Seeing Matthew Taylor opening the scoring for Tottenham, the stands at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium suddenly erupted in enthusiastic cheers. Almost 80% of the fans were applauding Matthew Taylor's wonderful direct free kick! Obviously, after witnessing the violent playing style of Bolton players, most neutral fans began to favor Tottenham and became Tottenham supporters!

"Haha, how about it? Now you bastard have nothing to say, right?" Standing not far from Kevin Davis, Dawson smiled maliciously, "Did you see that, this is The gap between you and us! No matter how many dirty tricks you use, the final victory belongs to us, Tottenham Hotspur!"

"Shut the hell up!" Hearing Dawson's ridicule, Kevin Davis' already extremely ugly face suddenly turned even worse. He replied angrily, and at the same time he cheered like a demonstration. He flexed his muscles and acted like he would take action if he disagreed.

"Tsk tsk, you are indeed a Bolton player. He knows how to start a fight." As if he did not see the threat from Davis, Dawson continued to taunt the opponent, "Look, you don't look like a player now." Professional player, if you weren't wearing this jersey, I would have paid protection fees for you. I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Even if you were wearing this jersey, I'm afraid not many people would think you are a professional. Player. After all, your appearance and temperament do look similar to those hooligans who hang out on the streets."

"I told you, shut up!" How could Kevin Davis, who has a fiery personality, withstand such a provocation? Even though he has played professional football for many more years than Dawson and has much more game experience than the latter, once he is stimulated by his opponents, his performance is not even as good as Dawson, a fledgling rookie. At least, when faced with Davis' provocation before, Dawson was not in such a rage that he was in danger of losing his mind again.

So, Davis, whose reason was covered up by anger, strode towards Dawson's position, cursing in his mouth, and stretched out his hand, ready to attack Dawson directly!

Seeing Kevin Davis' move, no other Tottenham players had any intention of stepping forward to stop him. Dawson even stood there without evading, waiting for Davis to take the initiative!

Although he has not responded to Davis's bad behavior before, this does not mean that Dawson does not want to retaliate against him. Under the influence of veterans such as Poyet and Speed, young Dawson understood the fact early on that the best way to fight back was not to compete with the opponent in fists and kicks, but to defeat the opponent. At the same time, he will not be punished at all!

To be honest, although Kevin Davis can be regarded as a villain, his level and threat in this field are obviously much worse than those of Roy Keane and Dennis Wise. If Dawson was facing Roy Keane or Dennis Wise now, no matter how brave Dawson was, he would not dare to say such a thing.

"Kevin, are you crazy?!" Seeing Davis walking in the direction of Dawson with an unkind look on his face, Djorkaeff realized that something was wrong and rushed forward immediately, hugging his waist. Strike partner, "Calm down! If you take action now, you will definitely get another yellow card. In this case, we will have to fight with ten people!"

"Let me go, Yuri (Djorkaeff)!" Kevin Davis, who was already furious, obviously did not listen to Djorkaeff's advice and still struggled to move in the direction of Dawson, "I must Teach this nasty boy a lesson!"

"What are you still doing? Come here and help!" Djorkaeff, who will turn thirty-six in a few days, is naturally no match for Kevin Davis in his prime, so After discovering that it was basically impossible to stop Davis's actions by himself, the French veteran immediately called other teammates over to prevent things from developing in an irreversible direction.

Djorkaeff's reminder made many Bolton players who were in a state of panic finally react. So everyone hurriedly rushed forward and pushed Davis back before the referee intervened. Finally, the situation was not headed in the worst direction.

However, despite this, Weber later called Davis in front of him and warned him. With a bright future in the English refereeing world, he does not want any trouble in this League Cup final to have a negative impact on his future refereeing career. Therefore, Webb naturally had to keep a close eye on the Bolton players who had been extremely restless from the beginning of the game and made great movements on the court.

