Chapter 108 What is a walking goal?

Once the balance on the court is broken, the result will develop in an unpredictable direction.

In the second half, the Rotherham team, which was preparing to attack, was inexplicably scored.

The opponent's forward can easily get the ball in his own dangerous zone, which is very scary.

Defensive midfielder Paul Green was scolded by the head coach, and the scolding was very unpleasant.

The team should defend first and then think about how to attack.

Rather than absentmindedly wanting to attack while on defense.

Especially when it comes to Rossi's defense, we can't be careless in the slightest.

He has a very strong ability to read the game and not only identifies Paul's offensive tendencies but also looks for his defensive gaps.

The most terrifying thing is that his passing is so elusive.

The top scorer in the British Championship is not just a simple shooter.

Rotherham fell behind, and head coach Steve had to make changes. He replaced center Clark Harris with Derby Hill to strengthen the speed and impact of the front line.

Since midfielder Prieger focused on the defensive end of the team and had no time to organize the offense, Steve asked the two full-backs to move forward and launch the attack from the side.

But in doing so, Rotherham loses its advantage in the midfield. The full-backs' personal abilities alone cannot open up the team's wing advantage.

After all, Bournemouth's strongest strength is its side counterattacks.

In the 64th minute, Steve made another substitution, replacing the exhausted Prieger and replacing him with Scalz.

His presence on the court can effectively limit the opponent's midfielder's ability to play the ball, and can also free up the midfielder's ability to attack from behind.

When Rotherham transitioned from defense to attack, the full midfielders and full backs on the attacking side moved forward to attack.

Midfielder Smallwood supplemented the defense of the rib space on the strong side, thereby transforming the formation into a 3-2-2-3, maximizing the numerical advantage on the wing.

The Bournemouth team began to switch to a tight defense, and the midfielder and frontcourt still used aggressive attacks to limit Rotherham's side speed.

Not to mention Rotherham, the entire English Championship now has no good way to press Bournemouth in the frontcourt.

Want to go head-to-head?

They are a team that even Liverpool dares to press high.

Unable to find an advantage on the wing, Rotherham had to use lateral movement to hit the opponent's weak side.

When left midfielder Frey Clinton was making a lateral transfer, the ball was intercepted by Gosling, and Scalz immediately counterattacked.

His purpose is not to steal the ball, but to limit Gosling's forward passing route.

"Hey, here!"

With no chance to play the ball, Gosling wanted to control the rhythm, and Rossi appeared next to him in time to ask for the ball.

This is a tactic that Bournemouth is very familiar with. Rossi drops back to organize the attack, and Wilson, Ryan Fraser and Ritchie quickly move forward.

Before receiving the pass from his teammate, Rossi turned his head forward to observe the position of his teammate. Without stopping the ball, he directly sent a ball from behind, passed between the two defensive midfielders, and handed it to Ricci.

Ricci is not a fast player. After taking a few steps, he was caught up by the opponent's midfielder, and both of them immediately started to pull.

Ritchie's physical confrontation was no match for Smallwood. Before he fell to the ground, he passed the ball to Wilson on the right.

Facing central defender Anasson, Wilson used a fake move to shake off the defense, and in a very small gap, he dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

Wilson dribbled the ball along the baseline, and Anasson, who was chasing after him, blocked the passing line. Once the opponent took a shot, he could easily poke the ball out of the baseline.

A corner kick opportunity, which cannot be said to be very good, he will try to cross.

Wilson made a reasonable physical collision with Anasson, gained a passing space, picked up the ball with his right foot, and passed it out.

In order to avoid the opponent's block on this pass, Wilson did not dare to use a low ball.

The ball flies high towards the goal. Whether it can pose a threat depends on your teammates.

Goalkeeper Adam Colin moved quickly along with the trajectory of the ball. When he saw Ryan Fraser jumping high in the back, his expression changed drastically. He didn't care about the angle of his shot. He flew across and blocked the goal with his body.

.

Fraser's header hit Adam's right leg, flew to the back post and rolled towards the baseline.

This extreme save made the fans in the stands behind the goal gasp in shock.

Just when Frazier was upset about missing this inevitable goal, he suddenly stretched out one foot and kicked the ball hard before it flew out of the goal range.

The whole process was so lightning-fast that after the ball was poked in, the man also flew into the net.

