Chapter 30: Efficiency is King

In the next game, Luton still did not have possession most of the time, but now everyone knows that Luton is not focusing on the battle for possession, although it is now Nottingham Forest side in possession, but the pace of the game is in the hands of the home team Luton.

Just before the end of the first half, Luton had a couple of chances to threaten the Nottingham Forest goal, and had it not been for the impressive performance of Forest goalkeeper Lee Kemp, the score would have been more than 2-0.

Gao Bo was quite satisfied with this, and the game situation was in control of his side.

The first half passed quickly, with the home side leading by two goals and the fans in the stands gave their applause to the players and coaches of Luton Town.

At halftime, Gao Bo praised Vardy's performance in the first half, and also praised the performance of the whole team, the content of the usual training was completely played, the defensive formation was tight, the discipline was maintained very well, the speed and efficiency of the counterattack were quite high, Gao Bo had nothing to say, the winning team would not take the initiative to change, so he just asked the team to play like in the first half.

In the other dressing room, it's a different story.

Billy Davies was furious at this point, and he took all the anger he had accumulated in the first half out on the Forest players. In the locker room, almost all the players who started were scolded by him ....

As a Championship team, Billy Davis has long been angry with such a scene in front of a team in the second division.

He didn't think it was Luton Town that were too strong, although Jamie Dardy looked quick and had a good chance to take his chances, and the midfield combination of N'Golo Kante and Danny Drinkwater was impressive at both ends of the pitch, but Billy Davies believes it was all because the Forest side didn't pay enough attention to the game, and it was the result of their undershooting!

How strong can a second-division team that has lost most of its main force be?

Billy Davies believes that Forest are much better than Luton, but the presence of players on the football pitch is an important factor in determining the outcome of a game, so he will have to wake up Nottingham Forest at half-time.

Nottingham Forest is no longer the red whirlwind that dominated Europe in the past, but they are not a weak team to be kneaded, let alone a team that is two levels lower than them!

The frenetic stands cooled down a bit due to the half-time break.

Fans will also want to take advantage of the half-time break to trim a little and then continue to fight with the team in the second half.

Roy sat in the press booth, and she was scribbling.

Although she is still angry at the thought of Gao Bo, the ethics of a media professional still require her to record the news truthfully.

“..... Luton looked like they had been suppressed by Forest in the first half, but in the first thirty minutes or so, Luton suddenly came out of nowhere, and their two goals were extremely similar, and if you watched their first league game, you will find that almost all of Luton's goals were scored in this way: through dense formational defense, the opponent's attack was helpless, and when the ball was successful, Luton's counter-attack was very !! With just a few foot passes, you can develop the ball into the lethal zone. Their two strikers, Jamie Vardy and Charlie Austin, are not slow, Vardy is a superb shooter, and Charlie Austin's movement is also very subtle, the two work closely together, and more importantly, both strikers will be involved in defence, and no one in the Luton squad has the privilege of not having to defend. ”

“...... Judging from these two games, Gao Bo's transformation of the team was very successful! ”

Roy closed the notebook.

Her main audience for the Hat-Seller is the local population of Luton, which overlaps with the Luton fan base, so news about the Luton team is an important part of the paper.

Although he is reluctant to admit it, Gao Bo is indeed a coach with a level.

The thought of this made Roy a little frustrated.

Why does talent always appear in the hands of those bastards!

"Bastard !!"

The thought of Gao Bo's eyes looking at her chest made Roy angry.

"Miss Roy! Don't come unharmed! ”

Gao Bo came out of the locker room early. After briefly explaining some details of the second half, Gao Bo left the dressing room to the players.

Roy turned his head to see Gao Bo coming out of the players' tunnel.

"Mr. Gao Bo, halftime is a very important time for the manager." Roy turned his head, not looking willing to give Gao Bo a second look.

"Yes to others, not to me..."Gao Bo suddenly leaned over.

The press box was next to the players' tunnel, and Loy was sitting on the very side, and while Roy was sitting, Gao Bo was standing just as tall as Loy in the tunnel.

Roy suddenly felt a burst of breathing, and when she turned her head, she saw Gao Bo's face.

Oh.... It's pretty handsome...

Before Roy could react, Gao Bo turned around and left.

"Because I'm a liar coach, Miss Roy!"

Looking at Gao Bo's back, Luo Yi was angry, and she was just about to fight back, when the loud voice of the live DJ rang out.

"Luton fans!! The second half of the game starts immediately!! Now let's welcome the players back to the pitch with the Luton Heroes!!!!! ”

The huge sound at the scene made Roy only look at Gao Bo's back as he walked farther and farther away.

In the second half, Nottingham Forest launched a fierce attack from the start. But immediately Luton's counterattack completely extinguished the arrogance of Nottingham Forest's counterattack.

This time it was Charlie Austin who scored the goal.

Drinkwater sent a long ball to the wing, Lewis Emmanuel sent in a cross from the baseline, and Charlie Austin headed home from the middle of the box to make it 3-0!!

'Nottingham Forest suffered a rout and Luton Town is a really surprising team. There is one statistic that is estimated to shock all the fans, so far, Nottingham Forest have had three shots on goal, all of which were missed, while Luton's side also had three shots on goal, three shots in the woodwork, three goals!! This kind of goal efficiency is really amazing! The narrator sighed.

The third goal was less agitated by Gao Bo, who stood up and applauded, and then sat down again soon afterward.

The game ended 3-0 with Luton Town beating Nottingham Forest at home to advance to the second round of the League Cup!

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game and Gao Bo walked to the Nottingham Forest dugout with a smile on his face, Billy Davies grimaced and reluctantly touched Gao Bo's hand before returning to the dressing room.

The lads at Nottingham Forest will probably be able to take it a little later.

Gao Bo and his players stayed in the stadium to celebrate the victory.

Two consecutive wins at the start of the new season made Gao Bo confident in his tactics.
