reborn football boss

Chapter 98
Hoddle is no longer able to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai at this time, and he has been unable to score a goal to equalize the score when he has an absolute advantage. This is definitely not what he wants to see.

Physical exhaustion is not the biggest problem for Tottenham at this time, because physical problems are equal to both parties. Notts County is also not feeling well. Only mental anxiety is the biggest crisis for Tottenham.

On a big stage like the League Cup final, no one's mentality can be completely calm. Even the emperor's superstar will have a somewhat strange mentality. This is human nature.

However, if you become a lagging side and are unable to equalize the score for a long time, no matter how good the mentality is, you will inevitably become anxious, which will affect your judgment of the situation on the court, affect your choice of ball handling, and affect you. The actions of one's own feet, this series of influences are definitely not something anyone can get rid of.

The Tottenham players are facing such a crisis situation. Time is passing by quickly. Even if they suppress Notts County in the half and are unable to counterattack, it will not help. Football is not a game that judges the outcome based on the situation on the field. The final decision The result of the game is only the scoreboard on the field. If the score is behind, it is not the same thing if it is said that it is ten thousand.

Hoddle kept telling the players not to be impatient on the sidelines, but the game has reached this level, the coach's control of the situation on the court has been completely reduced to the minimum, and it cannot be completely dominated by two thoughtful players.

The transfer of Tottenham players is speeding up, even they don't feel it. At the same time, the ball has changed from more walking on the ground to more high-altitude balls. From the perspective of professionals, Tottenham's football It has been unreasonable.

No matter how Hoddle shouted, it couldn't change the situation on the field. Tottenham's offense was still fierce and disorderly, relying on the header ability of the two strikers and the long shots from the outside to hit the Notts County goal.

Loew keenly observed this, and suddenly calmed down a lot. If Tottenham continue to fight like this, it will be the situation he hopes to see. He is really afraid that Tottenham will slowly infiltrate Notts County by relying on the advantage of a large number of people. cannibalized.

Notts County has no substitutions, so Loew can only expect the performance of the players on the field.

The Notts County players on the field also clearly felt that Tottenham's stormy offensive just now suddenly became a breeze. Although the momentum is still great, it is far behind when it comes to the real threat.

But even so, because the coach Loew did not make tactical adjustments on the spot, the Notts County players still defended step by step. Anyway, as long as they keep the score, they will win the trophy at the end of the game. They don’t need to change. .

When the ball was dead again, Hoddle had to make personnel adjustments and go straight up and down. This is rare, but in order to strengthen the offense, this is also a helpless choice.

I have to admit that the strength of Tottenham may not be comparable to that of the giants, but when it is really desperate, the tactical quality and temperament of the Premier League team are suddenly highlighted.

The three new players not only shouldered the task of strengthening the offense, but also brought Hoddle the important task of stabilizing the mentality of the players on the field.

Tottenham's offensive style changed quickly with this adjustment, and once again became more reasonable. Although the mentality of the players was still restless, they calmed down more and more when it was time to fight desperately. Hoddle passed This adjustment regained control of the team on the field.

At the same time, Hoddle also aimed at Notts County's intensive defense and urged the players to make more free kicks and corner kicks in sensitive areas. This kind of positioning kick tactic is definitely an absolute tactic to break the dense defense.

In the 76th minute of the second half, Tottenham Ledley King, who had been at the back to control Notts County's counterattack, suddenly dribbled in, causing chaos at the front of Notts County's penalty area, and it was his sudden kick that almost missed Breaking through the Notts County goal, if it weren't for bad luck to go above the crossbar, it might not be this situation anymore.

David looked at this young defender of Tottenham, but he was very jealous. He had to admit that if it hadn't been affected by injuries, this outstanding British native defender would definitely have the potential of a world-class central defender. Perhaps the only one in Tottenham's team David is the only one who can catch his eye.

But it is a pity that Ledley King played for Tottenham throughout his career until he retired due to injury. He can be regarded as a typical loyal minister. This kind of player is difficult to be tempted. In addition, David has countless central defenders in his heart. A good seedling will never want to poach Tottenham.

I only have one Notts County, so I can't include all the stars!

In the 78th minute of the second half, Tottenham's offense made a comeback. This time, Sheringham's retreat caused a foul by Meireles. The referee decisively awarded a direct free kick at the top of the penalty area.

Although the Tottenham players were not only satisfied with a free kick in a good position, several players surrounded the referee to put pressure on him. You must know that Meireles already had a yellow card. Disappointed, Notts County will have two fewer people to fight, what an advantage this will be!
"Go away, his actions are not dangerous at all, don't you think you are playing a house game on the court, you can't even touch it!"

"Don't interfere with the referee's decision!"

"Sir, this is definitely not a yellow card action!"

Several Notts County players also rushed to help the referee clear the siege, and at the same time stood up to cheer for Meirelles.

In fact, the referee didn't hesitate at all at this time, and signaled the players to leave and stand at the penalty spot without any superfluous expression. Obviously, he would not send Meireles off.

The Tottenham players left resentfully, preparing for this free kick, and there was not much time left. Since the goal was not achieved, they stopped entangled, and there was no time to waste.

But at this time, it was the turn of the Notts County players to play.

Because the referee has suspended the game, this time the free kick must wait until the referee blows the whistle before it can be taken, so the Notts County players are not worried at all that Tottenham will quickly take the free kick.

First of all, Ben Foster solemnly directed several Notts County players to set up the human wall, but he was never satisfied. The expression on his face was very angry, and he yelled at these players to move according to his instructions It's almost like scolding people directly.

"Go to the left, don't leave a gap, talk about you, Harvey, don't think you are the captain, I dare not talk about you! And you, Andres, you are short in the first place, what kind of wall did you line up in the past? , I'm afraid that others won't punish you from the top of your head, aren't you?..."

And these few players who lined up on the wall also turned their heads and glared, as if they were about to start an internal strife.

David looked at the seemingly disharmonious scene, but he didn't even frown. On the contrary, he even laughed so hard in his heart.

These guys are all acting school!
