Chu Zhongtian's first goal helped Wimbledon open up the situation, Hartley Winterney had no way to continue to defend because they were behind, and they had to come out to seek an attacking opportunity, otherwise they had to end the trip to Wimbledon with this scoreline.

For Hartley Winterney, losing one goal is a loss, and losing two goals is also a loss. In this case, then there is no objection to being conservative, losing is zero points, if you can score a goal, no matter how conservative you are, you can at least get a point, if you are lucky, if you score two goals in a row, then maybe you can take away three points!

As soon as Hartley Winterney attacked, it was just in time to give Wimbledon a chance.

There is no need for Chu Zhongtian to organize an attack anymore, facing the opponent's porous backline, Russell can deal with it alone.

Chu Zhongtian rushed forward with anticipation and waved to Russell: "Pass the ball to me!" Pass it to me! ”

But Russell was a hundred and eighty degrees away from his previous attitude, and he didn't pay attention to his call at all. Once you get the ball, turn around and pass forward.

Chu Zhongtian looked at it for a while, and after discovering that Russell could handle the responsibility of organizing the attack alone, he finally figured out what was going on.

"Fuck, unload the mill and kill the donkey!" He took a sip and scolded dissatisfiedly.

Now that the team has opened up the situation, it is natural that they will not need to insert themselves into the attack.

Chu Zhongtian was a little disappointed, because he passed the ball to Borjie just now, and after he reacted later, he felt very excited, and that wonderful feeling made him have endless memories in his heart.

If only I could do it again...... "Chu! ”

Eames stood on the sidelines and whistled at him.

"Watch defensive!"

The head coach shouted this, and Chu Zhongtian could only give up and continue to dream. He stepped back and stood in front of the centre-back, ready to deal with a possible attack.

Until half-time, Hartley Winterney didn't get any decent attacking opportunities, perhaps because they had defended so long that they had forgotten how to attack. Or maybe it's because they can only defend and counterattack, and if they take the initiative to press out and attack, they will be a little unable to find the north.

Anyway, Chu Zhongtian didn't suffer too many tests. Russell, however, reinvigorated himself and orchestrated a couple of attacks that threatened Hartley Winterney's goal, and then they took it back – they were instructed by their head coach not to concede any more goals until the end of the first half, even if they were one goal behind, and that the difference could be recovered in the second half.

So when the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 1:0, and the home team Wimbledon was ahead. This ball came from Chu Zhongtian's planning organization.

※※※ "Chu, your kid was awesome on that pass just now!" How did you see that the blog over there (bolge, Bolger's nickname for the team) would be plugged in? "Sim. Johnston patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder and asked.

In the locker room, he was not the first person to ask Chu Zhongtian this question.

"Intuition, intuition, hey!" For these questions, Chu Zhongtian always answered with this reason.

That's a great reason. For those things that you can't explain, it's right to use "intuition" to explain them. Players also really have to rely on "intuition" to help them make judgments on the pitch a lot of times, and sometimes it is no longer possible to keep up with the ever-changing situation by relying on brain analysis alone, and it is possible to react with body instinct to be effective, and directing this body instinct is naturally "intuition".

So no one doubted Chu Zhongtian.

Borjie approached Chu Zhongtian, tilted his head and stared at him for a long time, and finally muttered, "I still can't believe that the ball came from you...... Anyway, your pass is a little bigger, and if it weren't for my speed, I might not have been able to catch it. ”

Chu Zhongtian said to him: "It is precisely because of your speed that you pass such a ball." If it is transmitted slowly and lightly, it will not achieve a sudden effect. Don't you always say that you're the fastest in the team, I just gave you a show of its speed, and you haven't thanked me yet. ”

Chu Zhongtian can already calmly accept this fact - that beautiful ball was indeed passed by himself. So when it comes to this pass, he can also talk about it without any shame.

Chu Zhongtian said that he was the fastest in the team, and Bolger was very useful. His speed has always been his greatest weapon. Of course, speed is his greatest weapon, and it also limits his growth in other aspects, so his physical confrontation ability is very weak. As a result, he was also laid off by Wimbledon Professional Football Club and, like Russell, was eliminated.

