Raymond on the Norwich wing took the ball and wanted to find two points in the middle. However, Cook had predicted the ball and got ahead of Jamero and headed the ball towards the midfield.
Norwich midfielder Howson rushed over immediately, trying to control the ball again. Bai Ye also saw the landing point and also grabbed it!
When Haosen saw Bai Ye rushing over, he didn't panic at all. They had completely analyzed Bai Ye before the game and knew that his passing was powerful, but confrontation was his weakness.
So Haosen made preparations in advance and planned to show Bai Ye, a young boy, a little color!
Haosen rushed towards the football with all his strength, and Baiye reached the landing point slightly ahead of schedule.
After Bai Ye pushed the ball forward, the football fell to the ground and he protected the ball.
Howson caught up and directly stuck to Bai Ye. In his imagination, he should be able to push Bai Ye this time. Although it was a foul, it would not allow Bournemouth to control the ball comfortably.
However,
When Haosen bumped into him, everyone was stunned! Not moving at all! He seemed to have hit a wall!
Instead, he himself fell backwards and fell to the ground because of such a collision.
Bai Ye didn't even move, he just got rid of it!
The referee immediately signaled that the attack was favorable. Baiye launched an attack on the spot and advanced directly from the center. Another midfielder, Bradley Johnson, immediately rushed over to limit Baiye's advancement.
Bai Ye ignored it and accelerated forward. When Bradley Johnson was approaching, he suddenly kicked the ball to the left wing.
Wilson is here!
After receiving the ball, continue to move forward. Faced with such a change, Norwich's formation did not panic and immediately encircled Wilson.
But Bai Ye appeared in time and freed Wilson!
Bai Ye met Wilson in the rib position outside the penalty area. After Wilson passed the ball over, Bai Ye faced the defense of Norwich midfielder Te Tai behind him and completed the turn with the opponent on his back!
And with most of Norwich's defense on the left, a very precise through ball!
He tore open Norwich's defense and found Pittman directly on the right!
Before the opponent's defender could react, Pittman blasted a shot towards the goal!
Goalkeeper Rudy's attention was focused on Bai Ye. He was worried about Bai Ye's sudden long shot, so he stood closer to the left. Facing Pitman's shot, Rudy went to the ground to save it with all his strength, but there was nothing he could do!
Uh-huh!
The football rushed into the net and caused a large white wave! Even the camera behind the net was knocked down by this kick!
Scored!
Bournemouth are at home and leading by one goal! !
Wow!
The Vitality Stadium was shaken, and the fans were cheering and excited! Cold winter night, blood boiling! Passionate!
Bai Ye's pass really excited the fans.
"Handsome! So handsome! Bai Ye's kick is really an art!"
"Bai Ye is an artist on the court!"
"Wow! I could only see Bai Ye passing such a pass. How did he see Pittman? It's amazing!"
Applause, cheers, exclamations...all gathered together to form the biggest wave in the Vitality Stadium, sweeping all the players!
After Pitman made the celebration gesture, he pointed his finger at Bai Ye and smiled like a child. After approaching, he hugged Bai Ye tightly.
Without Bai Ye's pass, he would not have such a scoring opportunity.
It all depends on Bai Ye!
The players and fans celebrated together, but the Norwich players felt depressed. The opponent's offense was actually very simple, just defensive counterattack, but the efficiency was so high!
After just three or four passes, the ball was scored!
Eddie Howe was very satisfied with this offense. This offense perfectly used his defensive counterattack tactics.
Of course, the main contributor here is Bai Ye!
He is the indispensable and absolute core point in today's Bournemouth counterattack!
Seeing the team's performance like this, Eddie Howe has a lot more confidence in this game. So what if he is second in the standings? Bournemouth are still fourth! Not much different!
However, Bai Ye's performance today made Eddie Hao somewhat confused. After two consecutive physical confrontations, Bai Ye actually failed!
This is rare! Bai Ye usually tries to avoid physical confrontation with the opponent. What happened today?
On the other side of the Norwich coaching bench, Alex Neal touched the few hairs remaining on the sidelines and felt a little uneasy. He also had the same doubts as Eddie Howe, how did Howson and Te Tai What's going on?
Why can a player like Bai Ye, who is relatively weak in confrontation, continue to suffer physical losses?
Haosen's one can still explain that Haosen himself may not have been able to stand still when he bumped into it, but Te Tai's one is outrageous!
He actually let Bai Ye carry him to complete the turn and then release the ball!
This is simply an unforgivable mistake!
Neil quickly called the players and gave them detailed instructions.
But after hearing Neil's reprimand, Tetai seemed a little aggrieved and said: "Coach, I feel something is wrong. This Baiye may not be bad at confrontation."
