Green striker

After playing Barcelona, ​​Tarragona ushered in the 12th round of the league four days later.

November 18th.

At the weekend, Tarragona traveled to Elche away from home.

There were no surprises in this game. Tallaguera was still the main starter with the same set of 4231.

After being a substitute in the Copa del Rey away game, Chen Yang returned to the starting lineup.

It stands to reason that judging from the fact that Talgena gave up the King's Cup and concentrated on the league, this game with Elche should be a sure thing.

But in this game, Tarragona didn't play very well.

…

Not long after the game started, that is, in the first five minutes,

At the beginning of this season, Mović rarely made mistakes on the wing. He was playing as left back that day, but he made a huge mistake just at the beginning of this game.

When Elche's attack hit his wing, Mović did not immediately cover up to catch up.

Elche's striker successfully attacked from his path!

Elche's forward was very fast, and he cut into the penalty area from the wing very smoothly.

This mistake didn't matter, the chain reaction was that Fran Garcia, who was at the center back position, had to devote his energy to watching the Elche striker who had rushed to the wing and was cutting into the penalty area.

Then, Fran Garcia extended his hand to the Elche striker who had entered the penalty area. When this man tried to force him to break through, Fran Garcia stretched out his hand.

Then his outstretched hand naturally touched the opponent's forward, and he fell down at the first touch.

It was obvious later that the referee did not care what Fran Garcia was thinking at the time. He only saw Fran Garcia reaching out and his opponent also fell to the ground in the penalty area.

Naturally, the result was that the referee unceremoniously punished Tarragona with a set of yellow points.

After the penalty kick was awarded, the opponent's penalty kicker was also the Elche striker who personally created the overlapping bridge. He did it in one fell swoop!

1:0!

The ball was lost!

Chen Yang stood outside the penalty area and watched the penalty kick being scored by the opponent. He was not particularly satisfied with the result.

This was only 5 minutes into the game, and it was because of this unnecessary mistake that Tallaguera conceded a goal.

But a conceded goal is still acceptable.

"Catch up slowly."

The penalty kick caused by his own mistake led to the situation of falling behind first, which is considered an acceptable situation.

In fact, for Chen Yang, as long as it's not a huge, huge mistake, he can still accept it.

Of course, this also depends on the opponent. Elche is not a team that can be manipulated by anyone. This team can defend well and does a good enough job in counterattacking.

But the more likely reason is that the goal conceded was due to Tarragona's carelessness, a mistake on the back line, a mistake that was a bit too big.

However, this can be regarded as accidental. Every game and anyone's game cannot be perfect.

A few days ago, the defensive group experienced a fierce battle with Barcelona, ​​and in the further games, they basically played the entire game.

Not to mention what the mental will is like, but the physical strength also exists.

But it's better to find the reasons than to maximize the results of the game.

If we lose this game, there will definitely be too many reasons that we have to look for after the loss, but a win, a victory, can slowly improve and adjust these things in the future.

It's just that when the game restarted, Elche, who were in the lead, returned to defense after winning a comprehensive victory at their home court...

Chen Yang, who was on the front line, felt the pertinence brought by Elche's intensive defense.

And the style of play that Elche is showing now is tactically appropriate.

Inexplicably, Chen Yang felt that this was like a Tarragona team except for the players.

Chen Yang, who was running, looked at Elche's defense and saw the change in Elche's reaction after losing the ball.

Chen Yang feels calmer now.

Is this a copycat?

No! This is learning!

Nowadays, Tarragona's winning streak in Segunda División shows a tactical style that other teams are not completely incapable of studying.

Especially when a team is winning all the time, it is inevitable after all that it will attract a lot of attention, as well as the attention of its opponents.

The current tactics of Tarragona brought by Chen Yang are so advanced and foreboding that there will always be smart people willing to study them and try them out.

Elche may be one of these cases.

You can see it just from the defense.

Once again, Chen Yang tried to break through by running to catch the ball, but he was already deeply surrounded by the opponent's dense defense. He hit the opponent's player with a ball and went out of the sideline. After being defended, he watched

Elche's goal, he had a bad premonition about this game.

"This game is difficult to play! It is much more difficult to play than before!"

As a student of Elche, he stole the core defensive skills from Tarragona, and his defense was solid.

There is a possibility of losing or drawing in this game, but there is a possibility of winning, and the league's continued winning streak may have to come to a halt.

There is never anything in this world that can definitely lead to winning or losing.

………

Beep beep beep!

When the referee's final whistle sounds, the game ends.

Chen Yang, who started the whole game, stopped running.

He held his waist with his hands and rested on the spot, panting.

Tired?

With this in mind, Chen Yang, standing in the center circle, looked in the direction of Elche's goal and shook his head.

I'm not tired, but I'm still a little disappointed with the results.

Of course, it may be that I am a little dissatisfied with my performance.

In today's game, Chen Yang's performance was as usual. As long as he was on the field, he would run with all his strength and fight for goals.

It’s just that human power sometimes does its best and it’s difficult to create what you want.

The final result of this game was a 1:1 draw.

In the first half, Elche took the lead with a penalty kick. In the 55th minute of the second half, Tarragona took advantage of a corner kick and substitute Albedo scored the equalizer.

Chen Yang, in today's game, under Elche's retreating defense, he had many opportunities to attack. He shot up to eight shots, accounting for more than half of all the shots in Tarragona's golden game.

However, Chen Yang only hit the target three times, and all of them were saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.

There were no goals and no assists. For a forward, if Chen Yang were to evaluate himself in today's game, he could only say that he was barely able to do so.

