Chapter 285
The Argentines were not given much time or opportunity to ease the tension, as Real Madrid's fast break quickly brought the game into their own rhythm.
Less than three minutes into the game, Cristiano shocked the Barcelona goalkeeper with a shot that hit the post.
Cristiano grinned regretfully, showing an embarrassed smile, applauded Modric who passed the ball to him, and gave a thumbs up.
Everyone put in all their effort, trying to quickly open up a scoring situation.
Barcelona's counterattack was also very clean and decisive. Wave after wave of attacks overwhelmed the fans in the stands. Cheers rose and fell one after another like waves.
After Suarez received the pass from Neymar, he successfully brought the ball into the penalty area. Messi immediately followed and quickly raised his hand to signal Suarez to take the ball.
Suarez passed the ball horizontally to Messi, the Argentine immediately accelerated, got the ball, turned his back to bypass Pepe who was defending, and shot!
The ball spun rapidly and went straight into the crowd in the stands!
There was a sudden burst of screams, roars and boos on the field.
Suarez and Neymar both gasped and looked at Messi.
Messi was obviously a little surprised. He failed to control the ball. This was a huge mistake. His feet seemed to be out of touch today.
Everyone has moments like this. The Argentines thought to themselves.
He raised his hand to apologize, but obviously, this was not the Camp Nou, this was the home ground of the Bernabeu, and the fans would not give up so easily.
No one bought it, and all kinds of boos filled the stadium, which undoubtedly made the players, who were already under great pressure, even more nervous and anxious.
"Messi missed a sure goal! The pressure on the scene was too great!" The commentator cried out regretfully upon seeing this.
His partner nodded and said: "Suarez's position is actually very suitable for shooting, but he obviously prefers to cooperate with Messi. It's a pity that Messi kicked this morale-boosting goal into the audience."
"The pressure on the scene is equally given to every player. Of course, I believe the pressure on the two focus players, Ronaldo and Messi, will be even more terrifying!" The partner then added quickly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Real Madrid's quick counterattack started on the field.
"Cristiano Ronaldo retreated to the backcourt, intercepted the ball and passed it directly to Casemiro!"
"Real Madrid's counterattack was too fast! Casemiro marched forward! Benzema, Bale!"
After Cristiano passed the ball to Casemiro, he immediately accelerated to catch up with the front court and quickly formed three offensive routes with Benzema and Bale.
Barcelona's defensive pressure suddenly increased!
"Casemiro passes the ball to Bale! Bale shoots! The ball hits the post and bounces out!"
"Also! Real Madrid pressed high to regain the ball, the ball was transferred again, Benzema dribbled the ball to the bottom line looking for a breakthrough—"
The ball was blocked and Real Madrid got a corner kick opportunity.
Kaka and James, who was also not included in the squad this time, sat together. They both leaned forward slightly from their seats at the same time.
Corner kick taken.
The ball fell to the front of the penalty area, but Cristiano was marked by Pique and had no chance to get close to the ball.
Puyol jumped up to head the ball and cleared it away.
Kaka and James sighed at the same time and leaned back to relax.
The ball flew towards the midfield, Ramos quickly returned to defense, and after another round of header and jump, the ball returned to Real Madrid.
After Ramos dribbled the ball a short distance away, he quickly looked up at the frontcourt, then passed the ball back to Kroos.
"Real Madrid needs to reorganize the attack, Kroos and Modric are looking for a breakthrough... Ronaldo ran back to receive the ball! Barcelona's defense was immediately pulled apart with the Portuguese's running!"
"Ronaldo quickly passed the ball back to Kroos! Then he quickly moved to the side! Kroos kicked the ball to Benzema in the middle!"
"Benzema dribbled the ball forward! Good position! But Barcelona's defense also retreated very quickly! Benzema's shooting space was fleeting!"
Benzema did not slow down. He continued to dribble forward calmly. Just when the goalkeeper and the defensive players thought that Benzema was going to force a shot, the Frenchman suddenly made a sideways pass and quickly pushed the ball to his side.
Cristiano flashed forward from behind Benzema at an extremely fast speed!
Lightning hits the door! ! !
It all happened in a flash! Amazingly fast! The combination is amazingly beautiful!
Benzema raised his hand happily and showed a big smile. He turned to Cristiano, ran over and jumped on Cristiano, as happy as if he had scored a goal.
The whole team cheered and celebrated!
"The ball goes in!! Ronaldo scores a lightning goal! Benzema assists! The Portuguese player shot from a small angle and the ball hit the blind corner of the goal!! It's so beautiful!!!" The commentator yelled, and the table in the broadcast room was slammed!
"This year's Ballon d'Or winner scored a goal in the first ten minutes against rival Barcelona! He is announcing to the entire football world that he is undoubtedly the best shooter!"
"The pressure is on Barcelona! Barcelona urgently needs someone to step up and equalize the game!"
Cristiano had just caught the overly happy Frenchman when Ramos, Varane and Pepe rubbed his head and pinched his face for a long time before he could get away.
