Legendary Godfather

"Wow! Heskey is very good this time. He is only one point away from scoring. What a pity!" Mortensen said in great surprise.

Shearer also nodded in agreement and said, "This ball shows Heskey's ability. He can jump high in the crowd and grab this point. He is already very good. And he also headed the ball very well and completed it very well." If it's high, it's just a bit of luck! It seems that Heskey is still of some use. If Heskey continues to stay on the court, the Leeds United people will definitely be worried about the high ball from the Crystal Palace people! Perhaps Warnock also I will be struggling, should I replace him with a taller central defender to specifically target Heskey?"

After hearing this, Mortensen felt that it was somewhat interesting.

However, Mortensen soon thought of something and immediately went to check the information in his hand.

Mortensen immediately exclaimed, "But Warnock didn't bring a substitute centre-back at all in this game. He actually brought four substitute forwards! Hiss, Warnock's thinking is really strange!"

Hearing this, Hiller was also shocked.

He even wondered if Mortensen had seen it wrong. He turned to stare at Mortensen in shock.

Seeing Mortensen nodding, he still didn't believe it, and then he lowered his head to read the information himself. After looking at the information, it turned out to be exactly what Mortensen said.

Warnock didn't even bring a substitute centre-back.

Moreover, among the substitute players brought by Warnock, except for the goalkeeper and one of the forwards, no one is taller than 180. To be honest, Hiller doesn't even know what Warnock is thinking?

And among the bench lineup, the tallest one is substitute goalkeeper Jamie Ashdown, who is 190cm tall.

Should Ashdown be substituted as a central defender in the second half of the game?

Shearer said in disbelief, "I really don't understand Warnock's thoughts. It seems that this game really brought Warnock to the point of no return! I now understand why Leeds United fans We want Warnock sacked so badly!"

Warnock’s idea is really weird!

After hearing Shearer's words, Leeds United fans at the scene and in front of the TV shouted "Warnock, get out of class is dismissed!"

At this time, Shearer said, "If this is the case, I would suggest Mr. Tong Yi to keep Heskey on the court. With Heskey here, Crystal Palace cannot lose this game!"

beep!

At this time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

Crystal Palace, playing away from home, is currently leading Leeds United 1-0.

However, in the eyes of all the fans at the scene and on the TV, Crystal Palace had actually secured the victory in this game, and Leeds United simply could not afford to make any trouble.

Back at halftime, the Crystal Palace players looked very relaxed and at ease.

It can be seen that everyone is in a very good mood

.

There is no suspense in this game, they will definitely win.

If it weren't for Heskey's poor ability to seize opportunities in the first half, they would have defeated Leeds United in the first half of the game. The Crystal Palace players firmly believed that they would win this game.

Seeing the state of the Crystal Palace players, Tong Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and thought it was not good.

He immediately reminded the Crystal Palace players not to let down their guard and not to underestimate their opponents. In this second half of the game, they still need to have a correct attitude, show their energy, play with the team seriously, and absolutely cannot take it lightly.

The Crystal Palace players nodded and expressed their understanding.

However, Tong Yi was still a little worried.

Campbell said at this time, "Boss, don't be too cautious. Although the players are a little relaxed, I think they are still in condition. Don't worry about this game."

Vieri also came over to persuade and said, "Yes, I think Sol is right."

Hearing what these two people said, Tong Yi also nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Campbell continued to suggest, "Boss, I see that Leeds United does not have a substitute central defender on the bench, and except for the substitute goalkeeper, no other player is taller than their two starting central defenders. I think, We can keep Emile on the pitch in the second half of the season, which is a huge threat to Leeds United!"

Tong Yi looked at the information Campbell got from Schwartz, nodded slightly and said, "Yes! Okay!"

Then Tong Yi signaled Campbell to adjust the mentality of the Crystal Palace players.

On the other side, the Leeds United players were depressed and looked ugly.

Seeing this, Warnock scolded the Leeds United players mercilessly, and then walked away directly, leaving these Leeds United players to reflect on themselves in the dressing room. .

Soon, the fifteen minutes of halftime had passed.

The second half of the game between the two sides officially started.

"The second half of this game started. We can see that after returning from the halftime break, neither side made any substitution adjustments. It seems that Tong Yi still kept Heskey, preparing to let him continue to use his height advantage To suppress the two central defenders on the opposite side, it seems that Leeds United will still play high ball in the second half!" Mortensen said.

"It's actually right to continue playing high ball. Leeds United's two central defenders can't resist it! Hey... what's going on?" Suddenly, Shearer screamed, which shocked the fans at the scene and in front of the TV. I was shocked.

Tong Yi, who was on the sidelines, stood up immediately and stared at the court in disbelief.

second half

The game has just started, and Leeds United has undergone great changes. They are completely different from the first half of the game. The spirit of the Leeds United players is completely different, very fierce. As soon as they came up, they reversed the situation and started a crazy attack.

