Chapter XXII

"This left coach really has two hits." Hualongqiao head coach Ma Chi looked at Zuoqiu Crane and thought: "Last year's Izu was just a third-rate team, and the whole team couldn't find a player with outstanding strength, and I don't know where this Coach Zuo got the magic to conjure up No. 7, No. 18 and No. 21, players of this level." I don't think this year's Izu will be easy, so let's stabilize it first and explore their true level. ”

After Ma Chi told the team members to stabilize, he made a gesture to Ren Meng'er to draw a circle, all of which was seen by Zuo Qiuhe.

Zuo Qiuhe thought to himself, "What does this gesture mean?" ”

Before he had time to think about it, Hualongqiao sent a goal kick. Ren Meng'er got the ball, and while distributing it to Zeng Yi on the side, she said, "Lead up." ”

Zeng Yi comprehended, and passed the ball back to "Grass", "Grass", and then quickly passed the ball to "No. 13", "No. 13", and then quickly passed the ball to "No. 16", and "No. 16" finally quickly passed the ball to Ren Meng'er's feet.

"Rob!" Yao Jun shouted at his teammates, and then grabbed Ren Meng'er, but was shaken by a feint from him, Li Lei immediately filled the position, but saw him easily kicked, and passed to Zeng Yi's feet, Wang Wenwen saw the situation and immediately grabbed it, Zeng Yi passed the ball back to "Grass", "Grass" and then quickly passed the ball to "No. 13", "No. 13" and then quickly passed the ball to "No. 16", Wang Erya, who was defending him, had to step forward to force it, but saw "No. 16" quickly pass the ball to Ren Meng'er's feet.

β€œtiki-taka!” Zuo Shan Crane blurted out.

Qi Yu'er on the side didn't hear clearly, and asked, "What did you say?" Instructor. ”

β€œtiki-taka!” Zuo Qiuhe explained to her: "It means fast and short passing on the field, which you can understand as a football tactic based on delicate passing and control skills and reasonable running positions to pursue the ultimate offensive and defensive football." ”

Qi Yuer suddenly realized: "I only know that the tactical style of Hualongqiao has always been to control the ball, and it turns out that this is called "kick and tap". ”

"It's tiki-taka." Zuo Qiu He corrected her, then pointed to the court and said to her: "Yu'er, you see, the players of Hualongqiao are now consciously finding 2 teammates to form a small triangle, so that they can pass each other and not easily lose the ball." ”

"Oh." After being reminded by the coach, Qi Yuer saw that this was really the case on the field - Ren Meng'er took the ball, Yao Jun grabbed it, Li Lei wanted to block the ball that was passed to Zeng Yi just now, but saw Ren Meng'er pass the ball to "No. 16". Wang Erya stepped forward to rob him, and at the same time blocked the way he passed back to Ren Meng'er, only to see "No. 16" pass the ball to "Mucao".

Qi Yuer comprehended and said: "Really, each of them has 2 passing routes, and one of us can't prevent it." ”

"I'm not worried about that." As soon as Zuo Qiuhe spoke, he saw Yao Jun on the field shouting, "MD, what about when we are monkeys?" Then rushed to Ren Meng'er who was holding the ball, Ren Meng'er pretended to pass the ball to Zeng Yi, Yao Jun stretched out his left foot to tackle, but saw Ren Meng'er turn around on the spot and pass towards his right, who knew that Yao Jun was at this time, quietly stretched out his right foot to tackle.

"Hey, I guessed that." Yao Jun stretched out his left and right feet at the same time, and tackled at the same time, so that everyone didn't guess, and with a "snap", he tackled the ball. But he heard the referee blow the whistle and signal him to foul.

"Huh." Yao Jun felt very wronged and appealed to the referee, but the referee ignored him.

