King’s Landing in Nottingham

Chapter 53: Everyone has a share in the insurer

The long-lost Balzali finally ended his suspension and returned to the starting lineup of the Notts County League.

Among the fans of the expedition, there are many fans of Balzali. They have made a special banner for Balzali. The pure black background and the plain face of Balzali are very conspicuous in the stands.

I don’t know if Wei Xun’s words before the game made the Notts County players be so cautious. Within 15 minutes of the start of the game, Notts County’s offense was very strange, and when the opponent was fiercely pressing, he chose to pass back. Divert with the safety ball instead of head-to-head with the players of the Reading team.

The team’s possession rate is very high, but there are not many **** passed into the offensive zone. Ribéry, Hubner and Kuyt on the forward line frequently retreat to the center arc to get the ball.

"It won't work like this, Josep"

The assistant coach Eric Tynehag, sitting on the bench, looked at Guardiola with a worried look.

"This is the third-ranked team in the league, Eric, look again, at least the situation is still in our hands..."

Another teaching assistant, Mark McMonis, patted Mark on the shoulder to signal his relief.

Guardiola dragged his chin with one hand, and was also thinking about the situation on the court. "Is it necessary to adjust now..."

Ribery’s performance today was not ideal, and he himself was a little anxious. The ball from the backcourt could not be passed to his feet. Due to the hastily grabbing, he also got a yellow card.

"Felipe, can we make a little cooperation? You can't get past the ball, and I don't have much chance to perform..."

Ribery reached out to Ram directly, knowing that this old fellow must have a way.

"Frank, you have to come back to get the ball and get closer to me. They are pressing too tightly and they are all very big moves. If I pass you hastily, it is easy to pass the knife mountain, and it will be injured if I don't do it."

Ram still remembered what Wei Xun said, and the performance of the Reading team on the court also proved that Wei Xun's words were true.

Guardiola, who has been sitting quietly on the coach's bench, also took advantage of the time when the ball was dead, and handed a few midfielders to his side to explain a few words:

"Retreat more to get the ball, their defense line is very close, use this space to make a wall with the defender, and then go to the two sides, try to play behind."

"In addition, tell everyone, run more, shorten the passing distance, play more efficiently, don't be afraid of injury, the boss has bought you insurance!"

I don't know if Guardiola's "buying of insurance" played a role, or his tactical adjustments. In short, Notts County's offensive momentum has played out.

Notts County's continuous play behind made the two full-backs of the Reading team a little tired to deal with, and the Reading coach also signaled to the center and midfielders to help the full-backs more.

The main central defender of the Reading team was raising his hand to signal the teammate behind him to deploy. Ribery's chicken thieves usually pass the ball to the left of the penalty area, which happened to hit the hand of the Reading central defender. Ribery quickly raised his hand to signal that the opponent fouled. Gentner decisively sentenced him to capital punishment.

The Reading midfielder and the coach kept showing to the referee Gintner that Ribery had deliberately kicked someone’s hands, "Sir, sir, look, the guy on the other side is laughing, your decision is really stupid. Up!"

The referee Jintner did not hesitate to give the Reading centre-back a yellow card, "I will not change the sentence. There is no problem with this ball. You can appeal to the FA referee committee after the game, but now please get out of the way! "

Hubner, the first penalty kicker of Notts County, took a penalty kick, without any run-up action, and pushed vigorously to the lower left corner of the goal. The Reading team's goalkeeper judged the right direction, but unfortunately the speed of the ball was too fast, he could not stop Hubner's next celebration.

"Mark, is this our first penalty?" Guardiola asked his assistant a sad question after celebrating.

"Yes, Josep!" Mark excitedly waved his notebook in his hand, indicating that Guardiola himself had recorded this moment.

In the 33rd minute, the Redding team broke through on the left side of the penalty area and was blocked. Barzagli barely cleared the siege and gave the Redding team a chance to shoot from the outside. George Grant used his body to block the opponent's shot.

