Chapter 30 The Showdown with Hagen
Chapter 30 The showdown with Hagen
There is generally no tactics in the team competition, and the head coach will not guide the two teams separately. Basically, they play according to what they usually do during training.
In the main team, Kerzakov and Panov are both speed strikers. The two are not tall, Korzanov is 1.76 meters tall, while Panov is 1.66 meters tall. So the main tactic of the main team must be to go to the ground.
In the substitute group, because Chen Yingxiong, who is 1.92 meters tall, the substitute group chose to cross the side and hit the high point.
Compared with the complex cooperation of the main team, the substitute team seems much simpler.
After the players got the ball, they would directly play on the wing or pass the ball to find Chen Yingxiong as a high point, so that he could cross the football and send it to his teammates who were in the back.
In the main team, Krzakov and Panov have the same style and similar technical characteristics, which leads to overlapping positions and interfering with each other, and the teammates don’t know how to cooperate with them. In this case, everyone will naturally choose teammates who are familiar with and tacit understanding to cooperate. So Krzakov became the most popular figure, and football was sent to his feet again and again.
In the substitute group, because only Chen Yingxiong is the striker, the football is always sent to him in the end.
He has more chances of performing than Panov.
Teammates in the substitute group, Ukrainian midfielder Olisandr Gorshkov, passed the football forward for a long time and directly looked for Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong discovered that the talent of "Air Dominance" can not only be used when shooting, but also when it comes to using the head!
He judged the landing point and leaned against the Korean midfielder Li Hao behind him. He did not rush to jump, but observed the situation around him. When the football was about to arrive, he suddenly rose up!
Chen Yingxiong was just leaning against Li Hao, which made him feel very uncomfortable. This huge creature, who was 1.92 meters tall and weighed 93 kilograms, pressed up with all his strength, so that Li Hao could only grit his teeth to support him. All his strength was used to fight against Chen Yingxiong's weight. When Chen Yingxiong suddenly retracted his strength, Li Hao actually rushed forward, and how could he have time to jump up and fight for the top?
Without an opponent, Chen Yingxiong easily pushed the football to Ilya Maximov next to him, the 19-year-old front midfielder, and removed the football with his chest.
Like Chen Yingxiong, he was promoted from the youth team. Although he was only one year older than Chen Yingxiong, he was considered a senior of Chen Yingxiong, because he was transferred to the first team in the 2004 season. Last season, he was also transferred to the first team and had a record of playing in the Russian Super League. This season, he was even fixed in the first team. He currently represents the team twice at home, starting and being a substitute, with two assists, and performing quite well.
Technology and passing are his strengths, and the only problem is his lack of experience.
After Chen Yingxiong ferried the football to him, he turned around and ran forward when he landed.
Maximov did not pass directly, which was not a feature of Chen Yingxiong. Although this big man was not slow, his strongest part was still on his head. This was the result that Maximov observed after training together for almost two weeks.
So after he received the ball, he directly assigned the football to the wing. Because the substitute team's tactics are simple, the full-backs are very active in forwarding.
The person who received the ball was Czech wing player Radek Sirl. His characteristics are good crosses from the wing, fast speed, and the ability to shoot a long shot.
Seeing the football being passed to Hill's feet, Chen Yingxiong accelerated his speed, decisively stepped forward, and rushed into the penalty area.
The central defenders in the main group became nervous - everyone knows that Chen Yingxiong is very awesome now, and he is big and big, so it is really hard to stop him from jumping.
"Don't let him jump..." Main goalkeeper Contfairs basically wanted to say "Don't let him jump up", but he immediately thought that it would be difficult to prevent Chen Yingxiong from jumping up, so he quickly changed his words: "Don't let him cross it!"
He shouted a little late, and Hill immediately passed the football and headed straight to the penalty area!
Eric Hagen appeared in front of Chen Yingxiong. The one who helped him was Martin Scotter. The two main central defenders joined forces to defend Chen Yingxiong, which shows how much they value Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong was not afraid of the two central defenders and still rushed forward.
But just when everyone thought he would have a head-on collision with Hagen and Scotter, he suddenly braked suddenly, then quickly took a step back, leaned back and jumped!
Hagen and Scotter did not expect Chen Yingxiong to play such a trick. They were stunned for a moment, and none of them rushed up to defend.
Chen Yingxiong shook his head and attacked the goal while leaning back! But such a header was too difficult. The football directly rose above the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line...
Chen Yingxiong, who was sitting on the ground, watched the football fly out of the beam, patted the turf with some annoyance, then climbed up, turned around and ran back.
Hagen and Scotter looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. Such a huge body is so flexible, it is really rare...
Chen Yingxiong didn't care about how Panov played. Anyway, he just jumped up and fought for the top again and again, and played his header advantage to the fullest, not only when heading the ball, but also when picking up his teammates in the midfield. After the teammates in the substitute group found that Chen Yingxiong's head was so easy to use, they basically abandoned the idea of walking on the ground. He took the ball in the backcourt and passed it to Chen Yingxiong's head with a big foot.
