Football: The immortal legend on the green field

Chapter 16 Chen Tao's Hat Trick

Sichuan Sanniu head coach was a little confused when he saw Shen Bin being replaced by defensive midfielder at first, but Shen Bin's performance in the next few minutes made him understand. He played in almost all the positions of left winger, attacking midfielder, defensive midfielder, and midfielder, and he was able to complete the tasks assigned by the coach excellently.

There is no position this kid can't play on the ground.

This way he felt half relieved, at least he didn't have to worry about the opponent's good impact posing a threat to his team.

In the last few minutes of the first half, the two sides were in a stalemate and no one created an absolute chance.

Shen Bin completed the task assigned by Guo Jiangping brilliantly, not only easing the opponent's offensive, but also disrupting the offensive rhythm of the Sichuan Province Sanniu.

Guo Jiangping was quite satisfied with the game in the final stage of the first half. He instructed that on the basis of solid defense, the midfielders should boldly press forward in counterattacks.

After the start of the second half, Sichuan Sanniu attacked more unscrupulously, once again putting considerable pressure on Liaoning Tianlun's defense. As long as they lost control of the ball, they would press frantically in Liaoning's half, and their movements became gradually rougher.

Both Sichuan Province's positional attack and Liaoning Province's counterattack were poorly organized, with a very low passing rate. In the scramble for the ball, the football was constantly exchanging control between the two sides. It was obvious that under such high temperatures, the physical strength of both sides had declined significantly, and the error rate continued to increase.

So, when the game time reached 70 minutes, the gathered morale gradually disappeared and the pace of both sides slowed down significantly.

During this period, Shen Bin's main focus was on the opponent's No. 10. Sichuan Province's No. 10 was the transit station for their attack. He had the best footwork among them, had certain organizational skills, and had a relatively high passing accuracy.

But due to the previous high-intensity running up and down, his physical strength had reached its limit.

Under Shen Bin's close defense, the ball was passed directly to Mai Yi. After Mai Yi got the ball, he subconsciously looked for Dai Zhao.

He found that Dai Zhao was quite far away. While he was hesitating, the opponent's No. 9 striker was already quite close to him. In a panic, Mai Yi passed the ball back to the goalkeeper.

Shen Bin knew that his team's goalkeeper must have kicked the ball forward to ruin the situation, so he moved to the center circle in advance.

People of this age group don’t care much about this kind of long-distance ball.

Since the basic skills are relatively poor, even if you judge the landing point correctly, you can't stop the ball well, so everyone pays more attention to the competition for the second landing point.

When these players grew up, they became the main force in the Chinese court. "Pay attention to the competition for the second landing point." This sentence has become a catchphrase for domestic coaches. Why? Because they can't stop the ball well.

Just like General Fan said, "You know I don't have that ability!"

Shen Bin ran to the center circle, and the ball happened to be flying towards him, landing relatively close to him. He quickly adjusted his position. Players from both sides had no intention of stepping forward to receive the ball, and most of them stood there looking up. This showed the benefit of Shen Bin's practice of possessing Garrincha in his dream.

He judged the landing point and stopped the ball with his chest. Although it was not as smooth as Garrincha's, it was still within the controllable range.

"Huh?" How come this ball is different from what I judged? Why didn't No. 17 jump far after stopping the ball?

Shen Bin adjusted the direction and attacked the opponent with the ball. At this time, even the defensive midfielder of Sichuan Sanniu was still in the frontcourt. The road ahead was clear. The two central defenders hurriedly made defensive postures, one stepped forward to press, and the other also prepared to assist in defense.

Chen Tao, who had been wandering around the opponent's half, ran towards the opponent's penalty area swiftly. Seeing this situation, the last defender of Sichuan Sanniu quickly made a reasonable defensive strategy, pressing forward to create offside.

Shen Bin had already thought of the opponent's intention in advance and passed the ball before the opponent started.

