Chapter Ninety-Six: The "Cunning" Jam Paul
Daniel: Marco, it's been 60 minutes since the game, Chen, aren't you playing yet?
On the Chesena coach's seat, assistant coach Daniel asked anxiously. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, so far in this game, not only Daniel, many people on the scene are particularly puzzled why Paul Jamesena still doesn't let Chen Long play, especially Cesena is still 0:1 behind at the moment, you know, Chen Long is the biggest offensive killer in the Cesena team!
Paul Jen: Wait, it's not the best time yet.
Daniel: Oh, my God, Marco, I wish you knew what you were doing now!
Almost 20 minutes into the second half, the two teams on the field were still playing very anxiously, Cagliari had the advantage on the field, but Cesena simply defended in a comprehensive way with 10 men, which also led to Cagliari's attack to a stalemate, and it was difficult to find good opportunities.
Moreover, as the game continued, the physical decline of the players of both teams was also very serious, especially the Cesena players who were in a defensive state, and the consumption was serious.
Seventy minutes into the game, the score was still 1:0, and Cagliari was ahead.
Mario: Normally, 70 minutes is a turning point in a game, because at this time, the physical energy of the players on both sides is very depleted, and from the situation on the field, Cesena is obviously in a very disadvantageous situation!
Dempsey: That's true, but actually, I'm more curious now if Paul Jen is going to make some personnel changes, especially for Long Chen!
In the 72nd minute, the stadium, which had been in a dull state in the second half of the game, finally had a new change, Cesena equalized, and the score became 1:1!
Cesena striker, Djuric, was brought down by Cagliari defenders from 28 yards from the Cagliari goal.
The referee, who had a tight penalty scale throughout the game, did not hesitate to award Cesena a free kick.
The player who took the free kick was Zou Zhaolong, the core of the midfield, which was originally very positive, and Zou Zhaolong's free kick ability was not bad, so in one fell swoop, in the face of the Cagliari goalkeeper, the football quickly slid out of an arc and lightning drilled into the net.
The score suddenly became 1:1
Zou Zhaolong's goal has both advantages and disadvantages for the Cesena backline, which is about to collapse.
On the plus side, it eased the defensive pressure at the back for a short period of time and won a short break for the defenders.
On the downside, Cagliari, who were equalized, became even more frantic in attack after a little sluggishness, and the game ended in a draw, but it was not their goal, to win, to succeed in revenge, yes!
This is all the more evident in the fact that in the immediate immediate aftermath of the goal, the Cagliari manager made a personnel change, removing a backfield player and replacing it with a winger.
However, at the moment when the head coach of Cagliari made personnel adjustments, Cesena coach's seat, Gianpaolo, who was clenching his fists, also slowly released his palm.
Paul Jen: Daniel, tell Long Chen to warm up!
Cagliari's substitutions quickly paid off, and although they had not yet scored, they gradually compressed Cesena's defence into the box.
As a result, there is a chaotic battle in the Cesena penalty area at the moment! At the same time, it was also the most dangerous moment, and Cagliari could score at any time.
And at this time, the fourth official on the sidelines signaled that Cesena asked for a substitution.
With the appearance of the Chesena substitute, the stands suddenly erupted in warm applause, and Chen Long, who Cesena fans have been expecting almost from the beginning of this game to the present, finally appeared.
Chen Long replaced Rodriguez, who seemed to be sleepwalking throughout the game, and replaced him as a winger.
For Chen Long's play, although the Cagliari players on the field paid some attention, they did not give up and continued to bombard the Cesena penalty area!
However, if they knew what would happen in the coming days, the Cagliari players would have given up on their old approach.
In the 83rd minute of the game, Chen Long, who came on as a substitute to participate in the defense, touched the ball for the first time on the right periphery of the Cesena penalty area.
After controlling the football at his feet, Chen Long did not rush to pass the ball out, and in the face of the Cagliari players who immediately pounced, he used his sufficient physical fitness and his own strong physical fitness, and constantly made small foot movements to continue to control the football!
Zou Zhaolong, who was in the midfield, seemed to understand Chen Long's intentions, so in an instant, he exerted all his strength, quickly got rid of the Cagliari defenders, and quickly moved to the vacant position on the right side of the midfield.
When Zou Zhaolong moved to the right side of the midfield, Chen Long's pass was like a reservation, not too early or too late, just came to Zou Zhaolong's feet.
At the moment when Chen Long passed the ball out, he did not continue to stay in place, but instantly started to accelerate, quickly got rid of the defenders who followed behind him, and crossed the midfield like a lightning bolt at the speed of a "cheetah", and went straight to the Cagliari penalty area.
At the same time, Zou Zhaolong, who controlled the ball on the right side of the midfield, also crossed the half court with the ball and made a long pass in the air to the feet of Chen Long, who was running to the penalty area.
At this time, almost all the people on the scene held their breath, staring at the moving figure of Long Chen motionlessly.
Cagliari players also made a quick return visit, but their physical fitness was not superior, coupled with the terrifying speed in the face of Chen Long, so the retreat of Cagliari players could only be regarded as slow for Chen Long.
Quickly galloping to the Cagliari penalty area, Chen Long unloaded Zou Zhaolong's pass, retreated with his right foot slightly, adjusted his posture slightly, and bombarded the goal with a heavy left foot.
Like a high-speed cannonball, the football quickly crossed the penalty area and smashed into Cagliari's goal with a "bang", and the score became 2:1, and Cesena overtook the score.
After scoring a goal, Chen Long habitually made a celebration of "listening to cheers", running on the pitch non-stop, and accepting the loud cheers of the fans at the scene.
Such a celebration was in stark contrast to the Cagliari goalkeeper, who was still in a daze, and the other Cagliari players who were dejected.
Looking at the moment when Chen Long scored the goal, on the coach's bench of Cesena, he raised his arms excitedly and cheered, and the commentator Mario also laughed.
Mario: Dempsey, I think now I seem to understand Paul James's strategy, and he really deserves to be a master of counter-attacking, and Paul Jan is really cunning, haha.
