Ai Luo's continuous cycling breakthrough was originally to create a set kick. Petrovic, who had a significant decline in physical fitness, couldn't keep up with the rhythm of his head. As a result, he stretched his foot slowly for half a beat, and kicked Ai Luo on the supporting foot behind him. What happened next was normal. The referee blew his whistle, and the Chinese team won a direct free kick about 34 meters away from the goal.
The Serbian national TV commentator shook his head and said: "The young Petrovic has to pay for his youth. The defense just now should not stretch his legs and try to hook the ball to clear the siege. He is tall and long and he only needs to control Ai's inside cut or the goal route to complete the task. Hey..."
"In the 804th minute of the game, Ai helped the Chinese team get a free kick in the frontcourt. It is a good choice to try a set kick when Serbia is retreating from all sides. Facing a densely defended team, they can only try long-range shots and set kicks. Relying on crosses or penetration in the middle of the game is simply not feasible..."
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray sat up straight and analyzed.
Lineker, who was already excited just now, is now full of energy, as if he saw Ai Luo's direct free kick. He said excitedly: "Ai has no record of direct free kick in this World Cup. Will this be his fifth goal in this World Cup? It is really a set kick that people look forward to!"
"...In the past, he gave us the impression that he was a big-time player. When his team fell into a situation where he needed someone to stand up, he would stand up bravely. This is the style that a leading star should have, so let us look forward to this free kick from the Chinese team at this time." Lineker saw the straight-line distance given by the camera, and changed his voice: "Oh? 34 meters? This is very suitable for Ai's free kick characteristics!"
Zhan Jun saw the data given by the big screen, and his voice was octave higher: "Ai Luo created an excellent frontcourt free kick for the team through his personal ability, about 34 meters away from the goal, and the position is slightly to the left. It is very suitable for Ai Luo to take the penalty, and he has also scored a lot of direct free kicks in this position, which is worth looking forward to!!"
"That's right! This free kick is totally worth the anticipation of all of us. Let's see Ai Luo's unique skill at the Wimber Bella Stadium!!" Shen Fangjian added appropriately.
Reminiscent of the fact that there are many fake fans in front of the TV who may have become fans because of the World Cup craze, Zhan Jun gave some relevant knowledge to the fake fans in front of the TV: "From the beginning of Aiello's career, he has scored 46 direct free kicks, so many foreign media describe Ai Luo as a player who completely takes set kicks as penalties! I believe Ai Luo will withstand the pressure and score the goal with only 5 minutes left in the regular time!"
Whether it is a fake fan sitting in front of the TV popularizing science knowledge, or a real fan who has been paying attention to football, they all have full confidence in Ai Luo's free kick under Zhan Jun's explanation!
How many can take a set kick as a penalty?
Too little!
Although the Chinese fans in the stands couldn’t hear the conversation between Zhan Jun and Shen Fangjian, they belonged to the team at the scene and were full of expectations for every attack of the Chinese team. The same was true for the direct free kick taken by Ai Luo this time. In addition, in their impression, Ai Luo had scored a lot of direct free kicks. Perhaps... this is really an excellent opportunity!
So the sound they erupted was one point higher than before, shaking the entire Mbobela Stadium.
I don’t know whether it is the confidence of the Chinese fans that has affected the Serbian players on the field, or whether Aiello standing in front of the football interferes with the mentality of the Serbian defensive players. The wall is always slow, especially goalkeeper Stojkovic’s performance is particularly obvious. He insisted on forming a five-man wall 34 meters away from the goal.
His performance also impresses the mentality of coach Antić on the sidelines. Aiello's level of set kicks can be said to be one of the best in world football. Although this free kick exceeded 30 meters, he still felt very unsafe. Standing on the sidelines nervously with arms crossed.
※※※
Seeing that his teammates were very nervous, Petrovic, who was fouled because of his declining physical fitness, felt a little guilty. He knew that if he hadn't stretched his feet rashly, the defense just now would have been quite successful. After all, there were people everywhere at the front of the penalty area. It is impossible for Ai Luo to practice with the ball in a very small area alone. Five or six people broke into the penalty area and scored...
Waiting in front of the TV, the England internationals followed the Serbian wall and subconsciously became nervous.
In their minds, they also do not want the Chinese team to be eliminated.
