Chapter 53: I don't like the feeling of losing
When the football flew into the net, the entire Bramall Lane stadium fell silent, and all the Blades fans looked at the football still spinning in the net in disbelief, and their hearts were full of disappointment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
If the team tries their best and is still scored by the opponent, the fans can understand, after all, the gap in strength is sometimes not made up by courage.
But now, although there is a gap in strength, except for China Zhang, it seems that most of the players are not in good shape. Although the fans don't know what is going on, they are still disappointed with the team's form.
It was quiet for less than thirty seconds, and soon, bigger and crazier cheers and shouts resounded throughout the Bramall Lane stadium again. That's the fans, that's the loyal fans who will always support the team! Even if the team concedes the goal due to their own reasons, even if the team is not strong and the score is behind, they still cheer for their team unswervingly!
Some people say that a football club, the team is the soul of the club, as long as there is a strong team, the club must be successful!
In fact, this view is wrong, for a football club, only the fans are the real soul of the club, no matter how strong or weak your team is, as long as you have loyal fans, this club will always stand above the world football!
Zhang Xu saw the football fly into the net, he spat in annoyance, then ran to the net, took the football out of the net, and kicked it towards the center line with a big foot.
He was very dissatisfied with himself, and if he had run faster just now, he might have been able to get the ball out before the "telephone pole".
At the same time, I am also very unconvinced by Birmingham, even if Birmingham is slightly stronger than Sheffield United, but it is definitely not much stronger, if you measure it with the system, it is no more than 60 ability values at most, and Zhang Xu's attributes are very close, if you count physical fitness, Zhang Xu's strength is likely to exceed the level of ordinary players in Birmingham.
"Beep!" A whistle blows, and the game continues.
"Faster, faster!"
After the game started again, Zhang Xu kept muttering these two sentences in his mouth, reminding himself to run faster. Under this conscious encouragement, his two legs are like two powerful engines, like hot wheels, galloping on the court. So, on his own half, Zhang Xu's figure could be seen almost everywhere!
"Be ruthless, be ruthless!"
Everywhere Zhang Xu went, he would interfere with or interrupt Birmingham's attack with unreasonable strong tackles.
Sometimes, when he saw that the distance was too far away and he didn't have time to steal closely, he simply threw his whole body out with a flying shovel, and then drew four or five meters on the grass and shoveled the football away with his toes.
This kind of crazy tackle, one is not good, it is yellow cards and red cards, but Zhang Xu can't care about it anymore, what he needs is a more fast and effective steal and defense.
"Be on the right track, be on the right track!"
The steal does have to be ruthless, so that the opponent will be psychologically afraid, but it doesn't work to be ruthless, because it is easy to be dealt cards if you only talk about ruthlessness. So you have to be accurate, precise!
Fortunately, Zhang Xu's prediction attribute has always been relatively high, and he has reached 57 points so far, coupled with a sense of position of 56 points, which has laid a solid foundation for his accurate steals.
"Attack! I'm going to attack! ”
No matter how tough the defense is, it is all for the sake of attack. Therefore, after each successful steal, Zhang Xu looked for his teammates who received the ball at the first time, accurately passed the football to the feet of his teammates, and at the same time ran quickly to the next receiving point.
He wants to increase the tempo of the team's attack through his fast running and passing and receiving the ball, and contribute a little bit to the team's goal creation.
However, his passing attributes are not high, and the quality of the pass is naturally not flattering, and often in order to pass the ball more accurately, he has to choose short passes. And too many short passes will invisibly increase the burden of his running and intensify his physical consumption.
So, in the period before the end of the first half, all the Blades fans saw a crazy Zhang Xu, sprinting 100 meters again and again, colliding with Birmingham players again and again, falling on the grass again and again, and dyeing his clothes in colorful colors with green grass juice......
The crazy performance, which did not bring the team a goal, only brought him a yellow card for himself. This is because when he tackled, he did not control his speed and position, and put the opposing Birmingham player to the ground, the referee originally planned to give him a red card, but seeing that he was covered with grass and even his face was grass green, he couldn't bear it, and replaced the red card with a yellow card, which allowed Zhang Xu to escape.
"Beep beep!" The referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
Hearing the whistle, Zhang Xu's originally tense body suddenly relaxed, his legs also weakened, and the whole person was completely lying on the grass, kicking heavily, unable to move.
