Spain National Team's attack became more fierce, but Sweden National Team, who had already replaced several new players, showed no signs of decline. Moreover, when Spain's attack failed several times, two sudden counterattacks made Spain National Team's backcourt also trembling.
However, these two counterattacks also caused Ibrahimovic to use up his last bit of energy. Ibrahimovic, who was as strong as an ox, also suffered from cramps.
After all, he is a 40-year-old player. No matter how good his physical fitness is, he cannot withstand the ravages of time.
Ibrahimovic sat on the court with an annoyed look on his face and punched the grass twice with his fists.
It was about to end again, Ibrahimovic felt a little uneasy.
I still remember that when I was playing on behalf of Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in the league, I also ran out of energy at the last moment and was substituted.
But he was standing on the bench, watching helplessly as Li Mingyu defeated Atletico Madrid at the last moment, allowing himself to lose the strong dialogue.
That feeling of powerlessness has already made Ibrahimovic extremely painful.
This time, he was replaced again at nearly eighty minutes, and the score on the field was tied again.
Ibrahimovic has an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness. Is his team going to make the same mistake again?
Ibrahimovic, who was sitting on the bench, looked at the situation on the field with an ugly expression.
After Ibrahimovic left the field, Sweden National Team basically shrank to within a thirty-meter area.
However, the situation on the field made Ibrahimovic's anxious heart slowly return to his stomach.
At the 90th minute, it was about to enter stoppage time. Spain National Team had not yet been able to break through Sweden National Team's defense and send the football into the opponent's goal.
The score is still a 2:2 draw.
Spain National Team's players became anxious and their movements became a little out of control.
Although this game is a draw, it does not mean that your team cannot enter World Cup, but the opportunity to directly qualify is gone, which will bring many unnecessary variables to the team.
The referee's whistle was also blowing frequently. In just two minutes, Spain National Team was rewarded with two topaz War God cards.
Li Mingyu was also shouting loudly, using his own voice to tell everyone that they must calm down, the game is not over yet.
Li Mingyu's voice did have some effect.
However, the red reminder of three minutes of stoppage time on the electronic board in the hand of the fourth official on the sidelines made the Spain National Team players anxious again.
There really isn't much time left for Spain National Team.
On the sidelines, not only the head coaches of both sides were standing there, but all the substitute players were standing behind the head coaches with their shoulders clasped, with tangled expressions on their faces, praying for each other's teams.
In the 91st minute, Li Mingyu's long shot caused the opponent's goalkeeper to make a world-class save and shut out a very beautiful world wave.
Fans on both sides of the stands made different calls.
Spain National Team fans all held their heads in disbelief and sighed in despair.
Sweden National Team fans all took a deep breath and laughed happily for the rest of their lives.
But the game was not over yet. The football that was shot out by the goalkeeper did not fall at the feet of Spain National Team.
The backcourt players didn't dare to neglect and kicked directly towards Spain National Team's half.
A yellow figure, like a sharp arrow, started from Sweden National Team's half and ran towards Spain National Team's frontcourt.
Since the Spain National Team formation was too close together, Ramos and Eric Garcia started almost at the same time as each other.
But this player had just been substituted. He was very energetic and strode into Spain National Team's half.
After receiving the pass, he left almost all the Spain National Team players behind him and rushed towards the Spain National Team penalty area with long strides.
But there was a huge exclamation from the stands.
In the live footage, this player dribbled the ball from the left sideline toward the center, and kept looking back at the movements of Spain National Team's defensive players. When he found that Eric Garcia, who was closest to him, was still about two meters away from him, he was already full of confidence.
But to his left, a player wearing a white Spain National Team away uniform caught up from behind like lightning.
Seeing that the distance between the two people is shortening crazily.
Li Mingyu.
After Li Mingyu shot the ball, he didn't even have time to show an expression of annoyance and began to pursue the ball crazily. Fortunately, the ball stayed in the air long enough and was deflected enough, giving Li Mingyu the chance to pursue it.
