Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 172: Volume 2 Nottingham's Sky Penalty·Delicate Battle (Part 1) (seeking monthly pass)

Wood's brilliant performance aroused the confidence of the Forest team players to unite and defend the crazy offense of Middlesbrough at the last moment. Even if it seemed that they were all embarrassed and embarrassed, but in the end they managed to keep the 0:0 score to overtime.

This is a watershed. Before the Middlesbrough game, I never thought that this game would be dragged into overtime, so they would attack wildly in the last minutes of the game. In Dunn’s eyes, although his heartbeat was quickening, his pupils contracted sharply. , But he saw a smell of dying struggle from the crazy Middlesbrough.

This is their last madness. When the game enters overtime as desired, the Middlesbrough people will no longer have any strength to threaten my goal. This is the fate of underestimating me and my team!

They spent too much energy and energy in the attack in 90 minutes. McLaren did not wait for the moment the Forest team could not support it and collapsed, but his own players became more and more pressured, and at the end of the shot, he could kick directly into the stands-this was to help the Forest team clear the siege.

There is a five-minute break from the 90-minute race to the half-hour overtime. It’s not long. It’s just enough for the players who have been fighting for 90 minutes to sit down and take a breath, drink some water, and listen. The coaches chattered tactically. Then they would stand up and continue to fight.

This time is not suitable for detailed tactical arrangements. Dunn asked everyone to sit together, and then told them: "Continue to defend in overtime and score a penalty kick. We will definitely win!"

Everyone understands the simple and clear tactics. He no longer needs to do the task and spirit encouragement, now the team has high confidence and morale. No need for him to talk more.

After the game entered overtime, because the physical strength of both sides dropped very severely, Middlesbrough could no longer besiege the Forest team, and Dunn began to delay the time with planned substitutions. In the first half of the overtime game, he replaced the exhausted Crouch with Lebrov, and at the end of the second half, Clint Hill replaced the overdrafted Gunnerson who was struggling to cramp.

At the last moment, in addition to the goalkeepers of both sides, only one George Wood could sprint back and forth. This is also the most important guarantee that the Forest team will not lose a ball in overtime. His physical strength is amazing. McLaren also used the last substitution spot in overtime and planned to make a final fight, but when Cenden, who had just come on the field, planned to break through George Wood with speed, he ran into the same problem as Downing.

He and McLaren thought that Wood, who had run for a hundred minutes, would no longer have the strength to entangle them, but they were wrong, wrong. George Wood is like being put on the court with Zenden. There is no problem with his physical strength and his running speed is not affected. Jean Zenden also stumbled in front of him.

"Perpetual motion machine George Wood!" In the end, Andy Gray simply gave this young man who didn't know what tiredness was such a nickname, which was quite vivid.

Under the leadership of the "perpetual motion machine", the Forest team persisted to the scene they most wanted to see-amid the huge boos from the Middlesbrough fans, the referee finally blew the end of the game for 120 minutes. Whistle!

"The game is over! Of course it's just one hundred and twenty minutes of the game! After a long contest, the two sides entered a penalty shoot-out! This is the moment that coach Tony Dunn wants to watch most, but his team can take a penalty kick. Win against Middlesbrough in China?" Gray was skeptical. The coaches deliberately dragged the game into a situation they like to see, only to find that the result was not what they wanted-there are many such things. "A penalty kick is a very lucky way to decide the outcome..."

Dunn squatted on the turf, holding the list of players waiting for the penalty kick against the Forest team. Around him were players panting. The game finally reached the moment he planned. . He has kept his opponents crazy at the last moments, and he has never been so confident as now-yes, I can win, I can win the first championship trophy since I became a coach! If you want to ask me why, my answer is: No! I just believe that I can win!

