February 24, 2013, New Wembley Stadium, London, England.
What is happening here today is the final of the 2012-2013 English League Cup. The two sides are Crystal Palace and Bradford. Today, the starting lineups of both sides are as follows
Home team Crystal Palace, head coach Tong Yi, formation 4213
Goalkeeper Edouard Mendy
The back four from left to right is Hollebas, Delaney, Van Dijk and Zhang Linpeng
Double defensive midfielder Dickagakoi and Kante
Single attacking midfielder Pogba??
Front three Zaha, Murray and Mane
Visiting team Bradford, head coach Parkinson, formation 442
Goalkeeper Matthew Duke
Back four from left to right: Carl McHughes, Curtis Goode, Lori McArdle and Stephen Darby
Midfield four from left to right Gary Thompson, Gary Jones, Nathan Doyle and William Atkinson
Dual forwards James Hansen and Naji Wells
Tong Yi took a fancy to the opponent's starting lineup and could tell a lot at a glance.
The opponent is an attacking combination of one tall and one fast. Hansen is 193cm tall and is the team's bridgehead and counterattack. Then Wells next to him is only 170cm tall and is a typical fast horse. Born in 1990
He is not very old, but now he is Bradford's main forward. He only came to the team last season and became the team's main force. Last season, he scored 10 goals in the league.
Scored 12 goals in all games.
Currently, Wells has scored 11 goals in the league this season. And in the League Cup this season, he has played seven times and has now scored 3 goals. He is considered Bradford's striker.
The number one sharp knife.
In addition, he also scored 4 goals in other games.
In other words, he has scored 18 goals so far this season.
This is still a very efficient forward.
These data are all Schwartz's, and Tong Yi also misread Schwartz's video information. This little guy is not bad. If he can grow up, he may not be able to play in the top league in the future.
Of course, his strike partner is also very good.
These two people can be regarded as Bradford's risky twins, and they are still very popular in Bradford.
Hansen came to Bradford in 2009. Last season he scored 13 goals in the league and 14 goals in all competitions. In the three seasons from 2009 to now, he has played for Bradford.
Telford has scored 36 goals. If you add in the 10 goals in all competitions this season, he has scored a total of 46 goals.
No wonder these two are so beloved by Bradford fans.
Tong Yi emphasized the team's defense against Hansen and Wells, especially the defense against Hansen.
Because Hansen is Bradford's offensive starter.
A lot of offense revolves around him.
As a bridgehead, he won the first point, and then looked for teammates around him to join in, looking for
Please cooperate.
Moreover, there is not only Wells next to Hansen, but also Thompson, Jones and Atkinson behind him. These guys are also very capable of inserting from behind.
And when defending, Bradford plays more like a 4-5-1 formation.
Hansen was left on the forward line, and Wells returned to the midfielder position to participate in the defense. Then when launching a quick counterattack, Wells used his speed to get in behind.
Moreover, Wells is not the only receiving point. Hansen also has Thompson and Atkinson to choose from on the wing, so they still have a lot of counterattack attack routines.
Don't tell me, there really is something to this Parkinson's disease.
Otherwise, he would not have led a League Two team to defeat Premier League teams such as Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa.
In this game, while Tong Yi emphasized offense, he also emphasized defense and did not give the opponent a chance to counterattack.
In this game, Dickagakoi stuck to Hansen's side, preventing Hansen from easily getting the ball, not allowing Hansen to easily grab the first point and set up the ball for his teammates.
However, at this moment, Dickagakoi took a step slower, and Hansen directly pushed the football down with his chest and quickly pushed the football back to Jones in midfield.
Although this guy is tall and seems a bit bulky, his footwork is very fast. Before Dickagakoy pounces on him, he passes the football.
Jones didn't even wait for Hansen to turn around, he just passed the ball directly behind Delaney.
Bradford forward Wells moved forward quickly, quickly passed by Dick Gakoy and Delaney, and rushed towards the football.
Danger!
Crystal Palace is in danger!
Bradford actually passed the Crystal Palace defense in the seventh minute of the game, and Wells was about to go solo!
The Bradford fans who came from afar jumped up with excitement and almost burst into flames with excitement.
The League Cup champion is beckoning!
we are the champion!
Come on Wells, Wells scores a goal!
"Ah! Danger! Crystal Palace is in danger! Bradford's reaction is very quick, and the routine is very clear and concise. It doesn't look like the cooperation of the English second team at all. Bradford is amazing! Danger!
Mortensen roared in surprise.
hiss!
The Crystal Palace fans at the scene gasped!
Gustav and the others even had their eyes wide open and their hearts burning with anger!
Damn Chinese soft rice man, do you understand football? Can you lead the team? You can't even welcome the English second team, you td, get out of here!
Seeing that Wells is about to catch up with the football, he is about to complete a single shot!
In the box, Lawn was so excited that his body was shaking. He stood up unconsciously and shouted, "We have the ball!"
Louisa frowned slightly, very worried.
With a bang, Van Dijk suddenly shot out of the diagonal thrust, taking the lead and knocking the football out of the baseline.
