Chapter 60: Shoot Dead

Neil Adams has considered the possibility of Bournemouth, which has no midfield organization, to use Rossi as the fulcrum of the front court to connect the team's attack.

Because Rossi played in the last league, it was as a fulcrum to connect the entire team's attack, leading a classic reversal in the Championship.

Therefore, when arranging tactics, he specially told the two central defenders to keep up with Rossi at all times and try to limit him from taking the ball.

Damn, it was put aside.

Jean Neil Adams did not expect that the Bournemouth team did have Rossi as the team, but the use of a strikerless formation was a big surprise.

Rossi dropped back in the center position, and central defender Russell also followed up when he defended.

However, Rossi retreated too far forward, approaching the top of the center circle, causing Russell to hesitate whether to follow or not.

At this time, Stanislas stepped forward, so that Russell had to abandon Rossi and participate in the defense.

In this way, Rossi is given plenty of room to take the ball.

The characteristic of the non-striker formation is that the center retreats to get the ball, and the frontcourt players actively step forward.

Not only did it not weaken the attack, but it was able to play a sharp counterattack.

Rossi's quick play found the weak spot in the opposition defence, caught Norwich off guard, and assisted Wilson to score.

Wilson found Rosie for the first time, rode on his back again, and said excitedly: "Luo, it's too good!" ”

Can eat cake so easily, what striker doesn't love it?

After the equaliser, Norwich no longer defended and had to attack.

And they believe that the goal of the Bournemouth team just now was thanks to the referee.

Graban was tackled in the penalty area, which was obviously a foul, but the referee did not blow it, but gave Bournemouth a chance to counterattack.

After 10 minutes of play, Norwich found their advantage in midfield slowly eroding.

The passing space was compressed, and every player did not have the time to play the ball in stride, as in the first half.

Head coach Neil Adams has a bad feeling that his side may lose their midfield advantage altogether, not only by losing possession.

"Keep an eye on the people who come in front of you and don't let them take the ball easily. Graban, keep an eye on number 32. ”

Neil Adams made an instant adjustment, in this strikeless formation, Rossi's drop-back organization is important, but the initiator of Bournemouth's attack is the midfielder O'Kane.

Due to the fierce scramble in midfield, with the current ability of the Bournemouth team, it is impossible to complete a lethal pass here.

Therefore, the midfielder is just mobilizing the opponent's defense and waiting for the opportunity to move.

As soon as he had the opportunity, O'Kane, who was in the midfield area, immediately passed the ball.

Doing so, while limiting Bournemouth's numerical advantage in midfield, would require Norwich to shrink their defence and lose the pace of their counter-attacks.

In the 75th minute, neither side threatened to shoot, and the strangulation in the midfield was fierce, and neither could find a chance.

Neil Adams made a substitution, with striker Zalo replacing Josh and midfielder Elliott replacing Johnson to play defensive counter-attacks.

Just two minutes after the substitution, Norwich had a miraculous effect.

Goalkeeper Rudy tossed the ball to Elliott, who advanced with the ball and passed it to Raymond on the wing.

Bournemouth's return was timely, but full-back Francis struggled to catch up with Raymond.

Elfik's help in defense formed a trap for Raymond.

The latter, in a tight space, passed the ball to Graban, who cut in forward.

Unfortunately, the ball was overplayed and disrupted by Cook's sliding tackle, and Norwich missed the opportunity.

It was an attempt that allowed Norwich to defend firmly on the counter-attack, and for the next five minutes, Bournemouth was in front of goal.

The fans also shouted in unison to cheer for the team.

Bournemouth only had one shot on target, so why should such attacking ability occupy the top spot in the table.

Norwich used their physical runs and drills to create counter-attacking opportunities, but unfortunately they were not close to the goal.

Bournemouth, on the other hand, had no attacking chances to threaten after scoring.

If you want to get the most out of the striker, you must have the absolute midfield control of the Spanish national team or Barcelona.

