71 The King Returns

Fanny always hovered near Wright because whether it was Barber or Jones, he often had to pass Wright back and forth in the backcourt. Fanny harassed around Wright, which was very effective.

But it is obvious that the task Yang Cheng arranged for him is not just harassment!

Soon, Kaiserslautern steals another forward steal in the midfield. Barack directly sent the ball forward. Van Nie turned his back to Liverpool's goal, saw clearly where the ball came from, turned around and rushed forward, but at this moment, David James, who was attacking, grabbed the ball in time and pressed it firmly under him.

Returning in vain again!

Fanny gritted his teeth in annoyance. He secretly hated himself for not being able to keep up with the team's pace?

Barack, Peron, Desler, Nedved, Denilson, these teammates passed the ball to him again and again. Each pass was won by the Kaiserslautern players through life-like pressing and pinching. It can be said that they were all made with blood and sweat, but every time they came to Fanny, they were completely wasted.

The header was half a beat slower and was always cleared in advance; the straight pass was slower and was always stealed by the opponent in advance, or the counter-offside was slower and was resolved by James; even many passes passed to his feet were stuck in position in advance and destroyed.

The game has been going on for 35 minutes. In addition to the beginning stage, Kaiserslautern has not had the same ball control as Liverpool, but has created opportunities again and again, but it has been wasted by Fanny again and again.

The Dutch was almost so upset that he wanted to commit suicide, but the more he did, the less he could seize the opportunity!

For Fanny, every opportunity is very obvious, and his teammates pass the ball very accurately. What he has to do is to appear where he should appear and complete the last shot, but he is always slow.

After half a year of running-in, Fanny must not say that he is not familiar with his teammates enough, and his teammates have obviously accommodated him several times, but there is still nothing he can do.

"Does this kid really have the instinct of a shooter?" Paul Bayer saw Fanny sprinting again, and shook his head with a wry smile. This was the seventh chance to score.

Yang Cheng also felt a headache, and Fanny's sense of smell was beyond doubt, but the key to the problem was that he seemed a little out of place.

How to say it? He seems to care about his teammates and their passing route. Many times, when he makes moves, he will think about it first and then proceed, which makes the timing slower by a beat and a half.

What's going on?

Yang Cheng couldn't understand it either. He was always wondering. There were many very good opportunities, if it were another striker, he could score, but Fanny always disappointed. Is it really not time to get to know him?

Paul Bayer, who was standing by, saw Yang Cheng's distressed expression, knew his pressure. In this game, Kaiserslautern could be said to be a desperate battle. If he couldn't defeat his opponent and went to Anfield Stadium, it would be even more difficult for Kaiserslautern to defeat Liverpool.

It can be said that Yang Cheng's tactics are right, and the team has indeed created a lot of opportunities. The key is that in the last shot, Fanny's always flaws have been exposed.

"Don't care too much. Scoring goals is a natural thing. As long as we continue to maintain the current situation, it will be a matter of time before we score goals!" Paul Baier comforted his friend.

Yang Cheng knew his kindness in his heart, but smiled bitterly. Neither Liverpool nor Evans were easy-to-eat, and sooner or later they would change their tactics. At that time, the situation in Kaiserslautern would be bad.

But at this moment, a light of inspiration suddenly flashed through Yang Cheng's mind, "Yes, it's natural!"

Paul Baier was startled by Yang Cheng's shouting and thought something had happened.

This guy who suddenly realized something immediately rushed to the sidelines. In a moment, a chance to die on the court was waved by Yang Cheng to the sidelines.

He threw a bottle of water to Fanny from afar. The latter immediately opened it and poured it into a big mouthful. Obviously, he also consumed it very well.

"Do you know what you are doing, Luther?" Yang Cheng suddenly asked seriously.

Fanny knew that he had performed poorly, and could even be said to be very tragic. He shook his head guiltily, but nodded quickly and was at a loss.

"The task I assigned to you before the game is the core of the offensive, that is, everything on the team revolves around you. Whether the teammates behind you pass or otherwise, they must follow your running position. They must cooperate with you, not you cooperate with them!"

Speaking of this, Yang Cheng slapped Fanny's shoulder heavily, "But look at your performance since the beginning, you have been working hard to cooperate with them. Don't you understand. If you continue like this, even if you give you ten or one hundred chances, you still can't score a goal, because you always take the same as others' feelings, which is already slow in itself!"

Fanny was stunned because he found that what Yang Cheng said happened to be his current situation, "Then... what should I do?"

Yang Cheng pointed at Fanny's heart, "Believe in your own feelings. When you find the opponent's defensive loophole, don't pay attention to your teammates around you. You must believe in yourself, drill in the direction of the loophole, and further expand the loophole."

"Luther, you must understand that it is your problem that you cannot find the loophole, but if you find the loophole, your teammates don't pass the ball, that is their responsibility. So what you have to do is to do your own responsibility, find the loophole and exploit it. When your teammates pass the ball, you will score the goal. It's that simple, is it difficult?"

