On the second day of the Sino-Iranian battle, York City.

When Pan Yi woke up from a full sleep, he was still immersed in the carnival atmosphere of winning in front of [-] Iranians last night, and the cheers of thousands of Dragon Kingdom fans seemed to be ringing in his ears.

After the team finished playing Iran, they flew back to BJ from Tehran overnight, and then disbanded on the spot.

Because the players need to return to the club as soon as possible to prepare for their respective league games, and European internationals like Wu Lei and Zhang Yuning naturally fly directly from Iran to Germany and the Netherlands.

As for Pan Yi, of course he returned to York City with Lin Liangming.

But even in the UK, Pan Yi can feel the joy that this game has brought to the people of the whole country.

Three consecutive victories, and even defeating the two major national football players of South Korea and Iran, this makes the news about the national football firmly occupy the top few hot searches, stable and unshakable.

When Pan Yi opened the AB station to look at his homepage, he also found that there were tens of thousands of comments under the recently updated video.

In fact, Pan Yi did not shoot a video about the national football team. After all, he is not the top leader in the national football team in theory.

So his latest video on the AB station is actually about the FA Cup match between York City and Swansea City, which is probably the scene of everyone celebrating after the promotion.

But Longguo fans don't care about these, they just keep commenting below:
"God Pan Yi, I kneel down for you!"

"You are the savior of the national football team!"

"Pan Yi, I want to have monkeys with you, lots and lots of monkeys!..."

In fact, Pan Yi also found that many of the people who come here to comment are not fans. For example, some of them still don't understand what offside is, what formation means and so on.

But this does not prevent them from putting their greatest enthusiasm into it.

This is football!
It just has the power to unite everyone!
For example, in the 98 World Cup, when the French team won the championship, it is said that the French GNP increased by several percentage points that year.

In 2001, when the national football team qualified for the World Cup qualifiers for the first time, it was also a carnival for the whole people.

At this time, it is no longer important to care about who is a fan or not.

Why is the World Cup the largest human event in the world?
It's not just because it's a sporting event, it's actually more like a large gathering, bringing together people of different skin colors, beliefs, and countries, and using a peaceful way to achieve the most favorite competition of mankind.

"Play football, not war."

This may be the greatest meaning of football.

Pan Yi looked at the comments happily. This kind of happiness really never happened when he was coaching at the club.

When a game is endowed with the meaning of the country, it is really completely different from ordinary games...

Of course, the reason why the national football fans are so happy is that apart from defeating Iran and South Korea, the two "bad guys" who have bullied the national football team for many years, another important reason is that the current situation of the national football team in the group stage has become more optimistic.

第七轮的结果是韩国1:0叙利亚,乌兹别克斯坦1:0卡塔尔,伊朗1:2龙国。

In this way, after the seventh round, the points ranking of Group A is as follows:

1、伊朗4胜2平1负14分。

2、韩国4胜1平2负13分。

3. Uzi has 4 wins, 2 losses and 12 points.

4、龙国3胜1平3负10分。

5、叙利亚2胜2平3负8分。

6. Qatar has 1 win, 6 losses and 3 points.

After being undefeated by the Dragon Kingdom, Iran was also followed by South Korea and Uzbekistan. They need to play more steadily in the next three games.

After Qatar lost to Uzbekistan, it has bid farewell to the 2018 World Cup ahead of schedule.

As for the Long Guo team, they finally surpassed Syria and rose to the fourth place in the standings!

Although it is said that if you want to win the top two, it still depends on the faces of others, especially the results of Iran and South Korea, but at least in the competition for the third place in the group, Long Guo has firmly held hope in his own hands!

It seems that they are still 2 points away from Uzbekistan, but they have a head-to-head confrontation in the back, and Longguo is still playing at home.

In other words, as long as Longguo can seize this opportunity to defeat the opponent, it can overwhelm Uzbekistan with its own strength to occupy the third place in the group!

In general, it is a miracle that the Dragon Kingdom team has gone from being hopeless at the beginning and on the verge of being eliminated, to being able to keep three, two, or even one.
Because of this, how important the victory over Iran looks now, the gap between one point and three points is really big!
Now all over the country are celebrating, from the most authoritative party magazines and newspapers to ordinary market tabloids, all of them are focusing on reporting this victory.

And anyone can see that in just a few months, the national football team has transformed from a sarcastic clown to a hero praised by everyone, and who is the biggest contributor.

Therefore, the reputation of Lippi's coaching team has really skyrocketed!
And Pan Yi's domestic influence is even more prosperous.

It's very simple. Pan Yi's role in this team can be seen and heard by everyone, whether it is in the live broadcast or in the mouths of various coaches and players.

And Pan Yi is a native of Longguo. As the best head coach recognized in the world, he is enough for the people of the country. Now he is leading his own national team to defeat strong enemies. Of course, everyone treats him more Highly respected.

