Chapter 101 The world's best goalkeeper! Lin Feng stood on the outside of the ball, measured the distance with his feet, put his hands on his hips, and looked towards the Juventus goal. Juventus players have formed a human wall, and Inter Milan players are fighting with the opposing players near the wall. In front of Juventus' goal, Buffon bent his knees slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and was ready to make a save. He had studied Lin Feng's free kicks and knew that the opponent's approach was similar to that of Ballack, who used heavy artillery to bombard the goal. Although the technique is unremarkable, it highlights a toughness and domineering nature. If this kind of free kick is hit correctly, it is actually difficult to save. Because the ball is moving too fast and with too much force, the goalkeeper has too little time to react, and the save also requires a certain hand shape. If it is not handled properly, the ball may not be saved, but instead be refracted and bounce into his own goal. You might even hurt your hands if you're not careful! Therefore, Buffon must observe very carefully, accurately judge the flight trajectory of the football when it is in the air, and then hit or lift the ball with his fist or palm. It is impossible to grab the ball directly. It is easy to get injured and lose the ball. There is no need to take such a risk.
The referee's whistle sounded, Lin Feng took a deep breath and started to run. coming! The audience at the scene all held their breath and stared at Lin Feng's movements intently. A month and a half ago, in the Italian Super Cup, Lin Feng scored a free kick in this stadium. It was thanks to this goal that Inter Milan snatched the Super Cup from Juventus in front of them. Now, countless Juventus fans are worried that the same scene will happen again. The distance of several meters passed in a flash, and Lin Feng did not use his right foot to take the free throw as usual. This time, he used his left foot! With a loud bang, the outside of Lin Feng's left foot collided heavily with the football. The football quickly flew off the ground and into the sky. The Juventus players, who formed a human wall, jumped up quickly, trying to prevent the ball from passing over their heads. However, the flying height of the football was much higher than that of the human wall, and the high-jumping human wall was unable to play any role. In mid-air, Juventus players turned their heads and looked back, wanting to see the final result clearly. The fans in the stands made almost exactly the same movements as them. Everyone's eyes were cast towards Juventus' goal and fell on the man who had created countless miracles. At first, Buffon thought that Lin Feng was going to use a powerful shot to take the penalty, but when he saw that the opponent did not choose to use his dominant foot but chose to take the penalty with his left foot, he immediately realized that something was wrong. "What is this? A Mi-style free kick?" A very small leg swing, a powerful shot, a ball with a tricky angle and strong rotation. All this points to one person, a free kick master who has been active in Italian football for a long time - Mihajlovic! Oops! Standing in the wrong place! After Buffon judged the characteristics of the ball, he felt something was wrong.
If it was a heavy shot like Ballack, Lin Feng would be more likely to hit the far corner with his right foot. But if it was a Mihajlovic-style free kick, then the ball would most likely be heading for the near corner! The flight trajectory of the ball in the air proved his judgment, and Buffon quickly moved his feet, trying to make up for the loss. But before he could move into position, the ball had already flown in front of the goal! There’s nothing we can do, the ball is too fast! Although Lin Feng used Mihajlovic's tactics, the power of the shot came from Ballack! Buffon hadn't moved into position yet, but there was no time left, so he had to hastily stretch out his left hand and try to stop the ball. However, this ball was not only fast and powerful, but also had a very tricky angle. Buffon didn't move into position, and his outstretched hand was just a little bit short of the target. But it was just this small distance that brought completely different results. With a swish, the football flew into the net. Buffon also fell from the air to the ground, just like the high and mighty Juventus, fell into the mortal world. The stands of the Alpi Stadium were suddenly in chaos. Countless Juventus fans screamed in surprise and stood there in a daze. Countless people looked at their own goal in disbelief, totally unable to accept this result. That's Buffon! How could the