Chapter 238 Pure-blood striker! Sideways barb! Evelin has a news headline!
At this moment, the right midfielder of the Liverpool U18 team has been passed by Gu Ran ruthlessly at the speed of the Wind Zhizhi, while the Liverpool right back is struggling to rush up to confront him.
Two other Liverpool U18 midfielders rushed from the center to intercept.
There are three players behind Gu Ran who are chasing hard - the circle of Liverpool U18 is closing in quickly.
The other Liverpool U18 players immediately retreated to the penalty area to set up defense.
It can be said that the entire Liverpool U18 team is doing its best to defend Gu Ran.
At this time, you should look for opportunities to cut in and penetrate the encirclement.
However, Liverpool U18's defense was very solid, and almost all of Gu Ran's cutting routes were blocked.
Even if you can force the diagonal penetration with your physical strength, you will immediately encounter the second line of defense of Liverpool U18.
And once it is blocked by the second line of defense, even if it is blocked for a second, the first line of defense will re-engage and form a new encirclement.
The defense of the Liverpool U18 team is three-dimensional.
Without absolute certainty, it is not wise to forcefully attack.
What's more, Liverpool U18 is already on high alert.
Although his teammates were also desperately supporting him, trying to provide Gu Ran with tactical support, their running speed could not keep up with Gu Ran's sprint speed.
If you stand still and wait for their support, this quick attack will only turn into a protracted positional battle.
The advantage of Liverpool U18 is their solid team defense. If they play a positional battle, Southampton U18 has no chance of winning.
This wave of duels also gave Gu Ran a deep understanding of the intensity of professional-level competition.
In the future, in the English League One, the defenses we encounter will only be stronger and even more brutal.
Therefore, this friendly match can be regarded as an early adaptation for Gu Ran.
If he faced an amateur team, Gu Ran could naturally go right in and slaughter them without saying a word. But now he was facing the Liverpool U18 team. Gu Ran, the grassroots king, was indeed not strong enough to crush the professional youth training team.
.
Faced with such a targeted defense, Gu Ran had no better strategy at the first time.
But no matter what, you must not be trapped by the opponent first.
If there is no chance, you have to create opportunities through running and pulling!
If you can't insert it hard, then lower it first!
Gu Ran made a quick turn with Cristiano Ronaldo and decisively dribbled the ball towards the end line.
In the direction of the end line, there is only one right back, which is very easy to deal with 1v1.
The right back was immediately surprised. He thought he was just assisting in defense, but he didn't expect to become the main defensive force.
…Great! This is a moment to prove yourself!
Liverpool's senior management is watching helplessly from the stands!
Three high-definition cameras stand on the sidelines!
The beautiful landlady Linda will see my wonderful performance!!!
——The right back came forward extremely excitedly and stretched out his arm in advance, trying to pull Gu Ran.
As long as Gu Ran can be held, even if it only holds Gu Ran for two seconds, his teammates will be able to rush forward to fill the position in time!
After guarding Southampton's star of hope, am I now Liverpool's star of hope?
Before the right back, whose name was unknown, could finish his mental activity, Gu Ran stepped on his bicycle and rushed past him easily.
The right back only felt a strong wind blowing by, and then...only three letters remained in his mind:
wtf?!
Gu Ran's bicycle riding speed is extremely fast, full of the beauty of violent aesthetics.
After the bicycle passed the right back, Gu Ran made another silky line change and rushed to the end line in the blink of an eye.
The carefully constructed defense of the Liverpool U18 team suddenly fell into chaos!
The Liverpool executives in the stands also gasped!
From a defensive perspective, Liverpool U18's defense was almost watertight, and Gu Ran did not have a good passing opportunity. There was a high probability that the two teams would engage in a positional battle.
but……
Southampton's star of hope is really playing football with his brain!
Just this accelerated breakthrough disrupted the entire defensive arrangement of the Liverpool U18 team!
