Chapter 29 It's This Guy Again!

When Derby County was celebrating a goal, Trevor Brooking hurried to the sidelines and called the team captain Giroud, seriously exhorting, "It's just an accident ahead, it's their attacking trap!"

"The Chinese are very good at winning by strange methods, they used a similar method against Ipswich last season, first attacking, then defending. I heard there were ancient Chinese who wrote for all kinds of despicable tricks After passing the book, it is regarded as a classic by the Chinese! The coach of the other party is a Chinese, and he must have used this strategy!"

"If we thought they were going to keep attacking like this, we'd be fooled!"

"But... the same trick is used twice and it will be seen through. This Chinese is too young to understand this truth..."

Trevor Brooking continued confidently, "Don't worry about it, I already know their tactics. They will choose defense next, and we have to hurry up and reorganize the offense."

"Also, be sure to tell everyone to pay attention to their counterattacks!"

Hearing the head coach's words, Giroud nodded frequently, and he felt a sudden realization.

In the game, he didn't have too much time to think about tactics, but thinking about it now, they are West Ham United, the opponent's League One relegation team. There is no reason to dare to attack them like this. Violently, it turned out that everything was just a trick, not that they were going to attack the whole game like this, but they started to defend after scoring a goal.

How despicable!

Giroud felt a little scared. If they really thought that the other party would keep attacking, they must have a solid defense, and then the other party would also have a solid defense. When they found out that the other party had no intention of aggressively attacking, it would definitely take a long time. You can go straight to halftime.

Adjusted after halftime. Their defense will definitely be more solid and it will be much harder to try to tie the game in the second half.

So this is ah!

Giroud felt like he got it all, and back on the pitch he immediately communicated to all his team-mates what he knew, of course. He couldn't have been as detailed as Trevor Brooking said. But the meaning of the expression is clear: "The other side will definitely choose to defend, we can let go of our hands and feet to attack!"

"But also pay attention to their counterattacks," he didn't forget to add.

West Ham United players soon knew that when the two teams returned to the stadium to stand up for the rematch, West Ham United were full of fighting spirit, and their eyes were a bit directly at the Derby County goal, as if they were thinking for a while. Is there any way to shoot.

But it turns out that Derby County's defense is still good.

In the face of West Ham United's kick-off attack. Derby County opted to shrink their defence slightly. With a normal wave of defense, they intercepted the ball in front of the penalty area and did not give West Ham a chance to threaten the goal.

At this time, the West Ham United players should be more calm, because they saw that in the first wave of advancement, the opponent did not press as hard as before, and carried out a full-court pressing defense. Instead, he chose to shrink the defense line, which shows that the coach's judgment is accurate.

The opponent started the defensive counterattack!

Now that the tactics have been changed, the defensive counterattack has begun. The opponent will definitely not put too much energy into the offense, and their defense will be much better.

At the same time, the reporters in the media booth saw Derby County shrinking the defense line to defend, and they also discussed enthusiastically--

"See? I said they'll start defending!"

"This Chinese can only defend!"

"Really conservative!"

"Let them get one in the dirty way, but it's West Ham time from now on!"

The reporters chatted happily, excited that their judgment was accurate, as if the victory had already belonged to West Ham, but in fact, the score on the scoreboard is '1:0', the home team is in front, The visiting team is behind, leading to Derby County.

...

Sky TV commentator Belko Clayderman thinks slightly differently from the reporters. He is not a West Ham or Derby County fan and looks at the game from a neutral point of view.

At the beginning Clayderman also believed that Derby County would play the counter-attack, it turned out that his judgment was wrong, and he admitted the error.

When the game restarted, he also saw Derby County shrink the defense, but it was a kick-off attack, West Ham easily scored the attack into Derby County's half, and it was normal to choose to shrink the defense.

So now, Clayderman is not in a hurry to make a judgment. He would rather not judge than make a mistake. "Then let's see how Derby County will play next?"

"To be honest, I hope they can keep attacking, Derby's attacking football is still good, if they choose to defend, the game will be a little boring."

With Clayderman's words, Derby County attacked.

In this wave of offensive, Derby County did not advance fast, of course, not slow, they just advanced to the West Ham United half at a normal speed, and then the football reached the foot of Ribery on the wing, with Ribery quickly leading The ball is inserted into the bottom line, and the offensive rhythm is slightly accelerated.

This time, Ribery failed to create any threat. He dribbled the ball to the bottom line, but was stuck in front of the corner flag by the opponent. He couldn't find a chance to turn around and pass the ball. As a result, the ball was touched by his foot.

The ball is in the hands of West Ham.

