At the same time as Lu Feng and Silva were communicating, on the sidelines, the assistant coach of the Wolves team suddenly asked Cames.

"Do you want to make a substitution? I don't think Diego's mood is quite right today, and he played..."

Hearing this, Camaise fell silent.

It's not news that Diego is not in the right mood, in fact, they all knew it before the game. After all, Diego had a war of words with Lu Feng in the media - he was the first to stand up and respond to Lu Feng's "goal declaration".

Camaise knew that Diego was unhappy with the land breeze, but Carmaise didn't care

Because he wanted to use Diego's emotions towards Lu Feng to deal with Lu Feng - the scrappy Diego did not leave Lu Feng in the game, and did not give Lu Feng any chance to get the ball at all, completely freezing him.

This is the picture that Camaise sketched in his mind.

But the gap between the ideal and the reality seemed to be a bit big, and he didn't expect that Diego couldn't control his anger at all, and completely fell into the rhythm of Lu Feng.

The two goals conceded can be said to be directly related to Diego, and it was because of Diego's two fouls that Leeds United had two free kick opportunities.

Moreover, it was because of these two free-kicks that Wolves conceded twice. Even so, Diego did not have the slightest urge to reflect on himself.

After the referee made the penalty before, he was even ready to make a move on Lu Feng, if it weren't for the teammates of the Wolves team to stop him, it is estimated that such a move would be directly red carded by the referee.

It can even be said that Diego, who is not calm enough with a yellow card, has become the biggest hidden danger in the Wolves backline.

If Diego can't control his emotions and makes a dangerous foul on Lu Feng again, then he will most likely receive a second yellow card.

Then, Wolves will have one less man on the field.

At the moment, the opponent is two goals ahead, and if they have a numerical advantage, it will be quite a disadvantage for Wolves.

For that reason alone, Diego should certainly be replaced.

But Carmaiss couldn't make up his mind so quickly.

Because if Diego is to be replaced, as the team's main central defender, he has other ideas or second.

The main reason is that after replacing Diego, doesn't it mean that the defense of Lu Feng arranged before the game is wrong and failed.

In the final analysis, although Diego was a little emotionally wrong, in general, he was still completing his pre-match arrangements and using physical tactics to solve Lu Feng.

Wouldn't this replace Diego with a direct admission that his tactics were a failure?

Otherwise, let's wait and see, as the team's main central defender, Diego's professionalism is still worth believing.

......

Just when Camais was hesitating, the game was already restarted.

Lu Feng found that as long as he took the ball and passed the ball a little slower, Diego would immediately lean in and pester himself.

After being knocked to the ground by Diego, Lu Feng did not get up immediately, but sat on the ground and spread his hands to the referee, very helpless. That means - referee, you see, he's already eyeing me.

Seeing this, the referee immediately blew a foul, but only a foul was blown, and there was no other follow-up action.

Such a move naturally made the Leeds United players dissatisfied.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Diego is targeting Lu Feng, which can be regarded as a malicious foul, how can he not play cards for such behavior.

So, Hernandez, who was closest to Lu Feng, ran to Zhu Pengcheng and made a card gesture to the referee, reminding the referee to play his cards.

But in fact, when a player already has a yellow card on him, the referee will be relatively cautious. Generally, it is difficult to give cards to a foul that pushes and pulls.

What's more, this game is an extremely important FA Cup semi-final, and in such an important game, generally speaking, no referee will easily make a decision to send off a player, unless the foul of that player is too bad.

After all, in such a game, the referee's every move is under the watchful eye of many pairs of eyes, and all penalties need to be made carefully.

But this does not mean that the referee will endure it all the time, if the foul player does not have any intention of restraint and continues to provoke, sooner or later he will be punished.

Hernandez and Lu Feng's actions are both putting pressure on the referee in the hope of speeding up the process.

Camais, who was on the field, saw this scene and took a cool breath.