Gu Ran's playing style is obviously not from a professional background, but precisely because of this, his creativity has no limit!
Now, judging from the situation, Gu Ran has bypassed the Liverpool U18 defense line and can insert into the goal area close to the end line at any time!
This is a very deadly threat!
Coach Mark stood in the technical area and roared loudly, "Quick, quick, block him! Block him!"
There was chaos in front of Liverpool U18's left goal. The goalkeeper, defenders, and midfielders were all blocked there.
Liverpool U18's defense was also flattened from a three-dimensional to a two-dimensional plane by Gu Ran!
etc……
Coach Mark suddenly frowned.
He has begun to realize that something is wrong!
Before Coach Mark could remind the players on the field, Gu Ran suddenly stopped and turned around to control the ball. Then he made a rainbow pick and hit the ball to the top of the arc in the penalty area!
Inverted triangle pass!!!
The entire Liverpool U18 team was numb from head to toe in an instant! The blood in their bodies was cold!
Just now, in order to block Gu Ran, the Liverpool U18 team almost all crowded near the left goal, and the middle was completely empty!
It's terrible!
The players of the Liverpool U18 team rushed out to defend in a panic——
They were like a group of monkeys, being played back and forth by Gu Ran!
Everyone is extremely embarrassed!
At this moment, the Southampton U18 team's offense is already in place!
The core number 10 of the Southampton U18 team quickly reached the top of the penalty area, raised his left leg high to remove the ball, and then used his right leg to hit the goal!
This shot is very sexy!
This kick is not sloppy, it is very powerful, and the angle is also good!
The football passed through two Liverpool U18 players who were panicking and stretched out their feet to intercept, and roared towards the lower left corner of the goal——
The Liverpool U18 goalkeeper immediately jumped up, stretched his arms to the limit of his body, and blocked the ball with both palms regardless of his own safety!
This ball is too powerful and too fast, and the ball is covered with water and very slippery. It is amazing that the goalkeeper can make an accurate save response in such a short period of time. It is fundamental to catch the ball.
Impossible things.
The goalkeeper's closing performance can be rated at least 9 points.
Southampton U18's No. 10 shot beautifully, and Liverpool U18's goalkeeper blocked it beautifully!
The Liverpool U18 defensive players immediately breathed a sigh of relief——
But, immediately afterwards, they fell into a more fatal suffocation!
This ball isn’t dead yet…
The football flew towards the left end line of the small penalty area at an extremely fast speed!
The football was about to go out of bounds, but with lightning speed and ghostly movement, a black-haired figure circled in from the outside of the end line!
It’s Gu Ran! Southampton’s star of hope!
Liverpool U18 racked their brains and tried their best to defend and block him, but in the end, Gu Ran was allowed to step in! Come in! Come on!
At this moment, time seemed to stand still!
All the Liverpool U18 players in the penalty area are full of despair...
If you want to stop Gu Ran, it's too late!
They could only pray that Gu Ran would not be able to stop the ball and score it...
This ball is indeed extremely difficult.
The ball's missile was irregular and too close to the end line, almost at an angle of zero degrees.
The position where Gu Ran crossed was also opposite to the trajectory of the football missile, which was very awkward.
The opportunity is gone in an instant!
Gu Ran jumped directly into the air, opened his body, and at an almost zero-degree angle, used his inverted left foot to do a sideways barb——
The whole audience was suffocated!
With everyone watching, the football flew past the reach of the Liverpool U18 goalkeeper's whip and flew into the net...
The ball went in!
2:2!
When the first half of the game was about to end, left back No. 9 Gu Ran used an unconventional shooting action, volleyed and hooked from zero angle, and succeeded in the follow-up shot!
This goal was incredible and wonderful!
This is the equalizer goal and Gu Ran's second goal within 15 minutes after coming on the field!
The whole Southampton U18 team was excited! The players on the field ran to Gu Ran excitedly, hugged and celebrated!
