Chapter 133 The First Match Again
On the field,

The Pengli team led by one point and reached 8 points first.

The two sides exchange venues.

After the game restarted, Jinling No. [-] Middle School caught the Pengli team's delay in block coordination with a backhand, and made a strong attack to the back row.

Lin Mu, who was transferred to the 5th position, slowed down his defense in the back row, failed to catch the ball, lost a point, and the two sides were evenly divided again.

After changing the serve, Lin Mu rotated to the front row, and this time, Han Chen maintained the principle of scheduling and passed the ball to Lin Mu from the 3rd position. However, Lin Mu finally failed to keep his body in the air. Formed, the spike in the 4th position was blocked by the opponent, and the opponent scored another point to overtake the score.

After the net players of Jinling No. [-] High School blocked the ball, they were extremely excited.They finally released some of the previous depression in this round. You know, Lin Mu played a lot of one-on-two and one-on-three in the first two rounds, which was really aggrieved.

Lin Mu only glanced at the opponent's player for a while, then looked away. The opponent celebrated happily, and seemed to have a provocative look in his eyes, but he didn't care at all.

However, he also knew that he did have a problem. For several consecutive balls, he was too tired and caused some deviations.

Even just after taking off, my legs felt like they were filled with lead. After barely taking off, I faced the block and wanted to make another impromptu change of accumulating power to stay in the air. In the end, I almost missed the point. The ball was dropped low and was blocked by the block. one is right.

He won't be too frustrated, but it is necessary to sum up the gains and losses and seek solutions.

He took two steps slowly, came to Han Chen's side, panted heavily, and patted his chest, "First... don't give it to me, um, don't give it to me, I... will cover you all now."

Han Chen nodded silently.

Lin Mu's teammates are also worried about Lin Mu's state. Although they are also tired, they are better than Lin Mu's state after all.

The opponents were actually not as strong as they used to be. After fighting for two hours, no one would be unaffected. However, when comparing the impact of the two parties due to physical strength, Lin Mu was slightly disadvantaged.

However, now that they saw Lin Mu's appearance, because Lin Mu was still insisting on walking with them with will and perseverance, they suddenly felt that their fatigue seemed to suddenly lighten up, and there were some ideas in their hearts Also stronger.

The Jinling team continued to serve.

Lin Mu bowed and put his hands on his knees, staring intently at the opposite side.

"Oh!"

"Have!"

The ball still flew as expected. This round he was in the 3rd position in the front row, but because of the arrangement he had just explained to Han Chen, Lu Wei, who was in the back row, was not present this round, so he intended to participate in receiving the serve.

As expected, the opponent's serve still found his direction. He didn't move quickly to let other teammates catch it, but took the initiative to catch the ball.

He made a strong effort, frowned and shouted, and took a pass.

Still so stable, sometimes I have to admit that catching the ball requires the basic skills of running and hard work, and catching the ball really requires some talent in ball feel and dexterity.

And these two items, Lin Mu is not lacking, even if his physical strength is limited now, as long as he does not sprint to chase the ball, take a step or two to catch it, and make some gesture adjustments at the moment of catching the ball, he can still do it.

Lin Mu's first pass even added some force, and the ball flew towards the net with a beautiful arc. The angle, direction, and strength were just right, and the pass was in place.

Han Chen hurried to the landing point, jumped up and passed the ball.

Because Lin Mu cannot participate in the second pass after receiving the serve, and he has just explained it, so for this round of the second pass, he needs to mobilize and choose the attack point.

Lin Mu was already running "slowly" in the front row, and Tang Bin and Liu Mingming were also preparing to attack the other front row attack points.

But this time, Han Chen did not choose the front row. The opponent's net front three were ready. He decisively cooperated with Zhou Ting, who was following up, and launched a strong attack from the back row.

Even if Lin Mu trotted to the front row and only half-hopped, he attracted a defensive target.In the front row, Tang Bin and Liu Mingming pretended to smash the ball and took off, which made room for Zhou Ting to succeed.

The ball passed through the net in a straight line, but the back row of Jinling No. [-] Middle School did not react, and the Pengli team scored successfully.

Lin Mu smiled in relief.

As long as you are conscious and work hard, you can slowly fill it.

Even a little correction is fine.

And the little bit filled by everyone will be gathered together because of the organic cooperation of the team.

The better the combination, the better the cooperation. As long as the players are not chaotic or panic, the tiny bits and pieces will eventually converge into a vast ocean, smoothing out the defects and smoothing the ups and downs.

The game was played one goal at a time, and Lin Mu gradually couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the team, but he still persisted.

He also always plays his role on the field, either catching the ball, or going to the net to form an attack point to involve the opponent's defense.

You really don't care about him, if you really think that he is completely dead, he will suddenly make a second pass, forcefully exert another force, and give the opponent a blow.

The players of the Pengli team also tried their best to show themselves in such offenses and defenses again and again.

