Godfather Of Champions

During the intermission, whether in the dressing room, in the stadium stands, beer stalls outside, in the bar, in the taxi...Everyone was enthusiastically discussing George Wood’s goal to equalize the score. .

Even the most loyal Forest fans can't believe that their captain who has never shot can score such a light goal-if he scored a powerful volley, he might not be so shocked.

Dunn stood at the door of the locker room and did not interfere with the players discussing Wood's goal. He was happy to see everyone like this. Because he was also excited about that goal.

George Wood was sitting in the middle like a prisoner, surrounded by people on three and three floors. The funny Ribery also acted as a microphone with a water bottle, imitating the reporter's impression of Wood's goal. Everyone was so happy, although the score was still 1:1, it seemed that no one thought this game would lose.

When everyone was about to make a noise, he returned to his position and waited for Dunn to arrange the second half tactics.

Dunn didn't talk nonsense with them either, and he didn't have much time, so he started talking directly.

While everyone was arguing just now, he had already drawn the formation of both sides of the game on the tactical board.

Now he points to the tactical board to analyze everyone.

"We lost the ball in the first half mainly because after the two full-backs assisted, the double midfielder needed to help defend the sideline, so we gave up the mid lane. After I adjusted, although the defense line was stable, the offensive power was weak. This way. No. Manchester City is the away team and they can be content even if they take a point here. We are the home team, and a draw is a failure. So in the second half, we still have to strengthen the attack. The full back still needs assists. But we have to adjust... "

In the Manchester City locker room, although George Wood's goal was unexpected and the lead turned into a tie, the teammates congratulated Bendtner who scored a goal.

But Bendtner himself was not happy. His limelight caused George Wood to **** the ball. The two goals he said are still one goal short. What congratulations...

He sat on the stool unhappy, listening to Mark Hughes arranging the second half tactics absent-mindedly.

Hughes' tactics were the same as in the first half, either pretending to attack the wing and actually attacking the center; or pretending to attack the center and actually attacking the wing. He repeatedly emphasized one word-patience.

"We have to have enough patience, because the home game is Nottingham Forest. I don't believe Tony Dunn hopes that this game will end in a tie. As time goes by, they will definitely come out and attack. That was ours then. Opportunity. Before, you just have to be patient and wait for them to make mistakes on their own. Taking a step back... even a tie is not an unacceptable result..."

Bendtner frowned. The coach thinks a draw is acceptable, but he absolutely cannot accept it. He has only completed one goal of two goals. He has already boasted about Haikou before the game. Everyone who has been hyped by the media knows that if he only scores one goal in the end, those people don't know how to laugh at him. What's more, Tony Dunn doesn't accept the draw, should I accept it?

This is how Bendtner spent the fifteen minutes of the intermission.

※※※

At the beginning of the second half, Manchester City put on a defensive posture, hoping that Nottingham Forest will attack. If the Forest team does not attack, their offense will be no gap.

Nottingham Forest really attacked as they wanted.

Mark Hughes saw the Forest full back join the offense. It's a pity that he didn't be happy for long, because he discovered that Dunn had made very careful arrangements and arrangements for how to defend.

In the first half, Nottingham Forest's full-back assists were on the left and right sides together, which looked mighty, layered and threatening. But also because there are large spaces on both sides that can be used, the double midfielders need to guard one side. The middle road is empty.

Dunn changed in the second half. The full-back was still actively assisting, but two full-backs were not allowed to play at the same time. When Bell goes up to assist, Rafinha must be behind, so that Thiago stays in the middle, and George Wood goes to fill the position after Bell goes up. Rafinha stepped forward to assist, Bale withdrew, Wood defended in the middle, and Thiago went to make a temporary cameo as a full-back.

No matter where you go up, there will be no shortage of people in the back line, and there are no obvious loopholes.

Hughes, who understood it, yelled at Dunn in his heart for defense and defense...

But what can he do?

