We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 216: Cristiano Ronaldo's Big Explosion, the Sixteenth Lang Curse
The winter break is quite divisive for the giants.

On the one hand, young players can maintain their game and even improve if they choose to practice more.

For example, Marcelo was promoted from [Professional Level] to [Secondary League Level] during this winter break.

Another example is Cristiano Ronaldo. Through ball training, he regained his already low ball sense, and his ball control level has completely returned to the level before strength training, which is very sharp.

Reyes, Ramos and the players who came out of the local youth training have all improved to some extent.

On the other hand, famous older football stars such as Beckham and Carlos are running business, shooting commercials, attending various business or charity events, or even simply relaxing.

In short, it is impossible for them to practice more.

He Tianqi's medical team also advised them to have a good rest while controlling their diet.

For these old bones, additional training will not only fail to improve their abilities, but will also deplete their "battery health", which is not worth the effort.

However, they cannot get a good rest. After all, running business is really tiring. Some players think it is even more tiring than playing football.

Therefore, after the winter break, He Tianqi's panel was completely two different situations.

On the young players' side, all the arrows are green and pointing upwards, which means they are in excellent form.

On the side of the older big-name players, all of them had red or yellow downward arrows, and several of them almost had high blood pressure and high blood sugar.

Weight and body fat percentage also increased.

This means that Real Madrid will see a lot of volatility in the first few games of the second half of the season.

This is true.

January 7th, the 17th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid challenges Deportivo La Coruna away.

C Ronaldo scored early, but the team failed to take away any points in the end.

Considering the last two La Liga defeats in the first half, plus this game, Real Madrid suffered three consecutive defeats for the first time this season.

On November 11, the first round of the King's Cup quarter-finals is here.

Real Madrid challenges Real Betis away.

He Tianqi decisively chose a lineup of young players.

Players such as Reyes, Sneijder, De La Red, Pavón, Marcelo and others started the game.

Among them, He Tianqi focused on finding Paven before the game.

Paven's training and results in the team have always been very good.

All the data are far better than Bravo.

But the performance in official competitions was worse than the latter.

After a long period of getting along and encouragement, He Tianqi gradually gained Paven's trust.

He said the Copa del Rey is not an important tournament, especially at this stage.

Paven can play however he wants, as long as he respects the tactics.

He also let Pavon participate more in the command of the backcourt. His teammates mainly went up to steal the ball, while he was responsible for filling in the gaps.

The significance of this arrangement is that when the situation is relatively easy, Paven's job is actually equivalent to auxiliary, and he is fully capable of doing it with his abilities.

Of course, when the situation gets tense, this job becomes critical, and Paven's performance can take a sharp turn for the worse.

The pressure of the King's Cup is not that great, which is just right for Pavon to adapt.

As a result, Real Madrid successfully set off a youth storm.

Reyes completed the pass and shot.

Valero and Ronaldo scored goals.

Defeated Real Betis 3-1.

Pavon performed very well on the defensive end.

Lucio, his partner, expressed great pleasure.

From this game until January 28th, Real Madrid participated in two King's Cup matches and three La Liga matches.

Except for the loss in the last game against Villarreal.

The rest all won.

Advance to the King's Cup quarterfinals.

They also returned to fourth place in the La Liga standings.

In this wave of games, Paven's performance on the defensive line was particularly eye-catching.

All major media outlets have exclaimed that the Pavon in the “Zidane + Pavon” of the past is finally back!

On the front line, Real Madrid gained even more.

After returning from the winter break, Ronaldo scored in six consecutive games, showing stability never seen before in his career!
There are even many Real Madrid fans who said that Ronaldo "has the attribute of one-to-zero" and "carries the ball into the field".

Robinho and Reyes also had eye-catching breakthroughs or passes in almost every game, and the highlights were never missed.

People call them the "Real Madrid Youth Trident"!
Of course, if there is a trident, there must be a handle, which is...

Modric: WCNM!

January 31st, first leg of the King's Cup quarter-finals.

Real Madrid will challenge Atletico Madrid away.

The city derby begins.

Ronaldo had a huge outburst and his hat trick helped Real Madrid to a 4-0 victory.

It was almost announced in advance that Real Madrid had advanced to the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.

It has only been five months since he played his first official game for Real Madrid, and he has already completed hat tricks in the Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey.

Created a new record.

Became the fastest player to score a hat trick in all La Liga competitions!

