Chapter 175 The Former Captain

After scoring the goal, Hoffenheim's morale was greatly boosted, and they wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and drive the opponent into the abyss of collapse in one go.Players run more actively on the field, and everyone can't wait for their hands to become feet, so that they can run faster and cover a larger area.Even the full-back Baker often pressed near the center line, completely treating himself as a full-back.

This is a rare situation.You must know that Baker is a full-back who is weaker in offense than defense. This does not mean that his offensive ability is not strong, but that he believes that a defender should do a good job in defense, so he is not very keen on offense.This is also the reason why many people criticize him for being too conservative.But this game against his old club, Baker was particularly excited.Sometimes they simply stay in the frontcourt and never come back.

Not only him, but all the players were a little over-excited, running around like a chicken blood.Even Weiss, the midfielder, pressed forward even more than himself.

"That's not okay!"

Mo Fei frowned.He has a clear understanding of the field. Although Stuttgart is in a hurry due to Hoffenheim's strong pressure, the opponent is not without the power to counterattack.Such a reckless forward pressure can easily be seized by the opponent to counterattack.He reminded his teammates to pay attention to behind him, but the excited teammates still went their own way and turned a deaf ear.

Mo Fei sighed, shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to withdraw his position a little, always pay attention to the other party's movement, and fill in the vacancy of his teammates.

Facing Hoffenheim's violent attack like a storm, Stuttgart really felt the heavy pressure.However, they were not frustrated by their passivity on the court, but they collided vigorously with their opponents.Conceding goals is not a shadow for them, as long as the team can attack the opponent's goal, the situation will turn in their favor.They are also waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to stand up.

This opportunity did not wait long.In the 35th minute, Weiss received a pass from Baker who was advancing forward. Instead of transferring the ball to Salihovic, who was in a better position, Weiss suddenly accelerated and dropped Gentner who was following him.

After the breakthrough, Weiss was refreshed and continued to dribble forward.Central midfielder Elson appeared on his route, and a cross body block blocked all his breakthrough directions.Weiss did not choose to pass the ball. With a flick of his ankle, he suddenly changed the line and accelerated to eat his opponent raw.

Elson has a lot of experience. He leaned against the opponent with his strong body, making Weiss stagnant, and then took advantage of the instability of the opponent's body to quickly take the football away.

After losing the ball, Weiss was shocked, turned around and swept away, trying to foul.Although he attacked very vigorously, he also understood how much trouble the opponent would bring to the team if they took advantage of the gap to counterattack.

He and Elson can also be regarded as "old acquaintances". When he was still hanging out with the Stuttgart youth team, Elson was the main force of the first team.Back then, I used this Brazilian veteran as an example, dreaming that one day I could represent Stuttgart in the professional league, but fate was so wonderful that when they met again, they were opponents.But he didn't intend to be merciful, even if he got a yellow card for a foul, he didn't care, he is now a member of Hoffenheim.He just wanted to use his excellence to tell those who gave up on him how wrong they were.

Weiss' second reaction was quick. After all, Elson was old and his agility was not as good as before.Weiss's kick successfully swept him to the ground.But unfortunately, Elson, who is getting older and better, made a cunning first kick and stabbed the football to Gentner in the middle.Seeing that the offense was favorable, the referee gestured for the game to continue.

This time the offensive and defensive transition was very fast, and none of the Hoffenheim players could react. Gentner had already controlled the football and pushed forward.And the Brazilian forwards Cacau and Gomez wittily moved forward on both sides!

Fight back quickly!
Mo Fei had been paying attention to Weiss's movement for a long time, and immediately rushed to Gentner's direction when the ball was broken.But Gentner didn't bother with him at all, took two steps, and suddenly shifted the ball with one foot and passed the ball to Cacau on the left.The soccer ball is flying high in the air, so we can only chase it underground in vain, but we can't catch up with the soccer ball in motion.

It's too late for Weiss on the left to return to the defense. He pressed too high just now.When Kakao easily unloaded the football, he was still ten meters away, so he could only stare anxiously.

