Chapter 166 Finally... Won

During halftime, the home team locker room.

Coach Klopp had a smile on his face, as if he didn't care what happened in the first half.He tapped Arnold on the shoulder.

"Boys, I can't see where your passion is in today's game. Do you have to score at the buzzer?"

After speaking, the players all laughed.

"Arnold, don't blame yourself. The goal in the first half was a ball of luck, so don't worry too much. I won't replace you, so cheer me up in the second half. Zaha, who defended the opponent, won the game. You know, in the FA Cup match on the 3rd, Arsenal and Crystal Palace were also 1:1 in the first half, and Arsenal won in the end. Are we older than the Gunners?"

The average age of the Arsenal team ranks third in the Premier League, so Klopp's use of this to talk about it is actually encouraging the players in disguise.

After coach Klopp's enlightenment, Arnold, who was still anxious before, became active again. You must know that in fact, he is indeed responsible for the first goal conceded.Fortunately, the head coach didn't pursue the responsibility, so the matter just passed.

Visiting team locker room.

Wu Haowen said to everyone with a serious face.

"Today is my first game in charge of the Premier League, so I don't want to lose. Similarly, if we lose today, we will be getting closer and closer to the British Championship. But, I don't think everyone wants to go to the British Championship. Is there a league that is more powerful than the Premier League?"

Everyone in the locker room listened to Wu Haowen's words, but no one stopped what they were doing, listened carefully, and took it seriously.Except for 3 young players.

"Okay! Since everyone is used to losing, let's be more casual. Anyway, today's game will definitely win, so you can do your part if you want to participate. If you don't want to be active, I will use the winter window to send you out."

At this moment, Tomkins stood up.

"Win the shit! You're a clown. Can you play football? You think playing football is just talking."

The locker room suddenly fell silent, and everyone was stunned by this scene.

Dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, but such a provocation of the authority of the head coach basically has no good end.You know, Wu Haowen has just signed a two-year contract with the team. Unless he is relegated, he will be the owner of Crystal Palace for two years.

Wu Haowen's face froze, this was the first time someone took the initiative to provoke trouble, and just when he was about to scold him, Xiao Ai gave a reminder.

It turned out that Tomkins and Barisic were good friends.Today's reception did not send Barisic to the field, and Tomkins, as a good friend, complained about it.In his view, the game without Barisic will undoubtedly be lost.

"I'm sorry that our team still has such a situation. It seems that we don't know much about it. But I don't think you have this chance. Well, let me talk about how to win in the second half!"

Everyone was stunned. Just now they thought that the head coach would have a fight with Tomkins. Who knew that this guy would just say a few words and pass.

Wait, what did he just say?How to win?

"In the second half, Firmino will score a goal first, and then we will be passive. But, dear players, it doesn't matter. Give them a few minutes to be proud. Because soon, our new teammates will shine. As for who, I will not say who it is, and give the three new players a chance to perform."

Wu Haowen didn't wait for them to react, and directly stated the approximate scoring situation in the second half.Here, it is also to give them hope, and it is also an opportunity to establish authority.

"Even if one of these three kids scores a goal, it's only 2:2. Where did they win the game?" Defender Bisaka suddenly realized something.

"Did I say that one of the three of them will score one goal? No, they will score two goals. The victory in the second half depends on them!" Wu Haowen looked at the three of them with a smile.

Russell, Streeter, and Watson looked at each other, not believing that they would score in the second half and help the team win.

Wu Haowen patted them on the shoulder, and said patiently: "Remember what I told you this morning, remember them well, and then bring them to the field, and reward the team with goals in the second half!"

……

The second half just started, and sure enough Firmino scored.

In the 48th minute of the game, Firmino received a pass from his teammate Glade, and blasted the goal from a distance of 28 meters from the outside of the penalty area, directly breaking the goal.

Liverpool 2:1 Crystal Palace.Anfield is boiling again, this is a world wave, will be one of the best goals of the month.

The players of the Crystal Palace team were shocked!

Not shocked by the world wave, but shocked by the words of the head coach during the intermission!

He could predict that Firmino would score in the second half, so... will we really win today?

Almost everyone has come to believe this view.

So, after Liverpool scored in the second half, Crystal Palace completely changed.Even the fans in the stands clearly felt the difference.

"They seem to be more active? Why is that?" A diehard Liverpool fan asked his companion.

His companion shook his head.

"Never mind him, we're going to win anyway!"

……

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Strebinger is of course among the most surprised.After Wu Haowen said that Firmino would score in the second half, he was very concerned about Firmino's every move. He even didn't pay attention to other people touching the ball at the beginning of the game, only concerned about Firmino.

However, this world wave made him completely helpless.But at the same time, it also made him very convinced of the head coach Wu Haowen.

The coach can guess who scored the goal!so amazing!It seems that today's game is going to be interesting, which makes him more convinced that he will win tonight.

Likewise, the rest of Crystal Palace's players are of the same mind as Strebinger.

Come on!
The game was very dramatic!Obviously Liverpool scored the goal, but everyone seems to feel that the Crystal Palace players are a little...happy?
Yes, and they're more aggressive too.Obviously it was the second half when the physical fitness declined, but it was more active than the first half.

In the 53rd minute of the game, Crystal Palace won a free kick in the frontcourt.The location is very good, at the corner of the restricted area on the right.The teenager Watson came to take the penalty.

I saw him charge up and kick a powerful curve ball, fly over the wall and go straight to the right goal.

It's a pity that Liverpool goalkeeper Becker had predicted the direction of the ball in advance, and stood there waiting for the ball the moment he touched the ball and kicked it.When the ball flew, he jumped lightly and wanted to catch it with his hands.

Huh!Becker didn't even hug the ball, and the ball bounced back from his hand.

At this time, Russell quickly rushed to the point where the ball fell, and kicked it to the left goal without hesitation.

Although Becker made a save, he still had some distance and did not stop the ball.Crystal Palace even tied Liverpool 2:2.

Everyone was stunned.

But the game isn't over yet.

In the 77th minute, Zaha took the ball forward in the midfield and passed the ball to Russell on the left.Russell has a good vision, saw Streeter on the left unmarked, and immediately passed the ball with a big foot.

Street immediately dribbled the ball into the penalty area from the left and quickly ran to the middle of the goal.

Goalkeeper Becker abandoned the goal and went to meet Streeter. Gomez also quickly returned to the defense from the middle.

But Streeter remembered what Wu Haowen told him. If he wants to score a goal, he must kick the ball to the right between the goalkeeper and the player with the slider.

So Strait did it!

The ball is in!
Crystal Palace lead Liverpool 3:2.

If this ball is actually a single defense, it's really hard to say.But the problem was Gomez's sliding tackle, which slowed down Becker and gave Streeter a good attacking vision.

Next, Wu Haowen replaced two defensive players and played steadily.After the players of the Crystal Palace team saw the overtake score, their desire to win made them more active and fierce than usual.

In the end, the score was kept until the end.

Captain Milivojevic couldn't help feeling:
Finally... won!
