Chapter 238 Against Tottenham
However, on this day, an earthquake-level news broke out in the Premier League transfer market.
Southampton's Virgil van Dijk moved to Liverpool at a price of 500 million pounds, which broke the transfer record for a central defender.
Sure enough, what should come will come!
Zhang Chong thought to himself, with Van Dijk, Liverpool will undergo a qualitative change!
Zhang Chong couldn't help but look at the match schedule, good guy, he will play them away in ten days.
This unlucky schedule!
At the pre-match press conference with Tottenham that day, a reporter also asked: "What do you think of Van Dijk's transfer to Liverpool?"
Zhang Chong is honest: "Liverpool have found the right man. Their defense will make a qualitative leap."
Pochettino's face was not so good: "Liverpool made a good deal."
Zhang Chong understands his feelings very well. Liverpool is now ranked sixth, and Tottenham are ranked fifth. They are the first victims of Liverpool's epic reinforcement.
And Pochettino was very depressed, didn't he say that the boss is picky?The buyer is also unambiguous!Seventy-five million pounds to buy a central defender, is this something that a stingy person can do?
Let's look at our boss and our chairman Levi again, let's not talk, my heart is full of tears...
Zhang Chong also thought of Tottenham's management, and was full of sympathy for Pochettino for a while.
It's game day.
Bury's starting lineup for this game is Mendy, Klaus, Shik, Maguire, Cheng Sichu, Kanter, Rice, Chen Ming, Bowen, Mbappe and the British God of Gamblers.
This is basically the main force.
At home, Bury has only one goal and that is to win!
The two sides have fought against each other many times before, and they are relatively familiar with each other, so the two sides did not try it out, but started to fight against each other as soon as they came up.
In the 6th minute, Bury took the lead, and Mbappe took the ball from the left. Facing Trippier's defense, he first made a tentative step, and then directly chose to go to the bottom!
Trippier's start speed was not as fast as Mbappé's, and he was shaken out of the cross space.
Mbappe didn't hesitate and made a cross directly!
Vertonghen in the penalty area pushed the ball ahead of Daying God of Gamblers, but Chen Ming outside the penalty area had already rushed to the spot and volleyed directly!
The ball was fast and urgent, but it was a pity that the angle was a little bit more positive, and the ball was saved by Lori.
From the corner, Schick got the first point in the crowd, but his header went just over the bar.
In this game, Pochettino chose Trippier at the right back position. It seems that Ye Jiang really made Pochettino's mind buzzing.
No. In the 13th minute, Wanyama got the ball in the backcourt and gave the ball to Eriksson. Eriksson stopped the ball and turned around, and then passed a long diagonal pass to Sun Ball King on the left.
Sun Qiuwang received the ball and cut in directly, while Kane retreated to near the penalty area line, ready to meet him.
Sure enough, Sun Qiuwang passed the ball to him, and at the same time ran around the penalty area around him.
The moment the two passed by each other, Kane tapped his heel and sent the ball to Sun Qiuwang!
At this time, due to Kane's blocking, Klaus who was following the defense was stuck behind him and could not interfere with him!
Sun Qiuwang really chose to kick and shoot!
But Maguire stepped forward and blocked the shot with his body!
The ball popped out of the penalty area, Kanter grabbed the football before Eriksson, he turned around and passed Eriksson's press, and then started to advance with the ball!
At this time, it was the critical moment to switch from offense to defense. He glanced at the running positions of his frontcourt teammates, and decisively passed the ball to Bowen!
After Bowen got the ball and cut inside, the British God of Gamblers decisively chose to cross into the penalty area diagonally, and Bowen also understood his intention, and directly passed the ball to him with a straight kick!
The Great Britain God of Gamblers had already arrived at the ribs of the penalty area. He glanced at Lori who was about to block the angle, and decisively chose to sweep the middle with great force!
And Chen Ming had already advanced at high speed, he threw his whole body out, and shoveled and shot!
The football flew into the goal without any suspense!
One to zero!
This series of offensive and defensive rhythms was very fast, and finally ended with Bury's goal!
Pochettino patted his thigh helplessly. Things were going too fast and it was too exciting.
After taking the lead, Burry began to slow down the pace of the game.
You can't rush and hit every moment, only by mastering the changes in rhythm can it be more durable.
And Tottenham had to start the offense.
But with Tottenham's configuration, playing positional warfare is really not what they are good at.
The front midfielder Eriksson has no breakthrough ability at all, and once he is close to the body, his power will be reduced by half.
And Sun Qiuwang is a good player in pushing and counterattacking, but the positional battle is not so interesting.
Lamela can push the ball forward, but now his aura is gradually dissipating, and he is drifting away from technical players.
With so few people behind him, Kane can only retreat from time to time, and naturally the direct threat to the goal becomes smaller.
Therefore, although they strengthened their offense, the effect was still not obvious.
And Bury seized the opportunity to counterattack several times, which made Lori break out in cold sweat several times.
In the No.403 minute of the first half, Rice got the ball in the backcourt and directly passed the ball to Chen Ming who retreated.
Wanyama pressed forward, but Chen Ming directly chose a heel kick to pass!
At the same time, he turned around and wiped away Wanyama!
The dark and strong Wanyama obviously didn't expect Chen Ming to make such a move, and was directly shaken by Chen Ming!
Chen Ming began to speed up with the ball, Wanyama behind him couldn't catch up with his speed at all!
Another defensive midfielder Dembele was participating in the attack in the frontcourt just now. At this time, only the back line is left in front of Chen Ming!
Mbappe on the left and Bowen on the right also began to speed up and run towards Tottenham's backcourt. At this time, a four-on-four situation has formed!
In the blink of an eye, Chen Ming had reached the 30-meter zone, and Vertonghen came out to meet him, ready to stop him at all costs!
However, Chen Ming directly handed the ball to Bowen who was cutting in, and he himself accelerated and slanted into the penalty area!
It was the same routine again, Bowen didn't stop the ball, and directly passed the ball to Chen Ming with a small through ball!
After Chen Ming got the ball, he didn't choose to shoot directly. Instead, after taking a step, he twisted his body and made an inverted triangle pass, sending the ball towards the penalty spot!
Mbappe ran there one step earlier than Trippier who was defending, and directly pushed the ball!
The football sticks to the turf and goes straight to the lower left corner of the goal!
Lori didn't have time to adjust his center of gravity, he could only make a vigorous leap, but he couldn't reach the football at all!
The net was hit hard and Bury led [-]-[-]!
The fans at the scene were boiling!This goal means that the game has basically been won!
Pochettino's face was livid, and he knew that the game was over.
Shortly after this goal, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.
Bury leads Tottenham Hotspur [-]-[-] at home!
