Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 161

Van der Vaart received a pass from Modric, passed the midfield at high speed, and came to the front of Sunderland's penalty area.

Sunderland's defense line had only one central defender back in place at this time, and a one-on-one situation was formed immediately.The central defender was still shouting loudly, mumbling something.

Van der Vaart had no time to listen. Seeing that the central defender blocked most of the angles, he decided to take a shot. The ball passed the central defender's feet, entered the unblocked corner, and flew towards the goal.

He chose decisively, but in fact he had no choice.

Right on target! ——The ball just landed in the goalkeeper's arms. The young goalkeeper hugged the ball tightly, then rushed forward, pressed the ball to the ground, and raised his head at the same time, showing an expression of "no one wants to attack me".

Van der Vaart put his hands on his hips, panting heavily, and couldn't help but feel a little pity for the ball just now.It was obvious that the opponent's central defender and the newly replaced goalkeeper had teamed up to play together, and deliberately left him such an easy shooting angle-the cooperation was so tacit, he actually underestimated the opponent.

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Andy Gray let out a long sigh of relief, collapsed on the seat, and said, "It's dangerous..."

Richard Keith looked at the live broadcast camera with great interest, and said: "Look at these two, it seems that it is not over yet, and they are still chatting there."

In the picture, van der Vaart is slowly retreating, but goalkeeper Pickford and central defender Hummels are still muttering, endlessly, the two seem to be dissatisfied with each other, but they seem to be too good To put it bluntly, it can be poured out at any time.

After Sunderland defended the ball, there seemed to be some subtle changes on the field.

First of all, Lao Lei couldn't sit still.He immediately called for an assistant coach, and the two discussed quickly with a tactical board-Sunderland withdrew a defender, but effectively prevented Tottenham's attack.Such a situation is what Tottenham do not want to see.After Sunderland replaced the two at once, Tottenham are also preparing to make tactical adjustments.

The emotions of the Sunderland players have also been affected to some extent: it seems that the door of their own backyard has been closed casually, a cork has been added to the hole in the bucket, and the word "worry" of "worry" has been quietly erased.

At this time Sunderland regained control of the ball, Pickford threw the ball to Hummels, Henderson dropped back from his position, and began to reorganize the attack after receiving the ball.

With about 20 minutes left in the game, Sunderland trailed by two goals, but Henderson, who was in possession of the ball, was slow and not in a hurry-in the matter of attacking, the last thing Sunderland lacks is patience.

As a result, the Tottenham players quickly saw their opponents start to take their feet slowly in their own half.The ball was changed from left to right, and then from right to left; the midfielder was just about to pass to the striker, and as soon as he saw the opponent intercepting, Sunderland immediately knocked or retreated... It looked like he was going to attack The door is closed, and when things come to an end, they always "coax" back.

Even Tottenham fans are a little anxious for their opponents: Why don't you attack?Still two goals behind, there is no way to get it back.

In this way, the ball went around and returned to Henderson's feet.

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Andy Gray suddenly realized: "I recognize this trick! This is the legendary 'Wolf is coming': Sunderland will shout 'Wolf is coming' every time, you think he wants to Attacked, but he turned his face and then withdrew again, this happened two or three times, and the opponent no longer believed that Sunderland would attack..."

Andy Gray hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly saw Henderson throw a straight kick and gave the ball to Messi who retreated from the penalty area to take the ball. Messi passed through the "Messi Corridor" as fast as lightning, straight When he came to the small penalty area, he pushed the arch of his left foot, and the ball crossed a wonderful diagonal line, and went straight into the dead corner on the upper left of the goal.Tottenham goalkeeper Gomez can only look at the ball and sigh.

Messi came out from the crowd in front of the penalty area, raised his arms and shouted, looking extremely excited.

hat trick! ——This is the second hat-trick of the game.At this time, the entire White Hart Lane Stadium set off a huge wave of noise, not only for the visiting team to take another step towards equalizing the score, but also for this crazy game:

In one game, there were actually two hat-tricks!

Messi's fans in the stands are also crazy at the moment: they never thought that they could see May's boss perform a hat-trick in this stadium in London.

Andy Gray couldn't help asking his partner at this time: "You said, in a game, two players performed a hat-trick. Who should the ball be given to in the end?"

Richard Keys looked lazily at his pig teammates, not intending to give any hints: "How do you know that one of them won't become a 'big four'?"

Andy Gray was stunned: That's true. The game is not over yet. Who can predict what this goal war will look like in the end?

For the same reason, the score is now 5-4, whether Tottenham scored another goal to win the game 6-4, or whether Sunderland will be lucky enough to equalize the score, at this moment, no one can say.

