Godfather Of Champions

Today's scene must have surprised all English people, especially those English players who were playing games at the Nou Camp last night while warming up.

In their minds, Wales is an ant that can be crushed to death with just one finger. This game is used to adjust the state.

But now the ant took a bite while holding the nose of the English elephant. The elephant was so painful that tears fell.

Three minutes ago...

※※※

Tony Dunn knows that Wales will choose a more conservative tactic when facing England. It is a good result to be able to draw against England and get a point. So he also changed his tactics and didn't let the team continue to defend and counterattack. Defensive counterattacks are used to deal with strong teams, or weapons that consider themselves strong. Fight the underdogs and take the initiative to win the game.

So the scene of this game and the previous game turned around. In the last game, Portugal almost played against England. In this game, England wants to show their equally good offensive ability to the fans all over the world and even in front of the TV.

When the other party can't threaten him, Dunn will also do some "face-saving projects".

But England met with unexpected big resistance.

Wales must have carefully studied England's recent games, especially their victory over Argentina and Portugal, and then stole England's "defensive counterattack" in training.

Breaking intensive defense is a problem for coaches all over the world. In the last game, Dunn was proud that he stumped Queiroz. In this game, he himself will face such a problem.

What should I do if I cannot enter the restricted area? Dunn asked the team to strengthen long-range shots. However, only Gerrard is a good long-range shooter in the team, and there are a few offensive points. Wales can easily target Gerrard and organize his long-range shots.

Rooney will also pull out long shots, but it has little effect. Mitchell simply disappeared in the opponent's dense defense.

Welsh’s defense has been very successful. In terms of offense, their people seem to have no focus. As long as they have physical contact with England players, they will fall in all likelihood.

The referee also seems to be partial to the weak. More than half of the physical contact between the two sides will penalize an English player for a foul. As a result, Wales won a lot of set kicks. It's just that they are not very close to the goal, and they are not within the effective range. There is no way to directly threaten England's goal. The English did not take it to heart.

Of course Dunn could see Toshak's intestines. But he was not worried. It is not easy for Wales, whose offense is weak, to get a free kick that can directly threaten the goal. After his roaring reminders off the court, England players always care about their foul location and try not to give Wales a set kick in a dangerous zone. Even corner kicks are rarely given to each other.

Both sides played dull in the first half, England couldn't score, and Wales didn't have much to fight back.

Just four minutes into the second half, Wales took advantage of their kick-off opportunity and attacked for a while, and finally got a set ball directly to the goal.

"This is the best free kick that Wales has won so far! The distance is a bit far, 30 meters, but it is directly on the goal, either left or right. As long as you seize the opportunity, Wales should be able to threaten England’s goal. Let their offensive frenzy curb a little bit.” Even Wales’ own TV commentators do not expect Wales to score goals. For him, Wales’ tactics are just to reduce their defensive pressure.

Tosak saw that the team finally got a free kick in a good position. He got up from his seat and walked to the side of the court, watching the court nervously.

They endured for forty-nine minutes...No, since the game against the German team, they have been pretending to be grandson until now, it's time!

He saw Gareth Bale holding the football to the opponent's foul spot and placing the football carefully on the ground.

As an experienced coach, he also felt a little nervous.

There is Tony Dunn who is as nervous as Tosak. As the person who personally dug Bell from Southampton to the forest, he knows how good Bell's free kick ability is. He was very good "before", and after his own deliberate training, it is even better.

Sitting on the bench all the time, there was no movement. George Wood, who looked like a wax figure, changed his expression. He raised his head and stared at the court with some attention, frowning slightly.

The thirty-meter position may seem a little far away, but for Gareth Bale, it was just his best range. Bell's free kick is fast and powerful, and it is very lethal with the appropriate arc. He is not the kind of free kicker who wins by pure arc. Therefore, the distance is more helpful for his performance. If it is too close, it will either hit the wall or directly above the beam. Thirty meters...it is a good distance.

Bell placed the football on the ground, got up and looked at it, then leaned over and placed it again, placing the ADIDAS logo facing the goal. Then he got up and backed away, instead of staring at the goal and the wall, he turned to look at the sidelines.

He saw the Welsh coach Tosak and Tony Dunn who was also standing on the sidelines.

He did not expect to meet the boss in such an important game. He had promised the boss that he would go to Spain before, but he never thought about becoming an opponent of the boss in Spain...

Dunn noticed that Bell was looking at him, so a smile appeared on his tight face, so he wouldn't let the little monkey see his nervousness.

※※※

England's wall was finally set up, and the referee retired and signaled that he must wait for him to whistle before kicking the free kick.

Bell didn't pay much attention to it.