Because two minutes ago, the system activated the passive skill of "Iron-Blooded Fighting Spirit" again, which greatly restored Li Mingyu's physical strength, allowing him to still have such a speed of pursuit at this time.
"Oh my God, let's see who this is, Li Mingyu. He is chasing after him like crazy. Li Mingyu is even faster than Forsberg who just came on the stage. This is What kind of physical fitness? You know, Li Mingyu's physical strength has been very problematic last season. It seems that this summer, Li Mingyu's improvement is very huge!"
"Ah, Forsberg doesn't seem to notice Li Mingyu who is chasing after him. His speed has actually slowed down. It seems that he is preparing to lob. Now Spain National Team goalkeeper Simon's position is indeed a bit forward."
"Li Mingyu came to the side of Forsberg. Forsberg seemed to be startled. The ball at his feet was a little out of control. Beautiful, Li Mingyu was very clean. Forsberg made a tackle and left the football at his feet. Forsberg fell to the ground, waving his hands, signaling to the referee that it was a foul, but the referee did not make any indication because there was really nothing wrong with the ball."
"After Li Mingyu made the tackle, he quickly got up and rushed towards Sweden National Team's half."
At this time, due to the pass just now, the Sweden National Team players saw the possibility of scoring a goal, so their formation began to press forward involuntarily.
And Spain's players all ran towards their own backcourt, preparing to return to defense.
Sweden National Team's lineup has become a little loose.
After seeing Li Mingyu steal the ball, Sweden National Team, who was already feeling relieved, forgot their defensive strategy and began to chase and intercept Li Mingyu in the midfield.
Li Mingyu looked up and found a huge gap on the left. Alba had quickly stepped in. Li Mingyu made a 40-meter long pass at an angle of 45 degrees near the midfield, passing the ball directly to Alba's feet.
Li Mingyu did not stop after passing the ball, but continued to rush towards the opponent's goal quickly.
After Alba received the pass from Li Mingyu, he took a few steps forward and made a direct pass.
Since Sweden National Team's defensive formation has been somewhat distracted by this pass, there is an obvious missing person in the middle.
Young player Brian Hill, who had just been substituted, fired a volley, and the football flew toward the goal like a cannonball.
The atmosphere in the stadium was about to freeze, and everyone's attention was focused on football.
The time has reached more than ninety-two minutes and forty seconds. If this goal can be scored, it will definitely kill the game.
However, what breaks the heart of all Spain fans is that although Brian Hill's shot was extremely powerful, the angle was too right. The opponent's goalkeeper barely moved and hit the football with both fists.
However, because the ball was too powerful, it hit the goalkeeper's fist and flew high into the penalty area.
The referee is already looking at his watch at this time. The time has reached 92 minutes and 50 seconds. There are still ten seconds left and the game is about to end. If the ball is damaged by the opponent's goalkeeper or player and leaves the penalty area, the referee may directly blow the whistle to end the game.
But with the "own goal" in the first half, the referee secretly told himself that this time, he must wait until Sweden National Team is under control or the football passes the sideline before blowing the whistle to end the game, so as not to cause unnecessary disputes.
Although I said that there was nothing wrong with the ball in the first half, if I insist on deducting the details, Spain National Team still has something to say.
Players from both sides began to push each other in the penalty area, preparing to compete for the high-altitude ball. Some people kept falling, and naturally they were Spain National Team players. I hope the referee can award a penalty kick.
But the referee would not be fooled by such a poor performance. He had a burning gaze and a wise look on his face.
But in Sweden National Team's penalty area where there are so many people, Spain National Team's players can't get any upper hand at all.
This ball, even the opponent's goalkeeper rushed out of the small penalty area, trying to jump up and hold the ball in his hands.
After all, with the goalkeeper's height of 1.95cm and his wingspan, there is no one on the entire court who can control the high-altitude ball better than him.
