Chapter 227
Perhaps the fans themselves did not know whether the boos they kept making were to put pressure on Bale, or whether they were struggling to survive as they watched their team's defense being torn apart.
Just as Li Shiguang said in the locker room during the halftime break, Zambrotta was indeed experienced, good at both offense and defense, and was also a good winger when he was young, but the 30-year-old was facing the 18-year-old Bale after all.
In positional warfare, he could defend Bale without any temper, but what about this kind of mobile warfare without any physical contact? Bale could easily blow him up with just speed!
In just one or two seconds, Bale had surpassed Zambrotta and was striding towards the football that had already landed on the grass and was constantly jumping and rolling forward, while Zambrotta could only wave his right hand weakly behind him, which had not even touched Bale's jersey, and chased back with all his might!
Marcos and Zambrotta were quickly approaching Bale. Rivaldo did not stand still after passing the ball. He chose to go from the middle to the top of the arc of Barcelona's penalty area. Behind him was Motta who was chasing back after being passed. Leeds United's center forward Torres had already come to the right side of the penalty area. Next to him was Puyol, and Sneijder at a distance also ran into Barcelona's penalty area accompanied by Belletti.
Because of Rivaldo's breakthrough and wonderful pass, Barcelona's midfield and backcourt suddenly formed a four-on-four situation.
Bale did not slow down after successfully getting the ball. He just tilted his head to observe the middle slightly, kicked the ball forward for a distance, and then took it to the bottom line.
When Bale caught up with the ball again, Torres had already flanked in place. At this time, he was raising his arms high and shouting loudly: "Gareth, here!"
In addition to him, Sneijder at a distance had also rushed into the small penalty area, also holding his hands up to ask for the ball.
But except for Bale who had the ball and Bale who had been paying attention after being broken through, no one on the field paid attention to it. Rivaldo also rushed to the penalty spot, but he was very cunning and did not raise his hand to ask for the ball.
Later, Bale, who had brought the ball to the bottom line, finally passed the ball, but because he did not use his dominant foot, Bale did not pass the ball high in the air, but swept the ball to the middle, and the football also flew towards Torres along the grass.
"Bale passed the ball, and the target of the pass seemed to be Torres, but Torres ran a little too far!" Seeing Bale's pass, Lineker's voice was a little anxious.
Jon also stared at the TV screen closely, but his attention was not only on Torres: "This ball was obviously not passed well. Even if Torres stopped the ball, he had to make adjustments before he had a chance to shoot, unless..."
The next second, Lineker's shout interrupted Jon's half-sentence: "Oh!!! Beautiful!!! Does Torres have eyes behind him?"
Because in the picture, the ball had rolled over from Torres' crotch!
Torres was going to catch the ball, but Puyol was already behind him, and his brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to get rid of this man's defense and then kick the ball.
But at the moment when Bale kicked, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Fernando! Come over here!"
Torres knew that it was Rivaldo behind him without having to guess, his voice was too recognizable.
So Torres stepped his left leg to the side, and took the initiative to lean on Puyol, who also heard Rivaldo's shout, and then moved his right leg slightly to the other side, and the football rolled straight from his crotch to the penalty spot, where Rivaldo had already taken a posture, drawing his bow and arrow to shoot!
Seeing the football rolling to his feet, the Brazilian veteran who wanted to prove himself again on this field suddenly felt his blood rushing up. He looked at the upper left corner of Barcelona's goal, turned his body sideways, swung his left foot, and kicked the football on the ground!
"Rivaldo!!!" Lineker's tone changed from anxious to excited!
At the same time, the boos in the Camp Nou stadium were several times louder than before. The fans seemed to want to crush Rivaldo in this way, so that he could not hit the right spot smoothly.
But these were no longer important to Rivaldo.
Valdez's figure became more and more blurred in his eyes.
Until the end, all he could see was the goal in front of him, which was only 12 yards away!
The goal that he had made all the efforts to prevent other teams from breaking through, but he did not get the recognition he deserved!
"Bang!"
For the players who were still standing in the penalty area at this time, the sound of the human body hitting the football had drowned out the surrounding fans.booing!
The golden left foot from Brazil hit the ball hard, and also hit the Barcelona players, the more than 90,000 home fans of Camp Nou, and Rijkaard's heart!
If the camera zooms in, you can even judge from the deformed sphere how much strength Rivaldo used in this shot.
Valdés made the first judgment, because Rivaldo was looking at the upper left corner of the goal from beginning to end, so he pushed hard on the ground, stretched his whole body to the limit, and rushed to his right!
But he did not touch the football. The only thing he could feel was the gust of wind when the football flew past his right hand fingers at high speed!
"gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool..."
Lineker was speechless! He could not find any words to describe his excitement now. The table in front of him was smashed with his passionate roar!
"The ball went in!! An absolute dead corner!! Valdes had no way out!!" Jon, who had been keeping calm, finally couldn't suppress his excitement after seeing the ball hit the goal of Barcelona. After all, Leeds United is an English team. When they are in the Champions League, they should support them. "1:2!! Leeds United scored two away goals!! And from Rivaldo's face, I also saw something other than celebrating the goal itself. Maybe what Gary said just now is true! This game has other meanings for this Brazilian veteran!"
When Bale passed the ball, Li Shiguang and Simeone, who were still sitting on the bench, were already ready to move. When Rivaldo kicked the ball into the goal of Barcelona, the two of them rushed to the sidelines with the substitutes and cheered, venting their emotions.
After all, there were only a dozen minutes left in the game. For Leeds United, who had already scored two away goals, the final result was no longer important...
