Chapter 197: Should have been a goal...

Remember [New] for a second,! Maxi Carey only felt that the pressure in his chest was increasing rapidly, and he could feel a force trying to stretch his ribs and break out.
It was a burning flame.
His chest was under high temperature and pressure.
It is like magma deep in the mantle, surging and conflicting under the crust, looking for a breach that can be drilled.
But Carey was trying to tame the anger, even though the Royal Cathoun players around him were as distracting as flies and mosquitoes.
These flies mosquitoes…
Carey thought more than once in his heart that if this was before he was seriously injured, it would be impossible for him to be trapped by one or two other people.
He only needs a very simple acceleration to throw off the opponent and dribble the ball towards the goal.
Let the opponent only see his "tail lights".
Now that he has been seriously injured in a row, he has lost the ability to make various sudden stops and changes in high-speed running. His fragile knees and ankles can no longer bear so much pressure.
When the Dutch cannot fly, they may be surrounded by flies and mosquitoes. .
Carey was upset by flies and mosquitoes, and it was impossible for him to keep his anger in check all the time.
How to do it?
Of course it's for the flies and mosquitoes at Royal Cathoun!
※※※
Although the position is a striker when he plays, in the actual game, Maxi Carey's position is very flexible. Parrotti didn't ask him to stay on the front line, but told him he could go wherever he wanted and get the ball wherever he wanted.
He believes that with Carey's experience and talent, he must know where to appear.
It's hard for a head coach to tell a genius like Kyrie what to do.
As a coach, I just need to watch him pretend... No, just watch him perform.
Now Kyrie has dropped back to the forward line, slightly to the left.
It appeared to have squeezed the position of the left midfielder Luka Celovic, forcing the Croatia international to stand close to the touchline and stretch the formation very, very wide.
Joaquín Bella crosses the ball diagonally from the middle.
Benjamin Maldonado, the right back of Real Cateron, followed, even if he saw Celovic on the sideline, he did not throw Kyrie to guard the latter.
Freezing Kyrie, targeting Kyrie, is the top priority in defense.
Almost as soon as Kyrie received the ball, he quickly pushed forward.
Carey stopped the football with the outer instep of his right foot, and at the same time leaned slightly to the left, as if to take the ball to the outside to break through.
Maldonado rushed up to see this scene, and immediately braked suddenly. As a result, his foot slipped and did not stop... But Maldonado's reaction was also very fast. He did not force his balance, but shoveled towards the football!
He thought that this was a surprise, but he didn't expect that Carey would not take the usual path at all.
When Maldonado shoveled over, Carey's right foot slammed into the turf behind the football, and with such a light rub, or a rub, the football that had been well parked on the turf was smashed. Jump up!
As if he had come alive, this jump passed over the feet that Maldonado shoveled over!
Maldonado in near-impossible shoveling... shoveling!
Carey jumped over Maldonado's legs with the football, as lightly as a little girl jumping on a flower rope.
"Wow! Beautiful!"
Neither the commentator nor the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands actually saw the details of Carey's action, but they saw Carey suddenly throw Maldonado away when the average person couldn't react. . So no matter how Carey does it, it's always right to cheer for him!
In the cheers that suddenly increased, Carey dribbled the ball to the penalty area of ​​Real Cateron, Maldonado also quickly got up and chased, and guarded Carey together with the central defender Jacob Tipland who came to defend. .
Under the two people's defense, after Kyrie entered the penalty area, there was no way to get rid of it. If he continued to carry it, he would even lose the shooting angle.
So he forced his kick to shoot.
The football was blocked by Real Cateron goalkeeper Salva Rodriguez.
"Kyrie's shot! Oops what a pity! What a beautiful escape he just got!"
At this time, the TV broadcast showed Carey's extraordinary slow motion just now, and the commentators were shocked:
"Oh my God! Look at this ball! Look at this ball! Look how Kyrie pried up the football so skillfully?"
"Football is obedient at Kyrie's feet like their golden retriever... I can watch it dozens of times over and over again!"
"Maldonado didn't stop the ball? It doesn't matter, no one will think it's Maldonado's problem. It's normal for any defender to be unable to stop this ball!"
