Kalau scored a long shot through the goal guarded by Winby and also made the score a draw. The Paris fans in the stands gave deafening cheers.

Kalau, who scored the goal, ran to the corner flag area excitedly and greeted the Paris Saint-Germain fans there.

Metz's players surrounded the referee, who believed that Karau's steal was a foul before the goal was scored.

"This should be a foul first, such a goal is invalid!" Proman was very angry.

However, Chu Zhongtian did not defend himself or make excuses. He stood outside the crowd with his head down.

Regardless of whether Crowe's steal was a foul or not, at least he did not perform well before conceding the ball.

He never found a solution, but instead concealed the ball under his feet, allowing the opponent to make a successful counterattack... How fucking!

The TV camera just so happened that Chu Zhongtian was close-up for six seconds. The commentator commented on this: "Chu's goal at the beginning of the game made Metz fans ecstatic, but then Chu was closely guarded by Paris Saint-Germain and could not perform at a normal level. This concealment was caused by his interception in the backcourt... Chu is usually Metz's midfield core, and more than half of Metz's goals have direct or indirect relationship with him. In other words, once he can't perform at a normal level, Metz will not perform at a normal level. Metz's local media gave Chu a nickname - 'Metz', which vividly illustrates the importance of Chu to Metz. If there is a problem with this lung, Metz's team will keep coughing and even be unable to breathe..."

If this French commentator is very familiar with Chinese culture, he can summarize his long speech in just one sentence - "Success is Chu Zhongtian, and failure is Chu Zhongtian."

※※※I saw that the team lost the ball because of Chu Zhongtian, and his personal performance was different. Chu Zuosheng, his wife, and Gao Jie were speechless. Kang Jianbo also scolded the referee for being a black whistle in the Internet cafe: "Damn it! It's obviously a foul, okay? If you don't even swear such an obvious foul, you really deserve to be the 'home'! The French black whistle!"

There were many speeches in the group and in the forum. But no matter how angry the group was, it could not change the reality that Messe lost the goal.

※※Faced with this goal loss, Metz's fans reacted silently. They really had nothing to say, and it was something they had.

Only Emily raised her middle finger down, cursing "foul" and yelling "fuck" in English.

It is really inconsistent for her to do this. If this scene is captured by the TV camera and recognized by someone, the media does not need to know that she ran away from home, and the pure and lovely image her mother has worked hard for her will be ruined... Emily doesn't care about her "personal image" and "fan wishes" at this time. Since she is here to watch a football game, she must fully vent her emotions. If she faces a fierce game in the stands and clamps her legs and acts like a lady, it will be a waste of the money for buying football tickets.

Watching football games frequently is a good way to relieve stress and vent emotions. Unfortunately, this method has been too little in the past two years. Today, in the stands at the Grand Stadium in France, she has to release all the pressure and negative emotions accumulated bit by bit over the past two years.

※※※After the game restarted, Chu Zhongtian still couldn't solve the difficulties he was facing. He could only make some short-range passes, and there was almost no forward threat pass. Because Paris Saint-Germain tasted the sweetness in his defense, he is now doing more energy.

Chu Zhongtian did not rush to pass the ball when he got it, but pushed Mbami with one hand and signaled to the people in front of him to come back a little longer. The distance was too far, and he could not ensure the accuracy of the pass in this situation.

Taking advantage of his distraction, Mbami intercepted the ball. Chu Zhongtian gently rubbed the ball and Mbami kicked him on the ankle!

Chu Zhongtian felt pain at his feet and could not support his body, so he fell to the ground. Mbami quickly jumped out and snatched the ball away.

This time the referee finally blew the whistle and he blew Mbami's foul.

Promón refused to give up and signaled that the referee should give Mbami the foul. Of course, it would be fine if the referee wanted to give a red card.

The referee didn't listen to him, and just finished giving Mbami a verbal warning.

Mbami spread his hands, shrugged and ran away.

Chu Zhongtian rubbed his ankles and climbed up from the ground. The other party's toes kicked the softest ankles, which made him grin in pain. He moved his ankles and found that there was no problem, so he breathed a sigh of relief - if he was kicked, it would be miserable.

Next in the game, Chu Zhongtian found that small moves similar to Mbami's just now were common on him, which seemed to be a targeted tactic specially arranged by Paris Saint-German.

Pushing the thighs, kicking the ankles, sweeping the legs... In comparison, pulling the jersey and pulling the arms is simply a pediatric department in pediatrics.

In short, he is not allowed to take the ball comfortably. In order to achieve the second goal, any means can be used.

Paris Saint-Germain's players have a good grasp of this aspect. Although they are all fouls, they do not take the cards. At most, they are booed by Metz fans for a while and have no losses. The real benefit of destroying Metz's offense.

