Chapter 41: The championship puzzle that Wenger favored (please read it later)

[PS: Thanks to book friends Wulianghao, Liulangdaoshanghai, zoo_OO, and Liunianfeishui for their rewards]

Duff passed the ball to Lu Kai, and the defenders of Ashuford City rushed towards Lu Kai again, threatening Lu Kai.

As a result, Lu Kai's handling of the situation this time was completely different from before.

He spun 360 degrees on the football, passed the opponent with a beautiful Marseille turn, and then drove straight into the game.

The Dartford trident immediately sprinted towards the penalty area.

As the spear handle, Lu Kai dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, posing a great threat.

"It's over, Dartford's right winger's positioning is too bad!" Croatian football legend Davor Suker shook his head.

To Madera's movement was a complete waste of a man.

Eastwood and Ashley Young were closely watched by the other side.

The one-star, three-arrow, four-fold threat suddenly became the only threat left for Lu Kai, the ball holder.

"Guard him, he has a long shot!" The head coach of Ashford City reminded his players.

The two central defenders were about the same distance from Lu Kai, but the one defending Eastwood did not move, and the player defending Ashley Young gave up Ashley Young and rushed towards Lu Kai.

Because Eastwood is a center forward, he is more threatening.

at this time……

boom!
Lu Kai made a [short knife pass].

"Beautiful!" Wenger said subconsciously.

boom!
The unguarded Ashley Young did not waste the opportunity and scored with a shot from the edge of the small penalty area.

"GOAL! 2-1! Dartford takes the lead!"

"The goal was scored by Ashley Young! A young player who is only fifteen years old!"

"And the one who assisted him was Lu Kai, who was even younger, still over ninety days away from turning fifteen!"

"Ashuford City was defeated by this child-level connection!"

"Lu Kai's pass timing was perfect!"

In the stands, Dartford fans beat drums again.

Jiang Mengyun took the lead and shouted:
"If you don't roar and I don't roar, when will the Green Gun be able to score a goal!"

"If you don't shout and I don't shout, then Nana will be the one to be overturned!"

Arsenal: ???

Wow!
The fans cheered one after another.

Wenger subconsciously hung up the phone and returned to his seat.

This made Sylvinho and others, who had wanted to leave for a long time, very anxious.

Boss, if you don’t leave and he doesn’t leave, when can we relieve ourselves?
In the 43rd minute, the opponent almost equalized the score with a long shot.

Dartford's goalkeeper is really shaky and his ability is too limited.

As the first half was about to end, Ashford City started to attack in a siege.

But at this moment, Dave, Patton, Lu Kai and others looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.

Noon has arrived!

They were like wild horses running away, surrounding and grabbing the ball at the front of their own penalty area.

The opponent was still thinking about how to attack and could not withstand this wave of pressure. His cross pass went wrong and was intercepted by Lu Kai.

The opponent immediately blocked Lu Kai's counterattack.

Lu Kai dribbled the football to the right.

Henry frowned immediately: "He wasted a great opportunity to counterattack, he should have just rushed forward!"

But the next moment, Lu Kai passed the ball directly.

The defender from Ashford City stretched out his foot to block the pass, almost destroying it.

"It's a low pass!" Vieira recognized this type of ball. "The ball is very fast, much faster than a player can dribble forward."

“But the disadvantage is that the arc is too low and it is easy to be blocked in the early stages.”

"If Lu Kai passes the ball directly, it will most likely be blocked by the opponent, so he spikes the ball to create lateral space."

Almost everyone on the Arsenal side instinctively said, "How fast!"

To Madeira raced forward from the right side toward the center, surpassing Ashford City's defenders at a speed visible to the naked eye. This simply defied the mathematical definition of the longest hypotenuse of a triangle.

"This is a super big one-on-one."

"Dartford's right winger is so fast. Are you sure I didn't see Michael Owen?"

"The ball is in!"

"This is a duel without any suspense. To Madera's advantage is simply too great!"

"Three to one! Dartford scores another goal!"

"I have to say that although Ashford City still has the upper hand on the field, Dartford is already far ahead in the score."

"Ashford City must make tactical adjustments during the half-time break. They must convert their players' ability advantages into points. After all, they are an eighth-level team. There is no reason for them to lose to a ninth-level team!"

In the end, the score in the first half was 3 to 1, and Dartford came back from 1 to win.

Players from both sides returned to their respective locker rooms for adjustments.

Only luxurious dressing rooms at the Premier League level can truly help players recover their form or allow the head coach to arrange tactics.

Because it is comfortable and quiet enough.

And there's really no need to stay in the "fitting room" at Dartford Ponds Stadium for fifteen minutes.

Fifteen minutes later, the players from both sides changed sides and continued the game.

Lu Kai noticed that Wenger, who seemed to be about to leave for something, was still sitting on the sidelines.

Apparently, he has backed off from what happened after that.

He will watch the game in its entirety.

"Please keep an eye on the performance of To...To Madeira." Wenger gave instructions to his assistant.

The assistant nodded, then asked, "What about Lu Kai?"

Wenger thought for a moment and shook his head.

There is no need for wealthy clubs to dig for gold in the ninth-tier league. The best things in the garbage dump are not as good as the qualified products of big factories.

The reason for paying attention to To Madera is that this player's speed is so outstanding.

This is the player who really has the potential to make it out of the lower leagues.

He can become a role player and championship puzzle in a high-level team many times more easily than others.

As for Lu Kai...a fish is happiest in a pond. If it really enters the sea, it will be swallowed up.

……

In the second half, Ashford City did make some changes.

They began to take advantage of their players' abilities to create damage on the wing, especially on Ashley Young's side.

The short Ashley Young was unable to provide much defensive support to his left-back teammate behind him.

In the 53rd minute, Ashford City took a free kick from the wing.

The point at the front is deeper.

The opponent's player rushed forward to catch up with the ball and swept it into the penalty area.

Its striker pushed the ball into the net through the crowd.

The score was 2-3 and one goal was recovered.

"Fuck!" Dave felt a little uncomfortable.

Lu Kai also shook his head.

They all knew that the opponent was taking advantage of Duff's slow movement speed.

Even Wenger's assistant was shaking his head on the sidelines. He originally thought that this player's frontal defense was pretty good and was planning to follow up, but now it seems unnecessary.

In the 57th minute, the Ashford City midfielder passed the ball into the penalty area with the outside of his foot.

Its forward's shot went wide.

In the 62nd minute, Lu Kai made a forward run from the left, received the ball, made a Marseille turn to avoid the opponent, and sent a cross.

The opponent's defender headed the ball away first.

In the 64th minute, Eastwood's long shot went wide.
