Chapter 82: Backfire (Part 2)

In the box, Evan Dogerty saw the scene happening on the field, and suddenly remembered the first time he went to the youth team to look for Tony. He saw the kind of training being conducted on the training ground - a group of people formed a small circle, and then asked Wood to grab other people's passes back and forth in the middle. The person who was robbed was going to the penalty run. There were many people punished at that time, and he still remembered a young man ran out and said to the coach: "The distance was too close, and the ball was cut off by Wood before it even arrived!"

It's really similar to today...

Jannakopoulos stood there waiting for the football to pass, while he was adjusting his feet, intending to kick the ball directly in front of him. This impulsive silly boy is really easy to be fooled!

"George Wood rushed to the opponent's half to press!"

Jannakopoulos soon discovered something was wrong because he was destined to not receive the pass. Nolan's pass was not strong and his speed was not fast, while George Wood's speed was so fast that they didn't expect it!

Backfire!

The panicked Greek was about to step forward to receive the pass, but Wood was one step faster than him. He lowered his body and slipped over, taking advantage of the speed and momentum of continuous sprints... he encountered football before Jannakopoulos!

Youngerkopoulos was fighting for the danger of being injured by Wood, but the football rolled over his leg...

"George Wood's steal was successful!" Gray shouted, "Nolan was too careless! His pass was too light... How could he pass such an irresponsible ball when pressed by the opponent?"

"Forest's counterattack! This ball crosses the defense... Eastwood!"

A huge cheer burst out over the city court again! Their top scorer of January received the ball from Wood. Because it was Nolan's return pass that was cut off, Bolton's entire defense line did not react at all to the pass. They watched Eastwood receive the ball without anyone being guarded, and then swung his right foot towards the goal...

Legendary coach! Legendary shooter! The door to a future full of glory... I kick it open with my foot!

"What-a-goal-!! Genius strike! This is Freddy Eastwood's second goal in this game, the fifth goal in three consecutive games since joining Nottingham Forest!"

The city court was shaking, and Tang En felt as if he was in a crater that was about to erupt, and he could hardly stand!

"George Wood made consecutive steals. He finally successfully cut Nolan's pass from the backcourt! Eastwood appeared smartly where he should have appeared! One was eighteen years old and the other was twenty years old, including the first half of the penalty shootout, nineteen-year-old young player Ashley Young! The young stars in Nottingham Forest are rising!"

After scoring the goal, Eastwood originally planned to find Wood, who assisted him, and took this opportunity to show his friendship. But Crouch, who was next to him, stretched out his long legs, blocked him, hugged him hard, and then more teammates rushed up and surrounded him in the middle. He couldn't see the situation outside at all. What's wrong with that taciturn boy? Is he among these people? Or is he still standing outside blankly?

"Poor Kevin Nolan, his pass mistake in the first half gave the Forest a penalty equalizer. It was his pass mistake in the second half, and he gave George Wood an opportunity to assist! Today is not his lucky day!"

Seeing his love player making such low-level mistakes, Allardes off the field was furious. He turned around and shouted to the Frenchman sitting on the bench: "Djoklaf, prepare to play!"

He determined that Nolan was no longer in form in this game today. The only thing that surprised him was why he was able to score at the beginning but his next state plummeted?

If Kevin Nolan knew that he was replaced because of this mistake, he would definitely feel wronged. This is not a mistake... His plan is perfect and seamless! It's just that No. 33 is too fast! If you change to another team and another opponent, his plan will definitely be successful, and it will definitely be!

He stood there. Next to him was annoyed Nigerian, and ahead was Yannakopoulos who was lying on the ground. The Greeks fought against Wood without hesitation, but instead injured himself. He covered his ankles and lay on the ground. His expression was painful...

Faced with such a situation, they had nothing to say.

And what about the "murderer" who caused all this?

George Wood ran to the celebrating crowd, but after a few steps, he stopped. He wanted to celebrate the goal with those people... but he didn't know how to fit in, laughed happily, shouted excitedly, waved his arms excitedly... just like those people.

It was him who created this goal and his assist. But he is now like an outsider.

Bolton, who was behind in the score, replaced Djokav with "unperforming" Kevin Nolan. Nolan was disappointed with Allardyce's decision. After being substituted, he went straight to the player corridor, did not shake hands with the head coach, nor did he return to the bench. Don En noticed this scene, the generals lost their ties? This is good news for the Forests to play in the next round.

Allardyce didn't care about what Nolan was feeling now. He had already used a substitution quota, but was facing the dilemma of using another one - Youngerkopoulos was injured. The team doctor suggested that it was best not to let him persevere. Substitution immediately.

This made him hesitate for a while. He originally wanted to replace Kevin Davis, who was injured. Unexpectedly, the accidental injury of Youngerkopoulos disrupted his entire deployment.

He decided to let Jannakopoulos hold on for a while.  See the game format.

The team doctor verbally comforted the Greeks, sprayed him with painkillers, and asked him to return to the court again.

The game continues.

Although the celebration of Nottingham Forest players on the court has ended and the game is back on track. But the fans in the stands are still celebrating the goal just now. George Wood rushed from the backcourt to the frontcourt, pressing continuously, and finally successfully shoveled and assisted his teammate with a goal, and also ruined the opponent's two people - one was replaced, and the other limped up - such a thing is passed by the fans. Wood has become the darling of the city stands without realizing it, although few people had heard of his name before the last game.

Allardyce hopes that the team can quickly restore morale and then re-launch its offensive against Forests.   How can Bolton be a Premier League team, how can he lose to a team ranked in the middle of the League One?

But just two minutes later, his team suffered another heavy blow.

Nottingham Forest scored another goal!

This time, the Forest took advantage of Bolton's opportunity to bombard him and make an efficient counterattack. Weiss Morgan drove to the frontcourt with big feet, and Rebrov stopped the ball and then hung the ball into Bolton's penalty area. Jaskolanin and Crouch rushed towards the ball at the same time.

If Bolton goalkeeper faces Eastwood, he has more chances to get this ball than 50%, because he can use his hands and when the football bounces high, he can jump up and confiscate it directly.

But the person who is now competing for this opportunity with him is Crouch, who is two meters tall and one-piece!

Such an opportunity is not 50% vs 50%! This is 80% vs 20%!

The distance between Crouch and the football looks closer than the distance between Jaskolanin and the football, and Bolton's goal will get the ball... but he stretched out his long legs!

Jaskolanin saw the football suddenly fly up from him, over his head, and then fall into the empty door behind him in the thunderous cheers of the city court!

3:1! Nottingham Forest leads two goals at home!

What's more fatal than this goal is the goal time - it's only less than two minutes before the last goal conceded. When Bolton just cheered up his morale and planned to equalize the score, they conceded another goal.

This third goal came so quickly that it completely fooled Bolton. Even veteran Djokav came on the court, it would not change anything at all - they were sure to lose!

Listening to the singing in the city stadium and looking at the red waves in the stands, Allardyce spat unwillingly and accepted the result helplessly.

Replaced Davis, replaced Okocha, replaced a defensive midfielder and a central defender... This proud Premier League coach had to lower his head in front of the A-level team Nottingham Forest and bow his head to admit defeat.
