Chapter 10 The Referee is the Protagonist
Defoe, who was very unfriendly to Bowyer's response, seemed to be a little angry, and West Ham's next attack.Joe Cole passed the ball to Defoe, and Bowyer reached out to ask for it, but Defoe buried his headband, and was finally tackled by Dawson, who never responded to Bowyer's response.

Watching the football get easily picked up by the Forest players and then fight back.Bowyer, who was in the midfield, was not the first to go up to block, but ran straight to Defoe who had just got up from the ground.

"Are you fucking blind? Can't you see that I'm asking you for a ball?" He yelled at Defoe, who was six years younger than him.

Defoe was not to be outdone: "Then what did you do when I asked you for the ball?"

The two exchanged words on the court, completely ignoring the reality of the game being played.

"You nigger son of a bitch!" Bowyer slapped Defoe across the face, knocking him to the ground.There was a huge booing immediately in the stands, which did not mean dissatisfaction, but booing.Forest fans are booing for the two.

Dawson, who was not far from the two, rushed over and pulled the angry Bowyer away, only to avoid his next punch and kick to Defoe.The referee's sharp and piercing whistle sounded immediately, and the players on the West Ham United team rushed to the scene of the incident after a brief stunned moment. Except for Dawson, everyone else in the Forest team was watching the show.Reid even watched the head coach's reaction off the court first.

Unexpectedly, he was very surprised to see the head coach.

Tang En was surprised because: he remembered that Bowyer and his teammates had a brawl during the game on April 2005, 4, during the Premier League match between Newcastle and Aston Villa.Before that, I had never heard of this guy hitting his teammates on the field.Tang En believes that after today's game, this matter will become a household name overnight after media hype.So will the incident in Newcastle still exist... He never felt that his appearance here would have any impact in the future, but now he feels it personally.

The future...is not as sure as he thought.

No matter what Tang En thought in his heart, the fans of the Forest team were overjoyed.They immediately changed the lyrics to the previous song: "Lee Bowyer is a good boxer, a beautiful left uppercut, Defoe fell to the ground! The referee is counting the seconds, oh yeah!"

Rhodes slammed a bottle of water on the ground on the sidelines: "This damn idiot!" The current situation of the team is very tense, and it will be even more difficult if one person is sent off.

Mortensen screamed from the commentary booth: "Bowyer punched and he knocked out Defoe beautifully! But he seems to have forgotten that this is football, not boxing. That disgusting Bowyer is back He's completely confused about the situation, West Ham will pay for it, they will definitely have one less man. It was an unbelievable scene, and I believe that this punch of his after the game will put him on the top of the list. Big newspaper headlines, first time I've ever seen a player attack a teammate during a game! Lee Bowyer made history and he will always be 'remembered' for it!"

Tang En quickly put the fear of the future behind him. He stood up and walked to the sidelines, giving a thumbs up to the "invisible hero" Reed who caused this scene.Then he made the team press forward properly, Joe Cole was frozen, and West Ham's midfield without Bowyer was no longer terrible. Although Defoe was a pure victim in this brawl, he will not be punished. , but his mentality and state will also be affected. If Rhodes is smart enough, Defoe will not stay on the court for a few more minutes.

West Ham's attack has no threat.The rest of the time depends on how the forest team regains all the lost points one by one.

The referee showed a red card to Lee Bowyer who hit someone, without any suspense.There was a huge roar of laughter and boos from the stands, and Bowyer turned to the field with an angry face, ignoring his West Ham teammates.Rhodes was also very dissatisfied with Bowyer's actions. He stood on the sidelines and let Bowyer pass by him and walked into the empty player tunnel.At this moment, Bowyer, who had just transferred from Leeds United, was alone.

Defoe was helped by the team doctor to the sidelines for examination and treatment.The referee signaled the players of both sides to fight for the ball near the midfield.

The situation on the court for this game was basically settled, but Twain did not return to the coach's bench.He stands on the sidelines with his arms folded, ready to celebrate a goal at any moment.

He believes that the final victory of this game must belong to his team, because the second half has been going according to his plan so far, and it is impossible for any accidents to happen again.

West Ham, who had one less man to fight, had to fully recover, and the Forest players who were playing in form became extremely difficult to defend in their eyes. Many times they had to resort to fouls to stop the opponent's crazy offensive.And this just gave Jess, who came off the bench in the second half, a chance to perform.The two direct free kicks were of extremely high quality, one flew out against the crossbar, and the other was saved from the baseline by James in embarrassment.

Seeing these two free kicks, Tang En couldn't help hugging his head on the sidelines, sighing.To use the words of Fu Biao in "Big Wrist": "Just a little bit, just a little bit!"

When the game progressed to the No. 80 minute of the game, the Forest team finally got a chance for a lore.

