Chapter 215 Change History, Do What You Say!

The protest of the Manchester United players was invalid. This penalty is indisputable and belongs to Lazio.

Not only did Evra give the opponent an excellent penalty kick because of his foul, he also received a yellow card.

Now everyone only cares about who will take the penalty kick on Lazio's side.

For some reason, Lazio got very few penalties in Serie A, so everyone doesn't know who Lazio's first penalty shooter is.

But in fact there are, this season's first penalty shooter is Falcao.

Because I want to score goals for Falcao...

Falcao has scored eleven goals in the Champions League this season.

If he makes this penalty kick, he will tie the record for the player with the most goals scored in a single session after the Champions League restructuring.

Before him, Ruud van Nistelrooy of Manchester United. He represented Manchester United in the 2002-2003 season and scored twelve goals in the Champions League.

But that's because the UEFA Champions League at that time had two round-robin group matches, with more games than now, and the difficulty of the group matches was lower than that of the knockout matches.

The 2002-2003 season was the last one before the Champions League canceled the double round-robin group stage. Since then, no one can score twelve goals in a season until the appearance of Messi.

But now, Lazio's Falcao is about to become just such a person!

The commentators were a little excited, and they told the TV audience how difficult it is to score twelve goals in the Champions League in one season.

"Falcao has 11 goals now, and scoring another goal will equal the single-season scoring record in the Champions League set by Ruud van Nistelrooy in the 2002-2003 season!"

Everyone is looking forward to the historic moment.

Lazio's teammates also knew it, so no one went to fight him.

But Falcao, holding the football, was thinking about a problem.

He put the football on the penalty spot, then turned and stepped back, but instead of preparing to run, he directly exited the penalty area.

Everyone was dumbfounded—the run-up distance is a little... a little longer, right?

Slightly longer? Of course slightly longer.

Because Falcao went straight to the middle circle!

What's happening here?

Falcao walked up to captain Jose Passarella, who was guarding the counter-attack in the center circle.

"You take the penalty, Jose," Falcao said to Passarella.

Passarella was a little surprised: "Huh?"

"I think you are more suitable to take this penalty than me," Falcao said.

"But you are the first penalty shooter in the team..." Passarella felt that this was against the rules.

Falcao suddenly changed his face, and said with a smile: "Okay, let me tell the truth, Jose. The pressure of this penalty kick is too great, I dare not take it. If I miss it, I will be a sinner through the ages! They I will say that it doesn’t matter if I don’t get the penalty because I’m going to Barcelona. But I believe in you, Jose. If it’s you, it’s fine! You’re much more resistant to pressure than I am!”

Jose Passarella wanted to say something, but Falcao interrupted him and pushed him up: "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Everyone is waiting! Hurry up, don't waste time, Maybe the referee directly cancels our penalty chance?"

Jose Passarella stopped talking and ran towards the penalty spot.

Everyone looked at him, and he could feel those gazes, with doubts and surprises. There are malicious curses.

He even knew what these people were cursing.

He missed the most crucial penalty in last year's Champions League quarter-final penalty shoot-out.

Those people hope he misses the penalty now too.

Although the journey wasn't long, it wasn't short either. Passarella didn't run wild all the way, as if he was afraid of being watched by others.

He keeps his pace. Go forward at a constant speed.

Embrace those gazes.

"What's going on here?" The narrator was also surprised and puzzled. "Isn't Falcao taking a penalty kick? This is his best chance to tie Ruud van Nistelrooy's record! How did he give up this opportunity?"

"Jose Passarella came to take this penalty? What did Falcao think? Didn't he know that Jose Passarella had missed a key penalty?"

"This is evasion of responsibility! Yes, the penalty kick at this time is very important and critical, and the pressure is huge. But if a player cannot withstand such pressure, he will never become a superstar! I think the representative of Barcelona saw this scene Maybe regret that they paid so much for such a coward!" It wasn't the Spanish commentator who said that. It's not Catalan either, it's Italian.

He seemed more anxious than the Barcelona people.

Because he wants Lazio to win. No matter what Chang Sheng said, Lazio is indeed an Italian team. If Lazio wins, Italian football can indeed benefit more.

But Falcao gave such a crucial penalty like a child's play to a person who had missed a penalty at a critical moment, that is to evade responsibility! It is to ruin Lazio's victory!

