Chapter 222 Bell's first goal against Everton in the first round of the Premier League!

Visiting team locker room.

Redknapp looked serious, looking at the players in front of him.

"This is our first game of the season. Against an opponent like Everton, it's both a good thing and a bad thing." Redknapp scanned the week and observed everyone's expressions. "The good thing is that we didn't meet a really strong team, so we won't face great pressure in the first game of the season. The bad thing is that Everton is not an easy team to deal with. Moyes' team has always been stable, and it is firmly in the middle of the league. The strength is obviously stronger than us!"

"But! I think Everton is a touchstone. We played very well last season. We are definitely a team with the strength of the Premier League. Now that a year has passed, our strength has also improved a lot. I believe we can perform better and better than last year!"

Redknapp's voice suddenly became aroused, and the strong confidence in his words immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the players.

"Go, at the opponent's home court, let them see our strength!"

As soon as the words fell, the players filed out amidst the sound of cheering.

……

"Okay, everyone is welcome to watch this game kick off at 3 pm at the same time. Everton is playing at home against the newly promoted Southampton!"

"Everton has a traditional 4-4-2 formation. The goalkeeper is Tim Howard, who is on loan from Manchester United. At the back, Phil Neville, Valente, Stubbs and Jabo are lined up. Midfielders Arteta and Carsley are at the back. Tim Cahill and Simon Davis are at the front. On the front line, Beatty partnered with Andy Johnson!"

"Southampton's personnel is not much different from last season. The goalkeeper is the newly joined Kevin Davis. The defense line includes Cassel, Bailey, Lundekvam and Baird. This defense line has two new aids Cassel and Bailey. Baird is the right back in the midfield. It is said that the original main right back Powell is not in good physical condition, so he has not been able to start. In the midfield position, the new aid Andy Hughes is at the back, and the young team's No. [-] and captain Yunfei is in the middle. Suleman is at the top to form a three midfielder, and the frontcourt is still a combination of Bale, Jones and Fuller. It can be seen that Southampton is very confident in their tactics and staffing last season!"

At the beginning of the game, Everton relied on their number advantage in the midfield and relatively higher ability and experience to take over the initiative of the game very strongly. Under the leadership of Moyes, Everton is not considered a traditional England team. This can be seen from their Spanish midfielder Arteta.

With the existence of this Spaniard with delicate feet and precise passing, Everton has the ability to organize offenses in a leisurely manner. In a sense, the rhythm of Everton and Southampton's midfielders is somewhat similar.

On Southampton's side, they shrunk their defense with peace of mind, and put up the fence first before talking about other things.

Yunfei stood in the midfield and glanced at Carsley next to him. Although this guy was always by his side, he felt that his attention was not on him. He subconsciously rushed out several times to fight for the ball.

"This guy dares to underestimate me!"

Yunfei felt a little upset. In the simulation, this guy couldn't defend himself with all his strength, so let alone this kind of defense that was in vain!

After playing countless games with Everton in the simulation, he is very aware of the weaknesses of these players, such as the one in front of him. Although the first kick is very fast, once the ball holder avoids his first kick, the opponent's reaction at this time will become extremely slow.

While thinking, the ball was passed from the backcourt.

As soon as Yunfei received the ball, Kasli leaned over immediately as expected, with his right foot half tackled and half stealing the ball, he fiercely stretched towards Yunfei's ball-holding foot.

Yun Fei, who has seen this set of opponents countless times in simulated training, left this strong man behind with a light pull of the ball under his feet!
"Opportunity! Yunfei easily got rid of the opponent's entanglement in the midfield!"

Yunfei didn't raise his head, and the situation on the field immediately appeared in his mind. Bell and Jones were rushing forward with tacit understanding on the two flanks. Bell was a little bit entangled by the full-backs, but Jones used his strong body to start.

Without hesitation, Yunfei directly took the ball and passed it to the right. Jones rushed into the room at a high speed, subconsciously looked up, and the ball landed right next to his left foot, allowing him to easily pad his left foot and remove the ball.

"Beautiful! Yunfei's passing has improved again!"

Jones secretly admired in his heart. At this time, Jones was already close to the penalty area, Fuller was firmly sandwiched between two central defenders in the penalty area, and Bell on the left had rushed into the penalty area!

"This ball, what choice will Jones make? Southampton's best chance so far! Pass the ball! He chose to pass the ball! Bell, who followed up from the left, started up again surprisingly, throwing off the opponent's defense!"

Bell was staring at the ball in front of him, his chest was heaving violently, the long-distance attack and the second acceleration put his body under a huge load, but Bell couldn't feel that at all, and only the ball was left in his eyes!
"Let me score the first goal of the new season!"

Bell yelled in his heart, stepped on the ground with his left foot, and slammed his right foot on the bottom of the ball. The huge inertia made Bell fly into the air the moment he shot the goal, and fell sideways from left to right!

Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard saw the ball flying, and subconsciously reached out to block it, but only felt a strong wind blowing to his face!
"The goal! The 9th minute of the game! Southampton's first shot of the season, and Bale's first shot of the season, scored! Southampton took the lead!"

The home fans were stunned for a while, unable to believe that their team had conceded the ball so quickly at home. After a short moment of astonishment, boos were everywhere!
As the team came to the away game, the Southampton fans celebrated loudly with excitement. Although in front of a large number of home fans, they were like boats struggling in the stormy waves, but they still persisted and were not overturned by the huge waves!
"Yay! I did it! I did it! Premier League goal!"

Bell came to the away game, the fans shouted loudly, his right hand kept patting his chest excitedly, his face was flushed, it was the dream of many young players to score in the Premier League, but Bell has already done it, in his first Premier League game!
