Chapter 161 Foresight



Chapter 161 Foresight
Amid the cheers from Millwall up and down, the game on the field resumed. Neither team made any adjustments, and the game continued in accordance with the original pattern.

The players on the Leicester City field are not reconciled to falling behind at home, they hope to work hard to tie the score.

So they are trying to speed up the pace.

The speed of passing the ball has become faster, and the forward pass is more, but when they do this, they find that even the time of possession has decreased, because as the pace increases, the number of turnovers continues to increase, and the opponent's time on the ball is also increasing. Increase.

Leicester City players also found that the game was not as easy as head coach Adams said. The Millwall team in front of them is by no means easy to deal with. Even if they are playing at home, it is very difficult to gain an advantage.

Many people can see this form.

Those who have studied football in depth can know the situation of the two teams after watching the game for a few minutes.

From the point of view of ball possession, Leicester City has the advantage. Their cooperation is better and their passing is more exciting, but it is difficult for them to rely on cooperation to break through Millwall's defense.

There is nothing to say about Millwall's offense, whether it is advancing or the counterattack following a sudden interception, the only bright spot is only one word - fast, they do not pursue the subtlety of passing, nor the magnificence of offense , Playing is completely targeted and practical football.

When defending, Millwall used the full court to press, especially in the area from the penalty area to the center line. The players ran more and the defense was tighter.

This simple style of play left Leicester City with nothing to do.

Leicester City speeding up the pace will not make Millwall uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, the number of mistakes will increase, so they will become more passive.

Adams saw the situation, and he could no longer maintain his demeanor. He walked to the sidelines and shouted towards the court, "Steady! Must be steady! Control the ball well and avoid mistakes!"

That's the strategy to have.

At present, what Leicester City should do is to slow down the pace to the extent they are most comfortable, which means that Millwall will be a little uncomfortable. Even if the slow-paced football is difficult to find opportunities in the frontcourt, it must be controlled steadily Ball, control the game.

It's in their best interest to do so.

The players on the field in Leicester City only regained their spirits and devoted themselves to the game after hearing Adams' shout. They were still eager to score goals, but they could only patiently look for opportunities.

The first half passed quickly.

Leicester City failed to tie the score, and Millwall did not find a chance to score again, but Millwall had a goal in hand, and the advantage was still obvious. When the midfielder arrived, the players looked relatively relaxed .

Zhang Yang was quite satisfied with the first half. The team played with its own characteristics and scored a goal.

In the second half, it was time to compete with patience.

Leicester City does not have the awareness of patience in the competition. It is not that Adams is limited as the head coach. He hopes to beat Millwall rather than simply 'strive for a tie'.

Before the game, Adams uttered big words, saying that he would beat Millwall at home, and that the victory would definitely belong to Leicester City. He asked the team to work hard to achieve their goals, otherwise the game would be a slap in the face.

Adams actually found pressure for himself.

In the second half, Leicester City made changes in their offense. They still used the small-scale coordination and advancement they were good at as the main means, but when the football was passed to the front of the penalty area, they significantly increased the number of long-range shots.

In the 49th minute, Leicester City advanced to the front of the penalty area. Midfielder Tom White was 25 meters away from the goal and kicked the goal directly.

It was a surprise attack.

Tom White's long-range shooting ability is obviously insufficient. His shot is only within the range of the goal frame, and the football is easily collected by goalkeeper Graham.

Five minutes later, Leicester City repeated the same trick. When the football was passed to the penalty area, they stopped trying to pass it. Forward James Scowcroft won the ball and shot angrily.

Goalkeeper Graham rushed over. He failed to catch the ball, but the football flew out of the baseline nearly half a meter from the right post.

"call……"

The Leicester fans at the scene felt sorry for not being able to score the goal, and the Millwall players were also a little scared.

"Sky Sports" commentator Paul Stant talked about shooting, "It was Scowcroft just now! His long shot was very threatening, and he almost broke through the Millwall gate!"

Next he introduced Scowcroft.

James Scowcroft is a very good general in the British Championship. He became famous in Ipswich Town and helped Ipswich Town score 98 goals in five seasons. He is a threatening frontcourt killer .

