Chapitre 68: Chapter 68
Genk returned from Liverpool and opened the 32nd round of the championship without stopping. The opponent is St. Turden, a municipal football team from the Belgian province of Limburg.
Wang Feng, who has experienced the excitement of the big game, continues to be enthusiastic about this game. In the first 5 minutes, Karl Beth brought the ball into the front half and passed diagonally to Jason Aldridge on the left wing. Aldridge in front of the box Qi lost his balance under the pressure of the defensive player but passed the ball with his right foot into the box before falling to the ground.
Wang Feng, who was ambushing in the penalty area, suddenly started to move towards the ball, and the defenders beside him quickly stepped forward to defend. If the ball does not fly high, there is definitely no way to compete for the top. If you stop the ball at your feet and then deal with it, it will delay time and get into a double-team situation.
Thoughts in Wang Feng's mind were spinning rapidly, and he made a decision in an instant. He raised his left foot, swept back against the falling ball, exerted strength on his leg, and shot a shot like a scorpion wagging its tail.
The ball was fast and urgent, and flew to the lower left corner of the goal. Although the goalkeeper of St. Turden tried his best to save it, he could only look at the ball and sigh. 1:0, Genk made a perfect start.
In the 34th minute, after midfielder Gareth Barry steals the ball, he plays a super long pass through the ball. Relying on his own speed, Wang Feng comes from behind and succeeds in anti-offside, throwing off the defense in the penalty area The player caught up with the ball. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, Vuong Phong calmly pushed the ball, the ball passed between the goalkeeper's legs and into Saint-Truden's goal.
After scoring two more goals, he ran up and pointed at Barry, signaling him to come celebrate the goal with him. 50% of the credit for scoring the goal was due to Barry's precise pass, the remaining 50% was due to Wang Feng's unprecedented speed advantage.
The first half ended with Genk taking the lead. While everyone thought Genk would win easily, the situation worsened in the second half. In the 51st minute, Wang Feng was fouled while holding the ball and fell to the ground. The referee on duty gave the opponent a yellow card. Although Wang Feng was fine, head coach Aimee Antonis was also breaking out in a cold sweat.
You know, the Europa League semi-final against Liverpool is the top priority. Even if Genk had the advantage in the first round, it's hard to imagine what the situation would be like without Wang Feng. Antonis therefore decided to replace Vuong Phong with a reserve midfielder to strengthen the team's defense.
The Genk players on the field have a slight gap due to their lead in the score. Furthermore, after Vuong Phong left the field, there were fewer people limiting Saint-Turden's defense. Minutes 69 and 81, St. Turden scored two equalizers. The score was even.
In the end, Genk's 3 points became 1 point, but their rival Anderlecht withstood the pressure in this round and defeated Brussels. Therefore, Genk's leading position in the standings has changed from 4 points reduced to 2 points.
In the locker room after the game, the head coach Antonis was furious: "With your mentality and level, why are you talking about beating Liverpool? Can you forget the scene of being behind by a big score?"
He rarely left everyone in the room, explained the mistakes made in the game to the players one by one, and did not leave until late at night, and then asked everyone to go to the training camp for training early the next morning to prepare for the game against Liverpool.
After the players left, assistant coach Quick Martin said, "Mr. Antonis, are you being too strict with them and putting extra pressure on the players."
Antonis shook his head, sighed and said, "I don't want to do this either, but since we have seen the dawn of victory, why don't we try our best? In fact, many of our players have a slightly lower skill level, but as long as we can play with 12 spirit points, we can still compete with strong teams.
.....
Three days later, Luminus Arena opened the challenge for Liverpool's Red Army. There is a red area in the blue sea, which is the area where the away team's fans gather. Even though there weren't many people, they still cheered enthusiastically for the team.
This was the first time the people of Genk saw the enthusiasm of the English fans, soon they were not left behind and sang the team song in unison, announcing to everyone that this was the stadium our!
In such a vibrant scene, players from both teams entered the stage. The faces of Liverpool players no longer looked depressed and confused like the recent defeat but were full of confidence.
Head coach Gilad Houllier told them before the match: "The only mistake we made in the previous round was not restraining Vuong Phong well, so in this match, we just need to give him If I borrow enough, be careful, don't let him do that." whatever. …and there is no reason to worry about others.
"Believe in us, we will definitely overcome Genk and win our trophy!"
After the match started, Liverpool's defense against Vuong Phong could be said to be crazy. When he's not holding the ball, there's always one or two people watching him. When he receives the ball, four or five people step up to form a double team. Of course, this will leave plenty of space for Genk's other attacking players. If it were a League One match, it would have easily turned into a goal, but now it's a match against Liverpool, one of the best defenses in the world.
The match situation was completely different from the previous match. Genk created many shots in the first half but unfortunately they went too straight or missed the target.
Liverpool, on the other hand, gave up extreme possession and used counter-attacks and positional positioning. Gary McAllister and Michael Owen each scored once, easily overturning the total score.
Genk head coach Antonis looked at Houllier on the opposite bench with an unsightly expression. He understood the old fox's tricks. Opening ~www.mtlnovel.com~ was even equivalent to kicking Wang Feng out of the arena with a few people.
Because Houllier believes that without Wang Feng, even if Genk has 10 players against Liverpool with 8, even 7 players, there is no chance of winning.
At the end of the first half, Wang Feng felt powerless. It was really uncomfortable to be flanked by three or four world-class defenders.
The other players of Genk were also very uncomfortable. They had a faint feeling of what Liverpool's strategy was on the field, but they had no good way, and their strengths were quite different.
"Damn it!" Carl Beth punched the locker room cabinet, and said unwillingly, "Should we just watch the team step by step into the abyss of failure?"
Jason Aldridge and Gareth Barry were also very frustrated. They thought their strength wasn't bad, but they didn't expect that during the competition, they simply ate too many vegetables.
Head coach Antonis did not have time to go to the locker room. He and the coaching staff are carefully discussing countermeasures, but after discussing it again and again, they all feel that this is a difficult problem.
In the final analysis, overall strength is still not enough. Relying on Wang Feng's unique luck and excellent performance, Henke has reached a level that is beyond his own strength. Just as the atmosphere in the locker room dropped to freezing point, Vuong Phong stood up and said: "Everyone, I'm sorry, my performance in the first half was very bad, but if you please, continue to believe trust me and leave the attack position." with me. "
Bess heard those words and said, "Wang, you don't need to apologize, it's not your problem." Brothers, please defend well in the second half and never let Liverpool score another goal!
After listening, everyone nodded seriously. Everyone opened their arms and surrounded the city in a circle. "Let them see the perseverance of our people of Henk," said Captain Aaron Abigail.
