The strongest blade in football

Chapter 146 Hero (6000 words chapter)
Fellaini's single-handed blocking and interception abilities at Everton were quite eye-catching. He discovered Wang Nuo's intentions just now and quickly followed.

Speaking of which, Fellaini actually has a good impression of this Chinese guy who also came from Standard Liege. National team teammate Witsel has chatted with Wang Nuo more than once, saying that they have a good relationship.

Last season, Fellaini also paid attention to the performance of Standard Liege in the Europa League, and witnessed Wang Nuo's outstanding performance in the knockout stage.

He knows Wang Nuo's characteristics, that is, his ability to handle the ball is extremely strong, but his level of passing and coordination is average.

He didn't want Wang Nuo to take the ball comfortably, so he immediately leaned towards Wang Nuo, trying to block his kicking space for direct long-range shots, and then used his physical advantage to force him out of the danger zone.

Under normal circumstances, it is of course no problem to do so, but Wang Nuo has been treated like this by Yaya Toure many times in training, and has accumulated a lot of experience. When he touched the ball for the first time, he began to seek to get rid of it.

The space Wang Nuo is in is very small. If he is on the wing, he only needs to step forward quickly to get rid of Fellaini, but it is obviously not possible here. Not far away are Jagielka and Distin .

Moreover, he can't run to the weak side with the ball, where Balotelli will quickly insert in two or three seconds, as he often does in training, and Wang Nuo doesn't want to overlap with him.

So, naturally, Wang Nuo chose a smarter way of playing.

After receiving the pass from Silva, Wang Nuo went in the opposite direction. The moment Fellaini approached, he stepped on the ball with his foot and pulled it behind him. He quickly turned his body and started to move in the same direction.

This time, not only was it beyond Fellaini's expectations, but the others on both sides of the offense and defense were also fooled.

Fellaini reacted quickly, and immediately turned around. Regardless of his height and long legs, turning around is not slow.

But when he thought that Wang Nuo was going to make a small circle to break through from his other side, Wang Nuo actually passed the ball back to Silva!

At this time, Silva had already run out from between Osman and Phil Neville without the ball. The Spaniard received the football head-on, without stopping at all, and stuffed it out again.

Relying on this short time difference, Wang Nuo had already turned around and ran towards the restricted area.

Everton's central and backcourt players had an idea at the same time——

Look at these two guys, they seem to know each other's intentions. In such a small area, they hit the wall and cooperated so aggressively!
When Wang Nuo received the ball, Fellaini had lost his most advantageous position. He was no longer between Wang Nuo and the goal, and he was half a body behind Wang Nuo.

Wang Nuo couldn't waste such a good opportunity. He quickly took two steps forward, and when he attracted Jagielka to intercept him, he slammed the ball into the big penalty area diagonally behind the opponent.

Then he outflanked the goal from the middle!
Wang Nuo knew very well that when he blocked the ball, there was no one in that position, but in training, this kind of offensive routine was played like this.

He is only responsible for stuffing the ball and then trusting his teammates to get there, to be precise, Balotelli can get there!
While Wang Nuo outflanked, he couldn't help turning his head to look to the left.

Sure enough, Balotelli was desperately chasing Wang Nuo's through ball...

But that speed is worrying, can he get the ball?

oh!I'm sorry, Wang Nuo thought, this kick seems to be a little bit stronger, Balotelli is not Wright Phillips, and he may be out of the bottom line.

Although he thought so in his heart, Wang Nuo didn't stop outflanking, and his running position must be in place on time.

He devotes [-]% of his attention to his running route. He can't run too fast or too slow, and the remaining [-]% of his attention is on Balotelli.

This guy wouldn't choose to dribble from the baseline and then just shoot the goal, would he?

Fortunately, the Italian is very face-saving, he chased very hard, and swept the ball before it went out of the bottom line!

The football passed through the crotch of Baines who was blocked, and went straight to the small penalty area against the turf.

