Godfather Of Champions

Between December 21st and December 25th, there was no match. On Christmas Day, everyone can relax and relax the nerves that have been tense for a year, and spend this festival well.

The atmosphere of Christmas has been flying in every corner of the city since the beginning of December. Like the Chinese New Year, Christmas is the most important holiday in a year in Western countries.

At this time, even if the troubles were like Dunn, he had to put aside these troubles for a while and spend a festival with everyone.

Just because of the team's recent poor record, the Christmas inside the club is a bit dull.

The Christmas tree is still where it should be, and every player also has a small gift. But the atmosphere has become a lot colder. Poor grades made some people not even think about going through this festival. They don’t know what the future will be like. They really can’t be interested...

Shania made a call to greet Dun En, and repeatedly asked him to find opportunities to relax a little and not to wear down her body. There is still a tacit understanding between them not to discuss that matter. Shania seemed to be determined to ask Dun En to speak out, not to force him. And Dunn... there are many things that bother him, and this is one of them. He didn't find a solution to the troubles in the team, and even the emotional matter.

He also just haha, chatting with Shania casually as before, careful not to touch the topic that embarrassed him.

Only when I came home late at night and faced the dark and icy house, I felt how inconvenient it is to be missing someone.

Dunn spent Christmas with Tang at George Wood's house. Every time I see Sophia again, she feels that her face is getting paler and paler, and this winter does not seem to be a good time for her.

It's just that Sophia looked at Dunn with more worry. Dunn has forgotten to shave, and his hair has not been trimmed. There is a tendency to grow longer and longer, the blood in his eyes is increasing, and his eyes are flushed and muddy.

"Mr. Tang En, you have to pay attention to your body..." she reminded during the meal.

Dunn laughed and said, "I'm in good health! It's okay, but I have forgotten personal hygiene recently... It doesn't matter, I will shave and cut my hair when I go back..."

Sophia said softly: "I don't know anything about the team either. It's just that George's mood is not very good lately. He has a gloomy face..." She looked at George Wood, who was immersed in eating, with a mother in her eyes. Love and worry.

Hearing her saying this, Dunn also remembered that Wood's mood was not high recently. Although the state is fairly stable, it is not very good anymore. Is it because of the team's downturn or other reasons that are hard to tell?

"Ah, it's not a big deal. Winter will always pass, will it? Didn't Shelley say that if winter comes, spring will be far behind... Did Shelley say it?" Dunn turned his head and asked Tang.

Don nodded.

"Have a good Christmas, don't mention anything today, just for the holidays!" Dunn raised his glass.

He didn't want to hear the things that have been annoying for half a year in this kind of thing, just let him forget all this! At the very least... He doesn't want to frown anymore tonight.

※※※

Coming out of Sophia's house, Dunn found his white jeep in a row of cars on the side of the street. He and Tang got in, turned the engine, but did not rush away.

Just sitting in the driver's seat dumbfounded.

Tang turned his head to look at Dun En in a daze, and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Many...many things."

"The team, or Shania?"

Dunn grinned: "Both."

"I know maybe I shouldn't have said this... But, do you plan to continue with Shania like this? She confessed to you, as a man, shouldn't she show something?"

Dunn covered his face with his hands and rubbed it vigorously. "I also know... but I still don't know how I should face her..."

"Do you love her?" Tang asked bluntly.

"I do not know……"

"Why don't you shake your head and say'No Love'?"

"I do not know……"

"Are you afraid of worrying about the age difference between you and her?"

Dunn didn't say a word.

"If you were twenty-two years younger and as old as her, would you like this girl?"

"Bang--"

Dun En and Tang looked forward at the same time. Through the front windshield, they saw a red firework blooming in the distant night sky.

"I think... I should like it."

Tang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. Just staring out dreamily, enjoying the beautiful fireworks blooming in the night sky one after another.

Dunn turned the steering wheel and knocked the car out of the parking space.

"Want to see the fireworks?" he asked.

Tang shook his head: "I don't want to join in the fun. Go home."

Dunn nodded without dissent. He has no interest in these fireworks displays that highlight the good time of the year.

2008 is about to pass. Should I miss it or shouldn't it?

The first game of Nottingham Forest after Christmas was at home against the northern powerhouse Newcastle.

For ordinary people, the Christmas holiday has just begun, and they can choose to go to the world for holiday-as long as they have money. For fans, admiring the high level of the Premier League is the best vacation.

The fans of Nottingham Forest still remember how their team lost to Newcastle at St James' Park in Newcastle a month ago. Now back at home, this hatred must be revenge!

For Dunn, even if it is not for revenge, this game must be won, must be won.