Fortunately, Diego's foul was committed far from the goal, and the position was far enough to directly threaten the Wolves goal.

A free kick in this position, no one can score unless it's God,

But that doesn't mean that every foul that follows, Wolves can have such good luck.

Diego had already given Leeds two free-kicks for a foul, but he didn't seem to have learned any lessons from them, and went his own way and went with the Land Breeze on the bar.

If this is a full-scale scramble and interception, Camais is naturally happy to see it, and in fact this is also his inner expectation.

But it's a pity that Diego is just constantly colliding with Lu Feng, as if he is preparing to knock his opponent down, rather than defeating him with skill.

This is not what Camais wants.

Camaise knew that Diego had now lost his mind, and that if such a person was allowed to be on his own lineback, it would be a ticking time bomb that would explode at any time.

No, it has to be defused before the bomb explodes!

Thinking of this, Camais sighed and said to the assistant coach. "Let's make a substitution, replace Diego, his condition is no longer suitable to continue the game!"

From the decision to make a substitution to the successful substitution, it only took three minutes, and the Wolves' action can be said to be very fast.

Don't dare not be fast, Camais is afraid of delaying a few more minutes, Diego gives Lu Feng another free kick opportunity with a good distance, and it will be completely doomed - it is not impossible to fall behind by two goals now, but if it is three goals behind in the first half, the team's morale may collapse.

So in the 33rd minute, Wolves made their first substitution of the game - Cameos replaced Diego with a substitute centre-back.

When the fourth official held up a substitution sign on the sidelines, everyone in it, including the commentator, was surprised.

"Wolves have made a substitution! Thirty-three minutes into the first half, there were substitutions! In the absence of injuries, it is very rare to make such an early substitution. ”

The Wolves fans in the stands at Wembley Stadium also looked at each other - they knew that Diego's performance was not good, but they also did not expect manager Camais to be so decisive and make changes so early.

I don't know whether to praise Camais for decisively stopping the loss, or criticize Camaise for not trusting his players enough, or criticize Diego's poor form today.

On the other side, Klopp, who noticed the substitution of Wolves manager Camais, couldn't help but pout at his assistant Bouákco.

"It's a pity, the opponent replaced Diego so early, and it is estimated that Lu Feng will not be given a free kick opportunity later. If only Diego stayed on the pitch for a while, Lu Feng was in good form today, and maybe he could really complete a hat-trick with a free kick. ”

"Let's go down... Although there is a chance to continue scoring, what if the other party is completely annoyed and angry, and he is really desperate to hurt Lu Feng? Now that there are two goals anyway, I think Lu Feng's performance is too good to be better. Boisko replied with a smile.

"Yes!" Klopp nodded. "This kind of can also protect Lu Feng, and it is not surprising that players who are emotionally out of control can do anything.

I really didn't expect that the dignified Wolves' main central defender was actually turned into this by Lu Feng. ”

"It's still because of the war of words before the land breeze game." Boisko thought for a moment and said.

"yes." Klopp smiled in satisfaction. "Lu Feng's ability to fight with his mouth is on par with his ball skills. And the way he complained to the referee was also very smart.

This is a promising young man! ”

"Hmm!" Boisko nodded, but did not speak.

The score was ahead on the field, and both of them were very relaxed.

......

Diego himself seemed surprised to be substituted so early and was very unhappy.

He was stunned for a moment, and then walked down slowly, the expression on his face quite ugly.

In front of everyone's eyes, he is not unclear about what the manager's substitution decision means.

This is in front of so many people, telling them that they have become a complete loser, they lost to Lu Feng, they were completely defeated by him, and they can no longer continue the game, so they have to be replaced in advance.

This is a public execution for any player.

Few people can face it calmly.

Camais was well aware of this, but he had no choice.

If you still think about whether the players can withstand the blow at this time, then if the team loses, I am afraid that no one will speak for him as a manager.

We're all adults and professionals, so we naturally have to bear this kind of pressure.