After Sunderland had only one goal left, Tottenham, under the command of Lao Lei, shrunk their formation tighter.Only Van der Vaart was cruising around the midfield, looking for any opportunity to launch a counterattack.

In the 82nd minute of the game, a Tottenham defensive player had a thigh cramp-the cramp at this point in time was enough to prove that Anton's previous inference was correct: Although the two defense lines had been kicked into sieves before, but Tottenham have also invested a lot of strength and physical fitness in the backcourt, and they have reached the physical node at this time;

Sunderland has an advantage in investing troops in the midfield and has an absolute advantage in possession of the ball. There is not much time left in the game. At this time, they will seize the advantage of numbers and attack with all their strength.

Behind the Sunderland players, the backcourt was empty.

"Isn't this left for Tottenham to fight back?" Richard Keys, who was familiar with Lao Lei's routine, couldn't help muttering.

Sure enough, half a minute later, Tottenham midfielder Modric stole the ball. He seemed to know the position of his teammates without looking. He stretched his foot forward and pushed the ball under Defoe's feet——

On the other side of the field, van der Vaart has also started at high speed.

In front of them was a vast "prairie" in Sunderland's midfield.

"It's over!" Andy Gray covered his face and dared not look at it.

This is a two-on-one teamwork in front of goal, and Sunderland's players are still in the midfield... Far water can't save close fire.

"Look, those two boys in Sunderland's backcourt—"

Andy Gray says he doesn't watch: "What's so good about arguing?"

"...one of them is keeping the other from coming out!" Richard Keys did his job: commentary.

The director took advantage of the situation and gave a close-up, focusing on Hummels, the only central defender in Sunderland's backcourt. Hummels shouted and gestured.Goalkeeper Pickford had a tense expression on his face, but he just stayed near the small penalty area and did not attack rashly.

Defoe was in the prime of his life, and as a professional striker, he burst out with incredible speed even in the last moments of the game - this speed gradually slowed down at the front of the Sunderland penalty area, and Hummels blocked his angle. , making it impossible for him to pass the ball to Van der Vaart.

Defoe had no choice but to choose to shoot by himself. He stopped the ball for a while, and the goalkeeper was already in place. At the same time, Hummels came up to block, and Defoe kicked it before he stepped forward to block——

Pickford pounced on the ball, the ball dropped instantly and landed on the turf beside him, and Defoe rushed forward——

Could it be that the story of Defoe shooting himself and making up shots in the first half will be repeated?

Pickford was very steady, picked up his hands lightly in the air, and immediately picked up the ball in his hands.He didn't stop at all, but rushed forward quickly, holding the ball, quickly passed the opponent's two forwards, and with a "bang", he drove out with a big foot.

"Look, counterattack—"

Richard Keith reached out and shook his partner desperately, lest he miss this scene and regret it for life.

The big foot crossed the entire midfield and found Vardy without any mistakes-this kind of ball Vardy is easy to unload, unloaded to his feet, and he is already facing the goalkeeper.

Tottenham goalkeeper Gomez is struggling to block the angle of Vardy's shot at the moment.In this game, he saved a few shots from Vardy, and he was confident that he could still make it.

Unexpectedly, when Vardy came to his head, he lightly knocked behind him with his heel, and a person behind him came at a high speed. He didn't even make a kick to shoot, and directly rushed into the goal with the ball.

It was Royce who scored the goal. After he ran out of the goal, he rushed up to give Vardy a high-five to celebrate, knowing in his heart: Vardy is paying back his favor for his assist in the first half.This is good, the two each scored another goal and assisted.

Gomez was so angry that he stretched out his fists on the ground and pounded it vigorously—why is it so disrespectful to score without even taking a shot?

The game was coming to an end at this time, and Sunderland scored a goal at the last moment to equalize the score.

Not long after, the referee blew the final whistle.At this time, some fans even raised their heads in a daze and asked, "How much is this?"

The kind-hearted person pointed to the scoreboard, which showed a score of 5 to 5.

Immediately, some neutral fans sighed unsatisfactorily: "This game is so good-I really want to play another 90 minutes and let the two sides decide the winner.

At this time, not only the Tottenham players were exhausted, but also the Sunderland players.After the final whistle, most of them lay down directly on the green grass. While receiving help from the team doctors to relax their muscles on the spot, they muttered to themselves: "Play for another 90 minutes? Are you still alive?"

At this time, only Messi was still turning around on the field, looking for something.He suddenly saw a big man in a Tottenham jersey, with a game ball in his arm, preparing to leave.

Messi quickly stopped the person: "Hey, please keep the game ball, it is mine!"

Hearing Messi's voice, the big man turned his face and looked down at Messi.

Only then did Messi realize that this person was Van der Vaart - Van der Vaart also scored a hat-trick in this game, and he was also eligible to take away the game ball.

Who should this ball belong to?
