Chapter 34: Lin Hong's Second Hole Card(1/2)

"The ball is in, the ball is in... In the 44th minute of the first half, Imabari FC rewritten the score to 4:0. The goal for Imabari FC was our future captain Daisuke Yoshii.

What a beautiful shot, Daisuke Yoshii shot from a small angle after breaking through the baseline, and the football hit the goalpost as accurately as if it had been measured with a protractor.

This is a wonderful goal, although it is not as exciting as Lin Hong's goal just now, but the continuous breakthrough and the calm shot at the end make this goal no less difficult than Lin Hong's long-distance attack.

Of course, we cannot deny Lin Hong's role in this goal. Although he did not assist, his containment in the penalty area opened up a breakthrough route for Daisuke Yoshii.

They help each other in this game. They are worthy of being the twin stars of Imabari FC. I dare say that they will definitely become the greatest striker combination in the history of JFC. Fortunately, they belong to Imabari FC..."

Daisuke Yoshii finally scored a goal, and he excitedly ran to the fans to share his joy. Although he also scored in the JFL League last season, this season because of Lin Hong's presence, he always wanted to

He had to prove that he was no worse than Lin Hong, so this goal relieved his pressure somewhat.

Lin Hong also gave Daisuke Yoshii a hug to celebrate his goal, which was considered a return favor.

After Honda FC's fourth kick-off in the first half, Kazuyuki Toda was clearly controlling the rhythm. He did not pass the ball forward when he got the ball, but dropped his foot in the midfield.

Although Lin Hong still wanted to score a goal, he also understood Kazuyuki Toda's intentions. After all, he was already leading 4:0, and controlling the rhythm of the game in the last two minutes of the first half was the right choice.

Lin Hong, who couldn't get the ball, had no choice but to wait until the end of the first half. On the way back to the locker room, although his teammates came up to pat him on the shoulder one by one, Lin Hong's mind was still on Jiugongge, and he was itching unbearably!

Back in the locker room, Takeshi Okada first praised the team's tactical execution and made arrangements for the second half.

"This season we have a very sufficient reserve of offensive players, whether they are starters, substitutes, or even players who are not selected for the big roster.

Of course, our defensive capabilities are not weak either.

Our tactical thinking this season is to attack and destroy our opponents with constant goals. We scored four goals in the first half. I am very satisfied with this result, but I hope you will continue in the second half and don't worry about anything else."

Takeshi Okada is not a person who only cares about offense and not defense. He knows that his team's defense is not only the best in JFL, but it is definitely above the average.

As for the offense, with Lin Hong's monster-like progress and Yoshii Daisuke's growth, and supplemented by Takei Narihao, Toda Kazuyuki and others, it is definitely J3 level.

Takeshi Okada is not a conservative person at heart. When he led the Japanese national team before, he basically used a 433 attack formation when facing Asian teams. However, when facing strong European and American teams and African buffalo elephants, it was purely an opponent.

It's too strong, and there's nothing you can do against 442 and 4231.

Since the team's offense is now a level higher than other JFL teams, Takeshi Okada will naturally not abandon his martial arts skills.

Winning this game is certain. What he wants is the team's attitude. Of course, the most important thing is the response when facing other difficulties.

In fact, Takeshi Okada wants to say one last thing, which is "protect yourself!"

But he endured it, because a mature team will definitely encounter many difficulties. JFL is not a professional team and has all kinds of opponents. Kicking balloons and black-footing are all too normal.

, if they can't even cope with this situation, then they won't be able to play in a professional league in the future.

If Imabari FC continues to attack in the second half, then Honda FC will definitely be emotional and increase its defensive actions. It is not blind that Takeshi Okada deliberately stimulates Honda FC. He looked at Honda FC’s data last season.

They have relatively few red and yellow cards, and they like to play passing and controlling games. This style of play will not change much unless the head coach is changed.

Therefore, Honda FC has become the most suitable target for anger, but will they go crazy if they know that they are being used as a whetstone by Takeshi Okada?

Okada Takeshi is like this. If the situation is good in the first half and there is no need to make major adjustments in the second half, he will usually leave the locker room after explaining. This is conducive to communication between players and can also maintain the relationship between the head coach and players.

authority distance.

