Chapter 74 Addition Time
Moyes doesn't need to worry about his coaching position, even if the team won't win in all four rounds, or even if the league rankings drop to the lower half of the league.
Last season, Everton also encountered difficulties at the beginning. At that time, two wins, two draws and three losses ranked 15th, and was eliminated in the first round of the League Cup qualifiers. However, even at that time, even the British tabloids who like to spread rumors and make trouble did not make a fuss in his position as coach. The fans were still singing loudly in the stands, and the club gave Moyes' third contract in Everton: a five-year contract.
Moyes really deserves the trust of Everton. Since joining Everton seven years ago, Everton, who has been on the verge of relegation for several consecutive seasons, has gradually become a force that cannot be ignored under Moyes's men and rely on a limited budget. Before this season, they have entered the European arena for three consecutive seasons. To be honest, Moyes is Everton's Ferguson. When did he hear that Ferguson needs to worry about his coach position?
Today, Goodison Park Stadium is still packed, and the singing in the stands is still loud, while Moyes, like the previous games, frowned on the sidelines.
The scoreboard above the stands clearly shows the score at this time: 2:3.
The home team is behind.
Standing not far from Moyes was Lin Sen, who was also frowning, although the team was ahead, the game time was the 81st minute.
Due to the sudden drop in temperature in the UK recently, Lin Sen, born in southern China, was born without any resistance to the cold. When he wore a down jacket, he looked like he had gained weight. Compared with Moyes, who was wearing a suit and tie and a sports jacket, he was really not related to the word "simple". Except for the face that was a little white-cold, it was hard to tell where he was younger than Moyes. Even so, he still stood on the sidelines most of the time in this game, and every breath he took was like he was smoking.
Although the score was three to two, the process of this game was not really ups and downs. Because there were three goals scored within five minutes of the game, and after that, perhaps because of the weather, the two teams could be considered running on the court to keep warm.
Less than a minute into the opening game, former Manchester United striker Saha took the lead in breaking the deadlock. Then, before the fans in the stands even recovered from Saha's celebration, Manchester City equalized the score, from Bale's goal. After only three minutes, after a corner kick, Manchester City captain Dunn scored his first goal of the season by heading the ball.
The two-to-one score continued until the 75th minute, and Manchester City expanded the score. Suarez used his skillful personal skills to pass Everton and two central defenders, including Lescott, who almost transferred to Manchester City, and scored a goal.
The score became three-to-one. Although the fans in the stands were still unyielding, they had to admit that at this time, many people already believed that Everton had little chance of turning the tables, but at this time, he only led by less than a minute in this game. Everton, who had been chasing his opponent for most of the time, scored another goal. Barnes made a cross from the left, and the tall Fellaini headed the ball, and the Australian midfielder scored a long shot at the front of the penalty area.
Three to two.
Another score that makes both sides uneasy.
Moyes subconsciously raised his arm to look at the watch, because now, time is Everton's enemy. Like Linson, Moyes now hates the draw, but now, he finds that he still hopes that his team can equalize the score more than failure, even if that's the case.
Lin Sen focused on his team's two midfielders. Manchester City's two goals lost in this game were related to the two midfielders. The first goal was Xavi Martinez's tackle mistake, and the second goal was Vidal's marking and missing people. This pair of midfield partners that Manchester City spent a lot of money to build in the summer are indeed still a gap with Lin Sen's memory after becoming famous. Vidal is not the one who can take care of both offense and defense and do it.
With a perfect all-around midfielder, Harvey Martinez is not the one who can support the midfield defense of a team and be at ease with perfect midfield. Originally, according to Lin Sen's plan, Manchester City was the three major midfielder rotation. Ireland, as David Silva's substitute, can occasionally make a cameo appearance. Retrieve the Bend brothers next season, so it's enough to deal with the midfielder, but now it seems that his summer signings are indeed too ideal.
Perhaps, you can pay attention to the appropriate candidates in winter?
The game time is still passing by minute by minute, and leading Manchester City is not considered a strict defense. However, once the ball is obtained, if the opportunity is not good, they basically no longer take risks to seek breakthroughs. Instead, they take the ball control method to delay the remaining game time. Everton, who is behind at home, is obviously more impatient. They are helpless with Manchester City's ball control, and their actions gradually become bigger.
If you act a lot, it will easily cause disputes.
In the 86th minute, Phil Neville's fierce tackle made Lin Sen's body, which was originally cold and stiff, instantly hot, because he saw Bell's emotions clearly turned into panic under the other party's tackle.
It's not anger, nor disappointment, it's just panic.