In desperation, Compo had no choice but to pull out of the restricted area and force towards Kakao.If he remains indifferent in the penalty area like a wooden stake, Kakao can easily cut inward horizontally.Let a striker who can score 20 goals in all competitions in a season rush into the penalty area, and any fool can guess what the consequences will be.

Cacao has the delicate technique unique to Brazilian players. Facing the aggressive Compo, he slammed the ball sensitively, and then suddenly swung forward and easily wiped it away.

Comper's youthful and frizzy shortcomings were undoubtedly exposed under this bump, and he could only bring himself to be humiliated by rushing so rashly.Simunić had no choice but to lean forward.Of course, he didn't forget to signal Serna to help him fill the position, and made a temporary cameo as a central defender, sticking to Gomez.

But as soon as he started, Cacao passed the football from behind him, and the goal was Gomez, who was temporarily empty.It was too late for Simunić to turn around and block, so he could only pray that Serna would be the first to clear the football.

Cerna did stick to Gomez quickly, but his body as a temporary central defender was completely unable to compete with the big and thick Gomez.The opponent easily protected the ball, and when he squeezed, he staggered. He could only watch helplessly as the opponent took the ball two steps forward in a leisurely manner, and then lifted his foot to shoot easily.

The football is like a black and white elf bouncing over Hildebrand's fingers and rolling into the goal.

1:1!Stuttgart leveled the score on the road.

Lannick's face on the sidelines was extremely ugly, as if he was so gloomy that he could drip water.A large part of the responsibility for this conceded goal can be attributed to the team pressing too high.Weiss' mistakes and Baker's fall are the crux of the problem.Then a series of recklessness in the defense line led to the defense line being torn apart by three opponents.

If Weiss did not make a mistake and moved the football out immediately; or if Baker stepped forward and immediately retreated to the half court; or if Comper did not make a rash move, but entangled Kakao and waited for his teammates to return to the defense, the situation might be the same. It will be different, and the goal will not appear.But what if?No, so Lannick could only accept this fact helplessly and depressedly.

However, he did not make adjustments. He believed that the players would realize their own shortcomings and make changes automatically.Moreover, the first half is coming to an end, and it is not too late to make adjustments during the intermission.

But Lannick soon paid the price for his hesitation.

After conceding the goal, Hoffenheim was a little impatient. After serving the ball in the middle circle, they resorted to their specialty-lightning fast break, trying to overtake the score again before the end of the first half.However, Stuttgart had already prepared for this. When the football passed Weiss' feet, it was Elson who quickly grabbed it, stabbed the football away, and then shifted his kick and hit Baker's back again.

Just like the replica of the last goal, Baker didn't expect Weiss to lose the ball so quickly, let alone the opponent would recognize him and catch up with him.Before he could take back his forward step, the football flew past him.

The next thing is very simple.This time it was Gomez who received the ball, then cut inside, and passed it straight behind, Cacao moved, shot, and broke the net...

1:2!Stuttgart will overtake the score!

All the villagers of Huo Village were stunned. This happened so fast that people couldn't believe the facts in front of them.In just 5 minutes, Stuttgart scored two goals in a row, and still conceded the ball in the same way and at the same place.Even the players who make mistakes are the same!All of this is really too dramatic...

"Grass fuck!"

Lannick finally couldn't help but uttered a swear word.The performance of Weiss and Baker was really terrible. Although they tried their best to prove themselves in front of their old club, they were too excited. Look at the good things they did. Two consecutive mistakes caused the team to lose 1-0. In a good situation, the opponent overtook the score and fell into a passive position.

Lannick had the urge to rush into the arena and strangle these two idiots to death.However, his remaining rationality still allowed him to restrain his impulsive emotions.He couldn't afford to lose this game, not only because of his impact on the winter championship, but more importantly, he was also an "exile".He played for Stuttgart in his player days, but was ruthlessly purged in the end.When he became a coach, he also took up the coach of Stuttgart.But the boos of the fans made him feel ashamed, and he could only dismiss get out of class sadly.
