Chapter 62

The second match of the UEFA Europa League round of 16 took place as scheduled at Luminus Arena. Schalke 04 must win or draw and achieve a difference of over 2 goals so it can be said that this is the final battle.

After only 6 minutes of play, Henk created a delicate combination in the front line. Jason Aldridge pushed back Gareth Barry in front of the box after receiving the ball from the left wing. Barry pretended to touch the goal and fooled the defender. After falling to the ground, he used his right foot to push towards Karl Bess in the middle.

Bess did not block but followed the ball to the right wing, the ball flew over the defender's head and into the penalty area. Vuong Phong waited in ambush for a long time and fired a volley straight into the away team's goal.

After scoring, Vuong Phong rushed to the stands. He was greeted by cheers from fans. Luminus Arena, which can accommodate 25,000 people, was filled to capacity. At this moment, her heart was boiling like boiling water.

This goal was a strong blow to Schalke 04. For the next 30 minutes, they could not organize an attack. Head coach Herbert Vysok rarely used him in the first half. Two players were replaced but the situation on the field still did not improve.

In the 43rd minute, Henk Barry was knocked down by his opponent while holding the ball in the front court. The referee awarded a direct free kick and Wang Feng decided to take the penalty. As he continued to practice, he felt his free kick skills had improved a lot and could be used as a regular weapon.

Hearing a "bang", Vuong Phong kicked the ball with the instep of his right foot. The ball followed an arc in the air, went around the left side of the wall and then turned into the upper corner, flying towards the upper right corner of the goal. , very similar to Beckham's famous "Full Moon Scimitar" skill.

The Schalke 04 goalkeeper rushed at the ball but in the end he only threw it in the right direction without touching the ball, the ball went wide of the goal post.

2:0! Vuong Phong scored two goals! At this time, the total score was 4:2, Genk had an absolute advantage.

At 60 minutes of the second half, Wang Feng was substituted and Genk applied a defensive stance to consolidate the lead. Schalke 04 had to rely on Emile Mpenza to take the lead in the 85th minute but it was too late.

Genk has successfully reached the quarterfinals of the Europa League, equaling the best record in team history! With 11 goals, Wang Feng also topped the Europa League top scorer chart.

.....

In the final match of the four-match fortnight, on matchday 27 of Ligue 1, Genk faced Standard Liège. In this match, Aimee Antonis applied a rotating lineup, Wang Feng and some other main players were on the bench. Although currently leading Anderlecht by only 3 points, the continuous high-intensity fighting has caused difficulties for the players, so after careful consideration, Antonis still firmly decided to rotate.

But looking at the bold 0:1 score on the scoreboard, Antonis was still extremely worried. Before that, the match between Anderlecht and Segra Brugge ended and they defeated their opponents with a score of 5:0. If Genk loses this match, they will lose the top spot in the rankings due to the disadvantage of goal difference.

At this time, the situation on the field was still extremely dangerous for Genk, both the attack and defense were playing very poorly. Fortunately, this goalkeeper played bravely and could not widen the gap further.

Antonis looked at Vuong Phong sitting on the chair. Vuong Phong just happened to look over. Looking at himself, Antonis saw determination and confidence in Vuong Phong's eyes, as if to say: "Let me play, leave it to me."

Antonis therefore put all his trust in Vuong Phong. In the 71st minute, Wang Feng was replaced.

Seven minutes later, Vuong Phong received the ball with his back to the right. He used his toes to pick up the ball and the ball went over the head of the defender behind him. Vuong Phong also took this opportunity to escape.

When dribbling the ball to the edge of the penalty area, facing the blockage of two defensive players in the penalty area, Vuong Phong dribbled the ball horizontally along the edge of the penalty area to the left, using speed to create a shot. space, then scored without hesitation.

The ball followed an angled line across the field and into the bottom right corner of the goal. The Standard Liège goalkeeper fell to the ground to catch the ball, but when the ball bounced off the ground after a jump, it was refracted directly from his saving arm into the net. 1:1! Genk equalized the score and Wang Feng never disappointed the fans!

This score was also maintained until the end of the match, Genk struggled to earn 1 point and continued to dominate Anderlecht with this 1 point advantage.

.....

Finally, an evil plan was completed, all the Henk soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and the team that began their two-day long vacation was lost.

Vuong Phong consumed a lot of physical strength, so additional exercises that mainly focused on health recovery and physical training were canceled. Bess and Chivu refused to go to the practice field first, so Wang Feng practiced holding the ball alone. Placing a row of wooden dummies in the front yard, Vuong Phong used them to practice ball positioning. Left, center and right, 20 to 30 meters apart, Wang Feng tried all different positions.

Using his keen senses, he adjusted the duration of his momentum, UU read www.uukanshu. The kicking part, body posture, strength of force, etc., the kicked ball created strange arcs in the air one after another, some hit the wooden dummy, and some were kicked out.

As the number of practices increased, the number of times the ball entered the goal also increased but still failed to hit the target. Vuong Phong clearly understood that although each kick in the same position is guaranteed to perform exactly the same, due to changing environmental conditions, it is still possible to hit or miss.

No wonder a military uniform as strong as Beckham's cannot be said to be used as a regular offensive weapon, but only occasionally can it be incredibly effective. The reason why Wang Feng's fixed-ball rate is so high is because the number of penalties is small.

However, Wang Feng had unparalleled cognitive ability, so he could roughly understand how to best place the ball in each position through training and standardizing this attack method. Imagine, a very threatening attacker less than 30 meters from the box, I don't dare to foul easily and give him a set-piece, that would be terrible. After thinking for a while, Vuong Phong regained his composure and continued to practice. On the practice field, only the sounds of "bang", "bang", "bang" of hitting the ball could be heard.

After a day of training, Vuong Phong took a shower at the club and left as usual. As he left, he took a copy of Sofia Levski's player information that the club had just collected.

Sofia Levski is Genk's opponent in the top 8 of the Europa League. This is one of the most famous football clubs in Bulgaria. The team's best achievement is also entering the top 8 of the Europa League, so the overall strength is not very strong. They said we shot someone.

While happy, the club's senior leadership also urgently collected information about their opponents and provided it to the coaching staff to organize tactics. The whole team hopes to overcome this opponent and create new history.
