Chapter 137 Kissing the Goddess
Although Benzema missed the goal, Chang Sheng saw the faint smile of the goddess of luck in it.
This encouraged him.
This shows that the goddess of fortune has begun to favor him.
He clenched his fists and kept repeating: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up..."
In the next thirty-ninth minute, Lazio came again.
This time it was replaced by David Silva.
Silva dribbled the ball from the wing to the center and dribbled the ball laterally. He made a move to shoot directly outside the penalty area, just like he did a few times before. The Celtics central defender immediately rushed over with his body Block his long shots.
At this moment, David Silva buckled the football towards the penalty area!
The tall and bulky Celtic central defender couldn't react, and David Silva dunked it.
But this can only be regarded as an ordinary extraordinary.
Then David Silva's actions repeatedly reflected his ability and flexibility.
David Silva adjusted faster than anyone else!
He spiked the ball with his right foot, only adjusted one step, and his right foot touched the ball again, then flicked the football to the right, and at the same time, he jumped up.
Just when he jumped up, one foot shoveled over the ground!
It can be seen how timely David Silva's action is. If he is a little late, he will either be shoveled by the opponent or his leg will be shoveled by the opponent. Either way, it's not good.
David Silva, who jumped up and dodged the tackle, landed right behind the ball.
He didn't adjust, and buckled the football to the right again. At the same time, he got short and just dribbled the ball between the two big guys!
※※※
"Oh oh oh oh!! David Silva! Wonderful solo performance! Superb in one go!"
The narrator shouted excitedly.
There was also a huge cheer from the Lazio fans in the stands,
Shout out to David Silva.
Seeing David Silva tossing and turning in a square inch, he passed the other four in an instant. Chang Sheng's excitement.
He felt that the goddess was about to kiss his lips!
※※※
When David Silva passed the ball between the two big men, he was still disturbed and staggered a little.
So when he came out with the ball, his pace was messed up.
The Celtics goalkeeper quickly attacked, intending to take the opportunity to block Silva's shot.
Unexpectedly, David Silva, who was adjusting his pace with his head down, inadvertently kicked the football with his toe, and then picked it up with his toe. Shoot!
The football flew over the goalkeeper's head, and the goalkeeper who lowered his center of gravity and was ready to hit the ground ball couldn't even make any saves. He could only raise his head and watch the football pass him.
The others just froze in place.
The football fell from behind him... the goal!
※※※
"Oh David Silva!! Lazio took the lead at home! A beautiful goal! David Silva showed us his dexterity and technique!"
The Olympic Stadium erupted the moment the football crashed into the Celtic goal.
It's like a volcanic eruption.
The hearts of the Lazio fans can finally be put back in place...
"Lazio took a 1:0 lead in this game, and Lazio also led 1:0 in total!! The deadlock was broken!"
"The Celtics' tactics seem to be correct, but they were still broken by Lazio. It's a pity... I can only say that David Silva is indeed the most famous player in Lazio at present! And the Celtics There is such a character missing!"
Stand David Silva scores. Chang Sheng raised his arms high and looked up at the sky.
In the night sky reddened by lights, he saw the smiling face of the goddess.
So Chang Sheng also opened his mouth and smiled.
Although it is only a one-goal lead now.
But he knew that the situation had been opened.
The basis for the Celtics to stick to the penalty kick is not to lose the ball.
As long as they don't concede a goal, they can drag to a penalty.
But now that they have lost the ball, it is impossible to continue to defend like this.
They must attack. Whether it's a heavy press or a defensive counterattack, attack.
As long as they attack, there must be gaps behind them.
That's an opportunity that Lazio can take advantage of.
next. It's just an ordinary game.
Chang Sheng can sit on the coach's bench and start watching the show with his legs crossed.
※※※
What Chang Sheng thought was right.
when the game restarts. The Celtics adjusted their tactics and began to try to attack.
In fact, if you only analyze it from the surface, the Celtics still have the advantage.
They only need to score one goal to advance on away goals.
And if Lazio want to be safe, they have to score another goal.
But this is only on paper.
The real game is not such a simple math problem.
The situation of the game is firmly in the hands of Lazio, the Celtics want to score? Easier said than done?
And Lazio is best at playing games with a lead.
