No. 240: Wolf King!
CSKA Moscow is, after all, a Russian Premier League powerhouse, having won the League Cup in 05 and playing at home.
So after the game started, they quickly took the initiative and controlled the pace of the game.
Wolves had no choice but to play steadily, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack and then threaten the opponent's door while defending well.
CSKA launched a fierce attack on the Wolves amid the huge shouts of the home fans, like a red giant beast about to devour its prey in front of it.
In the seventh minute of the first half, CSKA had the first great chance of the game when Rahmic combined with his team-mates to tear through the Wolves defence on the left and pass the ball into the Wolves penalty area.
Elgin, who outflanked in the middle, beat Craddock, a beautiful lion shook his head, and the football flew to the left side of the goal!
For the first time, the whole stadium became tense!
At this critical moment, Oakes turned the tide, jumped forward, supported his right hand under the football, and lifted the football off the crossbar with difficulty, blocking the opponent's must-score goal!
The stadium resounded with the huge cry of regret from CSKA fans and the exclamation of Wolves fans who never died!
Over time, CSKA pressed the Wolves formation even tighter, with the exception of Peter, the rest of the Wolves players were basically within the first 30 meters of the penalty area.
CSKA's oppressive style of play has put a lot of pressure on the Wolves, and this kind of pressure may lead to excessive psychological burden on the Wolves players at any time and make mistakes.
In the seventeenth minute of the first half, central defender Craddock made a mistake under heavy pressure. CSKA midfielder Christi crossed from the wing, but he didn't even play the football, and Dezaguev behind him was able to steal the spot. Football hits the net!
The score became 1-0!
The Luzhniki stadium was resounded with deafening cheers and exclamations......
Ince, who was standing in the command area, had the same face, and even shouted at Craddock, who was in a state of self-reproach and frustration, signaling that he didn't have to blame himself.
Playing away from home, the score was temporarily behind, Ince had already predicted this situation before the game, and he told his players that they should be more calm at such times. Instead of panicking.
So after the game restarted, the Wolves did not panic, and Wang Rui began to organize an attack.
Twentieth minute of the first half. Wang Rui received Kending's direct pass in the opponent's hinterland, and used a beautiful change of direction to dribble to shake off the opponent's back defense, without waiting for other players on the other side to fill the position, it was a kick over the top!
A white light shone brightly. Football flew over the heads of CSKA defenders. A gray figure, like a bolt of lightning rushing towards the ball!
Wang Rui finally showed his exquisite and accurate passing skills, tearing apart the opponent's defense in one fell swoop. The pass landed like a boulder on calm water, sending huge waves through the hearts of the CSKA defenders.
"Smack! ......" There was a crisp sound, and Peter didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, and raised his right foot to volley!
The ball blasted towards the left side of the goal like a cannonball!
CSKA goalkeeper Akinfeev made a flying save, his right hand touching the ball, and the trajectory of the ball changed. "Pong! ......" made the home fans breathe a sigh of relief.
The ball hit the crossbar hard. Bounce back into the box.
Mutation has happened!
A gray voice flew towards the football in Peter's painful eyes, making the hearts of the home fans that had just fallen re-suspended!
After Kenting passed the ball to Wang Rui, he quickly stepped forward, he wanted to continue to cooperate with Wang Rui, but Wang Rui passed the ball to Peter. Kending did not stop his own pace in this situation, but continued to move forward at a rapid pace.
Since Kending was inserted into the attack, the opposing defenders of the CSKA team did not return to defend with him at all, so there was no one to defend him!
After the football rebounded into the penalty area, Kending, who stepped forward to the penalty area, pounced viciously like a hungry wolf smelling its prey!
In the shouts of CSKA goalkeeper Akinfeev, in the frightened eyes of the home fans, and in the expectant eyes of the Wolves fans who came from afar, Kenting took three big strides and pushed the shot!
"Smack! ……”
With a crisp sound, the ball flew towards the empty goal!
In an instant, the ball flew over the goal line and into the net!
The ball is in!
The score becomes 1 to 1!
Wolves equalized with Kentin's follow-up shot!
After CSKA broke the deadlock on the field, they wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase down, but they didn't expect that Wolves would immediately return the color and equalize the score.
can qualify one round ahead of schedule as the first in the group, and can reverse the Shakhtars by five goals when they are down 0-3, this dark horse can indeed come so far, and it does have its own unique things.
The CSKA players gathered up their disdain for Wolves and began to take a fresh look at the obscure English side.
The coach of the Central Army was very dissatisfied with his midfield, first of all, they did not defend Wang Rui and let him easily send out cannonballs, and second, Kentin had no one to defend, damn it!