Lazio lost the game, and the benefits of Italian football were gone.

That's why he was so angry.

※ ※ ※

Lazio's coaching bench was also puzzled.

Why did Falcao suddenly award the penalty to Jose Passarella?

"What the hell... what is Falcao doing?!" Someone in the coaching staff complained, and then came to Chang Sheng: "Chang, you should stop this kind of childish behavior!"

But to their surprise, Chang Sheng did not stop, but expressed support.

"I believe that Falcao did this after careful consideration and he has his reasons. But the most important thing is... I believe in José."

Chang Sheng said so.

"So there's no need to substitute. Just let Jose play."

"But what if... I mean what if, what if he misses the ball again? The quality of the turf today is worse than the Allianz Arena a year ago!"

Chang Sheng shrugged: "It's a big deal to play overtime."

"But we risk losing the title..."

Chang Sheng curled his lips: "I like champions more than anyone else, but sometimes, I think that compared to letting an excellent player get out of the psychological shadow, the championship is nothing more... And if he can get out of the psychological shadow Come out of the middle, we also won the championship, killing two birds with one stone. How wonderful."

The other party seemed to want to say more, but Chang Sheng interrupted him with a wave. "Okay, now let's watch the game."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the field.

※ ※ ※

Jose Passarella has entered the box.

He walked through a group of stunned players from both sides, his expression normal.

He walked to the penalty spot and picked up the football again. After turning the football around a few times, he found the Adidas logo and turned the side of the logo to face himself. Put it back on the penalty spot.

Then he straightened up and stepped back, this time for a real run-up. He retreated to the penalty area line and stopped, turned to look at the referee, and waited until the whistle sounded.

※ ※ ※

Manchester United here. When they found out that it was not Falcao but Jose Passarella who took the penalty, they were all relieved.

Falcao is in a hot state today. If he is allowed to take the penalty, the result is really hard to say.

But it was replaced by Jose Passarella, and everyone relaxed instead.

Everyone knows that it was Jose Passarella in the quarter-finals of last season's Champions League. A most important penalty was missed, causing Lazio to lose to Bayern Munich.

Since then, he hasn't taken a penalty for either club or country.

It is widely believed that he has fallen into a penalty phobia. Inextricable. So just skip the penalty kick.

The last time he slipped because of his feet, this time the field is worse than last time, so the chance of his feet slipping is also higher...

If it were Jose Passarella, we at Manchester United would have a very high chance of escaping death!

Even Evra, who made a mistake, kept his eyes on Jose Passarella. It seems that he hopes to use his own eyes to interfere with the opponent, so that he will eventually miss the penalty kick.

※ ※ ※

The reporters in the media seats also talked about this sudden situation.

Falcao had the penalty all set. But suddenly changed his mind and let Jose Passarella take the penalty. What on earth is he thinking?

Most reporters believed that Falcao was crushed by the pressure and he was afraid to face the penalty.

The pressure of this penalty kick is really great.

Counting injury time, there may be about ten minutes before the end of the game.

At this time, Lazio won a penalty. It stands to reason that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

But if everyone thinks so, then it is a huge pressure on the free throw player himself. Because of the penalty kick, it is normal to score, but it should not be scored.

Therefore, the free thrower has already entered the psychological suggestion of "this ball can only be scored, but must be scored" before kicking the penalty kick.

Everything that can only succeed and not fail will become a huge pressure.

What's more, this matter directly determines the result of the game, determines the goal that the whole team has worked hard for for a season, and is related to the first time that all Lazio players have dreamed of!

Although they understand the pressure, they are still disappointed that Falcao gave up the right to the penalty so easily, especially when he chose Jose Passarella, the manager who has missed penalties before!

It is even more incomprehensible.

What is going on in his head?

You can give it to Benzema, what are you going to do for him? Don't you know that he kicked a penalty kick last season, which caused you to be eliminated? !

The Italian journalists who supported Lazio's championship were all sighing.

Breno Pacheco smiled happily.

He felt that God really did not abandon him.

At such an important time, Falcao did not dare to punish because of too much pressure, and made a wrong choice...

Lazio, Lazio, all of you are confused, you have surrendered...do you still want to win?

wishful thinking!

