Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 92: "Strategic Depth"

   Andrei Kalashnikov, who had just been replaced, was eager to do his best. Facing the defense of Ion Martinez, he chose to break through with the ball directly, wanting to eat his opponents at his own speed.

   But he underestimated Ion Martinez, who was able to win the World Cup with the Spanish national team.

   Just as he drove the football out, Ion quickly cut and turned around, and inserted before he could raise the speed, separating Kalashnikov from the football.

   Because the timing is just right, it is not a blocking foul.

After    blocked Kalashnikov, Ion took control of the football again.

Facing the close interference of Kalashnikov behind him, he first made a fake move to turn in the direction of the penalty area. After successfully deceiving the center of gravity in the opposite direction, he immediately moved the football to the sideline with the outer instep of his right foot. He dialed the direction, and at the same time his body turned there, passing by Kalashnikov!

   It was too late for Kalashnikov to turn around and was blocked by Ion.

   After Yon took the ball and ran forward for two steps, after attracting the defense of the Madrid Kings midfielder Albin Estrom, he crossed the football to Joaquin Bella who met him in the middle.

   In front of Ion Martinez, the nineteen-year-old Kalashnikov is still too tender.

   Yon is not difficult to guard.

   But the pressure on Captain Juan Ramirez is great.

   "Merry!"

   "Merry!"

   "Merry!!"

   narrators from all over the world in the narration booth shouted the same name in different languages.

   At the same time, cheers were thunderous in the stands of the Crown Stadium.

   On the court, Melly is playing against Ramirez.

   His left foot stroked over the football, a simple bicycle, because the movement is concealed and the foot lift is small, so it is very deceptive.

   makes people wonder if he really wants to shift the football to the left, or is a fake action of pedaling a bicycle.

   Ramirez was unmoved by this action.

   Sure enough, Melly was just a fake move, his right foot followed the football again.

   Ramirez judged that Meli should come for real this time, and he raised his foot to intercept.

   But when he just raised his foot, Melly's foot touched the football one step before him, and he gently stabbed the football with the toe of his right foot!

   The ball slipped between Ramirez's legs and passed through the crotch!

   Ramirez's reaction was fast enough, he turned around for the first time, and at the same time opened his arms slightly, blocking Melly behind him.

   But when he realized that he might not be able to stop Melly, Ramirez also immediately made a decision-he shoveled into the football!

   Meli kicked the football out!

   He didn't completely destroy the football, he just shoveled the football a little bit farther, and Melly can continue to chase the ball.

   But his tackle undoubtedly broke Meli's original dribbling rhythm. He had to speed up again and pay a higher price to try to regain the ball.

   This greatly increased Melly's offensive cost.

   Not to mention Ramirez's tackle, and he even put the football closer to the pirate center defender Moreno.

   Moreno only needs a stride to get up and get the ball earlier than Melly.

He made a stance to make a big-foot clearance, but when his foot really touched the football, he suddenly pulled back and pushed the football past Melly who jumped up to block him. He also wiped Melly away, and then moved the football. Prequel-At this time, the pirates are still thinking about using a counterattack to contain the offensive of the Madrid King, rather than being so scared that they can only make a big-foot relief.

   Played for two seasons under Palotti, who emphasized passing control. The Pirates knew very well that successful defense is definitely not giving up the ball.

  Only by controlling the football on your side can you increase your team’s chances of winning the game.

   Meli did not succeed in this attack. He did not stay in place and sighed to the sky. Instead, he quickly turned around and grabbed back-there was not much time, but he didn't have the time to play a bitter drama here.

   The game time is getting less and less, and the hope of the Madrid Kings to win this game is getting less and less.

   When there are less than 30 minutes left in the game, it is not impossible to score three goals, although it is difficult.

   But when there are fifteen minutes left in the game, if you want to score three goals in a row, or play against a team like the Madrid Pirates, that's basically a fantasy.

   So now the more pragmatic idea is to be able to score two goals in a row and tie the score.

   at least cannot lose to a deadly enemy at home.

   Meli retreated to the center of the midfield. Royvey wanted to use his dribbling ability to drive the King’s offense.

   The original offensive midfielders Dudu Carlos and Albin Estrom retreated further and fell to the position of the midfielder.

  The midfield configuration changed from the original inverted triangle to the forward triangle.

   But this does not mean that the Madrid King’s offensive will slow down, but that it will become more fierce.

   The Madrid Pirates midfielder Damian Dia, who was substituted, was on the right, but he actually came up to help Ramirez defend, so he often had to retreat to the center.

   In this way, the Madrid Pirates have only right back Jose Irasusta on the right, and the King’s left back Brazil international Russell Fonseca has frequently come up to participate in the offensive, putting pressure on the pirates.

   In response to this situation, Parotti adjusted on the spot, allowing forward DiKunzo to follow along to the side to defend, to curb Russell Fonseca’s crazy insertion.

