Chapter 103 Suspense Rises Steeply

After winning the League Cup and returning to the League Two, Notts County's progress in winning the championship ahead of schedule was not so smooth, which was unexpected by many people.

On February 27th, at home against Wigan Athletic, the opponent is currently ranked fifth in the league and is fighting for a qualification for the promotion play-off, but several teams behind them are eyeing them, so Wigan faces the limelight of Notts County. Fight to the death.

Due to the lack of formal training for two days after winning the championship, the players were slightly tired and their state was significantly reduced. Coupled with the mental slack after winning the championship, they were actually scored two goals by the opponent at home and ate the third game of the season. defeat.

Although Loew did not get angry after the game, judging from his attitude during training, it was obvious that this young man was not too handsome, and the players had been drilled hard enough during a few days of training.

Adjusted Notts County face Blackpool's challenge in their second home game in a row in their first league game in March.

This is a game that has attracted much attention from the outside world. The opponent is still under pressure to avoid relegation, and Notts County needs to consolidate their lead in the standings, so this game is bound to be exciting.

The final result of the game made many people feel unacceptable. Notts County once again suffered a defeat at Meadow Lane. After winning the League Cup, they lost two straight in the League Two, and the whole season in the league. Compared with stable performance, Notts County in front of them seems to have changed a team.

Those who have watched the game will feel a pity for Notts County, because in fact, the Magpies played well, at least they returned to the unstoppable state of the middle of the league, but the problem is that today's opponents played even more weird, and finally have to. Coupled with the bad luck of Notts County, it is normal to lose the game.

In the first half, Notts County opened the scoring by Hubnell, leading Blackpool early, and also controlled the situation on the field very well. It seems that a victory is coming.

But after scoring the goal, Notts County seemed to be cursed. All kinds of shots failed. In the first half, 16 shots and 9 shots were on target, either by being possessed by Blackpool's goalkeeper Superman. "Dangdangdang" the door frame kept hitting, and the Notts County players thought they were going to score a goal that was missed. From their shocked expressions, it was as if they saw the home door frame transformed into an uprising against their ****.

In any case, Notts County was in the lead in the first half, and the trend of the game was good, but the situation changed immediately at the beginning of the second half.

Blackpool, who kicked off the kick in the second half, launched a wave of offensive directly and penetrated Notts County's defense line, leaving Notts County, who had not yet come out of the weird situation in the first half, in a daze, and finally relied on a long-range shot. Blackpool equalised.

Notts County, awake from a dream, immediately launched the most intense counterattack, almost all of them overcame the half court, and the offensive wave slammed one after another, like a stormy sea, the opponent seems to be a small sampan rolled up by a huge wave in a storm , there is a possibility that it will be overturned at any time, and the ship may be shattered and destroyed.

But today is really unspeakable. It seems that a transparent wall has been erected in front of Notts County's home door frame, blocking Notts County's countless shots.

David sat on the coach's bench with an expression of seeing God. Isn't today really an auspicious day for competition?

And bad luck seems to be contagious. Even Alonso, the most stable captain, staged a funny show today that makes people laugh.

Iniesta took a corner kick, and Lescott, who was at the front, grabbed the first point, but instead of directly shaking his head to attack the goal or swaying back, he took a ruthless corner kick to the periphery of the penalty area.

This is one of Notts County's corner kick changes. At this time, there must be players lying in ambush outside the penalty area and can shoot directly towards the ball. As long as the footwork is well controlled, the probability of breaking the opponent's goal is not low.

Alonso is in ambush here, facing the incoming ball,

Without any distractions, he raised his right foot and slammed into the middle and lower part of the ball, with a standard volley shot.

Blackpool's players and goalkeepers are facing a formidable enemy. Everyone knows how threatening this kind of shot is. The midfielder who just missed out on Alonso can't wait to make up for his mistakes by blocking the eye-catching. And to score and win the game, he himself is Blackpool's biggest sinner.

Just in their uneasy expressions, their eyes moved with the flight path of the ball, slowly, squinting, turning their heads, and watching the ball fly towards the corner...

As soon as Iniesta took the corner kick and hadn't run far from the corner, he was stunned to see the ball flying back towards him again, subconsciously stopped the ball in his chest, and then controlled the ball with his feet, just about to continue the attack, the referee The whistle sounded out of nowhere.

Offside!

Everyone's faces were filled with unbelievable expressions, as if they had never seen such a powerful flying immortal from the sky, but the caliber of the flying immortal outside the sky was really difficult to grasp.

Alonso himself had the look of a dog in the sun, and he could not wait to find a seam to get in. In an instant, the whole person felt bad.

David was overjoyed on the sidelines. It was rare to see such a funny scene. I'm afraid this shot will make some media headlines the next day.

Who has ever seen a shot from the top of the penalty area go directly to the corner?

You may have heard of it, but it is definitely not as good as seeing it with your own eyes today!

When the Notts County players reacted, they couldn't help but laugh on the field. They really couldn't imagine that their captain actually had such a skill!

Even the captain behaved like this, let alone the other players, ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding, but in the end they got nothing.

Instead, the opponent got a chance to counterattack in stoppage time and knocked on Notts County's goal again.

In this way, Notts County actually achieved a bad record of two consecutive home losses, leaving countless professionals speechless.

Taking advantage of Notts County's losing streak, the other teams behind them seized the opportunity to catch up, which seriously threatened Notts County's position in the standings.

The 11-point lead over Brighton had shrunk to 5 points, but it was only a gap of two games.

This is not the most serious, because the League Two has two places for direct promotion. Even if they are surpassed by Brighton, they can be promoted to League One as the runner-up of the league, but Reading and Mansfield are behind, and they have just beaten Wigan Athletic in Notts County also took this opportunity to narrow the gap, which is really worrying.

Reading is 9 points behind Notts County, Mansfield and Wigan Athletic are 10 points behind Notts County, and with 9 rounds left in the league, the suspense of competing for two direct promotion places is back.
