Chapter 4 The Show of Genius
"Be careful with that oriental boy, he is strong and fast, don't be careless."
Taking advantage of the dead ball, Bitvin pointed to Li Mo who was on the striker line, covered his mouth and said to his midfielder.
He suffered from Li Mo, so naturally he didn't want the backcourt players to stumble on Li Mo. Nearly 10 minutes had passed in the second half, and the most important thing was to keep the score and take all three points.
The midfielder of Bristol City nodded to show that he understood. He saw how Li Mo fought with Bitvin at a close distance, and sent a message to the back to make the defense behind pay attention.
But the substitutions on the sidelines didn't take much time. Soon, the players of Bristol City threw the ball out of bounds, and Bitvin didn't know how the message would work, so he had to return to his position.
And Li Mo was already standing in the half of Bristol City, watching the offense and defense still happening in the half of Sheffield United at this time, and began to move horizontally with the direction of the football.
Due to the change in tactics, Bristol City's offensive intensity is naturally much lower than when the second half kicked off, while Sheffield United only lost one forward, and the four midfielders were not affected. At this time, they also began to try to regain the midfield position .
Sheffield United's defensive midfielder Montgomery and central midfielder Stephen Quinn both played in the Premier League with Sheffield United a few years ago. Although they were relegated back to the British Championship later, their strength should not be underestimated.
This pair of old partners who have worked together for five years quickly helped the team stabilize the situation.
But the players of Bristol City saw that the midfielder was out of control, and they were single. Except for forward Bitvin who was still waiting to steal chickens in the Sheffield United half, the rest of them almost retreated to their own half.
After Stephen Quinn dribbled the ball past halftime, he raised his eyes and observed, and found that apart from the two full-backs, there was only one Li Mo at the front.
If it is a normal offensive mode, he can choose to divide the ball at this time and let the full-back take the ball to try to see if there is a chance to break through. If it is difficult to break through, he can also pass the ball to the full-back.
But because one person was sent off in the first half, the two full-backs of Sheffield United obviously did not dare to step in easily at this moment. If they were hit by another counterattack, it would almost announce the death penalty for Sheffield United.
Li Mo suddenly raised his hand at this time, signaling Stephen Quinn to pass the ball, but behind him were players from Bristol City, which made Stephen Quinn hesitate.
Li Mo still signaled to pass the ball, Stephen Quinn saw this, but he didn't have a good choice, so he passed the fast ball forward.
Li Mo retreated two or three steps, received the football, turned around, and looked at the situation in front of him.
It is not a good idea to break through the middle. At this time, the space in the middle of Bristol City is almost blocked. Li Mo just tried it. After squeezing a midfielder of Bristol City with his body, he distributed the ball to sidewalk.
After receiving the ball, Sheffield United's full-back looked at the full-back of Bristol City in front of him and the defensive midfielder next to him. He had no choice but to pass the ball back.
Steve Quinn tried again in the middle, playing with other teammates.But the players of Bristol City were unmoved, and seemed to have made up their minds to keep the advantages of these two balls and no longer press forward to attack.
During this period, Li Mo also received the ball several times, but he always chose to pass the ball back to Stephen Quinn in a transitional manner, or pass the football to the wing.
It seems to be playing reasonably, but it also makes people feel a little disappointed.
Compared to his performance at the back line, Li Mo's position at the center seems a bit too reasonable, and sometimes being reasonable means mediocrity.
However, his physical fitness is also fully displayed. If he takes the ball 1-on-1, he can basically control the ball.
This made the defenders of Bristol City uncomfortable, but also relieved.
It's just that if their physical fitness is top-notch, even if they can't grab the ball alone, they can interfere as much as possible to prevent Li Mo from turning around easily. Moreover, they have enough midfielders and can choose to flank Li Mo.
It seems that this game is the result.
Gradually, the two defensive players around Li Mo were reduced to one.
Li Mo didn't seem to notice such a change, and he was still running in front of the Bristol city's defense line.
It's just that for some reason, he changed to a defender to fight for a while, and raised his hand to ask for the ball from time to time. Although there was no good effect, he never tired of it.
The time of the game was approaching the 70th minute, and Speed seemed a little anxious on the sidelines.
It's not that he was disappointed with Li Mo. After all, Li Mo was the center forward, and the two full-backs were also separated by Bristol City's midfielder. It was almost impossible to cooperate with Li Mo.
