I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

Chapter 416 Is the referee blind?Yes!The pig teammates couldn't carry him, and the corner kick became a penalty kick!

As soon as the game started, Garrod quickly knocked the ball back to Lallana behind him, and then dived into the frontcourt.

Lallana dribbled the ball, stabilized the rhythm, and slowly advanced on the waterlogged artificial turf. Southampton's formation also slowly pressed forward.

In this kind of weather and venue environment, ball control skills are also tested very much.

Brighton did not use full-court pressure defense, but waited for Lallana to dribble the ball across the center line before their No. 31 midfielder Craig Nunn stepped forward to intercept.

Nunn's interception was very fierce. Lallana had just returned from injury and naturally did not want to have more physical contact with Nunn, so he half-turned and transferred the ball to the left wing.

The slippery surface increased the speed of the ball, and left midfielder Holmes almost failed to stop the ball.

This also greatly affected the rhythm of Holmes' quick speed. When Holmes controlled the ball, Conor Clifford, the little devil on loan from Chelsea, aggressively blocked Holmes's direction. The line before the breakout.

Holmes stopped suddenly and changed the line, trying to get rid of Clifford through the flexibility of his feet.

But Clifford directly reached out and grabbed Holmes' arm, forcing the ball out of the sideline.

The referee blew the whistle and Southampton received a foul ball near the center line.

The Southampton team immediately moved forward and Gu Ran personally took the penalty kick.

Today's light rain will affect the accuracy of long passes, and the Brighton team is obviously very wary of Gu Ran's strategic grenade, so Gu Ran did not choose to throw it directly into the penalty area, but threw it to the left outside the penalty area. rib area.

Lallana sprinted quickly in the light rain and immediately stood up to receive the ball.

No. 10 midfielder Matt Sparrow knocked Lallana away with a shoulder collision, and the football was grabbed by midfielder Craig Nunn!
Southampton's defensive players immediately counterattacked on the spot.

The young central defender Siborny, who was making his first appearance, seemed very active. In order to prevent Nunn from passing the ball, Siborny directly reached out from behind Nunn and strangled Nunn's neck, knocking Nunn to the ground.

But before Nunn was brought down, he forced the ball to Southampton's right wing.

Center No. 39 Chris Wood shook off his long legs and sprinted madly to chase the ball in the rain!
The Seagulls fans in the stands all shouted excitedly for Chris Wood.

It's a pity...the ball speed is difficult to control on rainy days, and Chris Wood's explosiveness and speed are not his strengths. Before Chris Wood could catch up with the ball, the football rolled off the right sideline on the slippery turf.

Chris Wood shook his head helplessly, turned around and applauded his teammates.

Southampton escaped a single blow!

The scene when scrambling for the throw-in was relatively chaotic. The referee did not see the foul on Lenuen's neck, so he did not show Siborne a yellow card.

Brighton captain Gordon Gill appealed to the referee.

The referee wiped the rain off his face and pointed at his nose to warn Gordon Gill.

Seagulls fans at the scene booed and cursed the referee for being blind.

——Today’s penalty seems to be beneficial to the Southampton team playing away.

But it’s hard to say. After all, it’s a basic thing for England’s referees to be blind. It’s probably not biased, but really blind.

The game continues.

The two sides went back and forth in the rain, making many mistakes on both sides.

Compared to the game against Huddersfield Town, the pace of this game was obviously much slower.

Brighton is also an offensive team, but Brighton seems to be more stable. They are not in a hurry to attack, but constantly explore the middle to look for opportunities.

Huddersfield Town flies on both wings and relies on two wing-backs to organize the attack, while Brighton organizes the attack from the center.

Huddersfield Town's passing style is long passing, while Brighton's short passing style is combined.

In the first 10 minutes of the first half, both sides made more than 5 turnovers.

Both sides are also in the stage of strategic exploration, pulling each other back and looking for flaws in each other's formation.

Gu Ran made three good direct passes from the backcourt, but Brighton's defensive position was very good, and the rainy and slippery weather made it difficult for Southampton's forwards to get Gu Ran's passes.

Brighton also had a very sharp breakthrough in the middle, but it was also due to the slippery ground that it failed to hold the ball.

Neither side had a shot.

The game was also fragmented due to fouls and mistakes.

In the 15th minute of the game, Hammond made a mistake in a long pass and the ball went to Brighton's No. 5 midfielder Augustin Batipidi.

Badipidi immediately passed the ball short to No. 10 Matt Sparrow.

Sparrow dribbles the ball straight into the middle!
Lallana quickly stepped forward to intercept, blocking Sparrow's breakthrough route with his body.

Holmes and Schneiderlin also quickly shrank their defense to help prevent double teams.

Sparrow has a strong explosive ability in the midfield. He half-turned to protect the ball, pushed away Lallana with his shoulder, and then continued to accelerate forward along the center.

Hammond, who made a mistake in passing the ball, immediately rushed forward and tackled Sparrow!
Sparrow took an early shot and stuffed the ball to the right side of Southampton's penalty area!