West Ham United sent a ball from the sideline, and the ball reached the foot of midfielder Craig Fleming. If Craig Fleming would have driven forward with big feet before, it is the most important to ensure defensive safety first. Now, he 'knows' that Derby County's tactic is a defensive counterattack. After Derby County loses the ball, they will definitely choose to retreat, so he did not kick the ball forward, but calmly passed the ball to his teammates. Ian Pierce.

Pierce took the ball in front of the penalty area line, looked left and right, and found that there was no good passing point, so he had to take two steps forward. At this time, Cahill came to grab the ball. Pierce protected the ball and pushed it laterally to West. En-Greggan.

Two feet passed, the ball went from left to right.

Pierce's pass was a bit hasty, and the force was a bit big. Gregan used the inner instep to close the ball, but the stop was still a bit big. The football rolled forward more than a meter, and Greg hurried to chase, but the football was stabbed by Bolton Reit next to him.

Webberson was coming head on, just in time to catch the ball.

After the football reached Webberson's feet, he immediately crossed and transferred to Morris in the middle. The latter changes direction to avoid the interception of the opposing player. A kick passed to the restricted area.

Cahill pulled the ball back, turned around and volleyed!

With the cheers of the audience, Craig Fleming, who saw the team concede the ball and retreat into the penalty area, blocked the shot with his body, the ball bounced high into the air, and was then topped by Cahill to the left Ribery.

Derby County continued their offensive.

Wave after wave...

Every time West Ham got the ball, it was quickly grabbed back by Derby County before they opened up their formation to attack. Derby County's attack continued. For the next five minutes, the football continued to roll around in the West Ham half, save for two occasions when West Ham players swept the ball into the Derby County half.

That's when the West Ham United players finally realized something was wrong.

They're a little foggy.

The coach told them that Derby County would start a defensive counterattack. Their idea was to take the opportunity to reorganize the attack. As for the defense, they only need to pay attention to the opponent's counterattack.

But now the game doesn't seem to be like that.

Look at the wave after wave of the opponent's attack. There are always six or seven players in the opponent's half. They analyze it from any angle. I can't see that the opponent has even a little bit of "defensive counterattack"! !

Where is this defensive counterattack, it is simply repressive offensive football!

...

When West Ham United players realised something was wrong. Fans and reporters watching the game from the sidelines were also aware.

Fans don't have much thought.

Derby County fans will only cheer for the team's excellent performance; West Ham United fans are worried about the team's goal.

The reporters in the media booth were quite different.

No one spoke at this time.

Just now, they were discussing Derby County's defensive counterattack with great interest, but now Derby County has no intention of defensive counterattack at all, no matter how thick their skin is, they can't help but turn a little red.

They couldn't understand anyway, why the Chinese would be so stubborn to let the team keep attacking?

What confidence does he have to choose a continuous attack in front of West Ham United?

But now Derby County has done it.

They completely overwhelmed West Ham with their offense, leading by one goal and overpowering their opponents in a situation. The reporters could not imagine how the game would turn out like this.

"That's not right!"

They cried out in their hearts.

It's not just journalists who support West Ham here.

Even those Derby County mainstream media reporters, who support West Ham in their hearts, must show their support for Derby County on the surface, otherwise, Derby County fans will not buy it at all - you are a media supporting other teams, Why do we Derby fans pay for your coverage?

To put it bluntly, they are only regional media, and their survival depends on Derby County fans.

Derby County reporters, besides them, there are two "Derby County Life" reporters, these two reporters support Derby County purely on the surface.

It's just that in the media booth, the reporters who support West Ham United occupy the "mainstream". They can't communicate with West Ham United reporters at all, and they are mortal enemies with other local Derby County media. All the two can only talk to each other in a low voice.

They were quite depressed.

Listening to the conversations of the colleagues in the ear, they are all saying that Derby County wants to defend or something. They are also worried about Derby County, but the game on the field is not what other people are talking about at all. Derby County has no passive defense. On the contrary, it is still actively attacking.

When all the others were silent, they could finally raise their heads proudly and shout excitedly--

"it is good!"

"pretty!"

"That's it, kill them with offense!"

Then the eyes of other reporters in the media booth focused on them, but the two didn't care at all. They were mortal enemies, and they had nothing to say with the West Ham reporters. Now they will take advantage of Derby County's outstanding performance for the team. come on.

...

"Derby County did a great job! They completely overwhelmed West Ham!"

"Faced with the mighty West Ham United, Derby County did not have the slightest bit of cowardice. They rushed forward bravely and controlled the situation on the field with a stormy attack!"

"Looking at this Derby County team now, it's hard for us to imagine that they were still fighting for relegation last season!"

Belko Clayderman's commentary was impassioned, "I didn't expect the game to be like this at all. But to tell the truth, I love this kind of game! From now on, I kind of like Derby County! I am very Curious, what the hell did that young Chinese coach do to allow Derby County to face West Ham United. Dare to launch the offensive calmly!"

