Chapter Seventy-Six: A Hot Heart
"Oh! Oh my God! What happened! Did you really not get in? ā
In the Sky Sports studio, Andy Gray and Martin Taylor are howling wolf. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Oh my God! Jump so high! Fly so far! The judgment of the landing point is so accurate! I can't say that this is something that only a professional killer can do! ā
"Amazing bounce! See how high the ball is when hit in slow motion! What an exaggeration! It's 2.5 meters above the ground! Hook shot, oh no! The barb is cleared, and this amazing kid has left everyone with another unforgettable weekend! ā
"As soon as this ball came out, it suddenly made me feel that in addition to the top ten goals, top ten saves, and top ten passes, there should also be a top ten clearance!"
"Haha, what a great idea! Seriously, even after playing the footage several times in a row, I still watched it with enthusiasm! ā
'Yes, I think the Arsenal players feel the same way.'
"Yes, the key performance at the critical moment, who said that only scoring goals can show value!"
"Look at Graham's face! It is obvious that Tottenham Hotspur is unlucky! ā
The analysis and intuition of the two senior commentators are also on point.
When the final 15 minutes of the game came, Tottenham, who had played 11 and 10, were relieved.
The first half of the game was clearly too much of a drain on them, and the first 15 minutes of the second half were not a lot of pressure, but when it came to the substitutions, the opponent's forced acceleration once again exacerbated their physical exertion, so that now both sides are at a tipping point in their fitness.
This most difficult stage is often when a team's spiritual leader comes into play. Although Yu Mo was still far from this goal, it did not prevent him from playing the role of spiritual leader at this time.
As a seasoned professional athlete, there are few who don't believe in the power of the underworld, and so do the commentators and the players and coaches.
In fact, Defoe's one-on-one ball handling was obviously a little lacking in confidence. Otherwise, with the speed of 11.20 seconds in the 100 meters, it would be too late to catch up with the ball. However, for a little guy who has only a few senior team games experience, being able to get past the goalkeeper in a flashing light and flint and complete a reasonably reliable shot is above the level, and nothing can be demanded.
What really relieved Tottenham was the condition of their opponents.
He is also a first-year Premier League freshman. is also 18 years old, and he has excellent physical fitness, but the difference in results is really difficult to maintain a normal heart.
At this point in the game, any missed opportunity is likely to result in severe penalties. Tottenham players know this, and even if they barely brace themselves in the face of the opponent's menacing attack, they will inevitably be a little lacking in confidence.
The punishment came unexpectedly after 10 minutes.
Arsenal's front three were heavily watched by their opponents, but the real danger man Nicolas Anelka didn't get enough attention due to his impatient performance. As a result, the game was played at this time, and the Frenchman, who has always liked to work alone, was really tired. No more thinking about how to keep the ball at your feet.
The last piece of the war puzzle has finally been found.
Anelka is a central striker, and he can use his speed to create a killing opportunity in a quick counterattack, and he does not have the ability to take the ball through five levels and kill six players in positional battles. However, just because he doesn't have that ability doesn't mean he won't do it, especially when he takes the ball against a dense defense in the middle, and the Frenchman has been defeated and defeated.
So Arsenal's attack was in the playmaking phase. The three guys rarely pass to him without pressure.
With Jumo dropping back to play at centre-back, Patrick Vieira, as the only midfielder, didn't dare to get too far up. Therefore, the combination of Ljungberg and Bergkamp is effectively a two-man turn. Once the duo became familiar with their opponents, their destructive power began to drop significantly, and Ovi Marston looked lonely on the left.
Anelka's timely return solves this problem, and by the way, it also adds a strong touch to the image of the "prodigal son" in the previous game.
In the 86th minute of the game, Tottenham, who had recovered all the time, still had some care, and finally Anelkara came out of the box to act as a cake feeder. On the left side, Overmars scored with a powerful shot in front of the small penalty area!
The excited Dutchman didn't hesitate to do anything, and immediately rushed to the French to give him a warm hug.
Anelka also feels good about playing this role, and although the Dutchman's overtures do not make him cold, he will be happy, and there is no need to spoil the atmosphere with words and deeds.
