Chapter 28 Advancement

Facing Northampton's second penalty kicker, Ben Foster was unusually calm and didn't make a save in advance, but his opponent just took out a spoon-like penalty kick, which he threw right in the face.

The moment he saved the penalty, Ben Foster clenched his fists in front of his chest and roared twice with a ferocious expression, as if he was venting his emotions.

Notts County's shoulder-shouldered players were also excited, hugging each other and celebrating as if they had won a penalty shootout.

Villa, who had just missed the penalty kick, finally raised his head that he had been afraid to raise. If the team was eliminated from the League Cup because of the penalty he missed, then he would really become Notts County. The sinner, fortunately, Ben Foster is strong, and the two sides are back on the same starting line.

David has made up his mind, and he must ask Ben Foster Health Care to express his gratitude.

Next, the players from both sides were very calm and scored consecutive penalty kicks. The penalty kick score between the two sides was 3:3, and there was one player left in each.

The last player to play in Northampton seemed a little nervous. When he set the ball and stepped back, his foot slipped, and he stumbled and almost didn't fall. You know, this is walking on flat ground.

Seeing this almost comical scene, Leff's heart was hot, and he seemed to have the idea of ​​winning.

The eyes of the entire court were focused on the two players, one offense, one defense, and the other, and the fate of the two teams would be decided by them.

Ben Foster, who had just saved a penalty kick, once again impressed everyone. This time he accurately judged the opponent's penalty kick, and a side kick saved the opponent's low-quality penalty kick to the bottom line.

The audience was silent. The moment he got up after saving the penalty kick, Ben Foster took off his gloves fiercely, and threw them into the sky.

The players of Notts County wanted to rush over and hug Ben Foster fiercely, but the penalty shootout was not over yet, and everyone could only hold back their excitement and wait for the last player to take a free throw.

What is the savior? Today, Ben Foster gave everyone the most accurate interpretation, that is, after saving the opponent's penalty kick, then the penalty kick is scored.

Coincidentally, the fifth penalty taker for Notts County was Ben Foster.

This is not surprising, although goalkeepers take penalties in football, although it is not common, it is definitely not uncommon, especially in penalty shootouts.

As a goalkeeper, Ben Foster may have a stronger psychological grasp of goalkeepers. As long as his feet are not stinky, it is not unexpected for him to take penalties.

Putting the ball on the penalty spot with a calm expression, Ben Foster switched back, then sprinted and slammed the ball hard.

The eyes of the audience moved with the ball, and Ben Foster's penalty kick with a vigorous volley made everyone stunned.

Everyone knows that the greater the strength, the less likely the directional control will be. When taking a penalty kick, the pursuit of the angle is more of the pursuit, rather than the pursuit of speed.

But Ben Foster seemed daring, and as it turned out, he succeeded.

The half-high ball was originally the easiest for the goalkeeper to save, but due to the speed, the opponent's goalkeeper had no time to respond in time. Although the save action had been made, he could only watch the ball in despair.

This time, the Notts County players didn't need to hold back their excitement anymore, they rushed to Ben Foster together, pressing him hard, and the players on the bench rushed into the field excitedly, Joined the ranks of stacked Arhats.

David wanted to rush in and join in the celebration of the victory, but seeing the calm performance of Love next to him, he gave up the idea.

The Northampton players left the field in disappointment, but several players took the initiative to exchange jerseys with players from Notts County. This was the first time that Notts County players were treated like stars.

David couldn't help but smile,

These Northampton players have vision, or are very lucky. You must know that the players in Notts County will be famous football stars in the future, even superstars, but far from the current League Two. can be limited.

After winning the first round of the League Cup, both Loew and David breathed a sigh of relief. In the most difficult stage of the team, being able to not be eliminated is really worth celebrating.

After returning to the club, the team did not have a holiday the next day, because the third round of the League Two will be ushered in at the weekend. This will be the third game of Notts County in seven days, which is the legendary Three games a week.

This intensive schedule makes David complain, but he also knows the situation in English football. There are 24 teams in the League Two, and 46 rounds of games are played in a season, plus the League Cup and FA Cup, and only low The British Championships that only teams in the league can participate in. Even if these three cup competitions are eliminated in the first round, there are almost 50 games in a season. Three games a week are just as commonplace.

The next day was just a rehabilitative training session. Ben Foster, the biggest siege team that the team advanced to, has become a big star on the training ground. The players came to joke a few times when they had nothing to do, which really made him very happy. have no choice.

Diego Lopez needs to rest for three weeks, which means that in the next period of games, Ben Foster will be the guard of the team's gate, which makes him feel a lot of pressure.

After the training, Loew and David stayed in a tacit understanding and walked into the coach's office together.

The result of the game against Northampton is not very important, but the team was able to win the penalty shootout in such a difficult situation, which helped the team's morale a lot. If we can play a few more games like this, I think the team must be able to integrate faster!

Love poured David a glass of ice water, sat on the sofa, and said with a smile.

David nodded, agreeing with Loew's statement that such a game really boosts morale and enhances the cohesion of the team.

But since we've won this game, we have to make a good plan. Loew straightened his expression and began to get to the point.

David also sat up straight, which was exactly what he wanted to find Loew, and it seemed that the two of them thought of going together.

Although the depth of the team's lineup is good, if there are double games for one week in a row, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive such an intensive schedule, so we need to plan our focus this season.

The league is definitely number one, I don't think you have a different opinion. As for the League Cup and the FA Cup, I would like to hear your thoughts. There is also the British Championship, my opinion is to give up Order this tasteless event. Loew expressed his views, and also sought the opinion of David, the club chairman.
