122:42, it was more than a month ago when 24-year-old French striker Londar Colo Muvani burst into the Argentine penalty area and volleyed.
With Otamendi falling to the ground and the ball falling just in time, a script of a killer hero suddenly fell in front of the striker who was playing France's fourth division with Nantes B two years ago - "I told myself I had to get up and shoot. ”
It wasn't a bad volley, it was just that Moisy's opponent was Emiliano Martinez, who had successfully predicted it from his position. Like Casillas in 2010, the helpless Martinez used his left leg to change the script for the World Cup final. In the end, Muvani, who played the role of the substitute, had to be reduced to the background of the cheers of the Argentines.
"Maybe I could have made other choices at that moment," Muvaney recalls, "like playing a pick shot or passing the ball to Mbappe on the left unguarded." But to be honest, I didn't see his place. It's only when you review it afterwards that you think of other possibilities, but it's too late. For me, that moment was like a crow in my throat and will live forever. ”
After the World Cup in Qatar, Movani looked back at that 122 minutes and 42 seconds more than once, saying, "I'm still looking back at that shot, and I really remember it." ”

Fortunately, the regrets about the World Cup final did not turn into lingering demons, and as Moisny put on the Eintracht frankfurt shirt again, the eyes of the European giants are attracted to him.
On 4 February in the round of 4 of the Bundesliga, Eintracht Frankfurt beat Hertha Berlin 3-0 at home, and Moisny scored twice to win the game, marking his first consecutive league goal this season. Three days later, in the German Cup 1/8 final, Eintracht Frankfurt eliminated Darmstadt 4-2, and Movani doubled again and provided an assist, and with his boost, the unbeaten momentum of the "Eagles" also accumulated to nine games.
Compared with the frequent achievement of teammates at the beginning of the season, and even leading the Bundesliga assist list with 10 assists, Muvani, who has seen big scenes in the World Cup, has shown more goalscorer qualities in the past half month. Away to Freiburg, the French center calmly took the ball in the box, dodged, and shot low through the net; Against Bayern Munich, he used the change of pace to finish off at Palmecano and blast with a perfect heads-up; In the home victory over Hertha Berlin, precise "reading" and astute movement contributed to an easy counter-offside stab.
Of course, goals and assists are only part of Mouyny's excellent performance, and his comprehensive offensive and defensive ability is the basis for his rapid breakthrough. In short, the 1.87-meter-tall French striker is not a traditional center forward, and he has the characteristics of following the trend in different scenarios. And, just two sets of data comparing with Phil Kruger (leading the Bundesliga top scorers with 13 goals) are obvious enough: sprints, Moissy 460, Phil Kruger 281; High-intensity running, 1073 vs 977. Many times, Movani can get rid of the opponent's close focus in midfield, form a linkage with his teammates, and rush into the attacking three zone in the simplest and fastest way. His midfield rivalry and speed have sustained Eintracht Frankfurt's offensive efficiency, and his statistics of creating fouls, winning confrontations and even successful tackles are among the best in the league.
Even if the Bundesliga debut season is not over, Muvani's immediate combat power and potential are visible to the naked eye, and the "quasi-double" league statistics of 9 goals and 10 assists in 18 appearances are enough to complete a rookie answer sheet with a full score. Combined with the Champions League and DFB-Pokal wins, Moisney's total so far this season is 14 goals and 12 assists in 28 games. Incidentally, of all the players who have made more than 18 appearances in the Bundesliga in the last 18 years, only two can play the dazzling stat of making more goals than appearances: Haaland, who has scored 77 goals in 67 games, and Moisny Muisny who has scored 19 goals in 18 games. Having said that, one has to tout Eintracht Frankfurt's signings, who brought the newly established French centre-forward to Germany last summer without spending a single transfer fee.
Speaking of which, before he got Eintracht Frankfurt's contract, Mouigny's football career was somewhat fragmented. Born in France, descended from the Democratic Republic of Congo, he tried out for a number of Italian clubs and French club Rennes during his youth training, but did not make the trip due to internal and external factors. He said he cried all night when he was 16 and "it was a feeling of broken dreams." It wasn't until with the help of his brother that Muvani seized the opportunity to go to Nantes for a tryout, and when he came hard, the professional contract was in hand.
Three years ago at this time, the 21-year-old Boulogne was still on loan at Boulogne thinking about how to end the goal drought, and for more than half a year, he could not find shooting boots in the Ligue Diga, and scoring goals became a big problem. The 100 or so spectators sitting in the stands at that time probably found it difficult to imagine that the big man wearing Boulogne's number 17 shirt had taken only three seasons to soar.
Two weeks later, Eintracht Frankfurt will face the first Champions League rematch in more than half a century, and it will be the first time that Moisny will be on the stage of the Champions League knockout stage.
