Chapter 50: No suspense
It's a game without suspense. On the one hand, it was last year's big dark horse, and this year's strength is enough to rank in the top three in the city. On the other hand, Guan Lin Middle School, which has mediocre strength and has never broken into the top 16 every year. No matter how you look at it, the time, the place, the people, and no one can see the slightest indication that Dawn will lose this game. Even their opponents did not believe that they would achieve ultimate victory.
The third round of the Luoyang Division Qualifiers of the National High School Football Championship, the one-eighth finals, Shuguang played Guan Lin at home, this is a game without suspense.
"Autumn is crisp, cloudless, the temperature is moderate, and the breeze is blowing......" Liang Ke looked up at the sky and muttered. Not far from him were the players who were warming up before the game. The team members were very relaxed and even joked with each other. Zhang Jun took advantage of Yang Pan's inattention to "plot" against Yang Pan, but was chased by Yang Pan all over the field. Outsiders found out that Zhang Jun also has such a fast speed, and he is not inferior to Yang Pan! Every time he saw Yang Pan stretch out his hand, he could grab him, but as soon as he bowed, he accelerated, and the distance between the two people was widened.
There was a lot of laughter on the court, influenced by the players, and the Shuguang students who came to watch the game also seemed very relaxed, they talked about the upcoming game, Yang Pan will score a few goals, Zhang Jun will score a few goals, Kaka will have a wonderful performance, Ren Yudi's beautiful performance, etc.
The opponent of the game is admittedly mediocre, and the result of the game is even a person with an IQ of 35. The key is the dawn of the powerful attacking power, how many goals can be scored in this game, three? Or five?
Even reporters opened their mouths, "How is Zhang Jun", "How is Yang Pan", "How is Kaka", "Kaka is so and so"......
No one cares about the other team that comes to play, there are no well-known stars, there are no brilliant records, not even handsome players and beautiful managers. They seem to be born to be the kind of extras who don't have a single line.
But no one noticed that in this joyful and relaxed atmosphere, only Ren Yu kept his face dark and didn't say a word.
Liang Ke also seemed very relaxed in the pre-game arrangement, just explained a few questions that had to be explained in every game, and then said to everyone: "There is nothing to say, you can play as you want on the field!" ”
On the other side, the coach of Guan Lin Middle School said to his players: "You do your best to play and don't leave yourself with any regrets." ”
The referee blew the whistle and the game started on time.
As soon as the game began, Dawn took the initiative to attack. Kaka pulls the ball in a very beautiful turn in the middle, light as if dancing ballet. His action immediately caused the members of the "Kaka Guards Regiment" outside the stadium to scream again and again. Even the reporters on the sidelines came to join in the fun, and the camera flash in their hands kept flashing.
After Kaka passed, he used the outside of his right foot to rub an arc to the right. After Yang Pan received the ball, he made a feint to break through, and the Guan Lin defender who came up to defend him immediately turned around and ran back, but at this time, Yang Pan smiled, flicked the ball, and broke through to the middle. After the breakthrough, he stuffed the ball straight to Zhang Jun who ran towards him.
Zhang Jun ran diagonally into the penalty area from outside the penalty area, and the opponent immediately had two defenders pressing up, Zhang Jun received Yang Pan's pass, did not pause, and directly knocked the ball to Ren Yudi behind him.
No one is watching! Although the angle of the shot is a little smaller, it is the angle that Ren Yudi is good at, and he shoots with his feet!
All the Dawn players and fans raised their hands and stood up to celebrate the first goal.
In the dawn cheerleaders neatly "Dawn! Goal! Dawn! In the shout of "goal ......", Ren Yudi's shot went over the leg of the defender, the goalkeeper's hand, and then flew over the crossbar of the goal and flew directly out of the bottom line.
The cheers outside the arena were as if someone had changed the stage, and immediately turned into heavy sighs.
The photojournalists, who had been busy for half a day, recorded nothing more than a failed shot.
