It is known that many football players like to play golf.
For example, Sudong's idol Ronaldo, football champion Maradona, England's King Beckham, Kahn, his teammate at Bayern, as well as the legendary Dutch center Van Basten, Real Madrid player Guti and so on.
Among them, Ronaldo plays golf the best.
It can be seen that the Brazilian genius is very powerful whether he uses his feet or his hands.
Once, he told Su Dong a very interesting thing while chatting.
He said that there is a saying in the golf circle: If you want to beat your opponent, praise him before teeing off. Praise him hard. If you don't praise him for anything else, just praise him for the distance of his tee shot.
There is no doubt that Su Dong focused everything on football. He didn't even understand the rules of golf, so naturally he didn't understand what this meant.
Ronaldo explained with a smile, "When you praise him for his long kick-off distance, he may appear calm and calm on the surface, but deep down there will be a commotion. When he kicks off, he will subconsciously think about it.
He is trying to hit the ball farther, which will cause him to lose his concentration when playing, which will lead to a deviation in the direction of the ball."
The Brazilian smiles like a fool, and he says that this trick has worked for him time and time again.
This made Su Dong determined not to learn to play golf from the Brazilians in the future.
But this interesting conversation also left a very deep impression on him and reminded him of football.
That was the war of words before the game.
Many times, the head coach praises his opponent fiercely before the game. In fact, he wants to paralyze the opponent and make mistakes during the game. This has been a tried and tested method in world football, and the best one is Ferguson.
Just like Ronaldo said, the purpose of the war of words is to distract the players and prevent them from staying focused.
There is another situation that can cause players to lose focus, and that is the trend in the game.
Just like this game when Manchester City visited Anfield.
From the beginning to the end, Liverpool always maintained absolute concentration, defended very well, and did not even make any major mistakes. Even Daniel Agger and Skrtel restricted Su Dong.
This kept the game at a score of zero to zero.
But as the game approached, and after more than 80 minutes of solid defense, they began to have some new ideas.
After all, it was a home game, and they were somewhat dissatisfied with the score of zero to zero.
Liverpool's ranking is not high now. If they can win Manchester City at home, it will undoubtedly lay a very solid foundation for them to break into the top four in the league. Moreover, they are playing at home, so they will not stick to the score of zero to zero in the end.
Bar?
Besides, Manchester City has been attacking for more than 80 minutes and has not yet scored Liverpool's goal. What does this mean?
There are only a few minutes left in the game. It shouldn't be too much to work harder and score a goal, right?
As a result, players in the Liverpool team began to try to counterattack.
If a few players want to counterattack, the rest of the team will naturally follow suit.
As Ronaldo said, when a person has other unnecessary thoughts in his mind, it is difficult to stay focused.
By the same token, when Liverpool's players started thinking about counterattacks and scoring goals, it was impossible for their defense to focus, so at the last moment of the game, the first major mistake of the game finally occurred.
That was in the second minute of stoppage time. Liverpool seized the opportunity to steal the ball and launched a quick counterattack. However, when they reached the edge of Manchester City's penalty area, Pepe successfully intercepted the ball and launched a long pass on the spot to launch a counterattack.
At this time, Liverpool's defense was pushed a little too far forward, resulting in a gap behind them.
Su Dong, Daniel Agger and Skrtel chased the ball at the same time.
First, Daniel Agger judged the landing point of the ball and when he wanted to control it, Su Dong came from behind, caught up and directly knocked Daniel Agger away with his body, and stopped the ball first.
Agger was directly hit by Su Dong and was unable to stop his momentum. He ran forward and lost the best defensive position, but Skrtel made up for it immediately and quickly got close to Su Dong.
After Su Dong knocked away Daniel Agger, he immediately stopped the ball and turned around to block Skrtel. His back blocked the Liverpool central defender, forcing Skrtel to step back.
A small step.
It was this small step that allowed Su Dong to seize the opportunity, stop the ball, turn around, and shoot with his left foot without even looking at the penalty area.
This shot was more than twenty meters away from the goal.
Spanish goalkeeper Reina made a long pass from Manchester City and when Su Dong counterattacked, he stood relatively outside, ready to attack at any time.
When Su Dong squeezed away Agger and backed Skrtel, Reina did not retreat for fear that the two central defenders would be passed by Su Dong. Moreover, Su Dong also had his back to the direction of attack and the distance was too far.
So he felt more at ease.
Unexpectedly, Su Dong suddenly turned around after stopping the ball and kicked off without hesitation. It felt as if he had eyes on the back of his head and could see Reina's position clearly.
