"Koln Athletics made the switch, replacing No. 27 Nathan Ruth, and replaces No. 99, Raynaldi!"
Raynaldi finally came off the bench amid loudspeaker noises at Koln City Stadium.
Sixty minutes later, Thomas Sobek decided to replace a midfielder. The 24-year-old Dutch midfielder Ruth is Thomas Sobek's favourite player to replace this season. His successor was Raynaldi.
"Ray!"
"Raynaldi, come!"
"Good up and fight! Ray!"
At the turn, Raynaldi could hear cheers from the stands, some in German and there was also a small Indonesian voice.
Raynaldi and Ruth are replaced doing tos. The last one was a little unhappy. Now he knew he was going to end when he saw the turn card. This feeling is not good. Raynaldi could understand his mood, but there was no time for him now.
"Press forward! Give them more pressure!" Raynaldi conveyed the coach's intention after he came onto the pitch. Thomas Sobek was conservative, but now the team is behind. So instead of continuing to defend, it is better to attack strongly. Even if conceding and losing more goals will not be much different.
In this game, maintaining a tie and winning is a more reasonable goal.
SV Munster head coach Paul Matthew is a very young coach. Born in 1970, she is under 38 years old. He found that the team was currently in control of the game and the score was still ahead of the opponent, so he decided not to do so.
Indeed, before the game, he also imitated his previous opponent with Koln Athletics and appointed a player to defend Raynaldi. After learning that Raynaldi was not playing, his cards were instead used by his opponents.
But now the team has scored two goals in a row, Paul feels no need to make adjustments at this time.Tactics have been adjusted in the second half, and will now disrupt the existing rhythm if replaced.
In addition, Paul did not really believe how capable a seventeen-year-old child was that it needed to be looked after.
As long as the players pay more attention to it, as long as they can control the game and hold the ball, no matter how strong the players come, it is useless!
In this game, Raynaldi enters a state very quickly.
Raynaldi had played so many simulation games in the virtual stadium before the game, players who had played dozens of games before the game would naturally enter a state of affairs soon.
Virtual stadiums do not consume mental energy and physical energy in reality. So there is no fatigue from playing in it. In general, returning to reality after such practice will help to enter the best conditions in the game.
After Raynaldi came to the pitch, the mental view of the team was different.
Strength was insufficient, passive beating was still the same as usual, but Raynaldi, who had just played on the field, was very physically strong. This time, he did not have to worry about any physical problems.
Raynaldi contributed to stealing a successful frontcourt right after he got on the field. This is a forced pass to break the ball quickly.
Raynaldi broke into the penalty area completely and changed possession, he passed the defender and then shot with his right foot. A shot, the football was saved by SV Munster goalkeeper before hitting the inside of the crossbar and sliding into the net.
"Good gool!" Thomas Sobek jumped on the spot, clenched his fists and waved. He let Raynaldi play for this purpose.
There was an excited shout from the audience, followed by applause, and many fans chanted Raynaldi's name.
Raynaldi who will run into a corner to celebrate being knocked down by his team-mates. The game also shows the importance of Raynaldi in the team, even if he is frozen it still holds one opposing player at least.
“RAY! It was less than a minute that he got on the pitch, and he already scored his first goal!” Andrei shouted excitedly in his narrative.
The match continues.
Raynaldi discovers that SV Munster is not setting up players to guard him. Recently, in his virtual stadium training, he arranged for players to follow closely inseparable.
To be honest, in the first few games in the virtual stadium, Raynaldi did not perform well even if he had plenty of opportunities to use his skills.
Just as track and field athletes tie iron beams or heavy weight leggings on their legs during exercise, the goal is to simulate extreme situations. This way, once the load is removed, their performance will often be better than usual.
Raynaldi training is similar to weight training, only the athletes face real physical difficulties. What Raynaldi faced was a compacted playroom within a small distance. The common thing is that once they adapt to this rhythm, not only will there be no discomfort when Raynaldi releases it, but it will be more comfortable.
