Chapter 69 Double Strike



Chapter 69 Double Strike

"wooooo! Burton! Brave Quinn, Matthias!"

"The brightest starlight along the Trent River! Woooo!"

Most Burton fans were singing; the last time they were this excited was when the team turned the tide at the end of last season.

They kept quiet when they thrashed Huddersfield before, because it was their home ground.

But here, they can fill every corner of the stadium with their songs!

"Damn it, Pamo!"

"Take your bunch of trashy thugs and get out of here, all of you, with your heads down!"

A small number of fans were still shouting and cursing, with Will being the loudest. He opened a can of beer, drank half of it, and then poured the other half into the air.

"Salute to the traitor!"

On the other side, the Huddersfield fan section was eerily silent.

They could only endure the incessant taunts from the Burton fans.

Because the team lost.

"asshole!"

Why didn't you head the ball away?

It flew right over your head! But you didn't react at all!

The opposing team's captain is Menez, a genius who was just like Nasri back in the day and is not known for his good temper.

He grabbed Palmer's shoulders and kept questioning him.

Why not head the ball out?

Even a slight nudge can give the goalkeeper a chance to make a save!

They held out for seventy minutes and were preparing to launch a counterattack.

But before they could even launch a counterattack, they conceded the most crucial goal.

It was a devastating blow to morale.

"I...I don't know..."

Pamo's expression was somewhat blank.

In that instant, he was first fooled by Matthias, and then immediately followed by Quinn's powerful shot.

He was stunned when he realized the ball was flying toward his head.

The antics with Quinn in the first half instilled in him a fear of the ball flying toward his head!

Looking at the sidelines, the head coach had already instructed the fourth official to raise the substitution sign.

At that moment, Palmer's mind went completely blank.

He returned here, was tricked by Matthias, and then defeated by Quinn, who had taken his place.

And then, he was replaced.

He didn't even have a chance to redeem himself through good deeds...

A distraught Palmo didn't know how he got to the sidelines. He seemed oblivious to the jeers from the surrounding fans, simply clutching his head and slumping to one side.

To Li Yanqing's surprise, his decision to use Pamo as a breakthrough point resulted in the other party having an additional negative keyword!

Name: Pamo.

Age: 24 years old.

Status: Extremely poor.

Fatigue level: 40%.

Probability of injury: 25%.

Entry: [Slacker], [Soccer Phobia].

It's not a skill that increases mistakes like "butterfingers," nor is it a negative personality trait like "cowardice."

It's a medical condition: [Football phobia].

It must be a type of phobia. Anyway, this is the first time Li Yanqing has ever heard of such a phobia.

But one thing is certain: this match has left a significant psychological scar on Palmo.

The opponent's professional career is basically over...

The only person who didn't react much to the score being broken was Quinn himself, who scored the goal.

He didn't celebrate at all, nor did he pay any attention to the opposing fans.

They just watched as Pamo walked off the field, dejected and dazed.

"Quinn!"

"You scored a goal, you should at least do something for the fans!"

Li Yanqing patted him on the shoulder, signaling that he should take action; this goal was completely unexpected!

No one else expected that the final goal would not be scored by Jami, who was fighting hard on the wing, nor by Nasri, who was constantly initiating attacks, or by Ogradi, who seemed to have the best chance.

Instead, it was Quinn who wasted many opportunities at the beginning of the game and then almost disappeared throughout.

"That's strange, boss."

"This is the first time I haven't felt happy after scoring a goal."

"The opponent is our arch-rival, especially since this is a ball that could decide the outcome."

Quinn spoke calmly, but with a hint of regret in his expression, as he whispered his feelings to Li Yanqing.

"Because I really didn't intend to score."

"I'm going for that bastard's head!"

"But it's just a tiny bit too high, just a tiny bit..."

“No, it didn’t go high.” Upon hearing this, Li Yanqing shook his head, denying Quinn’s words.

"Your shot completely shattered Palmo's confidence."

"It also helped the team take the lead."

"That wasn't just a high shot, that was a double!"

Li Yanqing used his last substitution.

Palmo was substituted, and Quinn, his rival, also saw his form plummet after scoring.

So he substituted Quinn with a defensive midfielder, because the players needed rest more than the game.

In short, their feud with Palmer is now completely over.

Burton fans gave Quinn the loudest applause and cheers.

What does it matter if you're invisible? Those who manage to put the ball in that damned goal are their heroes!

Quinn responded to the fans this time, clapping around and then bowing to thank them.

Then, he stood next to Li Yanqing and turned his attention back to the competition.

The game isn't over yet!

With twenty minutes remaining, the opposing coach substituted Palmo and then brought on two more attacking players in a desperate attempt to salvage the situation.

This time they are not fighting with one less person, so it is too early to give up.

Li Yanqing then ordered the formation to continue to retreat, as it was now Burton's time to defend.

Enzo and Sun Yan, who hadn't had much work to do before, finally had a chance to shine.

Before Enzo, they couldn't beat Burton.

Now it's even more impossible.

Matias also actively tracked back to defend, and once he intercepted the ball, he would still initiate the attack.

Jami and Nasri were exhausted and couldn't keep up with him at all.

In the attacking third, Ogladi couldn't help him much; he could only try to stretch the opposing defenders and create shooting opportunities for him.

Unfortunately, he has the same problem as Jami: their shots are both a bit off target...

In the final moments, both sides battled fiercely in midfield, but neither created any real threat.

The opponent's attempts at long-range shots failed to defeat Joe Hart.

In the end, the score was 1-0.

"competition is over!"

Burton Albion beat Huddersfield Town 1-0!

"Both sides put on a fantastic match! Everyone fought until the very last moment!"

"But in the end, Burton Athletic won!"
