Chapter 137: The Battle of Britain and France (5) 10 Minutes of Shine
Wang Li practiced this one-on-one passing method for a long time before he could use it. Although the fans in the stadium were very shocked by this passing, Wang Li was full of gratitude in his heart.
If Makelele had not seen this kind of passing method for the first time and was stunned the moment Wang Li passed him, Wang Li would not have been able to shake him off easily. Just now, if Makelele had just hit him lightly, Wang Li would definitely fall directly on the court, and the referee would most likely not make any comments because his movements were too fancy!
In any case, he succeeded this time. After Wang Li dribbled past Makelele, he changed direction and moved diagonally to the left, crossing the penalty area line. But at this time, he was surrounded by French players.
Faced with this situation, Wang Li showed a smile. This was the effect he hoped to see. As long as he could attract the attention of the French defensive players, his teammates would have a chance. Although he was not very good at passing the ball, a practitioner of internal martial arts could control his body very easily.
At the moment of being double-teamed, Wang Li passed the ball, which quickly passed through Thuram's legs and Sylvester's right side, and rolled towards Rooney. At this time, there was only one French defender beside Rooney, which was a good opportunity!
Even Eriksen, who was calm on the sidelines, stood up excitedly!
However, Rooney is not Harrison, and there is no tacit understanding between him and Wang Li. Just now he thought Wang Li would definitely lose the ball this time, until the ball rolled to him, he reacted, and hurriedly swung his right foot, and the ball flew towards the goal.
But this shot was weak and the ball was easily caught by goalkeeper Barthes.
Seeing that the ball did not go in, Rooney forced a smile and gave Wang Li a thumbs up, "Alan, great." Wang Li did not say anything, patted Rooney on the shoulder, and ran straight to the backcourt.
…………
The game has entered its final stage. Both the French and English teams want to score one more goal. One more point is unacceptable to anyone.
Campbell ended France's counterattack with a violent flying tackle. With a big kick, the ball returned to Wang Li's feet, but Vieira was not to be outdone. He used his body to push Wang Li away and directly and forcefully snatched the ball.
Pires dribbled the ball from the right, quickly changed direction and got rid of Lampard. Just as he was about to pass the ball, he was tackled directly onto the grass by Beckham who was defending behind him. Beckham undoubtedly got a yellow card.
Zidane kicked the ball towards the England team's penalty area. Rooney once again used his physical advantage to squeeze out Trezeguet and cleared the ball out of the sideline with his head.
"Come on! Attack!"
The cheers from the stands continued, and as the game drew to a close, they intensified. In the final few minutes, France and England engaged in a fierce battle for the ball in the midfield. The continuous transfer of ball possession also showed how exciting the game was, as both teams were unwilling to get only one point.
…………
In the 89th minute of the game, Wang Li dribbled the ball again from the right, and after passing Gallas, he did not continue dribbling the ball. Instead, he kicked the ball to Beckham who was following next to him. Beckham got the ball and kicked a high ball directly towards the French team's small penalty area.
At this time, Rooney was sandwiched between two French defenders and had no power to head the ball. Pires kicked the ball high into the air and it fell into the center circle.
Lampard pushed Zidane aside and headed the ball to Hargreaves. Before the French players could come over to grab the ball, Hargreaves passed the ball to Beckham.
"Pass it, David." Beckham was about to kick the ball to the middle when he heard a shout. He turned around and saw Wang Li shaking off Makelele's close defense at the front of the penalty area and running to the left. Beckham passed the ball without thinking.
Actually, Wang Li's position was not good, and the gap between his running position and those world-class stars was too big. And since he fooled Makelele with a juggling move, the ferocious backcourt general seemed to be against him. As long as he came to the French team's half, Makelele would come over to defend him closely.
However, Wang Li will not be depressed because of this, because he has the physical advantage. You know, he has just been on the court for a few minutes. With his abundant physical strength, as long as the ball is at the feet of the England team, he will keep running near the penalty area and will always run out of position.
This time, when he received the pass, he was already at the left corner of the penalty area. Makelele was following behind him. As long as he turned around to pass or shoot, there would definitely be a loophole and it would be likely to be intercepted, and his position was not suitable for shooting.
Of course Wang Li also realized this. After getting the ball, he first glanced at the time on the big screen. He did not turn around at all. Instead, he followed the direction of the ball's roll, and with a touch of his left foot, the ball changed direction and was passed to Gary Neville on the left.
"Pass it!" Wang Li shouted at Gary Neville before he could stop the ball. He just checked the time and saw that the game was already in the 90th minute. With the extra time, England would not have many chances to attack, which made him a little anxious.
Although he usually had a good relationship with Wang Li, Gary Neville was a little annoyed by Wang Li's yelling. However, he still passed the ball over. As a famous star, he knew that the game was the most important thing on the court.
At this time, Makelele was still following Wang Li's left side. Wang Li blocked his position and prevented him from stealing the ball halfway. After receiving the ball, he turned around and shot directly with his right foot without thinking!
Neither the fans nor the players on the field expected that Wang Li would shoot directly after receiving the pass. You have to know that his position was at least 20 meters away from the goal, and at a diagonal direction. It would be difficult to score even if there was no one defending this position.
Under everyone's gaze, the ball almost drew a straight line in the sky and rushed straight into the upper left corner of the French team's goal. Goalkeeper Barthes had no reaction at all.
The referee Collina was stunned for a moment before he reacted and blew the whistle to indicate that the goal was valid.
"Goooooo...al!! The ball goes in! It's Alan, Alan Wang, England's genius, oh no, the greatest genius of this century, dance master Alan Wang. In the final moments of the game, he helped England overtake the score! With a powerful long shot, the French team was helpless. Goalkeeper Barthes was stunned by the ball. He stood there like a poor woman who needed comfort, haha!!" On Sky TV, Graham was excited and crazy. Overtaking the score in the final moments of the game, is there anything more wonderful than this?
On the court, before Wang Li could react, he was pounced on and pinned down by Gary Neville. The England defender had completely forgiven Wang Li. For him, victory was the most important thing.
After a while, Wang Li enjoyed the treatment that Harrison often received after scoring a goal in the team. He was pinned down by a group of big men. Even Beckham, who usually behaved calmly, excitedly joined in the "celebration".
Wang Li got up from the grass only after the referee signaled to restart the game. His beautiful long hair had been completely crumpled into a mess and his white jersey had changed color. This ruined image completely satisfied the evil thoughts of his teammates next to him.
However, what they don’t know is that many beautiful female fans in England have cursed them countless times in their hearts…
…………
"Beep, beep, beep..." As the English players expected, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.
This fierce battle between England and France finally ended. In the end, England defeated the defending champion France 2:1. However, the happiest person in the team was Hargreaves, who did not perform much on the field.
"Hehe." On the way back, he always had this smile on his face.
Hargreaves did have reason to be happy, not only did he win today, but the tens of thousands of pounds he bet also definitely paid off, after all, England's odds were more than twice as high as France's.
For a modern miser like him, any free pounds would make him excited for a long time...