Initially, Raynaldi had to be careful to prevent opponents from seizing the ball at any time, but now there was plenty of space. When receiving the ball, he has time to observe the position of teammates and opponents, and has more time to make his next move.
"Tear, Ray played very well in this game! He's become more mature in handling the ball." Raynaldi's performance makes Danny Hooks shine.
"Yes, maybe he's practicing quietly behind us." Thomas Sobek said hesitantly.
"No, this is not a technical upgrade." Danny Hooks said it out loud. "Sobek, the place where I have an edge over you is that I used to be a professional player. I can see that Raynaldi's game this time looks more experienced and as if he has gone through a lot of games."
"I used to be a semi-professional, I understand what you want to say, but you have to know that he was not like this in the last game. Ray as I said, he's a phenomenon, you can't use your experience to judge him." Said Thomas Sobek.
Danny Hooks was silent after hearing Thomas Sobek's words. Indeed, Raynaldi also played in the last game, but that was just two days ago. How could such a change happen so quickly?
Both eyes returned to the field. Raynaldi, who has no "guardians", is very active. He can fly and ask for the ball with a lot of energy.
Although SV Munster does not directly limit Raynaldi, their defensive line is very deep. The whole game had entered the 70th minute, and their strategy was to maintain this draw.
During this period of time, Koln Athletics began to master the rhythm. The more of this moment, the less anxious it became. Raynaldi had such an experience in a virtual stadium.
Most of the time, he chose weaker players to fight against stronger opponents. In some matches, he deliberately dropped some first and then set up a counterattack. Raynaldi is the most capable player on this weak team. At first, he made some games played more aggressively.
This team is very difficult to turn around. In the last two headwinds, Raynaldi changed his strategy and played very calmly.
In that attack, the ball is not lost to prevent the opponent from counterattacking and continuing to expand the advantage. Instead, the effect is good. The reversal was successfully completed once, and at other times, although he did not win, he played some good strikes in the final moments, creating a threat.
At the moment, Raynaldi is also more retreating into midfield to help the team keep the ball.
There was also Robert in the penalty area. There are attacking partners to complete the work of pulling weapons on the front line. Raynaldi can do more, especially when there are no opposing players defending themselves. The Koln Athletics offense was very methodical, but time did not wait for anyone. Game time moves towards 90 minutes every minute.
The ball is on the wing, Raynaldi and Buhari make one-two passes to pass the opposing player, and then send the ball to Pollack, who provides an assist.
Pollack wanted to pass, but seeing Raynaldi spinning behind the opponent's full-back, he gave a breakthrough pass. Raynaldi picked up the ball on the left side of the penalty box and SV Munster full-back Defou came to his defence.
He was ready to defend the bottom line, staring at Raynaldi.
This Defou is an old acquaintance of Koln Athletics.
The Belgian full-back came to this team for four and a half years when Koln Athletics formed at the start in 1998. Most of the time, he followed Koln Athletics in the German lower league. He also helped Koln Athletics in the first season after promotion. He played 33 games and was recruited by Bochum before being sold to SV Munster.
So he is very familiar with the style of the game Koln Athletics. The bottom pass has always been the usual Athletic Cologne tactic. Before Raynaldi came onto the pitch, Robert played the same way he did when he was still a single arrow.
So he kept Raynaldi bottom for the first time, but Raynaldi didn't see him at all.
Because in the position of Raynaldi now he can see the position of the goalkeeper and the goal clearly.
Football came to Raynaldi's right foot, without hesitation, Raynaldi made the decisive shot.
Like a cannonball coming out of a cubicle, the ball hits the post on the left side of the goal and bounces out.
This shot made Raynaldi fall to the ground unsteadily. Seeing the ball unable to score, Raynaldi was annoyed to hit the grass.
In the virtual stadium, Raynaldi has scored a lot of goals in this position. He was pretty sure, but in a constantly changing reality, he still failed.
