Chapter 48 Big Head and Brother Drinking Water's Envy
Chapter 48 The envy of Big Head and Brother Drinking Water
After blasting away Ipswich's goal, Sheffield United played with greater ease.
Ipswich wanted to counterattack, but Drinkwater slowed down the pace. Needless to say, Drinkwater's ability led Stephen Quinn and two full midfielders to firmly control the ball.
Li Mo also dropped back from time to time to help deliver the ball, leaving the Ipswich players with nowhere to use their energy. It felt like they clenched their fists and tried to counterattack, but ended up hitting a ball of cotton.
The drinking man was smart and a thief. He led the Ipswich players away, wearing down their patience and their physical strength. At the end of the half, the score remained at 1:0.
Speed did not make any changes to the tactics. After the start of the second half, Drinkwater suddenly picked up the speed, and Sheffield United's frontcourt attack group became more active as a whole.
Ipswich originally wanted to grab the start, but unexpectedly Sheffield United were more violent than them and were forced to beat them in the half-time.
In the 54th minute of the second half, Li Mo pulled the ball from the side and Matthew Lowton passed it from the side at high speed. Li Mo made a decisive pass and helped Matthew Lowton successfully score.
Vardy's movement caused chaos in the Ipswich penalty area, and Matthew Lowton passed the ball backwards.
He originally wanted to find Matt Ritchie who was also inserted on the other side, but the ball was blocked by the Ipswich defender.
However, the football was not pushed far away and still landed in the penalty area.
And Drinkwater also got into the penalty area without knowing when, and actually took the lead in the melee and succeeded in sweeping the shot.
2:0!
This is also Drinkwater's first goal for Sheffield United!
Brother Drinking Water was very excited. In the midfield, especially an organizational midfielder like him, it is usually too difficult to score a goal.
I originally wanted to run to the away fans' stand to do a beautiful celebration, but I didn't expect that just halfway through the run, Brother Drinking Water was pulled to the ground by Li Mo, and then he was folded into a arhat by a group of animals.
Poor Brother Drinking Water's first goal at Sheffield United was forcibly "celebrated" by his teammates like this.
When the game reached 70 minutes, Li Mo, Maguire and Montgomery were replaced one after another.
Speed also had to consider the rest of the competition and give these iron men as much rest as possible.
Chide, who took over from Li Mo, worked hard and finally scored Sheffield United's third goal in the 87th minute of the game.
3:0!
Sheffield United defeated Ipswich Town.
Although Vardy did not score or assist today, his running position also provided great help to his teammates.
Li Mo felt it the most. Vardy really ran without hesitation, and the opponent's defensive players had to send people to mark him. He played much more relaxedly today than before.
After the game, the entire Sheffield United team was not in a hurry to take the bus back. After all, the distance was quite far, nearly over 300 kilometers. By taking the bus back to Sheffield, it was almost 11pm when everyone got home.
The club also took this into consideration and booked a hotel for two full days. Everyone can stay one night in Ipswich tonight.
The next league game will not start until February 12th. There is still plenty of time. Many Sheffield United players choose to go shopping in Ipswich in the evening.
As for whether it is shopping or visiting other places, I don't know.
Speed just told them to return to the hotel before midnight and ignored them.
Li Mo didn't need to worry about him, he had already taken Maguire and others back to the room for physical therapy.
I don’t know how Li Mo’s previous complaints reached the team manager’s ears, and the club hired two more physical therapists before the start of this round of games.
Different from the physical therapists who are resident in the club, these two physical therapists will travel with the team no matter whether it is home or away games in the future, and help the players with muscle relaxation therapy after the game.
Now Li Mo was lying on the bed in the guest room, humming while being massaged.
Drinking Brother and Maguire on the side were not as comfortable as him. They received physical therapy one after another, and their screams were like killing pigs.
This physiotherapist's technique is different from the massage they usually give each other.
And they rarely do physiotherapy at the club. Li Mo and a few old players usually go there frequently, but now they can't escape.
Moreover, Speed also said today that after every game in the future, if they do not stay overnight at the away venue, they will have to undergo physical therapy in the locker room before leaving.
Maguire and Drinkwater finally finished the massage and ran out of bed as fast as they could. Seeing that Li Mo's physical therapy was not over yet and he seemed to be enjoying it, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: This guy is really good.
is a freak.
Picking up the bananas and energy drinks prepared in the room, Maguire asked Li Mo curiously while peeling them: "Who were you talking to in the stands today? I saw you passed by quickly. They were your relatives."
Is that the person standing next to your uncle?"
Li Mo turned his head and naturally broke off half of the banana that Maguire had not had time to eat. While eating, he returned: "No, that's the head coach of our national team. He came to Europe to inspect some of our overseas students."
Player status."
Maguire and Drinkwater looked at each other, then looked at Li Mo: "National Youth?"
Li Mo ate a banana and said vaguely: "No, the adult national team."
Although Maguire had expected it, he still couldn't help but feel envious at this moment.
He has not even been selected for England's national youth team, but Li Mo has been directly selected for the national senior team!
This is a national team, one that can play in national events and the world preliminaries!
The members of the England national team are all from major football clubs. For Maguire, being selected for the national team is something that is unthinkable.
Drinkwater on the side was not much better. He couldn't play for Manchester United and had no fate with the national team. The two couldn't help sighing at Li Mo.
Seeing the two people's funny actions, Li Mo didn't even bother to complain.
The national football team was eliminated in the Asian Cup group stage not long ago, and since its establishment, it has only entered the World Cup once in 2002.
Although you, England, have not won a championship for a long time, they have always been a strong team in world football. Your ancestors also won the World Cup. Why do you envy me!
"Okay, why are you sighing? Maybe you can also be selected for the national team in the future?"
Li Mo said half-jokingly, but both of them were indeed selected to lead the national team in the future.
It's just that Brother Drinking Water has made soy sauce, but behind Ma Datou is the main force of England. He has participated in the World Cup and European Cup one after another, and his results are not bad.
Maguire waved his hand and said, "Are you kidding? Unless we win the Premier League after being promoted to the Premier League, why would Coach Capello take a fancy to me?"
Drinkwater nodded in agreement, and compared to Maguire, he was more desperate.
Not to mention the midfielder who leads England, there are also Barry, Parker, Milner and others. He competes with these big players for positions.
Li Mo blinked and said to the two of them: "Since you think winning the Premier League is the only way to attract Capello's attention, why don't we?"
Maguire and Drinkwater were stunned for a moment, but they just thought he was joking and joked a few more words.
Li Mo smiled and said nothing. Only he knew whether this was a joke or the truth.
Thanks to Chen’s book friend brother, and Brother Ashenmund’s previous reward. I originally planned to save a few more chapters today, and then send three or four chapters to the brothers, but after thinking about it, three or four chapters are only 10,000 words.
, everyone doesn’t seem to be satisfied. This Saturday, I posted five chapters with over 10,000 words. I don’t dare to post too many new books in the new book issue. Everyone knows that there is a new book list, and it is even more necessary to post after it is on the shelves. During this period, there are still
Brothers, please vote more and follow up. Foodies would like to say thank you (manual dong dong dong!)
Chapter completed!
