Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 11 Equalizing and Overtaking

The regular time of the game has passed 80 minutes, Zhang Mai decided to stand up and fight hand-to-hand with his opponent.

Zhang Mai exchanged positions with "Big Brother" Powell in the middle, and came to the front area of ​​the penalty area where the defensive forces are most concentrated.

The battle situation was tense, and the teammates' short passes and wall-hitting cooperation all failed. Receiving a ball outside the penalty area was as difficult as grabbing a point.

South Allianz, which was shrinking across the board, wanted to save three points, and the two forwards also returned to the wing, directly facing Powell and Naciendo.

Zhang Mai dribbled and broke through again and again from the middle circle arc, was brought down and then got up to continue, and then was brought down again...

Gradually, Zhang Mai was no longer able to stop Zhang Mai with the one next to him and the one with the help defense. Kenny Watson on the sidelines shouted for the full backs to defend.

At 84 minutes, Zhang Mai once again fell into the defense of three people in the area on the left side of the center. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Bell Badger running out of a short-lived space. flew to the left.

Bell Badger didn't stop the ball, and with a sweep of his left foot, he returned a ground ball that went straight to the penalty spot.

After Zhang Mai passed the ball, he rushed into the penalty area, grabbed his position in front of the opponent's central defender, and when he pulled his right foot back and flashed out of the shooting angle, a strong force from behind pushed him to the ground.

"Qu" The referee's whistle sounded, stern and forceful and a little ups and downs, and Zhang Mai, who fell to the ground, let out a sigh of relief.

Looking back at the referee, the whistle was still in his mouth, and his right arm was raised forward and diagonally, pointing to the penalty spot next to him.

The one who overthrew Zhang Mai was the personal bodyguard that Zhang Mai got rid of. At this time, he was squatting on the ground with his face covered. Several other South Allianz players surrounded the referee emotionally to defend.

The referee was unmoved, pushed away the players around him, walked up to the fouled South Allianz player, and directly drew out the red card.

Zhang Mai ignored this, but found "Big Brother" Powell and asked him to take the penalty.

"I have already scored a goal. Your efforts throughout the game deserve a penalty kick. Take any penalty. If I can make the first one, I can make the second and the third!"

Zhang Mai also pressed his hands down, signaling the excited audience to keep quiet, so that "Brother Dali" Powell can work calmly.

"Big Brother" Powell also lived up to expectations, and broke through the Nan'an United goalkeeper's ten fingers with a powerful and heavy on-the-spot shot.

The audience roared with joy, "Brother Dali" Powell and his teammates ran to the sidelines and danced a war dance of unknown nationality.

"This time Tranmere Tigers - "Big Brother" Powell scored a penalty, Tranmere equalized the score in the 85th minute;

But we must not forget the credit of the little prince Zhang Mai. Zhang Mai contributed to the three goals, and also caused Nan'an United to be sent off a player. Although there is not much time left in the game, we believe that The little prince will make new achievements!

Please observe carefully, our little prince is waking up his ecstatic teammates to resume the game, indicating that the only thing he wants is victory! "

Tommy White's joyful voice echoed in the stadium, and slowly, the whole audience shouted "Victory! Victory!"

……

South Allianz head coach Kenny Watson was very frustrated when the three-goal lead was tied, but he immediately made substitutions to consolidate the defense with one less player.

Two forwards were replaced and two defensive midfielders were added. South Allianz wanted to save a point in the away game.

The slow substitution took another 3 minutes, and the regular time of the game was coming to an end.

South Allianz's penalty area was full of people, and Tranmere played the best scene of the day-bombing the penalty area in turn.

In the 89th minute of the game, Tranmere won a corner kick, which was served by "Big Brother" Powell.

The last attack in regular time came, and Zhang Mai also got into the small restricted area. It was too crowded, so Zhang Mai had to retreat to the large restricted area, aiming at the near corner of the small restricted area line to prepare for the top.

"Big Brother" Powell's corner kick was sharp and flat, heading straight for the near corner.