"Hello Zhang, China, can you still move?" Just as Zhang Xu was kicking and breathing heavily, a tall figure appeared in front of him, and it turned out to be Birmingham forward Zhikic!
"Hi pole, hello!" Zhang Xu laughed while kicking roughly.
"Telephone poles?" Zhikic paused for a moment, and immediately reacted: "Haha, this title is full of images!" Not bad! Then, he stretched out his right hand and said to Zhang Xu: "Zhang, get up, it's cold on the ground now, it's not good for your body to lie on the ground!" ”
"Thank you, pole!" Zhang Xu grabbed Zhikic's right hand and slowly got up with the strength of the other party.
"Man, you're really hardworking, isn't it just an FA Cup game? Your teammates aren't fighting so hard, so why should you? Zhikic helped Zhang Xu and walked towards the player's tunnel step by step.
"Nothing, just don't like the feeling of losing!" Zhang Xu smiled slightly and replied flatly.
"Uh, don't like the feeling of losing?" Zhikic paused again, this sentence seems simple, but it contains the endless desire of a player to win!
Originally, Zhikic had a good impression of the Chinese player who was trying his best to fight on the court, so he had the move to pull the other party up, and now, he not only has a good impression, but a sense of admiration.
A player who gives his all in pursuit of victory, even if he doesn't win, is enough for everyone to look up to him.
"Zhang, how do you feel?" At this time, Captain Beatty, who was put on the bench by head coach Wilson, came over, he first glanced at Zhikic with a little hostility, and then took Zhikic to hold Zhang Xu's arm and asked with concern.
"Hehe, captain, it's okay, it's going to kill me!" Zhang Xu grinned greatly, and in order to show that he had no problem, he deliberately jumped.
"It's okay, I'll fight with you in the second half!" Beatty nodded and said viciously.
"Captain?" Zhang Xu paused for a moment.
"That's right, I'll tell the boss right away, we blades never let a teammate work alone, we are a whole!" Beatty's firm tone infected Zhang Xu, so that Zhang Xu couldn't help but say: "Yes, we are a team, a whole!" ”
"Captain, count me in!" At this point, Michael interjected and said loudly.
"Count me in!" This is Williams.
"I'm going to fight too!" This is Cressville.
"Don't try to leave me behind!" This is Evans!
......
Zhang Xu found out that his teammates had not left the stadium yet, but under the leadership of captain Beatty, they slowly surrounded him, and they all said that they must fight with Zhang Xu and Birmingham!
Finally, Beatty, the captain, yelled at his passionate teammates, "We are Blade!" ”
"We have nothing to fear!" Zhang Xu and all his teammates roared loudly.
"Hahaha!" Zhikic laughed loudly from the sidelines, "Good, good! That's what I want to see! Zhang, I'm waiting for you in the second half! Come on! With that, he turned and walked towards the players' tunnel.
At this time, the fans who were about to solve the physical problem suddenly saw the team's unusual behavior, and then heard the team's eruption and roar.
The fans, who were already dissatisfied with the team's poor state, finally heard the team's determination in that roar, which immediately made the fans excited.
I didn't go to the toilet anymore, I didn't eat anything, and I didn't buy coffee! Some of the fans began to roar along with the team.
At this time, one of the fans began to sing the Sheffield United anthem loudly, and soon a second person followed suit, a third, a fourth, a fifth...... After a while, the entire sky over Bramothy Field was completely occupied by the loud singing of the fans!
Head coach Wilson couldn't help but feel excited as he watched the waves of people, the flags and scarves flying in the sky, the shouting and singing fans, and the high-pitched singing of the fans.
That's Blade! This is the spirit of the blade!
Even if the future is bumpy, we still move forward! Never back down!
Perhaps, the decision to abandon the FA Cup was not the right one!
Just because, the fans want to see the spirit of the blade, they want the team to maintain a fearless heart, and they want all the players to be full of blood!
And it was he who gave up this enthusiasm and spirit for a seemingly important reason for being promoted to the Championship!
This is the biggest mistake I made!
At this time, Wilson finally realized that he had made a wrong decision!
Fortunately, there is still half time left in the game, and there is still a chance to correct your mistakes! Wilson made up his mind and walked to the locker room with a determined pace......
