Chapter 224 Where is this place?

No. In 207 minutes, the Watford striker picked a pass to his teammate on the right side of the penalty area near the midfield. "Bumblebee" No. [-]'s beautiful chest stopped the ball and surprised everyone. Under the applause of thousands of spectators, the latter dribbled the ball Into the penalty area, a strong shot, the ball was saved by Sasha to the bottom line.

Subsequently, Notts County got a good chance to set the ball. Abelardo, Carvalho, and Curtis Jr. all went to the Watford penalty area to grab a spot, but Guardiola's ball was very poor. Ideal, was directly cleared by the Watford players, the No. [-] player of the Hornets dribbled the ball and rushed directly into the penalty area.

In the blink of an eye, only four young players from Notts County chased back. It wasn't because the veterans didn't work hard, but because they couldn't keep up with the speed, and they had more heart than legs.

Watford No. [-] still dodged the shot angle under the immature defense of the young Notts County players. The advantage of numbers may not play a decisive role in the defense. Watford No. [-] hit the near corner with his left foot. Saved by Notts County goalkeeper Sasha.

Wei Xun was also watching from the sidelines, his heart skipping a beat. Thanks to Sasha also moved a little outside, slightly sealing some shot angles. If he squatted safely on the goal line, the ball would probably be lost.

"Experience!"

No. In the 306th minute, Dario Hubner passed the defender on the right side and entered the penalty area. He glanced at the player's position in the penalty area and did not choose to shoot. The young player Alex Dovey shot with his right foot. Under the pressure of the opponent's central defender, Alex Dovey made too much effort and the ball hit high...

According to Wei Xun's temper, he couldn't even score this goal, and he would definitely beat Alex's ass when he went back.

Hubnell somewhat hated iron and steel, but he was relieved, who didn't come here like this, Hubnell walked over and touched Alex Dovey's hair, "Alex , continue, next time you fight first, then shoot, you have been squeezed out of space, someone bumped into you, you lost your balance, at this time you have to exert strength, and in the end it is very likely to hit high."

The experienced No. 59 veteran Hubner stroked the head of the No. [-] young player Alex Dovey. This scene was photographed by many journalists and friends, including Elena of "The Fan". It is inevitable to go back Make a cover or a special feature, dig out the career mileage and interesting stories of two people, the sales volume is estimated to be not bad.

Before the end of the first half, the "Bumblebee" No. [-] steals the young player Fleury from the left side of the penalty area, then volleys into the penalty area from a small angle, and is blocked by the Dutch defender Ezaias. The ball bounces to the middle of the penalty area and outflanks it. The Watford player shot in front of the goal, and Sasha saved the latter's shot.

The referee looked at his watch, and didn't give Watford a chance to take a corner kick. He blew the whistle to end the first half. Because of this, the Watford players were still arguing around the referee. I want an explanation.

During the intermission, Wei Xun and Guardiola also focused on encouragement. The performance of the young people was quite satisfactory. Although there were some mistakes, they did not concede a goal. If Notts County can win a draw in this game, Guardiola is acceptable. After all, the game between the two biggest competitors has ended in a draw. In this game, as long as Notts County does not lose, they can continue to be in a favorable position.

Hubnell had some discomfort in his calf. Georgia and the physical therapist helped him with emergency treatment. It was suggested that it would be best not to continue playing the game, but Hubnell insisted on finishing the game. After all, Notts County’s There are really no reliable forwards on the bench, and it is obviously unrealistic to keep the tie by relying on defense alone.

These guys from Notts County, to be honest, their defense is a bit pitted...

At the beginning of the second half, Watford got a good chance to attack. Epiia failed to steal. The Watford full-back successfully received a through pass from his teammate on the right. There is an open field in front of him. Just open yourself at full speed It took only a moment for the small motor to enter the penalty area, but it was a pity that as soon as he started to speed up, the linesman raised the flag to indicate that he was offside first.

……

In 6 minutes, Watford No. 45 player sent a through pass from the right side of the front field. No. [-] "Bumblebee" got the ball and went into the penalty area. He shot with his right foot and hit the far corner of the goal, but was saved by goalkeeper Sasha.A few minutes later, it was the same "Bumblebee" No. [-]. He got the ball in the middle of the frontcourt and broke through the defense of the two young people in Notts County with speed. Perhaps such a loose defense made him inflate. meters, the guy took a long shot with his right foot.