Everyone in the Liverpool U18 team is confused!
What is this!
From the time the goalkeeper saved the ball to Gu Ran's follow-up shot, it didn't even take a second!
Who can react to this?!
This is simply a nerve knife!
And it’s the reverse foot! Sideways barb!
As a left back, do you have such a good sense of goal? Do you want to be so good at shooting?
——Not to mention these Liverpool players were confused, even Gu Ran himself couldn't believe it.
This goal actually went in?
To be honest, my brain didn't even respond to the kick just now. My motor nerves just instinctively raised my foot sideways and hooked it. I didn't expect that this damn thing could go in!
The condition is so good hahahaha!
The hard training during this period of time really paid off handsomely!
Of course, this ball also has the effect of stopping the ball sideways 2 and the review-style celebration action 1.
Although the review-style celebration is ugly, the superimposed buff can improve the accuracy and excitement of the shot!
Hit rate is a good thing!
There are not many ways to improve the hit rate in this system. In addition to improving the personal rating to improve the hit rate, there are few skills that can improve the hit rate.
And "Preview Celebration" is a relatively rare buff skill that can temporarily increase the hit rate!
Gu Ran couldn't help but think: If the hit rate could be increased to 99%, would he be able to score a goal even if he closed his eyes and shot with his crotch?
Of course, the hit rate cannot be increased to 99%. Even if it is upgraded to an SSR rating, the hit rate cannot be that high.
For example, Alan Shearer has scored a total of 379 goals in his career, including 260 in the Premier League. With such efficient and high-hitting goals, Alan Shearer's goal rate is only about 45%——
And this is already the ceiling for top shooters' shooting percentages.
The hit rate is not about shooting 100 goals and only scoring 45 goals, but when shooting 1 ball, there is a 45% chance of scoring.
When the hit rate is not high, in addition to serious training to improve the basics, golfers also need to make up for the natural lack of increased hit rate.
The so-called high goal quotient is to shoot when you are absolutely sure and don't waste opportunities easily.
It is precisely because of this that this star-level on-the-spot buff celebration becomes necessary.
You need to use this kind of buff skill a lot!
This game can be superimposed twice!
So what are you waiting for?
Aribati raise your hands!
Gu Ran immediately shook off his teammates who rushed to hug him, raised his right arm excitedly, and ran into the wind!
Compared with last time, Gu Ran was really happy this time, instead of just reviewing!
At this moment, Gu Ran seemed to be possessed by Alan Shearer!
Seeing Gu Ran's celebration, Alan Shearer's passion on the bench was ignited again!
Alan Shearer excitedly came up to pat Gu Ran on the shoulder! Just like he did during the last celebration!
Gu Ran sped up, passed the visiting team's bench with his hands raised in an inspection manner, and ran towards the left wing area where he was——
Alan Shearer, who was waiting for a pat on the back, was dumbfounded...
Coach Dodd, who was waiting to give Gu Ran a high-five, was dumbfounded...
The substitute players who were waiting to share the joy of equalizing with Gu Ran were also dumbfounded...
Only the female reporter Evelin said excitedly: "I understand! I understand! Gu must still be dissatisfied with the current score of 2:2. What he wants is to turn defeat into victory! Ah! Gu, a real man! Every second counts!"
"So that's it!" Alan Shearer suddenly realized.
Coach Dodd also praised: "Gu is so dedicated! All Southampton U18 players should learn from Gu's fighting spirit of fighting against every second!"
"Yes! Coach!" All the Southampton players on the bench shouted in unison.
Kawai Yuichi clenched his fists, with a look of jealousy on his face, and muttered in a low voice: "Baga, every second counts, you are clearly premeditated to show off in front of everyone..."
Suzuki Honami, who was standing on the sidelines, whispered happily: "As expected, it's Gu Ranjun. I knew he would definitely be able to shoot it in... Gu Ranjun didn't go to the bench to celebrate this time, obviously just to avoid that annoying Yangma.
