He underestimated his opponent. He was tackled by Mills several times, which directly affected Kewell's condition.
Su Yun was very anxious on the sidelines.
Although Norwich is a League One team, the players who played today were all substitutes and young players. This is a good opportunity. If you cannot seize such a good opportunity, then there will be a big problem.
"asshole!"
Seeing Kewell lose the ball again, Su Yun couldn't help but cursed.
Su Yun is definitely not scolding Kewell.
Originally. In this era of football that pays more and more attention to teamwork, it is difficult to find a football champion like Maradona. Back then, Maradona could even fight against his opponents on his own during the game.
But it will be difficult for such players to appear again in the future.
Even if Maradona is reborn, in today's era where more and more emphasis is placed on teamwork and defense, it will be difficult to complete the feat of the past. What's more, Kewell is not even a little worse than Maradona.
You can't expect Kewell to pass all the other players by himself.
Look at Norwich now. Not only do they have Mills defending Kewell, but the midfielders are always paying attention to Kewell's side, forming a double defense with Mills. Even if Kewell has passed
Mills also has the help of midfielders.
Even though Kewell was in extremely good form, he passed two people in a row. Behind him, there was the back-up defense from the center back.
English League One teams are different defensively.
In the English African League, once the wide players pass the full-backs, they can completely mess up the opponent's defensive line. But the English A team is different. Although it is not as good as the Serie A team, it can still maintain the formation.
Far more than the English African League and English League Three.
What can Kewell do under such circumstances?
What Su Yun was dissatisfied with was Williams.
As the core of Dagenham and Su Yun's most trusted midfielder, Williams disappointed Su Yun. He should have an insight into the situation on the field and then choose the direction of attack based on judgment. But he is still the same as before.
Same, always give the ball to Kewell.
Now it is obvious that Kewell's side has encountered a lot of resistance. He did not know to repent and continued to attack on the left.
This made Su Yun very angry.
damn it!
Su Yun was angry, but the Norwich coaching bench next to him was laughing again and again.
"This Kewell is a talent who came out of Leeds United's youth academy. I heard that he even scored a hat-trick in the last game. Dagenham is just such a player." Regarding Dagenham's situation, Norwich's coach actually has no idea.
How to be clear.
It is difficult for Norwich to play in the English League One. They have no time to pay attention to a team in the English League Three.
So after watching it for a few minutes, the Norwich coach had already concluded that Kewell was the core of Dagenham.
"Yes. As long as Kewell is guarded, Dagenham won't be able to make any waves."
The assistant coach next to him also echoed.
During this period of time in Dagenham, only Kewell had some offense. Other players, such as Lampard, Kilbani, and Harrison, had no performance. They were all mediocre.
Although Norwich is unwilling to focus on the League Cup in order to advance, they are optimistic about success if they can go further.
Fortunately, Norwich's team is also made up of temporary substitutes and young players, so they can't cooperate for a while. Otherwise, with the current situation of Dagenham, Norwich will definitely be beaten.
The game went on for twenty minutes without realizing it.
At twenty-two minutes, Williams got the ball again.
Williams' ball control is very unique. Because his foot skills are not as delicate as those of South American players, and he is 1.87 meters tall, so he dribbling and controlling the ball makes people feel awkward. But that's it, William
James' ball-handling skills are also quite good.
Although he was simply dribbling and controlling the ball, his opponent was unable to steal the ball from his feet.
After Williams got the ball, he did not rush forward. Just like at the beginning, he raised his right foot again and prepared to pass the ball. This has become a fixed pattern. Because Norwich's cooperation is very unfamiliar, as soon as he reached the frontcourt
It's easy to lose the ball.
Dagenham grabbed the ball and handed it to Williams.
Williams also passed the ball to Kewell on the left as always. This has become a fixed pattern.
Norwich players are also used to it. So when they saw Williams passing the ball, everyone's attention immediately came to Kewell. Mills was even closer to Kewell.
