Chapter 1387 There are five of the four heavenly kings
Although Carey suffered a targeted defense from Real Catharon, although the Madrid Pirates adopted a rotation in this game.
But this was the Pirates' home court after all, and the home team, which had the right time and place, still took the initiative on the field. They continued to attack Royal Cathorn's goal.
The latter adopts defensive counterattack tactics, so they are on the defensive during the game.
For the first fifteen minutes of the game, most of the time was dominated by Madrid Pirates attacking and Real Catajon defending.
In the 16th minute, Carey took the ball in the frontcourt and was pulled by Royal Cathorn midfielder Masao Yonezawa.
The referee called Masao Yonezawa for a foul and gave the Madrid Pirates a free kick 32 meters away from the goal and slightly to the left.
Carey and Toni both stood behind the football.
Before Carey was injured, the Madrid Pirates had two free kick masters, the Brazilian Toni and the Dutch Carey.
Toni is good at elevator shots and drop shots, while Carey is good at banana shots.
The two are completely different types of free kick takers.
The two of them standing behind the ball at the same time will add confusion to the goalkeeper, who doesn't know how to defend this free kick.
In the end, it was Tonini who took the penalty - after the referee blew the whistle, Carey just leaned forward slightly and made a fake move to run up, but actually didn't move even half a step.
The football was kicked towards the goal by Tonini next to him.
The free kick kicked by the Brazilian free kick master was of high quality. It passed over the wall from above and then fell rapidly.
Fortunately, Real Catalon goalkeeper Salva Rodriguez was very focused. He moved in advance, then jumped into the air, stretched his body as much as possible in the air, and then lightly stretched his arms... to lift the flying football out. Off the crossbar!
"Tonini...what a pity! Rodriguez made a high-quality save! Corner kick from Madrid Pirates!"
The Madrid Pirates fans in the stands let out a sigh of regret.
Although the game has only started for ten minutes, everyone hopes that the team can score as soon as possible to give fans like them reassurance.
The battle for the league title is becoming increasingly fierce, with Madrid Pirates currently only one point behind the Madrid Kings in the standings.
This round of the league is their best chance to catch up with the Kings - because in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, the Kings of Madrid only defeated Blue and White Munich 1:0. In order to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, the Kings of Madrid will definitely Carry out extensive rotation in this round of league games to preserve strength for the Champions League match next week.
Therefore, it is possible that the King of Madrid will fall at the feet of Sebastian in the away game.
Only if the Pirates defeat Real Catalon at home first, then if there is something wrong with the Madrid Kings, they will have a chance to achieve a lead in the standings.

After the Madrid Pirates' corner kick was taken, the placement was not very good.
Hu Lai in the penalty area couldn't get a shot because the football flew behind him, so he turned around and raised his leg to stop the ball.
But it was too difficult. He almost tore off his balls and just rubbed the football with his toes.
The football he knocked off fell to Tobera Casases, a player from Real Catharón.
At the same time, Damian Dea rushed up, trying to compete for the second spot.
Casases didn't have time to wait for the football to fall, so he turned around and tried to make a save.
But because the height of the football is still a bit high, his clearance was not successful.
The football flew out of the penalty area at a not very fast speed and went straight to Maxi Carey who was outside the top of the penalty arc. He did not enter the penalty area to join in the fun just now during the corner kick. Now with his physical and mental state, he always let him Subconsciously I don’t want to get into the crowd.
But he also waited for football!
Also rushing out with the football were the Royal Caterhorn players. They pressed forward collectively, intending to cause offside.
At this time, if a Madrid Pirates player reacts slowly and falls into the penalty area, he will be offside.
So the Madrid Pirates players are also retreating.
In addition to causing offside, Cathorn's center back Tomas Szczewicek strode towards Kyrie, because Kyrie was now undefended!
Seeing Szevicek approaching, Kyrie seemed afraid to face his sharp edge. He was facing the goal and stepped aside to let the football pass, as if he wanted to use his body to protect the football.
But this flash also caused the Madrid Pirates to lose the opportunity to attack. Then he could only pass the football back and reorganize the attack.
※※※
Hu Lai, who was running back with the players from both sides in the penalty area, saw this scene and quickly turned his head to look at his position.
He was behind the Royal Caterhorn defence, in other words - he was offside.
If Kyrie wants to pass the football back and reorganize the offense, it doesn't matter if he is offside now, there is no need to worry.
However, Hulay accelerated and sprinted back, surpassing the Royal Cathorn right back Benjamin Maldonado who was trailing behind, and escaped from the offside state.
