Chapter 24 Thunder Strike
All players have extremely beautiful expectations for their debut, and Liu Feng is no exception.
Although there were very few fans present today, Liu Feng was still very excited compared to the game where there were no spectators at all when he was in the Santos Youth Team, but this excitement did not make him lose his mind.
After coming to Cassia, Liu Feng took on the task of wingman just like the forward player before.
Vicenza's coach believes that this is just a counter-substitution for Frankini, while Vicenza's players on the court feel that the pressure brought to them by the player they replaced is not as high as the previous player.
"Hey, when did our reserve team accept an Asian player?"
Off the court, among the fans who came to Piacenza, several fans with good relationships were very surprised by Liu Feng's completely unfamiliar Asian faces.
"I don't know, this kid doesn't seem to have any presence."
"It's true, maybe it's just a regular substitute for the match."
"Hey hey hey, haven't you noticed he's very handsome?" A female fan shouted in dissatisfaction as she listened to the unfriendly conversation between the two male fans.
“…”
"Please, Karina, this is football, not a star performance." The female fan's partner was silent for a while and had no choice but to complain.
"I don't care, I like this player!"
"Just be happy..."
The fans' discussions about Liu Feng continue, but the situation on the court has changed.
After Liu Feng came on the court, after reducing his risk assessment through several contacts, Vicenza's defense once again tilted the center of gravity on Cassia.
For some reason, since the No. 22 player came on the court, Cassia has been very excited. The midfielder who couldn't bear to see him had no choice but to ask his teammate for help.
"You go and help Julian! I'll keep a guard against this No. 22 who just came on the court."
Nicholas Giani, who is also the main central defender of the Vicenza reserve team, directed his teammates to assist in defending Julian, who defended Cassia.
Faced with Piacenza No. 22, who was just a hasty shot and was like a thorn in the ball, Giani felt that it was enough for him to be alone.
The player's performance was very similar to a player without strength who suddenly got a chance to play. He was panicked, made frequent mistakes, and had no threats. This is Giani's positioning of Liu Feng.
But what happened next surprised him.
After Piacenza's backcourt Scapelli grabbed the ball in his midfield and backcourt, he passed a long pass to find Cassia in the frontcourt. Giani was very familiar with this routine.
Next, Cassia usually heads the ball to Naingran, and then Naingran will have a long shot, so he hurriedly reminded his teammates to block Naingran's long shot.
But this time, Naingran made an unexpected move, and saw his vigorous thigh suddenly removed the ball with a clever force, and then directly sent a kick to pass it straight.
Who is this straight pass for?
While running forward to try to block the gap between teammates from the front and back, Giani saw the ball passing to his right rear. He stretched out his legs to the greatest extent to try to block the pass.
The ball finally hit Giani's toes and bounced, but it still ran through the middle position between him and his teammates and headed to the right position in the penalty area.
The moment Nainggalan passed the ball, there was no player around Liu Feng who was watching and defending.
Giani's lack of attention to him made him extremely comfortable against offside this time, and he was almost completely disturbed. Liu Feng quickly ran to the point where he could pass the ball directly.
But the ball is not so comfortable.
The ball, which was originally a low flat ball, turned into a high-altitude ball because of the touch of Giani's toes and fell from the air towards Liu Feng's back. If Liu Feng chose to turn around and take off and then turn around and shoot, it would obviously not be enough time.
Without time to think, Liu Feng made the most suitable choice for the current situation.
Liu Feng, who was running to the position, turned around and jumped up, stretched out his whole body. In front of the goalkeeper who was attacking and the defender who was thrown behind him, he raised his hand and ran toward him, he made a textbook barb shot.
The kicked ball passed through the goalkeeper who waved his hands in vain and flew into the goal.
"Barb hit the door!!! Oh my god, what did I see."
The fans of Piacenza were blown up. This Asian player who was questioned and said he had no presence just now, hit a barb when he got the opportunity for the first time.
"I've never seen such a great shot in the Reserve League."
"Neither I."
"Hmph, a bunch of scumbags, I've said that such a handsome player, how could he be an ordinary player?"
"...Okay, Karina, whatever you say is right."
On the court, after Liu Feng scored the goal, he lay on the lawn and had not yet gotten up. Naingran, Cassia, who was closest to him, and Scapelli, who had run the fastest after he scored, all ran over and pressed on him.
"Ahem, brothers, let me take a breath."
Liu Feng, who was overwhelmed by the pressure, was almost crying. Before he could make a celebration, he was forced to make a choice by his teammates who rushed over, and piled up people...
"Damn, Feng, your virginity is so cool!"
Scapelli, who was pressing directly on Liu Feng, did not withdraw immediately. He was still recalling the figure that he had just seen Liu Feng in the backcourt, as if spreading his wings.
He really couldn't find any adjectives to describe it. If he had to say it, it would be too cool, so cool!
After suppressing Liu Feng for a while, several people stood up one after another and pulled Liu Feng up. The players participating in the celebration ran back to their half with Liu Feng.
"What were you doing just now!"
Giani was surprised because the goal scored by No. 22 was so adorable, and he was also very angry because this goal had a great relationship with the defender who stayed in the end.
Being successfully offside by the opponent's forward is something that every team doesn't want to encounter, because it means humiliation to the entire back line.
"I swear, I lifted it up before the pass of the No. 14!" The teammate who was accused by Giani seemed innocent. He raised his hands and sweared that he had already set the offside line very promptly just now.
"Shit! Next I'll be the back-up central defender."
Giani naturally didn't believe in the nonsense of his teammates, but the ball was lost, and no matter how much criticism he added, it would not change this fact. He decided to control the offside line himself.
Francini off the court was very satisfied with Liu Feng's performance.
After Liu Feng scored the barb goal, he turned around and waved his hands excitedly at the fans who had never interacted.
This made the fans who had been neglected by this weird old man flattered and hurriedly reached out to respond.
The ball was re-opened after the players on both sides stood up.
At this time, the game time was only ten minutes after Liu Feng took the field, and this goal that overtaked the score could be called a Thunder strike.
For a moment, Vicenza's head coach was a little confused about what role Liu Feng played, so he did not make any adjustments for the time being.
After kickoff, Liu Feng became the invisible shadow striker again.
Vicenza's back defense members began to distract more of their energy on Liu Feng, but compared to Cassia, Liu Feng was still much less cared for.
Because compared to Cassia who is very active and frequently attacking, Liu Feng, who even touches the ball, does not feel the threat.
"Do you continue to choose to let Liu Feng go?"
Off the court, Francini and Lucas chatted: "This will be the worst choice Vicenza has made."
Lucas nodded: "Isn't this what you hope most for head coach?"
"Is that so? Hey, Old Man Pia from Vicenza is going to be in trouble."
Looking at Franceni, who looked at Vicenza's head coach with a smirk, Lucas couldn't hold on to the impression of the old coach being serious and serious.
Chapter completed!
