Chapter 64
Two days later, in the first game of the second half of the league, Burton played against Sheffield Wednesday at home.
After this game, it was the third round of the FA Cup, where they played Sheffield United.
Then there was the league match against their arch-rivals Huddersfield.
Li Yanqing was quite satisfied with the schedule.
His squad was almost complete, and it was just the right time to face their arch-rivals after two games of running-in.
He sent Enzo and Hart into this game, and there was nothing much to say, as long as they were in good shape, they would definitely be the main players.
In the first half of the season, they only ended up drawing with Sheffield Wednesday, a result he was very dissatisfied with.
This time he must let them see how powerful Burton is!
At the beginning of the game, Burton's offensive was extremely fierce
"Go ahead, press forward, and try to shoot more!"
""Give the ball to Nasri!"
Li Yanqing likes to direct the team on the sidelines, and this game was no exception.
He waved his hand on the sidelines at the first opportunity and asked all the attacking players to press forward.
The only ones in the back were Enzo, Sun Yan, and Bradford.
In the seventh minute, Nasri passed the ball to Jamie on the wing, who directly lifted the ball into the penalty area.
Unfortunately, Murphy was standing inside. He was only 175 cm tall and could not get a header at all.
In the end, the ball was grabbed by the opponent's defender, who kicked it into the empty space in the midfield.
The opponent's forward appeared there at some point, and ran forward desperately after receiving the ball.
"A nice long pass!"
"Sheffield Wednesday striker Mathias received the ball!"
"There is only one defender left in front of him. Can he make a one-on-one run?"The commentator, who originally thought it would be a dull game, slammed the table excitedly.
Burton is okay. Although they are also mainly defensive, they sometimes play offensive games.
But Sheffield Wednesday is a team that does not take the initiative to attack. They like to play counterattacks to win.
Compared to games where both sides play in a dull style, they certainly prefer passionate offensive battles from the start.
Bradford stared at the ball intently and turned to intercept Mathias as soon as possible.
But his turning speed is also quite worrying. The opponent seized the opportunity at this moment and lightly knocked on it to complete a beautiful pass.
"Matthias!"
"It's over! A very exciting man-ball match......"
The commentator suddenly fell silent in the middle of the conversation.
Matthias had just run over and immediately stopped where he was.
The player came over, but where did the ball go?
Looking along the path the ball should have taken, he saw a figure running towards Sheffield Wednesday's penalty area with the ball.
It was Enzo!
He had just run to the side of the two players in advance, and then intercepted the ball directly when the opponent's player and ball were separated.
""Great break!" Li Yanqing waved his fist excitedly.
Enzo's basketball IQ doesn't look like that of a 16-year-old, but rather sophisticated and calm.
These are rare qualities for a defensive player!
And they spent less than three million on such a player!
While praising Enzo, Li Yanqing did not forget that the team still needed to find a striker.
In his eyes, this Mathias was actually pretty good.
Name: Marco Mathias
Age: 27.
Status: Good.
Fatigue value: 25%.
Injury probability: 10%.
Entries: [Man-ball separation】,【[Fast horse on the wing].
Just looking at the entry, he is better than Jamie, with an extra skill [passing the ball with the man], and his age is just right.
Observe, if the performance is stable, Li Yanqing plans to make an offer and see.
Anyway, Ferchal didn't give himself any better options.
In the 30th minute, the deadlock of the game was finally broken.
Nasri's long shot knocked on the opponent's goal.
As for Sheffield Wednesday, they also played very hard, and they got a lot of good opportunities in this situation.
But they soon discovered that the opponent's defense was too difficult to deal with!
Cooperating with that Chinese kid made them suffer.
One harassment, the other pressing, plus the opponent's captain was still blocking the route in the middle, blocking most of the attack.
They were counterattacking again, and they didn't invest too much manpower.......
After finally rushing to the front of the goal, it was still Hart standing there.
In England, everyone knows Joe Hart.
He has played for the national team more than a hundred times!
Although he lost his main position in Manchester City and his condition has declined, it does not mean that his strength is not good.
It is more because Guardiola likes to use a goalkeeper who can pass the ball. At the beginning of the second half, Sheffield Wednesday lost another goal.
They simply let go completely, and the head coach asked several central midfielders to rush up to participate in the attack.
In response, Li Yanqing asked Burton to retract their formation.
There was no need to continue attacking with a two-goal lead.
Moreover, if the opponent had more people, their backcourt might not be able to hold up.
The active Matthias was replaced in the 70th minute.
He almost despaired in this game.
He tried no less than ten attacks, most of which were intercepted by the opponent.
The remaining few shooting opportunities were also easily missed due to interference, and only one or two hit the goal frame.
In the end, it was easily blocked by Hart.
And his teammates also played very depressed.
They were not good at attacking first, and they became less good at playing football after Burton gave up the offensive.
There were not as many opportunities as in the first half.
In the end, the score was 2-0.
The players performed well, and Li Yanqing was very satisfied with the current situation.
Enzo has been training with the team for a while and has integrated perfectly into the team.
As for Hart, it remains to be seen.
This is his first game in Burton, but he spent most of the time playing with the post by himself.
Li Yanqing even doubted whether he had been warming up during the game.
......
After the game, Chris took out a piece of paper and handed it to him.
"These are some of the recent signings of some teams, take a look"
"More than six Championship clubs have spent more than £50 million on signings in the past two days......."
"The scary thing is, I'm not surprised.��"
"I'm getting used to it." Li Yanqing shrugged, feeling helpless, but soon he started laughing.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, Chris."
"Since the decline of Serie A, the Premier League and La Liga have become the hottest leagues in the world."
"We should be happy, this gimmick will make all the clubs more money"
"As for strength, although Enzo and Hart didn't cost us much, their strength is no less than that of players of this value."
"What's more, we still have 10 million in hand."
"The Chinese guy named Chen something......"Chris thought of Chen Yi, and he also heard what happened from Baker.
"Don't worry, he's dead." When Li Yanqing mentioned him, his tone suddenly turned cold.
"We just need to beat Huddersfield every time."
"As for him, he will be finished by then."
"Eh? Why? The other party must be quite rich, right?"Chris didn't quite understand the logic behind this.
"Keep it a secret for now, Chris, I can't tell you the reason yet"
"Also, don't say he is Chinese anymore. I just learned that he changed his nationality to Citibank ten years ago......."
