Ramirez received a yellow card in the 37th minute of the game, which was a big hidden danger for Cruzeiro's defense in the middle. His last red card at halftime in the confrontation still reminded the young Batista New, or that game was the biggest shame since the beginning of his coaching career, and it is unforgettable.

So Batista rushed to the sidelines to remind Parana and the two full-backs to help Ramirez more and relieve him of the defensive pressure in the midfield.

However, Cruzeiro, who plays a 442 formation at home, has certain limitations. The increase in strikers will inevitably lead to a lack of defense in the center. In addition, Ramirez is now carrying a yellow card, which is stretched.

If other positions are allowed to help Ramirez again, it will be tantamount to demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall, and in the end it will be nothing.

Of course, there were no problems at the beginning, and Cruzeiro's defense at home was still solid due to the replacement of each other.

It's just that as time passed, Tang Zheng had a keen insight into the problems exposed by Cruzeiro's defense in the middle, so the number of exclamations from the fans of the home team in the stands increased significantly.

Now Ramirez, who has received a yellow card, is much less defensive on the defensive end. Even when he stretches his feet out, he will be frightened, fearing that the opposing player will poke the ball away first and cause his own foul.

This is a sign of lack of confidence.

In the 41st minute, River Plate switched from defense to offense, but Parana made a tactical foul in the frontcourt.

River Plate quickly sent a free kick in the backcourt, and Tang Zheng and his teammates made several consecutive passes to control the ball to the frontcourt.

When Tang Zheng ran to the attacking right rib about thirty-five meters away from the bottom line, he received another forward pass from Aveleras, and Ramirez was in front of him.

Tang Zheng stepped on the ball with his right foot, looked at Ramirez who was two meters away, the corner of his mouth curled into a beautiful arc, as if he was deliberately mocking Ramirez.

Ramirez could naturally understand the meaning of Tang Zheng's smile, but he knew he couldn't be impulsive!

Before the final, his agent told him that Benfica from Portugal was interested in him, and Cruzeiro also agreed to an offer of 7.5 million euros. Thinking of the lovely Cruzeiro fans in the past, he wanted to leave the team Give the fans some commemorations, so the first round of the Copa Libertadores final must be calm!

Tang Zheng glanced at Ramirez again, shook his head, then passed the ball with his right foot to Ponceo who was coming up, and headed towards the middle to kill.

Poncio, with no sticky ball at his feet, passed the ball to right-back Billy before Kleber went up to tackle, and Billy then passed the ball to Augusto Fernandez.

After passing several kicks in a row, the football reached the feet of Tang Zheng, who was active in the middle, and Ramirez was in front of him again.

With Poncio's forward pressure and the two wingers retracting, they made the illusion of cooperating with Tang Zheng, making no one dare to support Ramirez for the time being.

Ramirez lowered his center of gravity, faced Tang Zheng's forward dribbling and consciously fought and retreated, keeping a certain safe distance.

Ramirez, who was engrossed, even had an illusion that as long as Tang Zheng thought about his own intentions, he would teach Tang Zheng to be a man!

Some people can't be bullied casually!

However, Ramirez, with his back to the goal, only noticed the two river plate players on the ribs, and didn't know the situation behind him at all.

At this moment, Falcao suddenly ran out from the restricted area to meet Tang Zheng.

Seeing Falcao's retreat, Bonannot on the left side did not hesitate to move to the center to involve the defense line, while left-back Ferrari consciously moved forward along the side.

Tang Zheng had a wide field of vision and saw Falcao's retreat, just as Ramirez, who was fully focused, opened the door wide, Tang Zheng stepped on the ball with the sole of his right foot and pulled it back.

Ramirez thought that Tang Zheng was just looking for passing cooperation, so he didn't care.

But Tang Zheng's next linking action was very fast and very subtle at the same time. He quickly kicked the football with the arch of his right foot, and then started running on the spot to attack the right rib.

"Damn it!"

The two are very close,

It was too late for Ramirez to close his legs.

※※※

"——wooooooow!" Abel Claudio exclaimed: "Wonderful pass through the crotch!!"

Falcao withstood Leonardo Silva's impact at the top of the arc in the penalty area, and returned the ball to Tang Zheng with the arch of his right foot.

Because Ramirez had a leg retraction movement, it was already too late when he started to defend Tang Zheng again.

In the process of running to meet the ball, Tang Zheng looked up at the goalkeeper Fabio's position, and at the same time his feet were adjusting his steps. How could Ramirez not know what Tang Zheng was going to do?

It is less than 30 meters away from the goal, and it is temporarily unmarked.

Shoot!

Goalkeeper Fabio also consciously moved towards the close corner, he was confident that as long as Tang Zheng dared to shoot from a long distance, he would dare to make the world's top ten saves!

Ramirez didn't give up, he stepped on the ground alternately with both feet, and his super explosive power made him quickly approach Tang Zheng.

At the same time, Tang Zheng naturally lowered his head, put his left foot about 30 cm to the left of the oncoming football, and swung his right foot exaggeratedly, making a long-range shot.

"—Shoot!!"

