Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 150 Team Dinner (1)

Wang Li thought he played very well in the first half!

In fact, the same is true. Two goals helped the team lead. As a striker, isn't that enough?

But what is puzzling is that during the intermission, the head coach Eriksson announced that Vassell will play!
"In the second half of the game, the tactics will remain the same. Vassell, you go to cooperate with Rooney, and you will still play a double striker." A simple sentence made Wang Li's heart sink to the bottom. If you cooperate with Rooney, who will end up on the field if you are not yourself? ?

After Eriksson announced this, almost everyone in the team was stunned, even the protagonist Vassell stuttered in surprise: "Old...boss? You...you mean w...me? I'm on the field ? But..." He pointed at himself with his right finger and asked in disbelief.

"Don't you want to play?" Eriksson glared, and directly suppressed Wasser's words. He turned to look at Wang Li, who was frowning slightly, with a guilty conscience.

As the first striker of Aston Villa, Vassell has a very thorough understanding of 'forward'. This position has only one role, and that is to score goals!No matter how superb the skills are, how much applause you receive on the field or how much trouble you cause your opponents, those are just floating clouds. Only goals can prove the value of a forward player!
That's right, a goal!
And this black-haired kid contributed two goals in 45 minutes, and most of these two goals were due to his own ability!
Although he failed to touch the ball for most of the first half, although the cooperation between him and his teammates was not tacit, although he seldom participated in the defense, although... But, the two goals have been covered Overcoming all disadvantages and covering up everyone's brilliance!
But now, the head coach wants to replace him. How can this not make Vassell feel puzzled?
In the locker room, Wang Li sat on the armchair bored. He knew that the team could not revolve around him alone, and he was indeed just a rookie in the team. The coach still has to replace him. Is this a necessary stage for rookies?What are you kidding.

"Alan, don't worry, maybe it's a good thing!" Seeing Wang Li's expression, Campbell walked over slowly and comforted him by patting him on the shoulder.

Wang Li raised his head and looked at him in surprise, "Good thing?"

"That's right! Maybe the boss will reuse you in the next game!" Campbell said sincerely.This is not without reason. The experienced Campbell is by no means inferior to ordinary coaches in terms of tactical vision. In the first half, he observed Wang Li on the bench for 45 minutes and the result he got was: this kid is very strong. And there is still room left!
Reserve!What a shock!

After training together for such a long time, the black-haired boy is the one he can't see through the most. He is always unexpected. Obviously, Eriksson can definitely see this, so the replacement of him is probably for a kind of reason. Protection, the ability to protect players from being acquired by opponents, so that they can have more cards in the knockout round.

"Really?" Wang Liqiang smiled, "Thank you."

…………

As soon as the second half started, the fans in the audience found that the black-haired boy who scored twice in the first half was actually replaced. This is really surprising. Don't England want to win?Come to think of it, this game is irrelevant to the England team.

However, the French fans quit!
If Croatia wins, the French team will have no hope of qualifying!

Therefore, they are angry!

The cheering and cheering in the first half changed immediately in the East Stand of the stadium, and there was a sound of cursing. Within 1 minute, several generations of Eriksson's relatives were greeted with noble greetings!
However, as a world-class coach, Eriksson doesn't care about these things. The feelings of the fans are floating clouds, let alone the fans of other teams. Only the team's results are the key.

In fact, Campbell was only half right. The reason why he replaced Wang Li was not all for future games. This black-haired boy had obvious advantages, but his shortcomings were even more obvious. He found that this boy hadn't grown up yet. The stage can only be used as a surprise soldier, not as the main general, because when the opponent knows his shortcomings, as long as the defense is targeted, it will be difficult for him to perform.

So what if you let him play?
In the final stage of the first half, Croatia just sent a Simunic to defend close to him and blocked his way of getting the ball, which already made him burnt out. What can he do in the second half?Besides, even if they play well, it doesn't matter if they win the game. Anyway, the England team is already the first in the group, so there is no need at all.

