The game was over, and the score was 3-0.

Fifteen minutes later.

The second half began.

Although the Aston Villa players on the field launched an attack on Brighton's goal at the first time, the effect was not obvious.

Because Brighton had already set up an iron bucket formation at this time.

All 11 players on the field took the initiative to retreat to their own half to participate in defense.

During the halftime break, Brighton coach Hughton had already issued tactical instructions, requiring Brighton's players. After the start of the second half, put all the focus on the defensive end.

The 2:0 lead was enough for Brighton to win tonight.

They didn't need to continue attacking.

To be honest.

When the entire Brighton team retreated to the half court to defend, Aston Villa, who played at home, really had no way to get too many good opportunities.

Not long after the start of the second half, as the offensive core of Aston Villa, Grealish took the lead!

Take the lead!

This time.

Grealish received the ball on the left side, which he is best at.

Still the same as usual.

A fake shot and a bicycle pass.

However, although Grealish's movements were very coherent, there was no obvious effect.

After all, Brighton's full-backs have experienced the training of the Premier League.

Moreover.

In addition to the full-backs who immediately assisted Grealish.

Brighton's two midfielders Stephens and Kayal also rushed to Grealish's side at lightning speed.

In a moment, three Brighton players appeared around Grealish to interfere...

As expected.

Grealish lost the ball at his feet.

Brighton's chance to counterattack!

In the Douyin live broadcast room, commentator He Wei couldn't help but get nervous after seeing this scene.

"Stephens completed the steal!!"

"This is a great opportunity for Brighton to counterattack!!"

"Pass the ball!"

"..."

"The ball was controlled by Brighton's winger Connocket!!"

"Cut inside!"

"Connocket decisively chose to shoot! Volley!!"

"The shot was high!!"

"The ball went over the crossbar! Aston Villa escaped!"

Experienced commentator He Wei continued to shout into the microphone: "It seems that Brighton still wants to score!"

"Tucked defense is just their strategy! The main purpose is to lure Aston Villa's players to attack in a big way, and then defeat Aston Villa with a counterattack!"

The game continued.

Dean Smith also guessed the opponent's coach's tactics.

But!

Aston Villa is now in a dilemma.

The team is behind! They had to exert their strength on the offensive end, but the opponent's counterattack was too sharp, which prevented Aston Villa from going all out.

It was quite uncomfortable.

In the 20 minutes after the start of the second half, although Aston Villa had been in control of the ball, they still did not pose a threat to the opponent's goal! !

Finally.

In the 78th minute of the game!

Dean Smith, the head coach of Aston Villa, could not sit still!

He came to the bench and asked Xia Yuan: "Xia! How is it! Can you play?"

Dean Smith still did not want to give up the FA Cup!

He decided to send his trump card!

"Coach, I have been waiting for this sentence for a long time!"

After Xia Yuan finished speaking, he immediately changed his jersey! !

In the Douyin live broadcast room, the commentator He Wei was immediately excited when he saw Xia Yuan standing on the bench! !

"The 78th minute of the game!! The 78th minute!! Aston Villa made a substitution adjustment!!"

"Xia Yuan!! Xia Yuan is on the field!"

"Since Xia Yuan had rested for two games due to injury after the match with Birmingham! Now, Xia Yuan is on the field again!"

"I hope Xia Yuan can play at his previous level! Help Aston Villa complete the reversal!"

Bullet screen area.

Xiaguo fans seemed to have seen the savior, and cheered for Xia Yuan one after another! !

"Finally here!! Xia Yuan!"

"The counterattack starts now! Go Aston Villa!!"

"I finally waited for you! Idol!!"

"From now on, Xia Yuan starts to take over the game!"

"Wow! Xia Yuan, I haven't seen him for a long time, I miss him so much!"

"Aston Villa's real offensive core is on the field!"

"Tremble! Brighton!"

Of course, no

The fans of Xiaguo who were watching the live broadcast were excited. In the stands of Villa Park, more than 40,000 home fans could not sit still!

They stood up and gave Xia Yuan extremely warm applause and cheers! !

"Villa's hero is back!"

"Xia! Lead Villa to the FA Cup final!!"

"Hurry up and give this damn football to Xia! Let Xia solve the problem!"

"To be honest! As long as Xia is on the field! Aston Villa can't lose!!"

...

The 80th minute of the game.

Xia Yuan received the football for the first time in the midfield.

At this moment.

There was no Brighton player around Xia Yuan to continue to interfere.

It seemed that the players of this Premier League team did not take Xia Yuan seriously.

This undoubtedly gave Xia Yuan a great opportunity to pass the ball.

The next second.

Xia Yuan suddenly swung his right leg!

Bang! !

A beautiful arc flew into the Brighton penalty area! !

Right side of the penalty area.

Aston Villa's striker, Abraham, headed the ball to Grealish in front of the goal! !

The shaker shot hard!

Bang! !

The football flew past the fingers of Brighton goalkeeper Matthew Ryan.

"The ball went in!!!"

"Aston Villa scored a goal!!"

"Two to one!"

"Aston Villa, playing at home, pulled one back!"

"This is an indirect assist from Xia Yuan!"

"Sure enough, Xia Yuan is the real thigh of Aston Villa. The first touch of Xia Yuan after he came on the court was an exquisite long pass!!"

Although He Wei's voice was a little hoarse, he was still hysterically shouting Xia Yuan's name.

And on the barrage.

The four words Xia Yuan is awesome have been completely flooded.

On the sidelines, Aston Villa coach Dean Smith saw this scene and he could hardly believe his eyes.

Although Dean Smith knew how powerful Xia Yuan was and how important Xia Yuan was to the team, he still couldn't believe that Xia Yuan helped the team score a goal with his first touch... "Fuck!" "If I had known, I would have let Xia start!" Dean Smith said to himself. At the same time, on the bench of Brighton, head coach Hughton was also in deep doubt. He hesitated and asked the assistant coach: "Who is the opponent's No. 33 player? How could this Asian pass be so accurate? It landed directly on the head of the opponent's striker? No difference at all?" "Coach! His name is Xia Yuan, and he is currently the top player in the assist list of the English Championship!"
