Chapter 266: After the lead

"After thirty-eight minutes of the game, the one who took the lead was Nottingham Forest, which was one less person! It was so surprising! Looking at the expressions on the Barcelona players' faces, they couldn't believe it!"

Puyol covered his face with both hands, and it was his own mistake in judgment that gave the opponent a chance to score.

When Barcelona players were frustrated, the Forest players hugged each other in the rain. They took the lead in adversity, which greatly boosted the team's morale.

The idea of ​​losing one person was thrown away because he thought he might lose the game.

Tony; Don't have any opponents, whether it's Barcelona or Real Madrid, no matter whether they are eleven or ten people, no matter what the weather is, no matter which side of the media's public opinion tends before the game...

When he saw Pepe push the ball into Barcelona's goal, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out from the bench and coaching bench of Forests, and Chris Lack took the lead in rushing out.

Tang En also jumped up and gambled his arms to celebrate.

But soon, he put down his arm and the smile on his face gradually solidified. No matter how excited the people around him were, he couldn't laugh at all now.

He has watched the final of the Champions League, and although he can't remember the specific details, he will never forget the iconic event like a goal.

In the 18th minute, Lehman was sent off with a red card against Etoo, and Wenger replaced Pire with substitute goalkeeper Amunia.

In the 38th minute, Arsenal, who had ten players in the game, led Barcelona with Cambier's header.

And then…the second half…

Tang En didn't dare to continue thinking.

One coincidence is a coincidence, two coincidences are also a coincidence, three coincidences...but it is not that simple.

He looked up at the sky and always felt that this was strange, just as strange as he had traveled here in 2007 to become a football coach.

It seemed as if there were invisible hands fiddling...

"Tony! Tony! Are you stupid? We are ahead!" David; Chris Lack was excited to pat Don An in a daze and woke him up.

"Ah. Yes, we are ahead... lead!" Tang En nodded in response. "But the game has not ended yet. Now is not the time to be ecstatic. Barcelona's offense is very strong... we must deal with it carefully."

"When we take the lead, we can go back to the way we are most accustomed to and good at." Chris Lack smiled, "Defense. Let those bastards who look down on us look great!"

The assistant coach is much more energetic than the head coach.

"You're right, David. We really need to defend..."

The singing of Nottingham Forest fans came from the stands, and it became louder and louder. The sound of the rustling rain could not be concealed, and the boos from Barcelona fans could not be concealed.

At this moment, happiness belongs to Nottingham Forest supporters.

“There has always been a saying in England that although Coach Donn never wants to admit it, he is indeed regarded as legendary coach Brian; Clauve’s successor.

To give the simplest example, Brian Clauve led Nottingham Forest to complete a three-year triple jump, from the League B to the League A, and then to the Championship Cup. And this scene.

The perfect copy of coach Tony and Donne is now a Forest team. Two seasons ago they were a team in the English Champions League. At that time, they were not called this name, but the English League One... A year ago, they were promoted to the Premier League and qualified for the Champions League.

Now, they have reached the finals of the Champions League! Leading 1:0, even the score is the same! Can his team successfully defeat Barcelona tonight and copy that miracle era to the end?”

The wish is beautiful. But it is difficult to realize it.

After all, Clauve's Forest team was not sent off in the final.

After the game started again, the Forest team returned to defense, leaving only one Viduka in front. The players in the backcourt took the ball more often than not, and they directly looked for Viduka's head.

The game is not good at all, but it is very useful in this situation at this moment. Tang En would not pay attention to what others think, he only needs the result of victory.

Forest team retreated to defend. Barcelona naturally would not be polite. They pushed forward with a big push and wanted to equalize the score as soon as possible.

If one more person than the opponent, the score is actually behind, which is untolerable for the arrogant Barcelona players.

"Barcelona sieges against Nottingham Forest, and the game returned to the situation before the Forest scored. Now it's Ronaldinho getting the ball."

Albertini stood in front of the Brazilian. When he was celebrating the goal just now, he had a simple exchange with Arteta, and instead he, who is more experienced, defended the opponent's core.

Ronaldinho looked at Albertini standing in front of him. He chose a good position. He did not dare to choose a breakthrough rashly.

However, as the core of the midfield, he is not only going to break through. Ronaldinho can become the world's number one midfielder after Zidane, except for his superb dribbling. He is passing the ball.

He twisted his butt and made a fake move, allowing Albertini to focus on preventing him from breaking through, but then passed the football to Etoo in the penalty area ahead.

Etoo leaned against Pique, who was defending him, and did not stop the ball, but directly pushed the ball to the left side of his body, and turned around quickly!

The African cheetah had an amazing explosive power and instantly left Pi Kui behind!

He turned around and broke through, facing Paul who was attacking; Gerald... shot!

Piquett's tackle looks more like a formalistic distraction - completely unrealistic.

