Even after McKay left, the stadium was still filled with angry Wigan fans booing him.
Players from both sides returned to the dressing room. On the way, Wigan Athletic's players were dejected. They had failed like this too many times and now they seemed to be slowly numbing themselves. Some players ask themselves in their hearts, is this still the football he pursues? I don't know, when failure becomes accustomed to it, these players seem to feel a sense of degradation and numbness spreading around them.
No one cares about whether the team wins or loses except the fans. When everyone goes out to play, it is more like a mission, more like work, not for the belief of victory, nor for football.
However, even if someone wants to struggle, they will slowly be affected by the atmosphere and become what they are now.
The Bournemouth players looked relaxed. They were originally substitutes and were still a little nervous before taking the field, but after half the game, they adapted a lot.
During the halftime break, a Bournemouth fan said on social media: "Baiye is becoming more and more like a star now. To be honest, you have to say how well Bournemouth played in this game. ,can not tell.
But if you want to say how bad it is, it doesn’t matter. After all, the score is here. Big lead!
This is what I want to say, Bai Ye has become the player who can stabilize the lower limit of Bournemouth! As long as Bai Ye is on the court, even if Bournemouth's situation is poor, it will be just like the previous game against Chelsea.
Even if he is pressed and kicked, as long as there is a chance! Bai Ye can grasp it very well. Even when there is no chance, he can still create opportunities for other players on the team.
I think this ability is more powerful than his superficial abilities! This is the strength that can raise the lower limit of a team! Most stars can't do this.
In fact, I strongly do not recommend that Bournemouth let Bai Ye go. Obviously Bai Ye definitely has the ability to become the core of a team for decades!
pity,
As a rising star, Bournemouth does not have enough stage for Bai Ye to display himself.
A player like him should go to a team that can compete in the Champions League. He wants to conquer Europe! And not just in England. "
The fan's words were echoed by many Bournemouth players.
Of course, what they most agree with is not to let Bai Ye go. They all hope that Bai Ye will stay and become a legend of Bournemouth.
But everyone knows that this is impossible.
In the stands of DW Stadium, an old man with gray hair stood up and left the stadium private room with a calm expression. Behind him was a young man.
This is Wigan Athletic owner David Whelan, and his grandson David Sharp.
Whelan shook his head helplessly. As a team owner, it became increasingly difficult for him to accept the current situation of the team. He wanted to change everything, but he was old and had no energy to care about it.
Whelan is almost eighty years old this year!
Whelan is a man who loves football.
He was also a professional player. In the 1960 FA Cup final between Blackburn Rovers and Wolves, Dave Whelan, who played for Blackburn Rovers, was injured at the end of the first half and his leg was severely deformed.
When he regained consciousness, he learned that his team had lost 0-3 and that the championship trophy was on its way to Wolves' home stadium, Molineux Stadium. For Whelan, the sense of loss was even stronger than the pain of a broken leg, and this feeling has stayed with him ever since.
This injury prevented Whelan from achieving greater success in his career, but God still treated him well. After retiring, he grew up in Wigan and made a fortune relying on supermarket chains and sports goods retailing, and eventually became the owner of Wigan Athletic.
However, the experience of breaking his leg has always been the most conspicuous label on him, and it is the talk of Wigan men, women and children after dinner.
He also led Wigan Athletic, which had been in the lower leagues, to its peak, not only entering the Premier League, but also winning the FA Cup!
But now, in his later years, Wigan Athletic, just like his original career, has begun to decline off a cliff!
"Maybe we should do something, but I'm old." Whelan was walking in front and suddenly looked back at his grandson David Sharp. When the latter heard these words, he nodded slightly, and then saw Huilan looking at him with doubts.
"So, there are some things that should be done by young people."
Regardless of whether David Sharp understood what he said, Whelan walked out of the stadium as if he had made a decision.
When he walked out of the stadium, he seemed to be ten years older in an instant. The football he loved was leaving him, but he could no longer choose another way to embrace football like he did decades ago.
He is old and he has no energy.
At this time in the Bournemouth locker room, Eddie Howe was very satisfied with the team's performance, praised the players' performance, and also drew up the tactics for the second half.
"Bai Ye also needs to take turns to rest, and you have to have someone to support you."
Eddie Howe decided to replace Bai Ye in the second half, so he joked towards the other players.
Suman was the first to say: "If it were someone else, we could still go up. If it's Bai Ye, forget it. Even if he gives me a leg, I can't pass the ball as accurately as him."
"Hahaha!"
The laughter of other players suddenly appeared in the locker room. It was indeed true. Everyone had seen Bai Ye's passing before. It was so accurate!
soon.
Halftime is over.
Players from both sides returned to the court again and prepared to start the second half of the game.
Wigan Athletic's players still had worried expressions on their faces. For them, they really didn't want to be abused in the second half.