Neil has never interacted with Bai Ye. All his analysis came from Bai Ye's video highlights and information collected by other assistant coaches. Faced with Te Tai's cry of injustice, he didn't pay much attention to it. Quan assumed it was Te Tai. Explain to yourself.
"No matter what, keep an eye on him!"
"good!"
Te Tai didn't dare to explain too much, lest he show his incompetence. You know, the team has just changed to a new coach. If he gets a bad impression and loses his main position, wouldn't it be a big loss?
The game starts again.
Bournemouth did not relax their vigilance just because they scored a goal. The opponent was a team with higher points than themselves, so they had to defend carefully.
As the game progressed, Friedrich was also in the stands of the Vitality Stadium.
After the first two rounds of Bournemouth games, he saw Baiye's very stable performance and felt that he already knew the player. He planned to return to Germany, but he thought it was a business trip at public expense anyway to watch one more game.
But it was this decision that led him to a new discovery!
Although Bai Ye was also avoiding some physical confrontations in this game, the two physical confrontations just before the goal made Friedrich somewhat doubt whether his conclusion that Bai Ye was weak in physical confrontation was wrong!
Bai Ye seems to be stronger now?
But Friedrich was not sure, and he needed to observe more. And regarding the winter window transfer, Bayern's response was that Bournemouth rejected Bayern's offer.
As for the German team, contacting Bai Ye's family was not smooth either. The other party was not very enthusiastic about joining the German team.
This makes Friedrich a little helpless. It is really a pity to see a top-level talented player unable to play for his favorite team.
Wow!
Just when Friedrich felt regretful, the score on the field changed again!
In the 21st minute, after Norwich's continuous attacks failed, Bournemouth completed the counterattack after stealing the ball. It was still a simple routine, which was to advance from the side and Baiye received the cross.
But this time, when Bai Ye passed the ball, Pittman did not touch the football. Instead, Norwich central defender Michael Turner wanted to make a clearance, but Bai Ye's pass rotated, causing Turner's own goal!
Bournemouth leads by two goals!
Hahaha!
The entire Bournemouth fans at the Vitality Stadium were extremely happy. Is this the strength of being second in the standings? If that's all, they can do it too!
Bournemouth instead!
Eddie Howe feels the same way, but as a head coach, he will think more about it. In this game, the opposing team has a new coach and the players are not that familiar with tactics.
At the same time, his own 442 tactical players have fully understood and know what they should do.
More importantly, Bournemouth has a bug-level player like Bai Ye in the British Championship, and it is difficult for the opponent to truly defend Bai Ye!
Whenever Bai Ye gets the ball, Bournemouth can get an excellent offensive opportunity. If both wings can arrange a faster winger, and then a pie-eating center with the ability to hold the ball behind his back. , this lineup is simply invincible!
Unfortunately, it is difficult for Bournemouth to have such a configuration now, but the current effect is good!
Neil obviously also discovered that Bai Ye is the core point of Bournemouth, but if you want to strangle the connection between this point and other players, you can't do it just because you want to!
Bai Ye's kick is difficult to prevent, and today's Bai Ye always feels a little unpredictable in terms of physical confrontation.
Call him strong, but he avoids confrontation most of the time. Call him weak, but you can't stop him!
So Neil's decision was to use offense instead of defense!
We have already conceded two goals, what can we do?
He took over the team halfway and didn't have many options. He could only rely on the players to play hard, and his tactical ideas had to be digested over time. The former head coach can be fired even though his results are good. Neil can only say that head coach is really a high-risk profession.
So, the attack is over!
Norwich continues to attack and press Bournemouth to kick! Of course, in such an offensive situation, if Bournemouth wants to attack while defending, there will inevitably be loopholes.
When Jerome received the pass from his teammate, he grabbed the position and successfully completed the shot. The football went straight into the blind corner!
Goalkeeper Boruc didn't react at all. If Jerome's kick hadn't gone slightly wide and was blocked by the goalpost, Norwich would have pulled a goal back.
This also alerted Bournemouth that the opponent's offensive strength is not weak!
Their two goals were just an advantage gained by relying on Baiye's counterattack.
Norwich also regained their morale after this goal. At least they knew that Bournemouth's defense was not that strong.
It can also be broken!
Until the end of the first half, the two sides went back and forth for several rounds. After Wilson and Pittman were seen dead, it was difficult for Baiye to pose much threat to Norwich without moving forward.
On the contrary, Norwich managed to get a goal back in the away game by relying on a corner kick in stoppage time.
The score became 2-1.
drop!
The referee blew the whistle to end the first half.
In this first half, both sides saw the hope of victory, because the shortcomings and advantages of both sides were obvious, and everyone had a chance! It depends on who can grasp it more!
During the halftime break, the England broadcast commentator said about the game: "This was a wonderful game, with both sides switching offense and defense very frequently. No one really defended.