In the whole first half, except for that goal, Chu Zhongtian played awkwardly. It was difficult for him to hold the ball and could only get the ball as soon as possible. The connection between him and his teammates was cut off by the Paris Saint-Germain defensive players. Occasionally, there was a chance to succeed, but his teammates were not sure... When the game reached the 35th minute, Mbami, who was responsible for defending him in the midfield, neglected that Chu Zhongtian used fake moves to shake it away. This was a rare opportunity!

Mbami, who was shaken away, was anxious and slipped under his feet. It was too late to catch up.

But it doesn't matter, there is another midfielder Doraso... Doraso is still five or six meters away from Chu Zhongtian, and this little space is enough for Chu Zhongtian to pass the ball.

He sent a direct pass and handed it to Ribery.

After Ribery got the ball, he cut inside and broke into the penalty area, and then suddenly shot!

This time the attack was very sudden, and the Paris Saint-Germain's defensive player basically did not react, but Ribery's shot was high... Ribery, who shot high, held his head with both hands, which seemed very regretful.

Chu Zhongtian is also regretting like him - this is an excellent opportunity... but he can't complain that Ribery wasted his opportunities, because first of all, he didn't create several decent opportunities. He didn't do well, so he had no position to blame others.

"Frank Ribery broke through! The shot is high! It's a pity... It's a pity. For Mets, this may be their best offensive opportunity in the first half. Ribery's shot was very decisive, but he didn't control his footwork well." The commentator was also very regretful. "Chu finally got rid of Paris Saint-Germain's defense and completed an organizational offense. It's a pity that Ribery didn't grasp it..."

Ribery turned around and gave Chu Zhongtian a thumbs up, indicating that he had just passed on the beauty.

"From Chu's pass this time, it is increasingly proved that Lakonbu's tactics are correct. Look, I only gave Chu this opportunity to complete a penetrating pass. If I let him go, the score will definitely not be 1:1 now!"

If Chu Zhongtian heard the commentator's praise, he would have to smile bitterly.

※※This offense did not make an invasion, which also took away Metz's good luck. Before the end of the first half, Paris Saint-Germain seized another opportunity, launched an offense, and scored another goal. The score was overtaken!

What made Emily feel a little relieved to the Chinese Chu Zhongtian fans is that this goal lost has nothing to do with Chu Zhongtian.

But Chu Zhongtian on the court was still very disappointed. They had a wonderful start, but none of them had the same wonderful continuation. In the 45 minutes of the first half, they were at a loss by their opponent's highly targeted tactics.

As the commander of the team, this shows his incompetence.

"The first half is over! Paris Saint-Germain stepped back and fought back after falling behind, scoring two goals, overtaking the score! What a wonderful first half!"

Metz fans would not think so... When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, their expressions were dull, and some people were shaking their heads. They were dissatisfied with the team's performance.

Chu Zhongtian walked out with his head down. He heard some booing sounds. He didn't know who sent it, but he always felt that it was booing himself, because in the first half he was very uncomfortable with Paris Saint-Germain's ubiquitous close-fitting pressing and was at a loss.

The team's lead from leading to falling behind in the first half was directly related to his poor performance.

Perhaps because this is the final, the opponent's momentum is beyond his imagination and is several times more difficult than in the league. He admitted that he was not prepared for it.

But what should I do? The opponent's close-fitting press is everywhere, which makes him very uncomfortable. He can't even guarantee the ball to be controlled, let alone organize the offense and master the team's rhythm.

Chu Zhongtian kept lowering his head and walked into the corridor, then into the locker room.

When he stood in front of the cabinet he used and took off the dirty jersey on the ground, he suddenly remembered who the original owner of the cabinet was.

It's ridiculous. Before playing the game, I imagined that Zidane was possessed... How could Zidane be trapped by such an opponent? Although it was the final, it was only the French Cup final. In the future, there are still more advanced and difficult games than this. Are you powerless to do anything? Or from now on, you will never pursue those high-level games and opponents?

This is not right. Of course, it is interesting to play football to fight against strong hostiles. Only by playing at a higher level can you be a professional player.

A French Cup final should not be my Waterloo!

He threw the dirty jersey on the ground and turned around and sat in the position Zidane had done.

Just as he was sitting here reflecting on himself, his teammates walked in one after another. Ribery originally wanted to talk to him, but when he saw Chu Zhongtian's appearance, he was a little afraid to come up and disturb him. He played in the first half very breath, and everyone knew that Chu Zhongtian had a problem, but the problem was that Chu Zhongtian couldn't blame him for this. The opponent's tactics were too powerful. What would he do?

Many people sat in their seats like Chu Zhongtian, lowered their heads and didn't speak. They experienced a first half of great joy and sorrow, and they really didn't know what to say.

Fernandez was the last one to come in, and many people looked up at their head coach. At this time, the person they could trust the most was the head coach, and they needed the head coach to tell them what to do in the second half.

