Fox in the Penalty Area

After Hulai equalized for the second time, neither side scored any more goals until the end of the first half.

Although the singing over the Stan Park Stadium has not diminished, everyone can see that the Rangers' players are still affected by the ball.

The magical effect of this stadium seems to have diminished.

In fact, it's normal. Anyone who gets equalized within three minutes can't be without fluctuations in their hearts.

People have myths about the power of Stan Park before, as if playing here, the players of the Rangers can really be invulnerable and invulnerable to ghosts and gods.

After the game restarted, the Rangers' offensive pace became apparently messy, and they failed to suppress Leeds' counterattack as they did when they lost the first ball.

The two sides fought fiercely in every corner of the court.

You have me I have you.

In this way, hyenas and lions chased and bitten on the African savannah, raising the dust.

It wasn't until the whistle at the end of the halftime that they separated the two.

But both sides have been bruised and bruised.

The image of the lion has changed drastically. Before, the majestic and majestic "king of the beasts" had a lot of hair on his neck bitten off, and red wounds could be seen everywhere on his torso... Maybe the injuries were not as serious as the hyenas, but because The contrast with the previous image is too great, so it seems that the injury is particularly serious.

But in fact, the hyenas are the worst. It's just that they are originally a group of wild dogs, and they usually look dirty. No matter how miserable the image is, what can you expect from a person who often rolls in the mud?

Although very embarrassed, the faces of the players in Leeds City were radiant. When they walked off the court in groups, they were covering their mouths and saying something. Although they couldn't hear the sound or see the shape of their mouths, from their flying eyebrows, they could still feel their mood at this moment-anyway, it was definitely not the kind of loss and depression.

Tony Clark, who saw this scene off the court, said to Sam Randyll next to him: "Sam, there is a door!"

"What's the point?" Randyl was surprised.

Clark didn't answer him, but turned around and ran back to the locker room, leaving behind all the players who hadn't left the court.

Randy was confused and could only replace Clark and the off-court players by high-fiving one by one to show encouragement.

The Leeds City players returned to the locker room and saw the head coach Clark, who had taken off his suit and was wearing only a shirt, and with his sleeves rolled to his elbow.

And the whiteboard beside him has been filled with various arrows, numbers, circles and solid lines and dotted lines.

Every time a player came in, he waved at the opponent: "Sit down, sit down, hurry up and sit down!"

He looked very anxious, as if he didn't want to delay for a second.

After everyone was seated, he personally went to close the door, and then walked back, slapped hard and shouted:

"Guys, it's time to decide a victory or defeat with them! In the first half you proved one thing-even in the'unbeaten home court', the Stan Park Rangers are not invulnerable monsters! They can make mistakes, they There will also be unguarded balls! I know that in four years and eight months, no team can beat them in this stadium, but we don’t have to think about it now, we just need to do our best. Leave the rest to God! Go on the field and grab it! Go fight! Go for every ball! Use our best energy and have a good fight against the defending champion!"

After speaking, he looked at Camara and tapped the white board behind him with his hand:

"In the face of their high position, our deep play is effective. So in the second half, we have to stick to this tactic. Camara, you have to rush forward as much as possible. You don’t have to withdraw and be a ferryman. Let Quinn support you on the premise. You need to be at the forefront so that our players can kick the football as far forward as possible. This not only increases our offensive threat, but also suppresses Lao!"

Hearing the head coach's arrangement, Camara nodded vigorously.

After half a season, his English has improved. Although there is no guarantee that the head coach will understand every sentence and every word, he can still understand the general meaning:

The boss told him to rush forward to disrupt the opponent's line of defense and press the Rangers' left guard Johnson Law.

Each of these is what he is best at and also most want to do.

"Then Hu." Clark pointed to Hu Lai, "You have to move with Lorenzo as the center and stay around him at all times. When Lorenzo fights for the first landing point, you must pay attention to controlling the second landing point. It's just like your second ball. But if the opponent targets you close, then you withdraw from the penalty area. If the opponent's defender comes out, of course it is good... If not, then you can try a long shot. "

"No problem, boss." Hu Lai, who was resting barefoot, replied simply while rubbing her feet.

"Pete, when you and Jay are in midfield, when one of them gets the ball, the other will quickly move forward and act as a temporary fulcrum to attract defensive attention. You must move forward immediately after you pass the ball. Insert into the gap behind the opposing defensive player...The same goes for the penalty area. If the movement of Hu and Lorenzo creates a gap in the penalty area, you will resolutely step in and shoot!"

