Chapter 40: Mental Quality

On the field, Derby County launched a wave of fast attacks.

The ball was passed back and forth between Morris and Van der Vaart, and when he couldn't find the first chance in front of the box, Morris passed the ball to Franck Ribery in front of him.

Ribery was about to rush into the box with the ball, but was stopped by a Schalke 04 defender.

Van der Vaart hurriedly reached for the ball.

In the usual times, whether it is training or playing, the cooperation between Morris, Van der Vaart and Ribery is very tacit, and it is with continuous cooperation that the three of them have the name of the 'trident' on the left side of Derbyshire, according to the 'script', at this time Ribery should pass the ball to Van der Vaart, who can't find a chance to cross again, Morris plugged in just to get a chance, this is a tactical combination that has been used many times in training and games.

But now it's a little different.

At the front of the left penalty area, Ribery made a shooting action, seeing this action, the Schalke 04 defender subconsciously wanted to block, and the Derby County players knew that Ribery was going to pass the ball, but no one expected that Ribery did not choose to pass, but directly buckled the ball and wanted to pass the defender in front of him.

In such a dense defensive position, it is a little unwise, if it succeeds, it is better to say, the key is that this time ∴□ Ribery failed, because Schalke 04 has more than one defender, their left-back also followed the bag, although Ribery shook the opponent in front of him, but was entangled by another player, although he tried his best to shake to complete the escape, but in the end it was broken under the bag of the two.

The Derby County attack also came to an end

'Derby County missed a good chance and Ribery was dispossessed,' said Alf, the commentator at the Pride Stadium, with some regret.

Fans in the stands at Pride Stadium also regretted the missed opportunity.

On the coach's bench.

"Hell! Bastard! Wan Sheng waved his fist and scolded fiercely, "Damn, what the hell is he doing!" ”

"Maybe he didn't notice?" Diamares persuaded.

"Didn't see that? Damn it! If you look at that kind of pass, he can still start? Wan Sheng said a little annoyed, this is naturally not said casually, the players on the playing field, a lot of passing cooperation is in accordance with tactics. Maybe it's relying on the habit of training on weekdays, rather than just looking at it with your eyes, people's reaction speed is limited, in the fierce game can not always know how to pass the ball at the first time, if you want to pass the ball well, you naturally have to rely on habits and tactics, etc., just now Ribery's position should obviously pass the ball, plus he and Van der Vaart, Morris more than once, not passing must be his own reason.

If it's just once, it can only be said that the temporary performance is not good, but this is not the first time.

Wan Sheng felt rather annoyed.

Just look at the time. There were still a few minutes left in the first half, and Wan Sheng didn't replace Ribery, he still wanted to wait for halftime to give Ribery some 'guidance', it should be accurate to say that it was to educate this guy verbally and let him know what to do.

Of course, Ribery didn't hear Wan Sheng's angry scolding, and he didn't know that Wan Sheng was very angry with his cousin at this time, and he was a little sorry for taking a chance just now. However, he still felt that he could express himself better, as long as there was a better expression for a while, this mistake would be fine.

Soon the next opportunity will come again.

It was Leyton Bynes' break, the first time after the break. He passed the ball to Ribery in front of him, Ribery did not pause, and rushed forward with the ball, his speed was still very fast. The table is also quite good, as soon as he crossed the halfway line, he directly shook off the Schalke 04 player who came to grab the ball. At this time, Ribery should pass the ball again, after all, he has already reached the front, and there is not much space to go forward, but Ribery still did not pass, he cut the ball horizontally to the middle.

Ribery's choice made Morris who was following behind him a little dazed, because the positions of the two were a bit repetitive, Morris could only stagger Ribery's position, but Ribery had already fallen into the opponent's interception, and finally the football was robbed by the opponent, and he himself did not maintain a good balance and fell directly to the ground.

But the fall didn't garner a modicum of sympathy.

The referee didn't say anything, and Wan Sheng in the coach's seat couldn't bear it, and he directly asked Diamares to notify the fourth official to ask for a substitution.

"It's not a good time to change people, right?" Diamares looked at the time and said.

With three minutes to go, the first half of the game is coming to an end, and it is better to maintain the lineup in this period of time, and it is better to make substitutions in the second half.

But Wan Sheng can't bear it anymore!

"Substitution, let Leto go up!" Wan Sheng decided.

Diamares couldn't change his decision, so a substitution was quickly raised on the sidelines, with Derby County calling for a substitution, with Frank Ribery being substituted and full-back Leto Ziegler coming on.

