Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 840: The heart of the lion king lost the game

It doesn't matter how loud the slogan is, or how hard Dunn's mouth is. Carl Spike’s analysis is not unreasonable.

With eight rounds left in the league, it is really difficult for Nottingham Forest to fight on the third line.

Physical fitness will definitely have an impact, and state will fluctuate. Physical difficulties can only make the team clenched their teeth, and the adjustment of the state depends on the level of the coaches. I have to say that the several psychologists that Dunn hired for Sha Xin a few years ago are very useful at this time. Many players will go to the beautiful and gentle psychologists to chat for a while after the training is over to relax their tension. nerve.

On March 22, the 31st round of the league. Nottingham Forest challenged Aston Villa away and the final score was 3:2. Nottingham Forest won, but it was very difficult. The Forest team trailed 0:2 in the first half, and went back 3:2 in the second half. All three goals were scored in the last ten minutes. This game was the most exciting game in the Premier League. The two sides scored five goals in total, one goal was blown off by the referee, and there were one red card and six yellow cards. The offensive and defensive transition was very fast, and both sides made a lot of active mistakes, and the scene seemed very lively. But for Dunn's heart, it's not "exciting"...If he loses to an opponent like Aston Villa in the away game, then he doesn't need to talk about the end-of-season championship.

So when Cohen made a pass after a forced breakthrough at the last moment and assisted Shaheen to score the goal, Dunn did not jump from the coaching bench and celebrated wildly. Instead, he slumped in a chair, closed his eyes and let out a breath. His heartbeat was very, very fast just now... it made him think that his nuclear-powered heart was about to collapse.

Eastwood was embracing and celebrating with his teammates at first, and then he realized that there was one missing person beside him. He turned around and found that the young man was still sitting in the chair. He saw that Dun En’s expression was a bit wrong, he was lazy and tired, not excited, and he hurriedly went over and asked: "What's wrong with you, boss? Heart?"

Dunn shook his head and smiled: "Hey."

"What does ‘hehe’ mean?"

"I'm very happy, we finally won..." Dunn reached out to Eastwood, who pulled him up, Dunn gave him a hug.

"Just win, Freddie."

As soon as Eastwood's eyes rolled, he thought of the boss and Spike's bet-that kind of gamble, if you lose, it really doesn't look good... "Why are you, boss? You have to fight with others. It’s a bet. It’s what you said about eating the table... Actually, I don’t understand the boss, why do you like to bet against someone that would be embarrassing and embarrassing to lose?"

"I'm lazy, Freddie. Don't put pressure on yourself, because I'm afraid I won't be able to walk." Dunn patted Eastwood on the back and released him.

Then he clenched his fists and opened his arms to meet the others.

"Ah, David! Come! Let's have a warm hug! Cohen and Shaheen did a great job!"

Eastwood watched from behind the head who had suddenly recovered all firepower, and shook his head.

"Tony Dunn escaped... his luck is always so good. In the game, Aston Villa had a goal that was blown off by the referee because they were offside. If the ball is not offside... The final result is hard to say. He made a rhetoric a few days ago that he wanted to compete for the league championship. If he loses, he will eat the table. Now he has driven himself to a dead end, and can't afford to lose a game... No, don't say lose It’s even hard to afford it."

Football commentators on TV are analyzing the just-concluded round of the Premier League for the audience. When talking about the game between Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa, he said so.

"But winning this game is so difficult, it makes people worry about whether his team has the ability to always reverse like this. I can say that the victory of this game is entirely because of Dunn's luck, so what next? In a game against Chelsea, can Tony Dunn have good luck?"

※※※

"Rijkaard's Chelsea have played beautiful football in recent years. I think they are a unique landscape in the Premier League, the same as Wenger's Arsenal. But such a beautiful football can never win the championship...I think Mr. Abramović must be very entangled. What? You ask me what do you mean by entanglement? You imagine a man in gorgeous clothes holding a rice bowl made of gold goes to the streets to beg for food..."

Dunn has fired his first psychological warfare against Chelsea in the media vigorously.

Rijkaard, who knew who Dunn was, didn't respond to him. Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Dunn fired a second shot in the media.