※ ※ ※

Manchester United fans don't know why Falcao gave the penalty to Jose Passarella.

But many of them know that it was Jose Passarella's missed penalty last season that cost Lazio to Bayern Munich's elimination.

Speaking of which, the story of Jose Passarella really... spread all over the world, and everyone in the world knows about it...

These Manchester United fans finally thought of what they can do to help the team win and stop Lazio.

Coincidentally, the stands behind Manchester United's goal in the second half were the territory of Manchester United fans.

The sea of ​​red surged at this time, and there were huge boos over the Luzhniki Stadium.

Like a thunderstorm over the ocean. The deafening roar. It's heart-wrenching.

And Lazio fans can do nothing about all this. All they could do was not interfere with Jose Passarella at the penalty.

As a result, their silence gave the Manchester United fans an opportunity to make noise. And they can't overwhelm each other with louder voices, which will only upset Jose Passarella.

Although they are not optimistic about Jose Passarella's penalty kick, everyone is standing in front of the penalty kick. What else can they do besides support?

※ ※ ※

Amidst the huge boos, the wind and rain seemed to be blowing.

The corner flag, which had been wet by the rain before, hung down weakly and stuck tightly to the flagpole, but now it was blown up again by the wind, making a sound of hunting!

From a distance. The rain lines in the sky were also distorted by the wind, slanting towards Jose Passarella's face from the sky.

against the wind!

This is a headwind penalty!

Many Lazio supporters frowned.

The situation is as bad as it gets!

Damn, it's just a penalty kick, what about it?

※ ※ ※

Chang Sheng looked up at the sky, and the rain was rushing towards him. The bean-sized raindrops hit his face still a little painful, and he even had to squint his eyes, otherwise the rain would directly hit his eyes.

Is this your last struggle?

Chang Sheng smiled instead of worrying.

You can only do this, do you have other tricks?

Oh, gone?

Then it's my turn.

Take a good look at it in the sky, how am I against the sky!

It's numerous fun to fight the destiny!

※ ※ ※

The whistle that seemed to have been waiting for a century finally sounded.

All eyes were fixed on Jose Passarella.

His expression was as usual. Then start running.

The Lazio fans held their breath and the Manchester United fans booed to a higher level, flailing their arms so hard that the stands behind the goal looked like a sprawling abstract painting.

The wind suddenly increased with their whistling!

The jersey that was originally attached to Van der Sar's body was even bulged up by the wind!

The wind and rain are more urgent. He roared and rushed towards Jose Passarella who was running up, as if he wanted to push him back...

Jose Passarella braved the wind and rain, ran to the football, and stepped hard on the ground with his left foot. Long steel nails stuck into the muddy pond in front of the goal, like a tree with roots.

Then he swung his right leg.

All eyes were on his body. Want to see if there is any sign of tilting to the left.

But they didn't see it when Jose Passarella hit the upper middle of the football hard with the outside of the toe of his right foot.

The football is a little higher than the turf, skimming low over the muddy turf!

For this kind of football that flies close to the ground, no amount of wind and rain will help!

Van der Sar judged the right direction, he quickly fell to the ground, and his hand touched the football!

At this moment, everyone's hearts were in their throats.

Lotito, the president of the Lazio club, pressed his hand tightly to his heart and gritted his teeth.

Van der Sar's hand touched the football, and he wanted to force the football out.

But when he tried hard, his fingers slipped on the smooth football surface! He only picked up a splash of water!

Football, from under his hand, rushed into the goal!

※ ※ ※

The boos of the Manchester United fans were instantly drowned out by the burst of cheers from the Lazio fans. The cheers swept the entire Luzhniki Stadium in a second and became the only sound here!

"The goal is scored!!! Jose Passarella has completed self-salvation!! A powerful and decisive penalty kick! Lazio achieved a 2:1 reversal!!"

The narrator screamed wildly.

On the sidelines, Chang Sheng's protruding body suddenly leaned back, and he swung his arms vigorously. He swung all the rainwater on his body into the air, turning it into rain and fog.

This time, he faced the oncoming wind and rain with his back, without squinting or avoiding, and let the rain hit his face and open mouth.

come! destiny! come!

I said I was going to change history, and I fucking did it! !
