Chapter 112: The Moment of Harvesting Success

After seeing Derby County score, David Plitt was not completely stunned. He had no intention of arguing with Alex Inglethorpe, but just stared at the pitch.

Just now Tottenham Hotspur was just passive, but now the passive has really transformed into goals, this situation is completely different.

David Plitter was bewildered.

Since Hoddle stepped down and he became the coach of Tottenham Hotspur, he has never felt this way. In ordinary leagues, it is a big deal to fight against a strong team. If you lose, you will lose. The same is true for teams at the same level, do some preparations, and then try to win as much as possible. Even if you lose, it's nothing. As long as the team's overall performance rises steadily and takes the team out of the relegation circle, his work is equal to completion. , No fans will blame him for anything, because Tottenham Hotspur did not even give him a head coaching position, and he can lead the team out of the relegation circle is enough to satisfy the club and fans.

But now David Plitter is feeling the pressure.

That's the real pressure from grades!

At White Hart Lane, he played against a League One team, and if he didn't have the upper hand, he would probably lose the FA Cup immediately. He never thought that such a thing would happen. Talking about 'fighting for the FA Cup' is only an 'official language'. David Plitter wants to come, if he encounters a stronger Premier League team on the way to the FA Cup and loses the football The Cup doesn't matter, and no one will blame him, but he never thought that the team would be stuck in the first round of home games against a League One team.

Recalling this game, from the smoke bombs released by the opponent before the game, to the overwhelming advantage of the team in the first half, and now being overtaken by the opponent, everything seemed like a dream, and David Plitt also felt a pressure on stock performance. What would Tottenham fans think if... if the team did lose the FA Cup in this game? What will the media say?

To be sure, his coaching ability will certainly be questioned.

In fact, David Plitt still has some expectations in his coaching career. Like other football coaches, he also looks forward to one day becoming a real head coach. Coach a team and get good grades and make a name for it. Hoddle's resignation is the best opportunity. Alex Inglethorpe, who has some abilities but a "distorted personality", can't be an opponent at all. The club chose him to be the head coach, which is precisely why.

But now it all seems to be over...?

If he led Tottenham Hotspur to lose this game, it is estimated that no one in England will believe in his ability. He wants to become the head coach of a professional club as soon as possible, it is really just an illusion.

pressure from grades. Pressure from the media and fans after the game. The pressure from the coaching career, all kinds of pressures came one after another, which completely overwhelmed David Plitt, he didn't know what to do now.

Is it to make the team work hard to tie the score?

But how? Strengthen the attack? Or stabilize the defense? Or is it a desperate attempt to fight ahead of time? Maybe there is a chance? But if let the other side score another goal, Tottenham will really have no chance... what to do?

David Plitter doesn't know.

So he just stared blankly at the game and did nothing.

Alex Inglethorpe was also on the bench and actually knew what to do now, even though he had just had an argument with David Plitt. He still knew what to do, but he did nothing. Just now, David Plitt said that if he was not allowed to point fingers, his judgments were all wrong, so what was he doing with the extra words?

The inaction of the two coaches also made the Tottenham Hotspur players a little at a loss. Fortunately, the team is lagging behind. Many of them are stars, and of course they will not be willing to lose to a first-class team. They knew that they should try to tie the score at the last minute, and many of them spontaneously stepped up the offensive, but without the coach's command, the players can play freely on the field, and it can be imagined how much power they can exert .

On the field of play, Derby County still maintained their offensive suppression.

Taking advantage of the time to celebrate the goal just now, Wansheng has slowed down, and he gave several players face-to-face opportunities, telling them to continue playing like this next, without changing any tactics to defend, facing Tottenham Hotspur, who is good at attacking. Team, it is a very dangerous idea to use defense for ten minutes. It is better to take the initiative to attack. If you can score a goal, it can completely decide the outcome. Even if you can't score, keep attacking and suppress Tottenham. Tottenham's attack.

There is a saying in football that 'offensive is the best defense', which is the current situation in Derby County. Tottenham Hotspur is very good at offense. Even if they have a lead, they cannot take the initiative to play against such a team. Defense, because it is very unsafe to rely on defense alone, on the contrary, it is more offensive to suppress opponents, and there is a greater chance of taking an active response strategy.

"Guys! We're ahead, but there are ten minutes left in the game, keep going and we'll be victorious!"

"Now we are very happy, because we are ahead, I hope we will still be very happy ten minutes later, then it will be the time to celebrate! Go ahead, keep working hard for ten minutes, I believe we will continue the excitement!"

