Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 128

Sunderland goalkeeper Pickford sat down on the turf of the Stadium of Light, so angry that he wanted to curse——

The Catalan on the opposite side shot too trickily. He was concentrating on it at the time and tried his best to attack, but his fingertips didn't even touch the ball.In the Premier League, Pickford managed to maintain a record of zero seals in four games, and now it is gone, all of them are gone.

Whoa whoa whoa——

Fortunately, this freckled boy never knew what "discourage" or "depression" was. He got up from the ground, patted his gloves vigorously, and said to his teammates: "Boys, don't be discouraged, we will definitely win this game! "

Hypia must be responsible for Fabregas' goal just now. He returned to the defense a little slower, and Hypia is full of guilt at the moment.But at this moment, when he heard the goalkeeper who was half his age yelling so loudly, he immediately took a deep breath, turned his head and said to Hummels: "I will stand back a little later, it's up to you. "

Hummels and Hyypia have cooperated for a few games, and they have a tacit understanding. They immediately nodded and waved at the goalkeeper, indicating: You are right.

Pickford rekindled his fighting spirit, but took a peek at the bench: the substitute goalkeeper was still sitting well, and Anton didn't show any anger like he did in the last game.He saw the head coach's eyes slipping towards him, and he quickly collected his mind - Fabregas' goal sounded the alarm for him, this game will never be "easy", he has to play the rest Keep the goal during the game time.

The next game was stalemate and suffering.In the 29th minute, Vardy scored a goal for Sunderland, but was offside first, and the female lineman Marcy raised the flag, and Webber was blown off.The slow-motion replay shows that Vardy only went offside a little bit, to be precise, only one arm.

Vardy wanted to go to the bald Weber for a theory, but Anton stopped him with gestures.Anton's meaning: Respect the referee's penalty-after all, crossing an arm is also offside.

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Andy Gray took out a cheat sheet and read it in a straight voice: "In this game, Sunderland is really 'Success is also Marcie, and defeat is also Marcie'." The idiom prepared by a Sinology expert finally came in handy, "The referee made a good goal and then blown away another goal. Now neither Sunderland nor Arsenal can say anything."

Richard Keith hurriedly looked at his partner to see if Gray had something to say, accusing Marcie of being "unfriendly".

"But I think Sunderland's players are all gentlemen!" Keith pointed to the live broadcast.On the screen just now, Royce cut to the wing and was entangled with an Arsenal midfielder.The midfielder's name was Alexander Song, and his defensive actions were always dirty. With a subtle push, Royce immediately fell to the sidelines involuntarily, heading in the direction of Marcie.But Royce did his best to avoid Marcie, and he fell in front of the fence on the sidelines.

The place where Royce fell was full of home fans, and now the crowd was furious. They all booed Song, and those who had a bad temper began to curse.

Two caddies rushed up to help Royce up, and Royce shook his hand at them, indicating that he was fine.

Marci also raises the flag without saying a word, saying that Song has pushed someone for a foul.She could see everything clearly.

With referee Webber's whistle sounding, Sunderland got a free kick.Alexander Song got up resentfully, spat on the ground, glared at Royce, and then slowly retreated to defend.

Anton also frowned on the sidelines.Today Song's actions are very rough, and his attitude is also very bad. He looks like he is looking for trouble everywhere. His players need to pay more attention.

The smell of gunpowder on the field gradually became stronger.

The development on the field was not as Anton expected. In the 38th minute, the Arsenal player, Alexander Song, had a bright-soled tackle and directly tackled Messi.Messi rolled on the ground twice before stopping, sat up from the turf, looked innocent, and stretched out his hands to the referee.

Song was more active than Messi, the "sufferer", and had already rushed to Weber to pretend to be innocent.

Webber decided it was a foul, blew his whistle, and awarded Sunderland a free kick.But because Song touched the ball first, Weber only showed a yellow card.

Sunderland players are somewhat dissatisfied with this penalty: the tackle with bright soles, no matter whether the person or the ball is tackled first, it must be judged whether the offending player is good or malicious.Just now Song Lai was aggressive, with fierce eyes, and the direction of his feet was very close to Messi's ankle.Sunderland's players agreed that it was a flagrant foul.

If a malicious tackle with a bright sole is awarded, the referee shall show a red card.It's only the 38th minute, Song was sent off, and Arsenal's second half was dangerous.

I don't know if Weber is just thinking about it, or there is no clear line between "maliciousness" and "unintentional". In short, the bald referee insisted on his penalty, and Song only received a yellow card.But Weber also warned Song that if he made any dangerous moves, he would definitely be sent off.

This little turmoil on the field is temporarily over, but Sunderland fans remember Alexander Song.For the rest of the first half, as soon as Song got the ball, the Stadium of Light was booed all over the sky.

The Arsenal fans who came from afar suffered a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and today Song did not know what medicine he took wrongly, and fouled again and again.The Arsenal fans were not ashamed to boo back, even if they wanted to boo, they didn't know who to boo, so they had to be silent and endured until the intermission.