"Although the team will officially move to the new stadium next season, I still prefer this old stadium. Why? Because it is small enough to allow the fans' voices to reach the players on the field as much as possible. It brings huge psychological pressure to the visiting team. We have four home courts at the City Stadium. I hope we can bid farewell to the City Stadium with four victories and a championship trophy."

Rijkaard still did not comment.

"I don't mind making this game a rugby game. Within the limits of the rules, I will ask the team to put pressure on the opposing players as much as possible. Rough? No, no, I don't think. This is just normal tactics. ..."

The third shot.

Dunn is such an annoying person. He will always try to dangle in front of your eyes, irritate you, annoy you, and when you are really irritated, he wins.

Before this game, Dunn talked about what tactics he would use to deal with Chelsea. He was not afraid that this would allow the opponent to prepare in advance. He knows the characteristics of Rijkaard, so even if he knows this, he is not afraid. Rijkaard will stick to his football style at the City Stadium, and Dunn will stick to his style.

As the saying goes, one thing drops one thing, and Tony Dunn is the natural enemy of Jecard.

The noisy city stadium, a fierce Premier League game is underway.

"Forest Forest! Nottingham Forest! La la la la la la-we are all invincible, we are all invincible! We are the best team in the world! la la la la la —"

The bleachers of the City Stadium, which can hold up to 30,000 people, are full of seats, and Forest fans wearing red jerseys are cheering for their team.

The score shown on the score board is 0:0. Nottingham Forest and Chelsea are temporarily tied.

Dunn stood on the sidelines, observing every detail of the game intently and nervously.

Wood had just tackled Chelsea striker Obasi and he was verbally warned by the referee. Now he is gesturing to his teammates to signal that everything is normal, and continue to do what the boss said.

Dunn had studied the characteristics of the referee when he made tactics before the game. The referee Phil Dowd, who enforced the game, has enforced nine Premier League games this season. He has shown a total of 20 yellow cards and none of the red cards. He is a referee with a soft whistle. So he worked hard from this point and asked the whole team to move more aggressively.

Wood's foul is actually testing how the chief referee's enforcement scale is in this game.

He shoveled Obasi head-on, but only received a verbal warning. Dunn laughed below, and it seemed that this old man Dodd was indeed very soft.

Then he was relieved.

The subsequent game officially entered the track of Nottingham Forest. Chelsea players have repeatedly lost the ball in "physical contact" with Forest players, and the referee did not think it was a foul, but just a "reasonable collision." This makes Chelsea's players a little dissatisfied, and their mentality on the court is out of balance. Even their head coach Rijkaard was angry at the referee's several penalties, and he rushed to the fourth official several times to protest the crude actions of the Forest players.

He even said: "Before the game, Tony Dunn said he would use rough tactics to deal with us, and now he has got his wish! Don't you have any opinions?"

The fourth official shook his head and said that the referee is the only criterion for mastering the scale of the game. If he thinks that the Forest players did not foul, then there is no foul.

It wasn't until the 31st minute of the game that the Forest team received a yellow card from Bell after a series of fierce fouls. Rijkaard was on the court and applauded the referee's judgment. As a result, he was greeted by the fourth official: "Mr. Rijkaard, you better pay attention to your words and deeds."

Rijkaard is not Tony Dunn. He dared to fight with the referees to the end. After being warned, he withdrew to the coaching bench, only to punch the side baffle on the coaching bench with some annoyance. result……

With a crash, he smashed the hard plastic baffle off the frame and fell to the ground.

Rijkaard doesn't care, he is very angry now, what is the smashing of a baffle? Or maybe he didn't see this scene at all, anyway, he didn't even look at the "accident" that happened next to him, and continued to chatter and complain on the coach's bench.

Dunn clapped his hands and laughed when he saw this scene next to him: "Great! After the game, in the name of the club, personally send a bill to Mr. Rijkaard and let him be responsible for compensation."

Chris Lak nodded beside, indicating that he remembered.

Not long after this yellow card, the Forest team took the lead. Gago scored a long shot, but Cech couldn't make a save, so he could only look at the "ball" and sigh.

"YES!" Dunn exclaimed excitedly with his fists clenched on the sidelines.

