Chapter 218: Morale is up (the second update of the guarantee)

While Chen Yingying was upset that he couldn't score points in the first half, Smith, the head coach of the Glasgow Streamers, was happy and performed his players in the dressing room

"You guys did a great job ()!" He shook his fist hard, accentuating his tone to show how happy he was with the result.

"Especially Neil, your performance was impeccable ()!"

The biggest contributor to the first half was the team's main goalkeeper Neil. Alexander. If it weren't for his brilliant swing, the team would have fallen behind by at least two goals. In a game like the final, two goals down basically means it's over.

Alexander didn't seem ecstatic in the face of the manager's praise, after all, he is not a maotou kid in his early twenties, he is thirty years old, and if he is complacent about such a little praise, then it is impossible to be the main goalkeeper - the psychological quality is not up to par.

He just nodded and responded with the manager's compliment.

In the first half, he actually had a lot of pressure, although he saved the opponent's shot every time, but the pressure in his heart did not decrease at all, but continued to accumulate over time. If he had conceded the ball at the beginning, maybe he wouldn't have been under pressure...... Now the team's hopes of winning the championship are obviously all on his hands, and he must not concede a goal in the second half, once he concedes a goal, the effort put in in the first half will be in vain, and it can be said that the previous work has been wasted.

The thought of this makes him feel stressed.

Every time Zenit's players shoot, he pounces and breathes a sigh of relief.

After praising the goalkeeper's performance, Smith began to think about what to do in the second half.

'In the second half we continued to play like that, first to make sure we didn't concede. They have a better prospect than we do, but now that they can't score, they get restless. That's our chance. The time to decide the outcome should be twenty minutes after seventy minutes. Zenit has been besieging us, and their physical exertion must have been great, and I heard that they had been flying for more than thirty hours before this race, and it is impossible for them to remain unaffected. So after 70 minutes, we will step up the offensive and wait for the opportunity to counterattack. When counterattacking, we must be resolute and decisive, and we must not procrastinate! If you have the opportunity, you can do it quickly; ※※※

Advocaat scratched his head, what was the problem with the team?

Nothing went wrong ().

Tactically opposed, we kept the Glasgow Stream 1 at bay. The players are in great shape, they are very positive, whether it is running on the pitch, shooting and passing, etc.

But we just didn't score.

It's not our problem, it's that the goalkeeper is too good and the opposition is playing hard.

He doesn't think there's anything to adjust tactically, but the mentality of the players needs to be extra careful.

“…… We played well in the first half. ”

The first thing to do is to praise them, so that they don't fall into a depressed mood. Forty-five minutes without a score, which was really demoralizing.

"Very nice! We completely suppressed each other on the pitch and you did a great job. We had to continue to do that in the second half. But...... But! You have to be careful with their counter-attacks, especially as the game goes on! ”

"We can expect them to wait until about 75 minutes later and counter-attack while our fitness is down. So it is necessary to pay attention to their counter-attack ......"

In fact, the key to the problem is to score goals, as long as you score goals, any problem will be solved.

But the topic of scoring goals is very sensitive now, and he doesn't want to talk too much. I'm afraid it will irritate everyone again......

Scoring was almost all the key words in the first half of the whole team of Zenit, and it was the goal that everyone was desperately striving for. If you don't think about it, you don't score......

When Chen Yingxing reappeared on the court, he was found again in a close-up of the television broadcast.

It seems that I want to see his heart from Chen Yingying's face ().

In the first half he clearly wanted to score but couldn't score, will that bring some emotional fluctuations to him, and will these emotional fluctuations affect the second half of the game?

Everyone saw Chen's gloomy face from the TV screen - he obviously cared about the lack of a goal in the first half!

Chen Yingying, who usually has a frown on the playing field, is always optimistic and positive when he has a serious face.

Chen Yingying felt that he was not fighting against that goalkeeper Alexander, but against fate.

Because he thinks that the goalkeeper's state is inexplicable, it's like he specifically doesn't want Zenit to win the championship.

If this is fate, I will rewrite fate!

※※※

Sun Jihai saw Chen Yingying like this in front of the TV, and his worry was even worse. If he doesn't care about the fact that he doesn't score, then his mood will definitely be affected. If he can't open the deadlock early in the second half, his mentality will be more impetuous, let alone scoring goals at that time, and maybe he will make card-eating actions such as flying tackles in the game, and clash with the opponent or something...... Then he was sent off with a red card.

This is the worst possible outcome.

There are too many players who perform perfectly in the game before the final, but they perform like sleepwalking in the most crucial and important final.

Could Chen Yingying be such a person?

