Chapter 504 The French team's counterattack! (Third update! Ask for a monthly pass!)

In the 31st minute of the game, Li Rui took a long shot in front of the penalty area, which was saved by the French goalkeeper Coupe.

Seeing that the shot was saved, Li Rui didn't look very upset. The face that appeared in the camera was smiling.

"Let's see, Li Rui is still smiling. Obviously, he is very satisfied with his performance in today's game." Then the camera changed and gave a close-up of Mourinho on the sidelines, telling everyone, The reason why Li Rui is so happy is Mourinho's trust!
"Haha, seeing Li Rui's wonderful performance, I bet McLaren must regret it when he saw the score on the spot! Li Rui has completely mastered England's offense, although he has not yet become the same as he was in Manchester United. The core of the team's offense, but, obviously, the England team is also trying to attack with him as the core, which should be Mourinho's tactical arrangement..." Lineker said.

"I don't agree with you, Gary. McLaren won't come to watch Mourinho's team live... No, I'm afraid he won't even watch the TV broadcast." Taibi said with a smile. (In front of the TV, McLaren went berserk again.)
"Tsk tsk, what a pity." Lineker clicked twice.

Li Rui, who was being praised by two commentators from Sky TV, was entangled with Gallas in the penalty area of ​​the French team at this moment.

***********
This is England's corner kick.

Li Rui was in the penalty area of ​​the French team, and he was going to compete for the corner kick. Gallas happened to be in charge of defending him. It couldn't be said to be just right. This was the arrangement of the French team's head coach Domenech, and Gallas was in charge. Marking Li Rui, as for Thuram, he came to 'take care' of Rooney more.

Li Rui and Gallas squeezed together in the penalty area, and the sparks of fighting immediately arose between the two. Before the game, Gallas threatened to freeze Li Rui and make Li Rui cry, and now the game has progressed to this point First, the first half was not over yet, Li Rui had already passed and shot, which made the big talker Gallas very embarrassed, so how did he feel that Li Rui was not pleasing to the eye.At this time, Gallas seemed to have forgotten that he was the one who provoked Li Rui first.

***********
Li Rui and Gallas were entangled with each other. Gallas kept making small movements. He secretly pulled Li Rui's jersey with his hands, which made it difficult for Li Rui to take off calmly.

Of course Li Rui was not happy, he slapped Gallas's hand off with one slap, but Gallas came up even harder and almost hugged Li Rui at the waist, Li Rui was even more annoyed, he broke away and pushed Gallas one.

Seeing that the two were about to develop into fists and kicks, the referee blew his whistle in time to suspend the game.

"Be honest, you two! Do you understand! Separate!!!" The referee ran in and verbally warned the two, and he waved his hands to the sides, "Separate! Understand what I mean?!"

Gallas raised his hands up with an innocent face, indicating that he had done nothing. Li Rui was also choked by this guy's shamelessness. After the referee walked away, Gallas grabbed Li Rui's jersey again...

***********
Beckham's corner kick passed into the penalty area. Li Rui barely took off under the interference of Gallas. He felt his scalp rub against the football.

The football flew to the back point, Gerrard headed the goal, but Coupe blocked the football like a bunker!

Immediately, the football was robbed by Thuram before Rooney and drove out of the penalty area!

"Thuram! Clearance! Anelka has the ball!"

After the football was kicked out from the penalty area by Thuram, it happened to land on Anelka's side near the middle circle.

"Oops!" Hargreaves was in the middle circle, seeing Anelka got the ball, he yelled secretly, and rushed towards Anelka, hoping to interfere with the French team's counterattack in the first place.

"Back to defense!" Mourinho jumped up from the sidelines and shouted loudly.

***********
However, it's too late.

Anelka stopped the ball with his chest, and before Hargreaves intercepted, he pushed the ball with his foot and the football split!

Then everyone saw Ribery plugging in from the side at high speed.

"Ribéry! No defenders around him, no offside! No offside! Anelka's pass was perfectly timed, no offside! He got the ball - beautiful stop - and Beckham was in Chasing back, he couldn't catch up, but he was still chasing - on the other side, Henry also came up - Robinson was in front of the goal! Ferdinand rushed up! Ribery! Pass the ball to Henry? Ferdinand rushed to Henry! ...Ah, feint! Ribéry! He tricked poor Robinson... Shot! Goal! Ribery's goal! The Frenchman got it back!"

