Chapter 689 Pjanic’S Long Shot! A Miracle Occurs!
🕑 Added 2025-04-23 10:20:14 +0000 UTCHe was very quick with the ball,
instantly drawing the attention of Juventus defender Chiellini.
Chiellini was not a player known for his speed.
So, when he faced Pedro, it made him uncomfortable.
Pedro stepped on the ball, performed a quick feint, and suddenly accelerated.
His way of breaking free was simple—just charge forward.
Chiellini was left behind in an instant.
At the critical moment, Chiellini’s reliable teammate Benatia appeared in front of Pedro
and pulled off a brilliant tackle to disrupt his advance!
But that didn’t mean Chelsea’s attack had failed.
Because once again, the ball landed at Su Luo’s feet.
Compared to Pedro,
Su Luo had a much better sense of the overall situation.
He didn’t try to force another dribble.
Instead, he chose to pass.
A scalpel-like through ball split the Juventus defense and found Lukaku inside the penalty area.
This was a golden opportunity.
Lukaku timed his run perfectly and beat the offside trap,
getting a one-on-one chance against Juventus goalkeeper Buffon.
In key moments like this, you can always count on the veterans.
Just as Lukaku was about to take his shot,
Buffon rushed out and used his body to block it!
A world-class save.
The score remained 4–2.
The veteran Buffon refused to let Chelsea widen the gap.
Still, this attack showed something important.
Once Juventus committed to an all-out offense,
Chelsea would always have a chance to hit back on the counter.
So, the pressure was immense.
But no matter what,
time was running out for Juventus.
If they wanted to reach the Champions League quarter-finals,
they had to give it everything they had!
On the sidelines,
Coach Allegri was shouting non-stop.
“Attack!!”
“Go all in on the attack!!”
“Don’t think too much—just shoot!”
Allegri remained clear-headed.
He knew that now, the only option was to attack.
Juventus had to score.
Soon after,
Juventus’ offense once again threatened Chelsea’s penalty area.
This time, it was Cuadrado’s turn to make a breakthrough.
Facing tight defense from Marcos Alonso,
Cuadrado kept it simple—pure speed!
He gritted his teeth and sprinted,
trying to shake off Alonso’s interference with sheer pace.
But unfortunately for him,
Marcos Alonso had too much defensive experience.
After some intense physical contact,
Cuadrado completely lost his momentum.
With no other choice,
he quickly passed the ball to Matuidi in the middle.
Matuidi then passed it to Pjanic.
Seeing the opportunity,
Pjanic unleashed a thunderous long shot straight toward Chelsea’s goal!
An unbelievable strike!
The ball rocketed past Courtois like a missile—unstoppable!
Finally—
a miracle happened.
No one had expected the Juventus midfielder to shoot from that range.
The ball soared like a cannonball into the back of the net.
It was so fast, Courtois couldn’t even react!
“!!!”
“Pjanic actually scored? What a beauty!”
At that moment,
every Chelsea player felt a wave of despair wash over them...