Now it's easy for them to score goals. And the Celtics have difficulty scoring goals.
The Celtics counterattacked, because they invested limited troops and did not have players with outstanding personal abilities like David Silva and Benzema, so they could not threaten Lazio's goal.
In order to be able to threaten Lazio's goals, they must have more players on offense. Thus. There are fewer troops on the back line.
What does it mean to lose sight of the other? This is called taking care of one thing and losing another!
Lazio made adjustments to the Celtics' adjustments and played with ease.
In the second half, the Celtics found that they could not continue to play like this, because the defense could lose the ball at any time. So they shrunk their defense again, hoping for a counterattack like luck.
They also hope that the goddess of luck will favor them.
pity……
They don't seem ready to meet the goddess.
Until the 80th minute, they were unable to break through Lazio's goal.
There are still ten minutes left. At this time, the Celtics can't care so much. They simply pressed hard, hoping to tie the score.
At this time, even after they know that they have done this. He will be beaten behind by the opponent, and he will ignore it.
Anyway, at the last moment, either you die or I die. At this time, if you still look forward and backward, you are really finished.
Faced with the impact of the Celtics, the Lazio players did not panic.
They firmly control football at their feet. Take as much time as you can, ten minutes goes by really fast with their passing back and forth and possession.
Their tactics were successful.
Until the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Celtics failed to score a goal to tie the score.
The final score was 1:0. Lazio defeated the Celtics at home, eliminated their opponents with a total score of 1:0, and advanced to the quarterfinals.
When the game ended, many Lazio fans were relieved.
They were not as calm and composed as Chang Sheng had shown.
For the last ten minutes, they have been very worried, for fear that the other party will suddenly get lucky. Scored a goal like a world wave. That would make me want to cry.
Fortunately, this time Lady Luck stood firmly behind Lazio. Even if they were besieged by the Celtics in the last ten minutes and bombed with high-altitude balls, Lazio did not concede a goal.
Of course, it would be unfair to the Lazio players if the reason for Lazio's victory is simply attributed to the favor of the goddess of luck.
At the last moment, the Celtics adopted the Scottish team's traditional long pass, which was simple and rude. Saves time and doesn't require much possession. As long as you can pass the football up. Then hand it over to the center forward in front of the goal.
At this time, the two tall central defenders, Jose Passarella and Pavon, played a very important role. They jumped up again and again, competing with Celtic players for headers. Most of the time They all grabbed some. Even if you can't grab a point, it also interferes with the Celtics player's header shot.
It relieved a lot of pressure for Handanovic.
That's why people say "Lady Luck only favors those who are prepared" and "Luck favors the strong".
If Chang Sheng didn't pay attention to training high ball defense, if his central defender is short and his header is not good enough, maybe he has already lost by now.
As for the favor of the goddess of luck... that's just a joke.

"If Mancini was watching the game live in front of the TV, he must be very upset now. His team was eliminated a day ago, losing again and again, humiliating! He must want someone to accompany him It seems that Lazio is the most likely... But after a 90-minute game, Lazio beat the Celtics by one goal, leaving the Scottish team and Mancini angry ..."
The TV commentator did not forget to tease Mancini.
Mancini was sitting in front of the TV watching the game at this time, and he naturally heard the commentator's voice.
His complexion was a little ugly.
But he is not because of Lazio's promotion to the quarter-finals. He is simply because of the commentator's taunting of him.
In fact, Lazio advanced to the quarter-finals, he is very happy. Not pretending to be happy, but being happy from the bottom of my heart.
Because the farther Lazio go in the Champions League, the more they have to be distracted.
I struggled in the league and the Champions League, vacillating. Such multiple-choice questions will be placed in front of the ever-victorious Lazio sooner or later.
What is the Champions League?
Or league?
Mancini hopes that Changsheng will choose the Champions League. In this case, he will have to give up the league. Mancini never believes that Changsheng's lineup can cope with two-line battles.
If you give up the league, you will have no opponent in the league.
The league championship is almost at your fingertips!
The league title belongs to Inter Milan. As for the Champions League, let Lazio and Milan fight to the death!
Mancini was upset when he was ridiculed by the host, but when he thought of the bright future of Inter Milan in the league, he regained his joyful mood. Even the suspension of players doesn't affect him anymore. (to be continued)
