Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Wind Blows

Govia, who was on the sidelines, scratched his head regretfully and said, "The position of this ball is okay, it's a pity." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info”

Resendi said: "yes, it's just a little bit off, if you can get past the wall you should have a chance to score. ”

"Well, we didn't have any special free-kick tactics for him."

Xiao Pan looked at Chen Jianhao on the field and said, "I told him last time, but he doesn't like to kick free kicks and cooperate with people." ”

"The main thing is to deceive the defenders, as long as they get the jump time wrong, the ball should go around."

"Let's go back and talk to him again. In fact, his goal efficiency is not as good as before, and he is not stable enough. ”

"It's normal because the intensity of the game is different. He still has to adapt, and fighting adults is not as simple as he imagined. ”

As he was talking, Ribeiro suddenly threw the ball to the top of the arc of the penalty area near the middle line, Chen Jianhao retreated to receive the ball, and then turned around and shot directly. The shot was on target, but the ball didn't hit hard and was easily confiscated by the goalkeeper.

Govia smiled: "This kid is still a little anxious. Actually, I don't expect him to score many goals, as long as he can grow steadily, he will achieve my goal. ”

The opposing goalkeeper sends the ball to the centre-back in front, who plays it to the wings and then back to the midfielders. There were 20 minutes left, and seeing that the other party was so unhurried, Chen Jinwu and Paulo Gomez took one look at each other and outflanked them. The opposition midfielder did not choose to play against them, but passed the ball to the wide player on the right wing. Paulo Campos was waiting on that side, and as soon as the right winger received the ball, he went up and ended up stretching his foot too fast, and the opponent's support leg was scraped and he fell to the ground. The referee immediately stopped the game and also awarded Paulo Campos a yellow card.

So far, Boavista has received a total of 4 yellow cards. To avoid surprises, Govia removed Paulo Campos and replaced him with Ray López.

Less than a minute after Ray López came on the pitch, the opposition scored again. Just where the foul had been committed, the right winger fired a diagonal pass into the box. Wu Tianchang and Helio both rose to the top, the ball was picked up by the opposing striker, and then without adjustment, it hit directly to the bottom left corner of the goal. Jose Ferreira, despite his quickest response, couldn't make a save and had to watch the score turn 1:2.

In the following time, both sides seemed to fight their physical strength to the freezing point, and nothing was done. After the game, although the match did not end up with a satisfactory result, Govia praised the performance of the players. He believes that as long as this momentum is maintained, the future is promising.

A week later, against the bottom team of the Central Zone, the Cesarnense FC, the team won 4-1.

In this game, even the vice-captain of the central defender, Helio, scored with a corner, his first goal of the season. Chen Jianhao and Quielos also scored a goal each, and it is worth mentioning that Chen Jianhao's goal came from a wonderful through ball by Chen Jinwu, and Chen Jinwu also won the first "Man of the Match" honor since joining the Portuguese second division with his excellent performance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. The last goal was an own goal caused by the opponent's clearance error, but even if only three goals were scored, it would be enough to win the game.

The most high-profile match was Boavista's home match against Sporting Clube Pombal on November 28.

Founded in 1922, Atlético de Pombal is the first and largest competitive club in the city of Pombal and belongs to the tenth sub-club of Sporting Lisbon. Sporting Pombal does not have its own stadium and borrows the stadium of the City Hall, which can only accommodate 1,300 fans. With Pombal's City Hall allowing anyone to enter the stadium for free, this is even more difficult for the club, which is barely able to uncover the pot itself, and does not even earn a limited ticket fee. But despite this, they have a record of 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in the first ten games, accumulating 18 points, and are in third place in the league.

This is a team that is relatively balanced in attack and defence, and they are more consistent and confrontational than Boavista. However, in recent games, Govia has gradually instilled in his players a tenacious fighting style, and of course, there is a price, even yellow cards are more than usual. The rules of the Portuguese second division are one ban for every five yellow cards, and Bailey is in the ranks, and he has to be banned for one game if he is only one yellow card away. Not to mention Francis, who was banned for three games by the senseless red card, and then substitute Bailey, who has replaced Francis in the last few games, has also taken several cards in a row.