But when they saw the changes in Bournemouth's lineup, they felt much better!
Bai Ye is finished!
For the Wigan Athletic players, facing a three-goal deficit, it would be impossible to say that they had no intention of tying the score. But if you think you can tie it, you are overestimating your own strength.
But without Bai Ye, there is a high probability that Bournemouth's offense will not be as desperate as the first half.
Sure enough, after the game restarted, Bournemouth still used defensive counterattack tactics, but their counterattack efficiency was much worse than when Bai Ye was on the court.
The Wigan Athletic players breathed a sigh of relief, but their own offense was also disorganized.
McKay didn't even enter the locker room during halftime.
Bai Ye sat on the bench and watched the rest of the game closely with his teammates. Although he has ended, the director will always focus the camera on Bai Ye.
Bai Ye tonight is definitely the best player on both sides! 100% sure to be the best player in a single round!
And Bournemouth, without Bai Ye, has become ordinary in the eyes of the fans.
The commentary broadcasting this game in England said: "After Bai Ye came off the field, Bournemouth's offense did not have the same suppressive power as in the first half. If Wigan Athletic did not seize the opportunity themselves, Bournemouth would have lost the opportunity at this time. The ball has been dropped.
Of course, if it is a team that can seize such an opportunity, I believe Bai Ye will not be substituted. It can only be said that Wigan Athletic is hard to win!
I believe everyone can hear the dissatisfaction of Wigan Athletic fans with head coach McKay in the background sound of the broadcast. I don’t know how long McKay can stay with the team.
But no matter what, it is already difficult for Wigan Athletic to win today's game. And I didn’t see from Wigan’s second half that they were lagging behind.
The players don't look like they're going to do whatever it takes to win.
When failure becomes normal, the soul of this team will be gone! "
The explanation is indeed correct.
The home team fans at DW Stadium, in the second half, as time went on, more and more fans left.
If Bournemouth had players like Bai Ye in the first half and it was excusable to lose the game, then in the second half after Bai Ye went down, Wigan Athletic players still did not show that energy.
The fans really can't stand it anymore, they don't want to watch such a game again.
By the 80th minute, there were probably less than half of the fans left at the start of the game in the entire DW Stadium.
finally.
Amid the boos from the remaining fans, the injury time ended and the referee blew the whistle to end the game.
In the end, the two sides ended the game with a score of 2-5.
The two teams accomplished completely opposite things.
One team has a winning streak and the other team has a losing streak!
McKay still left the field without waiting for Eddie Howe to shake his hand.
After the game.
Eddie Howe faced reporters' questions and said: "Yes, we chose a large rotation lineup for tonight's game. We didn't necessarily want to take away three points from here. Being able to win tonight is an extra surprise. Facts I originally planned to rotate Bai Ye, but he didn't want to. I wanted more games, and he was eager to win.
I believe that it is this belief that helped Bai Ye and the team win. Maintaining the desire to win is the foundation of a team. Fortunately, we have this desire, while some teams do not. "
Later, when talking about McKay leaving the game early and not choosing to shake hands, Eddie Howe replied: "This is normal. When he was investigated by the FA some time ago, he showed that he was not a gentleman. I won't Blame him, after all, my mother taught me to be a gentleman since I was a child. Whether on the court or in life. And obviously, some people don't have a mother."
When Eddie Howe said this, he was basically going against McKay and breaking his skin, but Eddie Howe said these words without any hesitation. McKay's previous remarks and his attitude towards Bai Ye made him willing to do this.
The match between Wigan Athletic and Bournemouth did not receive much response from the English media. Basically, only the local media where the two teams were located would report on the match. Most mainstream media will only mention Bai Ye's name and say that he led the team to another victory.
Fans from both sides basically didn't pay attention to the game itself. From the perspective of the scene, this game was not exciting.
As the Bournemouth team prepares for their next league game at home against Derby County.
Bai Ye saw a message from social media.
In fact, it was not because he saw it on his own initiative, but because he found that his account had been liked by many people.
The news is simple: Wigan's opponent in the last game, Wigan's current economic chairman, will pass the club chairmanship to David Sharp across generations. David Sharp raised his sword and announced on the same day that he had fired McKay, who had not led the team beyond the relegation zone since taking office mid-season, and replaced him with Gary Cardwell, a former central defender who had only retired for two months to coach the team.
Bai Ye didn't even expect that McKay would leave get out of class immediately!
Even the chairman of Wigan Athletic has been replaced!
Fans also commented on social media.
"Bai Ye is really awesome! What coach is this for?! He has become a coach killer and directly kicked the other team's head coach out of class!"
"McKay should have been dismissed a long time ago! During his coaching period, the team only won one game! And it has been deep in the relegation zone. I don't know why Wigan Athletic can keep him for so long."
