Chapter 202: Qu Bai Comes on the Field
"Harry Kane shoots from distance! It's a pity that he shot too well and was confiscated by goalkeeper Ru'an! β
"Sun Xingmin's 45-degree angle hanging door! Above the beam, it's dangerous! β
"Ali close-up! Hit the Coventry player and pop the bottom line! β
"Alexander blocked the black and hard Wanyama shot with his face! Brother Alexander, do you think your face is not good-looking, and you want plastic surgery? β
Huang Jianxiang on the commentary seat seemed to be more chicken than the players on the field.
When Liu Jianhong saw this game, he couldn't help but think of the game when the Huaguo team challenged Harbour City away in the top 40 last year. It was also a match between a strong team and a weak team. The weak team Harbour City also used intensive defense to delay the Chinese team's march into the top 12.
There are similarities and differences between the two games. The biggest difference is that Coventry, which is in a weak and dense defence, is now a goal-solver.
Liu Jianhong said: "We all remember the 1-0 upset victory over France in Senegal in the '02 World Cup. Hopefully Coventry can be Senegal in the FA Cup! β
The remaining 20 minutes of the first half almost became a half-time attack drill for Tottenham Hotspur. Coventry's players withstood their frantic attacks with tenacious defence.
At the end of the first half, Coventry City temporarily led Tottenham Hotspur 1:0! This is a result that hundreds of millions of fans have not expected. Who would have thought that Coventry, the weak League Two team that Ali said "I had never heard of", would be able to lead the star-studded second in the Premier League?
There was jubilation in the Coventry dressing room. Everyone was excited. Liu Yun has a bit of the meaning that everyone is drunk and I am sober.
He walked up to the head coach George Sr., lowered his voice and said: "Coach George, if it goes on like this, it will be a matter of time before the ball is lost." β
Although Liu Yun's words are not good, they are true. In the face of the densely defended bus formation and Wang Bake, maybe the fifth-rate players such as Gao Linsman, Zhang Mosi, and Wuqiu Wang in Huaguo will be helpless. However, Liu Yun is not facing fifth-rate players, but Harry Kane, Sun Xingmin and other European stars! As the saying goes, who doesn't die an old man in a hundred years? After being beaten passively and without fighting back, it was only a matter of time before Coventry conceded the goal.
Old George was thoughtful.
After a long time, he made a decision that shocked another group of players.
"In the second half, Qu Bai replaced Manla!" Old George said loudly.
Alexander, Ruan and these players were dumbfounded. Such an important game, replacing the M in the LM combination? Replaced by the inexperienced eighteen-year-old Qu Bai? Is old George crazy?
How can a man like George Sr., who only changed his color before the Alpine collapse, go crazy?
Old George had his own considerations.
Qu Bai's physical resistance is very weak, like a bean sprout that has just developed. However, his speed is even higher than that of Manla!
Instead of letting Xiao Hei go to Gangwan Yama's big black hard, it is better to let Qu Bai use his speed advantage to find counterattack opportunities near the midfield and fight hard!
Qu Bai was a little flattered.
Big brother, no, the old father-in-law Liu Yun walked up to Qu Bai and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be nervous!" Lie dormant near midfield and look for opportunities, and once I have the ball, look for opportunities to play long balls from behind! When the time comes, you will come up with 11.4 seconds in 100 meters! β
Looking at his idol Liu Yun's firm eyes, the young general Qu Bai's uneasy heart gradually relaxed.
The second half is about to start.
Captain Liu Yun only said one sentence to motivate his teammates: "Let those players and fans of Tottenham Hotspur not forget the name Coventry for three years!" β
At the beginning of the second half, the fourth official raised the substitution card.
Qu Bai stood in front of the sideline!
Huang Jianxiang couldn't believe his eyes: "At the critical moment, Coventry was replaced by a young player, the hope star of our country, fast horse Qubai?!" It's so exciting! Qu Bai's position on the field is a striker. Together with Liu Yun, he will form the attack line of the Coventry team! β
Liu Jianhong was also a little excited: "Starting from the three foreign guns of Yanjing Gui'an, foreign aid has now become the main force on the front line of major clubs in Huachao. It is almost impossible for the Chinese artillery to find a foothold in their own league. This is sad. But today, an old Chinese gun and a small Chinese gun actually constitute the offensive line of a century-old British team! Opened a Huaguo store! sang the biography of the two people of Huaguo! It's really exciting! β
How does Liu Jianhong know that Coventry's current attack line is not only the Huaguo store, but also the father-in-law and son-in-law store!
After all, Huang Jianxiang is a 20-year-old football veteran and professional commentator. He's commented on more games than Husk has ever eaten. He saw the door: "I think the old George is trying to use the fast horse Qubo to attack the Tottenham Hotspur defense on the counter-attack!" β
Liu Jianhong has eaten, no, Liu Jianhong has commented that the game is no less than that of Huang Jianxiang. He is also an experienced commentator: "Yes, offense is the best defense. A one-goal lead is not safe. If you blindly defend intensively in your own half and give all the time of possession to Tottenham, it will be a matter of time before you concede a goal. You must know that Tottenham's attacking line is not a parallel import. Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Ali, Dembele, Eriksenγγγγγγ I don't dare to say that I am the top in the world, but I can still call it a first-class player! β
At the start of the second half, Tottenham continued to attack. Tottenham's big names are in a bit of a hurry. Yes, not to mention not scoring a goal in the first half, it also allowed the weak team Coventry to take the lead. Such a shame is really unbearable.
Ali, who is not afraid of tigers at the beginning, shows the true nature of the hot stinging tumor at this time! Several times he got the ball, and his teammates ran good opportunities, but he didn't pass, but chose to shoot rashly or force a breakthrough.
Harry Kane shouted at Ali with some anger: "Ali, what are you doing! β
Qu Bai has not been involved in the defense, he has been lying dormant near the midfield, looking for opportunities.
Tottenham's players are getting more and more impatient. Wanyama, Raeder, and Walker unconsciously moved forward. The Tottenham defence first moved forward, and as the game wore on, the forward movement became a forward insertion!
There is a trick in the Chinese art of war, which is to lure the enemy into depth.
The Coventry team's Iron Shell King Eight Formation has now played a role in luring the enemy into depth! Now they only have one chance, a chance to stab Tottenham in the back!
Tottenham Hotspur realcore Eriksen organizes the attack! Distributed to Sun Xingmin on the side. Son Heung-min cut in at a 45-degree angle and crossed Harry Kane! Harry Kane strikes hard in the box!
The shot was powerful! Too many people in the penalty area is both a good thing and a bad thing for goalkeeper Ruan.
His teammates blocked Harry Kane's vision the moment he shot! He didn't make a save in time!
Fortunately, Ruan subconsciously moved two steps to the right, and Kane's powerful shot hit Ruan's thigh! The ball flies out of the box! Fell to the feet of Liu Yun, who was defending at the front of the penalty area!
Liu Yun takes the ball!
