Chapter 170 Let me come!

His teammates have left, and Zheng Long is still practicing on the court.

However, it is different from the previous long pass and physical training.

On this day, Zheng Long stood on the right side of the penalty area, about 28 meters away from the goal.

He looked at the human-shaped wooden board in front of the door as a shield, took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, ran up a few steps, ran to the ball, leaned his body, and slammed his right foot towards the ball.

The ball immediately crossed an arc and headed straight for the goal.

boom!

The ball hit the goalpost directly and bounced high.

flew away.

Zheng Long shook his head, he cared too much about those obstacles just now, he always wanted to bypass them, but the ball didn't hold it down.

You need to practice more!

Zheng Long put another ball on the ground, took a few steps back, raised his head to look at the goal, and ran up...

Head coach Popovich and the coaching staff finished discussing the tactics and precautions for the next game against Getafe and walked out of the office.

I saw Zheng Long practicing hard under the lights on the court.

To his surprise, Zheng Long seemed to be practicing free kicks!

He was a little uncertain and asked his assistant coach Nekens. "Is Zheng Long practicing free kicks?"

Nekens looked over and said with certainty. "Yes!"

"How did he practice free kicks?" Popovich was very puzzled.

Zheng Long has been honing his long pass, and Popovich knows it.

He also agrees very much, after all, if a goalkeeper has a long pass, it is still very useful!

But a free kick?

So what if the goalkeeper has practiced free kicks?

Like his predecessor Jose Luis Chilavert?

But even Jose Luis Chilavert didn't score a goal in Zaragoza for three years!

Nekens couldn't say for sure. "Maybe he wants to test the free kick himself, so that he can better help him judge the free kick in the game! After all, Ronaldo in La Liga is a master of free kicks!"

"Oh. It makes sense to say that!" Popovich felt that Nekens' statement was very credible. "Hey! Others say that Zheng Long is a genius, but how do they know that even a genius needs to spend countless sweats to hone his skills before he can be called a world-class star! We are really lucky to have a player like Zheng Long! "

"Yes! That is, he only has 2 years left in his contract with the club. Now I heard that he has not renewed his contract with the club!" Nekens said thinking of one thing.

"It's good to leave this matter to Mr. Valdano. We just need to do our own thing!" Popovich also knew that he had no right to speak about Zheng Long's contract. .

He didn't bother to ask.

He is now only considering Zaragoza's results this season.

As for next season?

If Zheng Long turned back and left, he might have to leave quickly.

In order to avoid being driven away in despair in the end.

Coaches like Popovich and Nekens have all left.Zheng Long was still standing alone under the dim light, continuing to practice his free kicks.

……

On October 2015, 10, Zaragoza challenged Getafe away.

Getafe's starting lineup is a 442 lineup with a balanced offense and defense.

Goalkeeper: Guaita

Defenders: Rodriguez, Damian Suarez, J-Ruiz, Alvaro Pereira;

Midfielders: Pedro Leon, Larsen, Sarabia, Medran;

Forwards: Amy, Goytom.

Zaragoza is still a 343 lineup.

From the first minute of the game, Zaragoza, who played away, turned the host away and held high the banner of offense.

The Zaragoza players fought fiercely against Getafe in the frontcourt.

Determined to win this victory.

10 minutes into the game, when Getafe faced Zaragoza's struggle, they could only pass back frequently or drive forward with big feet.

Almost 15 minutes into the game, Getafe only had a long-range shot from outside the penalty area to end the attack.

That long shot poses no threat to Zheng Long at all.

Zheng Long held the ball and passed it to Nani with his big foot.

As Zaragoza's second-largest player and one of the important means of attack, Nani can get a lot of opportunities to get the ball every game.

This time, he received the ball near the middle circle.

After he got the ball, he began to dribble straight forward.

His speed is not fast, and he has not dribbled the ball with full sprint.

Seeing that Nani was about to advance with the ball, Getafe's Larsen hurried forward to intercept it.

He turned to Nani.

In the process of adjusting his weight, Nani dribbled the ball in front of him.

Seeing that he was about to run in front of Larsen, Nani stepped on his bicycle, accelerated suddenly, and used his speed to forcefully eat the opponent.

After passing Larsen with a fake move, Nani dribbled the ball inside and cut to Getafe's penalty area.

J- Ruiz, Pedro - Leon rushed to Nani.

The two people, one on the left and the other on the right, formed a corner and approached Nani.

Nani made a croquette. After passing Ruiz, Nani used his personal skills to tear apart the opponent's line of defense. After getting out of the neutral position, Nani immediately shot.

