Although the sales and popularity of "The Sun" are very high, criticism from the intellectual circles points out that "The Sun" reports news in a rough, unprofessional, and non-neutral way. It often uses sensationalism to stimulate sales and meets people's low-level needs.

.

The famous "three-page girl" is one of its selling points.

However, in the sports section, there was news about Pixie Lott in the entertainment industry.

"Popular female singer, secretly meeting her boyfriend late at night in the hotel?"

In the picture, you can see that late at night, Pixie saw off a man wearing a peaked cap and got into the car, acting affectionately.

The content also pointed out that Pixie had appeared at a Bournemouth team match, which led to the inference that the mysterious man was a football player.

But this speculation was quickly denied.

First of all, Pixie is the most popular female singer-songwriter at the moment, and Bournemouth is just a British Championship team. There are no famous players in the team, so it is impossible in terms of status.

Furthermore, Pixie was in Bournemouth just for work, maybe she went to watch a game during her break, which doesn't mean anything.

As for the mysterious man with the hat, there is not much information, and in the end it was left unsolved.

The "scandalous boyfriend" is a player of the Bournemouth team. Faced with such entertainment news, it caused a lot of discussion within the team.

Everyone is investigating, who is this godly man?

Soon, such remarks were suppressed by Eddie Howe.

At the training ground, everything should be focused on football, this is not a place for chatting.

The next opponent is Nottingham Forest, a veteran team with a good historical record.

Two Champions League titles before the restructuring, one European Super Cup title, one Premier League title before the restructuring, and two FA Cup titles.

Although they are in the English Championship now, they remain at the mid-level level and are a relatively strong team among the teams that want to surpass the league.

After training, Eddie Howe gathered his players in the tactical room to analyze the opponent's formation.

Nottingham Forest is a team that is stronger in offense than defense. Its strength lies in its pressing style of play in the midfield and frontcourt. It is highly aggressive. Like Bournemouth, it is good at using wing attacks.

In response to this, Eddie Howe did not choose Ritchie, who was defensively stable, but asked Wilson to come to the right to attack Maimang.

On the front line, Rossi partners with Comer Gant. This is the first time the two have collaborated.

If the wins in the first three games were a reflection of the team's good form, then the game against Nottingham Forest was a battle that truly tested the team's strength.

This is also true. In Saturday afternoon's game, Bournemouth encountered stubborn resistance from their opponents at home.

Last season, Nottingham Forest lost 1:4 to Bournemouth on this grass. They worked hard and vowed to avenge their shame.

In the 25 minutes of the first half, players from both teams strangled in the midfield, and the confrontation was fierce. The most direct reflection of the heated scene was that two players from each team received yellow cards.

The referee does not want the rhythm of the game to be disrupted, nor does he want to become a card expert.

He called the captains of both teams over and asked them to go back and tell their teammates to move as quietly as possible so as not to get hurt.

This is in the English league, please teach me how to be smaller.

In the 37th minute, full-back Fox tackled Wilson near the sideline. The referee told him with a yellow card that such an action would result in a card.

As the two sides competed for possession of the ball in the midfield, Rossi and Comergant on the front line did not have many chances to get the ball.

The ability of both sides to defend against high-altitude balls was also good, and the hasty crosses from the wing posed almost no threat to the goal.

The heated scene lasted for 40 minutes, and the players on both sides had lost too much physical energy, so it stopped.

After no longer relying on the tactic of flying together from the wings, it is necessary to test the abilities of the midfielders on both sides.

Both teams adopt a 4-4-2 formation, with two players in the midfield, one attacking and one defending.

In Bournemouth's case, Harry Arter is responsible for pushing the ball forward, while the core of Nottingham Forest's midfield is veteran Reid.

In terms of passing, the two are evenly matched, but Reid's ability to control the ball can bring a wealth of changes to Nottingham Forest's frontcourt offense.

This Irish veteran can pass wonderful long passes in the backcourt. In the midfield, he can well connect the team's offensive and defensive transitions and is the team's speed-up machine.

Once he gets the ball outside the penalty area, his exquisite through balls and powerful long-range shots can often frighten the goalkeeper.

In guarding the veteran, Eddie Howe asked O'Kane to mark him one-on-one.

O'Kane, who is calm and takes no risks, uses his excellent judgment to use the defense to delay or limit Reid's passing.

He never takes the ball, and although he does not have efficient interception data, his close marking can make the opponent very uncomfortable when he gets the ball.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Reid picked up the ball on the left side of the penalty area. Facing O'Kane's defense, he moved the ball to the right with his right foot, followed closely with his body, and hit the goal with his right foot.

O'Kane stretched out his left foot in time to block the shot route, but Reid just faked a shot, paused on the toe of his right foot, and then passed the ball.

Continuous horizontal passes failed to get rid of the defense. O'Kane's follow-up continued to put pressure on the offensive players.

But when Reed touched the ball for the third time, he used the instep of his outside foot to pass the ball diagonally.

O'Kane was helpless with this pass. He could prevent the frontal shot, but he couldn't prevent the pass to the side.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly shot out from the side and passed the ball between the two central defenders of the Bournemouth team.

It’s Nottingham Forest youngster Assombalonga.

The young player from Congo used his speed to dribble into the penalty area, while central defenders Cook and Elphick hurriedly closed the door to defend him.

But in the end, it was a step too late, and Assombalonga dodged in. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, he volleyed hard and flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Kemp struck out quickly enough. He opened his legs slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and fell to the ground to save the ball at any time.

What I didn't expect was that this young player, without any sense of martial ethics, hit the upper corner of the goal with a confident volley.

When Kemp saw the path of the ball clearly, it was too late to save it. He stood still and made a symbolic reaching movement with his right hand. The ball had already flown into the net.

0:1!!

Oops!

The home fans exclaimed, this goal was too violent.

[Beautiful goal, Nottingham takes the lead.]

[The young player is so decisive and his shots are so beautiful that it is completely invisible. He is only 22 years old and is very confident in his ability to handle one-on-one balls in the penalty area.]

[Here, veteran Reid must be praised. He used lateral dribbling at the front of the penalty area to disrupt Bournemouth's defense, and then passed a very high-quality ball from behind. This is an absolute master's pass.

Vision and wisdom.]

Near the end of the first half, Bournemouth lost the ball, which also showed that they were at a disadvantage in the battle for the midfield.

The opponent's mid-lane penetration is quite methodical.

Eddie Howe's face turned pale instantly. He would never allow his opponent to score in the way he was good at.
