Chapter 80 Magical Ass(1/2)
"Zhang passed the ball to Makarochi!"
"Crossing!"
"This is the back point... Zhang! He jumped up! Stabus collided with him... header!" After a moment of silence, the jjb stadium suddenly sounded with cheers of mountains and tsunamis--
"The ball has entered! It has entered!"
“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!!!!!!!!!”
Mick Williams's shout came from the stadium radio. He seemed to be venting all his strength in this shout, "goal! The ball is in! It's Zhang! His header helped Wigan Athletics overtake the score!"
Not only the goal, but also the world wave in the first half, this goal is also exciting!
Everyone knows the No. 13 technical characteristics of Wigan Athletics, and this goal is like a combination of all his characteristics, unreasonable and rampant -
Very domineering!
Stabus, who fell on the grass, was like a hero who stood up with one hand, conquered Stabus, conquered Everton's half, and conquered everyone present.
“Beautiful job!”
"Hula..." The cheers in the stadium were shaking!
The goal was so happy that Zhang Tiehan raised his hand and was excited, and then he was surrounded by his teammates who ran over. With a few words of congratulations, he was soon buried in the enthusiasm of his teammates.
...
Looking at the excitement of Wigan Athletics players and fans, Everton people's hearts were bleeding.
They lost another goal.
During the break, they thought the team would win the final victory, but the opponent scored the first goal, and it was such a goal. Stabus had just gotten up from the ground, but no one sympathized with him at this time, and everyone thought he was a loser.
At the same time, Everton is also a loser.
They were very depressed.
The ball just now was so shocking. Zhang Tiehan pressed Stabs to hit the ball. The picture was deeply engraved in the hearts of many people, shocking them and feeling powerless to fight.
Stabs is Everton's backbone defense. He is the team's backcourt player and has a very strong ability to confront each other. He is such a tough guy who confronts Zhang Tiehan head-on, but Zhang Tiehan presses his body to hit the ball.
Stabs was 1.92 meters tall, and he jumped up before reaching the other person's chest.
Stabbs was 180 pounds (about 82 kilograms). He was so strong that he collided with the opponent in the air and fell directly to the ground, and the opponent scored the ball and landed safely.
Stabbs…
In short, in the confrontation with Zhang Tiehan, he had a general disadvantage and had no advantage at all.
Stabbs doesn't work, and it's definitely not work if it's someone else. After seeing the goal just now, many Everton players understood why head coach Moyes attached so much importance to Zhang Tiehan's defense before the game, and even used two central defenders to block the defense.
This guy can't defend himself at all!
Fortunately, there were more than ten points left in the game, only one goal behind, and they couldn't completely crush Everton. They still had a chance to equalize the score, and they were not yet time to admit defeat.
When Wigan Athletic celebrated the goal, Rooney had already carried the ball to the center circle and asked the referee to urge the kickoff. They didn't want to give their opponents the opportunity to delay time in celebrating the goal.
The celebration didn't take long, and it ended just by cheering.
The game started again, Everton's offense kicked very hard. Now they were behind. Only by catching up with a goal can they stand on the same starting line as Wigan Athletics. Moyes no longer had any gentlemanly demeanor. He stood on the court and used his shouts to direct the game.
The same is true for Javier. His shouts kept reminding the players of loopholes in the defensive formation and directing the team's defense.
The performance of the two head coaches added a bit of excitement to the game.
Because the offensive pressure was very high, Everton players consciously pressed the whole game, and they quickly took the initiative on the field. Football was controlled by their feet for most of the time. It was not easy for Wigan Athletic to play the ball through half the game. Not only Zhang Tiehan, but even Ellington and Roberts returned to the backcourt to participate in the defense.
A few minutes later, taking advantage of a side ball opportunity, Jewell replaced veteran Neil Roberts with Tony Dinging and replaced the forward with a defender. This is a very obvious signal that Wigan Athletics needs to strengthen its defense.
"The purpose of this substitution is obvious. Jewell wants to defend the fruit of victory. Roberts is already old. His physical fitness is difficult to support front and back running. Tony Ding Ning is only twenty-three years old. He can help Wigan Athletics stabilize the defense."
"But it's not easy for Wigan Athletic to hold on for ten minutes. Everton's pass penetration is very strong, and they have a pair of two forwards with Rooney and Razinski. Both of them are very good at grabbing points and heading the ball."
Cedric said to the substitution.
Other media also hold similar views. They believe that Everton has strong offensive power. After all, Rooney and Razinski in the frontcourt, Everton's midfielder is also gorgeous. Gemir, Alexanderson, Graveson and Gascoin are all excellent world-class players.
However, if you want to tie the score, you can't just have a gorgeous lineup.
In addition to those die-hard media of Everton, other media think that Wigan Athletics is likely to win. After all, they lead with one goal, and Everton's chance of scoring is greater than the chance of not scoring. No matter how gorgeous Everton's lineup is, it is very difficult to break through the iron barrel formation composed of eleven players of Wigan Athletics.
...
Everton attacked for five minutes in a row.
Wigan Athletics was completely suppressed, and they acted like they were desperately defending, but this was not in line with the tactics of the midfield arrangement. In the past, they were pressed and beaten like this after leading, but now the team's offense is also very threatening. At the jjb Stadium, in front of more than 20,000 Wigan fans, they don't want to play such a game.
