Although there was only 1 pass and 2 shots in this game, and not even a hat trick, the entire game was very intense and exciting. In the end, he received an SS rating and was able to participate in hidden draws and advanced reorganizations.

Gu Ran's "burst" attribute increased from 85 points to 86 points, "balance" attribute increased from 81 points to 82 points, "cross" attribute increased from 74 points to 75 points, "corner kick" attribute increased from 70 points to 71 points, and "vision" attribute increased from 70 points to 71 points.

Growing steadily.

This hidden lottery was pretty good. I drew "God-level Positioning: King of Picking Up Bargains", and the King of Picking Up Bargains was immediately upgraded from +1 to +4.

I have to say that the system lottery during this period is still very powerful - maybe the system has found its conscience.

In terms of advanced reorganization, Gu Ran upgraded the "Two-on-One Coordination +6" to "Enhanced Two-on-One Coordination +1".

Gu Ran was not in a hurry to add the 6 talent points he had washed out to the Two-through-One skill. After all, in normal training and competitions, there were still many opportunities to get the enhanced Two-through-One skill for free, so the talent points he had washed out could be saved first.

Adding the 8 talent points that Gu Ran had retained before, Gu Ran now has a total of 14 talent points.

From the perspective of gains alone, this game is still very profitable.

Although the little queen Taylor is leaving tomorrow, it shouldn't be a problem to get two talent points from her for free before she leaves.

When we returned to the Dune Villa in the evening, it was almost 11:30 in the evening.

The little queen Taylor couldn't wait to jump onto Gu Ran and hugged her as hard as she could.

The extra-long overtime game started immediately! It was not until the next morning when Taylor's throat was swollen that the two finally fell asleep.

At noon, after Gu Ran finished her extra practice, she cooked a bowl of Taylor's favorite instant noodles and added two eggs and a sausage.

When Taylor got up, his face was full of melancholy.

It’s not because she didn’t want to eat instant noodles. In fact, she loved them very much. It’s just that this would be her last meal of instant noodles.

After finishing the instant noodles, the female assistant would drive over to pick her up, and her happy vacation would come to an end.

Of course, she gained a lot from this holiday.

In addition to the pleasant overtime games with Gu Ran almost every night, Taylor also got 14 songs "tailor-made" for him by Gu Ran.

Based on the price of 500,000 pounds per song, Taylor needs to pay Gu Ran a total of 7 million pounds.

Compared to the actual value of these songs, 7 million pounds is simply a waste! However, Taylor originally intended to earn 700,000 pounds from Gu Ran, but ended up paying 7 million pounds instead.

Of course, Taylor didn't care about all this. He was already deeply addicted and just wanted to stay with Gu Ran.

It took Gu Ran a lot of persuasion before Taylor agreed to continue pursuing her singing career.

At around 3 pm, the female assistant drove to pick up Taylor, and Taylor said goodbye to Gu Ran reluctantly.

Gu Ran also took the opportunity to pick up two bright red talent point bubbles.

Before leaving, Taylor also took away the pajamas and pink diamond shorts that Gu Ran gave him as a souvenir.

As for the stockings... they were all torn into pieces during overtime, so there was no need to take them away.

Watching Taylor's car leave, Gu Ran felt a sense of loss.

After all, it is... a queen-level magic weapon.

And...overtime is awesome...

After receiving 700,000 pounds, Gu Ran immediately asked Rick to meet at Baker Street and settled the shopping receipts in Rick's hand.

Rick was finally free and no longer had to be beaten every day.

Rick is very grateful to Gu Ran.

At 3 pm on Saturday, October 9, the 11th round of the English League One will resume, with Southampton away challenging Carlisle United.

For this game, Gu Ran was on a rest and watched the live broadcast on TV at home alone.

Carlisle United is not considered a weak team in English League One. It is currently ranked 12th and is playing at home.

Gu Ran actually didn't want to take a rest. With his physical fitness and competitive state, there would be no problem for him to fight continuously.

However, Coach Adkins did not know that Gu Ran had a system bonus. According to normal experience, Gu Ran is still so young, and continuing to play football at a high intensity will definitely ruin his future. He must combine work and rest.

What's more, the next three games after this game are more and more difficult, first Charlton, then Bournemouth, and then Everton! If Gu Ran doesn't take a break now, there will be no time to rest later.

So Gu Ran could only accept this kind of rotation.

Gu Ran watched this game at home with great trepidation, fearing that his teammates would fail to perform and thus destroy the lead advantage that he had worked so hard to build.

Fortunately, Lallana, Lambert, Chamberlain and other main players all played.

Both teams played cautiously in the first half and the situation was very tense.

Southampton had several chances to score, but ultimately failed to convert them.

