Ground football: Ronaldo thought I was going to assist him

Portugal, the birthplace of the Portuguese Super League, ranked fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth in the FIFA rankings, naturally has a good football atmosphere.

Even during regular U15 league matches, thousands of fans attend the games.

Among them, a group of people from the underworld stood out.

They were all gang members.

Holding up a banner cheering for Qatar Sports.

Wearing the number 16 jersey from Qatar Sports Youth Training.

That's Andoa's jersey.

This is Andoya's brother and his friends, who kept saying things like "Cadasport will win, Sporting Lisbon is trash" to others around them.

Strictly speaking, these people are not football fans, but football hooligans.

No club would welcome someone like that.

Soon, the young players from both sides entered the field.

"I can't believe I'll run into you here. This time I'm going to kick you so badly your own mothers won't recognize you!" Andoa was furious as he looked at Deng Kai and Ronaldo. "Speaking of which, I should thank you."

"If it weren't for you guys, I wouldn't have been kicked out of the team, and I wouldn't have jumped to Qatar Sports U15 and become a key player."

Deng Kai pursed his lips: "Congratulations then, but there are differences between U15 teams. Qatar Sports' U15 team... sorry, if your opponent in this match wasn't Sporting Lisbon, how many people do you think would have come to watch?"

"Two hundred or three hundred people?"

"I heard that Qatar Sports U17's best player transferred to Benfica this year, but look, he's coming back anyway, isn't he?"

"Qada Sports has no future. When I searched it on Baidu, the most frequent results were related to Qatar, can you believe it? It made me think you were playing for a rich Middle Eastern team!"

"By the way, speaking of rich people, your youth training subsidies haven't decreased since you were at Sporting Lisbon, have they?"

Sporting Lisbon, Benfica, and Porto offer the highest subsidies for their youth academies in Portugal.

Cristiano Ronaldo watched as Deng Kai unleashed a barrage of attacks on Andoya from the front row, and his smile grew even wider.

Deng Kai might lose a football match, but he'll definitely win at trash talk.

He's a master of empty talk!

"Hmph!" Andoya was so angry she couldn't speak.

……

With the sound of a whistle, the competition officially began.

Qatar Sports kicked off first.

At the moment of kickoff, Deng Kai glanced at Ronaldo, giving a clear signal.

Cristiano Ronaldo immediately understood.

After Qatar Sports' players kicked off, the ball was passed around twice before finally reaching Andoa's feet.

But at the same time, Deng Kai and Cristiano Ronaldo rushed towards Andoa.

Pressing from the kickoff!

This inexplicable rhythm prompted many fans who were still holding popcorn and looking for better seats in the front row to quickly sit down.

Many teams need ten minutes or more to create such a heated atmosphere.

Andoya's pupils contracted.

But instead of panicking, they saw a good passing route.

Andoa's ability and talent are actually quite good, as he was able to quickly establish himself in another team after being dismissed.

As a midfielder, Deng Kai's pressing forward inevitably means that Sporting Lisbon's central defense has weaknesses.

Andoya played a through ball, attempting to exploit the space behind Deng Kai.

Qatari striker also saw this and cut inside to the center without the ball.

Once Andoa's through ball arrives, he can easily tap it in and challenge Lisbon's center-back.

This is definitely a great opportunity.

he……

The striker's run came to an abrupt halt.

The football... has been intercepted!

"How could that be!" Andoa's smile froze.

How could that ball possibly be intercepted?

Deng Kai intercepted them again!

Andoya specifically passed the ball outside of Deng Kai's interference range, exploiting Deng Kai's short stature and short legs.

A player who is around 1.7 meters tall might have been able to intercept that ball.

But Deng Kai... on what grounds?

"A beautiful sliding tackle! Sporting Lisbon's number 24 made a successful risky defensive play!"

"His pressing created a gap in the team's midfield, and Andoya of Qatar Sporta spotted the weakness and delivered a through ball."

"But Andoa never expected that Deng Kai, who wasn't long enough, would tackle him directly."

"Deng Kai got up, his tackle was very skillful, and he kept the ball firmly under his feet. Now he is in a good position, at the junction of the attacking third and the attacking second zone."

"But he faces the entire defensive line of Andoa and Qatar Sports, and he is about to be besieged."

"Chris was trying to receive the pass, but his passing lanes were blocked."

"This is almost a two-on-seven situation in the attacking third, and Deng Kai is bound to concede the ball."

