Chapter 46: Turning the Tide of Danger

Two minutes into the second half, Millwall raised their cards for substitutions.

Millwall's number 19, who is also a player and manager, will also feature former Chelsea captain and former England international Denice Wise, who is part-time captain on the pitch.

The reporters in the media gallery were immediately excited.

However, the reason for their excitement is not because of Denice Wise's appearance, in fact, reporters don't care about Wise's appearance, Wise is a big star, but after all, he is 38 years old, and at the end of his career, he often plays for Millwall, so there is nothing to pay special attention to.

They pay attention to the Millwall dugout!

When Denice-Wise came out, the only person left in the Millwall dugout who could serve as the interim leader was the young 'Weibo celebrity' in his early twenties, but he didn't have any professional player experience, nor did he have any experience as an assistant coach, let alone lead the team.

So what does he rely on to command the game?

Perhaps in the next half of the game, Millwall will only be free to play.

When many reporters thought so, something more interesting happened, and some reporters checked Weibo and found that the 'personality publicity' updated the news again--

"#米尔沃尔VSζ‘‘εΎ·ε…°#

Wise decided to play. I'm rooting for his decision because of his individual ability to help the team get goals!

But I also realised that I was going to be Millwall's temporary team leader! It was a bit sudden! What a surprise!

At this moment, my mood is worried!

But I'll definitely try to help Millwall win! ”

A reporter who finished reading Weibo followed up and laughed, "He's really interesting, he's a temporary team leader, and he's still in the mood to post on Weibo, it seems that he's not nervous at all!" ”

"I believe this is the real idea, he is very worried, if I am replaced, it will never be better than him. But when we retweet, we may be able to ignore the last sentence. ”

This suggestion was supported by the surrounding journalists.

Subsequently, many reporters present reposted the flamboyant Weibo, but deliberately omitted the last sentence 'But I will definitely work hard to help Millwall win', and some did not make any comments on this sentence at all.

So their retweet made it clear to more fans, "In the game between Millwall and Sunderland, there was a 'Weibo celebrity' in his early 20s as the temporary leader, and the other party was very nervous. ”

In most people's understanding, "Millwall is like this, let alone tie the score, thank God for being able to get through the game!" ”

At the same time, Zhang Yang is also worried about the work of the team leader.

As the media reporters thought, he didn't have any coaching experience and didn't know exactly what to do now, and when the team was playing normally, he seemed to sit still and be a spectator on the sidelines.

However, Zhang Yang is still clear about his priorities.

Queens Park Rangers coach Bridges has taught him first-hand how to command – when you see danger in advance, or see an opportunity, you make some targeted changes.

That's what he does.

Then Zhang Yang began to wait, he was a little expecting that the game would be more ups and downs, then he would have a chance to play, and some hoped that the game would go smoothly, and it would be best if Millwall could score consecutive goals, so he could sit back and wait for the interim coach to have a perfect result.

For the first five minutes, nothing happened.

Maybe for the players of both teams, the game is still very exciting, for example, Sunderland almost took advantage of the opportunity to break through Millwall's door, but for Zhang Yang, it means that nothing happened, anyway, he didn't score in the end, he didn't need to do anything at all.

The same is true for the second five minutes.

Zhang Yang suddenly felt that having the ability of 'prediction' also had a bad side, because the games were all according to the script, and he didn't have the surprise and expectation of watching the game at all.

"It's boring!"

Zhang Yang sighed.

"What's not interesting?" A voice came from the side.

Zhang Yang turned his head to see that it was Tim Clancy, an Irishman who was a year younger than himself, and he laughed, "I said the game was boring and there were no goals. ”

"Isn't it good not to score a goal? I think you're going to be nervous. You're probably directing a game for the first time, right? ”

"Of course." Zhang Yang shrugged, "It's even the first time I've sat here. ”

"But I can't see it, you seem to be relaxed, you don't care about the game at all, you just look up every now and then."

Cranch's voice was sincere.

"You're very observant. By the way, don't you feel nervous about me? Zhang Yang suddenly asked.

"Nervous? Why? ”

'Because I'm the temporary manager, I now have the right to play any player, including you, of course. Zhang Yang said it very seriously.

"When you say that, I suddenly get a little nervous......"

"Haha!"

The two were talking and laughing, Zhang Yang looked up at the game, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly got up and stood up, "It's time for me to work!" ”

Cranch was a little confused.

Zhang Yang stood up and walked to the sidelines, and in the 'foresight' picture just now, he saw the danger of the situation, Sunderland took advantage of the foot ball opportunity, and the midfielder followed the ball into the Millwall goal.

Now he's the leader!

If the opponent wants to score, it is equivalent to slapping him in the face, which is absolutely not good!

When Zhang Yang stood on the sidelines, many cameras pointed over, and media reporters were curious, what is this 'Weibo celebrity' going to do?

