Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 130

Sunderland replaced two people in a row, Henderson replaced Hyypia, Eriksson replaced captain Garner.The captain's armband was worn on Henderson's arm.

Hypia's physical fitness was poor, his position was improper, and he didn't return to the defense in time. When he faced the head coach Anton when he was off the field, his face was full of shame.Anton opened his right arm and hugged Hypia, and whispered something in his ear.As if a tense spring had been relaxed, Hyypia finally showed a smile on his face, and replied something, returned to the bench by himself, and high-fived his teammates one by one.

On the field, Henderson played Hyypia's position just now, and there was still a little space between him and Hummels, as if he didn't realize that Arshavin's goal just now was that the opponent took advantage of this gap to score. of.

After Eriksson came on the field, Royce's position naturally moved forward, but Shaqiri shrank back instead, looking like a midfielder.Sunderland's frontcourt has returned to the classic trident combination "Rovame".

"Sunderland is about to step up their offense. The home game was tied. That young and energetic head coach must be dissatisfied."

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Andy Gray commented so.Since he failed to guess the score correctly, he naturally didn't want his partner to guess the score correctly.

"Just wait and see!" Richard Keys was inexplicably confident in Arsenal's defense.

After 2 minutes, Keith shouted: "Not good! Watch out for the 'Tsar' to get the ball!"

Andy Gray clenched his fists excitedly: "Your Majesty Arshavin, charge forward!"

The live broadcast director was at a loss and had to remind the two "famous mouths" through earphones: Which side are you on?

Little did he know that Richard Keys predicted 2 to 2 in advance, and he just wanted not to score.Andy Gray hopes that his partner will be deflated. No matter which side scores, as long as a goal is scored, he can gloat.

Director: Are these two really a "partner"?

The situation on the court changed rapidly, and Keith yelled: "Henderson, great job!" On the court, Henderson made a beautiful interception and firmly held the ball in his hands. Calmly glanced at the position of his teammates, and sent the ball under his feet.

Arshavin, who was already sprinting at a high speed, slowed down at this moment—he originally wanted to repeat the old trick and pass through the gap in front of Hummels.As long as he breaks through this layer of defense, with his shooting skills, Pickford is useless, and Sunderland's goal is only waiting to be shot through.

The space in front of Hummels remains the same, but the person has changed.Hyypia had no time to cover the gap, and now it is replaced by the energetic Henderson, and the two ends of the defense line seem to fit together at once.Henderson intercepted it beautifully, Arshavin's rhythm was abruptly interrupted, and there was applause from the stands.

Hyypia sat on the bench and applauded Henderson with mixed feelings: his generation is getting old, but the younger generation has stood up.Assistant coach Russell also reached out and patted Hyypia's shoulder at the moment: "You taught it!"

This interception technique was indeed taught by Hyypia to the whole team.Russell praised Hyypia, which made the veteran feel more comfortable.

At this time, Arsenal was ready to make another substitution.

"Professor is ready to break the tie." Richard Keys said happily.

Depending on the situation, the professor intends to replace Cesc Fabregas and put on a central defender to strengthen the defense.After all, Arsenal are only playing with ten players now.

It is acceptable to be able to draw with the opponent in the away game and score one point.Although the opponent is a newly promoted horse, the opponent's current ranking is higher than Arsenal.

"Sunderland has one substitution left, let's see what Anton will do. I say, Arsenal are now defending in the penalty area, Anton simply replaces 'Grand Guy' Crouch ——In that case, Arsenal's defenders will only be able to stack Arhats..." Gray came up with bad ideas from the side.

Keith imagined it out of thin air: the back line of Arhats... The picture is too beautiful to watch!

But will Anton really replace Crouch?

Crouch has been sitting on the bench, watching the game so intently that no one even informed him to warm up.

"Why? It's obvious that the last goal of 'Gao Guy' in the last game was superb. He used all the throw-ins as corner kicks, and the opponent's defense was hard to defend!" Gray couldn't understand Anton's decision.

He didn't expect that the only one in the Sunderland team who can throw that kind of ultra-long throw-in is Colbeck, and Crouch is the best candidate to cooperate with him.And now, Sunderland has only one substitution left.

"Rich second generation? What's the situation?" Gray was stunned.

The warm-up has been completed, and the person standing next to the fourth official is none other than Flanagan, the richest second-generation player in the Premier League.Depending on the situation, he is going to replace Horton, a defender on the right.

But Keith laughed hahahaha: "He who knows the current affairs is a hero, and Sunderland will be even."

Finally it was his turn to use the sentences from the cheat sheet.

If both sides keep a tie, wouldn't it just be the 2-2 draw predicted by Keith before the game?

Keith: I'm so happy that the prediction is right!

The fans in the Stadium of Light also did not quite understand Anton's intention of this substitution.Someone rushed into the arena and shouted: "Anton, we want a victory!"

Richard Keith shook his head pretentiously when he heard it: "Anton is not God after all. You must know that on the green field, only God can decide the victory. Anton is just a mortal."

