Chapter 40 Selfless Assists Who Don't Know the Truth
After a 15-minute rest, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Mallorca, which was lagging behind by a big score, still wanted to struggle. It launched a fierce attack at the beginning of the second half, trying to take advantage of Atletico Madrid's careless mentality to score a goal.
Atletico Madrid was indeed a little complacent, but head coach Porge Teresa arranged for everyone to shrink their defense at the beginning of the second half during the halftime break and took advantage of the numerical advantage in the backcourt to carry this wave of Mallorca's offensive.
past.
Until the 60th minute, Mallorca had not scored a goal, and Pozhe Theresa knew that the game was stable. Therefore, he began to make substitutions one after another. However, Joan Chen was still not replaced.
On the one hand, it is because Qiao Anchen's current physical fitness can support him to complete the entire game at the U17a level.
On the other hand, Pozhe Theresa is also following the instructions of the first team coach Manzano, giving Qiao Anchen more game time to train and train him.
In football, no matter how much training time is spent, it must be implemented in the game. The game is the best way to train.
After changing several people, Atletico Madrid's team chemistry has declined.
In the 72nd minute, Mallorca finally caught a mistake made by Atletico Madrid in the backcourt and directly counterattacked on the spot, sending the ball into the goal guarded by Guerrego.
Mallorca got a point back and the score was rewritten to 3-1. Atletico Madrid only led by two goals.
The gap between two goals no longer looks as desperate as three goals.
Therefore, Mallorca's morale was greatly boosted after they got a goal back. The coach also substituted two offensive players in succession and launched a massive attack in an attempt to make a comeback. Even the central defender crossed the center line and attacked the frontcourt.
Under such circumstances, it is naturally easy for Atletico Madrid to get the ball and counterattack. Although not every counterattack can reach the frontcourt, and not every counterattack can kick off a shot and score a goal.
But with Qiao Anchen's presence, as long as he counterattacks a few more times, with Qiao Anchen's shooting skills, it will be a matter of time before he scores a goal.
After two failed counterattacks, in the 87th minute, Atletico Madrid finally stole the ball again and launched an efficient counterattack.
This time the counterattack came quite suddenly. Mallorca right back Colclough's intention of passing the ball to right forward Ford Willie was seen through by Atletico Madrid left back Hobbs Alger, and suddenly he passed the ball from behind Ford Willie.
Jump out and intercept the ball.
Hobbs Alger, who stole the ball, didn't touch the ball at all, and immediately passed the ball to the attacking midfielder John Rupert, who turned around in the middle and advanced forward.
John Rupert stopped the ball and turned around to dodge the counter-attacking Mallorca player, then moved the ball forward and started a quick counterattack with the ball.
This time, Qiao Anchen rushed to the front. During repeated tests with the Mallorca defender, he successfully grasped John Rupert's passing tacit understanding and just happened to get stuck when John Rupert passed the ball.
In an instant, he rushed through the gap between the two Mallorca defenders, received Rupert's pass behind the back line, and formed a one-on-one shot.
Mallorca full-back George Barry immediately raised his hand to the linesman to signal that Joan Chen was offside, but neither the linesman nor the referee paid attention to him.
Qiao Anchen successfully countered offside and took the ball straight to Mallorca's penalty area.
But the problem is that Qiao Anchen's speed is not fast enough, and he has to dribble the ball forward, so his speed inevitably drops even more. As a result, when he is about to enter the penalty area, he is chased by center back Berkeley Hans and passes from the side.
Constantly pushing and pushing, trying to interfere, and even stretching his feet to steal the ball.
The goalkeeper Clutter Norton has also attacked into the penalty area.
Qiao Anchen's chance to shoot was fleeting. If he hesitated for a moment longer, he might be flanked by the goalkeeper and defender and lose the ball.
Then, everyone saw that Qiao Anchen opened his arms, used the left side of his body to bear the push of Berkeley Hans, raised his right foot and made a volley into the far corner.
The moment his foot fell, the uncertain goalkeeper Clutter Norton threw his body out in an attempt to save the ball.
What was surprising was that Qiao Anchen's shot from the penalty area was actually a fake shot. He actually made a fake shot and passed the ball.
He did not shoot, but flicked his ankle and passed the ball from the gap between him and the goalkeeper to the left side of the penalty spot in the penalty area.
The goalkeeper, who was deceived by Qiao Anchen's fake shot, was helpless, and the other Mallorca defenders were still unable to defend in place.
Center forward Wodehouse, who rushed up from the back row, ran into the penalty area unmarked, easily caught the ball and pushed the ball into the empty goal.
Wodehouse was behind Qiao Anchen at the moment when Qiao Anchen passed the ball, so the ball was not offside.
In the 87th minute, Qiao Anchen assisted Wodehouse and scored another goal, helping Atletico Madrid expand the score to 4-1, completely killing all the suspense of the game.
In the eyes of outsiders, Qiao Anchen's goal just now was a semi-one-shot opportunity. Although there was interference from the defender on his side and the goalkeeper blocked it in front, as long as he shot, with his shooting skills, he still had a high chance of scoring.
But Qiao Anchen chose the safest approach and gave the ball to Wodehouse, who was running in from the back row, giving Wodehouse a 100% chance to score an empty goal.
No matter who scored the goal, Wodehouse or coach Pozhe Theresa, as well as other players, fans, etc., all felt that Qiao Anchen was selfless, sacrificing his own possible goals in order to ensure that his team scored and killed the suspense of the game.
Ball opportunity.
Therefore, Pozhe Theresa and the fans excitedly applauded Wodehouse who scored the goal and Joan Anchen who was selfless.
Wodehouse, who scored the goal, did not rush to celebrate alone. Instead, he turned around and rushed towards Qiao Anchen, knocking him down directly. Together with his teammates, he pressed Qiao Anchen to the ground and stacked up to celebrate, thanking him for his selfless assist.
But how did they know that after weighing the pros and cons, Qiao Anchen chose not to shoot the ball himself, but to give the ball to Wodehouse in order to get the reward of two goals and assists.
If he shoots himself and scores another goal, he will just complete a hat trick. And he has already received the reward for the first hat trick in the U17a League, and there will be no additional reward for subsequent hat tricks.
And scoring two goals and assists not only has an extra reward, but it is twice as much as scoring twice. The reward for scoring twice in the U17a League is 4,000, so Qiao Anchen's "selfless" goal-distribution behavior this time earned him "
The reward for completing goals, assists, and scoring twice in the U17a League: 8,000 experience points.
This brings his total experience to level 12, 18,000/40,000.
Think about it, if one day you can complete a double hat trick of goals and assists, the reward will be even more generous, which is really exciting.