It can be said that media reporters and fans all over the country now worship him as a god!
Think about it, what was it like when Milu led the team to the World Cup?
And this time Pan Yi came to turn the tide at the most critical moment of the national football team, and it seemed that the difficulty was much higher than that of Milu at that time.

If he can really bring the national football team into the World Cup in the end, then Milu is really not as good as him.

If Pan Yi's status in world football is integrated, it will be even worse!
However, whether the national football team will really create a miracle in the end and break through the group stage in one fell swoop is not yet known so quickly.

National team matches, especially qualifiers such as the World Cup and the European Cup, are all played out between league matches, and often last for several months, or even a year or two.

It is now March, and the next eighth round away game against Syria will be played on June 3, with an interval of three months.

Then the ninth round at home against Uzbekistan will be on August 8, and it will take more than two months.

The last is the tenth round, away to Qatar on September 9.

Looking at the first round started on September 9st last year, so it will take a whole year to play the top 1 in Asia alone. If you add the previous top 12, it will be delayed even longer.

So Pan Yi can only put the national football affairs aside and pay attention to the situation of the York City club.
-
When Pan Yi returned to Longguo and followed the national football team to destroy South Korea and Iran, York City had already played four League One matches.

Although Lin Liangming and Kulusevsky's promotion of the national team has greatly affected the attack power of York City's two wings, Scaloni still commanded the team to achieve a good record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. .

With 7 points in hand, this also brought York City's points to 41 points after 93 rounds of League One.

In second place is still Sheffield United, with 85 points.

But that's not what York City cares about.

More importantly, Bolton, who is ranked third, now only has 79 points!
93-79=14 points, and a total of 46 rounds of League One, only five games are completely over.

This means that if York City wins in the next round, they will qualify for the next season's Championship four rounds ahead of schedule!

Even a tie would be enough.Because York City's goal difference is 25 goals higher than that of Bolton, it is undoubtedly a dream to chase so many goal difference in five games.

It is against this background that York City ushered in the challenge of Bristol Rovers at home.

However, Bristol Rovers is not a good thing.

Although they are currently only ranked ninth in the standings, the gap with No.6 is not that big, and they still have a good chance of reaching the play-offs.

Therefore, they also want to use this battle with York City, the top team, to boost morale and complete their goals in one go!
On the contrary, York City obviously thought too much when faced with the "finishing kick" that could soon be promoted to the British Championship.

After the start of the game, Bristol Rangers turned away and completely overwhelmed York City in terms of momentum.

Under the watchful eyes of nearly 10 fans at home, Bristol Wanderers broke through York City's defense twice in a row, which was not easily captured even in front of Premier League teams.

0:2, the big red scoreboard on the West Siberia Stadium looks so shocking!
This surprised Pan Yi in the stands.

After all, because today's game has the meaning of "full performance in one battle", Scaloni also sent all the main players.

Baker advances forward, Kulusevski and Amon are separated on the two wings, the midfield three will be Karlstrom, Rice and Alonso, and the defense four will still be Alphonso Davies, West Mann, De Ligt, Fu Anjianyang, goalkeeper Isaacson.

Except for Lin Liangming, who played two full games against South Korea and Iran, to sit on the bench and rest, everyone who could play was played.

But what I didn't expect was that the Bristol Rovers played very fiercely today, and the speed of the two wingers was also flying fast. In contrast, the reactions of the York City players seemed to be half a beat slower.

A breakthrough from the wing, a cross from the bottom, and a shot from the center.

It's all the same routine. In just 10 minutes, York City was scored twice by Bristol Rangers.

Everyone stared blankly as the opposing players celebrated at their fans' side, then ran all the way back to their own half.

When they passed by the York City players, they still had very disgusting smiles on their faces, as if to say: "Hey, is this York City, which ranks first in the League One? This is the semi-final of the FA Cup." Yorktown? But that's all..."

Scaloni on the sidelines was very angry at the performance of his players. If De Zerby hadn't held him down, he might have torn down the ceiling of the coach's bench.

"Don't put too much pressure on them!" De Zelby persuaded, "there have been many games recently, and the physical recovery is not ideal. In addition, the pressure of this game is too high. They are still young, and they can't bear it!"

Scaloni gradually calmed down.

He also admitted that the current situation is largely due to his optimism.

Ranked first, the FA Cup has entered the semi-finals, the morale is like a rainbow, and the ninth-ranked team is playing at home. What reason would they lose?
This led to his lack of preparation before the game. At least he didn't have a good grasp of the players' psychology. In addition, he was a bit restrained in tactics, which made the game passive from the beginning.

But how to reverse the current situation?

Scaloni has a headache!

Pan Yi in the stands also had a headache with the same style.

He felt that there were too many problems exposed in this game, especially in terms of the psychological quality of the players, and York City did not respond enough in this regard.

