Fox in the Penalty Area

Not long after Hu Lai scored, the first half ended.

So He Feng is right, this ball is very important and of great significance.

If Leeds City enters the intermission with a score of 0:1, coach Clark will consider the premise of falling behind when considering tactics. But now he only needs to think about how to overtake the score, not equalize the score.

The starting point is different, and the requirements for the team are different.

But one thing will not change, that is, after the Leeds City players returned to the locker room, they were severely scolded by the head coach Clark.

"...What are you doing? Do you really think you have already won the league championship? Don't say that the league is not over yet, let's say that we are still behind the Stan Park Rangers! Damn it! You are acting like this How is it different from the Stan Park Rangers who sleepwalked in the last round when they heard we won?! What reason do you have to look down on them?!"

Clark walked up and down the locker room, yelling at the players.

The players all lowered their heads after being scolded by him, not even daring to look at it.

Through the final successful relegation last season and the rankings he led the team this season, Tony Clark has gained a high reputation in the hearts of the players. It's not like when he just took over the team, now everyone is willing to listen to him, and they won't feel angry when they are scolded...

"You have to know! What we are challenging is the giants in this country's league! They are a giant team with more than a hundred years of excellent tradition! We compete with such opponents. If you are lucky, you will definitely die without a burial! Why do you think that in the past 34 years, all the Premier League titles have been won by the BIG6? Just because they have money and can afford the best players? Stupid! That is because of others They are giants, they have enough experience and traditions to support them in the most dangerous moment! Were the giants the giants from the beginning? Of course not! The giants use one champion after another to fight against adversity It is accumulated from the experience of a bloody path!"

"We want to challenge such a team. If we can't do better than them, why should we win the championship? Just think about it with your brains?!"

Clark glared at the players in the locker room, and didn't show any mercy because Hu Lai equalized the score.

After all, Hu Lai's goal can't change the fact that the team played badly in the first half, it can only show that Leeds City's luck is not bad.

"Stan Park Rangers made a mistake after we won the game against Boscombe, so we have to make the same mistake to pay back? It's a football game, not a fucking medieval knight's duel! Hit me up spirit come,

I won't allow you to be so muddled in the second half! You are so close to making history... But if you miss the opportunity to make history because of your own stupidity, you will regret it for the rest of your life! I promise you! You will regret it! "

After scolding all the players, Clark began to arrange tactics for the team in the second half.

In fact, there are not many places where tactics can be adjusted. The biggest problem in this game is that the mentality of the Leeds City players is not right, so the tactics in the first half did not work out at all.

As long as they adjust their mentality and play according to the tactics arranged before the game, Leeds City still has a high chance of winning the game.

After all, there is a big gap between Abion's strength and Leeds City.

The last time the two teams met, Leeds City was away, and both beat Abion 2-0. At that time, the season had just started, and Leeds City was not yet in full strength.

Now, after a season of running-in, Kamara, Adams and Grist have basically fully integrated into the team, and the team's strength has been greatly strengthened. Otherwise, how can you wrestle with the Stan Park Rangers?

If they go all out and can't beat Abion at home, then don't even think about the league championship...

Of course, considering that Abion may shrink his defense, Clark still made some targeted adjustments.

※※※

"Although you lost the ball at the end of the first half, your performance was very good!"

Unlike Clark who turned on the "hairdryer mode" at halftime, Abion's head coach Kean Schiri was not stingy in praising the players in the locker room.

Originally, after Abien's early relegation, he had nothing to desire. But now they've found a whole new target.

"Guys, we probably didn't think before this game that we have the opportunity to be the key figure in deciding the title of this season's league title-as long as we can beat or draw Leeds away, then they are very likely. Can't win the league championship this season!"

After this round of the league, there are still two rounds left in the Premier League.

Stan Park Rangers host London Bridge in the next round of the league, and this game is not easy to play. But Leeds City's schedule is not much better - they challenge Tramed away in the next round.

So if Leeds City wants to surpass the Stan Park Rangers, today's game is the best opportunity.

After all, it seemed that Abion was much easier to deal with than Tramed.

If Leeds can't even beat Albion, don't expect them to beat Tramed away.

Therefore, Schiri said that Abion is the key figure in determining the ownership of the league championship, and he was not wrong.

"Many years from now, when people look back at this season of the Premier League title race, our name will be mentioned. But what they will say depends on how you played in the game. If Leeds beat us, they will Climbing to the top...the glory belongs to the city of Leeds, and we, Abion, are just a stepping stone! Which of you intends to be a stepping stone?!"

He asked loudly, looking around with wide eyes.

The Abion players in the locker room gasped: "No! We don't want to be stepping stones!"

"Then stick to the goal in the second half and don't let Leeds City score! Especially don't let Hu score! Otherwise, we will not only be the stepping stone for Leeds City to win the championship, but also the stepping stone for Hu to win the Premier League Golden Boot!"

Marvin Stones scored a goal in Athletic Manchester's 2-1 win over Boscombe that ended yesterday.

But Hu Lai also scored in today's game, so he still leads Stones by four goals.

With two rounds left in the league, the difference of four goals is already very large. If Hu Lai is allowed to score in the second half and the goal difference is widened to five goals or even more... then this season's The battle for the Golden Boot will also completely lose its suspense.

Whether it's the league championship or the Golden Boot, it all falls to Abion, an ordinary team.

It seems to be an arrangement of fate, let them choose where history goes.

※※※

After the start of the second half, everyone noticed that Abien had changed his tactics.

