Watford players surrounded the referee and argued desperately.
But the referee was in an excellent position and could see clearly.
There was No problem with the penalty kick!
At this time, in the penalty area, his teammates excitedly helped Xia Xing up!
"Xia, you are amazing!"
"We are about to overtake them!"
"This is all your doing!"
Looking at the teammates surrounding him, Xia Xing still held the ball that he had protected when he fell. .
He looked at forward Nugent: "Man, can I discuss something with you?"
Nugent: "Of course! If you have any requirements, just tell me!"
Xia Xing: "Can you give me this penalty kick? "
Nugent: "This... OK!"
As the first penalty kicker on the field today, Nugent should take the penalty.
But now that Xia Xing has spoken, Nugent didn't refuse.
It seems that xia is planning to score twice today.
But he didn't expect that Xia Xing didn't take the penalty by himself, but stuffed the ball into Knockaert's arms.
"Man, this penalty kick is for you."
"Huh?"
Knockaert was stunned.
He didn't expect Xia Xing to hand the ball to him.
"I..." Knockaert frowned and whispered, "I'm not sure..."
As the top penalty kick taker last season, Knockaert actually said that he was not sure about taking a penalty.
But it is No wonder, after experiencing that tragic penalty defeat, anyone will have a mental shadow.
Xia Xing smiled and patted Knockaert on the shoulder: "Man, you can kick as you like, I believe you."
"But if we can't score, we won't be able to overtake the...."
"It doesn't matter! If you kick and you don't score, I'll pass the ball to you later and help you score!"
Looking at Xia Xing's confident eyes, Knockaert no longer hesitated.
If he is still being pretentious now, then he wouldn't be acting like a man.
Deep Breath!!!
Put the ball on the penalty spot and look at Almunia on the opposite side.
It was this guy who caused him to completely hit rock bottom last season.
Now, here we go again.
Another penalty.
Xia is right, I shouldn't have too much pressure.
Even if I miss the penalty, I will still score the another goal. There is no need to be so obsessed with penalty kicks!
Thinking of this, Knockaert slowly backed away and looked forward.
Run!!!
