Chapter 372: Unpatriotic?
Belbart continued to say in surprise, and the Manchester City fans also let out crazy cheers.
They couldn't be happier!
The frustration in the first half made them feel that the team had little hope for this game, after all, Aston Villa is not a weak team, they are bent on defense, and it is too difficult for the team to recover two goals.
But the team did it!
In 45 minutes, two goals, especially Torres's goal, were a gorgeous individual performance, and its wonderful scenes deserve to be remembered many times by anyone.
The big screen at the scene also played the goal process over and over again, from the slow motion can be seen what Torres did, how impossible it was, kicked the ball into the goal, it can be said that the only one was that gap at that time, as an experienced goalkeeper, Sorensen almost did not leave any space for Torres, but Torres captured the only moment of opportunity and scored the ball.
Although the goal was a bit humiliating, it was the only space, the only option.
"From the slow motion we can see that there is no way to do this, Torres can almost only shoot on his toes, and at that moment, there is space between Sorensen's feet, which is the only space, if you look at it that way, there is a bit of luck in this goal, but Torres scored the ball."
"Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe it's Torres' quality, and we'll have to interview Torres himself after the game to find out."
Sky Sports commentator George Woodgate said:
At this point, Torres was excited to score, and it was his first Premier League goal.
He always thought he could go into a goal drought, but now this goal broke everything, he didn't have a goal drought, he just wasn't lucky.
With the first goal and soon a second, Torres feels like his Premier League goal path is about to begin.
When I was dribbling the ball in the box just now. It felt so good, now that he thinks about it, it's incredible, that pass, that shot, looking back on it, it feels like it's amazing.
Myself...... It's amazing!
Torres thought excitedly, but he didn't forget one thing, which was to walk up to the opposing goalkeeper Sorensen and apologize.
He said in his pouting English, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”
Sorensen's face flushed, and his heart was full of irritation. After listening to Torres's words, his face did not improve much.
He knew that what the other party said was the truth, but he was unwilling to accept the apology, because ...... He has been humiliated.
It's like when you are making trouble and walking, someone doesn't pay attention to waving your arm to give you an elbow, the other party must not be paying attention, but if your cheeks hurt, you will definitely not forgive the other party so easily.
At most, I was angry and said, "It's okay!" "The anger is on the face.
Sorensen did the same.
"Damn it. It's okay! He yelled at Torres.
Looking at this guy's expression, Torres didn't feel much apologies in his heart, and then he hugged his teammates who came over and ran back together to continue the game.
Stoppage time just went in. There are still three minutes left, and maybe there is still time to overtake the score!
――――
In the three minutes of stoppage time, the game was still very exciting.
Aston Villa desperately tried to keep the back of the net, while City's attack continued. Wave after wave, but time was running out, and in the end City failed to score. The two teams drew 2:2.
After the game, many commentators were still talking about Torres' goal.
It's the same with the fans.
Almost everyone was amazed by the goal, by Torres' footwork, as George Woodgate described, "it was a mastery of craftsmanship!" "It was the crotch goal that went through the crotch at the end that didn't matter.
Perhaps Sorensen's irritation would subside a little, but no one would care about his thoughts.
Wan Sheng was quite happy with Torres' performance.
When the match was over, he stood on the sidelines to meet Torres and complimented, "Well done, Fernando!" ”
Torres smiled, "Thank you! Top dog! ”
Wan Sheng nodded, then walked towards the away team's coach's box and took the initiative to shake hands with the opposing coach Martin O'Neal.
At this time, O'Neal had a wry smile on his face, "Your team, there are so many outstanding players. I didn't expect you to really score two goals in half time. I thought I was going to win. ”
Wan Sheng replied with a smile, "Our luck is better. ”
"It wasn't pure luck. Your players are really good. Darren Bent, Fernando Torres, now I'm not surprised that I've been told you're going to be the team with the most goals this season. These two players are so good, and a couple of your midfielders, especially Morris, it's hard for me to imagine that he was still out of the Championship a few years ago......
Martin O'Neill sighed.
In the second half of the game, Manchester City's 'firepower' was so strong that he couldn't believe that it was a team in the first and second halves.
