Chapter 54 Greeting the "Bhatty Goal" with the World Wave
"Dear Imabari FC fans, welcome to Dream Stadium. Today is the first home game of the new season for Imabari FC, and the game is about to start, so let me see your enthusiasm......"
The 8,300 seats in the stands were all blue, and the occasional white figure was soon swallowed up by the blue. The home fans responded to the live DJ with the most fervent emotion, and all the anticipation turned into cheers and applause when they walked into the stadium for the first time in the third round of the season.
Not only inside the stadium, but also in the square outside the Dream Stadium, thousands of fans who failed to grab tickets gathered at the moment, wearing the team's blue home jersey and waving scarves to cheer for the home team.
Imabari FC's tickets sold very well this season, especially with the 8-0 win in the first round, those season tickets that were to be sold in previous years were sold out, and many fans who couldn't get tickets even called to ask for extra seats at the stadium.
It can be said that Imabari FC is definitely the Japanese team with the highest attendance this year, and it is not bad at all compared to the giants of the J1 League. Of course, this is also because the Dream Stadium only has 8,300 seats, which in itself is not much comparable.
Imabari FC currently leads the standings with six points and nine goal difference from two away games, followed by Yokohama Sports, Wan Laure and Sanuki Katamami with six points, but they are in second to fourth place due to goal difference.
Judging from the ranking of the standings, the strength and weakness of this season's JFL league are obvious, in addition to the 8:0 played by Imabari FC in the first round in the first round, Yokohama Sports also played 7:2, and Wan Lauret also played a big score of 5:1.
Imabari FC's opponent today is a bit special, he is not a football club in the traditional sense, but more like a hobby club, yes, just like the kind of club that recruits new people when new students enter the poster.
The University of Tsukuba is a well-known research-oriented national university in Japan, a world-class university, and has produced three Nobel Prize winners. However, compared to the academic status, football is also another famous business card of the University of Tsukuba, the absolute hegemon of the Japanese University League, the champion of the World University Football Championship, and more than 100 international players for the Japanese national team at all levels.
It can be said that the University of Tsukuba is one of the most successful examples of the 100-year plan of Japanese football, and it is also one of the most desirable universities for Japanese high school students.
Lin Hong also had a longing for Jingcheng University of Technology in China, which is also a college team that made it to the professional league ahead of the University of Tsukuba. And it's not easy for them to be able to get a foothold in the professional league without foreign help. It's just a pity that Lin Hong studied average before, and he didn't have the conditions to go to university, so Beijing Institute of Technology can only be his unattainable dream.
Of course, if you want to compare university football teams, the most successful is definitely Ecuador's Universidad de Sport de Quito, a team that originally consisted of students and teachers, and no one knew that they would become the dominant players in Ecuador's professional league, and they also won the Copa Libertadores.
However, with the reform of the Universitario de Quito sports team, they have moved away from a purely collegiate team and have really embarked on the path of professionalism.
There are not many university teams like Gyeongseong Institute of Technology and University of Tsukuba that are purely student-oriented and can maintain a high standard.
Once the game began, FC Imabari quickly took control of the situation on the field, especially Mashki, who started the game, and his interception and tackling ability was very strong, and the young midfielder of the University of Tsukuba looked too immature in front of him.
The middle lane couldn't get through, so the University of Tsukuba wanted to take two side roads, but they soon found that the two side lanes of Imabari FC were not smooth either.
After ten minutes of trying, the University of Tsukuba chose to retreat in an all-out way, while Imabari FC launched wave after wave of offensives.
Today is the last game of the "more the merrier" mission, Lin Hong still has a ball task, so he was very active in the front court after the opening, and there was a sweeping shot in the penalty area in less than 5 minutes of the opening game, but unfortunately the football was out of the goal and failed to form a threat.
The University of Tsukuba obviously knows Lin Hong's threat, so they are very attentive to his defense, usually when Lin Hong has the ball, two or three people use misplaced space defense to compress Lin Hong's breakthrough space and passing line to the maximum.
Lin Hong knows that impatience is useless, the opponent's strength is not strong, he still has time, as long as he actively runs the position, the opportunity can always run out.
Last night, Lin Hong called up the entire back line of the University of Tsukuba in the junior training ground, and spent an hour all of his time simulating sparring, from one-on-one to one-on-two, and even one-on-four.
This was the first time Lin Hong compared the real and virtual primary training grounds, and he found that the realism was very high, and the technical characteristics of the defenders at the University of Tsukuba were the same as those performed in the primary training grounds. However, simulated confrontation can only be simulated, and the real-life University of Tsukuba players are more subjective, they will take the initiative to cooperate with the midfield defense, and the ability to assist the defense is also stronger.
However, for Lin Hong, it is already very unnatural to know the technical characteristics of the other party in advance.
In the face of the University of Tsukuba's co-defense, Lin Hong's connection with his midfield teammates was almost severed. He had to expand his range of motion, so he was more aggressive in his movement and often swapped places with Daisuke Yoshii on the left, which made it particularly awkward for the players who were marking him to not know whether to continue or not, as that would disrupt their already dangerous defence.
I have to admit that the defense of the University of Tsukuba is indeed very good, especially their running is very active, which greatly compensates for the gap in strength.
