Loftus Road had become a sea of joy, with Rangers' goal towards the end of the first half putting the home fans in a good mood.
They have not conceded more than one goal per game this season, and many games are often won 1:0 or 2:0.
Especially the opponent, Sheffield United's popular striker Li Mo, did not get any good chances throughout the first half, which made the Rangers fans feel even more proud.
At this time, Li Mo, who was sitting in the locker room, was still in a relatively calm mood.
He didn't think Speed's pre-match tactics were wrong.
Targeting the opponent's midfielder, choking Tarabut to death, he and Vardy waited for an opportunity to fight back. Can this tactic be wrong?
The conceded goal in the first half can only be said to have been succeeded by the opposing superstar's tactics.
This is common in football games.
But now, when Speed was deploying new tactics, almost all Sheffield United players looked towards Li Mo.
They are about to attack in the second half, and whether they can equalize the score as soon as possible depends on Li Mo's state today.
Matthew Lorton will switch positions with Stephen Quinn in the second half to play a sweeping midfielder and mark Tarabut.
And in the transition between offense and defense, how to pass the ball to Li Mo as soon as possible and how to increase the number of attacks are the problems that Speed has to solve now.
Everyone's mood is good, not very depressed. After all, they are facing the No. [-] team in the league. It is not a big deal to fall behind by one goal at halftime.
However, this game can be regarded as a test of Sheffield United's current strength. Everyone wants to attack and fight to see how far they can push Queens Park Rangers.
When the half-time break was over and the Sheffield United players returned to the field again, Rangers coach Neil Warnock was secretly surprised to see them talking and laughing.
He thought that the Sheffield United players would look serious and gather together to cheer, and even thought that they would enter the field full of fighting spirit and enthusiasm after the midfield adjustment.
But he didn't expect that Sheffield United players would be so relaxed.
It seems that Speed has finished kneading this team. This relaxed posture is a sign of confidence in the team and in himself.
Neil Warnock frowned slightly. It seems that the second half will not be easy.
After the kick-off in the second half, Drinkwater and Montgomery partnered with double midfielders. Stephen Quinn stood on the side of the midfield, and Matthew Lorton went directly to Tarabut.
Then, amidst the boos of the fans in the audience, Matthew Lorton smiled and followed Tarabut.
Well, no matter which side you switch to now, the first person Tarabut will face after taking the ball will be Matthew Lorton.
This made Tarabut feel proud and unhappy at the same time.
The opponent's use of this man-marking tactic to deal with him is a recognition of his strength, but Matthew Lorton's physical fitness is too good, and the defense is also difficult to deal with. It will be difficult for him to perform in the second half.
Seeing that Tarabut was marked to death, the Rangers' midfielder also quickly adjusted, and the avant-garde Ufalin took over the possession of the ball.
The game between the two sides finally became smoother. Sheffield United no longer blindly strangled the middle, but started an active attack.
Drinkwater's long-range shot in the No. 408 minute opened the prelude to the confrontation between the two sides.
Although Tarabut is stared at by Matthew Lorton, Routledge's wing assault ability should not be underestimated. In addition, the Rangers' striker Helgusen who scored ten goals this season, their offense is still strong. There is no small threat.
Sheffield United completely trusted their defense, and the midfielders put all their strength on it, even Montgomery was no exception.
The risk of doing so is very high. The reduction of the midfielder's investment in defense will make the defender frequently face the impact of the opponent's offensive players.
But while taking risks, Sheffield United has more opportunities to attack.
Vardy started his tireless interspersed movement.
In the previous game, he used one goal after another to tell the defenders of the British Championship that when they choose to double-team Li Mo, they need to bear the threat of being shot out of the open space by him.
The rangers' defenders will naturally not underestimate Vardy, but at the same time they have to face the impact of Li Mo, and they suddenly feel the pressure suddenly increase.
And before the Rangers' defense was able to keep so few conceded goals, their midfielder Derry contributed a lot.
The veteran of the British Championship, relying on his rich experience and defensive skills, built a wall of interception in front of the Rangers' defense.
Although he is 33 years old, he is physically fit and in good physical condition, and has always maintained a high level.
In the first half, Li Mo rarely had the opportunity to hold the ball. Although he had some difficulty defending Li Mo, he felt good.
At the beginning of the second half, after the two sides slowly entered the state, Sheffield United looked for Li Mo when they got the ball, and Derry was still the first to interfere.
However, after Li Mo played the ball reasonably several times, he suddenly held the ball and made an unreasonable breakthrough, which made the veteran understand one thing: Li Mo can't stop Li Mo from advancing!
"Lee caught the ball, turned around, Sean Derry came up! He seemed to want to interfere with Lee, Lee started sprinting on the sideline, WOOOOOW!!! What did we see? Sean Derry was directly overturned by Li Mo!"
The mood of the commentator was suddenly aroused by Li Mo's actions. The ranger's veteran's lower back was eaten raw by Li Mo's crushing breakthrough method!
Wu Falin quickly retreated to defend, but how could Li Mo miss this opportunity, Derry was a little careless, and dared to fight him one-on-one, he took a few steps of the ball, and he was about to enter the Rangers' defensive third zone!
Matt Ridge on the left and Vardy who was close to the middle began to sprint in. The Rangers had only three defenders left in the half, and a full back was chasing Matt Ridge.
The frontcourt is almost three-on-four, a great opportunity for Sheffield United!
Seeing this, the defenders of the Rangers didn't dare to press forward at the first time, and they chose to move back as a whole.
This is actually a sensible choice. In the face of this kind of offensive, wait for the midfielder to return and interfere with the opponent's ball holder, and the crisis will almost be disintegrated.
But after they retreated into the restricted area, they ignored one thing.
Although Li Mo's goals in the penalty area accounted for most of his total goals, his threat area included the area at the top of the penalty area!
He represented Sheffield United in the Championship for the first time, and the goal he scored was a volley from outside the penalty area.
Li Mo's mouth twitched when he saw the actions of the Rangers defenders.
This is, looking down on him? !
The running positions of Vardy and Matt Ridge have opened up a lot of space for him.
After dribbling the ball to the top of the penalty area, Li Mo adjusted his pace, then bent his bow and set his arrows, and swung his right leg back high, revealing the rough muscles on his thigh.
The moment his instep touched the middle and lower part of the football, the Rangers defender hurriedly saved the penalty area, but it was too late.
A muffled sound sounded, and then the football whistled, like a shell fired, and went straight towards the upper left corner of the Rangers goal!
Without any arc, without any fall, Li Mo's shot was powerful, extremely confident and domineering!
The Rangers goalkeeper didn't respond at all, he didn't even raise his hand. When he reacted to the football whistling past his ears, the only thing he could do was to stay where he was, and then look back .
After the football hit the net, it rubbed and rotated, causing the goalposts and crossbar to vibrate non-stop. All the Rangers fans in the field seemed to be choked. At this moment, the Loftus Road Stadium was dead silent!
Li Mo opened his arms and ran towards the sideline. He roared loudly, venting his depression that he barely touched the ball in the first half.
Speed jumped up from the coach's bench, then stood on the sidelines with his arms raised and celebrated wildly with the assistant coach.
As for you, the Rangers can score star goals?
You have Tarabut, we also have Li Mo!
Come on, it's a big deal to stab each other!
So what if we are number one in the league, today we, Sheffield United, want to be number one in the league!
Brothers, throw all the votes over, please support!
