Chapter 30 Difficult Assists

,

spn The second half of the game started with referee Bennett's whistle. Tottenham fans at White Hart Lane were clapping rhythmically and cheering for the home team.

Tottenham want to dominate the attack from the start, but Everton no longer shrinks. Moyes' team will no longer be the same as the first half. Everton wants to attack like a man and control the game.

Neville and Osman formed a strong line of defense in the midfield and sent guns to the front at any time. Johnson and Li Yu's ability to seize opportunities was also absolutely top-notch.

After receiving Cahill's pass, Li Yu took two steps. First, he used his speed to break through Didier Zokola's defense, and then divided the ball. Unfortunately, Arteta's cross was too close to the goalkeeper.

, Paul Robinson went right out and got the football.

At this time, Li Yu didn't know that the opponent's head coach had arranged someone to mark him on the court, but in a confrontation between the two, Li Yu easily won.[

Everton ended its attack. The players on the field did not retreat to defend. Instead, under the command of captain Neville, they started to intercept on the spot, always putting pressure on the opponent's players.

There was something different in Everton's second half, which was presented to everyone.

Tottenham quickly launched a counterattack, Paul Robinson threw the ball to Statteri, who then passed the ball to Malbranque.

Malbranque's long pass sent the football flying towards the right. After Robbie Keane caught up with the football, he directly broke through Everton's first line of defense with his speed and waited until Hibbert stepped forward to help defend.

By that time, Robbie Keane had already lifted the football into the penalty area near the baseline.

The ball was passed to Berbatov at the forward point, and his side was replaced by Lescott. Yabo, who was defending in the first half, went to mark Darren Bent, and was replaced by the stronger Lescott.

It was almost impossible for Berbatov to complete the shooting action. At this time, the handsome Bulgarian brother raised his chest, then raised his left foot, stepped on it, and tapped the football in the opposite direction with his left heel. He passed the ball skillfully.

go out.

A wonderful pass, the football ball flew to the back point, and there was a gap there!

At this time, Routledge rushed over and volleyed directly.

The football flew to the far corner of the goal. Howard's reaction was really quick. I have to admire the performance of the American veteran. He cheered the team up with his wonderful saves again and again. With this American standing in front of the goal

, Everton’s other players can contend with their opponents with more confidence.

"Oh my god, another great save! Howard is the goalkeeper of White Hart Lane today!" Taylor exclaimed.

Routledge watched his shot being saved by Howard, and in frustration, he threw a leg in the air to vent his anger.

Moyes seemed a little anxious on the sidelines. Everton's full-court pressing defense once the opponent breaks through a certain point, it is easy to create openings in other positions. "Isn't it a bit too hasty to adopt such a style of play against Tottenham?"

?”

Tottenham's corner kick, this is a tactical corner kick.

Robbie Keane's corner kick, the ball flew directly to Chimbanda who was already ambushing outside the penalty area, and volleyed.

Tottenham obviously wanted to increase their number of shots in the second half. They took advantage of all possible opportunities and continued to threaten Everton's goal with shots.

However, Chimbanda's shot this time hit his teammate Routledge and missed the baseline.

Ander Ramos on the sidelines was extremely annoyed. This stern-faced Spaniard in a windbreaker seemed a little too excited. He hoped that the players on the field could seize the opportunity to equalize the score as soon as possible.

In the blink of an eye, the offense and defense exchanged. Li Yu received a pass from Arteta. He moved the football forward and then accelerated with the ball. This caused boos from the stands at White Hart Lane.

Li Yu, who had just started to speed up, wanted to cut inside, but as soon as he took off, he was tackled to the ground and the ball was snatched away.

This tackle was really powerful. Li Rui rolled twice on the grass before stopping. He was the person who fell down the most in this game.[

Sitting on the turf, Li Yu raised his hand to the referee to indicate that a Tottenham player had committed a foul. Bennett hooked Li Rui and signaled him to get up quickly and stop pretending. The referee obviously thought that Li Yu was tumbling like this.

The movements are a bit exaggerated.

"Fk! I was kicked in the head by a donkey, where did I fall?" Li Yu cursed angrily. I don't know who had the bad foot, but his ankle was burning now, so he stood up and jogged a few steps.

Bennett really didn't call any fouls. Even the side kick was meant to be Tottenham's side kick.

Moyes rushed to the sidelines angrily, shook his hands and cursed, complaining to the fourth official and the match supervisor about the barbaric behavior of Tottenham players!

