353: Bad luck and great luck
"The ball is in, it's in, it's in, it's in, it's in!" Duan Jianhong of the China National Sports Channel roared excitedly, and the sound shook the sky!
Thunder breaks out from the ground!
No one thought that Crystal Palace would score at this time!
Even like Louison, they didn't expect that Mane would suddenly take a shot.
Everyone and Louison are speculating on how this guy Mane will break through? Where to break through?
Unexpectedly, this little guy suddenly shot out of anger.
Moreover, the ball speed is very fast and the angle is very tricky.
More importantly, Oblak's view in front of the goal was partially blocked by Louison.
Therefore, Oblak's reaction was half a beat too slow.
But he immediately fell to the ground and threw himself out, and his fingertips also touched the football, causing the football to change direction slightly. But it still couldn't stop the football from rolling into Benfica's goal.
Director Zhang Hao was a little shocked!
Can this ball be touched?
Oblak's reaction and sense of goal-saving skills are really amazing!
luck!
Director Zhang Hao felt that Crystal Palace was lucky to score this goal!
However, the Crystal Palace fans at the scene and in front of the TV didn't care about this. They jumped up excitedly, roared excitedly, and celebrated the goal.
"In the 16th minute of this game, the deadlock was finally broken. It was Mane who scored the goal, and it was Crystal Palace who took the lead! This goal was completely a flash of inspiration from Mane. It shook off Louison and allowed the experienced team to Louisson didn't expect it! Mane's talent is really great!" Zhang Hao also said excitedly.
One to zero!
Crystal Palace took the lead.
Campbell and others rushed directly to Tong Yi and hugged Tong Yi tightly, very excited.
They had a head start in the Europa League final.
They have a high chance of winning this game.
At this time, it should be impossible for the Benfica people to continue to hide in their own half, and they are about to attack.
If Benfica attacks, Crystal Palace will have more chances.
We at Crystal Palace will definitely win this game.
Sure enough, Jesus couldn't sit still anymore and immediately came to the sidelines and signaled the Benfica players to stop defending and attack quickly. They must equalize the score as soon as possible, otherwise, the further they delay, the greater the pressure will be on them and the more difficult the game will be.
Therefore, Benfica can't waste a moment.
Here, Benfica immediately attacked.
The football was quickly passed by Amorim to Soleimani in front!
Tong
One discovered that Benfica frequently asked Soleimani to sort out and launch attacks. This was something Tong Yi had not thought of before.
Who would have thought that Soleimani, who only came to Benfica this season and only confirmed his main position after half the season, would become the core of Benfica's offense?
Therefore, Tong Yi immediately prepared to make adjustments and let the Crystal Palace defensive players focus on defending Soleimani!
If Soleimani's connection with other Benfica players is strangled, Benfica will have nothing to worry about.
Suddenly, Zhang Linpeng came out of the diagonal stab, made a sliding tackle, and directly dribbled the ball out of the lane.
Soleimani fell to the ground in pain!
This is not the first time Soleimani has been fouled. The last time he was kicked directly in the abdomen by Paulinho. In fact, he has not fully recovered yet, and he also feels that he was actually seriously injured at that time.
This time he saw Zhang Linpeng's sliding tackle, but unfortunately he couldn't jump at all.
He still has abdominal problems and may have difficulty holding on.
Zhang Linpeng's tackle seemed very big and not threatening.
Soleimani was lying on the ground mainly because of abdominal injuries.
Toot toot!
The referee rushed over directly, signaled Zhang Linpeng to foul, and showed a yellow card.
The Benfica fans gave up and cursed the referee crazily for being a black whistle. This goal should have sent Zhang Linpeng off with a red card, and the Benfica fans were madly cursing Zhang Linpeng, the executioner!
"Oops! Dapeng was a little too excited today. Especially after he just sent an assist, he was a little excited. This ball shouldn't have been shoveled like this! If he couldn't control his emotions, he would probably take it. He got a red card! Dapeng still needs to grow up! I hope this yellow card can make him sober up!" Duan Jianhong was a little worried about Zhang Linpeng.
Tong Yi also saw it, and he immediately called Zhang Linpeng to the sidelines to remind Zhang Linpeng.
"Control your emotions, don't be rash, be steady, do you understand? If you don't understand, come down! I don't want to see you get a red card!" Tong Yi said very seriously.
Wow!
Zhang Linpeng felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head. He trembled all over and calmed down instantly.
He doesn't want to be replaced early in such an important game!
He doesn't want to leave a bad influence on head coach Tong Yi, which will affect his future career!
Zhang Linpeng immediately nodded and said, "Boss, don't worry, I understand!"
