Chapter 133
In the turmoil of the outside world and the vortex of public opinion, Sheffield United set off for Manchester Bolton in a low-key manner.
At the press conference before the game, Speed answered the reporter's questions very humbly. The current team ranking third in the league standings is enough to make the team show off. It is more low-key to speak externally. The popularity has grown and word-of-mouth Naturally, we should also pay attention.
Of course, Speed's real idea is to hope that other teams will not "target" Sheffield United.
He can't say anything about relegation. After the Chelsea game, if the goal is relegation, the media will not believe it.
But at least keep a low profile, less hatred, and let the middle and lower reaches of the league focus more on a few traditional strong teams instead of fighting with Sheffield United. This is still very important.
But Bolton's head coach, Owen Coyle, said before the game that facing Sheffield United, they will go all out and strive to achieve a result that can satisfy the fans at home.
At present, Bolton has one win and three losses, and it is urgent to stop the decline. It seems that it is going to smash Sheffield United.
Well, West Bromwich Albion wants to get points from Sheffield United, and you Bolton also want to get points from Sheffield United.
In the first three games against the Premier League giants, Bolton did not say that he should go all out. Except for bullying the newly promoted Queens Park Rangers in the first game, Bolton sent three points to the Manchester City duo and Liverpool in the next three games. .
The speech made by the head coach of Bolton instantly made the players of Sheffield United a little upset.
But Speed can also understand, after all, as a coach, he wants the team to achieve a good result, especially when they lose consecutive games, it is really racking their brains to stop the decline.
In the first half of the season when Speed coached Sheffield United in the British Championship last season, it was a direct loss. He almost lost against strong teams.
But I understand it, but now Sheffield United also wants to score more points against the middle and lower teams. It hurts to be tied by West Bromwich Albion, and you want to come to Bolton, then Sheffield United still want to avoid relegation ?
Oh, by the way, speaking of relegation, after the four rounds of the league, Sheffield United has already accumulated a quarter of the relegation points. According to the relegation score line in the past few seasons, about [-] points can almost succeed in relegation.
So to play against a lower-level team like Bolton, you have to try to win as much as possible. If you play against a strong team, you can score points in every game.
On the afternoon of September 9, at the Reebok Stadium, Bolton's home stadium, players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel and stepped into the stadium. More than 17 Bolton fans at home began to cheer for the team.
Because Bolton and Sheffield United are relatively close, more than 3000 Sheffield United fans came to the away game with the team today.
After Li Mo was the last one to appear on the field, he waved his hand towards the visiting team's fans stand, which immediately aroused the cheers of the Sheffield United fans, but was quickly suppressed by the boos of the home fans.
Li Mo didn't care too much. For today's game, the whole team is very confident to win, and the mentality of the team is also very good now, and they will no longer underestimate their opponents. As long as there are no accidents, it will be no problem to win against Bolton.
Players from both sides shook hands, and then the game entered a countdown. After the captains of both sides had chosen sides, the referee sounded his whistle, and the fifth round of the Premier League, Sheffield United's away game against Bolton officially started.
In the first round of the league, Queens Park Rangers lost to Bolton at home, the score was still 0-4, so Sheffield United players still pay more attention to Bolton's offense.
After all, the old Sheffield United players know the strength of the Rangers, and the defense is still very good. I think Bolton is also superior in offense.
But after the game started, Bolton tried to grab the start, and Maguire directly pushed back the high ball, then took the ball and went to both sides, and was successfully defended by Medel and Matt Ridge.
This made the players of Sheffield United feel a little strange. I don't know if their defense is too strong now, or because Bolton's offense is too good. Could it be that Bolton got shit luck in the first round victory over the Rangers?
However, the players of Sheffield United did not get too entangled in this issue. Bolton failed to grab the start, so it was their turn to take over the ball.
Medel easily grabbed the ball, and then Sheffield United's midfield began to press up and try as a whole.
Drinkwater felt very relaxed. West Bromwich Albion made Sheffield United's midfield uncomfortable for at least 45 minutes in the last game. When it came to Bolton, there was a press, but the force of the press was like drizzle. Not for a while.
This is far from West Bromwich Albion. Brother Drinking Water took over control of the midfield with his teammates almost without any effort.
Seeing that Bolton couldn't compete, he quickly shrank across the board, leaving only one striker in the Sheffield United half.
Li Mo was a little confused, so he flinched at the beginning?Is this what Coach Bolton said to go all out?
And if you only leave a striker in the frontcourt, you can't hit a counterattack. At least you have to have a threat to get the ball. If a striker counterattacks, do you look down on Medel and Montgomery?
