Chapter 169 Albertazzi's Redemption

 After Leeds City's wild celebrations, the game resumed.

The atmosphere at Ferenc's home ground was a bit dull.

The home team fans also knew exactly what this conceding goal meant.

It can be said that this game will become completely different from the moment the ball is conceded.

Ferenc fans, who were confident before the game, are now worried that their team will not be able to advance to the semi-finals of the Europa League.

Although Ferenc's head coach Federico Broli stood on the sidelines after losing the ball, dumbfounded, his reaction was quite quick.

Not long after the game restarted, Ferenc took the lead in making substitutions.

The forward who was replaced was forward Guviron Risdik. This forward is obedient and hard-working. When the team needs to defend, he is the best choice on the front line.

But if the team needs to attack, Resdick's weak scoring ability makes him a drag on the team.

If he is left on the field, he will not be able to help the team score goals and will have to be replaced.

Coming off the bench was the team's other center, Oliver Hogg.

"Oliver Hogg is a Danish international. He is tall and strong, good at heading the ball, and is a powerful center in the traditional sense. He has better scoring ability than Risdijk. When Ferenc needs to attack, he is the first thing that coach Broly will think of.

He has scored seven goals in Serie A this season and is the top scorer in the Ferenc team..."

Shen Lang introduced the substitution situation to the Chinese fans before the live broadcast.

After hearing this, Xie Lan hummed: "Oh! It turns out that Ferenc also has forwards who can score goals. I thought they all let the central defenders serve as forwards..."

After Hu Lixin heard his wife's ridicule, he laughed. His wife really holds a grudge!

However, he only dared to complain about this in his heart and never dared to say it out loud.

After Xie Lan pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, he said angrily: "But he only scored seven goals and he can be the top scorer in the team. No wonder Ferenc only knows how to defend... He really can't do anything but defend them!"

Hu Lixin wanted to tell her that a forward who could score seven goals in a league that was good at defense was not bad at all. Not everyone was like her son...

However, he still thought about it and did not say it out loud.

He didn't say anything, but his wife came to him: "Hey, Lao Hu. Now that they have a forward who can score goals, does that mean the situation has opened up?"

Hu Lixin nodded: "It should be like this. If Ferenc wants to score and equalize the score, he has to attack. There is no away goal advantage rule in the Europa League, so as long as they can equalize the score, they can also drag the game into a penalty kick.

"

"Then doesn't this mean that our son can score another goal?!" Xie Lan's voice was obviously excited.

Hu Lixin reflexively wanted to refute his wife's idea. How could it be so easy to score a goal? Just score!

But seeing his wife's excited face, Hu Lixin suddenly became alarmed and decided not to pour cold water on his wife now. Otherwise, if his son really failed to score a goal, his wife's anger might be burned on his own head.

But if I follow her words now, when Hu Lai really fails to score, his wife will not have any objections to him, saying that it is all caused by his "crow's mouth"...

Thinking of this, Hu Lixin nodded: "I hope so... It should be like this."

Xie Lan was very happy with her husband's answer, so she read on with interest and expectation.

However, until the end of the first half, the second goal that Xie Lan expected did not come.

Ferenc did not suffer a collapse immediately after losing the ball as she thought.

The reason... Albertazzi's performance was unexpectedly outstanding. After losing the ball... he actually held on!

Although after Hulay scored, there were only about ten minutes left in the first half.

However, Albertazzi still made three effective saves in these ten minutes, successfully preventing Leeds City's attempt to rewrite the score to 2:0 before the end of the first half.

※※※

"Albertazzi is really an excellent goalkeeper. Even if he concedes a goal, it will not diminish his greatness..."

During the halftime break, Shen Lang was also full of praise for Albertazzi's outstanding performance.

Praising your opponent's greatness does not mean belittling yourself. On the contrary, it just illustrates your own greatness.

Because only great opponents are worthy of great players, and winners always complement each other.

Albertazzi is so powerful, but Hulay can still score his goal. Doesn’t that mean that Hulay is even more powerful?

Of course, this is also because Leeds City is now leading, and Shen Lang has the leisure to praise his opponent. Otherwise, he would have frowned and analyzed what Leeds City should do in the second half to conquer the "iceberg".

※※※

In the home team's locker room, head coach Broly did not comfort goalkeeper Albertazzi who lost the ball, but instead praised him.

