Chapter 50: The Scorpion Swings Its Tail
Nottingham Forest's players gathered around the linesman to ask for an explanation.
Head coach Pierce also negotiated with the fourth official on the sidelines for the first time, and the ball must be offside.
The referee also trotted over and asked the linesman about the situation.
The linesman said very decisively that Rossi was not offside in this goal.
The referee blows the whistle and points his right hand to the center circle to signal that the goal is valid.
On the big screen in the stadium, the score became 1:1.
[The goal is valid, the goal is valid, Bournemouth equalised.] γ
[Rowe avoided the opponent's offside trap and scored the ball, excellent reaction and forward awareness.] γ
[From the first round of games, Rowe has shown an efficient scoring rate, and his ability to run without the ball and pull up the front line can also create opportunities for his teammates. γ
[This is a player who plays with his brain. γ
The narrator did not hesitate to give praise.
Not long after the start of the second half, Bournemouth relied on Rossi to equalise and the two sides returned to the same running line.
Nottingham Forest's substitution, with Jack Hunt coming on for Fox, was a set-up change at left wing-back.
Bournemouth followed the tactics laid out by the manager at half-time, and the midfield four also used diamond positions to strengthen the attacking advantage in the middle.
Harry Aat played with the ball in midfield and the manager gave him more opportunities to get on the ball.
After the opponent was tied by the score, central midfielders Reid and Hunt also strengthened their defensive coverage and stabilized the midfield.
Harry Art's lack of possession made it difficult for him to take advantage of the dangerous ball after getting rid of it in a dense defence, and more often than not, he directed the ball to the sides.
However, the attacking space on the wing is squeezed by the opponent, and it is difficult to form a breakthrough.
Even if there is a breakthrough, the quality of the cross is not satisfactory.
After a long attack, the Bournemouth team's upper pressure made the back air defenses weak, and in a counterattack, the Nottingham Forest team sent a three-way salvo, Reid's diagonal long pass, directly penetrating the opponent's left gap.
Right wing-back Chris Burke drove in long distances and slotted the ball across the middle of the pitch before a defender stepped forward to block it.
Central midfielder Cohen, after winning the ball in the middle, glanced up, took the ball with his right foot, and passed to the left baseline.
Freshly introduced full-back Jack Hunt cut in at high speed under the cover of his team-mates and swept the ball out of the line as it swept in front of goal.
The entire offensive line is clear, without a trace of mud and water.
A long pass from Nottingham Forest was diverted and hit the opponent's weak side in an instant, and Elfik, Bournemouth's right central defender, hurriedly stepped forward to defend.
Because the opponent's center forward, Freteja, has rushed to the landing point of the ball.
Almost at the same time, the two jumped at the same time, competing for the landing spot.
But Frethea, who was outflanked in the middle, took a step faster and grabbed the landing spot.
While jumping, tilt your head back slightly, concentrate all the sprint force on your head, and tighten your core.
Bang!
Fretea, who jumped high, hit the goalkeeper in the opposite direction with a powerful header.
Kemp had already moved ahead of time to block the near corner, but he didn't know that the opponent was actually pushing in the opposite direction to him.
The advantage that the team has just built up cannot be interrupted like this.
Camp didn't have time to make physical adjustments, and his left hand subconsciously went up.
Syllable!
Kemp's three fingers touched the ball, and although it could not prevent the ball from continuing to fly, the ball was affected by the resistance, and the flight trajectory was changed.
While!
The ball hit the post and bounced off.
Fretya thought it was inevitable, but when he heard the "dang", he knelt directly on the turf, holding his head in his hands, looking incredulous.
The fans all stood up and let out a low roar.
Full-back Daniels cleared the ball with a big kick and the fans were about to applaud when their eyes widened at the sight before them.
The ball landed unbiased at the feet of Harry Art.
When he looked up, Wilson, Rossi, and Kermogant were already running forward.
Harry, who had no defenders around him, adjusted his body and slammed his right foot into the bottom of the ball.
