Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 34 To be a free man?

Wolverhampton scored the first goal, and the scene was a little passive. Aston Villa's coach O'Reilly immediately walked to the sidelines and shouted loudly for his players to stabilize the defense.

If they conceded another goal in the remaining minutes of the first half, it would really be powerless.

In the remaining minutes of the first half, Aston Villa's players were all huddled in their own half, bearing the siege of Wolverhampton. This kind of scene made the fans in the audience very excited. You know Aston Villa is a team in the Premier League's first group. Being able to play like this, even if it is only for a few minutes, makes the fans very happy!

In the end, Wolverhampton still failed to score a goal. After the referee Halsey whistled, the first half ended and the players rushed to the player tunnel.

……

In the dressing room of Aston Villa, O'Reilly was yelling at his players: "You have so many stars, each of you has a weekly salary of tens of thousands of pounds, and you can't guard against a kid who just landed in the Premier League." ?Look at the first half, do you think our opponents are Arsenal or Manchester United!!! They are the last place in the Premier League. Fortunately, this is not Villa Park, otherwise, after the game, you will all be sprayed as idiots, your boss I'm going to lose my job too!"

After listening to O'Reilly's words, the Aston Villa players were a little shy, especially Hendry and Delane.In the first 10 minutes of the first half, Hendry was completely defended by the black-haired boy, and he hardly played anything. It was even worse for Delane. His defense was almost ineffective against Wang Li, and he would always He was easily swayed by.

After venting for a while, O'Reilly calmed down and began to explain the tactics for the second half.

"Wolverhampton's offense is mainly initiated by Kennedy or Alan Wang. Kennedy doesn't need to pay too much attention. This kind of player has caught a lot of players in the Premier League. He doesn't have any creativity. He just relies on experience. Just playing football. Our focus is on this black-haired kid, as long as we can guard him well, Wolverhampton's attack is almost no threat."

"Haji replaced Delaney in the second half. I think he has no confidence, so come down and rest. You and Hitzelperg defend this black-haired kid with all your strength in the second half. Don't get too close and block his reception. The ball and the passing route, this kid is fast, but the experience of the game is definitely not as good as yours."

"Also, mainly from the right... Pay attention... at the beginning..."

……

Dave was very satisfied with the performance of the players in the first half of the game. Wolverhampton actually took the lead in the first half, which was even unexpected to him.However, as an experienced head coach, he will not be complacent because of this. Only after the game is over, he will have the mind to show his eloquence.

In the locker room, Dave encouraged his players, and then began to arrange the tactical tasks for the second half: "Halilson, in the second half, you replace Kurt, Alan, your task for the first 10 minutes is to participate Defense, after getting the ball, launch a quick counterattack if you have the opportunity, but everyone else should not be too forward, even if you fail, it doesn’t matter.”

"After the start of the second half, Aston Villa will definitely launch a fierce offensive. As long as we can hold the first 10 minutes, the initiative is in our hands. Therefore, in the second half, apart from Halilson and Miller top Outside the front, in the first 10 minutes, everyone else has to participate in the defense in the backcourt."

……

The short ten minutes passed quickly, and players from both sides also re-entered the court.With Halsey's whistle, the second half began.

Aston Villa kicked off, Angel kicked the ball to Auerbach, the bad boy hit his heel directly, then knocked the ball back to Hendry behind him, and then quickly towards Woolfham Puton's half-time rush.

Seeing Hendry taking the ball, Wang Li immediately followed. He still wanted to follow Hendry closely to hinder Aston Villa's attack.But this time it failed. Haji rushed towards him quickly, walked close to him, and made a simple two-for-one cooperation with Hendry, and passed him.

Facing Wolverhampton's iron barrel defense, Hendry slowly took the ball and looked for opportunities. He is the engine of the entire team and will not become timid because of the failure in the first half.

At this time, Wei Dingham ran forward from the left side quickly. With a flick of his right foot, the ball reached Wei Dingham's feet.Seeing that he got the ball, Cradorick next to him would never let him have a good time, chasing and stalking him.

