Chapter 51

"beep"

With the whistle of the referee, the second half of the game began.

Soon, Roberts realized that something was wrong.

what happened?

Isn't the person in charge of the midfield organization and scheduling of Crystal Palace that Simeone?
It turned out to be the 16-year-old who just came on the field?
What is this kid's name?

Roberts hurriedly took the registration list from the assistant coach, looked down for a long time, and finally found Fabregas' name.

When he looked up again, the ball just fell to Fabregas' feet.

I saw him unhurriedly pulling and dunking, and after passing an Ipswich Town player, he didn't look up at all, and directly kicked the ball, and the ball flew to Ronaldo accurately.

"hiss"

Roberts gasped.

Just the detail that Fabregas accurately sent a long pass without looking up made Roberts feel tight.

This 16-year-old child is not simple. He has observed the position of his companion in advance, and predicted the direction and distance that the companion will move.

No wonder the Chinese man would replace him with this 16-year-old kid. It turned out that this was his surprise soldier.

Roberts glanced at Chen Ran from afar, and it seemed that he still underestimated the Hua countryman.

This guy has been hiding his backhand, and in the first half he pretended to be weak on the counterattack, just trying to trick himself into changing formations and attacking.

It was so despicable, so shameless, and so insidious.

Roberts angrily wanted to catch Chen Ran and beat him up. He had just set up a second-half attack during the intermission. What should we do now?
Do you want to change back immediately?

If this is really the case, the team members will doubt their decision, right?How can it change like this?Just because the other party replaced a 16-year-old kid?

Roberts felt that he couldn't convince himself, let alone those players.

But if no adjustments are made, in case Fabregas can really play the role of Guardiola, then Crystal Palace's sharp counterattack, can Ipswich Town withstand it?
For a moment, Roberts hesitated.

At this time, Chen Ran couldn't control Roberts' troubles.He was pleased to see that after Cesc Fabregas came on the field, Crystal Palace's midfield scheduling became much smoother immediately.

Although no effective shots have been formed yet, Ronaldo and Ribery can already get the ball comfortably.

The power of Ronaldo and Ribery can only be revealed when the ball is at the feet of Ronaldo and Ribery.Otherwise, they are just guns without bullets, no matter how powerful they are, they are just for display.

Everything is moving in a good direction.

In the 58th minute, the turning point finally appeared.

This time, Fabregas found Toni with a long ball from the back. Toni leaned on the defender, stopped the ball with his chest, and then distributed it to Ribery on the right.

Ribery used his speed to shake off the Ipswich Town players who were following him, and dribbled the ball all the way to the bottom line.

Then he passed the ball into the penalty area before the defending defender blocked it.

Since Crystal Palace is now adopting Simeone's defensive counterattack tactics, there is only Tony as a striker in the penalty area.

The two central defenders of Ipswich had been given clear instructions from Roberts before the game to defend Tony and must double-team.

So, although Ribery successfully made a bottom cross.But Tony, like the patty in a hamburger, was tightly sandwiched in the middle, unable to exert force at all.

The ball was successfully pushed out of the penalty area by Ipswich Town's central defender.

At this time, a thin figure just appeared at the place where the ball fell.

It's Modric.

I saw that he didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, and came up with a volley.

"boom!"

Modric's basic skills are very solid. He stretched the top of his feet straight, almost at a 90-degree right angle to the ground.

The ball seemed to have been whipped hard, fast and flat, and went straight into the upper left corner of the Ipswich Town goal.

"Goal"

Crystal Palace 1:0 Ipswich Town.

"Oh"

The Selhurst Park Stadium, which was dull throughout the first half, once again sounded like a tsunami of cheers.

"Fxxxk!"

Roberts on the sidelines couldn't help scolding.

Sure enough!
At this moment, he hated Chen Ran's meanness, shamelessness, and insidiousness so much that he dug holes and set traps for him.

At the same time, he also hated his own indecision, clearly aware of the danger, but did not make adjustments in time.

Chen Ran on the other side also saw Roberts' annoyed appearance in front of the Ipswich Town bench, and smiled slightly.

Seeing that my arrangement has achieved the expected results, the sense of accomplishment, the kind of comfort, goes straight to the sky.

No, you have to be reserved, and you can't show a smug expression, that's too superficial.

Pretending to be invisible is the highest level.

Chen Ran secretly warned himself.

At this time, not far from the bench, a camera was shooting at him.

Chen Ran coughed, tried hard to control his facial expression, and returned to the bench calmly and sat down.

Let's see how Ipswich Town responds next.

After an advanced goal, Crystal Palace took the initiative.

Whether Ipswich continue to attack or retreat to defend is a big problem, which is enough for Roberts to have a headache.

Chen Ran had already thought clearly that if Ipswich Town continued to attack, then Crystal Palace's defensive counterattack might continue to expand the results.

If the opponent shrinks back to defend, then Chen Ran doesn't plan to change his tactics, and everyone just defends together.

If the game is ugly, it is ugly, and getting three points is the most realistic.

Sitting on the bench, Chen Ran's focus was no longer on the game.

His eyes flicked to the Ipswich bench from time to time to see if Roberts had changed or not.

At this time, Roberts was once again caught in a tangle.

He was really unwilling to leave empty-handed like this.

Crystal Palace has lost a central midfielder.

What a great opportunity to score points, it would be a pity to miss it.

However, seeing Crystal Palace's sharp counterattack came out again, if the defense is not strengthened, it is very likely to lose the ball again.

How to do?How to do?How to do?
Roberts plucked his hair violently, feeling like he was going crazy.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and fought hard.

The big deal is losing, and losing to the top team in the league is not ashamed.

Therefore, under Chen Ran's attention, Roberts did not make any changes, and Ipswich Town continued to maintain its offensive posture.

This time, the whole process of the game entered the familiar rhythm of Crystal Palace.

Toni and substitute Crouch scored a goal apiece for the rest of the game to extend the lead to three goals.

Ipswich City only scored a goal directly through a free kick in stoppage time.

In the end, Crystal Palace defeated Ipswich Town as a guest 3:1 at home.

In the first league game without Guardiola, the winning streak continued.

Chen Ran also received another 100 million euros.

And off the pitch, his plans to put pressure on the FA have also seen major developments.
