Chapter 51: This Bastard!

readx;

The break was so precious to Reading that they had just returned to the dressing room with manager Michael Brown. Harvin couldn't wait to start his speech and make adjustments. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He first boosted the morale of the team and then praised Grayton, who was sent off for a red card, which was a huge psychological comfort to Grayton. Because when he saw the team falling behind just now, he was very frustrated in the locker room alone, he thought that his foul not only did not make Chu Zhongtian leave the court injured, but made his team have one less person, and now his team is behind again, if the team really loses the game, the culprit must be that he didn't run...... The thought of this made him feel painful and sad.

So Harvin encouraged and praised him, but it was mainly for others to see. Let the rest of the Reading players know that no matter what they do, as long as they are for the team, their manager will affirm and praise them, and he will not do those things that "unload the grind and kill the donkey".

This is a huge encouragement for all the Reading players and makes them willing to work hard for the team's goals.

After complimenting Grayton on his bravery, Haven began to lay out the team's tactics for the second half.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ We continued to play on the counter-attacking strategy in the first half of the second half – aiming not to concede a goal. When the score is 1:0 in football, the psychological advantage is one point behind, and the nervous one point is one point ahead. If this score is consistent, the lead will become more and more nervous as the end of the game approaches. They'll get agitated, and that's our chance. So you can't concede goals in the first half of the second half anyway. As long as we don't concede goals, we have hope in the last 20 minutes. ”

'We have fewer people than them and that's the only way to keep the goal safe. Halfway through, we started to fight back...... When counter-attacking, the two full-backs have to be aggressive forward, and Ranson ...... You also have to be aggressive and fall back to overdo it, you're not just a striker. ”

Ranson. Tony nodded, in understanding.

"Boss, what about their Chu?" Harrison asked a most critical question.

From the first half of the game, everyone has a very intuitive feeling, that is, Wimbledon Athletic with Chu Zhongtian is really terrible!

"The old way." Haven said. "Focus on his left ankle and see if he wants the ball or his foot!"

Harrison nodded, "Understood." ”

"Also, you made a big mistake in the first half - you don't just stare at Chu alone! You know, he still has teammates, and that goal is telling. It's because you only see him in defense that Clark is ignored...... Now he's injured, and I'm sure it's not a minor injury, and you don't need all four of them to rush over, right? In the second half, it was enough for Royce and Eric to deal with Chu! Others pay attention to the Wimbledon players and be careful that they get such opportunities again. As long as Wimbledon can't score another goal, sooner or later the initiative of the game will go to our side! ”

Michael. Haven clenched his fists and said confidently.

β€»β€»β€» Chu Zhongtian did not know that in the dressing room of the Reading team, Michael. What kind of arrangement has Haven made for him, he is receiving the team doctor Rhodes at this moment. Ryan's rebandage.

In the first half, due to the tight time, the bandage was not carefully wrapped, it was not tight enough, there was no good prayer to protect the ankle, and it also affected the flexibility of the ankle.

Now at half-time, there's plenty of time to do it all over again.

Chu Zhongtian was sitting on the physiotherapy bed, Ryan was busy arranging his bandages, and his ankles had been cold compressed with a bag of ice cubes to prevent congestion and swelling.

Russell was telling his teammates what the second half should look like.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ We thought we had scored a goal, and the opponent should have pressed it out and attacked us, right? As a result, no, they continued to defend and counterattack. So I don't think they were going to press out in the second half, we were only one goal ahead and for Reading it was an opportunity that will always be in the minds of the Reading players as long as we don't change the scoreline. As the end of the game approaches, that hope will grow stronger, and then they will launch a fierce counterattack...... So the solution is simple, keep scoring goals and if we can go 2-0 up then the situation will turn in our favour...... And if we can take a 3-0 lead, this game will be completely out of suspense and we will be upgraded! ”

"So in the second half it's still about attacking, attacking, keep attacking! The opponent's defense will be tight, but ......" Russell glanced at Chu Zhongtian, and he felt that Chu Zhongtian assisted Kevin in the first half. Clark's goal was brilliant, making full use of the opponent's hole in keeping an eye on Chu Zhongtian, and after attracting the attention of the opponent's defense, he passed the football to Clark and assisted Clark to score.

So if you want to break the opponent's defense, this set is an effective method. But...... If you do this, it won't be very kind to Chu Zhongtian...... If it was Chu Zhongtian when he was not injured, he would not mind using such a tactic, making Chu Zhongtian a decoy, and then assisting his teammates. But now that he's injured, what if he is allowed to be bait, what if it worsens the injury?

Chu Zhongtian knew what Russell wanted to say, and he picked up the conversation while sitting on the physiotherapy bed: "In the second half, I still take me as the core of the attack, try to pass all the football to me, let the opponent focus all the attention on me, and then you find time to run." ”

Russell remained silent, and he acquiesced to Chu Zhongtian's arrangement.

There seems to be no better way...... a fifteen-minute half-time break is a long time for the anxiously waiting fans outside, but it is too short for the players who continue to rest.