Wan Sheng's words gave Derby County players confidence. After the game restarted, they still maintained their offensive intensity, using the full-court pressing defense and running constantly to limit Tottenham Hotspur's offense, Derby County's morale, Fighting spirit, coupled with the superiority of physical fitness and the scattered attack of Tottenham Hotspur, this also caused Derby County to still have the advantage on the field for a while.

Five minutes from the end of the game, David Plitter finally recovered.

He replaced three people in one go - Sullivan, Asimovich, Marney. Among these three players, Sullivan and Marney are the main players of Tottenham Hotspur, Asimovich is the main player of Tottenham Hotspur. Substitute, but the foot skills are very good, with him playing Tottenham Hotspur's attack will be much smoother.

Seeing the trio play, everyone knew that Tottenham was going to go all out.

Now Tottenham Hotspur has no other choice but to attack with a big attack and use the last time to get a goal back, then they still have a chance, if they can't score. They also have nothing to say, and were directly eliminated from the FA Cup by Derby County.

But after the three played, the game situation did not change.

The three watched the game on the bench for a long time, but after they played, they really knew why the team was so passive. Derby County in defence. All the players are constantly running, forcing them to pass the ball quickly. The more the number of passes, the more mistakes will naturally increase. As long as there is one mistake, Derby County will regain control of the ball under their feet.

They were a little unsuited to the game for a while, and it was difficult to bring any changes to the team quickly. Maybe it's because they came out too late.

Wan Sheng saw a substitution from Tottenham.

I saw three offensive players coming up. The two are still Tottenham Hotspur generals. He also feels a little nervous. Fortunately, the situation on the field does not seem to have changed. The team still has the advantage, but Wansheng did not do anything. He also signaled to make a substitution. Adjustment.

He replaced Ivan Crewe with Ian Taylor.

This substitution adjustment is not to let Ian Taylor go to the game to do something, he is purely to kill time, a substitution can waste half a minute without delay. At this stage, half a minute is quite important.

......

Everyone in the room was watching the game.

The last time is the most critical. There is still suspense in the game. Derby County is leading, but it does not mean that Tottenham Hotspur has no chance. Tottenham Hotspur fans hope that the team can score a goal to tie the game, but they have no higher hope. The main reason is that there is not much time left in the game. As long as they can score a goal to tie the game, according to the rules of the FA Cup, they can go to Derby County to play another game at home. When they know Derby County and are well prepared, they will be able to play directly. beat Derby County.

This game is just an accident so far.

A lot of Tottenham fans thought so, and while they were disappointed with the team's performance, they still didn't believe Derby was really capable of beating them.

They kept praying in their hearts that Tottenham would score.

In this kind of prayer, they feel that the time goes by so fast, and a minute passes without a few passes in the blink of an eye.

Derby County fans feel the exact opposite.

At this moment, even if Derby County has an advantage, many of which are Derby County's offense, but they still feel that time is passing very slowly. After all, Tottenham Hotspur is a strong team in the Premier League. Goal advantage is not guaranteed. Now the team is in the lead, and there is an advantage on the field, but what if Tottenham Hotspur uses a wave of attack to tie the score?

Things will be different then.

In this state of mind, a few minutes seem as long as hours. They are counting the seconds in their hearts, and when they see the football flying out of bounds, they will take a long breath, and they will be so nervous when they see Tottenham attack.

It's an ordeal.

A lot of Derby County fans are constantly switching between the scoreboard and the field, looking at the game and seeing that the scoreboard is still '1:2', they will be relieved.

Finally, in this torment, another five minutes passed.

The game entered stoppage time.

The fourth official indicated three minutes of stoppage time, which is a normal stoppage time, no more and no less, just right, but both teams are very dissatisfied, Tottenham Hotspur hope the stoppage time can be longer , Derby County hope to have a shorter period, or even end the game directly.

David Plitt even complained to the fourth official, "They just celebrated for a long time, they should have added five minutes..."

The fourth official ignored him.

He has encountered a lot of this kind of thing. In his opinion, three minutes of stoppage time is too much, because in the second half, apart from celebrating two goals, there was basically no time delay. He is not Tottenham Hotspur. Fans, don't think about Tottenham Hotspur.

Even from a neutral point of view, when a strong team is playing a weak team at home, most people will sympathize with the weak, and hope that the weak can perform miracles to defeat the strong. Derby County is now playing such a weak role, The fourth official is hoping that Derby County can create a miracle to beat Tottenham Hotspur.

While thinking so, Derby County raised the substitution card again.

