Stand by the last line of defense

Chapter 78 Zheng Style Hairdryer

Zheng Long feels that now that he is the captain, he has the responsibility to make more contributions to the team.

So he reminded Vallejo and asked him to step forward to block the position in advance and not give Sasso a chance to catch the ball.

Seeing that Vallejo was still dawdling, Zheng Long immediately yelled at him impatiently.

Vallejo was a little annoyed, but seeing the captain's armband on Zheng Long's arm woke him up.

If it was before, a conflict with Zheng Long would be a conflict.That's a conflict between the players, the big deal is that they just don't talk to each other when they meet in the future.

But now Zheng Long is the captain of the team, and his status is different.

If I conflict with him at this time, no matter what the reason is.Whether the head coach or the team, they will stand by his side.

He even punished himself in order to maintain the prestige of the captain.

Not to mention, Zheng Long is a guy that the head coach values, and he is also a young talent that the team focuses on training.

When Cristiano Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy had a conflict, didn't Manchester United send Ruud van Nistelrooy, the king of the small penalty area, to Real Madrid at a discount when they transferred in the winter of that season!

If I have a conflict with Zheng Long now.Will the team sit on the bench or send themselves away directly.

Vallejo didn't know, but he didn't dare to gamble.

After being yelled at by Zheng Long, Vallejo had no choice but to run towards Sasso no matter how reluctant he was.

Sure enough, just like Zheng Long's shout, when Sasso advanced.His teammate passed the ball.

Seeing that Sasso was about to receive the ball, Vallejo heard Zheng Long's reminder.

He caught up with the first step, destroyed the ball, and kicked the ball to the frontcourt.

Seeing that the ball was broken, Sasso stopped running and waved his hand angrily.

No. 18 Leon, who wanted to give Sasso a beautiful through pass, was also very regretful.

If I knew it, I would have passed the header.

Pity!
Seeing that Vallejo successfully cleared the siege, Zheng Long hurriedly clapped his hands and shouted: "Good job, Vallejo. Keep going!"

Hearing Zheng Long's praise, Vallejo smiled triumphantly.

But soon he restrained his smile.

How can I be happy just because of Zheng Long's words.

Relying on the identity of the captain to boss around, bastard!
Zheng Long didn't know what Vallejo was thinking in his heart, if he knew, he would definitely complain.

After becoming the captain, Zheng Long became more courageous and let go.

Standing in front of the goal and yelling, commanding the midfielders to move, occupy positions, and organize the defense.

Some players are far away from the ground, Zheng Long is afraid that the other party will not hear, so he often roars loudly.

"Cabrera, watch your back! Be careful Leon!"

"Galareta, don't press too high! You are a defensive midfielder, not a front midfielder!"

"Vallejo, pay attention to Sasso!"

……

When Zheng Long roared, his face would turn red, and sometimes the veins on his neck would appear angrily.

Look like a roaring lion!

If people who don't know see it, it's as if Zheng Long is yelling at his teammates.

Especially when Zheng Long roared in Vallejo's ear, it was like a high-power hair dryer blowing wildly in Vallejo's ear.

Later, in addition to the most widely spread nickname of the Interceptor, Zheng Long was also called a lion and a hair dryer by the majority of fans.

Zheng Long's reminder and arrangement made Zaragoza's defense and the first half even changed from before.

Further stabilized Zaragoza's defense.

Tenerife could no longer pass the ball easily with a few kicks, and hit the ball into Zaragoza's penalty area, forming a situation of playing more and playing less.

Facing Zaragoza's suddenly solid defense, Tenerife's tactics in the first half did not work.

It made them look helpless.

The game came to 61 minutes, and it was still 1-0 on the court, with Zaragoza leading.

As time passed, Tenerife didn't take a shot for nearly 10 minutes, which made their players look a little anxious.

Under the pressure of Galareta, it seemed that he could not send the ball to the penalty area smoothly.

Leon, No. 18 front midfielder, changed direction, opened up a little space, and simply kicked directly outside the penalty area.

As soon as the opponent took a shot, Zheng Long seemed to move his footsteps.

Such a shot is no challenge for Zheng Long.

He threw himself sideways, opened his hands in the air to stop the flying ball, and fell under his body when he fell to the ground.

Seeing it from the sidelines, Popovich waved his arms excitedly.

During the halftime break, his decision to let Zheng Long be the captain was indeed wise and decisive.

Isn't the situation on the field much improved now?
It's a pity that he is too young, and he has only been in the team for less than half a year.

Otherwise, Popovich must have directly accepted him as the captain.

now.I can only be the vice captain, so as to appease the old players.At the same time, it can be regarded as the team's attention to him.

Compared with the excitement of Zaragoza's coach Popovich, the mood of Tenerife's coach is terrible.

Originally, Zheng Long's save technique in front of the goal was terrible.

Now he still has the ability to organize the rear players to arrange the defense.

And most importantly, it's not bad.

In the past, I could bully Zaragoza's poor defense and counterattack.

just now……

With such a monstrous goalkeeper, let no one live!
shouted Manolo, the live commentator.

"Since Zheng Long became the team captain, Zaragoza's defense has greatly improved. Now Tenerife is very easy to score the ball into Zaragoza's penalty area!"

"I didn't know that the interceptor had this ability before. Now it seems that he still has a lot of potential, maybe he is another Kahn!"

……

The stability of the defense gave the players in the center and front greater confidence and opportunities.

Otherwise the opponent is always attacking, the midfielders have to go back to defend and the forwards have to drop back.

Now most of the ball is fighting in the midfield, which makes the striker closer to the opponent's goal and more threatening to the opponent.

In the 73rd minute, the Zaragoza team played a smooth offensive coordination.

Pedro splits to the right, and Melome cuts in and hits the wall with him.

Pedro sent the ball into Tenerife's penalty area, and Baston overwhelmed the opponent's central defender No. 4 Alvarez and headed the ball towards the far corner of the goal.

Carlos on the 30th jumped up immediately, trying to block the ball with one hand.

But when he hadn't even touched the ball, William Jose jumped out by a strange coincidence.

One step faster than Carlos, poked the ball into the goal.

"Goal! In the 73rd minute of the second half, William beat the opponent's goalkeeper and scored the ball!"

"2 to 0, Zaragoza is now leading by 2 goals!"

……

Originally leading by one goal, Zaragoza was very likely to win the game.

Now leading by 2 goals, this victory game is stable.

After celebrating, many fans sat down happily drinking beer while joking with their companions.

"With Zheng Long, our promotion to La Liga this season is basically stable. The final difference is just the first and second rankings. I just don't know when we go to La Liga. Facing Ronaldo, Messi and other super players Superstar, can the interceptor keep the goal?"