In the 36th minute, Notts County won another good opportunity. Ram steals the frontcourt and short passes to Ribery who came to respond. The fans booed, but Ribery responded to Ray with a wonderful breakthrough. Ding fans booed, a wonderful butterfly pierced the ball and sent the ball to the penalty area. Hubner scored a header and the ball wiped the left post and widened.

Six minutes later, Reading ushered in a chance to tie the score, but it was a pity that the striker's single-handed shot was overcome by Reina, who had abandoned the goal. This was probably the last time the fans screamed in the first half of the game. After that, the game fell into a deadlock, and the two teams failed to create good scoring opportunities in the high-speed confrontation.

Both sides did not make personnel adjustments at halftime. Guardiola was satisfied with the score in the first half, and the Reading coach seemed to want to save his three cards for later use.

At the beginning of the second half, Kuyt and Hubner’s shots shocked the Reading coach in a cold sweat. Ram crossed from the left, Kuyt grabbed the shot before the goalkeeper attacked and hit the defender. Hubner shot again and was confiscated by the Reading goalkeeper.

"Fak!"

Eric Tynehag roared again. As the No. 1 roaring emperor of Notts County, Billa and Crowchen were tortured before in the youth training center.

"Hey, this guy is so passionate"

Guardiola scratched his head speechlessly. He can't remember how many times this is Eric Tynehag's roar. Anyway, many times. If he knows that this guy can do things like this, Guardiola is still willing. He has taken root in the youth training center.

The Reading coach finally played his hand in 70 minutes on the ground, and he played three cards in a row in an attempt to strengthen the offensive and tie the score.

Notts County almost extended the score in the 76th minute. Ribery broke through and passed the ball. Hubner knocked back. Sneijder shot from the edge of the penalty area with his left foot. The ball brushed the right post and went wide, representing the Dutch national youth team. Sneijder's temperament seemed to be raised to a new level.

Then the Redding team made a 45-degree cross, and the newly replaced high center forward made a difficult shot in the penalty area and was easily picked off by Renner. It's not easy to be able to make a shot, and it's really a bit conscience to ask for quality.

Guardiola gloated at the Redding coach who was jumping up and down on the bench next door, and couldn't help covering his face and laughing.

Lichsteiner kicked a player from Reading outside the edge of the penalty area. A free kick outside the upper left corner of the penalty area was in a good position. The player from Reading chose a direct shot.

The ball crossed the five-man wall in Notts County. Fortunately, Reina was well positioned and struggling to save the ball.

The Redding high center found a good opportunity in the ensuing corner kick. He was in an offside position with a header from close range, and he drove the ball into the goal for Renner. Unfortunately, the referee Jintner ruled that the goal was invalid. .

The Reading coach closed his eyes tightly off the court, chattering in his mouth, pointing at the referee and then at his own eyes, as if implying something. Reading fans in the audience also gave a deafening boo to referee Gentner under the call of the coach.

The crazier the enemy, the stronger we are. Hubner’s shot in the corner kick was blocked by the goalkeeper. Sneijder passed the ball to the outside of the penalty area. The unguarded Ribery shot 12 yards from the left of the penalty area from a low shot in the far corner, and the ball passed a perfect one. The arc, got into the nest of the net.

Sometimes the world is so magical, and there is such a line of goals in the crowded penalty area, 2-0, Notts County seals the victory.

Nothing to compare, Ribery kept greeting his brothers to go to the corner zone to celebrate with the fans. The Notts County players with their arms high stood in a row and bowed to their fans. Today’s three-pointer, promise Ibaraki County has been packed into the bag.

Under the urging of the referee, the Notts County players returned to the field to continue the game. In the 91st minute, the Reading forward broke into the penalty area and fell under the defense of Barzagli. The referee Gentner motioned for him to get up. A penalty kick is awarded.

The Reading players smashed the ground angrily and did not want to get up. They knew that today's game was completely exhausted.
