Fox in the Penalty Area

When Ricardo Vallia stepped onto the court, he glanced at the stadium's big screen.

The score was 0:1, and Tramed, who was a guest, took the lead.

This is what he scored.

It was also his first goal in the Premier League.

For him, the goal came a bit late... but it was better than never.

As a super genius who has been followed by fans and the media throughout Portugal, Barria has enjoyed the treatment of being a star of the moon since he was a child.

When he was in Portugal, he played in Portugal's traditional giant Alvara first team before the age of sixteen, setting the record for the youngest player in the top league in Portuguese football history.

He played for the Portuguese national team when he was less than seventeen years old. He is only 21 years old and has a record of 36 national team appearances.

When the Portuguese national youth team won the U19 European Youth Championship, the team was hailed by the Portuguese media and fans as the new golden generation of Portugal, shouldering the mission of re-emergence of Portuguese football.

At that time, the top star and striker Barria of that team was the representative of this golden generation. He not only won the European Youth Championship, but also the best scorer and best player in the European Youth Championship, combining the three most important honors in one.

Such players have attracted much attention as soon as they debuted. After winning the European Youth Championship, everyone speculated that he would leave Alvara and go to the top five leagues. In fact, there are indeed many giant teams throwing an olive branch to him.

However, Baria made a decision that surprised everyone-he and Alvara renewed their contract for three years, and continued to play for two seasons in this Portuguese giant team to help Alvara. Achieved three consecutive championships in the domestic league.

Then this year he moved to the Premier League giant Tramed, who was no longer in his heyday, with a value of 65 million pounds.

Many people were surprised and puzzled by his choice.

Obviously there are better options, such as Stan Park Rangers and Manchester Athletic are pursuing him. In addition to the Premier League, the Bundesliga and La Liga giants can also choose.

Why choose a Tramed that is somewhat inferior to the past?

At the ceremony to join Tramede, Baria stated his ambitions: "I have been a Tramede fan since I was a child. I chose Tramede because I hope that I can help her get back to the right place. In terms of location, I hope to always engrave my name on the outer wall of the Red Top Stadium."

Tramed has a tradition. There is an area on the outer wall of the red top stadium. Only those legendary celebrities who have played for Tramed and have made important contributions to the club are eligible to engrave their names on it for later use. People admire and miss. For every player who plays in Tramed, this is the supreme honor and the goal they strive for.

At the beginning, it sounded loudly.

But now in retrospect, it is inevitable that Baria blushes a bit.

Because this Portuguese super genius, who was placed high hopes by everyone and made big talk at the joining ceremony, played the previous three Premier League games without even a goal.

Fortunately, he finally scored goals in today's game against Leeds, breaking the scoring shortage and regaining his confidence.

Although it strayed slightly, in the end I was back on the right track.

In Baria's heart, Leeds City is indeed a very suitable opponent for him to show his ability and ambition.

He has studied a little and knows that this team is not strong and has a radical style. Even if it is facing an opponent whose strength is far stronger than them, he doesn't seem to know what is called "shrinking defense", but will go forward and attack the opponent. Fight against each other.

Generally speaking, the team that does this will have a lot of space behind the defensive line, just suitable for their own speed advantage.

If Leeds come out to attack Tramed in the second half, maybe this game will turn into a carnage, and I should be able to score a few more goals...

Thinking of this, Baria clenched his fists.

Just use this game to tell the world that I, Ricardo Valle, are no worse than Madrid King’s Meli and Manchester Athletic’s Cabanka!

※※※

After the start of the second half of the game, as expected by Baria, Leeds, who played at home, was unwilling to lose to Tramed, and began to press out and actively seek offense.

This makes an empty space behind them...

This is really...a great gift package to your door!

When Leeds pushed forward along the right road to attack, Baria looked left and right.

Leeds City's right back Toby Isherwood has pressed on to participate in the attack, leaving a huge gap behind him...

And if Leeds City fails to complete this attack and their right back cannot return to defense in time...this is their own opportunity!

So instead of returning to defense, he slowly moved from the center to the other side, waiting for his teammates to pass the ball. The reason why he didn't directly raise his hand for the ball was because he was afraid that he might startle and cause Leeds' defensive reaction in advance.

He believes that with the ability and vision of his teammates, seeing himself in that place, he will definitely pass the football.

Sure enough, Leeds City’s attack failed. Tramed's left-back Joseph Rogers stole the ball and shifted the football to Connor Kirk, who had retreated to meet his captain.

Kirk looked up and saw Baria standing on the front line, so he passed the football with a long pass.

But Balia did not get his wish to hit the quick counterattack he imagined, because when the football flew in front of him, it was pushed out of the sideline by a figure!

"Jay Adams!" Cox exclaimed, "He made a key defense! If Barria receives this ball, the Leeds defense line will be empty!"

