Chapter 4 The Counterattack Begins Now!
After struggling for 25 minutes, the door of the substitute team finally fell.
Steve and the full-back made continuous two-for-one cooperation on the left side, leaving behind all the wing defenders of the substitute team and the midfielders following him, and then made a beautiful inside cut to the penalty area Before him, a kick made the football draw a rainbow-like arc in mid-air, and shot into the net on the right side of the goal.
1 is better than 0!
Ryan Mason couldn't help but applaud Steve for his brilliant performance.
The members of the substitute team were even more convinced. It seemed that Steve was born to be the best of them, and scoring such a wonderful goal was just his foundation.
Only Chen Xiaoliang was not convinced, his eyes never let go of every frame of Steve's movements, even the swing of the corner of his clothes was firmly in his eyes and remembered in his heart.
After another 15 minutes, the game came to No. 40 minutes.
Ryan Mason turned around and walked to Chen Xiaoliang's side, and patted him on the shoulder.
Chen Xiaoliang understood that it was time for him to play.
"Go up and feel it first, so that you don't have to warm up in the second half."
"Thank you coach!"
Chen Xiaoliang took off his coat and walked to the sidelines.
All the players on and off the field were very surprised. They did not expect that the head coach would replace Chen Xiaoliang at this point in time.
The players of the main team were delighted for a while, thinking that this time the substitute team was sent off, and the next game would definitely be better.
And the substitute team was dejected, they were already pinned down in the halfcourt, and they were replaced by Chen Xiaoliang, who knew nothing, how could they play this ball...
However, Ryan Mason also has his own calculations in mind.
Now that I saw Mourinho coming to the training ground in person, I should let my proud disciple Steve perform well. If he can enter the first team one day earlier, even if he is a substitute in a tasteless game like the League Cup, it is far better. In the U18 league, it can help Steve increase the ball quickly.
At the same time, at 40 minutes into the game, it was the time when the physical strength of the first half was close to the bottom. At this time, replacing Chen Xiaoliang could not only allow him to play for a while, but also relieve Steve's pressure, allowing him to save energy for the second half.
Steve on the field naturally understood all of this. He watched Chen Xiaoliang run to his side, and sneered: "Hey! Chen! I'll throw my legs upside down later, don't cry and go home, haha !"
Chen Xiaoliang gave him a gloomy look, and Steve immediately shut up with his murderous look.
The game continues!
Except for Ryan Mason, everyone else was stunned in astonishment. They actually saw Chen Xiaoliang following Steve closely like a piece of brown sugar.
Whether it is attacking or defending, with or without the ball, wherever Steve goes, Chen Xiaoliang immediately follows him.
What kind of kick is this? !
And a player whose registered position is a forward, how can he play defense!
The players couldn't help looking at Ryan Mason, but they saw him with a calm and expressionless face.
"Is it the coach's special arrangement? Intensive training for Steve?"
"It doesn't matter...why think so much, how could Chen Xiaoliang be able to guard against Steve!"
Chen Xiaoliang also understands that although his steal value is full, his physical fitness is still so mediocre. Compared with Steve, who has received professional training since childhood, there is still a clear gap.
But fortunately, since he had just entered the field, he had the upper hand in physical strength, so he was able to follow him every step of the way.
Five minutes passed quickly, and without any added time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
The two teams returned to the bench respectively. Ryan Mason came to the side of the bench and arranged defensive counterattacks for the players-this is currently the most suitable style of play for this team. In terms of technical ability and physical fitness If they are not as good as the main team, attacking blindly will only cause more defensive loopholes.
But for the main team, it was Steve who was talking endlessly with the players.
"Listen, keep pressing in the second half! Get the ball to me more."
"Okay! Steve, waiting for your assist, how can we win only one?"
The players chimed in.
"Why did the coach let that kid from the Red Country stare at you?"
one player asked.
Another player elbowed the questioning player and then winked across the court.
Everyone looked over and couldn't help but change their faces!
"Why is he here?!"
"No wonder, the coach wants Steve to perform well!"
The corner of Steve's mouth couldn't help but rise, but he said: "We must perform well, and score at least three more goals in the second half, and we must score beautifully!"
"it is good!"
Ryan Mason, who was arranging tactics on the other side, heard the shouts of the main force, knew what was going on in his heart, and shook his head involuntarily.
The second half begins!
The main team kicks off!
Starting from the ball in the middle circle, the players of the main team pressed forward wave after wave like a tide, constantly using short passes to cooperate to compress the space of the substitute team, and pushed the formation of the substitute team back to the vicinity of the penalty area again.
In order to maintain possession, the main team's four defenders have passed the half-court, and the two full-backs are even more like wingers, frequently changing positions with the full-backs, cutting inside, and attracting defenders to leave their defensive positions.
Watching this scene, Ryan Mason couldn't restrain his relief and pride. After all, he trained this team with his own hands. Such a tacit and wonderful cooperation also reflects the tactical quality of a youth training coach.
Only one thing was the same as the last 5 minutes of the first half, that is, Chen Xiaoliang still followed Steve closely, following him like a shadow, never leaving.
Chen Xiaoliang has not forgotten the importance of this game. The process of the game can determine his player career, and the result of the game can also determine whether he can complete the tasks arranged by the system.
After several passes, the ball arrived at Steve’s feet. The players of the main team saw Steve holding the ball and approached the opponent’s penalty area at the same time. After all, he might pass a threatening ball at any time, so everyone naturally couldn’t let go of the opportunity. .
Steve didn't pay attention to Chen Xiaoliang at all. After more than two months of joint training, he already knew how much the boy from the Red Country in front of him weighed. Even the youngest player in the team was much stronger than him.
He took a few steps sideways, carefully observing his teammates' running, and suddenly found an open space in the penalty area, and was about to kick a pass, but found that he had kicked an empty space!
Looking down, the ball is gone!
what the hell! ?
At this time, Chen Xiaoliang had already run behind him with the ball.
"Damn it, kid!"
The fleeting passing space was inexplicably destroyed, and he hadn't seen what was going on, Steve was furious, strode back and tackled Chen Xiaoliang with a dribble.
"Beep!"
The referee whistles, Steve fouls!
The referee took out a yellow card!
Free kick for the substitute team!
"Damn it! Did I read it right?!"
"That kid actually broke Steve's ball in an instant?!"
"Steve is clearly on top! That tackle was for revenge!"
The players on the bench whispered.
Ryan Mason was also surprised.He originally thought that Chen Xiaoliang's words were just a moment of anger, thinking that the last game was over, and he would just satisfy the wish of this hard-working kid from the Red Country, but he didn't expect that he was serious!Really broke a ball for him!Cut off both simply and decisively!
"Steve!" Ryan Mason yelled from the sidelines, and seeing Steve look back at him, he pointed to his temple with his finger.
This is a warning to him to calm down.
Although Steve was angry, he immediately realized that he was impulsive, because this ball was not just a team training, but an important game that might change his life!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help taking a peek at Mourinho, and seeing that he seemed to be looking at him, he couldn't help feeling nervous and excited!