   There is a Hu Lai top in the middle, which is a kind of "strategic deterrence." Warn the two central defenders of the Madrid Kings, don't overtake it lightly, we still have the strength to threaten your goal.

   The time of the game just passed quickly in the confrontation between the two teams.

   In the last ten minutes of the game, the King's offensive was even more frantic. Damian Dia, who came off the bench, blocked Meli's offense with a foul and a yellow card to help Ramirez share the pressure. Otherwise, this time maybe Ramirez had taken a card, and then the two yellows changed to one red and he was sent off directly...

   Even Hu Lai retreated to the center line and participated in the defense.

   In the eighty-fourth minute, he chased Meli, who had retreated to take the ball, and seemed to have a direct conversation with the Argentine.

   But he ran two steps before being left behind by Melly.

   Fortunately, under the combined defense of the pirate players, it still withstood the King's offensive.

   Just as the football flew out of the bottom line, Hu Lai sat down on the ground and waved to his nearest teammate Joaquin Bella: "Quick, Joaquin, I have a cramp!"

   Bella hurried up to press his leg.

   Goalkeeper Haywell saw this, pointed in the direction where Hu Lai was, and signaled to the referee that there was an emergency on the court.

   Then he just stood there, not going to the caddie for the ball, even though the caddie had thrown the football back on the court, he ignored it.

   made up his mind that if Hu Lai's situation is not handled properly, he will not tee off.

   There was a boo in the stands, but I don’t know if it was aimed at Haywell or Hu Lai...

   The referee signaled that the game should be suspended. He turned and ran to see what happened to Hu Lai.

   The boos in the stands were louder.

   When the referee ran over, Hu Lai was grinning on the ground.

   The referee asked, "How is it? Do you want the team doctor to come up for inspection?"

   Hu Lai waved his hand quickly: "It's good soon, it's good soon..."

   Then he said to Bella: "Okay, Joaquin. Help me up..."

   Joaquin Bella put down Hu Lai's cramped left leg, and then pulled him up from the ground.

   Hu Lai tried to take two steps by himself. Although he still limped a little, he nodded to the referee: "I'm fine, sir."

   The referee nodded, then ran back to the front, motioning for Haywell to kick the goal.

   The Belgian national goal left the football that had been thrown on the pitch, and turned around to find the caddie for the ball-such a naked act of delaying the game was naturally stopped by the referee. He pointed at the football that was already in the penalty area and motioned to Haywell to use that ball.

   Haywell reluctantly walked over to put the football...

   Fortunately, in the second half, behind the Pirates goal was not the north stand where the diehard King fans gathered, otherwise he could clearly hear the cordial greetings from the fans to the 18th generation of his family's ancestors.

   At the same time, Palotti said to assistant coach Valentine on the sidelines: "Let Ruiz warm up."

   Valentin turned around and ran over to shout someone from the bench.

"The substitute forward of the Madrid Pirates Sanabria Ruiz was called by the assistant coach from the bench to warm up. It looks like he is going to replace Hulai..." He Feng noticed the situation on the sidelines and told the TV The former audience analyzed.

"In this game Hu Lai had a cramp. You must know that cramps are very rare for Hu Lai. This shows how strong the Madrid Derby is... This match is indeed very intense. The high-intensity physical confrontation between the two sides started from the match. The first minute of the game has continued to the present. The Madrid Pirates currently have four yellow cards in the team, and the Kings have three yellow cards... Fortunately, there has been no red card in this game so far..."

"At this point in the game, the Pirates are actually getting closer and closer to their first victory at the Crown Stadium in the past four years... Counting injury time, there should be no more than ten minutes left. Madrid. It is very difficult for the King to score two goals in this period of time, almost impossible!"

   He Feng said this a bit deadly, but no one cares about it.

   Because everyone thought he was right.

   Thanks to Hulai, the Pirates now have a two-goal lead.

   In other words, the Madrid Pirates have enough "strategic depth~www.readwn.com~ even if they did not defend in the last few minutes and lost a ball, it would not affect the final result.

   Even the Madrid Kings players are a little discouraged.

  Melly is still looking for opportunities.

   doesn't seem to know that even if he can score a goal, it will not change the outcome of the King's defeat.

   He dribbled the ball on the left and tried to break, but the ball was knocked out of the sideline by Ira Susta.

   Meli immediately turned around to ask the caddy for the ball.

   The home ball boy also understood very well and quickly threw the football to him.

   After receiving the ball, Meli turned and threw the football into the field.

   But at the same time, the referee's whistle sounded too-he signaled Meli to wait a while before taking the throw-in, because there was another situation on the court.

   Hu Lai sat down on the ground again, holding his left leg with both hands, with a pained expression.

   He has a cramp again.

   Meli spread his hands and sighed helplessly.

   How can he not see that Hu Lai is deliberately delaying time?

   But what's the use of seeing it?

   is like the boo that rang over the stadium at this time, deafening, but it can't change anything.

  Madrid King, defeat is set!
