Football King Bale

Just after finishing the make-up match against Fulham, Tottenham rushed to Wigan City in Manchester without stopping. At noon on the 20th, they will face Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium.

Because Tottenham will participate in the League Cup final at Wembley on the last day of this month, the Premier League has deliberately adjusted Tottenham's schedule. In the next 27th and 28th rounds of the Premier League, their games started first.

Because when the two sides met at White Hart Lane in the first round of this season, Wigan suffered the worst loss in the Premier League, which made Wigan feel deeply humiliated. After that game, Wigan players took the initiative to use money to subsidize Wigan fans who went to watch the away game as an apology for the disastrous defeat.

Before the game, Wigan shouted the slogan of revenge and decided to stop Tottenham at home.

Nowadays, Tottenham are in a fierce battle with Chelsea and Manchester United in the standings, and there is a possibility of winning the championship. Wigan decided to teach Tottenham a lesson at home, destroying their hopes of winning, and avenging the first round defeat.

………………

Because there is another match in the 28th round of the Premier League in the middle of next week, and then the League Cup final on Sunday, Lao Lei decided to make a larger rotation of personnel in these two games.

However, Tottenham's formation is still the inherent 442, with goalkeeper Gomez and the four backs being Azu Héctor, Dawson, Ledley King and Joel Luca; in the four midfielders, Bell and Palacios is on the wings, Modric and Huddlestone are in the middle, and the double forward is a combination of Crouch and Defoe.

This is almost Tottenham’s entire main lineup!

Lao Lei's plan is to ensure the victory against Wigan, and then wait for the home game in midweek, use the substitute lineup to play Everton, let the main lineup rest and prepare for the League Cup final next Sunday.

After the game against Fulham, Bell drew three more experience cards, one for Cesc Fabregas, Vieira and Anelka.

Now, Bell has more than ten experience cards in his hand, which can be redeemed. As a left midfielder, the experience cards currently in Bell's hands are not suitable, but relatively speaking, Lampard's experience cards are relatively better. As for Vieira and Fabregas, although these two are also very strong, they are both famous for their organization and are not suitable for their positions, so he simply used their experience cards and Lampard's to exchange them. Got a two-star Lampard experience card.

After the game started, although Wigan wanted to avenge the first round, their strength was indeed limited and they were completely at a disadvantage against Tottenham.

Moreover, Tottenham not only had the advantage on the field, they also quickly took the lead in the score.

In the 27th minute of the game, Bell broke through Wigan's defense on the left and sent a precise cross, which accurately found Defoe near the near post. The ball was passed comfortably and Defoe easily scored the ball into Wigan's goal.

Wigan players protested to referee Willy, who believed that Defoe's goal was offside, but Willy upheld the original decision.

Tottenham took the lead away from home. However, slow motion showed that at the moment when Bell passed the ball, Defoe's body did stretch out half of his body. This goal was suspected of being offside.

Of course, in that flash of lightning, it is very difficult for the referee to make a completely accurate judgment. In fact, even the protesting Wigan players were not completely sure that Defoe was offside. They just made a routine protest under that situation.

………………

Amid the cheers of the home fans, Wigan did not become conservative just because Tottenham scored a goal. They continued to attack Tottenham.

In fact, Martinez's team has always paid more attention to offense. As a team that has struggled near the relegation line for a long time,

Wigan play attacking football. But while Wigan's offense is gorgeous, their defense has too many loopholes. The result is that they often lose by big margins.

After 26 rounds of the Premier League, Wigan also ranked second in the Premier League's goal-conceding list with 50 goals conceded, only a little better than Hull City, which conceded 51 goals.

As the Premier League team with the most firepower, the last thing Tottenham is afraid of is the team that attacks them. Therefore, in the next game, the two sides went back and forth with sparks flying.

However, neither side scored again until the end of the first half. For Wigan, it is because their players are limited in strength and it is difficult for them to play a threatening offense. Tottenham's side is because Defoe and Crouch on the front line seem to have some problems, and they waste opportunities created by the team again and again.

Shortly after the start of the second half, Tottenham suffered a blow. It was not that they were scored by Wigan, but that their captain Ledley King was injured.

Although he is still less than thirty years old, Ledley King's body is getting worse day by day. This is all caused by too many injuries.