Of course, this kind of crazy defense will definitely not last long, and it will be very difficult in the second half.
But Lin Hong didn't want to wait until the second half to look for opportunities to score, that would be too risky, if there was any accident, or if he failed to score in the second half, then his intestines would be repentant.
Lin Hong has learned a lot in the past two months, but there is one thing that he was extremely good at before he won the ball king system, that is, running, which was also very important to Takeshi Okada and Shota Haruzama and others at the beginning.
Today's Lin Hong has been trained by Asia's top coaching team, and thanks to the assistance of the ball king system, his running ability is definitely a professional level.
In the 26th minute of the first half, Imabari FC's continuous attacks were frustrated, and Mashki deliberately pressed the ball for a few seconds after taking the ball, and also pressed down with both hands to signal his teammates to control the tempo.
The football passed to the feet of Watanabe Kobayashi on the right, and Lin Hong immediately returned from the middle to the familiar right, and he ran back along the sideline, raising his hand to ask for the ball.
University of Tsukuba defender Momoki Hayashiyama followed up immediately, but his reaction was still a step late, and when he chased after Lin Hong, Watanabe Kobayashi's pass had been steadily stopped by Lin Hong.
Guarding Lin Hong's back and not letting him turn around was the response that Lin Shan Taomu thought of, but Lin Hong was waiting for this moment. Without waiting for Lin Shan Taomu to get close, Lin Hong suddenly turned the ball to the right, and the football rolled quickly along the right side of Lin Shan Taomu, he wanted to stick to Lin Hong so he didn't stop steadily, and the football didn't react at all when it rolled over.
Lin Hong's turn was also completed in an instant, and without waiting for Lin Shan Taomu to pull and foul, he quickly took the ball and cut in.
Everything happened in the light of light, so fast!
The rest of the defenders didn't expect Lin Hong's turn and pass to be completed almost at the same time, and they were not able to organize a zone defense.
The fans at the scene also reacted to Lin Hong's sudden inward cut, and the stadium became silent, and everyone was looking forward to what Lin Hong would bring.
A central defender in front of the penalty area saw Lin Hong hurriedly attack to block, seeing this scene Lin Hong was about to cut into the penalty area to the ribs, the central defender was really fooled to make a blocking action, but Lin Hong just shook a shot, and a croquette easily shook the opponent and continued to cut the ball horizontally into the middle.
After connecting the two, Lin Hong cut inside with the ball to the top of the arc of the penalty area, and he originally wanted to make a one-two cooperation with Daisuke Yoshii, who came up to respond, to continue to develop towards the penalty area, but he keenly found that the other central defender who was supposed to continue to move forward had retreated too deep and had reached the penalty spot.
may have discovered this huge vacancy, and the central defender quickly stepped forward to make up for his mistake, but where would Lin Hong let this unexpected vacancy be missed in vain.
Although the football is twenty meters away from the goal at the moment, Lin Hong rarely uses long-range shots to make the final blow, but that does not mean that he does not have the ability to shoot from a distance. On the contrary, since he learned that he had the opportunity to get the skill of batty gol, Lin Hong has practiced long-range shooting many times, both in real training and in the primary training ground, and his current strength has improved greatly, so he is not false in long-range shooting.
Adjust the ball slightly with his right foot, and then Lin Hong talked about his right foot and directly came to a blast.
Because everyone in the stadium was quietly expecting, the loud "bang" was transmitted far and wide, and the football was like a blurred white shadow across all the defenders and the goalkeeper's outstretched left hand, showing a straight line and flying into the goal!
"The ball is in, the ball is in......"
"Lin Hong has scored a world wave!"
In the 27th minute of the first half, Lin Hong received the ball on the side and fired a long shot after two people cut inside, 1:0, and he took the lead for Imabari FC.
He has scored in three consecutive games, and his nine goals in three games not only broke the record of Imabari FC, but also ranked first in the JFL league scorer list this season......
Although the voice of the live DJ was high-pitched and passionate, the whole Dream Stadium was already boiling inside and outside, no one heard what the DJ said, everyone was hugging and yelling at each other, Imabari FC's first home goal of the season finally came, and it was such a kick in the world. The fans waved to Lin Hong excitedly and shouted "Lin Hong, Lin Hong, Lin Hong......"
Lin Hong's shot just now felt very good, and the moment he kicked it he knew it was there, he quickly turned and rushed to the east with his arms outstretched towards the die-hard fan stands, he enjoyed the cheers pouring down from the home fans' stands.
Rather than scoring goals and getting cheers from fans, Lin Hong finally completed the task of 9 goals in 3 games, and his long-coveted "Batty Gol" finally arrived.
There is no better way to greet "Batti Gol" with a world wave.
The last grid of the nine-square grid was lit up, and Lin Hong was almost super excited, because the task progress column of "The More the Merrier" displayed: 9/9. After the task was completed, the huge image of Barty turned into a point of light like fine sand, and merged into Lin Hong's thoughts.
Then countless information and technical details about "Bhatty's goal" were imprinted into Lin Hong's mind, and it felt like he had mastered this skill in his previous life, but he had only suddenly awakened now.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the 'The More the Merrier' quest and obtaining the superstar Batistuta fame stunt 'Batti goal', current proficiency: 25%."