The commentators in the live commentary roared and shouted almost at the same time.

Without hesitation, Ramirez fell to the ground and extended his right foot to try to block Tang Zheng's shot.

But Tang Zheng didn't kick the football with his swung right foot, but slammed the football that Falcao had made to the left.

Ramirez slid far out and lost his defensive position.

"Ooh-oh--"

There was another burst of exclamation over the Mineiro Stadium, and the hearts of many fans of the home team were raised in their throats.

Abel Claudio quickly changed the conversation and shouted: "Wonderful fake shot!!"

Tang Zheng's fake shot knocked down Ramirez, and another central midfielder, Parana, had to step forward to defend, but Tang Zheng refused to give him this chance. After he dunked Ramirez, Swinging his right foot again, he kicks the ball with the outside instep of his right foot.

The football flew from the outside to the inside with an obvious arc of the outer instep to the left side of River Plate's attack. Cruzeiro right back Honasan was a little hesitant in the process of retreating, obviously due to insufficient judgment of the football's landing point.

By the time he took off, it was too late, and he only hit a cloud of air.

"It's over the top!"

Brazil Global TV commentator Bueno exclaimed.

Ferrari didn't lose his mind, on the contrary, he was very confident in Tang Zheng's transfer. In the past, he was very accurate in all kinds of coquettish transfers, and this time he firmly believed that it was the same.

really!

Ferrari stopped and took the ball in one go, taking advantage of the situation and wading the ball into the penalty area.

Right centre-back Leonardo Silva had to follow Parana into the penalty area and rush towards Ferrari desperately to put him under pressure.

But Ferrari didn't wait for them to come over, and swept the ball directly to the penalty spot without looking up.

Falcao threw off Eleanor's marking during the accelerated running process, swung his left foot and made a burst shot.

Eleanor's fall to the ground did not touch the football, and the goalkeeper Fabio, who was trying to make a save, half knelt on the ground and kept his upper hand up.

The soccer ball violently slammed into the snow-white net until the potential energy ceased before falling to the ground...

※※※

The sky above the Mineiro Stadium was suddenly silent until a second later, the three thousand River Plate fans who came with the team shouted hysterically and waved their fists to celebrate the team's away goal.

Falcao, who scored the ball, was very excited. He has been questioned by many media due to the poor state of the club due to the national team.

But this goal gave him a perfect counterattack, the opening goal of the Copa Libertadores final!

The true colors of the shooter are undoubtedly displayed.

The tiger is out!

He vented his depression with his signature kneeling celebration and crazy roar.

This is his eighth goal in the Copa Libertadores!

Then he blew another kiss to the VIP table, where his singer girlfriend Lolei Lei was sitting.

The two of them separated each other with affection, envious of others.

Of course, Falcao, who scored the goal, did not forget his teammates, he turned around and embraced Tang Zheng and other teammates who planned the attack.

Especially Tang Zheng's slanted pass with the outside instep after the fake shot and the real dunk, it's so coquettish!

Coach Simeone raised his arms and shouted excitedly, waving his fists vigorously.

The recovering home fans erupted into a wave of boos like mountains and seas, quickly sweeping the entire Mineiro Stadium.

However, the River Plate players who took the lead didn't care, they had experienced many battles, and being booed by the home fans itself meant that they frightened the home fans.

Only fear will take advantage of the large number of people to resist hysterically.

The on-site director finished the replay of the goal and then switched the camera one after another. The faces of the players of the home team were almost full of depression and helplessness.

Batista rushed to the sidelines. He slapped his palms a few times with a heavy face, and shouted at the players: "It's normal to lose the ball in the game. Don't be discouraged, just chase it back! You can do it! Because you are One of the two best teams in South America this year!!"

On the other side, Simeone, who had celebrated the goal with his assistants, quickly called Aveleras over: "They will definitely strengthen their offense if they concede the ball during this period of time. You can tell Diego and Augusto to let them They pay attention to not needing to retreat to respond when switching from defense to offense, and directly go to the two sides to fill in the space."

Aveleras nodded, then ran to the field and told his teammates according to Simeone's latest adjustment.

At the same time, Simeone put his hands and tail fingers together in his mouth, and he whistled vigorously.

Tang Zheng, who was running back, looked towards the sidelines. Simeone stretched out his right hand and made a subtle gesture. Tang Zheng returned a thumb to express his understanding.

After the re-kick-off, Cruzeiro stepped up his attack under the shouts of the home fans, but they were afraid of River Plate's quick counterattack, and the two full-backs did not dare to press at the same time.

So their offense was not an actual threat, there was a lot of thunder and little rain.

Ramires, who was responsible for the team's conceded goals, tried his best to help the team equalize the score through his own efforts. He took the ball 30 meters away from the goal and tried a long shot.

Judging from the effect, it is quite threatening.

But in the eyes of head coach Batista, he was squandering the opportunity. If he had calmly distributed the ball to the attacking right flank just now, the threat would have been even greater.

As the days passed, Ramirez became more irritable.

Seeing that the first half time was about to end, he started the shooting mode.
