now!
Gu Ran was like a red-hot sharp blade, inserted directly into the left side of the Golden Fleece team's ribs!
The Golden Fleece team's left wing has completely collapsed!
What's even more troublesome is that too much force is wasted on the left, resulting in the Golden Fleece team's defensive force in their own penalty area being completely insufficient.
The Bucks Steel Horns penetrated into the 30-meter area of the frontcourt, 7v5 in the frontcourt!
Gu Ran raised his head and observed the situation on the field:
The two central defenders of the Golden Fleece huddled in the small penalty area to block the shooting angle——
Another defensive midfielder of the Golden Fleece team is sprinting towards Gu Ran from the middle of the penalty area to cover——
The remaining three Golden Fleece defensive players were guarding, intercepting and supporting other Bucks Steel Horns players——
Between the Golden Fleece midfielder and the two central defenders, there is a seemingly good breakthrough channel that can be directly inserted into and look for shooting opportunities close to the goal.
There is also a seemingly narrow passing channel between the midfielder and other defensive players.
At the edge of the Golden Fleece's penalty area, Minato and Sissy were desperately running through each other——
And in the back of the Golden Fleece's penalty area, the glider was unmarked!
Just at the moment when he raised his eyes and glanced, Gu Ran made a decision!
Gu Ran dribbled the ball into the breakthrough channel between the center back and midfielder in the penalty area!
The two central defenders and midfielder immediately contracted the double team!
They are fast, obviously very experienced, and well prepared!
However, in the next moment, Gu Ran suddenly used a step to turn and hit Ronaldo to hit the ball, pulling him outwards!
The seemingly narrow passing channel between the Golden Fleece midfielder and other defensive players suddenly became clear!
Without hesitation, Gu Ran directly activated the through pass with his mind: the magic lamp pointed the way!
That's right! Get behind!
The football flew up close to the ground, like a ball-shaped razor, shaving straight through the Golden Fleece team's under-manned defense, and flew directly in front of the unmarked glider!
"oh!!!"
Seeing Gu Ran's pass, the fans at the scene couldn't help but marvel.
This kick! It’s really amazing!
This pass was very sudden, as sudden as a nerve knife, and the Golden Fleece defensive players had no time to react!
The kicking technique of this ball is also very powerful and precise, and it also has obvious "guidance" guidance!
Yes! Now even if you dig out Coach Carter's grandma and put it there, his grandma can kick it in!
What shocked everyone at the scene the most was not Gu Ran's superb vision and skills for the through ball, but that Gu Ran didn't force a breakthrough and shot by himself. Instead, after feinting, he shot the ball immediately. I gave it to my teammates!
You know, Gu Ran is only one goal behind his opponent Qiaoli on the scorer list of this tournament!
If this ball is "alone", no one will blame him.
But Gu Ran didn’t! Gu Ran, with his super high intelligence, chose the easiest way to score!
——The glider worked hard and caught up with the through ball fed by Gu Ran before the Golden Fleece goalkeeper could attack. He fell to the ground and shot!
The football passed in front of the Golden Fleece goalkeeper's face and shot into the net!
The ball went in!
The ball went in! ! !
"yeah!!!"
Southampton fans and Cardiff fans were instantly excited!
The entire offense of the Bucks Steel Horns is so sharp! The combination is so beautiful! Gu Ran's fatal through ball was so passionate!
This is the 41st minute of the first half!
After the Golden Fleece's effort to equalize the game, within 20 seconds of the restart, the Bucks and Steel Horns relied on Gu Ran's almost demonic performance and Gu Ran's nerve-wracking pass and fatal through pass assists. , leading again!
The score on the big screen at the Millennium Stadium was immediately rewritten as: Rugby Golden Fleece 1:2 Southampton Bucks Steel Horns!
The players of the Golden Fleece team all gasped in despair.
They had just celebrated a goal, but Gu Ran slapped their backhand hard!
Especially their captain Jolly, whose face was red and blue at the moment, full of embarrassment - is there any use in being one goal ahead on the scorer list? If we can't win this game, there will be no next game!
The Bucks Steel Horns players all excitedly rushed to Gu Ran to celebrate!
The glider that had just scored a goal knelt down and jumped onto Gu Ran's thigh, hugging Gu Ran's thigh and not letting go!
Gu Ran felt so good feeding him the ball! The glider made everyone feel so comfortable!
Compared with Xi Mei's passing, Gu Ran's passing is simply dad-level!
Coach Carter and the substitute players also hugged and celebrated happily on the sidelines!
All the Southampton fans happily put their arms together and sang the song "There is a young and handsome oriental man named Gu Ran"!
What's even more outrageous is... Cardiff fans are also singing the song "There is a young and handsome oriental man named Gu Ran"!
