When the football hits the goal.
Unlike before.
Li Shiguang, who had been standing on the sidelines, did not appear overly excited.
He simply stood quietly on the sidelines, his face expressionless, his arm raised high above his head, arrogantly making that "3" gesture that could infuriate the Lyon fans in the stands behind him.
This scene was not only captured on the large screen above the Olympic Park stadium, but also broadcast on the computers and televisions of countless fans in their homes via television networks.
"Haha!! Lee is really arrogant!!" Reinkel finished his celebration and had just sat down when he saw Lee Shiguang's face. "I bet he's still thinking about his promise to end this series in one round!!"
Hunt nodded with a smile: "That's one of the reasons I like this guy. In my opinion, sometimes he's even more arrogant than Mourinho!"
“Because he has the arrogance to back it up…” Jon was still savoring Bale’s long run. “Think back to that goal just now, and you’ll know how terrifying it was! From the moment Bale received Kaká’s pass to the moment he kicked the ball into Lyon’s goal, it only took a few seconds. Lee completely exploited his weakness… Houllier is in for a rough time now.”
It seems to be to confirm Jon's statement.
It also seems that Bale's goal just now was too much of a blow to the Lyon players.
Less than a minute after the last goal, while Houllier was still sitting on the sidelines discussing the next move with the Knicks, the situation on the court changed again.
····
For the sake of the bonus... well... to help their manager vent his anger quickly, the Leeds United players didn't spend too much time celebrating the goal. A group of them simply hugged Bale and then jogged back to their half to take their positions.
soon.
Osato blew the whistle to restart the game.
Lyon kicks off.
Benzema passed the ball to Govou, who then passed it back to Juninho outside the center circle.
Seeing Ibrahimovic and Adriano rushing towards him, Juninho turned and passed the ball back to Squillaci on the defensive line.
Lyon's choices seem perfectly normal; there's really nothing wrong with them.
As for who is abnormal?
That was Ibrahimovic, who had almost reached Squillaci the moment he got the ball! And it wasn't just Ibrahimovic; Adriano, Bale, and Ribery all pushed up to Lyon's defensive line at that moment.
What's going on here?!
Squillaci had just received the pass when he looked up and his mind went completely blank, because what appeared in front of him was a tall figure wearing a white jersey!
Is this fucking reasonable?!
Confused as I may be, this is a game, and if the ball isn't passed out soon, it'll be dangerous!
Squillaci's mind raced.
With Leeds United players on both sides, he couldn't just pass the ball across recklessly in that position. Just as he was struggling with this decision, he suddenly saw Toulalan emerge from behind Ibrahimovic, waving and asking for the ball.
Squillaci's face lit up with joy, and without hesitation, he passed the ball diagonally.
But the next second...
The joy on Squillaci's face vanished.
Before Toulalan could receive his pass, Squillaci saw Kaká dart out from behind Toulalan, rush in front of him, intercept his pass, and in doing so, bring the unprepared Toulalan down on the grass!
"Beautiful interception!!" Jon slammed his hand on the table, speaking rapidly, "Kaka intercepted the ball and brought it to the edge of the penalty area, this is his zone, he can shoot... Kaka didn't shoot, he passed the ball back to Bale on the left!"
After intercepting the ball, Kaka quickly dribbled forward.
In less than two seconds, he was already in a position where he could shoot.
But just when everyone thought Kaka was going to shoot himself, he pushed the ball with the outside of his left foot to Bale, who was already waiting in the penalty area, completely unmarked and in a better position!
Bale, who had just scored a goal, did not waste his teammate's selfless assist.
Once the ball rolls past you and comes to the side of your preferred foot, you don't hesitate to lift your foot and shoot!
A powerful low shot sent the ball flying towards the far post of Lyon's goal!
Coupet made another save attempt, but just like a minute earlier, his hand did not touch the ball.
The football skimmed along the grass, struck the inside of the far post of the Lyon goal, and bounced into the net!
Less than a minute after the previous goal, Bale scored his second goal, extending Leeds United's lead to 1-4!
····
"Wow!!! Gareth Bale!!! Less than a minute later!!! He's extended Leeds United's lead again!!!" Lineker, his face flushed, jumped up and raised his arms in triumph. "1-4!!! I can confidently declare that the game is over!!! Lyon can't possibly equalize!!!"
Jon rolled his eyes at the smug Reinkel, somewhat speechless.
Even without stoppage time, the game still has more than half an hour to go.
How could a commentator say something like "opening champagne at halftime"?!
He hadn't even had a chance to speak up and make amends for his old partner.
Hunt surprisingly spoke first, and was even more arrogant than Lineker: "No, no, no! Gary, I think you're wrong! The game isn't over yet, Leeds United can still score a few more goals! Didn't Lee say that this round would end the whole series? We've only got four away goals so far, that's far from enough!"
After hearing Hunter's words, Jon rolled his eyes to the sky and took off the headphones on his head.
Fuck you!! I don't care who it is!!
····
As the football bounced off the goalpost and into the net, the Olympic Park, which had been teeming with cheers, fell into a brief silence.
In such a short time, the opponent scored another goal.
Not to mention the Lyon players on the field didn't react in time.
Even the home team fans in the stands felt confused.
The script for the first half wasn't written like this.
Are these dejected and demoralized players standing on the field now the same Lyon team that was playing a back-and-forth game with their opponents in the first ten minutes of the match?
These fans were really confused. They looked at each other, wanting to cheer for the team and tell them not to give up, but they couldn't bring themselves to say it!
My God!
Please tell me this isn't real!
Many fans in the stands felt like they were having a nightmare.
But on the big screen above the stadium...
The four fingers that the devilish man stretched out were telling them something.
All of this.
It's true!
