Chapter 75 Light Take
Bristol City seemed to be woken up by this goal. Under the roar of their head coach, they began to shrink their defense and honestly launched a defensive counterattack.

This gave Speed ​​a lot of fun, didn't he play defense after losing the ball?

Well, Speed ​​doesn't even need to make tactical adjustments, he believes that Drinkwater on the field knows how to deal with Bristol City.

Brother Drinking Water was also taken aback when he saw the opponent's shrinking formation.

Isn't it us who are leading now?If you fall behind, why don't you rush out and fight counterattack?Do you really think we can't control the ball?

So Sheffield United's midfielder began to control the ball under Drinkwater's intentional slowdown.

Hey, if you defend, then I will control the ball, and I will not attack, so you can't come out?Anyway, I'm the one leading, so I'm not in a hurry.

The players of Bristol City played like this for ten minutes, and found that something was getting wrong.

They don't even get the ball very much. In the past ten minutes, their possession rate is probably only [-]-[-]%.

Even the live commentary is questioning the Bristol City coach's tactics.

"It's okay to play defensive counterattacks before the game, but now whether the players are not focused enough or the tactical thinking is not unified, should Bristol City consider launching an offensive as soon as possible when the ball has already been conceded? Sheffield United. Possession is high, and if you keep playing like this, Bristol City's chances of an equalizer will only get smaller and smaller."

The Sheffield United fans at the scene wanted Bristol City to continue playing like this. Everyone can see how easy Sheffield United is playing now.

Li Mo is constantly retreating to help the midfielder play and conduct.

It's a pity that the head coach of Bristol City is not a fool. Although he was annoyed that his players did not concentrate enough at the beginning of the game, he still had to strive for points in the game, no matter how small the hope was.

Bristol City made adjustments and increased their fighting efforts in the midfield. It seems that they still have to choose to attack.

But like other teams that were scored first by Sheffield United, if they attack at this time, they will face one of the most important problems.

How does the defensive end deal with Sheffield United's sharp counterattack?
As long as Li Mo gets the ball in the frontcourt and cooperates with Vardy's speed and Matt Ridge to get in, the three of them can play a wave of extremely threatening counterattacks in a very short time.

How many Championship teams have died under this routine, can Bristol City make targeted arrangements?

The head coach of Bristol City said nothing happened.

They are just a bottom-ranked team, the kind that can be relegated. The top six teams can't stand Sheffield United's counterattack. What can they do?
And which Championship coach hasn't watched the previous Sheffield United game?Tactical targeting is one aspect, and players are the most important executors.

Li Mo can still control the ball in the face of two double-teams and find a way to pass it out. This kind of player can't be targeted by conventional tactics, okay?

Unless you directly send three players to mark him to death, but in that case, there is no need to play the game. Speed ​​is afraid that the opponent will send three players to mark Li Mo every game.

So now Bristol City can only attack first, to see if they can steal one, and then continue to shrink the defense line. If Li Mo can really counterattack successfully, then GG.

It's purely a matter of whether Lady Luck is on Bristol City's side.

Seeing that the opponent finally wanted to attack, Drinkwater was not in a hurry, and used the pass to drive the entire Sheffield United midfielder back.

Bristol City had to continue to press forward. After pressing forward, they would have more and more space in the backcourt. The players in Bristol City knew this, but there was no way.

Brother Drinking Water, this is a conspiracy. If you want to attack, then press out the formation. After pressing out, we will be fine, hehehe.
Li Mo slowly retreated to the middle circle. This position is very convenient. It not only attracts the attention of one or two Bristol City defensive players, creates a good starting space for Vardy, but also helps him observe the movement of the ball.

I thought Bristol City could survive for a while, but in the 18th minute of the first half, after Drinkwater's clean steal, he threw a long pass to Li Mo with sufficient advance.

Li Mo's skillful explosive start threw off the Bristol City players who were running towards him.

Brother Drinking Water gave the ball a bit too big, but it doesn't matter, it is beneficial to Li Mo's sprint, if it is just right, Li Mo may have to go to get the ball when he is double-teamed.

The two central defenders of Bristol City in front of the penalty area maintained their positions and did not dare to attack easily. After Li Mo caught up with the football, no one stepped forward to intercept it, so he took advantage of the opportunity to take the ball and kill it towards the penalty area.

Bristol City's midfielder returns relatively quickly. Matt Ridge's insertion seems to be disturbed. In the middle position, only Vardy is running, but there is another Bristol next to him. City's full-backs are marking.

It seems that the Bristol City players still have targeted arrangements, try to keep a close eye on Vardy and Matt Ridge when defending, and let Li Mo choose to go it alone.

If this was a few months ago, Li Mo might have hesitated, but now what?
After Li Mo entered the penalty area, he was on the right side of the penalty area, facing the defense of a central defender of Bristol City, and another central defender was ready to supplement the defense at any time.

Some difficulties, but Li Mo is also very excited.

He started to ride a bicycle, and the frequency gradually increased. There are actually very few players who can shift the center of gravity of defensive players by riding a bicycle.

Li Mo doesn't have this ability yet, but relying on his strong core strength and explosive power, he can move fast enough.

Just when he was about to approach the defender of Bristol City, Li Mo's left script should have continued to sway over the football, but he chose to dial the ball at this moment.

The instant explosion made it impossible for the defensive players to keep up with his movements, and after Li Mo swayed enough space to kick his feet, he made an arc with his left foot.

The movement is stretched enough, the speed of this arc shot is not very fast, but the angle is very tricky.

The goalkeeper also pounced on his right right at the first time, but he soon discovered that the football completely bypassed his fingertips. The hand is not long enough!

The crisp sound of football entering the net sounded again. Li Mo stood still and made a "listen" celebration action. The Sheffield United fans at home celebrated with joy again, giving Li Mo the biggest cheer.

In less than 10 minutes of the opening two, he scored twice.

Let him do it alone?Okay, let's go it alone. Li Mo's dribbling skills may improve a lot every month. After all, Bristol City made a mistake in judgment.

This ball almost declared the end of the game.

Holding a two-goal lead, Speed ​​felt that he had an advantage in any way he played, and the players of Bristol City were also hit hard.

Li Mo is in such a good state today, who dares to say that he can't score a third goal?
Under the unbalanced mentality, Bristol City was hit hard again in the No. 308 minute of the first half.

Matt Ridge made a pass from the bottom on the left, and Vardy followed up with a successful push. In the first half, Sheffield United directly beat Bristol City into a sieve.

In the second half, Speed ​​simply replaced Li Mo and Vardy with Ched Evans and Bogdanovic.

In the 609th minute of the second half, Chede scored another header, scored consecutive goals, and fixed the score of the game at 4-0.

Sheffield United snatched another three points with a light win over Bristol City, and the players huddled together after the game as they waited for the results of a few more games.