For Lin Sen, in this case, panic is the color he least wants to see, because once this color appears, either the player is afraid of the confrontation, or even the player himself is uncertain about his injury. The former is psychological, while the latter is physical, and no matter which one is obviously not good news. What's more, the person who is fouling at the moment happens to be Phil Neville, the brother of former Manchester United player and current Manchester United captain Gary Neville. Lin Sen does not think he will be polite to a Manchester City player at all.
In Lin Sen's memory, Bale was seriously injured in the Premier League, the kind of 90 degrees that makes you feel creepy when you see it. What's more frustrating is that Lin Sen doesn't remember any injury in any game. Although he has changed Bale's trajectory, he doesn't know if this serious injury can be avoided, so he can only wait and then just let Bale, who is absolutely healthy, play. But even so, every time Bale is tackled to the ground, he is still a little worried.
At this time, Lin Sen saw that the referee Dean had just verbally warned Phil Neville and didn't even take out a card. He was furious and happened to be holding a bottle of water he had just drunk and fell directly on the grass.
The live broadcast footage accurately captured Lin Sen's movements. The Goodison Park Stadium, which was originally because of Bale's booing, suddenly became a huge hornet's nest, with buzzing everywhere. Obviously, in the eyes of Everton fans, Bale was not waking up to the ground, just taking the opportunity to delay time, and Lin Sen actually dared to be arrogant here?
At this time, the fourth official's eyes were already looking here, and Lin Sen's anger forced him to be alert.
However, after Lin Sen threw the water on the ground, his face was gloomy, but he did not move further. He just walked to the bench, and then Petrov got up to warm up.
Without waiting for the team doctor Jim Weber to check the results, Lin Sen made a substitution directly, Petrov came on and Bell got down.
Fortunately, Bale was able to limp and get out of the field with the help of the team doctor. When passing by, Lin Sen deliberately looked at it and found that his injury was indeed not serious, but there seemed to be signs of a strain on the cruciate ligament of the right knee. Look at this, there is absolutely no chance of the League Cup against Aston Villa next week, and he may not even be able to catch up with the league against West Ham United next week.
After seeing this, the anger that calmed down in my heart seemed to be a little more intense.
The game time that was not long was dragged by Bale, and the main game time was soon left. At this time, the fourth official gave stoppage time: six minutes on the sidelines.
Go to your mother's.
Lin Sen, who was angrily laughing, had no Aquarius on his hand now, but he did not go to find the fourth official who was just an angry bag to argue. Instead, he slowly walked back to the coach's seat and shook his head and sneered. Because Bell's injury just now, Lin Sen knew that the stoppage time would definitely be longer, but six minutes? A smoother game, the two sides only had to make up for six people after changing six people in the second half. Now Lin Sen has not changed two people! If it were changed, would it take ten minutes according to this posture?
What a fucking nonsense.
Lin Sen, who returned to the coaching seat, did not sit down for long, so he got up and asked Bellamy to prepare for the event with Little Wright.
Everton on the field launched the final full-scale attack, and the defense line almost exceeded half, leaving only Lescott behind, but Manchester City also retreated in full defense at this time, leaving only one Suarez still in the frontcourt, and even Robben retreated to participate in the defense.
Want to carry forward the football spirit of never giving up? It’s not easy!
You are doing the first day of the junior high school and I am doing the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. Lin Sen, who was about to change two people, deliberately changed the two people separately.
In the second minute of stoppage time, Manchester City made the first substitution. Bellamy replaced Suarez. The inexperienced Suarez actually jogged and took fifteen seconds.
In the fourth minute of stoppage time, Manchester City made a second substitution, Wright replaced Robben. The experienced Robben slowly walked away, which took twenty-five seconds.
In the fifth minute of stoppage time, Everton's long shot was confiscated by Jiwen. He held the ball and brewed for ten seconds. He stood up and waved the ball for another ten seconds. He prepared to kick off the ball for another ten seconds. At this time, the referee Dean ran over and gave a yellow card and "rewarded" for ten seconds.
OK, six minutes of stoppage time are over.
Lin Sen stood up and prepared to welcome the referee's whistle, but the game continued.
Another minute passed, just as stoppage time was heading towards the eighth minute, Everton ushered in their best chance since the second half. Cahill shot from a long shot and rebounded on Kompany, turning it into a wonderful pass. Unmarked Yakub scored a goal. Given turned their move into a head-cuff with a world-class save when the entire Goodison Stadium was about to raise his hands and cheer.
When Jiwen held the ball firmly in his arms, the final whistle finally rang.r1152