Shaking his head, Li Mo didn't think much about it. The midfielder Drinking Water and the others had already firmly controlled the ball. There was no need for him to retreat, and he directly hit the front of Bolton's penalty area.
But it should not be said, although the opening was very cowardly, but Bolton did a good job in targeting Li Mo.
A midfielder was in front of Li Mo, and a central defender was behind Li Mo. The treatment of double-teaming was directly arranged.
Li Mo is also used to this, and it's okay for the two of them to stare at him. He started to switch positions with Vardy and run alternately.
Bertrand and Matt Ridge took turns on the left, and Drinkwater kept passing the ball to the left. Bertrand finally had a chance to attack happily in this game. Very active.
In the 13th minute of the first half, Bertrand rushed directly to the left side of Bolton's penalty area after receiving the ball from Matt Ridge, and then made a low pass to make Bolton's defenders panic and kicked the ball out in a panic. He crossed the bottom line and gave Sheffield United a corner kick.
No. In the 18th minute, Bertrand took the ball on the wing again. This time he passed Bolton's full-back with the ball, then suddenly cut inside and crossed the ball to Bolton's penalty area. Drinkwater took a long shot, but it was a pity that the ball was confiscated by Bolton's goalkeeper.
In the 204th minute of the first half, Trippier got the ball in from the right, but the strength of the cross was a little too strong. Li Mo was caught in the defense and did not find a chance to take off, but the football flew past the back point, It was taken by Bertrand again.
Seeing this, Li Mo suddenly ran back and pulled away the two Bolton defenders. Bertrand made another low pass, and the football passed to the forward point. Vardy was running to pull away the defenders when Li Mo He jumped in smartly, just in time for Bertrand's pass, and with a light push, the football quickly rolled into the near corner of the goal.
1-0!
Bolton's persistence failed in less than 10 minutes.
Vardy scored his third goal in the league. After the goal, Vardy and Li Mo laughed and went to the corner flag area to celebrate with Bertrand. This was also Bertrand's first assist this season!
Li Mo did not contribute any statistics in this goal, but his running position directly took away two Bolton defensive players, which created space for Vardy to go forward, and this is where his threat lies.
Even if he doesn't score, as long as he is on the field, the opponent will have to keep a close eye on him, and one person is not enough to mark him. If there was only one person with Li Mo just now, then the person celebrating the goal now may be Li Mo. own up.
"Smart running position! Lee's threat is too great. Maybe Owen Coyle has repeatedly emphasized to his players that he should be strict with Lee before the game, but his players seem to be a little nervous. Lee's running Bolton's defence, Jamie Vardy, [-]rd goal of the season!"
The players of Sheffield United gathered together for a small celebration, and then dispersed quickly. Although they were happy, they were relatively restrained, and quickly returned to their positions, waiting for Bolton to kick off again.
In the locker room before the game, Li Mo and his teammates decided to settle the fight in the first half, at least to play 2-0, right?Otherwise, how can Bolton players lose confidence.
Speed was very satisfied with the good condition of his disciples. He stood on the sidelines and applauded with a smile. This time he did not signal the players to keep calm. The offense had already started, and it was time to go straight and score another goal.
Bolton's morale suffered a serious blow. It was agreed before the game that we should try our best to score points. It was less than 10 minutes into the half, and he pulled his hips. It seemed that Sheffield United played very easily. This made Bolton's The players were a little frustrated.
They knew that there was a gap in strength between themselves and Sheffield United's players, but they didn't expect that the gap was even bigger than they imagined.
In terms of detail handling and tactical execution, Sheffield United has done much better than them. This feeling is more intuitive and real for the players than for the audience.
But the game will continue, Bolton's players can only pack up their mood and start again.
After confirming that the opponent was not acting, but that the dishes were indeed real, Sheffield United naturally pressed the whole line.
Maybe the neutral fans watching the game will find it cruel, but for Sheffield United, this time is to take advantage of his illness to kill him.
Sheffield United's left and right sides began to insert in turn. Li Mo also retreated in the middle to act as a connection point. Sheffield United's combination of side and center has always been very good. Now facing the rookie Bolton, the offense is even more obvious. smooth.
In the No.401 minute of the first half, Li Mo and Vardy moved in the penalty area at the same time, disrupting Bolton's defense, Matrich cut inside decisively, and then volleyed successfully!
2-0!
Sheffield United made another victory, less than half time, although it was not obvious from the score, but on the scene, they completely defeated Bolton!