Chen Yingxiong retreated to the midfield area to catch the ball, just in time to face Li Hao. He used his header and physical advantages to abuse Li Hao again and again, without showing mercy at all. Poor Li Hao rolled his eyes at Chen Yingxiong and expressed his disdain, so he was tortured by Chen Yingxiong over and over again.
If you know that Chen Yingxiong has this temper, maybe Li Hao will never want to offend this guy again...
Although he headed the ball while ferrying to his teammates, Chen Yingxiong still wanted to pursue goals. He knew very well that as a forward, especially a center, the only criterion for measuring is goals.
As long as they score a goal, everything is easy to say. Not to mention the strikers, look at the defenders, as long as they can score a few goals, they will be blown into the sky immediately. No matter how bad their defense is, as long as they can score goals, they are world-class defenders.
Chen Yingxiong is tirelessly pursuing goals. But first of all, he must be able to break the defenses of Hagen and Scotter.
After he deceived Hagen and Scotter with a step-back, they changed their defensive tactics. One person was still pestering himself in front of him, while the other person was waiting for an opportunity to move next to him.
It is difficult to lean back and fight for the top, and as long as there is a slight interference, it is basically either high or biased. So Chen Yingxiong thought about it and still had to force himself to break through and use his own body to fight against the other party!
And now only one Hagen is intercepting himself head-on, and the defensive pressure he has to face is much less, so this is an opportunity to take advantage of!
When the football was passed to the goal again, Chen Yingxiong did not retreat and dodge this time, but went straight to meet him!
When Hagen discovered that Chen Yingxiong was not a fake move this time, it was too late to signal Scotter to join him to stop the giant.
He could only jump up alone to face this guy.
Before, Hagen would have been guarding against Chen Yingxiong with Scotter, so this is the first time Hagen has experienced Chen Yingxiong's power alone!
Chen Yingxiong jumped high and flew over to the landing point of the football. Hagen jumped on the spot and wanted to push the football out before Chen Yingxiong.
Chen Yingxiong knew that the Norwegian captain was so powerful that he was 1.85 meters tall and weighed 84 kilograms. He was also very strong. He headed very well, and unlike some defenders, he was not afraid of physical confrontation like collisions. Even if his opponent was taller than him, he dared to face the battle head-on. He was a very difficult guy.
Even if he is the only one, he can pose a great threat to himself.
But now that the arrow is on the string, Chen Yingxiong has no choice, so he cannot choose to avoid it. Moreover... As a center forward, he is born to fight against all kinds of central defenders. He cannot retreat, nor will he retreat!
Eric Hagen had a ferocious face, and Chen Yingxiong's expression was not far away.
The two met in the air, and Chen Yingxiong's shoulders hit Hagen's chest.
Hagen's body tilted, but his good balance ability prevented him from falling down directly. Instead, he reached out to grab Chen Yingxiong's shoulder, pressed down hard, and at the same time he leaned his head to hit the ball.
When Hagen grabbed his shoulder, Chen Yingxiong also felt his body tilted and his upward power was significantly weakened.
If the opponent just presses down, then the ball will not be able to be pushed!
During training, Chen Yingxiong was always suppressed by Hagen. If he was suppressed this time, how could he win the favor of the head coach and be selected into the competition roster?
So, absolutely not!
If I can’t even deal with Eric Hagen, how can I become a football hero? In the outside world, there are many more characters who are better than Hagen!
Chen Yingxiong gritted his teeth, blue veins spread out from his neck, then twisted his waist and rushed towards the football desperately.
The two people's heads looked like they were about to bump into each other!
But in the end, it passed by!
Chen Yingxiong took the lead in pushing the ball, and a muffled bang sounded in his ears, and he could feel the impact.
He couldn't always open his eyes. When his forehead was in contact with the football, he still closed his eyes reflexively. But he quickly opened it and glanced at the football from the corner of his eyes.
The football was still flying, and the main goalkeeper Contfalski's hand was right next to him, but he was unable to stop it, so the football flew into the goal first!
"Oh! Beautiful!" Some of the coaches watching the game off the court exclaimed such an amazement.
This is the first time Chen Yingxiong scored a goal in a single match with Hagen!
Interim referee Porter's whistle sounded: "The goal is valid!"
The two of them landed at the same time, and neither side fell to the ground. Chen Yingxiong turned around and fisted and yelled: "Okay!!"
Hagen looked at Chen Yingxiong's back as he fisted and roared, and held his chest with one hand - the part that was hit by Chen Yingxiong.
Martin Scotter, who was a spectator throughout the process, said to him, "Is it swollen?"
Hagen grinned: "No!"
Chapter completed!