Now he is also Leicester City's second scorer, helping Leicester City score 12 goals this season.

This is also the shot that Leicester City has caused the most threat since the opening. Although the football failed to score, it boosted the morale of Leicester City, and then they devoted themselves to attacking energetically.

----

From the beginning of the second half, Zhang Yang stood on the sidelines.

In the game field, the home and guest coaches' seats are divided into areas. The seats on the bench extend to the field until about one meter from the sideline, which is the area of ​​the coach's bench. Under normal circumstances, whether it is a coach, an assistant coach, Neither officials, team doctors nor players on the bench leave the area.

This is not a rule of the game, but a rule to be followed by default.

The area marked by the white line only represents the boundary, and it doesn’t matter if you leave it a little bit. For example, when a substitute player is about to play and warms up alone, he will go outside the area.

That is allowed.

It is not a big problem for other people to go out of the area occasionally. As long as it does not affect the game and does not provoke the fans behind them, the referee team generally ignores the situation of the coaches.

Zhang Yang stood on the regional line.

This position is already the most forward, and if it is closer to the sideline, it will affect the work of the line judges, but even standing here, he still received the eyes of the line judges. The fourth official seemed to want to remind him that the position Go a little further back.

Zhang Yang glanced at his feet, but stepped on the white line. He shrugged and ignored it, and continued to watch the game seriously.

No, it should be said that he continued to look at the playing cards seriously.

From the beginning of the second half of the game, the camera kept pointing at Zhang Yang. He was wearing a casual suit. He was not dressed so solemnly, and it also highlighted his young and capable temperament. Coupled with his identity as the head coach, he was still very eye-catching, but what attracted more attention was , he is always playing poker in his hand, and most of the time his attention is on the poker instead of paying close attention to the game.

"Sky Sports" commentator Paul Scott's interpretation of this is, "Zhang Yang is still too young, he has not passed the stage of 'playing', and he pays more attention to the exquisite poker in his hand than the boring game. "The TV screen in the live broadcast of the game also gave a close-up shot of the pair of poker.

Other people's understanding of this is 'not doing business properly'.

Zhang Yang doesn't care what others think. He is actually using his foreknowledge to judge the next game, and he also considers the form of the two sides.

Others can only see the past game, but he can see what will happen in the next 5 minutes. So far, there has been no goal in the 'forecast', but he can analyze the real situation of the game from the game situation.

Scowcroft's shot was quite threatening, but in the judgment of "prediction", Leicester City did not play a similar threat in the following time, and there was no direct goal. Millwall's goal was still It is safe, and Scowcroft's long shot is just an accident in the game.

As long as it's an accident, don't worry too much.

If Leicester City can always rely on long-range shots to pose a threat, they need to be very worried. Precognition is not a panacea, and other supernatural abilities will not be of much use under constant threats.

So the overall situation is quite critical.

Zhang Yang let out a long breath.

The game continues.

The game within 5 minutes was very exciting. Leicester City's offensive was going well. They seemed to be performing better and better. Although they have not scored yet, many people believe that it is only a matter of time before they score.

But there was a smile on Zhang Yang's face.

In the 71st minute of the game, Leicester City's offensive was intercepted by the midfielder. Millwall launched a quick offensive. After the football was passed to the right, Josh Simpson dribbled the ball horizontally and cut inward to the middle. Jody Morris.

Jody Morris throws off the defender and drives the ball into the penalty area.

This time the threat is too great.

Leicester City's Greek defender Dabizas was anxious, and brought down Jody Morris with a kick in the penalty area!
There was an exclamation from the audience!

The referee ran over and awarded a penalty kick without any suspense. The Leicester City players argued anxiously, but no matter what they said, there was no way to change the referee's penalty, because Dabizas' foul was too obvious.

Jody Morris stood up and was about to take a penalty.

At this time, Zhang Yang said to Joey Healey who was running past, "Let Neil go to the free throw." Joey Healy didn't know why, but he still told Morris about Zhang Yang's decision.

"Neil going to the free throw?"