goal guarded by the world's number one goalkeeper be breached so easily by the opponent? If it’s fake, it must be fake! But why did the sound of those damn Inter Milan fans celebrating next door seem so real? It was like a swarm of flies buzzing in their ears, and there was no way to drive them away! The Inter Milan fans, who were alone in a corner surrounded by a large number of home fans, were completely crazy with joy at this time. "This amazing Chinese kid is Inter Milan's lucky star!" "Hahaha, where is the pride that the Juventus players had just shown? Why don't they continue to be proud?" "So what if Buffon was defeated by Lin Feng?" "I declare that from today on, I am a die-hard fan of Lin Feng!" "Come on, you didn't even buy his jersey, what do you mean by die-hard fan? People like us are the real fans!" After saying that, he proudly showed off his jersey, which was the same jersey as Lin Feng on the court. Ever since Lin Feng joined Inter Milan, his jerseys have been selling well in Milan. Many Inter Milan fans were impressed by his skills after watching his games, and then chose to go to the store to buy his jersey to support the player. Based on the goal just now, there is reason to believe that after this game, more people will go to buy Lin Feng's jerseys. …… Although it was almost midnight, the domestic fans, who were used to staying up late, had no intention of going to bed. On the contrary, after seeing Lin Feng's goal, their sleepiness completely disappeared, and they were all excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood. "Damn, that free kick was so cool!"
"Awesome, really awesome, I think even a god would have a hard time saving this ball!" "Haha, I haven't seen Buffon so embarrassed in a long time!" "This should be the first Asian player to score a goal in the Italian national derby, right?!" "Haha, of course. These two teams have never signed Asian players in their history. Lin Feng is not only the first Asian player to score in the Italian national derby, but also the first Asian to appear in such a game!" "It seems that there is still a big gap between Asian football and other continents. It feels like every step forward taken by Lin Feng is breaking a record!" After scoring the goal, Lin Feng ran towards the stands where the away team's fans were. When he got to the bottom of the away team's stands, he opened his arms and made a gesture as if he was embracing the world. Inter Milan fans in the stands clapped and cheered wildly, trying to make the biggest noise in response to Lin Feng's hug. His teammates rushed up from behind, and Adriano excitedly jumped on his back, punching the fans in the stands to celebrate. This guy was too heavy, and Lin Feng, who was unprepared, was almost knocked to the ground by him. "Ade, you should lose weight!" "It feels like you've gained weight again!" Glancing at Adriano's belly, Lin Feng was a little worried that this guy might have a beer belly. …… Lin Feng's goal brought the two teams back to the same starting line. After equalizing the score, Inter Milan's morale was boosted, and they even suppressed Juventus in the final stage of the first half. This made Juventus fans extremely depressed, and many people even thought: Why didn't Vieira use a little more force in that kick just now! If this guy could really be disabled, there wouldn't be so many troubles. Looking at Lin Feng jumping around on the court, Vieira was also wondering: He was clearly kicked by me, so why is this guy not hurt at all? Is his body made of iron? Vieira plans to try again! However, before he could make a move on Lin Feng, someone from Juventus couldn't hold on any longer. In the 42nd minute, Materazzi tackled Ibrahimovic while defending. The part of Ibrahimovic's injury was almost exactly the same as Lin Feng's, but the difference was that Vieira's foul was a retaliatory foul, targeting someone. Materazzi was heading for the ball, and after tackling the ball, he clearly retracted his foot. But even so, the referee still showed him a yellow card. Ibrahimovic injured the inside of his right ankle and looked very painful. Seeing Ibrahimovic injured, Capello cursed inwardly and quickly asked Piero to warm up and prepare to play. When the Zebra Prince heard the head coach calling his name, he quickly took off his coat and rushed out with excitement on his face. Piero was already a little unhappy about not being able to make the starting lineup. If he missed this game again, he would be so depressed. But before Piero could finish warming up, after emergency treatment by the team doctor, Ibrahimovic said he could continue and limped back to the field. Juventus fans stood up and applauded Ibrahimovic.
