Episode [082]: Shoot the Bullet at the Old Club

Sunderland's offense is not reckless, and the defense is also very solid and very patient.

Therefore, from the beginning of the game to the first, Leeds United did not get any good opportunities.

Of course, Sunderland didn't get too good a chance. Leeds United's fierce and high-pressing defense put a lot of pressure on them, and the pressure on receiving and passing the ball was much greater than usual.

This game looks very dull!
Bradley Wilson and others in the media press box were almost falling asleep watching it!
Bradley Wilson was very upset, Mick McCarthy, did you guys come here today to take away a point?What a great opportunity this is?Don't you want to take three points?
Does Mick McCarthy really not want to take threes?
of course not!

Coming to Leeds, Mick McCarthy's only goal is victory, three points!

However, Mick McCarthy is very patient. There is still a long game time, so there is no need to worry. He only needs one or two chances in this game. What they want is a high success rate.

At this time, the worry should not be Sunderland, but Leeds United, who are playing at home.

Although Leeds United is also defensively counterattacking at home, everyone can see that Leeds United is aiming at three points. We Sunderland play like this, and the most anxious person is Loya.

Mick McCarthy sat safely on the coach's bench, very calm.

"Shit! Shet!" Bradley Wilson yelled in displeasure seeing Mick McCarthy's presence.

━━━Separation line━━━

Zhong Cheng folded his hands on his chest, fixed his eyes on the court, and remained silent.

Brendan Rogers came up: "Boss, we seem to be in trouble!"

Zhong Cheng immediately turned around and walked towards the coach's bench.Because the coaching area can only be commanded by one person standing in it, Zhong Cheng will not give the referee an excuse.

Returning to his seat, Zhong Cheng nodded to Rogers and said, "That white-haired old man opposite is not simple, they are trying to be more patient with us!"

Rogers also nodded: "This old man does have some tricks, so what shall we do next?"

Zhong Cheng said: "Stay the same for all changes, I want to see how long this old man can endure!"

Even though he said so, Zhong Cheng was still thinking about what to do next in his mind?If it doesn't work, is it necessary to start a confrontation with Sunderland?

Or, to get the first draw of the season?

Suddenly Zhong Cheng thought of something, and immediately said to Rogers beside him: "Convey it, hit Stephen Caldwell more on the head when counterattacking!"

Stephen Caldwell is Sunderland's starting central defender today. The Scottish international is only 183cm tall. His height has indeed become his shortcoming, but he has good speed and good turns.

Rogers nodded, turned around and walked out immediately, shouting into the court.

━━━Separation line━━━

Half an hour has passed since the game, and the score on the court is still zero to zero.

Although Sunderland controlled the situation and controlled the football at their own feet, they created too few threatening offenses. They only had four shots, three of which were long shots.

The fans at the scene were about to doze off.

At this moment, the Sunderland team suddenly accelerated, and the Argentine midfielder Julio Arca suddenly sent a very precise through ball forward, directly hitting Boumsong's back.

Julio Arka was brought in by Sunderland for £2000 million in 250, beating Newcastle United and Leeds United.At that time, Julio Alca was a player of the Argentine youth team and represented Argentina in the U20 World Cup.

However, he played as a left back at the time, and was later transformed into a left midfielder by Sunderland coach Peter Reid. Mick McCarthy trusted and valued him very much. Last season, he was also selected as a PFA Team of the Year, the strength is not bad.

The Argentine midfielder has speed and skill, and this pass reflects his football skills.

Michael Bridges on the front line turned around in reverse and advanced very timely. The two passers and runners cooperated very well and got a very good opportunity.

"Ah! Beautiful pass and cut cooperation, Leeds United's defense line was penetrated, and Michael Bridges went in. Is he going to kill the old owner?" BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson suddenly exclaimed stand up.

Michael Bridges started his career in Sunderland, but moved to Leeds United in 1999. In the first season of his transfer to Leeds United, he scored 19 goals in a single season. The performance is very good.

But since the second season, Michael Bridges has been injured all the year round and played very few games. He is a famous glass man.From the beginning of 2000 to the scene, this guy averaged less than six appearances per season, but he suffered from Leeds United.

In the last season, Michael Bridges was leased to Newcastle United and Bolton one after another. He only played six times in Newcastle United due to injury, but he did not play in Bolton.In the end, he was loaned to Sunderland by Leeds United, and his performance in Sunderland was quite satisfactory.

In this summer, Michael Bridges returned to Sunderland. He didn't play many games before, and he made a rare start today.

With this first start, I got a very good opportunity.

The drowsy fans at the scene also woke up with a start, staring up at the stadium one after another, without any sleepiness in an instant.