He chuckled, ran to the sidelines facing Kaka, blew a kiss with his fingers together and flew towards the stands.
The fans in the stands suddenly screamed and cheered with extreme excitement, as if they had been favored by the king.
Mendes was also present at the game. He was sitting in Cristiano's stand box. He glanced down following Cristiano's movements and saw Kaka and James sitting in that direction.
Mendes rolled his eyes enormously to the sky.
In his heart, he was grateful that the Colombian was sitting there. Of course, he believed that more media would just think that he was blowing a kiss to the fans, but this did not prevent him, the agent who knew the inside story, from feeling nervous.
- Although Mendes' worried flying kiss after the game did not attract much attention, his eye roll after Cristiano's goal became the headline news that was captured and analyzed by many media, and news about his breakup with Cristiano was flying everywhere.
The stadium was filled with cheers, so overwhelming that even the boos from the Barcelona fans on the other side of the stands could not be heard.
But Messi knew clearly how many eyes were on them and on him, and needed his goals to prove something.
The more he thought about it, the greater the pressure and tension he felt, the more uncomfortable he felt all over. He felt like his throat was churning, and he had to use all his strength to swallow the stuff that was about to come out at any time.
Damn it, he thought, those annoying crazy fans who do nothing but boo.
The Argentine lowered his eyes and thought in his heart, clenching his fists. Those fans should really know that this trick might work on Ronaldo, but he is not that kind of "pressure player".
He hates this, and he can't use pressure as nourishment like Ronaldo does.
The game continues.
The situation on the field was completely opened up because of a goal scored by the Portuguese. Real Madrid already had the home advantage and played more smoothly. Overwhelming ball control appeared on this side of Real Madrid.
The Barcelona fans in the stadium cheered even harder for their team. When someone sang Cristiano's name, another Barcelona fan immediately sang Messi's name.
The man with high hopes was moving on the court, looking for his position and how he could help the team break through. He felt that countless pressures were about to crush him into the dust.
As the high-pitched shouts almost reached their climax, Messi felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat.
"vomit--!"
Messi suddenly stopped and retched on the field, so much so that the referee stopped the game.
"Oh my god, what is Messi doing?!"
“He vomited on the court!”
"What happened to him?! Let's take another look at his side!!"
"The replay showed that there were no players around Messi to interfere. He suddenly started retching on the field without any warning!"
Messi's face turned red and the team doctor quickly came forward to check on him, but of course, he didn't find any problems.
The Argentine was rinsing his mouth on the sidelines while pursing his lips tightly in embarrassment, thinking, of course he knew that the team doctor couldn't find out the problem, maybe he was too nervous, or maybe he had a cramp somewhere, he always had this urge when playing for the national team, he couldn't help but run to the bathroom.
After he indicated that he was fine, the game resumed.
This interruption was a bit long, which was an opportunity for Barcelona. After resuming the game, Barcelona mastered the rhythm of the game more quickly and brought the offensive to their side.
"Neymar dribbled into the penalty area! He was brought down!!"
"It's a penalty!"
"Neymar made a penalty! Messi took it!"
Messi didn't expect the chance to score a goal to come so quickly. When he stood at the penalty spot, he was even a little dazed.
It wasn't until he heard the cheers of the fans in the stadium that he slapped his face.
Run up and shoot.
"The ball goes in! Messi equalized the score with a penalty kick!"
At the end of the first half, Real Madrid and Barcelona were tied.
During the half-time break, the stands of the Bernabeu became a second battlefield, with fans of both teams spreading smoke everywhere.
The penalty equalizer could not dampen Real Madrid's morale, although it did give them some sense of pressure, but in the locker room, everyone still seemed to be at ease.
Ramos even had the mood to tease Cristiano's hair gel: "Give me some too, it looks like it can bring some good luck."
Cristiano sneered and threw the hairspray over: "You should have fixed your wild hair a long time ago."
Ramos smiled at himself in the mirror and made his hair look beautiful like a Wall Street business elite.
Led by the captain of Real Madrid, other gentlemen in the locker room also took up Cristiano's hairspray, so Cristiano had an empty tube of hairspray, but Real Madrid had an extra group of extremely exquisite and handsome main players.
When Zidane saw the team coming out, he was too lazy to say anything. He didn't need hair gel anyway. He thought to himself that if these young people continued to use hair gel like this, they would say goodbye to their hair earlier than him.
At the beginning of the second half, the hairstyle changes of Real Madrid's main players did attract a lot of attention, but there was not much time for gossip, as Real Madrid's offense was smoother and more beautiful than their hairstyle.
"Casemiro made a long pass from the backcourt! The ball flew directly over half the court! Cristiano quickly accelerated and almost formed a one-on-one attack and defense with Barcelona defender Gerard Pique!!"
"This is an interesting confrontation! The two who were once teammates at Manchester United now play for rival clubs. Let's see how Pique defends!"
Pique almost closely restricted Cristiano's turning. He really understood Cristiano and had insight into Cristiano's movements. He made it difficult for Cristiano to find a comfortable way to shoot even when he was almost at the front of the penalty area.