The ball missed the goal and flew out of the baseline, and it was a bit outrageous.

No.609 minutes, the Watford striker received a free kick from the team's midfielder and completed a volley from the left side of the penalty area, which was shot out of the baseline by Notts County goalkeeper Sachato. Watford Germany won a corner kick.

Judging from the height of the players on the field, Watford has an absolute advantage. Notts County is only taller than Esaias. Carvalho and Kosti Jr. are not as tall as their two central defenders. Needless to say, other people's big centers.

The Watford team's left corner kick was taken out quickly, and the placement was not very good, but the No. [-] who went forward still ferried the ball near the bottom line on the right side of the small penalty area to the middle of the penalty area, keeping up with Watford The German central defender squeezed away the defense of Curtis Jr. and Carvalho, stretched his legs to block the ball, and changed the trajectory of the ball.

The ball slid past Sasha's face and into the goal, giving Watford the lead at home as the Vicarage Road crowd completely overwhelmed the 300-odd Notts County Expedition supporters.

Although the ball was not scored by himself, "Bumblebee" No. [-] definitely had the highest level of excitement. He took off his jersey excitedly, rushed to the main stand of Vicar Road Stadium, and waved the Watford jersey in his hand. Shout out to the fans:
"Where is this?"

"Preacher Road!"

"who are we?"

"Watford!"

"Watford..."

"Victory! Victory! Victory!"

Sitting in the audience, Wei Xun wanted to scold his mother, so he couldn't help complaining, "Damn it, it's a pity that this guy is not a pyramid scheme. How can he be so good at talking!"

No. 706 minutes, "Bumblebee" No. 35, who just sent an assist, personally took a free kick in the front court made by himself. The ball was not close to the goal, it was 40 meters away, but this guy was far away from 35 meters just now Shot, a non-interfering set-piece, only [-] meters away, even with his ass, he knew he was going to shoot.

"One step to the left, one more step!"

"Okay, just stand here, stand still and don't move!"

Sasha directed the young people to line up the human wall. He estimated that the "Bumblebee" No. [-] should be able to shoot, so he paid special attention to the positioning of the defensive players, and tried not to block his sight.

After the whistle, "Bumblebee" No. [-] shot directly from a free kick. In order not to be blocked by the wall, he had to go around an arc, but he wanted to pursue a fast fall. In the end, he didn't control the angle and the speed of the ball well, and was caught by Sa Sand easily won.

No.804 minutes, due to the decline in physical fitness, the Notts County teenager Fleury made a mistake in stopping the ball in the backcourt, and was intercepted by the "Bumblebee" No. [-]. The latter quickly broke through and completed a shot at the top of the penalty area. Saved by Sasha, the subsequent corner kick was poorly placed, and Sasha who was attacked directly picked it off.

Although there was very little time, the Notts County players did not give up. The fourth official cited the stoppage time, a full 4 minutes, which is not a short time.

Notts County fans, including players on the bench, coaches and Wei Xun himself all stood up, hoping to witness a miracle happen.

In the final stage of stoppage time, Notts County player Alex Dovey received the ball from Hubnell's chest. He turned around in the penalty area and kicked it directly. The ball magically rolled into the goal. This kid made another contribution up!

"Beep beep!"

Alex Dovey's clothes were taken off, and the referee whistled that the goal was invalid!
"Sir, please, I don't have time. Can you take a good look at it? This ball is really important to us!"

"Invalid, offside position to get the ball, the goal is invalid!"

The referee repeated his penalty seriously and earnestly, and signaled the Watford goalkeeper to take a free kick.

Guardiola pulled away Esaias who was trying to reason with the referee. The latter's reputation is well known throughout the League One. The referee hid directly behind Hubner and Guardiola, saying The whistle is still in his mouth, which is his most beneficial self-protection weapon.

Of course, it could also be a self-destruct weapon...

The Notts County man, who didn't give up, got the ball soon after the free kick was taken. The referee has checked his watch. The stoppage time has passed, and the Watford players are constantly reminding the referee , but the referee still signaled to continue the offense, and he was willing to let Notts County finish this wave of offense.

Guardiola kicked the ball in the middle of the penalty area, Hubner completed a header, the ball missed, and the game was over. The referee had given some time to Notts County as appropriate, but Notts County Did not seize this opportunity.

Notts County, which was short of major generals, lost in the end.
