Chapter 105: The Second Half Arrangement
Chapter 105: The arrangement of the second half
"Matt and Adam on the sidelines have been warming up for a while, and the first half is almost over, so it seems that Luton Town is not going to make a substitution in the first half!" Letkinson said from the commentary bench.
Gobo also didn't plan to make a substitution in the first half, especially with players he planned to make in Hassan Ali.
Hassan Ali has just been showing confidence for a while, and if he is replaced now, then the young player that Gao Bo has worked so hard to develop will be ruined....
And it was Gao Bo who pushed Hassan Ali to the front court, let him grab the ball at the feet of these Arsenal players who are very good at his feet, and struggled in the front court, it was not Hassan Ali's fault, it was caused by Gao Bo's improper arrangement and tactics. Therefore, Gao Bo will not let the players lose confidence because of their mistakes.
Fortunately, now Hassan Ali has done a very good job after changing his job responsibilities.
Agile and fit, Hassan Ali clings to Cesc Fabregas like a kraft candy, leaving the playmaker, who was quite impressive in the first half of the first half, largely without much on the ball during this period.
In the face of Arsenal's attack, Luton's players also did well after the recovery, they showed great tenacity!
When Gao Bo chooses players, he likes to put those players with very strong mental attributes in the starter, and it turns out that the team composed of such a group of mentally strong guys is not so easy to defeat easily!
.........
Arsene Wenger thought Luton would come up late in the game, but it didn't.
This made the old French man a little regretful, but the current format of the game is still in Arsenal's favor, so he doesn't care.
The first half was quickly coming to an end, Arsenal saw that Luton had no intention of attacking in the end, but they tried to attack again in the last few minutes, and in the end Arsenal did not score again, and Luton did not seem to be able to threaten the Arsenal penalty area at all, they could only defend passively in the middle and back!
Luton were able to grab the ball on a couple of occasions but the counter-attack failed and Vardy found himself caught in the middle of a two-man tie between Colo Toure and Silvetez.
After all, it's weak...
Luton's dugout and bench were bleak, but that didn't include Gao Bo.
In fact, from several tackles at Luton, Gobo saw hope for a goal in the second half!
The tackle success rate card on the equipment now has increased the number of tackles for Luton players, especially players like N'Golo Kante, who are already good at defense, and the steal success rate has become very high with the increase of this card!
When Van Persie pulled into midfield to pick up the ball and turned and fired a long-range shot over the crossbar, the referee blew three whistles to blow the whistle for the end of the first half.
"The first half is over!! Arsenal lead Luton Town 1-0, who have achieved the semi-finals of the FA Cup this season and are the first time they have fallen behind in the FA Cup, will they be able to turn the score around? We'll be back in fifteen minutes! Lightkinson said as he grabbed the microphone in the commentary seat.
Can Luton Town turn it around?
It's a question that even the most hardcore Luton fans would dare not answer "yes"...
However, the Luton fans did not look sad about the team's first-half deficit, and when the players made their way to the players' tunnel and passed the stands, the Luton fans began to cheer on the players.
The faces of the Luton players were solemn, but they raised their hands and applauded in response to the enthusiasm of the fans.
There was also a group of people in the stands watching the team.
They are Chinese journalists sitting in the media gallery.
A Chinese coach led a second division team to the semi-finals of the FA Cup!
Such news detonated domestic football.
Who is Gao Bo?
This question makes domestic fans want to know, it can be said that if the media first takes out Gao Bo's interview video and reveals Gao Bo's identity first, this media will be able to get unparalleled traffic!
In this era of the Internet, traffic is money.
So many media sent reporters, but the reporters were not able to interview Gao Bo in Luton, because Gao Bo has been busy preparing for the FA Cup semi-finals during this time, and he has instructed Luton's staff to push off all the interviews requested by the media.
Whether it's England or China.
"Isn't he just a second-division coach, what's bullish?" A middle-aged man with eyes sat in the stands and pouted his lips and said to a young man next to him.
They were reporters for the newspaper Sport, which has a large circulation in China, but they came to ask for an interview a few days ago, but Luton was directly turned away.
"I can't say that, Editor Zhang, I heard that they are going to be upgraded soon." "And it's not a matter of luck that they got to the last four of the FA Cup, they knocked out Chelsea and Manchester City to get to the last four!" It shows that this coach is still level. ”
"Cut.... There's a horizontal fart.." The middle-aged man said, "I don't know the level of football in our country?" Can you make a famous coach in this bullshit football environment? Is it possible? Even if Luton Town reaches the semi-finals of the FA Cup, it's an English player who is awesome, and what to do with him..."
"Xiao Liu, let me tell you, this kind of coach who can't be a human being will not be popular for three years at most!!" The middle-aged man said, "Look, once they are eliminated in this game, after the heat subsides, who do you think will remember him?" ”
Xiao Liu had a different opinion, because he had carefully checked Luton's information, and he knew what the situation of this team was before Gao Bo arrived at Luton. But he didn't dare to argue loudly with this colleague who was older than him, after all, the other party was an old fritter who had worked in the newspaper for almost 20 years, and he was a young reporter who had just come to the newspaper for only a year, so how could he afford to offend the other party.
However, there is one thing he agrees with, and that is that in this game, Luton have little chance. Arsenal scored first, and if you want to equalize in the second half, you have to attack aggressively, and a big attack will give Arsenal more space, with Arsenal's strength, it is not a problem to score another goal or two goals in the second half.
The conversation between the two reporters certainly did not affect Gao Bo's train of thought in the second half.
After comforting Hassan Ali, he announced that he would bring on Adam and Matt at the start of the second half, and they replaced Hassan Ali and Lewis Emmanuel.
The players thought that the coach was ready to press the attack aggressively in the second half, but Gao Boque did not arrange it this way.
"Look for Ebrahimb more when you get the ball on the pitch, this full-back has a lot of movements!" Gao Bo put his arms around Adam and explained, "Make him foul!!" ”
Adam nodded vigorously, he didn't get a chance to start again during this time, and due to his physical limitations, a player who could only use half the court could not be a regular regular regular for the team.
Gao Bo actually hopes that Adam will train his physical fitness as soon as possible, but this is not a matter of one or two days, maybe next season you can slowly try to put him in the starting lineup and try to play sixty or seventy minutes...
'We made more free-kicks in the second half!! We hit them on the top of the head!! ”
Gao Bo stood up and looked around at the players and said.
