Bolton's defensive strategy is very simple, that is, to stabilize the formation. There will be loopholes in the entire backcourt. As long as the formation is stable, there will be no loopholes, they do not believe that Wigan's competitive skills have excellent players who dribble the ball alone to find opportunities.

This defense is very stable.

Their strength is already stronger than Wigan Athletics, with 442 formations and two 44 defense lines. The backcourt is full of Bolton players. It is too difficult to find opportunities by relying on passing.

Javier frowned, too.

He turned to look at the other side, Bolton's coaching seat, where Allardes sat calmly, with a faint smile on his face. He thought he had made sufficient preparations and attached great importance to the game without any carelessness.

However, in this way, it will be too difficult for the team to score.

...

In order to get a goal and get a chance, Wigan Athletics gradually became fierce in fighting.

In the eleventh minute, Kennedy, the captain of the team who started to replace Ridell, used a kick to tackle the opponent's dribble. The tackle did not make a foul, but it was still suspended by the referee's whistle blow. He was verbally warned by the referee, mainly because the action just now was too dangerous.

Kennedy is better at technicians.

Two minutes later, Jason was in the backcourt and kicked the opponent's forward to roll twice on the grass, without even half of the ball, and the referee showed a yellow card.

Jason didn't mean anything to be sorry, but glared at the Bolton player fiercely.

Soon Bolton's "revenge" came. Kennedy got the ball in the frontcourt and was tackled by the opponent. Kennedy stood up and pushed and shouted with the opponent. In the end, the referee awarded a yellow card to each side.

As the players on both sides clamored, Zhang Tiehan did not go over, he was stepping on the ball and looking at the opponent's goal.

This position is more than 30 meters away from the goal. In the past, he could still score the ball in shooting training, but the distance is indeed a bit far, and he is not sure, especially if the opponent has a wall, it is not easy to pass through the wall.

He looked down at the ball, looked up at the goal, but he still wanted to try it.

...

After the noise was over, everyone returned to their positions. The referee awarded Wigan Athletic a set piece, which was about 35 meters away from the goal, which was a bit far away.

Bolton doesn't think it's an opportunity.

However, they still symbolically arranged the two people's walls, and the other players stood in a mess and didn't care at all, just waiting for the free throws of Wigan Athletics.

Zhang Tiehan stood in front of the ball.

When the referee signaled, he raised his foot indifferently. Even the two players on the other side, as the human wall, were about to run away. At this time, Zhang Tiehan suddenly exerted force, and his right foot was directly stuffed behind the football.

Bang!

A loud noise!

All the fans were stunned. The Bolton player looked over after listening to the sound. When he saw that the football had already flown through the penalty area--

Rush straight towards the goal!

"Shot directly! Zhang-" Mick Williams had only had time to say the last sentence, and saw the football fly through the penalty area and rushed directly to the left corner of the goal. Bolton goalkeeper Kevin Poole stood in front of the goal, not even moving.

Many people stood up.

Head coach Javier and other Wigan Athletic substitutes also stood up.

"Touch!" Another muffled sound, and the football hit the goal post and flew out of the bottom line.

"Hula..." The lost voices of fans sounded in the stands.

Bolton people looked at the goal in surprise and the football flying out of bounds. They had just reacted so far. Thinking about the ball just now, they felt a chill on their backs.

No one cared, but the ball almost entered.

Just a little bit...

Zhang Tiehan opened his hands and clenched his fists hard.

It's really a little bit short!

He lifted his right foot and poked the grass, feeling that he was in good shape today and didn't score the ball, but he saw hope. As long as he had a few opportunities, he believed that he would definitely score the ball.

Just fight like this!
Chapter completed!
