Chapter 1897 Kabanka has not given up yet
When Hu Lai kicked a goal in the penalty area, everyone saw the flight trajectory of the football and thought that Hu Lai had a kick.
How is this a shot?
It's a cross that didn't kick, right?
Tony Schulman didn't dare to be careless. Seeing Hu Lai swinging his legs, he reflexively made a save.
But he also muttered when he was in the air and saw the trajectory of the football.
I hope that my hard work is in vain. This is because Hu Lai didn't play well...
But then everyone saw the football crash into the goal!
At this moment, I don't know how many people were dumbfounded.
However, the fans of the Madrid Pirates and the Chinese fans must not be surprised. When the football flew into the goal, they jumped up from their seats with their arms high.
In the on-site commentary booth, many commentators also stood up from their seats, pressed the headset above their heads, and roared loudly.
"Beautiful! Hu Lai! This goal is beautiful! Scored twice! Hu Lai scored twice in the Champions League final! Hahaha! You really deserve to be 'Mr. Twice'!"
"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!! It's unbelievable! My God! I believe most people didn't expect such a final!"
"Huh! He scored again! This is the third goal of the Pirates in the first half! Only 26 minutes into the game, the Madrid Pirates took a three-goal lead! The Catalan United were beaten helplessly during the whole process! It's unbelievable! The Champions League final will present such a one-sided situation!"
"Oh my god! Three saps! The Cathay-Thai Union was completely stunned! I bet the Cathay-Thai Union themselves did not expect that the first 30 minutes of this final would be like this!"
After Hou Lai finished his celebration and replayed the goal twice, the close-up of the TV broadcast flashed across the main Catalan players in turn.
Everyone has a numb face, even Kabanka seems to have lost all emotions.
"I suddenly felt sympathy for Cathay United..."
Han Shuyu at the scene looked at the Catalan players on the big screen and muttered.
"Ah?" Li Qingliang was a little surprised, "Isn't your mortal enemy the Catalan United?"
As a fan of the King of Madrid before, Han Shuyu is absolutely impossible to have a good impression of the King's arch-enemy Catalan United. Later, she straddled the fence and fell to the Madrid Pirates, and the Catalan United happened to have a lot of grievances and grievances with Hou Lai.
"I just think the Catalan United are so pitiful... They couldn't win in the league, and now they have lost even worse in the Champions League..." Han Shuyu shook his head and sighed. "Kabangka this season is actually very strong. Finally, Meli's state was not good enough, and he met Hu Lai again. He was playing in Manchester and reached the final of the Champions League, but lost to Gribusch who was at his peak The blue and white Munich under the leadership, now reached the final again, but they were conceded three goals in less than 30 minutes... It's so sad!"
"After you say that, I also feel that Kabangka is pitiful..." Li Qingliang felt sorry for him.
※※※
Meli, who was watching the game in front of the TV, saw the numb Kabanka on the screen, feeling complicated.
If it was before, he would definitely be happy for Kabanka's failure.
But after his defeat in last season's Champions League final, he now has some sympathy for Kabunka instead...
Because he can empathize.
He knew all too well the desperation of facing Hu Lai in the final.
Especially after he had just completed a hat-trick with a beautiful goal, and then was directly blasted in by Hou Lai with a kick-off opportunity.
What is despair?
Desperation is when you find out that you have worked so hard to do something, and the other party will get it done lightly.
You can't help but start to doubt yourself.
This season, he has hardly escaped from the shadow of his defeat in the Champions League final last season, so his performance has been ups and downs, with ups and downs.
Fortunately, near the end, he finally got rid of the huge shadow in his heart.
The disastrous defeat in the Champions League final could finally be left behind by him, and he was able to go into battle lightly and start again.
Although the failure of this season is irreversible, the contest between him and Hu Lai will definitely not be limited to one or two seasons.
It is conceivable that throughout his future career, the competition between him and Hu Lai will be the main theme...

In fact, the game is not over yet... Not only is it not over, the final has just started in less than 30 minutes.
But in many people's hearts, they feel that Cathay-Thailand has already lost.
In the Champions League final, is there a precedent for falling behind by three goals in the first half, recovering in the second half, and even reversing to win?
have.
But only once.
It was the 1993-1994 Champions League final. The King of Madrid was three goals behind the Blue and White Munich at halftime, and everyone thought the King was finished.
But in the end, the King of Madrid relied on the iron and blood struggle of the then captain Cuera, and scored three consecutive cities in the second half to equalize the score.
Then scored the winning penalty in overtime, defeated Blue and White Munich 4:3 and won the championship.
This game is also considered an eternal classic in the history of the Champions League final, and it is the best representative of the sportsmanship of never giving up.
But just this once.
Take this isolated case to prove that Cathay-Thailand can also be ... somewhat difficult.
After the game restarted, Catalan United's performance did not show signs of improvement.
Although the statistics show that the possession rate of Catalan United is obviously superior, the Madrid Pirates still have more opportunities to threaten the opponent's goal.
