The biggest fanatic in football

January 17, Saturday.

Today is obviously the match day of the 26th round of the league, but the King's Turf Stadium looks particularly deserted in the afternoon.

Since he will go to London to challenge Tottenham in four days, Adele adopted a drastic rotation strategy in this league with clearly differentiated strengths and weaknesses. Fuller, Smith, Akinfenwa, Dubis, Boorman, Phillips, etc.

All veterans got a chance to rest.

Everyone expressed understanding. After all, their opponent in this round was the relegation team ranked third from the bottom in the standings, Carlisle United.

This team only scored 24 points in the first 25 rounds of the league. They scored 29 goals in the first round and conceded 46 goals in the second round. There is no doubt that this team is the favorite experience package of substitute players.

Connolly and Frampton, two veteran forwards, plus Rigg, Porter and other post-85 backbones, led Lee Polo, Aziz, Reeves, Suitland, Osraja, and Kennedy.

, Sweeney and a group of people born in the 1990s were excitedly preparing to kill the relegated fish belly, but unexpectedly they hit the steel plate!

Frampton took advantage of the home team's unstable defense to score first blood in the 17th second. Everyone thought this would be the prelude to a massacre.

But the iron barrel formation that Carlisle United then put up made it clear that they did not want to be the target of a tragedy!

Their attitude actually aroused the bloody spirit of the Kuang Gang soldiers.

From a certain perspective, a football match is like a rape. The more the little girl lying underneath resists and struggles, the more it arouses the interest and motivation of the perpetrator!

Almost all members of Wimbledon pressed forward and launched a wild bombardment against the home team!

Lee Polo was even more logical, frequently coming in from the back to participate in the offense. When the offense reached a stalemate, he even became the team's third center and did not leave the penalty area for half a day!

Is there anything wrong with this?

The first half was almost over, and Carlisle didn't even have a decent attack, and the number of shots on goal was a pitiful 0!

Adre even felt that his defense was completely ineffective, and even the goalkeeper was redundant!

Speaking of goalkeepers, in order to prevent him from missing the highlight of the game against Liverpool last time due to a cold, Shea added a lot of activity to himself. Not only did he do several sets of leg raises and frog jumps from time to time, but he also performed short-distance turnaround runs in the penalty area.

, even "taking time out of his busy schedule" to interact with the home team fans in the stands.

"James, do we have the confidence to beat Tottenham?"

"I don't like hearing what you are saying. No matter how strong Tottenham are, can they compare to Liverpool?"

"Well, Liverpool is currently ranked ninth, and Tottenham is fifth!"

"...If you don't know how to chat, then don't talk!"

But even with such an overwhelming offensive, it still failed to destroy the home team's defense.

Lee Polo was extremely helpless. In order to restrain his header ability, Carlisle United directly sent out "two guardians" to completely surround him!

Don't you like to run unexpectedly?

Now you have two strong men with you, where can you run?

These two defensive players, both taller and heavier than him, not only stared at his every move, but even just stretched out two pairs of arms to lock him in the circle!

When the first half was about to enter stoppage time, Carlisle United suddenly had a counterattack opportunity. It was also their first official attack of the game, directly piercing Wimbledon's 45-minute empty goal.

city!

Although Xie A has been warming up, his two fists are ultimately unable to defeat the four-handed opponent. Facing the attack of the home team's double ghosts, he can only raise the flag and surrender!

1:1!

When it comes to relegation from the next round, every point is extremely precious, especially when facing the most popular title!

Carlisle United, whose morale was boosted, did not relax at all in the second half. Instead, they took advantage of Wimbledon's opportunity to regain the lead and launched continuous counterattacks, breaking through the visiting team's gate in the 68th and 81st minutes respectively, expanding the score to 3:

1!

Their tactics were by no means simple, and their defense was by no means barbaric. The statistics of 21 fouls and 6 yellow players in the game spoke for themselves, but they had the last laugh!

Wimbledon had a whopping 71% of the ball possession in the away game, resulting in a total of 18 shots, 12 corner kicks, and 8 frontcourt free kicks, but these data were of no use in the face of a defeat!

Because the result of the game has been determined, the score of 1:3 is more important than all tactics and superficial strength!

After this defeat, they had to accept this result:

Since entering 2015, they have only achieved 1 draw and 2 losses in three English League Two games, and have not won any of them!

Could it be...that this is the price of defeating Liverpool?

-

"Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy, it's just a defeat, it's no big deal."

In the locker room after the game, assistant coach Cox was still comforting the players:

"In this round of the league, Wycombe Wanderers and Burton, who are ranked second and third, were both tied by their respective opponents. Our lead is still 11 points, and the initiative to advance to the league is still firmly in our hands.

, so there’s no need to be too nervous.”

The players cheered up a little after hearing the consolation.

However... at the end of the half-way period of the league, Wimbledon's lead in the standings reached up to 17 points, claiming to have "secured the league championship". Now it was suddenly reduced to 11 points, which still makes people feel a little uneasy.

Head coach Adele even started to criticize himself:

"Sorry, boys. As a head coach, I must admit that I made careless mistakes in these league games.

Leading the league standings for a long time, coupled with defeating top league teams such as Manchester United, Southampton, and Liverpool, made me feel a little lost. After seeing Carlisle United's ranking, I did have a feeling of '

I had the illusion that I could win even with the youth team, but the cruel reality made me sober."

He took a breath and looked at all the players with a sincere and serious face:

"I hope everyone can remember that for Wimbledon, ensuring promotion to the league is always the most important goal this season. In the remaining 12 rounds, we will definitely encounter more difficult obstacles than today.

, but we can never make the same mistake again!”

"yes, boss!"

He saw determination on the faces of all the players and received an enthusiastic response.

Li Polo also clenched his fists and nodded repeatedly.

Indeed, the team was playing very smoothly in the past period.

A wave of fifteen consecutive victories, triumphant songs in all competitions, it almost feels like "God will kill God if he blocks it, and Buddha will destroy Buddha if he blocks it". This kind of emotion became even higher after the high-profile elimination of Liverpool, which once made the crazy gang members

Fans all have the illusion that "we can play in the Premier League next season."

【It’s time to calm down!】

[You still have to be down-to-earth and take one step at a time!]

Then he saw the head coach also smiled with relief.

Adele nodded:

"Tomorrow morning, we will study again how to win against Tottenham!"

The players who looked determined just now and were ready to attack the league with all their strength suddenly collapsed!

[We agreed to calm down and face reality?]

【Why are you still thinking about winning against Tottenham?】