It's a pity that the Dutch are a little mistaken.
"Stay here."
Celebrated. As Overmars put his arm around Anelka's shoulders and walked back, he couldn't help but say.
"Why?" The Frenchman shrugged his shoulders and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Real Madrid is not a club with a human touch...... "Overmars was a little disappointed, and he stopped halfway through.
"Not here." Anelka spread his hands and turned away.
Overmars sighed and turned his gaze to the other guy.
Seeing the Dutchman's gaze, Yu Mo gave a thumbs up from afar.
......
The 2-1 scoreline put Arsenal's defence to the test in the final moments, but for Jumo it was all over.
After all, if you add stoppage time, the game is only less than 10 minutes, 10 to 11 and 2:1 lead, you have to be more NC to continue to press out and play against the attack?
This product actually has a lot of shortcomings in the central defender position.
As a defender, it's much more important not to make mistakes than to be highlight, so the most common mistake a rookie guard makes is inconsistent play. In these 45 minutes, except for the reverse hook clearance, he still seemed a little reckless at other times, and his positional sense was obviously not as good as that of a serious central defender.
In addition to this, there is the problem of coordination.
The backline is a unit, and it is very important to know each other and tacit understanding, and it is no wonder that he, a guy who is not treated well by the English in the first place, can be popular when he jokingly shoehorns himself into such an important game.
Even if a professional player has a professional attitude, in the face of this situation, it is inevitable that the other party will have the idea of making the other party suffer. This was true of Adams, as were the other elders. But fortunately, Tottenham's attack power is really average. Seeing that the battle was quite large, but the rhythm was not compact enough, except for that counterattack, which seized the gap in the defensive line, there was not enough ability to amplify this tacit understanding at other times.
There are actually many people who can do this kind of thing, but no one dares to say that they can do the same thing in that situation.
So the English were collectively depressed.
The backline, which they are proud of, made mistakes in the first half and sent away the good situation, and in the second half they had to rely on others to fill the holes. This performance is clearly a failure. On top of that, Yumo's disruption of the dressing room goes unpunished and proves once again the fact that the Englishman's influence in this team is declining.
If the rumored Schalke 04 goalkeeper is successful in the winter window, then it seems that they can all be disarmed and returned to the field next season!
Unwilling!
If you are unwilling, you can't help it, now the situation is stronger than people, so you won't take the initiative to mess up when your grades are red, right?
Even more depressed than the English is Petit.
The two-game appointment has passed, and the opponent is simply playing big!
In two key games like this, this guy showed his tactical level for the first time. The second showed its comprehensiveness. Even if he didn't score, his role on and off the pitch was further understood, remembered, compared to him.
In fact, the characteristics of the two are 108,000 miles apart, where can they be compared. However, the two are now competing for the same position, and they are competing in this way of tearing their faces in front of everyone, who do you not compare?
It's not a goal to help the team win, so you have to put on the shooting boots. When the data is brushed up, can he still have a day to turn over?
What's even more infuriating. Anelka suddenly didn't pay much attention to this matter!
As a compatriot, he knew too well the loose personality of the French. Now that the winter window is about to open, one more outstanding performance will be one more asking weight, and Anelka will naturally not delay his future because of old hatred at a critical juncture.
Aside from this guy, Wiltord has always been vague and the Grimandi are soft-spoken. The only one who helped him was Patrick Vieira.
It's not easy to whisper to her former little brother, and Petit has a bit of a sense of open-mindedness this time.
"Hey, Patrick, come out for a drink in the evening?"
After tidying up in the locker room, the French didn't deliberately keep their voices down. Still grinning.
He didn't expect Vieira to dismiss him in public, unless the guy wasn't going to have a good life with the national team.
Really.
"Okay, but I can't drink much." Vieira replied with a blank face, without looking around.
The other people's facial expressions were also calm, except for Wiltord, who was a little uneasy.
The old man looked left and right, but didn't find Anelka, so he magnified his courage and asked with a smile, "How much can't you drink?" ā
In fact, Vieira's alcohol consumption is known to the French, and deliberately asking at this time is obviously brushing up on the sense of existence.