C Ronaldo started to become really popular.

The reason why I say real is because his previous popularity was mostly due to He Tianqi's preference and occasional outbursts, and his dual nature as a god or a ghost was obvious.

Every time people were attracted by his excellent performance, he would drive away the on-the-sidelines fans with his poor performance.

It goes on and on, as if he has a grudge against the fans.

But after the start of the second half of the season, he was reborn.

Scoring in seven consecutive games, ten goals in seven games, his feet are hot!

He is top scorer in both the Champions League and the Copa del Rey.

The La Liga scoring list also jumped from being unlisted at the beginning to fifth place.

You have to know that this is based on the fact that he scored no goals in the first seven rounds of La Liga.

Excluding that poor performance, he averaged nearly one goal per game in La Liga this time!
It's like I was blessed by Barcelona!

He has already scored more goals in La Liga than in any previous season.

Including the Champions League and the Copa del Rey, he has doubled his total goals for Manchester United last season!
And his last season was the best season of his career so far.

It is no exaggeration to say that such a change is a leap forward.

After the city derby ended, the camera focused on Torres for a long time.

He looked very frustrated, especially when Ronaldo was interviewed by reporters as the best player of the match.

Torres is pessimistic about Atletico's current situation.

For the first time, he realized that if he continued to stay in Atletico, he might never be able to achieve truly top honors.

I will never be able to get those shining trophies behind He Tianqi.

An idea came to Torres' mind, an idea that would have never occurred to him before.

He was frightened by his own thoughts and quickly lowered his head to try to get rid of the entanglement of such thoughts.

But it didn't work.

His mind was full of the image of Ronaldo leaping high after scoring a goal.

He should have shined brighter than Ronaldo if he was in a big club!

……

Real Madrid has a total of six games in February.

But it is not much different from January. Although there are many bright spots, the stability is still a little lacking.

On February 4, in the 21st round of La Liga, Real Madrid lost to Levante at home and dropped to fifth in La Liga.

On February 10th, in the 22nd round of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad away.

But Lucio left the field due to injury and is not expected to return until March.

On February 17, in the 23rd round of La Liga, Real Madrid defeated Real Betis at home and rose to fourth place in La Liga.

Pavon started in this game, replacing Lucio.

The results were excellent.

February 20th, the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

This is also the most important game for Real Madrid this month.

Their opponent is...Inter Milan, currently number one in the Serie A standings!
There is no doubt that the arrangement for He Tianqi to return to Italy was definitely a deliberate move by UEFA.

That’s the extent of their storytelling abilities.

It is always necessary to group related teams together to gain more discussion.

And these two teams really have a lot of stories from top to bottom.

Inter Milan's starting players Mido and Grosso are both He Tianqi's old players in Palermo.

Inter Milan's Figo, Solari, Cambiasso, Samuel and other players were all former players of Real Madrid, or even iconic players.

In addition, Inter Milan has many Argentine players.

He Tianqi not only eliminated the Argentine team in the World Cup, but also beat up Argentine fans, becoming a god in one battle.

Some mainland media stated that it was fortunate that the baby Monica gave birth to for He Tianqi last November was a daughter, because it is rumored that if it was a son, his Chinese name would most likely be "He Shengting".

It is said that some netizens also said that if it is a daughter, she can actually be named "He Zhanying".

But the netizen was subsequently blocked by He Tianqi.

In short, He Tianqi's relationship with Argentina is bound to stimulate the fighting desire of Inter Milan's Argentine players.

In addition, Inter Milan's head coach Mancini was brutally defeated by the fledgling He Tianqi in his last two years coaching Lazio!

He Tianqi led Palermo to defeat the Blue Eagles in the Italian Cup in the Serie C and Serie B seasons respectively.

There are even claims that Mancini was fired by He Tianqi!
After Mancini came to Inter Milan, the team also finished below Palermo last season. After the points were deducted due to the phone gate, they still only finished second in Serie A and missed the championship.

On the Real Madrid side, Carlos and Cannavaro both played for Inter Milan.

Vieira joined Real Madrid this summer, and Inter Milan is Real Madrid's biggest competitor.

The two teams have made many deals in history, such as Ronaldo.

There have been many battles over signings.

In the period before the Galacticos, Inter Milan outshone Real Madrid.

Even though Inter Milan is now in decline, it is still one of the most watched giants.

