PFC Chapter 381

Chapter 381
On the sidelines, Mourinho's face was livid, but to everyone's surprise, Mourinho didn't make any moves. After the conflict between Lin Dong and Ronaldo broke out, Mourinho just stood on the sidelines with a livid face. Now that the game has restarted, Mourinho still stood on the sidelines without any action.
Outsiders are puzzled, but Mourinho himself knows very well that it's not that he doesn't want to move, but that he can't move. If Ronaldo is replaced, the conflict between him and Ronaldo will explode. By then, the locker room may get out of control.
As for Lin Dong, Mourinho is also very clear that Lin Dong has already done a good job in this game. He not only scored a goal, but also assisted one. In the following time, he was perfect for Ronaldo and the entire team's offense.
Before the game, and even during the intermission, Mourinho himself emphasized that this game will play more on Lin Dong. To put it bluntly, Lin Dong is the core.
But what about Ronaldo and his Portuguese gang?He didn't follow his tactics at all, and even in the second half, he almost didn't pass the ball to Lin Dong.
Mourinho can see Lin Dong's devotion to the team. His patience to this point is entirely for the sake of the outcome of this game.
Therefore, Mourinho can't let go of the grind and kill the donkey. He knows even more that if he really replaces Lin Dong at this time, then maybe he, Mourinho and even the entire Real Madrid will lose Lin Dong completely.
Lin Dong has no shortage of buyers. Mourinho is also aware of this. Let alone 500 million, if he is in another club, he will choose to sell even if the price is twice as high, because Lin Dong is worth the price.
What's more, just now, Raiola put pressure on Real Madrid. Under such circumstances, Barcelona must have become interested in Lin Dong. Although Mourinho knew that Lin Dong would not choose Barcelona even if he transferred, only he thought that he could definitely leave Real Madrid.
Under the circumstances, Mourinho can only pin his hopes on the professional ethics of the two, and on Lin Dong's key scoring ability. After doing such a thing, Lin Dong must perform.
Mourinho knows Lin Dong, and he also knows Ronaldo. This proud compatriot definitely wants to score goals to counter Lin Dong. Therefore, Mourinho can only rely on Lin Dong and Ronaldo now.
On the field, in order to prove themselves, Lin Dong and Ronaldo also fought hard. When Barcelona was attacking, Lin Dong even retreated directly to his own hinterland and participated in the defense.
And when Barcelona's offensive shot was high, Lin Dong immediately turned around and rushed forward, but Barcelona's reaction was also very fast. When Lin Dong rushed forward, Busquets and Mascherano were also desperately retreating. The situation of Ronaldo on the other side was similar to that of Lin Dong.
Seeing that Barcelona retreated so quickly, Real Madrid gave up the idea of playing a fast break. Casillas gave the ball to Marcelo. Marcelo took the ball across the half and encountered the defense before passing the ball to Alonso in the middle.
Alonso continued to dribble forward, encountered Harvey, and knocked Khedira across. The latter did not dribble and passed it straight to Modric. When the ball came to Modric's feet, the Croatian smiled bitterly.
Professional ethics, this is something that professional players have, but no one knows how many there are, and this thing is not a constant value, it changes with the change of people's heart.
But soon, Modric put this idea behind him, and locked his eyes on the frontcourt. Since he couldn't know Lin Dong and Ronaldo's inner feelings, it depends on the position of the two, and he will pass the ball to whoever is in a better position.
The bulldozer-like advance was Lin Dong's performance. The absolute crushing of his body and strength allowed Lin Dong to quickly enter the restricted area of Real Barcelona.
On the other side, Ronaldo is still running, but Adriano and Alves are both full-backs. The most important thing for full-backs is speed, so it is obviously difficult for Ronaldo to get rid of the two.
Passing the ball, Modric passed the ball. In this case, Modric's choice of target is already obvious. He hoisted the ball into the penalty area again and passed it to the top of Lin Dong's head.
However, after passing the ball, Modric did not stop, and quickly ran to the Barcelona penalty area, and his behavior finally reaped the first shot after coming off the bench.
Because Lin Dong didn't attack the goal, he chose to knock the ball back to Modric who ran up after passing the ball. This is not because Lin Dong wants to please Modric, but his judgment in this situation.
Lin Dong can forcibly head the goal, but Lin Dong knows that the result is a goal kick for Barcelona. Lin Dong is not a selfish person, even when he was in Lazio, Lin Dong was never selfish.
He has his own judgment and what choice to make under what circumstances. Undoubtedly, this time, Lin Dong made the decision to pass the ball to Modric, because Modric who ran up was in a better position and had been a teammate for several months. Lin Dong also knew that Modric's long shots were very good.
"Lin Dong~~~No~~~ He didn't choose to attack the goal with a header. He actually knocked back. He knocked the ball back to Modric who ran up after passing the ball."
"Shooting~~~~Modric's long shot~~~The ball is very fast~~~Valdés~~~The Barcelona goalkeeper made a contribution, Lin Dong's knockback was unexpected, and Modric's long shot was also quite decisive."
"However, Valdez still blocked it, relying on his amazing reaction, he flew to block the ball out of the baseline with one hand~~~ oh oh oh~~~ What's going on?"
"Lin Dong~~~ Lin Dong, what is he doing? Is he going to take this corner kick?" After confirming the corner kick, Lin Dong took the first step to hold the ball in his arms, and then walked towards Modric.
"Luka~~~Leave me the corner kick." Modric originally thought that Lin Dong was going to take the ball and hand it to him, but instead he said that.
"Are you sure?" Modric quickly put away the surprise on his face.
"Of course~~~ But I need your cooperation~~~ You are outside, and you can nod when you see my gesture later." After finishing speaking, Lin Dong took the ball and walked directly to the corner area.
That's right, Lin Dong used the corner shot card before the game, 50.00% chance, that is to say, the probability of scoring or not scoring is also [-]-[-], such a probability is completely a gamble.
And this corner kick is different from others, there is only one chance, that is to say, it can only be kicked once, and success or failure depends on this time.
Seeing Lin Dong's behavior, the Barcelona fans immediately mocked Lin Dong mercilessly, "Does this guy still want to score directly from a corner kick?"
On the other hand, Mourinho looked at Lin Dong thoughtfully, because based on his understanding of Lin Dong, Lin Dong would hardly do useless things. After all, Lin Dong was still very similar to him in some respects. He chased victory, and Lin Dong chased goals.
