Chapter 109 I have Rosie, who am I afraid of?

After the game, the Bournemouth team did not leave, but chose to stay one night in Rotherham to celebrate their victory.

Before 12 o'clock, Rossi was already yawning again and again. He couldn't hold it anymore and returned to the hotel early to rest.

After taking a shower, Rossi lay on the big bed in the hotel and entered his property panel.

Participating in the highly valuable FA Cup for the first time and receiving system rewards after the game is a "highlight moment card".

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the 'human and ball separation' skill."

Hiss~

Rossi was a little disappointed. He had used this skill before, so the system rewarded him with this skill, which was a bit "redundant".

He casually checked the action display of the skill, and after a second, his scalp went numb.

This was not an ordinary pass, it was a turn by "Ice Prince" Bergkamp.

The movements are elegant, the technique is superb, and it can be used in a small area. It can be called the "turn of the century".

Why does such a good skill have a cooldown time?

The next morning, Rossi got up early and practiced anaerobic exercise in the hotel gym for an hour.

Self-discipline is an important factor in maintaining a player's condition. Even if the team wants to celebrate, Rossi must end it before 12 o'clock.

The teammates didn't get up until noon. After lunch, they took the bus back to Bournemouth.

The winter schedule is relatively easy, with only 4 league games in January. As the team advances to the next round of the FA Cup, there is an extra cup match.

The next opponent is Norwich.

In the first round of the round robin, Bournemouth faced their iron defense and scored three goals with three shots on target, reversing the game 3:1.

This time when we return to the home game, we cannot be careless.

At this time, many European leagues have entered the winter break. Teams are resting and players are on vacation. Only a few leagues are still playing.

The temporary "rest" has made winter transfers one of the focuses of fans' attention.

According to usual practice, the winter transfer window is far less generous than the summer transfer window. The media and fans have speculated who will be the top bidder in the winter transfer window.

Small teams like Bournemouth can only strengthen their lineups during the winter transfer period by loaning out or recalling players who have performed well abroad.

The day before the game against Norwich, Rossi received a call from Omar, saying that he had several sponsorship projects and that he would meet to discuss them in detail after the game tomorrow.

Rossi was very positive about this manager's professional attitude. It should be a good business contract, so he couldn't wait to meet and discuss it in detail.

After all, this is what people rely on for their livelihood, so you can't just focus on your annual salary commission.

Saturday's game was more difficult than expected.

Although playing at home, Norwich itself is very strong.

Forward Grabban wants to challenge Rossi again on the road.

Prior to this, he suffered a serious injury and was absent for three months.

Currently, there is a 12-goal difference between the two on the scorer list. It is a bit out of reach to overtake in the second half.

At least now, we must respond with goals.

The Bournemouth team, which maintains an unbeaten record, used the frontcourt to press and compete for the ball after the opening.

One game a week, allowing players from both sides to fight without sparing any effort.

Bournemouth want to maintain their unbeaten record.

Norwich City will compete for a place in the promotion play-offs.

Ritchie and Pugh appeared in the wide midfield position. This time Bournemouth gave up their counterattack speed from the wing and instead used passes to create opportunities for Rossi on the front line.

Wilson's widening also attracted Rossi's defense.

At the beginning of the season, this was the job given to him by Rossi.

Unexpectedly, less than half a year later, the two of them would turn around.

Wilson not only did not complain, but also enjoyed it.

Why?

Because it’s happy!

In the 18th minute, Bournemouth cooperated in the frontcourt. Norwich's 4-1-2-1-2 diamond-shaped midfielder was caught by Pugh in the wing space and continued to drive horizontally at the front of the penalty area.

The ball attracts two defensive players.

Rossi moved between the full-back and central defender, waiting for opportunities.

After observing that Rossi deliberately kept his position with the opponent's full-back to avoid stepping into the opponent's offside position, Pugh immediately passed the ball through.

Rossi's start instantly distanced him from the central defender.

Although Michael Turner's pursuit was half a step late, the goalkeeper struck in time to block the angle of Rossi's shot.

Under such double-teaming, Rossi decisively knocked the ball horizontally in front of the goal, followed closely by Wilson, who faced the empty goal and scored easily.

The ball went in!

Let me tell you, this is not about playing football, it is about happiness.

Will playing for Rossi affect your own goals?

No!

Not only will it not happen, but it will lead to more penetration and be more comfortable.

The entire Bournemouth team, which was leading at home, gathered around and hugged Rossi.

Selfless ball distribution, humble character, and cool skills.

They wanted to fall in love with Rosie.

Not to be outdone, Norwich fought more fiercely after losing the ball and made more decisive moves than before.

Under the cheers of the home fans, players from both sides had a heated argument due to a foul, and were each slapped fifty times by the referee.

Grabban also kept raising his arms to make the visiting Norwich fans more enthusiastic and create more momentum.

He has been away from the field for a long time and needs the encouragement of fans to stimulate his state.

He used his strong body to make waves in the Bournemouth penalty area.

In the 20th minute, full-back Whittaker quickly came up the sideline and made a pass.

Grabban jumped high, grabbed the top spot, overpowered Cook, and headed towards the goal, but unfortunately the goalkeeper held the crossbar with his hand.

Norwich took a corner kick and hit Jerome before hitting it, but Grabban used the impact of his body to volley sideways.

Due to the difficulty of shooting, the shot did not hit the right spot and went over the crossbar and hit the fans' stands behind the goal.

Oops!

The goal was almost lost, and the home fans screamed in surprise.

Grabban, who missed the opportunity, covered his face in frustration and ran back to his own half.

Although no goals were scored in the two attacks, they both threatened the goal. Especially Grabban's strong performance, his desire to attack was extremely strong, and he tried his best in every attack.

In the 36th minute, Grabban, who missed the chance to score, finally found a chance in front of the goal.

Norwich passed the ball from the wing. After Grabban's first header was saved by the goalkeeper, the ball was still in the penalty area, triggering a melee in the penalty area.

First, Roger May's follow-up shot was blocked by defender Elphick. The goalkeeper hurriedly fell to the ground to save the ball, but Grabban extended his kick early and poked the ball into the net.

【GOAL!!!!】

[With Norwich’s unremitting efforts, Grabban finally equalized the score, and both sides returned to the same starting line.]

[Graban, facing his old club, scored again, breaking his 102-day goal drought.]

After scoring the goal, Grabban ran to his fans' stand, opened his arms and felt the cheers of the fans.

The Bournemouth team did not make any major mistakes tactically.

Just because Grabban's personal ability is so strong, he is absolutely impossible to defend against alone.

For such players, the usual approach is to have similar teammates help defend together.

But doing so will create gaps in other positions.

Eddie Howe is not an ordinary coach, and Norwich are not a weak team.

Grabban has a strong desire to attack, but he is not a lone wolf. If faced with multiple double-teams, he is also willing to help his teammates with the ball.

Eddie Howe and Bournemouth know him too well.

"Luo, press forward for me."

In the Championship, when it comes to attacking, I, Eddie Howe, have never been afraid of anyone.

Because I have Rosie.
Chapter completed!
