Balotelli's second goal came a little earlier than he had imagined.

Maybe that's the character of Bashen, once he gets it right, nothing can stop him – just like against Germany in 2012.

In the 82nd minute, two York City players completed another cooperation on the left side, Di Marco stepped forward and passed straight to Tonali in the middle, Tonali looked up to observe the situation in the penalty area, and resolutely crossed with his feet!

The beautiful curling ball flew into the box again, and Stones jumped to top the ball out, only to find that the ball flew much higher than he thought, and the ball went straight over his head.

The ball began to fall rapidly, and Balot, who had already been inserted into the box, used his chest to unload the ball.

Smalling was already on the ground behind him, but Balotelli was undisturbed by his movements, and when the ball landed at about his knee, he immediately got up and volleyed with his right foot!

Faced with a close-range shot from less than ten metres away, Pickford only waved his hand symbolically and the ball flew into the net!

Four to two! Italy extends its lead!

"Well done! Mario! Pan Yi shouted at the arena with a wave of fists, but his shouts were drowned out in a tidal wave of cheers.

And this time, Balotelli didn't stand there and pretend to be deep, he directly broke free from his teammates who pounced, rushed all the way to the court, and then jumped up and hugged Pan Yi!

Balotelli, who sometimes seems brainless, is actually a straight person, and straight people have never had too many ideas.

So now that he has scored a goal and scored two, of course, I have to thank Pan Yi who trusted him, called him into the national team and let him play!

This time, he still hugged very tightly!

"Ouch, okay, Mario, don't hug me anymore, or you're going to break my ribs......" Pan Yi groaned and said, which made Balotelli let go of his hand.

It can be seen that Ba Shen is really happy, and it can be seen from the strength of this hug!

Pan Yi couldn't say anything about him, so he could only pat Balotelli on the back, and then slapped the kid on the court.

"Remember what happened in the second half of the first half and don't make the same mistakes!" Pan Yi still admonished his players, and then sat back.

Although they are now two goals ahead, England at Wembley will certainly not accept defeat and they will definitely be on the back burner.

At this time, if the Italian players are too proud and relaxed, there is a possibility that there will be some low-level mistakes and then scored.

At a high level, you just can't afford to let up anything, and it's not uncommon to score a few goals in a few minutes.

Sure enough, after conceding consecutive goals, Southgate immediately opted for a substitution.

He replaced Raheem Sterling with Chelsea centre-forward Tammy Abraham and Marcus Rashford for wing-back Ashley Young in a clear way of attacking.

"Bastoni, you're in charge of keeping an eye on Abraham and Leonardo Bonucci is in charge of filling in. And Desiglio, don't press so much on your side, watch their Rashford! Pan Yi stood up and simply shouted at the venue.

Bastoni was immediately labelled with Tammy Abraham, while Desiglio was clearly more attentive to defending on the flanks.

After the resumption of the game, England launched a fierce attack, and although their attack was more concentrated in the middle, it still put a lot of pressure on the Italian defence.

In the 85th minute, Rice made a direct pass from the midfield, Harry Kane was tackled by Di Marco in advance, and the ball flew out of the bottom line, a corner kick.

Jesse Lingard took a corner, but Harry Kane, who was not very tall, grabbed the first drop in the Italian penalty area and shook his head at goal, Donnarumma made a brilliant save to block Harry Kane's close-range header!

Obviously, Pan Yi did not criticize him harshly at half-time, which greatly encouraged the young goalkeeper.

In fact, from the start of the second half until now, he has been playing steadily, and his control of the ball in the air has made England's high ball seem to have little effect.

"Flutter beautifully...... In the second half, the Italian players began to show their true strength! It seems that Pan Yi did a lot of things at halftime. Lineker said with a smile.

Of course, he would never have thought that Pan Yi started with scolding at halftime, after all, he is not a coach who likes to scold.

What's more, in Pan Yi's career, there are not many times when he can play the game to the point where he needs to curse......

With such a performance, it will be extremely difficult for England to score two or even three goals in a row in the remaining minutes to turn the game into victory.

After all, England has one less man to fight now!

Southgate knew that, but he wanted to try harder.

He quickly used up his last substitution as well, bringing on Tottenham rookie Alli for Rice, which was also a change to strengthen the attack.

And Pan Yi also made two substitutions in a row, Raspadori and Shaarawy came on the field, replacing two wingers Chiesa Jr. and Insigne.

This is actually nothing special, it is equivalent to replacing all the forwards who started at the beginning, and using players with better physical fitness to maintain the pressing force in the front court.

It's just that this substitution still aroused the admiration of many spectators, such as:

"Pan Yi must be trying to use Shaarawy's own speed and sudden change of step to dodge the opponent's pressing to improve the efficiency of the counterattack."

'Raspadori is good at handling the longitudinal passes of the players behind him, and he can also attack the opposition defence with high-speed dribbling, which is obviously the rhythm of preparing for the Italian counter-attack.

There is no way to do this, no matter what Pan Yi does now, some people will always think that it is a wise move, a decisive move, and a stroke of genius...... Something like that.

Who made him so strong?

Fame also plays a big role!

