Edgar looked incredulous, and he immediately ran to the referee and explained with a pleading look that his tackle was rushing, hoping that the referee would change the decision.

However, the referee's determined eyes told him that it was a behind-the-back tackle, a dangerous move, and a red card was unquestionable.

Edgar bowed his head and fell into disgrace.

"Luo, are you alright?"

Rossi was helped to his feet by Wilson, and a tackle behind his back could easily cause a serious ankle injury.

Therefore, in order to protect the players, FIFA punishes dangerous actions such as tackling behind the back and lifting the foot too high in the tackle.

Even if the game escapes, there will be additional penalties afterwards.

"It's okay, just move around."

Rosie sighed secretly, with his current physical fitness, after this "pendulum passer" shook the goalkeeper, the speed and explosiveness to keep up with it were not enough, which led to being caught up by Edgar behind him.

If Da Luo had come in person, he would have been shaking his fingers in celebration.

Eddie Howe, who was off the field, was not at ease, and immediately sent the team doctor to check on him, until he gave an accurate answer.

It's too much of a deception.

Luo Du formed a single knife, and also tackled the ball behind his back, which is a hurtful action.

Now that you have one less person, see how you are still fighting?

"Hey!"

Eddie Howe shouted at the players on the pitch and made a forward gesture with both hands, signaling for them to attack.

Birmingham, who wanted to make a big play, were sent off in less than 10 minutes of the opening game.

Clark couldn't be happy, so he quickly removed striker Wes Thomas and replaced him with midfielder Davies, changing to a 3-5-1 formation.

Poor Wes, who hadn't been happy for a few minutes, was sacrificed to a reckless tackle by a teammate.

Bournemouth were awarded an indirect free-kick from outside the box, Rich lobbed the ball into the box, and Birmingham, who had one man less, made a mistake on the marker, and there was no tacit understanding between the players, and it was easily headed into the goal by Pittman.

0:1！！！

Bournemouth took the lead on the road.

After conceding the goal, Clark encouraged his players that the game had just started and there was still a chance to equalise.

Birmingham tightened their defence and used the numerical advantage of the midfield five to create protection on both flanks and limit the opposition's wide attacks.

Once you get the ball, you can counter-attack and pass the ball to Donaldson up front.

This requires the two wing-backs to be physically fit enough to attack and withdraw at the same time.

It depends on whether Bournemouth are in form or in a dead end.

However, Eddie Howe was unhappy with Birmingham's move to bring down Rossi.

He just wanted to ask for a draw, and the opponent actually took advantage of the danger to take all three points, and he also wanted to hurt himself as his home shooter.

Can't bear it.

How could the head of the dignified "Young Zhuang Sect" swallow this breath, and he must attack it.

Under the direction of the manager, the Bournemouth players turned into "mad dog" mode and began to press frantically up front.

The unintelligible Birmingham team, when they wanted to attack from the wing with the ball, they were immediately confronted by a very pressing man-to-man defence.

What's going on, how are their eyes red, so terrible.

Didn't it mean that they didn't dare to attack in a big way?

The bewildered Birmingham players hurriedly passed the ball, but the opponent's pressing and pressing were very fast, and the feet were decisive, which invisibly formed a strong deterrent.

Drop, Bournemouth defender Harry fouled and received a yellow card.

Bournemouth defender Cook was fouled and booked.

Bournemouth defender Surman was fouled and booked.

Three yellow cards in a row in the space of ten minutes, although all of them were given to the visitors, but Birmingham had a fear in their hearts, a fear of the Bournemouth team's crazy pressing.

They feel like the ball will break at their feet at any time.

So after getting the ball, immediately rush the ball.

In the 35th minute, Bournemouth's pressing up finally paid off.

After Richie made a steal in the front court, he immediately launched a counterattack and picked up a pass, which went directly to Wilson, who was inserted forward.

Rossi's lead was used in a single play, giving Wilson a chance to make a 1v1.

Wilson shook off the angle with a feint, faked a real shot, completely shook off the defender, and knocked on the goal with a burst of shots, extending the score to 0:2.

In the 40th minute, it was another mistake in front of Birmingham.

After Suhrman broke the ball, he passed to the front court, and Wilson quickly broke to the bottom line and passed the ball back to the feet of Rossi at the penalty spot, who ate the cake easily.

0:3！！！

It was only the first half, and Birmingham had already given the home fans a sense of the end of the world.

At halftime, Clark still encouraged his players to stabilize the defense first and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

Because Bournemouth will definitely pull back in the second half, that's the chance.

Birmingham, who had regained a bit of confidence, set up a counter-attack at the start of the second half, but the cross was cleared by Cook.

This offense also allowed fans to see the changes in the team, and they sang in unison to cheer for the team.

But Richie of the Bournemouth team immediately used a flying tackle to tell Birmingham to be careful, we didn't have any strength.

Although he received a yellow card, Richie used his actions to instantly extinguish the opponent's newly ignited fighting spirit.

There are more people than us, and they are more active in running than us, how can this be fought?

The coach lied to people, where did they collect it, it was obviously for people's lives.

At this moment, the players of the Birmingham team can no longer feel happy.

In the 52nd minute, Elfik committed a foul in the penalty area, not only allowing himself to receive a yellow card, but also giving the opponent a penalty.

However, Cadiz conceded the penalty in front of Bournemouth's strong pressing.

His mentality was completely broken.

In the 56th minute, Gosling replaced Harry and Rand replaced Rossi.

In the 63rd minute, Pugh received a cross from defender Francis and scored with an unsuccessful header.

0:4！

Five minutes later, it was another dream connection between Pugh and Francis, this time with a volley that stopped the ball with his chest.

0:5！

The Birmingham team was completely stunned, powerless to resist, despair and helplessness were clearly visible in their faces.

In the 71st minute, Ryan Fraser replaced Wilson to keep him ready for Tuesday's EFL Cup.

In the 82nd minute, Pugh received a through ball from defender Gosling, successfully countered offside, and scored the ball.

While rewriting the score to 0:6, he also completed the first hat-trick of his career.

Two minutes later, substitute Ranti hit a defender's arm and the referee awarded a penalty.

Randy made it overnight, and the score had reached 0:7.

Now the Birmingham side just want the game to end as soon as possible, and the home fans have also left the stadium, chanting "Class".

In the 86th minute, Randy received a pass from Ridge and scored his second goal of the game, giving Birmingham the biggest score difference in more than 100 years.

Clark's admired "happy football", the moment Edgar shoveled at Rossi, it snapped, it was gone.

Eddie Howe said in his post-match interview that football is fun, but discipline has to be serious.

Happiness is to infect the players and create a good atmosphere in the team, not an excuse for the players to make mistakes.

Although Birmingham players can take the initiative to take mistakes after making mistakes, they feel that admitting mistakes can cover up the essence of mistakes, which is simply an excuse for laziness.

Birmingham's "happy football" is actually a kind of sloppy and unmotivated performance within the team.

After the 0-8 goal defeat to Bournemouth, Birmingham officially announced that Clark was sacked and Gary Rovitt took over.

Eddie Howe returned to Bournemouth with his squad to prepare for the EFL Cup.