Clark drew a schematic diagram of the two moving forward alternately on the whiteboard.

After the explanation, he said to the players of the team: "Go forward, try to go forward. Don't be afraid of making cross passes and back passes. Don't be afraid of mistakes. If you lose the pass, you will reclaim the defense. It's no big deal. It's just a little more physical. And the last thing we lack is physical fitness! Think about the pain you all suffered during the physical training phase before the season. What is it for? Isn't it to run better than your opponents at this time?! So remember, we You are able to fight them like this on the road! Besides, our biggest goal this season has been accomplished, and we can completely lay down our burdens... Don't you want to know how far you are from the defending Premier League champion?"

He looked around, exchanged glances with almost every player in Leeds City, then spread out after a pat:

"Then this is the best chance! It is also the last chance this season!"

"I have to emphasize to you again, gentlemen, to keep high positions during the game. Don't worry that the empty space behind us will be caught by Leeds, because we will take theirs before they catch the empty space behind us. The line of defense was sloppy!"

In the locker room of the Stan Park Rangers, head coach Scott Brooks opened his hands and said to his players.

"Compared with their sharp and crazy offense, Leeds’ defense is like shit. Tony Clark obviously knows this, so he almost gave up on the defensive arrangements, just blindly attacking with us. Since they are they If you want to score a goal, please satisfy them! Maintaining high pressure, forcing their defense to make mistakes on their own, giving us a chance to counterattack on the spot, this is more effective than thinking about how to withstand their offense in the defensive third zone. ..."

"Dear spectators, welcome back to Stan Park to witness this Premier League first and second matchup! Forty-five minutes in the first half, the two teams blasted four goals and scored two goals each. They did not make any personnel adjustments during the break...Let’s see if the two teams can continue their craziness in the second half..."

When the referee blew the whistle for the start of the second half of the game, the shouts of Stan Park Stadium suddenly increased, like the starting gun of the 100-meter race.

Although they failed to take the lead in the first half, the fans of the Stan Park Rangers were still full of expectations and confidence in their team's performance after a 15-minute adjustment after the intermission.

After all, this is on their home court. In this stadium, they have not experienced a game like today. Those ninety unbeaten home games were not all downwinds that were crushed all the way.

Sometimes, Stan Park Rangers need to do their best to win the game until the last minute. Sometimes, thanks to the blessing of Goddess of Luck, they did not lose the game at home.

So what have the fans here never seen before?

A mere Leeds United can't make them nervous.

In the first half, Leeds City's counterattack was indeed very powerful, but they also have a fatal flaw, that is, poor defense.

If it's just a goal, what is there to be afraid of the Rangers at home?

After the whistle, ~www.ltnovel.com~ the two teams collided fiercely on the court again, fighting desperately amidst the deafening shouts of the fans.

"Palacio swept the football in front of the goal from the wing! Lao--! Ah! His shot was thrown out by Van Deven!"

"Hu Lai! Beautiful single-shot-the goal is in... Oh no! Offside! Hu Lai is offside first, the goal is invalid! Well... it is indeed offside..."

"Both teams are very open to play. This may have something to do with their situation-the Stan Park Rangers currently lead second place Leeds by as much as 11 points, and Leeds has also succeeded in relegation early. So they can all be said to have no baggage, and they don’t have to think about the consequences of winning or losing, so they can devote themselves to the game and come up with what they do best... I suddenly have a hunch that this game may become the Premier League this season. Masterpiece!"

In the fast-paced transition between offense and defense, Matthew Cox took the time to say with emotion.

In the case that most of the traditional BIG6 teams did not perform well this season, Leeds City has emerged. This young team has brought vitality and freshness to the league.

Let alone where they can stand in the end this season, at least with their game, it will not be dull and boring.

Because you never know the game in Leeds, what will happen in the next minute...

In the 57th minute, the Stan Park Rangers took a corner kick and the football was driven away in the melee.

Stan Park Rangers forward Matti Palacio grabbed the second spot and tried to take the football away. As a result, he collided with Leeds defender Quinn, and he screamed and fell to the ground!

The whistle sounded!

The referee, who was standing just outside the penalty area line, pointed his finger at the penalty spot!

Cheers in Stan Park Stadium!
