Chapter 3 Looking Back at the Moon
Chapter 3 Looking back at the moon
Burnley, unwilling to get a draw, launched a fierce offensive towards Leicester City's position after the restart.
Without pressing, the midfielder used a long pass to directly hit the gap in Leicester City's ribs.
The winger who had been waiting for a long time quickly stepped in and used his speed to advance with the ball.
After the Leicester City team successfully stole the ball, they also transferred the midfielder's long pass and launched a quick counterattack.
This is the offensive characteristics and rhythm of the English league, the speed of counterattacks and the rapid transition of offense and defense, which makes fans climax one after another.
The two teams were of equal strength, and in just ten minutes, they played at the pace of the Premier League.
The Battle of Tianwang Mountain is well deserved.
With the help of the system, Rossi quickly adapted to the rhythm of the game and his brain circuit became clear.
In the U21 team, Rossi, as a center forward, doesn't like to drop back and wait for the team to pass the ball over his head.
However, after activating the system, Rossi's ball control and dribbling ability reached 80, which means that he can get the ball in the penalty area and serve as a supporting point for the team in the frontcourt.
drop!
When Nugent, the hero of the goal, broke through from the wing, he was knocked to the ground by the Burnley defender. Leicester City got a set kick opportunity near the right sideline.
This position is far away from the goal, so Burnley does not dare to be careless, and Shacklebolt is even more cautious.
When Mahrez stood at the penalty spot, Rossi stood aimlessly outside the penalty area.
Without the advantage of fighting for the top, he defended the opponent's counterattack outside the penalty area.
Burnley also did not specifically mark Rossi.
Anyone who is close to him will help defend him.
After all, the players in the penalty area are all tall and big, so how could Rossi's small body take advantage of the Burnley defender.
Mahrez raised his right hand and then drove the ball backwards.
The ball draws an arc in the air, bypasses the player at the front point, and flies to the center.
Headers from this position are the most threatening.
Facing Mahrez's set kick, the Burnley team, which had suffered losses, was well prepared. Defender Benjamin Mee stood in the back post to assist goalkeeper Heaton in defense.
Due to Shaker's interference, Nugent in the middle was unable to take off, and the ball just flew over the heads of the two men.
The ball flew towards the bottom line of the corner flag. Burnley's defense of the set piece was very successful this time.
However, a blue figure suddenly appeared on the flight path of the ball, approaching step by step.
It was the inconspicuous Rossi.
"Why is he there?"
Shacklebolt looked in disbelief when he saw Rossi getting in behind him.
His task was to keep an eye on Nugent. Before Mahrez kicked off the ball, he deliberately glanced at Rossi at the top of the penalty area with his peripheral vision.
He clearly had no intention of attacking, so why did he appear at the back point in an instant?
Is this Leicester City's set-piece tactic?
Everything before was just to attract the defense. The real killer move was actually this rookie who no one cared about?
Mahrez, who also plays in the U21 league, did not expect Rossi to appear in a position that no one expected.
However, the ball landed deep, and even if Rossi could catch it, defender Benjamin Rice, who was standing on the goal post to defend, could just block the shooting angle.
However, Benjamin Mee did not choose to defend. When he saw Rossi who suddenly stepped in, he abandoned the goal and interfered with him from behind to catch the ball. At the same time, he completely blocked the shooting angle.
"here you go!"
Burnley head coach Dyche was also shocked into a cold sweat by the sudden appearance of Rossi.
However, Benjamin Mi's interference effectively restricted Rossi from getting the ball, making the defense safe.
Moreover, the height of the ball will make it very uncomfortable for the player receiving the ball, so they can only stop the ball above the chest.
Can a rookie, faced with interference, unload the ball smoothly while moving at high speed?
Many people are convinced that it is impossible for Rossi, who is participating in the British Championship for the first time.
Rossi observed the incoming ball and from the corner of his eye, he noticed that the defensive player was approaching.
If you want to stop the ball with your chest, then turn around and shoot, the opponent's defender will have already caught up with you and cleared the ball.
Shakur also moved towards Rossi, forming a double-team with his teammates.
Under such tight defense, Burnley players believed that Rossi had no chance to shoot.
No matter how he chooses, this ball has absolutely no chance.
Mahrez was also secretly annoyed when he passed the ball. If the force was smaller and the ball landed closer to the goal, it would be a very threatening pass.
But who would have thought that Rossi would appear at the landing point.
Damn it, what should I do?
Rossi also realized how difficult it was to handle the ball. Even if he caught it, it would be difficult to score.
Header?
Rossi could only think of a way to handle the ball, which was to head the ball back to the point and pass it to the center to outflank his teammates.
However, there are no teammates behind him, so even if he pushes back, it will not help.
The ball must be passed back to the goal.
Looking back at the moon?
Suddenly, Rossi thought about the highlight card he had just received.
In the 2002 World Cup, Borgetti was in the same position. With no shooting angle and the great Maldini pressing closely, he used a move of "looking back at the moon" to push the ball into the far corner of the goal, allowing the teenager to
Buffon had no reaction.
Yes, that’s it!
In an instant, the "highlight moment card" was instantly shattered, and Rossi's thinking became clear.
He took a big step forward, and his whole body flew out diagonally. When the ball was about to hit his head, he forced a half-turn in mid-air. With the help of the turning force, he slightly turned his head back, sending the ball back that was about to fly out of the baseline.
In front of the door.
The movements are very smooth and done in one go.
The ball went around the head of Benjamin Rice behind him and flew toward the goal.
At this time, the goalkeeper has moved back to block the angle to ensure nothing goes wrong.
Unexpectedly, Rossi used his head to ferry the ball back to Nugent, who was unguarded in front of the goal.
In the stands directly behind the goal, the home team fans could see clearly, their eyes widened and they held their heads in their hands.
What is this operation?
There is obviously no angle for passing the ball, so why does the ball appear in front of the goal?
Goalkeeper Heaton kicked the ground hard with his right foot. While stopping the momentum, he took a big step to the left and straightened his left arm, trying to hit the ball.
However, his previous inertia to the right made his entire movement very twisted, and his body could not fully stretch.
Nugent, who was guarding the center, saw the ball pass back to the goal from an incredible position, and his eyes lit up. He had this cake in his mouth, and he could eat it as long as he opened his mouth.
Facing the empty goal, he didn't need to make any adjustments at all. He jumped forward and lightly pushed the ball into the empty goal with his head, extending the score to 2:1 and taking the lead.
Oops!
The stadium was suddenly booed. They couldn't describe in words how this young player thought of ferrying the ball to the goal in such a way.
Holding his head in his hands and looking shocked, this is the most realistic portrayal of Burnley fans right now.
After the goal, the Leicester City players cheered heartily. Nugent even took off his shirt, rushed to Rossi, and gave him a big hug.
Seeing Nugent, who had thick hair on his chest, pounce on him, the smell of sweat made Rosie take a breath, her expression full of rejection.
However, it was hard to push away his excited teammate, so he hugged her full.
vomit!
Rossi held his breath tightly. The mixture of various smells made him almost retching, so he could only bear it silently in his heart.
It's all you need to know. You're covered in stinky sweat. Stop rubbing it on me!