The match was held at Real Madrid's home stadium, the Bernabeu. Inter Milan advanced as the first in the group, which gave them a more favorable schedule of away games before home games.

This game was very exciting.

Raul scored a goal.

Beckham scored directly from the free kick.

Unfortunately for Inter Milan, Mido scored twice and stabbed his godfather He Tianqi in the back.

In the final moments, Real Madrid center back Pavon made another fatal mistake, which led to Solari, who came on as a substitute, scoring the winning goal, backstabbing his former club and helping Milan beat Real Madrid 3-2 and seize the initiative.

Solari has always been considered a player whose strength outweighs his fame.

When he was at Real Madrid, he encountered Florentino's superstar policy, and no matter how well he played, he could not get a starting position.

It was eventually sold to Inter Milan two years ago.

Strangely enough, the stars sold by Real Madrid because of the superstar policy in those years all had relatively successful games that backfired on Real Madrid later on.

The most classic one is that Morientes went to Monaco to snipe Real Madrid and led the team to win the Champions League runner-up.

Back to the game.

Beckham received a yellow card during the game, and because of the cumulative yellow card, he was suspended for the next round and missed the second round.

This is bad news for Real Madrid.

Inter Milan's central defender Samuel was injured and left the field during the game and will also miss the next round.

After this game, all major media outlets were praising Inter Milan!

Gazzetta dello Sport: "Mancini finally defeated He Tianqi, and European football is about to enter the era of 'big international'!"

Turin Sports Daily: "Grosso and Maicon provided assists, but He Tianqi lost because of the Italian devil double wing concept he created himself!"

"Corriere dello Sport": "Inter Milan, who had no solution, finally overcame their inner demons! This season, they are not only invincible in Serie A, but also in the Champions League, even if their opponent is He Tianqi!"

The Times: "Real Madrid's Sixteenth Man Curse reappears, He Tianqi has finally waited for the day when he was eliminated from the Champions League!"

Sky Sports: "Silver Ho Battleship may create the worst European record for Ho Tin-chi! Four times in the European competition, three times won the championship, only this time is Shiliu Lang?"

Mundo Deportivo: "He Tianqi has no idea how to coach a top club! He seems to be as fierce as a tiger, but his record ranks him fifth!"

Not to mention the outside world, even Simeone, the assistant coach in He Tianqi's team, expressed despair about the second leg of the game.

Although Lucio will be able to return by then, Real Madrid's loss to Inter Milan is not entirely Pavon's fault.

Inter Milan played too aggressively in this game.

Their forwards are simply unstoppable.

Mido + Adriano, two 1.9-meter-tall men, are invincible physically and have good skills, and are a threat from head to toe.

The attacking midfielder is a top-notch dispatching master.

The midfield is quite strong.

The defense is solid.

Both wings fly together.

The goalkeeper is capable and the backup goalkeeper is of high standard.

What does flawless mean?
This Inter Milan looks simply invincible!
He Tianqi expressed his incomprehension of Simeone's despair.

With such low ability to withstand pressure, how can you withstand the pain of being defeated by the last-minute goal many times in the future?
You have to be strong, Diego!

……

February 25th, the 24th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid will challenge Atletico Madrid away.

Lucio came on as a substitute in this game and adapted to the game.

Atletico Madrid fought very hard in this game, especially Torres, who maintained his offensive aggressiveness from beginning to end.

He did everything he should and shouldn't do, including running, heading, and tackling.

But the results were still disappointing.

Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 4-2.

Many Atletico Madrid fans felt sorry for this game.

Torres almost decided the game at one point.

However, they believe that under the leadership of Torres in this form, Atletico will catch up with Real Madrid sooner or later.

But they don’t know that Torres in this state... is rare.

Because for Torres, this was his last try.

He really didn't want to leave Atletico, so he tried his best.

As long as they win this game and see that Atletico has a chance of defeating Real Madrid, he will choose to stay.

However...Torres and Atletico have never defeated Real Madrid!

This was a huge blow to him.

And Atletico Madrid also seems to need the funds brought by his departure to regroup.

Because the current set has reached its limit.

After the game, under the constant questioning of reporters, Torres expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's signings. He said he was lonely and needed help, but the team promised him but did not do it. He understood the team's difficulties, but the team could not sit idly by, and Atletico had to do something!
On February 28th, Torres' nightmare continued.

In the second leg of the King's Cup quarter-finals, Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid again after rotating half of its main players.

