opening a balotelli

Hazard is really convinced of Li Mo. If it is said that he felt a little uncomfortable because of the huge amount of media attention that Li Mo enjoyed before, after this game, those awkward emotions in his heart disappeared in an instant. .

What else is there to say? Face to face, Li Mo made two shots and one pass, and the last ball directly killed the game under pressure.

And although he himself said that he caused a lot of trouble for Sheffield United's defense, he neither scored nor assisted. There is no need to compare, and the gap in personal strength can be seen at a glance.

Geniuses are indeed proud, but when they encounter opponents whose strength is much higher than them, they are also genuinely admired in their hearts.

If you want to challenge and compete, then you can fight again the next time you meet. There is no suspense in this game. Hazard refuses to admit defeat, but he can afford to lose.

After Sheffield United finished celebrating, there were only a few minutes left in the regular time of the game. As soon as Chelsea kicked off, Sheffield United put on a defensive posture.

Li Mo retreated to his own half to assist in the defense. Chelsea players tried several long passes. After being pushed back one by one by Sheffield United, there was not much left to attack.

In the end, the score was fixed at 3-1. Sheffield United lost at home and lost two goals. Chelsea fans can actually accept this result.

That's at least better than Manchester United.

The audience who watched the game were full of praise for the performance of the players on both sides.

This game is not only a competition of skills and tactics between the two sides, but also a competition of will.

Sheffield United showed their absolute dominance in the Premier League this season, and Chelsea, who lost the game, did not lose nothing.

Their young attackers are full of talent, at least Hazard is really putting pressure on Sheffield United's defenders.

The three Belgian players who played in this game successfully started the name of Belgium's golden generation.

Coupled with Alderweireld, who is currently performing well in Tottenham, and Lukaku, who is shining in West Brom, many giants have set their sights on this generation of Belgian players.

Vertonghen, De Bruyne and Hazard may not be able to dig, but other young Belgian talents have something to talk about.

However, after counting the belonging teams of these young Belgian players, Chelsea once again gained a lot of envy and hatred.

Good guy, Courtois, Lukaku, Hazard and other young leaders are all owned by Chelsea. If they didn't sign De Bruyne's buyout contract with Sheffield United before, then Chelsea will now own Belgium. The best players of the younger generation.

Others dug little demons one by one, but Chelsea was so ruthless that she dug a nest directly, which perfectly explained what it means to "win the future".

After the game, Li Mo took the initiative to exchange jerseys with Hazard, and the two exchanged their mouths on the court for a while.

He really likes players like Hazard very much. I don't know if there will be a chance to cooperate in the future, but it is always right to form a good relationship.

Of course, when it comes to true love, it has to be Ding Ding. When De Bruyne grows up in the future, he will have endless pies. Not like De Bruyne in the next few years.

After greeting Lampard and the others, Li Mo took De Bruyne and his teammates to say goodbye.

Once this game is over, Sheffield United's opponents in the next three rounds of the league are all mid-lower teams, so Speed ​​is likely to rotate again in the next league game, so the main players will be in a happy mood.

After defeating a strong enemy, ushered in the holidays, and the teammates who rotated also got a valuable starting opportunity for the next league game, everyone was naturally happy.

After talking and laughing back to the locker room, the assistant coach replaced Speed ​​who participated in the post-match press conference and directly announced the decision of the main players to take a two-day vacation.

Maguire took the lead in cheering, but Li Mo laughed and teased De Bruyne and Vardy, asking them to cheer for the next league game.

Vardy's number of league goals has reached nine, and he will take the lead in the next game. If he scores a goal, he can almost enter the top ten of the Premier League scorer list this season.

With the addition of Li Mo and Bell, Sheffield United will directly occupy three positions in the top ten scorers list, and naturally they will have another big show.

However, after encouraging his teammates, Li Mo didn't even do physical therapy today, and rushed home after a hasty rinse.

