On 3 February, 22 days after Wang Li's injury, he finally returned to Wolverhampton.

For Wang Li to return to the club so early, Tina originally disagreed.

The doctor said that his injury would take a month to heal, and Tina was worried that his health would be affected by his injury again. In order to reassure his mother, Wang Li also had to ask Tina to do a comprehensive examination of his feet, and only after she was sure that there was no problem did Wang Li get the 'pass'.

These days, the club's teammates are somewhat depressed and train very seriously, especially the young players. Wolverhampton have won four in a row in the league, which has earned Dave even the Coach of the Month award for January, and the media have touted Wolverhampton for their ability to qualify for the UEFA Cup. But the next day, they lost 0:3 to Fulham, which made Dave very embarrassed and gave the players a head start.

Next up is Wolverhampton's bitter brother --- Portsmouth, who are also promoted to the Premier League for the first time, and a few league games ago, the two teams were first from the bottom and the other from the bottom, which is quite a bit of a pity.

Wolverhampton have won 12 points in a month through four consecutive league wins, rising to 13th in the league standings, while Portsmouth has tragically fallen to the bottom of the table, and the club is very confident in the face of such a player. Wang Li's injury recovery gave Dave a tactical addition, but considering his recovery from injury and the subsequent games against Manchester United and Arsenal, Dave still decided not to start him.

Wang Li is only slightly disappointed with this decision, Portsmouth is followed by Manchester United, Manchester United is followed by Arsenal, he is very much looking forward to these two games, and this kind of giant, quasi-giant team can make more fans know him, and can provoke him to fight**, as for Portsmouth? At his current level, this kind of second-rate team is indeed a bit unsightly.

The media didn't pay much attention to the match between the two promoted teams, because there was one biggest focus in this round: Chelsea vs Arsenal.

********************

Finally, on February 7th, Molineux Stadium ushered in this battle, as a promoted horse, like Wolverhampton, Portsmouth did not have any big stars, which made the announcer in the broadcast studio, Tonison. Haasinker had no interest in introducing him.

"Next up is Alan. King? Our dancing prince has recovered from his injury? That's great! The applause from the audience reached its peak when the commentator introduced Wang Li's name, and in Wolverhampton, Wang Li has undoubtedly become one of the fans' favourite players.

Portsmouth coach Redknapp is definitely an old and cunning figure, he knows that Wolverhampton's recent results are very good, and he will definitely take the initiative to attack at his home stadium, so he discharged a 5311 defensive counterattack formation, with Smelting, who is very fast with the ball, as the front midfielder, and only sent a Sheringham to the front of the team, so that on the back line, there will basically be more than 7 players involved in the defense, he just wants to keep the draw and win.

This style of play is very embarrassing, and generally only when the strength of the two teams is very different, this formation will be discharged, and Redknapp is sure that Wolverhampton must attack with all their might, and there will be holes in the back, so that Portsmouth will have a lot of counter-attacking opportunities.

********************

Wang Li sat on the bench and watched the game seriously.

His teammates on the field were almost surrounded by Portsmouth's half, and the ball kept passing around in Portsmouth's half, and the opponent was almost powerless to fight back, but he frowned.

"This game is not easy to play." Wang Li heard the chatter from Dave's mouth next to him, and nodded in agreement, so there will only be two results if he continues to play: Wolverhampton will score first, and the game will be no suspense; It was attacked by Portsmouth and the form was reversed instantly, but Portsmouth's defense was extremely tight, and it was not easy for Wolverhampton to score.

As Wang expected, Wolverhampton's players were in big trouble. Throughout the first half, they had a staggering 77 per cent possession, but they didn't have a few shots on goal, the ball couldn't get into the box at all, it was kicked out by a big kick, and even allowed Portsmouth to play two quick counter-attacks and almost score a goal.

Although at halftime, Dave told the players to be steady and not too impatient, but on the field, reason can never bury the players' desire to win, Kamara, Butler, Cameron seemed to be determined to score, all stood near the Portsmouth penalty area, which did make Portsmouth's goal in danger, but also left Wolverhampton's defense a huge hole.

"It's dangerous..."Wang Li saw clearly from the bench, Smeltding near the center line was almost unguarded, and only the two veterans of Nairol and Erwin were kept in the rear. He turned his head to look at Dave suspiciously, in the face of this situation, Dave should have reminded him, but why did he still sit here steadily?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Portsmouth to score!

On the left side of the penalty area, Cameron's long-range shot was easily picked up by goalkeeper Hislop, and drove to the front with a big foot, Smerding got the ball, passed Nayler's defense, and stabbed the ball to striker Sheringham, in the face of the two veterans of Nailol and Erwin, Sheringham performed a gorgeous individual performance, in the rapid dribbling, he flashed Elwin in a large angle disguise, and then took the ball towards the left corner of the goal, and in Nairol's continuous pressing, he hung the ball into the upper right corner of the goal!

This goal made the fans in the audience silent, they didn't expect that Portsmouth, who was suppressed all over the field, scored first! At this time, the cheers of hundreds of Portsmouth fans in the north-west corner even drowned out the entire Molineux stadium, and the Wolverhampton fans who reacted after the reaction certainly did not let them be arrogant in their own turf, and the neat "boo" immediately filled the stadium.

Wolverhampton's morale was somewhat low, and they were attacking the whole game, but a light counter-attack made it a little ironic.

"Looks like my chance has come." Wang Li knew that at Molineux Stadium, Dave could not let Portsmouth win, and sure enough, while the Portsmouth players were still celebrating their goals, Dave let him warm up.

********************

"I have to say, Sheringham scored a very beautiful goal, against two veterans, he...???" Speaking of which, as soon as the camera turned, the commentator suddenly changed the topic and said: "Look at the sidelines!" It's Allen, he's warming up? Could it be that Dave is ready to play him and his foot injury is completely healed? The fourth official held up the sign, and he really got on the field!! Allen replaced Kamara and it seems that Dave let him score!! ”

The fans looked at the familiar brunette teenager standing on the sidelines and finally got excited, this teenager always brings them victory!

"Alan, come on!"

"Alan, get a few of them in and let them know how awesome!"

"Alan, teach this group of Pompey fools a lesson!"

"Alan, you're the best!"

……

Seeing the black-haired kid who was about to play, Redknapp frowned deeply, originally he thought that this kid would not play, so he didn't arrange any tactics for him at all, but he didn't expect Dave to leave such an important hole card!

"Then let's see if this kid's strength is as good as his fame!"
