midfield god

Chapter 285 Jump to the fourth place in the league!

At this moment, Bentley felt that he was the prey being targeted by the hunter. He was powerless to forcibly break through the outside line that the opponent was holding on tightly, but he also understood that the seemingly empty inside line was not so empty.

After thinking about it again and again, Bentley gritted his teeth, and made a fake move to go outside, which made Cassel's movement slightly stagnant, and then slammed the ball into the inside!
Hughes, who had been waiting for his opponent to cut inside, his eyes lit up at this moment. Seeing that Bentley really chose to cut inside, he blocked Bentley without hesitation, and stretched out his foot at the same time, trying to poke the ball away.

This scene is like a movie, constantly reappearing in Bentley's mind. This is a scene he has imagined countless times. He has long thought about what will happen after he cuts in. Seeing Hughes blocking him, he immediately stepped on the ball, and his body suddenly turned 180 degrees.
Savage, who came up behind him, shot the ball angrily!

Suleman, who was supposed to be defending the middle, turned pale with fright at this time, and subconsciously turned his head to look at his own goal, only to see the goalkeeper Davis who was already leaping in the air at this time!

This shot was very sudden and the ball was very fast. When Davis saw Savage rushing up, he realized the opponent's intention and was ready.The moment the opponent shot, he suddenly threw himself in the direction the ball came from.

It can only be said that Davis, who was fully focused this time, saved the team. At the critical moment, his hand still reached the ball, changed the flight trajectory of the ball, and flew out of the baseline by rubbing against the crossbar.

Savage shook his head helplessly at this time, with unspeakable disappointment on his face, and Bentley on the side was speechless at this moment, he suddenly felt that this game might be more or less ominous!

Hughes was really a little angry at this time. Being deceived by his opponent in this way made him feel a little uncomfortable, so in the next time, he completely showed the state of entanglement with Yunfei for the whole game, and almost kept close to Bentley. After 10 minutes of hand-to-hand combat, Bentley was already out of breath and exhausted.

It’s like on the basketball court, you can’t keep shooting if you can shoot accurately, because there is a physical problem in it. Even if you are unguarded, if you keep exercising and shooting with high intensity, your shooting percentage will drop due to physical reasons.

It's the same with football, no matter how good you are, if you have to fight against a defensive player all the time, and you have to keep sprinting with the ball, it won't take too long for you to feel that your physical fitness is seriously overdrawn.

Bentley is in such a situation at this time. Facing Hughes' constant entanglement and his own repeated sprints on the wing, his physical fitness will drop rapidly. This is also Hughes' purpose. No matter how long you can run, how long can you last like this?

However, Hughes' idea of ​​completely exhausting Bentley was not realized in the end, because Southampton's offense quickly scored again.

Faced with the opponent's heavy pressure, Southampton got too many opportunities to counterattack. Yunfei squinted his eyes in the midfield with the ball, and saw three routes that could pass the ball forward. After thinking about it, Yunfei still gave the ball to the left.

Bell advanced quickly, completely throwing off the defensive player behind him, got the kick near the baseline and passed the ball very early, and then directly kicked the pass!

Jones in the middle saw the pass, and hurried forward, jumped up high, staggered his legs, and knocked the ball behind the inside of the heel of his left foot!
The ball was passed to the middle of the penalty area, and as soon as it landed, Rossi, who followed up, made a light rubbing shot!

With such a short distance and such a large arc, although goalkeeper Friedel tried his best to save the ball, he still failed to save the ball.

3: 1!

Southampton expanded their advantage at home!
This goal completely extinguished Blackburn's idea of ​​attacking away. Mark Hughes on the sidelines reluctantly signaled the team to retreat. Now, all they can do is not to concede the ball again.

Although Bentley tried hard to get rid of Hughes' entanglement on the field and tried hard to score a goal, but in the overall decline of the team, he alone was powerless.

In the end, Southampton won the game at home without any risk. After three consecutive games without a win, they finally won a victory.

After the game, Bentley and Yunfei exchanged jerseys.

Noticing that Bentley's mood was a bit depressed, Yunfei didn't know what to say, so he could only pat him on the shoulder to show comfort.

Bentley's performance in this game is obvious to all. Even if the team loses, he can definitely leave the stadium with his head held high.

Even so, Bentley is still not in a good mood, because he has already felt the gap between himself and Yunfei. This gap can only be felt so clearly when they have faced each other head-on.

After this game, Southampton took all three points and jumped to fourth place in the standings.This round of the game was unpopular, and many of the top seven teams lost. The result was that Southampton picked up a bargain and rose to fourth in the league.

Among these upsets, the biggest must be Arsenal's [-]-[-] loss to Bolton. Anelka broke out in his peak form against his former club, stabbing his former club twice in the heart with two goals.This not only allowed Bolton to return to the third place in the league, but also put Arsenal under pressure by one point.

At present, it seems that Anelka, who is in hot form this season, has once again attracted the attention of many wealthy teams. If he continues to perform like this, it is only a matter of time before he returns to the wealthy. However, his famous vampire agent still makes these teams somewhat daunting.

However, even if Arsenal broke such a big upset, it did not attract too many people's attention, because in this round of the game, Manchester United will face Chelsea at home. This is a six-point game.

In fact, from the point of view of the scene, Manchester United has an absolute advantage. On their home court, Manchester United can be said to be attacking with all their strength, and they have also gained. In the 29th minute of the first half, Luis Saha helped Manchester United take the lead at home.

But in the future, Manchester United was unable to expand the score, which gave Chelsea a chance to equalize the score. A corner kick in the second half and a header from central defender Carvalho helped Chelsea equalize the score. ,

In the end, the two teams shook hands and made a draw. This result was enough for Mourinho, but for Ferguson, failing to win the opponent at home was definitely missing a great opportunity to increase his points advantage.
