song of the saints

Chapter 60
The Portsmouth central defender stepped forward to interfere, and was led by Prudton in one step, ready to shoot!The goalkeeper has made a save!

The commentator said excitedly: "Oh! Prudden didn't shoot the goal! Lightly pass the ball to the far end of the goal with his right foot! A red and white figure rushed to the horse! Delap got the ball! Delap faced the empty goal! Dali Shot! Goal in! Delicate coordination! Impressive! Portsmouth defenders are like marionettes. Southampton leads Portsmouth 1-0."

Chen Zhun held his breath to watch his pre-battle offensive routine. The moment Delap shot into the empty goal, Chen Zhun rose into the air, raised his arms and shouted!And raised his hands to interact with the audience in the field, indicating that the fans' shouts were louder.

"Southampton! Victory! Southampton! Victory! There is only one team on the south coast! Southampton!" The red and white ocean was filled with happiness.But the game had just passed 10 minutes.

Redknapp, the head coach of Portsmouth, did not expect Chen Zhun to change his tactical routine and open a breakthrough in his own middle. Originally, he wanted to use fouls to curb the rhythm of Southampton's game, but his cleverness was rejected. He was clever and wrong, but the stone fell on him, and now he can only attack with his hands and feet.

Chen Zhun also signaled to the players to slow down the pace of the game now, stabilize their position, and play positional battles with Portsmouth.

In the 15th minute of the game, Fernandez took the ball from the left and was tackled by Portsmouth left-back De Geu.The referee gave a verbal warning.

In the 17th minute of the game, Portsmouth striker Lualua broke through the frontcourt and was tackled by Dela Pulian with the ball. The referee gave a verbal warning.

In the 20th minute of the game, Kevin Phillips dribbled the ball and was brought down by central defender Primus. The referee Ball showed the first yellow card.

In these 5 minutes, the two teams did not have a chance to shoot, and almost concentrated the battlefield in the midfield.The scene of people turning their backs on their backs can be seen everywhere.

The fight continued in a scramble, both sides seemingly forgetting that this was a football match, not a wrestling match.Excessive shoveling will first arouse the inner anger of the players on both sides, and second, it will cause players to be injured.

The game in the first half came to an end, No. 305 minutes, the score was still 1-0.The Portsmouth team saw that they were still unable to open the situation on the court, and their actions became more and more serious.Kevin Phillips received a pass from Delap in the frontcourt and just wanted to turn around to get rid of Faye's defense, but he was knocked to the ground by him, but Kevin Phillips was afraid of being hurt by Faye, so he jumped. But it was just such a jump that allowed Faye to find an opportunity, and immediately quietly stretched his right foot to the place where Phillips landed.

"Ah!!" A scream resounded through St. Mary's Stadium, tragic and tragic.Phillips stepped on Faye's right foot with his left foot and fell to the ground.Chen Zhun saw all this clearly with his eyes, and the moment he fell to the ground, he immediately raised his hand to signal that Faye fouled on purpose!

And the players on the field were completely ignited because of Faye's extremely unsportsmanlike foul.James Beatty rushed up immediately and pushed away the fake Faye. Another Portsmouth midfielder, Kuaxie, was not happy to see his players being pushed away by Beatty. Come running and head to head with Beatty.Other Southampton players came from all directions and surrounded them.At this time, Faye no longer had the complacency he had just now, and he knew what consequences his kick would bring.Portsmouth's players also rushed to the scene of the incident, the scene was chaotic, the players crowded and shoved each other.Faye became the key point. Because the players of the two teams were mixed together, Faye's arms and butt were kicked several times by someone.

The referee Ball also rushed to the crowd while calling the team doctor, trying to control the situation on the field, but the situation was out of control. The fans of the visiting team Portsmouth would not sit idly by at this moment, and a few sporadic people rushed in to join the battle Among them, a large number of police and security guards rushed into the crowd to prevent further expansion of the situation.

The bench players and coaches of the two teams also rushed into the field, some were fighting, some were fighting.Ball looked at all this with a feeling of doom, and he felt that his refereeing career might be over.Today's law enforcement is too soft, causing the situation on the court to gradually become irreversible, and Boll will definitely blame him.

The fighting is still going on here, and Phillips has been helped out of the venue by the medical staff.

Chen Zhun did not participate in this battle. He clearly knew that now he could not let the FA get any handle.Chen Zhun walked up to Phillips who was covered with ice.

"Hey, Kevin, I heard from the team doctor that it's just a minor injury, and it will be fine after a week of rest, cheer up!"

"Boss, it's terrible!" Phillips said dejectedly watching the farce in the arena.

At this time, the stadium was calmed down under the joint control of the coaches of each team and the police, and the rioting fans were also taken away by the police.The mentality of the players has also stabilized. The battle is over, and it will be time to settle accounts after the fall.The referee Ball first showed a red card to Faye, the perpetrator, and then showed a yellow card to the players Beatty, Quiaxie and Portsmouth assistant coach who had obvious behaviors in the battle.

Chen Zhun also had to replace Phillips with Pajas.

The last game of the first half was not exciting either. After halftime, the score was fixed at 1-0.Southampton entered the dressing room with a one-goal advantage.

Chen Zhun clearly saw the anger in the eyes of the players in the team locker room, which made him feel a little worried.When the riots occurred on the field, the old Portsmouth coach Redknapp looked very relaxed, as if everything had nothing to do with him, and the situation was calm.

At this time, Chen Zhun knew that the old Redknapp was trying to arouse the anger in the Southampton team's player center, making them pay less attention to the game.It now appears that the old Leitou's scheme has succeeded.

What Chen Zhun needs to do is to suppress the anger of the players and wake them up.

Chen Zhun clapped his hands, trying to get the players to focus on himself, and said loudly: "Everyone performed very well in the first half, we were very calm in front of the Portsmouth game, and the opponent sent off One man, this is a good advantage for us. I hope you will keep your heads clear in the second half. Play according to the tactics of the first half! Do you understand!"

"Understood!" The rustling voice drifted through the locker room.

"What? Are you afraid of being shoveled by Portsmouth? Or do you also want to shovel them with color?"

"We saw the anger in your eyes, and you are aggrieved by Kevin's injury, then use the most primitive method on the football field to beat them! Goal! Goal! I hope you don't die in the second half, if you want to stand up for me die!"

The locker room was silent.