The teammates all knew that Li Mo's girlfriend came to see him, so there was a lot of teasing and booing, and they promised to treat guests to dinner after the next round of the league. Li Mo escaped amidst the teasing of a group of animals.

When passing by the mixed interview area, Li Mo, who was in a good mood, rarely accepted the reporters' interview requests.

He admitted his love affair very generously. Although he didn't reveal more details, the reporters were satisfied. After congratulating Li Mo on his performance on the field today, the two parties bid farewell harmoniously.

The No.20 five rounds of the Premier League will start in three days, so although the exposure of Li Mo's love affair has attracted widespread attention from the fans, the popularity of the league has gradually declined as the league is in full swing.

The main reason is that the paparazzi couldn't dig out more detailed information. Coupled with Li Mo's deliberately low-key, the fans didn't know who the woman was, so naturally they lost interest in further attention.

Li Mo also stayed at home and spent two days with Krystal in the two-person world.

On February 2, when Sheffield United's rotation players ushered in the challenge of the Black Cats Sunderland at home, Li Mo's main players also started recovery training.

After the morning training, everyone had lunch at the training base. After the lunch break, the training lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and then entered the personal extra training time.

However, the Sheffield United players and the left-behind coaches did not disperse to busy themselves with their own affairs, but gathered together to watch today's game.

At this time, the match between Sheffield United and Sunderland was also in the second half, and the score on the field was still 0-0. It seemed that the game was quite anxious.

Facing the striker combination of Berbatov + Vardy, Sunderland's defense is very tenacious today.

However, when the game progressed to the second half 4 minutes, Berbatov still relied on experience to win a penalty in Sunderland's penalty area.

Brother Xiao Sa personally took the penalty and scored a penalty kick. After breaking the game, the situation of the game was in the hands of Sheffield United.

No. 703 minutes, after De Bruyne made a successful breakthrough, he sent a cross to the ground. Vardy successfully scored behind the Sunderland penalty area. This goal also directly killed the game.

The rotating Sheffield United took down another opponent without bloodshed, and still maintained an absolute lead in the standings, which made the fans of the Manchester City duo anxious.

Berbatov, who played well, once again received the champagne of the best player in the game. The Bulgarian striker proved with his outstanding state that he can still become the most critical winner in the Premier League.

The commentary of Sky Sports even bluntly stated in the game that Berbatov is still capable of serving as the starting center for the mid-range teams of the Premier League.

If Manchester United were willing to give Brother Xiaosa a new contract, he is also fully capable of playing alongside Van Persie.

It's a pity that Ferguson hesitated at the time, allowing Sheffield United to succeed.

Brother Xiaosa is also very comfortable at Sheffield United now. He needs to be respected and respected, and he needs money and money.

After all, any Premier League fan can see the strength of Sheffield United now. If you stay here, you will be paid well if you don’t live long. At the end of your career, you can at least win one or two league championships. up.

Manchester United fans are naturally in mixed feelings.

The hero who helped Manchester United win two league titles in the past is now helping their biggest opponent destroy Manchester United's dynasty.

Let's say hate, I can't hate at all, after all, it was Manchester United who refused to renew the contract and forced Brother Xiaosha away.

So from the bottom of my heart, Manchester United fans still feel a lot of guilt towards Brother Xiaosha.

I can't do it publicly, but I sincerely wish Brother Xiaosa silently in my heart.

Even if Sheffield United really breaks Manchester United's dominance, at least Brother Xiaosha will have a perfect end to his career. Thinking about it this way, Manchester United fans feel a little better.

However, when the fans with good things turned up the schedule of the FA Cup match in February, the Manchester United fans felt better after comforting themselves, and their mood suddenly became extremely bad.

Because they will face Sheffield United again!
On February 2, in the fifth round of the FA Cup, Manchester United will face Sheffield United at home.

Going through the past is the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, and winning three more games will win the championship. To be honest, even if Manchester United's players want to avoid unnecessary consumption, Manchester United fans will not agree.

What's more, there is no such thing as shrinking back when friends meet.

