At the start, Mane and Salah flew on both wings

In the blink of an eye, the match day arrived. On August 20, Zhou Xu, the coaching staff, and the players came to Hartlepool to play away against Hartlepool United, which had two wins and one loss.

In the visiting team's locker room, Zhou Xu only explained one thing,"Kante, Robertson, you should pay more attention to Solano on the wing, give him respect, be tougher when facing him, and be brave. You are children, he It's still an old man. If Solano is restricted, Hartlepool United will lose their offense and we will be able to win.

The 30-year-old England midfielder Anthony Sweeney will also have to closely mark Pogba, Verratti and Kante. To mark him, he can be said to be the starting point of the offense other than Solano. If Joe Gray, the opposite left winger, and Maguire get him on the body, resist him, resist him, and never let him feel comfortable. Received the ball from the backcourt.

Forward Josh Umelah, this is a weak foot. His left foot is not worth mentioning compared to his right foot, so there is always someone on his right and his left. You can relax. We also need to press the defender. The 28-year-old Euan Murray is the weak link in the defense. Mane and Vardy need to press him more."

The conversation changed and Zhou Xu extended his hand.

"Come on, everybody! Four consecutive wins are waving at us."

He walked onto the field with his head held high, next to the home team coach Monkhouse.

As the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the fourth round of the English League One match between Hartlepool United and Notts County began.

This time Maguire failed to guess the coin, and Hartlepool United kicked off first.

Just 47 seconds into the game, Salah's tough breakthrough won Notts County a free kick in an excellent position, and Hartlepool United's right back Evan Horwood was also shown a yellow card by the referee.

"Verratti, leave it to me."Pogba took the initiative to take the free kick. In Nottingham Forest, the division of labor for free kicks is that Verratti takes free kicks with a low chance of shooting, and Pogba takes free kicks that are all shots. This means that Pogba wants to shoot.

"Pogba, he wants to take this free kick, run up, and hit the goal! Hit the wall, Pogba, let me wait in vain."

Zhou Xu thought Pogba was here to feel it, but it turned out that he was going to come up and cover him.

"Mane stole the ball, and Murray failed to withstand the pressure of Vardy and Mane. Mane distributed the ball, and Verratti received the ball and then separated. Is Salah on the wing going to pass?"

"Salah, this way!"Vardy is making quick moves.

"Salah did not choose to carry the ball himself, but passed it to Vardy. He received the ball and had a single shot. Goalkeeper Flinders attacked and lobbed the ball! The ball went in. Vardy scored the goal. This was a goal that Hartlepool United did not expect. After being broken through by Salah on the wing several times, no one thought that Salah would choose to pass the ball. Vardy scored his first league goal for Notts County, and Notts County led 1:0 away.

Another lightning goal. Notts County scored in just the 4th minute of the game. The teams in the English League One had no way to deal with Notts County's breakthrough at the beginning. Notts County scored a goal before 20 minutes in every game, and even scored more than one goal in 20 minutes in some games. Who can stop Notts County's offensive front line? Perhaps only Brentford, the favorite to be promoted, can do it."

Finally a goal was scored. Vardy scored his first open play goal in the league in his fourth league game. He accelerated and slid, but stopped in front of the corner flagpole. As I said before, the home corner flagpole will never be spared, but the away corner flagpole will not be touched randomly. After standing up, Vardy still couldn't hide his excitement. He made a gun gesture with both hands and shot at the ground. In the

5th minute of the game, Notts County pressed forward.

Maguire touched the ball in the backcourt.

After receiving the ball, Niemann, the full-back, passed two people and made an inverted triangle pass.

Salah took the opportunity to volley the ball.

The ball passed through the small door of central defender Peter Hartley and penetrated the hands of goalkeeper Flinders.

One minute later, Salah scored and Notts County led 2:0.

Salah ran to the sidelines with his hands raised.

Opposite him were the angry home fans.

The Pharaoh reigned over Victoria Park.

Zhou Xu didn't have to adjust his tactics again, or in other words, the opponent's defense was broken through again.

"It's Salah again, it's always Salah. The Egyptian has scored 5 goals this season and this is his 5th game. This Egyptian from the Egyptian Premier League Mokoulun does not seem to have shown that he is not suitable for the English League, or at least the English League has not adapted to Salah. The Pharaoh of Egypt has once again arrived in Notts County."

Egyptian Pharaoh, this was the name reported by a small newspaper that mainly reported entertainment news under Zhou Xu's instruction. Unexpectedly, the commentators on the scene also knew this nickname.

"Niang, the defensive midfielder, was a little dizzy after being penetrated by Mane. This uncalm foul gave Notts County a free kick, and he himself received a yellow gem card. Pogba took the free kick. Did he want to shoot? Pogba shot! It was almost there. The quality of this shot was very high, but goalkeeper Flinders was also very involved. He saved the ball. This was a corner kick."

"As the first half ended, Notts County held a two-goal advantage. Hartlepool United head coach Monkhouse had to make adjustments, otherwise, the three points in this game would be lost to the wind. went."

Zhou Xu didn't say anything at halftime, only encouragement. The team was 2:0 ahead and the situation was fully suppressed. There was no reason to undermine the players' confidence.

During the halftime break, because after the game ended today, August 20, The second round of the League Cup will be played on August 23 at Rotherham's home stadium, the New York Stadium, so Zhou Xu decided to change players at half-time. Zhou Xu also hopes to go further in the League Cup. His idea is to draw lots The teams drawn to the Premier League should at least try the intensity of the Premier League team.

Maguire rested, Edwards played, Fred and Wang Chu also played, and the French black twins Kanter and Pogba took a rest.

The second half started quickly. Zhou Xu looked at Monkhouse in the home team's coaching area. How would you adjust? Before Monkhouse's adjustment had any effect, Vardy scored in the 48th minute of the game.

After Chu received the pass from Fred, he sent a through ball. The Hartlepool United players seemed to have not come out of the halftime break. No one blocked Wang Chu's pass. Mane's ball was very comfortable. His The cross pass allowed Vardy to score twice in front of the goal.

This time he chose to slide to celebrate. He used himself as a glider and slid all the way from the penalty area to the edge of the court, followed by Mane. So he became the bottom of the Notts County players.

With the score 3:0, Zhou Xu sat back on the coaching bench. Now that he no longer had to direct, he was ready to study his next opponent.
