Chapter 4 Manifestation of Genius
"You should be careful about that Eastern boy. He is very strong and very fast. Don't be careless."
Taking advantage of the dead ball, Bitwin pointed at Li Mo, who was walking forward, covered his mouth and said to his midfielder.
He suffered a loss on Li Mo, so naturally he didn't want the backcourt players to stumble on Li Mo. Nearly ten minutes had passed in the second half, and the most important thing was to hold on to the score and get all three points.
The Bristol City midfielder nodded to indicate that he understood. He had seen how Li Mo was fighting with Bitwin at close range, and he sent a message to the back to let the defense behind him pay attention.
But the substitutions on the sidelines didn't waste much time. Soon, a Bristol City player sent a throw-in. Bitwin didn't know how effective the call was, so he could only return to his position.
Li Mo was already standing in the Bristol City half, watching the offense and defense still taking place in the Sheffield United half, and began to move horizontally in the direction of the football.
Due to the change in tactics, Bristol City's attack intensity was naturally far less than at the kick-off of the second half. However, Sheffield United only lost one forward, and the four midfielders were not affected. At this time, they also began to try to regain the midfield position.
.
Sheffield United's defensive midfielder Montgomery and central midfielder Stephen Quinn both played in the Premier League with Sheffield United a few years ago. Although they were later relegated back to the Championship, their strength should not be underestimated.
This pair of old partners who have worked together for five years quickly helped the team stabilize the situation.
When the Bristol City players saw that they could no longer control the midfield, they were left alone. Except for forward Bitwin who was still waiting to steal the ball in Sheffield United's half, the rest almost all retreated to their own half.
After Stephen Quinn dribbled the ball past half-court, he looked up and found that apart from the two full midfielders, there was only one Li Mo in front.
If it is a normal offensive mode, he can choose to split the ball at this time and let the full-back dribble the ball to see if there is a chance to break through. If the breakthrough is difficult, he can also pass the ball to the full-back who is covering him.
However, because one player was sent off in the first half, Sheffield United's two full-backs obviously did not dare to intervene easily. If they were hit by another counterattack, Sheffield United would almost be sentenced to death.
At this time, Li Mo suddenly raised his hand to signal Stephen Quinn to pass the ball, but he was surrounded by Bristol City players, which made Stephen Quinn hesitate.
Li Mo still signaled to pass the ball over. Seeing this, Stephen Quinn had no good choice and passed a flat fast ball forward.
Li Mo took two or three steps back, caught the football, turned around, and looked at the situation in front of him.
Breaking through from the center was not a good idea. At this time, the space in Bristol City's center was almost blocked. Li Mo just tried it, squeezed away a Bristol City midfielder with his body, and distributed the ball to
Wing.
After receiving the ball, Sheffield United's full-back looked at the Bristol City full-back and the eager midfielder beside him, and had no choice but to pass the ball back.
Steve Quinn tried to cooperate with other teammates in the middle again. However, the Bristol City players were unmoved and seemed to have made up their mind to maintain the advantage of these two goals and no longer press forward to attack.
.
During this period, Li Mo also received the ball several times, but he always chose to pass the ball back to Stephen Quinn in transition, or pass the football to the wing.
It seems to be a reasonable performance, but it also feels a bit disappointing.
Compared to his performance at the back, Li Mo seems a little too reasonable at the center position, and sometimes reasonable means mediocre.
However, his physical fitness is also on full display. If he gets the ball one on one, he can basically control the ball.
This made Bristol City's defenders feel uncomfortable and relieved at the same time.
If their physical fitness is strong, even if they can't grab the ball alone, they can still interfere as much as possible to prevent Li Mo from easily turning around. Moreover, they have enough people in the midfield, and they can also choose to flank Li Mo.
It seems that this is the result of this game.
Gradually, the two defensive players originally surrounding Li Mo were reduced to one.
Li Mo didn't seem to notice such a change, and was still running in front of Bristol City's defense.
It's just that he somehow switched defenders to fight each other, and raised his hand for the ball from time to time. Although it didn't have very good results, he never tired of it.
The game time was about to reach the 70th minute, and Speed looked a little anxious on the sidelines.
It's not that I'm disappointed with Li Mo. After all, Li Mo is the only center forward on the field, and the two wide midfielders are also separated by Bristol City's midfield. They can hardly cooperate with Li Mo.