Otherwise, don't mess around in this business.

This can't be blamed on him, in the final analysis, it is Diego's own performance that is not impressive, otherwise, as a manager, how could he easily replace the team's main central defender.

No matter how reluctant Diego was, he eventually walked off the pitch and was replaced by his own team-mates.

Then he didn't shake hands with Camaise, he didn't even sit back on the bench, he walked straight back to the dressing room.

He was using this way to express his dissatisfaction with this substitution adjustment - he originally wanted to continue to fight Lu Feng on the court, but he didn't give up himself, but he didn't expect his coach to surrender in advance, so he was characterized as a loser!

This made Diego particularly angry.

But apparently, others don't see it that way.

With Diego's departure, the British commentator commented on the Wolves substitution.

"With Diego gone, I'm sure the Wolves fans are relieved.

At the beginning of the game, Wolves fans applauded and cheered him as he continued to engage in physical confrontation with Lu Feng. It was only as the game progressed that Diego's courage could only bring panic to Wolves fans.

If Diego and Lu Feng continue to fight against each other, Lu Feng will have to complete a hat-trick with a free kick.

Instead of complaining about the manager replacing him early, Diego should go to the dressing room to calm down and think about why Lu Feng was able to score two goals on his own.

The bold words he said before the game, but when it came to the game, he actually behaved like this, right for his teammates and fans?

On the other hand, Lu Feng said before the game that he wanted to score, and the goal was completed in this game, or two. This is the kind of player that the manager and the fans like.

A player who only talks about it to the media is unlikely to be appreciated by the manager. ”

After Diego went off the field, the game finally got a little more normal.

Wolves defended solidly and began to attack in an attempt to pull a goal back before the end of the first half.

Going into halftime with a one-goal deficit versus going into halftime with a two-goal deficit is a completely different feeling for the underdogs. Conceding just one goal is also tactically much more and the mentality of the players is not broken.

That's it for normal play.

But unfortunately this game is not a normal game.

Not only because this is an important semi-final, but more importantly, there is also a pre-match war of words between Land Breeze and Wolves players. This makes the players of both sides even more important to the significance of this game, which has gone beyond an ordinary semi-final.

......

In the 40th minute, when Leeds United switched from defense to attack, Lu Feng did not stay in front, but retreated to near the arc of the center circle, and he went back to meet his teammates.

When a team-mate passed the ball to him from the wing, he made a feint when he received the ball, making the Wolves defender think he was going to break through from his right.

But when the ball really rolled over, Lu Feng didn't touch the ball, allowing the ball to pass in front of him and roll to his right foot.

Only then did Lu Feng adjust his center of gravity and turn to the other side, intending to break through from the opponent's left.

The Wolves defender certainly knows what the consequences will be if Lu Feng breaks through him, but it's almost impossible to break the ball now.

If you want to stop the land breeze, there is only a foul.

And if you want to foul, you have to take advantage of it! Otherwise, it's too late!

Because it is still far from the penalty area, even if it is judged to be a foul and gives Leeds a free kick, it is still difficult to threaten his own goal.

Previously, because of Diego's two fouls, Leeds United scored points with two free kicks, resulting in the current Wolves players are a little noisy, and they have to weigh whether they will create a chance for Leeds United to score when they foul.

Fortunately, this time it was far from the goal, so the Wolves defender no longer hesitated and reached out to pull Lu Feng.

Lu Feng didn't drag the other party to move on, and when the other party grabbed his clothes, he spread out his hands and stopped breaking through.

The referee's whistle sounded at this time.

This is a very obvious tactical foul, and the foul action does not have to be very violent, as long as it can stop an attack. There is no controversy or suspense about this kind of foul, and cards are generally not given unless the action is particularly large.

So neither the fouled Wolves player nor the fouled Lu Feng had any dispute about the foul, and neither of the players on either side had an argument.

Leeds United were awarded a free-kick in front.
