　　 Chapter 94 Semi-final: Rival Arsenal!

Since it was on the away game, Gao Bo and his team did not celebrate too much after the game. After the game, the players celebrated in the dressing room for a while, then packed their things and boarded the bus and returned to the hotel to rest. One night later, he returned to Luton the next morning.

　　 When the team's vehicles entered the city, the fans almost boiled over. The fans crowded around the slow-moving bus on the urban roads, as if in a championship parade.

　　 In fact, reaching the FA Cup semi-finals is indeed no less than some teams winning the championship for Luton fans. Because Luton is only a fourth-level team, with such a league level to achieve such results in the cup, even if the semi-final Luton is eliminated, I am afraid that in the next ten or two decades, when fans mention Lu this season When paused, we should talk about it.

　　 Luton made a historic break into the semi-finals, making the whole Luton crazy. Anyway, the tavern owners must have made a profit last night.

　　...

　　 On all the sports media pages published the next day, this game is the key news that was put on the front page.

The other three knockout games were attended by Premier League teams, including giants like Arsenal and Liverpool, but the most eye-catching one was not surprisingly the one where Coventry played against Luton at home. A contest between the English Championship team and the second division team.

　　 "Luton-FA Cup Final Four!" This is the title of many media.

　　 Just linking the name of Luton's team to the FA Cup semi-finals is enough to shock people.

"Luton led by the Chinese coach is doing miracles, or they have already done miracles. In the second division, Luton, who has been deducted 30 points, is now ranked second in the league and they are almost locked in an upgrade. The number of places in the first league, even after the end of the season, Luton won the second division championship people will not be surprised! And in the FA Cup, Luton is also a super dark horse in the FA Cup this season, their promotion The road was not because of good luck in the draw. They met Chelsea and Manchester City on the way to the semi-finals. But in the end Luton eliminated them!! Now, this second division team will go to Wenzhou Buli, go to compete for a ticket to the FA Cup final!!" Sky Sports wrote in the report.

　　 And the photo they were given is of Gao Bo jumping up to celebrate the goal.

　　 Generally speaking, the media prefer to use players as pictures. After all, on the football field, fans prefer to chase individual football stars. However, the English media unanimously chose to include Gao Bo's photo, which fully shows how successful the head coach's work in Luton is.

"The first half of the game was quite dull. Both sides invariably put on a defensive counterattack, but in the end, under the pressure of the home fans, Coventry tried to attack, but if the Coventry fans know the consequences of pressing the offense , They may not create pressure on the team. Luton used some Coventry players to try to press the opportunity that caused the midfield to disjoin, and completed a quick counterattack!! Scored a goal."

"In the second half, Coventry used a corner kick to score a goal to equalize the score. The essence of the game was in the last minute of stoppage time. Luton also used a corner kick. Central defender Jeffrey scored the goal with a header. A lore!!!"

　　......

Three of the four FA Cup quarter-finals have ended. There were no draws in these three games. The other three teams that reached the quarter-finals included Everton and Arsenal, while Liverpool played against Fulham at home. The game will be played tonight. Regardless of the outcome of this game, the teams that are promoted are all Premier League teams. No matter which team Luton draws as his opponent, it will not be easy.

　　 But the FA Cup semi-final match is already a month away, so Gao Bo has not considered the FA Cup for now. In addition to paying attention to the draw tonight, Gao Bo began to focus on the league again.

　　 On the day when he returned to Luton, Gao Bo gave the team a day off, and Gao Bo casually let himself take a day off.

　　 Since the second division has forty-six rounds of the league, Luton needs to take into account the situation of the cup, the schedule is even more intensive than some Premier League teams. Therefore, the team's strings have collapsed during this time.

　　 Gao Bo understands the truth that it is too late.

Gao Bo didn't go anywhere during his day of vacation. After returning to the apartment, he first made up his sleep, then got up in the afternoon and read the newspaper for a while. He wanted to go out in the afternoon and wait for a drink in the bar. In the bar the final game of the FA Cup quarter-finals and the draw after the game.

　　 But when Gao Bo opened the curtains, looking at the patter of rain outside the window, he knew that his plan was ruined. It seems that I can't go anywhere today.

　　 Gao Bo made a pot of tea for himself, then turned on the TV.

　　 Just when Gao Bo and others were a little impatient, BBC Sports finally started live broadcasting.

　　 The game was played at Liverpool's home stadium, Anfield, and both sides sent the strongest lineup.

　　Liverpool is once again far away from the Premier League champions this season~www.ltnovel.com~ In order not to let themselves be empty-handed after the end of the season, they must also win in the FA Cup in order to explain to the fans.

　　 While Fulham is in the middle of the league, it is basically impossible to qualify for the European war, but there is no concern about relegation. In the league, Fulham is basically in a running state.

In terms of strength, Liverpool is much better than Fulham, but in such a single-game knockout system where both sides are extremely committed, Liverpool wants to easily take Fulham. It is not easy.

　　 This is a very difficult game for both sides. However, in the 73rd minute of the second half, Gerrard broke Fulham's goal with a long shot, breaking the deadlock in the game.

　　 Then Liverpool managed to maintain the one-to-zero score until the final whistle blew, won the game, and got the final ticket to the FA Cup semi-final.

　　The draw ceremony for the FA Cup semi-final was also held immediately after the game.

　　 Everton was the first to be drawn out, and then Liverpool was also drawn out.

　　 In this way, the result is certain.

　　 The Merseyside Derby was played in the FA Cup semi-finals, and Luton was drawn to Arsenal...

　　 Gao Bo turned off the TV after seeing the result. He walked to the balcony and looked at the two- or three-story apartment not far away.

　　 Arsenal was drawn...

　　 Gao Bo frowned, Wenger's team can't handle it.

　　 He held the railing of the balcony, and the lights of the distant floor shined through the rain curtain on the white wall and red tiles.

　　 is another new challenge...

　　 Fighting with people is endless fun! Gao Bo fully charged himself again.
