Chapter 164 Clark's Tactics Manual

  When they saw Hulay stretching out his kick to pick up the football before Correa could get it, and then turning around, some Manchester Athletic fans on the Internet said unconvinced: "I think this is a subconscious action of his to dodge.

So he was able to successfully bypass Correa entirely because he was lucky!"

Some Leeds City fans immediately responded: "Even if it's good luck, so what? We scored! Your three-pointer flew away, hahaha!"

What this Leeds City fan said makes sense, so the Manchester Athletic fans who complained have nothing to say.

 That's right, regardless of whether Hu Lai's goal was luck or not, the score cannot be changed now.

With five or six minutes left before the end of the game, Manchester Athletic, playing at home, was equalized!

 The three points you got...just turned into one point!

At the shuttle field, the home stadium of Manchester Athletic, after scoring the goal, Hulay turned his head to confirm that the football was indeed in the goal, then turned around and ran towards the corner flag area with his arms spread wide.

“Come on, come on, come on! Hu Lai’s ‘Heaven Comes to Earth’ is coming again! This is the first time this set of moves has appeared on the shuttle field!”

I don’t remember who originally named Hu Lai’s set of celebrations “God descends to earth”, but it soon spread because the description was very apt and very domineering, which fit well with Hu Lai’s set of celebrations.

impression.

Amid Yan Kang's excited shouts, Hu Lai ran to the corner flag, leaped high, turned 180 degrees in the air, waved his hands down, spread his legs and planted firmly on the turf of the stadium, like a god descending to earth!

 Leeds City fans also shouted "HUUUUU!!!", but their voices were completely drowned out by the overwhelming boos at the shuttle field.

But just like the previous two goals, it doesn’t matter if the cheers can’t be sent out, we scored anyway!

 The current Manchester Athletic fans can be said to be very disappointed.

As the runner-up last season, Manchester Athletic's goal this season is to compete for the league championship. As a result, at their home court, they were equalized by the small Leeds City three times despite taking the lead three times!

 After seeing Hulay's goal, Manchester United's head coach, Jairo Gutierrez, stood on the sidelines, looking up and closing his eyes, looking very helpless and painful.

The team conceded three goals in the game, which means there must be a problem defensively, but where exactly did the problem go?

 I won’t talk about the first two balls, let’s talk about the last third ball.

Perhaps Kolarenc should not run back with the opponent's winger Kamara, so that Hulay would have no chance to counter the offside.

But if Kolarenz does not return to defense in time, Williams may not pass the football to Hulay, but will choose to give it to Kamara.

 Can also threaten the goal.

  In fact, in this defense, our own players have done a very good job. Whether it is Hobson who did not raise his hands but followed the defense well, or goalkeeper Correa who struck out in time, they all did a good job.

 Even if there is a slight mistake, it is insignificant.

With so little space left for Hu Lai, it is impossible to create a threat...

Correa strikes very quickly. If it were another striker, even if he shoots hastily, it will most likely hit Correa's body, or it will miss the baseline at all...

Hu Lai chose to overtake the ball!

 And he succeeded!

 Fuck Fuck!

Gutierrez, the Spanish head coach, was so anxious that he uttered an English curse word in his heart.

  ※※※

The excited Leeds City players ran past Correa, and their laughter and screams fully demonstrated the excitement at this moment.

The Portuguese national goalkeeper of Manchester United spread his hands helplessly, opened his mouth and hesitated to speak.

He wanted to explain to his teammates, but he gave up the idea as he spoke. What should he explain at this moment? What is there to explain? No matter what the reason is, it is a fact that he lost the ball.

He really didn’t expect that Hu Lai would choose to throw the ball past him to get rid of him and create a shooting opportunity.

 But this cannot be the reason for him to concede the ball.

 As a goalkeeper, the team's last line of defense, as long as he loses the ball, he has no explanation.

 So he chose to remain silent and just lowered his head again.

At the corner flag area in the distance, Leeds City players surrounded Hulay. They excitedly slapped Hulay on the shoulders, back and head...

 Hu Lai, who scored the goal, was beaten so hard that he could only shrink his neck, looking a little embarrassed and funny.

Looking at this embarrassed and funny figure, Cantero held his head in his hands with a painful expression.

When Hulay scored, he thought for a moment that he was back in last year's Olympics. When Hulay scored the volley to score the winner, he had the same movements and expressions as now.

  It’s simply a nightmare to relive!

 Damn it! This is not the revenge I want!

In front of him, Kabangka quickly ran past, rushed into the penalty area, and then ran straight into the goal. Before anyone else could react, he bent down to pick up the football and held it in his arms.

Then he ran towards the center circle, waving to his stunned teammates and shouting: "The game is not over yet!!"

The game is indeed not over yet. Counting injury time, there are still about eight or nine minutes, maybe even ten minutes.

 This time is not impossible for a goal.

Hulai did not beat Manchester United.

But the problem is that Hulay's goal at this time has greatly boosted Leeds City's fighting spirit and morale, and their on-field performance will definitely be better than before.

Perhaps Manchester United can only place its hope of winning on the lunatic Tony Clark. It is expected that he will look forward to winning after the team equalizes the score. In this way, he will let the team continue to attack in the final period.