So they are full of anticipation for Ai Luo's direct free kick. In the past many games, they have seen the magic of Ai Luo, and they hope to see it again at this moment.
Ashley Cole, who has the best relationship with Aiello, turned his head and asked Lampard: "Frank, what do you think is the probability of Ai's free kick scoring?"
"It's hard to say!" Lampard frowned and said, "But the hope is very high."
"F-uck! If you say it, you don't say it!" In addition to Ashley Cole, Terry and Joe Cole also raised their middle fingers at Lampard.
But the next moment, they concentrated their attention on the TV screen.
Because... the referee blew the kick-off whistle.
After the referee blew his whistle, the entire stand became strangely quieter, as if the volume of the sound had suddenly dropped by more than half.
Although Wu Xi is also standing behind the football, everyone knows that he is just a cover. No one can compete with Ai Luo when he is in the right position!
Ai Luo took a deep breath, and then let out a long breath before starting to run.
But just as he took the first step, the referee blew his whistle.
It turns out... the tense Serbian wall moved half a meter forward without the referee noticing.
After such a fuss, the Serbian players dawdled for nearly half a minute before retreating 9 meters.
This also aroused the dissatisfaction of many fans at the scene, and Lineker in the commentary seat frowned, and said worriedly: "Fans who often watch football live broadcasts should understand that all the masters who take set kicks are all done in a pinch, without the slightest sloppy, but now after such a toss by the Serbian players, Ai's foot feel is probably not as good as before..."
At this moment, the referee blew his whistle again.
Lineker then held his breath, his eyes fixed on the big screen.
※※※
The whistle of the referee and the slowness of the Serbian players did have a certain impact on Ai Luo, but Ai Luo's personal attributes are super strong, as high as 99 game input can keep him 100% in every second, as for those interferences... It is destined to only become his stepping stone.
Ai Luo slightly raised his head and glanced at the direction of the goal. The goalkeeper Stojkovic was standing close to the middle of the goal. He knew... he was worried about the near corner!
The sound in the stands was much quieter, and everyone's attention was once again on Ai Luo.
At this moment, he is the most concerned person in the world.
Ai Luo habitually exhaled and started running.
One step, two steps...
Chinese fans prayed at this moment: "Go in!!"
The Serbian fans prayed: "NO!!"
The prayers on both sides are like dark and light forces intertwined, inseparable...
Ai Luo's third step is extraordinarily large, and the live director also gave him a close-up shot.
Fans watching the live TV broadcast could clearly see that Ai Luo's left foot was stepping hard about 9 centimeters away from the football. His left arm was naturally spread out to maintain his balance.
There was a muffled sound of 'bang'.
The human wall composed of five Serbian players jumped up subconsciously, but no one hit the football...
Seeing this, Serbian head coach Antić felt a little bit of joy in his heart. The human wall must not have retreated enough. 9 meters, and Kolarov, the shortest human wall, is 15 meters. The height of the football that crosses the human wall is at least nearly three meters...
So……
But, not so.
After the football jumped over the human wall, it was like a precise cruise missile bombarding the target. The goalkeeper Stojkovic shrank his pupils and shouted that it was not good.
According to his prediction, the football should fly to the near corner, but what he didn't expect was that the football flew to the far corner.
So he could only hastily move to the far corner, but... how could the speed of his feet be as fast as the running speed of a football?
Just at the second step of Stojkovic's twisted movement, the football has already flown to the penalty spot...
He rose into the air with the inertia force brought by his movement, and his body stretched extremely in mid-air, but it was a pity that it didn't help him in his save. His right hand was still a full meter away from the football.
After a few tenths of a second, the football went straight to the upper right corner of the goal under the attention of all the fans.
In the next moment, huge cheers broke out at the scene, and all Chinese fans raised their arms and shouted! !
Zhan Jun from the on-site commentary shouted excitedly: "The goal has been scored! Ai Luo's earth-shattering direct free kick broke through the gate guarded by the Serbian goalkeeper Stojkovic! A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops are coming to meet each other! Ai Shen broke the sky with one kick!! His unique skill scored for the first time on South African soil! Helped the Chinese team tie the score to 2:3!!"
Ai Luo, who scored the goal, did not celebrate, but chose to rush to the goal to get the ball out early and kick off the ball as quickly as possible.
There are less than 5 minutes left in the game, so we must grasp it well!
