Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 173: Volume Two: Nottingham's Sky Penalty·Decisive Battle (Part 2)

Walker saw Dunn stand up and walk towards him. He knew that it was time for him to work, so he took over the list from Dunn and walked to the players to explain to them the list of appearances and some precautions. For the penalty kick finals, Dunn and the entire coaching staff are fully prepared. They have carefully studied the penalty kick videos of everyone in the Middlesbrough team-if he has played in the game-in addition, they have also studied After Middlesbrough’s main goalkeeper, Australian Schwartz’s habit of punting penalties, these were all told to the players during training. Now he just repeats it again to remind them to pay attention.

Dunn had already walked back to the coach's bench to find water and yelled so much, his voice must be very tired. Speaking of it, Tony is now a lot more hoarse than when they first worked together, because of the constant roaring on the sidelines, in the locker room, in the training ground...etc.

When Walker explained the precautions to these players, he could also clearly feel the excitement of the players. They are eager for the championship trophy and honor as much as the coach. Because they are players trained by Tony Dunn.

His work went well, and then the players were called on the court by the referee, and the penalty shoot-out was about to begin. Walker didn't feel even the slightest "tension" from these people, on the contrary, he only had an extremely powerful confidence. He looked at Dun En, who was still pouring water, smiled and said, "Tony, we can win!"

※※※

Wood, who is not good at shooting, was ranked last on the list, eleventh, goalkeeper Darren Ward was even ahead of him. He wanted to stand outside the crowd and watch the penalty shoot-out that seemed unrelated to him, but Wes Morgan pulled him in, and then two hands from different subjects grabbed his shoulders—all Everyone put their arms around the shoulders of their teammates and stood side by side. In this way, they pass on trust and courage to each other, proving that they are an invincible team.

Wood was in the middle of the wall, feeling a little at a loss at first. But he soon felt that in such an environment, he was still awkward with his hands hanging down, so he simply followed the others, holding his hands on the shoulders of his teammates on both sides. Then watched the team's first player, Chris Cummons, stepped forward.

The Cardiff Millennium Stadium, which can accommodate 75,000 spectators, was suddenly silent, and everyone looked nervously at the square in front of the South Stand.

Chris Commons was one of the two best players in the team's penalty shootout practice, and the other was the Gypsy Freddy Eastwood. So Dunn arranged for him and Eastwood to go one after the other, one by one. Chris Commons kicked the first penalty and Freddie Eastwood kicked the fifth.

In addition to excellent penalty kick skills, the free throwers in these two positions must also have the same excellent psychological quality. If they do not drive well at the beginning, it will affect the performance of all teammates who play later. Dunn entrusted Cammons, who had only transferred to the team during the winter transfer period, to the important task, and once again demonstrated his unsuspecting attitude.

Commons carefully placed the football on the penalty spot, then exited the penalty area, keeping his eyes fixed on Middlesbrough goalkeeper Schwartz. He was not afraid to stare at the goalkeeper, because those little tricks were not effective for him now. !

He never regrets coming to the Forest team, and he is unwilling to be a passerby for this team. He wants to write his name on the Forest team's honor roll and become the star of the Forest team. This is the perfect stage!

"The first player for Nottingham Forest to take the penalty was Chris Cammons. He just transferred from Stoke City. The deal cost Tony Dunn’s coach 300,000 pounds. It’s time for everyone to see if these 300,000 flowers are worth it."

"beep!"

"Long distance... a powerful approach! Shot! Goal! Chris Cammons! He withstood the pressure of the first penalty and deceived Schwartz! A powerful volley from the center!"

A huge cheer erupted from the stands where the Forest team fans gathered. Although Dunn was not jumping up with excitement like the people around him, he clenched his fists and waved vigorously.

The Forest team started off well, and now the pressure is on Middlesbrough. McLaren appointed the team’s first person to take the penalty, Mendieta, the best penalty kick in the team, so it seems that when he is replaced, McLaren has already done a penalty kick against the Forest. It's planned.

Mendiete has a lot of experience, and this kind of penalty can't help him, and he is equally easy to make. This time it was Middlesbrough's turn to cheer. After a penalty shootout, they tied with the Forest team 1:1.

