When the score was behind, Ajax wanted to equalize the score. Although Grigra defended in the backfield, Ajax's attack in the middle could be more aggressive. Of course, if it went too far, it would be suicidal and give the opponent more space to fight back.
This required a wealth of game experience to judge the situation, and Galaszek did a good job in this regard. One had to know that in the Czech Republic national team, he did the same work behind Nedved. The Czech Republic national team could be said to be the team that played the most exciting and radical offensive football among the national teams in European football during this period. The crazy offensive set off the defensive midfielders' awareness of the game's overall situation when switching between offense and defense. They knew when to advance and when to retreat.
With Galasek's help, Qin Xiong moved more freely in the middle and front field. He would not be tackled by the opponent at the first moment. As long as he did not step into the densely defended area of Porto, Qin Xiong could run freely without restrictions.
In the 42nd minute of the game, he came to the left side of the front field. After receiving the Snede's pass, he flicked the ball horizontally and turned around as if he was going to cross the ball to the middle to pass to an area with a wider field of vision.
Costinha was behind him, and Deco moved over diagonally opposite him, guarding the route to the middle in front of the penalty area.
Costinha was ready to tackle Qin Xiong from behind, and Deco was waiting for his teammates to force Qin Xiong to make a change in control of the ball before waiting for the opportunity to intercept.
Just as Qin Xiong was about to be sandwiched, he suddenly made a bicycle move.
His move made Costinha, who was less than a meter behind him, seem to be petrified for an instant. He did not know what to do next.
Because Qin Xiong's legs were on the bicycle and Costinha had a yellow card, he had to ensure that his interception would not become a physical violation, so he hesitated!
Deco also hesitated!
He even widened his eyes in disbelief.
If the vast majority of players on the field made a technical move of pedaling, it was certainly to pass, and 99% of them were facing the opponent's goal.
But Qin Xiong was facing the opposite sideline, and the goal was on the left in front of his body. His pedaling looked ridiculous, like a fool performing a solo performance!
This was the f * * king Champions League final!
What was this kid doing?
Deco himself didn't realize that Qin Xiong didn't play his cards according to common sense. He strangely performed the movement of riding a bicycle, causing Deco's judgment to become hesitant.
Because they were not facing each other one-on-one.
It was a very awkward diagonal facing. When Deke began to make up his mind that no matter how Qin Xiong connected the next pull or dribble, he would use a foul to block Qin Xiong. Qin Xiong finished two consecutive bicycle strokes. His connected technical movements made Deke feel inconceivable.
Return pass!
Heel kick!
Then what's the point of riding a bicycle?
Was it meaningless?
Maybe.
Deke, who had his thoughts continuously impacted, was stunned to discover that Qin Xiong had brushed past him when he regained his senses. He tried to grab Qin Xiong's arm and raised his hand, but he could not grab anything!
Qin Xiong's eyes bloomed with a fierce light when he brushed past him. Perhaps his pedaling was really meaningless, because he did not deceive any of his opponents' body's center of gravity, nor did he pass anyone in the connecting movement.
But what he wanted to deceive was the opponent's thinking!
Under the continuous unconventional thinking impact, the opponent's reaction became slow, and he premeditated to avoid contact with the opponent's body, which could cause him to be entangled with a foul and delay the attack.
The ball that was knocked behind him by his heel actually went to the side, where Maxwell appeared. He kicked the ball, and the Brazilian steadily passed the ball from the space between Costinha and Deke to Qin Xiong's running route.
Mendes did not expect Deke to be broken through so easily. He did not even have physical contact with Qin Xiong!
Even if he bumped into Qin Xiong and failed to block him, it would at least affect Qin Xiong's running speed!
Qin Xiong ran to the left in front of the penalty area. He already had a chance to raise his leg for a long shot, and it looked like he was going to do so. When the football rolled in front of him, he took the opportunity to swing his leg and raise his leg to shoot!
Mendes was eager to save his teammate and directly raised his leg to block!
Qin Xiong's foot landed, but the ball was gently pushed sideways with the instep of his outside foot, and the football rolled from the left side of Mendes' body to behind him.
Mendes' raised leg had just landed when Qin Xiong had already bypassed him from the right side!
The ball passed by!
Qin Xiong, who had a good grasp of the rhythm of running and ball control, regained control of the football and pushed a small step sideways in front of the penalty area. He still faced a three-sided attack. In the direction of the goal, there was Costa and Carvalho. Carvalho stayed close to mark Ibrahimovic. He had already secretly grabbed Ibrahimovic's jersey, which affected Ibrahimovic's explosive power. Costa headed outside the penalty area to narrow the angle of Qin Xiong's long shot.