As the real core of the Catalan offensive organization, Kabanka was completely targeted by the Madrid Pirates.
As long as he gets the ball, it is definitely not one person defending him, but at least two people.
One of them posted it, and the other followed closely, waiting for an opportunity to steal the ball at any time.
Although Kabanka has superb skills with his feet, he is no match for a pack of wolves. Even if he can pass one or two, he will still fall into the encirclement of the Madrid pirates as the time of possession increases.
The end result is still... conceded.
Of course, he can also create fouls for pirate players and win set-piece opportunities for Catalan United.
However, the Catalan United failed to threaten the Madrid Pirates' goal through these frontcourt set kicks.
Until the end of the first half, the score did not change again.
Madrid Pirates lead Catalan 3:0.
Hu Lai scored twice, and Kamara broke the net with a supplementary shot.

"This is the Iron Dome, the home stadium of Blue and White Munich. Playing in this stadium, I hope to remind you of the Champions League final thirty-six years ago. One of the protagonists was Blue and White Munich. Our sworn enemy Madrid The Kings were able to come back from a three-goal deficit in the first half of the final. Why can't we do that?"
In the locker room, after arranging tactical adjustments, Catalan United coach Reilly Vicente called all the players to get up from their seats, and everyone put their arms around the shoulders of the two people around them, forming a circle like this.
He is also in this "human ring", cheering up his players.
"We can beat them! It is impossible for them to continue to press that high in the second half, and their physical fitness does not support them. At that time, the Madrid Pirates will definitely shrink and play defensive counterattacks. We must be more patient when we have the ball, pass and run. Be faster! Everyone runs a little more, and together we will run one more person than them. Now we are cornered, and there is no other choice but to try our best! So focus on only one thing !"
"Come on! Catalonia! Come on! Catalonia!"
Captain Rosas shouted loudly after the head coach finished speaking.
Then the players in the locker room shouted together:
"Come on! Catalonia! Come on! Catalonia!"
※※※
Although during the intermission, Parotti also mentioned to the players the Champions League final 36 years ago, and used history as a mirror to warn the players not to let their guard down.
But in the second half they still let the Catalan United advance the goal.
The ninth minute of the second half, the fifty-fourth minute of the game.
Kabunka got a brief chance outside the penalty area.
At that time, Salado led the football from the side to the center. After attracting the defensive attention of the Madrid Pirates, he knocked the football horizontally to Kabanka outside the penalty area, and then he dodged to cut into the penalty area, as if to fight Kabanka hit a wall to cooperate.
All this attracted the defensive attention of the Madrid Pirates.
So the defense followed suit.
Although Joaquin Bella has quickly ran to Kabanka who took the ball.
But the Brazilian star still seized this opportunity, took a small step forward, and shot with his legs!
The football skimmed low above the turf, passed through the forest-like dense legs in the penalty area, and went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal!
Hywell's line of sight was completely blocked. He waited for the football to emerge from the crowd before making the save. How could he possibly save it?
Originally, Kabangka's shot was also very tricky!
Hywell fell to the ground and fluttered sideways, but couldn't touch the ball.
He could only watch the football slam into the net as it rubbed against the inside of the goal post!
"Kabangka! Kabangka! Beautiful! Kabangka! At the critical moment, he stood up! He scored a goal for Catalan, 1:3! Catalan is only two goals behind!" Catalo The Nia narrator was thrilled. "Have a chance! Don't be discouraged, Catalan lads! Kabanka has set the best example for you! Come on! Go! Never stop!"
"This ball... this ball, alas! It's really a manifestation of Kabangka's personal ability! When the team's offense was slow to start, Kabangka used his personal ability to solve the problem... This is a very subtle kick. Very beautiful long-range shot! In the contest with Hu Lai, Kabanka has not surrendered yet, and the Madrid Pirates should not relax!" He Feng sighed.
As a Spanish commentator, Sanchez has a relatively neutral attitude. Anyway, no matter who wins this game, it will be a victory for La Liga~lightnovelpub.net~ He is excited that the game will become more exciting: "Cabanca! Catalan United Haven’t given up yet! Although it can’t be said that the suspense has returned, the Kabanka ball is a huge boost to the morale of the Catalan United team! In the next game, the Catalan United will definitely attack more aggressively. See how the Madrid Pirates react!"
After the goal, Kabanka did not celebrate the goal, but called his teammate Lima, who was closest to the goal, to fish out the football from the goal and let the Madrid Pirates kick off quickly.
The Catalan fans who were very quiet in the first half seemed to be alive again at this time.
They cheered loudly, and from the stands where they had gathered, the Catalan flag waved like the waves of the sea.
When the Catalan fans celebrated and cheered, the Catalan players ran back to their own half.
Off the field, the Madrid Pirates coach Parotti is gesturing to the players on the field, signaling them not to worry, but to be steady.
Hu Lai on the field has already stood in the middle circle, and he is even earlier than the Catalan players.
Then he turned around and waved to his teammates behind him, signaling them to come up and kick off.