When the man ran out of the goal with the ball in his arms, everyone saw him clearly.

【GOAL!!!!】

[It’s Rossi. The person who shot the shot from behind is Rossi.]

[Unbelievable, this offense was initiated by Luo in the backcourt. In just ten seconds, he actually went from the backcourt to the opponent's penalty area.]

[1:3, Bournemouth expanded its lead.]

The commentator, who was watching the entire attack process back, was a little excited.

[The ball conceded by Rotherham was due to a mistake in transferring the ball in the midfield, which was intercepted by Gosling. After passing the ball, Luo ran forward unhurriedly, without a high-intensity sprint, and appeared at the right time.

The most threatening place.]

[The camera showed Luo. He was not out of breath when completing the extremely long distance of nearly 60 meters. He was the only one who achieved a real leisurely stroll. 】

[Maybe Luo didn’t sweat. 】

The narrator joked at the end.

After taking a two-goal lead, the situation has become one-sided.

Rotherham's attacking method is single, and the wing patterns have been clearly figured out.

I want to use the midfield transfer, but the team does not have an excellent commanding core.

In the 67th minute, Rossi once again passed a very penetrating pass in the opponent's ribs, assisting Ryan Fraser to score.

1:4!

Steve stood alone in the coaching area, his eyes full of disbelief.

In the first half, his tactics were successful and even the match was evenly matched, but why did his opponent score three goals just 20 minutes into the second half?

The person leading all of this is Rosie.

As a center, he does not act as a fulcrum or compete for the top like a traditional center, but retreats to the midfielder position to organize the team's offense.

What's even more frightening is that he can always discover the loopholes in his team immediately, and his ability to seize opportunities is frightening.

Oops!

Steve's chaotic thoughts were interrupted by an exclamation from the home fans, and he looked towards the stadium.

The eye-catching Rossi appears again in the ribs, ready to receive a pass from his teammate.

Here, Rossi has threatened the goal many times.

Why does he always get the ball here? Where are the defenders?

"Clamp him, clamp him!"

At this moment, Steve wished he could be one of the players on the field and cut the ball away from Rossi's feet with a fierce shovel.

When you get the ball in the ribs, you can't stay for more than a second, because the opponent's double team will soon arrive.

Facing the attack from the midfielder, Rossi first turned his back to the defense, took a big step laterally with his right foot, and made a posture to get the ball.

Paul Green, who stepped forward to mark, did not dare to push from behind, lest he commit a foul and give his opponent an excellent opportunity to set the ball.

He stepped forward in small steps, keeping a close eye on Rossi.

At this moment, Rossi suddenly turned to his right, but the ball missed from the other direction.

Before that, Green's view of the ball was completely blocked by Rossi, and he really thought that Rossi was going to get the ball with his back at this position.

Because in such a tightly defended area, if you pass the ball with a man, you will temporarily lose control of the ball, and the ball will be cleared by your teammates who are defending you.

Sure enough, after Rossi turned around, the ball had completely escaped his control, and defender Craig Morgan competed with him for the ball at the same time.

Craig Morgan threatened Rossi with the ball here many times. When he pounced, he swung his right foot sharply in an attempt to clear the ball with his big foot.

He could have poked the ball away, but he chose to make a big-footed clearance. Due to the swing of his legs, the timing of the clearance was slowed down, and Rossi poked the ball away at a faster speed.

Wilson, once again, appears in the passing lane.

He took the ball forward by a big step, and immediately adjusted his steps as he advanced, driving directly towards the near corner of the goal.

It was a high ball at such a close distance. The goalkeeper couldn't save it and watched the ball whizzing past his fingers.

1:5!!

【GOAL, the ball has been scored again!!!】

[The Bournemouth team has completely dominated the game, and Luo actually used the ball to pass through such a tight defensive space and get rid of the defense.]

[This is a total boost of self-confidence. I dare to do such an action, and it is done very beautifully. 】

After the goal, Wilson once again rode on Rossi's back and hugged him tightly.

Eating cake has always been such a simple thing.

After the goal, Eddie Howe also replaced Rossi.

In the west stand of the stadium, die-hard fans of the home team stood up and expressed their respect for Rossi with applause.

In the next ten minutes or so, the two sides failed to score again. Bournemouth also used a 5:1 victory to win their first victory after the New Year and advance to the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Chapter completed!
