At the start, Mane and Salah flew on both wings

"The league has only one draw and 27 games unbeaten in League One. Notts County's 2011 is over. They are hitting an unprecedented record. They want to win the League unbeaten in League One. If it weren't for the great Brentford After blocking Notts County, they even desperately wanted to win the League One.

No one thought that they could not be promoted. Under the leadership of Zhou Xu, Notts County can now be said to be the champion of League One. Notts County is firmly at the top of the Premier League standings, even 16 league points ahead of second-placed Brentford."They are already a confirmed Championship team."

January 1, 2012, New Year's Day, Sunday. Xu's three signings have been added to the team, two future England internationals Alli and Mings, as well as Mahrez from Algeria.

On January 2, just two days after their last game, Notts County will play against Exeter City, who are ranked 23rd in Dida, away from home.

Exeter City, they have not been having a good time recently, suffering 4 consecutive losses in the past 5 games.

The goalkeeper of a weak team, Exeter City’s only advantage is goalkeeper Bligh���Man's strength is very good, and Exeter City has no bright spots.

In this game, Zhou Xu chose to rotate players.

The forward is Origi, and the left winger starts from Seat B. Mahrez became the starting left winger in the first game after coming to Notts County.

In the midfield position, B Fei partners with Wang Chu, and Fred is the midfielder.

The double central defenders are Pierce and Ilori, and Mings is not strong enough to start in League One.

The full-backs on both sides can only continue to start, and Zhou Xu has no better replacement for the time being.

The goalkeeper is still Alisson

"New Year's Day has just passed and the English League One games have begun. In this game, League One hegemons Notts County will face Exeter City at St. James' Park. In this game, coach Zhou Xu rotated most of the players, including the debut of new aid Mahrez, whom Zhou Xu signed from Le Havre of the French Second League.

Notts County kicked off and the opponent's central defender made a mistake. Wang Chu stole the ball and scored a solo goal. The goalkeeper steps out to hold the ball. In the 32nd second of the game, Notts County almost scored."

"Bruno Fernandes made a brilliant move, a wonderful long pass, Mahrez shot alone! Goalkeeper Blackman flew to block the shot, Mahrez's shot was a little weak, it seems that he is not used to it after just landing in England"

""Wang Chu, calm down!" Zhou Xu shouted at Wang Chu. Just now, he got a yellow gem card for an unnecessary foul.

Exeter City may not be strong, but like most English teams, they advocate physical confrontation. The young Notts County players are not tired of this, especially those players on the field who finally got the chance to start. They have not yet adapted to England's little tricks. In the

21st minute of the game, Origi received a long pass from Robertson and had a single shot.

But because of hesitation, Origi missed the opportunity to shoot, and the subsequent shot was blocked by the opponent. Blocked, Zhou Xu couldn't believe it on the sidelines, and Origi also held his head in frustration. He finally got the chance to start, but he hasn't been able to adapt to the rhythm of the League One game. Exeter City and Notts County were engaged in a brutal close battle in the midfield, and the ball was changing all the time.

B席, who played as a left winger for the first time, was a little uncomfortable. He ran to the middle from time to time to support, and then was scolded by Zhou Xu on the sidelines and went back to the wing. As for Mahrez on the other side, he was even less in game shape. He could create threats on the wing from time to time, but once he was attacked, he could not protect the ball.

"Seat B, passing people on the wing. This is the first time he has posed a threat on the wing. Exeter City must pay attention to him. Breaking into the penalty area, there was Origi at the back point. He did it himself, but unfortunately he was blocked from the bottom line."

After being scolded by Zhou Xu two or three times in a row, Seat B finally understood what the winger should do. How can he play football without bursting out on the wing? The winger is the one who excels!

"The first half of the game was over. Although Notts County controlled the rhythm of the game in the first half, Notts County, who played almost all substitutes, failed to score Exeter City's goal. The two teams drew 0:0."

Halftime, in the visiting team's locker room

"Seat B, Mahrez, you have to break through. Seat B, forget about your playing style in the middle for a moment. You have to make a strong breakthrough like you did around the 25th minute of the game to open up the situation for the team. Mahrez, I know you are still not used to England's little moves, but the team needs you. You have to pose a threat on the wing, and then hand the ball to Origi to finish.

It was obvious that the Exeter City players had no physical strength, and their head coach Diffie failed to arrange the players' physical strength. There is no threat from the opponent's offense. Fred, you should also participate in the offense based on your position. What we want is not a draw, we need a victory. come on!"

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Exeter City, who had physical problems, made three substitutions in a row.

"At the beginning of the second half, the Exeter City team tightened their defense even more, and they wanted to get a draw against Notts County."

Seeing that the situation on the field did not improve, Zhou Xu turned to the bench and asked them to start warming up.

"In the 62nd minute of the game, the score was still 0:0, and Zhou Xu made a substitution. Manevardi and Pogba came on at the same time, and Zhou Xu was ready to strengthen the attack. He sent out his starting players to win."

"Mane, who came on as a substitute, was very active, passed people, passed, and was blocked from the baseline. This was a corner kick. Fee B took a corner kick and the ball went in! Pierce, he came out from behind and headed the ball into the goal. The Barbados international saved Zhou Xu. In the 67th minute of the game, Notts County led Exeter City 1:0."

After scoring the goal, Pierce ran around in excitement. He never thought he would score. He never thought about his celebration. He could only wave his arms and jump a few times.

"pretty!"Zhou Xu cheered along with the Notts County fans on the expedition. Mane, who had just appeared on the field, scored this goal. His sharp breakthrough caused a lot of trouble for Exeter City.

"The game was over, and Exeter City ultimately failed to hold on to the score. After they conceded the goal in the 67th minute of the game, their defense could not withstand Notts County's attack. With Pierce scoring again and Seat B scoring, Notts County defeated Exeter City 3-0 and continued their unbeaten record in League One."

After winning against Exeter City, Notts County has 27 wins and 1 draw in 28 rounds of English League One, 16 points ahead of second place Brentford, and 22 points ahead of third place Charlton.

Five days later, on January 7, Zhou Xu will play against Harbin Town in the third round of the FA Cup.
