Chapter Ninety-Seven: It's Amazing
Updated: 2013-04-03
When Dick saw Vicente accelerate past Ayala's defense with a change of direction, the scene of Owen, the boy chasing the wind, also came to his mind......
"Unlucky Ayala ......" Dick couldn't help but mourn for Ayala in his heart, he is definitely a top central defender, but in the 98 World Cup, he is the background and tragedy of the two classic goals, whether it is Owen's fame or Bergkamp's shocking blow, he is the object of being shaken, and today, it is Vicente's turn to exert power on him......
This kind of thought is only a moment, in the frantic shouts of the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands, Vicente has already burst into the penalty area with the ball, Pellegrino is staring at Jadel and can't come over to stop him at the first time, Canizares can only choose to abandon the goal, but unfortunately, no matter how good the goalkeeper is, in front of the striker who has enough time to prepare and adjust, he often seems so helpless!
Canizares is very helpless now, Vicente is young, but he is calm in front of goal - the seven goals scored in La Liga last season were not scored for nothing, those goals were basically scored by Vicente relying on his speed to form a single knife and then single-handedly score against the goalkeeper, he is quite experienced in this regard. [Full text reading. 】
Dangling Canizares to the ground with a fake shot, followed by an easy left-footed push, the ball flew quickly into Valencia's goal!
"Two to one! Atletico are leading again! It was 19-year-old local teenager Vicente who scored the goal? Rodriguez! He was lightning fast enough to break down Valencia's defenses! Mendieta made a surprising mistake in midfield, Vicente intercepted the ball and broke through Ayala's defence before slotting the ball into the net guarded by Canizares! ”
"Mendieta, the spiritual leader, Ayala at the heart of the defence, and the main goalkeeper Canizares...... These three can be said to be the mainstay of Valencia, the three most important players, but all three of them lost under the onslaught of a young player in Vicente! This is a huge blow for Valencia! ”
"Nineteen-year-old Vicente? Rodriguez showed his great speed and technique! Before the start of this season, Vicente, who moved from Levante to Atletico Madrid, was not remarkable in Atletico's recruitment this season, because his transfer fee was only 5 million US dollars, which accounted for only 18 of Atletico's summer transfer spending...... However, Atletico Madrid's manager Dick has made the 19-year-old a regular for Atletico since the beginning of the season, and his decision has puzzled many people, because Atletico have more mature and experienced players, but Dick once again proved his judgment right! This windy teenager has something that no other Atletico player has, and that is speed! With him in the frontcourt, Atletico's attacking methods will be more diverse! They can play the British style of flying on both wings and long passes, or they can play the Spanish style of straight forward insertion, and they can also play the Italian style of defensive counterattack! In Dick's new season signings, Jadel has already proved his worth with two goals in three league games, Thuram and Makelele have made Atletico's defense stronger, Cruise has scored as soon as he comes out, plus a Vicente! Atletico Madrid's summer is expensive, but it's worth it! ”
Vicente rushed to the coach's bench with open arms, he wanted to hug Dick - when deciding to transfer to Atletico Madrid, although Dick promised that he would be Atletico Madrid's main wingman, but he was also a little apprehensive when he knew that Atletico Madrid would spend money to buy so many people next, but Dick proved that his commitment was effective, and this goal was also the best reward for Dick!
"Haha, good boy, you ......"
Dick opened his arms to meet Vicente's embrace, but he didn't expect Vicente to seem to be a little over-enthusiastic, and jumped up when he was still a meter away, and then the whole person rushed into his arms......
Unsuspecting, Dick screamed, and then was pushed to the ground by Vicente - this word made Dick feel quite unhappy, but he didn't care about it now, although Vicente was not large, but with the help of the power of the sprint, it also directly made him fall backwards in embarrassment - Marina moved sideways very unrighteously, Dick looked at Marina with resentment, and then fell heavily on the lawn......
"There was chaos on the sidelines! Dick looked like he was being pressed down at the moment, and Vicente seemed to be apologizing to the manager......"
The narrator laughed, and then he saw Dick rub his ass and get up from the lawn, and then flew up and kicked Marina beside him......
"Bastard, who told you to dodge!"
Seeing Marriner jumping away quickly, Dick was angry: "Invite me to drink at night!" ”
"My wife won't let me go to nightclubs...... Marina replied with an innocent face.
Dick was so angry that his teeth itched, this guy, last time I had a treat, I drank more than anyone else, and at this time he became a strict wife? Isn't it just that I'm running in circles with you, a guy who has no righteousness......
After the chaos subsided, the game began again, Dick glared at Marriner angrily, and then sat back in his place, where he immediately heard Marriner muttering secretly, "Who told me to say things that offended the players......"
