Godfather Of Champions

"Pick shot! Beautiful-the ball scored!" Accompanied by the excited voice of the commentator on the TV, Kenny Burns' forest bar rang even more cheers.

"Good job, Gipsy Rooney!"

"Let them see how good we are!"

"Woo--"

"Cheers to this beautiful goal!"

The fans huddled together, and the golden liquor was thrown to the ceiling. Kenny Burns smiled while watching the excitement of the fans.

After a few glances, he turned his gaze back on the TV, through the TV screen, to the Nou Camp Stadium.

The players of the Forest team are celebrating in the way of stacking Arhats-this is their favorite way of celebrating. Of course, Dunn has strictly forbidden to score and presses the head coach under him to celebrate.

※※※

At the Camp Nou stadium, after a short period of silence, the home team fans all booed a huge boo, which suppressed the cheers of the Forest team fans just now.

But the players of the Forest team were not affected by the boos of the home team fans. They brazenly celebrated at the opposing team's home court.

In the first ten minutes, it was a good time to lead Barcelona by one goal without being optimistic!

Dunn also stood up after the team scored and waved his fists continuously to demonstrate to the Barcelona fans.

Are you not known as the "Dream Team Two"? Let me tell you today, why you can only be "Dream II" instead of "Dream Team"!

The referee intervened and finally ended the extremely excited celebration of the forest team players. The people in Barcelona have placed the football at the midpoint and are a little impatient.

The TV broadcast closely followed Eastwood, who had scored a goal, and the narrator was introducing the player with a special experience to the audience: "...Eastwood was once kicked by George Wood, the current captain of Nottingham Forest. He broke his leg and was reduced to the point where he could only play in the amateur league. In the end Tony Dunn found him and gave him a chance to play professional league again...Although he has been injured repeatedly in recent years, we can see that as long as On the field, he can maintain a stable goal. In Nottingham, he is known as the "Rooney of the Gypsy". Unfortunately, he does not represent England, he represents Wales..."

Just now when the players rushed to celebrate Eastwood’s goal, only goalkeeper Van der Sar and George Wood stopped in their original positions. The former was because of the distance, and the latter was because of...well, Some well-known reasons.

When the celebrating crowd dispersed, George Wood was already standing in his place in the second half, waiting for the opponent to kick-off. Eastwood was also running backwards, but instead of standing on the center line like Bendtner, he ran straight to George Wood, who was standing behind, and stretched out his hand.

The two said nothing, and gave each other a high five, and Eastwood ran away again. Eastwood's attitude towards George Wood was much better than before, but the two most intimate actions were limited to this. They still don't talk to each other, make jokes, or say hello when they meet. After getting off the court, maybe even the action of high-fiving won't happen again.

Dunn only smiled when he saw this scene below. It is better to give high fives than to always cross your eyebrows.

※※※

The game restarted and Barcelona kicked off. Losing the ball so quickly, somewhat beyond Rijkaard's expectations, Nottingham Forest is more tenacious than he thought.

There has been a significant change between this team and the Nottingham Forest last year, not only in the mental outlook, but also in the real strength-I have to admit that the Nottingham Forest in front of us is stronger.

And... George Wood is so active that no one can think of it. All the intelligence before the game said that this man is a "defensive genius, offensive idiot." But looking at the goal just now, can the "offensive idiot" accurately find such a passing route in high-speed running and pass the ball where he wants to pass it?

Rijkaard also came from a midfielder when he was a player, and he was the kind of midfielder with both offense and defense. He saw some of himself on the ball just now.

Hasn't Barcelona been lacking a defensive midfielder? Why not consider buying the number 13 in front of you? If you train yourself carefully, maybe you can become the second Rijkaard...

The Dutch coach made up his mind that when the game is over, no matter what the result is, he will submit an application to the club, hoping that senior management can buy George Wood at all costs. With him, Barcelona's real dominance will not be a problem.

Look at the current Nottingham Forest. With George Wood on the court, Ribery, Ashley Young, Bendtner, Eastwood and others can attack boldly. Without Wood? Everyone has to bear the dual task of offense and defense.

If your team has such a person, Ronaldinho, Xavi, Iniesta, Eto'o, Messi... and others can put all their energy into the offense. Barcelona's offense is already strong, and if you go all out, I believe there will be no team that can resist.