What's more important is that no one expected the Crystal Palace people to let the opponent hit the dangerous position at the front of their penalty area so easily.

There was a fatal flaw in Dickagakoy's defense. He easily let the opponent's offensive player Green pass, and his body even blocked Jedinak, who came to fill in and press, instantly allowing Green to escape. He comfortably headed towards the penalty area of ​​the Crystal Palace.

Seeing this, Tong Yi felt that he was dazzled.

How could such a low-level mistake happen?

He also said that the two guys Dickagakoy and Jedinak were a little slack, and they didn't expect it. Did this lead to such a bad situation?

damn it!

Haven't I already reminded you? Don't relax in the second half of the game, keep your spirits up, and don't underestimate your opponents? What are you doing?

Tong Yi was very angry! ??

What made Tong Yi even more angry was what happened behind.

After Green broke through, he immediately brought out Van Dijk. Then Green quickly pushed the football to the side and moved forward quickly.

At this moment, Van Dijk's attention has shifted to the football rolling to the wing. He immediately turned in the direction of the football, and then subconsciously waved his hand to block the advancing Green.

Unexpectedly, Van Dijk's wave of his hand hit Green's Adam's apple firmly, as he rushed forward.

Green collapsed in response, crying and falling into the Crystal Palace penalty area.

After the pale-faced Green fell to the ground, his vision went dark and he almost couldn't breathe.

Toot toot!

Without saying a word, the referee directly blew the whistle, indicating that Van Dijk had committed a foul, pointed his finger at the penalty spot, and awarded a penalty kick. And without hesitation, he took out a red card from his butt pocket and showed it directly to Van Dijk!

Van Dijk, red card sent off!

This change happened so suddenly that no one even reacted.

Then, the Leeds United fans screamed with joy and roared wildly. Some guys even took off their jerseys, held them in their hands and raised them above their heads, shaking them excitedly.

"Penalty kick! Penalty kick! The referee was very decisive and awarded a penalty kick directly! Leeds United has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This is their perfect opportunity to equalize the score!" Mortensen was also very excited. I thought he would think that the second half of the game would be as calm as a pool of stagnant water. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed and the waves started to rise again.

This game seems to be going slowly

It makes some sense.

"Red card! The referee showed the red card to Van Dijk without hesitation! It seems that he saw it very clearly. Judging from our broadcast footage, the referee was right in front of him. He saw the ball very clearly. It does constitute a red card!" Shearer also said in surprise.

Who could have imagined that the turning point would come so suddenly?

Seeing this, Tong Yi was very helpless. He could only spread his hands! He reminded everyone during the halftime break not to take the game lightly and not to underestimate the opponent. But these guys didn't listen, and they obviously relaxed in the second half of the game. Otherwise, Dirkgakojedinak and Van Dijk would not have made such mistakes. Especially Van Dijk!

This ball is really unjustifiable!

Tong Yi sighed and wanted to curse these guys angrily. But he didn't, he just stood quietly on the sidelines.

This made Campbell and others feel ashamed.

Especially Campbell and Vieri, because during the halftime break, they stood up and spoke to the players, saying that it would be okay to relax a little.

Are you okay now?

Campbell and Vieri were so ashamed!

Of course, Van Dijk was a little confused in the stadium, but he still felt very ashamed.

When he was off the field, he didn't even dare to look into Tong Yi's eyes.

However, he still came to Tong Yi and admitted his mistake and said, "I'm sorry, boss, I was wrong. This goal is my full responsibility. I'm sorry, I betrayed your trust!"

Then, Van Dijk bowed to Tong Yi.

Tong Yi had a cold face and waved Van Dijk away. Van Dijk sighed and walked into the tunnel.

Tong Yi immediately turned around and shouted to the bench, "Damian, go warm up!"

Delaney immediately got up and ran to warm up.

At this time, Leeds United's winger Thomas, who came from Arsenal's youth training, blasted the football into the Crystal Palace goal with a heavy shot. Mendi had no way to do anything.

Leeds United equalized the score.

Two to two!

Not long after, Crystal Palace immediately made a substitution, replacing Bolasie with Delaney.

However, just after the substitution, Leeds United scored again.

This time, it was Leeds United who played exquisite cooperation in the frontcourt and directly passed the Crystal Palace defense. Their leading forward Becchio broke through the goal guarded by Mendi and took the lead.

The Argentinian striker Becchio is quite good. He came to Leeds United for three seasons. His goals in the first three seasons were 19, 17 and 20 respectively. He is Leeds United's well-deserved top scorer in the team. In this game, he helped Leeds United beat Crystal Palace, the league leader, at their home stadium at Elland Road, and helped head coach Warnock get a life-saving three points.