When Manchester City burst out with 'firepower', it was really terrifying.
Throughout the second half, O'Neill felt like his goal could be breached at any moment, but City only scored two goals and Aston Villa managed to take a point away at the Manchester Stadium.
Both sides are pleased with this result.
Although it is disappointing not to win the game, but taking away a point at Manchester Stadium is not something that any team can do, and it can even be said that Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, etc., the top teams in England, are difficult to do, Aston Villa is good, but there is still a gap with the above three teams, but they take away a point, what is not satisfied?
Wan Sheng is also happy and very satisfied with the game.
Although it was a pity to only get one point, it was a big win.
He saw a problem in the game, and changing it will definitely give the team a big attacking quality, and at the same time, he has also gained a 'Torres who can score goals'.
Torres's 'goal drought' is also a big problem, although his ability and state are fine, but the mentality is something that the football training master system can't help, no matter how strong the player's ability is, as a striker in front of the goal, if there is a shadow, it is difficult to have outstanding performance.
Now that Torres has scored, there is no mental problem, and Wan Sheng is sure that he can perform better in the future games.
A draw, in exchange for two gains, is worth it!
Wan Sheng also knows what to do at the moment, which is to give Torres more attention and give him more confidence, so that he will definitely have a better mentality and perform better in the future.
So Wan Sheng took Torres to the post-match press conference, and of course, he didn't forget Darren Bent.
Darren Bent's four goals in five games have been phenomenal, and he is the best striker scorer for the 20 teams in the Premier League so far.
As he expected, and what the media said, "After Anelka's departure, Darren Bent became a regular striker, and more playing time also allowed him to burst out in full swing." ”
After coming to the press conference, Wan Sheng walked to the rostrum and first praised Aston Villa's performance, and then he directly talked about the international break, "For professional players, it is an honor to join the national team and represent the country in international competitions, but I hope that the national teams, when recruiting players, will consider their form and actual situation. ”
'Before this game, I was very smart when I was in the squad because I didn't have any players available. A lot of people in the squad have just come back, and if you think about the physical condition of the players, I can't even make up the squad. ”
But the British media are not interested in Wansheng's 'complaint', if Manchester City loses the game, maybe they will still be interested, but Manchester City did not lose, but scored two goals in the second half to tie the score, then there is no point in 'complaining'.
In the hearts of the reporters who came to interview, Wan Sheng is no longer the protagonist, because there are more suitable protagonists: Torres and Darren Bent.
Darren Bent scored four goals in five rounds and was the best striker in the Premier League's first five rounds; Fernando Torres scored his first Premier League goal with a masterful footwork.
Now that these media reporters want to start interviewing two players, there is nothing more to say about him.
Wan Sheng didn't care, but waved his hand to let the media interview the two, and he was happy to sit and watch.
But there are still some reporters who are interested in Wansheng, such as the Chinese reporters who came to interview, in recent times, Wansheng has 'stirred' domestic sports news, all kinds of news are reporting his news, many large forums are controversing over his affairs, and a large number of netizens and commentators are involved.
The incident even made it to CCTV's morning sports news, but the CCTV report was more conservative, and the host did not participate in the discussion, but only reported on the recent controversy.
So when I had the opportunity to interview Wan Sheng, a Chinese reporter immediately asked, "Mr. Wan Sheng, I don't know if you have paid attention to the recent domestic public opinion, and now many people think that you should not criticize the Chinese national team's squad, what do you think about this?" ”
"What do I think?"
Wan Sheng was in a good mood, but when he heard the question, he suddenly became angry.
It was because of the impact of the international break that the team sent a semi-substitute lineup, playing so passively in the first half, and doing their best in the second half to win the draw.
The national team's game affects the club's results, and as the club's head coach, what happened to his last two sentences? What's more, he didn't say anything specifically, and what he said was also aimed at all national teams, not just the Chinese team.
Before the international break, he did focus on a few words, but he did not submit the name of the Chinese team, and he did not even mention the players.
Unpatriotic?
Unwilling to make sacrifices for the development of national football?
This big hat can really be buttoned! If you complain and say a word, it will directly become unpatriotic? (To be continued.) )
