Big back

Chapter 292 I Am That Chicken
The players who had been scolded for a while all lowered their heads because of the head coach's blatant rage, and the atmosphere in the locker room seemed a little silent.

And in the cold room, a loud voice suddenly sounded.

"Yes, sir, we will do as you ask!"

It was Fan Bizhuang who spoke, without much expression on his face, he just stood up and assured the head coach.

Just watching him standing at attention, taking a rest and patting his chest, makes people want to laugh no matter what.

The response to Fan Bizhuang was two heavy cold snorts. Pellegrini hadn't forgotten to trouble Fan Bizhuang, but now he himself jumped out and settled the old and new scores together.

"Look at what you played in the first half? Running around aimlessly, not being closely connected with your teammates, not giving enough support to the striker, except for the assist in the opening goal, I really can't think of you. What contributions did the team make—perhaps on defense, if you take the initiative to commit fouls, take the initiative to fight the local hard top, take the initiative to apply for a yellow card... If these behaviors are counted, then your contribution is indeed not small!"

Fan Bizhuang lowered his head, remained silent, and had an excellent attitude of admitting his mistakes, acting extremely humble and teachable.

In today's game, during most of the first half, Fan Bizhuang's performance was really average.It is not very appropriate to say that he is invisible, but it really does not highlight his role as a sharp knife on the sidewalk in the past.On the one hand, it may be because the opponent takes good care of him, and there are usually two defensive players around him. On the other hand, as the head coach said, he puts more attention on the "battle" with the opponent. , resulting in lack of concentration in the game.

The recognized "illegitimate children" were reprimanded mercilessly in public. The players were surprised, but also fully realized that the head coach was really angry. Everyone lowered their heads and did not say a word, just listening in silence .

"If your performance doesn't change in the second half, you know what the consequences will be!"

Pellegrini said so in a very strong tone, paused, looked around the room again, and issued his own warning, "You are the same. Whoever's performance does not satisfy me, then he has to come down." ! Whether you want to continue to 'fight' with the other party, or do what you should do first, you can decide for yourself!"

After saying this, Pellegrini slammed the door and left with his assistant, Mr. Ruben, in a rage.

The atmosphere in the locker room is still very oppressive. Everyone can clearly feel the head coach's anger, especially Fan Bizhuang, who is the most beloved, has been told that if he fails to meet the requirements, he will be replaced. They don't think that, The head coach will be merciful and let them go.

After a brief silence, someone finally started talking.Pellegrini's reprimand was obviously very effective. During the verbal conversation, the big guys all said that they should cheer up and completely knock down their opponents in terms of score.

"You're not angry?"

Fan Bizhuang sat in the corner with his head down. Everyone thought he was unhappy because of being coached by Hechi, and they didn't bother him. Riquelme hesitated and sat beside him.

Riquelme was also worried that Fan Bizhuang's face would be swept away in public, and he would feel uncomfortable, so he planned to persuade him.Unexpectedly, when Fan Bizhuang turned his head, what he saw was still that indifferent face, which was no different from before.

"Do you think I should be angry? Don't be funny, Roman, we all know why." Fan Bizhuang responded lightly, and he really couldn't feel any anger from his tone.

Riquelme was a little surprised and looked at him in astonishment.

"Although I haven't been to China, I know that in my motherland, there is a saying called killing chickens to warn monkeys. The head coach wants to show his majesty through some methods, and he also needs to use a strong hand to lead the team at this time , Let the team completely obey his will, so he has to find someone to show his power."

"If you guessed right, you should be the No.1 pick, but in the first half you were one of the few players on the team who performed the most normal and calmest. There is no reason for you, sir, to trouble you, the captain of the field, and me ..."

Fan Bizhuang smiled, pointed to himself, and didn't take it seriously at all: "Unfortunately, I played the role of that chicken temporarily."

"I realize that I really underestimate you, Fan, you are smarter than I imagined." Riquelme admired softly, "Now that you understand, I can rest assured."

"Actually, I'm just cooperating with my husband's 'performance', so there's nothing wrong with it. My performance in the first half was really not good!"

