Chapter 183: Mad Rand Comes Out as a Friend
Mad dog Karl Rand, one of the vice-captains of Madiburg, remembers the first half of the season at home to Schalke 04, when he was sent off and missed the next game against Borussia Mönchengladbached. Rand tried to lead the team out of the predicament in Zhuo Yang's absence, but eventually found that he was not that material, and he also developed disappointment and hatred for himself.
Later, under the guidance of Zhuo Yang, Rand regained the direction of his efforts and his self-confidence in football. All this stems from the red card against Schalke 04, Zhuo Yang. And Zhuo Yang's red card is the only one in his career so far, and as a super interceptor who has been serving as a defensive gate in the middle of the midfield, this is also a big miracle.
As for the reason for the red card, Madiburg's teammates also know that they are all quite angry, and Zhuo Yang's good relationship is one thing, Paulson's insult is not only Zhuo Yang's sister, but the recognized eldest sister of the entire Madibao, who has not eaten the fried dishes of the eldest sister?
In the eyes of Rand and Madiburg's teammates, Zhuo Yang undoubtedly suffered a loss in front of Paulsen, and he tackled behind him with a retaliatory tackle, but he was sent off with a red card. Of course, no one would associate Paulson's subsequent 'sudden stomach ulcer' with Zhuo Yang, and Zhuo Yang would never tell anyone about these things.
With Land's understanding of Zhuo Yang, he will definitely not give up, and from the small talk in the past few days, he can also feel that Zhuo Yang is planning to engage Paulsen on the field. This made everyone mutter, and they all wanted to see if they could make a difference for Zhuo Yang, but what method was used to make it difficult for everyone, after all, not everyone is called a broken leg madman.
Behind Zhuo Yang's back, a few people exchanged opinions in private, but it was still the mad dog Rand who made the final decision: You all care, look at me.
Rand has his own considerations, retaliating against Paulson, and nine times out of ten he will receive a red card. Therefore, this red card must not be eaten by Zhuo Yang, because this loss is too great for Madibao to be injured. In contrast, I am the most suitable person.
First of all, Uncle Scum has confirmed that Rand will start this game, which is a prerequisite for being able to beat Paulson. Secondly, in Rand's view, there are many strong players in the team in the midfield position, Khedira, Prows, Debich, Ritter, all five of them can do it, and they are not worse than themselves, and their own red cards have the least impact on the team. And in terms of personal strength, if he spells out Paulsen and exchanges one for one, Madiburg will undoubtedly earn it, after all, that rotten man is a first-class midfielder in today's football.
More importantly, Rand is willing to do something for Zhuo Yang. It's just a red card, it's not worth mentioning.
As for how to get rid of Paulson, Rand's solution is - there is no way. When you get on the field, you can adapt to the situation, anyway, you can't let Zhuo Yang make the first move, you must be in front.
Of course, Zhuo Yang didn't know all this, otherwise, he would definitely stop the mad dogs. The reason is very simple, he has a lot of tricks against Paulson, where is he still using a red card. Zhuo Yang has already thought about it, the last time he got his stomach, this time it is the intestines, so that your stomach and intestines have problems every once in a while, what you eat, what you pull, and what you eat will become See-you-tomorro (see you tomorrow).
In this game, Madiburg sent Zhuo Yang, Rand, Zhirkov and Arshavin in the midfield, and Gomez and Mido in the forward line. It stands to reason that the opponent Schalke 04 has a strong attack, and Madiburg should be stationed in the back line of Rock Delas and Lion King Lao Song, but neither of these two veterans is on today.
Dellas is a little cold because of a little cold, and the seasons change a small cold. Lao Song failed to play, it was purely for tactical reasons.
A few days ago, Lao Song found Uncle Scum, and the two had a deep talk, it seems that a certain consensus should be reached, plus the captain Zhuo Yang said please, there is no such thing as a punitive substitute now.
Schalke 04 The two strikers Ayrton and Buffalo Asamoah are both extremely fast, good at stealing the ball behind them, without the big gate of Delas to build a dam, Lao Song, who is accustomed to standing a few steps on the premise, is obviously not suitable for dealing with this double-fast combination. As a result, the 'old' duo of Pomponluis and Vermaelen came into play, with both left and right protectors being strong in assists, Grosso and Zepek. As for the goalkeeper, Handanovic has already secured his starting position.
Li'er is this Li'er, and the anger on Lao Song's face is certain.
Uncle Scum is still worried, the last time he faced Schalke 04 lost 2:3 at home, on the surface, it was because Zhuo Yang was sent off in the end, but in fact, the two goals conceded before that were because Lao Song chose the wrong time to insert forward, and was missed by Asamoah.
.
Zhuo Yang wanted to get Paulson down as soon as possible, and Rand wanted to exchange one with Paulson before Zhuo Yang, but neither of them expected things to come so quickly.
Paulsen and Kemphuis, Belgian Verbante and Brazilian Lincoln played in midfield, and the former midfielder Altentop was transformed into a central defender by Rangnick, which was also the biggest stroke of Schalke 04's rapid improvement, a change that made Shakhtar one of the teams that conceded the fewest goals since Rangnick took over.
Schalke kicked the ball off, Ayrton received the ball and kicked it back to Camphuis, then passed it to Kobiashvili and then handed it to Lincoln at the heart of the midfield. Thoroughly establishing Lincoln as the core of the offense is also one of Rangnick's handiwork.
Lincoln pushed to Ayrton, who received the ball with his back, from a long distance before Zhuo Yang pressed up, and the ball brother knocked the ball back to Paulson, who was 40 meters away from the goal. At this time, it was only 30 seconds before the whistle started, and the Madiburg man had not yet touched the ball, and Zhuo Yang and Paulsen had not yet had time to face each other.
Paulson is a top-notch defensive midfielder, but he also has his own attacking skills. Paulson has a pretty good long-range shot, and his feet are very hard. It wasn't a good long-range opportunity, some were far and a little off, and it didn't pose much of a threat to the goalkeeper. It's just that many teams and players are used to trying their feet at the beginning, looking for a feeling and trying the depth of the opponent's goalkeeper. So, Paulson shot.
Stretching his arms and legs, Paulson aimed at the far corner of the goal and fired a long-range shot, not because he didn't want to hit the near corner, and Rand, who was ten meters away from him, sealed the near corner vision.
Rand saw that Poulson was going to shoot from a distance, and he didn't think about it, and his defensive style is that he doesn't want to die, and he can't even be afraid of blocking the gun's eye? Even if the ball didn't pose much of a threat, Rand didn't hesitate to meet it.
After jumping three steps and jumping, Rand was not like other people who had to block the gun's hole, he slumped down and turned around, leaving his opponent with his back to fate. Rand puffed out his chest to face it head-on, not to mention football, even a cannonball, he wouldn't blink his eyes.
Paulson pulled a full bow, and the ball flew off the ground like a frightened falcon, and before he could let go of his legs, the ball hit the stomach of the heroic Rand.