This is the third time the two sides have met in a short period of time.

This is also the fourth meeting this season.

Except for the first draw during Real Madrid's adaptation phase, the last three games were all losses.

Torres' performance was completely different from the previous game.

Fans and the media criticized Torres for playing without any fighting spirit in this game.

Torres did not argue.

Because he has made up his mind to leave.

He talked to the club yesterday. The club said it was unable to recruit new players and supported Torres to pursue his dream in a bigger team. The two sides reached a tacit understanding.

Once this news spreads, many wealthy clubs will chase Torres.

He is one of the most powerful and potential forwards at this stage.

March 4th, the 25th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid won a big victory over Getafe at home, achieving four consecutive La Liga wins for the first time and rising to third in the standings.

This is a good momentum.

Before the most intense battles in March and April, they had the strength and position to compete for the championship.

Next, they will compete fiercely with Barcelona and Valencia for the championship.

Of course, the teams behind them such as Sevilla, Villarreal, Atletico Madrid, Zaragoza, etc., also maintain their desire for the Champions League zone.

Once someone falls behind, they will attack in groups, and someone will always be able to kill him.

But Real Madrid's good momentum must be built on the basis of success in the Champions League.

If they are really eliminated by Inter Milan and become the 16th place in the Champions League for the third consecutive year, Real Madrid's confidence will collapse and the atmosphere of chasing victory within the team will be destroyed.

There is a high probability of locker room unrest at that time.

And the top management will inevitably put tremendous pressure on He Tianqi.

Everything is going to go wrong.

The league is being dragged down and will probably lose the desire to compete for the championship.

Therefore, Real Madrid, from top to bottom, attaches great importance to the first-eighth round match with Inter Milan.

They had already commissioned Barbara to help them book a hotel in Milan that was least likely to be harassed by Inter Milan fans.

He Tianqi returns to Italy for the first time after joining Real Madrid!

When the Real Madrid players got off the plane, they were used to big scenes but still they were shocked.

There were countless fans coming to the airport to welcome them.

Wearing the black and pink jersey of Palermo.

Wearing a dark blue Italy jersey.

Wearing the red and black Milan jersey.

There were even some wearing black and white Juventus jerseys.

This is confusing.

It turns out that within Juventus, a large number of fans believed that He Tianqi's exposure of the phone-gate scandal saved Juventus.

In particular, he used many Juventus players in the World Cup regardless of past grudges, which proved Juventus' strength and separated Juventus players from the top management.

Even Juventus fans are looking forward to He Tianqi failing as coach at Real Madrid and then turning around to take over Juventus and lead Juventus back to the top.

Only in this way can the negative impact of Juventus' phone-gate be completely eliminated.

After all, the victims have let bygones be bygones, so there is nothing to say about others, right?

Countless fans at the scene held up various banners.

Things like "Welcome to His Holiness the Pope", "The God of Football has returned", "The fans group of the Knights of the Apocalypse have come to pay homage to Him", "The Eternal King of Italy", etc.

These titles are too big.

The Real Madrid players were all excited watching this.

No matter how awesome they are, it's hard for them to win any of these titles.

Basically, only after a player achieves the title of football king can he be comparable to He Tianqi's influence.

The mayor of Milan also appeared on the scene and welcomed He Tianqi's return.

When everyone boarded the airport bus, they found that there was already someone sitting inside, it was... Zhu Xi Barbara from AC Milan Football Club!

Modric took the initiative to stand aside and signaled other players in the team to move back and leave the seats in the front free.

He Tianqi came up and sat next to Barbara.

The two of them had no idea what they were talking about along the way.

However, Barbara did not enter the hotel where Real Madrid was staying in the end.

He Tianqi must lead by example.

All "entertainment and celebration" activities must wait until the game is over.

And it has to be a win.

He Tianqi brought the Palermo tradition to Real Madrid, which does not allow the exchange of jerseys or dinner parties after a loss.

……

March 7, Meazza Stadium.

The blue and black wave took over the entire stadium.

"Hello everyone, this is the TV station, I am your new friend He Wei." The commentator He Wei appeared in front of the TV. He was originally an editor of the sports channel.

Responsible for copywriting, dubbing and occasional commentary.

But after Huang Jianxiang left, the person who replaced him was not able to take on the responsibility and there were many complaints from fans, so He Wei was forced to take the position.