Pique glanced quickly at Cristiano, and the Portuguese happened to look up at him. The moment their eyes met, Cristiano suddenly winked at him.
"Ronaldo suddenly paused! Pique changed direction immediately! He predicted Ronaldo's change of direction!"
Changing speed and direction is one of Cristiano's specialties, and Pique reacted almost immediately.
However, after he suddenly changed direction, he saw that Cristiano did not change. Instead, he used his heel to lift the ball high up, and the ball flew high and fast towards their front!
Cristiano immediately accelerated, but Pique was too late to turn his body back. He was tricked by the Portuguese and stumbled to the ground. He could only watch Cristiano pass the ball to Cristiano three seconds later.
"Ronaldo has a one-on-one chance!! Shoot! The ball goes in!!!"
"Real Madrid has taken the lead again! Leading 2-1!!"
"Ronaldo used his heel to dribble past Pique! He passed the ball to himself three seconds later! This was truly amazing!! Ronaldo stopped the ball with his knee and shot directly, leaving the Barcelona goalkeeper no chance to fight back!"
Cristiano ran past Pique triumphantly and raised his chin slightly triumphantly towards the Catalan who was still lying on the ground.
Pique laughed out of anger. He really didn't expect Cristiano to do this.
Puyol pulled Pique up from the grass, patted Pique on the shoulder and shook his head: "It's not your fault. That Portuguese guy is really cunning and has too many ideas."
Pique nodded.
Cristiano quickly returned to the center circle with the ball and kicked off. He didn't want to waste even a minute. He felt that he was in great shape today and he and the team could score more goals.
Barcelona's counterattack started quickly after Messi dribbled past two people, but his shot directly hit a Real Madrid player and flew out in a refracted arc.
Marcelo quickly grabbed the ball and then ran towards the midfield with the ball.
At the same time, Real Madrid's trident also started quickly!
After Marcelo and Modric collided with each other twice in the midfield, he successfully passed the ball around the Barcelona players. The defense was almost entirely focused on Benzema, Bale and Cristiano, allowing Marcelo to almost smoothly break into the penalty area!
"Barcelona's defense made a mistake!! Marcelo almost had a one-on-one chance!!"
But Barcelona's goalkeeper has already taken the initiative. Facing the central defender's shooting skills, the goalkeeper decisively chose to take the initiative.
However, unexpectedly, Marcelo passed the ball directly to Cristiano who was lying in ambush on the side.
Cristiano rushed forward, so fast that he almost went over the ball.
Just when the commentator thought that the ball was going to be missed, Cristiano unexpectedly used his knee to lift the ball, passed the goalkeeper and into the net!
"GOOOOOOOOOOALLLL! It's Ronaldo again! Hat trick!!! Ronaldo actually caught the ball!!"
"Marcelo's assist! Helped Ronaldo achieve a hat trick against Barcelona!!"
Cristiano and Marcelo excitedly ran all the way to the sidelines. Marcelo threw himself on Cristiano, pointing at the support banners on the stands and laughing happily: "See, Chris! I bet that old Blatter's face must be green now!"
"Commander? I don't think this is a derogatory term." Cristiano raised his eyebrows and saluted Marcelo. His serious look made Marcelo salute in return.
Cristiano's response was undoubtedly the most powerful counterattack against the FIFA President. Such an unruly and rebellious move almost instantly ignited the entire audience!
"Ronaldo!" "Ronaldo!" "Ronaldo!"
At this moment, Cristiano was like their king, and the whole stadium was boiling.
Kaka felt the enthusiasm around him among the fans. Cristiano had such charm that he could easily make everyone crazy about him.
The Colombian sitting next to him also happily shouted "Ronaldo" like the fans, as if infected by the surrounding atmosphere. Kaka was two seconds slower, and then caught up with the rhythm -
"Ronaldo!"
"SIU——!"
Real Madrid's 3-1 lead almost made the game a foregone conclusion.
In order to build up strength for the next Champions League, the Barcelona coach replaced Messi and Neymar in the last 80 minutes.
Suarez is still on the court. He is the offensive end of Barcelona. He can score goals and pass the ball. His shots in the penalty area are of high quality. However, he did not have many shooting opportunities in this game.
The next round of attack started quickly after a minute. Cristiano intercepted the ball from Suarez's feet on the wing. His foot stretched out quickly and neatly, like a ghost, and then he took the ball away. He passed the ball with the outside of his foot, drawing a big arc across the left and right half of the field directly in the frontcourt!
"Ronaldo's super long cruising pass!! This time the ball found Modric!"
"Modric chose to shoot directly outside the penalty area! It was a very powerful and fast ball! But it was confiscated by the goalkeeper!"
"Real Madrid played very happily and easily after taking the lead... Everyone wanted to go up and shoot the ball haha."
“…”
When the final whistle of the game blew, Cristiano responded to Blatter's taunting with a hat trick.
His undisguised conversation with Marcelo on the field was also analysed by lip-reading experts, and for a moment everyone pointed the finger at the FIFA president.
