Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 340

Chapter 340

After the warm-up match against Levante, Costa was very silent for a few days.However, soon he was full of fighting spirit again.Although somewhat restrained, signs of wanting to challenge Captain Yan Feng's position can still be seen.

Regarding Costa's situation, Yan Feng just looked at Sandor and the others and smiled after seeing it.In professional sports, competition and challenges are everywhere.Compared with the competition on the field, the competition among people around is sometimes even crueler.However, Yan Feng has the confidence to face any challenge.Whether it is from an opponent or a teammate.

The coaching staff of the Granada team also began to know this situation, but they did not stop Costa from thinking about it.In the words of Alcaraz: "Without competition from teammates, how can the vitality of the team come from?"

This is indeed the case, there is vitality in competition.The newcomers showed a pretty good competitiveness, which made the old players who had relaxed too much during the vacation all raise their energy.I am deeply afraid that if I am not careful, my position will be snatched away by others.

Under this kind of competition, the team's competitive level has been continuously restored during the preparations, and gradually began to surpass that of last season.

A week later, Granada played another warm-up match.This time the warm-up opponent will be much stronger, Chelsea from the Premier League.

Chelsea won the Premier League championship with an absolute advantage in the 16/17 season.The strength is not comparable to a team like Levante that has just returned from the Second Division.

Since it was a warm-up match, Chelsea basically sent potential supplements.Absolute main players like Diego Costa, Hazard, and Cesc Fabregas are basically sitting on the bench and talking and laughing.

Although the Chelsea team did not send the main force, the strength of the potential substitutes is still very strong.Facing such a Chelsea team, the Granada team dare not be careless.In the first half, the main players were basically sent.

The Granada team, which is almost full of the main lineup, can still occupy some advantages against most of the latent lineups in the first half.

The two sides played very stalemate in the first half, and the scene was much more intense than the previous game against Levante.

This time, Yan Feng also played more devotedly.Facing a championship team, although most of them were latent supplements, he was still aroused to win.

Yan Feng is not the only one who is more involved in this warm-up match, the entire Granada team is basically quite involved.In this way, the level shown by the Granada team is a level higher than the previous game.

Feeling the difference in the team, Costa was a little surprised, but soon became more excited.

Enough investment will have higher performance and combat effectiveness.As time went on, Granada gradually gained the upper hand in the situation on the field and began to constantly threaten Chelsea's goal.

Seeing that the team has an advantage, Costa, who started this game, also began to move around.Thoughts of scoring goals and expressing himself began to take over his head.This made him start to become a bit of a lone wolf.

Football is played by eleven people.It cannot be solved by one person.As strong as Messi, he also needs the help of his teammates to lead the team to continuous victory.If there is no suitable system and the support of strong teammates, no matter how good Messi is, he will often be disappointed in various national team competitions.

Costa is not Messi, and it is even more impossible to solve the battle on his own.If he is Diego Costa sitting on the sidelines in the opposition team, he may also score goals on his own.After all, the latter is currently the hottest super striker in the world.

It's a pity that Costa is David Costa, not Diego Costa.Although they are both Brazilians and have the same surname Costa, their strength is much worse.And the location is also different.

As a result, Costa began to squander the offensive opportunities of the Granada team.Even often robbed the strikers of their work, and made striker Kravitz began to complain about too few chances to hit the goal.

Under Costa's profligacy, Granada repeatedly missed opportunities.In the end, Yan Feng couldn't stand it anymore.Keeping Costa at the back, he himself started to get more involved in attacking.

Costa was very dissatisfied with being asked to stay behind.But soon, this dissatisfaction turned into depression and jealousy.

After Yan Feng participated in the offense, the Granada team's offense began to be sharper and more concise.Given the opportunity, Yan Feng will show off his strong long-range shooting ability.No, he started to show his passing ability that was strengthened during the vacation.

Compared with Costa's gorgeous flower portrait, any movement of Yan Feng is simple and fast.It may not look pretty, but this simplicity is more effective.

