Chapter 1 Chen Hero's Brainstorm

Chen Hero was considering a problem when his team got this throw-in—how to get the football into the goal.

Obviously, Barcelona already knew how powerful his header was, so they were defending him very strictly. No matter how good he was, he couldn't score with his head right now.

He had to find another way, think of something else. But for Chen Hero, who liked to play pranks with Cassano, this was not difficult. He always had a special talent for coming up with tricks.

So he ran to the edge of the penalty area and stood next to Alves.

But so far, no one knew what he was going to do.

※※※

"Woah—!"

Seeing Chen Hero appear next to Alves, many commentators were excited.

Why?

Because everyone remembered the feud between the two last season.

Chen Hero was sent off with a red card because of Alves's trap, and the two teams had a big fight because of it. It can be said that the feud between Chen Hero and Alves was the starting point of those later events.

But one of them is a center forward and the other is a full-back, so they usually don't have any interaction. This game is even more so.

The two had no direct dialogue from the beginning of the game until now.

Now that Chen Hero took the initiative to stand next to Alves, he certainly didn't want to shake hands and make peace with Alves, but to have a one-on-one showdown with Alves!

How could the commentators not be excited?

Maybe the two can spark something in this contest!

Everyone has been waiting for such a good show since the beginning of the game!

"From the beginning of the game, I reminded everyone to pay attention to the feud between Chen Hero and Alves. Now the two are finally facing each other!"

For a time, everyone's attention was focused on Chen Hero, and no one paid attention to anyone else.

It seemed that the football would definitely be thrown to Chen Hero.

Didn't anyone think about whether this was Napoli's conspiracy? Let Chen Hero stand at the front to attract the attention of Barcelona's defense, and then give Hamsik, Cassano, and Arshavin a chance to shoot...

Piqué was one of the few who thought of this.

He didn't follow Chen Hero up, but thought about the problem behind. He looked around and saw that Hamsik and Cassano were not in the penalty area, but outside, looking like they were ready to come in at any time.

He became more and more convinced of his judgment.

But it seemed difficult for Alves to face Chen Hero alone. In any case, it would be very dangerous to let Chen Hero get the ball in the penalty area if there was only one person defending him...

He called Mascherano and pointed to Chen Hero: "Javier! Go help Daniel!"

Mascherano obediently ran over and stood behind Chen Hero.

※※※

Criscito held the football in his arms, thinking about how to throw the ball.

In fact, the coach has arranged the throw-in in this place. Because Napoli lacks powerful throw-in players, they rarely throw the ball directly to Chen Hero in front of the goal. They will choose to throw the ball to their teammates who come to respond, and then reorganize the attack. They can also cross from the wing or go to the middle.

But Criscito noticed Chen Hero. He put his hand on his chest and poked himself with his thumb, signaling Criscito to pass the football to him.

Pass to Hero...

Criscito hesitated. This position was not where Chen Hero was best at scoring goals, and he was facing away from the direction of attack... Maybe he wanted to use himself as a wall?

Thinking of this, Criscito's eyes lit up, and he understood.

Chen Hero must be using himself to attract the opponent's defensive attention. If he threw the football to him, and he passed the football back to himself, he could get a relatively free space.

That's right, that's it!

※※※

"Criscito is going to throw this throw-in, let's see who he will throw the football to..."

Criscito took a step back, making it look like he was going to throw a powerful free kick to the middle, and then with one step, he threw the football directly to Chen Hero!

Messi also retreated to defend. When he saw Criscito taking a step back, he suddenly thought that Chen Hero would be the one to catch the ball. So he directly gave up the idea of blocking Criscito at the front and turned to pounce on Chen Hero behind him.

His action made Criscito even more convinced of Chen Hero's intention to cooperate with him.

So after throwing the ball, he ran straight along the sideline!

Alves and Mascherano both saw Criscito's action, and they both felt a chill in their hearts.

They wanted to go up to defend Criscito, but they were blocked by Chen Hero's wide body and couldn't leave. Now it seemed that Chen Hero came up to screen for Criscito... This is the legendary "pick and roll"!

Especially when Criscito threw the football out, Chen Hero immediately rushed forward, blocking the position and blocking the two of them behind him, which made them have no doubt about Criscito and Chen Hero's intentions.

