Chapter 143: Attack and Counterattack

"England continued to attack, but several wonderful shots were saved by Oblak, and if it wasn't for Oblak's courageous performance, Slovenia would have been out of suspense in this game."

When Jones picked up the ball and was ready to attack again, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game, and England went into the break with a one-goal advantage at half-time thanks to Kane's goal.

When the players on both sides left the field, the fans in the stands near the players' tunnel shouted the names of the two heroes of the team's goal, and some guys frantically stripped off their shirts, and then took them in their hands and waved the clothes in their hands vigorously.

When Jones walked back to the locker room, he was burying his head, Jones was thinking about how he would score in the second half, and in the locker room, Jones sat in his place and began to wait for the second half of the game.

After Southgate walked into the dressing room, he first praised the team's performance in the first half, and then began to explain the tactics of the second half, and finally, Southgate came to Rashford, Southgate hoped that Rashgate would control his emotions in the second half of the game, not affect the second half of the game, that shot did not go into Rashford's emotions after a little emotional control.

Marcus Rashford did not question Southgate's words, nodding firmly, and the fifteen minutes of the break were short, with players from both sides quickly appearing on the pitch to await the start of the second half.

At this time, after fifteen minutes of halftime to recover Jones, Jones's task now is to score goals and score more goals to pave the way for himself to win the main position.

"Jones! There was no one around him to defend him! Header goal! Chance for the English team! ”

With a loud roar from the commentator, in the originally crowded crowd in the penalty area, Jones suddenly appeared in everyone's sight, he jumped up, faced the football in the air, shook his head hard, and pushed the football towards the goal!

This time, Oblak didn't have time to react at all, but the ball hit the post, made a loud noise, and then bounced in front of the goal, Cesar didn't dare to move forward to clear, and quickly drove the ball to the stands, so as to make their goal safe for the time being.

There was a huge sound of regret from the fans in the stands, and many of the fans of the home team had already jumped up and were ready to cheer for the goal, but when they heard the clanging sound, they could only stomp their feet regretfully.

Jones, who landed on the ground, looked up to the sky and yelled, he thought the ball should have it! Unexpectedly, Oblak had no choice but to take the goal, but the post blocked the goal, is this still his home field!

After Jones vented his regret that the goal was not scored, he gave a thumbs up to Henderson, who passed the ball to him, and shouted in his mouth, "That's it!" Go on! ”

Southgate on the sidelines looked at this scene and smiled, this young man is not modest at all, he regards himself as the core, what makes Southgate a little relieved is that the other players do not seem to show obvious disgust for Jones's crazy attack after the second half, of course, this is because of Jones's excellent ability, on the football field, after all, he still relies on strength to speak!

'It was England's second threatening attack in the first 10 minutes of the second half! First shot from Marcus Rashford! The second time Jones's header hit the goal, after the half-time break, the England players' attack began to go crazy again! ”

"After the start of the second half of the game, Slovenia changed the good state in the first half, Slovenia seemed to be sleepwalking in the second half, England's attack was still the same sharp, especially Jones, he was very active in the front court in the second half, and Cesar was more and more difficult to defend Jones! After Jones became more familiar with Cesar's situation, Cesar's success rate in defending Jones has been declining! ”

"Judging from the performance of both sides in these ten minutes, England still showed an unbeaten performance in the group stage, obviously the second half was better than the first, but Slovenia's attack was not as sharp in the second half as in the first half, if it wasn't for Oblak's bravery, they probably wouldn't have conceded only one goal!"

Then, after an attack by England, Jones had another chance to shoot, but this time the shot was too good and Oblak fell to the ground to save the ball.

Oblak got up a little embarrassed, and he shouted at his guards: "Jokic, Cesar, what are you two doing?" Watch out for the people you want to guard against! "Oblak has made four saves in the past 10 minutes, and Oblak naturally has a fire in his heart.

The two who were complained by Oblak gasped and waved their hands at him: "There will be no next time!" These two animals are amazing! The two were also teased by Jones and Kane.

Jones was ready to grab a corner kick in the penalty area, Jones also knew that the header was his weakness, he was very smart and did not choose to resist the opponent, but played his flexibility and speed, as well as the judgment of the landing point of the football, in the front court, especially in the penalty area, constantly running, one will run from here to there, one will run from there to another place, Cesar, who is responsible for marking Jones, is now very tired.

Cesar's physical consumption is extremely high, and he can't help but follow Jones, because, as long as he doesn't follow Jones, Jones dares to shoot from a distance at any time, Jones is now using running to consume the opponent's physical strength and attention, once Cesar is inattentive, or his physical fitness can't keep up with his pace, then, Jones can give a fatal blow.

A corner kick in England, Rashford hoisted the corner into the penalty area, Jones was under the pressure of Jokic, and did not fight for the football, Oblak nodded, Jokic's ability to defend high-altitude balls is still very strong, and England's attack seems to have been curbed with the termination of this attack.

Slovenia came to their senses, and Katanic also waved his hand and passed on the tactical requirements of the counterattack to his players! He asked the whole team to take advantage of the momentary pause after England's frenzied attack, launch a counterattack, and try to score a goal and equalize.

Seeing Slovenia start to counterattack, Southgate called the core of the midfield Henderson to the sidelines, conveying a new tactical intent, England after a frantic attack, now to defend!

Slovenia is now paying more attention to pressing, and the positions of the two central defenders Cesar and Mevlia have also advanced a lot, and even pressed to the half of the court to grab the ball at one point. It's just that he suddenly made his players press all over the field, unless Katanic didn't take into account the physical consumption of his players!
