The game time has entered injury time and is getting closer to the end of the game, but Real Madrid is not satisfied with a draw and is still attacking.
In the 91st minute of injury time, Ronaldo's long shot from outside the penalty area resulted in a corner kick, and Real Madrid got another chance to attack from a corner kick.
In addition to Casillas and Pepe, Ramos and Carvalho rushed into the penalty area to participate in the header. Marcelo also went to the outside of the penalty area, ready to grab the ball and shoot from a distance at any time.
Di Maria took a corner kick and there was chaos in the penalty area. Ronaldo jumped up on the small penalty area line, overpowered central defender Sergio Sanchez, and headed the ball into the goal.
The ball was very close and too fast, Caballero had no way of saving it. He could only wave his hands subconsciously, but caught nothing.
Caballero felt a chill in his heart, but then he heard the sound of the ball hitting the crossbar, just like Casillas.
However, after Ronaldo's header hit the crossbar, it did not fall to the ground, but bounced back into the penalty area, passed over the heads of Ronaldo and Sanchez, and flew into the large penalty area.
Central defender Demichelis and defensive midfielder Camacho rushed towards the ball at the same time, ready to clear it with their feet.
But Lu Wenbin was faster than them.
Lu Wenbin turned around and blocked Demichelis, then opened his arms to block Camacho, leaned his body back, jumped up, and made an overhead kick.
Demichelis jumped up and tried to head the ball away, but missed.
The ball passed Demichelis' ear and flew towards the goal.
The Real Madrid fans in the stands have already stood up, ready to cheer for the goal.
As a result, Caballero made a world-class save this time. He jumped and stretched out his hand almost subconsciously. The ball bounced on his fingertips, then passed the crossbar and fell into the net above the crossbar.
Caballero blocked Lu Wenbin's wonderful overhead kick and Real Madrid continued to take corner kicks.
After completing the overhead kick, Lu Wenbin felt that the ball had good power, speed and angle, and should have hit the goal frame.
Unexpectedly, Caballero saved the ball.
Seeing Di Maria preparing to take another corner kick, Lu Wenbin paused, then left the penalty area, ran over and said to Di Maria: "I'll take it."
Di Maria knew that Lu Wenbin was about to shoot directly again.
In normal training, Lu Wenbin has the experience of directly scoring a corner kick. Although he has never scored in a game, Di Maria knows that Lu Wenbin has the ability to do so.
Therefore, Di Maria did not waste any time, left the penalty spot, and came to the outside of the penalty area, ready to grab the ball and take a long shot if he had the chance.
Seeing Lu Wenbin walk towards the corner area and replace Di Maria to prepare for the corner kick, many commentators shook their heads and commented:
"I don't know what's wrong with Lu Wenbin recently. He's more keen on taking corner kicks. He wasn't like this before."
"And the corner kicks he took were all relatively close to the goal, as if he wanted to shoot directly at the goal."
"Goal from a corner kick? That's too much of a test of footwork. And footwork isn't the most important thing. Luck is the most important thing."
"Yes, if Lu Wenbin wants to score directly from a corner kick, he might as well stay in the penalty area and fight for a header. His physique, jumping ability, and heading skills are all outstanding."
"I think this corner kick opportunity is over. I'm afraid Lu Wenbin's corner kick will be directly confiscated by goalkeeper Caballero."
Amid everyone's discussions, Lu Wenbin on the court did not give up the idea of shooting at a zero-degree angle.
He tried it in training, and when there was no goalkeeper, he was able to score seven or eight out of ten corner kicks.
With the goalkeeper and defender guarding the two goal posts, he was able to score three or four penalties.
This goal rate is actually higher than the goal rate for headers in the penalty area.
The corner kick in the previous game didn't go in. It can only be said that he was unlucky, not because there was a problem with Lu Wenbin's zero-degree angle skill.
Anyway, the competition is almost over, so Lu Wenbin still wants to give it a try.
Malaga goalkeeper Caballero naturally also knew that Lu Wenbin was keen on taking corner kicks in the last two games and always seemed to want to shoot directly.
Therefore, Caballero did not stand outside the goal line, but stepped on the goal line, staring at Lu Wenbin nervously.
There are two Malaga players in front of and behind the goal, who can use headers to clear the ball in case the goalkeeper fails to save the ball in time.
Lu Wenbin observed Caballero's position and found that he was standing a little forward.
Then, there are more opportunities to play at the back point.
If the ball could hit a theoretical blind spot, it would be too late for Caballero to retreat, and the defender at the back post would not be able to reach it even if he jumped up since he couldn't use his hands.
It depends on whether Lu Wenbin can hit the ball from that angle.
After the referee dealt with the pushing and shoving in the penalty area between the two sides and signaled Lu Wenbin that he could take the free throw, Lu Wenbin started running from the billboard, and after a few steps he kicked the ball and made an inward spin.
The ball first flew towards the penalty area, causing players from both sides in the penalty area to push and scramble for position, and people fell to the ground.
However, the ball drew an arc and spun into the goal.
Caballero, who was well prepared, found that the ball was flying towards the back point, so he retreated and observed, trying to kick the ball out.
As a result, he suddenly realized that the ball was going too fast and he had no time to retreat to the back point, and the ball was about to fall into the goal.
There was no time to retreat, so Caballero could only jump up halfway and try his best to reach the ball.
But the ball, which had not yet completely fallen to the ground, passed over his fingertips and fell to the back of the goal.
Caballero turned his head and saw that Eliseu, who was guarding the back post, had jumped up and stretched his neck to try to head the ball out.
But the angle of Lu Wenbin's shot was too tricky, almost a theoretical blind spot.
The ball went over Eliseu's head and fell into the goal at the intersection of the crossbar and the back post.
All of a sudden, all the commentators were shocked:
“Goooooooooooooooooooooooal…”
"The ball goes in, the ball goes in, at a zero-degree angle, Lu Wenbin scored a corner kick and shot directly at the goal!"
"Oh my god, a zero-degree shot, Lu Wenbin shot directly from the corner kick, and it went in!"
"Lu Wenbin completed his hat trick with a direct goal from a corner kick. Real Madrid leads Malaga 3-2 away from home and the game is almost over."
"Real Madrid is about to create the longest unbeaten record in the top five European leagues, 59 La Liga games."
Lu Wenbin's zero-degree shot instantly shocked the world, and countless people admired Lu Wenbin.
Direct goals from corner kicks have happened in football, but on such an important occasion, in a game that attracted worldwide attention and in which Real Madrid was about to create a new record for the longest unbeaten streak in the top five leagues, Lu Wenbin's goal was naturally of extraordinary significance.
Even some Malaga fans gave Lu Wenbin an applause of admiration, and the Real Madrid players pressed Lu Wenbin to the ground and celebrated by excitedly ravaging him.
This goal by Lu Wenbin was also the last goal of the game.
After 4 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.
After playing two games in a row for a week, Real Madrid was exhausted and fell behind 0-2 to Malaga away from home. However, Lu Wenbin scored three goals to complete a major reversal and beat Malaga 3-2, winning the last game of 2012, which was also Real Madrid's 59th unbeaten game across three seasons.
As a result, Real Madrid surpassed AC Milan's 58 unbeaten games and set a new record for the longest unbeaten streak in the top five European leagues with 59 unbeaten games.
The Galaxy Battleship shines even brighter.
The zero-degree shot that Lu Wenbin scored in the injury time of the game also became the first zero-degree shot in his career. It was repeatedly broadcast by TV stations in various countries and watched by fans, gaining countless loyal fans.
