No. 484: Punishment in lieu of punishment!

Capello quickly ended his holiday and flew quietly to London, but he was surrounded by a group of reporters with a keen sense of smell at the London airport.

"Is it for the sake of Rooney, Wang, and Peter's ban to end the holiday early?"

"Are you going to the FA?"

"What do you think of the behavior of the three of them?"

"Will this incident affect your impression of the king and Peter?"

With all sorts of questions bombarding the current England manager like cannonballs, Capello quickly collected his mood and said to the camera and the microphone: "The impact of this brawl is bad, they are all adults, they should be held responsible for their actions, and I support the FA to punish them severely." ”

The Italian was already harsh, not to mention that now the British media is aggressive, and he does not want to burn the fire on himself.

"As for my impression of the king and Peter...... They were really too impulsive this time and couldn't control their emotions well. I will consider all aspects to decide their future. ”

"I did go to the FA, but it didn't have anything to do with their punishment, I was going to talk about the next stage of training and preparation, as well as some arrangements to go to South Africa."

The journalist is skeptical of the words of the Italians, communicates training and preparations, needs to end the holiday early?

Capello drove to the FA office under the skeptical gaze of reporters. He spoke with the FA president for three hours, and Capello did not disclose the content of the conversation to reporters who had been waiting outside the building.

On the 11th, Manchester United and Wolves filed a complaint with the FA.

The FA has announced that a hearing will be held on March 15.

On the 13th, the thirtieth round of the English Premier League began, and Chelsea, who took the lead, won 4-1 at home to West Ham United, consolidating the second place in the standings, and they were only one point away from Wolves.

Manchester United in the game at seven o'clock in the evening. A 2-0 win over Fulham moved them to third by a point and continued to put pressure on Chelsea and Wolves.

Manchester United have a strong underbelly, and without Wayne Rooney, Nani has taken on the attacking load, passing and shooting to help his team win at home.

The pressure was on the Wolves, and the "four sharpest teeth in the wolf's mouth" were left alone, could he carry the burden of the Wolves attack alone?

At four o'clock in the afternoon of the 14th, the game between Wolves and Burnley. In Turf? Moore Stadium started, and the Wolves, who were short of major generals, played in a mourning posture.

The deadlock was broken in the 31st minute of the first half when Burnley took advantage of a corner to break the back of the door in Oakes.

The Wolves turnaround came in the 19th minute of the second half, when Bale broke down the flank and suddenly cut inside and fired a long-range shot through the Burnley goal!

Wolves equalised.

However, it didn't last long, and eight minutes later, Burnley took advantage of a Wolves defender's mispass. Seize the opportunity, score with a single knife, and rewrite the score again.

For the rest of the time, Lonely Bell. Again and again, he attacked the opposition defence, but he could only get a few reluctant long-range shots. After three minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game as Wolves lost 2-1 away.

Wolves are in jeopardy at the top of the table.

The Guardian shouted: "Next round." The top of the Premier League will be replaced! ”

The media was not too surprised by the Wolves away defeat, where could Bale alone provoke the Wolves offensive responsibility, it was difficult to support it alone.

Fifteenth. The FA held a closed-door meeting to hear the grievances of Manchester United and Wolves. Wolves argued at the meeting and proposed a solution - penalty in lieu of penalty.

That is, the financial penalty is increased in lieu of the penalty on the ban.

The FA did not give a clear statement on this.

United did not propose anything, they just thought that the penalty for Rooney was too severe, they thought a two-game suspension was justified, and a five-game suspension was too severe.

After the meeting, Morgan spoke to the media in a rare way to tell the Wolves proposal.

There was a lot of talk in the media, with some arguing that the FA would be acceptable to the FA and that the fines would allow the players to be severely punished.

Some people think that this approach is inappropriate and does not work as well as it should, with the Guardian publishing an article commenting: "The FA's punishment is to cure the disease and save lives, and it is clear that for a professional player, a ban is the most severe punishment and the most memorable for the player."