"The rest of Sporting Lisbon's players also started to drop back defensively to avoid being caught on the counter-attack by Qatari clubs after conceding a goal. This means that Duncan, Chris, and the team have become disconnected."

On the field, Sporting Lisbon were prepared to lose possession.

That's very rational; the tactical awareness is quite good.

Even Cristiano Ronaldo would have conceded a goal if he had been in a precarious situation like Duncan's.

There is no other possibility.

However, Deng Kai continued dribbling the ball and charged directly towards Andoa.

Andoa's position is defensive midfield.

His long pass accuracy is considered excellent within Qatar Sports.

Qatar Sports devised a specific tactic for this.

When the team's midfield is under pressure, Andoya receives a pass from his teammate in the defensive midfield position, then makes a long pass to his striker teammate to complete the transition between attack and defense.

This has led Andoa to recently be dubbed "the Guardiola of Qatar Sports".

He even believes that with some effort, he could replace the current number 10 player and become the team's new midfield core.

But for Sporting Lisbon, the defensive midfield position in Qatar means... the midfield and attacking area!

"Andoa stepped forward to intercept Deng Kai! He was very confident, and he was much taller than Deng Kai."

"Cada Sports players are chasing and tracking back behind Deng Kai, and the opponent is already close to him."

"The Qatari center-backs also moved up, forming a pincer movement with Andoya. Moreover, they had another center-back behind them, completely surrounding Deng Kai."

"Deng Kai still hasn't shown any signs of slowing down his dribbling. As everyone knows, most dribbling moves require slowing down. Does Deng Kai intend to just walk right past Andoa like that?"

"If it were Chris instead, there might be hope, but Deng Kai's speed is just too..."

boom!

Shocking!

Deng Kai, who was dribbling quickly, suddenly took a shot.

A powerful shot!

It exceeded everyone's expectations.

A dribbling skill?

Do not!

No need!

Deng Kai's dribbling was never intended to get past Andoa, nor does he currently have the ability to do so.

He was only doing this to fulfill the trigger conditions for "Black Panther Hunt".

Within three seconds of possession change, in the attacking third... Mission accomplished!

The football flew past Andoa's face.

The sudden shot left him no time to react.

After all, this was more than 35 meters away from the goal.

Even top strikers in the top five leagues rarely shoot from this position.

Because the probability of scoring is just too low.

On the one hand, such long-range shots give the goalkeeper too much time to react.

On the other hand, long-distance flight can cause the football to lose control, commonly known as being unable to hold it back.

Only players with exceptional footwork and shooting skills can score such long-range world-class goals.

However, gasps of surprise came from the stands.

Andoya quickly turned around.

Oh shit!

The goalkeeper is running towards the goal from the penalty spot!

Most goalkeepers stand outside the penalty area during the kickoff phase because there are very few situations at this stage that threaten the goal.

But now, that low-probability event has occurred.

Some idiot took a shot from more than 35 meters away from the goal.

This is an U15 match. How does this distance differ from a midfield lob shot when converted to the standards of the top five European leagues?

Do you even know how to play football?

when!

The football flew over the leaping Qatari goalkeeper, but unfortunately struck the crossbar and then fell straight down... without bouncing off the goal line.

The Qatari goalkeeper quickly got up from the ground and lunged at the ball again; he still had a chance to stop it!

After the football lands on the ground, it continues to bounce toward the goal thanks to the spin.

The Qatari goalkeeper's fingers were incredibly close to the ball, just a hair's breadth away, just a hair's breadth away...

boom!

The Qatari goalkeeper made the save and landed on the ground.

But when the camera was pointed at him, his face turned ashen.

Because he was always just a little bit short!

The football eventually bounced into the goal and slowly rolled towards the net.

The next moment, Sporting Lisbon's number 24 player pointed both fingers to the sky!

Using your current position as the center, scan the entire stadium!

At the same time, he let out an excited roar!

"Veni!"

The teammates who were about to come and celebrate were stunned, and everyone stopped in their tracks.

This is... Latin?

Both Portuguese and Spanish are derived from Latin, so they are mutually intelligible.

Besides... this is such a famous quote!

How dare he?

"Vidi!" Deng Kai said the second word.

He really dares to do it!

You were the ones who mocked me for being Caesar first!

In that case, prepare to welcome a real Caesar!

The small stadium fell silent instantly.

Only the voice of the Great Emperor resounded throughout the heavens!

"Vici!"