There are still some people, because of physical strength, the overall strength is worse than at the beginning, but until now, it seems that the cooperation has become more harmonious.

After Lin Mu became weak, Han Chen finally assumed the responsibility of his main setter.

Although he passed some early passes during the coordination and actively pulled the opponent's defense, it was still not smooth, and Lin Mu's physical strength was limited, so he could no longer cooperate with Han Chen's scheduling pass.

But Han Chen really settled down, took the initiative to move, passed more, and he was really cooperating with every teammate.I am also exploring the limit between coordination and individuality little by little.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Mu is fighting with some half-herding sheep, and the offense and defense of the two sides are still evenly matched.

At the last moment, the overall physical condition of Jinling No. [-] Middle School was not as good as before. At least the footsteps in front of the net were much worse than before.

The original gap in physical fitness gradually became smaller than before.

Fighting for each other, switching offense and defense, the scores of Pengli and Jinling No. 2 Middle School rose alternately. In a blink of an eye, as Lin Mu scored a point with a light lob at No. 13, the number on the scoreboard changed. At 13:[-], the scores of the two teams returned to a tie.

It was Lin Mu's turn in the back row, and he served.

This is his third serve in this round, and he dragged his heavy feet, slowly walking towards the serving area.

"breathe……"

"breathe……"

"..."

Walking step by step, he tried his best to adjust his breathing and his body condition.

When he was 3 or 4 meters away from the end line, Lin Mu stopped.

He looked on both sides of the court, looked around the court and outside the court.

After retracting his gaze, he took the ball thrown by the staff and patted it lightly on the floor.

The calmer his mind became, he wanted to think about the next serve.

He must still be jumping vigorously, and he can still do it, but his physical strength is indeed insufficient, and it is difficult to reach the peak state in terms of speed and strength.

When he came over, he had to make the serving point closer to the end line.

Moreover, taking off with all his strength and hitting the ball with all his strength, in his current state, he felt that it was difficult to achieve both speed and strength and precise control of the angle.

The serve just before has proved that in a state of complete fatigue, his performance will inevitably be seriously affected.

But is it really possible to only find the angle under control?
More importantly, the fifth game has entered the final stage, and it takes 15 points to win the game, and it must be 15 points ahead of the opponent by two points.

If they continue to go back and forth, no one can say for sure what the score will be. At this moment, both sides' serve is not good, which also makes each other's attack seem to be extremely efficient.

He is very clear that his teammates have worked hard with him to get to the present, and he also knows that the more he plays, the less effect he can play and the greater the impact on his teammates. Great.

Let's serve, use all the remaining physical strength, no matter how effective it is, he probably won't be able to continue the game after serving the ball, if he can't win, it will be up to you later!

Lin Mu took a deep breath, looked to the sidelines, and after a few intertwined eyes, he retracted his gaze, extremely firm, without any hesitation in his heart.

"boom!"

Jump hard!

Lin Mu squeezed all the energy out of his body again, without looking for a stagnation in the air, and shot the ball straight.

Lin Mu delivered his serve in a manner completely similar to that of Li Feng.

Fly like a meteor, fast as lightning.

The volleyball flew across the half court in an instant, and the sudden ball surprised the receivers of Jinling No. [-] Middle School.

They really couldn't imagine that a person who had become more and more half-dead just now could still throw such a fast ball.

You know, the opponent's serving strength was not very good in the middle game just now, and they were more looking for angles to hit.

The very sudden ball caught Jinling No. [-] High School by surprise. They moved their feet after a little judgment, but they still couldn't catch the ball, and the ball flew!

The No.2 player moved quickly to catch up to the second point, but failed to catch up after all.

The serve scored, the score was 13:14.

Lin Mu did not return to the court, but took two steps to return to the serving point, panting heavily, raised his arms high, and greeted the cheers of his teammates.

"nice shot!"

"Captain, come one more!"

"come on!"

"come on!"

The shouts on and off the court echoed in the empty volleyball hall.

Lin Mu put down his arms, his breathing was still heavy, his face was covered with sweat, and his face looked greasy and shiny, the fatigue on his face and the unconscious decline of his body were clear at a glance.

However, no one would ignore this somewhat slumped figure at this moment, all eyes were focused on him, and at this moment he became the only focus of the audience.

Lin Mu didn't respond to any gazes. He lowered his head and patted the ball lightly again. This time, he patted more often.

He was trying to regulate his breathing and the trembling of his body muscles.

Little by little, he slowly suppressed the warnings issued by his body due to lack of physical strength.

Do it again, do it again.

"1-2-3!"

When the serving whistle sounded, he suddenly took another breath, raised his hand to throw the ball, and ran up, jumped, and swung his arms again——

"boom--"

The volleyball court was full of silence, and almost everyone's eyes were following the flying shadow of the ball.

