"Dududu-"

With the whistle of the referee, the 97-98 season of League One finally started.

It was Sheffield United who kicked off first.

"Hi everyone, this is League One in 97-98. Sunderland is playing against Sheffield United at home. Sheffield United haven't changed much this season. They have been quiet in the transfer market. But Sunderland is different. , This season not only changed a new coach, but also made frequent moves in the transfer market. A total of ten newcomers were bought."

"And there are eight rookies starting this game. We are all curious about Sunderland's style of play."

Are Mortensen and Lineker curious?

Everyone who follows this game is curious.

What kind of play will Sunderland take?Will there be any discomfort with so many newcomers?No mature team would make such a big change.Because such a big change can easily confuse the team's style of play.

Everyone wanted to see how Su Yun could solve this problem.

But soon they found out.

Sunderland's style of play has not changed in any way.

"Savic, long pass...Quinn, header...Phillips, shoot!"

"Michael Gray's cross, Quinn, flick it!"

"Quinn..."

In less than 10 minutes, Sunderland played the same way as before.They all made long passes from the midfield to go directly to Quinn, and then let Quinn grab the header.

"I don't see any difference between Sunderland now and Sunderland before. The offense is very one-dimensional, and Poborski, bought for £200 million, has not had the ball a few times. The offense is completely relying on Quinn."

Lineker shook his head after looking at it for a while.

Lineker originally thought that with so many rookies, Sunderland's style of play should change.Especially after adding a powerful wing attacker like Bobowski, the direction of attack must have changed.

But judging from the opening 10 minutes, there is no difference from the previous Sunderland team.

The Poborski, who should be flying fast on the wing, has not taken any balls in this game so far.Not to mention any performance.

"Let's take it slowly. Maybe there will be a little change."

Mortensen also felt too bland.

Although Quinn is very strong, there are still too many problems with this single offensive method.What will happen when Quinn is injured and in a bad state?

But Su Yun was very satisfied.

Eight newcomers joined the starting lineup, which changed too much for the team.They haven't fully formed a tacit understanding yet, and they can't play any complicated tactics at all.It is actually best for the team to maintain the original style of play.

Su Yun stepped forward and whistled.

"Jack, Jack. Push it up, push it up."

Su Yun was quite satisfied in the first 10 minutes.If there is some dissatisfaction, it is that Williams always retreats unconsciously, although it is of great help to the defense.But it didn't achieve the effect Su Yun wanted.

"Jack, go on, go on."

After finishing the order, Su Yun returned to his seat. After 10 minutes, Su Yun was completely relieved.Good idea at first.Although there are many newcomers, the idea of ​​​​playing offense around Quinn is correct.

Quinn hit a ball again, but Phillips couldn't catch it.

Phillips gave Quinn a thumbs up.

Quinn nodded.

Although it is indeed difficult for one person to carry a team's offense, Quinn is very happy. Quinn, 30, still feels like a lad in his early twenties, full of strength.He likes it.

"The game has been going on for 10 minutes, neither side has scored the opponent's goal. In the past 10 minutes, Sunderland's defense is at least a lot better. Robbie Savage is really a good defensive midfielder. , took Sunderland's defense up a notch."

The game was a bit dull.

It is different from the imaginary dialogue between the heroes of the League One.

So Mortensen could only find some other topics.

After watching for a while, the coach of Sheffield United smiled at the assistant coach next to him when he saw Sunderland's style of play.

"That Chinese coach really regarded Quinn as Superman."

The assistant coach also nodded.

"I think he has that kind of ability. When Coach Reed was here, isn't that the way he plays now."

"That's right. No matter how strong Quinn is, it's impossible for him to beat a team by himself."

But Su Yun had already seen the hope of victory.

So Su Yun went to the sidelines and kept waving his hands to let the team press forward.

After some rustiness at the beginning, Sunderland soon found the feeling.

Robbie Savage intercepted Sheffield United again, then lobbed the ball as before and passed it straight to Quinn.

"Savic... Another long pass to Quinn, Quinn... Go back, No. 8 Williams!"

Quinn's fight for the header is indeed too powerful.

Quinn has beaten Sheffield United's defenders in almost all header fights so far.This time Quinn received the ball and pointed the ball back a little.Williams, who has not found a position during the game, came to the ball accurately this time.

Faced with this opportunity, Williams certainly did not hesitate at all.

"Williams... shot!"

"Oh, the ball is fast!"

Really fast ball.The current Williams shot has no skills to speak of.There is only one thing about his shot, that is, he tenses up, and then shoots vigorously.

Williams is definitely strong in his legs.

This ball is like a cannonball when it is shot out. With a sound of "search", the ball has already arrived in front of the goal.

None of the Sheffield United goalkeepers responded.

"boom!"

The ball hit the post and bounced out.

"It's such a pity. Young Williams... isn't there anyone else. This is Kevin Phillips, make up for it!"

Although the ball hit the goal post, Kevin Phillips found the ball accurately on the way the ball bounced.Facing the ball and kicking it directly, the Sheffield United goalkeeper didn't react at all.

"goooooooooal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Mortensen finally woke up.

"Kevin Phillips, the player who moved to Sunderland for £40 this season. He has a good sense of smell and finds the ball accurately. One to zero, Sunderland scored one in the first round of League One. Zero ahead of Sheffield United."

"It was the first game goal at the Stadium of Light. Congratulations to Kevin Phillips, who got his name on the Stadium of Light."

Seeing Kevin Phillips' goal, Su Yun clenched his fists excitedly.

What an easy way to score goals.

I can beat you with such a simple method.

Quinn alone is enough for me in Sunderland.
