Chapter 105 You guys are coming to the Premier League to fry fish!
"Zhang Zhi and I still feel a little unreal now, fans and friends, can you believe it? Li Mo scored a goal in the No.207 minute of the first half! This header is so beautiful, it perfectly shows Li Mo's talent, we all believe that Li Mo will have a good performance in the Premier League this season, but maybe no one thought that his first goal came so early and so wonderful!"

After Zhan Jun calmed down, he explained again, and at the moment in the live broadcast, Li Mo was surrounded by his teammates, celebrating excitedly in front of the visiting team's fan area.

Habusi fished the ball out of the goal and kicked it away as if venting, and then stood there with his hands on his hips, his face full of helplessness.

Wigan Athletic coach Martinez even lost his demeanor at the start of the game, and roared violently from the sidelines towards the field.

He didn't understand, maybe the tactical arrangement was wrong at the beginning, but why did his players behave so passively in the face of a newly promoted horse? !
It is very difficult for them to organize an attack in the backcourt, but the opponent's counterattack is getting sharper every time, and almost every counterattack can hit their hinterland.

Yes, they conceded more than 60 goals in the Premier League last season, the defense was bad, and the offense was even worse, but that was compared with other Premier League teams!

Playing a new Premier League team, how did they play like this?
"And that damn Speed!"

Martinez cursed secretly in his heart, lying so naturally, he is really not a kind person!
He is also a young coach in his 40s. How honest he is, he said that he wanted to play something different from last season, so he put on a three-four-three formation.

That Speed ​​said before the game that he would come to learn, but in the end he beat his team to death. Which team TM came to learn like this!
Martinez became more and more angry, and hurried back to the coach's bench to start re-working his tactics.

On the other side, Speed ​​was in a completely different mood at this moment. If there were no live broadcast cameras, he would have wanted to laugh wildly.

He admitted that he was imitating the Portuguese maniac in the Premier League a few years ago.

It is a very common routine to set off smoke bombs before the game. If you want to blame, blame the "old-timers" before.

He, Speed, was playing the leftovers from those old-timers, and he didn't lie.

Their Sheffield United team did come here with the mentality of learning, but after learning, they must learn from it. They must not be like Wigan Athletic, who can't be confused about their position.

I will send you a defeat now, to help Wigan Athletic recognize your own strength early, so that it will be convenient for you to adjust as soon as possible, isn't it!

Li Mo's goal was expected by Speed. With such an efficient counterattack, Li Mo, who is the core of the team's offense, will get enough opportunities, and Li Mo did not let him down. Goal scored 10 minutes ago.

Then, the game will be very easy to play. Against Wigan Athletic, it is how you want to handle it.

Speed ​​was thinking about the next tactics, and he also restrained his smile a little bit. It's not good to be too rampant. It's better to be low-key, low-key~
After the celebration, the players of Sheffield United had a bottom line in their hearts.

Football is like this. After getting a goal lead early, psychological stability is also an advantage. The team's tactics are not wrong, and the leading brother is also strong. Then there is nothing to say. According to the tactics arranged by the head coach before the game Don't worry, just kick it.

After Wigan Athletic's players kicked off again, they found that Sheffield United's players didn't seem to press past halftime anymore.

Speed ​​made a tactical gesture on the sidelines, and the Sheffield United players quickly shrunk their formation. This time, it was a normal half-court defensive formation.

The four defenders and the four midfielders all retreated in their own half of the court honestly, and Vardy retreated to the center circle. Only Li Mo was alone in Wigan Athletic's half, acting as a counterattack arrow.

Martinez was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he saw the change of Sheffield United.

"Knock Nima!"

Spitting out a series of Spanish national curses, Martinez gave Speed ​​a hard look, only to see that Speed ​​was talking to the assistant coach with a smile on his face, which made his blood pressure rise again.

After taking the lead, Speed ​​did not allow the team to press the frontcourt or hold the ball in the midfield. Instead, he let the players honestly play defense.

This time it is not a "flexible" defense, but a serious defensive counterattack.

Hey, you want to play against each other, and you want to equalize the score early?
Speed ​​will not give Wigan Athletic this opportunity.

The tactics before the game were very clear. As long as they scored a goal in the first half, they would switch to a real defensive counterattack.

As long as Wigan Athletic is behind, they have to attack.

On the Sheffield United side, Montgomery is on the defensive end, Drinkwater is lagging behind, Matt Ridge is marking, and Medel is strong in sweeping. The defense of the four midfielders is good.

Especially Medel, his sweeping ability is simply amazing. He alone can make Wigan Athletic's offensive players suffer a lot.

And once the ball is stolen, Sheffield United has Li Mo, Vardy, two full-backs on the wing and Matt Ridge on the front line, and they also have a strong ability to drive the ball.

If the smoke bomb before the game was a conspiracy, then the current tactical change is a conspiracy.

Let you attack Wigan competitively, and if you have the ability, you can quickly attack and score a goal, but if you can't equalize the score for a long time, then it will be Sheffield United's counterattack time.

Naturally, Martinez saw Speed's tactical intentions at a glance. Putting Li Mo in the front is purely disgusting for Wigan Athletic.

Li Mo's strength has been fully demonstrated through nearly three and 10 minutes of on-court play, as well as that goal.

Now that Li Mo is in Wigan Athletic's half, Wigan Athletic's players will not dare to give full play when attacking.