The rumble of countless spring seats resounded through the audience again, but Wang Nuo could no longer hear it.

He was throwing his whole body with all his strength, and his protruding leg was as straight as a ballet dancer's toe. In fact, Wang Nuo wanted to make his leg longer so that he could reach the football flying from the side.

During the running just now, Wang Nuo first circled back to attract Jagielka to follow up the defense, and then rushed to the front again.

Only in this way can we gain more space without being sandwiched between the two central defenders like a sandwich.

Wang Nuo was very glad that Balotelli passed a low ball. If he was fighting for a header, he would not have the confidence to beat Jagielka, even though the latter was only 1.8 meters.

He took the risk of splits, saw the ball, and shot with one foot.

"Oh, that's a brilliant play!"

“Nice Pass!”

The volume of the narrator Ian Darke gradually increased, becoming urgent and enthusiastic.

As soon as the words fell, the football hit Wang Nuo's foot, changed its flight trajectory, and flew into the goal on the side of Howard's body!
"Oh! WANG! It's WANG! Absolutely scintillating goals! (Absolutely scintillating goals!)"

"What a shot! (Good shot)" Ian Darke shouted, "How about that! (Great)"

"Yeah!!"

Manchester City's home fans also erupted into cheers like a tsunami. They endured the whole game and had been looking forward to the team's goal for a long time!

Wang Nuo quickly got up from the turf. He held up one hand and made a "3" gesture!

It means the third goal of the Premier League!

The mischievous broadcaster immediately cut the camera to several boxes facing Wang Nuo, but unfortunately, Emilia Clarke was not there.

Two seconds later, the camera returned to Wang Nuo. By this time, the teammates had rushed over to celebrate one by one.

"Wang Nuo! Wang — Nuo!"

"Wang Nuo! Wang — Nuo!"

"No. 43! Wang Angang, promise!" "Wang Angang, promise!"

The DJ at the home court led all the fans to shout Wang Nuo's name. Every time he heard such a voice, Wang Nuo would tremble with excitement, and his whole body was covered with goose bumps.

The air was filled with the smell of men's sweat. Wang Nuo, Silva, Balotelli and Yaya Toure embraced one by one.

Balotelli usually doesn't like to celebrate when he scores a goal, but he was so happy when Wang Nuo scored a goal, and even slapped Wang Nuo's ass hard.

"How's my pass!" He was smug.

"It's just amazing!" Wang Nuo laughed, deliberately teasing him, "I'm two ahead now!"

The celebration didn't last long, the Manchester City players separated quickly, and everyone quickly returned to the center of the court. There were still more than ten minutes in the game, and everyone saw the hope of equalizing.

With Wang Nuo's goal, the atmosphere at home instantly exploded, and the audience spared no effort in singing and cheering, which is rare in Manchester City Stadium!
In the face of tremendous pressure, Everton stopped attacking at all, and completely shrank in the half court, while Manchester City pressed from a high position, held down the opponent and beat them hard.

Mancini made his final substitution in the 80th minute, replacing Wright Phillips with Adam Johnson, desperate to score another goal.

Moyes, who had been on the verge of winning, became nervous again. He jumped up and down the touchline, trying to send a message and exert influence on the process of the game.

He withdrew Osman, who had suffered a severe physical loss, and replaced him with Villarettinov to guard against death.

Infected by the warm atmosphere at home, Wang Nuo was full of adrenaline.

More than a month ago, he helped the team beat the city's rival Manchester United at home and won the fantastic derby, and this time, he also wants to help the team stay at the top of the league before Christmas.

For this reason, he almost tried his best. He huddled together with defensive players like Transformers, rushed to grab the ball from Distin, who was one size bigger than himself, and scrambled and moved tirelessly.

As the center forward of this game, he doesn't want to be invisible. Even if he has already scored a goal, it is not time to rest. Only winning the game can satisfy Wang Nuo.