Zuo Qiuhe thought to himself: "This is what I am worried about. He looked at the sky, the game time was 10:30 a.m., the sun was slowly climbing to the middle, the temperature of the field was getting higher and higher, Zuo Qiu He thought: "Our players have too little experience in the game, and when we encounter this situation, on the one hand, the mentality will become impatient, and on the other hand, this hot weather, coupled with Hualongqiao's excellent ball control strength, will it cause a quick waste of their physical strength, which is worth our attention." ”

"Fatty, do you think you can grab my ball?" Ren Meng'er saw that Yao Jun felt very wronged by his foul, and asked unhappily.

"Why not?" Yao Jun took it for granted.

"Okay." Ren Meng'er shook her head and said, then thought, "Didn't you laugh at me for being cross-eyed?" We'll see. ”

Then Ren Meng'er took a free kick, and he chose to attack the goal directly. The soccer ball went straight to the goal in an arc, startling Izu and his party, but Goofy made a brave save and saved it.

"Well done, Goofy." Izu's teammates encouraged.

Then Izu sent a goal kick, Daohan got the ball, and the "grass sheep" came up to grab it again, Daohan stretched out his right foot and faked it, but in fact, he used his left heel to play the ball and successfully passed him. saw that "Grass Grass" and Liu Jiujiu were already waiting here.

"Not good." Daohan secretly complained to himself. found that he had been surrounded by "Grass", Liu Jiujiu, and the "Grazing Sheep" who were chasing back, and robbed him.

"Tiki-Taka's defensive triangle." Zuo Qiu Crane said.

"What is this?" Qi Yu'er asked again.

Zuo Qiu Tsuru explained: "When there is a ball, Tiki-Taka attacks through three-person passing, and when there is no ball, Tiki-Taka is also using its triangle, once the ball is lost, the person involved in the passing triangle forms a defensive triangle at this time, quickly forming a circle around the opponent's ball carrier, surrounding the ball carrier in a "box", and then encircling and suppressing. ”

"What should I do then?" Qi Yu'er gradually became worried.

On the field, after Hualongqiao won the ball, it began to pass in the middle circle, Izu's Li Lei, Yao Jun, the Wang brothers, and the three defenders behind him, with great effort, still couldn't grab the ball, and the game time reached the 20th minute.

"Huh~Huh~Huh" Yao Jun was panting tiredly, but his eyes were staring straight at Ren Meng'er who was holding the ball.

Ren Meng'er walked leisurely and said to him with a smile: "Little fat man, do you still think you can grab my ball?" ”

"Of course you can!" Yao Jun roared angrily and rushed towards Ren Meng'er again.

With a slight flick of Ren Meng'er, Yao Jun lost his balance, but when he wanted to move forward, Yao Jun chased back after him, but he was passed by him again.

"You can't get my ball." Ren Meng'er joked.

"Impossible." Yao Jun chased back, but saw Ren Meng'er pass the ball through the crotch between his feet, and had no choice but to knock him down with his body. The referee blew the whistle.

"Don't ~ rush ~ !" Zuoqiu Crane roared loudly from the sidelines.

Li Lei ran to Yao Jun, who was sweating profusely, patted him on the shoulder, and instructed: "Xiaojun, don't rob ...... like this"

"No!" Yao Jun looked at Li Lei, and Zhengse replied: "I want to rob, I must grab the ball." ”

Li Lei showed embarrassment, glanced at Ren Meng'er, and said to Yao Jun: "But he is a chicken ......"

"Who does he care?" Although Yao Jun was out of breath, he still said with a straight face: "Lao Tzu is the son of the king of robbery, Yao Yingmeng." ”

"Yao Yingmeng's son." Ren Meng'er was shocked by this sentence, and he asked Yao Jun: "Who are Yao Xun?" ”

Hearing him ask, Yao Jun replied, "It's my brother." ”

"Oh." Ren Meng'er responded, instantly recalling a past: it was the "Tianyi School Cup" two years ago, his own Hualongqiao Middle School has been eliminated, Ren Meng'er and his teammates are watching the finals of Izu High School and Guangxu Middle School, Yao Xun performed well in that game, and his excellent skills and elegant style of play shocked Ren Meng'er.

"You say, 'How do I compare myself to him?' Ren Meng'er pointed to Yao Xun, who also played in the front half like herself, and asked Ma Chidao, who was still on the school team at the time.

