Chapter Seventy-One: The End
Kodic laughed to himself on the sidelines: "A player like Jones has no experience in the team, it's really a treasure for me, and in less than two years, I'm sure he will surpass most players." Kodic silently calculated in his heart, if I could pick up a few more players like this, wouldn't my frontcourt configuration be invincible!
Kodic retracted his whimsical thinking, and he thought about it again, most of the players like Jones have proven their worth with their strength in the five major leagues, how can there be such players waiting to find him, and Jones still finds someone to recommend him. ”
The game restarted, the ball was quickly transferred to the feet of Cesc Fabregas, the players of the main side all pressed over the midfield, they did not give up the attack because of the goal just now, they still trust their own attack, the goal just now is the evidence, but the opponent's cooperation is indeed perfect, and the luck is also good, only to cause the other side to score two goals in a row, and now there is only one goal left, and it will be done, so the main players have decided to press forward and get back the lost field, and they can't let the substitutes look down on themselves.
Fabregas's strength is indeed extraordinary, along the wing, he used his body to eat, used technique to shake off the passing route, and passed the ball to the top of Costa's head at the edge of the penalty area, Costa's disadvantage is that he is slow, but in the header battle, he will not suffer at all, otherwise, he will not be the main striker, in the scramble with Christensen, Costa put the ball into the penalty area.
The ball flew to the position of the penalty area, and before the football landed, Torres who was waiting for it was directly a volley, and in the small penalty area, a total of 12 players were standing there at this time, and the football knocked down Skoll's leg and flew out of the bottom line, Skoll smiled helplessly and said sorry to Torres, if he didn't block it, maybe he would have scored.
Caballero kicked the ball to the midfield, after a scramble, the main side got the ball again, Fabregas as the core of the organization, the players handed the ball more to his feet, this time Fabregas did not rush to attack, the training pitch is small, there are many players, and the way of attacking from the position is indeed greater.
The players of the main team have good individual skills, but comparatively speaking, Costa and Torres will be at a higher level, so the attack is more concentrated on the two, Fabregas is ready to pass the ball to the feet of the two at any time, suddenly he found that not far away Costa beckoned to him, around him, only Scolin was watching alone, and immediately understood.
But he didn't rush to get the ball over, but an acceleration, a quick stop, then another acceleration, another stop, and after three times, Cesc Fabregas stopped his movements, pulled back sharply, took the ball two steps back, and then sent the ball to Costa's feet with a long pass.
With his experience, Costa ran to the sideline, just on the outside of the right edge of the penalty area, in this position, good wide players, have always started in a way that seems to pass and shoot, so that the goalkeeper does not dare to attack easily, after Costa touched the ball, he picked up the defender, and the football also flew into the penalty area.
Costa, who started to burst into the penalty area again, faced Christensen who quickly made up the defense, he didn't have any extra moves, just took the ball, squeezed Christensen's body directly and broke through, in the penalty area, Christensen didn't dare to pull him with his hands, because assistant coach Osilai was watching nearby.
Costa, who had been between the two of them, slowed down a little, stepped on the ball with his right foot, pulled the ball to the right, broke in, glanced at the goalkeeper's position with his eyes, and before another defender could rush over, he shot the ball, and the ball flew to the far corner of the goal close to the ground.
2-2, the main team tied the score, Cesc Fabregas immediately rushed over, patted Costa on the shoulder, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the tacit understanding of the two did not need to say anything.
After the score was equalized, Jones no longer had physical strength, Jones began to run tirelessly, he was like an iron man who was never tired, he could be seen in that position in the stadium, whoever got the ball he stared at, Kodic was secretly happy after seeing it on the sidelines, Kodic's tactical ideas need Jones to have this physical strength, there can be no more such people in a team, and there can be no more, but if there can be one, it can often lead the whole team.
However, in the face of the active scramble of the main lineup, the substitute lineup is obviously a little flustered, and they can get close to the penalty area of the main lineup by cooperating, but if they want to break through one step forward, it has become a luxury, except for Jones and Pedro, all the players have basically shrunk into their own half, trying to keep the current draw through defense.
Seeing the assistant coach look at his watch, Jones knew that the game was coming to an end after winning the ball, without saying a word, he quickly broke through to the opponent's position with the ball, and at the same time made a forward pressure posture to Pedro, after two twos and one, Jones had reached the top of the arc of the penalty area, this time he did not hesitate, and directly shot a long shot.
Courtois was very concentrated this time, he saved the ball in the penalty area, most of the main players were near the opponent's penalty area, the ball was still obtained by Pedro, and Pedro, who pressed up, received the saved ball, went directly to the bottom, and inserted it into the penalty area along the bottom line, which is his strong point, and saw that two defenders came to defend him, he immediately chose to pass the ball, knocked the ball back to Jones behind him, and continued to insert it in.
Jones did not stop the ball but passed the ball directly to Segura in front of the big penalty area, and Segura re-stuffed the ball to Pedro, who had been inserted into the box, Pedro stopped after getting the ball, quickly looked at the position of all the players in the box, he flicked the ball to his inside, and suddenly a pick, the football flew straight to the goal.
Courtois quickly stepped back and jumped to block the ball, but before he could reach the ball, he fell to the turf and the ball bounced under the crossbar into the goal, and Pedro immediately rushed to Segura and thanked him, because 60 percent of the credit for the goal should be attributed to Segura's pass, and the other 40 percent to Jones's exquisite pass.
There were still not many chances for the main side in the remaining minutes, and although they also organized a few exquisite combinations in the midfield, they did not score, and the confrontation ended in a victory for the substitute side, and the final score was 3-2.
Pedro said excitedly: "Thank you two for your help, otherwise this ball would not be easy to score." ”
"It's okay, don't forget our big meal, haha." Segura said with a smile.
Pedro said helplessly: "I can't forget, I have something to do tonight, please both of you tomorrow." ”
Jones replied, "Well, I should get a house too, and I'll look for it in the afternoon." ”
Because many players in the team participated in the World Cup qualifiers, and their current state is relatively sluggish, after the game, Kodic did not arrange other training programs, and directly let everyone go back to the dormitory to rest.
In the afternoon, Jones called and told Ball that he wanted to get a house, and asked him to find a nearby property for him to choose a house to stabilize.
