Chapter 108 The Magic of Derbyshire
During halftime, reporters in the media booth and various commentators were also talking about the game.
In the first half, Derby County had no chance at all. Tottenham Hotspur had a double advantage of the scene and the score. The suppressed Derby County attack was difficult to fight. The performance of the two teams was not at the same level at all, so the media reporter's comments As you can imagine.
"Derby won't have a chance, the question in the second half is just how many goals Tottenham can score."
"Derby County's coach Wan Sheng has been directing the game from the sidelines, but in the face of the absolute strength gap, I would feel helpless to think of this young coach from China."
"Tottenham did well and we look forward to more goals in the second half."
"Derby County's Cahill is the top scorer in League One, but he hasn't played much in this game so far. It can also be seen that the level of League One is still much worse than that of the Premier League."
"Robbie Keane is in great form and we can look forward to his second goal!"
"..."
This is the evaluation of those neutral media.
On the media table, the hostile reporters against Wansheng were completely gloating at Derby County's situation. They are still angry that they were confused by Wansheng before the game. They reported a lot of news that Derby County gave up the FA Cup. In the game, Derby County and the Chinese didn't mean to give up the game at all. Their starting lineup and Wansheng's anxious performance in commanding the game in the game proved that Derby County wanted to try their best to win this game.
But they tried their best to no avail.
How about it?
Are you leading now and being completely suppressed by Tottenham Hotspur?
Facing the mighty Tottenham Hotspur, it is time to concede defeat, any tricks are useless, and you want to take away the victory at the White Hart Lane Stadium! ? Completely delusional!
While gloating about the game, they started expecting a few goals from Tottenham in the second half, of course. The higher the number, the better, the more Derby County lose, the happier they look and the stronger the post-match coverage.
They want everyone to know that this Chinese can also play a role in the League One team. When faced with a real Premier League team. No matter what he struggles, he is powerless, and the only result is to lose the game.
......
In the chatter of the media reporters and commentators, the fifteen minutes of the intermission passed quickly, and the players of the two teams returned to the game.
Tottenham Hotspur players returned to the pitch with ease.
At half-time, the two coaches, David Plitt and Alex Inglethorpe, both praised the team's performance, which led by a goal in the first half and dominated the field. Absolute advantage. The other party in forty-five minutes. Not even a shot that threatens his own goal.
So they have no worries about the game at all.
Just as the journalists thought, they also believed that the problem in the second half was how many goals the team could score, not what the opponent could do. Under their strong attack, the only thing the opponent can do is to concede as few goals as possible.
There is no danger in such a game at all.
Even the cautious David Plitt didn't think there was anything wrong with the game. At halftime, he praised the team's performance and gave everyone a good rest to deal with the game, which he thought was fine.
his partner. Alex Inglethorpe also talked happily with the players about Wansheng's anxious performance on the sidelines, "That Chinese is really interesting. In the face of us, does he still want to win? I don't think it's possible to do that. What's the use, just a Chinese..."
Many people frowned when they heard his words.
After all, not everyone is racist. There are also several players in the Tottenham Hotspur team who are very dissatisfied with Alex Inglethorpe. The main reason is that this guy's discrimination is too serious. Twisted' to describe, his arrogant face is very annoying.
Of course, this is just a small interlude at halftime.
Alex Inglethorpe is talking about the opponent's Chinese coach, not them, so they won't complain about the opponent. Now back on the field, it's time for them to enjoy the game again.
For them, this game is a complete enjoyment.
Are there any regular games that you can play at will without worrying about losing? This game is like this. They are completely like playing offensive drills. They are not worried about the opponent's chance to fight back. The key is that there are more than 30,000 fans cheering for them. All they have to strive for is to score a few more goals. That's it.
In a tight league, this kind of game looks too good.
Everyone in the Tottenham Hotspur team also went into the game with this relaxed mentality. They were the kick-off team in the second half, and they also quickly went into the attack, but what they did not expect was that this The first wave of attacks was stolen just behind the midfield.
"Carl, be careful!"
The one who conceded the ball was full-back Karl, whose pass was directly cut off by Osman. The striker Postiga, who had just played, said Karl.
Carl didn't say anything, just shrugged.
He felt that his pass was actually very accurate, but he didn't expect the opponent to suddenly jump from the side and steal the ball.
Then it was Derby County's turn to attack.
Derby County played very smoothly in this attack. After Ribery and Morris on the flank cooperated twice, Ribery found a neutral position and swayed past Ricketts to pass diagonally to the middle. A powerful shot, but unfortunately the position of the shot is a bit far. Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Keller made a very accurate judgment and threw the ball in his arms accurately.
It's a pity not to score.
But the threat of this attack is still there, like the exaggerated statement of the on-site commentator, "This is the most threatening attack that Derby County has played including the first half! The opponent's midfielder's shot is very powerful. , fortunately Keller's judgment is accurate..."
Tottenham Hotspur players did not take the attacking attack seriously. In their opinion, it was just an accident. Karl accidentally conceded the ball, and the opponent unexpectedly played a beautiful attack. It was only because many of them did not have time to retreat. Just defensive.
This is nothing.
With Kyler delivering the ball, Tottenham soon jumped into the second wave. In this wave of attacks, they played very smoothly, with continuous and exquisite passing coordination, and soon the football appeared on the right wing of the penalty area. After that, Redknapp kicked and crossed, and the football was destroyed by Alfred. go out. The goal was declared over.
