There is always only one theme in this world, no matter what industry you are in or what kind of work you are engaged in, everything is based on your own strength. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The powerful may not win the whole world, but they are enough to inspire awe in anyone's heart.
In the world of football, the truth that whoever is the boss is even more agreed.
In the current Villarreal team, Van Bizhuang is undoubtedly a major figure, not only because he is the most favoured and popular player in the whole city, but more importantly, his role in the team and the contribution he can make to the team. So although he has only officially joined the team in his early years and his grade is not too big, no one is unconvinced by him.
Especially after Pellegrini promoted him to the team's substitute captain, although it is a somewhat funny "fifth captain", everyone knows that the future Villarreal, Van Bizhuang is definitely the core of the core, maybe after a few years, the veterans are all renewed and left, and he will really become the leader of the team.
In addition, most of the main forces of the team are very close to him, and everyone supports him, in this case, Fan Bizhuang naturally has more power to speak in the team.
His reminders and warnings were something that no one could ignore, especially a newcomer like Mavuba, who had just joined the team.
In fact, Ma Wuba also knows that his performance in this game is very average, not to mention an invisible man, because he is quite conscientious in defense, but his contribution to the team is almost zero, the defense is not in place, and the cooperation is not together, even sweeping and scrambling, most of the time it is useless. From the fact that his teammates got yellow cards for their hard work, and his body is cleaner than his face as a regular defensive back, it can be seen that he actually failed to play his role as a defensive defender.
At halftime, the head coach also focused on raising this issue with him, asking him to act more intensely in defense, not to be afraid of fouls, the player who takes the initiative to foul is not necessarily a good player, but a defender who focuses on defense, even has the courage to foul, that is definitely unqualified.
To put it bluntly, the position of the back midfield, connecting the past and the future, either you are an organizational midfielder who can help the team's offensive end, or you are a full-time defensive "blue-collar worker" to escort the back line. If it's the latter, then the dirty work must be your duty, and if you can't do it, then what's the use of you?
Ma Wuba also knew that his performance in the game was very bad, he did not play the role he should have played at all, he had worked hard, but he just couldn't use his strength. That's the problem of a nervous mentality and a lack of integration with the team as a whole.
It takes time to get used to, but the problem is that there is simply no time for Mavuba to get used to it, the team is stretched thin, and at this time, he is sent to deal with the difficulties.
Mavuba was in a hurry and worked harder in the second half, but it was still a feeling of strength that could not be used. Just like this defense, he inexplicably lost his defensive position, if it wasn't for Fan Bizhuang suddenly rushing back to help him fill in the position, then this time, the team's back line will face the threat of attacking hands, if he finally concedes the ball, then he is definitely the biggest "culprit".
But although Fan Bizhuang helped him wipe his buttocks, his heart was still extremely uncomfortable. On the one hand, he sees himself as a burden to the team. Each player in the team has their own job, like Fan Bizhuang, his main job is to participate in the attack, so that he always comes back to help him defend, what is that? While appearing incompetent, he also causes a lot of trouble for others, which at the same time weakens the team's offensive ability.
What made him even more ashamed was that Fan Bizhuang himself was burdened with a yellow card, if he ate another one because of him, two yellows turned into one red, and he was punished, then he would really not atone for his crimes.
Of course, he also has a layer of worry in his heart, since entering the team, he has heard a lot about Fan Bizhuang's "glorious deeds", not to mention anything else, Giuseppe. Rossi, the team's popular goalscorer, was once reprimanded by Fan Bizhuang on the field, and this alone shows that Fan Bizhuang's temper is not very good.
Now the "big guy" in the team is shouting at him, is this an ultimatum? If his performance continues to be worse, then will the opponent suppress him within the team. If that's the case, the prospects of his new club are ......
"I can't go on like this! Poor performance is poor performance, there is no excuse to speak of, if I want to really establish myself in the team, I must work harder! I can't miss this opportunity! ”
With this in mind, Ma Vuba cheered himself up and ran and fought harder in the midfield. He has made up his mind, he wants to be a man completely, anyway, he will not give an inch, every inch of land will be fought, even if it is a red card, he must be tough, and resolutely not let the opponent easily face the back line.