But Dingham had no choice but to pass the ball to Angel who came to meet him.

Seeing Angel taking the ball, Nairol hurriedly followed him, squeezed him with his body, and ran towards the sidewalk slowly.When the ball was about to go out of the sideline, Angel stopped abruptly, hooked his right foot, and made a sudden change of direction to pass Naruer, and then he took a few steps towards the middle.

At this time, Coyle stepped forward to intercept, trying to double-team him with Nairol behind him, but Angel suddenly steadied the ball, and immediately flicked his ankle, and handed the ball to Johnson, who quickly inserted.

At this time, Wolverhampton's penalty area was already a little empty due to the passing and receiving of these players. Johansen was very fast and ran into the penalty area in a few seconds. Facing the defender, he A sudden change of direction stunned all the fans. He wants to shoot?

Yes, Johansen is an attacking full-back, he is very good at long shots!
At this time, two defenders in the penalty area blocked Oakes' sight. By the time he reacted, it was too late, and the ball flew into the goal against his hands.

"Johnson, long shot!!!...Dangerous!!!...The ball...goes in, hey, this ball is too fast, it is Aston Villa full-back Johnson's long shot, facing this foot The ball, Oakes was a little careless, now the score is 1:1, and Aston Villa tied the score in only 1 minute and 28 seconds of the opening of the second half."

All the fans stared blankly at the ball that had entered the goal. The situation changed too fast. Just now they were still discussing whether the game would be won, and the score was tied in a blink of an eye.

After the goal, Johansen sprinted back to his half to celebrate with his players.

Dave on the coach's bench patted his head in frustration. He didn't expect Aston Villa to tie the score in just over a minute of the opening!However, he didn't give any instructions to the players. Just after kick-off, changing tactics will inevitably lead to more chaos in the scene, which will only create more opportunities for the opponent.

……

After the celebration, the game continued, but Wang Li was helpless at this time.

The two big white men next to him surrounded him almost non-stop, and his teammates couldn't pass the ball to him at all. He had already been cut off three times.

His experience is too little, and he can't compare with these old fritters in the Premier League.And the two Aston Villa defenders didn't get close to him at all, they just wandered around and cut him off from his teammates.

Every time he wants to run out of position with speed, those two players will follow him. The range on the right side is not large, and he can't get rid of them no matter what.

It can be said that he has been completely prevented to death now!
……

On the game scene, Aston Villa has completely suppressed Wolverhampton.

Whether it is the player's personal ability, teamwork or tactical ability, Aston Villa is far stronger than Wolverhampton, so the game has almost become an offensive and defensive drill for Aston Villa.

However, Wolverhampton's players certainly will not be content with failure. They ran desperately, intercepted, and even fouled to block the opponent's attack, which also made Aston Villa score the first goal. After that, although he played very well on the scene, it was thunder and rain, and he failed to score again for more than 30 minutes.

But at this time, the most depressing ones were Halilson and Miller. The two wandered around the Aston Villa half for 30 minutes without any effect, but failed to touch the ball once. After that, they kept staring at Wang Li, waiting for his long pass, but Wang Li couldn't get the ball himself, let alone support them.

……

Dave sat firmly on the coach's bench, keeping his eyes on the black-haired boy on the field, thinking about something quietly. He has been doing this for more than [-] minutes.

He was thinking about a question, Allen's speed is so fast, even if he is defended by two people, he is unlikely to be suppressed like this.But at this time, the black-haired boy on the field was indeed guarded to death, and he couldn't get rid of the defenders beside him at all. Why?

Suddenly, he smiled soothingly, stood up, walked to the sidelines, waved to Wang Li, and after he ran over, he said to him, "Go and play free men, just like a basketball game. people."

Wang Li looked at Dave suspiciously, and asked, "What is a free man?"

After hearing what he said, Dave patted his head angrily, and explained helplessly: "That is to say, from now on, you can run anywhere on the field, and you can participate in defense or offense as you like." Then, you can do whatever you want, understand?"
