It's another weekend in the blink of an eye, and Sunderland have also ushered in the second home game of the new season, against Swansea City who drew with the "Reds" Liverpool at Anfield Stadium in the first round of the league. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Sunderland's match against Swansea is the last game of the league round, so according to the current standings, Sunderland can enter the Europa League qualification zone if they can win the opponent and get three points; At the press conference before the game, the media also asked Nan Xiao if he was confident of winning this game, and the answer given by Nan Xiao was still very low-key.

'I'm more concerned about whether the players can play what I want to see on the pitch, and winning this game will only give us three league points, but the latter good game content will probably bring us more valuable things in the future.

Sunderland, who continue to play at home in this game, made only one change in their starting line-up compared to the previous game, that is, replacing Rodwell, who contributed excellent passes and shots in the last round of the league with Elviti.

After the start of the game, the Sunderland team still adopted the same tactics as in the previous game, bombing the Swansea goal non-stop, but the Swansea team was obviously prepared for this situation, they recovered all the lines, did not give the opponent the opportunity to play the ball behind, and most of the Sunderland team's crosses were also defused by Swansea's two tall central defenders, and Defoe in the center forward position could not take advantage of it at all; Rodwell's absence also caused Sunderland's long-range shots from outside the box to drop a significant margin, either blocked by defenders or flying into the second floor of the stands, with only one shot in goal being unthreatening.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind.

The Sunderland team could not attack for a long time, the whole team gradually began to be a little impetuous, the game went to the 35th minute, and finally suffered an unexpected blow, the team's No. 10 core, the 25-year-old Argentine Dokal fell to the ground in pain in a scramble with the opponent, Sunderland's team doctor entered the treatment for the first time under the referee's gesture, after a preliminary examination, Brand made a substitution gesture to Nan Xiao, from his expression Dokal's injury seems not optimistic.

Before the end of the first half, Nan Xiao was about to face a forced substitution, and he ordered Rodwell, Carlos, Cattermole, and Murphy on the bench to warm up on the sidelines, while he was anxiously thinking in the command area.

More than 30 minutes of sustained attacking made the players' fitness a little too much to hold, and Clement was sure to let his team launch a strong offensive before the end of the first half......

Sunderland were only able to play with 10 men after Dokar's injury, and the Sunderland players' fitness was a bit lacking, the situation on the pitch gradually began to change, and Swansea's line gradually began to press forward and began to improve in attack.

In the 39th minute of the game, the Sunderland team made personnel changes, and Murphy came off the bench to replace Dokar, who could not continue to hold on.

"Murphy came off the bench and the rhythm was obviously not on the same frequency as the other players on the field, now he was facing the opponent's fast Mar Montero, bursting through, Montero split the ball and brought the ball to the baseline, Van Aanholt came to defend, Montero slowed down, dunked the opposing defender with his right foot, crossed with his left foot, and there were three points in the box...... The goal is in! Llorente! Spain international Llorente! At 1.93m tall, he pushed Colo Toure into the bottom left corner of the goal near the penalty spot, Mannone didn't react to the goal, it was too close! Zhan Jun's voice sounded blood-pumping.

Nan Xiao shook his head helplessly in the face of the situation on the field, he sat back in the coach's seat, and watched the opposing coaches and players celebrate passionately on the sidelines with his eyes distracted.

The score of the first half was fixed at 1-0, with Sunderland trailing Swansea by one goal at home; After returning to the locker room, Nan Xiao learned about Dokar's condition from Brand, who had a broken phalange and needed a long period of recuperation.

The midfielder's reprimand was handed over to Bracewell to deal with, and he pondered the second half of the game outside the locker room.

"Sunderland made another personnel change at the start of the second half, replacing the team's midfield playmaker Elviti with Rodwell, and I wonder if Nan Xiao wants to strengthen the team's long-range shooting."

Sunderland slowed down noticeably at the start of the second half, but they still kept possession firmly in their hands; Halilovic also started to drop back more, and with Elviti's departure and Dokar's injury, Sunderland was left with only one playmaker.

Rodwell didn't get too many long-range opportunities after coming on the field, and Halilovich's retreat to get the ball also squeezed his space a little, and Sunderland now had a firm advantage in possession, but there were no threatening attacking opportunities, and the game came to 80 minutes with Sunderland's players passing again and again.

With less than 15 minutes to go until the end of the game, Nan Xiao had no choice but to make a desperate bet, and after Swansea City used up two substitutions in quick succession, he finally played the last card in his hand.

"Halilovic came off and replaced Koné, and this substitution for Sunderland was a bit incomprehensible, and when the score was down, Nan Xiao replaced the team's attacking midfielder with a central defender."

"Zhan instructed you to see that Koné didn't return to his own half after coming on the field, but stood in the opponent's half? At the same time, you can see that in the minute after the substitution, Sunderland seems to have changed into a 442 formation, with Koné and Defoe forming a double striker, and Van Aanholt's position seems to have been reversed with Murphy, appearing in the left midfield position. ”

"Yes, it seems that Nan Xiao wants to use the last time to let Van Aanholt and Larsson play more balls in the box on the two wings, and use Defoe's judgment of the landing point and Koné's height to launch a final onslaught on the goal guarded by Fabianski, I have to say that the Sunderland coach really has a big heart."

Sunderland began to cross frantically as Zhan Jun had said after the substitution, and at the same time used the protection of Rodwell and Jedinak to pose a frequent threat to the Swansea goal.

There is an old Chinese saying that "the emperor pays off", and finally in the first minute of injury time, Sunderland equalized, and it was the Ivorian Koné who played as a striker who made contributions to Sunderland!

After Koné's goal, a tsunami of celebration erupted in the Stadium of Light, and Nan Xiao, who was standing on the sidelines, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Three minutes of regular stoppage time was over and the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and in the end Sunderland drew with Koné's stoppage time winner against Swan Heswansea, with both sides taking a point at the Stadium of Light, while Sunderland also failed to make it to the Europa League and are currently ninth in the table with five league points, while Swansea have picked up their third draw of the new season and are temporarily tied with Watford for 13th."

When Nan Xiao recalled this game again much later, he always felt a little frightened, he will never forget his extreme loss at halftime, he does not know what direction his future career will develop if the team does not equalize the score at the last minute; But after this game, he finally figured out a truth, in the extremely fierce league of the Premier League, always maintaining a stable mentality is the most important thing, because only in this way can he keep a cool head to analyze the situation in front of him, so as to make the most correct judgment.

The competition is like this, and life is also like this, I am not afraid that you will have unsatisfactory times, but the most afraid is that you will not be able to cheer up when you are unsatisfactory, and your will be depressed, so as to enter a vicious circle; So at this time, it is very important to have a positive attitude, because with a positive attitude, even in the face of great setbacks and difficulties, we can face them calmly, because we know that after the wind and rain, there will be a rainbow!
