Chapter 173 An unusually stalemate game
In the second minute of injury time, Sanchez dribbled the ball from the left and penetrated into the penalty area, attracting the defense of two defenders, Desena and Lugini.
Facing Sampdoria's double defense, Sanche, who was skilled and brave, suddenly made a fake move to accelerate and break through to the bottom line.
The moment when the two defenders moved forward in the center of gravity, Sanchez suddenly made a low cross with his left foot.
The football happened to pass through the middle of two Sampdoria's defenders and happened to be at the feet of his fellow Chilean Isla.
On the edge of the small penalty area, Isla took the ball with her back and squeezed Sampdoria's central defender Gastaldello.
At this moment, Udinese's center Denis suddenly accelerated and ran past Isra, while shouting for the ball from Isra.
In order to prevent Denis from taking the ball and taking the ball, Gastaldello quickly retreated and closed the near corner of the goal.
Unexpectedly, Isla did not choose to pass the ball, but took the ball and turned around directly. After shook Gastaldello's defense, he directly shot the far corner of the goal with his right foot!
The distance was only 5 or 6 meters, and the ball was too fast and the angle was too tricky. Although Chu Jiang made a save move at the first time and encountered the football, he was unable to play the football in the end.
The football hit the inside of the post and bounced into the net.
1:1, Udinese tied the score at the last moment!
Like Sampdoria, Udinese also used the stars' personal abilities to score a goal that left the goalkeeper powerless.
"What a pity. The Sampdorians are about to win this game, but they didn't expect that they would be tied by their opponents at the last moment."
"However, this is exactly the charm of football. Until the last moment, you will never guess the final result!"
On the sidelines, Guidolin smiled with his hands.
The goal scored was Isla, who had just replaced the game, and the assisted the goal was Sanchez, who only played in the second half, Guidolin's two substitutions were all effective at the last moment of the game. For the head coach, this is of course a very happy thing.
This fully proves that Guidolin's on-site command is quite powerful.
Sampdoria's head coach Di Carlo seemed a little depressed.
The cooked duck flew away; the victory you got was gone; no matter who it was, the mood would be a little dark when encountering such a situation.
He raised his head and Di Carlo looked at Chu Jiang with some concern.
As a head coach, I have never seen any scenes. Although it is not common today, Di Carlo has also encountered them. Although he is a little depressed, he can quickly adjust his mentality so that he will not be disturbed by too many negative emotions.
On the court, most of the players are experienced players, and they have strong psychological adjustment ability, and they can basically adjust their mentality.
However, Chu Jiang is a newcomer, with not very rich experience in the competition, young and small, and his opponent broke the door he guarded at the last moment. Will he bear psychological burdens and affect his subsequent performance?
Di Carlo was a little worried.
In fact, Chu Jiang has no responsibility for this goal conceded.
Without the interference of the defender, the opponent's shot from 6 meters in front of the goal will be powerless as long as the angle is not very straight and just hit the goalkeeper's arms.
Even a goalkeeper like Buffon, or a goalkeeper like Caslias, who reacts very quickly, will be out of reach in such a situation and can only be done with nothing.
Because no matter how powerful a goalkeeper is, he is not omnipotent.
Otherwise, there is no need to set up a defender in football games, just play 055 formation, and all players participate in the offense.
Although the conceding of the goal has nothing to do with Chu Jiang, the conceding of the goal at the last moment is always frustrating, and it will test the player's self-regulation ability.
If the adjustment is well, there will be no impact on the next game; if the adjustment is not well, it will bring unnecessary psychological pressure, which will affect the subsequent performance level, and may even make mistakes that should not be made, which will affect the entire team.
What is the ability of the young Chu Jiang to regulate himself?
Di Carlo frowned and looked at his door. He was a little worried about Chu Jiang who was inexperienced.
However, when he saw Chu Jiang's performance on the court, Di Carlo smiled.
After throwing the ball away, Chu Jiang was only depressed for a second. Then, he punched the lawn with one box and quickly stood up.
"The next ball, you must not let them enter!"
Chu Jiang cheered himself up.
Soon, he was regained his energy and was not affected by the unexpected goal conceding.
In the game, always look forward and not be upset about what has happened. Only such a player will become a great player!
After cheering for himself, Chu Jiang walked to Gastaldello.
