Chapter 199: Own goal and penalty kick (Third update, please vote for me!)
After equalizing the score, the morale of the Naples team was high, and they had to work hard to take the lead.
On the other hand, AC Milan still controls the situation on the field. Inter Milan does not have a good chance. Inter Milan fans have begun to vent their dissatisfaction to coach Leonardo with boos, while AC Milan is still thanking Leon. Nado's undercover banner rubs salt into the wounds of Inter Milan fans.
Allegri was not happy, because Naples equalized the score, and his morale was high, and there was the possibility of continuing to score goals. If Naples wins, it will be meaningless for AC Milan to win ten more goals.
For this reason, he was a little depressed and could only comfort himself with the excuse of "winning is better than losing."

There was a jubilant atmosphere at the San Paolo Stadium, but this atmosphere did not last long.
Because just six minutes later, they suffered a blow.
"Ah...ah...ah! Lazio is ahead again! This time the goal was...it was Ranocchia! He scored an own goal! What a tragedy! Napoli had just tied the score, but fell behind again , and the reason why they fell behind actually came from their own players..."
Ranocchia put his head in his hands and looked at the football in the goal with disbelief. Behind him, there were Lazio players cheering in ecstasy. In these six minutes, Naples attacked like a wave. They once thought that their goal was going to be breached again. Some people were even planning to accept the result... After all, this was Naples' home court, and Naples at the Sao Paulo Stadium was invincible.
But at this moment, Ranocchia gave Lazio players hope again with an own goal.
Lazio forward Zarate, who caused Ranocchia's own goal with his own shot, became the target of celebrations by his teammates. In fact, they wanted to hug Ranocchia... but it is estimated that in that case, it would first cause a big fight between the players of both sides on the court. fight……
Goalkeeper De Sanctis was a little depressed, but he still comforted Ranocchia who scored an own goal: "Don't be sad, mobile phone..."
Chen Yingxiong gave Ranokia the nickname "Mobile Phone". This nickname quickly spread within the team, and now everyone calls him that.
"I'm so damn unlucky..." Ranokia still couldn't let go.
"It's okay, mobile phone." Captain Paul Cannavaro also came up and patted him on the shoulder: "Believe in the heroes, even if we concede three goals, they will definitely be able to score more goals!"
※ ※ ※
Chen Yingxiong and Cassano stood in the center circle, waiting for the kick-off. They were also discussing Ranocchia's own goal.
"Unlucky mobile phone..." Chen Yingxiong shook his head and sighed.
"It's quite unlucky, but don't you think our team is even more unlucky? We managed to equalize the score, but were overtaken by the opponent in six minutes," Cassano said.
"Ah, it's okay, we can just equalize again. Lazio has been frightened by us!" Chen Yingxiong gave Cassano a thumbs-up: "Since we can get two goals back in two minutes, I think It doesn’t take long to get a goal back, right?”
※ ※ ※
Chen Yingxiong estimated that he was wrong this time. Ten minutes have passed, and Naples still has not equalized the score...
However, Allegri at the San Siro Stadium learned the latest news.
"Own goal?" Allegri admitted that he wanted to laugh when he heard the news because he had a feeling that "this is all so fucking ridiculous."
Napoli fell behind by two goals and equalized within two minutes. However, six minutes later they were defeated by an own goal...
Tassotti smiled at Allegri and said: "It seems that God wants AC Milan to be number one."
Allegri didn't answer, just smile at this time.
※ ※ ※
"It's been almost eighty minutes, and Napoli still hasn't been able to equalize the score. After taking the lead with an own goal, Lazio suddenly changed their strategy and they were determined to defend!"
The narrator's voice came from the TV. Outside the TV, Naples fans were making an "umbrella" gesture towards the screen - placing their right hand at the elbow of their left hand and waving their left arm bent. This is an insulting gesture commonly used in southern Europe, like giving the middle finger. The same - "Coward of Rome! Go back to your hometown!!"
The angry comments from these fans cannot help change the situation on the field.
Lazio still stayed in its own half, denying Napoli a chance to score.