When they got back on the pitch, the Reading players didn't even feel like they had enough rest...... "They're out!" ”

The fans in the stands let out a huge cheer when they saw the players from both sides.

'The players from both sides are back on the pitch and the second half is about to begin...... Let's take a look at Wimbledon's side...... Ah, I saw Chu! He didn't go for it, he's going to play in the second half, what does that mean? Does it mean that his injury in the first half was not serious? ”

"I think the existence of Chu is the guarantee of Wimbledon, and now seeing this scene, many Wimbledon fans are relieved, right?"

At halftime, when the broadcast agency was making a halftime commentary, some experts said that Chu Zhongtian assisted his teammates to score, and he had completed his task. If Russell really thinks about Chu Zhongtian's career, he should be replaced...... But some people also said that if Chu Zhongtian left the game too early, he was afraid that he would give Reading a good chance to fight back. Wimbledon Athletic without Chu Zhongtian and with Chu Zhongtian are two completely different teams. It's finally reached the final of the play-offs, will Russell take this risk to let Chu Zhongtian play? You must know that football is not basketball, and you can still pay it back if you are substituted. Once it is off the field, it is irreversible, in case something happens to the game, when Chu Zhongtian is needed, Chu Zhongtian can only be a spectator off the field, and there is no way to stare dryly.

Now seeing that Chu Zhongtian is still on the field, many Wimbledon fans breathe a sigh of relief.

Michael. Harvin was not surprised at all that Chu Zhongtian continued to play in the second half of the game, and he knew that Chu Zhongtian would not be replaced. Because the other party also knows very well how dangerous it is to take a one-goal lead now, in order to be safe, Chu Zhongtian must go up.

Chu Zhongtian took advantage of the time before the start of the game to gather his teammates together, as the captain, he wanted to boost his morale at this time.

"Listen, guys, there's forty-five minutes left until the end of the game, but if we're not careful, that number could also become seventy-five minutes, maybe longer...... They are one less person than us, and the score is still behind, so it should be them who have the psychological pressure, and definitely not us. They are worried about conceding the ball all the time, so we have to take advantage of the opponent's mentality and attack! Go and threaten their goal! ”

'There's still the last half and we're going to finish what we're going to do for the season. What are we working so hard for this season? Think back to the start of the season, what was our performance? Everyone was laughing at us, even we felt as if we were hopeless. In the middle of the league, we lost the manager again...... But none of these difficulties were able to defeat us! We have proved with practical actions that we are worthy of the title of 'Crazy Gang', now let's grit our teeth and work harder! ”

'As soon as we can score one more goal, they collapse! There is simply no room to turn over! "Chu Zhongtian is different from Russell, Russell is a little conservative and thinks that he has to lead by three goals to be able to relax, but Chu Zhongtian feels that as long as he can score one more goal, Reading will be finished.

"In the end, what are we!?"

"Madness-Gang-!!"

β€»β€»β€» "The second half of the game has begun! In the first half, Wimbledon Athletic won the game with Kevin. Clark's goal and Chu's assist, 1:0 for the time being! ”

'Let's see what adjustments are made in the second half...... Neither manager made any substitutions in terms of personnel, but it seems that they have a lot of trust in the players and are very happy with their performance! ”

As soon as the second half began, the football was passed to Chu Zhongtian's feet. This is also what he asked for at half-time, as the core of Wimbledon, how can he do without possession?

As soon as he got the ball, he was pushed to the ground by Harrison.

Chu Zhongtian, who was sitting on the ground, spread his hands and protested to the referee.

The Wimbledon fans in the stands booed loudly.

Harrison immediately got up from the ground, and then reached out to pull Chu Zhongtian.

Throughout the first half, as long as the opponent defended, it was very unclean, Chu Zhongtian had enough of the opponent's approach, and he also knew that this was not a foul tactic at all, this was completely a "killing tactic...... Edwin. Grayton actually succeeded - if it wasn't for his insistence on playing with an injury, the opponent's lethal tactics would have been successful. However, Reading clearly underestimated his own spiritual will.

Seeing that the other party came to express friendship with hypocrisy, Chu Zhongtian didn't pay attention to the other party's action at all, but got up directly from the ground by himself, and then threw down the somewhat embarrassed Harrison and ran away.

Harrison was indeed very embarrassed, when he did this before, although the other party was angry, he would still take his hand and be pulled up. And now it's ...... It was ignored!

He waved his arms angrily and shouted at the referee: "Look at his attitude! ”

The referee reminded him to watch out for his temper.

Harrison didn't dare to annoy the referee, after all, what he was doing was walking on the edge of the rules, the mood of the full-screen referee. The referee can give you a red card if he doesn't like you, and you have nowhere to shout. If the referee is in a good mood, perhaps a foul that should have been a red card can be turned into a yellow card, and a yellow card can be turned into a verbal warning...... The referee told him to pay attention to his temper, and he could only really pay attention to his temper...... But his mouth was still chattering, because Chu ZhongnaΓ―ve made him feel very faceless - Lao Tzu came to pull you with good intentions, don't you still appreciate it?