It seemed to remind them all the time that in their half, Li Mo was still eyeing him, but don't let Li Mo find an opportunity. Let Li Mo score a goal, and they will be completely finished!

But there is no way, the attack still has to be attacked. The players of Wigan Athletic started to attack with a guarded attitude, but every time the ball was intercepted, they would retreat immediately, for fear of Sheffield United's counterattack. .

At this time, Drinkwater is not in a hurry, hey, if you are so afraid, then we will not fight back at all.

After stabilizing the ball, after some transmission, even if the ball was lost again, Sheffield United dragged on for several minutes.

The rest of the first half was wasted like this. Wigan Athletic's offense was unable to get started, wasting energy in vain, and Sheffield United easily defended the score of 1-0.

During the intermission, Speed ​​quickly arranged the tactics for the second half and asked all the players to gather around:

"After this game, some media will definitely exaggerate that we are playing offensive football. They will talk about our tactics in the first three and 10 minutes of the game, so ah, we will use a complete second half to let the fans and more Look at the media, we are indeed a 'low-key' 'anti-anti' team, you guys, do you understand what I mean?"

Speed ​​said to his disciples with a smile. The players of Sheffield United looked at each other and immediately looked "understanding". Li Mo also gave Speed ​​a thumbs up.

Sure enough, playing with psychology is too dirty, but he likes it!
After the intermission ended and the second half began, Wigan Athletic's formation also changed to [-].

In this way, at least in terms of defense, their side protection ability is much better than in the first half.

But that's not enough, it's not enough.

And the next 15 minutes almost became Medel's performance time alone.

Aggressive sweeps, fearless one-on-one tackles, and decisive fouls.

In England, Medel fully demonstrated his characteristics for the first time.

His nicknames are "Bull" and "Gattuso Chile". As long as you are a fan, you will know the technical characteristics and personality of a player with such a nickname.

Medel strangled Wigan Athletic's midfielder alone, and with Montgomery's interception behind him, Wigan Athletic's offensive was broken and split abruptly before it could be played.

And when the game progressed to No. 604 minutes of the game, Medel's steals advance once again created an excellent offensive opportunity for Sheffield United.

After attracting Wigan Athletic's full-back to tackle, Medel flicked the ball to Trippier who was running in.

Just like the counterattack in the first half, Li Mo, Vardy, and Matt Ridge also sprinted at high speed in different positions.

Matt Ridge is on the left, Vardy is on the left of the center, and Li Mo is on the right of the center.

But this time Li Mo's position was slightly behind the two. He used this method to pull away at least two Wigan Athletic midfielders, allowing Vardy and Matt Ridge to quickly pass through the midfield.

Trippier is still very fast, but this time his state of mind is completely different from the first half.

In the first half, they were actively seeking to score goals and needed to increase the frequency of counterattacks and play fast breaks.

But now, they have a one-goal lead, and they have enough time to think and observe, so Trippier didn't pass in the first time.

The moment Li Mo ran into the penalty area, Trippier passed an inverted triangle ball back from the bottom. The speed of the ball was moderate and the position of the pass was very comfortable.

But when Li Mo was about to go forward to meet the ball, the Wigan Athletic players who had been staring at him immediately surrounded him.

This kind of double-team treatment startled Li Mo. He didn't expect so many defensive players to come forward to defend him.

Subconsciously protecting the ball first, after squeezing away a Wigan Athletic defender at his side, Li Mo kept stepping, made a deep-fried ball, and dribbled the ball out of the encirclement.

But after protruding, another defensive player in front of Li Mo blocked his shooting direction, but Li Mo didn't panic, he took the ball calmly and suddenly took a step to the left, it seemed that he wanted to go out of space and shoot again.

But when the Wigan Athletic defenders in front of him and behind him moved again, Li Mo caught up with the ball and knocked the ball back with his heel!
The football quickly rolled towards the penalty spot. At this time, a yellow figure also ran here. Facing the rolling football, he calmly chose to push the ball into the middle of the goal!
When Habsey saw Li Mo passing the ball, his heart skipped a beat, and then he saw Sheffield United players preparing to shoot.

For a shot near the penalty point, at such a short distance, it is basically impossible to see the opponent's kick and then choose the direction of the save.

Habsi gritted his teeth and chose the near corner position, but he soon discovered in horror that the opponent boldly pushed the ball to the middle!
"It's over!"

Habsey closed his eyes in despair, and the sound of a football hitting the net behind him gave a chill to the hearts of all Wigan Athletic players in the penalty area.

Medel tore off his jersey and ran passionately on the field. He showed his lean and strong muscles and kept patting his chest.

He really didn't expect to score a goal in his debut in the Premier League. He screamed and vented loudly while running. This feeling is really great!
correct!Thanks to Li Mo, Li Mo's movement took away too many Wigan Athletic defenders, and this heel pass is also very beautiful, otherwise how could he score so easily!

After standing still on the sidelines, Medel laughed and pointed at Li Mo. Li Mo also laughed and ran over. Then Medel jumped on Li Mo's back and waved his right hand towards the fans of Sheffield United together. arm.

Speed ​​clapped his hands.

Now it's really stable!
The commentator of Sky Sports called it incredible, not only for Li Mo's pass, but also for Sheffield United's counterattack efficiency.

All the neutral England fans watching this game, watching the 2-0 score on the field, have the same thoughts in their minds as the commentator at the moment.

"You Sheffield United, the special is to come to the Premier League to fry fish!"
