Liverpool and Real Madrid had just started the first leg of the Champions League knockout round 18 final with a blood-pumping passion!
After Ronaldo's threatening shot, it was not long before the showdown between Qin Xiong and Casillas!
And this time, the scene was so exciting that all the spectators could not help but exclaim.
When Qin Xiong volleyed with his left foot, Casillas made a save, and as if he had foreseen it, Casillas' right hand happened to be in the trajectory of the football's flight!
Then the football was directly sent flying out of the end line by Casillas with a single palm!
“OMG！ Casillas sent Qin Xiong's shot flying! This … should be luck! "
Obviously, it was not a routine move for a goalkeeper to make a save. It should have been Casillas' subconscious reaction. There was not much time left for him and he could not hesitate. In the instant reaction, he blocked Qin Xiong's shot, which was already a very good result.
Qin Xiong casually curled his lips and smiled after seeing the football fly out of the end line. He glanced at Casillas, who stood up and pulled his gloves. Qin Xiong walked slowly to the corner area.
Qin Xiong looked like he was going to prepare for a corner kick. Real Madrid's penalty area was setting up a corner kick defense.
The Real Madrid players would keep an eye on Qin Xiong, mainly to observe whether he was ready to take a corner kick.
But Qin Xiong walked very slowly, and he walked close to the end line, which made the Real Madrid players particularly relieved.
However, only a few people noticed that Aurelio quickly ran up from outside the sideline to the corner area, then pressed the football on the kickoff point, and then passed the ball short to Qin Xiong, who had just walked to the edge of the penalty area.
This accident caught Real Madrid's players off guard. No one stared at Qin Xiong!
No one!
Because everyone thought Qin Xiong was going to take a corner kick!
And Qin Xiong suddenly gained possession of the ball. Real Madrid's defense in the penalty area had not been set up, or Liverpool's attacking players in the corner were not in position.
But Qin Xiong was ready.
At least after he turned around, he could directly shoot at the goal without anyone marking or interfering with him!
At the edge of the penalty area, which was close to the end line, Qin Xiong raised his leg to shoot!
He rubbed the ball up with the inner instep of his right foot and deliberately circled it in an inward-spinning arc!
The football sped towards Real Madrid's goal. The football drew a half-moon arc and fell towards the far corner of Real Madrid's goal!
All the Real Madrid players were stunned!
Including Casillas, who was standing near the doorpost, how could he make it in time if he suddenly retreated?
He kept retreating and tried to reach for the football. As a result, he stumbled and followed the football into the goal!
The Liverpool players seemed to be overjoyed. They stared at Qin Xiong incredulously. The Real Madrid players felt as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water from head to toe!
Qin Xiong stood at the spot where he shot the goal. He held his fists high and his face was filled with an excited smile, as if he was happy to become a world champion.
"Liverpool is the first to break the goal! Qin Xiong breaks the goal from zero angle! It was an extremely exciting, extremely exciting way to break the door!
Qin Xiong sent the ball into Real Madrid's goal with a curveball close to the end line.
The game has only been going on for four minutes. Oh my God, this must be a goal-scoring battle. It must be!
Qin Xiong is facing his former team, Real Madrid for the first time. It only took him four minutes to start bleeding his former team. No wonder the media called him a master-killing maniac! "
Comain did not expect the goal to come so quickly on the sidelines. He did not expect it to be a goal break from almost zero angle. He and Sammy Lee hugged and applauded in the stadium to cheer the players on and let the boys continue to work hard.
Pellegrini had a headache.
This kind of goal loss made people feel aggrieved. It was not like a goal that was bound to be lost, but there was nothing to say about it.
The Real Madrid players were not affected too much. The stronger the team, the less the morale would be affected by the change in the score when there was still enough time in the game.
After the game resumed, Real Madrid immediately organized a new offensive.
Van Der Vaart and Kaka advanced from the midfield. When the two men came to the offensive danger zone, Kaka passed the ball straight to the striker, Benzema, who passed the ball to Ronaldo.
Before Ronaldo crossed the ball into the penalty area, Mascherano immediately rushed to intercept, but Ronaldo was faster and passed the ball to Kaka, who had inserted into the penalty area.
Kaka charged into the penalty area diagonally but could not shoot with his right foot. He barely managed to shoot with his left foot.
After Real Madrid's attack failed, Liverpool did not want to be outdone and continued to attack to give the other side a taste of their own medicine.
Alonso's organization in the midfield ensured that Liverpool's attack could smoothly reach the front field.
When Qin Xiong and Qin Xiong matched up, Qin Xiong did not tangle with Ramos too much one-on-one. He went straight to the middle with the ball.
Las Diarra and Gago's midfield defense was simply too weak!
After Qin Xiong and Gerard crossed each other, he came to the right side of the front field, received Gerard's pass, and then stuffed the ball diagonally behind Albiol in the penalty area.
Torres inserted diagonally into the gap between Pepe and Albiol. Before Albiol could turn around, he blocked his position. Then, he kicked the ball with the outer instep of his right foot. After adjusting, he directly launched a volley shot from a small angle!
The football went straight to the far corner of the goal. Casillas decisively pounced again this time. His fingertips touched the ball, changed the trajectory of the football, and let the football fly to the sideline. After Ramos controlled the football, he looked to the front and immediately instigated a counterattack.
The football came to Van Der Vaart's feet. He quickly dribbled to the front to advance the attack. About 35 yards away from the goal, he turned to the middle, looked at the situation in the penalty area, and sent the ball out with an inside spin.
The football made a big arc and flew to the back of the penalty area.
Ronaldo cut through the air and jumped high in the penalty area. Carragher did not have time to jump before he realized that he could not interfere with Ronaldo's header this time.
"Ronaldo's header attack! Reina pounced on Ronaldo's sure goal! My God, the pace of the two teams' attack and defense is too fast!
Ten seconds ago, we were watching Torres challenge Casillas in Real Madrid's penalty area. Ten seconds later, we saw Reina withstand the test of Ronaldo's shot in front of Liverpool's goal!
The pace of this game is so fast that people can't breathe! "
Ronaldo saw that his header did not go in, and suddenly roared to the sky in annoyance.
Reina wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He tried his luck with the save just now. He did not expect that he gambled right. The direction of the save was really the direction of the opponent's header attack!