He forgot how he treated Chu Zhongtian before...... Harrison was dissatisfied with the referee because he felt that the referee should give Chu Zhongtian a warning, because he had no grace. Russell was also dissatisfied with the referee because he felt that the referee should at least show Harrison a yellow card, and he felt that the referee's penalty scale for this game was too lenient.

Haven certainly won't agree with Russell - we've all been sent off to one person, and you're embarrassed to say that the referee is too lax in his decision?

At the post-match press conference, I believe there will definitely be a battle of words.

But now they all have to focus on the game itself.

Wimbledon currently have a one-goal lead and they have the lead. But in fact, there is an undercurrent, and Reading is not without opportunities.

It was a second half full of possibilities...... and Chu Zhongtian continued to attract Reading's defensive attention, but he quickly found that the move was not working. When he was about to send the football to the vacancy, he found that Reading's defensive formation was very complete and there was basically no opportunity to take advantage of.

For this reason, he had possession for longer periods of time and was attacked by Harrison and Bakker. Although several set-piece opportunities were created for the team, free-kick striker John Brown. Jones was not able to send the ball straight into the opposing goal.

He quickly realised that this was no longer possible, and their ideas had been anticipated by Reading, so they made a special arrangement at half-time.

Looks like we're going to have to do something different...... What else can be done to break down the dense defense?

Chu Zhongtian thought of a long shot.

In fact, he wanted to try a long-range shot before he was injured, but it was unfortunately interrupted by a foul by Grayton. He turned away from Grayton and dribbled forward quickly, just to take advantage of the opportunity to shoot from distance and try Reading's defence.

Later, I was injured, and I almost couldn't use my strength to accelerate and run, so I didn't try to shoot from a distance or anything else. Instead, he chose to use a more secure way and rely on his teammates to score goals, so he assisted Kevin. Clark's goal.

If you shoot from a distance, you will be under a lot of pressure regardless of whether your left foot is a support foot or a shooting foot. As a support foot, the weight of the whole body is almost pressed on this foot when shooting, and if you can't bear it, you will lose your center of gravity, and the football that you shoot out can't be seen at all, which is called a miserable one...... When it touches the football as a shooting foot, it needs strong ankle support, otherwise the shot ball will either be biased or high, and it will not pose a threat to Reading's goal at all.

But now, it seems that a long-range shot is the best way to go.

They plugged almost every hole they could, and if they wanted to score, they had to do that.

Chu Zhongtian didn't think about dragging the game until the end of the game, and defeated Reading with a score of 1:0, anyway, this is the final, there are no away goals, and there is no need to compete for goal difference, one goal is enough to decide the winner.

If he hadn't been injured, he wouldn't mind doing it at all, and it's not a bad thing to be conservative in the last game. But now that he's injured, he doesn't know how long he'll be able to hold out, maybe he'll fall the next minute?

To be on the safe side, you have to be two goals ahead of the opponent.

Chu Zhongtian decided to find out how much his injured left foot affected his long-range shots first...... But first, he had to get rid of the two "hyenas" who were almost inseparable.

When Wimbledon's attack reached the 30-metre zone, he moved to the edge of the box and raised his arms – he wasn't worried about getting his opponent's attention at all. Because even if he doesn't, he'll be taken care of by the opposition and his team-mates will still pass the football to him.

So he might as well raise his hand generously to ask.

Edu. Seychelle passed the ball sideways, and Royce and Harrison pounced on it to grab it. Chu Zhongtian grabbed the football in front of him and poked it with his toes, stabbing Kevin who retreated to pick him up. Clarke. He then stepped back and turned to the next point.

At the same time Kevin. Clarke didn't stop the ball either, but just passed the ball back.

Another midfielder, Erik. Bakkel pressed up.

But this time Chu Zhongtian didn't catch the ball, but let the football leak from his side and leak to Kut behind him. Hammons!

Bakker was stunned.

Taking advantage of this stunned effort, Chu Zhongtian ran forward diagonally and pulled out the vacancy.

At the same time, Hammons sent the football straight up!

Chu Zhongtian turned sideways to let the ball go, and then didn't give anyone a chance to come up and interfere with him, and directly shot with his right foot!

Just as he was pushing his right leg with all his might, he felt a burst of pain rushing up from his left ankle, making his body tilt violently!

The outside of the right foot kicked the football, and instead of flying directly towards the goal, the ball drew a line, almost towards the corner flag, and flew out of the baseline...... The stands rang out with the laughter of Reading fans.

This long-range shot is outrageous!

"Chu tried a long-range shot! But obviously he was crooked when he was shooting, and I think it was a left foot injury that affected him......"

"Judging by this shot, he did have a very serious injury to his left ankle, but it's amazing how long he was able to stay on the pitch......

The Wimbledon fans in the stands did not respond to the ridicule of the Reading fans, they all looked at Chu Zhongtian in the field worriedly - his injury is really serious, can he still continue to play?

Russell waved his hand in annoyance, "What the! ”

Of course, he knew what caused Chu Zhongtian's long-range shot to be ridiculously off, so he turned his head to look at Michael. Harvin.

Far away, he could still feel the Reading manager with a smug smile on his face.

This bastard!
