Fox in the Penalty Area

Hou Lai's goal in the eight and a half minutes of the game completely disrupted the rhythm of the Sevilla navigators.

They originally wanted to hold off for fifteen minutes before starting to attack, and the attack would not be too fierce, but they planned it slowly.

Pay attention to the word "stable".

Whether it is offensive or defensive, they are steady and steady.

This is also the most suitable strategy for the "Europa League Overlord" Sevilla Navigators.

As a team with rich experience, but the average age is older than Leeds City, the last thing it should do is to fall into the fast pace of Leeds City.

And trying to slow down the pace of the game, so slow that Leeds City is uncomfortable, that is the most comfortable way for the Sevilla Voyagers to play.

But now all the expectations of the Seville Navigator were shattered by Hou Lai's long-range kick.

It is difficult for the lagging Seville Navigators to deal with Leeds City in a leisurely manner as they designed, and then find an opportunity to give a fatal blow.

Even if you don't talk about tactics, just talk about the mentality of the players. After losing the ball, their emotions are in violent fluctuations, and it is difficult to calm down.

"... At this time, we can no longer follow the original plan."

Brent, who recovered from the shock, said to assistant coach Reynolds after regaining his rationality and ability to think calmly.

"If we continue to deal with them slowly as originally planned, it will only let their spirits become stronger and stronger. A team like Leeds City must not give them such a space. Otherwise, let them lose their status. It will be difficult to deal with all morale and morale..."

Renault nodded in agreement.

To put it bluntly, a team like Leeds City is a convulsive team.

Their absolute strength is not strong, but if they play well, they can also overthrow those teams that are much stronger than them on paper.

On this point, the Catalan United may have the most say.

Sevilla Voyagers and Catalan United are both La Liga teams, so they naturally know about that game.

The Catalan United were defeated by Leeds City at their home court.

Is there a big gap between Leeds City and Catalan United, or is there a big gap between Leeds City and the Navigators of Seville?

The set of coping strategies that Brent formulated for the team at the beginning also did not want to let Leeds City gain momentum.

But now that Leeds City has scored a goal, it will not work to rely on that set to contain the opponent.

If you leave it alone and just sit back and watch the city of Leeds grow, you will be in trouble.

What should be done at this time is to attack instead, use the strong overall strength of the Seville Navigators to suppress Leeds City, and severely dampen their spirit.

The Seville navigators are not only slow to deal with their opponents, they can also speed up the pace, and they can also play a very threatening offensive.

With stronger overall strength and richer experience in the finals, regain control of the game.

Assistant coach Reynolds, who understood Brent's thoughts, walked to the sidelines and issued the latest instructions to the players on the field:

attack!

"I have to say that there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames... There is a reason why the Europa League can be dubbed the 'Sevilla Navigator Cup'. The advantage is huge. Sometimes, you have to trust the so-called 'race gene' thing..."

Looking at the ongoing game, Shen Lang said with emotion.

The backward Sevilla navigator did not fall into chaos and bewilderment as many Chinese fans including him expected, and then was seized by Leeds City to make another victory.

Instead, they bounced back quickly from the blow of the dropped ball.

Then launched a fierce attack on Leeds City's goal.

The overall strength and experience of the Seville Navigators are indeed stronger than Leeds City.

So their offense is still very threatening.

The core of Voyager's offensive organization is the Argentine international, the midfielder Pablo Becker, this not tall midfielder has a very delicate footwork. Not only is the midfield playmaker of the Sevilla Navigators,

It is also the core of the midfield organization of the Argentine national team.

Although Meli is more famous now, in the national team, Becker is the well-deserved boss.

Thirty years old this year, he is at the golden age of his career.

When the Sevilla Navigators won the Europa League three years ago, Becker was also the core of the team's midfielder. He made great contributions to the team's victory in that Europa League.

Now he has the experience of winning the Europa League once, and he is at the peak both physically and mentally.

Junpei Morikawa defended very hard, but the effect was not very good.

He was completely restrained by Becker, and he had no time to take care of other places, unable to cover the midfield. Shengsheng became a marking midfielder.

And if he wants to sweep in the midfield, it is easy to miss Becker, a dangerous man.

For this reason Jay Adams had to stay in the midfielder position to help defend. But in this way, Leeds City's offense was affected, and it could only rely on Pete Williams alone.

It stands to reason that Leeds City, which should be pursuing the victory, is now being suppressed by the Seville Navigator.