"Ah! That's right! This is the Maxi Carey we are familiar with! His delicate foot technique and imaginative handling of the ball are really pleasing to the eye!"
…
The Madrid Pirates fans in the stands also saw Kyrie's wonderful escape just now through the big screen, and their cheers were even louder.
Although the goal was not scored, but if you only listen to the sound, you will definitely think that Kyrie scored...
"This is what Kyrie does!" Parrotti slapped excitedly on the sidelines, and then exclaimed to Valentine, "Using his skills and talents, tearing holes in the opponent's defense and creating Chance!"
Valentin still has some regrets: "It would have been better if he chose to pass the ball just now, Hu has already plugged in in the middle..."
With a smile on his face, Parrotti shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, Jesus. If this breakthrough can make him regain a little confidence, even if he is a little alone, I can totally accept it."
※※※
While everyone was applauding Carey's breakthrough, Maxi Carey shook his head slightly.
The ball just now, if it was him before the injury, after passing Maldonado, it would be impossible for him to be caught by the other two.
Because when he catches up with the football, he only needs to speed up and go forward to enter the penalty area. At the same time, he also drills through between the opponent's two closed defense players, so that the opponent can't stop him at all.
Then he can face the attacking goalkeeper alone and score easily.
But unfortunately, he doesn't dare to do it now.
He was afraid that if he accelerated, his knee would hurt again.
So in the end, after he caught up with the football, he did not dare to sprint. Only then was the opponent's two defensive players stuck and entangled.
Carey sighed.
Everyone was cheering him on as if he had scored a goal.
But it really should have been a goal...
Carey withdrew his gaze to the sky and noticed that Hu Lai was looking at him.
Although he didn't say anything or gesture, Carey knew exactly what Hu Lai's look meant - he shouldn't have chosen to shoot just now, but should have made a cross.
It's just that Carey didn't intend to apologize to Hu Lai.
Not going to explain why he didn't pass the ball.
Although he didn't intentionally turn a blind eye to Hu Lai, he just didn't give up...
※※※
When Hu Lai looked at Kyrie, he wasn't complaining about why he didn't pass the ball to him - he didn't even think about it at all, he was just shocked by what Kyrie had just passed by Maldonado. .
He has never seen Kyrie perform this move in training, so this is definitely not a technical move that Kyrie has practiced for a long time. It was an inspiration, and a random kick came, and the result was a wonderful extraordinary...
And the whole action is done so lightly, the weight is light, natural, high mountains and flowing water, silky smooth... It is difficult to say that he is out of it.
When it comes to pretending to be aggressive on the court, Hu Lai once made a celebration in advance without waiting for the ball to reach the goal.
That is also very coercive.
He Hu Lai has not lost to others in his life, but now he feels that when it comes to pretending, he is really far worse than Maxi Carey.
The gap between the two in this regard is almost like "self-protection", the gap between Kyrie and him is so big.
※※※
Maldonado on the field may still be thankful that he has not become the backdrop for a classic goal.
Off the field, Real Cateron coach Jean Osvaldo has his eyes fixed on Maxi Carey.
Carey is still the same Carey, unchanged!
He still remembers that at the beginning of this season, Carey scored a goal in the first round of the league.
It stands to reason that the performance is good, and the condition is very good.
But in the next few games, he fought alone, and he couldn't cooperate with Hu Lai at all.
In the end, Parrotti could only turn him from the main force into a substitute.
If it weren't for him being seriously injured in the national team game and missing half a year of games, he took the initiative to end the competition between him and Hu Lai in this way.
Now it seems that after half a year of recuperation, Kyrie has no plans to change his playing style. He prefers to do it himself rather than passing the ball to his teammates.
If it is Kyrie in the 2025-2026 season, Osvaldo is really afraid that he will come by himself. In that season, Carey was simply a blocking and killing a god. Buddha blocked and killed Buddha, and he couldn't stop it.
But what about Carey now...
As long as he doesn't pass the football to Hu Lai, he can do whatever he wants!
Jean Osvaldo on the sidelines thought so.