This move really blocked all the offensive routes of Manchester City. It is almost impossible to fight back and score a goal quickly. Now Manchester City have two options. One is to defend until the end of the game and not let the Forest team score. The two sides shake hands 1:1 and make a draw. The second is to go out and fight the forest team head-on, relying on positional battles to slowly look for opportunities.

Mark Hughes is inclined to the former, he is afraid that the forest team will counterattack to find an opportunity...

But Bendtner on the court obviously didn't think so.

※※※

Bendtner wanted to score a goal. He kept raising his hands in the front court to signal his teammates to pass the ball.

But most of the time he is like an island in the vast ocean, without a teammate around him. Nottingham Forest's offensive was fierce, and Manchester City's players had to withdraw from the defense. Can Bendtner stay on the court or did Hughes specifically ask him to do this at halftime-Hughes originally wanted to fight the Forest team's counterattack.

Bendtner is a center. He needs strong support from the midfield. Otherwise, his role is very limited. Once he retreats to the midfield and is too far from the goal, he can basically only pass the ball. .

Dunn has brought Bendtner for four seasons, how could he not be familiar with Bendtner's technical characteristics and playing style. He suppressed Manchester City with an offense, which is tantamount to cutting off all connections between Bendtner and the team. Either Bendtner will continue to raise his hand in front and wait for the ball, or he will run back to catch the ball by himself, and then attempt to attack. Either way, his threat to the Forest's goal is small and pitiful.

Dunn was sitting on the coach's bench and saw Bendtner running around the frontcourt in isolation, but he couldn't catch the ball. He raised Erlang's legs again.

After scoring the goal, George Wood did not go all out to attack because he scored a beautiful goal. He is still faithfully performing the new task given to him by Dunn at halftime-defense.

Bendtner finally received the ball but was cut off by Wood. He fell to the ground in pain when he saw the ball missed and wanted to give Wood another yellow card.

The booing on the scene resumed, and everyone was disdainful of his approach.

Wood saw him performing on the ground, but he ignored him and launched a counterattack with the ball. According to the unclear rules of the football game, if a player is injured and falls to the ground, everyone should take the initiative to kick the ball out of bounds and allow that player to receive treatment.

But Wood didn't mean to do this at all. Not only did he pass Elano, who was negligent on defense because he was raising his hand to signal Wood to kick the ball out of bounds, but he also rushed through the rushing Ireland.

Then Ireland became angry and turned Wood from behind. The referee's whistle finally sounded amid deafening boos. He gave Ireland a yellow card. The players from both sides quickly rushed together, and a fight was about to start. The referee and a few calm players desperately pushed the two sides away to prevent them from getting entangled.

And the culprit of all this, Bendtner, had already got up from the ground angrily after seeing Wood over Ireland. How could there be any injury?

A conflict finally did not lead to the efforts of both parties. But every time Bendtner got the ball, his voice was louder...

Dunn shrugged his shoulders to the person next to him off the court: "Self-inflicted."

"The performance in the second half was not as good as the first half." Chris Lak also saw some clues.

"If he puts his mind on the game itself, instead of boring revenge, he might actually score two goals..."

Dunn shook his head, spreading his hands, "But now, it's not enough."

"What does that mean?" Chris Luck, the Englishman, couldn't understand Dunn's last sentence in Chinese.

"It means,'There is nothing to be afraid of.'" Tang translated for him.

There is nothing to say about the next game. Manchester City has no way to attack and can only shrink defense. Bendtner also had to return to the second half to participate in defense under the roar of Hughes. In the great voice of the forest to the fans,

In the 70th minute, Dunn replaced Van Nistelrooy with a 2.02 meter Zickic and Lennon with Beckham. Then began the high-altitude bombing tactics.

Beckham and Rafinia complemented each other on the right, and they cooperated very well. The two passed to Zikic in turn, using his height and strong body to create chaos in front of the door.

If you can score, you can score. If you can't, you can create opportunities for your teammates.