※※※

Sharapova sat in the VIP box, she didn't deliberately disguise herself, such as wearing a pair of toad sunglasses that could cover half of her face, pressing the brim of her cap to the lowest or something......

She just tied her blonde head into a ponytail and sat casually in the box.

In the first half, she was televised with two close-ups and appeared on the TV screens of 10,000 people.

She didn't care about any of that. She frowned right now and bit her lower lip, worried about her boyfriend.

It was clear from the look on his face that he was unhappy with the lack of a goal in the first half, which directly affected his mood.

He won't be affected by this in the second half, right?

If he didn't win the League Cup, he would probably still be a useless footballer in the eyes of his father, right?

※※※

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the second half. The Scots kicked off first in the second half and they could use the kick-off opportunity to attack. Although Smith asks his team to defend first, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't take advantage of the real opportunity in front of you.

So in the first ten minutes of the second half, the Glasgow Streamers still organized a few attacks.

The last of these also caused chaos in the Zenit penalty area.

At that time, the Streamer seized the moment of the Zenit backline's lack of concentration and smashed the ball into the box. Goalkeeper Malafeev rushed to attack, but the striker of the Streamers Dachevel was in a hurry to lead the ball to the middle of the goal, and the midfielder who followed up Ferguson stabbed it out!

The ball hit Krizanacki's thigh, changed direction and popped up the bottom line!

The Zenit St. Petersburg fans in the stands and the Glasgow Streamers fans exclaimed at the same time, but the meaning of what they wanted to convey was completely different.

"It's dangerous!"

"What a pity ()!"

"Ahh Zenit St. Petersburg escaped! If it weren't for the thicker thighs of Krizanacki...... Maybe they're lagging behind now! Fifty-fourth minute! Ferguson's shot almost opened the scoring for the streamers! "The English commentator is really sorry for the Glasgow Streamers.

As an Englishman, he is of course on the side of the Scottish team.

And the reaction of Advocaat over there already speaks to the attitude of the Russians towards this offensive of the Stream 1ang.

He jumped up from his seat, rushed off the coach's seat, ran to the sidelines, and roared loudly with his fists: "Steady! Steady!! ”

He was most afraid that he hadn't scored on this side, and he had already conceded a goal over there. When the time comes, the situation will be reversed in an instant, and those who had the advantage will be mired in the quagmire, while the streamers will climb out and soar into the clouds.

As if in response to his fears, the fans in the stands cheered and sang again after the initial regrets, and they were cheering the team up in this way.

It is clear that the momentum of the Glasgow Stream has risen, and if there is no way to contain them...... Zenit is in jeopardy!

※※※

Chen Yingying ran back into the box and used his header to help the team defend. He really doesn't like to defend, but he kind of has a bit of a big picture and knows that he has to come back to defend at this time.

His addition immediately lightened the pressure on the defenders. Chen Yingying's header is excellent, not only in attack, but also in defense.

But this time the corner kick was not him, nor was it anyone. Because the Glasgow Stream 1 Ang chose tactical foot balls.

They passed the football out and reorganized the attack ().

As soon as Chen Yingying saw this situation, he stopped staying in the penalty area, ran out, symbolically made a defensive gesture, and ran back to the vicinity of the center circle and returned to his position. Arshavin, who had stayed in front to fight back, retreated and participated in the team's defense.

※※※

The morale of the Glasgow Streamers was indeed boosted by the near-goal attack.

Then they organized a series of offensives, all of which were quite threatening.

For example, in the sixtieth minute, Stephen. Davies dribbled sideways at the edge of the box and then suddenly shot with his feet!

Shirokov subconsciously stretched out his foot to block it, and the football changed lines and flew out of the bottom line, another corner kick!

"During this time, Zenit suddenly became very passive...... "Yuri. Petrov is worried for the team.

Smith's original plan was to make the team solid defensively, but seeing that the team's offensive momentum is so good now, he also changed his mind temporarily - just go on and just go on and if he can score a goal, he will quickly return to the defense.

He also stepped down from the dugout and stood on the sidelines to watch the game. Looking forward to being able to jump up and cheer for the goal.

ps, sorry, was defeated by ord2oo7, tossed for a while, forgot the time.

The update was a little late.

Because I don't know if there will be a chance to add more in the evening, so I said in advance - tomorrow my relatives will come to celebrate my birthday, they say that a man's life should be nine years old, not full, and the twenty-ninth birthday should be done as the thirtieth birthday. Thirty and standing, so to invite relatives to come, when there are many guests at home, if the monthly pass update is delayed, not in time, please forgive me.