He never mentioned the goal conceded, and just praised Albertazzi's press conference in the first half, especially his performance in the last ten minutes of the first half.

Albertazzi's performance in those ten minutes is indeed commendable.

He quickly adjusted from the frustration after losing the ball, and faced Leeds City's ferocious offensive, trying to keep the goal clean.

Now the team is only one goal behind, and there is still hope for a comeback at home.

After praising Albertazzi's performance, Broly began to arrange the team's counterattack tactics for the second half.

Albertazzi was lost in thought.

He didn't feel that his performance in the first half was very good, after all, he lost the ball.

Albertazzi believes that even if a goalkeeper makes 99 successful saves throughout the game, if he fails to save the football even once, it is a failure.

So obviously, he has failed.

But at the same time, he also knew very well that he must not fall into this kind of self-pity.

After all, the game is not over yet, and every time he makes a save, he is preserving the hope of a comeback for his team.

At the same time... I am also atonement for myself.

If he can drag the game into a penalty shootout, then he can become the hero who saves the team.

So, cheer up, Mauro!

It is impossible for Hu to score goals in this incredible way again!

He can never take another cent from me!

Albertazzi encouraged himself mentally.

※※※

After a fifteen-minute intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half.

Leeds City continue to attack.

Ferenc tried more counterattacks.

Clark specifically emphasized this point during the halftime break and asked everyone to pay attention to the opponent's counterattack in the second half and not to get carried away.

With Leeds City well prepared, Ferenc didn't get many chances.

The initiative of the game is still in the hands of the visiting team.

Most of the time, it was Leeds City that still besieged Ferenc.

Albertazzi is still one of the protagonists on the field.

Facing various shots from the Leeds City team, he blocked them all and blocked them all.

"Albertazzi's performance is still very stable...it doesn't seem to be affected by the goal conceded in the first half. This is a quality that an excellent goalkeeper must possess!" The commentator of Italian TV naturally praised Albertazzi's performance.

Full of praise.

"If Leeds City thinks they have an opportunity to take advantage and launch a massive attack after taking the lead, I'm afraid Ferenc will get a chance instead..."

In the end, the Italian commentator also encouraged the Ferenc fans in front of the TV to boost their confidence.

After all, after losing the goal, the self-confidence of many Ferenc fans has hit rock bottom.

They really need a confidence boost now.

Even if Albertazzi's performance could not help Ferenc equalize the score, it could at least extend Ferenc's life.

There is still some hope.

※※※

Albertazi soared into the air, but did not touch the football, but he did not panic. Because he knew that if the ball did not touch him, it must not have hit the goal frame!

Sure enough, he turned around and saw the football flying out of the goal frame...

"Hu's long shot... What a pity! It just missed a little!" Matthew Cox regretted the goal.

There were huge exclamations and gasps from the stands of Florence City Stadium.

Hu Lai held his head in his hands and looked very regretful.

After Albertazzi rolled twice on the ground to relieve his strength, he got up from the ground and glanced at Hulay expressionlessly.

Seeing this scene, the Italian commentator said happily: "Albertazzi is still the 'iceberg'! Everything is normal! There is still... thirty-five minutes left for Ferenc! There is still a lot of time, enough for Ferenc

Score a goal! Come on, Ferenc!"

The commentator is not a fan of Ferenc.

But in the European war, as an Italian, he naturally has to support all Italian teams.

Because this is related to national interests.

Seeing Albertazzi's appearance, the Ferenc fans in the stands also cheered.

Xie Lan pointed at the TV and turned to ask her husband: "He didn't save the ball. What are they cheering for?"

"Maybe seeing Albertazzi's expression gave them hope again?"

Hearing this, Xie Lan snorted disdainfully: "Pretend! If you just make some of these all day long to sell characters, you will fall over sooner or later!"

Hu Lixin agreed with his wife's statement from the bottom of his heart this time.

In his opinion, Albertazzi is a very good goalkeeper, but if he is obsessed with that kind of inexplicable personality, his future achievements will be limited. He will still be a top goalkeeper, but it will be difficult to become a historical legend.

.

Because he is not pure enough.

Although the personality will become a kind of golden sign, it will also become a heavy burden, which in turn will crush the person carrying the sign.
