Chapter 171 Fighting a strong enemy, pretending to be tough

"The classic is reappearing!!! Li Mo almost dragged Kaboul to complete a turn and shoot at Tottenham's penalty area! Besides Drogba, which Premier League striker can do it! Gallas and Eke Tuo seems to be frozen in place, will they be thankful that they didn't defend Li Mo just now!"

Li Mo had a similar turn around and shot in the British Championship before, but this time it was different, this time in the Premier League, and he almost dragged Kabul for two steps!
Li Mo himself was very excited and excited to score such a goal with extremely violent aesthetics. After taking off his jersey, he ran wildly on the sideline, and his strong and ferocious muscles were shining under the light of the stadium. It caused countless female fans on the scene and in front of the TV to exclaim!
The slender hairstyle and handsome and tough face showed the masculine charm full of hormones. This scene made countless on-site reporters keep pressing the shutter of the camera, for fear of missing such news material.

When Li Mo approached the corner flag area, he knelt and knelt passionately to celebrate. Then he opened his arms, raised slightly, and leaned forward to welcome the cheers of all Sheffield United fans!
Redknapp pursed his lips. At this moment, he was no longer angry about losing the ball. Instead, he looked sadly at Kabul who was still lying in the penalty area and refused to look up.

Although Lao Lei was not very optimistic about Kabul before, thinking that he was immature and did not fully realize his physical talent, but anyway, after Kabul returned to Tottenham, he has been conscientious. The main player is injured, and he will be able to play immediately. On the top, it is also the best rotation central defender on the bench.

It doesn't matter if you get scored, Tottenham's offense is not bad. If you press out to play later, you may not be able to score Sheffield United's goal, but if Kabul loses confidence because of being blown up by Li Mo this time, then It's a hassle.

Dawson and Ledley King don't know when they will be able to heal their injuries and play. At present, Tottenham's central defender is supported by Kabul and an old Galla. The record will be greatly reduced, which is a consequence that Redknapp cannot accept.

"Scott! Come here!"

Redknapp called Parker, and then asked Parker to find a way to appease Kabul's emotions. If Kabul can't hold on on the court, he must tell him in time later.

It's no wonder that Lao Lei is so nervous. After all, the stories of Drogba and Senderos are still circulating among the major teams in the Premier League.

Although Wenger has repeatedly denied the rumors that Senderos was destroyed by Drogba's self-confidence, but now Senderos' situation and poor state have already explained everything.

Wenger placed high hopes on Senderos, who was trained as the team's future defense core, but was given a psychological shadow by Drogba. Since then, his career has been declining all the way. Kabul's talent is far from Senderos. He is so strong, but his strength is mediocre. If Li Mo blows his mentality, Lao Lei doesn't know who else he can use to play the central defender.

But the game is still going on, and Redknapp has not had much time to think about it. Now he can only hope that Kaboul will come through on his own.

After the celebration, the Sheffield United players patted Li Mo's naked upper body and teased him to draw his attention to the crazy female fans he might encounter after the game. Then they walked towards their own half confidently. Li Mo Mo Mo got a topaz card from the referee.

At the moment, Adebayor, who was standing at the kick-off point, was looking at Li Mo's figure enviously.

He used to have the nickname of "Little Warcraft", especially in the season when he scored more than 20 goals at Arsenal. Countless media reporters believed that his future achievements would be comparable to Drogba.

But so many years have passed, Drogba is still the only monster in the Premier League, but he has been wandering around, without a championship, so naturally there is no enthusiasm. Seeing Li Mo's high spirits at this moment, Adebayor Not only did I think of myself in the past.

The self who is full of talent, full of ambition, and full of unlimited expectations for the future.

"If I hadn't rejected the professor's offer to stay, would everything have been different?"

Adebayor was a little lost, but when he saw the white jerseys of his teammates beside him, there was only a sigh left in his heart.