Bang!
The ball arced beautifully and flew to the left rib of the opponent.
Here, full-back Osborne didn't get back in place, and worse, full-back Jack Hunt stepped in an assist and hasn't come back yet.
Golden opportunity.
Eddie Howe pointed his finger at the opponent's goal and shouted at the player, "Counterattack, counterattack!" β
Taking advantage of the opponent's lack of return to the defense is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Wilson's speed is a breeze to eat raw left centre-back.
However, the opponent knows that he does not have an advantage in speed, so he retreats and observes the attacker's movements.
Wilson began to slow down, then suddenly stepped up with his left foot, shifting his entire center of gravity to the left.
This feint to the left took Mancian's center of gravity away, and almost at the same time, Wilson's right foot moved the ball sideways, and the center of gravity shifted to the right at the same time, flashing over.
Mancien turned to chase back, but he was slow, slow, always half a body behind, and had lost his mark on Wilson.
Hobbs, another central defender, had no choice but to go around in front of Rossi and cut off the pass.
Wilson swooped down the flanks and Mancien struggled to chase back, making small movements that interfered with Wilson's rhythm with the ball.
Wilson, who has been running for 70 minutes, is also in a physical crisis, and he can't guarantee that he won't be caught up by his opponent when he cuts inside.
All he had to do now was sprint forward, create a little more space, and pass the ball out.
Bang!
As he approached the baseline, Wilson had no stamina to get out of the defense and barely passed the ball.
The quality of the cross was not good, Wilson was afraid that the ball would fall in front of the goal and be blocked by the goalkeeper, and the arc of the pass was very large, and it was passed behind the ball player who cut forward.
In order to get rid of the defense, Rossi took advantage of the pause to run, went around in front of the defender, and sprinted with all his might.
But when he saw the ball flying in mid-air, he knew he had run past.
At this time, even if you brake suddenly, the ball will fall behind you, and you will not be able to catch the ball at all, let alone shoot.
Hobbs, the guard who was responsible for marking Rossi, was confused by Rossi's erratic movement at the beginning and was robbed of the front point.
If the ball is in front of goal, then Rossi can head the ball undisturbed.
But coincidentally, this pass foot passed to the back point, and it actually came to his eyes.
Hobbes was overjoyed and landed behind Rossi, giving him plenty of time to adjust, slowing down, turning his body sideways, swinging his right foot up, ready to kick the ball away.
Rossi couldn't let the ball get cleared even if he couldn't shoot.
The ball is behind you, with your own feet, it is impossible to turn back and shoot. Then, just use the heel.
Just in the middle of this thought, the highlight moment of "Scorpion Tail Swing" exploded in his mind, and a whimsical idea passed through Rossi's mind.
Rossi took a step with his left foot and stood on one foot, and this forward inertia did not allow him to stand firmly, but instead caused his whole body to pounce forward.
Haha, this kid wanted to brake, but he tripped over himself.
Hobbs could see clearly behind him, couldn't help laughing, seeing that the ball was about to fly, judging the timing of the landing, he kicked it with his right foot vigorously.
However, Rosie, who pounced forward, swung his right foot high and upward.
And, unbiasedly, touching the ball.
The ball, which was supposed to be flying in front of goal, changed its path and flew towards the far post of the goal.
Hobbs gasped as he watched the ball suddenly go up, and not only did he fail to kick it with his right foot, but instead let the ball fly in front of him.
The goalkeeper didn't react either, because his view was completely blocked by the two of them, and he didn't even know where the ball was.
When the ball reappeared in his field of vision, it had already flown into the net.
The stadium was boiling, and cheers soared into the sky.
γGOALοΌοΌοΌοΌ The ball went in. γ
[Oh no, just when everyone thought that this ball was impossible to catch, Luo not only caught it, but also hit the ball with such an imaginative heel. γ
[This goal is definitely the best goal of the week.] γ
[Let's congratulate Rowe, congratulations to Bournemouth, overtaking the score. γ
