Chapter 46: Conflicts will eventually end in a battle

On the morning of September 11, 2001, two civilian airliners, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, which were hijacked by terrorists, crashed into Buildings 1 and 2 of the World Trade Center in New York, USA respectively.

After being attacked, they collapsed one after another; another hijacked passenger plane, American Airlines 77, crashed into the Pentagon of the U.S. Department of Defense in Washington; and the passengers and crew members of United Flight 93 decided to fight terrorism through voting.

The elements fought to the end, and the counterattack finally forced the hijackers to crash the plane in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, preventing the plane from crashing into the U.S. Capitol. All 44 people on board (including 4 terrorists) were killed...

On September 12, 2019, the global press focused on the 9/11 incident. The front page of the Global Times was titled "The United States suffered a terrorist attack." The Chinese people expressed their deepest condolences to the American people. "New York

The concise and concise headline "U.S. attacked" in The Times later became one of the most classic headlines in the history of journalism, while the headline in "USA Today" was the same short "Act War", and the headline "War America" ​​in the British "Daily Telegraph" also had

In a similar way, the title "War the World" of the British "Mirror" is a bit surprising. Japan's "Asahi Shimbun" and South Korea's "East Asia News", which also uses Chinese registration, also reserved their front page headlines for the 9/11 incident.

After reporting to the Football Association in advance and communicating with the management of Oldham Athletic Club, on September 12, 2001, at Meadow Lane Stadium in Nottingham, players from both sides wrapped their arms in black gauze and lowered their heads to form a circle in the center circle.

lock up.

All the fans stood up at the same time, bowed their heads, observed silence, or closed their eyes to pray to heaven. This was a catastrophe for mankind, and Wei Xun, who was helpless, could only use this method to make himself feel a little better.

Oldham Athletic, who came from afar, have been working hard in the lower leagues all year round. They won the English League Two championship in 1974 and the English League One championship in 1991. They were somewhat inactive in other periods of time.

, and has not won any heavyweight honors.

However, Oldham Athletic currently ranks second in English League Two and has great hope of being promoted to English League One next year. In the first six league rounds that have been played, Oldham Athletic’s experienced defense has only lost

With three goals, Notts County's offensive players faced a lot of pressure in this game.

When Notts County lost 1-2 to Aston Villa in the second round of the League Cup, Guardiola was very dissatisfied with the referee's decision and kicked the water bottle away angrily from the sidelines. The fourth official right in front of him was shouting at

After the referee reported the situation, Guardiola was shown a red card by the referee.

At that time, the referee Freire not only did not punish the Aston Villa players for their touching behavior, but also gave Barzagli a red dot package. Guardiola was furious about this, and Barzagli could no longer play in the league.

Now that the cup competition will also be suspended, Guardiola suddenly became angry. This is Notts County's main central defender!

The FA's investigation report has also been released. In the investigation into Guardiola's behavior of kicking the water bottle, the three-person investigation team wrote in the report: "Guardiola's dangerous behavior of kicking the water bottle, regardless of whether he did it intentionally or not

"Yes, it may hurt the people around him." The referee on duty, Freire, said that the fourth official told him that Guardiola kicked the water bottle away without any scruples, and this action was too dangerous.

Wei Xun and Guardiola expressed great dissatisfaction with the FA's rogue behavior. The FA, which has always been inefficient, acted so quickly this time and must be holding back bad moves.

Wei Xun's red envelope was not for nothing. Tony Price called Wei Xun and told him to calm down now. Judging from the current situation, it would be better not to confront the FA. Therefore, Guardio

Notts County Club issued a statement announcing its compliance with the FA's punishment, and apologized to the FA Disciplinary Committee before the start of the seventh round of the league, saying that they would work hard to improve discipline and risk themselves.

He also felt very remorseful for his behavior. Wei Xun also informed the financial staff of the Notts County Club to reimburse Guardiola for the 16,000 pound fine.

As a player, Guardiola's one-game suspension will have little impact on Notts County, but if as a head coach, he is sent to the stands and unable to direct the game, the hearts of the Notts County soldiers will definitely fluctuate.

Simply speaking, this result is not bad. Wei Xun and Zhao Tai, who are still waiting for Sergey's reply in San Francisco, can only look forward to Notts County defeating their opponents at home from afar.

Guardiola's plan for this game is to start the game first. According to the data provided by the Notts County Data Analysis Department, although Oldham Athletic defends well, the team is very slow, and the opening stage is the most important time to break the balance.

Best time.

If they can win this game, Notts County will definitely enter the top ten. Second-placed Oldham Athletic also hope to win this game to consolidate their position and narrow the gap with the league leaders.

points difference.

The pre-match data report also showed that Oldham Athletic's main center back Harris suffered an ankle contusion and his ability to play is still questionable.

As Barzagli continued to be suspended and Sneijder had just returned from playing for the national team and was in relatively tired condition, Guardiola put the young midfielder Cory Bukalosi, who had performed well in three consecutive away games, into the starting position.

Mertesacker and Chiellini partnered up to guard the defense for Notts County. Main goalkeeper Reina accidentally sprained his left thumb in training and needs to rest for at least four days. England goalkeeper Ben Foster won the

The second starting opportunity in the new season, and the game during the injury period of Reina, is also an opportunity for Foster to prove himself.

In the 4th minute of the game, Lichtsteiner dribbled the ball forward from the right, and Cory Bukalosi responded.