Bradley Wilson jumped up in the media press box: "Goal!"

Michael Bridges slanted the contrast, rushed past Boumsong like a cheetah, caught up with the football, and faced Scott Carson who blocked the corner, he swung his leg directly and savagely to the football.

With a bang, the football clung to the turf and soared straight towards the corner of the goal.

Scott Carson made an error of judgment when he thought Michael Bridges was going for a shot from the far corner. , The football quickly flew into the goal against the inside of the corner post.

━━━Separation line━━━

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal ..." BBC's commentator Mark Lawrence suddenly burst into drinking, and everyone was awakened by him!

"Michael Bridges! That's him, he killed the old owner! He sent the football into the goal of the old club Leeds United. No one thought it would be him who scored the goal. He is not the main force of Sunderland. , It’s a rare start today, and he scored a goal, did he come here specifically to kill the old owner?” Mark Lawrenson was shocked.

At the scene, the Sunderland fans were also a little shocked. They did not expect Michael Bridges to give them such a big surprise.There was enthusiastic applause, and the palms were almost swollen.

On the sidelines, Mick McCarthy immediately jumped up from the coach's bench and applauded excitedly: "Beautiful! Well done! Perfect!"

Bradley Wilson jumped up excitedly in the press box, like a three-year-old child, very excited: "Crazy Luo Ya, I will see how you die this time, hahaha! Mad Luo Ya Ya, you're screwed, screwed!"

━━━Separation line━━━

Zhong Cheng frowned, and thought to himself: "Sure enough, something happened!"

The patience of the young players of Leeds United was still worn out. This time, Milner on the right did not press Julio Arka enough.Perhaps, at that moment, Milner thought Julio Arka would pass the ball as before.

Milner's lack of pressing gave Julio Arka space to pass the ball, and just this one oversight gave the Sunderlanders a chance.

Julio Arca took this chance and passed a very beautiful pass.

Boumsong's reaction on the central back line was fast enough, but his turn was still slow, and Bridges seized the opportunity.

Zhong Cheng sighed, this is youth.

Falling behind, this time the Leeds United game will be even more difficult to play!
Zhong Cheng walked out slowly and walked to the sidelines. At this time, the young players of Leeds United seemed a little dazed, not knowing what to do next?They all turned to look at Zhong Cheng.

Zhong Cheng immediately stretched out his hands and pressed down, signaling his players to calm down, don't worry, and play according to the previous tactical requirements!
Seeing Zhong Cheng's actions, although the Leeds United players were a little puzzled, they still followed Zhong Cheng's request and still stabilized their defense.

After this conceded goal, the young players of Leeds United are obviously more serious and cautious. They are meticulous in the execution of tactics, the oppression is getting bigger and bigger, and the defensive intensity is getting higher and higher. Their defense is Very stable.

It seems that it is really necessary to eat a pit and gain a wisdom!

Zhong Cheng nodded slightly, hoping that this group of young boys would realize their problems through this conceded goal, and not make similar mistakes in future games.

━━━Separation line━━━

Sunderland, which took the lead, was even less anxious. They controlled the football at their feet and passed it back and forth.Although Leeds United's pressure has become stronger, they still firmly control the football at their feet. The only disadvantage is that they are getting farther and farther away from Leeds United's goal.

However, Sunderland coach Mick McCarthy is very satisfied with this.

One to zero is enough to ensure that Sunderland will win this game. Now it is time to control the rhythm and not give the opponent a chance to counterattack.

Mick McCarthy has studied that Leeds United's offensive strength is not very strong.Just intercept their counterattack.

Mick McCarthy couldn't help but look at Ribery, the No. 7 player on the front wing of Leeds United.Mick McCarthy has in-depth research. In Leeds United's previous counterattacks, Ribery was directly involved in almost every time. This guy is the absolute core of Leeds United's counterattack tactics.

Mick McCarthy immediately came to the sidelines and made gestures, indicating that the Sunderland players should pay attention to the defense of the century-old Ribery.

However, Leeds United's counterattack did not go to Ribery, but went directly to the forward Huntelaar in front of him, and Huntelaar always went to Stephen Caldwell.And almost all of them were high in the air, Mick McCarthy was taken aback, he knew what Leeds United was thinking.

Mick McCarthy immediately signaled Caldwell to pay attention to the defense above his head and behind him, absolutely not giving Leeds United a chance.Mick McCarthy is indeed a formidable guy. Leeds United had just found a chance when they were intercepted by Mick McCarthy.

In the first half of the game, Leeds United did not have many chances to counterattack. There was only one chance to threaten Sunderland's goal, but they did not grasp it.

At the end of the first half, Leeds United trailed [-]-[-].
