Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 520: Volume 4 The stormy forest

The commentator said "Long time no see, the offensive players of the Forest team" is not an exaggeration at all. The offensive players of the Forest team have indeed not appeared in the eyes of TV cameras and TV audiences for a long time.

Since they scored the Barcelona goal, they have been pressured by Barcelona. The few offenses either ended in no time or were abandoned halfway. Bendtner has to come back to participate in the defense, not to mention the overall offense.

Now that the Forest team is launching another offense, will the results this time be the same as the previous times?

unknown.

"Ribery received the ball and unloaded it beautifully! Eastwood is preparing to take it..."

Of course Ribery saw Eastwood. There are two different feelings in the middle and on the wing. His job on the wing is very simple: break through the opponent and then cross. But in the middle, he has more choices. It is certainly a choice to come up to meet Eastwood, but he can't pass it like that...

why?

Because he saw Eastwood, the Barcelona players also saw Eastwood who retraced.

Puyol is following Eastwood. If you pass the ball, it will be difficult for Eastwood to do. With his back to the offensive direction, Puyol can hardly turn around. This is an irresponsible pass, but also a pass that meets Barcelona's hopes.

Can’t pass like this. Ribery tilted his head. He saw Ashley Young running diagonally from the side to the center. This is one way.

Just when the two were about to cross, Ribery passed the football to Ashley Young who was running diagonally, and then he ran to the right side without the ball. He and Ashley Young finished once. Turn left and right.

Barcelona's defense is quickly retreating, but the frontline players are not very quick to return to defense. After all, they are all offensive players, not defensive players. They are required to return to defense immediately after losing the ball... Some strong people are difficult.

The Barcelona players thought that Ashley Young would continue to lead to the left after receiving the ball. He didn't expect that he had just ran two times. He turned around and passed the football to Frank Ribery.

Ribery did not continue to dribble to the right, but adjusted his direction while receiving the ball, facing Barcelona's goal head-on!

Due to the cross-switching between him and Ashley Young, there was no one around him to guard for the time being. He did not let go of this opportunity and suddenly took a long shot before Marcos came up!

"High quality long shots!"

The football screamed, Valdez did not dare to take it, so he could only stand up and hit the ball with his fists.

"In most cases, Ribery feels like a winger who relies on speed and technique to break through the wing and then crosses. This long shot reminds us that he is also the highest score in a single season. The scorer of nine goals!"

That's right, Ribery's most successful season in the Premier League was nine goals. That was his first season in the Premier League. It was also that season. His superb speed, sharp breakthroughs, and excellent scoring ability made him the best foreign aid of the season.

The second season still had an outstanding performance, but in the third season, after his opponents studied his routine, his threat was no longer as great as before. Coupled with this season that Dunn bought Petrov who has similar characteristics to him, many people think that Ribery's once indestructible main position in the Forest team is gradually shaking.

In this game, Petrov was sitting on the bench watching the game. Everyone is speculating whether Ribery's performance is bad and he will be replaced soon.

It's time to make changes.

The ball played by Valdes was falling to the left side of the field. Ashley Young did not hesitate to pass after receiving it. Unfortunately, he was not used to his left foot here. The quality of the cross was not high and was praised by the defense. Brota headed out.

Eastwood was defeated in the fight with Puyol, and the Barcelona captain pushed the football forward hard, hoping to get Deco or Harvey back. The two of them are very close, no matter who receives the ball, it's like a double insurance.

Deco has even prepared for a chest stop.

"George Wood!" As the commentator exclaimed, Deco, who was ready to move, saw a dark figure suddenly appearing beside him from behind, and it appeared from the air...

George Wood flew in the air, leaning back, pushing the football back hard with his waist and abdomen.

Deco and Xavi both ran away, and the football returned to the Barcelona half.

This time, Eastwood received the football, not Puyol.

After receiving the ball, Eastwood did not turn around, but directly passed back to Mikel Arteta who had been inserted.

Nottingham Forest's offense has been fully rolled out.

Dunn’s requirement for the team is to retreat quickly and attack quickly. In short, one word—fast!

This was well reflected in this game.

The Forest team's offense went up quickly. After Arteta received the football, he was surrounded by routes that could pass the ball. Whether it's to Ribery or Ashley Young, or Eastwood, Bentner, even George Wood not far behind, and Gareth Bale who is plugging in, he can. pass.

The biggest difference between Nottingham Forest and Barcelona is that the Forest team does not talk about the situation. If there is the most direct pass route, it must be chosen.

Arteta looked at the surroundings and decisively passed the football to the core of the team in the second half-Frank Ribery.

Ribery was already on the right when he received the ball. Zambrotta thought Ribery would break through from the wing. The switch between him and Ashley Young looked like an ordinary left-right crossover. That's it.