He is already playing for Tottenham, Arsenal's rival team, and there is no going back. Who can blame him for the path he chose?
Perhaps, in his heart, he was just feeling guilty all the time, feeling guilty towards that old man.
Bell looked at Adebayor, who had a strange expression on his face, and didn't think much about it. He thought he was distracted by Li Mo's goal. At this moment, he chose to encourage his teammates loudly.

He is not willing to be compared by Li Mo, especially after Li Mo scored such an amazing goal!
Bell, who is gradually entering the peak of his career, naturally has his own pride. He thinks he is no worse than anyone else. If Li Mo can carry Sheffield United forward, can't he lead Tottenham forward?
Just one goal behind!

Bell looked firmly at Sheffield United's goal, making up his mind in his heart that he must help the team equalize the score as soon as possible.

After the game restarted, Bell was full of fighting spirit and kept asking for the ball on the side.

He is not the kind of player who only has speed. Although his small skills are not delicate, he is definitely worthy of his title of genius. If he only has speed without matching excellent skills, Gareth Bale will not be there The Premier League has achieved its current reputation!

Tottenham also had no way out, and the top priority was to equalize the score as soon as possible, so even though the confrontation with Sheffield United in the middle was very difficult, the midfielders on Tottenham's side still chose to press hard.

Bell began to frequently take the ball on the wing looking for opportunities to break through. It is not too difficult for Bell to beat Trippier one-on-one. Come and pass the ball to Adebayor, or pass back to your own half to reorganize.

As for Sheffield United, Medel felt that he had encountered a difficult opponent.

Tottenham's Modric looks thin and weak, but his confrontation ability is not bad at all, and his ball-handling skills are amazing. It is difficult for him to grab the ball from the opponent's feet!

The last time he played Manchester City, David Silva gave Medel such an uncomfortable feeling.

No matter how they grab such a player, they seem to be able to take the ball out calmly and pass it to the nearby teammates who ran out of position. They can organize the team very well by advancing and delaying, which makes Medel play a little irritated .

In addition to helping the team sort out the ball in the midfield, Modric, who is gradually entering the state, has been observing the running positions of Bell and Van der Vaart in the frontcourt.

It will be difficult for Adebayor to get a chance to score again when he encounters a heavy central defender like Maguire, so Bell, who has a speed advantage, and Van der Vaart, who has a technical advantage, are the key to breaking the game in the frontcourt.

Modric has never been the type of midfielder known for his stats, he is similar to Xavi and Pirlo, they are the "brain" of the team, they will keep watching their teammates when the football is at their feet Move around and observe the state of your teammates.

Maybe they don't send the deadly pass often, but those players who send the deadly pass will always receive the comfortable pass from them in the right position!
After several unsuccessful steals, Medel saw that he was a little out of touch with other teammates, so he subconsciously took back his position. Modric took this opportunity to suddenly lead the ball forward. Drinkwater stepped forward to intercept. Modric But Qi quickly knocked the ball horizontally to Parker who was plugging in.

After passing the ball, Modric did not stand still. He continued to move forward, driving Matic and Drinkwater to retreat and shrink the first line of defense.

This is an offensive opportunity for Tottenham, at least they can bring the ball into Sheffield United's half, Parker passed the ball to Kyle Walker who inserted on the right, and Modric also slowed down at this time Footsteps, after Kyle Walker attracted Sheffield United's defense on the left, he hurriedly raised his hand for the ball.

Kyle Walker heard Modric's shout and saw that Modric was also standing in a relatively safe position, so he passed the ball directly, but Modric took the ball and then rubbed it up , Hanging it at the feet of Van der Vaart, who is standing on the ribs of Sheffield United half-court and almost unmarked!
Kyle Walker's forward drive pulled Matt Ridge away, and Bertrand's position was closer to the wing, so now Van der Vaart can take the ball very comfortably.

He is the kind of threatening player who can often send the last pass, and at this moment without the interference of Matt Ridge's brown sugar, Van der Vaart looked up and observed calmly, and then led the ball to his dominant left foot , sent a diagonal over-the-top through from the ribs straight into the Sheffield United penalty area!

