"... Jota, receiving a pass from Rodri, broke through the penalty area, passed one, shook off the second, and shot... The ball went in! Wolves took the lead! At Molineux, Wolves took the lead against Burnley!"

"... The corner kick was cleared, Almiron let Rodri deal with it, Rodri rushed up and shot!!! The ball went in!!! The football didn't stop until it hit the net. The second ball came, and Rodri's long shot expanded the Wolves' advantage!"

"... In the end, Wolves easily defeated Burnley with a score of 2-1. Burnley's face-saving goal at the last moment of the game failed to help them equalize the score. It seems that Wolves' victory will go one step further..."

"... The American Express Stadium ushered in the challenge of Wolves. The Wolves, who have been unstoppable recently, have ranked fifth in the league. If this ranking is maintained until the end of this season, they may even be able to play in the Europa League! But ahead of them, Chelsea and Arsenal are leading."

"... The first goal came so quickly! Bowen's through ball, Haaland turned sideways and led the ball into the penalty area, then adjusted to his left foot and pushed it into the far corner!"

"... The ball went in again! De Paul took a corner kick, Ruben Dias headed the ball and the ball went in!"

"In the end, Wolves continued their unbeaten record and took away 3 points away from home."

After finishing the league with Manchester City, time passed quickly. After winning the fifth round of the league, Wolves ended the not-so-tense schedule with 3 wins from the sixth to the eighth round of the league.

From the perspective of the entire league process, Wolves' record is five wins, one draw and two losses, and the current points are 16 points.

With the morale of defeating Manchester City, Wolves are unstoppable. The next game is the Europa League group match against Lyon. In the previous few games, Wolves basically did not fight hard, but this time against Lyon, Wolves must really take it seriously.

Facing Lyon's high-pressure attack, Wolves still put up a patient defense. After Genesio's Lyon came to Molineux Stadium, the game with Wolves was actually a 4-2-3-1 and 4-2-3-1 duel.

But there are also differences between 4-2-3-1.

The lineup is only the appearance, and the tactics are the connotation. The difference between the two teams in this game is that Wolves took the initiative to give up possession to Lyon. At the same time, Lyon did not choose to press high in the frontcourt, but mainly confronted Wolves in the midfield.

This was beyond Wei Le's expectations, because Lyon has always played high-pressure football. The problem is here. Lyon is no longer high-pressure, but strangles the opponent in the midfield like Wolves did last season.

After the game started, Wolves had an advantage in the early stages, but soon, the situation changed. A sharp counterattack almost broke through the Wolves' goal, and Martinez's diving save caught the ball in his arms.

Although Martinez acted careless and felt that it was very easy to save the ball, in fact, everyone who watched the game knew that this ball almost scored a goal.

Let alone changing someone to save the ball, even if Martinez tomorrow saves the ball, he will probably find it difficult to do it like this ball.

After Houssem Aouar stole the ball from Van der Beck, he directly passed the ball to Bertrand Traore on the right, and the latter took advantage of Tierney's forward space and directly broke through the ribs against the Wolves.

Even though Tierney started to return to defense at the first time, everything seemed too late. In the end, Ruben Dias filled the space and interfered with the latter's operation, forcing the latter to choose to shoot directly instead of passing.

But Botlan Traore's shot was still of very high quality.

When the ball passed, Wei Le felt something was wrong, but he was not sure whether it was a special case, just that the opponent played well in this attack.

Just like a saying in CSGO: Sometimes your opponent is just in good shape.

Frequent changes in tactics often do not produce good results, and Wei Le chose to wait and see. When the time came to the 26th minute, it was still the Wolves' frontcourt that lost the ball, and it was still Van der Beck who was surrounded and robbed. After struggling for a long time, he finally lost the ball.

Midfielder Tusart passed the ball forward, and Botlan Traore got the ball on the right side. After a wall-to-wall match with the front midfielder Fekir, he easily broke through Dendoncker, who could only knock him down.

But the referee hadn't blown the whistle yet, he raised his hands flat, signaling the game to continue! Because another player, Fekir, caught up first and poked the ball away before Dendoncker.

The attack hasLi!

Wolves are now in danger!

In the situation where the attack was favorable just now, Dendoncker was still lying on the ground and had not stood up. Rodri had already pressed forward, and the full-back Tierney was still behind Fekir. There were only three defenders, while Lyon had four players (excluding Traore who was knocked down) who could participate in the attack!

And Fekir's breakthrough to the middle made the three central defenders of Wolves form a dangerous reverse horseshoe!

(As shown in the middle picture of this chapter)

And now only one straight pass is needed, and Depay on the left side can break into the penalty area! And Fekir certainly did so. Depay wiped past Maguire in an instant, and the latter had no time to turn around.

The penalty area was right in front of him. Depay stopped the ball with his left foot first, and then he felt a truck on the left hit him!

"Beep!"

The referee pointed to the penalty spot, Depay stood up from the ground, and looked at Doherty who fouled him with a happy look on his face. The latter was still sitting on the ground. He already knew what would happen.

The referee reached into his pocket and pulled out his... red card!

The Wolves players had already surrounded him, but this kind of excuse often doesn't work. The referee calmly explained that it was a "DOGSO", which means ruining an obvious scoring opportunity.

Indeed, if it wasn't for Doherty, then Depay would have been able to face the goalkeeper directly. Doherty was the last player on the defense besides the goalkeeper.

Red card, there is basically no room for excuses for this ball. The only thing that can be said is that Doherty's action was actually just to stop Depay, and it happened that at that moment Depay pushed the ball to the left and Doherty didn't touch the ball at all.

"The ball went in! Fekir hit the ball to the right but Martinez dived to the left. Now, Lyon is leading by 1 goal away from home, and Wolves have to play with 10 people. They are now in a dangerous situation!"

"And the game has just passed 26 minutes!"