No more fines make much sense, and money is not an issue for players like Wang and Peter, who earn more than £100,000 a week. And how much can the FA fine? ”

The content of the closed-door meeting should not have been told to the media, but Morgan did it, which is against the rules. The FA has been heavily critical of the behaviour and fined Morgan £5,000.

Park Sung-hwan, who has a keen sense of smell, dances with his eyebrows, which shows that the FA does not have a good impression of Wolves, and also shows that Wolves' appeal and the so-called "penalty in lieu of punishment" are likely not recognized by the FA.

On the 17th, Capello announced the list of England's training camp in the middle of next week, and Rooney, Wang Rui, and Peter were all unselected. Kentin, who is recovering from injury, is also not on the squad, with the only one selected for the Wolves being captain Oakes.

On March 20, the 31st round of the Premier League began.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the game between Wolves and Villa was the first to start at Villa Park. The Villa team launched a tidal wave of attacks on Wolves amid the shouts of the home team, and Wolves could only play a defensive counterattack.

After a fierce battle, Bale struggled to stand alone, the Villa team won 2-1, and the Wolves suffered two consecutive defeats.

The main battle of the story was played at 8 o'clock that night, with Manchester United at home taking on Liverpool's challenge. The battle was intense, with a hard-fought 2-1 home win over Liverpool thanks to a goal from Park Ji-sung in the 83rd minute of the second half.

At this point, Manchester United has surpassed Wolves by one point and temporarily ranked at the top of the standings.

At 4pm the next day, second-placed Chelsea took on Blackburn Rovers at the game. Chelsea ended the first half 1-0 thanks to Didier Drogba's long-range strike in the 35th minute of the first half.

It wasn't until the thirtieth minute of the second half that the score was rewritten. Blackburn took advantage of a free-kick in front of the box and scored straight into the net to equalise.

In the ensuing period, Chelsea launched a tidal wave of attacks, but Blackburn's tight defence saw them miss goals again and again and had to settle for a draw.

Chelsea were level on points with Wolves thanks to this draw, but unfortunately finished third on goal difference. But everyone knows that sooner or later Chelsea will have to overtake Wolves.

The situation of the championship group is staggered, and the rankings between each other can change at any time. Wolves' previous advantage was wiped out after two consecutive defeats, and they became the least favourable team.

On March 23, a new training camp in England began, but it had nothing to do with the Wolves twins. On the 25th, England welcomed the challenge of Sweden at Wembley Stadium.

The away Swedish team ended the first half with a score of 1-0 with Ibrahimovic's powerful shot in the 32nd minute of the first half.

At the start of the second half, England launched ferocious attacks on Sweden, but they came back again and again to no avail. The fans watching the game suddenly shouted Wang Rui's name.

According to the investigation afterwards, it was the voice of Wolves fans.

In the 39th minute of the second half, Joe Cole fell in the Swedish penalty area, and the referee awarded England a penalty, which caused a lot of controversy.

Steven Gerrard converted the penalty created by Joe Cole and England were lucky enough to equalise and the two teams drew 1-1.

At the post-match press conference, a British journalist asked Capello the question, "The World Cup is approaching, how do you improve the attacking power of the midfield?" If King is on the pitch, will England's attack change? ”

Capello frowned and answered only the first question: "The attacking quality of our midfield will slowly improve." ”

The Swedish press believes that the England team stole their victory.

"If it hadn't been for that penalty out of nothing, Sweden would have walked away with a win at Wembley!"

This was commented by Sweden's most famous sports media, Swedish Sport.

England have been heavily criticised by the media for their disorganized frontline and failure to create good chances for their forwards to score.

The Times said: "Maybe the king is on the pitch and that will change a lot! ”

The draw made England realise the importance of Wang Rui, and quietly, more media began to support Morgan, believing that the FA should reconsider Wolves' proposal and consider replacing penalties with penalties. (To be continued.) )