Unexpectedly, he often spoke in poetry and witty remarks, and gradually secured his position as a commentator.

Of course, while He Wei achieved a breakthrough in his work, he was even more envious of his predecessor Huang Jianxiang.

He has made a stunning transformation from a commentator to the head of a foundation, and has even joined the senior management of Liverpool. Moreover, if it weren't for Britain's rejection of Chinese capital, he might have become the Zhu Xi of a Premier League club!
Proper life winner!
Why did he get this incredible opportunity?

Is it at the level of professional football commentary?
Huang Jianxiang: Level is not important, attitude is what matters!

He Wei: Attitude? Is it your optimism and admiration for football?

Huang Jianxiang: I am optimistic about and admire He Tianqi!
"Okay, the people who appeared in the camera are Inter Milan's Zhu Xi Moratti, Real Madrid's Zhu Xi Calderon, AC Milan's Zhu Xi Barbara, and Palermo's Zhu Xi Mr. He Yong. It is said that he is He Tianqi's cousin."

"Of course, Barbara's presence here is even more impressive because Milan has reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League."

"Currently, seven of the top eight teams in the Champions League have been confirmed, including AC Milan and Palermo from Serie A."

"Valencia from La Liga and Bayern Munich from the Bundesliga."

"Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool from the Premier League."

"The final spot will be decided between Inter Milan and Real Madrid."

"The failures of Arsenal, Barcelona, ​​Lyon and Roma are surprising, especially the first two."

"But one result is certain in advance, that is, the teams that advance to the quarterfinals all have players from Palermo!"

"The effect of Palermo's Champions League victory is spreading."

"This year, one or more players who played for Palermo will definitely win the second or even third Champions League trophy in their career!"

He Wei was well prepared and gave the fans some scientific information.

Then the camera turned to Mido.

He Wei: "Oh! This is the Egyptian prince Mido, who said something very controversial yesterday."

"Although there was deliberate guidance from reporters, his words still caused an uproar. Currently, many Palermo and Bayern fans are attacking him."

On the court, He Tianqi looked at Mido. He had also heard the interviews yesterday.

The reporter asked Mido about his views on the Ballon d'Or and the FIFA World Player of the Year rankings.

Mido spat: "This ranking is obviously not fair. Everyone can see my role in Palermo. I am the absolute core of the court."

"But it's a bit outrageous that I'm not on the shortlist. In fact, I thought I would be in the final three!"

"Tony? No, no, no, he is not as talented as me. He can play as Palermo's main center not because he is stronger than me, but because it is the arrangement of the head coach."

"In fact, my efficiency and my role in the team are no less than his."

"Does coach He Tianqi have a preference or targeting? Yes, I think it does exist. I think I should get more playing time. It doesn't necessarily mean that Tony should be my substitute. We can replace weaker players, such as some players in the midfield."

"Who? I can't say his name because it will affect our relationship. Modric and I have a good relationship and I want to continue this friendship."

"Tactically? Mr. He Tianqi's tactics are undoubtedly powerful and effective, but I think they are more suitable for ordinary players. He can turn ordinary players into excellent players."

"But it's not suitable for superstars! For example, I would be restricted by the tactical system and people wouldn't be able to see my 100% style. After coming to Inter Milan, this shackle disappeared."

"The two goals in the last round proved... what? Proved that Mr. He Tianqi was wrong? No, no, no, I would never say that. He is very good to me and has helped me a lot. He is a good coach and there is no conflict between us."

"I just said that Mido is stronger now than before! I will lead Inter Milan to win the Champions League. I have such experience!"

Overall, Mido's interview was not too out of the ordinary.

It fits his character.

He has a high opinion of himself, is self-centered, and has a simple mindset.

You can see some simple friendly views in his words.

But the overall expression is very uncomfortable.

It wasn't just the people from Palermo and Real Madrid who felt uncomfortable watching this.

People from Inter Milan felt uncomfortable watching this.

For example, Adriano, I am the king of Inter Milan, why is it your turn to lead?
And Zanetti, don’t be a captain or a leader!

Not to mention the other stars on the team.

Inter Milan's lineup is also Oscar-level, and its brilliance is no less than that of the Silver Arrows. What can you do with Inter Milan?

[Ding! Mido's interview triggered the avoidance clause, and personal skills "Basic Confrontation", "Quick Start" and "Nine and a Half" were temporarily banned]

This is all Mido's skills.