And Rijkaard, who was not far away, was going to beat the baffle next to him again, but this time he thumped and almost flashed to his waist. He then noticed that the baffle beside him was gone. "Damn..." Looking at the empty frame beside him and the baffle below, he couldn't help cursing.

The game commentator also noticed this little detail. Seeing Rijkaard’s surprised and unhappy expression, he laughed: “It seems that the city stadium that has served for 115 years is indeed time to retire, even the visiting coach The baffles of the seats were so weak that they fell off after being beaten lightly by Rijkaard...Ha!"

After the lead, the singing of the city stadium became louder. Fans took turns in the stands to sing the songs they often sang during the game. There was the team song "The World is in Our Hands" by Nottingham Forest, the song by George Wood, "He is our St. George", and there was Tony Dunn. The song "Long live Tony", there is Bell's song "Little Monkey", there is Mitchell's song "Seven-foot Zidane", there is Ibisevic's song "Super Iby", and there is "He who praises Gago". It's our Redondo"...Of course, there is also Eastwood's song "Robin Hood Forever". Any popular player will have a fan song. This is not a patent of Nottingham Forest. This is the characteristic of all English teams. So it depends on the status of a certain player in the Premier League club. Just listen to whether there are fans singing songs compiled for him during the game.

The Forest team gradually grasped the initiative on the field during the fans' concerts and ran with Chel's nose.

Chelsea in the Mourinho era was a very tough team. At that time, Chelsea, Dunn would not use the current tactics to deal with them, because it would only hurt both sides. But after Rijkaard’s “hard work” over the past few years, Chelsea has now discarded its former “blue-collar temperament” and transformed into a “senior white-collar”. The new generation of Chelsea players are based on technology. They play like Barcelona before. They pay attention to the control of the ball. They can play exquisite cooperation, and the stars can also stage stunning performances. But they lost the "combat spirit" that Mourinho had always emphasized.

This is also why Rijkaard’s Chelsea are the most beautiful teams in the Premier League, but they always miss the championship-he can turn Chelsea into another Barcelona, ​​but the Premier League is not La Liga.

Tony Dunn is not afraid of Chelsea, who has no fighting spirit and only a glamorous appearance. In the second half, encouraged by Dunn's halftime break, the team made persistent efforts and continued to use rough tactics to limit Chelsea's offense. The referee's whistle was indeed very soft. In the end, the audience counted 27 fouls from Nottingham Forest, but only received four yellow cards and none of the red cards.

Relying on rough fouls and quick and fierce counterattacks, the Forest team scored another victory in the second half and finally defeated Chelsea, their first strong opponent on the road to the championship, with a score of 2:0 at home.

After the game, Rijkaard was indignant at the failure of the game. He believed that the referee's multiple key penalties were in favor of Nottingham Forest, which was the key factor in losing the game.

Dunn sneered: "I fully understand Mr. Rijkaard's dissatisfaction because he knocked out our visiting team coaching seat."

There was a burst of laughter from the reporter. That incident became the highlight of the game, and it was replayed many times during the live broadcast of the game.

"But I don't make any comments on the referees of this game. I believe that every penalty made by the referee has his own reason. As a team, we only need to obey..."

When his team was treated unfairly by the referee, he would not say such things.

Rijkaard originally wanted to refute something, but he suddenly remembered that the person sitting next to him was Tony Dunn, not Wenger, Benitez, or anyone else, so his opened mouth closed again. On it.

He thinks he is unlucky...

※※※

A day later, just as Rijkaard had just returned to London with the team, he found a bill from Nottingham Villeford in the mailbox of his home.

It was sent to him by the Nottingham Forest Club, asking him to compensate the visiting team coaching seat damaged during the game.

A short letter was attached to the bill. The letter hoped that he would be able to compensate for the loss, and his tone was very respectful, but Rijkaard gritted his teeth-not to mention that he led the team and lost to the Forest team, but also paid to compensate their visiting team coach... How can there be a head coach as unlucky as himself?

At that moment, he was angry and crumpled the bill in his hand. But then he unfolded it again, reluctantly watching it again.

He has to pay this money because he really broke other people's things...

However, if it weren't for Tony Dunn's team, he would pay the money willingly and even feel guilty. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