The football ball is very fast and draws a beautiful arc. Adebayor was stopped by Maguire, and his speed did not support him to catch up with this pass in just one or two seconds.

There is only one person in the Tottenham team who can catch up with such a fast overhead through ball, and that is Gareth Bale!

"Good shot! Modric passed the ball to Van der Vaart, who was almost unguarded, and went straight through the top! Bell, who was in the back point, has already accelerated!!!"

Zhan Jun couldn't help applauding Tottenham's attack this time. Although his heart was 100% for Sheffield United, he couldn't help but praise when he saw the pass from Modric and van der Vaart.

Especially when he saw that Bell had thrown away Trippier and went straight into the Sheffield United penalty area, Zhan Jun shouted nervously!
Bell's eyes are only left with the football that is about to fly in front of him!
His explosive ability is too strong, and he threw away Trippier and Matthew Lorton in almost a second or two. Van der Vaart's pass was not very high, and he fell quickly after reaching the penalty area. Bell almost There is no need to stop and adjust the ball, and it will arrive in an instant!
Facing the football that just landed in the right position, Bell stretched out his left foot to lightly block it, and the football quickly turned and went straight to Sheffield United's goal!

Shay immediately made a save action. He thought that Bell would push a low shot and quickly went to the ground, but Bell blocked the ball with his arch slightly upward. The football almost flew into the goal by rubbing Shay's shoulder. Dunton and Trippier just arrived at this time. Although they tried their best to return to the defense, they were still one step too late!
"Gareth Bale!!! The ball went in! Less than 10 minutes after Li Mo scored, Gareth Bale helped Tottenham equalize the score! Van der Vaart passed the ball fast enough, and Bale ran fast enough! It’s like stepping on a somersault cloud!!!”

The current Bell has not yet won the nickname of "Great Sage" given by domestic fans, but the nickname of "Little Monkey" has long been called. Zhan Jun naturally knows it, and subconsciously blurted out "Somersault Cloud", countless At first glance, many domestic fans felt that it was not against harmony at all.

The moment Bell sprinted just now was indeed at an astonishing speed, wasn't it like stepping on a somersault cloud!

It's a pity that Bell's goal was scored against Sheffield United, otherwise the fans might have shouted a few good goals.

The moment Lao Lei saw Bell's goal on the sidelines, he also jumped up in ecstasy, and then hugged and celebrated with his assistants passionately.

For Tottenham, this goal is simply a life-saving goal!

If it is too late to equalize the score, and his defense continues to bear the impact pressure of Li Mo, then Lao Lei feels that his own defenders will not be able to hold on in the first half.

But now that Bell scored the goal, Tottenham equalized the score in the first half. The morale boost is on the one hand, and the pressure on the defensive end will be much less.

At least when Sheffield United pressed forward again, they had to think of Bell's goal, and the Sheffield United players did not dare to jump in unscrupulously to deliver shells to Li Mo.

It can help Sheffield United's midfielder to pass a few comfortable passes to Li Mo, which can be regarded as helping Tottenham's defense in the midfield and backcourt.
"Fack, Gareth, the unlucky boy!"

Speed ​​was already thinking about how to use the advantage of this ball in the second half to seduce Tottenham to press forward, and then continued to play Tottenham's counterattack. As a result, Gareth Bale's goal directly interrupted his beautiful thoughts.

But in such a goal, he couldn't blame Sheffield United's defensive players.

As an old man of the Welsh national team, he has been paying attention to the growth of Bell, the future core of Wales. From the Champions League game when Bell beat Maicon last season, Speed ​​knew that Bell has officially set foot on the football world. The road to superstar transformation.

With Bell's current strength, it is normal for Explosive to score some unreasonable goals. Speed ​​can only attribute this goal to Bell's personal ability. That speed is indeed too strong, just like Li Mo Just as Kabul was forced with his body, Bale used his speed to force Trippier!

