Chapter 23 The Twelfth Person
Scolded the next door, they ate spring medicine in the middle of the game? Although their own team is still blasting Santos' goal wildly, it seems that the effect is about to be achieved, but what's the difference between their own goal and Santos? S?o Paulo coach cursed secretly.
The thief failed to steal the chicken and ended up losing rice instead. He moved a rock that hit his own foot, this matter is going to happen, he will jump to the sky!
S?o Paulo's coach is no longer sitting on the grass and looks very anxious.
He remembered why he had brought his team here in the first place, to thrash Santos before the tournament started. But now things seemed to be getting worse and worse?
Chan Ho Nam was worried about the team's defensive problem, but Denerison seemed not to care at all? He couldn't help but glance sideways at Denerison.
Hey, what's with this guy and his airplane...
Actually, there's nothing much to it. Brazilians will not worry about defense? Attack, continuous attack, and win, that's the final result.
Without offense, defense is useless. This isn't Italy, this is Brazil. Chen Haonan just doesn't understand that.
It turned out that Drenthe's carefree attitude was justified, as Nicolas suddenly sent a through ball, Guti's clever movement got away from the opposing defender, successfully getting behind him and entering the penalty area, stumbling and staggering to finish with a push shot.
The score was finally tied, and it wasn't until then that Dinesen celebrated like a child, waving his arms and legs.
Guthrie and Nicholas, who had just completed their jump, shared a hearty hug...
This is a relieving goal, after waiting for more than 60 minutes, finally making the enemy suffer at home, where's the reason not to be happy.
At this time, the fans' seats, which had been silent for an hour, finally erupted in scattered applause.
Uh... is this all the applause I get? Dinesen only realized the awkwardness behind him after he finished celebrating.
The game was actually quite boring, no wonder the fans were dozing off in the back...
The coach of S?o Paulo finally jumped up.
It wasn't his team that continued to score, but was tied. He got angry and suddenly called five new players in front of him, then took advantage of the game not being restarted yet and replaced all five at once.
It's a friendly match, there is no limit on the number of substitutions. He brought 16 people this time, except for the substitute goalkeeper who was not substituted in, all the other five substitutes played, you can see how anxious he is.
"This is called a dog jumping over a wall... haha." Denerison laughed even more lightly, as if watching a funny TV show.
But his smile didn't last long, and a huge change occurred on the field.
The police referee who has been blowing the whistle quite well throughout the match actually gave a penalty?!
Yes, awarding a penalty is just that, but his big gift was given not to Santos, but to S?o Paulo...
"Damn it! Is this guy's brain squeezed by the door?! He's a complete idiot, no matter how hard he blows, he won't give gifts to outsiders! I'm fed up! Which eye saw that foul?!"
For the first time... Chan Ho Nam heard Denilson's foul language!
"Damn cops, as expected, no good cops exist, all with the same moral character, seeing money opens their eyes... but when was this guy bribed? Unbelievable......" Denilson's curses became more and more outrageous, his voice loud enough for the entire training ground to hear.
Nature, the police judge also heard it.
He hastily ran over to Nielsen's side.
Without hesitation, a red card was shown to Deneilson, which was actually just a red cloth strip... Because the game started in a hurry, there were no yellow and red cards prepared.
Denilson naturally understood what it meant, having played for so many years, and was ejected from the sidelines for the first time.
"What?! Have you gone mad?! This is just a friendly match!" Denilson bellowed, fully embodying the role of a commander...
The icing on the cake was that after he climbed up to the stands in a huff, the opposing team's penalty shot went in.
The score became 1-2 again.
"That policeman... is he one of our local policemen?" Denilson sat down and looked in the direction where the previous police had been, asking a local old fan.
"He's not from our town, you just called him a referee, didn't you see the Saint Paul badge on his shoulder?" Even the fans stared at him in shock.
Dennilson was like being struck by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, stunned on the spot...
He really didn't know this, if it wasn't for this sleeping ball fan waking up and telling him, he would still be smiling secretly.
"Give me an autograph..." And this old fan, obviously also a formidable figure, recognized the former soccer star when Denilson climbed up to the stands and didn't forget to ask for an autograph...
De Nilsen's face turned black as he took over the paper and pen and signed with a flourish.
It's been a long time since I signed...I didn't expect to be signing for fans here, but is my team's first away game really going to end in defeat?
That damned Serres, was he here to wreck the scene or humiliate me? Denilson finally lifted his head and looked towards S?o Paulo.
Yes, the coach of that S?o Paulo youth team who mocked him for over an hour is now the one he's cursing in his heart, Cerezo... Cerezo Alonso...
"Hao Nan! Warm up quickly! Get ready to go on the field!" Denilson stood up reluctantly and shouted loudly at Chen Hao Nan who was standing by the side of the court.