Borger grinned and patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder happily: "Good pass, kid!" ”

Eames and Ingrid walked into the locker room at the end, clapped their hands, and the locker room fell silent.

"You didn't do a bad job in the first half." Eames said. "Chu, in particular, not only did an excellent job of defending, but also helped the team a lot offensively."

He rarely praises a person alone, and today's Chu Zhongtian is an exception. Suddenly, Chu Zhongtian received the envious glances of many teammates.

Chu Zhongtian also enjoyed the feeling of being praised by the head coach alone, and he smiled.

"But I want to remind you that the second half is a little bit more complicated. If you still press up like you did in the first half, I bet you're going to lose again, forgetting our game against Chipsti and Asho United? ”

In both games, Wimbledon was scored by the opponent at the last minute of the game, and the game against the Chipsti team was even more advantageous when the opponent was attacked by the opponent due to the pressure on the whole line.

Eames mentioned these two games to keep the players from getting carried away. This group of players is not a professional player, they are semi-professional players at best, and it is very common for them to get carried away. After winning a game, you don't know what your last name is, thinking that you can beat the invincible opponent in the world, and the next game is likely to lead to a defeat.

"So Chu, if you don't have my consent in the second half, you don't go up to participate in the attack, give me a solid midfield defense."

Chu Zhongtian was a little disappointed, such an emotion would not have existed before. In the past, the coach asked him to do whatever he did. Now he would be a little upset when he heard that he wasn't allowed to come forward and participate in the attack. To this day, he still reminisces about the moment when he passed the ball to Borger, and it was an amazing feeling.

Although he was a little disappointed, Chu Zhongtian still nodded, he knew the importance of defense. Now is the time to pay attention to the defense, and he believes that in the second half of the game, he will not be too idle.

Eames continued to distribute tactics, and Russell was asked to take on the responsibility of organizing the attack. Everyone else has to work with him to get in the position. Because if the opponent wants to attack, in order to ensure the safety of his own backline, he will definitely create an offside position. If you are still stupid in the front court, I am afraid that you will fall into the opponent's offside trap again and again. So you have to keep running in and out of the front, looking for the right route, and if you don't have it, use the run to make it yourself.

Compared to those offensive players, Chu Zhongtian's task is really simple - just stop the opponent's attack.

After making tactical adjustments for the second half, Eames clapped his hands: "Alright, guys. Forget about the first half and start the second half by attacking them and trying to score early so that we can be more proactive. ”

When the Wimbledon players returned to the pitch, they heard a tsunami of cheers from the fans.

It was a reward for their first half lead.

Chu Zhongtian easily found Emily and his fellow countryman Yang Yang in the crowd, as well as Boss John, who was standing behind them with three people on top of a wall, like a wall, and other companions from the Dons Bar. Emily is not the only one who is holding a sign to cheer herself on now, and Colin is the owner of Dons's Bar. John, who is quite business-minded, and he and Jack Xu hold up a banner that reads, "Chu, you are the pride of our Dons Bar!" ”

The other characters are black, except for the "Dons Bar" (dons_pub), which is red, which stands out on the white strips of cloth.

Well, now everyone knows that there is such a bar. If John wanted to, he could also write the address of the Dons Bar below, and then attract more customers there to enjoy Chu Zhongtian, a defensive titan on the court, who obediently poured drinks for them.

Although the boss used himself as a sign for the bar, Chu Zhongtian waved his hand at them. After all, it feels good to have someone cheering you on.

Seeing Chu Zhongtian waving to them, the people at Dons Bar cheered loudly.

Emily even pointed to the words written in her hand that read "Chu, come on!" The brand threw a flying kiss at Chu Zhongtian very wildly.

At that time, Chu Zhongtian just turned his face and ran towards his position, but he didn't see this scene. Otherwise, I really don't know how much thought he has in the second half of the game.

Yang Yang, who was standing next to him, was frightened. Emily is this intentional or unintentional to Chu Zhongtian...... ※※※After the start of the second half of the game, everything was as Coach Eames analyzed, the Hartley Winterney team was not willing to fail, they strengthened the attack, but when they let Chu Zhongtian cut off the ball in the middle of the midfield twice in a row, their arrogance was drowned out by Wimbledon's offensive frenzy, and finally completely extinguished.

