176 Chapter 176

When two Premier League teams have recently met not only in the league but also in the cup, and one side has played a humiliating scoreline, especially when these two Premier League teams are still in the same city, and just now, one of the teams has managed to snatch a signing from the other, then, when they meet -

August 20th, a sunny weekend.

But around White Hart Lane in North London, the atmosphere was a little tense.

Ron Smith had just gotten off the bus, and he was joined by a dozen other people. Except for him and a couple of old guys, all damn Tottenham fans. A fellow came over to borrow a fire, and he took out a lighter for him and talked to another old fellow. His ears rang with the taunting of Tottenham fans taunting QPR boss Kristen Lue:

“ddumpedbynick... (She's dumped by Nick!)"

The song was accompanied by laughter and name-calling, and it seemed that Tottenham fans were in a pretty good mood before the game.

Ron cursed, "A bunch of dog mongrels." ”

The old man chimed in: "Kill them." ”

They smoked cigarettes and walked forward, crossed the street, and came to the outside of the stadium. The exterior layout of the White Hart Lane course is not very well designed, and the parking lot and entrance and exit are a bit messy. At this time, a lot of fans are coming in and out. It's almost all white.

Then, Ron saw two stunned greens in blue and white shirts and three Tottenham fans in white shirts get up and down.

Before the others got closer, their mouths were already helping: "Oh bastard, don't fucking bully kids!"

However, the police intervened immediately, and the incident did not cause much harm and chaos. But the fans of the two teams were still swearing at each other, because Ron's provocation was a bit excessive, and he was also warned. He puffed out his cigarette, said a few words to the police, and walked away with a low curse.

By the time Ron came in, the game was almost underway. He drank a lot of beer in the lounge and talked to the guys about Amber's hat-trick from the last game, and when the guys came in, he went to the bathroom again, and luckily didn't miss the tee-off.

****

When the QPR coach walked out of the tunnel, the audience was singing "You're dumped by Knicks"!

And what is incompatible with this singing is Christine Lu's confident smile.

When the Argentine shook hands with Lu Ling, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I think this should not be the case." ”

"The last time I was here, they said I was going to be fired early tomorrow morning...... That's nothing compared to that. ”

Both of them laughed, and the camera was giving them expressions.

Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor's deep voice rang out: "Tottenham Hotspur have a QPR at home White Hart Lane. Mauricio Pochettino's side face a London derby in the first two weeks of the new season. It's never a good start. Kristen Lue's side have made significant progress this week, with two of their new signings, Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Hoel Campbell, both joining on Wednesday ......"

The camera swept over the faces of the two managers on the sideline and immediately fell to the bench of the QPR, where the Dutch and Costa Ricans were sitting and the two were talking. Mensah looked very excited, while Hoel Campbell looked relaxed.

Mensah's transfer fee of £28 million has reportedly broken the all-time transfer fee record for QPR and made the 19-year-old defender the most expensive Dutch player in history, surpassing Memphis Depay and Robin van Persie. He has been on loan at QPR for a season and a half, and now he has made his move official, which I believe will be very exciting for QPR fans. ”

As for Hoel Campbell, who was very good during his loan spell at Sporting last season, new Arsenal boss Allegri was keen to keep the Costa Rica international, but the player opted to join fellow London-based QPR, who reportedly paid £20 million...... With Eduardo Vargas and Glenn Mitchell also on the bench today on the bench for the first time, it looks like the QPR's squad is getting more and more complete, and with their transfer spending already reaching a staggering £83 million and buying four players, the club's ambitions should not be underestimated. ”

The whistle sounds.

As Lu Ling expected, the game against Tottenham was so fast that it was impossible to breathe.

Today she continued with her previous starting line-up, but her style of play has changed a lot.

In the first round against Middlesbrough, Lu Ling adopted a control style of play. And this one, she wasn't timid, but she did fear Tottenham's pace up front – which would expose Nedham Onoha's weaknesses even more. At least this one, she still has to endure this. So she chose to let the formation recycle as a whole.

But this in no way means that there is no offensive in the QPR.

In front of her, Yu Zixiang galloped past and met a long diagonal pass from John O'Connor at the other end of the backfield.

Patrick had already moved closer to the left side of the field, and Leon had moved to this side.

Three super capable players, about 15 meters apart, concentrate on attacking the same side!

Lu Ling has never liked the tactical idea of evenly occupying the field, and she even believes that this is one of the problems that has been criticized in English football.

And she has always preferred to see good players form local groups, combine strong forces, and concentrate on attacking the opponent's side. As long as one link in the opponent's defensive chain collapses, it means the collapse of the whole.

