atypical center forward

Chapter 13 Because I Can Goal
Adrian kicked the turf depressingly. The opponent's defender followed too closely, and he shot the ball very reluctantly just now.

"It's okay, Adrian, there is still a chance." Moya secretly sighed and greeted him.

"I know, Cesc, the midfielder is up to you, so you can rest assured to leave it to me." Adrian promised quickly.

The players on the court were still regretting the ball just now, but Gressel's expression changed drastically off the court.

The Ameari players who had been passively defending suddenly began to press forward, and even the defenders came near the center line, leaving Moya and Adrian who had just completed an offense behind the offside line.

"Back to defense! Back to defense! Go back to defense!"

Valencia's players on the field were not rookies, so they responded quickly, but after the goal kick was taken, it was quickly snatched by Ameyari.

Ameyari's field captain, Marchena, took the ball and found his left midfielder with a precise long pass. The opponent adjusted a little after receiving the ball, and then dribbled the ball straight to the bottom line, throwing off the defense of Valencia full-back Busque, and directly passed a long pass to the goal.

Everyone looked into the penalty area nervously, only to see a tall figure jumping high, overwhelming Antonio and hitting the ball hard.

That was William Nathan. He was 1.9 meters tall. He had a strong body and excellent bounce. He had a bit of technical problems with his feet, but his header skills were top-notch. For him, such shots were as easy as eating.

Cayo reacted quickly and made a save in time, but unfortunately although he touched the ball, he could not prevent it from entering the net.

1: 0.

The Mestalla Stadium, which was still bustling just now, suddenly became much quieter, only a small poke fan of the visiting team suddenly jumped up and cheered heartily.

Is there anything better than celebrating a goal in the opposing team's territory?
"William Nathan's header changed the situation on the field. Now it's only No. 203 minutes. Ameyari scored the goal in the first attack, and Valencia will fall into a passive position."

Ugo seems to have decided to play against Mikel today, saying: "That's right, it's only 23 minutes now, and there is still a chance."

Mikel didn't argue with him, but brought up the goal, saying: "This is the most common offensive routine of Ameyari this season. Simple and rough long pass, the midfielder finds the wing, and then crosses from the wing. The typical English style. Of course, this routine requires a high center forward who is good at heading. William Nathan, who Brady brought from England, is the best candidate. He has scored six headers this season."

Ameyari's players rushed to the sidelines, crushed William Nathan, who was as strong as a bear, and cheered heartily.

As long as they win this game, they can get rid of Valencia by five points, and most of the threats behind them can be solved.

Gressel called Busque to the sidelines and gave orders until the game resumed.

After taking the lead, Ameyari did not play iron barrels in his own half, but played more cautiously. He has been entangled with Valencia in the midfield. Valencia's single center Adrian seems to be doing nothing in the opponent's penalty area.

Neither side got any good chances. Gressel's arrangement had some effect, and the opponent's wings were contained, but Valencia was also dragged into the midfield for a scuffle. Until the end of the half, Moya was brought down by the opponent's midfielder at the front of the penalty area, and Valencia won a direct free kick.

"This is a position on the right side of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal, and now it's Cesc's performance time."

Gressel put his hands in his pockets and stood coolly on the sidelines, while Brady folded his arms and stared intently at Moya, as if trying to shoot his free kick away with his mind.

Now it is the final stage of stoppage time, Valencia squeezed in except goalkeeper Cayo, and players from both sides stood in Ameyari's half.

Adrian and Lucio were stuck in the penalty area, tightly held by the opponent's defender, while the others were scattered around the wall, waiting for supplementary shots at any time.

As the referee's whistle sounded, Moya quickly ran up, swung his legs, and shot.

This ball is of high quality, and it is the deciduous ball he is best at. This kind of ball has a very tricky angle. When it flies to the goal, there will be an obvious drop, making it difficult for the goalkeeper to guard against.

"Brilliant shot, the ball went around the wall, inside the frame, oh, it was saved, the ball went to Lucio, there was still a chance."

Moya waved Hui's hand in frustration. He thought he had it, but he didn't expect the opponent's goalkeeper to be able to hit it. Seeing that Lucio, who was holding the ball, was surrounded, he hurried forward to meet him.

Lucio's footwork is far less delicate than Moya's, and it is very difficult to protect the ball. After seeing Moya, he quickly passed the ball. Who knew that the opponent's defensive player was already prepared, and he directly kicked out to cut off his pass.

The ball came to Ameyari's midfielder, and the opponent kicked the ball without looking at it.

Feeling bad, Gressel hurried to the fourth official and shouted, "Hey, what's going on? The stoppage time has passed."

"Calm down, Mr. Marco, the game is not over until the referee's whistle blows."

"Nonsense! I'm now wondering why his damn whistle didn't go off, give me a reasonable explanation, or I'll complain to the FA!"

"Pay attention to your attitude, Coach Marco, otherwise I don't mind letting you calm down in the stands."

In just a few words between them, the situation on the field changed suddenly.

The ball passed by the Ameyari midfielder was high but not far, was grabbed by William Nathan, and the header was given to another striker, Eduardo.

Brady still plays the game of one high and one fast in the last century, with Nathan in charge of high and Eduardo in charge of fast.

Compared with the tall and strong Nathan, Eduardo is like a pocket man. After receiving the ball, he rushed to Valencia's half with a light stroke.

"Eduardo received the ball, there was no one in front of him, they were in their own half, so the ball was onside, Antonio and Busque were chasing it back like crazy, but it didn't work, Eduardo was too fast, he should be in the sprints and not the football."

Eduardo rode into the penalty area under the watchful eyes of the audience, facing Kayo who was attacking, calmly shot the ball into the far corner.

2: 0.

Gressel glanced at Eduardo who flew to the sidelines to hug Brady, turned and walked into the locker room.

No one knows what happened in Valencia's locker room during the intermission. In short, after the start of the second half, Valencia's players were crazy, fighting aggressively and attacking sharply, but Ameari had already started a firm defense.

Time passed quietly. Chu Yang, who had been sitting on the bench for nearly seven or ten minutes, was very depressed. The team had already changed two players, but the head coach had no intention of replacing him. He simply stood up and walked towards Gressel.

"What's the matter, Chu?" Heike Onnes looked at Chu Yang who stood up and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing, just discuss something with the boss."

"Um, I know how you feel, but..."

"No, you don't know." Chu Yang interrupted him unhappily.

Mom came all the way here just to watch a losing battle where her son didn't even get to play?What is this called.

"Boss." Chu Yang came to the sidelines and stood beside Gressel.

Gressel, who was nervously observing the situation on the field, was taken aback, turned to look at him, frowned and said, "What's going on?"

"I want to play." Chu Yang said directly.

"You want to play?" Gressel laughed angrily, pointing to other players on the bench, "They also want to play, why should I replace you?"

"Because I can score goals."