"Call Gary back, let him stop interfering with Luka Modric, let him be firmly nailed to the wing, and stop giving Gareth room to speed up!"

Speed ​​asked the assistant coach to go to the sidelines and ask Medel to withdraw to the wing. Now he would rather Sheffield United's midfield interception ability be reduced, and he would not give Bell another chance to play.

Medel's speed can't keep up with Bell, but he has a strong defensive ability. He can pester Bell or make a decisive foul. In short, don't give Bell a chance to play.

Don't look at how luxurious Bell's statistics in the Premier League are now, but don't forget that Bell scored a hat-trick in the Champions League against Inter Milan!

In case Bell exploded again today, and even played against Sheffield United, then Speed ​​really has no place to cry.

Li Mo also watched the scene of Tottenham players celebrating Bell around him on the field, and he called it a pity in his heart.

But Li Mo was not surprised that Bell could score the equalizing goal so quickly.

Because others may not know, but Li Mo knows very well in his heart that this season is the first season of Bale's big explosion. Introduced at a high price.

Bell, who has maintained a healthy state, can be said to be able to blow up a wing defense with his own strength in the past few years. He has assisted and scored with both hands. Matthew Lorton and the young Trippier can't stop Bell. It's normal.

But just as Bell was inspired by Li Mo's goal, Li Mo also ignited excitement in his heart at the moment.

And Bell, who is about to enter the peak period, performed hurricanely!
Isn't it just a goal?

What I'm best at is scoring goals!

Bell's speed is very difficult to defend Sheffield United's defense, but with Medel's defense, it will be difficult for Bell to perform so well, but Li Mo is different, even if Parker helps Kabul defend, Li Mo can still withstand the pressure to find opportunities in Tottenham's restricted area.

This is also the biggest difference between a center forward and a winger.

If the winger wants to score goals, there must be space. Either his teammates help create the space, or the winger takes the ball to highlight the space.

But a big center only needs his teammates to pass the ball in. For a super center, as long as his teammates can pass the ball, then other problems are not a problem.

After all, a center forward who can handle defenders and is not afraid of pinching defense is worthy of being called a big center forward!

"Jamie, want to score a goal?"

On the way back, Li Mo pulled Vardy and whispered something in his ear.

Vardy gave Li Mo a blank look.

Isn't this nonsense, which striker doesn't want to score? !
But Vardy turned his mind, as if he thought of something, his eyes lit up, and then he looked at Li Mo expectantly.

"If I can score a goal today, I will treat you to a big meal when I go back!"

Li Mo chuckled, then held Vardy's shoulders, covered his mouth with his hands and explained to Vardy.

"They will definitely defend me desperately later, trying to drag the score to the end of halftime. I will attack first. In the last few minutes, I will play the ball for you. You only have these few minutes, maybe 5 minutes. It may only be two or three minutes, and whether you can score a goal at that time depends on yourself."

Vardy nodded again and again. Tottenham must put all their defensive energy on Li Mo. There is no pressure on his side. Let alone 5 minutes, even 2 minutes is enough for him to seize at least one opportunity.

And the ball made by Li Mo is comfortable!

In the case of one-on-one grabbing points, Vardy is still sure that Li Mo's pass can be scored into Tottenham's goal!

After the re-kick-off, Li Mo still stayed in the Tottenham penalty area and waited patiently for an opportunity as he did at the beginning of the game.

Kabul's mental state seems to be better this time. Bell's goal made him breathe a sigh of relief. With the comfort of Parker and Gallas, Kabul still tidied up his mentality that was almost collapsed before, and continued to work hard with Lee. Mo resisted.

Speed ​​did not make any adjustments in terms of offense except for letting Medel retreat to stare at Bell.

Li Mo has an absolute advantage against the current Tottenham back line. Now it's up to Li Mo to see if he can seize the time and score another goal before the end of the first half.

