Chapter 35
The next day, the team punishments for Zhao Yi and Carlisle came out.
In the FA Cup match against Colchester United, Carlisle ignored the penalty arrangement order of head coach Gario and snatched the penalty kick (and missed the penalty kick), which was disrespectful to head coach Carlisle and violated the relevant regulations of the team. He also had a dispute with Zhao Yi in the training match and the two fought.
Carlisle was banned from five games and fined £10,000.
Zhao Yi and Carlisle fought each other in the training match, and the situation was extremely bad.
In addition to a fine of £20,000, Zhao Yi was banned from participating in all League Cup matches this season and banned from three league matches (the number of banned matches was decided by head coach Gario).
The team punishment will not be announced to the public.
Cunha looked at the team announcement and blinked his big eyes. He was not allowed to participate in any League Cup match!
This punishment is...
Wolves were eliminated from the League Cup, are you kidding me with this punishment?
I've never heard of playing like this before. This is obviously the work of the Chinese military advisors. The English can't think of such a bad move. A three-match ban from the league, with the number of matches decided by the head coach?
Why don't you just sue everyone and give Zhao Yi three games off? ?
This punishment opened Cunha's eyes.
……
In the 23rd round of the English League One, Wolves played against Rotherham United, who are also in the promotion zone, at Molineux Stadium.
Bueno continued to comment on the game,"In this game, Wolves resumed the 442 formation, and Carlisle missed the game due to injury.
It is said that Carlisle was injured because he injured his nose and brow in a training match.
As for how he was injured, we have not received any definite information.
It is really a magical thing. It is understandable to injure the legs, feet, and arms in training, but how did he injure his nose and brow?"
"We will continue to follow up on Carlisle's injury.
Let's return our attention to the game first.
Rotherham's style of play is very aggressive. After losing the ball, they like to press high on the spot.
This consumes a lot of physical energy for the players.
And their style of play has a very fast rhythm of attack and defense, and the scene is extremely pleasing to the eye. All the players are constantly moving.
It can also bring a very great sense of oppression to the opponent.
Once it goes well, it is very easy to kick a huge score!
Now the most representative team in the whole of Europe is undoubtedly Dortmund under Klopp.
Rotherham is still several levels behind Dortmund.
Of course, even Klopp and Dortmund, this high-pressure pressing and extremely physically demanding style of play has left the team full of injuries, and the record this season has plummeted.
So Rotherham's style of play is likely to collapse at the end of the season."
As Bueno thought, Rotherham played very aggressively after the opening, and the frontcourt players started to press directly, forcing Wolves to make a pass error.
If the three axes can be withstood, it will be a double whammy for Rotherham.
However, in the sixth minute of the game, Rotherham's frontcourt pressing had an effect!
Gomez made a fatal mistake in passing the ball in the hinterland and was directly intercepted!
After a through ball, Rotherham got a single chance.
Rotherham scored first and led 1:0 away!
In Rotherham Under Rotherham's high-intensity pressing, Wolves' defense was somewhat stretched.
They were like sleepwalking, making mistakes again and again. If it weren't for Rotherham's poor ability to seize opportunities, they would have been at least two goals ahead.
Their defense has always been half a beat slow.
Anxious team captain Nouri kept clapping his hands to remind his teammates to stay focused.
Gallioul stood on the sidelines, almost jumping up and down.
Rotherham's style of play was something Wolves had never encountered before. They were suppressed at the beginning, which led to a big problem with their rhythm.
"Rotherham took the initiative and played more proactively at Molineux. Wolves had big problems in the midfield and backcourt, and it was difficult for them to find their teammates in the frontcourt!
However, Rotherham's style of play will cause big problems in the second half.
If Rotherham were facing another team, they would run at all costs and then fall into positional defense in the second half, but they were facing Wolves! Wolves are the most ferocious offensive team in the English League One!
If their physical fitness declines, they will have huge problems with this style of play!" Although the situation on the field is not optimistic for Wolves, Bueno is full of confidence.
"As long as Wolves can hold up against their crazy first half!"
In the 20th minute of the game, Zhao Yi didn't even have a chance to touch the ball!
And Rotherham's attack was still like a tide.
"gooooal!!!" Rotherham's official commentator yelled like crazy!
In the 22nd minute, Rotherham's frontcourt pressing was effective again!
"Wolves! They have won nine games in a row, defeating Flotford, Leyton Orient and Wolverhampton! This time they couldn't stop Rotherham's attack!
Their defense is like paper, making mistakes one after another!
Rotherham! Attack!!!
Rotherham! Must win!!!"
"Wolves have collapsed. Keep attacking and silence Molineux! Let the entire North Stand of Molineux despair!!"
Rotherham's players embraced and collided passionately.
This was something they didn't expect.
After a dream start, another goal!
At this time, in the stands of Molineux, the fans covered their heads and couldn't accept it.
But compared to the previous abuse and curses, the fans now are just a little quiet.
The packed stadium is terribly silent at this time.
The most active North Stand seems to have lost its spirit.
They didn't expect this to happen.
Not only were the Wolves players stunned, but the fans seemed a little discouraged.
After Rotherham scored the first goal, these fans could still continue to shout for encouragement.
But now, most fans have lost confidence.
"Wolves' recent winning streak, coupled with the FA Cup, seems to have pushed their physical and mental state to a very extreme level.……"Bueno was full of confidence before, but now he has started to make excuses for Wolves. Although
Rotherham seemed to have only scored two goals, they actually wasted two great opportunities!
It's only been twenty-two minutes, and by the time Rotherham's players are out of energy, I'm afraid Wolves will collapse before they can even counterattack.
