Chapter 121: Counterattack
Before the start of the second half, Tonga's No. 8 striker approached Palu, "Do we really want to listen to that Chinese?" ”
"Why not?"
"Listen, Palu, I know that guy can be amazing, he's some kind of Olympic gold medal coach, but ......"
"But what?"
"Did he teach us football? Isn't football supposed to run around the ball, and he actually made us run empty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Palu pointed to number 8 and asked, "Are you a man?" ”
No. 8 was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”
"If it's a man, he should speak, and we promised Li Guo absolute obedience."
Number 8 understood, and said no more, and Palu motioned for him to run back to his place.
*****
It is worth mentioning that there is no electronic scoreboard on the spot, it is still handwritten, and at the beginning of the second half, the scorekeeper stood on the scoreboard on behalf of Samoa, and he estimated that the score on the Samoan side would have to go up.
At the start of the game, the second half was a Samoa kick-off, with two strikers teeing off in the centre circle, one of whom passed the ball back to Martinez, who paced and waited for the opposing players to swarm in.
But strangely, at the beginning of the second half, the Tongan players did not rush to move, but adopted a zone defense.
"Could it be that the Tongans are stupid and haven't had time to disperse?" Martinez thought to himself, "Then I'll wait." ”
At that moment, two Tongan players approached Martinez and caught Martinez in the middle, forcing Martinez to pass the ball.
Martinez looked up and was surprised to find that the position of the Tongan players was very reasonable, and there were Tongan players on several simple passing routes, of course, Martinez could also make long passes to find the striker, but unfortunately he couldn't do it with his skills.
Li Ghost is a bully who can't do martial arts, and he can't meet a hero. Seeing that the pass didn't work, the opponent came over again, and Martinez could only pass back.
But as soon as the ball came out of the foot, Martinez regretted it, it turned out that Palu was not far away, and Martinez's ball was passed to Palu right away.
Palu is a good technique, all the way forward with the ball, Samoa's defense is the same, a swarm, when the Samoan player pounced on Palu, Palu shook his ankle and passed the ball out, and the No. 8 striker on his side inserted and pushed, and the ball went in!
Tonga pulled a goal back and the score became 1-5.
*****
The scorekeeper on the sidelines was stunned, "Tonga can still score?" "He thought that 5-0 had knocked the fighting spirit of the Tongans away, but he didn't expect the Tongans to score one in the second half?
It should be added here that the scorekeeper is also the fourth official of the game, and he is neutral. The scorekeeper had no choice but to walk over to the side that represented Tonga's score and write 1.
*****
The stadium was boiling, the Tongan players hugged each other, and someone shouted: "That Chinese is amazing." ”
"He seems to know magic."
Palu was afraid that everyone would get carried away, so he reminded: "It's only one ball, and we are still far away." ”
On the Samoan side, the head coach was stunned for a moment, and then thought to himself, "It must be blind, yes, it must be." ”
Although he also knows that he has entered the top 8 and his team is also abusive, he must abuse his opponent when he plays Tonga.
He stood up and called Martinez over, "I know it's not Spain, it's tropics, but you have to work hard in the second half." ”
Martinez nodded, but he didn't seem to think it was that simple.
"I feel like Tonga didn't play the same second half, they had the same level in the second half as they did in the Spanish third division (the fourth division of Spain)."
The manager almost burst out laughing, "Isn't that better than you." ”
Martinez blushed because he had not yet qualified to play in La C, but had played in the regional league below.
The head coach patted Martinez, "Don't think about it, that ball just now was lucky, I understand Tongan football,"
Martinez looked displeased, he didn't want to say more, and played the piano to the cow.
*****
The game continued, Samoa was still the same old way, handing the ball to Martinez, but Martinez could no longer pass a threatening kick, coupled with slow action, so Martinez was repeatedly tackled, for which the Tongan player also received a yellow card.
Seeing the yellow card, the fans at the scene were wide-eyed, because they rarely saw a yellow card, in the amateur game, there are not many tackles, after all, if the tackle has not been practiced, the average person will not be able to strain his thigh first.
"We actually got a yellow card? It's rare," a male fan in the stands muttered to himself.
The other next to him said, "You said we'd get a red card," and he had a happy look on his face when he said that.
The one just now sighed, "How can you be so lucky." ”
Fortunately, Li Guo was far away from them and didn't hear this thunderous conversation, otherwise he would vomit blood.
Five minutes later, Tonga scored another goal, again in the same way, forcing Martinez, forcing him to return the ball, and then cutting off his return pass to play a counter-attack.
As soon as the second goal was conceded, the Samoan coach couldn't sit still, "Could it be that the Tongans did some kind of witchcraft at halftime?" ”
Because the local aborigines still retain many primitive beliefs, the head coach of Samoa has to suspect that the Tongans are "ghosts".
*****
"What's going on, what's going on!"
When Samoa conceded the third and fourth goals in a row, the head coach had turned his anger into a roar, "Did the Tongans take their medicine?" ”
He found the fourth official to complain, "Referee, I suspect that the other party has taken medicine, you have also seen it, do you believe that a team will be so different from the second half?" ”
The fourth official gave him a blank look, "Hehe, take medicine for this kind of competition?" Isn't that wasteful? ”
The head coach was stunned, and then said to himself, "That's right." ”
*****
When Tonga scored the game-winning goal, the players rushed to the sidelines and shouted in unison: "Long live Li Guo, Li Guo is our god." ”
The Samoan players kept their heads down, but suddenly Martinez looked up and looked over, "Li Guo?" He seems to have heard the name.
"Li Guo?"
"Li Guo?"
By the way, isn't he the former Bayer Leverkusen, the current head coach of the Chinese national team?
Martinez immediately told his head coach that it was okay, and he and the head coach immediately approached the fourth official to complain, "They violated the rules, they brought in foreign help." ”
The fourth official yawned and said, "Isn't it a waste to invite foreign aid for this kind of game?" ”
Martinezon sometimes felt like he was being slapped in the face, and he wanted to refute it, but he couldn't say anything when he grew up.
In the end, the head coach of Samoa could only sit back obediently, watch the game continue, look at the scoreboard 6-5, he missed the 5-0 in the first half.