Zhang Mai rushed two steps forward and reached the small penalty area line. Thanks to his jump speed of 71, he jumped in front of the defender and barely caught the ball.

The ball changed direction and passed the goalkeeper's fingertips straight, and flew into the upper right corner of the goal.

All that remained was the desperate face of the goalkeeper flying in the air.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" The audience exploded, and Tommy White's passionate DJ was instantly submerged in the huge sound waves.

Zhang Mai also roared angrily, took off his shirt and ran to the main stand, still posing in the day-and-day posture of "leaning back 30°C",

It drew enthusiastic responses from the stands.

The excited teammate will not ravage Zhang Mai this time,

Instead, line up in a row behind Zhang Mai, imitating the daily posture of "leaning back 30°C".

The scene exploded to the extreme, and the fans of Tranmere burst into enthusiasm accumulated for several months.

……

South Allianz here is in a hurry, urging the referee to resume the game quickly, after all, there are still 6 minutes of stoppage time.

Zhang Mai was not displeased at being sent a yellow card by the referee, and returned to the field with a smile.

South Allianz, without a striker, broke the boat and sent all the tall players to Tranmere's penalty area, restoring the classic long pass and slamming British style of play.

But Tranmere's whole team is magnificent, only Zhang Mai is left in the midfield, and the rest are all building a meat tower defense line.

The long pass and sling game is inherently inefficient, and now Nan'an United has no choice but to fight for a draw. Maybe they are lucky enough to catch one?

But today's luck is on Tranmere's side, no surprises, South Allianz suffered a heavy blow in the end.

Nan'anlian hoisted the ball into the penalty area, and was cleared to the feet of Naciendo on the left side of the backcourt. In order to clear the siege as soon as possible, Naciendo did not care that Zhang Mai was surrounded by two Nan'anlian defenders. A 40-meter long pass was enough. Kicked over.

Zhang Mai saw the ball flying in the distance, and he struggled with the new bodyguards for a long time before he got stuck. It was impossible to stop the ball and turn around. The staggering Zhang Mai used the arch of his feet to pad the ball towards the sideline. Taking advantage of the bodyguard's stunned moment, Zhang Mai turned around near the sideline and resumed his normal offensive position facing each other.

Although he was forced to the right side of the midfield, there were only two defenders and the goalkeeper in front of Zhang Mai, and the Nan'an United players who were desperately attacking from the rear had no time to return to the defense.

Zhang Mai immediately started along the sideline, threw off the bodyguard with an emergency stop, turned to the left and went straight to the penalty area.

The defender who protected behind scolded his partner for being a waste of nothing, but he didn't dare to step forward to steal it rashly, so he could only retreat slowly, blocking the straight path between Zhang Mai and the goal.

The goalkeeper at the back was also yelling, telling the defender to rush forward, gritted his teeth and rushed out, ready to be the second protector.

Seeing the opponent's goalkeeper coming up, Zhang Mai's left shoulder sank, causing the defender to sway halfway to the left;

Zhang Mai twitched again with the inside of his right foot, and a beautiful right-turning curve ball flew into the opponent's goal.

This heavy blow caused the South Allianz players to collapse immediately, and the referee also blew two short and one long final whistles in time.

There was another burst of cheers from the audience, but it was far less massive than when Zhang Mai scored with a header just now.

It's no wonder, the climax is followed by fatigue, and the audience has exhausted their energy and stamina after the first four goals.

……

But the professional commentator Tommy White still sticks to his post.

"Another one, Zhang Mai, Prince of Tranmere, hat-trick! This is just his starting point, and I have no words to praise this football boy.

I just received the latest information from Zhang Mai, a thousand words can only be turned into one sentence:

For the first time and possibly the last time in my life, on behalf of thousands of loyal Tranmere fans, thank you!Everton Football Club!
OK, that's all for today;

On November 2014, 11, the match between Tranmere and South Allianz in the English League Two ended. The final score was 22:5. I wish you a happy weekend! "
