As a goalkeeper, carry the team forward

Chapter 48
The answer will be revealed soon.

In stoppage time, Newcastle United striker Demba Ba received a wonderful pass from his teammate, shot with his right foot in the small penalty area, and the ball flew into the goal again.

Aston Villa led by one goal, was reversed by Newcastle United, tasted a three-game losing streak at the beginning of the new season of the Premier League, and ranked bottom with 0 points.

For a time, dark clouds filled the Villa team.

……

Villa's three-game losing streak did not affect Jose, on the contrary he began to become more and more mature.In the new week, he got rid of the habit of directing the defenders to cooperate with him when he was in the youth team, but began to try to cooperate with his teammates according to their positions.

Jose's change gave him a tacit understanding with his teammates.

In this way, two weeks passed. During this period, an international match day ushered in, and Jose still has not been called up by the China National Football Team.

In mid-September, the fourth round of the Premier League game came as scheduled, and twenty teams from the Premier League fought in pairs.

Villa will sit at home this round and face the Welsh team Swansea from afar.

Swansea ranked No.14 in the league last season, the best among the three promoted polo teams last season.

The biggest feature of Swansea is that they are good at creating opportunities through through balls, and their long-range scoring ability is also top-notch. What really makes people dare not take it lightly is that they have a tenacious will to reverse and are good at creating miracles when they are behind.

This time, Jose entered the 18-man roster as he wished, but he still failed to get the chance to start.

Villa's starters are:

The goalkeeper position is guarded by Guzan.

The four defenders are Lehigh, Clark, Vlaar and Lowton.

The midfield diamond has Ahmadi, Bannan, Holman and Ireland.

The double-arrow strikers are still Darren Bent and Weiman.

Swansea put on a 4231 formation.

Goalkeeper: Volm.

Guards: Ben Davis, Ashley Willis, Tate, Angel Rangel.

Double midfielder combination: Britton, De Guzman.

Front midfielder positions: Routledge, Michu, Nathan Dyer.

Breaking forward center: Danny Graham.

Although Swansea's lineup does not have big-name stars, as players who have worked together since the British Championship, their cooperation can be described as very skilled, and their style of play is pass and control.

Affected by Barcelona, ​​more and more teams have begun to try the pass-and-control style of play. The advantage is to take the initiative in their own hands. The disadvantage is that the requirements for players' ball-handling skills have increased.

...

Local time, Saturday, September 9th, at 15:[-] p.m., Villa Park Stadium, with the whistle of the referee, the game began.

Swansea, who played in the away game, did not hide in their own half. They turned away from the guest and continued to cooperate with short passes to firmly control the ball in Villa's half.

For a while, the Villa players felt like they couldn't make a move.

In the 16th minute, Villa player Lorton broke through from the wing and soon came to the right side of the opponent's penalty area. He tried to pass and failed, and Swansea's Ben Davis blocked the bottom line.

Villa got the first corner kick of the game.

It was only then that Jose discovered that Swansea's Ben Davies was a 19-year-old youth player who had shown very good potential.

Villa's corner kick was taken, the first point was caught by the Swansea player, the ball was ejected out of the penalty area, and the second point fell on the edge of the penalty area.

At this time, Lowton just came to the second landing point. He didn't make any stop adjustments, and volleyed directly, and the ball flew directly into the goal.

Lowton's volley is very exciting, definitely a genuine world wave.

Jose, who had been sitting quietly on the bench all this time, couldn't help standing up and applauding. He faintly felt that he might not be able to pounce on this shot if he cooperated with stunts.

Relying on Lowton's goal, Villa gained a one-goal lead.

However, the good times did not last long.

In the 25th minute, Villa goalkeeper Guzan made a rash attack. Not only did he fail to save the Swansea player's shot, he even knocked down the Swansea player Michu in the penalty area without touching the ball. on the ground.

"Beep, beep..." Two whistles sounded.

Hearing the whistle, the Villa fans sighed in the stands.

A foul in the penalty area and a penalty kick cannot escape.

However, the referee reached into his pocket while running towards the penalty area.

red card!

The referee showed Guzan a ruby ​​card.

"Hush..." There were bursts of boos from the Villa fans' stands.

In addition to booing, Villa fans can't help but worry, will it be reversed again?
At this moment, the system automatically popped up the light curtain.

[New task announcement: save the opponent's penalty kick, reward 2000 points, reward a random attribute increase by 5.00%, reward silver treasure chest*2, no reward for failure. 】

[New task: Defeat the opponent with teammates, reward points 2000 points, reward silver treasure chest*2, no reward for draw or loss. 】

[Zero seal task: Save all shots (including own goals), reward points 3000 points, reward silver treasure chest*2, no reward for failure. 】

...

Guzan was sent off, Lambert could only be passively substituted, and there was only one goalkeeper on the bench, Jose, so Jose could only rush into battle.

Villa striker Weiman was replaced and Jose came to the goal.

"The goalkeeper of the summer transfer bid came off the bench. It's a pity that he will face a penalty kick as soon as he comes on the field." The on-site commentator said.

live chat room.

"Poor Villa's substitute goalkeeper, who has a rare chance to play, but concedes a goal first."

"This Villa goalkeeper is so young, with black hair and yellow skin, why does he look so Chinese?"

"What does it mean to look like a Chinese? He belongs to our Huaxia."

"He is not only from Huaxia, but also one of the top bidders in the summer transfer window."

"Who are you kidding? He doesn't look 18 years old. Villa will buy a young goalkeeper at a high price for the king?"

"Another person who doesn't pay attention to the news. Jose is indeed not 18 years old, but it is not Villa who bought him, but Chelsea. He is now rented back to Villa."

"Abu is really a fool with a lot of money."

"Whether people are stupid and have a lot of money, just look at it."

……

Due to the sudden incident, Jose didn't have time to warm up at all, he could only stretch his hands and feet a little in front of the goal.

It was Michu who took the penalty kick for Swansea.

"Huh? A left-footed player." When Michu started to run up, Jose found clues from his running, and thus judged that the opponent was a left-footed player.

"Time and space pause."

The moment Michu shot the ball, Jose decisively used stunts. Although he was 100% sure of judging the direction of the opponent's shot, he did not hesitate to ensure [-]% success.

When space and time resumed circulation, people only saw an afterimage rushing toward the ball shot by Mi Chu.

With the world watching, Jose saved Michu's penalty with unbelievable speed.

"It came out." The live commentator shouted excitedly.

Although the opponent's penalty kick was saved, Jose did not celebrate, but looked up at the ball's landing point. He had to be careful of the supplementary shots of other Swansea players.

Sure enough, the more you worry about something, the more something will appear.

The ball that was blocked by Jose was rolling in the direction of Swansea player Danny Graham.

Graham is going to make a follow-up shot!