Wells's right leg kicked out at Van Dijk's foot. Van Dijk fell down and screamed!
hiss!
Crystal Palace fans are relieved to have survived the disaster! ??
Bradford fans were instantly discouraged, extremely regretful, and even felt very regretful.
The Crystal Palace players were very worried about Van Dijk and ran over one after another.
"Wow! What did I see? Van Dijk? Van Dijk's speed is not inferior in the competition with Wells! Oh my god, you have to know that Van Dijk is a central defender with a height of 193cm. He is actually
Caught up with Bradford's fast horse! This speed... hiss! I kind of believe what Tong Yi said now, this Van Dijk is really a genius!" Mortensen was very shocked and couldn't believe it.
He has commented on a lot of games, and he has watched even more games, but he has never seen a central defender like Van Dijk. Van Dijk's speed gives Mortensen a Bolt to play with.
The feeling of football is really high and fast.
He even felt a little dazzled.
"Hiss!" Hiller also gasped, very shocked.
After a while, Shearer said, "If there was a central defender like Van Dijk in my time, my goals would definitely be half as much! His speed to catch up is really too fast! He can actually run over 100 goals.
The fast horse forward who is over 11 seconds long is so scary!"
Bang bang bang!
Tong Yi applauded while worrying about Van Dijk's injury.
Fortunately, Van Dijk was fine, and Tong Yi's anxious heart relaxed.
How dangerous!
After Van Dijk stood up, Wilson's eyes were still wide open, staring at Van Dijk in disbelief, his eyes full of shock.
Corner kick!
Bradford gets a corner kick!
The team immediately kicked the football out in an arc, and the football quickly flew into the Crystal Palace penalty area.
"Backward! High center!" Looking at the trajectory of the football flying in the sky, Edward in front of the goal immediately roared loudly, reminding his defensive players.
The moment Edward shouted, Van Dijk in the penalty area had already determined the landing point. He immediately moved back two steps quickly, used his huge body to block Hansen behind him, and reached out covertly, preparing to jump when Hansen took off.
For a moment, Hansen secretly tugged.
At this moment, the football fell and flew directly towards him and Hansen.
Calculating the distance, Van Dijk instantly and covertly pulled Hansen, who was jumping up with his legs. Hansen's body stagnated under the huge pulling force. Van Dijk here instantly ejected and took off, leaping into the air and grabbing directly.
In Hansen
In front of him, he shook his head and threw the football out of the penalty area.
The football flew quickly to the side.
Holebas on the wing rushed out quickly and swept the football directly towards the center of the field with a diagonal kick.
Kanter, who rushed up from the middle, rushed the football diagonally forward before Doyle, the defensive midfielder who rushed up from the opponent. The football quickly rolled past Doyle, who was rushing up, and quickly rolled towards
Right road.
Mane rushed forward quickly and headed towards Bradford's penalty area with the ball at high speed.
"Counterattack! Crystal Palace's counterattack is coming! Bradford is in danger! Their defense is very empty. They invested too many people in the corner kick attack. Now they only have two full-backs in the defense... eh
, finished!" Mortensen said immediately, suddenly screaming.
"Beautiful! Beautiful pass! Mane easily passed Bradford's left back Mike Hughes! One-on-one, Mane's one-on-one, Bradford is in danger!" Shearer suddenly became very angry.
Roaring excitedly, the voice was very loud.
The Bradford fans at the scene were extremely nervous, and some even dared not watch any more.
The Crystal Palace fans were very excited, their blood was boiling and their blood was boiling.
coming!
Is it coming?
Are we going to score at Crystal Palace?
Are we at Crystal Palace going to win the championship?
Are our Crystal Palace going to achieve zero breakthrough and create new history?
Excited and excited, my whole body was so hot that I was about to explode. Countless passions were heavy in my throat and were about to burst out from my throat.
"Charge, Mane! Kill Bradford!"
The Crystal Palace fans roared wildly.
Bradford goalkeeper Duke immediately rushed out and quickly rushed towards Mane who was holding the ball into the penalty area. He shouted while charging, using thunderous shouts to scare Mane.
Although Mane is young, your tricks will not scare him at all.
At this time, Mane was very calm. He was paying close attention to Duke who was rushing out while holding the ball at high speed. Suddenly, he found an opportunity and pushed the ball hard while running, and the football shot forward quickly.
, quickly rolled between Duke's legs and quickly rolled towards Bradford's empty goal.
Duke reacted quickly, but unfortunately he had just stepped forward and had no time to adjust and make another move. In the flash of light, an idea flashed in his mind, his legs immediately softened, and he quickly sat down.
I want to use my butt to sit the football under me and complete the defense.
But the speed of the ball was too fast. Before he could sit down completely, the football rolled past his crotch and rolled straight into Bradford's goal.
One to zero!
In the 10th minute of this game, Crystal Palace broke through Bradford's goal and got a good start!
The Crystal Palace fans were extremely excited and howled wildly at the top of their lungs, as if they were not afraid of damaging their voices at all!