Zhao Yi and Cunha stood together.
Cunha was a little annoyed, as he had two chances to break through, but they were both ruined by the opponent's defender.
This group of crazy people from Rotherham are really like iron men who can't die. When attacking, the full-backs rush forward to become wing forwards, and when defending, the full-backs can quickly get into position.
This is the strength of the 343 formation. As long as the two full-backs are energetic and fast enough, it feels like playing with two more people, whether it's attacking or defending.
"I need you, I need your breakthrough, fouls, and free kicks.
Can you do it? ?
Can I trust you?
Hmm? ?"Zhao Yi looked at Cunha.
Hearing Zhao Yi's words and looking at Zhao Yi's trusting eyes, Cunha suddenly felt a great sense of recognition.
"Can I trust you?" Zhao Yi asked again.
Cunha nodded heavily.
Yes!
I can't kick the ball in, isn't it easy to call a foul??
Wolves kicked off from the center circle again, and Cunha kept running to get the ball on the wing.
Joel didn't dare to go up now.
Dawson was quite forward and needed the support of the full-back.
Zhao Yi was wandering in the middle, almost locked by the two central defenders. He couldn't get out of position at all, so he could only retreat first.
Doyle took the ball and knocked it to Dawson horizontally.
Cunha started to sprint along the wing.
Dawson passed the ball, and after Cunha received the ball, he was closely followed by the opponent's full-back and couldn't get rid of it at all.
As long as he broke through, someone would double-team him.
He could only pass the ball back to Dawson who was responding, and then suddenly cut inside!
Dawson first gave the ball to Zhao Yi who was wandering over, and then Zhao Yi made a short pass to find Cunha who was cutting inside and running to the middle.
This was a very typical third-person response.
Cunha Cunha's running position was exactly the same as Zhao Yi's position at the beginning.
When Zhao Yi ran away and took away the defensive player, that area became empty.
This is only the simplest tactic for the third person to respond, and there are more complicated running positions.
It requires players to have more experience and football IQ.
Zhao Yi's long pass is very poor, but his short pass is still very exquisite.
The first time he received the ball, he stopped and passed it to Cunha.
Cunha received the ball and turned around in one go.
Cunha, who is usually not active in the middle, dribbled the ball sideways, made a fake move, and then rushed back along the middle!
Sure enough, Rotherham's players were too excited, and faced with this situation, they stretched their legs to block.
Cunha was tripped and rolled forward twice.
Free kick!
Doyle stood in front of the ball with his legs crossed.
Zhao Yi stood next to Doyle and exchanged a few words with Doyle.
Doyle looked at Zhao Yi and nodded continuously
"Oh? Zhao stood in front of the ball again!
The last time he made such a move was when he came on as a substitute and stole Doyle's corner kick!
That time he scored directly from the corner kick!
Zhao has never taken a free kick since then. This time he stood in front of the ball again...
Zhao is completely different from Carlisle. Carlisle's grabbing of free kicks will only waste opportunities.
Zhao's grabbing of free kicks shows that he has great confidence!
The last corner kick is the best proof!"
Carlisle grabbed a penalty kick and was scolded by Bueno.
Zhao Yi grabbed a free kick and was praised by Bueno.
The treatment is really different.
"I always feel that this guy can kick the ball in."
Bueno looked at Zhao Yi standing in front of the ball and felt an inexplicable confidence.
"Last time I saw Carlisle's penalty, I felt that he was going to miss it, and sure enough, he missed it. I wonder if my premonition is accurate enough this time!"
Zhao Yi looked towards the goal along the human wall. The golden route for set pieces is an auxiliary function of the system.
After it is turned on, there will be different landing points and scoring probabilities within the goal range.
At this time, Zhao Yi looked up and saw that many fans at Molineux Stadium had already stood up.
They stretched their necks and looked into the stadium.
All eyes were on him.
The broadcast camera also gave him the biggest close-up.
Lin Xu, who was hiding in the crowd, held the camera nervously and stared at Zhao Yi nervously.
Zhao Yi took a deep breath.
Run-up!
Lift your leg!
Shoot!
The human wall rose from the ground at the same time!
Shoot with your right foot!
The football did not go to the goal. The ball did not fly up from the sky, but flew directly to the goal.
A ground cut!
The football passed through the wall of people at an extremely fast speed and went straight to the lower right corner of the goal!
The goalkeeper's vision was blocked and he misjudged.
He thought it would be a high ball, but it turned out to be a ground cut.
So when he reacted, it was too late!
He could only stand there and watch the football hit the goal!
It looked like a fake match, and he was not prepared to save it at all.
In fact, the ball was too fast, and he misjudged again, so he had no time to save it!
The ball went in!
Zhao Yi rushed all the way to the edge of the court.
He pointed to his chest, where the Wolves' team logo was.
""We will win!"
Zhao Yi clenched his fists and ran to celebrate. His voice did not travel far.
But the camera that followed him allowed all the fans to see his mouth shape.
The stands, which were already cheering, suddenly burst into laughter.
"Must win!!"
"Wolverhampton!!"
""We must win!!!"
The hysterical roars of the fans made Lin Xu feel as if his blood was burning.
The fans in the north stand took off their jerseys and kept waving and jumping.
The Wolves' flag fluttered in the wind throughout the stands.
"Wolverhampton! We may be lost, we may fall behind, but in the end, we will win, we will defeat all opponents!
Right now, at this moment, the counterattack begins���！"
Bueno had stood up, holding the Wolves flag in his hand and waving it continuously.