Granada's threat to Chelsea's goal began to rise sharply, and Kravitz's chances to hit goal also began to increase.Kravitz is satisfied now, but unfortunately his state is relatively average, and he was a little bit worse several times.

Granada had the upper hand but couldn't translate it into a goal.In the end, Yan Feng pierced the goal with his iconic violent long shot.Yan Feng's goal not only brought Granada the lead, but also caused waves of exclamation from Chelsea.

"This guy's long-range shot is so strong! It's even stronger than expected. I didn't expect that a Chinese player is also so strong."

Hazard and Diego Costa all looked sideways at Yan Feng's long-range shooting ability.

The opponent's exclamation made Costa, who was asked to participate more in defense, very disappointed.Such an exclamation was exactly what he longed for, but unfortunately it wasn't for him.

After Granada took the lead, Chelsea reacted immediately.After coach Conte changed someone, the entire Chelsea team broke out with a strong counterattack momentum.

Chelsea started to get more aggressive.Not only fought back vigorously, but also became fierce in the fight.Especially for the young players among them, they almost became red-eyed and played desperately, and their movements became a lot rougher.

With the efforts of Yan Feng and others, Chelsea's strong counterattack was successfully defended.Since there was not much time left in the first half, the first half ended with Chelsea leading by 1 goal.

By the time of the second half, both teams made adjustments.

This is a warm-up match, there is no need to win.So Yan Feng was replaced by Alcaraz to rest.Yan Feng is now the team's anchor, and Alcaraz is not willing to let him get injured in an insignificant game.

Granada replaced some main players, but the lagging Chelsea team began to replace the main players continuously.As Premier League champions, they have their own pride.If it is a loss to a team like Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​it is still acceptable.Lost to Granada?Even if they are already No.5 in La Liga, it won't work.

After Yan Feng went down.The center vertical in the midfield becomes Costa.Costa, who refuses to admit defeat, feels that what Yan Feng can do, so can he.But the adjusted Chelsea team began to teach him how to behave.He failed to lead and gain an advantage like Yan Feng did in the first half. Instead, he was pressured by Chelsea and could only defend desperately.

There is already a gap in strength between the two teams.After Chelsea sent the main force and launched a strong attack, the Granada team retreated steadily and was finally at a great disadvantage.

After more than 60 minutes of game time, Chelsea tied the score.After the equalizer, the Chelsea team went on to attack again and again.Although the Granada team was also a relict player, it was eventually overtaken by Chelsea.

Finally, at the end of this game, the score became 1:3. Granada was reversed and defeated by Chelsea.

After the game, Costa, who was entrusted with important tasks in the second half, seemed helpless and unwilling to face the defeat.

"It's not that I don't work hard, it's that the opponent is too strong. It's not that I didn't stand up, but that my teammates are not strong enough."

Being reversed, Costa finally felt that Yan Feng, who was replaced at halftime, was too lucky.And he was really unlucky to bear the burden of failure.

It's just a warm-up match.Losing against a team like Chelsea is nothing.Other than the coaching staff figuring out what to do with what the game exposed, it was quickly forgotten.

After the game, Yan Feng returned home.

But it didn't take long before the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?" Yan Feng opened the door, and the person he saw was shocked.

"Xue'er! You're here? Why did you come to Granada again?" Yan Feng was surprised and delighted.

"I miss you." Li Xueer who was standing at the door said affectionately.

"Xue'er!" A simple sentence completely shattered Yan Feng's hard-earned defense.

If you go to Tamade, you must choose one of the two.

Yan Feng no longer cared about his previous decision to let Li Xueer go, he hugged Li Xueer tightly.Then kiss her affectionately.

After a long and affectionate kiss, Yan Feng took Li Xueer's hand with one hand, and brought her luggage into the house with the other.

　Thank you for the support of the monthly ticket of 'Drunk and Tired'.At the same time, I would also like to thank other friends for their support.Finally, I worked hard to write a chapter.Recently, I have to revise the previous chapters that have been over-scaled, which is quite annoying.