Female reporter...well, it must be. For this reason, I must treat him well tonight..."
But at this moment, Gu Ran raised his hands and ran while shouting secretly: Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles! My happy boy Sterling’s bubbles!!!
...Fortunately, it’s too late!
The bubbles haven’t gone away yet!
After seeing the bubbles, Gu Ran immediately gathered his thoughts and swept away:
Speed : Son of the Wind 1.
Hahaha! The second brush is here!
Sterling is really a boy who can bring happiness to his opponents!
This wave is great!
Gu Ran quickly collected this skill from the air.
The familiar lightning sensation once again spread to the nerves throughout the body, and the peak feeling of pleasure lasted for a full three seconds.
Son of the Wind 2 is out!
With this kind of skill speed, coupled with his original sprint speed, he should be able to eat Sterling alive!
There is one last chance to pick up today!
beep--
With the referee's long whistle, the first half of the game came to an end.
Players from both sides left the field to rest.
The players of the Southampton U18 team high-fived each other to encourage each other, while the players of the Liverpool U18 team looked depressed and did not speak to each other.
To be honest, the performance of the Liverpool U18 team in the first half was very good, especially in the first 30 minutes, they really showed the characteristics of a wealthy club.
However, after Gu Ran appeared, the situation was different.
Liverpool U18 can use their strong defensive counterattack ability to crush Southampton U18, but they cannot cope with the Southampton U18 team equipped with Gu Ran.
Southampton U18 with Gu Ran and Southampton U18 without Gu Ran are two completely different teams.
It is precisely because Gu Ran is too strong that the Liverpool U18 team appears to be in a sorry state.
There is only one attacking point for Liverpool U18, and that is Sterling.
And Gu Ran can not only create his own opportunities to break through and shoot, but he can also prevent Sterling from losing his temper.
If the Liverpool U18 team wants to improve in the second half, it depends on whether Sterling can get past Gu Ran.
This is very difficult - Coach Mark frowned, completely losing his complacent look in the first 30 minutes of the first half.
When Gu Ran walked off the green field, "Son of God" Sterling couldn't help but glance at Gu Ran.
Gu Ran felt Sterling's gaze, and then raised his chin happily and smiled at Sterling.
...I had two prostitutes for nothing, and I just smiled at them in a friendly way. Isn’t that too much for me?
Gu Ran smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.
Sterling quickly withdrew his eyes and became even more unhappy.
Since neither side can use the locker rooms of the first team and the reserve team, players from both sides rest on their respective benches and stands after coming off the field.
As soon as the players left the field, Liverpool's ground maintenance staff rushed to the pitch with tools and took the time to clean up the water on the turf.
As soon as Gu Ran sat back on the bench, before he could shake hands with the players around him, his dedicated team doctor Mai Fu and physical therapist Gregory ran over eagerly to fend off the others.
"Give me! Give me everything! Leave Gu Ran to us!"
"Now is the time for examination and physiotherapy, no one should interrupt our work!"
Maeve and Gregory seemed to be coy and arrogant - that was their prerogative.
Other Southampton U18 players could only avoid it.
Even Alan Shearer who wanted to communicate with Gu Ran was blocked.
Gu Ran suddenly felt dumbfounded.
It’s not me who wants to act big, it’s the staff around me who want to act big…
However, Maeve and Gregory's work attitude is still extremely serious and dedicated.
Maiv carefully checked where Gu Ran might be injured, and after making sure there were no problems, he handed Gu Ran over to Gregory.
Under limited conditions, Gregory massaged Gu Ran's legs to relax them and relieve the accumulation of acidity.
This is exactly what Gu Ran wants most.
Although he only played for 15 minutes, the intensity of the confrontation and sprint consumption during these 15 minutes were equivalent to fighting against the amateur school team for 45 minutes!
