I am the king of football

Chapter 141: Raging Anger
The short halftime break was over. Compared to Adkins' crazy roar in his own locker room, the players in the Hull City locker room were simply reminded of the team's tactics by Bruce again.

"We have secured a one-goal advantage. The opponent will definitely try to push out and attack in the second half. The defense will be under great pressure. When necessary, Cavelli and Kupa will pull back to defend."

"Understand coach!"

"We have done everything we can to keep the ball under control. I believe you can do it."

"learn!"

After the brief speech, the rest of the time was left to the Hull City players to deal with on their own. Everyone took this opportunity to drink water and discuss cooperation on the field with their teammates. In short, the atmosphere became a little more relaxed.

However, when the staff knocked on the locker room door again to signal the team that they could go out, everyone strode out again with a heroic and high-spirited attitude.

"Hello, dear audience, both teams have returned to the court and the second half will begin soon."

When the camera returned to Kingston Communications Arena, Zhan Jun and more than 30,000 fans were already ready. From the moment the two teams walked out of the player tunnel again, the cheers from the entire stadium never stopped.

Saints striker Lambert came to the starting line-up with the ball, and the red-clad Southampton team will take the lead in the second half.

“Sh ...

The whistle sounded and the game started again.

"Southampton started to control the ball. Oh, their formation changed in the second half. Both Pencheyon and Lallana, who were on the left and right wingers, moved forward a lot. The Saints changed to a 4123 formation."

This is an adjustment that is not surprising. A team that plays 0 when losing 1-451 is a team that does not want to win at all. Obviously, Adkins and his disciples are not willing to lose.

Such a change in formation naturally made the Saints' attack after the kick-off appear very fierce, but Bruce had already reminded his disciples in advance that Hull City did not disperse its formation at all after the game resumed, and the four midfielders became the biggest obstacle for Southampton to move forward.

"Paul tackled Schneiderlin! The referee gave him a verbal warning."

In the 49th minute of the game, the defensive midfielder of Tiger City shouted a big stop to the opponent. Schneiderlin, who had just missed Colen, climbed up from the ground with a depressed look on his face.

"It was a very standard tactical foul. Paul didn't mean to go for the person. His goal was to block the opponent's coherent conduction. Now it seems that he did it."

As Schneiderlin kicked the ball out, Lambert, who wanted to get the ball with his back in the frontcourt, missed the best landing point due to Maguire's head-on attack. The alert Coulson on the side quickly attacked and intercepted the ball.

Less than five minutes after the kick-off, the ball changed hands again.

Fortunately, Adkins seemed to have anticipated that it would be difficult for the team to control the ball for a long time, and in his defensive arrangements, he ordered the team's four defenders to stay in their own half.

This made Hull City's subsequent attack not so smooth. First, Coulson made a precise long pass to find Cooper who was running forward on the right. Then Cooper kicked the ball back to Kane who was waiting in the middle without stopping.

When Kane passed the ball forward, Qin Hu, who was running at a fast speed, encountered a huge obstacle. Wilder and Fox chose to close the door and block Qin Hu, pulling and knocking him to the ground.

"It's a foul, a tactical foul as well. The defenses of both teams were very daring in their moves after the start of the first half, which made the game more tense." The home team fans in the stands began to boo loudly, but the referee still did not take out a card. In his opinion, Qin Hu was not able to touch the ball, and a tactical foul without the ball was not enough to warrant a card.

This made Wilder and Fox quite excited. They seemed to have found the trick to defend Qin Hu. Hoyveld even roared at him when Qin Hu got up.

"Boy, you won't have any chance in the second half!!!"

"Damn it, ugh!"

Qin Hu spat out the grass debris in his mouth and was so angry that he spoke in his hometown dialect. He strode towards Wilder's position. His face was full of murderous intent and his burly figure made him look very imposing. Wilder, who was standing in place, turned pale in an instant.

"Referee! Referee!"

Just as he was calling for the referee, Qin Hu walked past him without blinking his eyes. This action made Wilder, who had just established himself as a tough guy who was not afraid of the opposing forward, very embarrassed.

It’s not that I couldn’t hold on, but the opponent’s Chinese striker was too terrifying in terms of momentum.

Afterwards, Colen took an indirect free kick and the ball flew from the midfield to the Southampton penalty area. Qin Hu jumped high and headed the ball, but the header still failed to hit the right angle and flew out of the baseline.

At this moment, the second half of the game had only been going on for more than ten minutes. It was obvious that after halftime of testing and competition, both sides began to exert their strength in the second half.

As time went by, Southampton began to show the level of several strong players in their team after changing their formation, and Lambert also began to get frequent shooting opportunities.

In the 64th minute of the game, Lallana broke through on the left and then made a successful cross. Lambert shot the ball. If it weren't for Gulas's perfect dive save, everything would have become perfect in the eyes of Southampton people.

Unfortunately, the ball didn't go in. Before Lambert could feel upset, Gulas had already kicked the ball out in front of him. Collen, who had already sprinted forward, successfully received the ball, and Hull City launched their counterattack again.

This time, there were no gaps in the Saints' defense. The four defenders stayed in their own half in an orderly manner, and the midfielder rushed to Colen who was dribbling the ball at the first opportunity.

No matter how you look at it, they will definitely be able to defend against the opponent's attack this time. Even Zhan Jun and countless home fans in the stands did not expect the team to be able to achieve success directly in this charge.

As long as we can control the ball and then take our time, everything will be fine. This is what everyone thinks.

"Colomb forced a pass, but the ball lacked power due to interference, so Kane had to pull back to get the ball, but Fonte was following closely behind him, and the Saints players who were chasing back were about to arrive!"

It happened in a flash. Facing the incoming ball, Kane had no time to turn around. He could only face the rolling ball based on the direction of Qin Hu's running position he remembered, turn sideways, and kick it away.

"A long diagonal pass. The target of the pass is, Qin Hu?"
