Chapter 81
The game officially started.
As soon as West Ham United came on, they showed strong pressure.
The opponent had two defensive midfielders, which was stronger than Burton, so their midfield was quickly defeated by the opponent's offensive.
"Hold on!"
"Baselli, go ahead!"
"You can't count on Sun Yan!"
Li Yanqing has been directing the team from the sidelines. Fortunately, the team has only been suppressed for the time being, and no major problems have occurred.
This is thanks to Payet being a left-back, not a right-back, so Enzo can still hold on for the time being.......
Li Yanqing's tactics were simple, defending.
This was the old tactic he used last season. There was no other way. When the gap between him and his opponent was too big, he could only shrink back.
Murphy was the only one left in front. Mathias had retreated to the outside of the penalty area.
"Keep an eye on the good guys!"
"Sun Yan! Especially you!"
Sun Yan's task was heavy. He and Miller were required to try their best to defend Payet. Although they had an advantage in numbers, it was still easy for problems to occur.
For example, in the twelfth minute
, Payet received the ball and easily passed Miller.
Sun Yan remembered Hart's instructions and came to the opponent's offensive route early.
But it was useless.
【[Dribble past many people]
With this skill, Payet passed Miller and Sun Yan, and even Baselli who came to fill in the position.......
"It's over!"
Li Yanqing covered his forehead. The opponent broke into his penalty area as easily as crossing the road. He easily ran out of a single knife.
Then, Joe Hart suddenly appeared in front of the opponent.
No way?
Really ran up to fill the position?
Li Yanqing was terrified. Fortunately, this was not the activation of [filling the position].
It was [a master-level abandoning the goal].
Hart bravely blocked in front of the opponent, then quickly ran to the bottom and hugged the ball.
Payet had just passed Baselli and had no reaction to the goalkeeper's advance attack. He was blocked on the penalty area line.
"Pretty Hart!"
"But do less of this kind of action, it's very dangerous!"
As the head coach, Li Yanqing encouraged Hart's bravery, but it's not good to keep doing this, it's too easy to get injured.
Hart in front of the goal took a look at the defensive player and spread his hands in confusion.
As if to say,"What else can I do?"
In response, the former remained silent.
If only he knew what to do.
Putting everyone on this side will definitely be able to stop Payet, but wouldn't the other side become a wide road?
The crisis is not over yet.
In addition to Payet, the opponent's forward is not a decoration, and it makes Bradford very uncomfortable.
Enzo is busy defending Lanzini, and it is difficult to get away to take care of his own left side.
It was only after Quinn went over to defend that the situation got better.
The game came to the 30th minute.
The good news is that Burton has not lost the ball yet.
The bad news is that it will be soon.
The opponent completed seven shots in half an hour, and several times they were very close to scoring.
Thanks to Bradford and Baselli for fighting hard, they basically used their bodies to block the shots.
Hart also fully demonstrated his strength in this game. It seems that [substitution] does not affect him much.
Normal attack cannot defeat Joe Hart!
Li Yanqing just felt relieved when he saw Payet break through his own right side again single-handedly.
Before Baselli arrived, he directly chose to raise his foot and shoot!
【[Master heavy gunner]!
The ball passed Baselli, who was unable to react, and Hart, who was halfway through the attack, and went straight into the blind corner of the goal.
"World wave!"
"The goal was scored by Payet! An extremely accurate long shot!"
"Poor Hart! He played very well in this game, but he still lost the ball in the end!"
"Burton is one goal behind!"
The commentator seemed to feel that Hart's fate was unfair, and also seemed to have some teasing taste.
Li Yanqing was prepared for this. He did not blame the players, they had tried their best.
The huge gap in strength made them collapse when facing the opponent.
He finally saw the power of the [Master Heavy Gunner].
But is it possible that this goal was related to Hart's physique?
The opponent just scored a goal and celebrated slowly.
Moyes also applauded his team and smiled proudly at Li Yanqing.
They are West Ham United!
And you are just a second-rate team in the Championship!
Li Yanqing seemed to hear such a voice
"Li, why don't we replace Nasri and let him have a rest. It's a waste of energy to stay up there."
"The league is more important to us, and the primary goal this season is to be promoted."
Chris was helpless. He was not a person who gave up easily, but sometimes he had to stay rational.
Everyone could see how big the gap in strength between the two sides was.
"I will think about it......"
Before Li Yanqing finished speaking, he heard the commentator on the scene shouting excitedly.
"It’s tied!"
"Less than two minutes after conceding the goal, Burton equalized!"
"This is their first attack!"
"The score now is one to one!"
"What happened?"Li Yanqing didn't pay attention to the situation on the scene. He and Chris were considering whether to give up the game.
Suddenly the score was tied?
"Nasri kicked off and passed the ball to Mathias"
"Then he broke through and passed the ball to Murphy"
"Murphy made a triangle pass in front of the goal and Matthias scored the goal."
Neville, who had just joined the coaching staff, explained excitedly.
"They were just so great!"
"After being suppressed for half the game, the opponent had no time to react!"
"Great, great job!" Li Yanqing also cheered loudly.
There was no reason to be unhappy. The first goal that Matthias scored after joining the team was against West Ham United!
Murphy, Nasri and others also played very hard.
He actually considered giving up the game in advance?
What a stupid idea.
He should have believed in his players!
Even if the opponent was West Ham, so what?
The players wanted to win, there was no reason for him to give in first!
"Chris!"
"Don’t tell me you give up anymore!"
"Otherwise I would be so sorry for them!"
"My dear boys!"
