Chapter 251 Lihuaxiang Hazard, in His Prime!

"The two teams have only met twice since 1998. Real Madrid has won one and lost one against Chelsea. From the historical record, the two teams are evenly matched. The last time the two teams met was in the 2013 International Champions Cup, Real Madrid defeated Chelsea 3-1."

"What kind of sparks will there be when the two teams meet again this time?"

"Kick the ball, Oscar passes the ball to the left, Hazard dribbles the ball."

Hazard's footwork is still very strong. Facing Vasquez on the wing of Real Madrid, Hazard strolled leisurely, lowered his center of gravity, and his eyes were very sharp when dribbling the ball. The frequency of his feet was very fast. He bent his waist while pushing the ball out. When Vasquez kicked out to defend, Hazard suddenly dunked the ball inward.

It passed!

This ball passed Vasquez cleanly!

After all, Vasquez is also a new young player in Real Madrid. He was a versatile player who played for Real Madrid B team Castilla before.

Vazquez can adapt well to all positions on the field, but it is this point that causes this player to not have a particularly outstanding advantage.

After being passed by Hazard, Vazquez was stunned for a moment, and suddenly goose bumps all over his body.

Is this the competition between top teams!

A lightning opportunity, a flash of attacking players, before he had time to react, Hazard had already run to a position that he could not catch up with.

This is too scary, where is there such a rhythm in the Spanish Second Division B!

How did Bai Ran adapt so quickly?

I still remember that when Zidane transferred Bai Ran from Real Madrid B team Castilla, Bai Ran was just 16 years old, and he contributed a goal in the first game of Real Madrid after landing in La Liga.

Next, Bai Ran was unstoppable all the way, scoring goals and assists one after another. After the end of the season, he only lost to Suarez with a few goals and regretfully did not get the La Liga Golden Boot.

But you have to know that Bai Ran only played for half a season!

In this kind of intense game, Bai Ran was able to adapt instantly and immediately carry the banner of Real Madrid. Vazquez couldn't help but tremble in his heart. It was too terrifying.

After Hazard left, Vazquez chased him relentlessly from behind, and the former was obviously faster. After arriving at Real Madrid's territory, Hazard slowed down the pace of dribbling. Although the speed was slower, the frequency of touching the ball under his feet was getting faster and faster.

As we all know, Zaball's dribbling is recognized as strong in football. Casemiro, the back midfielder of Real Madrid, stepped forward to fight for the ball. Hazard gently pushed the ball with his right foot, and the ball went directly between Casemiro's legs.

Through the crotch ball!

Casemiro was also determined to win. Although Hazard did let the ball pass, Casemiro knocked Hazard to the ground with a shoulder.

Even if he had good skills, he couldn't let it pass like this. Football is sometimes like this. The more you show weakness, the more arrogant he is. When he plays more and more confidently, Real Madrid's defense will only be more difficult to deal with at that time.

We can only hit him head on now and make him afraid of Casemiro, so as to curb his strength.

At this time, Hazard really fell to the ground, covering his face in pain.

The referee also came over, pointed at Casemiro and gave him a lecture and warning, giving Chelsea a chance to take a free kick.

There was a burst of cheering from the audience on the sidelines. The fans of Real Madrid and Chelsea came to watch the game today, in fact, they all came to win.

At this stage, no one regarded it as an ordinary warm-up.

To talk about the beginning of all this, we have to start from the game in Paris...

But fortunately for Real Madrid, the referee did not take out a card, but only gave a verbal warning. Casemiro also nodded and reached out to help Hazard up.

Oscar took the free kick for Chelsea.

Oscar, who was born with a delicate appearance, stood in front of the penalty spot and was cheered by a group of female Chelsea fans.

This boy is indeed fair and handsome, and he is very popular with girls during his time in the Blues.

Bai Ran quietly walked to the sideline, and Chelsea's Matic's quick reaction also made him realize this, and he hurriedly called William beside him to defend Bai Ran.

Chelsea's free kick was taken, and this position could actually shoot. Although the distance was a bit far, with Oscar's wonderful footwork, there was still hope of scoring!

Oscar took a run-up-as expected, he chose to shoot!

Bang!

After kicking the ball, Oscar actually felt a little happy in his heart, because he knew the ball he shot best, and this feeling gave him the intuition that: this ball was shot very well, with high quality!

It hit the right part, and the arc was also very sufficient.

If the opponent was Navas, this ball would still have some suspense, but Casillas... It was hard to save this shot.

As long as it passed the wall, it would be a sure thing!

The ball passed the wall, brushed over the heads of Pedro and Portland Traore, and went straight to the dead corner of the goal!

Oscar smiled at the corner of his mouth, and the ball was in!

Bang!

What! ?

Then, Oscar's expression froze instantly. How could this be possible?

The angle of his shot was already very high, which could basically be considered a blind spot in the goal. There was also a certain arc, and the speed of the ball was not slow.

In theory, even in the fiercely competitive Premier League, the goalkeeper would most likely fail to save the ball.

