Chapter 446 The new goalkeeper is very calm
In the dressing room of the Spanish team, there were joyous songs and laughter. After all, few people could encounter such a strange match. In the first half, the opponent's goalkeeper sent a heavy gift of two points, which made people feel a little embarrassed.
Li Mingyu and Ferran Torres were sitting together. Ferran Torres was still imitating Henderson's clumsy moves, which made everyone laugh out loud.
Li Mingyu also shook his head and laughed.
Henderson's performance today is enough to make him England's backer.
Originally, Li Mingyu still had a sense of guilt towards the England team, but with Henderson, this sense of guilt turned into gratitude to Henderson.
This Henderson is such a nice guy!
As for the other locker room, it was as dead silent as a cemetery.
Henderson sat in front of his wardrobe, holding his head in his hands, not daring to look up.
The other players also had helpless expressions, and the disappointment in their eyes was self-evident.
Head coach Southgate opened the door and walked in. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart.
He had experienced this feeling before.
In the 1996 European Cup, which was full of fairy tales, the England team encountered the German team in the semi-finals.
The two teams ultimately need to decide the winner through a penalty shootout.
The free throw players of the first six rounds of the two teams all scored the football.
England's seventh player to play was Southgate.
As a result, Southgate's penalty was saved by German goalkeeper Kopke, and the England team was eliminated.
The German team that entered the final was defeated by the Danish team 2-0 without any resistance, fulfilling Denmark and creating a fairy tale.
Southgate will never forget the moment he felt when he missed the penalty.
Especially seeing the Danish team defeating the German team made public opinion push his name to the highest point.
If Southgate hadn't missed the penalty, would the England team have won the 1996 European Cup?
There will never be an answer to this question, but it is an eternal pain in Southgate's heart.
Looking at Henderson, who was desperate to the extreme, Southgate knew that the opponent's psychological defense had been penetrated. In the second half, it might be difficult to have the courage to stand in front of the goal.
But as a coach, he still walked over and patted Henderson on the shoulder. Looking at Henderson who raised his head blankly, Southgate's heart couldn't help but tugged.
What a pair of eyes!
Empty, helpless, puzzled, fearful...
Southgate said softly, "You should not play in the second half, and take a good rest in the locker room!"
Hearing this sentence, Henderson's eyes became more lively, a trace of embarrassment and relief flashed in his eyes, a wry smile appeared on his face, he nodded, and did not speak.
Southgate nodded and said, "In the second half, Johnstone played."
It can be clearly seen that the expressions on everyone's faces have become much more relaxed.
Although I don't want to admit it, Henderson has no reason to be trusted by everyone.
Although Johnstone's strength is open to question, it's still better than leaving a time bomb in front of the goal!
Outside, on the edge of the pitch, Johnstone was warming up with some of the substitutes in his goalkeeper's jersey.
After the game, coach Southgate signaled him to stay on the field and start warming up, ready to play at any time in the second half.
Although he has been called into the national team for three consecutive major competitions, he did not get 1 minute of game time.
The goalkeeper position is very different from other positions.
If the main goalkeeper plays too well, then the goalkeeper in this country will be very desperate, because they will never get playing time.
Just like the Italian team, Buffon, the eternal football player, has killed all the outstanding Italian goalkeepers.
Although he had to face the powerful Spanish team, this aroused Johnstone's fighting spirit even more.
He is not young this year either. At the age of 31, he is now playing for the Premier League team West Bromwich Albion as the team's main goalkeeper.
While warming up, Johnstone couldn't help but feel agitated. If he can perform well in the second half, maybe he will be the main goalkeeper of the England national team in the future.
After Henderson experienced such a horrible mistake, it is estimated that even if there is no problem with his mentality, he may not be able to recover his bravery when he returns to Manchester United.
Sure enough, at the beginning of the second half, the England team began to make substitutions and adjustments. Johnstone replaced Henderson and Henderson didn't even come out of the locker room.
For this substitution, the England fans responded with warm applause.
The two mistakes in the first half also made these fans who came from afar very depressed.
During the half-time break, I listened to the singing and dancing of the Spanish fans opposite, and they felt depressed and inhumane.
The referee blew his whistle, and the second half of the game began.
The Spanish team first launched the attack.
Li Mingyu looked at the goalkeeper who had just been replaced by the opponent, looking a little eager to try.
Generally speaking, the goalkeeper who has just entered the field is very concentrated, but, strangely, at this time, it is often the most likely to score goals.
So, Li Mingyu, who was standing outside the center circle, received Moreno's return pass and watched the players from both sides step into the opponent's half. In the shocked eyes of everyone, Li Mingyu directly shot a super long-range lob towards the England team's goal.
Seeing this scene, the Spanish team's offensive players also stopped and looked at England's substitute goalkeeper Johnstone.
The England players also stopped and looked at their goalkeeper.
All eyes were on Johnstone.
At this time, Johnstone seemed to feel that all eyes were on him, and suddenly felt that the blood was surging upwards.
He also saw Li Mingyu's lob shot. When the football started to fall from the highest point, he quickly judged that the ball was weak and should land at the front of the penalty area.
Johnstone also took two steps forward, intending to hold the football directly in his arms when it bounced up.
After Johnstone connected the ball, he had thought about all the actions he needed to make.
You must hold the ball with one hand with no expression on your face, and then make a gesture with your right hand to let your teammates press forward, and observe the situation in the frontcourt. If there is no chance, then you will hand the ball to the full back and let him advance slowly.
That's it, you must show an air of grandeur, and you can't let others look down on you.
Sure enough, his judgment was correct. Li Mingyu's shot was indeed a little too weak. When it landed, it hit the penalty area line directly!