For a time, the air defense alarms in front of Manchester City sounded frequently, Dunn and others were in a hurry, and Joe Hart's heart was hanging to his throat.

Finally at the 82nd minute, this heart fell...

"Nikola Zikic——! Beautiful header bombing! A heavy bomber! He left Manchester City's defenders at a loss!"

Zikic opened his arms and ran to Beckham who passed the ball. The two embraced to celebrate his first Premier League goal.

Dunn also clenched his fists excitedly and waved. Zikic's goal is what he wants to see most!

Bendtner left and left, we have a more powerful air fighter!

When Zhikic leaped high in the crowd and opened his arms, a huge shadow was cast on Joe Hart, and he seemed to see a B52 bomber. Dunn almost hugged Zikic with both hands below, but still didn't stop him from running up to the top. When the ball arrives, the football hits the net.

did you see! This is the dominance in the restricted area!

"The height of two meters and two... terrible..." Gray sighed. Even if Zikic doesn't jump, people will feel dizzy in front of Manchester City. The 1.8-meter-eight Dunn and the 1.93-meter Korluka are like children in front of Zikic.

The most important thing is that the 2.02 meter Zikic is not weak in jumping. As long as he jumps with all his strength, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "outstanding".

"It's not unreasonable for Dunn to favor such a tall and strong center. Sometimes they are really useful..."

Later, Van der Vaart took advantage of Manchester City's heavy pressure to equalize the score during injury time, and instigated a counterattack. He finally completed it himself and scored a goal that completely broke Manchester City.

The game ended with a 3-1 victory at Nottingham Forest. Bendtner played the entire game, but he did not fulfill his promise to score at least two goals. At the end of the game, when the Forest fans were happy for the team's victory, they did not forget to laugh at the "renegade" who was hanging his head and could not see his face.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Bendtner, who had been running on the field for ninety minutes, stood there like a doll with a clockwork gone. For a time he could not accept such an ending.

Van Nistelrooy came over at this time, took off his jersey and handed it to Bendtner.

Bendtner stared blankly at his former rival.

"Actually, you don't need to do this..." Van Nistelrooy smiled. "I am often injured now, and my physical strength is not enough."

Bendtner lowered his head and took off his jersey. The two shook hands as they exchanged jerseys.

"Good luck, Nicky."

Van Nistelrooy turned and left in Bendtner's No. 9 jersey and joined the team celebrating the victory.

Bendtner looked at the "ex-teammates" who wore the red forest team jerseys and thanked the fans together, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart.

Dunn rushed into the crowd, his left arm embraced George Wood who scored the first goal, and his right arm embraced Zikic who scored the second goal. Because the heights of the two people are different, his movements are a bit funny, but this does not affect the smile on his face.

——Do you like victory? Do you like champions? Come to Nottingham Forest!

——Then you can use your set to win the championship!

I chose my path, even if it looks full of thorns now, I have to go on. Regret is useless, so I will not regret it.

Bendtner put on the jersey given by Van Nistelrooy and walked off the court slowly with his head down. This was the last time he appeared in front of everyone wearing a red Nottingham Forest jersey.

In an interview after the game, Dunn was asked what he thought of Bendtner's problem. He declined to comment on Bendtner’s performance in this game, but simply said: "I personally wish him the best of luck." Then he changed his mind, "I would rather talk to you about my two in this game. Goal player. George Wood scored a great goal and Zikic played his best 20 minutes since he came to the Forest. I believe both of them have a very bright future."

The reporters saw that Dunn refused to answer Bendtner's questions, and were a little unwilling. Only Pierce Bruce fully understands Dunn's mind-the past has passed. What is the point of talking about the past? No matter how good the person who left, he couldn't bring Dunn even a victory or a trophy. So focusing on now is the right way. Compared with people who have left him for this or other reasons, valuing and cherishing the talents around him is what he should and is most willing to do now.

Dunn was still exaggerating on the stage of his team's performance today. For his opponents, whether it was Mark Hughes, Manchester City, or Bendtner, he did not make any comments.