As for whether the French team qualify or not, does that have anything to do with Eriksson?

Although Wang Li was replaced, the Croatian team was a little surprised, but without this abnormally fast black-haired kid, their offense was even more unscrupulous.The Croatian team reversed the decline in the final stage of the first half and launched wave after wave of attacks on the England team's goal. With 45 minutes left in the game, they must score at least two goals to win to guarantee their qualifications.

As for the French game?Their opponent is the Swedes, who expects the group of soft-legged shrimps to win?
The most reliable opportunity is in your own hands!
Faced with this kind of attack, England's young players were a little flustered. The repeated mistakes made the opponent's several shots almost lead to a goal, but perhaps the Croatian team was too eager to score, and they hit every few good opportunities. After getting off the plane, the coach Baric on the sidelines stomped his feet angrily. This old man in his 70s is really not easy!
'However, this old man is in such good health that he can last the entire game without a pacemaker. On the bench, the bored Wang Li thought silently that he was just waiting for the end of the game. Anyway, he couldn't play anymore. Winning or losing has nothing to do with him, and it has nothing to do with the team's performance.

Time passed slowly. Although the game on the court seemed to be full of passion, it was far worse than the first half.

In the 75th minute of the game, Croatia's offensive frenzy finally took effect. Taking advantage of a corner kick, Serna drove the ball to the back point. Lampard, who was defending the front point in the chaos, jumped up and missed the ball. Tudor Erl barely took off to head the ball, and Croatia equalized.

It's a pity that, before they could play any more, Rooney took a mid-range shot from the penalty area, which knocked their mood down, and the England team took the lead again. At the same time, coach Baric received a desperate bad news ': The French team defeated Switzerland 3:1!
In other words, if they want to qualify, they must beat the England team, but there are less than 10 minutes left in the game, and the score on the field is 3:2, oh, the opponent is leading!

At the end of the game, Croatia's No. 11 Sokota took advantage of a single chance to rewrite the score to 3:3, but unfortunately, this can't change anything at all.

…………

In the selection of the best player after the game, Wang Li won the title with an absolute advantage of 83.5%. Even though he only played for 45 minutes, now in the hearts of French fans, he has become Savior.

Perhaps, they have long forgotten that in the match between England VS France, this kid scored the winning goal. Otherwise, the French team would never be so passive at the end of the group stage!

The group stage of Group B is finally over. In the locker room, the players are preparing to celebrate. No matter what, winning the first place in the group is something worth celebrating.

"Go out for a big meal?" Wang Li scratched his head and fell into the trouble of happiness. Today he and Rita have an appointment to have a meal together.Perhaps if it was before, Wang Li would definitely choose a teammate without hesitation, but this time he made an appointment with Rita first, which made him a little hesitant.

"Hahaha, Alan, do you have a date? Could it be that the little princess is here?" Seeing Wang Li's expression, the playboy Bridget immediately thought of something and asked probingly.

"Oh Nope!"

"Really?" Rooney also leaned over and asked suspiciously.

"Not really!"

"Hey, it's really a pity that the little princess didn't come." Rooney shook his head and said hilariously, "I also said that I introduced Colleen to him today. She told me several times."

"Koleen? You still want to take Colleen?" Wang Li asked in surprise.

"Of course, don't you know that David's wife is very strict and insists on celebrating together, so everyone decided to bring their girlfriends." Rooney said of course.

"Everyone? Who are you referring to? Why don't I know?"

"Because the little princess didn't come! You don't want to take that beautiful manager of yours!" Bridget interjected.

Wang Li chuckled, "How do you know?"

"Fuck!!" Bridget raised his middle finger at Wang Li, "Alan, I said that today I have you as my company, so I am alone! You are not satisfied with the little princess, you are really It's too sweet!"

Wang Li and Rooney were stunned at the same time, and then they both cast contemptuous glances at Bridget. It is rare to see such a thick-skinned person. Everyone in England knows that Bridget is the most philandering in the team!