Franck Ribery on the left quickly advanced into the penalty area and reached for the ball, "Corey, this way, this way...".

Cory Bukalosi only made a slight adjustment, but the Oldham Athletic defender seized the opportunity and staggered, barely picking up the ball and passing it into the penalty area, but Ribery could not get the ball at this time.

In the penalty area, Hubner was pulled by the opponent's defender and tried to get the ball to the first place, but he was unable to control the ball. He could only choose to use a little more force and let the ball fly in the direction of Ribery's running.

Ribery stopped the ball and shot directly, and the shot hit the Oldham Athletic goalkeeper in the face. The latter fell to the ground, crying in agony.

Ribery quickly stepped forward to check on the Oldham Athletic goalkeeper's injury, and Hubner, who had already controlled the ball, signaled to the defender defending him that he had given up the attack and kicked the ball out of the sideline.

"Hey, brother goalkeeper, how are you? Don't let anything happen to you. I really didn't mean it...".

It was the first time for 18-year-old Ribery to experience such a situation, and the blood-stained face of Oldham Athletic goalkeeper Peake Jones made Ribery even more at a loss.

"Brother, don't be like this, I'm bleeding..." Ribery cried even more sadly. He felt a little dizzy.

The referee stopped the game in time. The Oldham Athletic team doctor had already come to the door to treat Peake Jones's wound. "Oh, poor kid, don't worry. Peake's nose bone was hit by the ball. Don't worry."

My child, it’s nothing serious, just stop the bleeding first.”

The Oldham Athletic team doctor first gave Peake Jones a thumbs up to indicate that he was okay, and then while trying to stop the bleeding, he comforted Ribery, who was pale.

Georgia, the chief team doctor of Notts County, also rushed over. Yes, he is the chief team doctor. Now Georgia can be regarded as the Minister of Humerus of the new Notts County. He also has a team majoring in Western medicine under his command. He gave Austria

The Denham Athletic team doctor took some Yunnan Baiyao to help Pick Jones stop the bleeding and signaled for a stretcher to come in.

Peake Jones's nose bone was broken by Franck Ribery's close-range shot. The exact extent of the break is not yet known, and it is not clear whether there is a concussion. All of this needs to be checked at the Royal Medical College of Nottingham.

.

In short, Peake Jones will not be able to last the rest of the game.

Before being carried on a stretcher to the ambulance, Peake Jones touched Ribery's head and comforted the 18-year-old, "Little guy, it's okay. I've been standing in front of the goal for 15 years. What kind of injury?"

I've seen it all, this time it's really nothing, don't worry, I know you didn't mean it, I forgive you, play the game well, don't show mercy to us just because you kicked me off, we are in the second league

The strongest shield in the league, you must show your full spirit!"

With Peake Jones gone, Oldham Athletic kicked the ball back to Notts County, and Hubnell kicked the ball directly into the audience with a wild shot.

The Oldham fans and Notts County fans present gave them endless applause for the professionalism of both teams.

If the incident just now was an episode in this game, then what follows is a real conflict:

In the 25th minute of the game, Lichtsteiner's cross from the right was cleared by the opponent's defender. George Grant took the ball and passed it again. Hubner took the ball and passed three people into the penalty area. His shot was missed by Oldham Athletic.

The defender fought hard to block it.

In the 29th minute, Oldham Athletic missed a chance to score. Ram fouled on the edge of the penalty area. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick. The Oldham Athletic forward actually played with a spoon. Unfortunately, the ball speed was too slow and was passed by Ben Foster.

Block it with your feet.

"Oh..." Seeing that this opportunity to equalize the score was wasted, the Oldham Athletic fans booed.

In the 36th minute, Ribery made a diagonal pass. Hubner rushed from the edge of the small penalty area and hit the right post. Kuyt's shot from the right was deflected over the crossbar by Oldham Athletic's substitute goalkeeper.

In the 52nd minute, Cory Bukalosi passed the ball directly behind him. Hubner chose a low shot from the edge of the penalty area and the ball hit the side net.

Guardiola off the field thought that Notts County had changed the score due to his poor perspective. He was about to rush out to celebrate, but was hugged by his assistant Mark.

In the 65th minute, Ribery broke into the left side of the penalty area during a counterattack, but failed to cross Hubner in the middle in time. He could only choose to pass the ball to the outside. Cory Bukalosi's shot at the top of the penalty area was blocked by Austria

Denham's central defender used his body to block the sideline.

In the 82nd minute, the score on the field was finally changed. Franck Ribery, who kicked Oldham Athletic's starting goalkeeper Peake Jones off the field, seemed to be possessed by a god. He took the ball from the midfield and drove straight to the edge of the penalty area. Then he passed the ball to the edge of the penalty area.

The inverted triangle was passed into the penalty area. Veteran Hubnell moved forward smartly, stretched his legs, and blocked the ball into the Oldham Athletic gate.

1-0, Notts County is in the lead. As the saying goes, the sword is unsheathed and invincible. No matter how strong your shield is, I will cut you off. This is a battle of momentum that cannot be lost. Notts County, attack!

The Oldham people who don't understand what it means to surrender are still working hard. Even if their shields are broken to pieces, they will still fight you for another three hundred rounds if they are glued back together.

The Notts County players were united and withstood the opponent's crazy counterattack in the last five minutes, and finally won the game as they wished.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Ribery fell to his knees on the ground and refused to stand up for a long time. Notts County won and he was relieved. An assist was his best compensation for Peake Jones.
