Volume 4 The Storm Chapter 55 A Powerful Enemy

Shoot! Pretty - the ball is in! Burns's Forest Bar, which was excited by the TV narrator, resounded with even louder cheers.

"Well done, Gipsy Rooney!"

"Let them see how good we are!"

"Whew-"

"Cheers to this beautiful goal!"

The fans were in a mess, and the golden liquor was tossed to the ceiling. Kenny. Burns was just smiling and watching the excitement of the fans.

He took a few looks, then turned his gaze back to the television, which he saw through the screen and arrived at the Camp Nou.

The Forest players are celebrating with a stack of arhats – one of their favourite ways to celebrate, and of course, Donn has banned the boss from holding the manager under him to celebrate.

At Camp Nou, after a brief silence, the home fans burst into loud boos that drowned out the cheers that Forest fans had just shouted.

Unfazed by the boos of the home fans, the Forest players were unbridled and celebrated at the opponent's home stadium.

In the opening ten minutes, it was cool to have a one-goal lead over Barcelona without being favored!

Don also stood up after his team's goal and kept waving his fists to demonstrate to the Barcelona fans.

Aren't you known as the "Dream Team II"? Today, let me tell you why you can only be "Dream II" and not "Dream Team"!

The referee intervened, and the celebrations that had been so excited for the Forest players finally came to an end. The people of Barcelona have already placed the football at the midpoint and are waiting a little impatiently.

The television camera was firmly on track of Eastwood, who scored the goal, and the commentator introduced the player with a special experience to the audience: "...... Eastwood was once overshadowed by Nottingham Forest's current captain George Bush. Wood broke his leg and was reduced to the point where he had to play in an amateur league. Finally Tony. Donn found him and gave him a chance to play professionally again...... Although he has been injured repeatedly over the years, we can see that he can continue to score goals as long as he is on the pitch. In Nottingham. He was known as 'Gypsy Diruni'. It's a pity. He doesn't represent England, he represents Wales......"

When the players rushed to celebrate Eastwood's goal, only goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar and George Bush were the players. Wood stopped in his original position and didn't move, first because it was too far away, and then because it was ...... Well, some well-known reasons.

When the celebratory crowd dispersed, George. Wood was already in his position in the second half waiting for the kick-off. Eastwood was also running back, but instead of standing on the center circle like Bendtner, he ran straight to George, who was standing behind. Wood. Reach out.

The two didn't say anything, high-fived each other, and Eastwood ran away again. Eastwood treats George. Wood's attitude was much better than before, but the most intimate behavior between the two was limited to that. They still don't talk to each other, joke about each other, and don't say hello when they meet. After getting off the court, you may not even have the action of high-five.

Don only smiled when he saw this scene below. Ken high-five. It's better than always having a cold eyebrow.

The game resumes with Barcelona kicking off. Conceding the goal so quickly was somewhat unexpected, and Nottingham Forest were more tenacious than he thought.

This team is a clear change from last year's Nottingham Forest. Not only in terms of mental outlook, but also in real strength - I can't help but admit that the current Nottingham Forest team is stronger.

And...... George. Wood's liveliness is something that no one could have imagined. All pre-match intelligence said that this man was a "defensive genius, an offensive idiot". But looking at the goal just now, was the "Attacking Idiot" able to find such a passing route in a high run and get the ball where he wanted it to go?

Rijkaard also came from a midfielder when he was a player. And it's the kind of back that has both offense and defense. He saw some of his own shadow in the ball just now.

Haven't Barcelona been lacking a defender who is good at the back? Why not consider buying the number 13 in front of you? If you cultivate it yourself, you may be able to become the second one......

The Dutch coach made up his mind that when the game was over, whatever the outcome, he would submit an application to the club, hoping that the management would buy George at all costs. Wood. With him, it will not be a problem for Barcelona to truly dominate.

Look at what is now Nottingham Forest, there is George. Wood is on the field. Ribery, Ashley. Young, Bendtner, Eastwood and others can attack with confidence. What about without Wood? Everyone has to work both offensively and defensively.

If you have such a person in your team, Ronaldinho, Xavi, Iniesta, Eto'o, Messi...... Anyone else can devote all their energy to the offense. Barcelona's attack was already strong. If you go all out, I believe there will be no team in this world that can resist.