Paul; Gerald became the team's savior at this moment. He attacked in time to block Etoo's shooting angle, and then reached out to the football at the critical moment!

The football changed its line and hit the goal post and popped up!

A huge inhalation sounded from the court.

Not finished yet!

The football bounced back, and Etoo had already fallen to the ground and had no time to get up and shoot. At this time, Ronaldinho, who was just outside the penalty area, suddenly appeared in the penalty area, facing the football bounced over. He swung his foot and wanted to shoot directly.

At this time, the wet and slippery field saved the fate of the Forest team. When Ronaldinho swung his right foot, his support foot slipped, with no center of gravity, and his body fell to the left. The right leg he swung did not hit the football, but passed by the ball!

After chasing back, Albertini quickly drove the ball out with big feet.

"Woo—" sighs sounded again.

"Ronaldinho... It's a pity! Etoo's shot was Paul; Gerald encountered it at the most critical moment and changed direction. He hit the post, but Ronaldinho's repeated shot failed to hit the football."

Rijkald should have made some adjustments during the halftime break... As for Nottingham Forest, although they play conservative football that we don't like to watch the most, I still have to applaud the courage of this team.

In the unfavorable situation of one less person, he led Barcelona, ​​which was amazing for Tony; coach Donn.

The commentator's evaluation is fair and objective.

Tang En turned around angrily and walked towards the corridor. He did not notice that the rain was getting smaller and smaller.

The Forest players in the locker room were all panting, took off their wet jerseys and threw them on the ground, then sat down and rested.

One less person, fight in the rain, the opponent is strong and attacks endlessly. Psychological pressure turns into huge physical consumption.

Van der Sar was still blaming himself for his foul. Perhaps at that moment he let Etoo over and let Barcelona score a goal. As long as they are in a good position, there may not be no chance to equalize or even overtake. He sat in front of his cabinet without saying a word.

Tang En pushed the door open and looked at everyone. There was no sound in the locker room except for breathing, no one spoke, and everyone was silent.

This mental state is not good.

"Hey, what's wrong? Are we behind in the first half?" he said. "Why do you all look listless? Didn't we lead Barcelona with one goal? Barcelona! That one was blown to the sky before the game.

Barcelona, ​​the best in the world, is synonymous with perfection! The Spanish League champion beat Real Madrid to the point of being unable to find the north at the Bernabeu, sweeping across the European continent.

Start an offensive football frenzy, have the best midfielder Ronaldinho in the world, and one more person than us... Such a damn almost invincible team, led by us! What else are you unhappy?"

"So many media hyped George before the game; Wood was missing.

It seems like George is missing from Nottingham Forest! What's the fucking nothing? Do you know what I want to do most now? I want to slap those bitches! You guys do a good job, all of you do a good job, what's there to be silent about?"

Speaking of this, Done creaked behind him, George; Wood pushed the door open and entered.

Done looked back at Wood, who stood at the door and looked at him, and the two of them stared at each other with big eyes.

Thinking of what he said just now, the locker room was silent for about two seconds. Suddenly, a burst of laughter broke out.

"Aren't you here to watch the football with your mother?" Tang En felt strange.

Wood nodded: "I want to come down and take a look..."

Looking at the expression on Wood's face, Tang En smiled: "It's not a habit to sit in a luxurious box to watch the game? Come in." He waved to Wood.

Wood came in and sat in a corner.

Albertini stood up: "Boss...I think everyone was silent just now, just because they were tired, right?" At this point, he turned his head to look at his teammates, hoping that they would stand up and support his statement.

So immediately a group of people nodded desperately: "Yes, yes, it's too tiring... After all, we are one less person, boss."

"Okay. I accept this explanation. I just hope you all understand. No matter how bad the situation we face, don't show me this despicable face of death." He knocked on the tactical board.

"Let's talk about what we will do in the second half..."

"Barcelona will definitely strengthen its offensive in the second half because they are behind.

"Donn carefully searched in his mind for two goals in Barcelona in the second half, "You must pay attention to Etoo. We did a good job in the middle defense. They didn't have any chance, so be careful of the opponent's offensive on the wing in the second half."

"In addition, if Barcelona can't start the game for a long time, they may eventually replace Larson, an experienced striker. Also, be careful of his ability to do the ball."

Barcelona's two goals in Arsenal were related to Larson, which was his most glorious moment of the season. Donn believed that as long as he suppressed Larson's performance, he could successfully change the results.

"Guys, we are already ahead of Barcelona, ​​let those who don't like us before the game go to hell! I tell you, if it's not the most popular team, you must win the championship! It's not that anyone with high media support is the strongest!" Perhaps deep down, he was still worried about the future of this extremely similar game, but in front of his men, Tang En did not show it at all. He waved his fists to cheer up the team that had ten people in the fight, and used his own language to motivate the players to create miracles in the game.
