Chapter 13 Goal

The ball went in!

Only a "clang" sound was heard from the goal frame, and the ball rubbed the crossbar and hit the goal.

The Arsenal goalkeeper failed to catch up in the end, and Jose's long pass eventually turned into a goal and scored.

Applause, deafening applause.

This is Jose's first goal in an official match.

He originally just had the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect the ball to go in.

"hoes, heos..." Aston Villa fans shouted Jose's name one after another.

Live chat room.

"Goal? I just walked away and didn't see it."

"Well, Villa scored."

"Villa scored first? Who scored?"

"Goalkeeper Jose."

"Goalkeeper Jose? Are you kidding me?"

"I don't have time to tease you. The Villa goalkeeper took the kick and directly lobbed the goal with his big foot. The ball came to half-way before the Arsenal goalkeeper reacted."

"Fuck, my happy coins."

"Why are you nervous? It's only been ten minutes since the game started. Our factory can easily overtake us."



While the home fans celebrated enthusiastically, Jose stood there blankly. He was so excited that he forgot to celebrate.

"Ah..." After a while, Jose returned to normal, and he fell to his knees, looking up to the sky and screaming.

This is a day worth remembering.

The first official goal of his career, although it was a matter of luck, allowed Jose to see the direction of future development.

The game continues.

Jose's sudden goal suddenly broke Arsenal's plan.

If they don't change and the current score remains until the end, the two sides will enter a penalty shootout.

Penalty kicks are never a good choice for strong teams.

It can be seen with the naked eye that Arsenal's young players have become more proactive.

Bellerin, Gnabry, Iwobi, Olsen and other Arsenal players frequently entered the Villa penalty area.

Jose didn't dare to be careless at all and commanded his teammates unceremoniously.

In the past, teammates only treated Jose as an ordinary teammate. Now, after Jose opened the scoring, their mentality has slowly begun to change.

"Watch Bellerin," Jose shouted.

Jose discovered that although Bellerin is a right back, he can easily sprint into the penalty area like a winger.

"Bellerin will definitely become a member of a strong team in the future." Jose thought in his mind.

And this Gnabry looks unremarkable, but Jose has a vague feeling that his future will not be too simple.

In the 16th minute, Gnabry and Bellerin cooperated two-on-one on the wing and easily passed Villa's left back.

After Gnabry dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he passed the ball across to Olsen who came in.

Olsen stopped the ball with his left foot and then transferred it, passing the ball to Bellerin who just broke into the penalty area.

Bellerin could already shoot at this time, but he chose to pass it directly to Gnabry, who was in a better position.

A series of short passes directly knocked the defender of Villa's youth team to the ground.

On the right edge of the small penalty area, no one interfered with Gnabry, and he had a chance to shoot calmly.

As for Jose, when he saw Gnabry taking the ball, his body bent slightly and he stared intently at Gnabry's feet, trying to capture the exact direction of the shot as soon as he shot.

Gnabry guessed what Jose was thinking. He gave up the shooting angle and chose to volley hard. He believed that at such a close distance, even if Jose caught the direction of his shot, Jose would not be fast enough.

Response speed.

After the ball left Gnabry's feet, it quickly flew towards the bottom of the goal.

"Time and space pause."

Jose didn't hesitate.

Playing with speed is the wrong choice for cheating Jose.

Jose has tested that if time and space pause for one second, he can move about 3-4 meters.

When time and space resumed, people only saw Jose rushing towards the ball, blocking the ball out of the dangerous area before the ball was about to cross the goal line.

"Huh? Did the goalkeeper react too quickly?"

"Yes, he is as good as an adult goalkeeper."

"It's not only at the level of the adult team, but also vaguely feels like De Gea (De Gea's close-range saves are his strength)," someone said.

Seeing the shot being saved, Gnabry looked a little frustrated. This was an excellent opportunity.

After the ball flew out of the small penalty area, it fell in front of Villa's No. 5 player.

This time he was calm, looked in the right direction, and kicked the ball out of the penalty area.

Villa's youth team dismantled Arsenal's attack.

The game continues.

Villa got a rare chance to counterattack.

Unfortunately, they failed to seize this opportunity in the end, and the two sides scuffled again in the midfield.

Even though Jose was one of the two most at ease on the field, he did not look around like the Arsenal goalkeeper, but silently paid attention to the situation on the field.

Because of this, whenever Arsenal attacks the penalty area, Jose will arrange defensive players in advance, causing Arsenal's offense to repeatedly fail.

In the end, both sides made no achievements in the first half, and the 1-0 score was carried into the second half.

During halftime, in the live chat room.

"This game is a bit boring. Isn't it said that the youth team's games are undefended and score goals like crazy?"

"That was normal times. In this game, except for Grealish and Robinson, everyone else on Villa's side was really average and couldn't attack at all."

"As for Arsenal, there are a few very good players, but Villa's goalkeeper is too bad. 13 shots just can't get a goal." A football expert analyzed this.

"It makes sense. This also shows that we in China will have a real goalkeeper."

"But I don't want him to represent the national football team."

"I think so too. As for the big guys in the national football team, even Buffon won't be able to bring them along."

"Is it possible for Jose to surpass Buffon?"

"How is that possible? Do you think you are writing a novel?"



In the locker room.

Grealish sat next to Jose and grinned: "Jose, was your lob intentional or unintentional? It's so beautiful."

"I'm blind," Jose replied half-truthfully.

"Why don't you see that we can get one blindly?"

While everyone was talking, McDonald also walked into the locker room.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

Hearing Macdonald's voice, everyone fell silent.

"Everyone performed very well in the first half. According to this rhythm, we have a chance to enter the final. However, there are still some areas that need to be improved."

Immediately afterwards, McDonald quickly rearranged the tactical arrangements for the second half.

The overall change is not big, the main change is that Grealish's position has been moved to the wing position, and Robinson has moved to the center position.

There was not much time at halftime, so McDonald spoke very quickly and explained his arrangements as clearly as possible.

"One last thing, when there is a direct free kick opportunity, let Jose take the kick." After McDonald announced the last decision, the second half of the game had already arrived.

Although they had doubts about MacDonald's arrangement, the players still nodded in agreement.