"Gastaldello, you should stick to Isla the ball just now. Even if he passes it to Denis, Denis's shot angle is very small, and I can block his near corner."
Chu Jiang quickly found the reason for conceding the goal and analyzed Gastaldello.
"Uh... I was deceived by Isla's fake moves at that time and thought he was going to pass the ball. Moreover, I didn't notice your position and followed him in a hurry."
Gastaldello explained.
"It's okay, there's only one they can get in!"
Chu Jiang patted Gastaldello on the shoulder and said with no concern. It seemed as if he was comforting Gastaldello.
When Di Carlo saw this scene, he smiled. He knew that Chu Jiang must be fine. This kid's psychological tolerance was even stronger than he thought!
Soon, the referee whistle blew and declared the end of the 90-minute game.
Since this game is a single knockout match, the winner must be decided. In the 90-minute game, the two teams will continue to play overtime until the winner is decided.
This is Chu Jiang's first time playing overtime.
If the winner cannot be decided in overtime, Chu Jiang will also usher in his first penalty shootout.
In the 9th minute of overtime, an unexpected situation occurred on the court.
In the wing defense, Desena tackled Sanchez and was fouled by the referee. As a result, Desena was dissatisfied and he applauded and satirized the referee's decision, but the referee showed the second yellow card.
Two yellows turned red, and Desena was directly expelled from the field. For the rest of the time, Sampdoria had to fight with 10 people.
Although Desena was out, Chu Jiang still arranged the team's defense line very well and did not give Udinese any chance.
With the help of a steady defense, the Sampdoria team was the first to get the opportunity.
In the last minute of the first half of the overtime game, Pacini was knocked down by the opponent's defense 29 meters in front of the goal, and Sampdoria won another free kick.
At this time, captain Palonbo had been replaced by striker Pozi, and the one who took the free kick became the number one star on the court.
Pacini's free kick this time was very high quality, but unfortunately he finally hit the upper edge of the goal crossbar and bounced out.
The Udinese, who escaped, launched the most threatening attack in the game in the last minute of the second half of the overtime game.
At that time, it was Udinese's long pass from the middle and backcourt.
Just as Gastaldello was about to clear the ball, Denis rushed over quickly.
After a pair of feet, the football fell just in front of the staggering Denis.
Lukini quickly made up for the position, preparing to grab Denis's ball and prevent him from continuing to move forward.
At this moment, Isla rushed up from the other side of the court and signaled Denis to pass the ball to him.
Denis did not hesitate. Before his body stood firm, he passed the ball out with one kick, just in front of Isla.
Originally, Desena should have defended this position. However, since Desena's red card left the court, there was no one to guard Isena.
This is a single shot opportunity!
If Isla scores this goal for Udinese, the whole game will end, and Udinese will laugh to the end at the Malasi Stadium.
Because the remaining time is not enough for Sampdoria to launch its last counterattack.
This is a unique opportunity to kill the suspense of the game!
Isla vs Chujiang!
The time to test Chu Jiang has come!
Facing the football route, Isla rushed forward at full speed!
Lukini and Gastaldero raised their arms and signaled that Isra would be offside first.
However, the border lieutenant did not raise the flag.
The referee ignored the complaint of the Sampdoria defender and continued to run forward.
At this moment, the most dramatic scene in the audience was born!
When Isla was about to receive the football, he suddenly staggered and lost control of the ball.
Chu Jiang, who had decisively abandoned the goal, certainly would not miss such an opportunity. He rushed forward at a very fast speed, fell to the ground and threw the ball in his arms, successfully resolving Udinese's last chance!
After the game, according to Isla's recollection, he was startled by Chu Jiang's sudden yell. However, Chu Jiang just laughed at Isla's remarks but did not respond to it.
"You guess slowly, haha!" Chu Jiang responded with a laugh in the face of the curious reporters.
Shortly after Udinese's attack ended in failure, the referee blew the whistle to the end of overtime, and the game officially entered the cruel penalty kick stage!
According to expert research, during normal game time, the success rate of players' penalty kicks is as high as 90%. However, in the penalty shootout, this success rate will drop rapidly to about 60%.
It can be seen that psychological factors and stress resistance will largely determine the outcome of the penalty shootout.
In Chu Jiang's first penalty shootout, as a goalkeeper, what kind of answer will he deliver?

Bow and thank the dog classmate who wore shorts for the reward!