In the next two minutes or so, Ma Wuba ran around like a mad dog, grabbing if he could, hitting or pushing if he couldn't grab it, no matter what the means were, as long as he made the opponent uncomfortable, he would do it.
This change is very different from the previous look of being cautious for fear of making mistakes.
But there are some things on the football field that are really hard to say, Mavuba's mediocre performance is not a good thing for the team, and the sudden excitement should have been a boost, but it was a disaster if the excitement was too much.
Ma Vulba's tough performance did make Ma Wuba see the effect, and he found that the opponents who originally regarded him as a breakthrough gradually did not dare to despise him anymore, and even deliberately walked around him at some times - this is for fear that this "mad dog" will bite him and be hacked for no reason.
"Sure enough, the back waist must have the consciousness of the back waist, a back waist that is not fierce enough cannot scare others!"
Ma Wuba was happy in his heart, and his energy was also more sufficient, seeing that Valencia's attack once again quickly hit the front, and deliberately bypassed himself, cutting into the penalty area from the side, Ma Wuba didn't think about it, and went straight back and rushed into the penalty area.
It was this retreat to the penalty area that brought a huge disaster to the team.
Joaquín used his speed to shake off defenders on the flank, and then changed direction into the box, and Mavuba was also in front of him at this time. Ma Wuba, who gradually regained his self-confidence, excitedly stretched out his foot to break the ball after Joaquin made a feint, but underestimated Joaquin's breakthrough ability, the latter quickly pulled the ball, took the first step to protect the ball at his feet, Ma Wuba's outstretched right foot kicked Joaquin's leg unexpectedly, and then Joaquin fell to the ground, and the referee's whistle sounded......
There was no doubt that it was a penalty without any problems, and the referee's hand towards the penalty spot was extremely resolute.
There was silence in the love song stadium.
A moment later, some fans let out bursts of boos, shouting that Joaquín was putting on a show and faking a fall. But these fans know that this is just their weak complaint, and it is impossible to influence the referee to change the decision.
Some fans hugged their heads in pain, and some people even had tears flowing from the corners of their eyes.
After leading twice but being tied twice, and now the team has been sentenced to death, a feeling of uneasiness began to spread among the fans, and everyone had an illusion that they could not imagine, in the first game of the season, they also went from leading to being reversed, could it be that today, will this unwilling and painful scene be staged?
"Penalty! Penalty kick!! It was an undisputed foul! It's a penalty without a problem! Valencia has a great chance to lead, Joaquín, Joaquin! He created this best lead opportunity for the Bat Legion! Pretty! Pretty! We're going to be ahead! Great! ”
Correa yelled excitedly, the clock was approaching eighty minutes, and if he had taken the lead in that period, it was likely that the derby would have ended in a victory for the visitors. Correa glanced triumphantly at the distance, and Arces's face turned pale, which made him even more happy.
"It's a shame, Villarreal's overall performance is not bad, but hillbillies are hillbillies, no matter how hard they try, they can't climb the mountain of a really strong team! Ha, this time to score, Valencia to win! ”
Correa began to "sneer", and Arces was really fooled, he glared at Correa angrily, and almost roared in an unwilling voice: "No, the game is not over yet, it's too early to say who wins and who loses!" I believe in our team, I believe in our lads, they will do wonders for the rest of the time! ”
"Aren't you still dead, Arceus? As cruel as the reality is, facts are facts, and no one can change them. Of course, if you stick to your opinion, I don't have much to say, so I have a proposal, would you like to hear it? Correa tried her best to suppress the excitement in her heart, and said earnestly, "Of course, if you don't have confidence, you can also choose not to listen to my offer. ”
Stimulated, Arces blurted out almost subconsciously: "Say! ”
"Didn't we have a pact before? Don't look at me like that, Alceth, you know, I'm a commitment person, and I certainly wouldn't do anything like that. It's just that I see that you are so confident, so do you dare to make another bet with me? If in the end it is Valencia who wins, then the valuable bet is negated. What do you think? ”
Arceth looked at him coldly: "You have a good hand in calculation, empty gloves white wolf?" ”
"You can't say that, Arceus. If you believe your team can win, why not give it a try? Even if you lose, you have nothing to lose. Could it be that your self-confidence is only fake, when in fact you have lost faith in Villarreal? ”