"Williams got the ball. He didn't perform well in this game. Judging from Dagenham's formation, Williams should be the core of Dagenham's midfield. But there were several passes
It’s all baffling, even though Kewell’s side has been blocked, he still keeps passing the ball.”
Mortensen shook his head.
Seeing Williams' repeated passing movements, Mortensen didn't know what to say. With a single head, this kind of player can also be the core of the midfield? But after thinking about it, he smiled again. Dagenham is
What more can you ask for from a team that has just been promoted from the English and African League.
Even Su Yun on the sidelines frowned.
But when his foot touched the ball, everyone was surprised.
Instead of passing the ball to Kewell as before, Williams kicked the ball in the opposite direction with the outside of his instep. The ball was very fast, and the direction of the ball was directly towards the right.
When Williams passed the ball, Kilbani had already started running.
In fact, it was not that Kilbane and Williams had any tacit understanding, but that Kilbani was a very hard-working player. He was unwilling to let go of every opportunity. So he ran away.
I just didn't expect Williams' ball to actually pass to the right.
Kilbani is an extremely fast player. He may not be as fast as those players with abnormal speed, but he is still fast on the wing.
"Williams... no, the ball was passed to the right. It was very fast, and Kilbani had already followed." Mortensen was also quite surprised. Because the pass with the outside of the instep is not so
It's easy. Without certain skills, you can't pass this kind of ball.
"Kilbani, he is very fast. He is really fast and has already thrown away the defenders."
Williams' ball flew directly past Norwich's left back. Everyone thought Williams would pass the ball to Kewell, so Norwich's left wing never expected that Williams would pass it.
Here. When Norwich's left-back wanted to turn around and chase, Kilbani had already passed him quickly.
"Kilbani, he's got the ball. What's he going to do with it?"
There are many options in Kilbane.
Because it was too sudden, there was no defense in front of Kilbani. Kilbani could continue to rush forward, pass the ball, or shoot on his own. There were too many choices.
"Kilbani, he continued to advance. Pass the ball, Kilbani passed it back...Who is this, this is Dagenham's No. 8 player Lampard!"
"Shoot!"
Kilbani did not pass the ball into the penalty area, but passed the ball back near the penalty area. Lampard, who had been doing nothing in this game, immediately found this position and rushed to this position.
Facing the ball passed by Kilbani, he shot directly.
"GOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mortensen cheered loudly. "Lampard, Frank Lampard! He scored the first goal of the game,
It was also the first League Cup goal in Dagenham’s history.”
In fact, this is the first time Dagenham has participated in the League Cup in its history.
Su Yun couldn't help but jump high when Lampard scored. Su Yun couldn't help but look at Williams and kept extending his thumb. Regardless of whether he saw it or not, Su Yun kept praising him.
Williams.
Williams' pass just now was so beautiful.
It wasn't the passing that was beautiful, but the scheduling of the midfield that made people shine. It was a perfect strategic deception. Even the head coach Su Yun was deceived by Williams. It took Williams twenty minutes to let Novi
Qi thought Dagenham would only fight Kewell's side.
But suddenly the direction of attack changed.
Shuai Cai, this is Shuai Cai. Su Yun was overjoyed. Isn't the core midfielder he wants like Williams?
And Mortensen was introducing Lampard, who scored the goal.
"Lampard, a young player who is only 18 years old this year. He is the son of West Ham United's meritorious player Frank Lampard, and he is also a young player trained by West Ham United's youth academy. He is on loan to Dagenham this season.
.”
Lampard ran towards the corner flag with his hands raised.
A goal was scored.
Lampard likes the current feeling very much and likes the position assigned to him by Su Yun. Lampard received the most typical English midfield training at West Ham United. So he has good physical strength, can defend, attack and run.
.
But in the position given to him by Su Yun, he felt that he performed best.
Although there were no cheers, only boos from the audience, Lampard didn't care.