Tony Clark on the sidelines shrugged to coach Sam Randyll: "This is the benefit of organizing midfielders and switching to defensive midfielders. Jay has insight into Tramed’s intentions and route of this offense. ."

As early as Barea sneaked closer to the sideline, Jay Adams, who was originally in the middle, noticed his movement and moved there in advance to shorten the distance between the two.

When Kirk made a long pass, he decisively speeded up and rushed to get the football out of the sideline before Baria. Dissolved Tramed's threatening attack this time.

At this time, full-back Isherwood ran back and stretched out his palm to Adams.

Adams, who returned to the court from the field, reached out and gave him a high-five, returning the defense to his teammates.

Although he just completed a successful defense and won the applause of the Leeds City fans in the stands, Adams's face was calm, without a look of triumph, not even a smile.

He just calmly returned to his defensive position.

Baria was a little upset that he didn't succeed in the sneak attack this time, but he was quickly relieved-the second half had just begun, and he had time and opportunity.

Besides, if there is no time to take advantage of speed, can he not score goals?

This time the clearance ball was thrown, Baria and his teammates made a two-by-one hit to the wall. When he turned forward, he received a pass from his teammate and faced Leeds defender Charlie Porter, taking advantage of a change in rhythm. Stabbed the football away first, and after shaking the opponent away, directly kicked a long shot from outside the penalty area.

This time he failed to hit the goal frame, and the football flew out of the bottom line directly above the crossbar.

Even so, the commentator Cox also praised his performance: "Baria was in good shape after the goal, and he was very active at the beginning of the second half. The previous attack almost made him complete, and now he is far away. Shooting is also quite threatening!"

※※※

Camara received the ball on the wing. He doesn't have the conditions of Baria. Tramed was able to recover quickly this time. After he received the ball, he didn't actually give him the space like Baria.

It doesn't matter what the situation is if he changes to the previous one, he will be over. He fully believes in his skills under his feet, and tries to use his dazzling skills to get past all those who stand in front of him.

But in fact... the result of most of the time he did this was to lose the ball, and the opponent did not foul.

This time facing the players of Tramed, who was waiting in line, Camara saw that he had no chance to play his own specialties, so he passed the football sideways to Jay Adams who came up to meet him.

Adams transitioned the football to Pete Williams and reorganized the offense.

Camara moved forward, looking for opportunities.

In the end, Leeds did not pass the football back to his feet in this attack. Pete Williams divided the football to the right, and Charlie Porter completed the cross.

Captain Lorenzo scrambled for a header in the penalty area. Although he scored a point, the football was pushed out by Lorenzo under the close interference of Tramed central defender Steko Wilson.

Seeing the end of the attack, Camara turned around and ran back, ready to defend.

When playing in Flemish, he considered himself the protagonist of the team and he had to participate in every attack. It's not because he likes to be pushy, but his teammates are too useless. If he doesn't participate, then don't even want to create a threat.

But now in Leeds, he knows very well that he is not the only one on this team. He also has some equally good teammates. The offense can't be around him, and he is not the core of the team's tactics. For example, in the last round of the league, he was replaced midway, Leeds City eventually defeated the fifth league Abian 2:0.

Reality reminded him time and time again that he is still far from being the protagonist on the stage of the Premier League...

※※※

After Leeds’ offense was over, it was Tramed’s turn.

Just like this, the two teams have come and go, and they have played against each other.

The pace of the game is very fast, and exciting scenes often appear, causing the fans on both sides of the stands to cheer.

But the score is still 1:0, Tramed leads.

This scene is quite a bit of "light thunder but not rain".

Camara was tightly defended by Tramed on the left wing he was accustomed to-although he only played a good game after the start of the league, the remaining two games did not play very well, but Trame Germany's coach Kevin Locke did not relax his vigilance against him. After he played, he specifically asked Tramed defender Joseva Iglesias on the right to strengthen his defense against Camara.

In addition, Leeds City originally had Quinn who was good at assisting in the post. So before the game, Locke asked the team to shift the defensive focus to this side. This time comes in handy.

Off the court, Clark saw that Camara had little room to play after he came on the court, so he simply asked Camara and Charlie Porter to change positions and go to the right.

Anyway, Kamara is an almighty player with left and right feet. He can play on both sides. There is nothing wrong with changing to the right.

But Charlie Potter, a pure right foot, will not get used to it if he goes to the left. But at this time Clark naturally does not expect him to provide any help in the offense. He only needs to help other teammates to maintain the formation, help defensively, and support Quinn.

Baria glanced at Leeds City’s No. 22 player who had come here, and then turned his gaze back.

He doesn't care who is here, no matter who it is, he can't stop him anyway.

What he cares more about is that he has only scored one goal up to now.

Seeing that the second half started almost twenty minutes... he still only scored one goal.

He was a little anxious.
