Center

Chapter 212 The first time

The first home performance of the new season was messed up. This is definitely not good news for McAllister and his Leeds United team, but it is a good opportunity for Long Bisheng.

Although Suo Wenmi scored the first goal of Leeds United's official game of the new season, in the second game he exposed his relatively rough skills, as well as the shortcomings of insufficient tactical execution intention and inability to effectively cooperate with teammates after working hard from the lower leagues.

With his physical fitness and impact, he is very effective against those teams that are not too good at tall central defenders, but once he encounters the opponent's defense line with tacit cooperation, there are two defenders who are not much shorter than him, and his role on the field is very limited.

In this regard, Long Bisheng has his unique advantages. After all, he has received the most formal training since he officially started playing football. The season he played the most in his career was in Serie B. Compared with League A, the level of Serie B is still higher. After he came off the bench in the last game, Leeds United's offense was obviously much more organized, but the time left for Leeds United and Long Bisheng was too short, and the opponent's intensive defense would be a headache for anyone.

Originally, in McAllister's mind, the three forwards capable of playing the main force, except for Beckford, the top scorer, Suo Wenmi and Long Bisheng competed to play the other main forward. Since Suo Wenmi's performance was mediocre in the last game, it is logical to use Long Bisheng this time.

What's more, compared with two forwards who can fight independently and two forwards who can form a certain cooperation on the field, the effect of the former on the field may not be as good as the latter, even if the tacit understanding of the latter is not too high.

Before the third round away game against Orville, Long Bisheng put on the yellow vest symbolizing the main team in training.

McAllister is very satisfied with the effect of the training—although it is impossible for Long Bisheng and Beckford to form a tacit understanding so quickly during more than a month of training—the two are not geniuses who can easily form cooperation with anyone. ... These things are the things that Long Bisheng has done the most on the field in the past few years, and now he is very familiar with them.

What Ding Yu said before is correct. Long Bisheng playing this tactical center is a matter of being willing to be a green leaf. It may be very important, but it is definitely not good...

****************************************
On the evening of Saturday, August 23rd, at the Hushi Park Stadium in Orville, Long Bisheng, wearing the No. [-] jersey of Leeds United, stood at the kick-off point in the middle circle, squinting at the opponent's goal-today's game is just an ordinary league game, but for Long Bisheng, it has a special meaning-this game will be his first start in an official game on behalf of Leeds United!
Of course, this is not a big news in the eyes of the reporters - how many professional players are there in Europe?How many players transfer each season?How many players are likely to debut each round?It doesn't even count!Aside from the superstars who make waves in the transfer market, who pays attention to other lesser-known players who represent a team for the first time?At most, it is just a casual mention in the news report. If you become famous after a few years, maybe someone will dig up this news and use it as a lace news...

But in the eyes of Long Bisheng, whether it was representing Qingdao Haifeng for the first time in the Chinese League One, representing Naples in the Serie C League for the first time, or representing Leeds United in the League One League for the first time, the significance of each time is quite different.

The first appearance on behalf of Qingdao Haifeng means that he has officially stepped into the professional football circle. From that day on, the financial problems that had plagued him in his youth no longer exist. Although his income is still only at the bottom of the professional player circle, in today's highly developed professional league, a few years is enough for him to earn a huge income that ordinary people may not be able to earn in their lifetime.

Representing Naples for the first time means that he has officially set foot in European football. For a Chinese player, whether he can set foot in Europe is a watershed in his career. If he succeeds, he will be famous in China. There is absolutely no problem.

But this time, it means that he has found his own steadfast path again. Although he is not yet [-], not the year of the weak crown, but he already has the rudimentary state of mind that has seen the ebb and flow of the tide and is not surprised by favor or humiliation.

People often have to go through ups and downs before they can really mature. Long Bisheng's character belongs to the kind of person who is down-to-earth and will keep working hard when he sees the goal. But maybe God deliberately wants to joke with him, but his development is full of ups and downs, which is completely inconsistent with his personality.

When he was young, no one expected him to become a professional player, but he was suddenly favored by Yunjiatianyu Football Academy, which has the number one youth training in China. In Yunjiatianyu Football Academy, he was the worst player in terms of foundation and talent, but those with better foundations and talents were eliminated, but he persisted and became one of the seven best players in that group of players. He became the second player in this group of players to play in the country where the four major European leagues are located, and became the first player to play in the top league a year and a half later-
But for Long Bisheng, the peak and the trough are so close to each other. When other friends have gradually approached the top league, he has become one of the players in the League One... The unpredictability of the world can be seen.

It can be seen that the saying that character determines destiny is not necessarily correct. Sometimes God likes to joke with people, but it is a joke to him, and it is a tragedy to the person who is joked.

A long whistle sounded, and the game started. Long Bisheng gently passed the ball to Beckford, and then ran forward by himself.