Seeing Franck Ribery shoot the football into the net, everyone on the French team's bench and coach's bench, who seemed rather dull after the game started, jumped up! !

Domenech clenched his fists even more, trying to hold back his excitement!In his opinion, the French team still has a lot to do in the second half if they pulled back a goal in the first half!
***********
Unlike the cheers from the French bench, on England's coaching bench, Mourinho bit his lip and looked at the pitch with a livid face.

He was very dissatisfied with England's conceded goal. In this corner kick, a central defender Terry came up to fight for the header, and in the midfield, only Hargreaves was protecting it.In the backcourt, Ferdinand was alone.

What annoyed Mourinho the most was that when the French team counterattacked, Anelka scored the ball under the interference of Hargreaves. Terry, but Beckham at the corner flag, the former England captain almost tried his best to return to the defense, but to no avail.

Obviously, the live broadcast director could also feel Mourinho's anger. The camera first lingered on Mourinho with a livid face for a few seconds, and then showed Terry, the current England captain, and Beckham respectively. A close-up of the former England captain...intriguing.

"On this ball issue, David (Beckham) has done more than John (Terry) to deserve the captain's armband." Lineker criticized.

***********
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the score on the scoreboard at the New Wembley Stadium temporarily stayed at England 2:1 France!

Although it was a bit depressing to be scored by the French team, it did not affect the enthusiasm of the England fans in the new Wembley Stadium. It should be 2:1 to lead the 2006 World Cup runner-up France at halftime. It's something to be happy about.

As Lineker now commented on the first half, "The conceded goal in the first half exposed some loopholes in England's defense. However, judging from the score and the process of the first half, we have reason to say Satisfied, after all, this is only the second game of Mourinho's team, he has only accepted this team for a little over a month, and a lot of work has not had time to be done. The transformation of England is still in progress middle."

Fans and commentators expressed satisfaction with this score, but Mourinho himself was not satisfied.

***********
"What were you all doing when the French scored on that counterattack?" This was the first sentence Mourinho said after entering the home team locker room of the new Wembley Stadium, expressing 'madman' in a cold tone. very angry.

"Who remembers what I said before the game, in the face of the French's quick counterattack, you must block it layer by layer, don't mess up! You must quickly return to the defense, and you, when Vieira made a clearance, all of you We must start to return to defense." When he said this, Mourinho stared at Terry, although he did not criticize him by name, but for the England captain, this was also an expression of great dissatisfaction.

The rest of the England players sat in silence in their respective positions.The joy of leading in the first half disappeared at this time.

***********
"Owen." Mourinho called Hargreaves. He first praised Hargreaves' efforts, but he also criticized Hargreaves' mistakes when facing Anelka. Grab the action, because once the action is made, Anelka has more choices, and he can easily choose to dribble or split the ball.

"In the second half... completely block Ribery for me. I don't care what method you use, you can't let him take the ball comfortably. He is a dangerous man with fast speed. You all know this. In the second half of the game, Increase the defense against him, and defend in layers!"
"If it doesn't work, just foul! No matter how rough the action is, this is our home court, what are you afraid of?!" Mourinho said viciously, and the English players held their breath after being reprimanded by him. It was a vigorous nod. At this time, no one regarded this match as a warm-up match, even more important than the final!

************
"Offensively... I have to say, your performance is not bad." Mourinho praised the performance of the offensive players in the first half of the game.

"In the second half of the game, Steven, I need you to be more active on offense." Mourinho looked at Gerrard. He judged that in the second half of the game, Li Rui's freedom in the frontcourt would be greatly restricted. Meinecke will not allow Li Rui to continue to be "rampant".

Li Rui looked at Mourinho, thinking that he would receive the latest tactical instructions, but Mourinho didn't say anything.

***********
"Li Rui!" Mourinho stopped Li Rui when he was about to play.

Li Rui turned to look at Mourinho.

"In the second half, you still have 15 minutes!" While speaking, Mourinho pointed to the watch on his wrist.
