Chapter 169: Technical Knockout

Gobo didn't see John's sorrow, and now was the time for him to be in high spirits.

He gathered these players, he formed a team, and then instilled in this team his tactical ideas, and now, his tactical ideas have proven to work on the pitch and can win!

What could be more satisfying?

Gao Bo forcibly interrupted the satisfaction in his heart.

He had read a sentence and thought so.

Satisfaction is the beginning of going downhill!!

Lao Tzu doesn't need to be satisfied!!

I'm hungry all the time!!

Gao Bo drove the little satisfaction in his heart out of the clouds.

It's just a small team like Basel, and even Barcelona will be knocked down by their own skills in the future!!

Gao Bo stood on the sidelines and yelled at the players on the field: "That's how you kick!" Don't relax!!!!! ”

.....

Basel's players were in a bit of a hurry, and they were in a hurry to equalise after conceding a goal.

But the game was fragmented at this point, which was the rhythm that Luton liked to play, but for Basel it meant that their attack was completely unstoppable.

What's worse is that the offensive is not well organized, and the defensive line has frequent problems.

In the 18th minute, Luton hit back again, Adam White's shot from inside the box was blocked by the goalkeeper, and then Drinkwater won the ball on the edge of the box and volleyed high.

In the twenty-sixth minute of the game, Luton's counterattack came again.

This time it's even more dangerous!!

Vardy almost made a one-on-one shot, but when he turned, goalkeeper Costanzo was brought down with the ball.

Luton's players protested against the goalkeeper for a foul on the ball, but the referee did not say anything.

Gao Bo looked angry on the sidelines, and he jumped up directly.

"It's our home !!!"

It's a pity that the referee and the fourth official ignored him.

On the other side, Basel coach Torsten Fink doesn't have the spirit to argue with Gao Bo, and his team is very passive right now.

The offense was not well organized, and the defense was frequently problematic.

If it goes on like this, it will be a matter of time before the second goal is conceded.

So Tosten Fink reacted quickly, and Basel's side didn't press up.

They decided to drag out the remaining ten minutes of the first half and then find a way to attack in the second half.

The wish was good, but the reality gave Basel a blow to the players.

Basel took the initiative to slow down the tempo and then hoard the backcourt to get them through the safety period of more than ten minutes.

But in the 45th minute, Luton's formation began to press, pressing directly on the edge of Basel's penalty area.

In stoppage time, Drinkwater cut the ball off and passed to Adam White on the left.

Adam was ready to cross after a pass, but he was tripped and the referee awarded a free-kick in front of him.

Antoine Griezmann came to take the free-kick and he slotted it down the middle.

Veteran Saul Campbell leaps high in the box and heads the ball into the Basel goal!!

Two-to-!!

The referee then blew the whistle for the end of the first half without waiting for the game to restart.

.......

At half-time, Tosten Fink probably said something in the dressing room, which made the Basel players almost red-eyed at the start of the second half!

Basel are not looking for much ground action now, instead playing crosses from the wings.

It's just that Basel is obviously not a team that is good at attacking like this, and after giving up their original advantage, Basel's attack seems to be even more chaotic.

Tosten adjusted Basel's attacking style through substitutions.

In the fiftieth minute, Tosten made the first substitution.

Right winger Almerames came on and replaced midfielder Stoke.

After the substitution, Basel's style of play became more direct, with Almerames seeking crosses from the flank, while another of Basel's other wide players, Calitos, also played on the flank.

Gao Bo clasped his hands on his chest, he didn't expect the opponent to suddenly change his tactical style so completely, but after Gao Bo saw the two Basel strikers in the penalty area, he knew that Basel's move had no effect.

Their best possession tactics are hard to play and want to try their luck with crosses?

This will only add more confusion to their players.

Gao Bo sat back in the coach's seat, and he was ready to make a substitution.

Midfielder Nick Rose stands on the sidelines.

This is a player promoted by Gao Bo from the academy, 19 years old this year, with a strong body and good skills at his feet, especially a good cross.

Gao Bo was going to let him play Kevin Keane off the bench.

He was also going to replace Kevin Keane, who was almost in full attendance during this time, so Gao Bo decided to replace Kevin Keane and let him rest a little.

Kevin had no objection to being substituted, taking off the captain's armband and running to the backcourt to put it on for Saul Campbell.

The team currently has two captains, Kevin Keane and George Parker, both of whom are out of the court right now, so Kevin has no problem giving the captain's armband to the oldest Saul Campbell.

The substitution was completed quickly, and Nick Rose couldn't wait to give the captain a high-five before rushing onto the pitch. It was his first appearance of the season.

Nick Rose quickly showed his role as he first went all the way back to the wing, then rushed along the wing to the front, and then received a long pass from Drinkwater, looked inside the box and crossed the ball.

"Pretty !!"

Mr. Rentkinson's eyes lit up, too.

Nick's cross made an arc, and the speed, height, and line were perfect.

Jamie Vardy's header in the middle of the box was very comfortable, which also allowed Luton to score their third goal of the game.

With that goal, Luton Town were already sealed in the win.

Next, Gao Bo continued to make substitutions.

Hassan Ali came on and he came on for Adam White.

Later, Gao Bo also made changes in the front line, Vardy, who had run for most of the half, was replaced, and Matt stood on the sidelines to prepare for the game.

In the final stage of the game, Gao Bo completely regarded the game as a training arena for players.

'Gobo brought on a couple of youngsters who had been on the pitch for lesser appearances, and in the second half, Luton were in complete control of the game, and Basel were almost technically knocked out at the Stade de Wows, and they looked like they had no room to fight back.

Lightkinson sat down in the commentary box, and at this stage of the game, there was little to see for the rest of the game, unless Basel could score a goal.

Basel's players are really working hard and they want to do that.

Basel had thought they might be able to get some chances after Luton's substitution.

But the process of the game gradually made their hearts cold.

Basel tried to threaten Luton's goal with a long ball in the end, but they didn't achieve much success, and Luton's counter-attacking threat made Basel break out in a cold sweat.

In the end, they could only dare to press the back line on the one hand, and on the other hand, they also wanted to score at least one goal to save face.

But at the end of the game, Basel didn't get his way.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, a hazy drizzle still enveloped the stadium.

It's just that the weather in this England.... It seems to be getting colder.
