Chapter 881 The choice of fate


Chapter 881 The choice of fate

Not long after Hulay scored, the first half ended.

So He Feng is right, this ball is very important and of great significance.

If Leeds City goes into the halftime break with a score of 0:1, Coach Clark will consider the score as a premise when considering tactics. Now he only needs to think about how to overtake the score instead of equalizing the score.

The starting point is different, and the requirements for the team are different.

But one thing will not change, that is, after the Leeds City players returned to the locker room, they were severely scolded by head coach Clark.

"...What are you doing? Do you really think you have won the league championship? Let's not say that the league is not over yet, let's just say that we are still behind Stan Park Rangers! Damn it! You are performing like this What’s the difference from the Stan Park Rangers who were all sleepwalking when they heard we won! What reason do you have to look down on them?”

Clark walked around the locker room yelling at players.

The players lowered their heads after being scolded by him, not even daring to look at him.

Through last season's final success in relegation and the ranking he led the team to this season, Tony Clark has gained a high reputation among the players. It’s no longer like when he first took over the team. Now everyone is willing to listen to him, and they won’t feel unhappy if they are scolded...

"You have to know! What we are challenging is the giant in this national league! They are a wealthy team with more than a hundred years of excellent tradition! When we compete with such an opponent, if we cannot go all out, we will If you are lucky, you will definitely die without a burial place! Why do you think all the Premier League championships have been won by BIG6 in the past 34 years? Because they have money and can afford the best players? Stupid! Is that because they are a wealthy family and they have enough experience and tradition to support them in the most dangerous moments? Are they wealthy from the beginning? Of course not! The rich are built with the experience of winning one championship after another and fighting their way out of adversity again and again!”

"We want to challenge such a team. If we can't do better than them, why should we win the championship? Do you just think about it with your brains?!"

Clark glared at the players in the locker room, showing no mercy for Hulay's equalizer.

After all, Hulay's goal cannot change the fact that the team played poorly in the first half. It can only show that Leeds City is pretty lucky.

"Stan Park Rangers made a mistake after we won the game against Boscombe, so we have to make the same mistake to pay it back? This is a football match, not a fucking medieval knightly duel! Give me a fight! Come on, I won't let you do it again in the second half You are so ignorant! You are so far away from making history... But if you miss the opportunity to make history because of your stupidity, you will regret it in this life! "< br>


After scolding all the players, Clark began to arrange the team's tactics for the second half.

In fact, there are not many places that can be adjusted tactically. The biggest problem in this game was that the mentality of Leeds City players was not right, so the tactics in the first half did not work well at all.

As long as they adjust their mentality and play according to the tactics arranged before the game, Leeds City still has a high chance of winning the game.

After all, there is a big gap between Abion's strength and Leeds City's.

The last time the two teams met, Leeds City beat Abion 2-0 away from home. It was the beginning of the season, and Leeds City was not yet at its strongest.

Now, after a season of running-in, Kamara, Adams and Grist have basically fully integrated into the team, and the team's strength has been greatly strengthened. Otherwise, how can we fight with Stan Park Rangers?

If they can't beat Abion at home despite trying their best, then forget about the league title...

Of course, considering that Abion may shrink its defense, Clark still made some targeted adjustments.

※※※

"Although you lost the ball at the end of the first half, your performance was very good!"

Unlike Clark who went on "hair dryer mode" at half-time, Abion's head coach Kian Schiri was not shy about praising his players in the dressing room.

Originally, after Abion secured relegation in advance, they had no more desires. But now they've found a whole new target.

"Guys, we may not have thought before this game that we have the opportunity to be a key figure in determining the league title this season - as long as we can beat or draw with Leeds City away from home, then they are very likely to win. Can’t win the league championship this season!”

After this round of league games, there are still two rounds left in the Premier League.

Stan Park Rangers will face London Bridge at home in the next round of the league. This game is not easy to play. But Leeds City's schedule is not much better - they will face Tramed away in the next round.

So if Leeds City wants to surpass Stan Park Rangers, today's game is the best opportunity.

After all, it seems that Abion is much easier to deal with than Tramed.

If Leeds City can't even win against Abion, don't expect them to beat Tramed away from home.

Therefore, Schiri said that Abion is the key figure in determining the league championship, and he is not wrong.

"Years from now, when people look back on this season's Premier League title race, our name will be mentioned. But how they evaluate it depends on how you perform in the game. If Leeds beat us, they will Climbing to the top...the glory belongs to Leeds City, and we, Abion, are just a stepping stone! Who of you is willing to be a stepping stone?”

he asked loudly, looking around with wide eyes.

The Abion players in the locker room gasped and shouted: "No! We don't want to be a stepping stone!"

"Then hold on to the goal in the second half and don't let Leeds City score! Especially don't let Hu score! Otherwise we will not only be a stepping stone for Leeds City to win the championship, but also a stepping stone for Hu to win the Premier League Golden Boot!"

In Manchester Athletic's 2:1 victory over Boscombe that ended yesterday, Malvin Stones scored a goal.

But Hulay also scored in today's game, so he is still four goals ahead of Stones.

With two rounds left in the league, the gap of four goals is already huge. If Hulay scores in the second half and widens the goal gap to five goals or more... then this season's The battle for the Golden Boot will also completely lose its suspense.

Whether it is the competition for the league title or the golden boot, it all falls on the ordinary team of Abion.

It seems to be destiny that allows them to choose where history will go.

※※※

After the start of the second half, everyone discovered that Abion had changed its tactics.

