Chapter 65: The Iron Shake

Back in the dressing room, Leeds United's morale was a little low, although in fact they all knew that their team's strength was much worse than Manchester City, but after taking the lead, they were tied by their opponents, and they were pressed by the opponents, this feeling is still very depressing, and everyone will have gains and losses in this situation.

Simon Grayson sees everything in his eyes, and although he doesn't feel good about it, he has to step up and say something as a head coach at this time.

"Boys!"

Simon Grayson drew the players' attention back and then pretended to be light-hearted and laughed: "Boys, do you think it's a shame that we lost a good game after taking the lead? Do you think it's frustrating for us to be so pressed by our opponents? ”

The players are a little surprised in their hearts, their team's performance is not very good, and the initiative of the game has been completely controlled by the Manchester City team, why is the manager still laughing at this time?

"I know a lot of you are used to the games we did last season, but haven't you noticed that we're playing against an English Premier League team and we're playing against last season's Super League champions, Manchester City! Isn't it a very normal thing for us to be pressed and beaten by such a team? ”

Belch!

The Leeds United players looked at their manager and didn't know what to say.

Simon Grayson laughed, "I might as well tell you, in fact, I have already envisioned this situation, and even imagined how we should face a worse situation!" These...... I expected it! ”

At this point, Simon Grayson even believed his own words, in fact, in his subconscious, he did imagine a worse scenario, but now that he was talking, his head was nimble.

'At the end of the first half, everybody was still very good, as you can see, when we defend thoroughly, the opponent can't do anything with us, if we can take some counter-attacking opportunities in the second half on the basis of solid defense...... Well, I think you know what to do, right? ”

After being dismissed by Simon Grayson, the Leeds United players all smiled knowingly......

Oh, yes!

In the first half, we were able to withstand the opposition's attack, and if we could have taken advantage of a counter-attack opportunity to score again in the second half, wouldn't the victory be ours?

Confidence, once again, is in the Leeds United players!

And that confidence wasn't blind, it was built on the fact that they managed to keep out City's indiscriminate bombardment in the first half.

Although Simon Grayson is not a famous coach yet, he still understands the principle of striking while the iron is hot, and immediately said his tactical deployment: "In the second half, Bezio you come on the field to replace Sora, Dean, you go on the field to replace Bentley!" It's the old rule that everyone but Carlos has to be put into the defense, so that our defense will be solid, and if we score a goal, then we will win the game! Do you get it? ”

"Understood!"

Leeds United's players have really regained their confidence this time, Beccio's speed and explosiveness are much better than Ameo's, and he also has some defensive ability, and Dean Whitehead's desperate style is not comparable to David Bentley's.

In this way, Leeds United's defense has definitely been further strengthened, and on top of that, the team's counter-attacking ability has also improved, which can indeed give the "Young Guard" the light of day, compared to the dark time in the second half of the first half, it is really enough.

At the beginning of the second half, Manchester City kicked off first, and Mancini did not make any personnel changes, Manchester City's lineup is really enough to beat Leeds United in his opinion, a promoted horse, is it really necessary for them to be as cautious as they were in the Manchester derby?

Mancini's attitude towards the game, that is, Manchester City's attitude towards the game!

Although the game started unfavorably, Manchester City conceded a goal first, but they quickly controlled the initiative of the game through their strong strength, and then easily equalized, and pressed the opponent for another 20 minutes...... Underestimate the enemy!

At the beginning of the second half, Manchester City took advantage of the fact that Leeds United's formation had not shrunk very tightly, and Nasri completed a shot on the right side, but the ball was hit high by the Frenchman.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey......"

With a relaxed smile on his face, Nasri signaled to his team-mates and ran back, he was still a little reluctant to shoot just now, but no one would blame him, try more long-range shots, create more set-pieces up front, this was the task that Mancini gave them at half-time.

The slackness in mentality slowed down the Manchester City formation when it contracted, and they have forgotten that the main reason why they were able to take the initiative in the first half was because they were active enough in defending, and now they are ............ They themselves have embarked on the point of no return!

"Bang!"

Ronnegan took the goal kick straight up front and Yaya Toure won the battle with Dean Whitehead, but the 30-year-old interfered with his opponent with his own hard work, Yaya Toure's header was slightly deflected, leaving David Silva to run a few steps sideways to catch the ball.