While they were racking their brains, the football flew over.

※※※

Chen Hero stopped the football with his chest.

Next, he should pass the football to Criscito, who was cutting in, right?

No!

Everyone was wrong!

"Hero catches the ball... Oh!!!" The commentator suddenly burst into a huge exclamation, because he saw that after Chen Hero stopped the ball with his chest, he did not pass the ball, but directly turned around and swung his right leg...

Messi was about to run to Chen Hero. At this moment, a gust of wind blew past his face, even blowing up the hair on his forehead.

Why did a gust of wind suddenly blow on the field? And it was a gust of wind only aimed at his face. It was as if someone was holding a small fan and blowing at his face...

When the wind passed, Messi could see clearly... It was Chen Hero's right foot!

It swept past the tip of his nose, hitting the football solidly!

"Bang!" The muffled sound exploded in his ears, and grass clippings flew around, some of them flying towards him. He subconsciously turned his head and blinked.

When he opened his eyes again, the football had disappeared in front of him.

※※※

"Direct... volley—!!"

The commentator roared with his mouth wide open, with an incredible look in his eyes.

The football drew an arc from bottom to top and then from top to bottom in the commentator's roar, heading for the far corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Valdés stood in front, watching the football fly towards him. He jumped up on the spot and stretched out his arms.

Did not touch the football!

It wasn't that the football flew higher than his outstretched hand, but because the football flew much faster than his hand waved! When his arm waved to the position, the football had already rushed past, and what he blocked was only the residual image left by the football...

The football, which had passed Valdés's barrier, quickly fell, reaching a height below the crossbar, and then... without any suspense, it went into the goal and hit the inside of the far end of the net!

Goal!

※※※

This goal was scored so suddenly and quickly that everyone had not yet reacted.

The noisy stadium fell into a brief pause at this moment.

At this moment, a few cheers rang out—it was the voices of the Napoli players!

Like a fuse, their shouts reignited the passion of the stadium, and a huge roar swept over, as if the entire Wembley Stadium was shaking in this shout!

"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooL!!!"

"Unbelievable! What did I see? My God!"

"A goal that is completely indescribable in words! Beautiful! So beautiful!"

"Incredible! I'm tired of saying this word! Because Hero can always bring us such surprises! He once again scored a goal that combines inspiration and skill!"

"How did he think of it? How did he do it?! He stopped the ball with his chest at the corner of the penalty area, then turned around and volleyed directly, completing such a difficult goal! He equalized the score for Napoli!"

"Barcelona's lead is gone! Before, it was said that few teams could reverse the situation when they were leading. But now, I seem to see a good show of reversal being staged in front of my eyes!"

"Twelfth goal! This is also Chen Hero's twelfth Champions League goal this season! Just after Messi scored twelve goals, he did it too! He's really chasing after him!"

"Messi must have felt tremendous pressure! Because Chen Hero scored! Twelve goals in seven games... No matter whether Chen Hero can win the Golden Boot in this season's Champions League, I think we must admit such a fact—if we only talk about scoring ability, Chen Hero is really better than Messi!"

"Too crazy! This season's Champions League is too crazy! The competition between the two strikers has ignited all the passion! Chen Hero is like Superman, he scores as many goals as his opponent scores! And such an excellent striker, he is only twenty-three years old! What will his future be like?! It's really exciting!"

※※※

"Long live! Hero! Long live!!" The fans of the Blue Giant Bears jumped up from their seats and raised their arms and shouted. This time, the boos from the stands were much smaller—when a player continues to score goals and help the team win while being insulted and attacked by you, I am afraid that not many people can continue to treat him that way with a heart of stone.

"It's amazing! It's awesome!" The Chinese fans in front of the TV also climaxed one after another, screaming again and again.

"Hero is awesome!"

"He can even score twice against Barcelona, he's really crazy!"

"Such a hero, even the Cosmos Team can't stop you!"

"Damn!" Chen Xing, who was sitting in the VIP box, stood up from his seat with a slap, "This goal alone is worth seventy million... pounds!"

Niang applauded next to him: "Unparalleled, wonderful. After watching this game, I am more and more looking forward to next season's Premier League..."

"Same expectation!" Chen Xing clapped his hands vigorously, smiling brightly.