Lin Mu's body fell to the ground, his legs softened, he couldn't help but staggered, his body shook a little, he supported his left hand, and stayed in a half-squat.

In his mind, suddenly there seemed to be countless flies chirping, "buzzing buzzing" non-stop, a little bit of stars flashed, he suddenly raised his head, and felt that there were bursts of blackness in front of him.

He still kept his eyes wide open, looking ahead, he wanted to see the ball.

He can't run anymore, and this ball will be his last performance of the game.

"Oh!"

Across the road network, he saw figures shuttling through the commotion on the opposite side, and then a dull voice came.

"Beep!"

The referee blows his whistle.

The audience was extremely silent, and all eyes were on the terrace next to the net. The referee slowly stretched out his right hand and pointed his finger at the Jinling team.

"beep~~"

Another long whistle, the referee announced that the game is over!
"No!"

The players from Jinling No. [-] Middle School let out a miserable cry, breaking the brief silence.

They flocked to the referee's stand in an instant, because they felt that the end of the game was too sudden.

Although they knew very well that the last serve was indeed in bounds, and, before the ball hit the ground, some of their players had already touched it slightly, the opponent's point was undisputed.

But this kind of concentration directly ushered in the result, and the gap was too big.

"Roar!"

"Victory, victory!"

"Win, haha!"

"..."

The members of the Pengli team didn't care about the opponent's feelings at all, they rushed to Lin Mu's side roaring excitedly.

Lin Mu was pulled up by his teammates, surrounded him in groups, with his arms around him, cheering and roaring.

Lin Mu felt a little stuffy and uncomfortable. The negative situation just now had not dissipated, and his eyes were still a little dark. However, at this moment, he smiled, and his smile was very warm, very gratifying, and very bright.

"it is good!"

sidelines,

Lu Lin took out his clenched fist from his trouser pocket, slowly stretched it out, and stood with his hand down.

I saw the substitute players yelling one by one, shuttled past him, and rushed into the field, with the slightest wind around him.

He closed his eyes fiercely, with an intense emotion lingering in his chest.

This is the team's first game in the Divisional Division, and they have experienced exceptional twists and turns.

Weaknesses appeared, the mentality of the players changed, and there were problems with the main force's coordination and thinking. After losing two games in a row, and then drawing two more games, relying on the integration of individuals and groups, and at the last moment, relying on unity, perseverance, and tenacious struggle, finally Come back and win.

The process was not perfect at all, and it was extremely brutal to let the second chase the third, especially in the last round, several times he was worried that he would completely collapse.

But the final answer is great!

"Coach Lu?"

A soft call came from behind, and Lu Lin opened his eyes to follow the sound.

It was the coach of Jinling No. [-] Middle School, who came over to greet Lu Lin on his own initiative.

"Hello, Coach Xu!"

"hehe Hello!"

Coach Xu smiled slightly, and said: "If I remember correctly, it was 81 or 82... I'm old, and I can't remember the exact time. But I should have seen you in the national team game... "

Lu Lin was a little puzzled, but still nodded.

There were a lot of domestic broadcasts of international games in those years. If you are concerned about national volleyball, it is not uncommon to say that you have seen it.

It's just that he didn't understand why the opponent's coach came over suddenly and mentioned this.

However, he didn't bother. He was going to say hello to the other party.

The game between the two teams is over, whether it is out of grace or politeness, it is appropriate to say hello to each other and exchange a few words.

"Haha, let me say that I remember correctly, yes, yes, so, Coach Lu..."

The two coaches chatted very harmoniously on the sidelines, and more than 20 players on and off the court were also bunched together at this moment.

It's just that one side is cold and the other side is flames.

It didn't take long before the two sides finally finished venting their feelings, staggered in front of the net, and shook hands to say goodbye.

"Congratulations!"

In the last group, the captains of the two teams shook hands. At this time, the captain of Jinling No. [-] Middle School barely maintained his demeanor and smiled dryly.

Lin Mu smiled back: "Well, thank you. You are very strong!"

"..."

The third squadron leader was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly said with a serious face: "Looking forward to the next battle!"

Lin Mu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay!"

"Captain, let's go!"

"goodbye!"

Lin Mu waved his hand to the opponent, followed by his teammates who called him and walked slowly to the sidelines.

The game is over, and after a while, the second match of Group A will start. Originally, they planned to stay and watch the match of their opponents in the same group, but their condition is not good at the moment, so they can only give up the idea of ​​starting now.

They just want to take a good rest, especially Lin Mu, he really doesn't want to move at all.

The competition will continue tomorrow, and it will be in the afternoon, around 4 o'clock, which is about 24 hours later.

Take it easy, everyone should take it easy when you get back later, and you need to seek Sister Feng's help, I'm too overdrawn today.

Moreover, after his physical strength was limited, he discovered many of his own shortcomings, and gained some insights from it. He needed to communicate with Coach Lu.

And tomorrow's game, and their next game...