British reporters on the sidelines nodded their heads, and Wolves' attacking methods were different from last season's reliance on the Trident, and this season was more abundant. Newcomer Bale made the left side of the Wolves the most dangerous wing, and Kending stepped forward at the right time to enrich the Wolves attack in the middle.
Coupled with the Wolves twin stars, the attack power of the Wolves team is indeed very extraordinary!
Both sides wasted a couple of chances to open the scoring for the rest of the first half, ending the first half with a 1-1 scoreline.
At half-time, there was a good atmosphere in the visitors' dressing room, and Ince praised his team and stressed the importance of calmness in the second half, no matter what the situation came his way.
Compared to the unity and fighting spirit of the visitors, the atmosphere in the home dressing room was different, and the manager harshly criticized his midfield: "Five people! There were five of us in the midfield! Where were the five of you when they scored that goal? ”
"Damn, it's our home turf! Do you want to watch your opponents retreat on our home turf? ”
"Shoot that damn king hard for me, don't let him pass the ball easily!"
CSKA's five midfielders frowned, criticised by the manager, and no one would be in a good mood. Christie, who defended against Wang Rui, had a particularly ugly face, and Wang Rui easily got rid of him for that goal from the Wolves, and sent the football to Peter's feet.
From a certain point of view, the primary responsibility for losing the ball lies on him, if he stops Wang Rui, without that pass, there will be no Peter's shot, and of course there will be no Kenting's follow-up shot......
"Damn boy, we'll see how I stare at you in the second half!"
Krish said fiercely in his heart.
……
The second half of the game came as scheduled, and the more than 100 Wolves fans who came from afar shouted loudly with all their might.
Their side were stubbornly able to equalise in the first half, despite being passive.
CSKA continued to dominate the game after the start of the second half. Wolves calmly accepted the situation, patiently maneuvering with their opponents in search of a lethal counter-attack.
CSKA strengthened its defense against Wang Rui when defending, and the strategy adopted by Chrischi, who was defending against him, was "the ball is not enough", so Wang Rui frequently fell to the turf.
The foul tactics made the Wolves' offense not as fluid as in the first half, and the counterattack slowed down a lot. Without speed, the Wolves' sharp counterattack was gone, and Ince, who was standing in the command area, did not ask Wang Rui to change his style of play.
In the fifteenth minute of the second half, Bale assisted on the left side, and at a distance of 20 meters from the bottom line, he suddenly crossed the football to the middle, and Wang Rui moved to meet the ball!
Christie did not put down Wang Rui at the first time, but used a reasonable way to collide, trying to prevent Wang Rui from holding the football.
A good Wang Rui was stumbling, his left foot was on the football, and the whole body suddenly followed the forward inertia, with the left foot as the axis, and the whole body rotated one hundred and eighty degrees in the air!
Kris looked at the black hair in front of him in front of him in shock, juggling, controlling the football at his feet!
The more than 100 Wolves fans who came from afar in the stands couldn't help but shout: "Wolf King! ”
"Wolf King!"
"Wolf King!"
After Wang Rui turned around, without the slightest pause, his center of gravity suddenly pressed to the right front, and he didn't even listen to the Wolves fans to give him a nickname, and killed to the left side of Christie!
The hair on Chrischi's left forehead rose slightly, he woke up from the shock, took a step back with his left foot, and stretched out his right foot towards Wang Rui's left leg!
Without any accidents, Wang Rui fell to the turf again, and after the referee blew a whistle, he raised a yellow card to Christi, who had repeatedly fouled, and awarded Wolves a direct free kick in a good position!
Wang Rui stood up from the turf with Bell's support, and he had no major problems. Peter wants to repeat his old trick and stands on the right side of the human wall, and the CSKA players want to push him out of the human wall, and an argument ensues.
Peter finally got his wish and stood on the far left side of the wall, and the CSKA wall players sent the message to each other - wait a minute, when the free kick is taken, no matter how much the damn Wolves player jumps, we can't jump either!
When Wolves played against Shakhtar, the Wolves duo combined to score a brilliant free-kick combination, and CSKA players didn't want to fall at the feet of the Wolves duo.
"Smack! ...... "When the football flew out from under Wang Rui's feet, Peter didn't jump up like he did with the miners, but bent over!"
Just as he was bent down, the hair on the top of his head suddenly fluttered back, and the football flew over his head!
A wonderful arc appeared in the CSKA restricted area, the starting point of the arc was Wang Rui's right foot, the apex was above Peter's head, and the end point was in the net!
The ball is in!
The score becomes two to one!
Wolves overtook the score!
The Luzhniki Stadium fell into a deathly silence, broken by Wolves fans and Chinese students: "Wolf King! ”
"Wolf King!"
"Wolf King!" (To be continued......)