Wimbledon, in the cheers of the home fans, slammed the opponent's goal wave after wave, trying to score another goal in the fastest time to completely break the opponent's fighting spirit.

Russell organized the attack in the front court, and the opponent gave him more space and time to control the ball and pass the ball because he had to press the attack. In such a relaxed environment, he seems to be at home.

Time and time again, he used his good passes to create opportunities for his teammates. Cooper and Joe. Schilling, for his part, threatened Hartley Winterney's goal with their shots in front, along with Bolger and Andy. Sullivan played Russell's passes on both flanks, sometimes switching places.

Chu Zhongtian looked at them from behind, a little envious.

However, he also knew that if he and his defenders did not provide them with protection, and frantically tackle and defend in the backfield, the first few people would not have enjoyed such a free and easy pleasure. Different positions, different division of labor, and different responsibilities.

He is a defensive midfielder, a blue-collar worker who does the dirty work. Since you can't go up and participate in the attack, you can only vent all your excess energy into defense.

Russell was too sticky to the ball when he was in possession, and was finally cut off by the opposing two guards. The Hartley Winterney team, who broke the ball, played a quick counter-attack.

In previous games, they have fully recognized that Wimbledon's No.8-shirt-wearing east face is a very strong role in defence. So this time, when they counterattacked, they directly bypassed Chu Zhongtian, who was guarding the middle lane, and switched to the side lane.

Chu Zhongtian glanced at the ball that had been kicked to the side, turned around and ran towards the penalty area. It's enough for the defense to grasp one point - no matter what the process is, the offense will eventually return to the middle. No matter how beautiful the breakthrough on the side is, it has to be crossed, and if you don't cross, it is also an internal cut, and it is rare to shoot directly on the side. So once you score, it's a classic that will be played and mentioned repeatedly, such as Basten's near-zero-angle volley at the 1988 European Championships, and Robert Basten. Carlos' cross from the bottom line at Real Madrid turned into a volley, or Vieri's zero-angle shot after passing the goalkeeper at Atletico Madrid.

This kind of situation is called a classic because it rarely happens. Such a special case does not alter the general principles of defense.

Chu Zhongtian ignored the players of Hartley Winterney on the wing, where his own full-back teammates were in charge. Sullivan was also quick to come back and help defend. He ran straight into the box, and whether the opponent was going to cross or cut inside, he was waiting there.

The opponent's player with the ball was wearing the No. 11 jersey, and Chu Zhongtian didn't know what his name was, because the name was not printed on the number, and the same was true on Wimbledon's jersey. He can only identify people by number.

The number 11 stopped the ball and faced Wimbledon left-back Keith. Ward. Ward can play in a number of positions and Eames has taken his role to the extreme, playing at left-back, right-back, centre-back and defensive midfielder.

It's just that he has a disadvantage in speed when he plays full-back...... The number 11 has figured out Ward's characteristics in previous games - it is really difficult to break through the frontal defense, and he is experienced in the use of fouls and small movements. But speed is not his characteristic.

Seizing this, No. 11 just stopped the ball and slammed forward, and then suddenly accelerated, catching Ward off guard!

By the time Ward turned around, the opponent was already in the box, and even if he rushed up at this time, it would be useless.

But his eyes lit up and he saw a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, the person standing in front of the 11th is Chu Zhongtian!

No. 11 obviously didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to appear in front of him so soon, but he was no stranger to Chu Zhongtian. In the previous game, when he appeared in the middle twice, he was ruined by Chu Zhongtian.

This time he came to the side road specifically, but he didn't expect to meet Chu Zhongtian...... Seeing Chu Zhongtian appear in front of his eyes, No. 11 had to slow down, because if he continued to accelerate, his control of the ball would be reduced, and in such a narrow range of the penalty area, the slightest mistake in possession would cause possession to change hands.

He slowed down, intending to use his foot technique and feints to shake Chu Zhongtian over. The situation is now in his favor, because any defender in the box will have to be cautious and hesitant to kick out, which provides him with good conditions to break through, as long as he can shake off a little space, he can break through!