The mentality of the Golden Fleece players is about to collapse!
This is such a fake home court!
They are clearly a stronger team than the Bucks Steel Horns. They clearly suppressed the Bucks Steel Horns for most of the game. They clearly have the top scorer forward...
However, they were beaten to pieces by a left back from China who had never been trained in a professional youth training camp!
Light~light light light light~
The bubbles of the Golden Fleece players dropped like crazy!
This isn't the end yet!
The referee called Adama, who had just stretched out his leg to hook Gu Ran, in front of him and showed him a yellow card!
Moreover, the referee also made a "I've got my eye on you" gesture to Adama, warning Adama that if he dares to make any foul moves, he will be sent off directly!
Adama bowed his head in frustration and accepted the punishment.
Outside the court, team doctor Mai Fu shouted urgently, asking Gu Ran if he needed treatment.
But his voice was completely drowned in the crazy cheers of the audience.
Gu Ran waved his hand at him, indicating that he was fine.
Gu Ran also sat on the turf, pulled off his socks, and showed his strong calves to Mai Fu.
The female fans at the scene screamed!
For them, this is even better than the goal just now!
The tibialis anterior, soleus, and gastrocnemius muscles on Gu Ran's calves are as exquisite as the masterpieces of sculptors!
There were two obvious white scratches on his calf, but the skin was not broken!
——The one hanging on Adama’s leg is actually very heavy!
But Gu Ran's constitution was 71 points, plus the Tin Woodman +3, so he just felt a little sore and numb at the time, but soon he felt no discomfort at all!
If this hadn't improved the physique and Tin Man, even if Gu Ran wasn't injured, it might have affected the rest of the game.
But now, Gu Ran is unscathed!
The fans at the scene saw that Gu Ran was not injured and cheered even more happily: "Hard! Hard! Hard!"
There were nearly tens of thousands of people in the entire Millennium Stadium shouting "hard" at the same time. This scene was quite shocking!
Annie really wanted to shout along!
Because she is the one who has the most say in this regard!
In the main stand, the small club scouts started discussing excitedly:
"Gu Ran is really too greedy!"
"This physique! So awesome!"
"I can't pull him down, I can't trip him, I can't shovel him! It's no exaggeration to say that he has become a god in amateur high school competitions!"
"This level of performance, without training, will definitely stand up even if it is put directly into the English League One!"
"I originally thought that Gu Ran was a speed impact player like Bell. Players who focus on speed are actually afraid of injury, and speed players will be useless once they are injured. But now it seems that Gu Ran is not only fast, He has good physical fitness, strong strength, high confrontation, and his physique is so awesome!”
"Wrong! I think Gu Ran's strongest points are not limited to these! His real best thing is his brain!"
"The body is just his tool, he is the one who plays football with his brain!"
"That's right! His on-the-spot reactions and the way he handles the ball are so amazing! Only after watching his attack or defense and then thinking about it carefully can you understand the high level of his golf IQ! His The idea of playing football is not only ahead of other players on the field, but also ahead of us, the scouts who are watching the game!"
"Yes! Is he really only 17 years old? Has he really never trained in a professional youth training camp? I won't believe it even to death!"
"His performance on the court is so mature and his golf IQ is so high!"
"He stands on the court, not to score goals, but to help the team win better! For this reason, we should buy him at all costs!"
"Shete! Why doesn't our club fully support my signing of Gu Ran!"
"Come on, it's just a small club like ours, just take a look and satisfy your cravings."
"When I think of Gu Ran joining Southampton Club, and Southampton Club is in the same League One as us, I'm trembling all over!"
"When you say that...I'm shaking all over!"
"Scab! Scab! Scab!!!"
"...This brother from Portsmouth is jealous beyond recognition!!!"
In the third row of seats, Chelsea's Emenalo quickly drew a series of technical breakdowns of Gu Ran's breakthroughs and passes on his scout notebook with trembling hands.
……Bravo!
It’s so exciting!
It’s so special, so special, so wonderful!
The more he dissected Gu Ran's movements, the more excited Emenaro became, unable to describe his feelings in words!
He wrote in his scouting notes: [Gu Ran, you are indeed my future at Chelsea! ]
After finishing writing, Emenaro suddenly felt his heart sink.
He saw Greg Decker in the front row also excitedly raising his arms and shouting "Hard" together with all the fans!
Greg is a die-hard Manchester United fan!
An ominous premonition spread in Emenalo's heart:
Greg will definitely reveal Gu Ran's existence to Manchester United!
After Manchester United knew about Gu Ran's existence, wouldn't they...raise the price?
Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!
Even if Manchester United raises the price, as long as Sister NO takes action personally, she will definitely be able to deal with Gu Ran, definitely!
