Chapter 18 Wait for the time to move

Hydward held an A4 blank piece of paper in his hand, his expression was serious, and so did Ricciardo, and the two exchanged something in a low voice.

I don't know what to communicate with a blank piece of paper, and I talk awkwardly. However, Paul Jewell was obviously bluffed, and he had already communicated the details of the specific defense with his assistant.

At the moment when Paul turned around, Ricardo rushed to the field, with his right index finger as the axis and his left index finger around a few circles, an obvious substitution signal.

Jewell saw this scene and smiled heartily. But he didn't notice that Ward made a "three" on his chest, slid up and down, and the player who saw the gesture nodded imperceptibly, and a taste of conspiracy brewed on the field.

……

Andrews wasted another chance, and after the start of the second half, the defenders defending him did not give even a single bit of space at all, and the shots hit the anti-aircraft guns on several occasions.

Margery was the player who saw the boss signaling and rubbed his aching thigh, and Andrews didn't have time to pay attention.

Haim won another aerial duel in the box, and the ball flew high and flew straight towards Bowyer in midfield.

The Englishman was completely the engine of the midfield for the game, and he wanted to push the ball back and didn't even notice the lads rushing out of the box.

Margery pressed forward in an instant, intercepted the ball, and changed the situation on the field dramatically.

…………

Starting two games in a row is a huge test for a 16-year-old. Physically, psychologically, it is devastating, to put it mildly, Hydward is squeezing his potential and pulling out the seedlings to help him grow.

Margery was physically close to freezing, his bare feet and thighs aching, and his lower abdomen felt like he was strangled. Anyone who runs knows that the so-called "pole" in sports, and it will be much easier for people to endure the past, which is called breaking through the "pole".

It was the fourth time in fifteen minutes that he had experienced this condition, and each time it was harder and harder. It's all supported by willpower.

On the one hand, Paul's tactics for penetrating Portsmouth are very simple, to break the face with points, and Margery is the shortcoming in the eyes of Ipswich. On the other hand, he has no experience with his own physical distribution issues, and his grappling with Andrews consumes a lot of health.

However, "Short Board" Margery was surprisingly tenacious, he put down the ball, made a slight adjustment, tensed his right leg muscles, and picked the ball out on his toes.

A beautiful diagonal long pass, the football went straight towards Lawrence as if it had eyes.

……

In the last round of the Championship, if you have watched how Barnsley were beaten, you will know how the Irish striker took the ball, stopped the ball and completed the shot.

Lawrence's solid fundamentals are evident to all, and the football at his feet is more obedient than his hands. Collins gave it his all and stared at him as the coach said, not giving him the slightest chance.

The ball was still flying in the sky, and it looked like it was passing a little high, and even with a basketball player like Kobe, he might not be able to catch it when he jumped.

Lawrence's eyes were on the ball, Collins' eyes were on him, and Ipswich's left centre-back was keeping an eye on the situation from time to time.

The Irishman took two steps back and made a gesture of waiting for the midfielder to respond. The two defenders followed the manager's instructions and their own habits.

The missile found its target and landed in a completely empty area.

On the sidelines, Hydward stared at the far end of the ball, his hands clenched into fists, and if there was an animal to describe it at this time, it was the eagle, which was about to hunt its prey.

Ipswich fans in the stands gasped as a yellow flash of lightning rushed out of the stadium as Portsmouth wore the yellow shirt and it was none other than Etuhu.

He felt like he was back to the feeling of being whistling through the Premier League when he played for Manchester City, and no one could stop Nigeria's leopards as long as they started.

With Collins not around, it was as if Etuhu had broken his bonds, and the entire side road was his hallway.

Starting with Arjen Robben, it seemed to be fashionable to kick the wing backfoot overnight, kicking the right with the left foot, kicking the left with the right foot, cutting inside and hitting the goal, and tried and tested repeatedly.

However, there are too many teams that have not found the trick here, the first is not all Robben, and the second involves a deeper tactical level.

In 2011, world football did not give a clear definition of Robben's way of playing. It was only after a few years that the concept of "inside forward" began to take shape.

Inside-forwards are used to cutting through the opposition full-backs and the open space between the centre-backs on the side of the full-backs, and Ward is used to calling this the "wing-center junction".

But that's where the danger comes in, he needs the ball, a lot of the ball, and a repetitive assault on the area.

It is extremely easy for the inside forwards to get caught up in the encirclement of the opposing defenders, and the full-backs and centre-backs are "closed", and few have a way to break through.

In recent years, Robben has been in the limelight, and his style of play has really damaged a large number of players or teams who are trying to imitate him. Backfoot wingers are often synonymous with "one-man players" and "offensive finishers".

Hydward happened to have some research on the character.

Lawrence's retreat was completely deliberate, taking a step back and opening up the sky. Football is ultimately a game of space, creating space and using space.

The inside forward is a role that uses space, especially when it is compressed into tight flanks. It can be used to break through, pass the ball, shoot the goal, you can do it.

Lawrence is the one who creates space, and isn't the good thing for a back-posting striker to drop back and take away defenders?

Collins plus a central defender were all taken away, and Etuhu had a Siberian steppe in front of him.

Is there any other option than to run?

Yellow lightning plunged into the enemy's abdomen, and Ipswich chased back to fill in the gap, all of whom followed the butt and ate the fart.

Ward leaned forward, assistant coach Walker in the dugout stood up, and everyone left their seats, ready to celebrate the moment.

Etuhu, you can't get in with such a single knife, Lao Tzu's new hatred and old hatred will be counted with you, and I will report to the reserve team tomorrow! Hydward gritted his teeth.

The Ipswich goalkeeper spread his huge arms like an ancient beast rushing out.

The atmosphere at Portman Road was so tense that it was suffocating, and only Etuhu was unhurried, pedaling his bicycle unusually coquettishly, and shaking it at a small angle.

The goalkeeper threw himself out like a hungry tiger, and the leaves on the ground could be shaken.

Etuhu completely thinks of himself as Ronaldo, not Cristiano Ronaldo, but the big Ronaldo who just said goodbye to the world on Valentine's Day this year.

He gave the goalkeeper away!

"Bang !!" The soccer ball grabs the net, and the momentum sinks.

Etuhu was killed with a single blow in 77 minutes to level 1-1. Portsmouth's 3,000 expeditionary force roared loudly as the Ipswich fans silenced them.

They shouted, "Pompey, forward, forward, forward" in celebration as if they had already won.

……

Margery collapsed limply on the turf in the backfield, his right foot muscles aching sharply, and he unconsciously straightened his toes.

He had cramps, he couldn't see the expression on his face, and his ears were full of the familiar singing voice of Portsmouth.
