The first of the triangles was Everton v Newcastle, with David Moyes' Toffees taking on Rodel's Magpies.

Because it was a 45-minute game, and both sides were very familiar with each other's style of play, it was a hand-to-hand combat with each other, led by the assistant coaches of both sides, and basically adopted the style of play and the main lineup used in the league. Everton, under the organization of Cahill, Van der Meyde and Phil Neville, launched a layered attacking mode, with forwards Beattie and Andy Johnson leaning on the Magpies defenders led by Bramble and Taylor to create a breakthrough for their second-line firepower, while the Newcastle midfield, composed of Duff, Parker, Emre, Bart and Milner, paid more attention to giving Martins and Owen a chance to defeat the enemy in front of them through accurate passing.

"The style of play of these two teams is very characteristic in the Premier League, to some extent your attacking characteristics are more like Newcastle, but if you can only improve the strength of the team to the level of the Magpies, then it can only be said that the Premier League has a strong contender for the League Cup, if you want to break through again, it is difficult, this season they brought back Rodell, and once again successfully retained two super strikers, it is said that they should be able to play better than last season, But I always think they still have a lot of shortcomings, maybe it's a kind of momentum, or a flaw in the surname. Standing side by side with Lao Liu to watch the game, it was Ranieri who handed over the team to the assistant coach.

"Coach, I haven't thanked you for convincing them to let me participate in this competition, to be honest, through this warm-up match can give me a more specific understanding of the atmosphere of the Premier League, but I still have a question, why do you want to have such a meeting, I have not figured it out, what can you get through this meeting?" Since it was an old acquaintance, Lao Liu didn't hide it, and directly asked the doubts in his heart.

Ranieri looked directly into Lao Liu's eyes, then turned around and said softly, "Please follow me." ”

Walking along the bluestone pavement on the lawn to one of the Manchester City club buildings, Ranieri motioned for the doorman to open the door, and after a few curfews, the two arrived at a conference room on the second floor, where several coach-looking people were chatting.

"This must be Willingham's coach Liu Lu, hello, I'm Moyes from Everton, it's a pleasure to meet you," a young and handsome middle-aged man got up enthusiastically and shook hands with Lao Liu, and introduced several other coaches to Lao Liu one by one: Rodell from Newcastle, Joel from Tottenham Hotspur and O'Neill from Aston Villa, although these people are not very familiar with Lao Liu, but they all have enough command art and their own style, These are familiar to fans as long as they are familiar.

Joel's coaching philosophy is that players should make the manager happy and not the other way around. Robbie #8226;Keane was left on the bench by Joel after being substituted and his clothes were dropped; Canute was unhappy with the competition for the job, and Joel sold him to Sevilla; Meadow has given headaches to many managers, but under Joel, he has become the darling of White Hart Lane. "I don't like moles and people with negative attitudes," Joel said. O'Neal, a native of Northern Ireland, was the head coach of Celtic in the Soviet Super League, but he quit his job to care for his seriously ill wife and has been at home ever since. After England's final defeat to McClaren in the '06 World Cup, the coach who was loved by England fans finally became the manager of Aston Villa. And Moyes and Rodell may be more familiar to fans from China due to the club.

"Liu, I'm sorry, we can't let you participate in the meeting between the owners of the five clubs, the content of the meeting is strictly confidential, including the part that we can only know that we need to know, but the meeting between the head coaches we all agree that you will come together, we like to get some new ideas from you, after all, our thinking has been bound to a certain extent." Ranieri explained.

'The Premier League needs change.' The young and vigorous Moyes unconsciously grabbed the right to speak, "Aside from the TV broadcast costs, referee bias, and schedule preparation, which need the boss's attention, I think there are a lot of things we need to discuss at the level of competition, the clubs here are more than 100 years old, and the history and past records are not much worse than the current four giants, but why is there such an obvious gap now, we have invested a lot in all aspects, and our players and our bosses need to see returns, But now it seems that competing for a League Cup without nutrition is our biggest goal every season, and it is difficult for us to keep some super players because of the temptation of not having a heavyweight trophy, what is the reason for that......"

"Okay, okay, dear Moyes, your words will always be so difficult to contain, or according to our original plan, everyone may be more concerned about the triangle race outside, and if we don't show up all the time, the media doesn't know what will be hyped, let's think about it again, and we will talk in detail in the evening, what do you say?" O'Neill's suggestion, which is obviously a lot more sophisticated, has been agreed by everyone.

Several people scattered out of the conference room, and the person who accompanied Lao Liu out was replaced by Moyes, "I'll see how your team is doing, Ranieri has a lot of bragging for you." ”……

In just ten minutes away, Everton's game against Newcastle has changed the score twice, first of all, right-back Hibbert assisted in the front, passed the ball to the outside of the penalty area, and the long-range Carsley fired with his right foot to break through the gate guarded by Given, but the Magpies showed no weakness, Martins made a difficult leap to the top to equalize the score.

'The next game is against Everton, and it looks like we're going to have to fight for midfield.' Leboeuf sighed. "Don't worry, I know that Moyes has one of his biggest weaknesses today, and he will definitely lose." Lao Liu said happily that Leboeuf was very strange about his sudden confidence.

Towards the end of the 45th minute, Duff's breakthrough allowed Jabbo to make a mistake and trip him in the box, and Duff himself converted the penalty to make it 2-1 and Newcastle won the first game of the triangle.

Lao Liu immediately announced the line-up, and instead of sending a double midfielder as Leboeuf suggested, he pushed Hleb to Held's side and put on a 4321 Christmas tree formation, echoing Moyes's 4231.