At the end of the first half, the two sides drew 1-1.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. The atmosphere on the field became more tense, and the confrontation between the two sides became more intense, accompanied by a lot of physical contact.Although Anton has taught his players to fight "smartly" and avoid injuries as much as possible, sometimes when the rhythm of the game comes up and the opponent makes a big move, the players are full of blood and don't want to suffer. This is something beyond our control.

Less than 10 minutes into the second half, the two teams have each received two yellow cards.Anton had to loudly remind his players on the sidelines to keep calm and focus on the game.Professor Wenger was also pacing up and down the sidelines. It seemed that the professor was also a little anxious, and he lost the command he used to have.

The turning point of the whole game occurred in the 56th minute.

Sunderland's attack was initiated directly from the goal kick. Pickford fired a big kick and the ball went directly to Royce.Royce judged the landing point extremely accurately, and took off facing the path of the ball, preparing to unload the ball with his chest——

At this moment, a spiked shoe protruded from the slanting stab. It was Alexander Song. He and Royce thought of it together and were about to intercept the ball. .By coincidence, Song stepped on Royce's chest.

The seemingly thin Royce was kicked and fell on the turf, even the collar of the jersey was torn.The teammates around him were all terrified. Before the ball went out of bounds, Sunderland had ignored the football. In the end, it was Arsenal's players who kicked the ball out of bounds.

There was a lot of shouting and cursing on the field, all Sunderland fans scolded the foul player.

Biansheng Song is a tough player by nature, but instead took the initiative to provoke, he stood under the stands and directly scolded the fans-everyone was spouting obscenities, and no one could hear anyone clearly anyway.

At this time, Sunderland's team doctor also rushed into the field with a medicine box on his back to check Royce's injury.Royce himself was sober and shook his hand to indicate that he was fine.But the team doctor got Anton's order, so he couldn't help but take Royce to the sidelines for inspection. Anyway, his jersey was also torn, and according to the rules, he had to change his jersey before he could play again.

Royce followed the team doctor to the sidelines, and Anton was already sweating on his forehead.He quickly asked: "Marco, how do you feel?"

Royce was kicked and rubbed by the spikes on the sole of the opponent's foot, leaving several bright red marks on his chest, which looked quite terrifying.The young man puffed his chest out at Anton: "Don't worry, coach, the recent strength training was not in vain."

Having been together day and night, Anton has a good understanding of Royce's physical condition. He knows that this young man is no longer the skinny young man he was when he first came to Sunderland. Hard training and a reasonable diet have made him much stronger. Very strong, although still looks a little thin on the outside.

"The opponent stopped at the last moment, and as soon as I realized it, I let go of my strength. It's okay, coach!" Royce was afraid that Anton would be worried, so he hurriedly comforted him.

Anton ignored him and asked the team doctor to complete all the checks. After confirming that everything was fine, he asked Royce to change the jersey.

On the field, Alexander Song, who was provoking and scolding the fans, received the second yellow card given to him by the bald Webber.

Song obviously didn't expect that he would get a second yellow card for this action—he had an unbelievable expression on his face. He took three steps and two steps, rushed to Weber, and stretched out his hands to appeal: "I've stopped my feet, I've stopped my feet! !"

The moment he stepped on Royce's chest, Song really stopped.But raising his feet so high is a dangerous action in itself, regardless of whether he retracts his feet or is unintentional, this action can be given a yellow card warning.Webber's penalty is no problem.

Two yellows and one red, Weber took out a red card from his pocket, and stretched out his hand to the sidelines, signaling Song to leave the field as soon as possible.

Song's pleading failed, and he left the scene disgruntled.

He came to the sidelines, just in time to find that Anton and Royce were on the sidelines.

This player was really upset: he obviously withdrew his foot in the end, but he still got a red card and was sent off.Hmph, if he hadn't retracted his feet and just kicked up like this, Royce still doesn't know if he can walk upright!

Thinking of this, Song glanced at a few half-drunk sports drink bottles thrown on the sidelines, and immediately became angry and angry, and kicked away, and a drink bottle was immediately kicked away, heading straight for Anton Fly over there with Royce.

Anton saw Song coming over with a disgruntled face, and he had already been on guard in secret. When he saw the drink bottle flying towards him, he suddenly stretched out his foot, picked up the drink bottle with his toes, and took the hard plastic drink that was not empty. The bottle immediately fell into the palm of Anton's right hand.

The power of this kick might not be enough to convince Song Yu, but the next moment, Anton squeezed it with his right hand—the drink bottle made of hard plastic was like a ball of towel, and Anton squeezed it flat with one hand.

An Dong has never provoked others, but he has never been afraid of being provoked by others.

Not only did the beverage bottle miss Anton, but it was also squeezed into a "flat towel" by him.

Song, who stepped forward to provoke, saw this move, and immediately shrank his neck. He no longer dared to provoke the opposing head coach on the sidelines, and entered the player tunnel in desperation, and slipped back to the locker room.

The author has something to say: Alexander Song, a player from Cameroon, happens to have the surname Song, so it is generally translated as "Song".