The consciousness of hard work is there, but the style of the ball is more dirty. And the results are not improving, after winning the last game, they have only climbed two places, and if they lose this game again, the team will fall into the relegation zone again. Don't look at Govia's unhurried appearance, in fact, before every game, he is not without worries, he just doesn't want to convey this emotion. He put his hope in the second half of the schedule, and only hoped that Chen Jianhao and his party could grow rapidly, adapt to the professional arena as soon as possible, and make contributions to the team.

Less than 1,000 spectators came on this day. Of course, Xiao Longtao and Wu Xiqiong will definitely be there. Speaking of which, these two are really here for Chen Jianhao, and the other fans are mostly die-hard Boavista fans, and some are just to kill time on the weekend and take a look at the stadium. Often, before the game is over, a lot of people are gone.

The Besa Stadium, which has a total capacity of 30,000 spectators, is extremely lonely at this moment. The scattered crowds were unable to form a momentum at all, and the occasional shout always quickly dissolved into the vast field, and could not bring a morale boost to the home team at all.

As usual, warm up, get in, and the game is ready to go. As soon as the referee blew the whistle, the players from both sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle in the midfield.

In just one minute and 30 seconds, Chen Jinwu received a yellow card for a foul on his back. The decision drew a lot of displeasure from Govia, who yelled on the sidelines that the referee was biased in favour of the visiting team and how he could show a yellow card for the first foul. But the referee insisted on his opinion, ignored his protests, and the opponent had no intention of slowing down the pace and kicked off immediately. Govia kicked the turf angrily, then turned back to the bench and sat down.

After five minutes of play, the momentum of the opening period slowed and the game entered a normal pace. The two sides went back and forth, each with a shot on goal. Sporting Pombal mainly plays on the right flank and seems to be deliberately trying to induce fouls, often stopping when they are ambushed on the wing, then turning their backs to the enemy and falling down as soon as they get on their feet. Paulo Gomez was in a hurry and almost fell into the opponent's trap, but fortunately the referee let him go, otherwise he would have probably received another yellow card.

However, Boavista's players are not vegetarians, and more than 7 minutes later, in a scramble, Fang Jizhou was only lightly touched by the opponent, and fell to the ground exaggeratedly, and turned several heels, so that the opponent also received a yellow card early. Although this time it was very suspicious of fake falls, the referee was far away, and seeing that both sides were playing very fiercely, it was safer to play cards to deter them, so as not to make the scene uncontrollable.

Under the premise of this constant competition, the two sides have only played for 10 minutes before they have been forced to interrupt five or six times. Although the referee did not play his cards again, it can also be seen that the confrontation of the game has obviously increased. In the next attack, Helio suddenly found Quielos from a long pass from the backfield, who faced the goalkeeper with a single knife, but unfortunately did not grasp it well, and the goalkeeper of the opposing attack blocked the ball. It was the most dangerous shot of the game so far and Boavista were one step away from the goal.

Since then, the other side has fallen into a low ebb, and has been attacked by the Black Panther Legion in turn. Thankfully, their overall defense was excellent, otherwise they would probably not be able to withstand this wave of attack. Then the feng shui took turns, and the initiative of the game was taken away by Pombal Athletic, they changed the norm, played a variety of delicate foot coordination, and even penetrated the opponent's penalty area twice. The veteran Jose Ferreira's command and defensive ability was undoubtedly evident at this moment, he let Wu Tianchang contain the rear, and then sent Herio to attack and delay, which had a miraculous effect. The opponent hit the ball behind him twice, but Wu Tianchang, who was dragged behind, successfully cleared the ball and did not pose a threat to the goal.

In the midst of the turmoil, the game finally passed 25 minutes. Due to the fierce scramble between the two sides, the physical strength dropped extremely quickly, and it felt like a long time had passed. Chen Jinwu, who was frantically pressing in the midfield, looked up at the clock at the top of the West Stand while rushing forward, but he didn't expect to play for such a short time, and suddenly began to doubt whether his physical strength could last until the end.

However, he only thought about it, and then a volley swept the ball out of the air and then struck Sergio Machado, who had just cut in from the left flank. When Machado touched the ball, he saw Paulo Campos suddenly move from the right and move towards the opponent's ribs, so he directly gave a behind-the-back ball.

Paulo Campos has no defenders around him, and the opponents are focused on Queylos and the tall Chen Jianhao, and they don't seem to take him seriously. He drove straight with the ball and went down with ease, and then the opponent slowly came up to a full-back. But Paulo Campos had no intention of confronting him at all, glancing around the box and then sending in a low cross to try to find Chen.