Bournemouth just took advantage of Rossi's numerical advantage after retreating and then passed to the front to strike a fatal blow.

A relatively single offensive mode that is easy to defend.

That's why after Bournemouth scored, there were no more good chances.

In the 80th minute, Stanislas's long-range shot from the left side of the penalty area was blocked by the central defender with his body, and the following full-back's header was passed to the defender Elliott.

This hasty and helpless shot also reflects that the Bournemouth team has no good chances in the offensive end.

At the moment of the full-back's header, Elliott was already in action and ready to counter-attack.

The ball didn't reach Elliott's feet.

It was a mistake in Norwich's transition and the two did not agree.

A figure rose high and broke the ball.

Elliott turned his head in surprise and saw the number 14 behind the man.

Rossi, standing at the edge of the penalty area, intercepted the pass and picked the ball into the box at the first time.

The ball went over the head of the centre-back and fell at great speed, and Wilson cut in from the back post at high speed, faced the goalkeeper and headed the ball into the far corner.

2:1!!!

【GOAL!!! 】

[Bournemouth took advantage of an opponent's mistake and scored.] 】

[I can't imagine that Luo has such an excellent sense of smell in the forward position, this steal is too important. 】

[With only two shots on target, Bournemouth scored two goals, which was frighteningly efficient.] 】

Neil Adams roared in disbelief, it was a great counter-attacking opportunity, and because of a team's mismatch, Rossi took the opportunity and scored.

Isn't today's luck ours?

Wilson, who scored twice, smiled, and at this moment, he really wanted to thank Rosie.

"Luo, I'll pay for tonight's consumption."

After overtaking the score, Norwich had no way back and had to attack.

Neil Adams made a big swing of his hand and let guard Michael Turner defend against Rossi.

As long as Rossi is restricted from taking the ball, then Bournemouth's counter-attack will not be effective.

In the final ten minutes, Bournemouth brought on Pugh for Ryan Fraser and McDonald for Gosling.

Pugh was able to tighten the control of the midfield, leading the score and no longer needed the pace of counter-attacking.

Norwich pressed frantically towards the opposition goal, but the more anxious they were, the farther away they were from the goal.

In the 88th minute, Bournemouth organized an attack at the back.

Rossi withdrew to midfield to pick up the ball and appeared between the two midfielders.

At this time, Michael Turner, he was also a little hesitant.

Rossi's position is already too far forward, and it is near the middle circle.

And there are two teammates around, so there shouldn't be a problem.

At this moment, O'Kane saw Rosie and passed it without saying a word.

Elliott and Tetai both have their own marking areas, and Rossi will subconsciously hesitate to take the ball here.

What about people? Is there no one to defend him?

At this moment's hesitation, Rossi has already finished turning and advancing with the ball.

"Michael, stand up to him, stand up to him."

Seeing that his teammates did not go to the top, Tetai hurriedly reminded him during the chase.

But Michael Turner hesitated for a second before he acted.

It was a slow shot, and Norwich couldn't finish the siege on Rossi, giving him a chance to split the ball.

[Bournemouth's chance, now Pugh has the ball, Rowe has stepped forward, the ball is out.] 】

[The two used a simple two-to-two against the wall to open the gap behind Michael, and Luo entered the penalty area. 】

【Knock on the door!!!! 】

[The ball went in, the ball went in.] Rowe used his least pace, breaking through Norwich's defence, facing the goalkeeper and slotting home with ease. 】

[It's incredible.] Bournemouth had just three shots on target throughout the game, but they scored in all of them. 】

[What a terrible goalscoring efficiency this is, if I had to use one word to describe Norwich's defense at the moment, then there is only one name, which can match the performance of this game. 】

The home fans were already disappointed, and they didn't care what the commentators were going to use to humiliate the players.

The narrator exhaled slowly and said three words with a full heart.

[Shoot to death!] 】