Without these things, he would not be able to do these things, but he would be unable to do them, and would have frequent urination, urgent urination, and inability to urinate completely...

[Ding! Mido's interview triggered Grosso's avoidance clause, and his personal ability was reduced by 10%]

Grosso: ???

This wave can only be said to have affected innocent people.

Mido's disrespect for He Tianqi affected Grosso's state to a certain extent.

Because Grosso still has to play for the Italian national team.

Italy national team coach Camignani has complete trust in He Tianqi's opinions.

If there were any problems in the relationship between Grosso and He Tianqi, Camignani could directly kick Grosso out of the national team without He Tianqi saying anything.

The Italian God is no joke!

……

"Okay, the game begins."

"Inter Milan's starting lineup is 4312, with Mido and Adriano as the two forwards."

"Figo is the only attacking midfielder."

"Stankovic, Cambiasso and Zanetti are the three midfielders."

"Grosso, Materazzi, Cordoba and Maicon are the four defenders."

"Cesar the goalkeeper."

"Real Madrid's starting lineup is the regular 433."

"Cristiano Ronaldo, Negredo and Robinho are the three forwards, and Raul is on the bench."

"Modric, Vieira and Emerson are the three midfielders."

"Carlos, Lucio, Cannavaro and Ramos are the four defenders."

"Goalkeeper Casillas."

"Casillas and Cesar are both outstanding small goalkeepers, known for their reaction and penalty saves."

In the fifth minute, Real Madrid, who were trailing in the aggregate score, took the first step.

Modric made a straight pass to the left.

Carlos received the ball and slowed down to challenge the rising star of the national team, Maicon.

As a result, Maicon successfully defended the ball and did not give Carlos a chance to go to the bottom.

boom!
Carlos made a diagonal pass to the bottom line of the penalty area.

Ronaldo made a forward run and caught up with the ball and shot it before it went out of bounds.

This was a shot with a near zero angle, and it was shot with Ronaldo's weak foot.

The football flew straight into the sky.

Inter Milan fans burst into laughter.

It seemed as if he was mocking the best striker in La Liga at the moment.

When you come to Italy, all you can do is fire anti-aircraft guns?

In the ninth minute, Modric was knocked down by Zanetti while competing for the ball in the midfield.

The referee called a foul on Zanetti for pushing someone from behind.

In the twelfth minute, Inter Milan won a corner kick.

After Figo kicked the ball, Lucio headed it out.

Grosso took a long shot from the outside towards the goal as the ball fell from the sky.

when!
The football hit the crossbar and bounced off!

Grosso sighed.

Inter Milan is more optimistic.

If there are more threats like this, why worry about Real Madrid’s goal not being broken?
The camera was immediately turned to He Tianqi. Grosso's shooting skills, positioning, and shooting awareness were all taught by He Tianqi.

As a result, the flying wing's world wave now hit He Tianqi himself.

He Tianqi did not respond to this.

But if it weren't for Mido's arrogant declaration and Grosso's ability had not decreased by 10%, this goal might have been scored.

In the 17th minute, Inter Milan attacked with the ball in the frontcourt, their two wings pressed forward and took advantage of the situation.

Mido took the initiative to withdraw to ask for the ball, and then dribbled sideways.

Lucio followed him out of the penalty area, applied pressure with his body, and stole the ball with his feet, steadily, accurately and ruthlessly!
boom!
Lucio made a long pass and Real Madrid counterattacked directly from the backcourt!

Ronaldo started immediately.

Maicon chased back frantically.

Ronaldo's stop was not very good, but it did not waste too much time, so Maicon made up some distance.

It seems that he can interfere with Ronaldo.

Ronaldo suddenly moved to the right, creating distance between himself and Maicon.

Fire with right foot from three steps outside the penalty area!
Hit the left side of the goal!
Diagonal shot!
The ball flew out from the other side, and Materazzi, who stretched out his legs to try to block it, saw the edge of his studs.

If Ronaldo had not shot from the left side, the ball would have been blocked by Materazzi.

Similarly, if Ronaldo did not pull to the right, this shot to the left would be blocked by Maicon's outstretched leg.

In top-level confrontations, many opportunities only exist in a moment of thought.

Swish!
The football stirred up countless white waves.

Cesar flew to save the ball, but the angle of the ball was too tricky and it went into the goal and hit the side net directly.

"GOAL!!!"

"The goal was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo!"
