Chapter 336 - 102: King of Long Shots! Saint Simon!
In the short five minutes that followed, Becher’s launched three breakthroughs, showcasing his threat.
Even the commentator couldn’t help but praise this player’s dribbling skills.
"Unfortunately, he cannot create more obvious threats like Aguirre." The commentator added.
This kind of remark was absolutely unacceptable to Becher’s.
In a reverse situation, Aguirre would not perform better than Becher’s.
Bam!
Becher’s received a pass from Lu again, turned, and directly bypassed the defender.
Then he feigned an inside cut.
A bus (defensive strategy) always guards against an inside cut, not much against bottom line play.
Moreover, Sogel was completely suppressed by the central defenders of Rome in this match, losing more than winning in aerial duels, posing little threat.
Thus, Becher’s easily gained a bottom line opportunity, but during the run along the line, he suddenly cut inside, using his positioning to block the return path of the opponent’s left-back, effectively creating space.
He slanted to the left on the left flank and charged into the penalty area but was close to the goal line, without a shooting angle.
Bam!
Becher’s delivered a powerful cross in front of the goal.
The ball was fast.
The central defender of Rome wanted to stretch his leg to intercept but was a step too slow.
Ameluci judged accurately and determined that the ball posed no threat to the goal, so he didn’t risk going out to disrupt it.
The ball was so fast, and it was a cross, if he mishandled it, that would indeed be undesirable.
In almost an instant, Ameluci’s eyes moved quicker than the football, directly fixating on Bai Zhami on the left wing.
Bai Zhami cut inside at high speed without the ball, directly shedding Rome’s right-back.
If he could receive this ball, theoretically there would still be a shooting angle.
About fifteen degrees or so.
Comparable to the angle of the goal Lu scored against Allez in the league, also the zero-angle classic of Sun Jihai.
Bam!
Bai Zhami arrived in time, raised his left foot without any hesitation, and knocked the ball back to the center.
Inverted triangle pass!
Brother Lu said, don’t play too simply.
Don’t attempt a forced shot with little threat, it’s just wasting opportunities.
If Ameluci has noticed you, then your shot is highly likely to be saved by him.
Top Serie A goalkeepers have this ability, we have to make him unable to keep up!
Bai Zhami’s "Football Language Land" is full of Lu’s language.
This is a highly threatening inverted triangle pass!
Lu made a point to rush into the penalty area, supporting himself against the person beside him, his right foot raised high!
Ameluci’s sight had tracked many times, and it was barely keeping up with the football.
But fortunately, he saw Lu’s foot-raising motion.
Lu!
Is this our duel!
This time!
I must win!
Ameluci was very determined!
Decisively moved ahead, diving for the save!
He was very sure where Lu would kick the football because, although the shooting angle in front of Lu was relatively large, it happened to be entirely within Ameluci’s saving range.
This time, Ameluci moved first and was certain that even if the football shattered his palm, it wouldn’t enter the goal net!
The Italian Cup trophy is ours for Rome!
That’s what I, Ameluci, say!
Huh?
The next second, Ameluci’s pupils shrank infinitely, as if witnessing something terrifying.
"No!"
Ameluci shouted loudly: "Stop him!"
The "him" Ameluci referred to was not Lu.
In the entire stadium, perhaps only three people knew who "he" was.
One was Lu.
One was "him" himself.
And the other was Balera, who was chasing after "him" all along!
You could see Lu making a violent shooting motion, but his right foot kicked nothing but air.
And the football rolled past Lu without any change in path.
Lu did not touch the football!
He let the ball go through!
And it wasn’t just an ordinary dummy!
It was a dummy performed with a shooting gesture!
Having scored twice, when Lu raised his foot, any defender in Rome’s defense would instinctively react.
That’s the deterrence of a strong player!
That’s the aura brought by scoring!
At this moment, Lu shone brilliantly, so much that it blinded Ameluci’s determined eyes.
Morici swung back a hand to push away Balera and successfully rushed to Lu’s diagonal rear, delivering a kick to the rolling football.
Bam!
The football flew into the right side of the net.
While Ameluci was still heading to the left side of the goal.
San Remo tenaciously equalized!
The score on the field, three to three!
"GOAL! Invincible! I knew you definitely wouldn’t touch it!" Morici went crazy after the goal, directly rushing towards Lu, crashing into him with his chest.
Lu jumped high as well, colliding with Morici in mid-air!
Of course, he had to hold back a bit, or Morici would fly away.
"If you hadn’t scored this goal, I would laugh at you for a lifetime! Congratulations, you’ve temporarily escaped my ridicule!" Lu patted Morici on the head.
After that, teammates swarmed over, surrounding them.
"Bai Zhami, your assist was amazing! Although my dummy was even more brilliant!" Lu was also celebrating with Bai Zhami.
"Becher’s, you orchestrated another attack! With your performance, you let the Romans know that their biggest regret this season is not bringing you home during the winter window!" Morici didn’t forget to credit Becher’s either.
In terms of statistics, Becher’s was not outstanding in this match, significantly behind Aguirre’s one goal and one assist.