"They have shrunk their defense..." In front of the TV, Stan Park Rangers assistant coach Brown said after watching for a while, "Abion wants to directly defend the score of 1:1 to the end? This is for us That's great news!"

For Brown's surprise, Brooks was noncommittal: "If they can really do it...of course."

But whether Abien can really withstand Leeds City's crazy offensive in the second half, he has no idea.

This team is not good at defense, and they certainly have not done defensive training specifically for Leeds City's offense before.

Judging from the difference in tactics between the first half and the second half, it can also be seen that Abien wanted to keep the 1:1 score temporarily.

Therefore, Brooks has no idea whether Abion can withstand the attack of Leeds City.

※※※

"Abion has adjusted his tactics and started to defend more. The players played very concisely in the backcourt - if they have the ball, they will kick the football forward more. It is of course good to be able to counterattack. But if If they can’t play, they will definitely not let football stay in their half, even if they give Leeds City a foul in the backcourt, it doesn’t matter..."

He Feng and Yan Kang analyzed.

"This is not good news for Leeds City. Abien voluntarily gave up the ball, which seems to be a suicide. But in fact, for Abien, who is not as strong as Leeds City, this may be a problem instead. The right choice. The team can focus on putting the bus in front of the goal and concentrate on defending, rather than looking forward and backward and trying to hold the draw and then win..."

After hearing the analysis of the two narrators, Xie Lan turned to her husband and asked, "Is that so?"

Hu Lixin nodded with a serious face: "That's right."

"But isn't Leeds City known for its fierce offensive firepower?"

Leeds City, which has scored 77 goals in the league so far, is the team with the most goals in the Premier League this season, and its offensive firepower is the best in the Premier League.

"Actually, Abion only needs to be able to hold out for half an hour, and they really hope to score a point in the away game... As the game time is getting shorter and shorter, if Leeds City fails to score a goal, they will definitely panic. The mentality of the players will change. After the change, it is even more difficult to score goals..." Hu Lixin explained to his wife.

"Leeds City can't even score a goal in half an hour?" Xie Lan's eyes widened in disbelief.

"It's hard to say. Some things are hard to say clearly. It's like who would have thought that Stan Park Rangers would be chased down to a one-point lead when they were seven points ahead of Leeds City. This is..."

Xie Lan interrupted her husband: "I see, 'Footballs are round'..."

After she finished speaking, she curled her lips and continued to watch the game.

Hu Leila came out of the penalty area, received a pass from his teammate, and tried to shoot from a long distance. But this time, just as he caught the ball, he was stuck from behind by the Abion players. Let alone a long-range shot, he couldn't even turn his body.

I can only pass the football with my back to the attacking direction, otherwise I might lose the ball to him...

After he used a long-range shot to score in the first half, in the second half, Abien stepped up his defense against his long-range shots.

And because of the recovery of all members, Abien now has more people in and out of the penalty area to defend, and there will be no situation where he takes the ball outside the penalty area and the defensive players cannot be in place.

Unless he can retreat to the middle circle to shoot long shots... But the problem is that Hu Lai can't shoot at that distance at all!

"He also said that Hu can take more long-range shots... Now it seems that Schili has already considered this for us." Sam Randyll shook his head and sighed.

"Since it's a bus, of course we have to block our most threatening offensive players." Clark was not surprised.

"Now there are people in the restricted area, and there are people outside the restricted area. It's not easy for Hu to get free time..."

"Spaces change all the time, Sam." Clarke said, staring at Abion's penalty area. As for Kamara, his breakthrough and dribbling can create space."

Randyll didn't speak, just cast his eyes on Ismail Kamara on the court.

※※※

When Kamara was still playing in the French third league, he never imagined that he would have the opportunity to touch the Premier League championship trophy after just one season.

His life has undergone earth-shaking changes this season. He went from a nobody to a superstar... well, no "super" and no "giant", but he can barely be regarded as a "star".

Although it is still not as good as those real superstars, it is still a leap forward for him.

In fact, he still doesn't know how he, who was unknown in the French League 3, was attracted by a Premier League team.

But it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that his performance deserves the attention of the team.

When the team encounters difficulties, I have to stand up, just like Hu Lai, he always stands up when the team is in crisis, and leads us to victory with goals.

That was the case with that goal in the first half.

Without his ball, we would only be in a worse situation right now.

But because of that ball, Hu Lai is now trapped in the opponent's muscle jungle, with little room to display it.

He knew that a player like Hu Lai would always be targeted by defenders and trapped in a tight siege.

That's why I need to stand up at this time!

It's your turn, Ismail!

※※※

When Kamara received the ball from the wing, there were people in front of him.

Except for one Abion player who directly defended him, there were people inside and outside the penalty area, both from Abion and from Leeds City.

Because of Abien's bus, there is basically no room for Kamara to display his speed.

If he wanted to suddenly speed up and get rid of his opponent as usual, he could only wade the football into the crowd.

Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Kamara sneered in his heart: Who said I only have speed as a weapon?

Kamara, who has just come to the Premier League, has flashy feet and was once ridiculed as a "juggling player" on the Internet. Not only are his fancy moves redundant, but they don't do much good.

That's why he didn't perform well.

Later, after painful adaptation and adaptation, he finally found his own rhythm bit by bit: reducing redundant fancy moves, combining his own speed, choosing more concise and practical technical moves, turning himself into a sidewalk fast horse.

But this doesn't mean that Ismail Kamara, who was born in street football, can't play tricks!