And Casillas was able to... kick the ball out with one hand!

What's going on!

This save was of course greeted with applause and celebration from Real Madrid fans, and the players also applauded Casillas' performance.

Varane ran over and patted him on the back, and Nacho also rubbed Casillas' hair.

Too strong, Casillas didn't know if it was luck or something, he could actually save such a free kick!

Even he himself didn't react until he made the move, he really did it!

Bai Ran laughed and waved at Casillas.

Casillas looked at his gloves, then looked at Bai Ran in the distance, and instantly had a bottom line in his heart.

I practiced free kicks all night last night, and I have formed muscle memory!

Bai Ran, this kid, practiced every day, it's still quite useful!

Success is 99% talent and 1% hard work. Although this is true, if one of these two is missing, success is very far away.

There is no shortage of talented talents in football, but how many people can work as hard as Bai Ran?

Casillas couldn't help but admire Bai Ran very much, and at the same time said to himself, "Good job!"

Then, Real Madrid had not completely resolved the crisis, and a corner kick was born, and this ball was taken by Pedro.

Chelsea's corner kicks are still not very advantageous, because forward Traore is only 1.81 meters tall, and his height is a disadvantage in the process of headers.

Real Madrid still has an absolute advantage in the air control in the penalty area, after all, there is Varane.

Sure enough, after Pedro took the corner kick, there was chaos in the penalty area. Varane jumped high among the crowd and headed the ball out of the penalty area, resolving the crisis.

Let's see who will get the ball. No one is in control of the ball now.

Asensio in front took the ball, turned around to get rid of Oscar, and then ran forward with big strides!

Bai Ran was also trying his best to run. Although Asensio cooperated with Bai Ran very few times, his passing skills were still there.

Asensio passed the ball to Bai Ran, and then Bai Ran used his shaking feet to avoid the opponent's tall and strong Matic!

One of the opponent's midfielders, William, was originally sitting on the wing. Defense was not his advantage, and it could even be said to be his absolute weakness.

But the Brazilian William was also very fast and soon caught up with Bai Ran's pace.

Bai Ran shot left and right, and the characteristics of the bipedal monster came into play again. He knocked the ball down with his left and right feet and controlled the ball under his feet. William ran forward, but missed. Bai Ran stopped the ball. Although the offensive rhythm was slowed down, fortunately, the ball was not lost.

Seeing Morata running in the distance, Bai Ran kicked a long pass!

Morata is 1.9 meters tall, so it is undisputed that he can head the ball and pass it to Mariano next to him.

Mariano performed well in the last game. Let's see what kind of strength this young player will show in this attack.

Bai Ran quickly joined in, but Mariano's pass from this position was not comfortable. When the opponent's Terry pressed forward, Mariano finally couldn't withstand the pressure of the opponent's defender and lost the ball.

Terry took the ball and passed it to the side defender Eina. This time Real Madrid's counterattack came to an abrupt end. Mariano was a little annoyed and raised his hand to signal his teammates.

This ball is mine!

Bai Ran also clapped his hands and told his teammates loudly: "Don't be nervous! Take your time."

"When attacking, you can look at my side more and find a way to pick the ball out!"

Mariano gave Bai Ran a thumbs up and continued to participate in the game.

Now, the game time has come to 20 minutes, and both sides have no goals, and the scene is still 0-0.

The situation is very stalemate, both sides have offense and defense, but no goals have been scored.

Chelsea launched another blitzkrieg. After Terry handed the ball to Eina, the full-back's duty was very simple, which was to pass the ball to Hazard in front.

When Hazard received the ball, two Real Madrid players rushed forward, and Vazquez and Casemiro came together to block.

The threat of this player is still very huge!

Compared with speed wingers such as Bale and Salah, Hazard's absolute speed and momentum are not the best in football. As a wing explosive point, his specialty is his outstanding ball sense, delicate dribbling skills and super-fast foot frequency.

This allows him to repeatedly complete unexpected passes through the rhythm changes during high-speed dribbling and small-scale sudden stops and turns.

He is only 173 cm tall and weighs 76 kg. Among many wingers, he is relatively sturdy.

His strong thighs and plump hips give him enough physical confrontation ability to gain a foothold in or even surpass the Premier League.

In addition, his low chassis allows him to complete a quick turn and get rid of his opponent even when he is facing away.

Every player who has had the honor of playing against Hazard knows how difficult it is to get the ball away from him.

This is not only due to his excellent dribbling skills, but also has a lot to do with his physical fitness.

In countless scenarios, those who tried desperately to stop Hazard either became more embarrassed by his dodging and maneuvering, or eventually paid the price of a foul.

Hazard lowered his center of gravity in a classic way, and then changed direction by shaking left and right, and with a very high frequency of passing the ball, he successfully shook off Casemiro. When Vazquez stepped forward to assist, Hazard rushed to the left again, and the two defenders instantly left him behind.

The frequency of his feet was so fast that the two Real Madrid defenders were completely passed by him!

