Chapter 16 The Footsteps of the New Season
Gao Bo was not surprised by defeating a fifth-level team. What made Gao Bo excited is that from this game he saw the potential of this team in the future!
This set of tactics was placed in 2008. It can be said to be quite advanced football tactics. With the players at hand, Gao Bo is confident that all English teams will be surprised by Luton.
The team’s second warm-up match was a week later. The team came to Brighton, a coastal city in southern England. Here, they will challenge the League One team Brighton!
It is not easy to be able to contact a team in the first division as a warm-up opponent. After all, Luton is now the least promising second division team, and the Seagull Brighton is considered the most promising this season. One of the Premier League teams in the English Champions League.
This is a team that is also among the best in the first division!
Although this game is not a closed game, it has not attracted media attention. The focus of the English media is now on the Super League. Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid have just won a Champions League trophy for Manchester United. After the scandal, Chelsea ushered in the world champion coach Scolari.
And this warm-up match in Brighton will obviously not let the big media notice. But in the stands were sparsely seated some Brighton fans who came to watch the match, and in the media stand, there were also a few reporters-this is a local reporter in Brighton. The news about this warm-up match may only be both sides. Fans will be interested in it.
In fact, Brighton chose to warm up with Luton. It is possible that before the start of the season, find an underdog to warm up and use a big victory to welcome the new season.
But in this game Brighton obviously underestimated Luton's strength. In their home court, Luton's frontcourt pressure made Brighton very uncomfortable.
In the second minute of the game, Luton scored the goal.
This time it was the team's midfield interceptor expert Kanter. At that time, Brighton heavily pressed the offense. As a result, Kanter successfully intercepted the ball in the middle. After the midfield interception, Kanter brought the ball to the front of the penalty area. After seeing the opponent's defense line being pulled apart by Luton's two forwards, Kanter simply kicked himself.
A powerful long shot broke through the goalkeeper's ten fingers, helping Luton take the lead.
Gao Bo, who saw this goal on the sidelines, shines. In fact, Kanter's long-range shooting attribute has reached 63. Although this attribute is not too high, in the second division, this long-range shooting ability is already relatively good. Excellent. More importantly, Kanter is only seventeen years old this year. Maybe Kanter should strengthen his long-range practice?
Gao Bo stroked his chin and thought.
Kanter, who scored the goal, rushed to the sidelines and jumped into Gao Bo's arms.
For this black boy, Gao Bo was a kindness to him. He excavated him from the French amateur team and brought him to England across the Strait. He almost unconditionally trusted his ability, from training to Judging from the arrangement of the warm-up match, Gao Bo used Kanter as an absolute main force.
"Thank you, coach!!"
Kanter is not proficient in English, but this sentence is indeed from the heart.
Gao Bo laughed and touched the back of Kanter's head.
"This is what you deserve, boy, you have such strength!!"
"Also, remember to call me the boss in the future!!"
Gao Bo touched the top of his head and said.
"Yes! Boss!!!"
Kanter grinned, showing a row of big white teeth.
The sparse Brighton fans in the stands hadn't gotten hot, their team lost the ball. Brighton’s players were also a little confused. The opponent scored a goal just after the game started, which really made them feel a little depressed.
Originally, Brighton wanted to pick a soft persimmon to increase their confidence. Of course, they were not willing to easily lose this warm-up match.
So the next game, Brighton pressed heavily.
Luton's side is shrinking the defense, and the airtight defense in the middle makes Brighton's side only look for opportunities through the side.
And Luton's defense is not purely a defense with a bus. They put a lot of pressure on every ball carrier, so that even on the wing, Brighton can hardly organize an attack.
The second goal came soon.
Drinkwater took a joint steal with Mitchell Piran from the wing, and then took a look at the position of Vardy in the front court, and then he directly launched a long pass.
Pass the ball quickly behind the opponent, this is the routine that Luton has been emphasizing during this period.
Vardy's speed like a cheetah made him quickly throw away the Brighton central defender, and his handling was even more embarrassing. Facing the incoming ball behind him, Vardy adjusted his pace, and then hung his right foot directly on In the middle of the ball, volleyed a lift ball!
Faced with such a shot, Brighton's goalkeeper seemed helpless!
Two to zero! !
For this goal, Gao Bo is not too excited. He knows that Vardy has such an ability. When he is full of confidence, he can always score such a world wave.
John Aston next to him was stunned by Vardy's shot...
"At that moment, I seemed to see Van Basten..." This is what John Aston wrote in his autobiography years later.
At this time, John was just shocked by the goal so that his mouth was open so that he could lay an egg, and even his saliva would flow out. He didn't know it... Of course, John didn't write such a shameful thing. In his own autobiography.
Brighton, who played at home, fell behind by two goals, but they still have no good way to defend Luton. Kanter is quite active in the midfield. For Brighton, Kanter in the midfield is almost insurmountable. Of the sky.
And Luton’s third goal didn’t take long. In the 38th minute of the first half, captain Kevin Keane got a shot on the right side of the penalty area. He decisively kicked the ball. Shoot, the football enters from a blind spot.
In the second half, Gao Bo did not make a large-scale substitution. He just replaced Charlie Austin with high center Matt Schmidt. Gao Bo needs to form a tacit understanding between the three forwards. Gao Bo can use this season. The forwards are these three. Although it looks a little thin, Gao Bo doesn't have much resources on his hands, so he barely used it.
Matt Schmidt's characteristic is very obvious, that is his height, there are not many forwards on the football field with a height of 198 cm. But his shortcomings are also obvious, his mobility, his speed, and his mobility are far inferior to Charlie Austin.
But Gao Bo believes that Matt is a weapon for the team to face the intensive defense of the opponent. Many teams like to put a high center forward on the bench. This is not unreasonable. Luton's fourth goal came from Matt's header assist. Luton's counterattack directly found Matt's head, and then Matt's header hit the ball and sent the ball to Vardy, who was successful against offside. .
Facing the single-handed opportunity, Vardy easily pushed a blind spot and turned the score to four to zero!
The good performance of the warm-up match made Luton's morale soar, and then Luton also conducted several warm-up matches. Gao Bo also tried different formations and personnel combinations in this series of warm-up matches, so this series of warm-up teams There have been ups and downs in his performance.
However, warm-ups have always been used to adjust the team's lineup and find problems, so Gao Bo does not care about the results of the warm-up match.
What he really needs is victory in the official game!
With the passage of time, the pace of the new season has also been coming.