But he was wrong.

When his left shoulder sank and made a feint to break through to the sideline, and at the same time his right foot was raised as if to pluck the ball, Chu Zhongtian had already fallen to the ground and shoveled the football between his legs!

No.11's right foot was raised, and his left foot was used as a support foot, a little away from the ball, which was now out of his control. Chu Zhongtian's tackle was sudden, accurate and ruthless, and he shoveled the football out directly between his legs. No. 11 reacted quickly, immediately pressed down his center of gravity, opened his arms and threw himself on Chu Zhongtian's body, of course, he didn't forget to scream: "Oops! ”

Chu Zhongtian didn't care so much, he raised his body and looked at the situation - the football he shoveled out happened to fall at the feet of Ward, who was returning to the defense, and he breathed a sigh of relief. That's when I remembered to go to the referee.

Not only him, but everyone was watching the referee. The referee hooked his hand at the two players who fell to the ground in the penalty area: "Get up, man." ”

Chu Zhongtian pushed away the No. 11 player who was pressing on him and jumped up from the ground.

And the No. 11 player, who was lifted aside by Chu Zhongtian, slapped the ground in annoyance, and then got up from the ground unwillingly. By this time, Wimbledon had already hit the ball into the opposing half...... Wimbledon fans in the stands were cheering for Chu Zhongtian's key defense, while also laughing at the opposing No.11 who was planning to cheat the penalty.

Emily patted Yang Yang's shoulder vigorously: "Chu is really good!" ”

Yang Yang grinned when she patted him: Of course Chu Zhongtian performed well, but don't always pat me on the shoulder...... ※※※ In the next game. Hartley Winterney was stubbornly blocked by Chu Zhongtian and his teammates in the attack, and faced a tidal wave of attacks from Russell and others when defending. They held out until the 57th minute of the game, when the goal was finally lost.

Russell was dribbling the ball sideways at the edge of Hartley Winterney's box when he suddenly twisted and passed a through ball to his own flank. Joe. Schilling understood, ran diagonally, never stepped forward in an offside position, received the ball behind all the Hartley Winterney defenders, and then kicked the ball into the opposition goal while the opposing defenders were still raising their hands to signal him for offside!

2：0！

Seven minutes later, Wimbledon won a corner. Although Chu Zhongtian's header was very good, he was asked by Eames to stay at the end and be responsible for preventing the opponent from counterattacking. At such a time, Eames obviously believed in Chu Zhongtian more.

Both of the team's centre-backs rushed forward.

Russell kicked the football in front of the goal, and suddenly several long people surged up like a sea breeze blowing through the sea, forming a wave in front of the goal.

Chu Zhongtian could see clearly in the back, Sim. Johnston pressed everyone and hit the ball.

He raised his arms, ready to cheer for the goal.

The ball went over the head of one of the players leaning against the near post and hit the net!

Chu Zhongtian clenched his hands into fists.

3：0！

"Ulla-!!" There was a huge cheer from the King's Ranch.

※※※ There is nothing to stop Wimbledon from getting a win in this game. Even in the 87th minute, the opponent took advantage of a defensive negligence at Wimbledon and relied on a counterattack to score a goal, which did not affect the interest of the fans in the stands at all, and they kept singing and applauding to cheer for the team.

In such an atmosphere, Yang Yang couldn't help but learn to applaud them according to the rhythm, and then sang loudly a song that he didn't know what words were. Anyway, he just needs to follow the roar, it's not in tune, and it doesn't matter if there are no lyrics.

Only Chu Zhongtian was a little dissatisfied with the conceded ball, and he wanted to shave the opponent's bald head...... It was a big win, and now ...... It's like a piece of white jade with a little flaw.

In the end, Wimbledon won the game 3-1 to the cheers of more than 3,100 fans at home to claim their third win of the season.

For most fans, it was just an ordinary victory.

But for Chu Zhongtian, this match will be destined to occupy a very important place in his life - because for the first time in the game, he experienced the thrill and fun of organizing an attack by himself. It was an indescribable feeling, and just one pass was enough to keep him happy all day.