As a result, when David Silva was still two steps away from the ball, a white figure pounced fiercely with a vicious wind!

No way!

David Silva subconsciously paused, his body could not withstand any fierce collisions, he was already scarred when he was in Valencia, if it weren't for his strong football talent, he would have been unknown to everyone.

Right now...... Never get hurt again!

David Silva decided to back down and slow down, but he still went up to try to stop his opponent, and he also wanted to see who this ferocious Leeds United player really was!

So David Silva saw a young face...... Sark!?

At this time, David Silva no longer has any heart to fight hard with the opponent, he is really no stranger to this young boy, not only his teammates Joe Hart, Richards told him, but he also really competed with this opponent, when the England team went to the European Championship before the friendly match with the Spanish team, although he was a substitute, but also has a deep understanding of this young man, although this kid looks lean and lean, but in fact is a humanoid tyrannosaurus!

After the Spanish team played against the England team, many players had a deep impression of the youngest player in the England team, and said that although this kid who can run and fight is not mature enough, his future is limitless.

David Silva believes that everyone will agree that it is not a sign of cowardice to avoid England's "Shaq", but a wise choice!

Unhindered past David Silva, Zach Thompson was also a little unexpected, he was ready to go head-to-head with his opponent, but he didn't expect that there was no use at all.

However, Zach Thompson reacted quickly, adjusting his pace and rushing forward with the ball, but he immediately met an opponent who was just as tough as him...... Yaya Toure!

Yaya Toure, a 29-year-old black player from Côte d'Ivoire, still maintains a high level of competition, and for black players, physical fitness has never been a problem, what they are poor is only skill and awareness, experience, but Yaya Toure is not lacking these, so when he faced Zach Thompson, he met it very decisively.

When the two people got closer and closer, Yaya Toure, who ran diagonally to catch up, saw that Zach Thompson didn't want to avoid any action at all, and rushed up with the ball, if he didn't close it a little, the two would definitely collide together, and if they collided like this, it was likely that someone would be injured, and Yaya Toure would definitely have to eat cards.

So, Yaya Toure turned around nimbly, and while giving way to Zach Thompson, his tall body also squeezed on Zach Thompson.

"Bang!"

Two sturdy bodies, sturdy and squeezed together!

Zach Thompson's body leaned slightly to the left, and then he took another step forward with his left foot to support his body, and although his balance was broken, the ball was still controlled on his right side, and Yaya Toure couldn't stop him!

Kindness!?

Yaya Toure, who bounced off his body and lost his balance and held himself on the turf with his left hand, couldn't help but be surprised, this kid ...... Yes!

Normally, Yaya Toure is 1.91 meters tall and weighs 90 kilograms, while Zach Thompson is only 1.84 meters tall and weighs 82 kilograms...... Zach Thompson didn't suffer at all!

"Oooo Sark! Sark! ”

Leeds United fans shouted excitedly, and many Manchester City fans also grinned, although they did not applaud their opponents, but it was enough, this is the benefit of Zach Thompson's identity to Zach Thompson, otherwise with the exclusive tradition of the English people, they would never favor him.

"Hey! Shaq is the toughest young player in recent years, winning against Yaya Toure! Tsk, this kid's body is completely iron-beaten! ”

After breaking through Yaya Toure, Zach Thompson took two more steps forward to face a third opponent...... Chrissy!

Kindness!?

The moment he saw Chrissy, Zach Thompson was sensitively aware...... Opportunity!

Sure enough, right in front of Zach Thompson's right, Beccio was already waving near the sideline!

"Luciano!"

"Smack!"

Zach Thompson was not greedy at all, and while his body was still running forward, his body suddenly slammed, and then kicked the ball to Beccio with his right foot!

"Chance!"

"It's Beccio! He received a clever pass from Shaq, there was no one around him to defend at all, and there was a large gap in front of him! ”

Without any hesitation, Bezio turned around with the ball and ran, he didn't want to waste this hard-won opportunity, now Leeds United's midfield organization is basically gone, it is unrealistic to rely on Jonny Hausen or Whitehead to pass the ball, this time Shaq fought hard to make a chance, but it really can't be missed!