However, Zhang Yang just stood there and did nothing, and the others lost interest.

Then came the corner.

When the linesman raised the flag and made a penalty, Zhang Yang immediately looked for an opportunity, shouted the name of 'Darren', and kept waving to the backcourt.

Darren Ward was a little confused.

He saw the flamboyant beckoning and heard the other party calling 'Darren', but, "Is that guy calling me?" ”

Darren Ward confirmed to his teammates that everyone else was sure, "There's no other Darren on the team!" ”

"Okay!"

Darren Ward confirmed again to Dennis Wise.

Wise was a little worried about what Zhang Yang would do, but he couldn't let a temporary team leader keep shouting from the sidelines, so he let Darren Ward pass.

After Darren Ward walked over, Zhang Yang immediately said quickly, "Time is running out, you must remember my words, you will be standing in the middle of the small penalty area line for a while, and the people next to you don't have to care, but you must pay attention to the players who are scrambling behind the opponent, understand?" ”

Darren Ward nodded in understanding.

On the way back to the restricted area, he suddenly realized, "This guy actually remembered my name?" Am I so special in the team? ”

Sunderland are ready to kick the ball.

Ward wasn't there just now, he was usually asked to come to the front point of defense, and a teammate was already standing, Ward didn't know how to stand, and then he remembered Zhang Yang's advice.

"It's just a foot ball anyway, just listen to him!"

So Ward stood on the line of the small penalty area, and while everyone else was paying attention to the penalty takers, he kept an eye on the opposite direction of the goal to prevent an opposing player from suddenly cutting in.

Sunderland put forward a corner!

The ball crosses an arc and falls down to the final point in the middle of the penalty area.

A Sunderland midfielder took two steps forward and wanted to get the ball first!

Darren Ward's position is better!

He was standing in the middle of the small penalty line, and when he saw that the football was not far away, he immediately stuck to the main position and pushed the ball out hard.

"Ward cleared the ball!"

Stadium commentator Mike Johnson praised Ward's solid defensive performance.

That's all there is to this ball.

Everyone else didn't care, after all, it was just a foot ball, and it wasn't a big deal to kick it out and be cleared by a defender.

Darren Ward's heart was shocked!

In fact, he didn't think about defending that position at all before, but under Zhang Yang's reminder, coupled with the fact that his position was occupied by his teammates, he decided to pay close attention, but he didn't expect the ball to happen to that position, and then he easily cleared out.

But what if you don't pay attention?

Looking at the momentum of the opposing player just now, it will definitely be very dangerous if you hit the ball!

Darren Ward was a little scared, "Luckily! Fortunately! That Chinese guessing contest is really accurate. ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”

There was nothing wrong with the next game, and Zhang Yang also returned to the coach's seat and continued to do nothing.

Cranch couldn't understand what he had just done, so he asked curiously, "What did you say to Darren?" ”

"I said, let him pay attention to the outside of the small penalty area."

"Is that so?"

"Didn't you see him pull it out?"

"Okay."

Cranch wasn't quite convinced, but didn't continue to say anything.

Zhang Yang sat steadily, looking forward to Millwall's goal, he helped Millwall save the day just now, so it should be Millwall's turn to have a good chance next, right?

Ten minutes later, he was still waiting for a red flag.

"It's going to work again!"

Zhang Yang sighed, stood up again, and under the attention of many cameras, he called in Joey Healy.

It's a lot easier this time.

Joey Healy is on this side of the pitch.

"Joey, if the other party breaks through along the way for a while, don't hesitate, just put it down! Do you understand? ”

Zhang Yang's expression was a little vicious.

Joey Healy was taken aback, he actually didn't have a good impression of Zhang Yang, but when he saw the other party's serious advice, and the vicious word 'put down' in his words, he immediately nodded in agreement.

Healy wasn't a good guy.

On the football field, he is a villain, and his notoriety is no worse than that of Denise Wise, except that he is not as famous as Wise.

Two minutes later, Sunderland attacked.

The opposing full-back broke through quickly with the ball, and Joey Healy was broken through by the opponent in the first half, which also led to Sunderland's goal, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking of the flamboyant reminder just now, Healy played an exaggerated tackle of 'only keep people, no ball'.

At that moment, Healy thought, "The team leader made me do this!" ”

He is full of confidence!

The opponent was put to the ground by Healy without suspense, lying on the grass for a while, and the next good news was that Healy was a frontal tackle, not shoveling the opponent's ankle, the opponent was just tripped, so the referee only showed a yellow card.

Sunderland's fans were furious and they were swearing at Joey Healy.

Healy was gone, and he might still be enjoying it.

Zhang Yang was very satisfied with the interruption of Sunderland's attack, the plot of 'foreknowledge' was rewritten, and the next goal was naturally gone.