Next, the players from both sides did not make any mistakes, and cheers took turns in the south and north stands. After four rounds of penalty kicks, the score between the two sides was 4:4.

For this penalty shootout, Dunn made full preparations, and now it seems that Middlesbrough is not just a soft persimmon.

The fifth player for the Forest team is Freddie Eastwood. If he can't get in, then the pressure will be spread to goalkeeper Darren Ward, which would be dangerous for the Forest team. He must make this penalty so that he can transfer the pressure to his opponent, not his teammate.

"Freddy Eastwood...Three months ago he was just an amateur player selling used cars, but now he is standing in front of the penalty spot at the Millennium Stadium, ready to take the crucial penalty kick. ."

Martin Taylor said what Eastwood was thinking at the moment. Three months ago he didn’t know if he could play professional football again, but now he not only won a professional contract from Nottingham Forest, but he also stood on the field of the League Cup final as a key player to take the penalty. This key penalty kick.

He thought of the future coach Dunn had promised him. Before the semi-finals of the League Cup, he said that the game would definitely be won as evidence that he did not lie. In the end, they won the game and made it to the final.

It sounds like a story, but it really happened. From that game, Eastwood no longer doubted the words of the head coach. He always seemed to have a mysterious power that could really see the future.

He said: "We can win! We can definitely win!"

Then... we can really win, we can definitely win!

Dunn didn't know what Eastwood was thinking now. He stared at the back of the gypsy, clenching his fists. The body even trembled involuntarily. This is the critical moment, his heartbeat is getting faster and faster... Damn it! Why doesn't the referee blow the whistle? !

When Dunn was complaining, the referee finally blew the whistle to allow the penalty. Eastwood, who was standing in front of the ball, made a two-step run-up and then volleyed his leg!

Schwartz judged the right direction, but Eastwood shot more tricky than he thought! The football sticks to the turf, wipes the post and rolls into the net!

"Beautiful! Dead corner! Freddy Eastwood! He scored the key goal!" Andy Gray cried, louder than him is the Forest team fans at the Millennium Stadium. This is a goal that can release inner emotions. Eastwood also knows this well. After the goal, he leaned back and roared, which caused the fans of the Forest team to follow suit in the stands. People looked up to the sky and howled at the same time. That momentum...enough to shock any opponent!

Unlike the excited players and fans, even though Dunn was very, very nervous before the goal. But when Eastwood really kicked the football in, he still just slammed his fists hard, without exaggerating performance. Because he knows that there is another person in Middlesbrough... the game is not over yet, if the opponent also scores, the penalty kick will continue, but the rule becomes one goal, which is even more cruel, and the psychology of both players The pressure is also greater.

Now to his advantage, Eastwood withstood the pressure of the fifth freeman and kicked the ball into the opponent's gate. Now under great pressure, he has become the last player to play in Middlesbrough-Massimo Macaroni.

The Italians... they are never good at penalties...

The Forest fans made a loud noise, hoping to put more pressure on Macaroni. But can they do it?

This is the crucial moment...This is the moment when the fate is truly determined, although the key to the decision is not in the hands of Dunn himself. So... this is when he is most nervous. He felt that time had stagnated, and all the sounds had disappeared, only the heartbeat, only the heartbeat reminded him that he was still alive, not in a void. And this heartbeat is getting faster and faster, almost connecting into one piece, making him unable to withstand the huge pressure from the left chest cavity.

He can't even complain about the opponent's delay in kicking, because he is afraid that with a mouth, it will explode because of pressure!

Will this be my first championship? Will this be the beginning of a road full of glory and trophies? Is this... my own destiny?

Suddenly a crisp whistle sound came, in his ears, it seemed like a natural sound. Then he saw Macaroni, after sprinting quickly, volleyed the football...to the sky! ! Cross the beam! ! Straight-fly-watch-stage! ! !

The stadium that seemed to be quiet just now seemed to be detonated like a gunpowder keg, and the huge cheers broke out in an instant, overwhelmingly attacking Dun En.

"boom--"

"Macaroni shot this penalty! The Nottingham Forest team from the First Division won the championship! They were the Champions of the English League Cup from 03 to 04! Fourteen years later, this Red Forest used what they once did best The way back to our vision! Welcome back, Nottingham Forest! Congratulations, Champions League Cup!!"
