our champion dream

Chapter 18 Watching the game from the bench
Xu Ban and Chen Bin sat on the bench, looking around curiously like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.

This is the first time they have been on the bench since college.

In the process of looking around, Li Xiaoming found that there were a lot more spectators in the stands beside the runway than before. Under the publicity of the university, the event organization and the local media, this national college student competition also aroused some student parties. and football people's attention.

In the morning game, BIT defeated Hainan University 1-0, which was united and wanted to compete for a place.After this game, BIT and L Datong ranked first in the group with six points, so the match between L University and Dalian Ocean University became a veritable warm-up match.

Compared with the group rankings, Xu Ban pays more attention to the status of his players.In order to ensure the physical condition of the core players in the next knockout round, Xu Ban also specially arranged for Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin, the absolute heroes of the first two games, to sit on the bench.

Another reason for choosing to rotate is because the knockout round is different from the group stage, and the intensity and chance of the competition will be higher.Through rotation, let the players in your team adjust their status through a genuine national competition, and also enrich your tactical choices in the knockout round.

Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin were replaced by midfielder Jiang Anheling, who had been performing well as a substitute before, and Li Ruinan, a left-footer who served as a left winger.

Xu Ban also made corresponding tactical adjustments. Jiang An and Bai Sen formed a solid backcourt defense, while Li Ruinan became the team's left winger.

At the beginning of the game, Li Ruinan, who made his debut for the first time, was very active.With plenty of stamina, he frequently used his speed on the left to create murderous intent.

The team has confirmed that Dalian Ocean University’s performance on the field is sleepwalking. There have been various low-level stoppages and passing mistakes many times, resulting in the situation on the field being fully controlled.

Compared with Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin's side-to-side combination and more three-dimensional attack on the field, this big L on the field pays more attention to the breakthrough attack from the side. After all, they have a big man who is firmly in the The opponent's restricted area.

In the 15th minute of the game, Wei Wei got the football and went to the right side. Zhang Qingchen also broke through and made a pass in the face of the opposite full-back's absent-minded defense.

The cross was of high quality and caused chaos in the Dalian Ocean University penalty area.

And Li Ruinan, who crossed from the left side to the penalty area, found an opportunity in front of the goal. After receiving the football from someone, he volleyed vigorously.

Li Ruinan, who scored the goal, was very excited, and even ran to the sidelines to give Xu Ban a hug, and hugged every player on the bench.

The reason why Li Ruinan was so excited was because he never expected to start in the national competition, and even start his first game with a goal.

There is no better start than this.

After the goal, L was big, and the offense was even more impressive.Wang Ming got a lot of chances to jump high on the dry land in the penalty area. If it weren't for the Dalian Ocean University goalkeeper's impressive performance in the first half of the game, he tried to keep the goal, and perhaps welcome Dalian Ocean University. It will be a bloody bloodbath.

The one-to-zero score remained until halftime.

Xu Ban was obviously very satisfied with the players on the court. He always took the game seriously and seriously, and it was rare for him to smile when he greeted his disciples off the court.

He didn't think such a Dalian Ocean University could turn the tables. A team that had been completely defeated didn't even have the style on the court, let alone win the game.Therefore, during the adjustment of the midfield, there was laughter and laughter in the L stadium.

At the start of the second half of the game, I don’t know if it was during the intermission that my coach blew it with a loud hair dryer. In the second half, Dalian Ocean University gradually showed what it should have.

In the No. 60 minute of the game, Dalian Ocean University also found the best chance of the game.

All L members overwhelmed the half-court attack. When Wang Ming was about to shoot, he was intercepted by the opponent's central defender to clear the siege.

The ball was kicked high and far, and directly hit the frontcourt of Dalian Ocean University, which is the backcourt of L University.The empty backcourt can even allow Dalian Ocean University's forwards to run wild.

The forward of Dalian Ocean University also seized this opportunity to get in in time, and single-handedly scored the goal of L University alone.

Goalkeeper Liu Fei has always been known for his quick response and precise timing of single-handed strikes.Faced with this one-shot, he was very focused and attacked in time, carefully handling the predicted direction of the shot.

Facing the attack of the opposing striker, Liu Fei lowered his center of gravity after attacking, predicted the position of the opponent's shot, and made a beautiful save to the left. The football shot by the striker of Dalian Ocean University was caught by Liu Fei's fingertips. Rubbed, changed the direction of the movement, and missed the goal.

Another corner kick from Dalian Ocean University did not pose any threat.Zhong Shijia jumped high and pushed the ball out of the penalty area, and Wei Wei also firmly controlled the ball under his feet.

"Li Xiaoming, Chen Bin, warm up and get ready to play."

In Xu Ban's mind, replacing Li Xiaoming and Chen Bin had two intentions.One is to help the team stabilize the fruits of victory through their playing, and the other is to allow them to maintain the state and rhythm of the game during the game and better prepare for the knockout round.

In the 70th minute of the game, under the reminder of the fourth assistant referee, the referee blew the whistle to suspend the game.

The two standing on the sidelines waiting for substitutions could even hear the audience talking a lot louder after they saw themselves on the field.

The people watching was completed quickly, and the game continued.

If Li Xiaoming is on the court, no matter what form he is in, he is a commander who can keep his mind clear and calm.

Then Chen Bin is the most passionate on the field, a fanatical believer in pursuit of goals and victory.

And Chen Bin, who was sitting on the sidelines, could no longer hold back the boiling fighting blood in his body. After playing, the raging little devil in his body was eager to try.

Competition No. 707 minutes, Chen Bin's personal performance moment came.

He received a pass from Wei Wei in the frontcourt when his back was facing the attacking direction.But while catching the ball, he completed his turn. He swung the football behind him with his heels, then turned around and wiped past the Dalian Ocean University players who were defending him.

However, Chen Bin's starting speed was too fast and his movements were too agile, so that even if the defensive player who defended him wanted to foul, he didn't have time... After he turned around, he could only watch Chen Bin go away.
After Chen Bin turned around and broke through the player defending him, other defenders rushed towards him, trying to stop him outside.

Facing the Dalian Ocean University players who came up to defend him, Chen Bin did not wait for his teammates to come up to cooperate with him, but accelerated his dribbling, so the players defending him also accelerated to chase Chen Bin.

But at this moment, Chen Bin used the sole of his left foot to move the football to the right while running at high speed, and his body also moved sideways.But the defensive player from Dalian Ocean University was caught off guard, and was just dodged by Chen Bin. Chen Bin who dodged the opponent suddenly accelerated again, and instantly got rid of another defensive player behind him.

Then he dribbled the ball inside and sprinted into the penalty area like a sharp dagger.

The other defenders rushed towards Chen Bin, looking like they were going to surround him heavily.

But at this moment, Chen Bin shot the goal suddenly. Under Qing Kuang, who had almost no running space, Chen Bin's shot was so sudden that the Dalian Ocean University players who surrounded him did not expect it at all.

When the players from Dalian Ocean University swarmed up to surround Chen Bin, the advantage was naturally that it limited the space for Chen Bin to hold the ball, preventing him from performing the scene of one after another.

But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the goalkeeper of Dalian Ocean University cannot see Chen Bin at all.He was surrounded by his teammates.blocks the defense's view
When the football suddenly came out of the encirclement, he subconsciously made a saving action, which was completely instinctive.

It must be said that the goalkeeper of Dalian Ocean University responded quickly, but although he stretched his arms, he could not touch the football.

The football still flew over his fingertips, and then without any suspense... flew into the goal.