Even if Derby County hopes to win, but seeing this substitution, the fourth official still thinks about Derby County's Chinese coach - can't you hide it by delaying the game with substitution?

Many coaches will choose to use substitutions to delay the game. It is really unusual for Zhengda Guangming to do so, but Derby County's substitutions are within the rules, even if everyone knows that Derby County's substitutions are to delay the game at this time. Can't stop anything at all.

Wansheng replaced Ferdinand.

This is what happened in the first minute of the game.

After the replaced Osman dragged off the field, the game restarted. Tottenham Hotspur failed to find a good opportunity after a wave of attacks. Derby County made a random mistake in the frontcourt, and Tottenham Hotspur made another attack. Second wave of attack. As a result, the football flew off the touchline in a scramble on the right.

Derby County made another substitution.

This time it was Alfred who was substituted. Peter Kennedy replaced him, Alfred knew he was going to drag and wasted some time, but he had little game experience and when he did, many Tottenham fans 'booed' sound, so Alfred shyly quickened his pace.

That's what Wansheng said to him after he walked off the court. "Baker. You should learn to be more cheeky...like Leon, you can see him doing well!"

The fourth official stood beside him and rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Fortunately, he had a good impression of Wansheng, so he just listened to the left ear and the right one, so he didn't record it, otherwise it would definitely cause some controversy.

After this substitution adjustment, there is only one minute left in the game time.

......

Tottenham Hotspur fans are quite dissatisfied with Wan Sheng's approach, but the only thing they can do is to 'boo' to express their dissatisfaction. Because Wansheng uses the rules reasonably, no one can say that substitutions cannot be made in stoppage time. As for the players moving slowly, it is naturally due to lack of physical strength. After a 90-minute game, it is normal for players to have physical problems, so walking slowly is naturally more normal.

If someone asked, Wan Sheng would definitely answer.

But this kind of answer will definitely not satisfy Tottenham fans, it's not what they suspect, it's just a fact - the player who stalled the game just now (Leon Osman) was still in good spirits before the substitution. He was constantly running, and it didn't look like he was not physically fit at all. Many commentators said, "Osman is estimated to be the best physical fitness of the 22 players in the audience. He has run from the beginning to the present", As soon as Derby County talked about substitutions, did this 'physical superman' become virtual?

Who can believe it!

But Tottenham Hotspur fans don't have time to think too much, the game time is running out, their team is still behind, the only good news so far is that the opponents have run out of substitutions, and at the last minute they Don't worry about the other party changing again.

Nevertheless, Tottenham Hotspur want to take advantage of this last minute goal, it is definitely quite difficult.

Eleven players on the Derby County field have all shrunk into the penalty area.

But when Tottenham got to the Derby half-time, all they had to face was a box packed with eleven men, and with so little time left, facing this kind of defense, their only The choice was to take a long-range shot from the outside, and the result was that the football bounced off the Derby County player twice in a row.

The last kick, Ribery outside the football penalty area got.

Ribery took the ball and rushed forward without even thinking about it, while the referee was already looking at his watch.

Ribery didn't care about it at all. He didn't want to score goals or anything. He just wanted to bring the ball forward, continuously, preferably to the opponent's bottom line, and then kick the ball out of bounds with one kick. That's the most time wasted.

He thought so, and did so.

Two Tottenham Hotspur players came to intercept Ribery in the middle, but when Ribery ran, he passed one person with a change of direction, and the remaining one ran next to Ribery, and the two kept running. After physical confrontation and constant scramble, Ribery finally brought the ball to the bottom line. Then he estimated the time and kicked the ball forward as if he was shooting from a long distance.

The football crossed a huge arc in the air and fell directly to the stands of the fans. Many people in that direction also competed for the football, but everyone in the audience was even more amazed at the 'shoot', they looked at Ribery The figure was silent.

Wan Sheng also stared blankly at Ribery's figure.

He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look seriously at Alfred beside him, "Baker, I made a mistake just now. To practice thick skin, you should learn more from Frank..."

Alfred nodded dumbly.

With his action, three whistles came from the field.

"Beep!"

"Beep......"

The referee finally blew his whistle and announced the end of the game.

Immediately, there was a huge cheer from the Derby County fans stand, and everyone on the Derby County bench rushed into the stadium for the first time, hugging and celebrating with the Derby County players on the court.

Everyone was excited, excited, and they were venting their emotions.

They are victorious!

They beat Tottenham at White Hart Lane to advance to the last 16 of the FA Cup and, more importantly, being a League One team that can do that is absolutely rare and they A lot has been done for this victory, a lot has been given, and now is the time for success. (To be continued ~^~)