His team has lost three straight in the league. Since entering December, with the exception of winning the last Champions Cup group stage, he has not won another victory. This situation absolutely cannot continue!

Take down Newcastle and put an end to this dull and depressing day! There must be a new year in the new year, and use victory to welcome the new year and welcome the rebirth of Nottingham Forest!

※※※

"If the Premier League has the most disappointing team or the worst team selection every month, I will vote for Nottingham Forest in December!" Experts are doing various things for this game on TV Various analyses.

"Three consecutive defeats. In Nottingham Forest, where Blackburn dared to lose at home, how can one see the momentum of the defending champion? It's just that when Van Nistelrooy is gone, it feels like half the sky has fallen... Could it be that the forest team's previous results? Is it all made by Van Nistelrooy alone?"

"Of course we can't deny the performance of this team just because of the failure of a game, but now for Nottingham Forest, it is not as simple as losing a game. Their poor performance has been going on for a long time. Winning is called winning. People are frightened, and the loss is inexplicable. This is the Nottingham Forest that we are familiar with? Tony Dunn’s Nottingham Forest is known for winning without suspense, and is known for its stability. Even if you lose, you lose clearly. ."

"Van Nistelrooy is absent, Van der Vaart and others are absent due to injury. Nottingham Forest's offense seems to have lost its direction all at once, without a clear idea...Look at the players running blindly on the field, and they don’t know what to do. Do. The ball reaches the feet of a person, and it depends on individual skills. Even if it is a pass... it is just because you have teammates around you, so you pass the ball. There is no clear idea at all-why do you want to? How to pass the ball. No, nothing. Even if the Nottingham Forest is at home against Newcastle, I am not optimistic that they can win. The odds offered by the bookmakers are consistent and not optimistic about Nottingham Forest. I believe this is not unreasonable. of……"

※※※

Faced with his players, Dunn no longer wants to say "We must win this game". He believes that his players have also heard and don't want to listen anymore. Rather than yelling at these useless empty words, such as something practical—

"The full-backs take turns assisting, passing more high balls, and uploading football Asahi Kic. We must make full use of Zikic's height and body. Use the easiest way to defeat them! Use offense to force the opponent to follow our rhythm. Thirty minutes must be scored! And one goal is not safe, two goals can be considered for defense! After establishing the lead, we will return to our familiar methods and slowly grind with Newcastle..."

He said it very seriously, without the slightest meaning and words in his tone that usually joke with the players. The players also listened solemnly, knowing what the team is in now. They can't afford to lose...can't afford to lose again.

Although he should be cautious now, Dunn still decided to use a big attack. This arrangement is also in line with his character—whatever risk comes from, he is a gambler and a gambler who loses his eyes.

"Remember! Minimize your mistakes. If you lose the ball in the frontcourt, don't wait to return to the backcourt to defend and grab it on the spot! We are the home court. We can't vent this anger. If Newcastle is afraid of us, even better! "

※※※

After the game started, Nottingham Forest did explode with tremendous energy, showing the momentum of the defending champion, and really frightened Newcastle for a while. How can I say that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and although a tiger falls on the plains, the remaining power is still there. The Nottingham Forest that was driven to a dead end left Newcastle in a frenzy and at a loss.

Just after seven minutes, Ribery took advantage of an error in the Newcastle defense to break into the penalty area and score with a low shot.

There was thunderous cheers in the city stadium, and Tony Dunn jumped the old high, waving his arms vigorously to celebrate the goal.

It's a good start!

Nice job, Frank!

"Although he has been troubled by transfer rumors recently, Ribery's performance in the Forest team is still remarkable. This goal is very important! Look at Tony Dunn's excitement on the sidelines, as if he was the one who scored the goal. same……"

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Before the end of the first half, Newcastle launched a fierce offensive and fought together in front of the goal. Finally, Owen found a chance and scored a shot into the net to equalize the score!

The City Stadium was temporarily silent, and Dunn also stood on the sidelines not knowing what expression to do.

Seeing the huge changes before and after him, the narrator was still teasing: "Tony Tang En'an should really be given an instrument to record pulse and heartbeat... His current heartbeat must far exceed normal levels!"

During the intermission, Dunn scowled and scolded that the defense was too sticky and hesitant to handle the ball: "Driving the ball in that place? What do you bring! Can you still bring the ball directly to the opponent's goal? Quickly play the ball! Why don’t I remember the things I’ve said countless times? What is the first requirement of the defenders? Not to show off your superb footwork in front of your own goalkeeper, but to quickly eliminate the danger for me! Just football! Staying at your feet for one more second will increase our danger by one more second! Your handling of the ball will only provide the Newcastle **** with countless confidence and tell them-the ball is under our feet, come grab it! You can threaten the goal directly!"

