Chapter 48 The perfect performance
Chapter 48: Perfect Performance
The clearing ball in the backcourt fell to Nogan who was at the front. Nogan did not forcefully dribble the ball, but handed the ball to Grant who was inserted into the side to receive it. He then rushed forward. Grant dribbled the ball forward a few steps and passed it back to Brian behind. Brian passed it back to Moyes. Moyes saw that Nogan was about to rush to the opponent's 30-meter area, and immediately passed it to the frontcourt with a long pass.
Nogan competed with the opponent's defender for the position, rushed to the corner of the penalty area before jumping high, removed the ball with his chest, made a forced breakthrough into the penalty area, and then dunked the ball back, then raised his foot to pass the ball to Tiger who was inserted to assist.
After receiving the ball, Tiger struck horizontally, dodged the defender who was making up for defense, and immediately took a strong long shot from the top of the penalty area!
Berry's goalkeeper made another side pass and saved the ball.
This was Preston's sixth shot within ten minutes. During this period, Berry was completely suppressed by Preston, and the counterattack just now was easily resolved by Preston.
"It's been more than thirty minutes." Tiger thought to himself that Preston was very strong during this period, but if he couldn't tie the score quickly, perhaps this tone would be leaking.
Peters made a substitution, and substitute forward veteran Reeves replaced defender Squiels to strengthen the offense!
Berry took another step back!
As time passed by minute by minute, Preston's offensive momentum began to slowly slow down. Tiger, who was a little impatient, retreated to ask for the ball, and Bryson immediately passed the ball to him.
Receive the ball, turn around, break through!
When the opponent didn't know when he would pass the ball, Tiger's breakthrough began to appear more and more fierce. It was not until after breaking through to the front of the penalty area that a defender stole him.
There were three or four Berry's defensive players in the penalty area. It was obviously not a good decision to force a breakthrough at this time, but Tiger did so.
After dribbling a cross-cut and pretending to shoot, the opponent's defender's center of gravity shifted, Tiger quickly dunked the ball back and then directly entered the penalty area.
Another defender posted him, and Tiger forced a breakthrough again!
Two seconds later, the referee's whistle rang firmly. Tiger, who fell to the ground, raised his arms, and the roars of Preston fans in the stands shook the world!
Penalty! In a hurry, Berry's defender tripped Tiger. Tiger fell naturally and the referee awarded a penalty!
Berry's players opened their arms and complained to the referee. The boy was hit by us several times when he was outside the penalty area but he didn't fall to the ground. He fell as soon as he entered the penalty area. It was a fake fall!
However, the referee insisted on his penalty. He saw clearly that the defensive player's foot was crossed in front of Tiger's feet, and Tiger tripped. Even though it fell a bit exaggerated, it was a real foul.
Several Preston players rushed towards Tiger with yelling and got an equalizer penalty in this nearly forty minutes. Now the advantage can be said to be completely on Preston's side!
After hugging, Preston's players walked outside the penalty area and waited for a penalty kick.
Preston's number one penalty kicker is forward Nogan, which is a good opportunity to score twice.
After the referee blew a whistle that could take the penalty, Nogan started and shot!
Perhaps because of his excitement, Nogan's shot was a little bit positive, and Berry's goalkeeper made a accurate judgment and saved the ball with one hand!
The sighs of Preston fans sounded in the stands, but their sighs quickly turned into cheers!
The ball that was rushing out rolled on the lawn, and a white and blue figure (the color of Preston's home jersey) rushed out of the crowd, and then immediately faced the ball that was rolling out and shot with one shot!
"goal! Tiger - Lee! Scored twice! Great performance! Four to four!"
After scoring the goal, Tiger let out a roar, then opened his arms and rushed to the sidelines, accepting the cheers from all the fans at the court,
A substitute came on the bench, two goals, one instigation - is there any more perfect performance than this?
At this moment, countless Preston fans remembered this pretty face and not strong body. Almost no one would care about the results of the game. From one to four to four, such a score was enough to satisfy the most demanding fans.
"Look, that's my son!" Old Li yelled proudly at the stadium, then slapped her hands, and excitedly gave Tiger the thumbs up below.
"Is that your son?" Someone suddenly asked Lao Li next to him.
Old Li turned around and saw a strange face, but he still nodded proudly: "Yes, this is my son!"
"Congratulations, your son is our Preston's pride!" The other party laughed, then patted Lao Li on the shoulder, and then waved his arms into the field.
Old Li, who was confused by the other party, smiled. Maybe this is the characteristic of the fans...
If Berry's players still had fighting spirit when they were three to four, then the current draw has shattered all their pride as the leader. At this time, no Berry's players were thinking of winning this game, and it would be nice to be able to keep the draw...
Berry's coach changed two more times, one defender and the other defended the midfielder, replacing the top scorer Mora and attacking midfielder John Ross, who is already planning to save the draw.
With little time left, he made the most embarrassing but rational decision. Almost all the players joined the defense and kept the draw until the end of the game. Although he was still attacking the second before the referee blew the final whistle, he still failed to score the winning goal in less than ten minutes left.
But even so, when the final whistle sounded, Preston's fans still cheered like crazy, celebrating the point they won at home!
But everyone knew that what they were celebrating was not this seemingly valuable point, but that after watching Tiger's perfect performance in the second half, everyone was full of confidence in Preston's next results!
What's more, with Preston's current situation, even if he just draws the leader at home, it is something worth celebrating.
Tiger and his teammates came to the sidelines to greet the fans on the scene, took off their shirts and threw them into the stands. Tiger did as well, and then his jersey was snatched...
Looking at this scene, Tiger grinned and laughed, and then he saw his parents who were giving him a thumbs up in the stands.
Tiger also gave a thumbs up to the stands. At this moment, he was full of great confidence in his future.