——Emenalo has already thought of such a far-reaching step!
In the front row of the main stand, Old Les proudly asked the excited Greg: "Am I right? Do you feel the adrenaline rush?"
Greg gasped excitedly: "Gu Ran's kicking style is so passionate! Old Les, what the hell are you! How did you discover this kid? This kid is definitely a future demon star! Especially! It was his step-and-turn in the penalty area, God! It was so smooth! So silky! I seemed to see a teenage version of Cristiano Ronaldo! Watching him play, I really felt like I was back in the passionate days. Feeling! I feel my ambition is rising again! But, how do you know he can blitz? "
Old Les laughed and said without any trace of pretentiousness: "To tell you the truth Greg...my eyes are not vegetarian. I discovered Bell, and I also discovered Gu Ran. What about me? It is no exaggeration to say that a pair of eyes that have experienced vicissitudes of life are wise.”
Greg couldn't help but nodded, "As expected of you, old Les!"
After finishing speaking, Greg smacked his lips again, his scheming eyes full of light: "... Demon star, demon star."
At this time, on the green field, the celebration of the Bucks Steel Horns team ended, and the players returned to their respective positions with confidence.
——There are two more chances to pick up today.
On the way back to his position, Gu Ran took the opportunity to gather his thoughts and scanned the falling bubbles around him.
This time, Qiao Li was also within Gu Ran's 20-meter pickup range.
The drops dropped by other Golden Fleece players are average, but the blue bubble dropped by Jolly is still very good: stop the ball sideways +1.
Gu Ran had mastered this practical skill before.
Gu Ran didn't hesitate and directly collected the bubble from the air.
Stop the ball sideways +3!
The game starts again.
The fourth official on the sidelines gave the injury time of the first half - 3 minutes.
After the Golden Fleece kicked off, they obviously lost the momentum of their previous aggressive attack and just kicked back and forth in the center and right.
Seeing this situation, Gu Ran rushed towards the middle circle area and took the initiative to fight!
The Bucks Steel Horns played a shrinking defensive strategy for more than 40 minutes. In an instant, as Gu Ran's position was advanced, it changed to a full-court high press!
The situation has turned!
Tens of thousands of fans at the scene cheered passionately!
The Bucks Steel Horns are very aggressive and aggressive in their fight!
Gu Ran used close defense to limit the support of the Golden Fleece midfielder. Minato and Blind Man went up to intercept the Golden Fleece's right midfielder, while Bread and Hua Luo blocked Qiao Li!
The Golden Fleece team's advantages in the center and right were instantly suppressed!
The Golden Fleece team could only hurriedly knock the ball back to their own defensive midfielder.
The Bucks Steel Horns press forward as a whole!
The Golden Fleece team was unable to play the ball forward for a while, so they could only play it to the left through a reverse kick and handed it to Adama.
Adama also didn't expect the ball to be passed to him. After panicking, he accelerated the dribbling.
But he spent too much energy on guarding Gu Ran in the first half. By this time, he couldn't sprint at all.
Gu Ran started from the center and sprinted to intercept with a violent aesthetic attitude!
Even before the contact, Adama was already scared!
He wanted to pass the ball, but there was no teammate in front of him to respond to him, and the passing channel in the middle was blocked by Gu Ran!
Adama was afraid of losing the ball, so he could only stop the ball in his own half, turn around, and knock the ball back to his defensive midfielder.
Golden Fleece’s midfielder:…
Gu Ran used his inertia to knock Adama away, preventing Adama from being in a favorable contact area, and then returned to the middle to support him.
Gu Ran ran all over the field, crossing the left frontcourt and midfield areas!
During this process, Xi Mei honestly filled Gu Ran's left back position.
The cooperation between the Bucks and Steel Horns is now very tacit!
In the 3 minutes of stoppage time, the Golden Fleece team was under crazy high pressure from the Bucks Steel Horns and could not organize an offense at all!
The Golden Fleece team only has one Jolly in front, but their midfield and frontcourt formation has been cut open by Gu Ran's sharp piercing movement. No matter how good Jolly's shooting skills are, his teammates can't pass the ball. take!
This scene is so beautiful!
The depression the fans felt in the first half was all gone at this moment! And after being depressed, it’s twice as refreshing!
There were close to tens of thousands of fans in the audience, happily singing the song "There is a young and handsome Asian man named Gu Ran"!
The Golden Fleece team was completely stunned in the last few minutes of the first half!
beep--
With the referee's long whistle, the first half of the game is over!
Amid the cheers of the fans, the Bucks Steel Horns players left the field to take a break with their heads held high!
The Golden Fleece players all looked depressed and anxious!
Captain Jolly even threw away the towel handed to him by the substitute player and walked into the tunnel angrily.
