Chapter006

In the corner of the stadium stands, Kenneth looked down at Rosen's reaction in this "anti-offside" performance, nodded slightly, and secretly commented in his heart: "Quick reaction, next it depends on whether he can successfully shoot the ball into the goal."

Rosen received Dominic's precise long pass at the front of the penalty area. Unfortunately, Rosen's ball-stopping technique obviously failed to meet expectations.

At the landing point of the ball, he tried to stop the ball with his foot, but failed to unload the ball. Instead, the ball rolled two meters away, approaching the edge of the penalty area.

Seeing this, Kenneth shook his head slightly, and other home fans on the sidelines also laughed and commented on Rosen's ball-stopping technique.

At the same time, Bonigom's No. 6 defender, who was following Rosen closely, keenly captured this opportunity and quickly exerted force, intending to bypass Rosen and clear the ball first.

However, Rosen did not leave any chance for his opponent. He knew that his ball-stopping skills needed to be improved. Therefore, when the ball failed to stop, he rushed forward without hesitation and successfully blocked the No. 6 defender on the outside.

Although his technical foundation was relatively weak, Rosen was no less outstanding than European adult athletes with his excellent physical fitness.

Although the No. 6 defender tried his best to squeeze Rosen away, he failed to do so.

While enduring the collision of the No. 6 defender, Rosen keenly observed the attacking goalkeeper, rushed to the edge of the penalty area, and shot decisively.

The goalkeeper opened his arms, half-crouched, and tried his best to expand the defense range. However, because his feet were too wide, he failed to successfully block Rosen's shot.

With precise shooting skills, Rosen shot the ball into the gap between the goalkeeper's legs.

The goalkeeper was shocked and tried to hold the ball with his hips, but failed. The football passed through his legs like a sharp arrow and shot into the goal in an instant.

Rosen equalized the score for Pulmes, and the two sides tied 1-1.

After scoring, he punched to celebrate, and then turned around to hug or high-five his teammates Lanier, Henik and others who rushed over.

His teammates patted Rosen on the shoulder or touched his head, praising his goal performance.

In the stands, Kenneth also believed that Rosen's goal had a certain amount of luck.

In a higher-level league, if the goalkeeper attacked earlier and more decisively, Rosen's chance after the mistake in stopping the ball would probably be confiscated by the goalkeeper.

The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.

However, for the goalkeeper level of the Class D amateur league, Rosen's performance in this shot is indeed worthy of recognition.

Although there is a lot of luck in a single goal, Kenneth still expressed a certain recognition of Rosen's shooting skills.

However, he still needs to continue to observe Rosen's performance to make a more accurate judgment.

After scoring the goal, Rosen naturally became the focus of the Bonigom players.

However, for this amateur team, Rosen's ability to run without the ball is too good. Almost every two or three minutes, he can run out of a great opportunity in the gap.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of insight into the gap and limited passing skills of the midfielders of the Pulmes team, even successful passes often deviate.

When Rosen stopped to adjust the ball, the offensive opportunity was gone in a flash.

In the rest of the first half, although Rosen had two shooting attempts, they both seemed quite reluctant.

One was successfully cleared by the defender, and the other was confiscated by the goalkeeper because of the weak shot. The first half ended with a score of 1-1.

At halftime, Rosen was praised by coach Van der No.

Scoring in two consecutive games is already quite good.

As an amateur coach, Van der No has a keener observation than the players on the field. He clearly saw Rosen's ability to run without the ball and find gaps in the first 45 minutes.

Van der No. was puzzled by Rosen's failure to show this ability before, and perhaps it could be explained as an epiphany or enlightenment, just as he had not scored in the previous two months, but now scored in two consecutive games.

In view of Rosen's ability, Van der No. decided to make full use of him in the second half of the game.

Therefore, he adjusted the tactics, requiring the players to pay attention to Rosen's running position and pass the ball to him more at the right time, especially when there is a gap.

He emphasized that the timing of passing the ball on the football field is crucial, and you should not wait for the player to run completely to the gap before passing the ball.

This adjustment means that the players need to pass the ball decisively when the gap appears, and Rosen needs to quickly detect and seize the opportunity.

At the same time, given that Henik was closely guarded by the opponent, Van der No arranged for him to cover for Rosen in the second half and help him create gaps.

This tactical adjustment made it clear that Rosen was the core of the attack, and other players were responsible for covering and passing.

Although some players expressed doubts about Rosen, who was only 16 years old, being the core of the attack, these doubts were not expressed publicly given his performance of scoring in two consecutive games.

Veteran fan Kenneth also praised Rosen's ability.

Although his first goal may have been a lucky factor, Kenneth believed that Rosen showed extraordinary ability in running without the ball.

This ability is particularly rare in amateur D-level games, so he decided to stay and watch Rosen's performance in the second half.

In the second half of the game, Purmes took advantage of Bonigom's contempt for Rosen and successfully played a beautiful attack.

In the 48th minute, Purmes launched an attack from the right side, and after several passes, the ball fell to the feet of front midfielder Lanier.

At this time, Henik rushed into the penalty area and Lanier passed the ball in time.

However, due to the focus on defense, Henik failed to touch the ball and the ball was tackled by the central defender of the Bonigom team.

But Henik had already noticed Rosen on the left, and he decisively swept the ball to the middle.

Rosen quickly ran into the penalty area, pushed the ball, and easily hit the ball into the lower left corner, helping the Purmes team to overtake the score 2-1.

After the goal, Rosen excitedly rushed to Henik to express his gratitude, and Henik also responded happily.

Other players also gathered around to celebrate.

In contrast, the players of the Bonigom team seemed more frustrated.

Vanderno on the sidelines also excitedly clenched his fists and shouted to celebrate the goal.
