Chapter 10
"We'll equalize but keep your spirits up Harry! We're one and if we lose we'll lose together and people will remember your mistakes and more so our team's failures, But you know, you're not a loser, neither of us, I want to win, like we did in the youth team, one mistake, forget about him, let's win this game together!"

Li Mo put his arm around Harry Maguire's shoulder and said that he was actually a little speechless, but complaining at this time would only make things worse, and Maguire was still his friend, so he could only comfort him first. Guell can't play normally in this game, so it's useless for them to play well in the frontcourt.

After all, defense is the foundation of a team. Only by laying this foundation well can offense bring victory.

Maguire took a deep breath, and his confused eyes gradually came to his senses. It's not that a few words of persuasion from Li Mo can play such a big role. It was purely a sudden mistake that caused Maguire's brain to crash. , he is a smart person and knows how to regulate his emotions. He is obviously recovering now.

"You're right, Lee. Nervousness can only lead to bad results. It can't get any worse now. Don't worry, I know what to do. Trust me."

Maguire patted Li Mo on the shoulder, and then pushed Li Mo to the frontcourt, "Let's work together, I won't let them pass by me again, you also strive to score early, we must win Victory in this match!"

Chris Morgan stood aside. He was still a little worried at first, but now seeing that Maguire seemed to have returned to normal and showed fighting spirit, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Mo has always been the captain of the youth team. After Maguire came to the team, he was promoted to the U16 as the vice captain. Now it seems that the coach of the youth team makes sense. A leadership temperament that does not match their age, players with this quality do not have to worry that they will be defeated by mistakes.

Reading's celebration only lasted for a minute or two, and soon the players on both sides returned to their positions to wait for the kick-off. But he didn't show any anxiety or annoyance, he looked very calm, and Li Mo also stood at the kick-off point of the middle circle and clapped his hands and shouted loudly to his teammates, encouraging them.

After kick-off again, Sheffield United's formation slowly opened up, and Li Mo seemed to be more active, not limited to activities in the middle of the frontcourt. He retreated to the midfield from time to time to help the team move the ball, although he His passing ability value is not very high, but it is also above the average level of the British Championship. Thanks to his wide vision, he has also found several routes of the ball and successfully transferred them.

The Reading team originally wanted to continue attacking Maguire to see if they could reap miraculous effects, but Sheffield United now has almost five people in the middle of the field. They have fewer chances to get the ball and occasionally have a few long passes. They were all firmly grabbed by Maguire and pushed back.

Li Mo is very strong and strong in confrontation, but visually gives people a strong and flexible feeling. Maguire is on the contrary. He is already over 1.9 meters tall and has a wide body, especially the big head. When it hits the top, it gives people a strong sense of impact, and the Reading striker next to him seems to be a circle smaller in front of him.

If it weren't for that slightly immature face, almost no one would have thought that the boy who was fiercely fighting for the top at the moment was still underage.

Looking at the situation on the field, Speed ​​finally gradually let go of his concerns, and the tactical effect he wanted was slowly achieved.

Maguire's fight for the top made Reading's long pass almost impossible to fly to the threat area. If they go to the ground, when Sheffield United defends, there will be six players in the defensive third area. Montgomery, the midfielder in front of the defense line, is On the first barrier, behind Chris Morgan and Nosworthy are experienced, Maguire and Matthew Lorton are decisive and destructive, and apart from the previous mistake, Maguire's current performance is almost terrible. Called perfect, this line of defense is initially formed.

Stephen Quinn is also very experienced. He did not have too much entanglement with the Reading team in the midfield. Made several threatening passes.

But the problem also lies here. Li Mo has seen a lot of excellent center forwards in his previous life, especially Ibrahimovic and Kane who later transformed. It is reasonable, with more opportunities, the probability of scoring will naturally increase greatly, but the current Sheffield United has no reliable scoring points except him.

After Kane withdraws, there will be Sun Xingmin in front of him, and after Ibrahimovic withdraws, there will be reliable young players in front of him, but Li Mo has Ched Evans in front of him, and there is another one who occasionally inserts Jamie Ward, these two are not very efficient shooters. Li Mo can't help but see that Ched Evans finally received a ball from him, but finally hit the plane under the interference of the Reading defender. I picked my head.

He's only 17, he just wants to play reasonably, what's wrong with him
No way, or only on their own.

Li Mo stood almost on a parallel line with Ched Evans according to his training position before, but his position was a little behind. He started to get close to Reading's full-backs, and he didn't go forward or look for space. , running without the ball just in front of the full-back.

Seeing this, the central defenders of the Reading team stopped pasting them to prevent them from losing their positions. Before the game, the coach asked them to pay more attention to Li Mo's running. Their full-backs ran and saw no forward move, so he naturally stopped paying too much attention.

