Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 81 Salted Fish Theory

"Guys, come here and introduce some new friends to you!"

After active operations, before the winter transfer window closed, Antwerp finally completed the signings.Not only loaned four players from Manchester United, but also recalled Christopher, who had played for the team.

The signings didn't attract much attention in Belgium, but they made waves in Antwerp.In particular, Christopher's joining again has caused dissatisfaction among many fans.Although Christopher has repeatedly stated that he will not participate in gambling and will not be involved in gambling again, he has not been able to get the understanding of the fans.

This made the ambitious Van Acker feel a little worried in his heart. He didn't know whether the players could accept Christopher.

"Christopher, why is he back?"

"Does he still want to play football?"

"He is a scumbag, he still has the face to appear here!"

For signings, the players maintain a positive attitude. After all, the stronger the team is, the better they will be able to achieve in the league.

But when Christopher appeared on the sidelines, the players immediately chattered up.

"Who is Christopher?"

Standing among his teammates, Yu Liang recognized four of them at a glance.

They are Floribel Niggarola, Darren Gibson, Jonathan Evans and Fraser Campbell, all from the United youth and reserve teams.

Hearing his teammates talking about Christopher, Yu Liang couldn't help being curious.

"He played here in the past few seasons and likes to gamble. I heard that he seems to be involved in gambling!"

Hearing what King Dong said, Yu Liang understood.

Why are many teammates repelling Christopher? No one wants an unstable factor in their team.But in this case, why did Van Acker recruit Christopher back?
"Is he great?"

Looking at Christopher's nearly 1.9-meter-high figure, Yu Liang continued to ask King Dong beside him.Such a strong and tall central defender can indeed put a lot of pressure on the opponent's forward when defending.

"It's very powerful, with strong air defense and man-marking capabilities. The most important thing is that his turning speed is not slow and he is very flexible!"

Listening to King Dong's comments, Yu Liang could easily understand why Van Ake recruited this notorious player back.

"Hi, I'm Christopher!"

"Hi, I'm Yu, you can call me Madman!"

Just after talking to King Dong, Willox led them over.Behind Christopher is Yu Liang's teammate of Manchester United, so no need to introduce.

After everyone got to know each other for a while, they quickly got into training.

The big victory in the last round of the league swept away the haze of consecutive rounds of invincibility, and the atmosphere in the training ground was quite relaxed.

Three days after the new aid joined the team, they ushered in the league's No.20 opponent, Deniz, at home.Since the start of the second stage of the league, Deniz has only achieved two victories. The total points of the league ranks at the bottom of the league, and he is deeply trapped in the relegation zone.

For such a relegation team, it should not be underestimated. They can often burst out powerful energy in adversity.So even after three days, they will go to the away game to challenge Bill Short. In this game, Van Aker still sent the strongest lineup in his hand.

On the front line, Dong Wang still beats Lukovic and Oguen as the single arrow. He has scored 10 goals in the league and is currently ranked third in the league's scorer list. A goal is very likely to become the first player among Chinese players in Europe to win personal honors.

In the midfield, Di Gregorio is the front midfielder, Suleimani and Verbister are the two wings, and Yu Liang and Ferjans are paired with the double midfielder.

On the back line, the left back is Cedric, the center back is Mihem and Lawan, and the right back is the teenager Laert.

The position of the goalkeeper is still captain Willox.

Several players signed in the winter failed to enter the starting lineup. Only Christopher and Niggalola entered the squad.

After the start of the game, Antwerp, which was playing at home, launched a wild bombing under the cheers and cheers of the fans.

Using the assault from the side, he made frequent passes, creating opportunities for King Dong to attack with a header.Although Dong Wang had the upper hand in the process of fighting for the top, but the number of shots that really threatened the goal was not many.On the contrary, Di Gregorio's sudden shots in the middle from time to time pose a greater threat to the opponent's goal.

In defense, under the interception of Ferjans and Yu Liang, it is basically difficult for the opponent's offense to pass through the midfield.

In this way, the two sides were in a stalemate for less than 20 minutes, and Deniz's city gate was declared lost.

In the 18th minute, Ferjans made a steal in the middle circle and scored Yu Liang.After getting the ball, Yu Liang made a direct pass to Di Gregorio in the frontcourt.After Di Gregorio cooperated with Welbist on the wing, he entered the penalty area from the ribs, and after attracting the defense, he passed Welbister back with his heel.Wellbist crossed Dong Wangwang in the middle, and Dong Wangwang carried the opponent's central defender with his right foot and pushed into the net, scoring the No.11 goal in his league.

1-0!