With Clayderman's words. The camera is pointed in front of the Derby County coaching bench.

There, Wan Sheng was standing on the sidelines. He stood there quietly, with determination on his face, and he seemed to have a calm demeanor.

At this time, Wan Sheng was actually a little excited. What he thought was, "One more entry! One more entry!"

"Just one more. The game is won!"

...

on the field.

West Ham United were completely overwhelmed by waves of maddening attacks from Derby County. Players on the field are just doing defense out of instinct. Faced with this kind of offense, especially in a situation that is "completely contrary to what the coach said", they don't know what to do.

They are quite disappointed.

The tactics arranged by the coach were also offensive, but they couldn't play it at all because the coach told them at the same time that the opponent would use defensive counterattack tactics.

After the opponent scored a goal, the coach re-emphasized this point.

Then...the other side continued to attack.

So they don't know how to play - the other side is doing the exact opposite of what the coach said. They don't understand the situation at all.

While the West Ham United players are depressed, the Derby County players are feeling quite good. Offensive football is always better if you play with the wind. They played an advantage and played well. Everyone felt that they were playing very smoothly, so they were in good shape.

Especially...Cahill!

In less than half of the game, Cahill had already had six shots, three of which were within the range of the goal frame, and one goal. Just looking at this kind of data is actually nothing, but more chances often prove a lot. Things, such as his movement, such as his consciousness, such as the cooperation between him and his teammates.

When he saw that Ribery made a short pass from the left to Leighton Bynes behind him, he hurried forward for a chance to find a chance. Sure enough, Leighton Bynes caught the ball and glanced at the penalty area, and he kicked the ball. Sent to the restricted area.

Cahill rushed into the penalty area and looked back to determine where the football fell. Cahill turned around and jumped up suddenly!

...

West Ham United came to defend Cahill with Craig Fleming. He has always been the main center back of West Ham United. He has a lot of defensive experience. This rich experience also makes West Ham United's defense more stable. .

But this time Craig Fleming found that his defensive experience was useless, because he failed to judge the placement of the football in the first place. As a result, the opponent's forward took a step ahead and stood in the most favorable position.

He also jumped to grab the ball, but the timing of the opponent's choice was very appropriate.

Fortunately, it is very impractical to head the goal from this position.

Cahill didn't want to head the ball, he just wanted to give the ball to his teammates. Baines's hanging pass kicked too far, and even if he grabbed the point, he couldn't head the ball.

He still chose to point to Ribery.

Ribery kicked the ball to Baines, plus Baines's pass, everyone was paying attention to Cahill, the West Ham United players defending him were a little negligent, and the result was waiting for Ribery to get it. The defender dared to pass the ball, but it was already too late.

Ribery picked a pass, and the ball flew directly to the goal.

When the football arrived at Ribery's feet, everyone's eyes were drawn to Ribery. While the West Ham goalkeeper was paying attention to Ribery, he was also paying attention to Bolton Reiter on the other side of the penalty area. He didn't perform much, but he was tall and he was obviously a good header player, so when he saw Ribery making a cross, the West Ham goalkeeper's first reaction was to be careful not to tease you - Leiter.

It's not just him who thinks so, other West Ham defenders have the same mind.

When they noticed that Burton Reiter didn't have a chance to grab the ball, it was too late to look back. They saw a figure leaping high in front of the goal, maybe he was getting stronger and taller. Very ordinary, but he jumped very high, and more importantly, he jumped into the air and happened to hit the football with the top of his head.

"Cahill—"

Belko Clayderman roared in a long voice.

...

Wan Sheng suddenly raised his arm, clenched his fists tightly, biting the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed on Cahill who was in the air.

It's Cahill again!

Another header!

Must get in! !

Not only Wansheng, but all fans and reporters in the media booth, including all the players, staff, referees of the two teams, and even the security of the stadium, everyone in the stadium, all looked at Cahill in the air at the same time. .

It's Cahill again!

At this time, Cahill had no opponent at all. Craig Fleming, who was defending him, was thrown away by him for the first time. When he jumped, he was the only one in the air, and the others could only stand on the ground. stared blankly.

Those people also thought, "It's this guy again."

Cahill was already facing the flying football, shaking his head fiercely!

Bang!

With a muffled sound, the forehead collided with the football!

Football goes straight to the goal!

The West Ham goalkeeper didn't react to this close-range header. He stood there and could only watch the football rush into the gate he was guarding.

“Goooooooooooooooooooal!!!”

In the long roar of Belko Kleisman, the Pride Stadium suddenly boiled. (To be continued ~^~)