Dick rolled his eyes, and then fell silent—he felt a little sorry for Marina for that......
"Now it's flat!" Dick turned to Marina and muttered a word.
Although Dick and Marriner's actions are considered by many people to be infighting among the Atletico Madrid coaching staff, but it has not had much impact on the performance of the Atletico Madrid players, they know the relationship between Dick and Marriner, the two of them cooperate quite well in the second team, Dick only brought Marriner an assistant when he put out the fire, and after becoming the official head coach, Marriner was appointed as his first assistant coach.
After taking the lead again, the morale of the Atletico Madrid players began to be even higher, and Valencia fought fiercely on the pitch, they did not shrink, nor did they use negative tactics and play, but continued to fight against Valencia in the midfield, Belleron continued to organize and pass back and forth in the midfield, and he wanted to prove to Zakhovic with his performance - don't you score? But I can get my teammates to score more goals!
That proved to come true in the 67th minute, when Bellerón unexpectedly picked up his right foot after getting rid of Zakhovic who was pestering him in midfield, and the ball arced in the air and landed accurately in front of Jardel, who was successful in an offside position, who cut forward at high speed and then raised his foot to push the ball into the far corner of the net before Canizares attacked!
Three to one! Atletico extend their lead at home!
There have been plenty of chances for both sides during this time, but Atletico's advantage over Valencia is that their attacking players are mature, with Jadel taking advantage of the opportunity and the young Carew's squandering two chances before – that's the difference between Valencia's attack and Atletico's!
Both sides have a lot of newcomers on the offensive line, and the cooperation is not tacit, but even if Karui has good talent, he is still inexperienced, and before this he only had a season of playing experience in the Norwegian league, what about Jardel? At the age of twenty-seven, he is at the peak of his game, and he has accumulated a lot of experience in Brazil and Portugal, and with the right tactical support, he can show his scoring ability to the fullest!
The fact that he was able to score twice against Valencia was a testament to how good Jardel is.
Taking a 3-1 lead was a blow to Valencia, but Valencia is not an easy team to break down, and Atletico have cut off Mendieta and the rest of the players to a large extent, but for Valencia, they still have the strength to resist......
Five minutes after Atletico extended their lead, Valencia quickly pulled a point back - there was some luck in the goal, Mendieta's cross was pushed out of the box by Thuram, but the veteran Italian Carboni who inserted the assist met the falling ball and fired a direct volley, the ball drew an arc in the air, and then plunged into the corner of the goal - the world wave!
This goal, which is full of luck elements, makes the game that is almost no suspense become suspenseful again!
In this case, Dick sent his ace substitute - Cruise came on and replaced Camoranesi, and Atletico Madrid once again changed the double striker to strengthen the attack!
When the two-goal lead turned into a goal, Dick chose to attack rather than defend, and chose to take risks rather than be conservative – a move that undoubtedly suited the Spaniard's appetite, and after he made this adjustment, the stands resounded with cheers from Atletico fans, and many commentators applauded Dick's choice.
Dick raised his hand triumphantly to the stands to signal, in fact, he is not a blind pursuit of good-looking coaches, but the game is played on this, the outcome is not his special concern, to be able to face Valencia as always from beginning to end to maintain a strong fighting spirit and not lose to the opponent's morale, this is the most important thing!
Of course, this doesn't mean that Dick doesn't care about winning or losing, and sending Cruise is also to extend the lead again - so far in the game, Valencia's defense has become more and more unstable, and they will strengthen their attack more in the future, which means that they have more holes to drill in the backline, and Cruise is a good player at exploiting loopholes, he is not sitting in vain on the bench, he will figure out what he should do after he comes on the court, how to do it- That's the biggest factor why he often scores goals after coming off the bench!
The so-called magic is often just more than ordinary people can't see!
Now, Cruise's magic is back in play.
When the two sides were entangled until the 81st minute, Atletico Madrid won a corner, Belleron took the penalty himself, under the cover of Gamara and Jardel, Cruise appeared in front of the post ghostly, and then jumped high to meet the falling ball, and shook his head to attack the goal!
Four to two! Atletico have completely laid the lead at home! And Cruise also scored his second goal in La Liga - but his playing time was only half that of Jardel!
"Magical Cruise! Fantastic subs! This is already his third goal at Atletico! Two of them came after coming off the bench...... Such a substitute is really eye-catching! How did Dick find out about him? You must know that his performance in the Eredivisie can only be regarded as in the upper mid-table...... I'm sorry, I've said it many times, but I'll say it again – Dick's transfer operation this summer has been fantastic! ”