Ma Chi pouted, "He's a little stronger than you." ”

"Hmph." Although she knew the answer to the question, after hearing her teammates' answers, Ren Meng'er was still unhappy and said, "But it doesn't matter, I will become stronger in the future." ”

Ma Chi smiled after hearing this: "If you become stronger, others will also become stronger, he is a high school freshman like you, okay?" ”

"Ahh Seeing Yao Xun's mature technique, Ren Meng'er couldn't believe that he was the same age as herself.

"Just kidding." Ma Chi slapped Ren Meng'er, put away his smiling face, and said seriously: "Little chicken, you have to come on, I think that in the next two years, Chongqing's "strongest forward" will be born between the two of you, and this Yao Xun will be your "enemy of high school." ”

After that, Ren Meng'er regarded Yao Xun as his imaginary enemy, and had been training hard, wanting to defeat him when he met him. I don't know that Yao Xun has never appeared again because of the "fraud incident".

Back in the arena, Ren Meng'er looked at the big fat man in front of her, and said with a smile in her heart: "If my brother doesn't come out, I have to educate my younger brother." ”

Ren Meng'er sent out a free kick, passed it to Zeng Yi, and then yelled at him: "Puppy, pass it back to me." ”

Although Zeng Yi didn't understand what he was thinking, he still passed the ball back. Ren Meng'er took the ball and mocked Yao Jun: "Little fat man, come on." "Then he took the ball in stride.

"What is he going to do?" Liu Jiujiu, who was in the backcourt, didn't understand why Ren Meng'er suddenly began to accelerate, and asked the "grass-eating sheep" beside him.

The grazing sheep replied calmly: "I want to have fun." ”

I saw Ren Meng'er use a quick stop to shake off Yao Jun who was chasing back, and saw that Li Lei and Mi were standing at the front of the penalty area, so they had to take them towards Wang Wenwen and Chen Bo's side.

"Yikes!" Yao Jun stood up again and chased back towards Ren Meng'er, this time using a tackle to break it, but he had already seen through it, and was dodged by a quick stop.

While passing Yao Jun, Ren Meng'er found that Chen Bo behind him was staying in place, as if he was shocked by his dazzling foot skills. So he boldly played the ball and passed Chen Bo with him, but fortunately, Yao Jun caught up again, otherwise he would have faced the goalkeeper directly.

Ren Meng'er grabbed the ball high before Yao Jun blocked it, and flew to the penalty area, and the "grass" was already ambushed here.

"Liao Chunhui!" Li Lei reminded him that the landing point was his.

"Okay." Liao Chunhui responded, and then wanted to clear the ball with a header, but who knew that he suddenly rose to the top.

"Danger!" The Izu team members thought in their hearts.

"Grass" quickly rushed forward, drew his bow and arrows, and shot angrily.

Gao Fei saw that the angle of the ball was tricky, but fortunately, the strength was not great, so he jumped up and took advantage of the situation to lift the ball out of the bottom line. Then he stood up and yelled at Liao Chunhui: "TMD, what are you doing!" ”

Liao Chunhui replied ashamedly: "I'm sorry. ”

In the subsequent game, Hualongqiao completely grasped the initiative and successfully cut off the connection between Izu's backcourt and frontcourt, resulting in Ren Rang, Daohan and Yeyi never being able to get the ball. In terms of offense, Hualongqiao used Ren Meng'er to successfully contain Izu's 4 backs, especially Yao Jun, whose physical consumption was unusually large, and the game time came to 32 minutes.

"It's getting worse." Zuo Qiuhe shouted in his heart: "They are completely in control of the situation, we can't organize an attack at all, and what's even more terrible is that their formation is getting higher and higher, forcing us within their own half, it's too bad to go on like this." At this time, Zuoqiu Crane heard Ma Chi shouting: "Chicken! ”

Zuo Qiuhe looked at Ma Chi and saw that he made a gesture to Ren Meng'er, with his two index fingers opening to both sides, and Ren Meng'er nodded at him in response to show that he understood.

