Chapter 385 A Tragic Ending

Watching Pellegrini, in peak form, dribble the ball into the penalty area with impunity, Li Yanqing's heart was in his throat.

Their own players had tried their best to stop them, but they were too exhausted to stop the opponent.

He doesn't want to play in overtime!

Pellegrini is off the charts! If they get tied and the game goes into extra time, Burton's chances of losing are very high!

Unless... someone else steps forward.

However, rather than hoping for someone to have a breakout performance, it's better to hope that the players can hold onto the ball.

End the game immediately!

However, Hart's condition made Li Yanqing somewhat uneasy.

Both sides scored a lot of goals in this match, and the goalkeepers didn't play a significant role.

Most of the goals conceded are not the goalkeeper's fault.

But this time, both Li Yanqing and Joe Hart himself have a very strong desire.

We must hold on!

From Pellegrini's perspective, he had already dribbled the ball and charged towards Joe Hart.

In the first half, his teammates failed to keep up and were blocked behind by Burton players.

Raise your foot and unleash a powerful shot!

As an offensive player, this move was already ingrained in his mind.

Especially in this match, he was accurate with every shot, so much so that now he has full confidence even when he is very close to his opponent.

He's in excellent form, and no matter what Joe Hart does, he's confident he can change his shooting trajectory in time.

That's a sure goal!

However, when he was halfway up his leg, he realized something was wrong.

Joe Hart decisively chose to go down and block all of his shooting routes with his body!

Why would someone fall to the ground under these circumstances?

Not only Pellegrini, but even the coaches and spectators on the sidelines were taken aback by Hart's decision.

The distance was too close, and Hart himself was not in a "dropping the gate to attack" state.

If you fall down like that, you can block the shot, but if the opposing player doesn't pull back his foot, the goalkeeper will definitely take a heavy hit!

This move is not a foul at all, even when the ball is in play.

Therefore, goalkeepers who have suffered serious injuries have existed before...

Burton's assistant coach, Jens Lehmann, looked towards the goal with a somewhat serious expression.

That happened many years ago.

He made similar saves before he officially became a professional player.

It was a game that nobody cared about, but it was very important to him.

As a result, he almost had to give up his beloved football.

Fortunately, he was still very young at the time, and after a period of recovery, there were no serious consequences.

Hart is different; he's already in his thirties!

Taking a kick like that would definitely end his career.

But he couldn't stop Hart from doing so; both sides were too eager to win the game!

He could only hope that Pellegrini would back down, because he had no chance of scoring anymore...

As for Pellegrini on the field, he clearly had no intention of giving up his last chance. He tried his best to lift the ball up and give it a slight curve.

Maybe they can get the damn ball around that reckless goalkeeper and give the team a chance to go into extra time.

But just as Lehmann had thought, he had no chance of scoring a goal.

"boom!"

The kick slammed solidly into the ball, and with tremendous force, landed on Hart's chest.

Joe Hart, who hadn't fully landed, was kicked backward several times by Pellegrini's powerful kick before coming to a stop!

But Joe Hart, who had just suffered a heavy blow, now had a bright smile on his face.

He held the ball tightly to his chest...

"Team doctor!"

Li Yanqing didn't even wait for the referee's instructions and directly called his team doctor onto the field.

That's not important anymore. The game is already overtime, and if the referee doesn't blow the final whistle, he'll definitely file a complaint.

As expected, the referee did not hesitate for long and directly announced the final result of the match.

"Won!"

Burton's fans were the first to cheer. They hadn't forgotten about Hart's potential injury, but for now, they could celebrate this hard-won victory.

Burton~

Burton~

"Wow..."

As for the Roma fans who traveled from afar, they had no choice but to accept the defeat.

But the team performed exceptionally well, and they can leave with their heads held high.

No one mentioned the shot in the final moments.

After all, neither team had any way out...

After the match, Roma's head coach Paulo Fonseca was unable to locate Burton's head coach, Li Yanqing.

He had originally planned to congratulate the other party and encourage Burton on his championship win.

He would have found it very difficult to accept the defeat if he hadn't lost to the champion.

However, as soon as the match ended, Li Yanqing disappeared, and Quinn attended the post-match press conference in his place.

He is very unhappy right now.

In one match, Ibrahimovic and Joe Hart were both injured.

Ibrahimovic is doing better, there's nothing seriously wrong, he just needs some rest.

However, Hart...

The team doctor told him that the problem was definitely serious.

The specific results will be determined after the hospital completes its examination, but it is certain that he will miss the rest of the season.

"Jens! What brings you here? Someone needs to stay at the club..."

At the hospital, Li Yanqing saw Lyman, who had also arrived very quickly.

Normally, if a player brings himself to the hospital, he will stay with the team to handle other matters.

It was a bit unexpected.

"Don't worry, nothing serious is happening there."

"The players are already getting massages, so nothing bad will happen."

"I've come to check on the wounded."

Li Yanqing didn't say much, just nodded silently, and then told him what the team doctor had said.

"I suspect the situation is more serious than they're saying."

"Given the circumstances, Pellegrini wouldn't have held back."

"Even though there's a ball between us, it must feel terrible."

"Poor Hart, he'll hardly even have a chance to get revenge..."

Lehmann's most notable characteristic when he played football was his violent temper.

Even though he has toned down his behavior after becoming a coach, he is still a guy who enjoys getting revenge at heart.

The injury itself wasn't a big deal, but the lack of a chance to get revenge was something he found hard to accept.

"Yes, we'll probably never see Rome again."

"If we can win the championship this time."

Li Yanqing shrugged. With this championship win, they'll be heading to the Champions League next year. Given Roma's current performance, they'll definitely remain in the Europa League.

Of course, the premise is winning the championship.

They still have two more games to play, and the final result is still uncertain.

Hearing Li Yanqing's uncertain tone, Lyman unusually lost his temper.

"Of course we'll win!"

"The players have started betting their entire careers!"

"Li, if you're not confident in winning the championship, then give me the job of head coach!"

"I will definitely bring the championship trophy back!"