Petit frowned slightly, and quickly nodded and said, "You come too, and Grimandi, I'm in for a treat tonight, old place!" ā
After saying that, the four of them left the locker room together, and the English lost a lot of people in this game, and they were also in a hurry at this time. After a while, there were only four people left in the huge room.
"Why don't we get together too?"
Overmars turned his head to look around, a smile on his face.
"Okay, I'm fine."
Bergkamp agreed so happily that he surprised his compatriots a little.
"Dennis, uh, no problem, what about you guys?" Overmars froze for a moment, and raised his hand to the opposite side.
The four of them were actually divided into two places, quite far apart, and the Dutchman's voice was neither loud nor small, and it was difficult to determine whether the target was one or three.
"Okay, of course I'm fine!" Ljungberg was a little excited, and then stood up and waved his hand at the other side.
You Mo's reaction was more nonsense.
"Recently, my wife has been strictly checked, come to my house tomorrow, take care of it!"
To tell the truth, the Oriental people originally had a sense of mystery in the eyes of Europeans, not to mention that this product is said to have married three wives at home, and it is impossible to say that they are not curious. Therefore, as soon as You Mo spoke, the other three guys were busy agreeing.
In order to create an atmosphere, Overmars also made a special phone call, giving a bunch of examples to prove how difficult it is to invite the big Buddha in Bergkamp. You Mo naturally understood the Dutchman's intentions, and thanked him repeatedly.
In fact, this thing really didn't take his current situation seriously, and invited this big Buddha to his home just because he promised others.
The next night, home.
"The old cow is a good mix!"
As soon as they met, Lu Wei shouted.
He was much better in the Red Devils' dressing room than Yomo, but Manchester United's league results have been up and down, and this round was a shock defeat to Everton. As a result, they are not only six points behind Arsenal in the standings, but Liverpool behind them are already tied on points.
This situation has made Red Devils fans very unhappy.
It's just that Arsenal, which is in full form, can't catch up, what's the matter with being caught up by sworn rivals Liverpool?
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Manchester United suffered a knee injury from Roy Keane quickly after Cantona's retirement, and the midfield was clearly lacking some hardness. Therefore, although the team's attack has improved a lot, the defense has been in frequent problems, as evidenced by the fact that the defeat to Everton was 2:3.
Manchester United have performed well in the Champions League, and a win in the next game will advance to the round of 16. However, due to the stumbling of the league game, not many people in Europe are really optimistic about them.
"You haven't been playing well lately."
You Mo replied unceremoniously and began to introduce enthusiastically.
In fact, where to use the introduction, the guy Lu Wei here is much more familiar than him, but these people who brought their families and mouths were a little surprised.
A family party between Arsenal players, and a Manchester United guy coming over to mess with it?
Even though you're like brothers, but you're not on the same team now, and you don't live together like you used to, Baba called over to listen to the story of the Arsenal locker room?
"Oh, I forgot to mention that. This guy has loved watching Dennis play since he was a child, and he was called over to fulfill his wish for many years. ā
You Mo will not hide anything, and the truth will be revealed in one sentence.
"Well, that's ......," Overmars spoke first, breaking the brief silence, his face embarrassed as if he were the one involved.
"You're a better fit for our team than he is." Bergkamp looked indifferent, obviously this kind of thing couldn't affect his mood.
"yes, it's a pity that the labor certification is holding back." Lu Wei didn't feel any discomfort, and nodded with a smile.
"It's strange that your national football team would reject you." Ljungberg showed up at the right time and gossiped.
"We voluntarily refused." Lu Wei still looked calm, and did not forget to explain the reason, "The contradiction has long existed, and it just broke out this year, so there may be a turnaround in the future." ā
This watertight answer instantly blocked the topic, and You Mo, as the master, naturally couldn't be indifferent.
"You should be excited when you see an idol, what kind of old man is you pretending?"
As soon as the words fell, a cough suddenly sounded in the living room.
"Haha, tell me, what is the most attractive thing about Dennis?" Overmars asked, interested.
Lu Wei smiled.
"Cold, sharp, persistent, these are all superficial. What attracts me is that hot heart. (To be continued.) )