Riquelme smiled: "So in the second half you need to work harder to help the team expand the lead."

Fan Bizhuang nodded: "It's natural."

.....................................................................................................................

After Pellegrini left the locker room, he walked straight to the coach's bench on the sidelines. After he sat down, he found his assistant hesitating behind him.

"Is something wrong?"

Mr. Ruben hesitated for a moment, and said: "Sir, just now you criticized Fan so... so much in front of everyone, will this embarrass him? You know, he is just a big boy after all, and young people are very young. It's a good face, you're like this..."

Pellegrini was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect the assistant to mention this matter.Pellegrini couldn't laugh or cry when he thought of Fan Bizhuang furtively winking at him while bowing his head in a serious listening gesture.

"Do you think Fan has a lump in his heart?" Pellegrini saw Mr. Ruben nodding, shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Don't think about it, just like that elf Fan, he has already guessed what I want to do .What a clever brat..."

Pellegrini finally sighed, thinking of himself who has always been calm and introverted, because of the arrival of Fan Bizhuang, both work and life have more colors and fun, and he couldn't help showing a smile on his face meaning.

.....................................................................................................................

After a 15-minute break, players from both sides returned to the court, and after switching sides, the game continued.

Valencia obviously also made changes and adjustments during the intermission. Compared with the first half, they played more patiently and restrainedly.In the first half, they just buried their heads in the attack. After getting the ball, they kept rushing forward. After losing the ball, they tried their best to make physical contact with their opponents, almost playing with brute force.

But now, Valencia is paying more attention to the ball at their feet. They will not give up the ball easily.

This is the style of a real strong team. In the second half of the first half, both teams performed extremely abnormally and fell short of standards.

After adjustments, Valencia, who has suppressed his enthusiasm and emotions, has a methodical advancement strategy that is more layered and threatening.

Of course, Villarreal is not inferior. After receiving the warning from the head coach, they temporarily suppressed their emotions and concentrated all their energy on the game. They are not in a hurry, they also resort to their best passing style of play, continuous rapid transfer, and use a wide range of scheduling and passing to find flaws in the opponent's defense.

Although the excitement is temporarily suppressed, exciting scenes still appear from time to time. The strength of the two teams is not bad, and there are not a few stars in the team. The overall theme of the game is still dominated by confrontation , You come and I attack extremely lively, the rhythm is extremely fast.

Judging from the performance of both sides at this stage, each other's attention is completely on the game itself.

But for experienced fans of the derby, it is very clear that the current calm is only temporary, and as time goes by, more exciting and ups and downs of the plot are yet to come.

"The two sides competed fiercely for the initiative on the court. The difference in strength between the two teams is very small. Whoever can gain the upper hand at this stage will most likely win the game!" Alsace commented Dao said, "It is worth mentioning that although we failed to score again, the opponent also has nothing to do with us, so we are still leading by one goal. As the game progresses, Valencia will gradually become anxious. This is our goal. The advantages!"

"It's just a lucky lead. It doesn't mean anything. A Valencia team that puts all their energy into it is terrifying. Even in an away game, they are capable of scoring goals!" Correa responded without showing weakness , "I have no doubts about this!"

Alsace opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but the sudden change of the situation on the court made him speechless.

The two teams played against each other on the court, neither of them had an advantage, and neither of them fell into a disadvantage.But the balance will always be broken. In the No. 13 minute of the second half, that is, 8 minutes into the game, Valencia, who had been looking for a flaw, finally seized a chance and scored.

Joaquin swayed left and right on the left side. After attracting the attention of many defensive players, Joaquin pushed the ball to Moretti who was in the back.

The Spanish full-back strode the ball away from Capdevila and swept a beautiful low pass into the penalty area.

The ball was running extremely fast, almost flying against the turf, which made it more difficult for the defender to defend.Gonzalo fell to the ground and failed to touch the ball with his sliding shovel at the previous point. Godin was also taken away by Angulo. With a light push, no matter how long Diego Lopez's arm is, he is beyond reach for such a close-range shot.

The football hit the net and the score became 1:1!