More importantly, if this continues, who knows whether the opponent will score a goal?
If Everton really scores a goal, they will play extra time, and the victory will probably really fly away from hand.
The Wigan Athletics players were unwilling to give up. They wanted to attack, at least they had to show some momentum, so that Everton was worried and did not dare to attack as hard as he had just done.
Everton midfielder Gascoin kicked the plane and was a goal shot.
The goalkeeper was about to pass the ball with his big foot, and Zhang Tiehan ran back to ask for the ball. Feilan threw the ball directly. After Zhang Tiehan got the ball, he did not lead forward, but just let everyone stabilize it, and then handed the ball to Ridell.
Ridell slowly moved forward with the ball, and everyone's mentality became more stable.
Everton is still very forward, and the game is about to end in a few minutes. They have to come up and put pressure on Wigan Athletics, otherwise they will have no chance.
Rooney came up to grab the ball.
Ridell was still slowly dribbling the ball, as if he didn't see Rooney. Rooney thought it was a good opportunity. He rushed forward suddenly, but Ridell just gently pushed the ball to the right, followed and continued to move forward.
"Oh...beautiful! Ridell shook Rooney away easily!"
Rooney was unwilling to chase the ball, but when he stabilized his body and turned around, he had already pulled away from Ridell a few meters away.
Gascoin ran over and intercepted the ball again.
After a game, Everton players rarely see Wigan Athletics players passing the ball alone. They think this is normal. After all, Wigan Athletics is an English League One team or a new team in English One. The players in the team are definitely not much stronger in their personal abilities, especially in terms of personal skills, which are even worse.
Now seeing Ridell dribbling the ball, they all think it is a good opportunity to counterattack.
Gascoin went up. He was very experienced and didn't make any moves. He seemed to force Ridell to pass the ball, but Ridell was still lying steadily, as if he didn't see Gascoin.
Gascoin was a little angry and rushed forward.
Then... he was still easily shaken away by a small change of direction. He even judged the wrong direction. This extraordinary person was exactly the same as that of Rooney just now. It was so simple and direct. Both Rooney and Gascoin fell repeatedly.
"This is Andy Ridell of Wigan Athletics. He is unknown in England. But the teams that have played with Wigan Athletics know that they have such an excellent midfielder! His skills are impeccable! He is the core of Wigan Athletics' midfielder!"
Many people were surprised by Ridell's extraordinary talent, so Cedric said a few words just by chance.
really.
There is a gap between other Wigan Athletics players and Everton's stars, but Ridell is definitely not included. Although he has been in the low-level league, when the team is in the third-level league, Ridell's salary is comparable to the first half of the team. At that time, he was only twenty years old and had already earned more than 10,000 pounds a weekly salary.
He is a Wigan, and his importance in the Wigan heart is irreplaceable.
A few years ago, Ridell had many opportunities to transfer to other clubs, even Super League clubs, but he did not. He still stayed in Wigan Athletics, which was loyal and faithful, so he was the team's well-deserved boss.
Ridell passed two consecutive times, and his movements were still slow. When Everton's third player came up, he had already dribbled the ball across the center line, and then he passed the ball.
He handed the ball to Makarochi on the wing.
Makaroc was not that steady, but his feet were superb and his speed was quite fast. After getting the ball, he immediately quickly led forward and went straight to the bottom line and passed the ball into the middle.
"Macaroc passes!"
"open!"
Zhang Tiehan suddenly appeared in the restricted area!
He was double-smacked between Will and Stabus, but he still jumped from the spot and fought for the first point. Unfortunately, the defense of the two was too tight, and his body was a little unstable in the air and could not exert force. As a result, the football went out of the bottom line.
It's a pity that Wigan fans called it.
The offense was very stable this time, but the pass was a bit hasty and the shot was mediocre. However, this was also Wigan Athletic's counterattack against Everton. They proved with their offense that the team did not have the ability to counterattack.
Ridell, Makarochi, Zhang Tiehan, three people, created a threat with three touches. Ridell's performance was the most eye-catching, but Zhang Tiehan headed the ball under the double-team of the two, and his performance was also eye-catching.
This made Everton worry and the Wigan Athletics players also had the confidence.
We are not just defending!
After Everton failed to make a successful offense, Wigan Athletics made another goal. Zhang Tiehan backed the ball to Ellington at the front of the penalty area. The latter shot the goal from a small angle, but unfortunately the football flew out from the crossbar.
But it was another threat!
With two offenses and two threats, Wigan Athletics showed the team's efficiency in offense. Next, Wigan Athletics performed more actively, and it felt like it was only at the last moment of the game that it found the feeling of the game.
The whole team played very flexibly, from the left, right, in front of the penalty area, and in the penalty area, they created opportunities in various positions, completed counterattacks three times in a row, maintaining offensive firepower.
Everton was completely suppressed for a moment.
This situation made many people confused, especially Sky Sports' commentator Cedric, who just said, 'Wigan Athletic will stick to defense until the end of the game', but then Wigan Athletic will start a full-scale attack.
It was like Everton was leading.
"Oh! It's Zhang's shot again! He completed a long shot in front of the penalty area, but unfortunately he didn't play the force, and Simonson easily put the ball in his arms..." Cedric cursed Everton as he talked about the game.
Everton!