In the 84th minute, Kolarov made a cross, and David Silva came to Wang Nuo again!
This time Wang Nuo's position is even better than the time he scored the goal.

Wang Nuo first retreated to the onside position. He turned sideways and aimed at Hibbert at the back of Everton's entire defense line. When Silva picked up a pass, he rushed out like a wild horse in an instant. .

The ball went over everyone's heads and was unloaded by Wang Nuo with his chest. Wang Nuo saw the Everton defenders raise their arms nervously.

Oh, the ball is not offside!Wang Nuo is full of confidence.

He heard a sharp whistle sounding in the distance, but it was not so real under the loud noise of the fans, so Wang Nuo ignored it and didn't stop to shoot.

"Oh!"

A perfect kick, after Wang Nuo kicked the ball, he felt that the ball had something to do with it. Sure enough, the football drew a beautiful arc and hung straight to the upper left corner of the goal!

The ball went in!Hahahaha....Huh?
Wang Nuo waved his fists to celebrate, but he saw the bald-headed Howard pointing at himself excitedly and complaining in the distance, while other defenders also stretched out their hands and waved in the air, looking very angry.

"Hey! What are you doing? Who told you to shoot!" Distin even rushed towards Wang Nuo.

Wang Nuo knew what was going on when he heard him shouting like that!
Sure enough, the referee Probert ran over, and at the end of the field of vision, the linesman also raised the flag.

Probert came to Wang Nuo's side and asked, "Didn't you hear me whistle?"

"No!" Wang Nuo was stunned for a moment, and then became angry. He aimed at Hibbert to run, "It's a good shot, why did you blow the whistle? Do you think it's offside?"

"The fact is that it's offside." The referee Probert's expression was not good. Maybe he felt that Wang Nuo was acting, so he started to fumble in his pocket.

Wang Nuo was a little furious all of a sudden, but he forcibly restrained his urge to curse, and tried to make his tone a little gentler.

"Mr. Referee, that is indeed not offside, Hibbert is in front of me."

But Probert didn't talk nonsense with Wang Nuo at all, and directly raised a yellow card above his head!
Wang Nuo seemed to have been slapped with a sap. This was a complete misjudgment. His goal was disallowed and he got a yellow card for no reason!
There were deafening boos in the stadium, Wang Nuo's teammates also ran to support immediately, Barry, Balotelli and Adam Johnson all ran to talk to the referee.

"Wang Nuo was not offside, or at least, this yellow card should not have been given to him." Barry told the referee.

"Blind! Blind! You blind idiot!" Balotelli also yelled loudly. He used Italian and thought the referee couldn't understand.

As a result, without hesitation, Probert turned around and showed Balotelli another yellow card, and said to Balotelli in Italian, "Shut up, kid."

This unnecessary offside and two yellow cards hit Manchester City's momentum at once. Everton, who was almost crushed a few minutes ago, gained a rare respite and regained some fighting spirit.

Wang Nuo may be the most angry one on the field. He is not a horny guy, but he can't help but feel bad about being conceded a very beautiful goal.

Wang Nuo has encountered misjudgments before, and he also understands that the work of referees is much more difficult than imagined. They run on the court and have to judge what happened more than ten meters away in an instant. It is understandable to make mistakes.

However, he just couldn't accept that this kind of unlucky thing happened to him, and it happened in a game that everyone valued so much.

Three minutes later, Probert just passed by Wang Nuo, and said to Wang Nuo, "It must be an offside, you can't say it's not, and the yellow card is no problem."

Oh my god, it's so annoying!

Wang Nuo ignored him. He found that referees in England were different from those in the Belgian league. They were more talkative. Sometimes they were annoying like they are now.

The game was about to enter the stoppage time period, and he didn't have the time to discuss with Probert about the penalty just now. Even if it was a breakthrough, could the goal come back, and could the yellow card be eliminated?
Therefore, he simply regarded Probert as air.