Delph takes the ball in the midfield. This young midfielder who is nearly two years younger than Long Bisheng has gradually become the main force of Leeds United since the beginning of this season. He is a leader in the youth team of Leeds United. He played in the first team last season, but his position overlapped with last season's captain Alan Thompson and he did not get many opportunities to play. After Thompson retired this season, Delph's chances to play will naturally increase. , The performance in the two league games was not bad. Although there was also a loss of calmness in the last game, but in that kind of environment, who can expect a young man to be able to keep calm.

And after the last game, the head coach McAllister was furious about the players' uncalmness on the field. Although he didn't target any one person—it couldn't be targeted, because almost all of them were uncalm—but for young players like Delph, such a warning was enough to make them be careful.

Now Delph is very calm. When he saw the opponent's two midfielders double-teaming him, he did not rely on his technique and speed to break through the opponent forcefully. Instead, he flicked his foot and distributed the ball to the side!

The right back Howson, who also came from the Leeds youth team, comfortably received Delph's pass. Now there is only one defender in front of him to block him. Howson moved the ball forward while receiving the ball.

Richardson, who was born in 27, is only 01 years old this year, but he is the only Leeds United player who has experienced the "Youth Guards" era. Since he was promoted to the first team in [-], he has been a substitute for the old captain Gary Kelly. After Kelly announced his retirement last season, he naturally took over Kelly's class and became Leeds United's main right back.

Like Kelly, he is also a player with strong assist ability. After receiving the pass from Howson, he immediately forced the ball to the baseline, and then lobbed the ball directly into the penalty area before the opposing defender tackled it.

Long Bisheng was fighting for the position with the opponent's defender. He had already relied on his strong body to squeeze the opponent out of balance, but Richardson's cross was not to him at the front, but to Beckford at the back.

Beckford also fought for the position with his opponent, but his physical confrontation ability was much worse than that of Long Bisheng. It was a bit unrealistic to swing his head and attack the goal when he barely occupied the landing point.

As soon as the ball was pushed out, Beckford sighed inwardly. When the ball was headed, the opponent just hit him behind him. Although it was not heavy, it made him shake his head with more force, and it probably hit the top of Long Bisheng's head.

Sure enough, as soon as Long Bisheng raised his head, he saw the ball flying over his head and then began to fall.

After all, it was a header ferry, and the power would not be very strong. After flying over Long Bisheng's head, his strength was almost exhausted, but there was no one behind Long Bisheng, and the nearest one was a defender of Orville.

Off the field, McAllister sighed regretfully. The attack just now has formed a cooperation. At least Long Bisheng’s initial cover and Beckford’s ferry were good. It’s a pity that Beckford’s head was a little higher, and Long Bisheng took off a little slower. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the opponent’s goalkeeper to respond to such a close-range header, unless the ball happened to hit him.

At this moment, McAllister and the substitute players on the bench opened their mouths in surprise at the same time!
Seeing the ball flying over his head, Long Bisheng turned around almost subconsciously—the poor defender who was guarding him was squeezed by him so hard that he almost stuck behind his back and turned around afterward—after turning around, Long Bisheng saw that the ball was about to fall. Without thinking, Long Bisheng raised his right leg instinctively, and with the power of his turn, he slammed the ball up!
The success rate of this kind of shooting is very low. After all, the preparation time left for people is only about one second. During this process, the contact part of the foot and the ball must be aligned, and the force must be accurate, so that the ball flies towards the goal. This kind of shooting can only score one out of ten in training.

But this shot was a success!Following Long Bisheng's right foot kicking the ball fiercely, the ball immediately galloped away like a horse being whipped, and flew directly into the goal!
The ball flew into the goal against the inside of the post, and then hit the net hard, shaking the snow-white net suddenly!
In just 1 minute of the opening, Leeds United led [-]-[-] in the away game!

After scoring the goal, Long Bisheng opened his arms the moment he saw the ball hit the net, and then ran to the sidelines. When he ran past Beckford, Beckford missed him and ran behind him!
Long Bisheng rushed directly to the stands where the fans of the visiting team were, waved his fists and roared loudly, venting the depression accumulated over the year to his heart's content, what greeted him was the uniform singing of the Leeds fans!
Immediately afterwards, Beckford jumped onto Long Bisheng's back from behind and waved his fist towards the stands!

Carrying a big man with a height of 1.8 meters eight and a weight of 83 kilograms on his back, Long Bisheng didn't seem to be struggling at all. When Beckford was still shaking his fists, Long Bisheng had already turned around and walked towards the court with him on his back.

Seeing this scene in the eyes of the Leeds fans, they all looked at each other in dismay-this guy is in better health, right?They could see clearly that when Beckford jumped up just now, Long Bisheng's upper body only swayed slightly.

"This guy is a monster." A Leeds fan murmured, "I've never seen a person with such a stable center of gravity, and he's a big man over two meters."

PS: I pray for my youngest cousin and the students who took the college entrance examination this year. It’s not easy for you.