But because there were so many people competing for the header, the goalkeeper simply couldn't get it to where it landed.
The goalkeeper, who had made a reckless attack, felt that it was a bit unsafe, so he could only jump up high and punch the football out of the penalty area with his right hand.
The referee's whistle has been put into his mouth, and the game whistle may be blown at any time.
At 92 minutes and 55 seconds, the football flew out of the Sweden National Team penalty area and flew to the right side of the field.
In this position, a player named Spain National Team appeared, but this player Spain National Team seemed to have passed by.
The football flew over Li Mingyu's head.
Li Mingyu ran all the way. When he rushed five or six meters in front of the penalty area, he found that the football flew high from the penalty area and landed behind him.
Ninety-two minutes and fifty-eight seconds.
The referee was about to blow the whistle to end the game, but when he saw Li Mingyu near the landing point of the football, his heart moved and he swallowed the whistle.
Boy, please start your show!
[Hey, the host uses "Ibrahimovic's fairy ball ability card (one-time use)", the location is perfect, the angle is perfect, the probability of scoring: extremely high!]
I saw Li Mingyu suddenly stopped, turned around, turned his back to the goal, faced the landing point of the football, jumped high, and made a beautiful upside-down golden hook.
About thirty meters away from the goal, Li Mingyu used a very handsome upside-down golden hook to kick the fallen football back to Sweden National Team's goal.
The football was like a guided missile, hitting Sweden National Team's goal from the air.
The entire Sweden National Team defense was stunned.
Seeing this ball, everyone in the stadium was stunned, especially Ibrahimovic who was standing on the sidelines waiting for the game to end.
Ibrahimovic feels like looking in the mirror, watching Li Mingyu's classic upside-down golden hook action on the court.
On November 14, 2012, in the match between Sweden National Team and England National Team, at the 91st minute, Sweden National Team already led England National Team 3-2.
Faced with Sweden National Team's long pass from the backcourt, England National Team's goalkeeper Joe Hart rushed out of the penalty area and headed the ball out of the penalty area line, but it didn't hit the target.
Joe Hart didn't feel the danger was approaching and slowly backed away.
Who knew that Ibrahimovic did not stop the high-altitude ball and organize an attack again like a normal player, but like today's Li Mingyu, directly chased back towards the landing point of the football, and kicked the football with a shocking upside-down golden hook from 33 meters away, directly sending the football into the gate of England National Team.
At that time, Ibrahimovic was still in his prime, and his physical fitness was even better than it is now. When shown in slow motion, after Ibrahimovic flew into the air, his kick reached a height of more than two meters.
Witnessing this spectacle, BBC commentator and former England coach Graham Taylor couldn't help shouting, "He (Ibrahimovic) actually shot there! He had no right to do it! He had no right to shoot it like this! This is definitely the most beautiful goal I have ever seen in my life. I will always remember this game! Forever!" <The Guardian> also echoed, "99.9% of players would not choose to make such a shooting action in this area. They would not even think about it! This place is more than 30 meters away from the goal. Ibrahimovic is too domineering and confident!" <Daily Mail> warned fans with a hint of ridicule, "Do not imitate this shooting action at home!"
The then Sweden head coach E Rick-Hamlen seemed extremely calm. He said, "Whether it is training or official games, he can always make such actions that seem almost impossible for ordinary people to complete. Sometimes you even feel like you are watching others play a football game!"
At the FIFA award ceremony the next year, Ibrahimovic won the 2013 Puskás Award with this magic ball.
Li Mingyu actually scored almost exactly the same goal as Ibrahimovic.
Although this ball is a one-time card drawn by the system, Li Mingyu's physical fitness is also perfectly reflected in this ball.
The referee also waited for two seconds after Li Mingyu scored the goal before making a gesture validating the goal.
At 2:3, Spain National Team, who was playing away from home, actually defeated Sweden at the last moment!
