Chapter 101 Let me teach you how to move
After Christmas, many people are still on vacation, and the English league has rekindled the war.

At 26 pm on the 6th, Bournemouth will play against Fulham at home.

This team performed poorly in the 2013-14 season and fell into the British Championship, ending the club's 13 consecutive years of Premier League career.

Before the game, the media agreed that this would be a contest between strong teams.

It is very gratifying for the fans to enjoy a strong dialogue during the festival.

The Bournemouth team trained at the training base in the morning to activate the players' state, eliminate the "holiday syndrome", and allow them to return to the tense state of the game as soon as possible.

"Luo, where did you go on Christmas Eve, and no one answered the phone to your apartment?"

Before the training session, the players chatted in the dressing room, sharing anecdotes about the holiday.

Wilson wants to invite Rosie to the holidays, but can't find anyone else.

Rossi said: "I'm going out for a walk, it's too boring to be alone."

At this time, O'Kane came over and said, "Luo, have you gone to London? That night, I seemed to see you shopping with a girl."

Rossi's heart skipped a beat, he didn't want to involve Pixie in front of his teammates, "You read it wrong."

O'Kane thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, there were too many people at that time, so I couldn't see clearly."

Wilson laughed and said, "You kid is chasing stars again. Pixie is just performing on stage, not having a concert. You actually went to London on Christmas Eve."

"Do you understand music?" O'Kane rolled his eyes at him, and suddenly said triumphantly, "Do you know that when Pixie sang on Christmas Eve, she was waving our team's scarf."

"What does this mean, our team has such a big star fan, it can be regarded as famous."

Other players also showed interest and contributed all the gossip news they knew.

"I heard that at the Lantern Festival, Pixie was dating his rumored boyfriend. Some fans saw it with their own eyes and even took a photo with her."

"It is said that the man next to Pixie has been wearing a hat, so he can't see his face clearly, and he doesn't know what he looks like."

"I think it must be some big star, otherwise I wouldn't be so secretive."

……

After a while, the assistant coach interrupted their gossip and said, "It's training time, don't dawdle, hurry, hurry, hurry!"

In the physical training in the morning, the players were in very good condition, and the necessary rest can keep the players full of energy.

Fulham played in the Premier League for 13 years before being relegated last season.

In the UEFA Cup in the 09-10 season, they defeated the defending champion Shakhtar Donetsk one after another, reversed Juventus, even defeated the top two Bundesliga Wolfsburg and Hamburg, and reached the final.

It's a pity that in the final with Atletico Madrid, he was killed in overtime and lost the club's first European championship in history.

Although relegated, their strength should not be underestimated.

In the afternoon, Eddie Howe took the players to practice tactics, and analyzed the opponent's characteristics and style of play, hoping that at home tonight, the team can win the first victory after Christmas.

Fulham, as the last team in the British Championship that is expected to snipe Bournemouth's unbeaten record, received extensive support from the media before the game.

Last season, Bundesliga coach Magath took over the team midway, but failed to lead the team to avoid relegation. The losing streak in the new season also made him dismiss get out of class early.

Now the coach is Welshman Simmons. As the head coach of the team's U21, the club decided to let him take over temporarily.

After he took over the team, he performed well, and now he is in the 8th place in the standings, and is expected to impact his eligibility for promotion.

As the biggest dark horse this season, Bournemouth will definitely give the team a boost if they can beat them.

As soon as the two teams walked out of the player tunnel, amazing cheers broke out in the stadium.

First of all, it is still a holiday, and it is very lucky for the fans to see a strong dialogue during the holiday.

Secondly, Fulham is the last team that Bournemouth has played against this season. The previous 23 teams have remained unbeaten.

If they can win tonight, the team will remain unbeaten in the half of the league. I am afraid that it will be difficult for latecomers to break this record.

It is also because of the great significance of this game. As a game during the festival, the stadium is full of seats, and the bars in the two cities are also full.

drop~~~
With a loud whistle, the 23rd round of the English Championship officially started.

Fulham kick off.

Fulham, who has played in the Premier League for many years, invited Magath in the second half of last season, hoping to succeed in relegation under the leadership of the Bundesliga coach.

Regrettably, Magath, who once led Wolfsburg to the Bundesliga championship, failed to save the team and was eventually relegated to the British Championship.

The Fulham club executives also gave Magath a chance, hoping that he would lead the team back to the Premier League.

But in the first 8 rounds of the league, they only achieved a poor record of one win, one draw and six losses, and Magath was fired.