All of the above can only be said to be "good wishes". He still has to take back his mind and put his mind on the game.

What if George Wood’s organization of the offense was not luck, but his true strength? How should Barcelona respond? Send someone to mark? Don't be kidding, there are only three players in the Barcelona midfield. Even if the two wingers withdraw and become five, how many are defending?

Barcelona's midfield configuration for this game is Iniesta and Deco, as well as Xavi. Three strikers Eto'o, Messi and Ronaldinho.

None of these six people specialize in defense.

Rijkaard originally planned to crush Nottingham Forest by attack at home, but he did not expect that the resilience of the Forest team far exceeded his expectations. Not only did he not be crushed, but he bounced for himself.

Now the team is one goal behind, as the head coach, Rijkaard must make a choice. Is it to strengthen the defense or continue to attack?

This multiple-choice question only stayed in the mind of the Dutch for a few seconds, and the answer came out without any suspense. How can the Dutch who advocating attack and the representative of artistic football Barcelona be forced to defend because of one person at his home court?

This is not the style of me and my team.

Rijkaard got up from his seat, walked to the sidelines to whistle to attract the attention of all players, and then used gestures to tell the players on the Barcelona field-don't take this conceded goal to heart, continue to attack!

This is also an instruction in line with the ideas of the Barcelona players on the field. Let them defend and they don't know how to defend... Six offensive players, four defenders and a goalkeeper, how to defend?

The best defense is offense, and only with a stronger offense can the disadvantage be recovered.

Barcelona re-launched wave after wave of rapid offensive against Nottingham Forest. After taking the lead, Nottingham Forest also temporarily chose to recover, and decided to defend for this period of time, and then counterattack after Barcelona's momentum was exhausted.

The ancient Chinese book "The Ten Years of Zuo Zhuan. Zhuang Gong" says: Husband fighting, courage. Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

Dunn knows that this principle can also be applied to the football field. When the opponent is in the limelight, don't face it, but take the initiative to avoid it. After the opponent's momentum is exhausted, then suddenly attack, it will be a miraculous effect.

Not only this game, but also other times, even during training, when watching game video after the game, Dunn would warn his players this way. Why do I sometimes find that I have just scored a goal, and the opponent has recovered a goal. Just because the opponent was eager to equalize after losing the ball, morale did not immediately drop, but there was a short-term increase. If at this time we can't calm down, treat it calmly, and think that the morale of the other party must be low, take this opportunity to score another goal and press it heavily... then it would be dangerous.

When will the morale of the opponent drop? When the opponent finds that his counterattack has not received any results, and the opponent's defense is solid and tenacious makes them desperate, morale will drop.

It is precisely because Dunn has instilled this kind of thinking into his players more than once, so after leading Barcelona, ​​the Forest team has a very unified mind and immediately reclaimed the defense. George Wood, who shined in the offense just now, has become the most eye-catching person in the defense this time.

※※※

Ronaldinho faced George Wood and chose to pass. But after he passed the ball, he found that his current idea was somewhat useless. Nottingham Forest, who was also facing Barcelona just now, suddenly chose to defend firmly after taking the lead-yes, it was defending, completely defending. The forest team’s goal was like an iron ring, crowded and crowded. Looking around, it was all people, all legs. It is very difficult for him to accurately deliver the football to his teammates.

Sure enough, the pass was kicked by Pikwe.

Barcelona has to reorganize the offense.

Ronaldinho was surprised at how a team could make such a huge tactical change in such a short period of time. At the same time, he was also surprised at why this team can resolutely give up offensive and turn to full defense after taking the lead... …

He can't understand this tactical change. Is the head coach of Nottingham Forest really, as rumored, is a total conservative? Did he think that one ball would make them laugh to the end and become a winner?

Ronaldinho clenched his fists.

The football was passed to the Brazilians again. Because of the previous two experiences, George Wood thought Ronaldinho would pass the ball at the first time, so he didn't force it immediately.

But this time, he was wrong.

Ronaldinho knows that there are people in front of him, and passing the ball is useless. Long shots are generally used to break dense defenses because this method is the simplest. In fact, there is another way, and that is personal breakthrough. Although there are a lot of people, as long as Yi Gao is bold, he can take the ball and make a **** way in the crowd.