When you are only one step away from success, how can you calm yourself down, treat it as an ordinary game, and then deal with it easily?

This is a problem that many young players will face, and it has become a hurdle in the growth of many players.

This has also led to the current momentum of York City being completely suppressed.

Don't underestimate this kind of momentum. Sometimes a team of comparable strength can score a big score, relying on a momentum.

York City has a long-standing arrogant momentum. With this momentum, they can even beat Arsenal and Tottenham, and they can also achieve reversals and win tough battles time and time again.

But once the momentum is suppressed, York City is like a disarmed soldier, standing in the hail of bullets waiting to be shot.

Clarke, the head coach of Bristol Rovers, is very smart and keen. He knows that his team's strength will definitely not be able to overwhelm York City, and the opponent has home court advantage, so he will definitely despise himself a little bit.

Therefore, unlike most of the other teams that came to West Siberia, he came to do the opposite. He put pressure on the home team when he came up, and then he attacked York City's weaknesses from the beginning to prevent York City from slowing down. angry.

Especially the wing defended by Alfonso Davis. Although he is fast and returns to the defense in a timely manner, he still focuses on offense and light defense after all, and his defensive position and interception ability are still a little bit worse.

Under the strong attack of Bristol Rovers, York City's left side was completely suppressed, and as a whole, York City was also dragged into the rhythm of Bristol Rovers, and was dragged by the nose.

"The left-back has to make a change here, otherwise it will be too late if he is scored again."

Pan Yi has found the answer to the question.

The psychological problems of the players can only be adjusted by the young people themselves, to feel, and then to improve.

And tactically, it can be dealt with.

Moreover, if the correct tactics can restrain the opponent's performance, it will also help the recovery of the self-confidence of the players, and it can also help the young players' psychological adjustment from the side.

It's just that Scaloni doesn't seem to be ready to make any adjustments to the formation yet.

After all, York City is now behind, and Alfonso Davis is the team's most important wing attack weapon. At this time, Scaloni will definitely not want to move this position.

and so……

Pan Yi took out his phone.

Under normal circumstances, he would not interfere with Scaloni's decision, but this time it was a bit different.

Today, [-] York City fans came here happily to witness York City beat Bristol Rangers at home.

Everyone knows that as long as they beat Bristol Rovers, York City will enter the British Championship four rounds ahead of schedule. This is another historic moment!

This is also the highest point that York City Club can reach in its history!

Pan Yi didn't want to disappoint so many fans.

The next game is an away game against Swindon Town. In fact, if you win the next game, you can still enter the Championship, but there is still a big difference between winning away from home and winning at home...

Even York City club officials have prepared some celebration ceremony.

I can only feel wronged by Scaloni, otherwise if the kick continues like this, if a tragedy happens, all the people of Yorkshire will not be able to sleep well today!
-
"What, boss's phone?" Scaloni took the phone in surprise and listened.

Then he nodded slowly.

Obviously, Pan Yi was analyzing the current situation and hidden dangers with him, and gave him his own suggestions.

Then, the frown on Scaloni's face loosened.

Sure enough, he is the most knowledgeable boss in the world!

When I was a little overwhelmed, I came to help in time.

And this tactic is not particularly complicated, the purpose is to strengthen the attack;

But in terms of specific implementation, it is true that there are still a lot of people to be mobilized, no wonder Scaloni didn't think of it for a while.

That is to put Alfonso Davis forward and move directly to the position of left winger to make full use of his offensive ability.

As for the left back, Fu Anjianyang is asked to move from the right to the left to play, so that the defense on this side can be stabilized.

At this time, Rice sank to the central defender position and played double central defender with De Ligt, while Westerman played right back.

At the same time, Kulusevski also retreated from the right winger position to the midfielder, and Amon moved from the left to the right.

After such a "big shift in the universe", York City still maintains the 4-3-3 formation unchanged, but the players in most positions have changed, and the offensive combination has also become Alfonso Davis+ Baker + Armand.

More importantly, the full-backs on the two wings of York City are players who are good at defense, and they can well block Bristol Rovers' rapid wing attacks.

In addition, after such adjustments, Bristol Rovers' preparations before the game will be largely ineffective, because suddenly the opposing players have changed!

Scaloni has to admit that this is indeed a very good change.

It's a little risky, but worth a try!
Thinking about it, Scaloni looked up at the stands behind him, and Pan Yi was sitting not far behind them, looking at him with concern at this time, and nodded at him, as if saying, just bet on this a handful!
Scaloni gritted his teeth, walked to the sidelines, and began to deploy this brand new formation!
It didn't take long for the players on the court to receive new instructions from Scaloni and immediately follow the coach's arrangement.

After this series of adjustments, York City really began to stabilize the situation.