Alfred's clearance was very timely. But Tottenham’s attack was definitely at a high level, so they thought that the attack just now was just a coincidence and didn’t care at all. They believed that the second half would be the same as the first half. They would completely control the situation and quickly Another goal.
But what Tottenham Hotspur players didn't expect was the next two consecutive waves of attacks. They were all stolen directly behind the midline.
Once behind the center circle. It was midfielder Simon Davies who was stolen, and the other was on the right flank. It was fullback Bon Jeffsevich who was stolen. He was stolen twice in a row, which also created two consecutive waves of Derby County attacks. , that is to say, in the opening five minutes, Tottenham Hotspur also carried out only one wave of attack. The rest is Derby County's attack, the game looks like Derby County is holding Tottenham Hotspur. They defended better than Tottenham, attacked more than Tottenham and shot twice, far better than Tottenham's zero.
The first five minutes of the second half completely turned into Derby County time, and Tottenham seemed quite passive for a while.
Tottenham Hotspur's players clearly felt that Derby County had stepped up their scramble. Their passing in the midfield was very limited, and many passes were dangerous. Derby County players' movement increased a lot. The ball has also become very decisive and their attack has been hindered a lot.
These steals also gave Derby County a repressive advantage in the situation.
......
The reporters in the media booth also watched the game.
They were a little surprised that Derby County could suppress Tottenham Hotspur, but this was just the opening game, and there was not much time. They only felt that Derby County had stepped up their fight and continued to attack in the opening game in order to equalize the score. This kind of performance It will definitely not last long, as long as Tottenham Hotspur recovers, the game will return to the situation in the first half.
The media reporters thought so, and so did the Tottenham fans in the audience. They didn't think that being passive for a while was nothing. Derby County just hit a few waves of offense by chance. The team will soon be able to. Anti-press back.
So the cheering voices in the stands continued unabated, and Tottenham Hotspur fans shouted in support of the team.
It's just that this cannot change the situation that Tottenham Hotspur is still passive on the field...
A minute has passed.
Two minutes passed.
Ten minutes later, Derby County was still on the offensive, and Tottenham Hotspur was still in a passive position. In this repressive attack, Derby County players also recovered their form. At this time, they found that It will not be so difficult to play against Tottenham Hotspur, as long as they can play their strength normally, they can also suppress Tottenham Hotspur!
This feeling made them very relaxed, so their performance became much better.
On the contrary, the Tottenham Hotspur players did not expect the game to be like this. They kept trying to attack during this period, but Derby County's full-court pressing caused them countless troubles. Was stunned.
It was the on-court captain Simon Davis who reminded them.
"Steady! Hold! Don't let them bring them into the rhythm!" Simon Davis handed the ball over to centre-back Doherty after a break from Derby County and immediately shouted to his teammates. .
They were a little stunned.
As the captain of the field, Simon Davies has a strong ability to see the big picture and read the game. He found that when Derby County plays, there is a magic power. Derby County runs fast no matter whether it is offensive or defensive. Especially after the transfer of offense and defense, they suddenly accelerated their offense. As a result, the team was somewhat driven by this magic, and the rhythm was also accelerated. This caused many teammates to not adapt, so they made frequent mistakes.
It's a rhythmic magic.
He only knows that some Serie A teams are good at grasping the rhythm of the game. He never thought that a League One team could master this magical power. Fortunately, Derby County has limited strength, otherwise the attacks just now might be enough. Scored.
The most important thing at the moment is to get the team back to a sense of normal play, so they must play a steady wave of progress, belonging to the Tottenham Hotspur attack.
After reminding his teammates, Simon Davis also stepped in and led the team to start the offensive.
This wave of Tottenham Hotspur's advance was quite rigorous and threatening, and the midfielder constantly cooperated to the feet, leaving Derby County's midfielders helpless, and the team's formation could only retreat frequently. Compressed to the penalty area line, Tottenham Hotspur kept passing the ball on the outside looking for opportunities.
Their offensive stance is simply to get back to the situation directly.
The football has been handed over to the foot of Redknapp on the wing. This is already the third time in this wave of offense. He has got the ball. After receiving the pass, Redknapp did not choose to pass the ball immediately. He stopped the ball and took two steps forward, while observing the position of the players in the penalty area.
He's ready to pass the ball.
In front of Redknapp, Osman had already rushed over. Redknapp saw Osman, but he didn't care. In his opinion, this guy can't do anything but run, and wants to grab his The ball really took it for granted.
But this time Redknapp was a little careless. What he didn't notice was that another defensive player, Derby County's left-back Leighton Baines, also posted it.
It was too late when Redknapp realized the danger!
Bynes and Osman closed the door for Redknapp, making him unable to pass the ball even if he wanted to. As a result, the football was broken by Osman in a panic, and then he handed the ball to Baynes. Enns.
Baines got the ball and handed it directly to Ribery in front.
Ribery's position is near the centre line and he is one of Derby's most advanced players.
At the same time, Tottenham Hotspur’s steady attack also pushed their formation very forward, so when the football reached Ribery’s feet, almost everyone immediately realized that this was an excellent counterattack by Derby County. Chance!
Wan Sheng abruptly stood up from his seat. He stared at the game solemnly, his swinging right fist already clenched.
Exclamations from Tottenham Hotspur fans in the stands.
Tottenham Hotspur coach David Plitt's brows furrowed, knowing how dangerous such an opportunity could be.
The reporters in the media booth stopped talking.
Everyone's attention returned to the playing field, and it was on the figure who was rushing forward with the ball!
