Chapter 43 Ankle Terminator
Author: You Wei Yanmei
In the 11th round of the League, Henk played against Muskeron at home. In this game, the home team sent all the main players to strive for a victory.
Before the game, in the visiting team's locker room, the Musqueron players who had just returned from the pre-match training on the court were all sitting in the seat in front of the wardrobe, raising their heads and looking at the white-haired coach in front of them.
Ward Orr looked at them with a smile and said, "Guys, don't be so nervous, take it easy." The head coach's ease quickly spread to Musqueron's players, and many people no longer frowned.
Since the start of this season, Musqueron's performance has also been amazing. He is currently ranked sixth in the league and is expected to reach a UEFA Cup spot. This is a young team with very strong impact on the court.
In the past ten rounds, they have won six of the victories, relying on the fighting spirit of young players and their desire for victory.
"Genk's strength is indeed very strong, but we are not completely unlucky," Orr said.
Many players nodded in agreement. Henk's performance last season was very difficult. Many main players have left the team this season. Although they have loaned a lot of vitality from major leagues, running-in is still a problem.
"Genk's lineup depth is seriously insufficient and he cannot support the two-line battle at all, so they rotated in the last round and lost to Standard Liege. Although the main force returned in this round, the state is still difficult to guarantee." Ward Orr said carefully prepared words of encouragement.
Ward Orr is an old coach in Bijia. His player career is mediocre. He soon retired as an assistant coach and started his coaching career. He has been with teams such as Billshot and Charleroi, but has never led the team to achieve commendable results.
Last season, Musqueron was thrillingly relegated, and the former coach was dismissed. Ward Orr was ordered to take over the coaching point. The team's management valued his rich coaching experience and could guide players out of the shadow of last season's defeat.
"Genk's biggest killer is their forward Wang Feng. We had already played against him last season. I've seen his recent game video. His skills seem to have improved again. We have to be more cautious."
Speaking of this, Orl looked at Musqueron defender Kiel Doherty, "I need you to keep a close eye on Wang Feng so that he can't play his speed and break through the advantage. This is your only task."
"Anyway, Wang Feng is still a seventeen-year-old Asian. Give him a confrontation and make full use of your physical advantages."
Kiel Doherty nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will make him suffer a little."
"The midfielder and central defender must cooperate with Doherty's left defense and resolutely double-team at critical moments. In any case, I will freeze this Wang Feng tightly in this game, and I cannot give him any chance on the left."
"Believe me, as long as Wang Feng is frozen, Henk is a paper tiger, and we will definitely get three points."
At the beginning of the game, Henk relied on Wang Feng to organize the offense in the frontcourt as usual. In this game, head coach Aimee Anthonys still lined up to form 442.
Last season, Henk mainly used the 433 formation, and Wang Feng took on the role of a winger more. This season, due to the lack of front staff, he switched to 442. Wang Feng's position in the frontcourt is not fixed, but since he is a right-foot player, he is mainly on the right side.
Doherty has been keeping close attention to Wang Feng, regardless of whether the ball is in his hands or not, he wants to suppress Wang Feng with his physical fitness.
But things didn't seem as simple as he thought. In the 4th minute, after Bass in the middle passed the ball to Wang Feng on the right, Doherty squeezed up, with some small moves in his hand, trying to force Wang Feng to lose balance and concede the ball.
But Wang Feng's lower limbs were very strong, his body was still motionless, and he firmly protected the ball. He waved back with his left foot, then leaned against Doherty and turned around. When he turned to the goal, he quickly started and got rid of the defense in an instant.
Then Wang Feng drove the ball and ran wildly on the right side, and Doherty could only catch up from behind, but the speed gap made them farther and farther away, and they quickly reached a position.
Therefore, Wang Feng was able to make a cross easily, but unfortunately, Barry, who followed in the penalty area, did not hit the right shot, and the ball was slightly off the post.
Doherty looked at Wang Feng panting, his eyes full of incredible expressions. This boy looked very thin, so why is his body so strong?
What he didn't know was that due to Wang Feng's persistent exercise, his physical fitness and physical fitness have been greatly improved. Moreover, he has very keen senses and knows which parts of his body to exert force, which can make himself more beneficial in the confrontation.
Doherty gritted his teeth. Even so, he didn't believe that he could not resist a young boy.
Henk's attack again, Wang Feng retreated to the midfield to get the ball, dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Kiel Doherty observed the positions of other defensive players on his side, which were more reasonable, so he made a double-team gesture and stepped forward to press Wang Feng.
He thought Wang Feng would slow down his speed, but he didn't expect that he would start to return straight to himself and point the ball to the left to the left, which was to cut inward and break through, Doherty quickly blocked it to the right.
But Wang Feng's left foot drew a circle on the ball, then pushed the ball to his right foot, then pushed his right foot with the trend and broke through the defense from the wing. This is the skill of fried croquettes.
Doherty was shocked and forced to turn around to make up for the mistake, but unexpectedly, he staggered his left foot and lost his balance and fell to the ground.
"Let's see this time, Wang Feng took the ball to face the defense, so fast. He swung past his opponent in an instant. The defensive player took a fake move, lost his balance, and went to the front of the penalty area to shoot!"
"gooooooooooooooooooooooooal, the ball entered! In the 11th minute of the game, Henk opened the opponent's goal."
"Wang Feng suddenly shot near the top of the penalty area. The ball has a very strong force and has a downward trend in the air, so the goalkeeper can't react."
"Let's take a look at the replay. Wang Feng dribbled the ball very beautifully. He easily got rid of the defense and decisively made a world wave before other defensive players blocked it."
Kiel Doherty sat on the ground and watched Wang Feng run around the sidelines to celebrate. He had such good physical fitness and good skills under his feet. This was simply a cheat. He stood up on the ground, but suddenly felt a severe pain in his left ankle.
After trying to take two steps, he found that he was injured and could only say hello to the sidelines to substitute.
"We can see that the opponent's No. 12 left back Kil Doherty seems to be injured and is asking for a substitution. Was it sprained when Wang Feng shook him away just now?"
"We know that there are ankle terminators on the basketball court. Can Wang Feng also be called an ankle terminators on the football court?"
After a while of the game, Musqueron had to use the first substitution and replace Doherty. Their head coach Orr scratched his pale hair in distress. Who else could limit Wang Feng?
In the end, he replaced the full-back who was substituted and told him to try his best to fight Wang Feng and consume his physical strength.
