Chapter 160: Let the opponent see how powerful Griezmann is

Two consecutive draws have left Luton's prospects in the First Division unfavourable.

“...... There is no doubt that Luton Town are not quite ready for the First Division, which is undoubtedly of a higher standard than the Second Division, which means that it will be difficult for Luton Town to win in the same way they did in the First Division. They were so showy during this time that almost all teams had to pay attention to this promoted polo team. Sky Sports said in a report.

“.... Luton Town, perhaps the most successful promotion team in the history of the First Division, have faced two successive defensive situations in which the opposition has stacked almost all their players in the box, and despite suffering two draws, their fans can be proud of themselves - the teams in the First Division almost always see them as strong opponents who surpass this league. "This is a report from the "Team Newspaper".

More media outlets are believing that a similar situation will occur more often for Luton Town in the First Division, and after the sale of Charlie Austin, Luton's attacking power has dropped significantly.

Gao Bo scoffed at this, they didn't know how terrifying this kid would be when Griezmann adapted to the league here!

Sure enough, three days later, on 22 August, Luton Town faced Hartlepool at home, and Antoine Griezmann was much more active than in the previous two games.

At the beginning of the game, Griezmann gave an assist to Adam in the penalty area after winning the ball, Adam dunked with his right foot, and then pushed with his left foot, and the ball went out of the bottom line from the post at the other end.

Hartlepool also used a dense defence against Luton, but it was clearly not very effective. They piled up numbers at the back and fielded almost every defender they could, with one goal in mind – to get a point at Wardway.

But Hartlepool's luck was clearly not good, as he happened to hit Griezmann's big outburst.

From the start of the game with a through ball to assist him, Griezmann felt that he was in very good shape. Of course, he didn't know that this was the effect of the cards - for this game, Gao Bo used the cards on the offensive end!

And in the first two games, Gao Bo, who sat in the stands, couldn't use cards, which made Gao Bo very crazy, on the one hand, he couldn't direct the game himself, and on the other hand, he couldn't even use cards, which was also an important factor for the team to encounter two consecutive draws.

The drizzled Wardridge Stadium was full of singing from the start of the game, and with the fans singing, Luton's players laid siege to Hartlepool.

The goals were also coming quickly.

In the thirteenth minute of the game, Griezmann first retreated to the forward position to get the ball, and then he stuffed the ball straight to Vardy, who returned the ball to the top of the penalty area!

And Griezmann, who rushed up, adjusted his pace, and he came to the top of the penalty area, and the football whistled towards the goal, and the goalkeeper of Hartlepool could do nothing about it!

And when the first goal was scored, the game was in full swing for Luton.

Hartlepool's strategy was to defend and get a draw away from home, but their strategy was broken in the thirteenth minute of the game, and the poor Hartlepool players now don't know what to do. They don't have many offensive players on the pitch right now.

Their head coach was also holding his forehead on the sidelines, he had watched Luton's first two games before deciding to use that method, but what can they do now?

Switching to an attacking player?

It's a little too early.

So Hartlepool's manager gave a two-handed downward press to signal the players to hold steady. After all, it's only a goal down now, and even if you want to attack, you have to wait until the second half to replace the attacking players.

Gao Bo glanced at the actions of the opposing coach, to be honest, the opponent's choice was actually right, but the only question is, can they really guarantee not to concede goals in the first half?

The answer is no!!

In the 32nd minute of the game, Luton's goal came again.

This time it wasn't Griezmann's goal, but it was his assist.

Antoine Griezmann picked the ball into the box, Adam stepped forward at high speed and gently unloaded the ball, this time his push was not off target and the ball rolled into the net.

Wows Stadium was completely boiling.

Fans bouncing around the stands made it feel like the whole stand was experiencing an earthquake.

The players hugged and celebrated in the stadium.

Gao Bo also raised his arms on the sidelines.

Two goals ahead!! This made Gao Bo breathe a sigh of relief slightly.

The two successive draws in the league have put a lot of pressure on the team, and now that the game has been basically won, with a two-goal lead, Luton Town will not give Hartlepool any chance.

The best player in the first half was undoubtedly Antoine Griezmann, who was now the heart of the attack in the front line.

With the ball in midfield and attacking and scoring in front, Griezmann stands out in the First Division.

Gao Bo believes that it won't be long before this guy will become the brightest star in the entire league.

Mendes has picked up a big bargain..... Because a few days ago, Griezmann signed a contract with Mendes's agency, of course, this company was co-founded by Mendes and Gao Bo.

In addition to Griezmann, several young players brought by Gao Bo have all signed into the agency. Gao Bo knows that he is not a business material, but he has a good eye, so his cooperation with Mendes can be regarded as a match made in heaven.

Gao Bo is also a little proud when he thinks about this, it seems that he is not only looking for some young players who will develop well in the future to make money for David Morton...

In the second half, Hartlepool brought on a couple of attacking players to fight back.

As a result, their defence has become a meadow for Luton's players.

In the 53rd minute, Adam was tripped on the edge of the box and Luton was awarded a free-kick from the edge of the box!

Antoine Griezmann's free-kick went around the wall and the goalkeeper's fingertips!!

Three to zero!!

Luton Town was in full swing in this game.

And that's not all!!

In the 68th minute, Vardy headed the ball into the back of the net from a corner kick and it was his first goal of the league!

Just two minutes after that goal, Antoine Griezmann received Adam's cross from inside the box and scrambled the ball into the back of the net.

Antoine Griezmann scored a hat-trick and all three goals had their own characteristics, from distance, from a free-kick and from inside the box. In addition to these three goals, the assists for the other two goals also came from Antoine Griezmann.

In this game, Griezmann almost completely vented the depression of the first two games, and he ushered in a big explosion!

In the 88th minute of the game, Gobo replaced Griezmann and left him alone to receive the applause of the fans. In this game alone, Antoine Griezmann will be enough to convince Luton fans.

"Well done, Anthony!!" Gao Bo hugged Griezmann.

In the end, Luton Town beat Hartlepool 5-0 to win the first game of the First Division.

The victory in this game was a relief for the whole team.

As a promoted horse, he suffered two consecutive draws in the opening game, which really put a lot of pressure on the team.

The fans were also relieved that their expectations for this season were different from last season. In various pre-season predictions, Luton are the favourites for promotion from the First Division.

It also raised the expectations of the fans. Maybe after this season, the team can return to the Championship?