After seeing Su Dong take a kick, Reina immediately judged the situation of the ball and immediately stepped back.
Su Dong's shot came very quickly, and his famous stunt is this sudden heavy bombardment of the goal. Therefore, when Reina had no retreat, he could only take off and try to stop the ball as much as possible.
But his hand was still lower.
The football passed his hands, passed under the goal crossbar like lightning, and went into the upper right corner of the goal.
Dead end!!!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!"
After Su Dong completed the shot, he opened his hands and let out an angry roar. He didn't even want to run out to celebrate, but celebrated directly on the sidelines.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Finally, Su Dong raised his head and looked at the dazzling light, and his whole person felt like he was in a good mood.
This game is too difficult!
Manchester City's players also chased after him crazily, surrounding him, celebrating the winning goal at the last moment of the game.
"Su Dong, still Su Dong!"
"Every time Manchester City reaches a critical moment, it is Su Dong who steps forward and saves the team with his goals and performance."
"People are always commenting on who is the core player and who is indispensable, but we can only say that look at Manchester City's Sudong. He is the real core and truly indispensable."
"In the 92nd minute, Manchester City used Su Dong's kick to break Liverpool's goal."
Dalglish was furious on the sidelines.
He had just repeatedly reminded the players to pay attention to the back, especially to the defense, to pay close attention to the position, but the result? Still blindly pressing forward, or exposing the gap behind him.
In addition to Su Dong being too strong, part of the reason why this goal was conceded was that Liverpool's defense was too high up, which gave Manchester City a chance to counterattack. Only then could Su Dong kill Daniel Agger and Scott one by one.
you.
If it had been in the previous 80 minutes, it would have been difficult for Su Dong to get such an opportunity.
"Dalglish has enough reasons to be dissatisfied with this result, but he has to accept it, because Liverpool did not play focused enough in the last few minutes of the game, and they paid the heaviest price for it, letting the first 90 minutes go by.
All my efforts and perseverance were completely in vain.”
"This is how cruel football is!"
"In a ninety-minute game, you must remain absolutely focused from beginning to end and cannot slack off in the slightest, otherwise the fate that awaits you will be defeat."
"Of course, Manchester City fans should be more grateful to their star player Su Dong. Without Su Dong's amazing performance, it would be difficult for Manchester City to leave Anfield with three points tonight."
"Su Dong saved Manchester City's three points and also preserved Manchester City's thirteen consecutive wins so far."
…………
…………
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the scene was filled with cheers from Liverpool fans and the song "You'll Never Walk Alone". This was a gift from Anfield fans to the home team players.
Regardless of victory or defeat, they will never walk alone.
Su Dong actually likes this kind of club culture, it is really charming, so he respects Liverpool.
Su Dong also showed respect for the Liverpool players.
Daniel Agger and Skrtel performed very well this season. The two central defenders teamed up and even almost froze Sudong. However, at the last moment of the game, due to the pressure of the defense line, they had a defensive problem.
Mistakes.
But overall, their performance is remarkable.
The double defensive midfielder pair of Lucas and Charlie Adam also performed very well.
Manchester City's ball possession rate in this game is more than 70%, but it is difficult for the entire midfield to have a chance to pass the ball forward. The reason is that Liverpool's double midfielders performed too well, blocking Manchester City from passing the ball forward.
channel.
Therefore, Lucas was elected as the best player of the match.
Su Dong was never stingy in giving praise and affirmation to his opponents, so after the game he walked up to the Liverpool players one by one, especially the players he admired the most, shaking hands and hugging them one by one.
On the contrary, Jordan Henderson, the local midfielder who was once appointed by Guardiola, performed very sluggishly in this game and barely created any threat, which was disappointing.
This also reflects the bottleneck of local players in England from another perspective.
The first person to take the initiative to exchange jerseys with Su Dong was the Uruguayan forward, the biting Luis Suarez.
Liverpool's offense is very poor, but Suarez is an exception. He is very capable and performs well, but he is dragged down by the team. If he is paired with a good enough partner, I believe his performance will improve by leaps and bounds.
Suarez, on the other hand, was full of praise for Su Dong's last-minute world-beating kick. He was able to quickly come back in the final stage and use his body to knock away Daniel Agger and Skrtel, and then did not look back.
Under such circumstances, Suarez asked himself that he could not achieve this ability by turning around and unleashing a world wave.
But because of this, he admired Su Dong even more.
"Work hard! Trust me, you can do better!"
When exchanging jerseys, Su Dong patted Suarez on the shoulder and encouraged him.
