Chapter 78
Chapter 75 Going the other way
Football has never been a gentle game.So even Haruko Sakuragi, the only woman on the bench, was not surprised by Gao Bo's swearing.

Isn't that what football is like?Nobody becomes a gentleman when the hormones are kicking in!

Mark Hughes' face sank, he no longer has the demeanor of the head coach of a super team with a transfer budget of [-] million euros.Because the first half is not over yet, his team is already behind by two goals.

What is the demeanor of a loser?

TV cameras locked on to Mark Hughes, the frustration on the Manchester City manager's face clearly visible to all.

Just under the nose of Mark Hughes, the Luton players were celebrating wildly. Vardy waved his fist at the stands, and the cheers of more than 1 fans suddenly rose several degrees.

The singing also sounded, this is Luton's team anthem.

Although the melody is not beautiful, when the chorus of 1 people sounded at the Worth Road Stadium, the Luton fans were full of pride.

So what about Manchester City, what about the Premier League team! !

We are Luton! !We are stronger than ever! !We are incredibly confident.

"Oh oh oh, Manchester City they said they want to buy Adam White, they think money can buy all players, but money can't buy wins, oh oh oh, this is our advice to the Arab teams."

Luton fans improvised and sang, mocking Manchester City.

Gao Bo was quite happy listening on the coaching bench. He pointed to the stands and said to Lin Sen: "These Englishmen are really talented."

Lin Sen also couldn't help smiling: "When I used to watch football on TV, I always thought why England fans sang so much. It turned out that it was all made up like this."

"How do you think Mark Hughes will adjust in the second half?" Gao Bo rubbed his chin with his hand.

"Maybe they have to go to the high center to play long balls. They have Cacedo and Ched Evans on the bench. They are both strong center players with strong impact." During this time, Lin Sen has studied Manchester City.

Gao Bo nodded, he thought so too.

If Manchester City had to play a long pass in the second half, how would Luton respond?
Gao Bo began to think about the second half.

In fact, Mark Hughes is also thinking about the adjustment plan for the second half. The first half of the game is like this. Now it is the No. 40 minute of the game. Manchester City wants to attack and is powerless. At the same time, they are also worried about Luton.

If Luton scored another goal, Manchester City would basically be cold.Now it is only two goals behind, as long as they score as soon as possible in the second half, Manchester City can still save it.
The game in the first half was indeed lackluster. Luton gave up the ball, but Manchester City was very at a loss after getting the ball. They don't know what to do now.

Continue to press the attack?Luton's two counterattacks have scored two goals.And if they want to attack, Manchester City is a little bit powerless now.

The more Robinho kicked, the more anxious he was. The smile on his face has completely disappeared now. Kanter's game almost made him dream of such a simple and honest dark face when he went back at night.
Robinho took the ball in the middle circle, Kanter went straight up and Robinho fell to the ground again
This time the referee finally gave a free kick, but he didn't give Kante a card for it, which made Robinho very dissatisfied.

However, the free kick in the middle circle is no threat to Luton. After Manchester City sent the ball, the first half of the game was almost over.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, the players on both sides turned and walked towards the player tunnel.

Robinho's face was gloomy. In the first half of the game, he was completely restrained by Kanter. He couldn't imagine why this small and thin Frenchman was so difficult to deal with. It was simply an insurmountable hurdle in his heart.

"Don't follow me anymore!!! The first half is over!!!"

When Robinho saw Kante still with him, he broke down.

Kanter scratched his head inexplicably, and he pointed to the player tunnel.

Yes, the game is over, Luton players also have to walk back to the dressing room through this passage
Robinho knew that he had lost his composure, so he looked around, but luckily no one noticed.
The Brazilian star now has both embarrassment and depression on his face. He turned around and lowered his head, and disappeared into the player tunnel.

"We conceded two goals, but now is not the time to cover your face and be depressed!!"

In the visiting locker room, Mark Hughes managed to force a smile.He fought hard, blunt, sonorous and firm.

"We can equalize, or even overtake!!!" Mark Hughes pointed to his head, "As long as we show our true strength!!"

"Robbie, stop entangled with that damned little guy in the second half, go to their penalty area and wait for an opportunity!! I will replace Cascedo in the second half!!!" Mark Hughes cast his gaze on a big black guy sitting in the corner of the locker room.

The 21-year-old Casedo is 180 cm tall and is a very impactful high center forward.

Cascedo sat up straight.

"We played easier in the second half. They have too many people in the midfield. In this case, we don't play in the midfield!! We hit the ball directly into the penalty area and into their heart!! We don't play these tricks with them in the midfield!! We want to go head-to-head with the damn group!!!" Mark Hughes roared.

"Robbie, you entered the penalty area more in the second half and played more flexibly, understand? You are the best star on the planet!!" Mark Hughes encouraged.

Robinho nodded. After a few minutes of adjustment, the Brazilian star seemed to have regained some confidence.

"Guys! You did a great job in the first half!!!" Gao Bo pushed open the door of the locker room and said to the players who were still excitedly discussing the first half.

There was cheers in the locker room, and the boys were very grateful for the head coach's praise.

"Jamie totally screwed their guard lol"

"How about Robinho, it's not enough to meet our big Kanter," George Parker stood up and said excitedly.

Gao Bo smiled and looked at the cheering locker room. The team's self-confidence is now the most inflated.

Being able to defeat a strong enemy like Manchester City is definitely something to be happy about for the Luton players.

However, Gao Bo was not dazzled by the two-to-zero lead.

"Guys, the game is not over yet!" Gao Bo tapped on the tactical board, "I hope we can still celebrate the victory like this by the end of the second half."

Gao Bo turned the tactical board over.

"Manchester City will definitely make changes in attack in the second half. In the first half, they can't take advantage of the midfield. In the second half, they will replace a high center forward, Cascedo or Evans, but no matter who it is, our response is the same. In the first 15 minutes of the second half, we will press a wave of frontcourt!!"

Gao Bo drew a few arrows on the tactical board!
"If they want to replace a high center forward, they will definitely remove a midfielder!!" Gao Bo said with certainty, because with Lin Sen as an intelligence collector, he did his work very meticulously. Lin Sen also made a detailed analysis of Mark Hughes' substitution habits. Accurate information is the key to winning a battle!

"Don't let them play long balls, press them!! They have the ball in midfield, we press them in midfield, they have the ball in the penalty area, we press them in the box!! Make them scared, let them know what to do!!!"

Gao Bo's speech skills are getting more and more proficient now, and his words completely mobilized the players' momentum.

Don't you want to go to the high center to strengthen the offense?
Then I just do the opposite! !