The ball flew against the turf towards the far post of the goal.

When Guaita fell.

slow.

The ball has rolled into the goal.

In the 25 minutes of the first half, Nani scored a goal using his personal skills.

Seeing this scene, Getafe's coach Pepe Bodalas was very helpless.

When some players break out suddenly, it is very difficult to guard against.

Just like Nani just 1v3 and scored the ball.

Although he knew it, Pepe Bodalas also knew that he had to change his pre-match strategy.

Now that the score is behind, they can no longer be conservative and must press the offense.

Even if they lose in the end, they can't back down now.

Because it is their home field now.

The attitude that must be shown is to win the hearts of fans.

Amidst the cheering and cheering of the fans, Getafe changed its strategy and began to attack Zaragoza.

In the 34th minute, Saravia was tripped by Gallareta in the frontcourt.

Getafe gets a free kick.

Medlan sent a cross into the penalty area. Amy's header was blocked by the feet of central defender Vallejo.

The ball hit Galareta's back and bounced straight to Goytom's feet.

Seeing the ball fly, Goytom was overjoyed.

God loves me!

Cabrera and Vallejo did not expect that the ball would fall at the feet of Goytom in such a strange way.

They flew over, trying to stop Goytom.

Where will Goytom miss this good opportunity, it is in the small penalty area.

He hit the ball with fury.

Under Goytom's incredible eyes, Zheng Long flew up above the goal line, his open hands were like a spider web, completely covering the goal!

"Hey!"

The Getafe fans groaned and sat down again.

Alfredo Martínez, the commentator of Spanish Radio Zero, shouted excitedly.

"Goytom's shot was blocked by Zheng Long. This is a world-class save! This is an impeccable perfect save!"

"Zheng Long saved Zaragoza again! We can't remember how many times this magical and talented goalkeeper has saved Zaragoza this season! He is a well-deserved patron saint of Zaragoza! "

"Hold on to the glory of Zaragoza!"

Obviously, the commentator Alfredo Martinez never thought that Zheng Long could save Amy's shot from such close range.

He did not hesitate to praise Zheng Long for his outstanding performance.

Larsen sent a corner kick and passed it to the small penalty area, and was directly hugged by Zheng Long in the air.

He immediately fought back.

His precise long pass has always been one of Zaragoza's offensive weapons for quick counterattacks.

The ball was distributed to the space on the right, Joaquin dribbled the ball and ran inside the penalty area. He stepped on his bicycle and stunned the defender with a low shot with his left foot.

It's a pity that the ball went slightly wide and flew out of the baseline on the left.

The game continued, and although Getafe stepped up their offensive, Zaragoza still had the upper hand.

In the 43rd minute, Nani made a pass from the left, and Baston broke through the double-teaming.

In the second half, neither team made substitution adjustments.

On the 49th minute,

Passing the ball, Amy single-handedly broke into the left side of the penalty area, and Zheng Long blocked the shot with his left foot 9 meters away from the goal.

The 56th minute.Nani's left-footed free kick from 32 meters in front of the goal was hit by Guaita and hit the right post. Hajić volleyed with his left foot and pushed into the empty goal, 2-0.

In the 60th minute, Getafe took the lead in making adjustments. V-Rodriguez replaces Pedro Leon.

In less than 5 minutes, Amy was replaced by another striker Vazquez.

Here Zaragoza also replaced the veteran Joaquin with Costa in the 70th minute.

The 73rd minute.Zaragoza expands its advantage!

Costa made a steal in the frontcourt, Pedro scored the ball on the right side of the penalty area, and William Jose made a call into the far corner with the instep of his left foot 7 meters in front of the goal, 3-0.

Getafe can't expect a comeback now.All they want is to score a goal and save face.

It's just that the interceptor Zheng Long stood in front of Zaragoza's gate.

Getafe can't conquer Zheng Long's door no matter what method they use.

The time passed minute by minute, and now the regular time is over, and it is time for stoppage time.

When Nani dribbled the ball towards Getafe, he was directly brought down by Saravia.

The referee blew the whistle and Zaragoza took a free kick in the frontcourt.

At this time, Zaragoza's players walked forward slowly, and they all wanted to use this free kick opportunity to run out the last time.

In the face of Zaragoza's delay of time, Getafe has no interest in complaining.

Now they wish that time would pass quickly and leave quickly.

Narrator Alfredo Martinez spoke.

"Saravia fouled, and Zaragoza got a free kick in the frontcourt. If this free kick is taken, the game should be over!"

