Chapter 77 Indirect Free Kick

In fact, although an indirect free kick is a rare penalty, the probability of an indirect free kick in the penalty area is quite high. It may not be comparable to a penalty kick, but it is still much better than a direct free kick in a dangerous position.

Di Natale and Alonso stood in front of the ball, and the penalty area was densely packed with players from both sides, pushing and shoving each other. Although it was not malicious, the anger between the two sides had gradually risen.

"Are you coming or am I coming?" Alonso asked Di Natale in a low voice with a smile.

Alonso is the first free kicker in the team, but at this time, Di Natale, who is usually out of touch with free kicks, also stood in front of the ball. The opening lob shot obviously had thoughts on this indirect free kick, so Alonso asked this question.

There was a trace of gratitude in Di Natale's eyes. He knew that his actions were a bit presumptuous, but he really wanted to perfectly avenge Reading in this game and make them pay the worst price for what they did. .

"Could you please pass it to me later?" Di Natale also said softly, they were afraid that their opponents would hear their indirect free kick tactics.

Alonso nodded, but with a flash of inspiration in his mind, he turned around and called Iniesta over again.

"Stand back a little to the left. I'll pretend to pass the ball to Andres, but I'll actually pass it to you. Come on, I'm waiting to see you slap these bastards hard." Alonso pulls Iniesta, but actually speaks to Di Natale.

When Iniesta and Alonso stood in front of the ball, Di Natale quietly moved two steps to the left, giving the opponent the feeling that the Italian forward gave up an indirect free kick.

The referee blew his whistle, and the double-handed players focused their attention on the ball.

The ball is actually less than 8 meters away from the goal, which is a very short distance. At such a short distance, it is impossible for the goalkeeper to make a god-level save. At this time, we need to rely on The Reading players used their bodies to form a physical defense line on the goal wall to block the shooting route.

The corners of Alonso's mouth curled up slightly, showing a weird smile, and at the same time gently flipped the corner to the left.

The ball was about to appear in front of Iniesta, and Reading's wall immediately moved forward, trying their best to block the little man's shot.

But when they rushed two steps closer, they were horrified to find that Iniesta did not shoot, but missed the ball, and the ball continued to move towards the center of the penalty area on the left.

Because the Reading goalkeeper's sight was blocked, he didn't notice the change at the first time. He thought that Iniesta's shot was blocked by a wall, and he felt relieved.

In the next second, Di Natale burst into the ball, and the ball was poured straight into the goal, so that the Reading players who wanted to block with their bodies did not react.

The referee's whistle sounded, and at the same time, he made a gesture that the goal was effective. At this time, the Reading goalkeeper realized it belatedly, turned his head to look at the ball that had landed, stared at the ball, and was speechless.

Di Natale yelled frantically and ran all over the field, and took off his jersey, shaking his passion to vent.

"Bastards, you bastards who only know malicious fouls, I'm going to blow you up today. Now, the massacre begins!" Di Natale roared in his heart, and every time he passed by a Reading player, he used a flashing ball His eyes were watching, as if to let the opponent accept the punishment of God.

When Di Natale's enthusiasm faded, the Notts County players came over and patted him on the head. It was both a celebration and a comfort. They all understood Di Natale's mood.

Not everyone can bear the pain and grief of coming to a foreign country with the intention of showing off, but being injured and leaving the field due to the shameless behavior of the opponent.

When celebrating the goal, David also jumped out of the coach's bench, rushed to the sidelines, and intentionally or unintentionally celebrated wildly in front of the visiting team's coach's bench, showing off his might.

He looked at the Reading coach provocatively, as if saying: "I just want to celebrate in front of you, if you don't accept it, bite me!"

The Reading coach was so angry that he could only complain and protest to the fourth official on the sidelines because he had nothing to do with David.

As the chairman of Notts County, David is very famous in League Two, because every team knows that Notts County has a chairman who is not doing his job properly. Watching the ball, and celebrating in the penalty area is a weird thing, even crazier than the players who score goals.

The fourth official managed to persuade David to return to the coaching bench of the home team, but he was also sweating. There are not many ways to deal with such a chairman.

Because of the long celebration time and the protests of the Reading players, the referee finally urged Notts County to start the game as soon as possible. The game had only been going on for less than 5 minutes, and the situation was already full. He was really a little He regretted taking this task. If time could be turned back, then he would definitely give this "precious" opportunity to others.

After the game restarted, Notts County did not slow down because of the lead, and continued to press aggressively as always, making it difficult for Reading to organize an effective attack smoothly and contain the opponent from the source. This is Loew consistent tactical thinking.

After the Reading players fall behind, it is inevitable that they will be impatient. When passing the ball, there will be deviations in strength. Coupled with their own poor strength, it is difficult for the offense to pass more than a dozen feet in a row. Either there is a mistake or the ball is intercepted. There is almost no frontal threat. Notts County goal chances.

On the contrary, Notts County's counterattack was very successful. Perhaps this should not be called a counterattack, but a quick attack after a steal in the frontcourt is more appropriate.

Two full-backs and two forwards can create threats in dangerous areas through small-scale group cooperation. This is a gap at the tactical level and a gap in the individual strength of the players.

In the 8th minute of the game, Meireles intercepted the ball in the midfield and gave it to Iniesta on the left. Dot the front and back of the door.

Villa's speed and explosive power were reflected at this time. He was still parallel to the opponent's players just now, but he touched the ball first.

But to everyone's surprise, Villa did not choose to shoot, but faced the goalkeeper's block and crossed the middle.

Di Natale has been completely leaked out, in the face of the nanny ball sent by Villa, the Italian striker unceremoniously pushed it into the goal.