Fanny thought about it and shook his head immediately. It didn't sound difficult.

Yang Cheng patted his shoulder with encouragement, "Go, when you get on the court, believe in your own feelings, don't hesitate, don't think about accommodating others, just follow your own feelings!"

Fanny nodded heavily and returned to the court.

Yang Cheng returned to his position and continued to watch the game leisurely.

Fanny, who returned to the court, made another mistake, which made Yang Cheng almost scold him on the sidelines, but soon, he seemed to correct it.

In the 39th minute, Liverpool's attack had just crossed the midfield and was immediately tackled by Gattuso, who came out of the road. The latter immediately handed the ball to Peron. The Argentine kept pushing the ball directly to the left and gave it to Nedved, who sent it forward and reached Denilsen's feet.

At this time, Jones moved to the left and opened the gap between Wright. Fanny immediately captured this point, remembering Yang Cheng's previous words in his mind, so he tried it and took the initiative to cut into the gap between Wright and Jones.

Denilson always raised his head. When he saw Van Nie leaning over before Wright and standing with Liverpool's defense line, he immediately deceived Jones with a fake move and sent the ball directly to the back of Liverpool's defense line.

What happened next was simple. Fanny's forward shot turned into a successful counter-offside. Wright also reacted very quickly and appeared in the penalty area in time, blocking between Fanny and the goal. However, the Dutch stopped the ball and leaned against Wright with his back, but skillfully drove the ball and turned around, then pulled it to the right, pulled out a position, and shot with his right foot.

The ball was not fast, but the angle was very tricky, almost hitting the right post. Although David James made a save, he could only watch the ball enter the net without any help!

The moment he scored, Fanny was stunned, because when he was volleying, his eyes were always staring at the right post, and the ball seemed to have entered the net as he expected.

All of this seems...too simple!

"Great, you kid is finally willing to score!" Denilson, who assisted, jumped directly to Fanny.

The players of Kaiserslautern rushed up one by one to celebrate with Fanny who scored the goal. On the contrary, Fanny, the goal-scoring hero, stayed there stupidly, and kept repeating the actions of the goal just now, savoring the feeling when he scored the goal just now.

"What? I'm so happy to score?" Barack also asked excitedly, holding Fanny's head.

The Dutch shook his head hard, "No, no, it's just... I feel that it's very different from the goal during training!"

Everyone laughed at the sound of the moment!

"Of course it's different. This is your first professional league goal in your career!" Bellon cursed with a smile.

Fanny also smiled foolishly, turned his head and saw Yang Cheng with a smile on the sidelines.

When the latter saw Fanny coming, he immediately nodded at him with approval, then pointed to his heart, hinting that Fanny must remember the feeling he had just now.

After Van Nie scored, Evans was so angry that he almost went crazy because in his opinion, Liverpool could be said to have an advantage in this game, but he was unable to convert the advantage in controlling the ball into scoring.

Whenever Liverpool finds a loophole in Kaiserslautern and just wants to speed up and change the pace, Kaiserslautern players either foul, rush or press, or join forces to defend, there is always a way to force Liverpool's offense to slow down.

And once you slow down, the opportunity will be fleeting!

"Continuing to control the ball in the middle and back court like this is not a solution, it's too dangerous!" Evans muttered.

Once the ball control in the middle and backcourt is cut off, it will directly counterattack. In addition, Liverpool itself is a team with strong offense and weak defense, and cannot withstand such tossing.

But just as Evans was about to change his tactics, Kaiserslautern scored another goal!

"goallllllllllllll!"

As the commentator on the scene echoed the goal, Van Nie was like a flying Dutchman, gliding out of the penalty area. He was so excited that he almost threw away all his teammates who wanted to celebrate with him, ran directly to the sidelines, found Yang Cheng, and hugged the head coach who had just pointed out and urged him to hold him up in the waist.

For professional player Fanny, Yang Cheng’s weight is nothing, but when all the Kaiserslautern players rushed forward, Yang Cheng became a soft persimmon that could be kneaded and almost collapsed!

"Haha, this is such an interesting goal celebration!" Even the live commentator couldn't help laughing.

The slow-motion replay of Fanny's goal just now appeared on the live TV screen. I saw Peron's accurate long diagonal pass, and directly found Desler on the right. The latter faced Barber, stopped the ball with a quick stop, stopped at the bottom, and shook the opponent and passed it into the penalty area.

Fanny inserted into the back row, overwhelmed Wright and headed the ball from a close range to score.

"This is a very beautiful team-scoring goal. Fanny's final decision was also seen by this Dutch young player's keen sense of shooting. Although he wasted a lot of opportunities in the first 35 minutes, he also had two consecutive opportunities in 5 minutes to help Kaiserslautern achieve a 2:0 lead!"

"Scoring twice, this will be the most memorable game in the Dutch career!"

The Kaiserslautern player, who celebrated the goal, returned to the court and started the game again under the urging of the referee.