That is, just when he crossed the non-existent "offside line", Kyrie, who had passed the football outside the penalty area, suddenly, with his back to the direction of attack, knocked the football behind him with his right heel!
He exerted so much force that his body had to be thrust forward to exert force, as if a bow was fully drawn!
Football is the arrow shot by this bow!
This time Kaili surprised everyone.
The football first rushed past Szevicek, who rushed forward to press for Kyrie, but the opponent had no reaction.
Then he passed between Tobera Casases and another Royal Catharhon center back Jacob Tipland.
The two men turned around following the football and saw Hu Lai catching the ball behind them!
The two of them, including Maldonado, raised their arms while chasing back, indicating that Hulay was offside.
But neither the referee nor the linesman expressed anything - now that there is a video referee team, the on-field referee will not easily indicate the offside situation, but will wait until the attack is over before looking at the video referee team. How is it determined?
Hu Lai turned around and passed the football, then directly raised his right foot and shot the football towards the goal... into the upper corner!
Although Real Catharon goalkeeper Salva Rodriguez struggled to press out and block the shooting angle, he still failed...
He fell to the ground, unable to do anything about Hu Lai's shot. He could only turn around and watch the football fly into the goal behind him!
"The ball...the ball has been scored!!" He Feng shouted excitedly, but then he asked in an uncertain tone: "Isn't this ball offside?"
Yan Kang couldn't wait to say: "I think it shouldn't be offside!"
The Pirates fans at the scene don't care whether the ball is offside or not, as long as the football flies into the goal, they cheer!
Amidst the roaring and tsunami-like cheers, the referee's whistle was barely audible, but he still used gestures to express the result of the ball's penalty - he pointed his finger at the center circle, and the goal was valid!
At the same time, the TV broadcast also provided multi-angle replays of the moment Kyrie passed the ball.
Through the lines drawn by the video referee team, everyone can clearly see that at the moment when Kyrie’s heel knocked the ball, it was not Hulay who was dragged behind, but the right back Maldonado of Real Catalon, who was bigger than Hulay. Exposed half of the shoulder!
It can be said that it is completely within a millimeter!
"Not offside! Not offside! What a great ball! Kyrie's pass was really wonderful! Even if he hesitated a little and looked back more... Hu Lai might have been offside!"
"Dutch superstar Maxi Carey is known for his excellent technique and full of imagination when playing football. This ball fully demonstrates his ability in this area!"
"Aha! Kyrie! Kyrie! His pass deceived almost everyone, except Hu! Hu seemed to have known that Kyrie would pass the ball like this, and the timing of the pass and run was as good as the two of them in private. It’s the same as it has been practiced many times!”
After confirming that the goal was valid, the commentators did not have to worry that their passion would be in vain and they went crazy collectively.
Generally speaking, it is very beautiful to send such a precise through ball in the attack. Kyrie took this excitement to another level. He used his heel to send a comparable ball with his back to the direction of the attack. A through ball under normal conditions.
The football knocked out by his heel penetrated the ten-meter space on the field and pierced the defense line of Royal Cathorn!
Then he accurately passed the ball to Hu Lai's feet and assisted him to break the deadlock.
※※※
When the football flew into the goal, Joaquin Vela, who was not far from Kyrie, rushed up immediately, hugged Kyrie and celebrated with him.
Not only him, but others also rushed towards Kairi.
When Hu Lai turned around, he saw that Kaili was surrounded by his teammates.
It looked like it was not him who scored the goal just now, but Kyrie.
But Hu Lai didn't feel unhappy in his heart, but was surprised...surprised by Kyrie's pass just now.
At that time, after he watched the football rolling over, he had no other thoughts in his mind. He only focused on catching the ball and shooting.
After completing the shot and scoring the goal, his brain has time to think about what happened just now:
Holy shit, Kyrie knocked the football over with his heel with his back to the goal? !
But in fact, he was facing the goal at first... Instead, he passed the football and turned his back to the direction of attack...
Why didn't he pass the ball directly when facing the goal?
Do you have to turn around and pretend to be strong and use your heel?
Oh, no...if he had passed the ball directly, I would have been offside!
He had seen this a long time ago, so he decided to turn around and wait...
At the peak of the "Four Kings", Hulay had never played with them - Cerrados' competitive status has now declined.
So in fact, he lacks an intuitive understanding of how strong the "Four Heavenly Kings" are, and he doesn't have a deep understanding of how strong Maxi Carey is, who is as famous as the "Four Heavenly Kings".
Now that he saw Kaili's charming story, he understood some of the "meme" that was widely circulated at the time:
As we all know, the "Four Heavenly Kings" are actually five people. (End of chapter)