Sheffield United's two flanks, especially Trippier's side began to advance slowly with the help of Medel, and Li Mo got more and more opportunities.

If you want to talk about which Premier League teams like to use crossing offensive routines this season, Sheffield United must at least rank in the top three.

Bertrand, Matt Ridge, and Trippier are all good crossers. Sometimes Drinkwater and Vardy will also come in with a kick or two. Who makes Li Mo's header ability too strong?

Especially when it is necessary to seize the time to attack, Sheffield United often adopts the simplest crossing tactic. Other teams may have the mentality of "playing two shots if there is no date" for the cross, but in For the players of Sheffield United, crossing is the best way for them to provide support to Li Mo.

And when Sheffield United abandoned all the bells and whistles of offensive routines and played a fast forward cross tactic, the pressure on Tottenham's defense suddenly increased again!
Kabul and Gala fought against Li Mo with all their might. From time to time, the three jumped and collided with each other in the air, making dull melee sounds. Li Mo had the best physical fitness and fought The top ability is strong, but the joint defense of Kabul and Gala makes it difficult for Li Mo to grasp the balance.

After all, the jumper is in the air, and he can't change his position even if he is pinched from front to back. If he attacks on the ground, Li Mo can still get rid of the defense with the dribble, but in the air, he can only face head-to-head.

Although Tottenham's two central defenders said they were in a panic, they helped Tottenham through this difficult time anyway.

It's not that the two of them are embarrassed and refuse to ask others to help, but that they dare not ask Hector or Kyle Walker to help.

Both of them were almost knocked apart by Li Mo. If these two full-backs were replaced, they would probably have to fly out for the first confrontation, so forget it.

Hector and Kyle Walker also knew that they did not enter the penalty area to participate in this level of tragic confrontation, and they both honestly helped to watch Vardy who was running.

After 40 minutes into the first half, Li Mo was still raising his hands in the Tottenham penalty area and kept asking for the ball. Seeing this, the Sheffield United players had no choice but to continue to give Li Mo the ball on both sides.

During this period, Bell also got some opportunities to counterattack, but Medel and Matic also forcibly kept Bell near the center circle by relying on decisive fouls.

Towards the end of the first half, the players on Tottenham's side couldn't care less about counterattacks, and they all retreated to the half to help their defensive players stabilize the situation.

However, Li Mo hit more fiercely, ignoring the incoming ball and fiercely fighting for the top. Kabul's mental state was also tense, for fear that Li Mo would give him another unreasonable raw food, but In such a state of mind, his steps seemed a little erratic.

Galla had a bad idea, so he quickly asked Parker to retreat into the penalty area to help.

But Parker is only 1.8 meters tall and his weight is normal. The ground defense may still interfere with Li Mo, but for air defense?That is delivering food to Li Mo!

No.404 minutes into the first half, it was almost the last few offensive opportunities for Sheffield United, but Li Mo hadn't played for Vardy yet. Vardy was a little confused, but he didn't say anything, still It was observing the changes in the number of defenders around Li Mo every time he was fighting for the top.

As Parker also retreated to the penalty area, Tottenham's defender outside the penalty area became Modric. Vardy thought for a moment, and gradually expanded the range of running positions, running around Li Mo from the penalty area, and gradually It turned into running around the top of the arc in the penalty area.

No. 405 minutes, after Bertrand and Matt Ridge made a cross-change, they received the ball from Matic, who was pressing forward, and played the ball again in the left area of ​​Tottenham's penalty area.

In order to cause as much chaos as possible in Tottenham's penalty area, Bertrand's kicking height this time is much higher than the previous few times. Li Mo has enough time to adjust his pace this time. Jumping a little earlier, Li Mo was overjoyed when he saw this, and then he overwhelmed Parker who was only 1.8 meters away, ignoring the small movements of Gala beside him, and jumped up with all his strength!
Before the football came over, Kabul felt that his body was already falling unstoppably. He secretly thought it was bad, but he could only feel Li Mo's body that was constantly vacating behind him, and prayed in his heart that his old buddies would keep going. La can be tough and destroy the ball.