Piero could only put on his coat again and sit back on the bench feeling a little disappointed. Nedved took a corner kick from the left, but neither Thuram nor Materazzi at the front point got the ball. Instead, Vieira suddenly made a forward run and got the ball, then completed a powerful header from 9 meters in front of the goal. If it were an ordinary goalkeeper, he would have surrendered in the face of such a heavy head chase. But Saint Cesar once again performed a miraculous save. After falling to the ground, he struggled to save the ball and helped Inter Milan resolve the danger. Before the Juventus players who missed the opportunity had time to feel sorry for the ball, the situation on the field changed again. Cambiasso got the ball that Cesar saved, and he passed it to the left wing before the opponent's players pressed him. Martins ran with the ball all the way towards Juventus' half. Adriano and Lin Feng in the middle also started sprinting at the first opportunity and rushed towards Juventus' half at the same time. Inter Milan's counterattack was fast and fierce. Most of the Juventus players who had just participated in the attack were still in the opponent's half and had no time to return to defense. Juventus only has Cannavaro and Blasi on its back line. The opponent had already had three players rushing into their half, and Juventus, who were at a numerical disadvantage, were obviously in an extremely disadvantageous position in defense. Cannavaro chose to ignore Martins on the wing and directed Brasi to keep a close eye on Lin Feng and Adriano in the middle. Martins' dribbling speed is not particularly fast, and his position is on the wing, so if he wants to shoot, he needs to cut inside. During this process, his teammates who are chasing back may be able to catch up. But if you ignore the two players in the middle and try to intercept the players on the opponent's wing, once the ball is passed to the middle, it will be completely over. Cannavaro’s choice was right, but Lin Feng and Adriano are not robots that only follow programs. When they saw the opponent's defensive strategy, they responded immediately. Lin Feng began to leave the middle and came to the flank area, taking the initiative to support Martins. Seeing this, Martins quickly passed the ball to Lin Feng and accelerated into the penalty area. Seeing that the target of the ball changed from Martins to Lin Feng, Cannavaro was forced to rush towards Lin Feng and adopt a strategy of oppressive defense against him. He has to come up. This guy is not only good at passing the ball, but also has a good long shot. If we leave him alone, he will soon be threatening his own goal with long-range shots. But once Cannavaro left, only Brasi was left behind, and he had to defend two people! Lin Feng Lin Feng passed the ball to Martins on the wing immediately. The latter just broke into the penalty area and raised his leg to shoot. Buffon did not dare to delay and immediately moved towards the near post. But Martins' shot was just a feint. After seeing Buffon move, he quickly knocked the ball to the middle. Adriano's explosive power was fully revealed at this moment. He kicked the grass hard, shook off Brasi who was pulling him, rushed into the penalty area and shot directly without stopping the ball.
Adriano thought the ball was a sure thing, but he underestimated Buffon's speed. When Martins passed the ball, Buffon quickly moved a few steps towards the middle and fell to the ground to block Adriano's shot. Seeing Buffon save the ball, Juventus fans in the stands went crazy: Avatar! Incredible save! This is the world's number one goalkeeper! When Adriano saw that his shot was blocked by the opponent, he held his head in disbelief and knelt down in the Juventus penalty area. Can you save this ball? Ade felt that his young mind had suffered a great shock. Lin Feng, who witnessed all this up close, also had his first intuitive understanding of Buffon's strength. Superb predictive ability, excellent reaction speed, unique positioning ability, top explosive power, rich and solid saving skills, and highly focused attention. There are many goalkeepers who possess these attributes, but it is rare to find one who possesses all the familiar attributes at the same time! These things combined together created this unique super goalkeeper in football - Gianluigi Buffon! No wonder Juventus was willing to spend 5400 million euros to sign him, because he is indeed worth the price! Anyone who has seen him play football will probably be amazed by his performance. It is a huge challenge for any team to get past such a top goalkeeper and get the ball into Juventus' goal! (End of this chapter)
