It's only the third round of the league, but there's a bit more attention because of the Blackburn Rovers and Burnley matches.

Blackburn Rovers police were on standby this time, with more than 15,000 Burnley fans coming to Haywood Park. But Heywood Park was only offering 6,000 tickets to Burnley fans this time, with nearly 10,000 fans without tickets.

But instead of returning to Burnley, these Burnley fans continued to be stranded in front of Deepwood Park.

And the BBC also chose this game as the live broadcast of this round of the League Cup.

With a capacity of more than 31,000 people, Heywood Park was completely full today. Blackburn Rovers fans in the stands saw the Burnley players run out, and suddenly there was a boo all over Haywood Park. And the police, who maintain order among the Blackburn fans and Burnley fans, have increased their attention a hundredfold. I'm afraid that the fans of the two teams will fight.

From the reaction of the fans, it can be seen that this is definitely not an ordinary League Cup, but a life-and-death knockout match, and it is a derby between two companies with a century-old grudge.

George walked out of the aisle, and the boos at Heywood Field, which had just emerged, suddenly increased several times over. The Blackburn fans, who were very close to George, were cursing at George with a hideous face. George knew that some of his statements were completely offending these Blackburn fans.

George let out a long sigh of relief and kept a smile on his face, ignoring the boos of these fans at all. Instead, he shook his hand at the blue square, mixed with red. It was the visiting fans who came to Heywood Park today, and seeing George's movements, the Burnley fans suddenly erupted in huge cheers.

Premier League champions, that's just shit luck for you...... George snorted inwardly and walked to the dugout.

George was the main force in this game, and Blackburn was not ready to give up this game. Blackburn captain Colin Hendry, Tim Sherwood and Kevin Gallaher are all on the squad for the game.

Of course, George was slightly relieved that Shearer didn't play, and even the substitute list didn't have Shearer's name. This made George breathe a sigh of relief, and now Shearer is a terrifying shooting machine, and Burnley's backline will definitely not be able to stop Shearer.

'Mr Kilby, Burnley have been doing really well this year. I'm sure you'll be in League One next season. Although the two rivals have been entangled for a hundred years, Jack Walker has maintained his demeanor.

Facing Jack Walker, Kilby bowed slightly. For Walker, Kilby is envy and jealousy. Walker is not only a steel tycoon worth more than £300 million, but also won the Premier League title in just five years after taking charge of Blackburn.

Compared to Walker, Kilby is now in the slightest contrast in terms of assets and other aspects of influence.

"Mr. Walker, you have just won the Premier League." Kirby was very humble.

Jack Walker smiled and shook hands, then invited Barry Kilby to sit down and watch the game.

'Twenty minutes go on and we can already see what both sides are thinking. Blackburn Rovers went all out, while Burnley opted for a dead end. Richard Brody, the league's main centre-forward, was not named for the match at all, replacing Richard with a defensive midfielder, Ian Coyd. "The BBC commentator is doing a summary of the last names of the stage." Burnley, with the exception of Hakoby near midfield, all of the players defended in their own 30-metre zone. Kevin Gallacher has been submerged in Burnley's tall defenders, with Blackburn's four shots so far all of them being long-range without any threat. Burnley, on the other hand, didn't have a single shot on target. ”

"Yes, Burnley are known for their attacking power in League Two. I can understand Coach George's thoughts, though, because Blackburn were Premier League champions last season. Shafort chose the right side of his team's attack, as Burnley was flanked by 17-year-old Daniel Morrison on the left. However, although Daniel was a little embarrassed, with the help of Neil Lennon, he did not give Blackburn much of a chance. ”

It is true that although George despises Blackburn in his heart, he does not dare to ignore Blackburn's strength in the actual game. To be able to beat Manchester United to win the Premier League title, Blackburn's strength is definitely above Burnley. So George chose the strategy of first solidifying the defense and then waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

For the first twenty minutes, the game was in George's control. Ballack, Neil Lennon, Danny Murphy and Ian Coyd are a four-man midfield with a lot of defensive depth.