Red card? You got a red card, Fak. I'll keep shouting anyway. At this time, if we really get killed by Cerezo, won't I be laughed to death by my wife when I get back home later?
No way, at least not now... Danielsen shouted in his heart.
Chan Ho Nam was focused on the match but heard Denison's command.
This... maybe going up to play for a few minutes won't hurt, after all they're just a bunch of kids.
Chen Haonan actually struggled in his heart for a long time, watching the game for so long. For someone who likes football, it's strange if their feet don't itch. Although he often denies liking football with his mouth, and although he despises those Brazilians who look down on him.
But for now, this still somewhat decent teammate is thinking about winning together with everyone.
So in the end, he sat down and started cleaning his basketball shoes...
After S?o Paulo took the lead, the referee's penalty seemed to return to normal, and the scale of blowing penalties also seemed to be much better...
Even Santos' foul in his own penalty area was ignored by him.
What the hell is going on?! Santos' young center-back just broke out in a cold sweat, thinking he was about to suffer another disaster, but then saw the referee raise his hands and signal for the game to continue. He's now completely bewildered and can't figure out whose side this referee is really on.
S?o Paulo coach Alonso is still on the field, the game has been going on for seventy-five minutes, and seeing that the team still hasn't scored a goal, he's getting anxious, thinking that the referee will blow another penalty kick to complete his hat-trick plan, but nothing is happening now.
At this time, Chan Ho-nam came on stage.
Drenthe is not there, he replaced a midfielder according to his own ideas.
It's just a normal substitution, Alonso didn't mind at all. As long as the referee is there, no one can save Santos...
But Santos players don't think so. Chen Haonan came today and has already made a name for himself, maybe he can really bring surprises?
As soon as they took to the field, Nicholas directly kicked the ball to Chen Haonan.
Chen Haonan just didn't warm up much earlier, fearing that warming up would cause his foot injury to relapse. He simply walked lightly around the edge of the court for three or five laps, which was considered a warm-up.
He is not out of energy, but rather injured from climbing.
Chan Ho-nam looked at the ball, although there were some ripples in his heart, he still easily dropped the ball and immediately kicked it to another teammate without stopping.
Guti was already ahead of everyone else, expecting Chan Ho Nam to pass the ball to him, but he was disappointed as Chan Ho Nam didn't do so.
Guti's disappointed pacing back and forth, thinking to himself that he was just all talk after all?
Chen Haonan almost stood still on the spot, his position hardly moved at all.
Is... is he going to kick it without moving? Denerlsen looked at him seriously from the sidelines, and his heart was also tangled.
Only Saint Paul's coach is gloating, haha, it turns out that a useless person was sent, definitely trying to shirk responsibility...
Chen Haonan is not as despicable as they think, he just wants to get used to the atmosphere and rhythm of the game. It's been a long time since he last played a match, and in his heart, he is actually very nervous.
But he doesn't have so much time to think.
Nicholas was determined to pass the ball to him, and the ball came rolling again!
*sigh*... Alright. Maybe, Si Tu Hao Nan will arrive tomorrow then...
Elegant unloading of the ball, quick lifting of legs, freely releasing the ball, with a fully stretched body.
It's just a simple action, but it looks like a beautiful photo in a camera.
Chan Ho-nam was quite agile and quick in his movements on the spot, even when an opponent player rushed up to him, he didn't even touch his jersey.
Everyone was stunned, how did he manage to get away with it?
It seems like just a slight swing of the body, as if using a clock pendulum?
People didn't have time to think much, but the ball had already stuck to the tender green grass and spun away at high speed.
Ekin Cheng is using his right foot's arch to push out...
To avoid re-injuring his ankle, he chose the safest passing option.
Guti has been continuously asking for defense from the opponent's tall center back, and is now in a counter-attacking position.
This time, although he was just stifled by Chen Haonan, he still chose to believe and plunged forward with his head down.
When people arrive, the ball arrives; when the ball arrives, people also arrive. It's as if they've rehearsed it before.
That's what they call coordination, tacit understanding...
This time Gutierrez was no longer in a sorry state, no longer staggering.
Because he has sufficient preparation for adjustment and shooting.
Chan Ho Nam's that one foot pass is too comfortable, so comfortable that he only needs to lift his legs well and then touch it...
If Nicholas' pass can penetrate the defense line and give Guti a chance to shoot, then Chan Ho Nam's pass is like setting up a perfect cannon platform, only waiting for Guti to ignite...
Koo detoured symbolically with both hands and rushed towards Chan Ho-nam.
Chen Haonan's face turned gloomy... thinking to himself it's a good thing the distance isn't far, otherwise this ball's speed and flying power wouldn't be enough, and he really would have thrown it badly...
At this time, Gutierrez had already knocked him to the ground, as if he was going to rape him on the spot. What's more, Nicolas also pressed down in the same way, clearly wanting to have a threesome...
