The corner kick was still taken by Walter Prowse.

This ball did not enter the penalty area, but flew outside the penalty area! It seems that this is a special tactic, where there is no one near Steven Davis!

Steven Davis stopped the ball, made a slight adjustment and then took a long shot! But this shot was obviously too hasty, there were people in front of Steven Davis, and he could only rely on his sense to judge where the goal was.

This shot flew directly out of the bottom line without any surprise, and there was still some distance from the goal. At least Martinez didn't even make a save.

"...Steven Davis's shot was slightly off." Martin Taylor said, "This ball was too hasty."

The TV broadcast was still broadcasting his shot, but when the screen switched back, Edwards was running forward with the ball! !

Martin Taylor was at the Wembley Stadium. He didn't need to watch the TV broadcast, but could broadcast according to the situation on the field. But the audience needed to listen to a few seconds of "narration"!

"Goal kick! The ball boy quickly threw the ball to Martinez. The goalkeeper saw that there were no opposing players in the penalty area, so he quickly passed the ball to Ruben Dias."

"Dias kicked the ball to Rodri, who passed it directly without stopping! The ball was passed to the left side, and Godfrey received the ball!"

"The Southampton players just started to defend, and they haven't retreated yet! Godfrey dribbled the ball, changed direction, accelerated, and got rid of Walter Prowse, then passed the ball diagonally to Edwards."

"Edwards was blocked, Romeu would not let him pass, but he could Pass the ball to Jota! A very smart choice. Jota retreated from the forward position to receive the ball. Edwards took advantage of the situation and completed a position change with him and rushed forward. "

"Jota stopped the ball with his back to the goal, and then passed the ball to... diagonally behind! How did he see it! Southampton's left back couldn't touch the ball. Now Almiron got the ball. He dribbled inside and then passed it diagonally into the penalty area! ! ! "

"Van der Beek! ! ! ! He ran all the way from the midfield into the penalty area. He received Almiron's cross and then shot-"

Van der Beek almost put all his strength into this shot! Fraser Forster stretched out his hand in vain, but the ball flew through his legs at high speed!!!

"The ball went in! ! ! ! "

Martin Taylor slapped the table and shouted loudly!

But the next second, he saw that Van der Beek didn't seem to be very surprised. He didn't even celebrate, but was a little annoyed.

"Wolves scored a goal with their first shot - oh, that's not the case, the assistant referee raised the flag and indicated offside. Maybe Almiron was offside."

The TV broadcast came, Almiron was not offside, but in the penalty area, in the chaos, Van de Beek started early and ran half a body away. The assistant referee saw this half body distance clearly.

"Well, what a pity." Martin Taylor shook his head, "I thought this would be the turning point of the game, but it looks like the first goal may come later."

Lineker was very concerned about the process of scoring goals, "Let's see how the goal happened."

The director directly gave the whole process from the goal kick.

For this ball, when goalkeeper Martinez found Ruben Dias nearby, Rodri had already started to retreat and run. While running, he also looked up and observed.

And Godfrey was already moving forward secretly. He knew this was a good opportunity. He turned around and met Rodri's eyes. Next, before Rodri got the ball, he had already adjusted his body to the left, ready to pass the ball directly.

This long pass was also very accurate, Godfrey could stop the ball and sprint forward directly, playing to his speed advantage. Rodri did not stop, he continued to move forward. If Godfrey could not see Edwards' position, Rodri could also be a passing option.

"Rodri's movement is really smart." Lineker praised, "He has a maturity that does not belong to his age. He does not play rashly at all. Any decision is made after full observation and thinking."

Edwards ran forward, and Van der Beck was already moving towards the penalty area. When Jota passed the ball horizontally to Almiron, Van der Beck was already at the forefront!

At this time, Japanese central defender Yoshida Maya was still having a headache looking at Jota in front of him. He knew that Stephens behind him was also trying his best to limit Edwards, so when Van der Beck rushed past him, Yoshida Maya did not even have time to turn around and pull his jersey.Van der Beck rushed too fast.

Or, the two central defenders were too slow.

Their negligence actually resulted in an offside operation, which really makes people feel... speechless.

"Wolves' counterattack was very sharp. One counterattack almost penetrated Southampton's goal. On the contrary, Southampton, who besieged for more than 40 minutes, still failed to open the situation."

Lineker took over the conversation, "It is better to say that Wolves' offense is more efficient. They will not launch an offensive blindly, not for the sake of attacking, but to choose the best offensive means for scoring goals."

"In this ball, Wolves quickly launched a counterattack, seized the opponent's defensive weaknesses, and created a numerical advantage on the opponent's back line. When Southampton players piled up in the other half, Wolves' counterattack was fatal!"

Romeu didn't even have time to run to the Southampton penalty area for this ball, and Van der Beck had already shot. When the goal kick came out, Romeu had just walked out of the Wolves' penalty area.

The two central defenders were relatively far outside, so they just caught up with Edwards's breakthrough speed.

"If the goal was scored, the ball boy should be credited." Martin Taylor concluded.

Lineker smiled and nodded, "That's true. If it weren't for him, this ball wouldn't have been played at all!"

Nothing happened in the remaining two minutes of the regular time of the first half. The fourth official announced that the injury time in the first half was only three minutes. In the calm, both sides returned to the locker room.

"What's the difference from usual?" Wei Le asked the players with a smile.

"Actually, there is no difference." Jota scratched his face.

Ruben Dias passed by Jota and punched him lightly, "It doesn't make any difference to you. It almost exhausted us brothers."

"Well done, brothers!" Wei Le clapped his hands, and when everyone sat down, he smiled and praised everyone.

"You will probably have to face similar pressure in the second half. So, Ruben, Connor, you have worked hard!"

"I am not tired?" Martinez interrupted.

"You are also tired!" Wei Le added unhappily.