He found that before kicking a free kick, a lot of distracting thoughts popped up in his mind. He thought of a lot of things, including his first meeting with the boss outside the training ground in Southampton, his first professional contract, and his first score in the Chelsea game. A goal, the boss promised to show him a more personal celebration than Mourinho.

In the twelve seasons in Nottingham Forest, as long as the memories of the boss are always happy. That feeling made him reluctant to give up.

But it's not right to appear at this time...

Bell shook his head, trying to drive these messy thoughts out of his brain. You know, you are in a game now, how can you let such things interfere with yourself?

Gareth Bale stood in front of the ball and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He muttered silently in his mouth: "We are enemies now, boss..."

In the teaching of Tony Dunn, he never let his players release water when facing the enemy.

Because Dunn has instilled a sense of pride in the players of Nottingham Forest, the proud Nottingham Forest players can never do things like deliberately releasing water. Wherever they go, the origin of Nottingham Forest makes them proud and makes them stand out from the crowd. Rebelliousness and arrogance are their collective trademarks. This is the momentum that European football teams should have in the past ten years. Even if the boss has left, this momentum will remain in the hearts of the old players in Nottingham Forest.

The referee's raised arm was lowered, and he blew the whistle in his mouth.

Bell glanced at the positional relationship between the wall, the goal, and the goalkeeper, and after determining how to kick in his mind, he started a run-up.

The Welsh fans in the stands slapped their hands rhythmically, shouting: "Bell! Bell! Bell! Bell!"

I’m Gareth Bale. I’m from Nottingham Forest. I played for that championship team for more than ten years. Now please look at the pride of a Nottingham Forest player!

Bell muttered these words in his heart and hit the ball with his foot.

The football swiftly passed the jumping wall and got into the net when goalkeeper Joe Hart did not react at all!

The distance of thirty meters seems to be in the blink of an eye. When the football is already spinning in the net in the goal, the Englishman hasn't even reacted.

The ball is scored like this?

Too easy, too simple, right? !

"Gareth Bell!" In the deafening cheers of the audience, the Welsh TV commentator had to increase the volume of his shouting desperately, so that the Welsh TV audience who were watching the game could experience his excitement. "A beautiful free kick! He shot through England's goal! 1:0! Wales leads England!"

Seeing a free kick into the goal, Bell looked very excited. He desperately tore the shirt on his chest and was soon overwhelmed by the equally excited teammates.

Seeing Bell's free kick into the goal, George Wood leaned back on the seat. He guessed such a result, because the position was so good...

The boss might have guessed it, but he must not want to admit it.

Tony Dunn felt depressed about this goal, not anger, but depressed. He leaned back and scolded a dirty word secretly. The one who scored the goal was Gareth Bale, and he couldn't scold too badly. But for the reality that the team is behind, he is still very upset.

"It's an unexpected match. After being beaten by England for fifty minutes, Wales led the other side! The trend of this match made us think about the match between England and Portugal five days ago! Could it be that England will repeat Portugal? The mistake?"

Gareth Bale finally broke free from the crowd. He reached out to the Welsh fans in the stands, calling on them to continue cheering and cheering for the team. So the shout of "Welsh! Wales!" in the stands became louder.

When he was close to the sideline and ran back to his own half surrounded by his teammates, he passed the coaching bench in England.

Dunn did not look at him, but was gesturing to the English players on the court to signal them to strengthen their attack and not to give Wales a chance to set the ball. He must make some adjustments.

Bell, who was in the crowd, glanced at Dunn. He saw Dun En anxious. What if this game really wins England? Such a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

Bell and Dunn passed by. He and Toshak, who walked to the sideline, gave a high-five, and then ran back to the court.

※※※

The backward England launched a frantic counterattack. In the period when they just lost the ball, they were all over, so that the Welshman could not find a chance to counterattack, and football could not make it through halftime. England showed their strong side, but Wales' defense, despite being embarrassed, did a good job.

Players such as Gerrard and Rooney have repeatedly shot long distances, but they are just squandering opportunities. Under the close interference of the opponent, even if it was Gerrard, his long-range shots lost their accuracy.

Welsh’s defense is tighter and more annoying than England’s defense against Portugal. They don’t want to leave the slightest chance of kicking off to the English, even if they are rolling on the ground, they must let the English players feel theirs when shooting. exist.

Pushing, stumbling, ramming...everything is done, and the purpose is only one-to prevent England from attacking and not let them kick and shoot comfortably.

Dunn then replaced Rooney, who had become uncontrollable because of his repeated mistakes in shooting, and replaced Abang Raho. Let the team reduce the number of long-range shots, and frequent crosses from the two sides, let Mitchell compete for the header.