After taking the lead, the Antwerp players felt a little relaxed.

In the 27th minute, Yu Liang's return pass was weak and was intercepted by the opponent's player, forming a counterattack and equalizing the score.

1-1!

Yu Liang was very annoyed at the loss. After the game restarted, he wanted to instigate an attack to overtake the score.

But the players who had slacked off couldn't put all their energy into the offense. In the end, the two sides returned to the locker room with a score of 1-1.

"I'd love to know what you guys think in the game? To get promoted? Man, in our state, wanting to get promoted in the league is a big joke! Isn't it Yu?"

Yu Liang, who sat silently on the seat, could feel the anger in Fan Ake's heart.

Indeed, he was 100% responsible for the conceded goal, and he could not refute it.

"I don't care what you think in your head, even if it's the third page girl of The Sun! But in the game, please concentrate, any mistake may cause the loss of the game! Don't you want to lose the bet with Jason? ?"

"No sir, I know what to do!"

After joining Antwerp, this was the first time Yu Liang felt Van Acker's anger.Listening to Fan Ake's words, Yu Liang couldn't help but feel a little hot.

"OK! Guys, I know your thoughts. But please put away your ridiculous thoughts. Facing any opponent, we are not qualified to hold back in the game! Victory, what I want is victory!"

After speaking, Van Aker left the locker room directly.

"Yu, don't worry, the head coach has no other intentions!"

After Van Aker left the locker room, Captain Willox left and came over.

"Don't worry! Captain, I know! But we really can't afford to lose, we need to win! What's more, I want the team to upgrade!"

When he said this, a smile appeared on Yu Liang's face.

"Don't worry! Madman, we will definitely upgrade! We won't let you act and eat football!"

"Hahaha……"

The second half of the game started quickly. The players who were scolded by Van Ak in the midfield started to fight aggressively immediately after the game started.

The active fighting of the players soon yielded results.

In the 48th minute, Ferjans made a sudden forward move and made a steal in the opponent's half, directly creating a counterattack opportunity.After Di Gregorio received the pass from Ferjans, he was assigned directly to the right. Laerte, who inserted at high speed, faced the opponent's defensive player, directly used his own speed to make a strong breakthrough, and then slammed into the top corner of the penalty area. A spike nearby, after throwing off the opponent's defender, made a direct pass.

The football crossed the middle with an external spin and came directly to the back point. After keeping up with Soleimani, he calmly adjusted and made another pass after receiving the ball.

The football crossed the front point and accurately found King Dong in the middle of the penalty area.

Facing the incoming ball, King Dong hit hard, and the football flew directly into the near corner, 2-1!

After leading again, the players did not let up.

In the 52nd minute, they extended the score again, this time it was Di Gregorio who scored.After receiving a pass from a teammate, he shot directly from outside the penalty area and scored, 3-1!

After gaining the advantage of two goals, Van Aker immediately made adjustments.Although they are not qualified to have reservations in the game, they are leading by two goals at the moment, and he must prepare for the next cup game against Bill Short.

The offensive hero King Dong was replaced with Oguen.When King Dong left the field, there was applause immediately in the stadium. Van Ake's substitution was also a reward for King Dong.

Shortly after making adjustments on the front line, Van Aker made adjustments to the defense line, replacing Mihem and replacing Biga.

The signal released by Van Acker did not weaken Antwerp's offensive.

In the 70th minute, Antwerp took advantage of a set kick and scored a goal from Rawan, rewriting the score to 4-1, and firmly grasping the victory.

After Lawan scored this goal, Van Aker made another substitution, replacing Di Gregorio with Niggalola to continue to strengthen the defense.

In the end, at home, Antwerp beat Deniz 4-1, and the league has won two consecutive victories.

The two consecutive victories in the league also made the players have greater expectations for the midweek game.

When interviewed after the game, many players expressed their hope to beat Bill Short in the middle of the week and advance to the semi-finals of the cup.

"Jinjin, hi, Chinese, are you right?"

When interviewed by reporters, Yu Liang also expressed his willingness to advance.

This made Jason on the side very upset, and looked at Yu Liang with anger: "You lost the game 0-2 in the first round, do you think you can do it?"

"Why not?"

"To qualify means you have to score more than three goals in the Stadio Olimpico. I don't think you can do that!"

A smile appeared on Jason's face when he said this. He has always maintained confidence in Bill Short's offense.

"Although the difficulty is not small, it does not mean that we cannot do it!"

"Are you guys dreaming?"

"Maybe! But if a person lives without dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?"

After finishing speaking, Yu Liang didn't care whether Jason understood the meaning of the sentence, and left the court directly...