Tong Yi looked carefully
Looking at Zhang Linpeng, he saw that this guy was not joking, so he nodded with satisfaction, patted him, and told him to come on stage quickly!
Zhang Linpeng then ran back to the court.
Substitute!
Benfica still made substitutions, but Soleimani couldn't hold on anymore and was replaced due to injury.
He was replaced by Benfica's versatile Andre Almeida!
The newly promoted Portugal international can play in multiple positions such as full-back, defensive midfielder and midfielder. Now he is playing the left midfielder position in place of Soleimani.
If he replaces him, Jesus may let him join the defense more and join forces with Pereira to stop the little guy Mane!
After all, Mane is in very good shape in today's game and must be restricted.
Gaitan took a direct free kick, and the football quickly flew into the Crystal Palace penalty area. ??
Van Dijk in the penalty area immediately jumped up high, held Louison and directly headed the ball to clear the ball.
Nice, nice defense!
The football flew out of the penalty area quickly.
But Amorim, who was at the front of the penalty area, met the ball directly and fired a blast.
The football roared out, flew quickly into the Crystal Palace, and flew straight to the center of the goal.
With a bang, the football hit Van Dijk's arm in the penalty area, changed direction, and flew directly out of the baseline.
All the Benfica fans in the audience went crazy and roared "Penalty kick, penalty kick, penalty kick!"
Toot toot!
The referee also saw it clearly, blew the foul whistle directly, pointed to the penalty spot, and awarded a penalty kick!
"Wow, unexpected, really unexpected! Van Dijk had an unintentional handball in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty kick. Benfica people are really lucky!" Duan Jianhong said.
The Benfica fans at the scene screamed with excitement.
This is Benfica's best opportunity since the start of this game!
Benfica must seize the opportunity!
Seeing this, Tong Yi could only shake his head helplessly. This ball was just bad luck. Do you want to blame Van Dijk? You can't blame it at all, Van Dijk really didn't mean it. The ball was so fast that Van Dijk couldn't react at all.
Penalty kick, Benfica won a penalty kick.
Benfica's striker Lima came to the penalty spot!
Lima only joined Benfica last season, but he is Benfica's absolute main force. He has played 100 times for Benfica in two seasons and scored 51 goals in total. His effectiveness is still very good. He has also scored 21 goals this season and is the backbone of Benfica's forward line.
Lima is very calm and composed
He even kept his eyes fixed on Edward, giving Edward a sense of oppression.
beep!
As soon as the referee's whistle sounded, Lima fired the run-up volley cleanly, without any sloppiness and very confident!
With a bang, the football shot out quickly, flying towards the lower right corner of the goal.
Edward judged the right direction and pounced sideways like lightning. But he still didn't touch the football. The opponent's shooting angle was too tricky!
clang!
The ball hit the inside of the goal post and bounced straight into the Crystal Palace goal.
One to one!
Benfica equalized the score in the 21st minute of the game, and it was Lima who scored.
Seeing this, Tong Yi shook his head slightly, this ball is not lucky!
Tong Yi immediately came to the sidelines and signaled the Crystal Palace players to increase their intensity in the high post to prevent the Benficans from easily passing the half and threatening their goal.
To be honest, this effect is still very good.
The Benfica people were suppressed and couldn't breathe.
The Crystal Palace people also got a good opportunity, but unfortunately the opponent's goalkeeper Oblak was in great shape today. He really resisted with high passes and rejected many threatening attacks from Crystal Palace!
Tong Yi couldn't help but applaud Oblak.
This Oblak really performed so well today, amazing!
Oblak directly kicked the goal kick away, and the football quickly flew into the Crystal Palace half.
Laporte jumped high and pushed the football out, but the ball was cut off by the opponent's Gomez. Gomez did not give the Crystal Palace people a chance to press, and immediately passed the football to Gaitan on the wing.
Facing Robertson who rushed forward crazily, Gaitan suddenly came up with a ball and passed Robertson.
Danger!
Tong Yi smelled the danger and immediately came to the sidelines to remind the Crystal Palace players.
But it's too late!
Gaitan from the wing made a direct pass. This was not a high ball. Instead, he swept the ball across the middle, and the football quickly rolled past the feet of Laporte, who was retreating. It rolled directly in front of Spanish young forward Rodrigo who was one step inside the penalty area. Rodrigo didn't stop the ball and shot directly towards the ball.
The football clung to the turf and shot toward the far lower corner of the goal.
With a bang, Edward, who was lying on the ground, touched the football. The football changed direction slightly, then hit the post at the far end of the goal and bounced back, hitting Edward directly on the back. It bounced again and bounced into the goal. Empty door.
Two to one!
Benfica unexpectedly overtook!