Liverpool, who was scored two goals in a row by Van Nicht, finally changed something. Evans no longer dared to take risks and immediately made adjustments. However, Kaiserslautern played a momentum, and Liverpool instantly changed from advantage to disadvantage.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Evans made consecutive substitution adjustments, but Yang Cheng also gave up the tactics of defensive counterattack in the first half and instead attacked Liverpool's defense with more proactive tactics, intending to take advantage of the momentum of Kaiserslautern's two goals in a row to crush his opponent in one fell swoop.

Liverpool is too gentle today, and players focus on delicate styles. This is not good, because each team needs a combination of different types of players, just like Kaiserslautern's team includes both muscular men and strong men like Gattuso, Nedved and Barack, as well as technical players like Denilsen, Desler and Perron, which can achieve the combination of hardness and softness.

Liverpool lacks hardness now. After being scored two goals in a row by Kaiserslautern, his morale was overwhelming and he couldn't get the energy to reverse. In the 52nd minute of the second half, Van Nie knocked back in the penalty area. Nedved, who was inserted in the back row, made a heavy shot at the front of the penalty area, and once again broke through Liverpool's goal, 3:0!

Afterwards, Evans made another adjustment, but they were all based on defense. The wind-chasing boy Michael Irving was unable to get a chance to play. Now he is just a fledgling rookie, and can only sit on the bench and wait patiently for the opportunity.

After defeating Liverpool 3:0, Kaiserslautern has undoubtedly entered the semi-finals of the Winners Cup with one foot. The entire German media began to sweep away the previous doubts and criticisms of Yang Cheng and Kaiserslautern, and changed them to praise, believing that the team showed amazing technical and tactical levels in this game.

But only Grannak continues to be in his column, neither sing praises nor comments, but just a very simple slogan, "Our Caesar is back!"

It seemed to be to reflect Gran Nak's prediction, Yang Chengyue, who returned to the coach's seat of the court, seemed out of control.

The next home game against Udingen, the relegated team last season, was injured and missed in the pre-match training. Desler was rested by Fritz for the sake of protecting the young player, but he still defeated Udingen 3-0 with Fanny's hat trick, ending the decline in the league.

With 5 goals and 1 assist in 2 games, Fanny also made himself the most popular striker in the Bundesliga in recent times with his outstanding performance in the last two games, and Kaiserslautern has become the most powerful contender for the Bundesliga championship again.

After three days of rest, the team went to Liverpool away. At Anfield Stadium, although Yang Cheng's team was scored by Robbie Fowler in the first half, in the 69th minute of the second half, Marshall headed the ball in the penalty area to help Kaiserslautern equalize the score.

In the end, Kaiserslautern escaped from Anfield with a score of 1:1 and defeated Premier League giants Liverpool with a total score of 4:1, and entered the semi-finals of the Winners Cup.

On the second day after Kaiserslautern tied Liverpool away, the semi-finals of the Winners Cup were also newly released.

Although Fiorentina lost to Benfica 0:1 at home, she defeated her opponent 2:0 away in the first round and finally eliminated Benfica with a total score of 2:1 and reached the semi-finals of the Cup of Winners.

Fiorentina's opponent is Barcelona, ​​the super giant in La Liga. This team led by the most powerful top scorer in football today and Brazilian super star Ronaldo first defeated the Swedish team Stockholm aik 3:1 at home, and in the second leg, he tied his opponent 1:1 with Ronaldo's goal and advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 4:2.

Ronaldo scored one goal in each of these two games, continuing his good goal-scoring form in La Liga. Barcelona, ​​who owns this Brazilian super rookie, is also known as the biggest favorite team to win this year's Winners Cup.

After a difficult victory over Liverpool, Kaiserslautern immediately welcomed the defending champion Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain.

The current team of Paris Saint-Germain has experienced the winners' Cup last season. Although the core player Djokav was poached by Inter Milan, there are many main players in the team. For example, Yang Cheng's previous life, La Yi, the player Kaka admires most in his life, is now the soul core of this team.

In addition, this season, Paris Saint-Germain introduced Brazilian star Leonardo from Kashima Antlers in Japan, which is the Brazilian who later served as head coaches of AC Milan and Inter Milan. Now he is the main star of Paris Saint-Germain.

As for the defense line, captain Paul Legon is the defensive core of this team. He is a scavenger-like player with a ruthless and steady defense. He is an excellent defensive star. Moreover, after retiring, this player coached Lyon. From 2002 to 2005, he created Lyon's three consecutive championships and kicked off the seven consecutive championships. He is a very powerful head coach.

It can be said that there are a group of very outstanding players in the Paris Saint-Germain team, but Nicholas Anelka switched to Arsenal during the winter break. Otherwise, the team's forward line would make Yang Cheng even more afraid.

As for the current head coach of Paris Saint-Germain, the legendary goalkeeper of France, Joel Butz, who is a legendary goalkeeper of Platini, is relatively average as head coach. Until 2000, he changed his career to Lyon as a goalkeeper coach, he trained many good players, such as Kupe and Loris, who were trained by him and made rapid progress.