All of the above can only be said to be "good wishes" now, and he still has to retract his mind and put his mind into this game.

If George. Wood's organization of the attack this time was not luck, but his real strength? How will Barcelona cope? Send someone to keep an eye on it? No kidding, there are only three people in Barcelona's midfield, and even if the two wingers are withdrawn and become five, how many of them will be used defensively?

Barcelona's midfield configuration for this game is Andres Iniesta and Deco, as well as Xavi. The forward trio of Samuel Eto'o, Messi and Ronaldinho.

None of the six were specialized in defense.

Rijkaard originally planned to crush Nottingham Forest with an attack at home, but he didn't expect the Forest's resilience to be far from what he expected, not only was it not crushed, but it bounced up and gave it to himself.

Now that the team is down by one goal, Rijkaard, as a manager, has to make a choice. Will you strengthen your defense, or will you continue to attack?

This multiple-choice question only lingered in the Dutchman's mind for a few seconds, and the answer was already out without suspense. How could Barcelona, the Dutchman who advocates attack and the representative of artistic football, be forced to defend because of one person at their home stadium?

It's not my style and my team's.

Rijkaard got up from his seat, walked to the sideline and whistled to attract the attention of all the players, and then used his hand gesture to tell the Barcelona players on the field - don't take this goal to heart, keep attacking!

This is also in line with the thinking of the Barcelona players on the field. Let them defend and they don't know how to defend it...... Six offensive players. How to defend with only four defenders and a goalkeeper?

The best defense is offense, and only with a stronger attack can you get back from the disadvantage.

Barcelona have renewed their swift offensive against Nottingham Forest. After taking the lead, Nottingham Forest also chose to recycle for the time being, deciding to hold on to this period and wait for Barcelona's momentum to run out before counterattacking.

The ancient Chinese book Zuo Chuan. Zhuang Gong Ten Years has clouds: husband war, courage also. One blow, then decline. Three and exhaustion.

Don knows that this principle can also be used on the football field, when the opponent is in the limelight, do not go up, but should take the initiative to avoid, wait for the opponent's momentum to fail, and then suddenly attack, will be able to receive miraculous results.

No

Match. Other times, even during training, watching the game after the game, Donn would tell his players the same thing. Why do you sometimes show that you have just scored? was chased back by the opponent. It was because the opponent was in a hurry to equalize after conceding the goal, and the morale did not drop immediately, but there was a short-term growth trend. If we can't calm down and treat it calmly at this time, we still think that the other side must be demoralized, and take this opportunity to score another goal. If you press it hard...... That's dangerous.

When will the morale of the other party be low? When the opponent's counterattack does not receive any results, and the opponent's defense is solid, and the tenacity makes them desperate, morale will drop.

It was because Donn had instilled this idea in his players more than once that after leading Barcelona, the Forest team was very unified and immediately reverted to defence. Just now in the offense to shine George. Wood was the most eye-catching man on defense this time.

Ronaldinho faces George. Wood opted for a pass. But after he passed the ball. Now this idea is a little useless. Nottingham Forest, who had just played against Barcelona, suddenly chose to defend – yes, defend – yes. Completely and completely stubbornly defended. In front of the gate of the forest team, it was like an iron circle, people were crowded, people were piled up, and as far as the eye could see, it was all people, all legs. It was difficult for him to get the ball to his teammates accurately.

Sure enough, the ball was kicked out by Pique.

Barcelona is going to regroup their attacks.

Ronaldinho was amazed at how a team could make such a dramatic tactical change in such a short period of time, and at the same time at the same time wondered how a team could abandon the attack and switch to all-out defense after taking the lead......

He couldn't understand the change in tactics, and could it be that the Nottingham Forest manager was really a downright conservatism, as rumoured? Did he think a single ball would make them laugh last and be a victory?

Ronaldinho clenched his fists.

Football was once again passed to the feet of the Brazilian, because with the previous two experiences, George. Wood thought Ronaldinho would pass the ball first, so he didn't press it right away.

But this time, he was wrong.

Ronaldinho knows that there are people in front of him and passing the ball alone is useless. Breaking dense defences is generally done with long-range shots, as this method is the easiest. In fact, there is another way, and that is personal breakthrough. Although there are many people, as long as the artist is bold, he can take the ball to fight his way through the crowd.