Even Chu Zhongtian raised his head and looked at the head coach. Although Mr. Fernandez once told him to play football with his brain on the court, if the player himself can solve the problem, what else should the head coach do? He is a person in the game and does not have a thorough consideration of the overall game than the head coach on the sidelines. At this time, he is like a lost child and needs the head coach to give advice.

Fernandez happened to take a look at Chu Zhongtian, and the two people's eyes collided in the air.

Fernandez said nothing, and his gaze naturally crossed Chu Zhongtian's face.

Chu Zhongtian also withdrew his gaze.

When Fernandez walked straight to the tactical board, the locker room was completely quiet, and everyone was waiting for him to make a little adjustment to the team.

"The opponents performed better than us in the first half, so they should lead." This is the first sentence Fernandez said. It sounds like a tactful criticism of the team. "First of all, I have to admit that I made a mistake. I didn't expect Paris Saint-Germain would have such tactics. This is not your problem, it is all my responsibility." When he said this, he looked at Chu Zhongtian.

"Next, let's adjust the tactics. Chu."

Hearing his name, Chu Zhongtian stood up and looked at his head coach with anticipation.

"You play as a midfielder in the second half."

This sentence surprised everyone present, including Chu Zhongtian himself.

Although Chu Zhongtian is the core of the team's organization and more than half of the offenses in the team are related to him, he has never played the front midfielder position. He has always been in the back midfielder position, retreating when defending, and intruding forward when attacking, and attacking can attack and retreat or defending. The front midfielder basically does not need to take on defensive tasks, so Fernandez has never let Chu Zhongtian play the front midfielder, but Menez has been a front midfielder several times.

"Your problem is that you are too far from the opponent's penalty area and goal, so the threat will naturally be much smaller. So when you play the front midfielder, you can get closer to the opponent's penalty area. This will enable you to use your ability to pass the threatening ball."

"But sir, I'm going to be the midfielder, who will connect with the team? I'm going to run back..." Chu Zhongtian felt that the problem was still not solved, so he spread his hands and asked.

"Proman is here to help you pass the ball from behind."

Proman pointed at himself in surprise: "But I am a defensive midfielder, sir..."

"People should participate in the offense more in the second half, Promont." Fernandez's answer made everyone vaguely smell something.

Seeing that the head coach was so decisive, there was nothing to say. He also felt that he always shrank in the backcourt so much that he could not help the team solve the problem. The team's current problem is not that the defense is not good, but that the offense is not good, so there is no way to put more pressure on Paris Saint-Germain so that they can attack unscrupulously in Metz's half. I believe that as long as the offensive problem is solved and Metz's offense returns to normal operation, Paris Saint-Germain's offense will naturally be much weaker, and his defensive pressure will not be that heavy at that time.

After saying to Proman, Fernandez turned around and continued to talk about Chu Zhongtian's mission.

"And I noticed that they are getting less and less rude to your defense, with more fouls on small moves. The closer you get to their penalty area, the more chances we get to get set pieces in dangerous positions. I think why can't we take advantage of your header in set pieces?"

Chu Zhongtian understood. When approaching the opponent's penalty area, he could complete the task of organizing the offense with fewer passes, which would avoid blindly entangling with the opponent. At the same time, he could also obtain many threatening set pieces. After scoring a header in the first half, why not score another one? Secondly, as long as he used the set pieces to threaten Paris Saint-Germain's goal a few times, they would naturally reduce their fouls against themselves, and the pressure on themselves would be reduced a lot. He had space for activities. In the position close to the penalty area, the extremely small space for activity may bring big different results.

This adjustment is really wonderful.

He admired his head coach more and more. Playing football under such a head coach is indeed the right choice!

"Okay, I'll listen to you, sir." After thinking about Fernandez's adjustment intention in his mind, Chu Zhongtian knew what to do, and his answers were louder.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished it yet." Fernandez made a gesture of calmness. "When you are closer to the opponent's goal, it means you have more chances to shoot. My advice is - if the time is right, then try long shots."

Chu Zhongtian nodded vigorously. He had no objection to the head coach's arrangement.

Fernandez was very satisfied with Chu Zhongtian's attitude, and then he turned around and said to the players of the team: "I know that the performance in the first half was not your true level, and I also know that you must be very breathless in the first half. But it doesn't matter, all this will be reversed in the second half. We attacked in the second half... I remember I said this before the game, but unfortunately we didn't do it in the first half. We had to attack in the second half, and there was no other way. If you still want the championship, our tactics did not change much, but Chu and Promman in the midfield have adjusted their positions. I hope everyone can adapt to this quickly. Remember this is the final, and there is only 45 minutes left for us. I heard that more than 20,000 fans came from Metz. Do you want them to be disappointed after the game? Our performance has always been very good this season. You are their pride. I hope they can still think so until the end of the game!"

Fernandez rarely says such passionate words, but this time he said it because it was the French Cup final. It is a game that cannot be missed.
Chapter completed!