"If Zaragoza win this game, they will still be 2 points behind Barcelona and rank second in the league!"

"The newly promoted Zaragoza performed very well this season, but Barcelona remains strong. It is not easy for Zaragoza to reverse Barcelona!"

When commentator Alfredo Martinez was commenting on this game, he suddenly exclaimed.

"Hey, what happened?"

Just when he was about to serve, Zheng Long thought that the team won anyway.

At this time, if you don't practice your free kick ability in actual combat, when will you wait?

Zheng Long abandoned the door and ran to the frontcourt like flying.

he shouted as he ran. "Pedro wait!"

Under the suspicious eyes of central defenders Vallejo and Cabrera, Zheng Long ran all the way to Pedro.

Pedro stopped when he heard Zheng Long's shout.

He looked back at Zheng Long. "What's wrong? Dragon!"

Zheng Long ran all the way over, without bothering to catch his breath, he hurriedly shouted. "This ball let me take the penalty!"

"You?" Pedro never thought that Zheng Long would make such a request.

"Zheng, if you play, there will be no one guarding the goal!"

"It doesn't matter! Anyway, we are leading by 3 goals. Now there is only 1 minute left in the game. Even if the opponent scores a goal, we can still win!"

"Uh……"

That said, there is nothing wrong with that.

but……

Pedro still felt that it was inappropriate to do so.

"Trust me!" Zheng Long said seriously.

Does Pedro believe it?

He can trust Zheng Long's saving skills, but free kicks?

He couldn't believe it!

He subconsciously looked at coach Popovich.

But at this time Popovich also looked confused!

Zheng Long to take a free kick?

This is why he practiced hard for free kicks during this time?

What is this ghost?

Does he feel that he has perfected goalkeeping, and now he wants to do something else?

Pedro saw that the head coach Popovich didn't say anything at all, and he didn't know what to do for a while!

At this time, he saw that the referee probably thought that Zaragoza had delayed too long.

The chief referee came over to warn them, and even drew their cards.

Pedro had to get out of the way and let Zheng Longlai take the free kick.

As Zheng Long said, anyway, the game is about to end.

The team leads by 3 goals, so what if he takes the penalty!

Zheng Long has been guarding the team's gate all the time, showing his professionalism.

Letting him take a free kick now is also an affirmation of his credit.

radio commentator Alfredo Martinez exclaimed excitedly.

"Oh! It looks like Zheng Long is going to take this free kick!"

"Could Zheng Long want to learn from former Paraguayan legendary goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert? Show off his footwork?"

"As for Zheng Long's ability to save in front of the goal, I believe everyone is very clear. It is a wall of sighs, a wall of despair that makes opponents only sigh! But as for his free kick ability, I believe everyone is the same as me. Not at all clear!"

"What is the free kick level of the interceptor Zheng Long? Let us wait and see!"

Not to mention the curious fans of Zaragoza, even the fans of Getafe are very curious.

The fans who originally wanted to leave the field early did not leave now, they all stood up and looked at Zheng Long standing on the field.

I want to see the free kick technique of that Chinese goalkeeper.

Everyone else was just curious, but Getafe goalkeeper Guaita was angry!

In this game, Getafe's gate was captured by Zaragoza 3 times.

Zaragoza's gate was held by Zheng Long, and he did not concede a goal.

Such a comparison shows that Guaita's level is very bad.

If so, forget it.

Now this bastard Zheng Long actually wants to take a free kick and humiliate himself.

If goalkeeper Zheng Long scored a goal, then I would be knocked down to the ground by him and kicked hard.

I lost all face!

No matter what you say, you can't let the opponent score.

Guaita shouted to his teammates and set up a wall of 5 people.

He spat on the glove, lowered his body, and stared at the ball under Zheng Long's feet with all his attention.

Zheng Long really didn't think that much.He just felt that, no matter how long he practiced off the court, he didn't have a kick in actual combat to make people understand his shortcomings.

Zheng Long looked at the situation in front of Getafe's goal, raised his right hand, and signaled his teammates to get ready.

Seeing that Zheng Long was going to take a free kick, other teammates felt that Zheng Long wanted to try to play a free kick.

Everyone has curiosity, not surprisingly.

Since you want to try a free kick, let's be happy with you.It didn't take much effort anyway.

Zaragoza's players are ready, just waiting for the ball.

Zheng Long put down his hands, took a few steps towards the ball, leaned his body, and pumped his right foot towards the ball!

The ball immediately crossed a line and flew towards...