Ronaldinho was fully confident in his technique and he caught George. The moment of Wood's negligence, he suddenly changed direction and rushed past Wood's side!

George. Wood hurriedly stepped forward to defend, but Ronaldinho shook it off with a very hidden smash. After Wood, no matter how many people are in front of you, the football elves of Brazil are not afraid.

A slight shake of his upper body made Arteta lose his correct judgment and his center of gravity was tilted. Ronaldinho immediately pulled the ball past Arteta and then faced the menacing Pique, who suddenly came with a ball in a tight space!

Piquee didn't expect Ronaldinho to be in the penalty area, surrounded by people, and it was impossible to use the ball to divide the place, he was stunned in place, watching Ronaldinho go around his other side.

"Beautiful! Pretty...... He's in the goal area and Van der Sar strikes! Shot-"

Ronaldinho wanted to shoot a volley, but Van der Sar was prepared, and although he fell to the ground, his right hand raised high. The football shot by Ronaldinho hit him right in his hand, and he shot the bottom line!

“…… What a pity! There was no goal, Van der Sar made a timely attack to defuse the danger in front of the goal of the Forest team! Although he didn't score, Ronaldinho gave us a brilliant individual breakthrough! In the face of Nottingham Forest's dense defence, what else can be solved other than long-range shots? That's this Brazilian! ”

The live TV broadcast gave Ronaldinho a back as he had just gotten up from the ground and watched the football that had fallen outside the baseline.

"One person broke down almost the entire defence of the Forest team, and dared to score the ball in such a small place in the penalty area! If it weren't for him, it would have been difficult for others to do it! It's just a pity...... Van der Sar's striking save was equally impressive. Beautiful offense, nice defense! From the current point of view, as Tony . Don said before the game that it was a good game! ”

Van der Sar got up from the ground, clapped his big hands, and shouted, "Focus! Don't let him break through so easily! George! He was calling Wood's name.

Wood looked back at him.

Van der Sar crossed his hands: "Shut him out!" ”

Wood nodded. It was caused by his negligence just now, and he had nothing to say.

Albertini and Donn, who were on the sidelines, looked at each other, then left their seats, walked to the sidelines, rolled their hands into a trumpet shape, and shouted inside: "George! Don't leave him a meter! Stick to him! He even made a pulling motion.

Ronaldinho's sudden power made the whole Forest team a little nervous. At this time, they woke up to the fact that they were standing in front of the last Champions Cup champion, the world footballer of the year, and the current number one midfielder in the world. He has the ability to change a game by himself, he is not an ordinary football star, he is a real ...... Giant star.

Arteta was a bit harsh when he saw that everyone seemed to be reminding Wood to be on the defensive side, and he ran up to comfort his midfield partner: "Don't take it personally, George. That person is not an ordinary person, he is very strong, it is okay to be beaten by him once, as long as he doesn't concede a goal......"

He didn't seem to be listening to him, his eyes were always on Ronaldinho, who ran to the corner flag area to take a corner.

Just when he thought he had wasted his saliva, Wood suddenly turned his head and asked, "Is he strong?" ”

Arteta almost didn't react, and he was tempted to roll Wood's eyes: "Are you really a professional? Don't even know if Ronaldinho is strong or not? He's the best player in the world right now...... A little jealous, but I must say this - he is strong, very strong. ”

Wood nodded when he heard Arteta say that.

"Then I'll be relieved."

"Huh?"

"It's not strong enough, and it's not fun to win." With that, Wood ran into the box and prepared to defend a corner.

Arteta, on the other hand, stayed where he was, watching Wood's back. Until Van der Sar shouted his name in front of the door: "Are you stupid, Mikel!" Come back and defend! What are you doing standing outside? ”

Arteta kept his eyes on Wood as he ran back, not paying attention to his surroundings at all. What Wood had said to him just now really scared him - he wanted his opponent to be as strong as possible, but he didn't worry about whether he would be able to defeat such a strong enemy...... Is this still human?

He saw Wood leap high in the crowd and push the ball out of Barcelona's Mexican centre-back Marcos. The people around me poured out like a tide, and a crisis was lifted......
