Modric quickly passed the football to Albertini, who passed it diagonally and accurately found Ribéry.
Seeing Ribéry take the ball, Belletti wanted to come up and intercept. But Ribéry, who was faster, poked the football between his legs, then bypassed Belletti, accelerated to chase the ball, and succeeded in retrieving the football just as it was about to go out of bounds!
"Counterattack! Counterattack! "Li Ang waved his arms and continued to shout off the field.
It was an excellent opportunity to counterattack.
The Barcelona people thought that the penalty kick would be near, so they were a little relaxed. No one thought that the penalty kick would not go in. While they were stunned, Sporting de Gijón had already pressed heavily.
Ribéry dribbled the ball at high speed on the flank. He saw Harvey desperately coming over and it looked like he was going to get close to him and stop him from dribbling the ball. Ribéry did not even suspect that the other side would decisively commit a tactical foul to stop the attack. He did not give Harvey the chance. When Harvey was about to get close to Ribéry, Ribéry suddenly kicked the football out and kicked it forward. Then he accelerated again to chase the ball and caught up with the football. In this way, he easily shook off Harvey with his speed!
*****
"Speed! Ribéry's speed! The game has been going on for more than eighty minutes and he still has the stamina to run! "González shouted.
Ribéry continued to break through along the left flank, which made Barcelona feel like they were facing a formidable enemy. All their defensive attention was attracted by Ribéry. Barcelona's entire defensive line moved over to this side to prevent him from cutting inside. Everyone knew that the Frenchman's shot after he cut inside was still more threatening.
Puyol rushed out of the penalty area and blocked in front of Ribéry. He filled in the position of Belletti, who was broken through by Ribéry, while Oleg filled in the middle.
This was the dilemma Barcelona faced in the midfield after Márquez was replaced. They had no one in the midfield who could form an effective interception. Sporting de Gijón's counterattack could easily penetrate the midfield!
However, Barcelona's defense was still relatively tight when they approached the penalty area.
"Barcelona's defense is pretty good," Dagestino said.
Ribéry glanced at the situation in front of him and found that it was not so easy to break through by himself.
So, pass the ball?
He looked ahead, but there was no chance.
*****
At this moment, Modric ran over from the middle lane.
Ribéry did not hesitate and directly pushed the football to the middle.
When Modric was ready to receive the ball, his first thought was to take a long shot. However, it was clear that the Barcelona players were prepared for this. Oleg rushed up and was ready to jump up to block the shot.
Almost as soon as Modric's right foot came into contact with the football, he caught a glimpse of a red figure in front of him preparing to run diagonally from the corner of his eye...
Opportunity!
Modric pushed the football straight out from under his feet.
The football rolled behind Oleg, and almost at the same time, Benzema happened to cut in diagonally to receive the ball!
Oleg raised his hand to signal that Benzema was offside.
Barcelona's goalkeeper, Valdés, and their captain, Puyol, also raised their hands.
But the linesman ignored him. He was running after Benzema.
"Beautiful passing and running coordination, not offside!" the commentator shouted.
*****
After Benzema received the ball, he cut into the penalty area. Van Bronckhorst rushed over to stop him from shooting.
"Shoot!!" Li Ang anxiously roared off the field. He was worried that Benzema was too young and hesitated to waste this opportunity. He could not wait to shoot the shot himself.
Benzema felt the threat from diagonally behind him. Although he did not know who that person was, Benzema knew that this person could come up to block his shot at any time. In front of him, the Barcelona goalkeeper, Valdés, was waiting to block his shot.
At this moment, Benzema was the only one in the penalty area. Whether it was Milito or Di Natale, they had played for more than eighty minutes. There was a problem with their fitness and they had not caught up.
Therefore, for this sixteen-year-old French player, he could only rely on himself now!
Van Bronckhorst could not help it. He fell to the ground from the side to complete the tackle.
Almost at the same time, Benzema glanced at Valdés' position and he decisively raised his leg to shoot.
He managed to shoot the football out before Van Bronckhorst's tackle could arrive!
*****
It was an inside kick. The football flew, bypassed Valdés' hand, and then flew straight to the back corner of the goal.
At this moment. Whether it was the Sporting de Gijón fans or the Barcelona fans, whether it was the people sitting at Camp Nou or the people watching the game in front of the television, everyone widened their eyes and looked at the arc!
Whether this goal could be scored or not would determine the result of this game. If it did not score, the game would still be Barcelona's one to two. They still had hope of equalizing the score. If it scored, the score would become Sporting de Gijón's three to one lead. It was almost equivalent to killing the suspense of the game!
After Benzema finished the shot, Van Bronckhorst's tackle arrived and directly knocked Benzema to the ground.
Benzema fell to the ground, but his eyes were fixed on the football that he had shot.
The young French player's heart was beating uncontrollably at this moment. He prayed that the ball would go in. He prayed! If this ball went in, it would be the most important goal he had scored in his life so far, and the team would completely lock in the victory!
His eyes were fixed on the football.
Then, he saw the football hit the inside of the goalpost with a bang. It then jumped, bounced over the goal line, and fell into the net.
The ball went in!
*****
“Goooool！”
"Ah, ah, ah, ah — this is unbelievable! The ball went in! The ball really went in! Benzema's goal, this sixteen-year-old French kid came on as a substitute and scored! This is a killer move! He kicked Barcelona to hell with one kick! Barcelona did not score from the penalty kick, Sporting de Gijón followed up with a counterattack! This goal decided everything! " The commentator roared crazily. He was not a Sporting de Gijón fan, but at this moment, he could not help but go crazy. This kind of game, this kind of progress, this kind of goal, was too exciting …
After Li Ang saw the football go in, he jumped up, raised his arms, and rushed out of the technical area. He wildly celebrated the goal. This goal basically completely locked in the victory. He did not believe that in less than ten minutes left, Barcelona could score two more goals in a row!
Behind him, Sporting de Gijón's substitutes and coaches also rushed out of the technical area. They hugged, cheered, and waved the towels in their hands excitedly.
In the field, after Benzema saw the ball go in, he stumbled from the ground and ran to the technical area with his arms raised. He wanted to dedicate this goal to the manager who brought him to this team from France and gave him a chance and trust.
However, just as he ran near the sideline, he was pressed to the ground by a group of excited teammates who rushed over with roars.
At this moment, the entire Camp Nou was filled with the crazy cheers of the Sporting de Gijón people.
*****
Puyol stood on the field with his hands on his hips, looking helplessly at the night sky of Camp Nou.
Valdés knelt in front of the goal, holding his head with his hands on the ground.
Ronaldinho's face was dignified, and there was no smile on his face.
Eto 'o's face was black. Of course, he was black to begin with.
Rijkaard looked up at the sky and sighed …
He did not understand how his powerful Barcelona could not beat the newly promoted team led by the Chinese … At least, he could not figure it out at this moment.