But one thing is right, that is, Pan Yi is not ready to attack again, but to practice defense.

Now Italy's tactics are to recycle the defense, the two defensive giants at the front of the penalty area are desperately running to disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm, and when they get the ball in the backfield, they will immediately have a big foot, so that the front court will fight for it.

One less opponent can also make Italy less stubborn, but start sweeping in the midfield, sending through balls and long balls when they have the chance, playing behind the England backline with only two or three defenders left......

This tactic didn't work very well, but it was very uncomfortable for England when leading by two goals.

And because Southgate still did not give up hope of an equaliser, the pace of the game between the two sides not only did not slow down because the game was near the end, but began to play faster.

After withstanding a barrage of onslaught, Italy launched a counterattack.

The combination of their frontcourt has all changed, and even the two of them have never played together, which is equivalent to a temporary patchwork.

This made it difficult for Italy to play the kind of short pass playmaking in the first half, but the basic attacking framework was still there, which was two wide breaks or passes, with Balotelli receiving or shooting in the middle.

The same can be said for the two wing-backs, with Dimarco and Desiglio ready to cross after crossing the halfway line and then leaving Balotelli to fight the Smalling.

England, which had suppressed Italy for a period of time with a breath, was slowly suppressed by Italy in turn.

After all, they have one less man on the pitch, and after Loftus-Cheek came off, Southgate did not even add to the midfield position, but increased the number of attackers, which weakened their midfield a lot.

Then, in the last minute of stoppage time, that nerf showed its effect.

DiMarco forced his way down the left to create a corner, and the Italian players cheered and almost all of them rushed into the opposition box.

By this point in the game, the mentality of the Italian players had completely relaxed, and they would still win the game even if they were counter-attacked.

Pan Yi also acquiesced to everyone's behavior, after all, this did not have any impact on the result of the game.

England's players are basically all back on guard, and the penalty area is boiling like a pot of boiled dumplings.

Di Marco swung the ball at his feet several times before straightening up and looking at the situation in the box.

He frowned, the situation in the box was so chaotic that he couldn't see where his teammates were.

At this moment, Bonucci rushed to the front post from the middle to ask for the ball, and Di Marco immediately flew up and sent the ball into the box.

Bonucci jumped up in front of him, but Smalling's strong body stuck to him from behind, and Bonucci's jump was a little slower under Smalling's interference, but Smalling couldn't get off under his control, and the ball flew over the heads of both of them.

Originally, Dimache passed a front point, and his pass was characterized by a large arc and fast speed, and Bonucci and Smalling at the front point failed to reach the ball, and the ball immediately flew into the penalty area, and then the penalty area was immediately a big mess!

At the same time, at least four or five legs kicked the ball, and it was not known who was the first to hit the ball in the scuffle.

The ball flew towards goal and was blocked by Gary Cahill on his belly, and then the England captain was about to kick the ball wide of the ball as he was about to clear the ball, rolling back in the scuffle and being drowned in the crowd.

A second later, in the away stands behind the England goal, the Italian fans jumped up and cheered again!

Because the ball went in again!

The ball rolled into the goal, hit the net, and they saw it at first sight.

Then, everyone saw Bastoni rush out of the crowd and rush to the Italian dugout with his hands raised.

Looking at the slow motion again, it turned out that the ball didn't know when it rolled to the goal line, and Bastoni, who was waiting there, just went up and poked his toes, and then kicked the ball straight into the goal......

Although it was not a beautiful goal, it was Bastoni's first goal for the Italian national team!

Originally, as a centre-back, he didn't score many goals, even in a season at York City, he scored two or three.

In the national team, he is more of a defensive task, and when he is involved in attack, he mostly finds teammates through long passes, and has fewer opportunities to shoot.

Even he himself did not expect that he would score his first goal for the national team so easily today......

"Boss, I scored a goal!" Bastoni threw himself at Pan Yi with a tiger leap and shouted excitedly.

Poor Pan Yi was beaten like this by Balotelli before, and now he was beaten like this by Bastoni, Pan Yi felt that his bones were about to break with a click......

"Alright, alright, go back and continue the game, my old waist......"

"What is it better than? It's over! ”

Bastoni was right.

Just seconds after the referee blew the whistle, he blew the final whistle.

Three goals behind, it's a friendly again, and there is no need to make up even if there is still stoppage time.

So the final score was 2:5, and the Italian team won away!

"The Italian team played really well this time, and Pan Yi not only relied on his York City players, but also used the former national team players very well." Lineker praised.

In this game, Scamacca and Bastoni from York City scored one after the other, and Tonali and Barella were also very efficient in the midfield, and Di Marco's breakthrough and pass on the left side, as well as the corner kick from the penalty were very threatening, which can be said to have topped up half of the sky in Italy.

But in addition to that, Balotelli scored two goals and Insigne scored a brilliant lob and the performance was equally impressive.

Insigne is not enough, Pan Yi has always relied on him after joining the Italian national team;

Mainly Balotelli, in the first game after returning to the national team, he contributed two goals in just 20 minutes as a substitute, and it can be said that Pan Yi completely activated him.