But Gala couldn't help but cursed out loud.

If he could guard against Li Mo, he would have already gone up by himself. His old arms and legs have already entered the state of retirement, how can he stop a big center like Li Mo?
At this time, he could only grab Li Mo's jersey with his hands, trying to interfere with Li Mo's top fight as much as possible. As for Parker?Gala could hardly count on it.

Li Mo took off under the defense of almost three Tottenham players at the moment. Amid the exclamation of all the fans, Li Mo won the ball with one against three!
But he didn't shake his head to attack the goal like the previous few times, but pointed the football outward!
The landing point is almost to the right of the arc top of Tottenham's penalty area, one step outside the penalty area. Modric is watching Li Mo's movements right in front of the arc top of the penalty area. When he made a move, he felt a figure passing by quickly, heading towards the football landing point!

"Jamie!"

"careful!"

Li Mo and Modric yelled at almost the same time, but the other Sheffield United and Tottenham players hadn't reacted yet, but Vardy took a small step to lead the ball. After entering the penalty area, he didn't hesitate Volley!
Friedel's line of sight was still blocked by his own players. At this moment, he could only vaguely see Sheffield United players entering the penalty area. There was a lot of noise around him. He calmed down and was about to call the people in front of him. The teammate moved away, but saw a football pass through the crotch of the teammate in front of him, and then went straight into the net at the near corner of the goal!
"Jamie Vardy!!! Goal in???!!! OMG!!! Vardy scored his sixth Premier League goal! Sheffield United at the end of the first half Overtook the score again! The perfect cooperation between Li Mo and Vardy! The old goalkeeper of the Tottenham team was stunned!"

After repeatedly confirming that the football entered the net, Vardy first suppressed his inner ecstasy, found Li Mo in the penalty area, and then skillfully turned over and jumped onto Li Mo's back.

"Damn! I thought you wouldn't pass the ball to me, it's just such a chance! You have to treat me to dinner!!!"

Vardy chattered excitedly and resentfully in Li Mo's ear, but Li Mo turned to the teammates who rushed up to celebrate with his back on his back, and laughed loudly:

"Isn't there no good opportunity here? When I saw you running outside, I knew that the opportunity might be coming. Just say how well you passed it on! What do you mean I want to invite you to dinner?! It's not that you agreed to invite me."

Li Mo felt that something was wrong, and when he was about to refute Vardy, he was interrupted by his excited teammates.

Seeing the referee signal that the goal was valid off the court, Speed ​​also let out a sigh of relief, and then hugged the assistant coach who rushed out, raised his fists and roared in celebration.

The faces of the Tottenham players were a little dazed.

Especially the players in the midfield, they don't understand, didn't they defend well just now? 10 minutes passed, but Sheffield United scored again in the last minute?
Redknapp also broke the defense a bit, this fucking defense!
Even if you scored another goal in the first few minutes, he wouldn't say anything, it's purely lack of strength, I can understand.

But this is already the last minute, conceding the ball when the referee may blow the whistle at any time?
Playing with the mentality of your teammates!

Suppressing his anger and waiting for the referee to blow the whistle to end the first half, Redknapp turned and walked directly to the locker room.

Time to unleash your hair dryer skills!Especially for Kabul, torture is impossible. When the time comes to torture this baby's mentality, it will be the team that will suffer, but we must spray a few words!Otherwise, Lao Lei felt that he would definitely be pissed off by him!

The players on the Sheffield United side happily slapped Vardy's head and shoulders vigorously, making him scream in pain, but the expression on his face was extremely embarrassing.

Li Mo and the old handsome guy Speed ​​high-fived and hugged, and then they walked back to the locker room shoulder to shoulder.

This goal is very crucial. The players of Sheffield United are full of confidence again. Even if the opponent has an outstanding Bell, they have Li Mo on their side!
Not only can he score goals, but he can also attract most of the defensive pressure and then assist his teammates. Li Mo's performance makes his teammates feel extremely confident!

