot into the lower right corner that confused the goalkeeper, plus Willard gave the impression that he was a beast waist and a butcher, and would definitely shoot vigorously. Therefore, the bewildered Hilario Navarro did not hesitate to save before Villard kicked the ball out.

Unexpectedly, Villard actually came to a light spoon hanging shot at such a suffocating tense time, which stunned Hilario Navarro, who had misjudged in advance and pounced on the right, and could only sit on the ground sideways and turn his head to watch the ball into the net.

The commentators all shouted excitedly while being surprised:

“Gooooooooooooooooooooooal……”

“The ball went in!”

“Oh my God!”

“Spoon Shot!”

“Alan Villard from Hurricane Athletic had the audacity to kick a spoonful shot in the suffocating final penalty shoot-out, tricked the goalkeeper and put the ball into the goal!”

“Hurricane Athletic won.”

“With a penalty shootout of 4-3 and an aggregate score of 6-5, Atletico Hurricanes once again broke out and defeated the Escoutémar de La Plata, a strong team from the First Division, to advance to the last four of the Copa Argentina.”

“A great victory, a hard-fought victory.”

“Atletico Hurricanes equalised after conceding the ball first in both regular season and extra time, dragging the game into a penalty shoot-out and advancing to the final four of the Copa Argentine through a penalty shootout.”

‘The best game of this game is undoubtedly Alan Villade, who has won the best of the game in a row, and this game is undoubtedly the best of the game.

“Not only did he secure the Hurricanes defense during regular game time, but he also scored a tie-breaker goal in the 116th minute of overtime to help Hurricanes score a penalty shootout.”

“And in the final round of the penalty shootout, it was Villard who withstood the pressure and came with an elegant spoon penalty to help Atletico Hurricanes beat the Estudiantes de La Plata and advance to the next round of the Copa Argentina.”

“Atleteo Hurricanes have reached the semi-finals of the Copa Argentine and are only one step away from the final.”

“Atletico Hurricanes from the second division have undoubtedly become the biggest dark horse in this season’s Argentine Cup.”

“Whether they can continue to perform the dark horse miracle and eventually advance to the final or even reach the top podium, let’s wait and see.”