Soon Sunderland also completed the substitution.

The time has come to the 81st minute, and the scoreboard at the Stadium of Light is still 2-2.

Recalling Messi's lightning goal at the beginning of the game, Sunderland fans really don't feel very comfortable now: a bit of a feeling of "waking up early and catching up late", obviously having a dream start, Obviously Royce's "banana ball" scored so beautifully-but in the end, he was forced to accept a draw at home?

The key coach Anton seems to have accepted the result of this draw.

After the "rich second generation" Flanagan came on the field, he was catching up with Sunderland's goal kick.He reached for the ball and Pickford threw him a handball.

Flanagan dribbled the ball, and an empty and flat "corridor" appeared on the right - at this time Arsenal's defense had shrunk quite tightly, and all players retreated to their own half.But because of one less player, Arsenal's left is a bit empty.

"Jon, go!" There was an alternative cry in the Stadium of Light-the five thousand season tickets snapped up by the Flanagan Group earlier played a role. At this time, no matter what the Sunderland fans thought, seeing their "Prince Lord" came on stage, there were always thousands of voices cheering for him.

Sunderland's momentum suddenly became stronger.

The little players running on the field immediately gained a lot of confidence.Although Flanagan failed to start a few games, his skill rate is above average in the team.Once the confidence was raised at this time, Flanagan took the ball steadily, and with a fake move, he passed the Arsenal player defending him——

What?The person he passed turned out to be the opponent's captain Van Persie?

Flanagan didn't expect that much at all, the ball was still at his feet, and the little player was relieved until Eriksson came to meet and Flanagan passed the ball.

Flanagan tore a hole in Arsenal's defense on the left, but Koscielny's big-footed clearance at the edge of the penalty area still ruined the attack.Several Sunderland players looked at each other: "Come again!"

A throw-in was thrown in, and Sunderland repeated the old trick, continuing to attack Flanagan from the right. Road, Shaqiri made a long pass, and then passed the ball back to the right.

Relying on his abundant physical strength, Flanagan continued to attack. Although he hadn't made any achievements, it was endless and endless, and the Arsenal players were tired of it.But they just didn't dare to spread all the defenders on the left to the right.

In the last few minutes of a football game, it often turns into a double battle of physical fitness and psychology, and the choice of offensive method is a game.

However, the time has come to the 90th minute, and the fourth official showed the stoppage time: 5 minutes.The time left for Sunderland is only 5 minutes.

"If Sunderland still insists on going to the right, I think the game will be over 2-2." Richard Keith asserted.

Andy Gray: "How do you know they don't suddenly turn to the left? I've heard that a sudden change of pace can drive a defense crazy..."

At this moment, Flanagan got the ball again, stopped at his feet for a moment, suddenly kicked a big foot, the ball crossed an arc, and crossed the half to find Vardy on the left.Flanagan's feet are balanced, and the long pass with his right foot is more accurate. This time he made a contribution with his right foot, and Vardy unloaded the ball steadily.

"Coming!" Gray and Keith shouted at the same time.

The players of the visiting team seemed to hear the sound of their boots landing, and Arsenal's defenders on the right all became nervous.

Who knew that Vardy swung his foot and passed the ball back to the right——

Who says change can drive a defense crazy?The same will be the same.

Arsenal's players are really crazy, and the formation has begun to loosen.Professor Wenger waved loudly on the sidelines, when most players began to retract into the penalty area.There are people everywhere in the penalty area, but generally they tend to lean more towards their own right.

But this time it was no longer Flanagan who took the ball for Sunderland. The "rich second generation" unexpectedly gave up his position this time. It was none other than Royce who stopped the ball.

After Royce got the ball, he didn't seem to even look at it, and raised his left foot and volleyed hard.The ball went straight into the penalty area from between the men.

As the saying goes: great efforts produce miracles.

Hearing a "cha", Almunia's sight was blocked, the save was too late, and the ball crashed into the net.

In the live broadcast room, Andy Gray jumped onto the chair excitedly, clenched his fists and shouted: "Lore, lore!"

Richard Keys lay on the table wearily, and Sunderland's lore at the last moment made his pre-match prediction finally come to nothing.Not only that, his partner still taunted in his ear: "See, it's not God, it's mortals who change the outcome of the game, all of us mortals!"

There was a "boom" in the Stadium of Light.

——I haven’t seen such a wonderful lore for a long time.

Royce, who scored the lore goal, was also very excited. He took off his jersey again, held it in his hands and danced vigorously towards the Sunderland stands. Immediately, the Stadium of Light was completely boiled——

The female fan who typed out the words "Marco We Love You" earlier was so happy that she was about to faint.

The referee on duty, bald Webber, immediately generously presented Royce with a yellow card as a souvenir of the lore.

The author has something to say: the end of this chapter is a little detoured, everyone just needs to remember that Sunderland's right = Arsenal's left, and vice versa.

My goodness, Torres retired. . .Does time really fly so fast?