Zaball King is worthy of being Zaball King!

For some reason, at this time, the lyrics of a song suddenly sounded in Bai Ran's mind...

The mandarin ducks on the pillow slept with the red lotus and talked about the past, and the girl with a full body and a peach blossom reflected on her face...

Is this Hazard in the pear blossom period?

Too strong!

At this moment, Bai Ran couldn't hold back any longer. Carvajal was in front of Hazard. If he broke through this line of defense, whether he broke through to the bottom line or chose to cut inside and shoot, it would be a great threat and it would be very easy to score a goal.

So Bai Ran also ran over to defend Hazard.

The Belgian saw Bai Ran's figure gradually approaching, and actually wanted to make a move, but Bai Ran looked aggressive and wanted to fight with him, and Hazard looked again and found that he was an Asian! ?

Then fight!

After all, his lower body and core strength are also very stable. Ordinary full-backs can't beat Hazard, let alone Bai Ran, who is not so strong.

He was mentally prepared in his heart, and Bai Ran naturally really went to the body.

Bang!

A collision like Mars hitting the Earth!

Unexpectedly, Bai Ran, who looked weaker, actually pushed Hazard out!

Hazard staggered, fell to the sidelines and even hit the billboard.

Bai Ran didn't mean to hurt the players, but in this scenario, he had to make a defensive countermeasure, otherwise this killer would probably score.

This is also Bai Ran's responsibility. Under the 442 formation, the two midfielders must have both offensive and defensive tasks. After Casemiro was shaken off, Bai Ran had to step forward, otherwise the defense would be completely exposed to the opponent's field of vision.

Then, Hazard seemed to be a little dissatisfied. After all, after dribbling the ball to this moment and being physically violated, there would be more or less emotional fluctuations.

At this time, Bai Ran jogged forward and stretched out his hand to Hazard to show his friendliness.

Hazard saw Bai Ran's attitude, and his anger disappeared by half. After calming down and thinking about it, any defender would also tackle him, which was also a helpless thing. Bai Ran chose the method of upper limb collision, which was also a kind of protection for himself.

If the other players of Real Madrid came up, it would probably not be as simple as a collision...

So Hazard stretched out his hand and shook it with Bai Ran, and was pulled up by Bai Ran.

At the same time, Hazard also patted Bai Ran on the back, indicating that it was nothing serious.

"Good defense, strong physical fitness."

He didn't expect that Bai Ran's body shape could knock him out. This was indeed a bit surprising, which scared Hazard.

Hazard said this, but Bai Ran smiled and didn't respond.

That sentence was on his lips...

He wanted to say, eat less hamburgers and more vegetables!

Hazard later joined Real Madrid and was known as the Burger King. At the same time, his career was also wasted for more than half. Of course, this was what happened in Bai Ran's previous life.

At this moment, he just remained silent, with a faint smile on his face.

This was a clumsy but helpless defense. The referee blew the whistle and came over to give Chelsea a free kick!

The free kick in this position is very unfavorable for Real Madrid and is an opportunity for Chelsea.

Standing in front of the penalty spot is the Belgian star Hazard!

Hazard is in a very relaxed state, looking at the goal in the distance, and a firm color flashes in his eyes.

Swish!

After Hazard’s run-up, he kicked the ball with his right foot!

This ball was a sudden shot. When no one was ready, Hazard kicked the ball directly!

Casilla was caught off guard. Although he jumped into the air and made a save, the quality of the ball was too high, the shot was very powerful, and the angle was very tricky!

A very tight angle!

A world wave from a free kick! From Hazard!

Bai Ran pursed his lips and pinched his nose with his hand. It seems that he has to be more serious.

In the 38th minute of the game, Hazard scored the first goal for Chelsea.

Hazard ran to the sidelines and slid down to celebrate passionately, igniting the enthusiasm of the entire stadium!

Chelsea fans cheered very loudly and cheered for the Chelsea king.

Real Madrid seems to be a little anxious. The situation is very unfavorable for them now.

They are currently at the top of the list. If they want to win the championship, they must win this game.

And the more goals the better!

Real Madrid kicked off from the center circle, and Bai Ran immediately launched an attack. They had to at least make up for the deficit in the first half, otherwise going into the second half with a disadvantage would have a great impact on the situation on the field.

Bai Ran sent the ball to Vasquez. This old teammate was new to the team and seemed to be not very adaptable to the rhythm of the top team competition. However, after dozens of minutes of competition, he gradually tightened his spirit and made fewer mistakes.

After getting the ball, Vasquez faced Hazard and did not choose to pass the ball forward, but knocked the ball horizontally to Casemiro's feet.

After Casemiro got the ball, he passed the ball through Chelsea's midfield defense and the ball came to Mariano's feet in the frontcourt!

The latter advanced with the ball, and was a little cramped in front of Matic. In a panic, he barely passed the ball to Morata's feet.

At this moment, Morata was facing the goal more than 30 meters away, but he shot directly!