, Manchester Athletic can take advantage of the space behind them...

  ※※※

"That's it, Sam." Clark said to assistant coach Randall on the sidelines. "We have done a very good job of drawing with Manchester United in the away game. I am satisfied with the result. Now let the players collect it."

Come back and defend and hold on to this point."

Landhir already knew what Clark was going to do, but he couldn't help but said: "You want to take advantage of people's stereotypes about you again?"

"It's not necessarily taking advantage, because Gutierrez may not be fooled." Clark said with a smile. "But we should really defend. I don't want to be led by the opponent for the fourth time... Then we will turn from heroes to clowns.

"

 “Ouch, you actually know?” After Randall complained, he went to the sidelines to tell the Leeds City players on the court Clark’s latest adjustments through gestures.

His gesture was not the kind of gesture that people could tell at a glance what tactics he wanted to play. Randhir just whistled first to remind everyone to pay attention to him, and then raised a finger.

 There was no wave to the backcourt, no hands down, just a finger raised.

  means:

 One point, the boss said, one point is enough!

 In fact, like other coaches, Randall used simple and easy-to-understand gestures to remind the players on the field whether they should press the offense or withdraw the defense.

 But since Clark started studying "The Art of War", his heart became a lot dirty. So he specially created a set of gestures for Randall to convey his intentions to the players on the court.

 In this way, you can avoid being seen through by your opponents and quickly make targeted adjustments.

In order to let the team members know what each gesture means, he also specially compiled a "tactics manual", which uses diagrams to describe specific gestures with different meanings in detail.

For example, if you shrink your defense after equalizing the score, you would raise one finger, which means "hold this point." But if you shrink your defense after taking the lead, you would raise your middle finger, ring finger, and little finger.

, and at the same time clasp the thumb and index finger into a circle, which looks like an "OK" gesture.

 This means "keep these three points!"

If the team is behind or after equalizing the score, and Clark wants to continue attacking and strive for victory, the gesture becomes curled up with the ring finger and little finger, thumb up, index finger and middle finger, which represent "

I want three points!"

Some people may question how players from far away can clearly see whether your coach is holding up one finger or three fingers on the sideline, or whether he is holding up the first three fingers or the last three.

 It doesn't matter, there are always players who are close to the coaching bench. After seeing it, they will use the same gesture to pass the coach's instructions to their teammates in the distance, just like a beacon delivering messages.

 In addition, there are some combination gestures, such as doing one action first and then another action. Different combinations represent different meanings.

This gave Hu Lai, who was taking time off to study to get his driver's license, a little bit of PTSD, because these combinations of gestures reminded him of the different meanings of the different gestures of the traffic police... He was already suffering from memorizing that one, and now he had to recite one more, for fear of

He had no idea that this was the price he paid for being careless in front of his boss...

But no matter what, after a period of study, Leeds City players have basically mastered these gestures.

 Clark has even considered whether to make dynamic adjustments to his "tactical manual" every once in a while in order to avoid being studied out by his opponents, so as to increase the difficulty of being thoroughly studied by his opponents...

There is currently no evidence to prove how effective this set of "tactical gestures" that Clark came up with can be, but Clark has always believed that this is a "preparedness", and when it works, his early preparations will be valuable.

To put it bluntly, when you hide in the grass on the side of the road for ten hours because of an evil person, but don’t see the person passing by, it doesn’t mean that these ten hours are meaningless and unnecessary. Because maybe in ten

In half an hour, your enemy came from a distance, eating hot pot and singing songs?

 Those who are evil must be patient enough.

 Conspirator (cross out)

 The tactician must have enough patience.

  ※※※

Atletico Manchester really hopes that Leeds City will continue to attack after equalizing the score, so that they can use the space behind the opponent to threaten Leeds City's goal.

But Leeds City retreated sharply, like an ebbing tide, and ran away completely. Then they closed the door tightly, leaving the empty and clean space in front to the bewildered Manchester Athletic players.

Atletico Manchester quickly pressed on and came out with all their strength, but failed to score as expected.

 Until the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, they were unable to score another goal at home to win the game!

"The game is over!! Leeds City tied with the powerful Manchester Athletic 3:3 after a tough game away from home! This direct dialogue between the second and third place in the league ended in a deadlock, but for Leeds

For the city, a deadlock is probably the best result! The two sides are still only one point apart!"

Because in the first game of this round, Tramed lost to Boscombe 0:1 away from home. Therefore, even if the game between Leeds City and Manchester Athletic is tied, the league rankings of the two teams will be the same.

There has been no change, with Manchester United still ranked second and Leeds City third.

Stan Park Rangers, who are number one in the league, defeated Holt 2:1 in an away game and led the standings with 31 points. While Manchester Athletic and Leeds City were competing against each other, they widened the gap between the two teams.

Points difference.

This is not good news for Manchester Athletic, but Leeds City doesn't care at all. After all, their goal this season is to avoid relegation, and they are not planning to compete for the championship like Manchester United. So they are far away from the first place in the league.

Well, as long as we can successfully avoid relegation!

 Judging from the current performance of the team, there should be no great suspense about their success in relegation this season...