Ribery made a false move of a straight line breakthrough, and deceived Zambrotta-he did not really break directly, but suddenly moved the football to the center while Zambrotta shifted the center of gravity back. Dial, cut in!

The left foot will cut from the right to the center. What is the most likely and best thing to do?

"Watch out for his shots!" Valdes shouted.

That's right, it's a direct long shot with a good foot.

As if to cooperate with Valdes, Ribery stretched his left leg in the lateral movement, and he wanted to shoot!

Marcos desperately rushed to block Ribery's long-range shot, completely forgetting the situation behind him.

Ribery can see clearly, he didn't shoot, it was just a fake action to pull out Barcelona's defense line. Marcos stepped forward, and there was a gap in Barcelona's original defense.

The Frenchman's legs came down and turned into a push, and the football quickly rolled from Marcos into the penalty area.

"Pretty straight plug!"

It's really beautiful. Before Ribery passed the ball, Bendtner had already moved diagonally to the empty space. With the ball to the person, Bendtner kicked and shot without a big angle!

If it weren't for Valdés to react quickly and move in time to block Bendtner's shot angle, the pass and run in front of the penalty area may have really scored.

The football hit Valdez's leg and flew out of the bottom line.

There was a huge inhalation sound from the stands at Camp Nou, and the Barcelona fans were frightened.

After seeing Bendtner and Ribery making a wonderful cooperation, Dunn had already stood up from his seat, clenched his fists, and waited for the moment when he raised his arms to celebrate the goal. Na's shot was blocked by Valdes.

The emotional ups and downs made him almost unable to control his body, jumped up abruptly, knelt down on one knee, and hit the ground with a punch. "Such a good opportunity... I didn't make it! I didn't make it!"

He was still chattering like this when he got up and walked back to the coaching bench.

"At least we saw a good news-Ribery's performance is very good." Chris Lak comforted him.

Tang nodded beside: "It's better than we thought."

"But it's not enough..." Dunn murmured, "We need to put more pressure on Barcelona." After that, he turned back, took a deep breath after standing on the sidelines, and then shouted: " George! Rush up faster when attacking! If I can't run, I'll replace you!"

※※※

"Nottingham Forest's offense has improved. This is really a blessing for our neutral audience. The scene is beautiful, and the offensives of both sides are of quality. Now the suspense is...Who will be the first to break the current embarrassing deadlock?"

The Forest's corner kick was taken out by Tulam, and Arteta, who was ambushing outside, tried a direct long shot, but it went high. This allowed Dun Enqi to shoot his thigh straight off the court. In the face of this situation, he didn't want to see his players act too hastily. He would rather see Arteta choose to unload the ball just now and reorganize the attack instead of Kick the ball towards the stands.

After Barcelona sent the goal kick, they continued to attack the forest team's gate. The situation on the field was deadlocked. It seemed that everyone had a chance, but every opportunity always passed them by. Fate seems to be teasing the mood of the fans of the two teams, sometimes making them nervous, sometimes letting them breathe, sometimes exciting them, and sometimes frustrating them.

Twenty minutes passed in the second half in such a stalemate.

Dunn did not change, he was waiting for the opportunity. He believes that Rijkaard will not be willing to score a point at the Nou Camp, and will definitely start to send offensive players at the last moment, when that time is his own opportunity.

In the eyes of everyone, Dunn should be very satisfied with this situation. In fact, his heart and Rijkaard's thoughts are exactly the same-failure is not accepted, and draw is also not accepted!

Seventy-three minutes into the game, Rijkaard finally couldn't sit still, he wanted to make adjustments first.

Brazilian full-back Beletti replaced Thuram. This is not a defensive adjustment. Beletti has a very good assist ability. Rijkaard replaced him to strengthen Barcelona's wing attack.

Seeing this substitution, Dunn also stood up from his seat and asked Chris Lak to call back Van Nistelrooy who was warming up. Bendtner was still a little bit close. He now needs an experienced and well-conscious world. Class center. To be clear, Dunn needs a Terminator.

Compared with Van Nistelrooy, Bentner is still inferior.

After calling Van Nistelrooy to his side, Dunn first looked up and observed his expression, nothing unusual.

"I only have one request." Dunn raised his index finger and said to the Dutch shooter, "Try my best to score goals."

Van Nistelrooy nodded. He likes this. He is an experienced shooter. If a head coach talks endlessly in his ears, he will only feel that he is underestimated and he has not received the trust he deserves.

"Go ahead and **** them!"

Van Nistelrooy was replaced, Bendtner ran down quickly, Dunn grabbed him and said to him: "You did a good job, Nicky."