Arshavin decided to do it himself and passed the ball to Chen Yingxiong. There were people everywhere in the penalty area, which was too difficult.
He pretended to play a one-two with Hamsik, but suddenly turned around and rushed into the penalty area with the ball.
Lazio's defenders were caught off guard and allowed him to slip inside. At this time, Lazio defender Biaava came over with a diagonal stab and made a tackle with his feet.
But his movement was a beat slow. Arshavin kicked the football out first, and then Biała kicked Arshavin's heel without any suspense. Arshavin lost his balance and fell to the ground in the penalty area. It's rolling inside...
"Penalty kick!" the commentator shouted.
"Penalty kick!" The Naples fans in the stands jumped up from their seats as if they were electrocuted, and then waved to the court.
"Penalty kick!" Naples fans in front of the TV pointed at the TV and shouted.
The referee heard their shouts. He blew the whistle to stop the game, ran decisively towards the penalty area, and pointed his finger at... the penalty spot!
When he blew the whistle, everyone's eyes turned to him like the camera lens, and everyone focused their eyes firmly on his hands. The referee's gestures would tell everyone whether this was a Napoli penalty kick or a penalty kick. Arshavin's dive.
Now seeing him pointing his finger towards the penalty spot, the Napoli fans cheered.
Chen Yingxiong and Cassano raised their arms and cheered for the penalty kick.
Arshavin also rolled around on the ground and got up - the opponent only kicked his heel, which was not serious under the tight wrapping of the sneakers. He cheered and was quickly hugged by his teammates.
"Eighty-second minute! Napoli gets a penalty! A crucial penalty!"
the narrator yelled with excitement.
The cheers from the stands at the Stadio San Paolo were deafening.
※ ※ ※
Naples' current top penalty taker is Hamsik, but today Hamsik had a different idea. He stopped Chen Yingxiong who was about to exit the penalty area: "Hey, hero."
Chen Yingxiong looked at him doubtfully.
"Will you take this penalty kick?" Hamsik pointed to the football on the ground and said to Chen Yingxiong.
Everyone knows that Chen Yingxiong is pursuing the league's top scorer. In fact, there is no suspense for Chen Yingxiong to win the top scorer now. However, they all hope that Chen Yingxiong can score more goals and write new history.
That's why Hamsik gave the penalty kick to Chen Yingxiong.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong shook his head: "Thank you, Marek. But I don't take penalty kicks."
"Why?" Hamsik frowned and asked.
"Because it's too easy to score a penalty kick, I don't think it's interesting." Chen Yingxiong shrugged: "I'll leave the easy one to you, Marek, hahaha!"
He backed away with a smile.
Hamsik rolled his eyes: "Hey!"
He stopped paying attention to Chen Yingxiong, placed the football, and stepped back to wait for the referee's whistle.
In the end, Hamsik converted the penalty kick and helped the team equalize the score again.
When celebrating the goal, Ranocchia was particularly excited because Hamsik's penalty somewhat offset his previous own goal.
But then he thought about it and couldn't get excited anymore - if it hadn't been for my own goal, wouldn't we be in the lead now?
Just when he was feeling depressed, a hand put on his shoulder: "Don't worry, cell phone. There are still eight minutes left, we can still score!"
The speaker is Chen Yingxiong!
He smiled at Ranokia.

Lazio's players didn't take the goal too seriously. Because even if they were equalized by a penalty kick, they would at least be able to take away one point from the Sao Paulo Stadium.
In such an away game, taking away one point is almost equal to victory.
There are eight minutes left in the game. If you focus on holding on, it will not be difficult to get this point.
However, the commentator couldn't help complaining: "Lazio was equalized, but I have to say that they are really lucky... because Lazio only scored two goals in this game, while Naples scored four goals, but the current score is It’s a 3:3 draw…”
※ ※ ※
"It was 3:3 over there, and Naples used a penalty kick to equalize the score." Tassotti dutifully informed the head coach of the real-time score of another stadium.
"A draw? That's fine..." Allegri was thinking in his mind. One point for Naples means 67 points. AC Milan will also have 67 points after winning this game. Both sides have the same points. This is better than always. Two points behind. Both sides have the same points, and there will be a fight at the end.
He does not expect Lazio to beat Naples away from home. Fortunately, there is not much time left in the game, otherwise, he is really worried about whether Lazio can withstand Naples's stormy offensive.
As for his own side, winning against Inter Milan is a matter of no doubt... He doesn't need to worry at all.
※ ※ ※
After the game restarted, Napoli continued to launch a fierce attack on Lazio's goal. Anyway, now Lazio has shrunk its defense and retreated to its own 30-meter area. Naples is not worried about what kind of counterattack they will launch...
Just attack!
This game must be won. This was the thought of every Naples player who experienced the ups and downs of the eighty-plus minutes of the game.
If you can't win this way, that would be too bad.
We have been behind by two goals, we have equalized within two minutes, we have also experienced an own goal, and we have also received a penalty kick. Now... it is our turn to take the lead!