Andy Taylor on the left of Sheffield United has limited offensive ability, and now his main energy is on the defensive end. Therefore, Stephen Quinn chooses to launch from the right side more for wing attack.

Matthew Lorton got a lot of chances to go forward in this game. Although he hasn't played right back for a long time, after adapting for a while, he has the same sense of fun as he used to play full back in the youth team.

Because of his tough defense and good physical fitness, he later switched to playing as a central defender, but he still had the drive to go forward, so when he played as a central defender, he was scolded by the coach many times for going forward, but Speed ​​liked him. This trait allowed him to liberate his nature.

After Matthew Lorton took the ball again, he quickly dribbled the ball across the half. At this moment, Jamie Ward approached him to respond, but Matthew Lorton watched the opening of the Reading midfielder approaching Jamie Ward. Lie down the ball on the wing and choose a hard break.

His speed is relatively fast, and his body is also strong. The midfielder of the Reading team who stepped forward to intercept was almost smashed away by him. Although he himself was squeezed out of the sideline, the football was still running forward. Xiuluoton adjusted his body shape and ran forward from the sideline, but it was too late for Reading's midfielder to intercept again at this time.

On the field at the moment, Matthew Lorton continued to dribble the ball down. In the middle of the pitch, Reading's midfielder was quickly returning to defense. Jamie Ward and Stephen Quinn ran to respond, while Ched Evans had already raised Hand, and a central defender of the Reading team got entangled together, only Li Mo started to run towards the restricted area of ​​the Reading team unhurriedly.

But he did not run directly to the hinterland of Reading's penalty area like ordinary forwards, waiting for a pass. Instead, he ran next to Reading's full-back, which caused Reading's full-back to fall into a dilemma. Li Mo was walking next to him, and in front of him, Matthew Lorton was slowly pushing forward with the ball. He was about to reach the crossing area, but he could only follow back, not daring to Grab on.

Reading's central defender was even more aggrieved, Li Mo didn't run to the middle!If Li Mo ran to the center, he and the full-backs would be able to attack directly, but in this situation, he can only watch Jamie Ward who has already attacked, and gradually, the distance between him and his full-backs will be widened. It took a lot of space.

Li Mo didn't seem to see this space to go forward. He was still sticking to the full back of the Reading team. When he was approaching the edge of the penalty area, he suddenly slowed down, as if he paused. At this moment, the Reading team The central defender lightly pushed Jamie Ward who was leaning in front of him, and his figure seemed to be delayed for a second. Li Mo suddenly pointed his finger forward, and then resolutely pushed forward, passing the front The space between Reading's centre-back and full-back.

Matthew Lorton has been observing Li Mo's running position. When he saw Li Mo's finger pointing forward, he naturally would not miss this opportunity. He passed by quickly, he had no time to put a shovel to intercept, so he could only look back, and saw a figure wearing number 17 quickly received the ball and entered the penalty area!
Speed ​​had already left the coaching bench when Matthew Lorton made a strong breakthrough. At this moment, he was standing on the sidelines, watching Li Mo successfully receive the ball and enter the Reading penalty area. He couldn't help but clenched his fists. Breathing, not even daring to take a breath, like him, there are countless Sheffield United fans in the stands at the moment. After exclaiming, they all covered their mouths, for fear that their voices would affect Li Mo's choose.

After Li Mo got the ball, he raised his head and took a quick look at the goal. To be honest, the angle of the ball was not good. The central defender of the Reading team also gave up on Jamie Ward at this moment, and quickly rushed towards him. The Reading goalkeeper in front of the goal He didn't intend to attack, and almost blocked the near corner of the goal.

If he passes the inverted triangle at this moment, Jamie Ward may get a good shot, but for a center, after entering the penalty area, all angles are options for them to shoot. If they don’t even have this confidence , what kind of center forward? !

Li Mo adjusted the pace of his feet, and the central defender of the Reading team decisively shoveled. He didn't know if he could get the ball, but this was the only way he could choose. After adjusting a step, he did not choose to volley with his right foot to the far corner of the goal. Instead, he rubbed the outer instep of his right foot in an arc. After completing the shooting action, he jumped up lightly, avoiding the tackle of Reading's central defender .

The goalkeeper of the Reading team went to the ground quickly. He bet that Li Mo would hit the close corner, but after seeing Li Mo shoot with the outside of his instep, he could only extend his hand as far as possible in desperation, trying to interfere with the football, but In the end, he didn't touch anything. He looked back, and the football had already drawn a wonderful small arc and hit the net lightly!

Li Mo, scored consecutively!