"Thank you, boss, but I didn't have the ball just now..."

Dunn interrupted Bendtner's self-blame with a smile: "No matter how good a striker is, it is impossible to guarantee a goal every time he shoots. If you are not reconciled, go back to training and practice shooting!"

※※※

"Both sides have made offensive adjustments. It seems that in the final moments of the game, the two teams are not reconciled to this 1:1 draw. This is really exciting!"

After Dunn yelled at Wood, Wood really got in faster and more determined when attacking. Of course, this way he naturally has more space behind him for Barcelona's offense to participate.

How to balance offense and defense has always been a big problem for the coaches and players of each team, and Dunn did not expect Wood to have any outstanding performance on this. Strengthening the offense will inevitably weaken the defense, and the price of a solid defense is to sacrifice a lot of opportunities to counterattack.

This should be a multiple choice question that the head coach only needs to do.

Dunn chose to attack with twenty minutes before the end of the game.

Van Nistelrooy’s presence is an obvious sign.

The Dutchman is more experienced and has better ability to grab points in front of goal than Bendtner, coupled with the assistance of Eastwood and Ribery... It seems that Dunn is determined to win this game.

The consequence of this is... Wood relaxed his mark on Ronaldinho, and Barcelona will also have many opportunities for attack.

Now it's up to who can catch it one step ahead...

※※※

After Ronaldinho got rid of George Wood's defense, he passed the football to Eto'o under interference. Eto'o played very depressed in this game. His speed did not have much room for the forest team's dense defense. After receiving the football, he can only try more shots or pass the ball.

For shooting, Dunn asked the defense to push Eto'o out of the penalty area before the game. In short, the farther from the goal the better, Eto'o can only rely more on long shots now. He now found that the forest team's defense seemed to be a little loose, and he planned to rush in directly!

With a flexible and quick start to change direction, Eto'o buckled Kompany who was defending him, intending to squeeze through the crowd. Just when he was about to succeed, Piquet rushed to fill the gap.

He kicked the football with a big foot before Eto'o, and then collided with an African cheetah that could not stop the car, and both fell to the ground at the same time. There was a deafening boo in the stands again. The Barcelona fans naturally thought that this should be another penalty, but the referee did not judge and signaled the game to continue.

Pikwe’s kick reached Ashley Young’s feet. He did not pass forward because Barcelona’s press came up in time. When he adjusted the football, there was no room for forward. He can only protect the ball from the wing, either waiting for his teammates to come up to support, or kicking the football on the Barcelona players, popping out of the sideline, and catching an out-of-bounds ball.

To be honest, the second option can only be a helpless move, because once that means Barcelona's defense on the spot has been successful. They prevented a fast break by the Forest team.

The first choice was a bit difficult. Zimbanda wanted to take it up, but he was followed closely by Eto'o. Where is Arteta? The location is not so good, I can't confirm where he is.

"Here!" Just when Ashley Young was about to make a throw-in, he heard the captain's voice.

As soon as he looked up, George Wood appeared in front of him, and there was no one beside him. The Barcelona players obviously did not expect that George Wood would suddenly appear here and take the initiative to participate in the attack. Ashley Young didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately passed the football, then he turned around and continued to run forward from the outside of the stadium. He thought so-he ran out quickly so that Wood could pass the ball to himself for a penetrating two-on-one! After all, after more than half a season of personal experience in training and competition, Ashley Young is still aware of Wood's ability to pass long, knowing that this is the most likely way to tear Barcelona's defense.

Because of his accelerated running, he ripped off Barcelona's Deco, and the Barcelona players also thought that Wood would choose to pass the ball in the first time, just to play to the advantage of Ashley Young's speed. Everyone was preventing Wood from passing, but Wood unexpectedly chose to take the ball by himself!

Wood's dribbling speed is not fast, but steady. Deco ran after Ashley Young for a while, and found that Wood had no intention of passing the ball, and then turned back to defend George Wood.

Wood did not continue to dribble the ball facing Deco. Instead, he passed the football to Mikel Arteta, who ran up with him, and Arteta passed the football to Gareth who followed up from the left back. . Bale, the attention of the Barcelona players followed football to the wing. Bell suddenly made a diagonal pass!

The football passed between the players on both sides, no one intercepted it, and finally fell at the feet of Wood!

He did not go back after passing the ball, but continued to take it forward. Bell saw him and sent the football over.

At this time, Wood is only ten meters away from the top of the arc of Barcelona's penalty area. It is not easy to run this distance. Barcelona erected a barrier here to prevent the attack of Nottingham Forest.

Puyol commanded the team's defense to collectively push up offside. As long as Wood passes forward, either the two forwards of the Forest will be offside or nobody will receive it.