She and Nick have a strikingly similar mindset on this point, and they both see this stacking of strengths as a way to maximize their attack.

Now on the left, three young players from Queens Park Rangers are performing.

Zixiang quickly gave Patrick to the ribs, and then immediately inserted diagonally into the ribs and Patrick crossed positions, sent Trikra to the sideline to easily pass Kyle Walker, and then picked it to Leon, Leon gently rubbed the outside of his instep before the opponent's central defender Alderweireld came up, just to find Zixiang who was keeping up.

This triangular pass, without pause, is extremely smooth.

Zixiang picked up his left foot at the top of the arc and shot angrily with the outside instep, and the fast curling ball hit the corner of the goal with a "bang" and bounced out.

And after this attack, Tottenham's players were visibly nervous. In attack, the two full-backs, especially Kyle Walker on the right, were a little hesitant to press.

Lu Ling kept gesturing to the field, which meant that his players kept their patience and continued to retreat without having to fight for the ball.

Wait for the best chance to fight back.

Kyle Walker's nature is still attacking after all – the right wing-back was the player who sprinted the most in the Premier League last season.

In the 38th minute, with a kick by Eriksen to transfer the ball, he couldn't hold it back, but still caught the ball at high speed and rushed up.

Pochettino shouted to the midfielder Wanyama for him to move behind him to protect Walker.

Walker hoisted the ball into the box.

Nedham was very comfortable with this style of play in the box, jumping high and pushing the ball wide.

Two people landed on the ball at the same time, QPR's Patrick Amber and Tottenham defender Victor Wanyama.

Patrick was nowhere near as big as Wanyama, but he stepped into position, slightly outstretched his right arm, backed his back, and then extended his left foot to let the ball land on his feet.

Pochettino's voice came at the same time, "Don't let him turn around!"

Wanyama immediately stretched out his right arm to one side of Patrick's body, and pressed his left leg against Patrick's waist. It's definitely a tough midfielder to deal with.

But Patrick's left foot unloaded the ball from the air on his foot, and he hooked the ball to his foot and turned around with his center of gravity!

Wanyama was completely stunned, not reacting to where the ball was - in fact, the ball never landed, sticking to Patrick's feet. As if by magic, he slipped under the armpit of the tall Kenyan international and shook him off.

"Oh, I can't believe it's an unreal man, his feet are like glue!" exclaimed Martin Taylor.

Patrick dribbles over the center circle. Zixiang was beside him, slamming into the air behind Walker, who was chasing back at high speed, but he was running towards Patrick.

It seems that Walker is about to foul, Lu Ling thought to himself.

Patrick didn't give him that chance, he suddenly slowed down, flicked the ball to his left, and flicked it some distance.

Walker, who was chasing back, thought that Patrick was too big and was about to go up and cut the ball off.

Walker did cut off the ball.

But Patrick's right foot came over suddenly. The two fought hard, Walker didn't expect this, and Patrick stood firmly. Walker fell straight and turned his horse on his back.

This is a way to deliberately induce the opponent to steal, and then take advantage of the opponent's unstable footing to get the ball back.

Of course, this is not a statistically good pass, just a steal after losing the ball, but-

It's a miraculous performance.

Lu Ling put his hands in his pockets, and there was a little smile on the corner of his mouth, this guy is really a monster. He is simply full of confidence, no, not only self-confidence, but also arrogance and willfulness. Experimenting with this new play on his national team teammates, Walker probably didn't realize he was being played by Patrick.

On the court, Patrick quickly started from Walker, who was lying on the ground, and continued to move forward with the ball, the whole process was actually only two seconds. After that, he played the ball forward to Leon and then quickly cut into the box himself.

Leon knocked the ball to the left, Zixiang took the ball and crossed-

Patrick had already made his way between the two centre-backs and Tottenham goalkeeper Lloris leaped forward to pick the half-high ball away.

But the ball was in front of the point, and the pace was very fast, and before Lloris could get into place, Patrick had already taken the lead, twisting his body and rubbing his right heel into it.

The ball flies over the near post and into the net!

QPR away 1:0 Tottenham.

Martin Taylor roared, and Alan Smith, the guest next to him, exclaimed: "It's so shocking, I'm already thinking back to the goal, Patrick Amber went all the way to 60 or 70 yards, and if he performs like this every round, then I think he's the best candidate for this year's Ballon d'Or." ”

The fans in the away fan zone at White Hart Lane all jumped up, and Ron clenched his fists and bared his teeth with glory on his face and yelled at the Tottenham fans in the distance: "you at least twice a season, this is the first time!"

A few minutes later, the first half of the game was over. 166 Reading Network
