Chapter 9: Chapter 9
Time passed in the intensive training, and soon came the day of the away game against Danze, Nagi naturally entered the squad again and went out with the team.
This is also the first time he has left with Verton, so he is very excited, but in order to unify the management, the head coach Mette Magritte does not allow everyone to leave the hotel privately, which makes Nagi a little regretful.
Rennie Delvaux was still in the same room as Nagi. Seeing his gloomy eyes, he smiled and said, "Mina, if you want to travel, there are many opportunities during the summer offseason. To be honest, the scenery around Belgium is beyond my imagination." I'm almost throwing up, I plan to go to France this holiday."
Nagi said: "I didn't want to play anything, but to find a place to practice, but I could only stay in the hotel, alas."
Rennie shrugged helplessly, and the two passed the time on the TV.
The official match was on Saturday afternoon, and the ball market in Danze was much better than that of Verton. The stadium could accommodate almost 8,000 people, and the stands were also full of fans of the home team. They cheered in unison, and Nagi was also scared when he came on the field. one jump.
He was still sitting on the bench for this game, but there were still a few Danze players who looked down at him. It should be that the news of last week's game reached them, so they were a little curious.
What Nagi didn't know was that in the stands at this time, Genk's scout Andre Diest was also there, but Anderlecht's Henks was not there. Compared with the previous game, There were a lot fewer scouts for this game, and most of them continued to chase St. Gillian.
With the whistle of the referee, the game officially started. After a simple test, the two teams began to attack and defend each other. Nagi could see clearly off the court that, unlike the last match, Verton appeared to be relatively calm this time, and Danze and Verton were relatively similar in player strength, so there was no crushing situation.
Paul Chuck's performance in this game was quite satisfactory, without too many mistakes. It may be that Nagi put too much pressure on him, so after he became non-stick to the ball, he still performed normally.
The head coach Mette Magritte on the sidelines was not satisfied with the performance on the field, because Verton should have the advantage in this game, if it were not for the main injury.
Glancing at Nagi who was frowning on the sidelines, he made a decision. A substitution was made in the 20th minute of the first half, and Nagi was to replace a midfielder.
The coach of the visiting team saw this scene and smiled contemptuously. He really regarded a 16-year-old child as a savior.
The replaced player hugged Nagi, looking a little helpless, no one wanted to be replaced so early, but Nagi was brought to strengthen the offense, and he couldn't help it.
After Nagi came on the field, the possession of the ball belonged to Verton. He immediately rushed forward from the right and directly faced the opponent's left back No. 9 player. This player should have heard of Nagi's name, so he hurried forward come with him.
After coming to his side, he was still muttering: "Little rookie, you were lucky in the last game. I won't be so easy on you like St. Gillian United." .
Nagi didn't pay attention to him, but stared at the direction of the ball intently, and then suddenly started it. The opponent No. 9 was caught off guard, and was thrown away in the blink of an eye. He was shocked instantly and chased after him.
Relying on the instantaneous explosive power, Nagi got rid of the defender and ran to the open space. Paul Chuck, who was in possession of the ball, hesitated for a moment, but still passed the ball. The delay of this moment has already made the defensive No. 9 chase him. .
He saw that the opponent's No. 9 fell to the ground as a sliding tackle. Although it is very likely to foul, his playing style is relatively ruthless, so that the defenders should be afraid.
After Nagi stopped the ball, he felt the danger. He kicked the ball forward with his right foot, jumped up to avoid the sliding tackle, and then quickly chased after the ball.
He pushed the ball, and the head coach waved his arms excitedly on the sidelines.
After passing the full-back, Wang Feng took the ball and ran all the way. When he got near the penalty area, he crossed it directly to the front of the penalty area. Since the defensive players of the home team were all attracted by Nagi, Paul Chuck, who was inserted in the back row, was unguarded, so he taking advantage of the situation, he dribbled the ball into the penalty area, then took a volley and sent the ball into Danze's net.
1:0! In the 24th minute, Verton successfully took the lead, only four minutes after Nagi came on the field.
Paul was obviously also a little surprised, because Nagi could take the ball again, but he passed it without hesitation. This goal was also his first goal since a long time.
Nagi's desire for victory is pure. When he saw that Paul was in a better position, he passed it on. At this time, he was also quite happy. After the team took the lead, he would relax more.
At the same time, Nagi also found that the defense of the Belgian Second Division is relatively loose, and it is often a targeted area defense. Once a breakthrough is made, the team's response is insufficient, which will cause a large gap.
Of course, this is also based on being able to break through the zone defense. After this period of continuous practice, Nagi's sense of the ball is getting better and better, and he is also very confident on the field, so he can make a lot of breakthrough moves.
Among the cheering crowd, Nagi saw the head coach Mette Magritte, who nodded towards Nagi with a smile, as if affirming his performance.
The fans of the home team in the stands were a little quiet. They obviously didn't expect to fall behind so early, but they immediately cheered for the home team lively, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible.
The score was fixed at 1:0 in the first half. The morale of Verton's players was high and they decided to take 3 points home. In the locker room, the head coach also praised everyone's performance. I hope to make persistent efforts. In the second half, when the defense is solid Counterattack, after all, the score of 1:0 is not very stable.
After the start of the second half, Verton's offensive focus gradually shifted to Nagi, because they found that only Nagi could tear through Danze's defense and create threats.
At the 70th minute of the game, Nagi got another chance and wanted to dribble past the opponent's No. 9 again, but this time the latter tackled more decisively, destroying his breakthrough and also received a yellow card. Nagi avoided the vital points to prevent himself from being injured.
The fierce defense could not scare Nagi, he got up panting, and continued to attack.
It was another chance for Verton. After successfully stealing the ball, the right back was about to clear the siege, but Nagi quickly retreated and pointed at the midfielder to ask for the ball. After hesitating for a while, he still passed the ball.
Nagi gritted his teeth and quickly cut inside, got rid of the defender, got the ball near the midfield, then turned around quickly, and killed the opponent's frontcourt.
At this moment, Danze's defenders hurried forward to block him,Nagi made a deep-fried ball without hesitation, feinted a shot and easily passed the weak defender.
There were bursts of exclamations from the stands, because Danzi's backcourt was very empty at this time, and the defensive players' positioning was problematic. After Nagi passed the defensive players, he could directly intimidate the penalty area.
The full-back who quickly defended was also running hard at this time, his fierce look seemed to say: "Look, I wil break your legs." Nagi looked to the right while dribbling the ball, and Paul was also struggling to keep up. .
So he kicked a diagonal pass to the front right, and the defending full-back was taken aback. He thought Nagi would do it alone, but he passed the ball and had to turn his gun to chase the ball.
After Paul followed up and received the ball, he glanced at Nagi's position, and then passed the ball straight through.
Beautiful two over one! One-handed!
Nagi had already reached the edge of the penalty area after receiving the ball, the goalkeeper had no choice but to attack, Nagi decisively kicked out, the ball drew an arc, passed over the goalkeeper, then sank suddenly and went straight into the net.
And the ball was scored, and Nagi scored again!
