Drogba leapt forward, performing a less than graceful header reminiscent of a struggling old loach.
It was a bit like the strained efforts of a loach that could barely jump.
But it was enough.
The football shot into the net, directly hitting the inside of the side netting, and no matter how much Buffon extended his arms and legs, he couldn't possibly reach it.
"Beautiful! Maicon and Drogba have successfully connected!"
"Sporting Lisbon's tactics have paid off! If Ronaldo's goal was an accident, then Maicon's cross is exactly what Sporting Lisbon intended to deliver."
"Ibrahimovic's position is crucial—he alone is restraining Pesotto, Dai Weisi, and Ferrara! All Drogba needs to do is contend with Monteiro, and there's even a big gap between Monteiro and Ferrara to exploit."
"Two-nil! The roles of the two teams seem to have switched since their last encounter. Sporting Lisbon is dominating, while Juventus seems to have no hope of a comeback."