Morris was also a little confused, but he didn't really want to take the penalty because he fell to the ground just now, which made him feel a little uncomfortable in his ankle.

So he said, "Neil, you are punished! The boss told you to come!"

Neil Harris is even more confused, but he is still happy. As a striker, the number of goals is very important. He is already 32 years old. He didn't really want to fight for anything. Take good care of him.

Harrison was a little happy for a while.

In fact, within the team, the competitive pressure is still not small. Kevin Keir has always performed well, coupled with the comprehensive ability and younger Braniff, his main position is not stable, and he is sure to score goals. Yes, even if it is a penalty kick, the goal should be counted on his head.

Neil Harris stepped into position.

After the referee signaled that a free throw could be made, facing Leicester City goalkeeper Walker, he kicked a shot in pursuit of an angle. Harris' action deceived Walker, and he rushed to the left, but the football never came. The right side flies into the goal.

"The ball is in!"

"call……"

There were cries of regret from Leicester City fans at the scene.

"Sky Sports" commentator Paul Scott shouted, "This may be a penalty that made Leicester City desperate. Millwall led by two goals! In the next time, they want to recover two It's not easy with the ball."

Zhang Yang also let out a long breath.

In the judgment of 'prediction', Jody Morris did not kick the ball in, and not long after that, Morris would not be on the field.

He seems to be injured?
A goal in exchange for a core injury, I don't know if it is worth it or not, but fortunately the injury is not too serious. When Millwall celebrated the goal, Zhang Yang replaced Morris.

Braniff is at it again.

Braniff replaced Morris, of course not letting him play the core. At this stage of the game, the role of the core players is very small. There is Marvin Elliott in the midfield, Josh Simpson and Josh Simpson on the wing. Yi Healy, the offense can still be played, and Braniff's personal ability is also good, but he can pose a greater threat to the opponent when he plays.

Many people are surprised that Morris was replaced.

The reporters in the media audience were quite surprised. They couldn't figure out why Zhang Yang chose to replace Morris, especially when Morris was about to make a free throw just now.

"Could it be that... Zhang Yang and Morris have conflicts?" Many media speculated excitedly.

This is big news, focus news!
Up to now, Zhang Yang has been very influential, because the results of the Millwall team he led have jumped up, and there is a great prospect of directly competing for promotion places. In the entire Millwall team, there are very few players who have the ability to adjust Zhang Yang. authority.

Jody Morris is special.

He is a big star.

He is worth a third of the Millwall club's market value.

In the entire Millwall team, Jody Morris is also the core player, and he performed extremely well in every game.

If Morris is dissatisfied with Zhang Yang, the Millwall locker room will fall apart for this, and probably the Millwall executives will also consider letting this young man leave!
Some media thought expectantly.

Morris had no objection to Zhang Yang, he just wondered why he was not allowed to take a penalty kick, and why he was substituted off the field. When he walked to the sidelines, he understood, because Zhang Yang said to him, "I think you seem to be It's an injury, go check it out."

Morris suddenly realized!
When he fell down just now, he felt a little pain in his ankle. He didn't take it seriously at first, but now it seems to be a little more painful.

but……

How did Zhang Yang know?
Morris was shocked. He went to the team doctor for an examination. After taking off his shoes, he found that his ankle was bruised.

he got hurt.

Although it's just a minor injury, two or three days of recuperation is certain, and I don't know if I can participate in the next game.

Many people surrounded Morris.

Surrounded by everyone, Morris was not in the mood to pay attention to his feet, but looked at Zhang Yang with a face full of surprise.

How did he know?
Could it be that through observation, he noticed that I was a little awkward when I walked?Morris was a little hard to imagine, and he suddenly remembered a sentence in Weston's joke, "The boss is a magical person. His thoughts and judgments cannot be judged by common sense! As mortals created by God, we can follow the instructions and follow the instructions. All right."

Weston seems very prescient!

PS: I recommend a new basketball book "Guard with a Knife". It tells an interesting story about a Chinese point guard with a height of 193 who is fighting for food in the penalty area, forcing all kinds of iron-blooded centers and violent forwards to have nowhere to go.