Ronaldinho had full confidence in his skills. He seized the moment that George Wood had neglected, and suddenly accelerated his change of direction and rushed from Wood's side!

George Wood hurriedly stepped forward to defend, but Ronaldinho swung it with a very hidden spike. After Wood, no matter how many people in front of him, Brazil's football elves are not afraid.

His upper body flickered, causing Arteta to lose his correct judgment and his center of gravity fell. Ronaldinho immediately pulled the football past Arteta, and then faced the menacing Pique, who suddenly came in a very small space to divide the ball!

Pique didn’t expect Ronaldinho to be in the penalty area, there were people around him, and it was impossible to speed up the sprint. He dared to use the ball to pass. He was stunned and stared at him. Nardinho walked around from his other side.

"Pretty! Pretty... he went into the goal area, and Van der Sar attacked! Shot—"

Ronaldinho wanted to take a shot, but Van der Sar had already prepared. Although his body fell to the ground, his right hand was raised high. The football shot by Ronaldinho happened to hit his hand and was shot out of the bottom line by him!

"...It's a pity! We didn't score a goal. Van der Sar attacked in time to resolve the danger in front of the Forest team! Although we did not score, Ronaldinho gave us a wonderful personal breakthrough. In the face of the dense defense of Nottingham Forest, what other way to break apart from long shots? That is the Brazilian!"

The live TV gave Ronaldinho a back, he just got up from the ground and watched the football that had fallen outside the bottom line.

"One person disintegrated almost the entire defense line of the Forest team. In such a small place in the penalty area, I would dare to pass the ball! If it were not for him, it would be difficult for others to do it! It's just a pity... Van der Sar's save is the same. Wonderful. Beautiful offense, beautiful defense! From the current point of view, as Tony Dunn said before the game, this is a wonderful game!"

After Van der Sar got up from the ground, he slapped his big hands and shouted loudly: "Concentrate! Don't let him break through so easily! George!" He was calling Wood's name.

Wood looked back at him.

Van der Sar crossed his hands: "Keep him out!"

Wood nodded. It was caused by his negligence just now, and he had nothing to say.

Albertini and Dunn outside the court looked at each other, left their seats, walked to the side of the court, curled their hands into a trumpet, and shouted inside: "George! Don't leave him a meter! Stick to him!" He even did it. Made a pulling action.

Ronaldinho's sudden outburst made the Forest team nervous. At this time, they woke up, standing in front of them was the champion of the previous Champions League, the world footballer, and the current world's number one midfielder. He has the ability to change a game alone, he is not an ordinary football star, he is a real...superstar.

Arteta saw that everyone seemed to be reminding Wood to pay attention to defense, and was a bit harsh. He ran up to comfort his midfield partner: "Don't take it to heart, George. That person is not an ordinary person, he is very strong, and he was beaten once by him. It's nothing, as long as you don't lose the ball..."

He found that Wood didn't seem to be listening to himself, his eyes were always fixed on Ronaldinho, who ran to the corner flag area to prepare for a corner kick.

Just when he thought he was wasting his saliva, Wood suddenly turned his head and asked: "Is he strong?"

Arteta almost didn't react. He wanted to roll his eyes to Wood: "Are you really a professional player? You don't even know if Ronaldinho is strong or not? He is the best player in the world now... …Although a little jealous, I must say so-he is very strong, very strong."

Wood nodded when he heard Arteta say this.

"I can rest assured that."

"what?"

"Not strong enough, it's boring to win." After saying this, Wood ran into the penalty area and prepared to defend a corner kick.

Arteta stayed in place like a fool, looking at Wood's back. Until Van der Sar yelled his name in front of the door: "Are you stupid, Mikel! Come back to the defense! What are you doing outside?"

Arteta, who ran back, was still staring at Wood, completely not paying attention to the situation around him. What Wood said to him just now really frightened him-I hope the opponent is as strong as possible, but I don't worry about whether I can defeat such a strong enemy... Is this still human?

He saw Wood leaping high in the crowd, pressing Barcelona's Mexican defender Marcos and pushing the football out. The people around me poured out like a tide, and a crisis was lifted...