Li Mo was able to use his physical fitness to control the ball, and it was already very good to pass it to the wing smoothly.
Maybe it was still the unyielding energy in his bones, which made Speed still have a little hope in his heart, but there were only 20 minutes left in the time, and if the offense still didn't improve, Speed began to consider whether to put all his eggs in one basket , and another forward?
Stephen Quinn began to play high balls frequently, but the two full-backs did not have much advantage in terms of speed. They made many assaults to no avail. Although Li Mo fought for the ball a few times, he could not form a good team in the end. offensive opportunity.
Just when Stephen Quinn felt a little helpless, Li Mo suddenly leaned on the full-back behind him.He raised his hand high, signaling Stephen Quinn to hang the ball over, his expression was very determined, Stephen Quinn saw this, and passed a high-altitude ball towards Li Mo.
Li Mo opened his hands slightly and jumped high to meet the incoming ball, but stopped the ball firmly with his chest. Behind him was the right back of Bristol City.Knowing that he couldn't compete with Li Mo, he squeezed Li Mo out.
But different from the previous few times, after Li Mo got the ball this time, he didn't pass the ball to the side or pass it back. Instead, he turned around resolutely.
But the full-backs of Bristol City, before they even made a move to pull Li Mo's clothes, were left behind by Li Mo as if they were being crushed.
Seeing this, the midfielder of Bristol City on the side quickly ran towards Li Mo with a menacing look, as if the next moment Li Mo still chooses to dribble forward, he will make a fierce defensive move.
Ordinary players would not bet on their own health at this time, but Li Mo lowered his shoulders slightly, as if he wanted to distribute the ball to the winger on the wing.
But in the next second, I saw him lightly poke the ball with his toes.The football just passed between the legs of Bristol City's midfielder, Li Mo also accelerated again, and ran across the left hand side of Bristol City's midfielder in an instant.
"Strike! Nice ball pass! Lee seems to remember that he is still a 17-year-old player, and his bold attempts are amazing! Forget about reasonable, uninnovative passing choices, this is A Sheffield United genius should have performed!"
The commentator seemed to be amazed by Li Mo's extraordinary beauty this time, and praised him full of praise.
But at this time, the audience on the sidelines and in front of the TV did not pay attention to the voice of the commentary anymore, because after Li Mo passed the midfielder, he would directly face the central defender of Bristol City!
This is Sheffield United's best chance to attack in this game. What will Li Mo choose to do?Continue to dribble or just come and shoot?
Almost everyone on the field focused on Li Mo dribbling the ball at high speed. Facing the attacking Bristol City centre-back, Li Mo slowed down a little and his dribbling rhythm changed. It looks like he wants to try again.
The central defender of Bristol City didn't think much about it. Now that Li Mo has not entered the penalty area, he can choose to use a less violent foul to interrupt Li Mo's offensive, even if it is a penalty for Sheffield United. Setting the ball is better than letting Li Mo dribble the ball and have a chance to shoot!
The figures of the two were getting closer and closer, and Li Mo stepped on his bicycle. His tall figure showed very good flexibility at this time, and his bicycle movements were beautiful.
But when everyone was guessing which direction Li Mo would make a breakthrough from next, he suddenly raised his foot and stuffed the ball to the wide area on the right!
The football passed in front of the two central defenders to the right, and at this time, another central defender of Bristol City noticed that Stephen Quinn had already inserted at high speed from the right and entered the penalty area. Another full-back from Risto City chased back in a panic!
The pass given by Li Mo was just right. Stephen Quinn was left with only the goalkeeper in front of him. He took the ball and took advantage of the situation to complete the shot. The goalkeeper of Bristol City had no time to react and could only watch helplessly. Kick into the far corner of the goal!
The net seemed to be splashed with water, and at this moment, countless Sheffield United fans who were guarding in front of the TV also cheered with the passionate goal of the commentator.
But Li Mo, who led this attack, did not run to Stephen Quinn to celebrate at this moment. Instead, he rushed forward to the goal of Bristol City, picked up the football on the turf, and ran firmly to the midfield.
He waved his arms and signaled his teammates to get back to their positions. They still have time, and scoring this goal is far from enough.
Everyone is talking about becoming famous with one goal, but Li Mo only assisted once, but he hasn't scored yet!