Behind Qin Xiong, Mendes, who had recovered his body's center of gravity, gritted his teeth and gave chase. In front of Qin Xiong, it was not the full back, Valente, who defended him, but Maniche!
Mourinho had not ordered the whole team to retreat, but Maniche had already taken the initiative to withdraw to reinforce the defensive line. Porto's overall combat ability was evident.
If Deke, who was chasing from behind, was included, Qin Xiong's situation could be said to be surrounded by enemies on all sides.
After all, Maniche was a player who was stronger in offense than defense. In order to intercept Qin Xiong, he directly chose to shovel when he rushed from the front!
Unfortunately, his defensive skills were really not complimentary. He chose to shovel the ball too early.
When he shoveled the ball, Qin Xiong calmly continued to move horizontally in front of the penalty area.
He turned 180 degrees, stepped on the ball, and pulled the ball in one go.
Marseille Spin!
Maniche turned his head in shock to see Qin Xiong gracefully turn around and dribble the ball past him.
Qin Xiong not only rushed out of the encirclement, but behind him, Mendes saw Qin Xiong continue to move forward with the Marseille Spin, and Maniche, who was sliding in front of him, appeared in front of him!
In order to avoid Maniche, he dodged to the right and actually collided with Deke!
The two men staggered and almost fell to the ground after bouncing away!
The fans of Ajax in the stadium had already stopped cheering. Just like the fans of Porto, they were dumbfounded as they watched the player wearing the number 28 shirt tear apart Porto's defensive line like he was invincible!
Qin Xiong showed an elegant demonic nature, which shocked the hearts of all the spectators!
After coming to the right side of the penalty area, Qin Xiong already had space to shoot.
Porto's full back, Valente, gritted his teeth and rushed up. Qin Xiong raised his leg!
The football shot out from under his feet without spinning, like a flash of lightning towards the bottom right corner of Porto's goal!
The veteran goalkeeper, Bya, remained calm from beginning to end. In order to prepare for the Champions League final, he studied the characteristics of Ajax's players' shooting. It took him a week!
He repeatedly studied the shooting habits of several Ajax's attackers.
Of course, Qin Xiong was one of them!
Therefore, he predicted Qin Xiong's last-minute choice after a series of jaw-dropping performances in front of the penalty area!
When he pounced to block the shot, the calm Bya was shocked!
His prediction was correct. That was the direction of the football, but he did not expect Qin Xiong's shot to make the football move so fast!
It was as fast as lightning!
He originally wanted to hold the football in his arms. However, when he felt the football's speed, which exceeded his expectations, he realized that he was unable to make the football hit his chest. His hand was just barely able to reach the football!
In the end, the veteran goalkeeper, Bya, made a world-class save. He blocked the football with a single palm, but he was unable to hold onto the football!
Furthermore, due to the sufficient contact area between his palm and the football, his block caused the football to only bounce a short distance away from the goal after losing most of its power!
Bya, who had yet to get up from his position in front of the goal line, saw a figure appear in front of the football on the trajectory of the deflected football. Then, he swung his leg inconspicuously. Push shot!
Bya almost wanted to roar crazily.
Valente, where are you?!
How can you lose him?!
Carvalho followed Ibrahimovic. Costa headed towards the outside of the penalty area. When Qin Xiong raised his leg, Valente wanted to block Qin Xiong. Therefore, there was a problem in marking.
Ajax's captain, Van Der Vaart, followed up and shot from within the penalty area!
This opportunity could not be more perfect.
Qin Xiong dragged the main defensive force inside and outside the left side of the penalty area. Carvalho was restrained by Ibrahimovic in the middle of the penalty area, while Valente was lured away by Qin Xiong.
Qin Xiong's shot was towards the bottom right corner of the goal. The football that Bya blocked rebounded and almost sent it to Van Der Vaart, who was unmarked and only needed to take a few steps forward!
How could the Dutch golden boy miss such a golden opportunity?
He calmly and steadily shot the ball towards the bottom left corner of the goal. Bya was lying on the ground and Carvalho was too far away to reach. No one could stop the football from rolling into the goal!
Qin Xiong saw the football rolling into the goal from outside the penalty area. He let out a wild roar!
Ajax equalized the score!
The Dutch offensive football, the king's flag did not fall!
