Volume 1: Gamers in Portugal Chapter 22: Breaking the Deadlock
"Listen to me, if you can't open the situation, pass the ball to Kiki."
"Kiki, after getting the ball in the opponent's half, he made a bold breakthrough, but he still has to pass the ball more in his own half."
"Shao Mu, don't drop back to respond. Once Kiki passes the half-court, just go straight forward. If there is no space, run to their left center back, and the space will appear!"
"Chettien, you are a forward. I want you to run without the ball to your left front, but after Kiki gets the ball, I want you to immediately run horizontally to the top of the penalty area! I know you may not be able to play well."
Comfortable, but it’s too late to explain now!”
"Kevin Zosi, you play as a left winger and you have always done a good job. But I want you to pass the ball to Kiki as soon as you catch the ball, and then you move to the center to cover Musao's
Location! Good boy!”
After some explanation, Simon King received the first yellow card of his career because he did not listen to the fourth official's dissuasion.
But he felt that the yellow card was worth it, as it would at least prevent his team from conceding a goal in the first half.
However, he no longer has the luxury of scoring three goals. He only hopes that the team can stabilize the current situation before halftime.
But he never expected that Ji Ji, whom he had put so much effort into cultivating, would give him unexpected rewards and surprises in the next game!
After the game restarted, Kofi Kehoe, who was not injured, naturally returned to the court quickly.
And their current game strategy has also been changed to high pressure.
The Belen defense immediately felt the pressure.
First, their defenders were robbed as soon as they got the ball, and then their midfielders were completely pinned in front of the penalty area line by Shao Mu and the two defensive midfielders.
In desperation, the Belen team could only play hard in the backcourt, trying to directly hit the opponent behind and increase the fight in the midfield.
But it doesn't work, because the two central defenders of Vesena are very tall, and the opponent's forced passes cannot cause them any trouble at all.
As a result, within a matter of seconds of the game, the siege of Vysenna was formed.
Seeing that the situation on the field was back under his control again, Simon Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
He quietly looked at the opponent's coaching bench and found that the opponent's head coach Carvalho still didn't make any move, as if he didn't realize that the danger was approaching.
"So confident?" Simon King sneered in his heart, once again confirming his suspicion that there must be a traitor in the team.
"Looking at your calm look, you must think that I will continue to play long passes to transfer, right? Ha... well, if I score a goal later and you suddenly become excited, it will prove that there is really a traitor!
"
After another fifteen minutes, the game time came to the 38th minute of the first half.
At this time, the fans were tired of shouting, and the commentators were tired of shouting. Everyone thought that the first half would be a tie, and the stadium suddenly became quiet.
But in the quiet atmosphere, there was one person who refused to agree - he was Kiki!
In the 40th minute, he received a pass from Kevin Zosi in the left center line.
And forward Schettien, who originally moved to the left sideline, ran directly to the top of the opponent's penalty area.
In addition, Kevin Zosi immediately ran to the midfielder position after passing the ball. So at the moment of lightning, the right winger and right back of the Belen people made an inward movement in order to mark the man!
As a result, there was no one in front of Ji Ji, and there was a flat plain.
Seeing this situation, the commentator also regained his enthusiasm. He shouted urgently: "Kiki! Run, Kiki!"
Of course Kiki is running, and he runs very fast. His double-speed 16 ability makes him like a swift cheetah, taking the ball to the bottom corner of the penalty area in the blink of an eye!
At this moment, in order to mark the opponent's striker Schettien who suddenly pulled back, the two central defenders of the Belem team invariably chose to step forward to mark...
There is nothing wrong with this choice, but the problem is that their left center back Kafu Fite's concentration and decision-making abilities are only 9 and 10.
It didn't matter that he stepped forward to defend, but he missed the opponent's attacking midfielder Shao Mu beside him!
"Kiki dribbled the ball into the penalty area!"
"Kiki used a cow tail!"
"Kiki made a low pass! Shao Mu is unmarked! Shao Mu is unmarked!"
"Hit the door!"
"The force is strong and the force is sinking!"
"The ball is in!"
"go!go!go!"
"The unparalleled team offense of the Vesena! Long live Vesena!"
"Long live! Long live!"
The stadium is boiling!
The fans who have been silent for a long time are excited!
They know that once the situation of no scoring is broken, the next goal will not be far away!
Simon King was unusually calm amidst the shouts that shook the sky.
He did not look at Shao Mu and the other players who were running towards him, but kept his eyes fixed on the opponent's coaching bench!
As expected, the opposing coach Carvalho was shocked by this goal.
Not only did he jump up from his chair, he even had incredible expression written on his face!
Seeing this scene, Simon Jin's heart was completely chilled.
If there was still some luck in his previous hatred, then now, he no longer doubts it!
"This is football! This is not war, not politics, not business!"
"Who is it? Who trampled on the sanctity in my heart in such a shameless way! Who is it! Who is it!"
Simon King's anger was like a tangible aura, not only turning his face dark red, but even startling the players who came to celebrate with him!
"We scored! We scored!"
"How do you coach?"
"Where's the team doctor? Where's Rafael? Come and take a look."
Simon King did not answer, let alone explain.
He just slowly raised a hand, pointed at the opponent's goal and said: "Kick it for me! Just kick it like you just did! Score another goal for me before half-time!"
This was the first time that the players saw the head coach being so serious. The players from Vesena immediately realized what was happening, but they did not ask or make any further stops.
But everyone's face became gloomy.
Kiki turned around and ran away without looking back, but his fists were clenched, and his life and potential would explode again!
Simon King was not idle either. He directly activated the team's skills: "The system activates the immovable defense and the madness of high-position pressure at the same time!"
"Ding! The midfielder and frontcourt are working hard, and the stamina and tackling ability have been increased by 10%. The ten-minute countdown has begun."
"Ding! The 5% increase in the team's defensive ability value has been activated, and the five-minute countdown has begun."
As the system countdown begins, the abilities of Vesena players have improved significantly in a short period of time.
Four minutes later, Kiki took advantage of the opponent's exhaustion and made a beautiful sliding tackle in the frontcourt to steal the ball from the opponent's right midfielder.
Normally, he would pass the ball directly to Shao Mu after getting up, and then run forward quickly.
Chapter completed!