Helplessly, Mitchell played an effective role in the double-teaming of two strong central defenders, and today's luck is not on England's side at all-Mitchell finally grabbed some points, but slammed his head back. On the beam...

As time passed, England became more impatient. This has been out of Dunn's control. Every English player on the field has only one idea in his mind when he gets the ball-shooting!

As for running position coordination, passing, etc., you have to give in to this idea. So we saw that even central defender Terry rushed forward and took a shot.

Dunn was furious underneath. Such a shot can only increase the opponent's fighting spirit and make England lose confidence in winning.

For this he had to replace Michael Johnson, who had completely lost his direction.

When England still trailed Wales 0:1 in the 87th minute, Dunn considered it for a while and replaced Mitchell with James Vaughan. Without height, the England team can no longer threaten the Welsh goal, and the Welshman can already start celebrating.

On the Welsh bench, the players stood on the sidelines, hugging each other's shoulders, waiting for the final whistle to blow, and rushed into the court to celebrate this remarkable victory.

"It's unbelievable, but this is precisely where football's greatest charm lies. England, which swept Portugal 4:2 in the last game, was at a loss when facing the weakest Wales in the group, with a 0:1 The score is behind. It seems that they are likely to lose to Wales. This should be the biggest upset so far in this cup!"

Bell is no longer involved in the offense. He and his teammates formed a wall in front of the goal, using their bodies to block every attack from England. A white away jersey has long turned grass green, which fully explains how many times he fell on the ground.

The fourth official raised a three-minute stoppage time sign from the sidelines, and the English fans in the stands booed. They could not accept the reality that the powerful and invincible England lost to the weak neighbor Wales...

Which of them can be a reason to defeat us?

"Wales only had one decent attacking opportunity in the whole game. They seized it and now leads 1-0! The proud Tony Dunn also had to lower his head..."

In the TV camera, Dunn just lowered his head, pinched his chin in one hand, and seemed to be pondering-why did the game become like this? An opponent they hadn't paid attention to, instead stepped them underfoot.

With his head down and meditating for a while, Dunn turned and walked to the coaching bench, shrugged to Walker who was looking at him, spread his hands and said, "We lost, Des. The facts once again proved that if you keep walking with your head high, you I'll trip over the stone under my feet. Unfortunately I always forget this..."

Walker was also helpless with this result. He shook his head slightly: "We all underestimate the enemy, it is not your responsibility..."

Behind Dunn, the referee, after looking at the watch three times, finally blew the whistle of the end of the game to the cheers of the Welsh fans!

"The game is over! Wales beat England and scored three points! This rekindled hope for their team to qualify!"

After the game, Bell was excited to find people to hug him, happily like a seventeen or eighteen year old child. This doesn't match the calm temperament he showed in the game.

After he hugged all his teammates, he remembered that he should go and say a few words to the boss. But Tony Dunn is no longer in front of the coach in England.

At this time, Tony Dunn was reviewing his mistakes in front of reporters: "I underestimated the enemy. Wales is a very good team. They have excellent players and coaches. We lost because of this. There is nothing to complain about... …"

A reporter asked: "Mr. Dunn, the loss to Wales has cast a shadow over the team's prospects for qualifying. What are your countermeasures for the last match against Germany?"

"I don't know yet." The reporter asked Dun En's pain point. Originally this game defeated Wales, his team qualified ahead of schedule, the last game can be replaced by the substitute, eliminating the yellow card. Now it seems that the game against the German team should be a battle of life and death...

If the goal is only to qualify for the group, the third group is acceptable. But Dunn's eyes are on the champion. In order to meet a better opponent in the knockout round, England will of course strive to win the group first.

But it's not without a chance. If the German team defeated Portugal in a later game and came out first in a two-game victory, then there should be no reason for them to fight England to the death in the last game, which is good for England.

The reporter still wanted to ask questions, but Dunn, who was in a bad mood, pushed them away and hurried away.

When Bell was looking for Dunn, Wood was watching him from the sidelines. After watching him silently for a while, he also left.

The loss to Wales put a question mark on the qualifying situation of England's group. George Wood has waited for two games. Does the last game make the waiting for these two games meaningless?

On the way to the dressing room, Wood clenched his fists until his knuckles were white.

※※※

Three and a half hours later, Dunn watched another game of the group in the hotel room.

After facing off against Portugal, the German team was defeated by a score of 1:2.

Dunn added 90 minutes of oil to the German, and he couldn't change the score. Seeing the frustrated Germans and the ecstatic grape players on the TV screen, he also pinched his temples in pain, feeling that his head was big.

"This damned group of death..." He slumped on the sofa, cursing weakly. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