Carlisle United also had several scoring opportunities, but their forwards failed to seize them.

In the first half, both sides drew.

Southampton was in a very passive position for a while.

Fortunately, Southampton's backcourt defense is still relatively solid.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Chamberlain made a quick counterattack from the wing, Lallana made a pass from the top of the arc, and Gurley scored in one fell swoop!

Southampton is temporarily leading.

After this wave of goals, the two sides once again entered into a high-intensity confrontation.

Players from both sides committed fouls repeatedly and Chamberlain received another yellow card.

Chamberlain has received five yellow cards this season and will be automatically suspended for the next game.

This can be considered as an early reshuffle, which is better than suspending the game against Bournemouth and Everton.

Towards the end of the second half, Southampton played with fire in the backcourt.

Fortunately, Carlisle United's forwards are really bad, otherwise we would have been tied.

While Gu Ran was anxiously waiting, the referee finally blew the whistle to end the game.

In the absence of Gu Ran, Southampton won the 11th round of the English League One without any trouble.

Gu Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Watching my teammates play is more stressful than playing on the field myself.

After this game, Southampton continued to dominate the top of the English League One with a total of 30 points.

In 11 League One matches, Southampton lost the away game against Peterborough United, and won all the other games! Peterborough United finally won a game against a weak opponent, with a total score of 23 points, ranking third, behind Brighton.

Although Brighton was eliminated by Southampton in the British Championship, in the English League One, Brighton still maintained a strong crushing trend and followed closely behind Southampton.

In addition, Bournemouth suffered a round of defeat and has the same 23 points as Peterborough United, and is currently ranked fourth due to the disadvantage of goal difference.

Charlton Athletic remain in fifth place.

After Southampton's match with Carlisle United, their next two games will be against Charlton, which is fifth, and then against Bournemouth, which is fourth.

Only by defeating all the top-ranked teams can Southampton's advantage in League One be thoroughly established and they can free up their hands to focus on the League Cup and the upcoming FA Cup.

During this week's holiday, Gu Ran went to Haydn Manor to ride horses at Evelyn's strong invitation.

It had been a long time since they had ridden horses, so Gu Ran and Evelin used all their strength and rode all night in the stable...

October 16th is the match day for the 12th round of the English League One.

Gu Ran followed the team bus to the Valley Stadium in Greenwich to challenge the veteran powerhouse Charlton Athletic away.

Charlton is also a veteran team with ups and downs, and was once a strong team in the Premier League.

Now, Charlton has dropped from the Premier League to the Championship, and from the Championship to League One. Moreover, their financial situation is also in big trouble. The team's strength is no longer what it used to be, and it is difficult for them to even maintain the top five position in League One.

The most noteworthy thing about Charlton is that the Chinese player Zheng Zhi joined Charlton, which was still in the Premier League at the time, on loan from Taishan in 2007.

In March 2007, in the 30th round of the Premier League, Zheng Zhi made his first start, scored his first goal in the 52nd minute, and also created a penalty for Charlton.

It’s a pity that Zheng Zhi had too little playing time and Charlton’s performance at the end of the season was too poor. In the end, Charlton failed to avoid relegation and was relegated to the Championship.

Charlton Athletic Club and its fans were very satisfied with Zheng Zhi's performance. Therefore, in August 2007, Charlton Athletic Club bought Zheng Zhi from Taishan Athletic for 2 million pounds and gave Zheng Zhi more playing time in the Championship.

This transfer price also broke the transfer fee record of Sun Jihai's transfer to Manchester City that year, and Zheng Zhi also became the Chinese player with the highest transfer fee playing in England.

It still is.

Although Gu Ran's transfer offer far exceeded that of his predecessor Zheng Zhi, Gu Ran did not complete any transfer.

Gu Ran started with Southampton and is still in Southampton.

But what can be predicted is that once Gu Ran transfers, the price will definitely be shockingly high, and only a truly wealthy club can win the transfer battle for Gu Ran.

In August 2009, Charlton Athletic was relegated from the Championship to League One, and Zheng Zhi immediately announced that he would not renew his contract with Charlton Athletic and instead joined Celtic, a top team in the Scottish Premier League.

Therefore, the two Chinese players were unable to compete on the same field.

In this game, Gu Ran first sat on the bench and did not start.

Coach Adkins' intention is very clear, which is to give Gu Ran more time to rest, and at the same time take the opportunity to train other players of the Southampton team.

After the start of the game, Southampton adopted their usual 442 defensive counterattack strategy, pressing high throughout the game.

Charlton also adopted a relatively offensive strategy, relying mainly on impacts from both wings to compete with Southampton in terms of physical strength.

The two sides were evenly matched in the first half, with Southampton in danger several times.
