Chapter 74: Goalkeeper Explosion!

Andy Gray was very excited about the prospect of the goal: "Good goal! A deadly diagonal long pass! This is the opportunity Liverpool has been waiting for! Single! Single!!" Taking away an away goal at home, and a victory, the probability of qualifying will be greatly increased.

As the football flew through the air, there was a loud booing over the Carl Deron Stadium.

Atlético Madrid fans are also aware of the danger looming. The football in the air is like the sword of Damocles hanging above their heads, and it is falling little by little!

While Mane ran forward, he did not forget to look back at the flight path of the football.

Su Han's kick added a lot of spin to the football, and it was not easy to stop the ball.

If someone is close to him, Mane is really not sure how to stop the ball.

But now he has no such troubles, because Fang Yuan is ten meters away from him, and there is no Atletico Madrid player!

This is a real one-handed ball!

He can stop the ball with ease, like catching a pass from Su Han in practice.

He adjusted his step, raised his right leg, and hooked his ankle inward. When the flying football hit the inside of his foot, his right leg naturally opened outwards, making a cushion, and at the same time pushed his right foot forward , send the football forward.

Let the football not stop directly at his feet, so it will be difficult for him to control the ball while running at high speed.

Sure enough, the football obediently jumped onto the turf in front of him. Although it was still bouncing, this level of bouncing was no longer difficult for Mane. Mane, who slowed down a little because of stopping the ball, immediately accelerated to catch up with the football and headed towards Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

At this time, Atletico Madrid's central defender Godin was still desperately running into the penalty area. He couldn't care less about chasing Mane. After all, it is closer to the penalty area in a straight line than to chase Mane diagonally.

Just when Mane stopped the football, Courtois in front of the goal had decisively abandoned the goal and attacked. He accelerated and rushed towards Mane, completely ignoring the space behind him.

If Mane looks up at this time, he can see the space behind Courtois, and then he can choose to lob.

But unfortunately, Mane didn't look up, all his attention was put on the football under his feet. When he adjusted the football and observed again, Courtois was already close at hand!

As soon as Mane entered the penalty area, Courtois pounced on him, without giving Mane any time to make any other moves, Courtois slid over and stretched out his hand to push the football under Mane's feet aside!

Mane didn't expect Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper to be so fast. Facing Courtois who rushed over, his brain couldn't think about what to do next. He flicked the ball reflexively under his feet, but he missed it. Football, but it was mentioned on Courtois's arm, the football was already taken away by Courtois!

But how did Mane know so clearly?

He kicked Courtois' arm, and when he lost his balance and fell to the ground, he raised his hands and shouted, hoping to attract the referee's attention.

This is a penalty!

As soon as he entered the penalty area, he was tripped to the ground by the opponent's goalkeeper. Isn't this a penalty? This is definitely it!

He fell to the ground and did not forget to look back at the referee.

But he didn't hear any whistle, maybe because there were too many boos?

Beside him, Courtois has already got up from the ground and jumped out again as if stuck on the turf. Mane didn't notice Courtois's movement. He is now focused on waiting for the referee's whistle sound.

Since the booing is too loud to hear the whistle, "then look back at the section.

Mane, who fell to the ground, turned over, just in time to see the referee without turning his head.

The referee...has nothing to say!

Not a penalty?!

He was a little shocked, how could this be possible?! He obviously pulled me down......

Mane went to see Courtois again, and found that Courtois had caught up with the football, and then kicked the football directly to the returning central defender Ge Gong.

After finishing all this, Courtois still had time to come back to Mane, who was in a daze, and growled at him: "`Don't pretend, I hit the ball first`!"

Over the Carl Deron Stadium, the previous harsh boos had turned into deafening cheers at this moment, and all Atletico Madrid fans were chanting Courtois' name.

The banya commentator had to raise his volume desperately in such an environment so as not to be covered by the cheers: "Courtois! He made a very, very, very crucial save! He successfully stopped Liverpool The counterattack! The importance of this save is no less than a goal! If Atletico Madrid can win at home in the end, then they should thank Courtois for this save! If they get a goal in the end If there is a draw, then they still have to thank Courtois for his pounce, at least they didn't let them lose because of this conceded goal!".