Another attack, Adam Johnson stuffed the ball after a breakthrough, and Wang Nuo received a pass outside the penalty area on the right.

He glanced at the penalty area, where Balotelli and Yaya Toure, who had advanced forward, were there.

So after he smashed the ball away, he used his left foot to spin the ball to the far corner of the goal.

The level of Wang Nuo's pass is not very good, and the quality of this kick is also very average, but it still caused some chaos in the Everton penalty area.

The reason was that Balotelli tried to shoot with a barb, but he accidentally kicked it, and the ball bounced off Jagielka's knee and bounced on Fellaini's back.

Distin tried to clear the siege, and the kicked ball hit the head of Balotelli, who had just stood up.

Poor Balotelli fell to the ground again, and the football flew straight into the penalty area.

The restricted area was huddled together, and Wang Nuo was standing outside the restricted area. He knew that he would not be able to grab the ball even if he went there, so he might as well try his luck outside.

Sometimes, people's luck is very strange.

Wang Nuo just stood there and did nothing, but the ball passed him by.

Everton made a hasty clearance and did not kick with strength. Wang Nuo just stretched his leg and intercepted the ball.

All eyes were once again on Wang Nuo.

At this time, there are densely packed people in front of him. Wang Nuo should have passed the ball to the outside to let his own midfielder settle down and prevent the opponent from rushing forward.

But he still held his breath in his heart!
Wang Nuo saw a gap in the crowd, and the primitive desire hidden in his heart was immediately aroused.

Rush over!
In fact, Wang Nuo had already acted when this idea came into being.

He's going to dribble the ball down the baseline and make an inverted triangle cross, just like Balotelli did just now.

The number of people who beat Juventus in the last game gave him incomparable confidence.

But for some reason, the ball under his feet was so disobedient, the first kick was too big!

Heck!

Wang Nuo made a mistake in his busy schedule and rushed out following the ball. At this moment, a tall figure was also approaching him.

Wang Nuo didn't know who it was, but felt a strong force coming from his side, and at the same time, he also touched the football.

Also just come across.

Because he had completely lost his balance, fell and flew out lying on his side, and even slid two meters on his back on the cold and wet turf.

While gliding, Wang Nuo saw the person who knocked him into the air——

Fellaini also stumbled and fell towards this side, his huge body was obviously out of control in the impact just now!

oh no!
Wang Nuo raised his arms subconsciously to prevent himself from being hurt again.

And Fellaini also turned his body protectively, trying not to fall so embarrassingly.

It's a pity that they both acted at the same time, and the result was less beautiful.

Fellaini's mouth hit Wang Nuo's elbow heavily, and Wang Nuo even heard a creepy click.

"Beep-"

The referee Probert blew his whistle, stopped the game, and rushed over.

This time, the noise and boos from above the stadium were twice as loud as when Wang Nuo was judged offside!
Wang Nuo was still in a dazed state, because he turned his head and saw that Fellaini's mouth was bleeding from his elbow!
God, it's over!

The arm-bending action just now must have been deemed a malicious foul!
But what is amazing is that Wang Nuo, who was lying on the ground on his back, saw a tinge of joy on the expressions of his teammates. What are they happy about?
Immediately afterwards, Wang Nuo heard the shouts and boos of "penalty kick" and "penalty kick" in the auditorium.

penalty?

Wang Nuo sat up, looked down, and saw that he was lying on the right side of the restricted area line.

Only then did he remember that it was Fellaini who bumped into him just now, and he finally touched the football with his toe!

In view of the fact that I slid a short distance just now, then...

Wang Nuo's heart was pounding, and he was knocked into the penalty area by Fellaini!Maybe it was really a penalty?
Probert stood in the center of the storm on the court. He was motionless like a stone statue. After two or three seconds, no penalty was made. Wang Nuo knew that he was listening to the voice in the headset.