Since the head coach wanted to continue attacking in the second half, the mood in the locker room was naturally high, and everyone was full of enthusiasm and looked like they wanted to overthrow Honda FC.

Of course, the most excited person was Lin Hong, which meant that his offense in the second half was consistent with the team's tactical intentions.

After coming out of the locker room, Lin Hong discovered that Honda FC had changed two people. It seemed that the other team's head coach was completely disappointed with the team's first half.

However, when they came on the field, they discovered that the two new players had made opposite substitutions. Honda FC’s head coach didn’t know what had happened. He didn’t want to readjust the formation even after falling behind 0:4 at halftime.

, but wanted to continue the attack with all their might.

Lin Hong didn't expect that happiness would last so long. If Takeshi Okada gave him a silver mine, then the head coach of Honda FC gave him a mountain of gold.

With the right time, right place and right people, Lin Hong felt that it was not impossible to reveal the identity of the superstar today.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Kobayashi Akimaru, who was responsible for guarding Lin Hong, ran across the midfield line one step ahead of the forward in order to get to Lin Hong immediately. He vowed not to give Lin Hong any chance this time.

During the midfield, Akimaru Kobayashi was scolded by the head coach. Because of his negligence, Lin Hong suddenly broke out at a terrifying speed and rode a thousand miles alone, and then completed a hat trick in half an hour at their home court.

Fortunately, the head coach still trusted him and arranged for him to continue to closely guard Lin Hong in the second half. This time he issued a military order and would not let the Chinese kid get the ball easily, let alone score.

However, is Lin Hong really someone he can guard against?

At the beginning of the second half, Honda FC was about to launch an attack when they realized something was wrong.

Imabari FC players pressed forward in large numbers from the moment the whistle blew. Whenever the football moved wherever it went, Imabari FC players soon came to press, and there were always players in the local area supporting the press.

This is completely different from Imabari FC who defended tightly at the end of the first half, and also completely different from Honda FC's expectation that Imabari FC would play a defensive counterattack in the second half.

I scolded the people next door. You are leading 4:0 in the away game and you still don’t know how to restrain yourself. Do you want to form a deadly feud with us?

Every Honda FC player was so embarrassed and angry that their movements began to change.

"After the start of the second half, Honda FC players' defensive actions obviously increased, and although the referee blew the whistle frequently, he didn't seem to have any intention of playing cards..."

Fans who were listening to the radio in Imabari began to worry a little. They had also seen how black-footed the JFL games were. Many amateur players left the court early because of black-footed and court violence. This is not uncommon in amateur leagues.

On the court, Lin Hong was knocked down by Akimaru Kobayashi again, this was the fourth time in the second half.

"Mr. Referee, you stretched your foot when you had no chance to grab the football from behind. Don't you think you should be given a yellow card?"

Kazuyuki Toda ran to the referee to complain. He knew it might not have any effect this time, but as the captain, he had to stand up and put pressure on the opponent.

"No, no, no, although this action is a foul, it did not cause serious consequences, and I don't think it was a fight without a chance."

Sure enough, the referee's standards did not change because of Kazuyuki Toda's complaints. He still insisted on his own law enforcement standards, which is not to play cards unless necessary.

Some referees like to use cards to shock others, while some referees don't like to use cards. This is all a matter of the referee's personal style. It is obvious that they encountered the latter today.

Daisuke Yoshii reached out and pulled Lin Hong up, "Do you have any solutions?"

Lin Hong stood up and stamped his feet, then looked at Kobayashi Akimaru who was just two meters away, and said: "Give me more advance!"

The voices of the two of them did not deliberately lower their voices, just so that Kobayashi Akimaru could hear them, they were preparing to kill someone.

Daisuke Yoshii mentioned Lin Hong's request to several teammates in the frontcourt, and soon the opportunity came to test the effectiveness of Lin Hong's response method.

In the 54th minute of the game, Lin Hong assisted Watanabe Kobayashi in the frontcourt to press. The opponent's player who got the ball was in a panic and could only pass back to the goalkeeper. Daisuke Yoshii saw an opportunity and quickly rushed into the penalty area to press in an attempt to steal the ball from Shibazaki Hideaki.