South locker room.
As soon as Gu Ran left the locker room, Southampton Club's team doctor Mai Fu and physiotherapist Gregory came up to him immediately, supporting him one on the left and the other on the right.
Gregory said eagerly: "Gu! Quick, lie down on the physiotherapy bed!"
Mai Fu also followed: "We want to conduct a simple full-body examination on you."
Come again? ? ?
Gu Ran said quickly: "I'm fine, I'm really fine."
"This is our job, please cooperate!" Mai Fu frowned and said, "Some injuries are not visible to the naked eye."
Coach Carter next to him also nodded cautiously and said: "Yes, Gu Ran, you should listen to the team doctor's arrangements. You are now considered a professional player. Although your professional contract has not been officially activated, you are now a Southampton club." property, you'd better lie down and cooperate. When I analyze the tactics later, you just lie down and listen."
Damn it...
I feel a little embarrassed about this treatment.
Gu Ran smiled helplessly, "Then...okay."
Gu Ran lay down on the physiotherapy bed in the dressing room.
Other teammates who walked in gave him high fives.
No team member felt that the treatment Gu Ran enjoyed was excessive.
The fact that the Bucks and Steel Horns were able to hold on in the first half and lead by one goal was entirely due to Gu Ran's active fighting and constant sprinting.
Gu Ran didn't run much in the first 10 minutes, but in the next half hour, Gu Ran's running distance must have exceeded 5 kilometers, and the number of sprints was even more unpredictable.
Needless to say, just look at how Adama and Gavin were being walked by Gu Ran and you will know how fiercely Gu Ran ran.
Gregory took off Gu Ran's sneakers and socks and began to massage and relax Gu Ran's leg muscles.
Mai Fu took out a small notebook and checked Gu Ran's possible injured areas according to the records he recorded in the small notebook.
Gu Ranren asked in shock: "Maifu, have you still taken notes?"
Maeve said with a serious face: "Of course! Every time the opponent player comes into contact with you, including the part of the contact, I write it down in a small notebook! This way, I can check your possible injured parts without missing a beat. .”
Damn it!
This is called professionalism!
Gu Ran couldn't help but nodded appreciatively.
Mai Fu carefully checked around, and then focused on Gu Ran's hooked calf, and then let out a breath of disbelief, "Gu, you really don't have any problems at all! Your physique is very good. OK!"
Gu Ran smiled and said, "It can't be considered physical fitness, it's mainly because the opponent is too weak."
This is not exactly modest.
The Golden Fleece team is certainly strong in amateur high school competitions, but Gu Ran's current physical level is no longer at the amateur level, but has reached at least the level of England's second division.
Even in the English League Two, Gu Ran is confident that he can dominate the situation.
Of course, to play in the more competitive League One, Gu Ran still needs some time to improve several key physical attributes to above 75 points.
——After the high school amateur competition is over, I will train with the club’s U18 youth training team for more than a week and play two friendly matches. I guess I will almost reach the standard!
Mai Fu grinned and said: "After checking and confirming that you are fine, I am completely relieved. But Gu, I still want to remind you that injuries are the biggest enemy of professional athletes. If you can avoid injuries, you must avoid them."
Gu Ran nodded, "Okay, I'll remember it. Thank you, Maiv."
Maeve nodded with satisfaction.
After all the players arrived, Coach Carter took the lead in applauding, "My kids! Your performance in the first half was great! I'm proud of you! I'm proud of you!"
"In the first half, you strictly implemented the tactics and strategies we set before and defended the Golden Fleece team's attacks one after another!"
"You have already consumed more than half of the Golden Fleece team's mentality and physical fitness!"
"And you scored two goals!"
"This is awesome!"
"But it's not enough! We still have a more difficult second half to play!"
"In the second half, our strategy is very simple! Just continue to play defensive counterattack!"
"However, our defensive strategy is no longer to shrink the defense, but to continue your tactics in the injury time of the first half, high pressure!"
"Yes, in the second half, we will use the tactics the Golden Fleece used against us in the first half to counter-press them!"
"I boldly pressed forward on all three lines to defend, causing offside in the backcourt, leaving their single-point forward Jolly useless!"
"We want the Golden Fleece team, whose physical fitness is no longer as good as ours, to press in their half, making it impossible for us to organize an offense! Beat the shit out of them!"
"Of course, this will be a great test for your physical fitness and will!"
"Can you do it?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
The Bucks Steel Horns players raised their arms and shouted excitedly.
"Very good, while you rest and replenish your fluids, I will arrange specific tactical tasks for you..."
Coach Carter quickly drew the key points on the tactical board.
The 15-minute intermission is over!
Players from both sides appeared again, changing sides and fighting again.
The more exciting second half is here!