At the same time, Deco continued to approach Wood, intending to take the opportunity to steal.

Pass the ball or bring it yourself?

Looking at the empty space in front of the blockbuster, Wood suddenly kicked up and sent the football to the right.

There was also no one there now, but a second later, there was a galloping figure in the TV camera, Ashley Young!

He had been running since, but when he found that Wood hadn't passed the ball to him, he stopped. Later, when he saw Wood catching the ball for the second time and was blocked by Barcelona's offside, he keenly discovered the neglected side corridor. Ashley Young did not know whether George Wood would see this empty corridor, or whether he would pass the football to him when he ran up to Wood.

But if you run, it's just an empty run at best. If you don't run, you won't have any chance. He chose high-speed forward insertion.

This is not an offensive routine that has been repeatedly practiced in training. Wood did not turn his head to see exactly where Ashley Young was, but he delivered the football exactly there and sent it to Ashley Young's feet.

"How did he see it?" The narrator's exclamation was also Rijkaard's question.

Everyone is paying attention to Wood, who is holding the ball in the middle. Barcelona's defense also unconsciously shrinks to the middle, intending to completely block this bad offensive and bad midfielder.

Unexpectedly, Wood suddenly passed a ball that was not in his field of vision, and with a stab, it tore Barcelona's defense.

After Ashley Young received the ball from the wing, there was a large blank area in front of him. He adjusted the football diagonally and rushed to the penalty area with the ball.

Zambrotta desperately returned to the defense, not looking hopeless to stop Ashley Young before he entered the danger zone.

Yang Jian kicked up, no matter whether he was going to cross or shoot, Zambrotta strode up and stretched his foot to block.

This is not a shot, but it is not an ordinary cross. Ashley Young passed the football to his diagonal, near the penalty spot.

Neither Eastwood nor Ribery received the ball in front of the goal, but Van Nistelrooy’s professional sensitivity made him run to the goal and then suddenly withdrew. He just received the ball without hesitation. Glance!

Valdez's response speed is amazing. Although he is usually criticized a lot, his performance at this moment is amazing.

When he ran to block the close corner and saw the football pass back, he immediately turned and ran towards the goal center. Halfway through, he saw Van Nistelrooy kicking the goal. Valdez's body immediately rose into the air and pounced on the football.

He pounced on football!

Van Nistelrooy's shot didn't make it!

The players of the Forest team originally intended to raise their hands to cheer for the goal, but this time they replaced it with the cheers of the Barcelona fans in the stands behind the goal.

They were about to chant the name of Valdés, but the first syllable had just been exported, and the situation in front of the door suddenly changed.

For the first time, Valdes tried very hard to catch the football. He had done his best. He didn't have the energy to shoot the football further. The football fell in front of the goal, and Valdes himself had fallen to the ground. Struggling to stand up again, he has smelled a dangerous smell.

The football is right in front of my eyes, from my palm... about one palm distance, and unfortunately, the danger happens to be one palm distance.

Ribery was originally going to rush in to grab the first point. He didn't expect Ashley Young to pass it to Van Nistelrooy behind him. He thought he was going to run for nothing, but he didn't expect Van Nistelrooy. Rui's shot did not go in, but was saved by Valdes. What I didn't expect was that the saved ball happened to land not far in front of his feet!

God-given opportunity!

Ribery, who was about to shoot, suddenly felt a strong pull coming from behind him, trying to pull him to the ground. Obviously, this was done by Barcelona defender Marcos who was leaning behind him.

Valdes is also trying to get up from the ground, intending to hold the football again.

How can you get what you want? !

Ribery did not fight each other in front of the goal line with Marcos, and now he has no time to compare who is stronger. He took advantage of Marcosra's own strength to throw his body out, so as to free his feet and use them to do more important things, such as... twisting and shooting!

Valdes saw that his palm was approaching the football, perhaps only half a palm of his hand. But in the next moment, the football was gone, only a scrap of grass was raised.

"Frank Ribery! He scored! He fell in front of Barcelona with Marcos, fouled? No, no foul! The referee signaled that the goal was valid! Nottingham Forest took the lead for the second time at Camp Nou Barcelona! Look at the excitement of Tony Dunn on the sidelines, ha, it's as if he was scoring a goal! The Nottingham Forest is like a dense fog-shrouded, dangerous jungle, trapping Barcelona inside. Rijka Can the German team rush out? They don’t have much time, there are still 17 minutes!"

In one shot, Dunn threw his fists to the sky, open his mouth and roared. A little further away, Rijkaard stood on the sidelines with his hands around his chest, and his lower lip was bitten, his face solemn.

The background for these two people is the blurred Nou Camp stand, like a rough red and blue ocean. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