"If you can't find a suitable passer, just kick me out of bounds! Don't worry about so many messy things!"

"In addition, if the stamina is insufficient in the second half, the full-back should not assist...or the same sentence. Strive for the lead at the beginning of the second half! The initiative of the game is always in the lead! I don't want to delay the game until 90 minutes. Can't decide the outcome. We can't afford to delay!"

※※※

After the start of the second half, the Forest team was proactive, and Newcastle was firmly on the line of defense. Don't let the forest team have more opportunities.

When the game is not open, the importance of set shots is highlighted once.

In the 17th minute of the second half, Nottingham Forest won a corner kick. Bell drove the ball into the penalty area. Everyone in Newcastle is paying attention to defending Zikic, but forgot the little Ayala.

The small Argentine central defender jumped up high, found exactly where the football was going without being marked, and then a beautiful lion shook his head!

"Lead again! Ayala's wonderful header! Zikic made the best screen for him! Nottingham Forest leads Newcastle 2:1!"

Tang En suddenly hugged Tang next to him, and everyone who hooped Tang could hear the whine of bones. And Dunn was still undecided, just gritted his teeth and tried harder.

In the end, Chris Luck rescued poor Tang-he turned around and hugged Tang En, and Tang En released Tang who was almost out of breath.

※※※

"Fuck them! Fuck the **** in the north! Nottingham Forest will win!" The fans in the stands also went crazy.

The forest team's losing streak caused a fire in everyone's heart. As the opponent who defeated them in the first half, everyone hoped to avenge their hatred at home.

Newcastle’s new coach, legendary striker Alan Shearer’s facial lines are as tough as when he was young, and Newcastle’s style of play is the same as this line. He will not just give up, and his team will not give up easily.

At home, he led his team to beat Dunn by surprise, 2:1 beautiful sniper. In the away game, he also wants to double play this season's temporary colleague who used to explain the World Cup with BBC TV.

In the second half of the second half, the Forest team began to have physical problems. Ayala had a leg cramp and was replaced by Woodgate. Ribery was replaced by Layton Barnes. Bell mentioned the midfield but the main task was. It is defense.

At this time, Dunn can no longer think about the "one-goal lead is the most insecure" thing, and he will be thankful if he can win with one goal. So with a wave of the hand, all the staff retreated, leaving Zikic alone as a bridgehead in front, fighting for the header, harassing Newcastle's defense, and not letting them be too arrogant.

The rest is to keep looking at the watch, pinch the time to calculate how many minutes the game is over...

After Newcastle saw that Nottingham Forest had no strength to attack, they turned against the guest and pressed forward to attack. Vow to equalize the score before the end of the game!

Every time he saw Newcastle's attack threatening the gate guarded by Van der Sar, Dunn's heart beat wildly, for fear that what he was worried about would become a reality in the next second.

He stood upright on the sidelines, even if his waist made him sore, he didn't notice it at all.

Now all his thoughts are on the game, in front of his goal.

In any case, Newcastle cannot be allowed to equalize!

This was the only thought in his mind.

※※※

In the eighty-eighth minute, Martins rushed into the penalty area with speed. The players of Nottingham Forest were afraid to tackle tackles at this time, for fear that the referee would award Newcastle a penalty at this sensitive moment. Anyway, even if Martins shoots, he may not make it...

Martins didn't choose to shoot when the angle was not big, but a fake shot!

Alan Smith fell to the ground under the pull of Kompany!

Clenching his fist, squeezing his knuckles white, leaning forward, his eyes widened, and the extremely nervous Dunn saw the football roll into the goal from Van der Sar’s armpit...

"Alan Smith! Alan Smith! Unbelievable! Unbelievable! They evened the score at the last minute! Newcastle's tireless offense finally paid off!! Ah! Look at the bench at Newcastle... already crazy! Escape from the dead!"

The commentator yelled hysterically. He was matched by the players and fans of Newcastle, who were cheering.

But all of this has become unimportant in Dun En's eyes.

A burst of tiredness suddenly hit my heart.

He felt so tired, so sleepy, and cold.

"... This ball is a heavy blow to Nottingham Forest! Their players are standing in place at a loss... Four rounds to win, four rounds to win... All December, for Nottingham Forest, it seems cold At the North Pole! They lost three points again...Let's take a look at Tony Dunn's expression, I really don't know what else he can say in the face of such a blow..."

No one could see Tony Dunn's expression because he was already asleep.
