Chapter 15: Only five minutes of playing time
After Montpellier shrunk their squad, the situation improved slightly.
At the cost of giving up the attack, the risk of being scored is reduced.
At the same time, I used this time to regain a little physical strength.
Easter, on the other hand, dominated the space and possession, shooting one after another.
But with Montpellier's dense defence, the number of shots that were really threatening decreased rather than increased.
Seventy minutes into the game, the Montpellier players, who had been on the defensive, gradually regained their strength.
Under the leadership of captain Nordin, they also slowly began to counterattack.
The Easter players, who had been unable to attack for a long time, began to go numb mentally and slowed down the pace of attacking.
Under the elimination of each other's strengths, the two teams that originally had a lot of differences in strength began to play back and forth.
A couple of shots were taken from both sides, but none of them were converted into goals.
Obviously, everyone can see that the situation has entered a stalemate.
Unless there is a talented player who can turn the tide and come on to change the score.
Otherwise, it will be difficult for both sides to score.
Montpellier's first-team coach Alfred frowned.
I pushed off a lot of important schedules and came here to watch Chen Ting's game.
Will let himself see this?
Haven't seen Chen Ting play for 70 minutes?
No matter how good the temper is, I can't bear it.
Alfred got up from his chair and walked over to Will.
said in a deep voice: "Change Chen Ting to play!" ”
Will swallowed and whispered, "This...... Top dog...... It's not time yet......"
Weir's plan was to send Chen Ting on the court when there were two or three minutes left in the game.
Although this will cause Alfred's dissatisfaction, it can leave Chen Ting to the greatest extent.
As long as Chen Ting stays, his hope of being promoted will be greatly increased, and when the time comes, he will be promoted and his salary will be raised......
While still immersed in his own fantasies, Vir heard Alfred's stern rebuke again.
"I'm not giving you any more advice! It's the order for you! Immediately change Chen Ting to play! ”
Will sighed slightly, knowing that he couldn't drag it out anymore.
Turned to look at the bench.
"Chen Ting, you go to warm up and play in eighty-five minutes."
"What!" Alfred roared, "You're going to let him go for five minutes?" ”
Will had a little weakness on his face, but he didn't change his decision.
Chen Ting didn't care, and came to the side of the court to do warm-up movements.
In his opinion, as long as he can play, it would be fine.
Don't be afraid of short time, the shorter the better.
In this way, you can reflect your own value more.
Alfred snorted coldly and returned to his chair, leaving only a faint word for Will.
"If I can't see what I want to see, get ready to leave Montpellier!"
His heart was filled with resentment towards Will.
This old guy has wasted so much of his time and openly questioned his decision.
It's time to bang, knock, knock.
Will's heart sank, and he realized that he was in trouble.
But he has no intention of regretting the decision that has been made.
……
The clock was fast approaching eighty-five minutes.
Seeing that Chen Ting was almost warmed up, Nordin immediately kicked the ball out of bounds.
He hoped that Chen Ting would come up soon, and maybe he could break the deadlock.
The fourth official held up the substitution card.
Ellis was slightly disappointed to see his number appear on the substitution card.
The manager of the first team was standing on the sidelines, what a great opportunity, but he was about to be replaced.
But he didn't complain, and still made a simple hug with Chen Ting.
"Brother, I don't have a chance to be favored by the first team, you have to come on!"
Chen Ting nodded slightly.
This teammate is still good.
After Chen Ting came on the court, there were five minutes left before the end of the game.
The players in Montpellier are anxious.
Time is running out and they want to equalise.
At this time, East, who was on the opposite side, was no longer in a hurry to attack and focused more on defense.
This is a common strategy on the football field.
Towards the end of the game, the leading side will often choose to stall for time and maintain the score until the end.
So as to win the three points safely.
In this way, it will be more difficult for Montpellier to equalise again.
Nordin and Muller glanced at each other, both understanding what the other meant.
Since he couldn't score a goal, he put his hope on Chen Ting, who had just come on the field.
"Chen, you go to the front, we'll pass the ball to you!"
Chen Ting was not polite, inserted into the East half, and came to the activity area that he is good at.
As soon as he arrived, East sent a tall, strong old black to defend closely.
His name is Marcus.
"Hey! Yellow-skinned monkey, can you play football with this body? ”
"Be careful, don't touch me, my elbow can blow your head off."
Chen Ting was silent, his eyes calm.
Of course, he knew that this was the other side's psychological tactic.
In football, it's all about giving your full attention to every opportunity.
Emotional and psychological fluctuations often cause an otherwise good player to perform poorly.
The old black Marcus kept talking trash talk, but he didn't stop moving at his feet, seriously defending Chen Ting.
Don't give him a chance to catch the ball.
In this case, it was also difficult for the other Montpellier players to get the ball through.
None of them dared to take risks, after all, time was running out, and every loss of possession was a huge disaster.
Chen Ting's thinking turned, and he quickly found a way to deal with it.
Although this old black is very strong and blocks his passing route, his movements are not flexible.
Chen Ting gave full play to his light physical advantage and kept wandering around the old dark Marcus.
Even if there were no teammates nearby, he kept running around.
It didn't take long for Marcus to get annoyed.
"Yellow-skinned monkey! Stop struggling! With me, you won't touch the ball. ”
At the moment when he spoke, Chen Ting ran behind him.
As soon as Lao Hei turned around, he found that Chen Ting had suddenly run back again.
At the same time, he stretched out his hand.
"Captain, pass!"
Notting, who was holding the ball, saw that Chen Ting got rid of Lao Hei, and hurriedly raised his foot and passed the ball to Chen Ting.
After being deceived, Marcus was very angry and hurriedly chased back.
Two other Easter players also came to help.
Chen Ting doesn't have many opportunities, and if he hesitates a little, he will face the siege of three people.
Chen Ting, who had no choice, turned around decisively and shot directly.
"Bang!"
The football was hit by a huge force and made a dull sound.
Like an arrow from the string, it flies towards the goal.
The Montpellier players saw the shot and showed anticipation.
Alfred, in the dugout, stood up, his eyes fixed on the soccer ball in the air.
Will frowned slightly.
His mood at the moment is very complicated.
I hope that this goal can be scored to help my team equalize.
I hope not to enter, so as not to let Alfred take Chen Ting.
