Chapter 114 tops the list

Knowing the opponent in the final made Gao Bo feel at ease.

How to deal with Liverpool? Gao Bo didn't have time to think about it now, because what was coming immediately was the most crucial game in the league.

On April 23, in the 43rd round of the Second Division, Luton Town will face Wycombe Rovers at home!

Luton fans and players are quite confident in this game, and even Gao Bo is full of confidence.

However, the result of the first half of this game made Gao Bo's face darken.

In the final moments of the first half, Wycombe Rovers found the back of the net with a direct free-kick from Claude's handle, giving them a 1-0 lead away from Luton!

The result left the Wycombe Rovers players ecstatic, with Wycombe manager Peter Taylor even rushing onto the pitch to celebrate, being shown a yellow card...

At halftime, Gao Bo's face was gloomy: "Do you think we won the league championship?" ”

"We're not getting anything right now!! If you play so carelessly as in the first half, the league champion?! The league championship is slipping away from your eyes!! ”

Gao Bo almost slapped the table and yelled.

The ease on the players' faces is gone, and despite Wycombe being the top team in the second division, the Luton players don't take them too seriously - after all, they have beaten several teams in the Premier League, let alone the Championship, so they look a little unmotivated when playing against their opponents in the second division.

After being sprayed by Gao Bo at halftime, the players also realized that if this game was lost, the league championship in hand really had the possibility of flying away...

When the players walked out of the dressing room with serious expressions, John leaned over and said: "The schedule has been too busy lately, and the players' fitness may be in some condition. ”

Gao Bo nodded: "I know that, John, but even if you are a little tired, you shouldn't show such an attitude when facing Wycombe, we can't lose a game in the next league!" ”

John also nodded, even if they won against Wycombe Wanderers, Luton was only one point ahead of the opponent, and it was not time to relax.

"The good thing is that the FA Cup is on May 20, so we have 10 days to prepare."

Gao Bo nodded, if there is any advantage for Luton in the FA Cup final, that is, the last round of the second division is on May 10, and at that time the Premier League is still in full swing, and Liverpool still has to fight for their league title, so compared to Luton, who can rest for ten days, Liverpool has much less rest time than Luton - three days before the FA Cup match on May 20, Liverpool will also challenge West Bromwich Albion away, which is the 37th round of the Premier League, If Liverpool retain their league title hopes, they will be giving their all in this game.

The denser Liverpool's schedule is relative to Luton, the more tired their players become, which is undoubtedly a good thing for Luton.

However, in the next ten days, Gao Bo does not plan to focus on preparing for the game with Liverpool, the champion of the second division Gao Bo attaches great importance to this championship, and he will never allow this championship to be left behind!

So in the next period of time, Gao Bo asked the whole team to forget about the FA Cup for the time being, and first go all out to deal with the next games of the second division!

As soon as the second half began, Luton launched a frantic attack on Wycombe Wanderers!

Wycombe Wanderers are also ready to defend away from home, with in fact their head coach Peter Taylor making a big overhaul of Wycombe formation for this game.

Five defenders, four defensive midfielders, and only one fast striker in front!

It was a complete counter-attack, completely abandoning the midfield and putting two tight directions in the box, allowing Luton to continue to besiege on the perimeter.

Under this kind of dense defense, Luton Town is actually not good at attacking this kind of positional warfare.

Is there a way to win positional warfare?

Long-range shots may be an option, but in addition to strengthening his team's long-range shots, Gobo is also ready to bring Adam on the pitch and increase his dribble to create a threat.

In the 60th minute of the game, Gao Bo replaced Adam and replaced Lewis, and the team's formation changed to 433, Kevin Keane shrank to the middle, and formed a double midfield with Drinkwater and Kante, while Adam was pushed to the front line, forming a front three with Vardy and Charlie Austin.

Adam's presence largely disrupted the Wycombe Rovers' defensive formation, and they had to move to the left frequently in the face of Adam's dribbling breakthrough on the flank.

But the real killer move wasn't on Adam's side.

In the 69th minute, when the Wycombe Rovers' formation moved closer to Adam's attacking side, Drinkwater shifted the ball laterally to the right on the left flank.

Kevin Keane shoots from an unguarded situation!

The ball bounced through the dense crowd in the penalty area, hit the underside of the crossbar and bounced into the net!

One-to-one!! Luton equalised!

The scoreline clearly did not satisfy Luton as they continued to press for the rest of the day.

Wycombe Rangers fans are getting a little nervous and as Luton's attack continues to intensify, their defence is starting to be in danger more often.

In the 76th minute of the game, Charlie Austin received a cross in the penalty area and stabbed it with his toe, and the football hit the post and went out of the bottom line, almost helping the team equalize.

The goal startled Wycombe Rovers fans, but just as they were rejoicing, Luton's attack returned.

Adam faked past a defender on the left and dribbled into the box and passed the ball into the box as he got close to the baseline.

Jamie Vardy's header saved the goalkeeper, but Charlie Austin's follow-up effort left them with nothing to do.

Charlie Austin was very excited after the goal and his goal helped his team to overtake the scoreline.

If the win is maintained until the end of the game, Luton Town can overtake Wycombe Rovers to the top of the table!

From minus 30 points at the start of the season to the current standings helper team!

Luton Town have arguably set an eye-popping record, as it means that if they hadn't deducted points, they would now be 30 points ahead of second place!!

What a horrible point difference! Luton's performance is enough to show that they are definitely not a team of the level of the second division.

"They are at least as good as a mid-table team in the Premier League!!" Lightkinson said during the television broadcast.

Different people have different interpretations of Luton's strength, and the miracle that this team has created this season is destined to become a topic of conversation.

When Luton Town took the lead, there was nothing Wycombe Rangers could do.

They tried to fight back late in the game, but they were hampered by their own quality and allowed Luton to score another goal on the counter-attack.

When Adam White dribbled past the goalkeeper and sent the ball into the empty net, Wardwell Stadium was in a frenzy!

Fans jumped in the stands and kept the whole stadium in the whole building.

Gao Bo's colleagues, who applauded the performance of the players, were also worried about whether the stadium would collapse the stands because the fans were too crazy...

Gao Bo's worries were unnecessary, and the stands were still safe and sound until the end of the game, but the atmosphere in the stadium reached its peak at this moment!

Luton Town beat Wycombe Rovers and they are now overtaken and top of the table!