"Good shot!" Several players on the Liaotianlun bench stood up one after another.

The ball was passed very smoothly, just at a distance where the opponent's goalkeeper could not attack. Chen Tao stopped the ball and had time to make two adjustments before shooting the ball to the lower left corner of the goal. This ball was no different from a penalty kick. The opponent's goalkeeper had stretched his body as much as possible, but the ball still rolled into the goal from his fingertips.

2-0, Chen Tao scored twice and Liaotianlun expanded its advantage.

When the players of Liaoning Tianlun celebrated the goal, the coaches of both teams made personnel adjustments on the field.

Sichuan Sanniu replaced a defender with a forward and changed to 343.

Guo Jiangping replaced the attacking midfielder with a full-back who was better at attacking than defending. It seemed that the formation had changed to 532. The Sichuan coach also thought so, but after the game resumed, the Sichuan coach made a wrong judgment again.

This defender did not play in the defender position, but played as left midfielder. Dai Zhao returned to his familiar position as defensive midfielder, and Shen Bin was pushed to the attacking midfielder.

When Gao Haiyang saw such adjustments, he was quite impressed with Guo Jiangping's on-the-spot adjustments. Although this old guy had conservative ideas and backward tactics, his experience was still worth learning from.

Leading 2-0, Liaoning Tianlun played more easily and at ease. They defended more easily and their overall defense line was slightly moved back, which not only left the opponent some room for maneuver in the midfield, but also did not cause them to be so aggressive in pressing in the backcourt.

The three talents from Sichuan Province finally had a chance to show off their skills. Unfortunately, with the overall strength of both teams being similar, their performances failed to achieve any substantial results, just like waves hitting a towering cliff.

And Liao Province Tianlun was quietly waiting for the opponent to make a mistake.

The opponent, who should have become more impatient after failing to attack for a long time, actually fought a positional battle with him calmly, and the line of attack became clearer and clearer, and the pressure on his defense line became heavier and heavier.

What's going on? Shen Bin immediately became alert.

The team should not have retreated so thoroughly when leading. Shen Bin had a conversation with Dai Zhao during one of the retreats.

The coaching staff also noticed this situation, but they didn't know what the specific situation was on the field. They didn't know if it was because the players were not physically strong enough or some other situation. They were unsure and didn't dare to make adjustments.

But Shen Bin on the field knew that the opponent had consumed more physical strength than his side, and his players just wanted to maintain their current lead.

At Shen Bin's reminder, Dai Zhao called out to his teammates loudly, asking them not to kick the ball or kick it out of bounds when they got it.

After grabbing the ball once, Dai Zhao steadily passed it to Zhu Han on the right side. Zhu Han ran forward with the ball, and the Sichuan Tianlun players no longer had the energy to return to defense.

It was not until Zhu Han brought the ball to the side of the opponent's penalty area that the opponent's right back caught up with him and prepared to intercept.

Zhu Han looked up and observed that it was a 3 vs. 2 situation in the penalty area, and Zhu Han made a cross.

With the interference of a central defender, Shen Bin took a shot, but the angle was not very good and the shot was saved by the goalkeeper. Forward Duan Qiyue followed up with a shot.

The goalkeeper rolled and crawled, struggling to block the ball with one fist on the goal line.

Chen Tao, who arrived at the landing point in time, put his head forward...

This time, the goalkeeper of Sichuan Sanniu was powerless. He could only lie on the goal line and watch the ball pass through his fingertips...

3 is better than 0!

The goal stands and the referee points to the center circle.

3-0, Chen Tao scored a hat trick.

This goal seemed to drain the spirit from the three strong teams from Sichuan Province. They were like deflated balls and could no longer organize a decent attack.

In the last few minutes of the game, the game suddenly became mild. After both sides got the ball, they would pass it in the backcourt and no longer move forward.

The two sides seemed to have reached a tacit understanding and consumed the last little remaining game time.
