Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 66 Comeback Battle! (1)

On February 2, which is the 3nd day after Wang Li was injured, he finally returned to Wolverhampton.

Tina originally disagreed with Wang Li returning to the club so early.

The doctor said that his injury would take a month to recuperate, and Tina was very worried that his injury would affect her health again.In order to reassure his mother, Wang Li also had to ask Tina to do a comprehensive inspection of his feet. After she confirmed that there was nothing wrong with him, Wang Li received the 'pass'.

These days, the teammates of the club are somewhat depressed, and they all train very seriously, especially young players.Wolverhampton has achieved 4 consecutive victories in the league, which even made Dave the best coach in January. The media also touted Wolverhampton vigorously, and even said that they have a chance to compete for the league. Cup qualification strength.But the next day, they lost 1:0 to Fulham, which made Dave very embarrassed, but also gave the players a big blow.

The next opponent is Wolverhampton's brother-in-law --- Portsmouth, they are also promoted to the Premier League for the first time, and before a few rounds of the league, the two teams were one from the bottom and the other from the bottom. There is quite a feeling of sympathy.

However, the current points have opened up a lot. Wolverhampton has won 4 consecutive league victories and grabbed 12 points in a month. The league ranking has risen to 13th, while Portsmouth has tragically fallen to the bottom. First, facing such a player, the club is very confident.And Wang Li's recovery from injury gave Dave a tactical supplement, but considering his recovery from injury and the subsequent games against Manchester United and Arsenal, Dave decided not to let him start.

For this decision, Wang Li was only slightly disappointed. After Portsmouth, Manchester United, and after Manchester United, Arsenal. Only when more fans know him can he arouse his desire to fight. As for Portsmouth?With his current level, this kind of second-rate team is indeed a bit disrespectful.

The media didn't pay much attention to the match between the two newly promoted teams, because this round has the biggest focus: Chelsea VS Arsenal.

********************
Finally, on February 2th, the Molineux Stadium ushered in this battle. As a newly promoted team, like Wolverhampton, Portsmouth did not have any big-name players, which made the studio The commentator in the movie, Tonyson Hasink, has no interest in introducing.

"Next is Alan Wang? Has our dancing prince recovered from his injury? This is great!" When the commentator introduced Wang Li's name, the applause in the audience reached its peak. In Puton City, Wang Li has undoubtedly become one of the fans' favorite players.

Portsmouth's coach Redknapp is definitely an old and cunning figure. He knows that Wolverhampton's performance has been very good recently, and he will definitely take the initiative to attack at home, so he arranged a 5311 defensive counterattack Formation, with Smelding, who is extremely fast with the ball, as the front midfielder, and only one Sheringham is sent to the front of the team. In this way, there will basically be more than 7 players participating in the defense on the back line. He just wants to keep the tie win.

This style of play is very embarrassing, and usually only when the strength of the two teams is very different, this formation will be formed, and Redknapp is sure that Wolverhampton must attack with all his strength, and then There must be loopholes in the defense, so Portsmouth will have many opportunities to counterattack.

********************
Wang Li sat on the bench and watched the game seriously.

The teammates on the field were almost surrounded by Portsmouth's half. The ball was passed back and forth in Portsmouth's half. On the scene, the opponent was almost helpless to fight back, but he was frowned.

"This game is not easy to play." Wang Li heard Dave's muttering next to him, and nodded in agreement. If this game continues, there will only be two results: Wolverhampton will score first, There will be no suspense in the game; being attacked by Portsmouth, the form is reversed instantly, but Portsmouth's defense is extremely tight, and it is not easy for Wolverhampton to score.

The result was just as Wang Li expected, the Wolverhampton players were in big trouble.Throughout the first half, their ball possession rate reached an astonishing 77%, but they didn't take a few shots. After 2 quick counterattacks, he almost scored a goal.

Although during the intermission, Dave told the players to be steady and not to be too impatient, but in the game, reason will never bury the players' desire to win. Kamara, Butler, Cameron Several people seemed determined to score a goal, and they all stood near the Portsmouth penalty area. This did put Portsmouth's goal at risk, but it also left a huge blow to Wolverhampton's defense. loopholes.

"It's dangerous..." Wang Li saw clearly from the bench. Smelding near the center line was almost unguarded, leaving only two veteran players, Nailor and Erwin, standing behind.He turned his head to look at Dave in doubt. Faced with this situation, Dave should give a warning, but why is he still sitting here calmly?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Portsmouth to score!

On the left side of the penalty area, Cameron's long-range shot was easily picked up by the goalkeeper Hislop, and he drove forward with his big foot. Smerding got the ball, passed Naylor's defense, and stabbed the ball to the forward Sheringham, facing the defense of two veteran players, Naylor and Irwin, Sheringham performed a gorgeous individual performance. In the fast dribbling, he flashed past Irwin in a disguised form with a large angle. Then he took the ball towards the left corner of the goal, and in Naylor's constant press, he hung the ball into the upper right corner of the goal with one kick!
This goal made the fans in the audience silent. They didn't expect that Portsmouth, which was suppressed by the audience, scored the first goal!At this time, the cheers of hundreds of Portsmouth fans in the northwest corner even overwhelmed the entire Molyneux Stadium. After reacting, the Wolverhampton fans certainly would not let them play in their own stadium. The site was arrogant, and the sound of "shh" immediately filled the audience.

The morale of the Wolverhampton team was somewhat low. They were attacking throughout the game, but a light counterattack by the opponent made all this a bit ironic.

"It seems that my chance has come." Wang Li knew that at the Molyneux Stadium, Dave would not let the Portsmouth team win. Sure enough, the Portsmouth players were still celebrating their progress. When it was time for the ball, Dave let him warm up.

********************
"I have to say, Sheringham's goal is very beautiful. Facing two veterans, he...???" Speaking of this, the camera turned, and the commentator suddenly changed the subject: "Look at the sidelines! It's Allen, Is he warming up? Is Dave going to put him on, is his foot fully healed? The [-]th official put up the sign, he's really on!!! Allen replaced Kamara, it seems Dave Just let him score!!"

The fans looked at the familiar black-haired boy standing on the sidelines and were finally excited. This boy can always bring them victories!

"Ellen, come on!"

"Alan, enter a few of them and let them know how powerful they are!"

"Alan, teach these Pompey idiots a lesson!"

"Alan, you are the best!"

……

Seeing the black-haired boy who was about to play, Redknapp frowned deeply. At first he thought that this boy would not play, so he didn't plan any tactics against him at all, but he didn't expect Dave to stay so An important hole card!
"Then look at this kid, is his strength as good as his reputation!"

PS: Ask for collection.