Hammond scooped up!

Southampton's goal is wide open!

Brighton's little devil center Chris Wood chases the ball with great strides!

Gu Ran immediately accelerated and sprinted to intercept the violent aesthetic——

However, at the same moment, Siborne was also intercepting on the right side of the penalty area, which happened to block Gu Ran's interception route.

Seeing that his family was about to run into his own family, Gu Ran could only change his line urgently and turned to the goal line to help defend Davis.

Chris Wood took the first step to control the ball before Siburn and Martin were double-teamed, and then fired a diagonal shot!Goalkeeper Davis' position was towards the near corner of the goal. With the ball speed so fast, Davis had no time to save it!

The fans of the Seagulls have jumped up and raised their arms in celebration!

ball……

In front of the goal line, Gu Ran, who was replaced in time, shoveled out of the end line!

Super defense: Death sliding tackle!
"Oh!!!"

The Brighton fans all held their heads in disbelief.

They all thought this goal was a must-goal!

Unexpectedly, Gu Ran's prediction and movement were so powerful that he shoved the goal away in front of the goal line!

Southampton escaped another disaster!
Captain Davis ran over excitedly and rubbed Gu Ran's hair.

Sure enough, with Gu Ran here, even if the defense line is ruined, there is still a chance to save it!

Sibornai also ran over with a smile to thank Gu Ran.

This ball was originally Siberne's responsibility, but it was his random movement and insufficient speed to intercept that led to such a thrilling scene for the Southampton team.

Before Siburne could thank Gu Ran, Gu Ran angrily shouted at Siburne, who was smiling playfully: "Damn it, Fuck! What the hell are you running around for? You obviously can't intercept him and why don't you shrink down and block the shooting angle?" "

"Yes, I'm sorry, sorry!" Siborna was so yelled that he didn't dare to take a breath.

Gu Ran glared at Siborne and said, "Forget it...then play hard!"

"Yes, yes..." Sibornai was trained to be submissive.

This was also the first time that Gu Ran got angry with his teammates on the field. It wasn't because he was the core player that he had a bad temper, but because the ball just now was really too dangerous. If Gu Ran hadn't made a sliding tackle of death, that ball would have been played by Chris Wood. Just in!

Chris Wood is a goal machine!The sense of smell in front of the door is very sensitive!
If you don't yell at Siburne and let Siburne move around like this again, something will happen to the Southampton team sooner or later!

Now, the crisis has not been completely resolved.

Brighton won a corner kick from the left.

Craig Nunn came to take the corner kick.

The football went far away, and No. 11 Christian Baz seized a favorable position, jumped up and headed the ball towards the goal.

The football was so slippery that Davis did not dare to grab it rashly, so he could only lift the ball over the crossbar with both hands.

Brighton received their second corner kick.

Nunn continued to take the corner kick on the right.

This time, Nunn drove the ball to the front spot.

During the scramble for the front point, Siborn was pushed to the ground. Siborn took the opportunity to raise his foot and trip Christian Baz.

The referee immediately blew the whistle to interrupt the game!
The referee showed Aaron Martin a yellow card and awarded a penalty kick!

The Southampton team was immediately in an uproar!
Davis and other players came forward to appeal!

But the referee insisted on his decision!
Aaron Martin spread his palms with a depressed and aggrieved face!This is not a foul on his part!It's a foul from Siberne!Even if there is a penalty, Sibornay should be the one who gets the yellow card!

Facts have proved that this referee is really blind!You can admit your mistake like this!

However, Aaron Martin still can’t defend himself, so he can’t hand over his teammates, right?
No matter how bad Siberne is, he is still his teammate!

Coach Adkins in the technical area on the sidelines also frowned.

At this moment, Coach Adkins really wanted to use up one of his substitution quotas, replace damn Siburne, and never give him a chance again.

But the problem is that this is only the 20th minute of the first half. Substitution so early will definitely have an impact on subsequent tactical arrangements.

Coach Adkins chose to hold back for the time being.

Brighton center Chris Wood walked to the penalty spot with confidence.

Davis wiped the rain off his face and stared at Chris Wood's feet intently.

Chris Wood took a meteoric run-up and shot an instep volley into the upper right corner of the goal!
The football was like a cannonball, grazing Davis' extremely stretched fingertips and shooting into the goal!
The ball is in!
In the 20th minute of the first half, Brighton opened the scoring with a penalty kick!

The Seagulls fans in the stands were jumping up and down with joy!

Southampton's players returned to their respective positions with depressed faces and restarted the kick-off.

This penalty kick is really...

Gu Ran was powerless to complain.

The game continues.

Southampton stepped up its wing attack.

Gu Ran also frequently made forward passes from the left back position.

In the entire Southampton team, Gu Ran is the most active, runs the most, and sprints the most, while other teammates, including Lallana, are not up to standard.

Today's game is really between the super demon star Gu Ran and the entire team of Brighton demons.

The team is hard to lead!
