Chapter 8: The Gaze of the Big Guy
"Philip, you're really ......"
John Taylor couldn't laugh or cry as he watched Philip Don arrive at the game with a large team. Philip? Tang not only came in person, but also brought a lot of technicians.
I mentioned the matter of the little disciple that day, but I didn't expect Philip Tang to really take it seriously!
"John, you should know me. I'm not a big talker, and I don't like big talkers. But I like true geniuses. ”
John Taylor, as England's No. 1 referee, has unrivalled connections in refereeing. John Taylor as a referee is a very harsh referee, a rare harsh referee in English football. And Philip? Don is also a very strict person.
The relationship between the two is not very close, but they are also relatively familiar people.
"Philip, are you really going to promote a little girl......"
"Yes."
Philip brought in technicians and soon set up equipment on the pitch. Especially on both sides of the goal. Philip Don is clearly trying to see if John Taylor is bragging.
If it's in the Premier League, you just have to look at the replay to tell if it's offside. Because when the Premier League is broadcast, there are more than ten shots in the whole stadium that can take care of all aspects. One of the shots is definitely able to tell if it's offside.
But in the sixth division, there is not even a broadcast. It's great to have one or two cameras in the whole stadium to follow the ball, and to be able to get the local station to broadcast it. So Philip Don simply brought his own technicians and equipment to evaluate Christina.
"John, don't blame me."
Philip? Tang suddenly sneered and said, "I know that little girl is your disciple. But if she does misjudge offside, I will definitely let her get out of the referee team for the men's game. ”
"Huh."
John Taylor laughed. This is indeed Philip Don's style. As he himself said, he himself is not a person who likes to talk big, and he is also a person who does not like to talk big. When he was in the FA, he was known for his tough character.
This Philip Don is the chairman of the referees' committee!
"Philip, I believe in my disciple."
"John, then we'll see."
Philip Don is a strong man. If John Taylor said big things, then kicking Christina out of the men's match referee team, Philip Don definitely did it. Similarly, if Christina is really that good, Philippe Don will not skimp on his appreciation.
"John, don't be burdened."
First-time enforcer Christina stepped on the turf of the pitch and breathed a sigh of relief.
Football game, I'm coming.
Clattenburg was the referee of the game, and seeing Christina's appearance, Clattenburg felt the same way.
When Clattenburg first came to the Northern League four years ago, he was ostracized and became an assistant referee in the Northern League at the age of eighteen, which can be said to have created the history of the Northern League, and even the history of referees in English football after World War II. For those referees in their thirties, Clattenburg is a thorn in the side.
It's just that Clattenberg is very good at pretending to be a grandson, so he can get to the point where he is now.
"I'm fine. Thank you. ”
"It's going to be fine after a while." Christina smiled gratefully at Clattenburg
Referees who are able to establish themselves in the Northern League, and who are ambitious, are weaving their own network. Clattenburg established himself in the Northern League at a young age, and of course has his own means of survival.
Whether it's Clattenburg or Christina, being able to establish themselves in the Northern League at such a young age has supporters behind them. It is precisely because of this that they need to cooperate even more. Clattenburg knows who is behind Christina, and holding that big tree will be of great benefit to his future development, so if Christina is good, he is willing to take her to enforce the law all the time.
For such a person, Clattenberg is willing to befriend. Maybe it will be used when it will be, and for the sake of the development of his disciples, John Taylor will definitely help himself speak more.
…………
In the 28th minute of the game,
"Toot-"
As the whistle blew, Clattenburg pointed to the sidelines of the players and smiled. Because Christina on the sidelines has already raised the flag of offside.
The player who was ruled offside was very upset and immediately ran in front of Christina and said loudly: "That's not offside, it's not offside. I plugged it in from behind. ”
Emotional and loud, but Christina didn't care. After all, during the game, whether it is the referee, the players, or even the coach, they are all in a state of excitement. Talking out loud is a very common thing.
"You plugged it in from behind. But you cut too fast and the ball goes too slowly. So when you pass the ball, you're in an offside position. ”
Christina immediately explained to him. Because Christina is a rookie referee, and she is still a little girl, what would she dare if she was an old referee player.?