Ren Yudi, who missed the goal, looked very annoyed, lowered his head, and walked back without saying a word. Zhang Jun ran over to comfort him: "It's nothing! It's nothing! It was just the first shot on goal, and there were chances. ”
Ren Yu looked up at Zhang Jun, Zhang Jun smiled at him, and ran back to his position.
"What a beautiful fit! It's a shame that the goal didn't go in! "When Chen Huafeng is watching the game, he always likes such a person to talk to himself. Xiao Zhang didn't know what to say at first, thinking that Chen Huafeng was talking to him, so he took over the conversation, and the result was always miserable. Later, Xiao Zhang learned to be obedient, as long as Chen Huafeng didn't ask him by name, he generally didn't open his mouth. lest you get into trouble again. "The cooperation of these four people is becoming more and more tacit. Kaka's passing, Yang Pan's speed, Ren Yudi's technique, and finally Zhang Jun's fatal blow. With such an attacking lineup, I dare say that even if it is put into the national competition, there are few opponents! Chen Huafeng was still talking to himself.
"Dawn's attack power really lives up to its reputation! Hehe! It seems that Yudi is in a good state today! ”
In another corner of the stands, there was also a person who "sighed" like this.
The frightened Guan Lin team opened the goal, the football fell to the midfield, and in just ten seconds, the ball fell to the feet of the Dawning team again. Wang Ning was very beautiful and squeezed away the opponent's leading player in the scramble and broke the football. In the first two games, Wang Ning has made great progress, his steal success rate is getting higher and higher, and the accuracy of medium and long passes is also improving.
Correspondingly, Chen Bo and Lin Xiaofang, the two first-year guards, have also improved rapidly. In the last game, Lin Xiaofang's goal-front save is a good proof that they will use their brains to play football. This made Liang Ke pleased, "I'm not afraid of fast speed and good technology, I'm afraid of using my brain." "When a player knows how to play with his brain, he has a great future. Chen Bo's undying physical strength and fierce and accurate tackles, Lin Xiaofang's strong body plus the improvement of his defensive awareness, coupled with the experience of Li Jieguang and Xie Wei, two senior guards, such a back line can finally reassure Liang Ke, and they have built a barrier in front of Anke. Conceding just one goal in two games is a testament to that.
Wang Ning launched an attack with a long pass. After Yang Pan received the ball, he directly shifted to the left side of the court.
Ren Yu stopped the ball with his chest, then shook it for a moment, but did not break through to the penalty area, but passed it back to the left wing-back Xie Wei, who came up with the assist.
Liang Ke frowned, just now it was a good opportunity to break through, because Yang Pan's transfer made Guan Lin's back line chaotic, and if Ren Yudi broke through, he had a great chance of scoring a goal. But he passed the ball when he shouldn't have been selfless. Liang Ke felt that Ren Yudi was a little strange today, usually he was five people in front of him, and he would break through inward "without hesitation" and "never look back". He will only choose to pass the ball when he is in the box. And at that time, whether he shoots or passes, it will be deadly. But today, Ren Yu is surprisingly selfless!
Xie Wei passed the ball to Li Hao, one of the two backs, and Li Hao then passed the ball to Chen Bo, who rushed up. Now even half of the backline, which is easy to move at dawn, has overwhelmed half of the field, which shows how one-sided the situation on the field is.
Guan Lin's players all withdrew to their own half. Dawning is well-known for its attacking power, and the Guan Lin team has never been able to defend better than the Iron Bucket Formation. Last year, Nanyang successfully held the 62-minute attack of Dawn with an iron bucket formation. Therefore, Guan Lin also followed the example of Nanyang. However, they forgot that this year's dawn is not the dawn of last year, and this year they have a midfield playmaker with outstanding skills, excellent passing and first-class awareness - Kaka.
Kaka dribbled the ball, turned around, changed direction, accelerated, and passed the ball from the crowd to Zhang Jun, who turned around and hit the goal!
The goalkeeper desperately saved the ball, and the defender did not dare to slack off and quickly cleared the siege.
The relaxed expression on Liang Ke's face became less and less, and his brows gradually locked. Ren Yudi is really wrong. The opening shot went wide; Then in the face of the opponent's empty defense, he chose to pass the ball, instead of the breakthrough he is good at; Just now another pass has been deflected off to Java. Many of Dawn's attacks were forced to end with him.