Speed ​​also let go, letting Medel focus on Bell in the second half. Anyway, Matic Gadrinkwater's defense in the middle is enough. Even if they don't play midfield strangle tactics, normal defense can Not afraid of Tottenham's midfield advancement.

After all, Bell’s ball in the first half explained the problem. For stars such as Bell, van der Vaart, and Modric, no matter how tight your defense is, if they have a flash of inspiration, it’s normal to create some wonderful offensive opportunities. .

Sheffield United's current defensive system is well established, but there are not many defensive stars in their prime.

Shay is too old, Maguire still needs to continue to grow, and Matthew Lorton's personal ability is not bad, but he is far from the star.

Both Medel and Matic still need time to grow, they are far from their peak period, so in the face of the threat of offensive stars, Sheffield United has not yet a player who can be called a defensive star who can stand up .

So instead of investing a lot of energy on the defensive end, why not continue to provide a lot of support to Li Mo and Vardy on the front line, let them strive for another goal, and completely kill the game?

As far as Tottenham's defense line is concerned, Li Mo is almost overturned by himself, and with Vardy in good condition, Speed ​​feels that there is a lot to do.

"Then let Danny get in at the right time. Danny passed me a lot of good balls last season when he played as a central midfielder. I believe Danny can still remember the feeling of passing the ball."

Li Mo put forward his own suggestion. Since Speed ​​wants to play the tactic of pressing forward and attacking, let Brother Drinking Water simply look for opportunities to pass the threatening ball in the middle. After all, he has been playing the tactic of passing in the first half. If Germany Linkwater suddenly dribbles in at that time, and he will definitely catch Tottenham by surprise.

Speed ​​thinks it makes sense, now that Matic is playing more and more stable, when the time comes to let Matic lag behind, Drinkwater advances in time to create opportunities, but there is no risk.

Drinkwater has no objection to this. Although he said that he will be fixed in the midfielder position in the future, as a player who has been playing as a central midfielder before, he definitely prefers to attack more, and he passed the ball to Li Mo. Maybe you can swipe the assist data, why not do it~
After formulating the tactics for the second half, the players of Sheffield United seized the time to rest for a while. Finally, near the end of the break, everyone encouraged each other in the locker room. After making up their minds to win the game, they followed Li Mo again Walked out of the locker room with confidence.

In the second half, Tottenham kicked off first, and Sheffield United's midfielders were fully prepared. Although Tottenham took the lead and played wave after wave of offensive climax in Sheffield United's half, Sheffield United Still withstood the pressure.

After all, it was so difficult to play against Manchester City before, and the Sheffield United players were all defended. Tottenham's Bale now has Medel close to him. Sheffield United's defensive players responded calmly and did not give Tottenham too many opportunities.

After Sheffield United grabbed the ball, the wing players of Sheffield United directly launched their best quick counterattack.

Tottenham defended Sheffield United's side attack quite closely. In the first half, Sheffield United only played a wide cross and almost broke Tottenham's defense. Redknapp found that his defenders It is true that there is no way to take Li Mo, so they used their brains to change the way of restricting Sheffield United's offense from pinching Li Mo to restricting them from taking the ball from the side.

After all, no matter how awesome you are, Li Mo, you must have teammates to pass the ball to you, right?

Otherwise, you can retreat yourself to get the ball and push it forward. At that time, Modric and Parker's interference double-team will come in handy. Not to mention defending Li Mo, at least Li Mo's threat will no longer be as good as before. Half as big.

So in the first 10 minutes of the second half, the Tottenham team tried their best to limit Sheffield United's wide players from advancing with the ball, but the Sheffield United players were not in a hurry.

If the Tottenham team intends to spend their energy on the restricted side all the time, they are also happy to see such a situation. After all, Sheffield United is leading now. As long as Li Mo retreats in the last 10 minutes, Sheffield United The luxury bus will be ready, and it will be Tottenham who will be in a hurry.

