Chapter 76 Good or bad?

"Li, think of something!"

"Murphy is being marked, and it will be difficult for Matthias to break through alone."

"Nasri can't find any good opportunities either."

Chris's inner thoughts weren't as complex as Li Yanqing's. He was completely focused on the game and easily found the problem.

"Ah, don't rush, I'm thinking..."

"There is still a way."

Li Yanqing was actually saying this to Chris.

There's really no good solution to the current situation; their offense can't break through the opponent's defense, and their defense can't stop the opponent's offense.

All we can do is retreat and defend desperately, and then pray that the opponent will substitute their offensive and defensive core players in the second half.

The problem is that if we tighten our defense, the opponent may not substitute Terry and Grealish, who still have energy, in the second half.

If they continue to attack, and concede another goal, then the game can basically be surrendered.

"Damn it, what's there to be afraid of? Let's fight!"

Li Yanqing didn't think it was a good idea to concede the ball so early and then retreat to defend.

"Push forward!"

"Only Bradford will be left in the offside trap. Sun Yan and Enzo, keep an eye on them..."

"Oh, here we go again." Chris understood as soon as he saw Li Yanqing's arrangement, and he decided to fight to the death with the other party again.

Soon, Li Yanqing paid the price for his willfulness.

They conceded another goal at the start of the second half.

Grealish found another opportunity and put the ball into the goal himself.

Joe Hart, standing in front of the goal, was already getting angry. He frowned and criticized the defenders' performance.

The opposing team had taken no fewer than six shots in the match; if it weren't for him, Burton's team would have been completely overwhelmed.

As for our team's number of shots on goal, well...

"Substitutions: bring on Jamie and Ogradi, and replace Miller and Enzo."

Taking advantage of a break in the game, Li Yanqing made the first substitution.

Since they're already two goals down, there's no point in continuing like this.

They might as well bring on attacking players and keep fighting.

We have to fight Terry to the bitter end.

This was also the first time he had made the decision to substitute Enzo. The reason he chose Enzo instead of Baselli was because Baselli was marking.

He was able to contain Grealish for most of the time.

Enzo was a little unhappy because he didn't perform well in the game.

Li Yanqing patted his head but didn't say anything.

He would understand if he didn't perform well when he met his match.

As for the last spot, he planned to save it to replace Nasri.

The latter's physical problems were not completely resolved, and as soon as the intensity of the competition increased, his fatigue level reached 70%.

They can only continue the game for a maximum of twenty minutes.

Even if this would greatly weaken Burton's attacking ability, he had to make a substitution.

He knows what's important; if Nasri gets injured, it won't just be a matter of losing this one game.

"Quinn!"

"Come on, now you have to help me."

"Let's switch places so I can rest for a while."

In the 65th minute, Nasri found an opportunity and pushed Quinn forward.

"See the boss? He's watching me."

"If they keep playing like this, I reckon I'll be off the field soon."

"But you know, those midfielders are far inferior. If we bring them on, we're probably doomed to lose."

"I have to stay on the field, so the rest of the offensive duties are temporarily in your hands."

“I understand.” Quinn nodded, but still glanced at the opponent’s restricted area with some concern.

"But Ogladi's footwork is average, I'm afraid he won't be able to receive my ball."

"My delivery wasn't very good..."

"It's alright, the boss didn't bring him on to score, he brought him on to keep up with the opposing defenders," Nasri quickly shook his head and explained.

"Murphy didn't do much in the first half, but he definitely still has energy left. The main attacking threat for the rest of the game should be him."

"If you can't find his position, pass the ball to Jamie."

"Then return to the edge of the penalty area, preparing to take a long-range shot from the second ball."

"Go!"

"You're much better than me at this!"

Quinn was pushed to the front by Nasri. It wasn't the first time he had served as the offensive focal point, but he was still a little apprehensive at this moment.

He was absolutely confident that he was better than Chaudhry.

But let alone Nasri, even the previous Palmo was far superior to him.

Can he play a role no less important than the other party?

Li Yanqing, who was on the sidelines, also noticed that they had switched positions.

But he didn't stop Nasri's decision; instead, he shouted "Go for it!" a few times.

He wouldn't stop him; in fact, he'd love for Quinn to take over the midfield leadership role as soon as possible.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept finding someone to mentor him.

From veteran Williamson to Nasri...

The good news is that Burton's persistent attack is having some effect.

During this period, the opposing team finally made a substitution, replacing Terry, the former Chelsea captain known for his toughness.

The time is just right.

In the 75th minute, Quinn found his first good opportunity.

Thanks to the absence of Terry, Murphy was finally able to shake off the opponent's desperate marking and had more passing options.

Unfortunately, he overreacted a little.

If it were at the beginning of the game, it wouldn't be a big problem, but at this point in the game, it's estimated that only Sun Yan, the "perpetual motion machine," could receive that ball.

"Good job! Keep it up!"

Despite the lack of success, Murphy still gave Quinn a thumbs up.

Sending my first like of the day!

It's good to dare to try.

Seemingly sensing Quinn's intention, Jami on the wing was no longer in a hurry to move closer to the penalty area.

He realized that neither he nor Ogladi were the main offensive threats; their job was simply to draw the defenders away and then rush in to set screens when the opportunity presented itself.

Five minutes later, Li Yanqing could hardly contain himself.

The team's offense looks to be getting better and better, but Nasri is nearing his limit. If he is substituted at this point, the transition from the backfield to the frontfield will be paralyzed again.

Should we gamble on the team being able to tie the game, or focus on the players?

Only then did he realize how conflicted Mourinho had been about using Ibrahimovic.

Just as he was scratching his head in frustration, a whistle interrupted his thoughts!

Burton scored!

"A beautiful through ball!"

"They've pulled one back, so the score is now 1-2!"

Ok?

what's the situation?

Li Yanqing hadn't noticed, so he asked Chris.

"Quinn delivered a brilliant pass."

"They broke through the opponent's defense, and then Murphy put the ball in."

Chris wasn't particularly excited at this point. Although Quinn's brilliant pass and Murphy's comeback were something to be happy about, the team was still trailing.

Li Yanqing then looked towards the arena.

This kid actually found an opportunity!

Then, he was dumbfounded once again.

Name: SiFrancis Quinn

Age: 17 years old.

Status: Good.

Fatigue level: 50%.

Probability of injury: 20%.

Entry: [Through pass], [Through shot], [A flash of inspiration]

Quinn has finally mastered the essential skill for attacking midfielders: through balls.

But at the same time, his "sudden enlightenment" ability has completely disappeared.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
