The coaching career started as a college team coach

When Wei Le walked into the stadium, he was facing the front of the TIFO. Wei Le looked at his portrait in the TIFO on the stands and was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Before this, Todd, a fan who had a close relationship with the Wolves, and Wei Le revealed that the Wolves fans would have a big event for this game, so that they could look forward to it. Unexpectedly, this "event" was actually related to him!

Wei Le walked to the front of the stadium excitedly and bowed deeply to the fans.

He couldn't think of any other way to express his excitement.

He makes a living from football, and football is not just an 11-on-11 sport, but also has to do with the millions of fans outside the stadium. They support the Wolves and Wei Le, so Wei Le has to give an answer.

The best way to give an answer is to live up to their expectations and achieve good results.

"You have seen the TIFO too." Wei Le said, "It's spectacular."

Now there are still a few minutes before the game. Wei Le stands in the center of the locker room, in the position he is familiar with, and the players surround him, sorting out their equipment while listening to his speech.

"The fans have prepared so much for us, which is their support and recognition for us."

"But this recognition should not be one-sided, we should also give back to them. There is only one way for us to give back to them, that is to make them happy with victory!"

"Before becoming the head coach, I was also a fan, an ordinary fan who couldn't be more ordinary. What fans want is actually very simple, that is, they hope that after a week of hard work, they can come to the familiar football field and see their familiar team win."

"That's all."

"But for this goal, they can jump up and down for a whole game, and they don't feel tired even if their voices are hoarse. They even spend their own money to make this TIFO just to express their support."

"Let's not let them down."

Wei Le said very seriously, and the players' expressions were also very firm. They can feel these words. Wolverhampton is a small city, without so many people.

But their love for football is not inferior to those big cities.

They are willing to hang the flag of Wolves at their doorsteps, paint their walls yellow, and draw portraits of players on the walls.

Football has become a part of Wolverhampton.

Match day is a festival for the people of Wolverhampton.

"We have an advantage in the score, so I only ask you to be 'calm'."

"As we said in the preparation meeting this morning, Marseille will launch an attack in the first minute of the game. The offensive firepower you will face in this game will be more fierce than the last game."

"Therefore, no matter what happens, you must stay calm."

"Reduce aggressive actions, reduce unnecessary mistakes, no matter what happens, even if the score is tied, don't lose your composure, as long as the time is not over, we have hope of winning."

The time is almost up, and the electronic watch hanging in the locker room shows that there are only one or two minutes before the players enter the field.

Wei Le took a deep breath and said, "After the match with Everton a few days ago, I was a little entangled and a little unconfident about this second round. But Allardyce said something to me, which made me firm up."

"Perhaps, the title of the second round of the semi-finals is really a bit stressful, so you should put aside this title."

"More than 20 first-team players of Wolves have gradually come together since last year. Some come and some leave. Now, we have reached the peak of our strength."

"Every peak has its past; I dare not guarantee whether we can still achieve such results next season, and I don’t know how long I will be with you as the head coach."

"Since everything in the future is uncertain, let’s take a look at the present."

"Since there is still time, let our youth storm let more people cheer and applaud us!"

Beijing time 3:05, London time 20:05, the game officially started.

Compared with the previous match, the starting lineup of Wolves has been adjusted.

As for the goalkeeper, substitute goalkeeper Rudy was called upon to play in this important match; the defenders from left to right are Tierney, Ruben Dias, Maguire and Kounde.

In the midfield, Wei Le still chose the 4-2-3-1 formation with two defensive midfielders in this game, and the two defensive midfielders are Rodri and Dendoncker.

The attacking midfielder is Van der Beck who has returned from injury and is in good shape.

On both sides of the wing, the left side is played by the recent performanceGonçalves is outstanding, and on the right is Bowen, a speedy winger who is good at both offense and defense. The center forward is Jota.

Marseille's formation is still 4-2-3-1.

John Bailey is the goalkeeper, Amavi is the left back, and Bouna Sarr is the right back.

The center back position is the captain, Brazilian center back Gustavo and French center back Rami.

In the midfield, Sanson and the young Maxime Lopez are still the choices of head coach Rudi Garcia, Payet is the attacking midfielder, Tovan, who scored a handball goal in the last game, is the right winger, and Ocampos is the left winger.

The center forward is Germain.

On the Marseille side, the continued absence of the main goalkeeper Mandanda also forced the substitute goalkeeper John Bailey to continue to take the lead. This is a duel between substitutes.

At the same time, in the right back position, Wei Le lacks Doherty, while Marseille lacks Japanese full-back Hiroki Sakai, which also brings some personnel adjustments to the head coaches of both sides.

After the game started, Marseille's performance was completely different from that of most of the previous game, as if they had changed teams. In the 6th minute of the game, Dendoncker had to bear a yellow card because of his defense against Payet.

It also gave Marseille a chance for a free kick on the right.

Payet passed the ball into the penalty area, and Ocampos flanked from the back point on the left side.

But fortunately, this time, Wolves had trained for set pieces in advance. The reason for Towan's "handball goal" before was that Wolves lost the flexible Marseille midfielder at the back point during the set-piece defense stage.

This time, Ocampos didn't touch the ball, and the ball flew directly out of the baseline.