Wang Nuo even heard Probert ask the headset, "Are you sure?"

Another two seconds later, Probert pushed away the players from both sides and pointed to a penalty!

Really a penalty!

The audience cheered, and the sound almost stunned people.

Just when Wang Nuo was so happy and was about to laugh out loud, Probert took out a red card and a yellow card from his pocket.

When Wang Nuo saw that there were two cards, his face quickly collapsed. He realized that the penalty was not one-way.

Sure enough, Probert showed a red card to Fellaini, who was sitting up covering his mouth. He bumped into someone in the penalty area, and the red dot package was no problem.

Then, Probert gave Wang Nuo another yellow card, two yellow cards turned into one red!
Wang Nuo's extra bright elbow action hurt Fellaini and was judged to be an additional retaliatory action.

The tough guy Fellaini and the tough guy Wang Nuo were both sent off!

"Are you all right? Need a stretcher?" Probert asked Fellaini, leaning over.

Fluffy shook his head, frowning tightly, opened his mouth, and spit out a bloody tooth with a pop.

This made Wang Nuo, who wanted to argue with the referee, instantly stunned.

This has knocked out the human teeth, what are you talking about, Wang Nuo glanced at Fellaini depressed, and found that the other party's expression was also very depressed.

The two former Standard Liege players actually had no intention of fouling, but the actual penalty result cannot be changed.

Wang Nuo helped Fellaini stand up, "Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Fellaini couldn't speak, so he waved his hand in pain and pointed to the sideline, meaning, what else to say, let's end.

Then, a strange scene appeared on the court——

No. 43, who was wearing a light blue jersey, helped No. 25, who was wearing a pink jersey, walk out of the field slowly, while the team doctor was hanging behind.

Along the way, the applause from the auditorium was exceptionally warm and prolonged.

Wang Nuo knew that it was the affirmation given by the fans for his contribution to this game.

He was in a mixed mood, both happy and bitter, scoring goals, making points, and red cards. In the past 25 minutes, he was really full of tricks.

You don't need to think about it, and you have successfully attracted a wave of media attention after the game.

Mancini was overjoyed. He took the initiative to walk towards Wang Nuo, and rubbed Wang Nuo's head again and again, "Great job! You are the star of this game! Go rest first!"

Hearing the boss's praise, Wang Nuo's mood suddenly improved.

He didn't want to go back to the locker room, but he had nowhere to go, so he just stood in the tunnel and stared at Balotelli taking the penalty kick.

Balotelli has always boasted to Wang Nuo that his penalty kick level is superb. Wang Nuo wants to see if this guy can withstand the pressure in this key penalty that determines the team's championship before Christmas.

He was so far away that he had to watch the big screen on the field.

The camera closes up Balotelli's expressionless face, and then the camera gradually zooms out. Balotelli sets up the penalty and backs away.

The fans fell silent immediately.

Balotelli approached slowly, but the rhythm suddenly changed before he kicked out, and the movement was a beat slower. Howard didn't expect it at all, and he had already rushed to the right.

Balotelli easily kicked the ball to the opposite side.

The ball is in!
In stoppage time for Manchester City, Balotelli scored a penalty kick made by Wang Nuo!

The score was rewritten to 2 to 2!

After scoring the goal, Balotelli did not make any celebrations, and remained expressionless. His eyes searched the sidelines, and finally saw Wang Nuo standing in the player tunnel from a distance.

Before Balotelli could react, the teammates jumped onto Balotelli one by one from behind, and Balotelli was surrounded in an instant.

After that, Wang Nuo stared at the time on the big screen on the court, watching the numbers scroll until the referee blew the whistle to end the game!
Then, Wang Nuo heard various voices from the fans from the stands next to the player tunnel.

"Wang, we are still number one! We are the Christmas champions!"

"You are the hero of this game!"

"Take a good week off! Merry Christmas!"