It's not that Magath's ability is not good, but his training method has caused dissatisfaction among the players.

When he was in Germany, Magath loved high-intensity physical training and used extremely strict training to train players' active running, fierce fighting and tenacious will.

But this kind of training will also attract players' resentment.

Especially with such a tight schedule in England, how could the players' bodies survive.

Now the head coach Simmons is the U21 coach of the team. He is very familiar with the training methods of the players and the way of getting along with the players.

Under his leadership, the team has made great strides all the way, and gradually it has the appearance of a Premier League team.

Both sides are using a 4-4-2 parallel lineup.

The difference is that Bournemouth's midfielder belongs to the style of pass and control technology.

Use pass control to advance steadily, move the opponent's defense back and forth, and then use a transfer ball to hit the weak side defensive area to form a threat.

Fulham's midfielder is a smart midfielder who quickly breaks through and advances counterattacks.

Using the running and active fighting of the players, once the ball is grabbed, the three in the midfield can use two or three passes to quickly hit the opponent's hinterland.

So at the beginning of the game, the offense of the two teams made the fans hooked.

Although Magath only coached Fulham for 7 months and then dismissed get out of class, the sense of fighting he injected into the team still played a role.

In the 5th minute, Fulham used active running and decisive and quick shoveling in the backcourt to steal the ball from Pugh's feet and launched a counterattack from the side.

Fulham's flexible and fast midfielder easily pushed the ball in front of the opponent's penalty area. Using the wall-hitting cooperation, Seko Fofana passed the ball into the penalty area and gave it to McMarco.

The Surlander used his agile foot skills to shake off Cook's defense and wanted to give the goalkeeper a shot through the crotch.

Goalkeeper Boruc quickly bent his right foot and knelt down to seal the gap in his crotch and block the ball.

From this attack, we can see Fulham in the counterattack, the flexibility and mobility of the players.

Eddie Howe loudly reminded the players on the field to maintain a high degree of vigilance in the face of such a sensitive striker.

Although he didn't score a goal, Simmons was quite satisfied with the offense.

Although the team's offensive players are short, they can turn around flexibly and can often take one step faster than the opponent's defender. This is also the technical characteristic of the team.

May I ask the Championship team, who's counterattack can match Fulham?
Eddie Howe is also very aware of the characteristics of the opponent's style of play.

However, this is not exclusive to you.

In terms of starting position, Eddie Howe has enough confidence.

Bournemouth had the ball, and Simmons told the players to pay attention to defense.

Their frontcourt players are not tall, but their central and backcourt players have a good ability to fight for the top. They averaged as many as ten header clearances per game, which shows that their air defense capabilities are not bad.

There is speed in the frontcourt and defense in the back. What can I use to fight against me?

When Simmons was proud, Rich dribbled the ball on the right side, passed Ruiz's defense, and passed the ball between the opponent's left back and left center back.

At this time, when Rossi ran to the central defender laterally, he saw Rich's pass and suddenly advanced.

Fulham's right central defender Bodulov saw Rossi approaching his teammates and was about to remind him, but Rich suddenly made such a pass.

He subconsciously took a step out, putting Rossi in an offside position.

But he ignored his own left-back, he did not notice Rossi's movement.

His offside has become a hidden danger for defense.

In an instant, Rossi was already three meters away from the last defender when he went forward to catch the ball.

Fulham's defense was also helpless, all this happened too fast, and they could only stay in place for a while.

Facing the attacking goalkeeper, Rossi took the ball one step to the right with his left foot.

The goalkeeper, who had already lowered his center of gravity, immediately moved laterally to block.

But his moving speed is far less than Rossi's shooting.

When Rossi touched the ball for the third time, he had already used the inside of his foot to finish the shot.

The goalkeeper fell to the ground to block, but Rossi's connection from dribbling to shooting was very fast.

Before the goalkeeper fell to the ground, the ball had passed under his armpit and slowly rolled into the far corner.

yeah! ! ! !

Rossi's goal instantly ignited the passion of the home fans.

In just 9 minutes of the game, Rossi took advantage of a ghostly counter-offside to break the opponent's goal.

This movement awareness, this calm shooting, how calm and calm, simple and clear.

One stop, one move, one shot.

The goal is so simple that even the fans at the scene feel that they can score goals if they play by themselves.

Simmons, who was still complacent about how smart his striker's running position was just now, touched his head with his hand, with an expression of disbelief.

This slap in the face came too fast.

Eddie Howe on the side was triumphant, his expression seemed to say,
"Run position, that's how it should be!"