"What does this gesture mean?" Zuo Qiu He said in his heart. saw Ren Meng'er running to Zeng Yi, "Mucao", "No. 13", and "No. 16" players respectively, and whispered something to them.

"It doesn't feel good." Qi Yu'er also saw this scene and said worriedly.

After Hualongqiao got the ball again, after the team's quick pass, the formation gradually pressed to the front of Izu's penalty area. Ren Meng'er held the ball, Yao Jun and Li Lei grabbed it, forcing him to take it to the side, only to see the two people opposite Ren Meng'er, still not in a hurry.

"Big brother, don't let him pass." Yao Jun, who was sweating profusely, instructed.

"Hmm." Li Lei stared at the ball and didn't have time to respond too much.

Ren Meng'er took a big stride with his left foot, which frightened the two of them to move their center of gravity forward, but saw him suddenly turn around.

"Where to go." Yao Jun reacted very quickly, and when the center of gravity moved forward, he still stretched out his foot to hook the ball, but even Ren Meng'er hooked it.

"Shh The referee blew the whistle again.

"Hey~yay!" Seeing that the steal was about to succeed, but they were sentenced to a foul, Yao and Li were very frustrated.

Ren Meng'er quickly reached out and pressed the ball to the ground, and Yao and Li immediately reacted and quickly retreated.

"Be careful!" Li Lei shouted at the central defenders behind him.

Who knows, Ren Meng'er's footwork is too fast, and without waiting for the Izu players to react, she quickly opened a hanging pass, only to see the ball pass high over Yao Jun and Li Lei, and pass to Zeng Yi, who was quickly inserted. Originally, there was a Chen Bo in this position, but Zeng Yi ignored him as if he expected him to not be able to break the ball, and sure enough, Chen Bo rose to the top again, and the ball fell in front of Zeng Yi.

"Holy!" Gao Fei was frightened by this sudden change, and hurriedly stepped forward, using both hands and feet, trying to block Zeng Yi's shot.

Zeng Yi sneered, didn't wait for the ball to land, and used his foot in the air to push the ball over the high flying and fly straight to the goal.

At this moment, Mi Zheng came out, and before the football fell to the goal line, he pulled the ball out with his foot, but because of inertia, he also got into the net.

"Ahh Qi Yu'er screamed.

Seeing the football rolling out again, when he came to Ren Meng'er, he opened his legs and prepared to shoot an empty goal.

"And me!" Yao Jun was furious, flew towards Ren Meng'er, and blocked the shooting route with his body.

"Tender." These words flashed in Ren Meng'er's heart, only to see that his leg was a fake shot, but in fact, he passed the ball horizontally to the gap.

There are just two people in the passing position, one Liao Chunhui and one "grass". Liao Chunhui didn't expect the ball to come here, and "Grass" had already prepared and shot head-on, only to see the ball hit Mi Zheng in the goal and bounced out again.

"Didn't get in?" Qi Yu'er saw the ball pop out and said luckily.

"It's already in." Zuo Qiuhe said regretfully.

Sure enough, the referee blew the whistle, indicating that the ball had crossed the goal line.

Hwaryuqiao Middle School 1:0 Izu High School, 35 minutes of play time.

"How? I'm right, haha. Ren Meng'er ran to "Grass" with a smile and stretched out her hands to high-five.

"Sure enough, it's empty." "Grass" said as she high-fived him.

It turned out that before scoring the goal, Ma Chi made a gesture to Ren Meng'er, pointing his fingers to both sides. Ren Meng'er understood and knew that the coach found that the central defenders on both sides of Izu - Chen Bo and Liao Chunhui were weak points. So Ren Meng'er commanded his teammates on the field to attack these two places. And it did.

Is this the legendary "Chicken Emperor"? Zuo Qiuhe looked at the proud Ren Meng'er, and commented in his heart: "Excellent dribbling skills, broad passing vision, and what is more commendable is that he perfectly implements the coach's intentions and can lead the whole team to execute perfectly, this "chicken emperor" Ren Meng'er is really an excellent "front court commander" ......