Reed made a breakthrough cross with the ball from the wing, and Gary Breen, who was replaced in the second half, topped the baseline, and the Forest team got a corner kick.

As long as Jess is on the pitch, set-pieces are definitely his prerogative.He hugged the football and put it on the corner flag area, then stepped back and leaned against the billboard, with the Forest fans stand behind him.Countless hands patted his shoulders to encourage him.The fans shouted excitedly: "Jess! Send the ball straight in! You can do it!"

Jess turned around and looked at the fans shouting so with a smile.Fans always talk about difficult things as if three-year-olds can do them. In fact, this is a way for them to express their emotions. They always have high expectations for the players they like.The fans yelling like this shows that they have let go of their barriers against the Forest players.

Dawson was originally cruising outside the restricted area, but he soon heard Tang En yelling from the sidelines: "Michael, what are you doing outside? Come in for me! Go to the door!"

Dawson is tall and has a great header. At the age of 19, he has grown 1.9 meters tall, and he is indeed a threat from the air in front of the opponent's goal.He ran in obediently, which immediately made James nervous.

"Look at him! Watch him! Don't let him jump up...Damn it!" Before James could finish speaking, he heard the referee blow his whistle.And Jess also sent the ball out.

Responsible for defending Dawson is West Ham's starting central defender Ian Pierce, also 1.9 meters tall, only he can compete with Dawson in height.

But in terms of jumping, he was much worse. Dawson still jumped high under the double-teaming of two people, and hit the goal with a beautiful head shake!

James had nothing to do with the shot that was close at hand. He watched the football fly into the goal!
"Boom!" The city stadium boiled again.

"Michael Dawson! This is his first goal in the Forest team! A central defender who is only 19 years old!"

"Nice job!" Tang En shook his fist fiercely after seeing the football fly into the net.

Forest players also throw to the excited Dawson, ready to score.But at this moment, everyone heard the referee's hasty whistle. He stood in front of the door, pointing his finger to his feet. There lay Ian Pierce!
"Goal disallowed! What a surprise situation...Michael Dawson's goal was disallowed. The referee thought he was over Ian Pierce in the jump. But obviously... well, the sidelines seemed What happened?" Following Mortensen's voice, the TV camera cut to the sidelines, the Forest team's bench.

Tang En kicked away the water bottle placed on the sidelines, very angry.In his opinion, this was a goal that was too good to be good, but it was blown out by the referee inexplicably.This act of venting brought him the "care" of the fourth official.

"Mr. Tang En, you'd better restrain yourself. I don't want the referee to come over and give you a red card, and I don't think you want that either?" The fourth official walked up to Tang En and severely reprimanded him. .

At this time, Tang En really wanted to swear, but he was pulled back by Walker.

"I'm really sorry, I promise that this kind of thing won't happen again..." Walker dragged Tang En back with great effort, while turning his head to apologize to the fourth official.

"Let go of me, Des! That damned referee is trying to find a balance..." Dunn was still resigned.This time Walker simply covered his mouth.

"Shut up, Tony! Do you want us to lose the most important person? The game is not over yet, we still have a chance!" At this moment, Des Walker, who was always smiling and pretending to be a good old man, scolded himself seriously. Boss, Tang En was stunned.Then he straightened up and scratched his head: "You're right, Des. I almost missed something. Thank you for reminding me."

Then he turned back to the sidelines and shouted loudly to the inside: "Don't worry about it, keep attacking! We still have a chance..." In the end, he still couldn't help venting his dissatisfaction, "Fuck them to death! !"

The fourth official heard Tang En's words and looked sideways at him, but finally did not bother him.

"Michael Dawson looked a little downcast. His first goal for Forest's first team just disappeared. But he's a good lad, a great centre-back with potential and I'm sure in time he'll be a A new star in England's defense." Mortensen predicted Dawson's future, but for now, he could not comfort the young man's heart.He doesn't think about becoming an illusory thing like England's defense star now, he just wants to help the team beat West Ham.It was a very good opportunity just now...

Dawson could swear on his future, he definitely didn't compete for the top just now.If Pierce really fell to the ground because of physical contact with himself, there is only one explanation-Pierce is too good at pretending.

asshole!Dawson clenched his fists, and the defender also flopped!

Tang En continued to stand on the sidelines with his hands crossed over his chest.

So far, this game has satisfied him, because it helped him solve several troubles: First, his new style has been fully displayed and accepted by everyone.Secondly, it helped him establish enough prestige in the team.In the end, he found his confidence and direction.

What about my only regret...

Tang En looked up at the electronic scoreboard on the west stand.

With less than 7 minutes left in the game, the score was still 2:3. The forest team, which had the advantage in the second half, fell behind the Premier League West Ham United by one goal.