"They tightened their defense..." Stan Park Rangers assistant coach Brown said after watching the TV for a while, "Abion wants to directly defend the 1:1 score to the end? This is for us What a good news!”

Regarding Brown's surprise, Brooks was noncommittal: "If they can really do it...of course."

But he was not sure whether Abion could really withstand Leeds City's crazy offensive in the second half.

This team is not good at defense, and they certainly have not done any defensive training specifically for Leeds City's offense before.

From the tactical difference between the first and second halves, it can also be seen that Abion had a temporary intention to hold on to the 1:1 score.

Therefore, Brooks was unsure whether Abion could withstand Leeds City's attack.

※※※

"Abion adjusted their tactics and started to defend more, and the players played very concisely in the backcourt - if they get the ball, they will kick the football forward more, and it will be good to counterattack. But if If they can't win, they will never let the football stay in their half, even if they give Leeds City a throw-in in the backcourt..."

He Feng and Yan Kang analyzed.

"This is not good news for Leeds City. Abion voluntarily gave up the ball, which seemed like a suicidal move. But in fact, for Abion, who is not as strong as Leeds City, this may be a problem. The right choice. The team can focus on putting the bus in front of the goal and concentrate all their energy on defense, which is much better than looking forward and backward to maintain a draw and win..."

After hearing the analysis of the two commentators, Xie Lan turned to her husband and asked: "Is that so?"

Hu Lixin nodded with a stern expression: "That's right."

"But isn't Leeds City famous for its fierce offensive firepower?"

Leeds City, which has scored 77 goals in the league so far, is the team with the most goals in the Premier League this season, and its offensive firepower ranks first in the Premier League.

"Actually, Abion only need to be able to withstand half an hour, and they really hope to get a point away from home... As the game time becomes less and less, Leeds City will definitely panic if they fail to score a goal. The mentality of the players has changed. After the change, it will be even harder to score goals..." Hu Lixin explained to his wife.

"Leeds City couldn't even score a goal for half an hour?" Xie Lan's eyes widened, feeling incredible.

"It's hard to say. Some things are difficult to explain clearly. It's just like who would have thought that Stan Park Rangers would only lead by one point when they were seven points ahead of Leeds City. This is..."


Xie Lan interrupted her husband: "I know, 'football is round'..."

After saying that, she curled her lips and continued to watch the game.

※※※

Hu Laila came out of the penalty area, received a pass from his teammate, and tried to take a long shot. But this time, as soon as he caught the ball, an Abion player hit him from behind. Let alone a long shot, he couldn't even turn around.

He can only pass the football with his back to the direction of attack, otherwise he might lose the ball to him...

After he scored with a long shot in the first half, in the second half, Abion stepped up its defense against his long shot.

And because of the recycling of all players, Abien now has more people to defend inside and outside the penalty area, and there will be no situation where he gets the ball outside the penalty area and the defensive players cannot be in place.

Unless he can retreat to the center circle and shoot from a long distance... But the problem is that Hu Lai can't shoot from that distance!

"It was also said that Hu could take more long-range shots... Now it seems that Sqiri has taken this into consideration for us." Sam Randill shook his head and sighed.

"Since we are going to set up a bus, of course we have to block our most threatening offensive players." Clark was not surprised.

"Now there are people in the penalty area and people outside the penalty area. It is not easy for Hu to get an opening..."

"Space changes all the time, Sam." Clark said, staring at Abion's penalty area. "If we just pass the football step by step, it will be really difficult to gain new space... But we still have As for Kamara, his breakthrough and dribbling can create space.”

Randhir didn't say anything, just looked at Ismael Kamara on the court.

※※※

When Kamara was still playing in the French third league, he never imagined that he would have the opportunity to touch the Premier League championship trophy after just one season.

His life has undergone earth-shaking changes in this season. He went from being an unknown to a superstar...well, there is no "super" or "giant", but he can barely be considered a "star".

Although it is still not as good as those real superstars, it is still a leap for him.

In fact, he still doesn't know how he, who was unknown in France's third league, was spotted by a Premier League team.

But that's not important.

The important thing is that his performance deserves the attention of the team.

You have to stand up when the team encounters difficulties, just like Hulay, who always stands up when the team is in crisis and leads us to victory with goals.

That was the case with that goal in the first half.

Without him on the ball, we would be in a much worse situation now.

But precisely because of that ball, Hu Lai is now trapped in the opponent's muscle jungle, with almost no room to display.

He knows that players like Hu Lai will always be targeted by defensive players and trapped in tight siege.

That’s why I need to stand up at this time!

It's your turn, Ismail!

※※※

When Kamara received the ball on the wing, there were people in front of him.

Except for one Abion player who directly defended him, there were people inside and outside the penalty area, including those from Abion and Leeds City.

Because Abion has set up a bus, there is basically no room for Kamara to use his speed.

If he wants to do what he usually does, suddenly accelerating and relying on speed to get rid of his opponents, he can only throw the football into the crowd.

Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Kamala sneered in his heart: Who said my only weapon is speed?

Kamara, who first came to the Premier League, was very flashy and was once ridiculed on the Internet as a "juggling player". His fancy moves are not only redundant, but also have no very good effect.

Because of this, his performance was not good.

Later, after painful adaptation and running-in, he finally found his own rhythm little by little: reducing redundant fancy moves, combining his own speed, choosing more concise and practical technical moves, and turning himself into a fast horse on the wing.

But this does not mean that Ismael Kamara, a person with a background in street football, will not play tricks!