Looking at the players Huan sitting next to him and being massaged by the team doctors, Dunn shook the list in his hands, and then said: "I've heard this argument countless times. They think penalty kicks are a way to compete for luck. The winner is just a little better luck than the loser. Now I hope you know how **** this statement is! If the penalty can be determined by luck, why do we have to add it every day for a week? Practice it? Let me tell you what is the factor that determines the final result of the penalty kick-confidence! Will! Just these two! Do you believe that you can win this final battle? We have gone through a difficult challenge of 120 minutes. , We succeeded to the end, is there anyone now doubting that we can't win?"

"No, boss!" Despite being exhausted, the players replied loudly.

"Very good! I know you never doubted it, because you are my players. You are all people who believe that the final victory belongs to us just like me. You are all strong-willed fighters who will never waver! Close your eyes , Think about the road you have traveled so far this season, think about the opponents we have beaten, the dilemma we face... In the worst of the team, we challenged Millwall away, it was a game What kind of game?" Tang En was tempting, and the players who closed their eyes frowned and clenched their fists. The players who had not experienced that game also closed their eyes. Dunn didn't care what they thought of. Anyway, there is no one from Millwall in his team...

"Traffic jams, subway rides, and football hooligans, we won in the end! 7:1! Let all those who laugh at us and humiliate us shut up! The Super League team couldn't stop us, and we reached the final. Before this, a few people thought that we would finally appear at the Millennium Stadium? No one, except ourselves. We worked so hard to defeat one opponent after another, stepping on their bodies to the throne, and now we are away from that seat The shining crown is only one step away! What reason do we have to fall down here? I know you are tired and some people have cramps." Dunn looked at Guna wearing a team jacket while helping the team doctor massage his teammates. Elson, he was bought by former coach Corey Moore, but his professionalism and professional attitude made Dunn choose to continue to trust him. He is very happy that he did not misunderstand him.

"But now... even if we climb, we have to climb it! There is no difference between losing at the last step and losing at the first step. It is a loser! You must win! You must win!" Tang En clenched his fist. Roaring, he gritted his teeth with a hideous face, making everyone feel his desire for victory and championship.

Walker quietly watched Dunn make this special "penalty tactical arrangement". According to common sense, most coaches will desperately decompress the players before such an important penalty shoot-out, telling them that they are usually Mind or put aside the victory or defeat, only Tony, he is trying hard to make everyone understand that only winning is their only way out, let them know that this game must win, give them pressure. Isn't he afraid of the players being overwhelmed by pressure? Still say... he trusts his players more than most coaches.

This sentence suddenly sounded in his mind: "I train them, and they can do it when they need to do it." At that time, Tony's voice was filled with pride, as if he was watching rows of well-trained people. The generals of soldiers passed by him and then rushed to the battlefield. He trains them, he trusts them, and they use practical actions to return his trust.

The boss says we can win, then we will definitely win! The boss says we can do it, then we can do it!

what? You want to ask me the reason? why? I can't tell you because we don't know either, but we just believe him, just as he believed us. This does not need any reason!

Walker thought, this may be the personality charm of the coach. Just like his boss-Brian Clough. Although he rarely shows up on the sidelines of the training court and does not see him several times a week, everyone is willing to follow him, believe his every word, and follow his arrangements. If the boss says: "Guys, we need a victory." Then they will desperately win the game.

And there are fewer and fewer such coaches nowadays... Today is an era when players are showing their personalities. Coaches are becoming more and more unskilled workers. They direct the game but are unable to discipline the team. Dismissed by the boss, as a scapegoat for the team's poor record. Apart from anything else, does the current head coach dare to slap the main players in the team? Dare to beat a player in the stomach because of his poor performance? Dare to risk being late before the UEFA Champions League final to get a player back to the hotel to shave his beard?

No, there will never be such a coach again. Because such people will never do long in today's football environment.

Although Tony didn't dare to slap his players, he didn't dare to let the players shine his shoes. But in some places he really looks like "the boss"! No wonder Bowyer would say that in the future someone will compare Tony with "The Boss".

The head coach who can win the hearts of the players and make them willingly follow you... really enviable!