At the beginning of the second half, both teams showed strong fighting spirit. The most direct reaction was that the number of players from both teams fell to the ground increased significantly. In the first half, although there were many goals and the game was fast-paced, there were very few fouls.

The game also went relatively smoothly, but in the second half, since Li Yu fell to the ground, various rough fouls began to appear.

In Taylor's words, "This game now looks more like a League One game than a Premier League game!"

Li Yu finally realized why many famous strikers retired early.

As long as he has the ball ready to break through, Tottenham's Didier Zocola will always make a fierce tackle. This kind of tackle is not just to stop the attack, it is completely a deliberate tackle through the tackle.

The burning pain in his feet forced him to be cautious. Before dribbling the ball, Li Yu always thought about how to avoid Didier Zoccola's tackle.

Tottenham's tactic of containing Li Yu was successful, thanks to referee Bennett. After the first half of the game, he was obviously more cautious in his whistle blows, especially when it came to tackling the ball.

He didn't call the ball, especially the foul against Li Yu, he was more lenient. Maybe the free kick in the first half made him feel that he had taken good care of Li Yu, and he would give Li Yu some slack next.

Li Yu is trying to think of ways to change the current situation. He will not let one person tackle someone and give up his offensive duties. "How can we get rid of the opponent's entanglement?"

Constantly running, changing his position, Johnson also took the initiative to change his position back and forth, but Didier Zoccola was like a piece of shit plaster, sticking tightly to Li Yu, and Li Yu ran to

Wherever the plaster goes.

In the 55th minute, Li Yu, who had no good solution, had already run to the wing where Arteta was.

"Lee, you rely too much on your dribbling and speed advantage. Move first and try to use passing and coordination to get out of trouble!" Arteta couldn't stand it anymore. When he passed by Li Yu

, I added a reminder.

The Spaniard's words made Li Yu suddenly understand that he might have entered a misunderstanding before. Whether in Juventus or Everton, this style of play has become an established pattern. Li Yu always wants to use his own

Breakthrough and dribbling, one person creates opportunities for the team, and he will only choose to pass the ball when it is impossible to break through.

"You use passing and coordination to get rid of it. You are indeed a veteran!"

Li Yu needs to really try to change, observe the position of his teammates, kick the ball, and then speed up his position, or use the cover of his teammates to do some simple passing and receiving cooperation. I want to see, without the ball,

How do you shovel!

In the 61st minute, there was no change in the score on the field. Andramos finally played the second card in his hand and replaced Darren Bent with Colin Defoe who missed a single goal in the first half. Tottenham still had three players on the field.

The forward combination is different from Darren Bent. Defoe is a dexterous and fast forward. His physical strength is not his strong point, but Defoe makes up for his shortcomings with his good sense of smell in front of the goal and excellent shooting skills.

However, Tottenham had just completed their substitutions and before launching a threatening attack, they suffered a serious blow.

In the 63rd minute, Li Yu ran to the wing and received a pass from Arteta. Didier Zoccola, who was defending Li Yu, immediately chose the knockdown tactic and prepared to practice the ball and bring others down together. According to

In previous experience, referee Bennett would at most give his opponent a sideline ball. Li Yu changed his strategy.

The first time he chose to pass back to Arteta, he wanted to try a simple one-two with the Spaniard. As soon as the ball came out, Didier Zocola's flying tackle also came. Li Yu jumped up to avoid it.

, but was hooked by Didier Zocola's raised foot, and fell to the grass again.

This time, referee Bennett can no longer pretend not to see it. Is this a tackle or a hip-hop dance? He kicks so high and he is still a team player. If he doesn't give the card, Moyes on the sidelines will probably sue.

The referee committee.

Yellow card, Didier Zoccola finally got this long-lost yellow card for several tackles.

Arteta's free kick went forward. Li Yu reluctantly took off under the interference of Zokora's series of pulls. When it was impossible to form an attack, Li Yu had no choice but to header the ball and then outflank the midfielder.

Teammates, whoever dares to score is the one who counts.[

Osman, who was defending, easily headed the ball. The fourth ball did not greet Paul Robinson and rolled into the goal.

"The ball has gone in! This time it was Li Yu's wonderful assist. Just look at the scene of pulling the jersey in slow motion. You can see that Li Yu tried his best for this assist. Osman was able to easily score the goal."

Half of the credit for the ball should be attributed to Li Yu's header!" Su Dong's explanation was completely personal, and he made no secret of his admiration for Li Yu.

Domestic fans also celebrated Everton's goal enthusiastically under Su Dong's deception. Who cares about the dull game before the second half?