※※※

Becker received the ball with his back to the attacking direction, and Junpei Morikawa pushed forward immediately.

The Argentine didn't mean to get rid of it in a hurry, but first protected the football, and then used the outer instep of his right foot to push the football to the right of his body, while using his body to separate Junpei Morikawa.

Junpei Morikawa wanted to take advantage of Becker's turn to steal the ball.

However, Becker controlled the distance of the football very well, and did not lose control of the ball when turning around. It was difficult for Junpei Morikawa to successfully intercept the ball.

Becker's delicate technique is not reflected in those fancy and imaginative technical movements, but in such ordinary technical movements that are ordinary but solid in basic skills.

It was such an unusual turn, because Morikawa Junpei didn't find a chance to make a move because of his good control of the ball.

Seeing that the opponent was about to complete his turn and he was about to lose his position, Junpei Morikawa pushed forward with all his strength, and at the same time shoveled towards the football with his feet—since it is not enough to stretch his legs, then counting the length of the whole body, it should be enough, right?

As a result, just as he was shoveling down, Becker flicked the football outward with the outer instep of his right foot.

Junpei Morikawa did not shovel the football, but took Becker down!

The referee's whistle sounded!

"Ah - Junpei Morikawa fouled!" The Japanese commentator who was explaining the game on the spot held his head in his hands and shouted with great regret. "Becker is very smart. Morikawa has no choice but to foul...but this position...is a bit dangerous!"

Jay Adams complained to the referee that he believed Becker was diving.

In fact, whether it is a flop or not, the referee has his own judgment. The reason why he can call a foul shows that Junpei Morikawa must have committed a real foul.

Adams still has to fight for it, also because this position is indeed as the Japanese commentator said... a bit dangerous.

Facing the goal, with a distance of 30 meters, for a free kick master, this is a free kick with impeccable objective conditions.

And Pablo Becker is such a free kick master.

※※※

Jay Adams' protests were useless, and the referee stood by his decision and gave Morikawa a verbal warning.

Considering that Morikawa Junpei shoveled from the side and rear, it was considered merciful not to give a yellow card.

So even Junpei Morikawa himself didn't argue, for fear that the referee would think that he had a bad attitude to plead guilty, and if he backhanded himself a card, that would be "self-inflicted"...

Leeds City goalkeeper van der Ven directed everyone to line up the wall.

Becker stood in front of the penalty spot with a football in his arms, and he wanted to take the penalty in person.

In order to prevent Becker from kicking the football under the human wall, Hu Lai also specially returned to the penalty area to be the "threshold" of the human wall-he lay down about one meter behind the human wall. At the same time, in order to prevent the football from hitting the vital parts, he turned his back to the direction of the ball.

After Leeds City lined up the human wall, the referee came up and sprayed a white line under their feet, so that it was clear at a glance whether the human wall moved secretly.

At the same time he stepped back from the wall to make room.

After confirming that both players were in place, he blew his whistle.

Becker runs up, kicks up, pulls the ball!

The football was pulled out in an arc, spinning violently around the jumping Leeds city wall!

Go straight to the top left corner of the goal!

Goalkeeper van der Ven made a save, stretching his arms as far as he could in the air...he hit the ball!

But the football was not thrown by him, but was slightly deflected, and it still flew into the goal!

"GOOOOOOOOOOL!!!" The Spanish commentator raised his arms and shouted from the commentary booth, "Becker! A beautiful free kick scored directly! After 15 minutes behind, he helped the Sevilla Navigators equalize the score! Now two The team is back on the same starting line!"

"Oh..." Shen Lang yelled regretfully, "Leeds City used Hu Lai's personal ability to take the lead at the beginning of the game. As a result, the Sevilla Navigator also used Becker's personal ability to equalize the score... this arbitrary The ball was earned by Becker, and he kicked it in himself..."

"This free kick Becker played really beautifully, there is no way..." Shi Wuyin shook his head beside him. "Junpei Morikawa was a little reckless. In fact, even if he let Becker complete the turn in the situation just now, as long as he can continue to stick to the opponent, Becker can't do much... Of course, the players are always at a high level during the game. In a state of excitement and tension, it is not always possible to think calmly."

In front of the sideline coach's bench, Sevilla Navigator coach Brent rushed out of the coach's bench, raising his arms and shouting.

Clark, who was next door, turned around and walked back to the coach's bench, shaking his head with assistant coach Randyll.

"It's the Europa League final. But it's no big deal, we keep attacking."