After 30 minutes of the first half, Dawn still did not open the situation, and the score was still 0:0. Guan Lin is starting to gradually regain his confidence, and they have now had a few counterattacks.
The voices of the spectators who were fighting outside the arena gradually became quieter. Although the scene was intense, they were not much interested in not scoring any goals. For them, a game without scoring is a good game.
In the thirty-seventh minute of the first half, Guan Lin counterattacked. Xie Wei's reckless tackle was dodged by the opponent's No. 20 winger! Dawn hurriedly returned to the defense. In addition to Zhang Jun, Yang Pan, Ren Yudi, and Kaka all returned to the 30-meter area of their own side.
Cross No. 7! Low Flat Ball!
Anke moved out, ready to confiscate the unthreatening cross directly.
Ren Yudi, who was returning to the defense at high speed, shoveled over with one foot and wanted to tackle the ball. He grabbed Anke before he tackled the ball, but the ball did not fly out of the bottom line as expected, but rolled towards the goal!
Oolong!
Anke was shocked, but he still changed direction and pounced on the ball. On the goal line, he was embarrassed to shoot the football off the line. And he himself almost hit the goalpost.
Except for the people from Guanlin Middle School, and someone in the corner of the stands, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In the case of taking advantage and not being able to attack for a long time, losing points in the form of own goals will be a huge blow to the Dawning team.
This goal, which almost became an own goal, still caused a little trouble for Dawn. From the corner, the chaos in the Dawning penalty area could be seen.
It's been a long time since the Dawn of the Dawn has been so chaotic, and it's like returning to last year's Dawn. The ball was bouncing around in the foot-strewn penalty area, and Anke was so engrossed that he would be trampled to death if he pounced now.
I don't know who kicked the ball to the front, and the crisis in the penalty area was finally lifted.
Liang Ke's expression became serious, judging from Ren Yudi's tackle just now, it didn't look like a clearance, but more like a shot! Liang Ke was frightened by this thought of his own, and it took him a while to react. Why did Ren Yudi do this?
Liang Ke remembered Ren Yudi's past. Before he went to high school, he was a well-known gangster. The family has money, but he seems to be very dissatisfied with that kind of tutoring, and he is rebellious, and he is unconventional everywhere, and he gets involved with those street gangsters. What he did was enough to be opened a hundred times according to the rules of his school at that time, but each time the family came forward to settle it with money. He was even more disgusted with this practice at home, and intensified his efforts to make trouble for his family. His father, who couldn't bear it, even moved the idea of sending him to a work-study school. However, on the day she went to sign up, her mother, who loved her son, not only sobbed when she thought that her son would not be able to see each other every day as soon as he entered the work-study school. The father's heart softened the mother's tears, and he gave up this idea at the last moment, so Ren Yudi did not become a member of Sunshine Middle School after all.
Later, when he went to high school, because Wen Jiucheng, the director of Shuguang's political and educational office, and Ren Yudi's father were old comrades-in-arms, Ren Yudi came to Shuguang Middle School. As we all know, his love for football eventually led him to change his ways.
This is Ren Yudi's past, he once had a dark past. But his future is bright, why? Liang Ke knew that Ren Yudi had made a lot of bad "friends" in society, could it be ......
Match-fixing!
These two words suddenly jumped out, startling Liang Ke. High school football has become more and more popular in recent years, attracting many fans and attracting some flies. Liang Ke had heard some things about high school players being involved in match-fixing, but he didn't expect it to fall on his head one day.
But why did Ren Yudi get involved in match-fixing? Judging by his performances, his technique has made him firmly in the main position, and he has also received praise from many experts, he has also gained the trust of his teammates, made a group of real friends, and he is not short of money to spend...... Why? What is there that is worth the price of all this? His friends, his happiness, his tomorrow, such a big bet, is it worth it?
The referee blew two whistles and the first half was over. The two sides fought to a 0:0 draw, which many people did not expect before the game.
