Chapter 165 - Chapter 165: Resolving the Crisis.

An Shishi's clothes are still relatively simple.

When she first started university, her hair wasn't very long, but now it has grown longer, with the bangs trimmed neatly, and no makeup applied.

However, as the saying goes, makeup is just icing on the cake; good-looking people are still good-looking even without makeup.

Xu Xiuwen swept his gaze behind them, not seeing Cheng Lu's figure.

There was some disappointment in his heart, but also some relief.

If Cheng Lu had come and seen them being played to death by the computer science team in the second half, it wouldn't have looked good on his pride.

The brief halftime break ended, and it was time for the match to resume.

The players from the Management and Engineering Department on the field were shouting his name.

Xu Xiuwen quickly said, "I'm going on first."

Then he hung up the phone.

Xu Xiuwen quickly returned to Dong Jun's side, handed him the phone, and then ran towards the field at a trot.

As soon as the second half began, the ball possession belonged to the Management and Engineering Department. Yang Baishan and the others didn't dare to attack directly; they were just trying to waste time.

But because the forward had been replaced with the original goalkeeper, Wang Juncai, who was now in the attacking midfielder position, the gap between him and Xu Xiuwen was quite obvious, and several passes were almost intercepted by the opponents.

Later, the opponents realized the intentions of the Management and Engineering Department and intensified their pressing, quickly causing Wang Juncai to make a mistake.

Wang Juncai's foot shook, and the ball that was supposed to be passed to Shi Xiangming was overhit, rolling between Shi Xiangming and another computer science team player.

Shi Xiangming reacted a beat slower, and the ball was controlled by the computer science major teammate.

The opponent immediately passed it to a computer science major player.

The momentum shifted!

After gaining possession, the computer science majors immediately organized an attack.

Their cooperation was very skilled, and after a few passes, the ball crossed the midfield.

As a forward, Liu Liang kept pressuring the Management and Engineering Department's defense.

Yang Baishan shouted anxiously, "Brothers, keep an eye on them! Tackle!"

The Management and Engineering Department's players were all like mad dogs, chasing and tackling without regard for their lives.

There were hardly any players in the Management and Engineering Department who had played football seriously, but they were all holding on with a strong sense of unwillingness to lose.

After persevering for more than ten minutes, several defenders were unable to hold on any longer, and several of them were close to cramping up.

Yang Baishan called for a timeout in time and replaced all four defenders at once.

The new players who came on had never even touched a football before; they had only trained for a few hours at noon today, and they were completely clueless about playing football.

But no one expected them to play well. They were brought on because the defenders were unable to hold on any longer, and they hoped that their fresh energy would help defend against the computer science majors' fierce attacks.

However, reality was cruel.

The four defenders who were just substituted off had at least participated in a few training sessions, but the four who came on had never even touched a football. They couldn't tackle, they couldn't keep up with opponents, they were basically running around blindly on the field.

The 4-1-2 formation was everywhere, desperately trying to contain the situation, but human endurance was limited.

Their speed had already slowed down.

The computer science majors seized the opportunity to advance the ball through passing, and the ball soon reached Liu Liang's feet.

And at this moment, Liu Liang was standing in the penalty area in front of the goal!

There was only Xu Xiuwen between him and the goal!

Liu Liang was a key player in computer science, as well as the captain. His football skills were pretty good, just slightly inferior to Yang Baishan's.

This was his second scoring opportunity of the game.

As the captain of computer science team, he had no reason to miss twice!

Liu Liang was very confident; he seemed to have already seen the scene of the football entering the net.

At that moment, all the computer science majors in the stands were cheering enthusiastically, eagerly awaiting the moment when the ball would enter the net.

The Management and Engineering Department's players had their hearts in their throats.

Su Yanyan even clasped her hands in front of her chest in a praying posture!

From the moment Liu Liang received the ball, Xu Xiuwen's attention was completely focused on him.

He stared at every move of Liu Liang with wide eyes.

The opponent made a feint, raised his leg, and shot.

The speed was extremely fast!

But Xu Xiuwen still noticed the direction in which he kicked the ball!

His blood boiled in his body.

He pushed off with both legs, desperately diving towards the direction of the ball!

The lively football stands froze for a moment.

Xu Xiuwen blocked the ball!

The ball hit his hands, rebounded into the air, and then fell to the feet of the Management and Engineering Department's central defender.

Just as the central defender was about to pass the ball, a computer science major student rushed in from the side.

He was the right winger of the computer science team!

The guy aimed at the goal, and with all his strength, he kicked the ball.

Xu Xiuwen had just gotten up from the ground and saw the opponent winger raising his foot. He quickly judged the trajectory of the ball, and once again, he dove and blocked the ball.

This time, he successfully blocked the ball under his body.

Without hesitating to celebrate, Xu Xiuwen quickly grabbed the ball, stood up, and with a powerful kick, he sent the ball flying towards the opponent's half.

He resolved the crisis of this attack!

Two consecutive saves from the opponent's shots!

Everyone was amazed!

The stands were quiet for a few seconds, then suddenly erupted into loud cheers!

Even though they weren't students from the Management and Engineering Department, everyone cheered and shouted for Xu Xiuwen's brilliant performance.

The members of the Management and Engineering Department were so excited that they were almost in tears!

On the stands, Xiao Youran even directly hugged An Shishi, shouting excitedly, "Xiao Xu blocked it! Shishi, look, he blocked it!"

In this atmosphere, everyone couldn't help but be influenced by the excitement.

An Shishi didn't particularly like football, and she had never been exposed to it before. But at this moment, she was also a little excited, though not as much as Xiao Youran.

She turned to comfort Xiao Youran, "Youran, calm down."

Xiao Youran also realized that she was too excited.

She tried to calm herself down, chuckled, and her cheeks were slightly flushed.

Song Siyu, on the other hand, watched Xu Xiuwen on the field, silently contemplative, her thoughts unclear.

On the football field, the match continued.

Yang Baishan reacted as soon as Xu Xiuwen kicked the ball away, immediately turning around to chase after it.

His reaction speed was very fast, but there were two computer science major defenders, one in midfield and one in the computer science major's backcourt, both closer to the ball than Yang Baishan.

The ball once again fell to the feet of the computer science majors.

After regaining possession, the computer science majors made some adjustments and launched another attack.

Three minutes later, the ball once again reached Liu Liang's feet.

He dribbled past the Management and Engineering Department's defenders with just a feint, leaving them behind.

He found himself once again in the penalty area.

It was another 1v1 situation!

Liu Liang was bold; instead of shooting directly, he briefly paused the ball.

He glanced quickly at Xu Xiuwen.

At this moment, he had great admiration for Xu Xiuwen.

To save two consecutive shots was not something that could be achieved through luck alone.