Fortunately, Gu Ran's physical fitness and physique have improved a lot than before, otherwise, he may not be able to play the entire game with such intensity.
Professional competitions are indeed not comparable to amateur school team competitions.
Under Gregory's professional massage therapy, Gu Ran's physical strength recovered a lot, and the pain in his legs was almost gone.
Gu Ran took the opportunity to close his eyes and rest half-ly on the bench.
Alan Shearer stood aside and looked at Gu Ran, his eyes filled with the shadow of his youth.
Alan Shearer wanted to wait until Gu Ran finished his physiotherapy before communicating with Gu Ran - although the way he communicated was to pat his back hard, he felt that he used his classic goals to score two goals against Gu Ran.
To celebrate, he had to express his appreciation for Gu Ran.
And Evelin would not let him go so easily.
——Whether you can let Gu Ran come to the house to ride horses this week depends on your performance this time.
Evelin held up the microphone and asked: "Mr. Shearer, Gu Ran scored two goals in 15 minutes of playing. As the top scorer in the Premier League, what do you want to say?"
During the interview, Hiller's face was full of embarrassment. He held it in for a long time before he finally managed to say, "...Gu, very, very, very, very good!"
Gu Ran, who was lying on the bench, couldn't help but want to laugh.
This time it is really difficult for Premier League top scorer Alan Shearer...but this is better than being pestered by Evelyn for an interview.
How should I put it, if you die of Alan Shearer, you will not die of poverty.
Just listen to Evelin continue to ask: "So Mr. Shearer, how do you evaluate Gu Ran's first goal? And his celebration after scoring?"
Shearer stumbled and said: "Gu's first goal was very beautiful, and his goal celebration was very handsome."
——His answer is indeed featureless, and it is difficult to make big news.
Evelyn asked: "How does it compare to your previous goals and celebrations?"
Hiller replied confidently: "Just as beautiful, just as handsome."
Evelin smiled and nodded, "So, how do you evaluate Gu Ran's second goal?"
Alan Shearer thought for a moment and said: "I think Gu's second goal is actually more beautiful than his first goal."
Evelin’s eyes lit up slightly!
She pestered Alan Shearer with so many questions, and it was the first time that Alan Shearer spoke without stammering!
It seems that the question has reached an area where Alan Shearer is good at?
Evelin immediately said in an encouraging tone: "Mr. Hiller, please elaborate."
Alan Shearer was silent for a long time, and until Evelin was about to give up, Alan Shearer finally spoke clumsily:
"I liked Gu's first ball very much. I'm not bragging. His first ball really had my style, and in terms of power, angle, timing, and kicking distance, this ball reached the level of Puss.
The selection criteria for the best goal of the Cash Award."
"But...if I had to choose which goal I like more, I would choose Gu's second goal."
"His second goal, the bloodline is more pure."
"I don't know if you can understand this... Let's put it this way, it's not just the forwards who can shoot long distances, midfielders can also do it, defenders can do it too, and even some goalkeepers can do it."
"Those who can seize the opportunity in front of the goal in an instant are the true pure-blood forwards."
"Gu's second goal was scored under extreme conditions, when it was almost impossible to stop the ball and hit the goal from zero angle, without thinking at all, relying solely on muscle memory and neural reactions.
Sideways overhead kick."
"He didn't deliberately kick the hook just to make the ball exciting. It was impossible for him to prepare for the hook in such a short period of time. He did it purely out of instinct for shooting."
"Such a goal is the goal that most tests a forward's talent."
"Gu, you are so spiritual."
"He shouldn't play as a full-back, he should play as a forward."
Alan Shearer couldn't help but admired: "I have scored so many goals in the Premier League, but most of them are long-range shots. I have scored too few goals with such aura as Gu's. In terms of aura,
, I really don’t care..."
Evelin quickly wrote down a news headline in her notebook: "Alan Shearer personally admitted that he is not as good as Gu Ran in that respect."
