Chapter 571 Penalty Kick and Red Card

In the 58th minute, Ricardo took a free kick and accurately found the top of Thiago Silva's head, but the latter's header was too angled, and the football rubbed against the post and flew out of the baseline.

Thiago Silva sighed while holding his head. He missed his chance to be a hero.

After 2 minutes, Spain found a loophole in Brazil's defense in possession of the ball. Xavi sent a ecstasy through ball, but Thiago Silva was very careful. When Villa ran from Lucio's side When he received the ball, Thiago Silva was in place and he tackled the ball very boldly in the penalty area and broke the ball out of the baseline.

Spain took a corner kick, and Fabiano headed the ball back to the defense, and Brazil counterattacked. After two feet passed, the ball came to Kaka's feet.

Kaka sprinted for 30 meters with the ball, and after passing two people in a row, he sent a through kick.

Ricardo crossed from the left side and used his speed to overtake Puyol to receive the ball. But at the moment of receiving the ball, Puyol kicked him covertly on the supporting leg.

Puyol left and raised his hand to indicate that he had not fouled, while Ricardo staggered and ran a few steps. Although he still barely controlled the ball, Capdevila and Busquets were back in place, and he lost shot chance.

After Licado regained his balance, the first thing he did was to pass the ball to the back point.

Both Capdevila and Busquets paid too much attention to Ricardo, and both focused on Ricardo, leaving space behind.

Rico plugged in at high speed and got a single chance.

But maybe because he was too nervous, he hesitated for nearly a second, and he didn't wake up like a dream until Casillas attacked. He kicked and shot, and the football hit Casillas' leg and popped out of the baseline.

After completing the shot, Rico knelt on the ground, unable to believe that he missed such a godsend opportunity.

Gilberto Silva takes a corner kick, Fabiano grabs the header and then rubs. In the middle, Lucio and Ricardo take off at the same time. In the end, Ricardo hits the ball and completes the header relay, but His strike went over the bar.

Spain tried again to organize the attack and Xabi Alonso was caught early by experienced veteran Gilberto Silva when he tried to plug the ball into the penalty area and successfully intercepted the ball.

Gilberto Silva immediately launched a counterattack with a long pass. Kaka once again demonstrated his high-speed dribbling skills, shaking Busquets away through continuous changes of direction, and handing the ball to the right.

Rico stepped in to catch the ball at high speed, and a 3-on-3 situation was formed. Capdevila brought him down and received a yellow card.

So far, the Spanish team's defense line 4 plus Busquez are all yellow.

Bosque faced an awkward situation.

If he still wants to maintain his deterrence against Riccardo and Kaka, he must replace a defender.

Otherwise, there must be the determination of a certain player to be red.

It was a tough decision and the defenders on the Spanish bench were not so reassuring.

Especially the three of Pique, Puyol and Ramos,

Almost irreplaceable.

The gap between the substitute players and them is very large.

When Bosque was hesitating, Spain played a very good attack. After deflecting Brazil's defense with an inverted foot, Xavi moved the ball to the right. Navas broke into the penalty area with the ball and faced Ti Jago Silva, he passes the ball to the post and Villa just catches the ball and he can open the goal.

But Lucio made a contribution. He tackled the ball fiercely. Although he didn't get it, he was in front of Villa.

Villa hastily shot the ball, the football bounced off Lucio, and Maicon made a big clearance.

Villa raised his hand to signal Lucio's handball, referee Webber ignored it, but at this time Kaka had already headed the ball back to Ricardo, Brazil launched a quick counterattack.

Riccardo's stamina had dropped drastically at this time, and his speed was not as fast as it was at the beginning of the game, but logically, the opponent's stamina was also consumed a lot.

A flick of the bull's tail passed Ramos, and Ricardo continued to run to the baseline with the ball.

Ramos was chasing after him, but Ricardo suddenly smashed the ball, then dunked the ball back with his right foot, changed direction twice in a row, Ramos almost fell, and then broke into the penalty area.

At this time, Spain's defensive formation has not yet been set up. Fabiano is almost unattended in the middle, and Rico outflanks in place at the second point.

Ricardo has three shots, and he can also choose to shoot himself.

Casillas attacked immediately, but he was embarrassed, Ricardo had too many choices, and he had no good way.

Ricardo began to pedal the bicycle.

After two cyclists, Casillas fell to the ground in desperation to make a save, but he failed to hold the ball, and Ricardo turned the ball in the opposite direction, seemingly about to shoot. There is no reason not to enter this empty door.

Ramos had no choice. He tackles from behind.

Ricardo fell to the ground. The football flew out. The referee's whistle sounded, and Weber ran over, pointed to the penalty spot, then put his right hand into his trouser pocket, and called Ramos with his left hand.

Ramos was surprisingly calm. When making a choice, he already knew the consequences.

Sure enough, Weber took out the stack of red and yellow cards, first selected a yellow card and shook it at him.

Ramos turned and started walking off the court.

Facing his back, Weber completed the final ceremony, selected the red card and waved it at him.

"Penalty and red card! Ramos was sent off after two yellows and one red, and the Brazilian team still has a penalty to kick. The situation is very friendly to the Brazilian team!" The commentator said, "This may be the end of the whole game. Turning point. But Ramos’ foul is understandable. If he didn’t foul, Ricardo would have scored an empty goal. It would be a sure goal. And Ramos’ foul, although Brazil was given a penalty kick, but The penalty may not be scored. Now the pressure is on Casillas."

The players of the Brazilian team gathered around, touched Ricardo's head, patted his shoulder, and expressed their joy.

This bitter battle can finally see the dawn of victory.

Ricardo stretched his ankle, stood up, and wanted to play football, he was going to take the penalty himself.

He carefully placed the ball on the penalty spot, placed it several times, and finally aimed the valve core at himself.

Then he took a deep breath and started backing away. At this time, the Spanish players were still protesting around the referee Weber. They thought the penalty was too heavy, and Ramos should not be sent off after a penalty kick was given.

And Casillas has been trying to tell Webber that Ramos kicked the ball first and then tripped Ricardo.

But Weber ignored them and ran backwards out of the penalty area, signaling the Spanish players to disperse, warning that if they did not disperse, they would be given a card.

The Spanish players backed away sullenly.

Licado supported it with his left leg, and twisted his ankle with the tip of his right toe on the ground. There was a tingle in his ankle.

But should be able to last the game. What happened at the last World Cup will not happen again. Even if he broke his leg, he still insisted on finishing the game.

Weber blew his whistle, and Ricardo started to run.
