No. 167: The second leg of the semi-finals is coming!

On the 18th, the 27th round of League One began, and Wolves hosted Luton Town. Peter and Wang Rui continued to sit on the sidelines and did not appear in the starting line-up, while the other main players also sat on the bench.

According to media analysis, Ince arranged this way, on the one hand, because the main team has not yet gotten rid of the flu, and on the other hand, for the second leg of the League Cup semi-finals five days later. The FA Cup was eliminated and the Carabao Cup was left for Wolves, and Ince didn't want the boiled duck to fly away.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the game officially began, and the Wolves who came on as a substitute were quickly at the bottom of the game. Luton Town scored in the 27th and 29th minutes of the first half.

In the twelfth minute of the second half, Ince began to make substitutions, replacing Wang Rui and Peter, who had recovered from injury, and soon after, replacing Kentin on the field.

With three youngsters on the pitch, Wolves gradually stabilized the situation and launched a counter-attack. In the thirtieth minute of the second half, Wolves took a corner kick, Kentin jumped high, pressed the opponent's central defender, and scored with a header!

The soccer ball flies past the fingertips of the opposing goalkeeper!

1 to 2, Wolves narrowed the difference!

In the ensuing game, Luton wisely opted to cut into the half, as they held on for the win. The Wolves are attacking like a tide, but they have returned again and again in vain!

Is the winning streak coming to an end?

Not only that, but is their unbeaten gold in League One about to be broken?

Obviously, this is what Wang Rui does not want to see.

In the 42nd minute of the second half, Peter forced his way in front of the opposition penalty area and was brought down by the opponents, and Wolves won a direct free-kick opportunity in a good position. Perhaps it was Wolves' best chance of equalising.

Wang Rui stood in front of the football, took a few deep breaths, and after the referee blew the whistle, he slowly ran towards the football!

"Smack! ......" There was a crisp sound, and the football flew up from the turf, instantly flew over the human wall, and flew towards the right side of the goal!

The opposing goalkeeper made a flying save, but the angle of the ball was tricky and his fingers failed to touch the ball. Football drilled into the net in the expectant eyes of the fans!

The ball is in!

The score became two to two!

Wolves relied on the play of the Wolves twin stars to finally equalize before the end of the game. As the referee's whistle blew at the end of the game, Wolves' winning streak in League One finally came to a halt.

Stopping the winning streak did not frustrate Wolves, but rather made them feel relaxed, as if the mountains had been removed. With their winning streak going on and on, they're carrying a heavy baggage, and who wouldn't want to make their winning streak a little longer?

After the game, Peter exclaimed in the dressing room: "The winning streak has stopped, but our unbeaten streak continues. We are also the only unbeaten team in League One! ”

Wolves continue to break their winning streak and have long dominated the headlines of League One. Although they have now finally stopped their winning streak, they still dominate the headlines of League One.

The headline in the Daily Mirror read: Wolves finally stop their winning streak!

The Guardian's headline reads: Wolves are on a twenty-sixth winning streak!

The headline in the Daily Mail read: Wolves stop winning streak, but keep their unbeaten streak!

The Times commented: A lot of people have been speculating about when Wolves will stop their winning streak, and now the answer is finally out. Their League One winning streak is set at 26 games!

This is a terrifying number, and it is hard to imagine!

From 0-2 to 2-2, the three young players of the Wolves team have made people see their terrible. With the arrival of Wang, Peter and Kenting, the Wolves had the backbone of the central axis, and they stabilized the situation, launched a ferocious offensive, and finally equalized.

Speaking to the media after the game, Ince said, "It's not a bad thing to stop the winning streak, it's a good thing. Wolves can easily get into the game and no longer have to carry the baggage to continue to rewrite their winning streak. The winning streak is like a tight bowstring that can break at any moment and now it's finally broken, which is good for us in preparing for the Carabao Cup. ”

A reporter asked him, "What is the next task for the Wolves?" He said: "Our next task in League One is to remain unbeaten, and in the League Cup, first to reach the final and then to fight for the title! ”

……

On the 22nd, Wolves left for Liverpool a day early, and Everton and Liverpool are in the same city.

Everton FC's long and proud history has earned them a respectable place in the history of English football. In 1878, Everton FC was officially founded, fourteen years before their arch-rivals, Liverpool.

In the 20s, Everton established a reputation as an English powerhouse, and in the 1927/1928 season, the legendary Dean scored 60 goals in a single season, not only helping Everton win the league title that year, but also setting a single-season scoring record that no one has broken to this day.

In the 50 years since, Everton have continued their success, winning the league title four times and the FA Cup once. In the 80s, they dominated the English First Division twice, and then won the European Cup Winners' Cup, making them one of the most feared teams in Europe.

In the 90s, Everton, who had declined slightly, stubbornly defended their Premier League place and still held a proud record of having never been relegated from the top flight since 1954.

Everton have won the English top flight nine times since their inception. Everton had a mediocre early career in the Premier League, often struggling on the brink of relegation.

It was not until 2002 that the team continued to improve under David Moyes, finishing fourth in the league in 2004/2005 and qualifying for the Europa League Champions League. In the past ten seasons, only two seasons of the league have ranked outside the top 10, becoming a new force that cannot be ignored.

Wolves are not a level of rivals compared to them, either historically or currently. But with a 5-1 win over the first leg, they are confident of knocking out their opponents and progressing to the League Cup final.

However, their confidence began to falter because of another game.

On the way to Liverpool, Wolves played another semi-final. Tottenham took advantage of the home advantage to launch a tidal wave of attacks on Arsenal amid the shouts of the home fans.

After 90 minutes of fierce battle, Tottenham won 5-1!

In the end, they advanced to the League Cup final with an aggregate score of 6-2!

This result caused an uproar in public opinion, made Tottenham fans extremely excited, and the Guardian shouted: White Hart Lane is terrible, and the sought-after players are powerless in the face of Tottenham's tidal attack, and they are unable to parry!

No matter who the other team that makes it to the final, it will be difficult to stop Tottenham's powerful attack!

When the Wolves heard the news, they became inexplicably nervous. Everton's morale is boosted, they see a chance of qualifying, and we can win at home like Tottenham!

This game gave the world hope that Everton may turn the tables, and the local media in Liverpool shouted: Tottenham can beat Arsenal at home, and you can do the same with Everton!

……

At 3:20 p.m. on the 23rd, the players from both sides returned to the locker room after warming up. Ince looked at his players and said: "I know that Tottenham's big win over Arsenal put a lot of pressure on us and I understand why we are under pressure. ”

"But have you ever thought that if we were to be overturned by Everton this afternoon, we wouldn't even be in a position to put pressure? If that's the case, the pressure we're generating now is a joke! ”

"Brothers! Now is not the time to think about the finals, we have to cross this threshold in front of us to qualify, to have a chance to be nervous! ”

Wang Rui exhaled a long breath, what Lao Ince said was right, now is indeed not the time to think about the finals. Peter, who was beside him, nodded vigorously and said to Ince: "Coach, what you said is very good, if we don't even qualify for the finals, these inexplicable pressures are a joke." ”

Everyone nodded, and Ince relieved himself and began to arrange tactics.

In the home dressing room, Moïse exclaimed: "Tottenham beat Arsenal 5-1 at White Hart Lane, and we have no reason to despair. Marvel...... It will appear! ”

Everton will have to go 4-0 at home to progress to the final. To do it, it is indeed a miracle.

"Wolves' tactics mean they don't defend conservatively, and that gives us a chance!"

"Cheer up, let's go and work miracles!"

The home team is in full swing, and a big battle is about to begin!
