Chapter 528 Opening the Door to Victory (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Bruce O'Neill was sitting on the coach seat.

Although his team is being besieged by Aston Villa, however, he is not panicking.

Similar scenes have appeared many times in the first half of the game.

Aston Villa is not good at tough battles.

In the face of dense defense, this team doesn't have many options.

Deisler got the ball in the middle.

Aston Villa back and forth in front of Sunderland's penalty area, however, failed to find a suitable attacking path.

Diego Costa came out to respond.

Deisler passed the football to him.

"Costa had the ball outside the box and as a centre-forward, he didn't stay in front of the goal, he pulled it out," Lineker said.

In today's game, Fang Jue made an appropriate rotation for the team.

He is already preparing for the next devil's schedule.

Because it is expected that Sunderland will adopt a relatively conservative strategy.

Therefore, Fang Jue arranged for Diego Costa, who has a stronger running ability, to start today.

His strike partner is Abanglaho.

In order to tear apart Sunderland's defense, Fang Jue asked the offensive players in the frontcourt to keep running, looking for opportunities, and interspersed back and forth.

Costa is better than Van Nistelrooy at this job.

This time, Costa once again pulled outside the penalty area.

Sunderland's centre-back Anton Ferdinand rushed out to build a line of defense on the penalty area line.

Anton Ferdinand is the younger brother of Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand.

Diego Costa has the ball and he makes a pass.

Anton Ferdinand puts his foot out to intercept.

Fake action.

Diego Costa suddenly made a move to break through.

Anton Ferdinand came up to entangle the opponent.

He thought he could squeeze away Diego Costa with his excellent physical fitness and steal the ball.

However, Anton Ferdinand quickly realized the difficulty of his opponent.

"This guy is really good at protecting the ball."

Diego Costa catches Anton Ferdinand.

The latter tried to steal the ball twice to no avail.

Suddenly, Diego Costa tried to turn around forcefully.

Anton Ferdinand quickly moved his body to intercept.

Costa pulled his body back and twisted his butt to the other side.

Ferdinand was pushed away by the hip-twisting motion.

Sunderland full-back Collins hurried over to defend.

Diego Costa was waiting for this opportunity.

Diego Costa passes the ball before Collins and Anton Ferdinand's closing stroke.

He stuffed the football through the gap between the two men's double-team defense.

"Beautiful through ball!"

"Deisler!"

Deisler received the ball on the right. He did not choose to continue to break through with the ball or shoot, but directly took the football to the left of the penalty area.

"Abang Raho!"

Sunderland's defensive attention was attracted by Diego Costa's penetrating pass and Deisler who got the ball.

Everyone thought that Deisler would choose to dribble the ball directly into the penalty area, or choose to shoot.

No one thought that he would pass from the right to the left.

A football passed the goal.

Abang Lahor suddenly advanced, passed through Sunderland's entire defense line, and appeared behind them.

"Abang Lahuo! Onside!!" The commentator John Mortensen shouted at the top of his lungs.

The sky above the Stadium of Light suddenly booed loudly.

Sunderland fans put pressure on Abanglaho who got a one-handed chance in this way:

Rumor has it that this kid's shooting skills are average...

Abang Lahuo, who succeeded in anti-offside, was very excited.

He knew this was his chance.

With Beckham joining the team, Abanglaho has a strong sense of crisis.

Because of the existence of Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has a tacit understanding with Beckham, will almost lock in a starting forward spot.

In the match against Manchester United, the partnership between Diego Costa and Ruud van Nistelrooy was impressive, and the media praised it.

Also on the bench are the veteran Heskey and Sadio Mane, a young player brought by the coach from Ibiza.

Abang Lahuo's sense of crisis suddenly increased a lot.

He pays extra attention to every scoring opportunity now.

Because of the devil's schedule, the head coach rotated the team lineup, and he got the chance to start today.

Abanglahuo is full of fighting spirit. He wants to prove that the head coach made the right decision to start him as a striker, and he wants to prove that he is worthy of starting.

In the face of the attacking Sunderland goalkeeper Flop, Abanglahor showed admirable calm.

He didn't look back.

Without hesitation.

Shoot directly into the far corner.

He rubs the shot with the outside instep.

The football draws an arc and goes around the left hand side of the attacking Sunderland goalkeeper Flop.

Flop had nothing to do with such a close and decisive shot.

He can only hope now that Abanglahor's shooting level is relatively poor as rumored.

Then, he heard cheers.

Behind the goal on this side is the stand where the Aston Villa fans sit.

The Sunderland goalkeeper felt a chill, he knew it was over.

"Goooooooooooooooooal!"

The football was almost attached to the inside of the far post and spun into the goal!

"Abanglaho! Abanglaho! Abanglaho! He scored, Aston Villa scored, one to zero! They took the lead!!"

"Beautiful!! Abanglaho's shot! Aston Villa took a goal lead!"

"The key goal, facing a densely defended team, the first goal is the most critical, it is the goal that breaks the deadlock."

"One to zero, this goal means that Sunderland's defensive tactics have failed. They are now behind in the score, and there is no point in retracting the defense. Once Sunderland presses out, this will mean for them. It's more trouble because Aston Villa are one of the teams that are best at counter-attacking quickly."

The Sunderland players obviously thought of this too, so at this moment, the Sunderland players looked very frustrated, standing on the field and watching the Aston Villas celebrating in a daze.

...

Abanglaho, who scored the goal, opened his arms and ran to the fans' stands of the visiting team. He waved his fists towards the stands to celebrate.

In the camera, Aston Villa fans rushed forward like a tide, celebrating excitedly.

"Come on! Vera people!"

The fans are shouting.

Aston Villa's nickname is 'Villa people'.

In the stadium, other Aston Villa players also gathered around Abanglaho to celebrate together.

The goal was too timely and crucial.

It's like piercing that layer of window paper.

This will be the goal that opens the door to victory.

...

On the sidelines, Fang Jue got up from his seat. He just clapped his hands, and then stood there looking at the stadium.

Instead of celebrating, he told his players this way:

Just one ball does not satisfy him.
