Chapter 214 Breaking the Curse ([-])

Chapter 214 Breaking the Curse ([-])

If Wei Xun did not send out this "message", the Notts County players and fans may have almost forgotten it. It seems that Notts County really did not win in the fourth round of the cup and were all eliminated. It's almost become a knot.

On February [-], [-], Notts County went to an away game against Watford.Coincidentally, Wei Xun looked at the historical records of the two teams. The two sides have only played against each other nine times in various competitions in England. Notts County has eight wins and one tie, and they have never lost. Although the fourth round of the cup is a magic Curse, but the psychological advantage of the Notts County soldiers against Watford has already been established.

Wei Xun actually doesn't understand why those dealers always send out past and historical results as a reference. To give the simplest example, even if Notts County lost to Watford in the past, Notts County would also lose to Watford. They have already beaten them in the league, so what's the use of historical records?
But as long as it is beneficial to him, Wei Xun brazenly informed the players of the situation, boosted the players' confidence, and eased their psychological pressure caused by the "fourth round of curse".

Wei Xun, who came to Watford's home stadium, began to envy and hate again. He had asked his father and Zhao Tai more than once, when will the new stadium in Notts County be finished, but Mr. Zhao Tai It was to tell Wei Xun that a good meal is not afraid of being late, and be patient, while his father was more straightforward, saying "wait, wait", and then began to ask about Xiaoliuyi.

"Dad, is he your own son?" Wei Xun had such doubts and dissatisfaction, while Wei Kangmei on the other end of the phone was even more straightforward:
"Liu Yi is still my own grandson, how old are you, okay, I get it, I'll remind you later..."

Hey, why are there always so many people in other people's home courts?
Watford's home stadium, Vicar Road Stadium, was built in 2 and can accommodate 2 people in total, but today they have [-] people. Although it is said, Wei Xun feels that it is not enough It is fake, and it cannot be faked. Except for some staff members in the aisles and the corners of the stands, the entire Vicar Road stadium is full. Wei Xun can tell it at a glance, and it cannot be faked.

In Notts County, Van Persie and Chiellini continued to be absent due to injuries. Klose started as a center forward. Frank Ribery, Sneijder and Arjen Robben supported behind him. He has been in good form recently and has won consecutive opportunities. Warren Doyle still appeared in the starting lineup, and his free-kick skills became more and more superb.

Due to the weather, only more than 600 Notts County fans participated in the expedition, but it is commendable that they can still appear in the stands of Vicar Road Stadium under such heavy rain.Before the kick-off, Wei Xun also specially took people to visit the fans who participated in the expedition in Notts County, and gave them ginger and brown sugar tea from the East.

Although the temperature is low, the heart is extremely warm.

I have to say that Wei Xun's ability to put on a show and create momentum is getting better and better.Elena and Peter Walker, who accompanied the team on the expedition, took photos of Wei Xun naked in the heavy rain, sending warm pictures to the expedition fans. There will definitely be such photos on the Notts County official website and "Fans" close up.

Guardiola, who has always paid more attention to demeanor, put on a down jacket for the first time today. The temperature is low and it is raining heavily. For a little demeanor and handsomeness, it is really not worth the candle to freeze himself to death.

Maybe it was because the down jackets of the first team were too warm, or the recent training was too tiring. Huang Miao, who played with the Notts County first team for the first time, was wrapped in a heavy down jacket and fell asleep in Wei Xun's arms.

"This kid..." Wei Xun was also a little helpless, he didn't look a little nervous, saying that he was big-hearted, or heartless.If it weren't for the injuries of Dario Hubner, Kevin Dirk, and Van Persie who couldn't come here, Jamie Vardy will participate in the youth team game today, and Huang Miao really has no chance to sit on the bench .

Seeing Wei Xun's skillful gesture of holding Huang Miao's head to make him fall asleep, the old Mertesacker also smiled knowingly. Looking at his son standing on the field, he would also think of the time when he was a nanny back then. Days, "Time flies so fast, in a flash, Pell has grown up so much..."

Notts County launched a fierce attack from the beginning. The players changed their previous tactics of attacking from the wing and flying on both wings, and directly attacked Watford from the center.It’s not that the Notts County players have gone crazy, nor is it that Guardiola has lost control of the players, but according to the data collected before the game, Watford’s left central defender is their biggest weakness, with slow turns and even slower speeds , Notts County's dazzling foot skills are simply a proposition for him.

Perhaps Notts County's mad attack left too much space for Watford. In the 5th minute of the game, Watford launched a decent counterattack. The breakthrough cross from the right was barely in place. The unguarded Watford center was at the outflanking point.

The Watford coach was ready to celebrate the fans, but the Watford center's push near the penalty spot magically went flying.

"Fake! Fake! Fake!"

The important thing is said three times. The anger of the Watford coach can be imagined. If a goal can be scored at this time, the trend of the whole game will be completely different. The goal was missed, "Fack!", the wrathful Watford coach swears again.

The Watford center may have realized what a rare opportunity he missed. The act of kneeling in front of the penalty area could not restore the fact that his status had declined in the eyes of the Watford coach.

It's hard to change from bad to good, but to change from good, it may only take one thing...

The Notts County players have a strong ability to adjust. Thiago Motta consciously retreated to the midfield to strengthen his defense, and by the way, protect the space in front of Carvalho and Mertesacker.

In the 10th minute of the game, Arjen Robben, who felt good on his feet, tried a long-range shot and hit the Watford crossbar. There was a burst of boos from the Watford home fans, but then , is the uniform applause, Robben's kick is really wonderful.

No. In the 19th minute, Notts County took advantage of the opportunity of Watford's corner kick to attack the central defender and failed to return to the defense, and launched a quick counterattack. The center Klose, who participated in the defense in the penalty area, sent a through pass. Franck Ribery went forward crazily along the right flank and made the ball outside the penalty area to Arjen Robben who moved to the rib of the penalty area.

"Peter Pan"'s iconic left-footed curve ball flew out. The Watford goalkeeper dived and stretched his body to the extreme before saving the ball over the baseline. Notts County won a corner kick.
