The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 70 No Goal Luck

Osvaldo seems to want to test the new formation on Palmeiras. Palmeiras is not an underdog. I am afraid this will be a fierce battle. It is not suitable to test the new formation. I spoke to Farah on the phone and after this game he will go back to Brazil for contract negotiations. This time I am going to introduce Yang Rui and Yang Fan to him. ——Licardo's private diary

At the Morombi Stadium, the tricolor flag was no longer flying, and the Sao Paulo fans hugged their heads one by one, with disbelief and frustration in their eyes.

"Leonardo header! Goal! The tall defender of Palmeiras took a corner kick to open the scoring for Palmeiras! It's the 7th minute of the game and Palmeiras has already played 1-0 away Leading, they got off to a good start!"

"Pedrio's cross, Wagner Lowe scored with a header! goal! Palmeiras scored twice in three minutes. It was a fantastic start! Wagner Lowe made a contribution to Palmeiras Yes! The 18-year-old is making his third appearance for the first team and scoring in such an important game! He took off his jersey to celebrate! Palmeiras looks unstoppable!"

Ricardo withdrew his gaze from Wagner Lowe, and walked toward his own half depressedly. He has a little impression of this player. It seems that he has been in Europe for many years, and he has also gone to the Chinese Super League to seek gold, but he has not been well-known and he is not a very outstanding player. I can remember this player because of his name, LOVE, which is quite recognizable.

Only 10 minutes into the game, Sao Paulo fell behind by two goals. How to play the rest of the game? In these 10 minutes, Ricardo didn't have many chances to touch the ball, let alone play anything.

The new formation and tactics are not so easy to get used to. In terms of these two conceded goals, it was also because of a sudden change of formation. There was no one to mark Leonardo at the corner kick, which resulted in the latter scoring. The second conceded goal was that when the opponent made a cross, the defenders were not in place in time, and Lowe missed it.

Osvaldo's face was also clouded. He really underestimated the difficulties before the game, everything was too idealistic.

But at this time, he has not lost hope in his heart. As long as the team's trident can operate smoothly, it is not impossible to equalize or even overtake the score in the remaining time.

He walked to the sidelines, waved his arms and shouted: "Steady, steady, don't worry! Play according to our training!"

The Sao Paulo players were a little anxious, but Osvaldo's words gradually made them feel at ease and slowed down their offensive rhythm a little.

Ricardo was actively seeking cooperation with Kaka in the middle, and the two were still in good spirits, but after Palmeiras scored two goals, they began to focus on defense, and they couldn't find any good chances to score for a while.

In the 30th minute of the game, Ricardo had his first shot.

He wandered on the left side, waited for Kaka's pass, wiped out Palmeiras' right back Correa, took two steps to the center and then shot a cold arrow. He kicked the ball close to the ground , The football flies to the far corner of the goal quickly, without an arc, and only wins with speed and angle.

But Palmeiras goalkeeper Marcos reacted quickly, and a diving ball hit the bottom line.

Ricardo shrugged regretfully.

Five minutes later, Ricardo made a comeback. This time Rico broke through from the right and made a cross from the bottom, giving a half-high ball. Kos also had nothing to do with the ball. Although he made a jumping action, it was too late to save it.

The Sao Paulo fans were on their feet, ready to celebrate.

But to their dismay, the football bounced off the crossbar and the Palmeiras defender controlled the spot to clear the ball.

Ricardo shook his head, forget it, it seems that there is no chance of scoring in this game, and he no longer insists, and it is okay to give assists to his teammates, as long as he can win, he doesn't care who scores the goal.

At the end of the first half, Palmeiras seemed a little slack.

Ricardo keenly seized the opportunity. He swayed away from Correa after stepping on the bicycle continuously on the left. After breaking through near the bottom line, he made a cross with his left foot and gave an early point. Fabiano leaped high from the crowd with a header, and Kaka, who was in ambush, hit the ball into the empty goal.

"Kaka shot, goal!" The commentator shouted excitedly, "In the most difficult time for Sao Paulo, Kaka stepped forward! He never disappointed the fans of Sao Paulo! For Sao Paulo, this goal is very important. If Entering the second half with a two-goal gap, they were almost sentenced to death for this game. But they could still see a glimmer of light before the half-time break! At the same time, this goal was against Palmeiras. The morale blow is also huge!"

"Let's take a look at the slow motion. Ricardo got rid of the sidewalk, stepped on his bicycle briskly, and successfully broke through. Correa reacted half a beat slower and misjudged the direction of Ricardo's breakthrough. At this time Fabiano has already Before the start, Riccardo paid attention to observation in his busy schedule, and noticed Fabiano's running position. The cross was quite comfortable. Fabiano didn't take credit for his own shot, but slid behind the header. For Kaka, who outflanked at the back point, the whole scoring process was smooth and smooth! Sao Paulo has found its own rhythm!"

"Riccardo is an interesting player. We noticed that he seldom dribbles in the game, and most of the time he takes the ball with one kick. But when he starts dribbling, he can often form effective breakthroughs and cause Goals. His dribbles per game are not many. In the 11 games he has played so far, he averaged only 2.5 dribbles per game, but almost every time he scored a goal. For comparison, Kaka The average number of dribbles per game is 6.4. It shows that Ricardo is a very clear-headed player, knows how to judge the situation on the court, and hardly does any useless work. In the current national championship, there may be players with better skills than him, but there are more players than him. He has a higher IQ, not many."

Sao Paulo fans finally came alive again, cheering for the home team emotionally. Ambrosio, who did not know when the photo shoot ended, also hid among the Sao Paulo fans, singing and dancing together. She thought she was well hidden by her dark glasses, but was picked up by a camera, and the narrator quickly recognized her. "It's Alessandro Ambrosio, I've never heard of her as a Sao Paulo fan before, but she showed up on the sidelines. There were rumors that she and Ricardo had a special relationship, and now it seems that the rumors It's not without reason."

For the rest of the first half, neither side achieved much and the game was dull. Palmeiras didn't want to concede another goal, and almost all of them shrank back to the penalty area, leaving Sao Paulo with little chance to kick. The narrator had to blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

"The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half. The score is temporarily 1:2. Sao Paulo at home is behind. Players from both sides will return to the locker room and have a rest of 15 minutes to fight again. Sao Paulo at home must not be reconciled. After losing one game, adjustments are bound to be made in the second half. I hope there will be more exciting scenes in the second half."