Ledley King's biggest weakness is injuries. He has serious knee injuries and has missed more than ten games this season due to injuries. Even when healthy, Ledley King spends most of the week recuperating and rehabbing, rarely participating in training, so as to ensure that he can play on weekends.

Ledley King was injured unexpectedly, and Lao Lei had to replace him with Bassoon.

………………

The captain left the field due to injury and will definitely miss next Sunday's League Cup final. This has caused huge psychological fluctuations among Tottenham players. They are worried that they will also be injured in the game and miss the League Cup final.

If they had scruples in their hearts, they would naturally show up in their actions. Therefore, in the next game, Tottenham players were a little afraid of confronting Wigan players.

The situation on the field is gradually tilting towards Wigan.

Martinez realized there was an opportunity and decided to take a chance.

In the 56th minute of the game, Martinez replaced the Honduran international Hendry Thomas, who was a guest defender in this game, with the young player Moses, who had just transferred to Wigan in the winter window, and the formation was changed to 343.

After the change of formation, Wigan's offense became stronger and stronger, and they once suppressed Tottenham in the half court. In desperation, Lao Lei had to replace Defoe with Kranjca, allowing Palacios to return to the midfielder position and work with Huddlestone to block Wigan's attack. Tottenham also changed their formation 451.

The situation on the field was really surprising. Wigan completely suppressed the powerful Tottenham. Unfortunately, although Wigan's offensive was strong, it was in vain.

Martinez continued to make substitutions. In the 76th minute of the game, he replaced Dridier, who had an average performance, with the extremely fast former Chelsea winger Scott Sinclair to continue to strengthen the attack.

Martinez hopes to use Sinclair's speed and breakthrough to break down Tottenham's defense and change the situation on the field.

………………

The situation on the field did change quickly, but it was not Wigan who scored, but Tottenham!

Wigan were eager to equalize the score, but as time passed, there was less and less time left for them. This also made Wigan players more and more anxious and their formation became more and more advanced.

The excessive forward pressing position means that there is a huge gap in their defense. As long as your opponent sees it and takes advantage of it, it will be very dangerous.

Modric is a player with an extremely wide vision on the field. In addition, Bale, who uses Lampard's experience card, has an equally good vision. Both of them keenly discovered the loopholes in Wigan's defense.

Although the two people had a good understanding of each other without much verbal communication, they both understood each other's thoughts with just a few simple glances.

After Tottenham's defense blocked Wigan's attack again, Modric received the ball from Palacios and made a precise long pass of more than 30 meters, penetrating Wigan's midfield. Two lines of defense.

When Bale asked Palacios for the ball from Modric, he had already started to move forward. By the time Modric started to pass the ball, he had already run behind the Wigan midfield defense.

In the competition with Wigan's three defenders who were not too fast, Bell easily got rid of them and took the lead in catching up with the ball.

Facing the attacking Wigan goalkeeper Kirkland, Bell calmly made a pendulum pass and broke through him. All that's left is for him to push the ball into Wigan's empty net.

In the 84th minute of the game, Modric passed through the ball, and Bell forced his way past Wigan's two defense lines. Facing the attacking Kirkland, he went to the meeting alone and easily pushed the shot into the empty goal!

………………

Being two goals behind made Wigan players even more desperate, and they continued to attack Tottenham.

In the last game at White Hart Lane, Tottenham were beaten 10:1. If they lose again today, how will they face the fans who support them?

Even if you lose, you must lose with dignity!

It is better to die standing than to live on your knees!

Until the game entered stoppage time, Wigan was still attacking relentlessly, hoping to score a goal, save face, and give an explanation to the home fans.

However, what greeted them and all the Wigan fans present was Tottenham's third goal!

In the 93rd minute of the game, and in the last minute of injury time, Tottenham stole Wigan again in the backcourt and immediately launched a quick counterattack.

Bale and Kranjca moved forward quickly on both wings, while the center composed of Modric, Palacios and Huddlestone also used passes to advance quickly.

When approaching the Wigan penalty area, Huddlestone saw that Bell had inserted himself into Wigan's goal from the ribs, and quickly sent an overhead pass.

Bell, who broke in at high speed, chose to header the ball, but was saved by Kirkland, who performed well. Bell's second reaction was very quick. He took a step across, intercepted the ball saved by Kirkland, and gave it a slight push. This time, even if Kirkland was extremely capable, he would be unable to stop Bell.

Bell scored twice, helping Tottenham expand the score to 3:0!