Although Bristol Rovers still play exclusively on the left, under the marking of Fu Anjianyang, the opponent's winger Billon Moore hardly got any chances, especially after several fierce but accurate tackles by Fu Anjianyang , he was completely withered.

The threat from the left was gone, and York City finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The head coach of Bristol Rovers also asked the team to strengthen the defense in a timely manner. Obviously, in the first half they only planned to keep the two-goal lead.

However, York City obviously didn't intend to let it go like this, and was put in two ways. If it doesn't find some places, it won't be York City!

"Here, give it to me!"

Alfonso Davies raised his hand and yelled when Alonso got the ball.

Although he often puts in assists when he plays as a full-back, it is rare to play an authentic winger today, which makes him very happy.

Even now that the score is behind, he looks more excited than ever.

Of course, in fact, with Alfonso Davis' ability, even if he really plays a winger, he won't be bad. Even when he is in the Canadian national team in the future, he will often appear in the winger position.

And Alonso obviously trusted him too, passing the ball directly to his feet with one kick.

Alfonso Davies leaned on the opponent and stopped the ball skillfully. At first he pretended to move towards the left line, but suddenly he knocked the ball back with his right foot. With a pull of his left foot, he was tricked into shifting his center of gravity It is no longer possible for the defensive player to the left to stop him.

After Alfonso Davis passed one of the opponent's players, he was not in a hurry at all, because he could clearly see that Karlstrom and Kulusevski had already come up, while high center Baker was Firmly occupying the most advantageous position in the penalty area, under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly a bit of a waste of opportunity to break through hastily.

But the Bristol Rovers players saw him rushing so fast and thought he was going to move forward, so they immediately stepped forward to block the position, instead leaking the space behind.

Alfonso Davis saw the opportunity and directly passed the ball to the center with a cross.

Karlstrom missed on purpose, and Kulusevsky, who followed behind him, caught up with him, stopped the ball, and shot angrily, all in one go!
The ball drew a strange arc in the air, then quickly fell in the penalty area, rubbing the crossbar and hitting the net, 2:1!

In the 35th minute of the first half, York City finally breathed a sigh of relief and recovered a goal!
The West Siberian Stadium was filled with cheers!

This goal greatly inspired the fans of York City, but also boosted the morale of York City.

Especially for the York City players whose aura was suppressed before, once the pressure is released, the anger caused by the rebound will be enough to crush any opponent.

At this time, Scaloni also seized on the opponent's loopholes. Knowing that their right back was strong in offense and weak in defense, and had insufficient defensive capabilities, he asked Alphonso Davies to continue attacking the wing and seize the opponent's loopholes. Vulnerabilities are in hot pursuit.

This time, Bristol Rovers behaved like a snake caught seven inches. The striker couldn't break through York City's defense, but York City clung to the loopholes in the back line, so they played all kinds of things. uncomfortable.

After struggling for 5 minutes, Bristol Rovers announced that the goal had fallen again.

This time it was Karlström's long-range shot, which equalized from a cross from Alonso on the edge of the box.

After the score was equalized, York City's aura surged up and down, and on the scene, it showed a kind of fierceness of a tiger coming out of the gate.

In the 45th minute, at the end of the first half, Fu Anjianyang successfully intercepted the ball from the left, dribbled the ball forward, and then handed it to Alfonso Davis in front.

Alfonso Davies took the ball with his back and knocked it back to Karlström who followed him in the back row, who then passed it to Kulusevski.

Kulusevsky looked up and saw Fu Anjianyang who was still running towards the bottom line at a glance. He immediately passed a ball behind him and directly found Fu Anjianyang who succeeded in anti-offside.

After he stopped the ball, he adjusted and before the opponent's full-back arrived, he passed the ball into the penalty area with his big foot.

Baker is like a nail in every attack, firmly nailed in the opponent's penalty area, and Bristol Rovers are not at all sloppy with the top scorer in League One, and often even arrange two A tall player is near him.

But even so, Baker still found an opportunity, pinpointed the location of Fu Anjianyang's cross, and hit the head-on head-on.

Bristol Rovers goalkeeper Purdy, who was standing at the near post, reacted instinctively to save Baker's ball towards the far post.

But at the moment the goalkeeper landed, he saw a red figure approaching from far away. He kicked the ball he had thrown, then frantically raised his arms in celebration, ran towards the stands where the fans were, and Also excitedly doing some exaggerated celebrations.

It was Alfonso Davies!

Alfonso Davis, who played forward today, scored a go-ahead goal for York City, 3:2!

Pan Yi, like all the York City fans in the stands, fought from the stands at the moment of scoring a goal, shouting loudly, and the team song of York City immediately rang out in the stands.

Gradually, the singing spread throughout the West Siberia Stadium!

York City achieved another great reversal in this crucial game that determines whether they can be promoted to the British Championship!