Li Mo's ability to use his physical fitness to control the ball and pass it smoothly to the wing is already very good.
Maybe it was the spirit of refusing to admit defeat that gave Speed a glimmer of hope in his heart. However, there were only 20 minutes left. If the offense still failed to improve, Speed began to consider whether to make a desperate move.
, put another striker in?
Stephen Quinn began to play high balls frequently, but the two full-backs did not have much advantage in speed. They attacked many times to no avail. Although Li Mo won the ball several times, in the end he could not form a good result.
Attack opportunity.
Just when Stephen Quinn felt a little helpless, Li Mo suddenly leaned on the full-back behind him. He raised his hand high and signaled Stephen Quinn to hoist the ball. His look was very determined. Stephen Quinn
Seeing this, he passed a high ball towards Li Mo.
Li Mo opened his hands slightly and jumped high to meet the ball, but stopped the ball firmly with his chest. The Bristol City right back behind him knew that he could not compete with Li Mo for the top position.
, and pushed Li Mo out hard.
But what was different from the previous times was that after Li Mo got the ball this time, he did not transfer the ball to the wing or pass it back. Instead, he turned around resolutely.
And Bristol City's full-back didn't even make a move to pull Li Mo's clothes, and was left behind by Li Mo as if he was being crushed.
Seeing this, the Bristol City midfielder on the side quickly ran towards Li Mo, looking menacing, as if Li Mo still chose to dribble the ball forward at the next moment, he would make fierce defensive moves.
Ordinary players would not gamble with their health at this time. Li Mo lowered his shoulders slightly, pretending to pass the ball to the winger on the wing.
But the next second, he saw the ball gently poked by his toes. The football passed between the legs of Bristol City's midfielder. Li Mo also accelerated again, and instantly passed from the left side of Bristol City's midfielder.
ran through.
"Great ball! Nice pass! Lee seems to have remembered that he is still a 17-year-old player, and his bold attempt is amazing! Forget about those reasonable and unoriginal passing options, this is
What a Sheffield United talent should do!"
The commentator seemed to be amazed by Li Mo's beautiful performance this time, and praised him profusely.
But at this time, the audience on the sidelines and in front of the TV no longer paid attention to the commentator's voice, because after Li Mo passed the midfielder, he would directly face Bristol City's central defender!
This is Sheffield United's best offensive opportunity in this game. What will Li Mo choose to do? Continue to pass or directly shoot?
Almost everyone on the court focused on Li Mo dribbling the ball at high speed. Facing the attacking Bristol City center back, Li Mo slowed down slightly and changed the rhythm of dribbling.
It seemed like he wanted to try again.
Bristol City's central defender didn't think so much. Now that Li Mo has not entered the penalty area, he can choose to use a less violent foul to interrupt Li Mo's offensive, even if it gives Sheffield United a
A set kick is better than letting Li Mo dribble the ball and have a chance to shoot!
The figures of the two people were getting closer and closer. Li Mo stepped on the bicycle. His tall figure showed very good flexibility at this time, and his cycling movements were very beautiful.
But just when everyone was guessing which direction Li Mo would break through next, he suddenly raised his foot and pushed the ball into the wide area on the right!
The football passed in front of the two central defenders to the right. At this time, another Bristol City central defender noticed that Stephen Quinn had already entered the penalty area from the right at high speed. Behind him, the cloth
Another full-back from Risto City chased back in a very embarrassed manner!
The pass given by Li Mo was just right. Only the goalkeeper was left in front of Stephen Quinn. He received the ball and completed the shot. Bristol City's goalkeeper had no time to react and could only watch the football being blocked.
Kicked into the far corner of the goal!
The net seemed to be rippled with water, and at this moment, countless Sheffield United fans watching in front of the TV cheered along with the commentator's exciting goal.
But Li Mo, who led this attack, did not run to Stephen Quinn to celebrate at this moment. Instead, he rushed forward into the Bristol City goal, hugged the football on the turf, and ran firmly towards the midfield.
He waved his arms and signaled his teammates to get back to their positions quickly. They still had time, and just scoring this goal was not enough.
Everyone talks about becoming famous with one goal, but Li Mo only assisted once, but he hasn't scored yet!
Chapter completed!