"No, no. Dog...... No, no, I absolutely, I really wasn't offside. ”
The player looked at Christina's young face and was also underestimated, shouting at her, but considering that it was a girl, he took back the foul language that had come to his mouth. Christina became more cautious because of the events of the first game. But seeing this kid's fierce appearance, it was also a female man's personality that exploded and replied loudly: "It's offside." You go back now, this is the first warning. ”
The different positions of the guide zhì people deal with the problem differently. I think when Christina was watching the game on the spot, she yelled at the referee at every turn. I didn't feel it at the time, but when I became a referee, it was a completely different feeling.
I'm the referee and I'm the authority on the field. Rightly or wrongly, the players have to follow. Therefore, he immediately warned the other party. At this time, Clattenburg came to the side, first pointed to the player, and then said to John: "Is there something wrong?" ”
"No, just communication."
"Okay."
Clattenburg turned to look at the player and said, "It's an offside position. ”
The player looked at Christina, and then at Clattenburg as he slowly returned to his position. Sure enough, it was the referee's deterrent power. Clattenburg saw the player go back and said to Christina, "Good job. ”
Not to praise Cristina for being offside, but to praise Cristina for the attitude she had just treated the player. It was a simple affirmation, and then Clattenburg blew the whistle and continued the game.
Christina smiled for the first time in a long time. Clattenburg was a fierce man at the start, but he was a very good referee on the field. Know how to regulate the affairs of the referee team and know how to respect the members of the referee team.
Clattenburg has plenty of support for the linesman. Although I don't like Christina very much, I don't deny Christina's offside judgment without any denial, and I respect Christina's judgment very much. Christina is very grateful to Clattenburg.
"How's it going?"
Every time Christina's decision, Philippe? Don confirmed it all above. Philip? Tang's fiery character doesn't have the patience to prove it one by one after the game, so every time the offside penalty comes out, the following staff will directly give Philip? Don sends a confirmation signal.
The sixth tier of the English league is still very strong, and the pace of the game is very fast because there are basically no technical players. And the players are very lacking in tactical ability, so the midfield blindly opens a lot of big feet. This also makes all kinds of offsides also happen often and cannot be counted.
In the Premier League, if there are more than 10 offsides in a game, then there are simply too many offsides in this game. But in a lower league like the Northern League, the number of offsides is unclear.
"You're really not bragging, this disciple is awesome."
Philip Don couldn't help but look at John? Taylor. So far, Cristina has been awarded seven offside decisions without any problems. Christina was able to accurately judge offside.
Of course, offsides in the lower leagues are not as difficult to judge as in the Premier League. Because a lot of offsides in the Premier League are millimeters, the strikers are smarter and more powerful. And the strikers in the lower leagues are not so good.
But being able to judge seven offside judgements without a single mistake still makes Philip Tang very much appreciated.
"Philip, I'm telling you how I met her."
John Taylor was in the middle of the exam, and Christina was the only one who wrote offside on the paper. Then the rest of the months watched the game with Christina and made all kinds of offside judgments, and I told Philippe Don one by one.
"Is there really such a god?"
The linesman's ability to accurately judge offside only shows that he is an excellent assistant referee. But according to John Taylor, Christina's ability to accurately judge offside and fake falls in all positions is not an ordinary talent.
"Tell me, John. How the hell did she judge? ”
"If you see two people walking together from a distance, you can't tell where they are. But my disciple can, she can accurately judge the position of the two people, and she can judge which of the two of them is in front of and behind them. ”
"Amazing, really amazing."
Philip Don couldn't help but look at Christina, who was shuttling back and forth on the sideline below, and was really amazed in his heart. Such an outstanding talent is a good seedling to be a referee. In the future, referees will be professional, and what is needed is such excellent referees.
"John, though, I still can't fully believe it. Next, I still have to take a good look at his watch. Hearing is false, seeing is believing. ”
Philip Don is Philip Don. In front of a first referee like John Taylor, nothing has changed. Despite John Taylor's assurances, Philip Don still has to keep looking at Christina's table.
After all, Christina is a girl, but her talent has already left a deep impression on Philip Tang's mind, what will the future hold for Christina?