Among them, Baiye's performance is even more eye-catching. His counterattack threat has frustrated Norwich's defense many times and conceded two goals.
On Norwich's side, there are also many opportunities, and Bournemouth's defense looks shaky. Or too many schedules have made Bournemouth's defensive players too tired.
Their state makes it hard to expect them not to be defeated when facing Chelsea's attack. Eddie Howe's team needs changes and signings. So far, Bournemouth has not made any moves against the back line, which makes people wonder whether they have the ability to fight on multiple lines, or what their confidence is in multi-line operations?
White leaves? There is no denying Baiye's strength, but football is a team sport after all.
However, as far as the current game is concerned, Bai Ye is indeed very important. This dialogue between the British Championship is indeed exciting! Let us look forward to the performance of both sides in the second half! We also need to see if the head coaches of both sides will make any adjustments in the second half. "
It does need to be adjusted.
In the Bournemouth dressing room, Eddie Howe's adjustment in the second half was to make Bai Ye's position first.
"We need to create more opportunities for Bai Ye to face the goal directly at the top of the penalty area! When our wing attack is frustrated, we can only rely on Bai Ye's long shots to open up the situation!
In this game, we want to completely defend the opponent's offense, which is not easy, but I still hope that you can do your best to defend. Otherwise, no matter how many goals are scored from the front, they will be lost from behind, and it will have no effect! "
The players all agree with Eddie Howe's words. Wilson nodded. After he was guarded in the second half of the first half, he was really uncomfortable playing. He needed Baiye's long shot!
Bai Ye nodded. He had no objection to this arrangement, because that was what he originally thought. He even wanted to try the talent of the king of the small penalty area in the small penalty area!
But after thinking about it, I gave up because his position couldn't go that deep. Moreover, heading the ball can easily expose his own strength. He did not want to be exposed before facing Chelsea.
Because Chelsea is the absolute enemy now!
soon.
At the end of the halftime break, the players from both sides returned to the court again, and the second half of the game officially began!
drop!
After the referee blew the whistle, Pittman returned the football to Bai Ye's feet.
Bournemouth did not rush to attack, but took possession of the ball first and waited for the opponent to press and look for opportunities.
The score of 2-1 made Bournemouth fans a little nervous, because this score was not so safe.
In addition to the fans of Bournemouth, this game also has the attention of Watford and several top-ranked teams.
Because regardless of the score between Bournemouth and Norwich, it will also affect the points situation between the top teams to a certain extent.
As the schedule is getting closer and closer to the end, every strong dialogue is very important!
For example, the previous draw between Watford and Norwich gave the following teams hope of getting closer.
Back on the field.
The fans at the Vitality Stadium did not stop cheering and even sang Baiye's cheering song again.
Bournemouth recovered and Norwich came up to press.
As Norwich's formation moved higher and higher, after Bai Ye distributed the ball to his teammates, his position moved laterally and moved forward covertly.
Since it was going to be the end point, it was natural to take advantage of the other party's inattention and strike with a fatal blow!
Bai Ye kept observing the positions of both sides. His position had been pulled to the side, almost close to Wilson's position, after making eye contact.
Wilson and Bai Ye suddenly speeded up, and they crossed paths. Wilson blocked Bai Ye from Te Tai, who had been following Bai Ye.
At the same time, full-back Daniels directly passed the ball in the direction of Baiye.
Seeing this large-scale transfer of the ball, the fans at the scene craned their necks to look over, anticipating the team's attack.
Baiye immediately judged the landing point and ran forward, but the opponent's defender Michael Turner also came up to him.
Bai Ye jumped up suddenly and had a physical confrontation with Michael Turner in the air. Turner felt that he hit the wall! Suddenly the center of gravity was unbalanced, allowing Bai Ye to hit the ball and move forward.
In the entire Norwich defense, only central defender Russell Martin is left!
Martin quickly followed up to cover the defense. When Baiye got the ball, Wilson and Pittman had already started sprinting forward crazily.
On the one hand, it attracts defensive attention for Bai Ye, and on the other hand, it really increases Bai Ye's receiving points and gives him a chance to score a goal.
However, Norwich's two full-backs returned to defense very quickly, one on the left and one on the right, followed by Martin Olsson and Whittaker.
Wilson and Pittman's chances aren't good.
Baiye didn't stop for a moment and continued to hit the ball to face Russell Martin's defense!
While Martin was still observing Bai Ye's steps and thinking that Bai Ye was a right-footed player, Bai Ye's advantage of having both feet balanced was fully brought into play!
During the process of dribbling the ball, when he was still a short distance away from Martin, Bai Ye directly raised his foot and shot without any warning!
Bang!
In Martin's amazed eyes, the football passed him, flew high into the sky, and headed straight for the goal!