Apart from Liverpool and Leeds United, the club that Manchester United fans hate the most now belongs to Sheffield United.

Even Arsenal would have to finish fourth
So this FA Cup showdown is not just a cup match. Manchester United's previously shattered confidence is bound to be regained in Sheffield United.

Apart from the second chance to meet in the league, there is only this FA Cup game.

Both sides will not shrink back for the sake of dignity and the FA Cup championship, and then it will naturally be another inevitable battle.

However, there is still half a month before the start of this battle, and the media has just begun to warm up the hype. Manchester United and Sheffield United fans can only temporarily focus on the next round of the league.

Manchester United is about to face Everton on February 2, and Sheffield United will go to an away game to challenge Stoke City. From the perspective of the opponent's ranking, Sheffield United's game consumption will be slightly smaller.

However, Sky City's home game has always had a BUFF bonus. Even though Sheffield United basically won the match against Stoke City, Speed ​​did not dare to be careless.

This season, Stoke City introduced Nzonchi from Blackburn. Not to mention his waist has hardened, he has also gone further and further in terms of characteristic set-piece tactics.

This team is one of the few ruthless players in the Premier League who dare to wrestle with Sheffield United in high-altitude bombing.

There are five tall men over 1.9 meters tall, whoever gets hit twice will know how powerful they are.

And Stoke City's two strikers are also useful and affordable.

Crouch and Walters are the kind of powerful forwards who have scored close to double figures in a single season in the league. In addition to scoring goals, one of them has enough fulcrum ability, and the other can run to open up space and give behind. The offensive cluster provides sufficient tactical support.

From a certain point of view, today's Stoke City team may not necessarily be easier to play than Everton. Their finishing ability is slightly worse, but their defensive ability is outstanding, and there are many tricks in playing set kicks.

Although Sky City has just climbed to the No.11 position in the league, but there is no money. If the boss is replaced by two reliable wide players, it will not be a problem for this lineup to enter the European theater.

Speed's tactical targeting of this game also revolved around the wing.

It is more difficult for Stoke City to make a strong breakthrough in the middle after the waist has hardened, and they still have to make a fuss about their weak midfield and wing areas.

On the afternoon of February 2, the main players of Sheffield United arrived at the Britannia Stadium.

Before the match against Manchester United, this game can be regarded as their warm-up battle. Not only their own fans are concerned, but Manchester United fans are also very concerned about their current state.

After all, after resting for more than a week, my physical fitness has recovered, but the state of the game may also become low.

Coupled with Stoke City's home court advantage, many Manchester United fans are looking forward to a big fall for Sheffield United today.

Reporters are concerned about whether Sheffield United can continue their unbeaten record this season.

Arsenal's undefeated championship made a sensation throughout Europe. Since then, there has never been such a team in the Premier League. It is as strong as Manchester United, and it has not been able to replicate the legend of the Gunners' undefeated championship in these years.

This season's Sheffield United is strong enough in terms of record. Now that more than half of the league process has passed, Sheffield United has not lost yet. The media are exclaiming that another super team is about to be born.

Such a record is not only the shackles on Sheffield United, but also the motivation for Sheffield United players to keep moving forward.

Anyway, there are only the last thirteen games left in the league, and all the strong teams that should be played have been played, and the next one won will be one less.

Many Sheffield United players experienced Arsenal's unbeaten championship season as spectators, and they were shocked and inspired by it.

Now when they become the protagonists of the story, they naturally want to be the objects of admiration by the next generation of players.

In Li Mo's words, there are so many champions and legends, why can't it be Sheffield United?
They are already on the road to becoming legends, no matter what the final success or failure is, they must fight hard.

Don't let the fans have any regrets, and don't let them have any regrets.

※※※

At 15:00 in the afternoon, the Premier League No.20 six-round match started on time at the Britannia Stadium.

In order to focus on taking care of Stoke City's wing, Speed ​​directly discharged the wing combination of Bale + De Bruyne today.