Shibasaki Hideaki was so angry that the opponent's striker had reached the edge of the penalty area, and his teammates dared to pass back, and the ball speed was so slow.

There was no way, Shibazaki Hideaki could only compete with Daisuke Yoshii for speed. Fortunately, he still got the ball first, but he didn't have time to look at the situation in the frontcourt. He subconsciously thought about kicking as far as possible and clearing the ball first.

The most important thing.

Shibazaki Hideaki's big-footed clearance was indeed far away. The football flew over nearly 3/4 of the field, but unfortunately there was no one anywhere.

Imagawa Masaki ran out of the penalty area while observing the situation in the frontcourt. He saw Lin Hong running back with the oil bottle Akimaru Kobayashi, but there was no defensive player behind them.

You have to measure it in advance, right? No problem. Although the distance is a bit far, a goalkeeper's kick is a basic skill.

With a powerful "bang" kick, the football flew quickly to the right side of the field.

Lin Hong predicted the approximate landing point of the ball when he saw it coming. The amount of advance seemed to be just right, beautiful.

Stop suddenly, turn around, and accelerate instantly!

Kobayashi Akimaru subconsciously stretched out his hands and feet. Whether it was pulling him with his hands or tripping him with his legs, as long as he could stop Lin Hong, he would be a successful defender.

However, this time Lin Hong's start was too sudden, and his sudden stop, turn and start were too explosive, and he also had an active evasive action.

Calculating mentally but not intentionally, when Kobayashi Akimaru's hands and feet failed, Lin Hong was already two meters away.

Too bad!

Kobayashi Akimaru hurried forward to catch up, but unfortunately he couldn't catch up.

"Beautiful escape, Lin Hong's turn started too fast, and the opponent didn't even have time to commit a foul. The ball was placed very well, and there were no Honda FC players to defend it.

Lin Hong got the ball, and he was dribbling the ball towards the center. His dribbling speed was very fast, and his movements were also very skillful. If you can go to the scene to watch the ball, you will be surprised by how Lin Hong's dribbling movements look so like a captain's.

Toda Kazuyuki, I believe they must also have a lot of communication in private.

Two players from Honda FC came up to press, and there were people chasing Lin Hong. Let’s see how he handles it. There are two contact points in the middle, Shoio Fukuda and Narihao Takei. Daisuke Yoshii pulls down the back point. Lin Hong has many options...

…”

Lin Hong does have a lot of options, but there are people defending every contact point, and it is difficult to ensure a higher success rate when passing the ball.

His eyes glanced towards the center, and then he glanced back. Just when everyone thought Lin Hong was going to pass the ball... he hit the ball with his right foot and tilted his body to the left. The defensive player thought Lin Hong was going to continue passing the ball towards the center.

When the ball was played, Lin Hong quickly knocked the football back with his left foot.

The football moved from the right foot to the left foot, and then was carried forward by the right foot. The player who was defending Lin Hong just now had lost his center of gravity and could only watch as Lin Hong passed him and stepped into the penalty area.

"Oh, Fried Meatballs, a beautiful pass. This is the first time he has used this pass today..."

Lin Hong's passing movement was very fast, but the second defensive player had already pounced on him. At this time, the space for him to use fried balls to pass was already very small.

Fortunately, Lin Hong's passing disrupted Honda FC's defense. Takei Shigehao in the middle had already seized the penalty spot. Although he was half-turned with his back to the goal, his vision was very good.

Lin Hong passed the ball to Takei Naruho without hesitation. He did not raise his hand to signal because he knew that Takei Naruho definitely understood what he meant.

Of course, Takei Shigehao knew Lin Hong's intention. They had simulated it countless times in training, so he didn't care about the ball. He stretched out his foot and knocked on the incoming ball. The football just bounced into Lin Hong's running route.

In a small-scale collision with the wall in the penalty area, Lin Hong was not offside when he ran past the second defensive player. When he saw the ball coming, he already saw Hideaki Shibasaki rushing to block the shooting angle as much as possible.

After adjusting, standing still with his left foot and swinging his right foot high, Shibasaki Hideaki's only option was to defend mid-air balls and ground balls. As for the high ball, it was too difficult, so he jumped on it.
To be continued...
