Dear Gua
Chapter 195 European Tour Treasure Chest
"So wonderful!"
"An elegant left foot, interpreting romance and stunning the midsummer of France!"
"A work of art!"
"A turn and a pass, strolling leisurely, fully displaying the demeanor of a master."
"18-year-old Li Kang contributed one assist and one goal, creating two goals single-handedly, becoming the focus of all of Europe."
"Diego Costa did not disappoint that intoxicating arc; he used a header to break through the Italian's reinforced concrete defense."
"The Spanish team has expanded its lead!"
He Wei was extremely excited.
Duan Xuan finally managed to interject at the last moment.
...
Ctv5 live broadcast room,
The big screen replayed the entire goal process.
Everyone was stunned.
Strictly speaking, all the viewers around the world watching this game... were stunned.
Even people who are not so interested in football could not help but applaud when they saw this scene.
-【Li Mingdeng is awesome! 666!】
-【My fiancé from a foreign country is so handsome.】
-【Poor Juventus defense, feel sorry for Buffon.】
-【We are witnessing the birth of a new generation of midfield legends; he interprets what is gorgeous and elegant on the green field.】
-【So terrifying, I thought this game could go to extra time and a penalty shootout, but I didn't expect Li Mingdeng to collapse Italy's defense twice!】
-【The news is lying, who said Li Kang is a midfielder with strong aggression? He is clearly a watershed classical attacking midfielder.】
-【That's right, although I only started watching football recently, but so many games in the European Cup... until now, I haven't seen Li Kang have much close contact with others. I heard that he is very likely to go to the Premier League next season, what if he can't adapt to the physical confrontation there?】
-【How is the situation in the England game? I am optimistic that they will slaughter Iceland!】
-【Spain's set-piece is awesome, Cazorla must have deliberately used a low pass to find the front point...】
....
Diego Costa excitedly patted his forehead, roared at the Italian stand a few times, then suddenly turned around, trying to find Li Kang's figure.
But he found that the latter had run to the corner flag area and pulled up Cazorla, who had slipped and fallen to the ground.
The Arsenal midfielder looked embarrassed and whispered, "Li, sorry, the grass is too slippery, I almost..."
Li Kang smiled and shook his head, signaling Cazorla not to continue, and then gave a thumbs up.
Nearby media reporters raised their spare cameras to capture the scene.
All the teammates rushed forward like crazy.
Morata seemed to remember something, and quickly adjusted his pace, blocking Isco's position.
"Li, how did you do it!"
"Great!"
"Li..."
The Stade de France was gradually overwhelmed by the vast sound waves.
"Lee!!!"
"Lee!!!"
"Lee!!!"
....
Not far from the celebration site, in the Italian penalty area.
Buffon squatted on the ground, his eyes blank.
Chiellini and Barzagli stepped forward, preparing to say something.
The purple gloves raised again, stopping the two from comforting him.
"Cheer up, we are role models for the little guys."
The Apennine Peninsula, the stars are dim.
The Italians have tasted the highest glory of modern football; now it is just an inevitable setback and bump on the road forward.
The veteran still firmly believes... that before long, the new generation of players will return to the top of Europe.
....
Italian Broadcasting Corporation.
Maldini's expression was bitter.
As a legendary defender of historical proportions, he knew how terrifying this Spanish team was in attack.
Baggio, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke: "Li's left foot is full of imagination and creativity; he can give a twilight team a new lease of life. I seem to see the shadows of several people: Rui Costa, Zidane, including myself..."
"The enemy we are facing at this time is likely to be the champion of this European Cup."
Italian fans in front of the TV had not yet come back to their senses.
Looking at the entire goal process being replayed from various angles on the screen.
Spain's number 6 made the Apennine Peninsula feel a trace of despair.
...
On the sidelines.
Mignano danced with excitement, trying to express his excitement: "Boss, Li is simply a gift from God to us, the pride of the Iberian Peninsula! Without him, we would not be able to break through the Italian goal at all!"
Del Bosque clapped gently, and couldn't help but take a higher look at the little assistant coach when he heard this sentence.
"You're right, Li is too incredible."
"Being able to be his coach is the most honorable thing in my life."
On the other side.
Conte recovered from the shock.
He scratched his hair, shook his head vigorously, and tried to abandon all the negative emotions that interfered with the decision-making.
Calm.
Be calm.
There are still eighteen minutes left in the regular game time.
You can't easily admit defeat, you can't give up, there is still a chance!
He picked up a pen and paper, quickly sketching out arrows and dots... a smile gradually appeared on his face.
People can stimulate their potential and exert extraordinary performance in extremely harsh adversity.
Conte is also like this.
He is often criticized by the media: his on-the-spot adaptability is too slow.
But in actual games, he can often make magical adjustments and changes in the final time period.
Not long after.
He beckoned Insigne and Giaccherini over.
"Listen, our main offensive direction next... is to find Florenzi's side, he can..."
"Boss, Florenzi was substituted off by you."
....
The game restarts in the center circle.
Pellè kicks the ball horizontally to Zaza.
As a penalty kick specialist, Zaza, who has been away from the battlefield for a long time, has not fully entered the game state.
Pa.
He was about to pass the ball back to De Rossi behind him when a fierce face blocked his vision.
His feet were empty.
The ball is gone.
"Too casual!"
"It shouldn't be!"
"Diego Costa fiercely snatched Zaza's ball, no foul!"