Young people always have more momentum, and Joaquin is on standby on the bench, waiting until he has enough advantage to play to control the situation.

The midfield combination of Drinkwater and Dembele is also very aggressive. When necessary, Dembele can hold the ball and advance, which is really a good player to speed up the offensive rhythm.

Li Mo is still partnering with Vardy as a striker, with equal emphasis on strength and dexterity, speed, whatever you want, this is Speed's most assured.

On the defensive line today, Creswell replaced Matt Ridge as the starting left back, in order to liberate Bell's offensive ability. Today, Speed ​​does not intend to let Bell consume physical energy on the defensive end. Break down Stoke City's defense on the right!
Vertonghen and Maguire continued to start as central defenders, and Trippier was sidelined due to muscle discomfort in his thigh. Today, Medel will start at right back.

This is the only bad news in Sheffield United recently.

Trippier should have a thigh muscle strain, and Medel and Matthew Lorton can only be allowed to take turns at the right back.

As for how long it will take to come back, it depends on the opinions of the team doctor behind. It is initially estimated that there should be a truce of three to four weeks, not to mention this round of the league.

Fortunately, Medel is really an all-round fighter in the backcourt. He can play from defender to midfielder. As long as the rotation is proper, it will not be a problem to beat this for nearly a month.

Although the offense on the right side will be affected a bit, there is no need to worry about the defense. Whoever dares to break into Medel's defense zone must be prepared to break a few big teeth.

Stoke City also lined up their main lineup today. The formation is also [-], which can be regarded as a match with Sheffield United.

Therefore, at the beginning of the game, the fighting between the two teams in the midfield seemed a little anxious.

Stoke City's offensive ability is insufficient, but they have a good defense. There is no problem with their physical fitness in the opening stage. Four-on-four at least defended their own defense zone.

However, when Sheffield United continued to shift their offensive direction to the wing, the form changed instantly.

No matter how hard Knightley and Shorten try, these two have barely reached the Premier League level, and they can only be regarded as the top wide players in the British Championship. They can't withstand the impact of Bale.

This is a partial defensive loss of control caused by the gap in strength. No matter how you adjust the restrictions through tactics, it will be difficult for the top players in the British Championship to defend against world-class wing superstars.

And when one-on-one can't stop the offensive player, mobilizing the defender to double-team becomes the only option.

With little adjustment by Stoke City coach Pulis, Nzonchi and Shawcross consciously moved closer to the right defense zone.

Upon seeing this, Li Mo directly switched positions with Vardy. He went to the side close to Bell and directly gave Bell support on the offensive end.

When Stoke City squeezed Bell's space on the left, Li Mo can catch the ball and retreat to serve as a transfer station, and directly transfer to De Bruyne, who is active on the right, and Vardy can also pull the side , On the weak side of Stoke City's defense, the two have a lot of room to play.

The tough defense of Sky City, which has caused headaches for countless Premier League powerhouses, was disintegrated bit by bit by Sheffield United.

There is no need to let the midfielder press forward to organize. Li Mo organizes the attack in the frontcourt by himself.

Although the middle is still a bit impenetrable, due to the involvement of both sides and the continuous transfer of the ball, Stoke City's defense will loosen sooner or later.

Of course, Sheffield United is still very cautious in dealing with Stoke City's occasional counterattacks, at least it will not easily give Stoke City the opportunity to set the ball in the frontcourt and corner kicks.

Even if fouls were to be committed, Sheffield United's midfielders and wing players all made decisive moves near the center circle early on.

After nearly 10 minutes in the first half, Sheffield United patiently searched for opportunities and only gave Stoke City a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt. They didn't even give a corner kick, so the head coach of Stoke City Pulis shook his head repeatedly.

Speed ​​came fully prepared, and would rather slow down the attack than take the risk of pressing on. He knew what tactics Stoke City was pointing at, so he refused to easily give Stoke City a chance to try their luck.

Under Li Mo's continuous support, Sheffield United finally seized an excellent offensive opportunity in the No.301 minute of the first half, and Bell successfully went down the left side.