"Today's condition is not very good. I need to make more adjustments for the next game."

The old captain Silin came over while Chen Yang was standing and resting. He encouraged Chen Yang, "Your several shots today are pretty good. It's a pity that you are just a little bit behind in luck. You are not close to scoring a goal."

It’s just a little far away, so maybe you will score a goal in the next game.”

"The next game is Barcelona." As Chen Yang spoke, he glanced at the many red and white fans in the stands of the stadium. They were the fans of Tarragona who came with the team to support the away game today.

It's a pity that the result of today's game was a draw instead of a victory. It's really not a very happy thing.

"But so what?" Silin asked, "Barcelona is a wealthy club, but you have to know that you are in such a wealthy club and you just scored a goal a few days ago, and it was a very imaginative and genius goal.

Score a goal with a hook, haha, this is something that many players only dream about."

Before the old captain finished speaking, he laughed again and said: "Chen Yang, don't forget, my little daughter Feiya is your fan, just after that game."

When Chen Yang listened to the old captain talking about his little daughter, Chen Yang remembered the little brown-haired girl with missing teeth that he had met in the team training before. He chuckled, "Well, I'm honored.

Be liked by her."

But against Barcelona, ​​Chen Yang would be considered lucky if he could score an overhead goal in the first round. It would be very difficult for him to score again.

"But what I'm a little bit curious about is why did she like me after that game?"

Chen Yang heard the old captain talk about this matter the day before yesterday, but he still didn't understand. Does an eight-year-old girl know what football is and what a fan is?

"As for this, it's because of your girlfriend's family."

?

Chen Yang glanced at the old captain sideways, not understanding what he was saying.

The old captain spread his hands and said: "Fea's classmate is Cole's daughter Qiaona, and Cole and I are also friends and have known each other for many, many years."

After saying this, Silin looked at Chen Yang, thinking that Chen Yang understood.

But Chen Yang didn't quite understand. He said, "Then what?"

Seeing Chen Yang's rarely seen confusion, Silin smiled and said, "Don't you know it yet? In fact, the entire Cole family likes you very much now."

"Not necessarily." Chen Yang chuckled at this. He was now walking on the way back to the locker room and said: "I see them often now. Others are fine, but that Mr. Cole is not the right person to meet me."

So friendly.”

When they met frequently, Cole would often wave his fist to warn Chen Yang to stop making bad ideas. This was not a look he liked.

In response to this, the old captain laughed and said, "That's actually what Cole is like. He has been working in the city government for so many years and I have dealt with him so much. He just looks intimidating.

But it’s still reassuring inside.”

"Although Cole still treats you like this after meeting him, in fact, his attitude towards you has changed a lot a long time ago. It's just that he is afraid that you may be good enough on the surface, but in reality, you are a

They’re just people with different appearances.”

"Really? And where did you know this?" Chen Yang heard what the old captain said, and he thought to himself where he knew this.

"Of course, I all know this from Cole. I called him and he told me personally on the phone. It's unmistakable." The explanation of the old captain was normal.

"...Is that okay? Why do you want to call him and ask him about this?"

After the game, besides ending in a draw, Chen Yang unexpectedly learned so much... family matters.

As for Chen Yang's words, the old captain's answer was quite simple and direct. Silin said: "If your daughter suddenly likes someone for no reason, or someone she knows, naturally she has to find out the reason.

"

When Silin said this, he turned around and said: "So I found the source of Cole. However, what I didn't expect was that Chen Yang, you usually can't see anything, but I didn't expect that you would not be able to see anything in life.

The one who kept quiet was that he took down his eldest daughter, Estella."

"Estella, that's a good child. I don't object to you being with her, but you have to treat her well, otherwise, I will never let you off lightly."

When Chen Yang finished listening, he obviously raised his eyebrows to a certain extent.

Chen Yang guessed the beginning, but not the outcome.

"So...what is going to be done?"

Chen Yang felt that everything had a reason, and the old captain must have some other purpose for telling him this.

"Actually, there is no other meaning..." Silin paused for a moment after seeing Chen Yang's expression of disbelief in his eyes, and then said honestly, "Okay, maybe there is a reason."

"Kole probably hopes that you can continue to play football well, and then don't do anything to regret Estella."

"That's it?"

"Yes, that's it." Silin spread his hands again, "I really rarely get entrusted by others. It's really difficult for me to do such a thing."

"But what does he want to do by saying this? In other words, what does he want to do?" When Chen Yang heard this, if it was really Cole, it sounded like he was explaining the funeral arrangements.

In this regard, the old captain explained: "That's it, Cole, there is a high probability that he will go abroad, that is, he will go to the United States for a period of inspection."

"This period of time is expected to be a little long, so..."

"So even if you are abroad, you don't forget to warn me?" Chen Yang already understood.

After going through such a long circle, Chen Yang was really convinced just because of this matter.

It's because Cole's brain circuit was convinced.

"Why didn't he tell me face to face when he had something going on? Isn't this a waste of time?" Chen Yang didn't understand at all what kind of mysterious operation Cole asked the old captain to tell him!

Regarding Chen Yang's complaints, the old captain also had something to say: "Actually, I think so too. His head is probably different from normal people."

"So, you were just making up stories with me before." Chen Yang turned the topic to the old captain.

"Well, this is basically it. Some things are right, that is, my little daughter Feiya really likes you." The old captain said, and then, "The rest is all made up. The thing is

Cole suddenly called me the day before yesterday to ask me to explain something, that’s it.”

Chen Yang patted his head, he was really convinced this time!