But Tottenham also know this. Many teams in the Premier League are suffocated by Sheffield United's last-minute bus tactics. Sheffield United can play four defensive midfielders at the last moment. Come up, plus five or even six defenders in the penalty area, it really doesn't work well for any tactics.

So after restricting Sheffield United's wing advance on the defensive end, Tottenham's midfielders also kept taking turns to plug in, providing pass support for Bell and Adebayor.

Adebayor has also flourished for a while. In any case, Maguire is still a rookie in the Premier League. Adebayor gradually got a lot of money from Maguire with his experience. United's half-court cheated fouls, trying to play set-kick tactics!
Li Mo didn't expect this, but after thinking about it, Li Mo felt that Tottenham's tactic was more reasonable.

After all, Van der Vaart had a good free kick at this time, and there were Modric and Bell behind him.

And even if you don't hit a direct free kick, if you drop the ball into the penalty area, Tottenham still has the high point of Adebayor, Kabul has a more obvious height advantage, and Bale's header is not bad
Just when Li Mo was thinking about it, van der Vaart took a high-quality free kick, but the football hit the post and went slightly wide, causing the Sheffield United fans on the scene to exclaim.

It seems that seeing the hope of equalizing the score again, the morale of the Tottenham team has slowly recovered, and Bell's limited number of possessions has created a lot of set-piece opportunities.

However, Medel was also very astute. He fouled directly when Bell started to speed up. The position of the set ball was biased towards the wing. Tich pushed out of the penalty area or destroyed it for the first time.

Li Mo and Vardy are both very patient now, especially after seeing Tottenham's defensive focus on the wing, they even looked at each other tacitly.

In the No.603 minute of the second half, Sheffield United finally got the opportunity they wanted. After Bell's long shot was blocked by Matthew Lorton with his body, Matic poked the ball out before Adebayor. Drinkwater took the ball and went straight forward!
This really caught the Tottenham players by surprise. In the first half, Drinkwater basically passed the ball as soon as he took it, and stayed honestly in the midfield all the time. This sudden advance made Drinkwater unexpectedly The ball was smoothly brought to the position near the top of the arc in the middle circle.

Parker tried to intercept in the midfield, but Drinkwater didn't give him a chance, and directly came a long-distance stick to the ground!

This bold through ball of more than 30 meters, let alone the Tottenham players, Li Mo himself did not expect it!

But he still started sprinting against offside at the first time, so when he got the ball in the front rib area of ​​Tottenham's big penalty area, Tottenham's right back and his "senior brother" Kyle Walker was still desperately returning. Chase.

The scene in front of me seemed familiar, two central defenders and a goalkeeper.

Li Mo grinned, and then he directly moved the ball horizontally and started cutting inside.

When he played against Arsenal and Manchester City before, he had a three-man performance in a row, but this time he did not intend to surpass others.

He wants a direct way to end it!
After cutting two steps in, Li Mo adjusted his step and kicked his foot directly on the penalty area line to shoot!

Robben's inside cut is unrivaled in the world. You know he wants to cut inside, but you just can't prevent it.

Li Mo can't reach that level at this stage, but when Tottenham's two central defenders refuse to leave the penalty area and give him a chance to shoot from the penalty area line, Tottenham are doomed to lose the ball again.

After finishing the shot, Li Mo turned around and raised his hands with a smile. Friedel tried his best to catch the ball, but when he saw that the football had completely rubbed against the dead corner of the goalpost and the crossbar and entered the goal , his eyes dimmed.

He can't jump into this blind spot!
"When you know that Li Mo is going to shoot, you'd better go forward and intercept it, because your goalkeeper can't defend! Absolute dead end! Li Mo, scored twice!!!"

Li Mo, who looked back confidently, smiled even brighter when he heard the loud cheers from the Sheffield United fans.

Today, he's a force, he's set up!

A certain Italian teenager couldn't save the ball, he said!
