Chapter 86 away to Coventry
The team checked into the hotel in the morning, and then the players will rest in the room for a few hours, and the game will be played at [-] pm.

Gao Bo stood in the hotel lobby, looking at the gloomy sky.The dark clouds in the distant sky kept gathering, making Gao Bo feel as if there was a large reservoir full of water above his head.
"The weather forecast says there will be no rain." Lin Sen reminded beside him.

"England's weather forecast is even more unreliable than domestic ones!" Gao Bo complained helplessly as he watched the dark clouds over the city in the distance.

Gao Bo knew a meteorological expert before. According to the expert, the current level of weather forecasting is similar to that of an old farmer looking at the weather. Most of the time, it is not so accurate - expecting to look at the weather cloud map to analyze the weather in a week is basically blind. You don't know which way the wind is going to blow.
Sure enough, the sky has begun to rain, and it seems that the rain will become heavier and heavier.

Gao Bo shook his head helplessly, he hated playing in the rain.

Because in his opinion, although Coventry is a team in the British Championship, Luton has an advantage in strength. With the improvement of cards, Coventry's hard power is not as good as Luton.

So what Gao Bo hopes is a game under good weather conditions, so that Luton can give full play to its advantages and reduce any accidents.

Fortunately, an hour before the start of the game, the sky was still drizzling, and there was no tendency to develop into a heavy rain, and the dark clouds had dispersed a lot.Gao Bo breathed a sigh of relief.

The weather in England is really unpredictable, you don't know what it will be like in the next second.

But no matter what, this will not allow the team to play in the rain.

The game was played at four o'clock in the afternoon, but in the parking lot outside the Ricoh Stadium, it was already difficult to find an empty parking space at three o'clock in the afternoon. The overcast sky was drizzling, but the English people were used to it, and the fans didn't even have an umbrella.

Ricoh Stadium is a newly built stadium in Coventry in 2005, which can accommodate more than 3 fans. Before that, Coventry's Highfield Road Stadium was also very famous in England.

海菲尔德路球场是英格兰第一个全坐席球场，同时是全英格兰草地覆盖面积最大的球场之一。2005年4月30日，考文垂在这里6-2战胜德比郡并告别106年历史的海菲尔德路球场，之后天蓝军团搬进了位于城市北部的理光球场。

The team's bus left the hotel at 02:30, and the bus slowly moved on the narrow roads in downtown Coventry. Although the hotel was only seven or eight kilometers away from the stadium, the team's bus still walked for almost half an hour.

The low houses on both sides are like boxes coated with cheese. Under the gloomy sky, these milky white roofs reflect a different kind of light.

The players are blind to the scenery outside the window, they are now doing their own things in the car.Listen to music, close your eyes and rest your mind, and some are chatting in low voices.The players have adapted to this pace of life. For an ordinary away game like Coventry, the players did not get too nervous or excited.

The team's bus quickly stopped at the designated parking spot, and the players packed their things and got off the bus one after another. They were pressed for time.

Now there is only one hour before the start of the game, they have to hurry up to warm up, and at the same time they have to adapt to the away field.

It was drizzling and the sky was very foggy, but the atmosphere in the stadium was very warm.

Facing Luton, the opponent, Coventry fans showed their "warm welcome".

When Luton's players appeared at the stadium, more than 3 Coventry fans booed sharply. They used this method to give Luton a blow.

This made the Luton players couldn't help but look into the stands.As a team in the Second Division, Luton rarely encounters such targeted treatment in away games in the FA Cup.The third round against Chelsea was away, but at that time Chelsea fans didn't think that Luton could beat Chelsea, so they ignored it when Luton came out to warm up.

Now Coventry fans booed their opponents as soon as Luton came out to warm up, which shows that they really feel that Luton is a team that is enough to threaten Coventry.

Mourinho's good friend Coleman actually feels pretty good about drawing Luton as an opponent. Although the media believes that Luton is fully capable of playing in the Premier League, Coleman doesn't think so.

Luton does have certain strength, but a lot of it lies in the underestimation of Chelsea and Manchester City.

Coventry will not underestimate the enemy!So Coleman thinks his team can at least reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

In the last round of the Championship, Coventry lost at home to Sheffield United, which made them slip to No.12 in the Championship standings, eight points behind No.6 Bristol City. It seems that this season is another disappointing season for Coventry fans. Their hope of upgrading this season is already very small.

However, in the FA Cup, Coventry's performance was not bad, and they were lucky. In the third round, they drew Kingdamister.

However, in the fifth round, Coventry met Blackburn in the Premier League. Coventry fell behind by two goals in the away game. However, in the second half, Coventry's team launched a Jedi counterattack.

"We are not qualified to underestimate the enemy!" In the locker room of the home team, Coleman's face was still not relaxed.

Although he feels that Luton is not as strong as the media said, there are two brushes for being able to eliminate Chelsea and Manchester City's teams, and he must make Coventry's players pay full attention to this opponent in front of them.

"Chelsea and Manchester City have been eliminated by them. If we think that this is just an ordinary second division team, this can only show our stupidity!!" Coleman pointed to his head and said, "Don't underestimate the enemy!!"

"In this game, we will base ourselves on defense first. We are playing at home. We must first stabilize our defense and then deal with them!" Coleman obviously regarded Luton as an opponent of the same level before dealing with them.

These two opponents don't know each other well, so it's obviously too risky to attack rashly, so Coleman's choice is understandable.

　I forgot to update the settings when I went out in the morning, so I kept everyone waiting, sorry o(╯□╰)o