Up to now, Leto Ziegler is only 18 years old, as the youngest player in the team, Wansheng still attaches great importance to his training, young players, potential, strength is also good, plasticity is still very strong, until Ziegler after a year of training, the strength is no problem, that is, a little less experience, but his point is to be able to play every position in the backfield, of course, his best position is fullback, whether it is a left fullback or a right fullback, Ziegler can do very well.

Wan Sheng replaced Ziegler, and the meaning was obvious.

Ziegler came on to replace Leiden Baines, so Baines could move forward to the left wing-back and replace Ribery, so that the 442 formation would be readjusted.

When Derby County raised the substitution card, the whole media, including the fans, were a little surprised, even those laymen know that the end time of the first half is definitely not a good time for substitutions, even if the game is not played well, it should be delayed to the second half, rather than a rush to make a substitution.

"It seems that Wansheng is very unhappy with Ribery's watch," Alfi said.

Sky TV commentator George Woodgate also said, "In the first half, Ribery wasted too many chances, it seems that he was not in good shape today, and he couldn't bear to win. ”

With his words, the big camera pointed to Wan Sheng.

I saw Wan Sheng's face was stern, but it was not much different from usual, and it was difficult to determine what Wan Sheng was thinking by his expression. However, looking at his eyes, I also knew that he was thinking about game-related issues, and this substitution also said a lot of things.

Ribery walked off the field.

The cameras pointed over for the first time, almost all the shots were Ribery, at this time Ribery was sweaty, the dissatisfaction on his face was also obvious, and there was a little stunned, obviously he thought that the coach would change him at this time, and even, Ribery didn't expect it at all. The coach will substitute himself off.

He was still thinking about showing himself well and trying to help the team score goals, and the next moment the team asked to replace him?

He was a little annoyed.

Especially if the substitution is still at this time, what does this mean? Anyone can know that this shows that the coach is extremely dissatisfied with his appearance, otherwise he would never change himself now.

However, when Ribery came off the field, he still hugged Baines and then walked to the bench.

Wan Sheng didn't even look at him, just pointed to the empty seat and shouted. "Look at it!" The displeasure in that tone was unmistakable.

Although Ribery was also very dissatisfied, he was still a little apprehensive.

In normal times, Wan Sheng greeted everyone with a smile, even if he said that things were just strict. But no one in the whole team was not afraid of him, especially when he was very strict, and the majesty was really a little scary, even if it was the 'fierce-looking' Ribery. It's the same as my teammates.

But Ribery pursed his lips and wrote his dissatisfaction on his face.

With the coverage of the outside media, Ribery's fame grew. He feels more or less that he is also a football star, as a famous football star, he naturally has to have face, look at those stars, don't they all have some personalities? Now that he is also a star, in an important match in a European competition, it is naturally very embarrassing to be replaced at such a time, and because of this, Ribery feels that he has lost face, even if he is very worried, he still has to express his anger.

"There are many, many fans watching me right now!"

"If the cousins were as cringe as the young players, the fans who supported me would be disappointed, right?"

"I'm a big star now, and I'm going to write my anger on my face!"

"I'm not just angry at being substituted, I'm angry at the game! I'm angry with the table! ”

“”

A lot of thoughts lingered in his mind, and Ribery looked up and glanced at the cameras pointing in this direction, and the thought in his heart became more determined

Wan Sheng didn't know that Ribery had so many ideas, and he didn't have the heart to think about them so much, so the first half passed quickly, and then it was half-time.

In the locker room, Wan Sheng didn't say a word about Ribery, but only told the players who were going to play what to do in the second half.

Actually, he also knew that Ribery must have some ideas, but so what? If it was Ziegler, he would really have comforted him, Ribery? But they are all 23 years old, and they have experienced so much, and now they are a little famous, but there is a problem? If he can't even pass this level, he really doesn't want to become a star or anything in the future, no matter how strong his strength is, because becoming a star not only requires strength, but also needs to stabilize his heart. Such a player can't play anywhere!

Now Derby County is actually quite good, there is no heavy dà event, even in European competitions, it is difficult to meet heavyweight opponents, if in the European Champions Cup, before every heavy dà match, it will be a media and psychological battle, and do not look at the future Chelsea and Barcelona every time they meet, the media will break the rumors that Ronaldinho is going to transfer to Chelsea?

Not only rumors, but even Chelsea chairman Roman Abramovich also said conclusively that he could offer a sky-high transfer fee and a sky-high contract to buy Ronaldonho, in this case, how about it? Every Ronaldinho watch is quite good!

This is the heart of a world-class superstar!

Looking at the current Ribery seems to be just a little famous, and even the French national team has become carried away without being sure to enter? (To be continued......)