Shawcross had to pull wide to intercept, and Bale could barely knock the ball back into the Stoke penalty area before dribbling over the baseline.

Li Mo, who was grabbing the point, ran past, and it was obviously a bit reluctant to hook the ball at this time. With an idea, Li Mo simply fell to the ground, and poked the ball out of the penalty area with his extended right foot!
Not to mention that the defensive players of Stoke City did not expect this, many offensive players on the Sheffield United side did not expect it.

It was also this suddenness that when Dembele inserted into the edge of the penalty area and pushed decisively, there were few defensive players around him.

Li Mo was actually a bit lucky, he just probably knew that there was a space behind him, so he stabbed the ball past.

After seeing Dembele's shot, he quickly rolled to the side so as not to affect the ball.

Begovic's slow down to the ground made him look a bit clumsy when dealing with Dembele's foot-to-the-ground cut.

The arm he was trying to intercept came belatedly when the football slid into the near corner against the post, and the Sheffield United players were already celebrating enthusiastically near the Stoke City bottom line!

Pulis couldn't hold back, he waved his arms and swears!

Li Mo's reaction was really monstrous, Nima even ran over and stabbed the ball to his teammate on the ground, he instantly felt like he didn't want to play.

He played with a group of ordinary players and humanoid plug-ins, how could he pass this game!

On the other side, Speed ​​hugged the assistant in surprise.

They were also a little puzzled, this was the first time they had seen this kind of assist method, and Speed ​​was even speculating, Li Mo couldn't be fooling around, right?

However, whether it is a stroke of genius or blindness, Sheffield United's lead is a real result, which is worth celebrating!

After watching the director's replays several times, the commentator also said with a smile that Stoke City's luck was not very good.

But the strong will be strong. If Sheffield United did not create an excellent offensive opportunity at that time, there would be no follow-up. In the final analysis, Sheffield United's patience gave them back.

And in the case of falling behind, Stoke City can only think of ways on the offensive end.

If you want to play set-piece tactics, you must first transfer the ball to Sheffield United's half.

Pulis held his hand and did not rush forward in the first half, and Sheffield United also consolidated their advantage until the halftime break.

As soon as the second half of the game started, Stoke City was a little ready to move.

But Sheffield United did not panic at all, even if it was only a one-goal lead, such an advantage was not safe, and they patiently waited for Stoke City to make the first move.

Seeing this, Pulis can only let the players on the two wings try to advance with the ball.

After many attempts to no avail, Sheffield United instead sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and began to control the field near the middle circle.

In desperation, Stoke City pressed forward as a whole. At this time, even if it is a risk, it has to increase its offensive strength.

After seeing the changes in the situation, Drinkwater decisively retreated with his teammates, hooking the players on both wings of Stoke City to continue to penetrate into the hinterland of Sheffield United.

In the 607th minute of the second half, Dembele slammed east and west. Watching Bell's running position, he sent a long pass directly to De Bruyne on the right.

And Ding Ding took advantage of the chaos of the Stoke City midfielder returning to the defense and decisively kicked the back of Stoke City on the right!
Li Mo's roundabout running position and sprint speed allowed him to successfully reverse offside. Vardy immediately took away Huth's defense, so after rushing past Shawcross, Li Mo directly got a single-handed chance!
After the fake shot and the real kick deceived Begovic's center of gravity, Li Mo easily pushed the empty goal and succeeded. Then he ran to the bottom of the fans' stand of the visiting team, laughed and signaled his teammates to come and celebrate winning the game!
De Bruyne scored another assist and got a head-slapping celebration from all his teammates.

Vardy jumped on Li Mo's back excitedly, signaling the fans of Sheffield United to give them more cheers.

Don't get me wrong, he is not so happy because he won this game, but excited for the upcoming game!
This is the case for all Sheffield United members. The "warm-up match" is over, and the arrival of the "dinner" is what they are most concerned about now.

Beat Manchester United or something, the best!