George's defensive strategy was very simple, with all players concentrated in the 30-metre area in front of goal, except for Huckby who was up front and pinned down some Blackburn defenders. Defending is not just the job of the midfielders and defenders, it requires the dedication of all players.

With such a strategy, it can be said that Blackburn did not even have the slightest chance. There were four shots on goal in 20 minutes, but all of them were from the periphery.

Blackburn are attacking fiercely now, but George doesn't have much to worry about. There is a cloud in the art of war: one blow and then three declines and exhaustion. George believed that as long as he withstood the current attack of Blackburn, Blackburn would be discouraged. Then it's Burnley's chance.

Daniel Morrison felt tired, tired. More than half of Blackburn's attacks were from the right, and it wasn't just Blackburn's right midfielders and right-backs who took turns attacking from the right. Even Tim Sherwood is on this side.

Daniel has always been known for his physical strength at Burnley, but in the face of Blackburn's attack, although it was only 20 minutes, Daniel's physical strength has reached a critical point.

Daniel is a native of Burnley and was promoted by George from the youth team. Without George's toughness, Daniel wouldn't have made it to the first team. The second division team has always had limited attacking power, and with the help of Neil Rennon, Daniel has not been a big threat.

But it was a bit of a mess for Daniel, with Berg and Stuart Ripley both key players in last year's Premier League title. Thanks to the help of Neil Lennon and Ian Coyd, Daniel's side did not collapse.

But Daniel remembers what George said, as long as he resists, it is a victory.

It was too tired, but Daniel was staring at the ball tightly.

There was hardly any decent counter-attack from Burnley's side, and the ball was tackled by Blackburn Rovers after not being able to pass it three times. This time was no exception, as Danny Murphy's pass didn't reach Huckby's feet and was tackled by Hendry.

Huntley passed to Sherwood, who saw Neil Lennon watching him and passed to Stuart Ripley on the right. Daniel was about to step up when Blackburn's right-back Berg cut in quickly. Ripley's pass was immediately on to Berg and once it was past they were able to open up a gap on Burnley's left.

But the moment Ripley passed the ball, Daniel was quick and intercepted the ball in one fell swoop.

Daniel remembered what George had said before the game. "Blackburn Rovers will definitely attack your side in this game, you have to hold on, and to hold on is to win. But once you've made a steal, if they're out of the nest, don't hesitate to go straight into the hinterland. Play to your speed advantage. ”

Daniel saw all but two centre-backs near the centre circle in Blackburn's own half. In particular, the whole Blackburn right was completely empty, so he took the ball forward and started running.

Daniel was fast, like a gust of wind.

Daniel hasn't raced like this for a long time, and after breaking into the first team, George's demand for Daniel has always been defensive. As a result, Daniel has hardly been involved in attacking in the second division, with Burnley's attack always centred on the flank of Poborski on the right.

The moment Daniel counter-attacked, Blackburn's players simply didn't come to their senses. It was Berg who reacted immediately as a defender, but in less than a second, Daniel had already fallen six meters behind Berg, and Berg gave up after a little chase.

The rest of the Burnley players were immediately on the counter-attack. Hakbi pressed down front, Poboski attacked from the right, Ballack followed Hakby.

Hendry looked at the fast Daniel and the empty defence on the right and knew that it was impossible for him to defend the middle. So he pounced forward, and Daniel didn't get tangled with Hendry and passed to Ballack.

Ballack flicked the ball past Hendry and into the feet of Daniel, who was quick to get in. This time there was a blank space in front of Daniel.

Blackburn's other young centre-back, Pierce, has dropped Huckby to defend Daniel. Huckby's side was completely empty, and Huckby and Poboski were unguarded, and Blackburn formed a three-on-one situation in front of goal.

Flores saw Huckby and Pobosky, so he paid attention to the far corner. But as soon as he entered the vicinity of the penalty area, Daniel shot directly into the goal, and the ball was very fast, and it quickly entered the goal against the right post. Although Flores tried his best to save, it was far faster than Flores had imagined.