"In this way, the game has entered the rhythm of the Spanish team again."
Italian fans angrily burst into boos.
Zaza quickly got up, without even a chance to counter-grab.
It seems that from the moment he missed the penalty kick, the direction of the game was already destined.
...
Diego Costa passed the ball back to the backcourt as soon as possible.
Li Kang noticed that Del Bosque was signaling from the sidelines.
He steadily stopped the ball and gently made a downward pressing gesture.
The teammates understood.
The grass after the rain is still moist.
But the Spanish stars gradually mastered the passing strength that fits the field, as well as the water accumulation in their own half.
They began to slowly advance.
"It's time to slow down the pace."
"The Spanish team looks like they are advancing at this time, but also like they are passing the ball back and forth."
"The players cultivated by La Liga youth training are too good at footwork, including Ramos and San José, their ball control is very stable."
"Hey, it's very rare, De Gea also ran out to show off his skills, he rarely has a chance to do so when he returns to Manchester United."
"After all, it's a cup competition, the Spanish coaching staff has to consider the players' physical fitness. If they can advance to the quarter-finals, what awaits them is..."
"It's the German team; in another game being played at the same time, the German chariot is leading Slovakia by a large score!"
....
Time passes quickly.
The Stade de France, which can accommodate 80,000 spectators, is divided into hell and heaven.
One side sings in unison, their faces full of happy smiles.
One side is silent, their eyes slightly red.
The Italian's journey in this European Cup has entered the countdown.
On the green field.
The grassroots players did not admit defeat; they tried to cut off the Spanish team's passing connections.
Especially Zaza.
Players with this kind of seemingly clumsy appearance have particularly strong mental attributes and are full of fighting spirit.
Like an angry little bull, he plunged fiercely into the opponent's formation.
It didn't work.
Under Li Kang's connection and organization, Spain gradually eroded the Italian team.
...
In the 95th minute of the game, the last moment of stoppage time.
Saúl saw Li Kang's gesture and suddenly抽 (chōu - whipped/snapped) the ball, long passing it to the front court.
It feels so good not needing to use your brain to play football.
"Italy is pressing too deep!"
"Causing the mid-front field to be disconnected!"
"Dangerous!"
"Beautiful, Spain has broken through again!"
The football swiftly掠 (lüě - flashed) across the center circle.
Isco brought the ball up before De Rossi.
In an instant.
The young genius from Real Madrid left the Roma veteran far behind.
Thirty-meter area.
Chiellini and Barzagli quickly intercepted.
Isco flickered and moved around.
Still can't get past.
Pa!
The football was finally kicked out of bounds by Bonucci, who came to help defend!
Beep! Beep beep~
The referee took the opportunity to blow the whistle to end the game.
...
Spain 2:0 Italy!
Cannons and fireworks go off together!
The hysterical cheers, like a swift flood, swept over the Stade de France.
"For the Italians, the rainy night in Saint-Denis is sad."
"The invincible fleet of Iberia has found a new helmsman; the chosen ones of the Apennines have long been lost."
"Perhaps in the next European Cup, we will no longer be able to see the figures of Buffon, Barzagli, De Rossi, etc. They are all the creators of the glory of Italian football ten years ago. We are fortunate to witness this scene, a shared experience."
"There are always heroes who grow old, and there are always teenagers who rush forward!"
"18-year-old genius midfielder - Li Kang, has opened a new page in the history of the European Cup."
"He directs the team to overcome obstacles all the way with an unpretentious but steadfast temperament!"
"Let us bid farewell to Italy and congratulate Spain!"
Buffon raised his palms apologetically towards the stands where the Italian fans were located.
This is the Apennine goalkeeper's fourth European Cup.
Perhaps there will be no fifth.
Italian bench.
Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper - Sirigu, looks a little frustrated.
He finally realized the bitterness of Toldo, Antonioli, Abbiati, Amelia, Marchetti, De Sanctis, Perin... and other predecessors.
A legendary Buffon left generations of excellent Italian goalkeepers... sitting on the bench.
It took Conte a long time to adjust his emotions, shook hands with Del Bosque with a smile, and turned to walk into the dark passage.
The national team cannot find the answer he wants.
....
A long time later.
The night wind blew the corner flag.
Li Kang and his teammates walked hand in hand towards the stands, thanking the Spanish fans who had traveled far to come.
He has an Italian goalkeeper's jersey covered in mud on his shoulder.
In contrast.
Even the surface of De Gea's shoes is spotless.
"Why are you looking at me with this kind of eyes? Is it because the other side can't attack? The national team's defense is better than Manchester United... what? England was eliminated by Iceland?"
....
Li Kang slowly walked off the green field.
The system prompt sounded quietly.
[Ding, congratulations on completing the task: Kill the person of "Italian Football Tradition"! ]
[Task feedback: A few months later, Conte will lead a tactical frenzy across the European continent, and then you will face a real challenge... if you don't team up with him.]
[Congratulations on getting: European Tour Platinum Treasure Chest. ]
Conte can "turn stones into gold" with the civilian Italian mid-front field.
If he were to take charge of a Premier League giant with a complete lineup...
Li Kang didn't think about it.
He is going to return to the national team's residence and then review this game carefully. The opponent's "three-center-back system" has many details that he still cannot understand for a while, such as: Zaza's appearance...
A platinum treasure chest floats in front of him.
The system panel automatically shows the brilliant prize pool content.