This fully illustrates Pan Yi's good knowledge of people!

"Hmm...... I still hope that Pan Yi can coach England...... Alas, the FA is slow to start! Alan Shearer sighed.

He doesn't speak for Southgate now, after all, the game has already illustrated the huge gap between the two.

On the field now, Pan Yi first let a group of reporters rush up take a shot, and then walked to Southgate.

"It was a good game, but at the end of the first half, I didn't think I could beat you." Pan Yi shook Southgate's hand and said with a smile.

Southgate glanced at Pan Yi a little strangely, is this praising me or hurting me?

But Pan Yi's expression obviously didn't look like any hostility, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled.

How to say it, at least it was admitted by Pan Yi, at least his team did play well in the first half.

Then he said: "I'm glad you think that, hopefully at the World Cup when we meet and I won't make so many mistakes." ”

Pan Yi also laughed: "Okay, if we are in the same group again, then we will have a good competition at that time!" ”

After saying this, Pan Yi turned around and walked to the stands where Italian fans gathered.

His players are there now, too, and they're on the pitch.

Although it was only a friendly match today, this game played at a very high level, whether it was the players themselves or the fans, everyone was very satisfied and happy! ——

After the game, the media in Italy and England certainly commented on the match.

England was naturally a little frustrated, and the unbeaten golden body in the qualifiers was poked five holes in front of Italy, which also made them a little unable to raise their heads.

On the Italian media's side, in addition to praising the process and result of the game, there was more speculation about what happened at halftime.

Because according to a black Italian international who did not want to be named, they were scolded by Pan Yi at that time!

Many reporters are extremely interested in what happened in the locker room at halftime, after all, Pan Yi is not the kind of person who often swears.

He actually scolded people in such a friendly match, which is really eye-catching.

Of course, no one told reporters what exactly he scolded, not even the black international, which of course aroused the curiosity of countless people.

However, one thing is certain, that is, Pan Yi's remarks and adjustments at halftime directly changed the situation in the second half of Italy, and finally won the opponent by three goals.

Everyone is also very sure that letting Pan Yi serve as the head coach of the Italian national team is definitely the most correct decision made by the Italian Football Association over the years!

Just when everyone was praising Pan Yi, Pan Yi returned home shortly after the game.

That's the benefit of playing in London, it's not too far from Yorkshire.

is in such a hurry to go back, mainly because York City's next series of games is still very important.

After two Championship games against Nottingham Forest and Ipswich Town, they head into the Europa League quarter-finals against Ajax over two legs.

One on 6 April, then another on 13 April a week later, with a league game against Bristol City in between, followed by an FA Cup semi-final the following week.

If the Europa League quarter-finals are passed, the FA Cup semi-finals will be followed by the Europa League semi-finals......

Therefore, the schedule is dense and the opponent is strong, Pan Yi still has to go back to help Scaloni.

And when the Championship restarted, York City hosted Nottingham Forest, and Pan Yi appeared in the stands, he was greeted with the warmest cheers.

It's a hail to his own boss and a hail to an Italian national team manager.

Although the Italian coach led the team to defeat his own national team, England, as a fan of York City, he was even more happy for his own owner and his own players.

Okay, that's a bit unfair to the England international Rice in the team, but the minority obeys the majority, who makes the Italy international in York City more, let alone a Pan Yi!

Pan Yi frequently waved to the stands, and the enthusiastic cheers of the fans did not stop since he walked out, so that Pan Yi had to stand up many times to thank the fans in the middle of the game.

"It's a hassle to be liked by too many people, boss." Jason McGill on the side said to Pan Yi with a smile.

Pan Yi shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.

In fact, he enjoys this feeling very much, and the feeling of being sincerely loved by so many people is very cool.

People are all looking for fame and fortune, so what's next?

Then I'm afraid that what I pursue is the love of countless people!

Ancient emperors wanted to make a good name in history after having everything, and it was driven by this mentality.

When you don't have anything to eat, you naturally don't think about what will last forever, but when you do, most people think about more things.

Some people will use various means to increase their reputation, but Pan Yi does not.

As long as he leads his team well, naturally so many people like him and support him.

Being like this, what more can a husband ask for?

In this game, York City, which was sitting at home, finally defeated Nottingham Forest by two goals, and welcomed the return of Pan Yi and the international players with a victory.

Three days later, they made it back-to-back with a crisp 3-0 win over Ipswich Town on the road.

With Wolves also winning two, the gap between them and York City remains at 15 points, so with six league games remaining, York City cannot yet secure the Championship title.

However, York City have already entered the Premier League early!

After all, Cardiff City, who are in third place, are also six points away from Wolves, that is, 21 points behind York City.

The difference of 21 points in six rounds means that locking the top two is a foregone conclusion.

This result naturally made York City cheer, but because the lead along the way was huge, everyone also had this psychological expectation, so although this was the first time in York City's history to enter the Premier League, the scale of celebration was not very large.

And entering the Premier League early will of course have many benefits for York City.

That is, they can put more energy into the remaining two cups.

First of all, they are heading away to face the traditional giants of the Netherlands, Ajax, in the quarter-finals of the Europa League!