Matthew Taylor's goal opened things up for Spurs but also put the Bolton players in a dilemma. After all, if Tottenham have not scored before, then they can still insist on defensive counterattack tactics and wait patiently for opportunities. And now, Bolton has become a side that is lagging behind, so it would be a bit useless to continue to insist on defensive counterattacks, because Tottenham Hotspur, who is leading the score, will definitely not choose to take the initiative in this situation!

Therefore, the Bolton players had no choice but to take the initiative to attack Tottenham's goal after the game restarted, hoping to equalize the score as soon as possible and bring the two teams back to the same starting line.

However, this expectation of Bolton players is destined to be disappointed. Because about seven or eight minutes had passed after Matthew Taylor opened the scoring for Tottenham, and the goal guarded by Jaaskelainen was once again penetrated by a Tottenham player!

This time it was Luca Toni who contributed to Tottenham. The Italian center received a cross from Darren Anderton in the penalty area, leaned on Thom who was in charge of marking him, turned and volleyed with his right foot, changing the score to 2-0!

Due to the relationship between taking the initiative and Weber adjusting the scale of the whistle, Bolton's defense naturally could not be as tight as at the beginning of the game, allowing Tottenham players to get more offensive space during the game. In this way, it will be up to Bolton players to make up for this shortcoming through their individual abilities. However, in terms of personal ability, especially given the position of Ivan Campo, Thom and Ngoti are no match for Luca Toni one-on-one. And if a two-person flanking attack is adopted, then it is very likely that Basturk, Ribery and others will be given the opportunity to attack!

Although under the painstaking management of Allardyce, Bolton's overall strength has improved significantly compared with when they were promoted to the Premier League three years ago, the lack of personal ability of the players is still the main reason that restricts Bolton's further development. Judging from the current situation, it is obviously difficult for Bolton to find players who meet their requirements in the UK. After all, what Bolton fans did after the Munich air disaster has still not been forgiven by the British. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult for Bolton to find capable players in the British Isles!

It is for this reason that when Bolton's overall defense had problems, the "Quick Horse" (Bolton's nickname) defense was immediately riddled with holes by Tottenham!

The harsh scale of whistleblowing has an impact on Bolton not only on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end. Allardyce's team also encountered a lot of trouble!

"Damn it, why is this bastard referee just staring at me and blowing the whistle!" Kevin Davis can be said to have been quite depressed during this time. You know, what Davis is best at is using his brutal and dirty style of play and insidious little moves to get the opponent's defender, thereby creating scoring opportunities for himself or his teammates. But now, under the loving care of Howard Webb, who is the referee of this game, Davis, who is tied up in the game, has no way to perform. Not only can he not create scoring opportunities, but he can't play the role required by Allardyce. Containment and cover!

It's no wonder, after all, the main trick Kevin Davis uses to divert the opponent's defensive attention is his rough and brutal style of play. Now, this trick was directly blocked by Webber in this game, allowing Dawson to completely target Davis alone, resulting in the latter's destructiveness to Tottenham's defense and greatly reducing his tactical role in the game.

Without Davis's restraint on the forward line, it will naturally be difficult for the two veterans, Djorkaeff and Okocha, to get a chance to perform. After all, these two are both skilled players, and their physical fitness is quite average, and their aging ability has caused their confrontation ability to plummet. Therefore, facing the defensive system that Allegri carefully built for Tottenham, it is naturally difficult for Djorkaeff and Okocha to get the space to display their personal talents.

Although Djorkaeff was exposed to Italian football when he was playing for Inter Milan and had a strong performance of scoring 14 Serie A goals in a single season, not to mention the bravery of the hero, the current Djorkaeff is no longer the one who followed France. The main member of the team that won consecutive World Cup and European Cup championships is just a veteran who is about to retire.

The offense could not open up the situation, and the defensive end was greatly restricted due to the penalty scale. Although this League Cup final is not over yet, anyone with a discerning eye can see that unless a miracle happens, Bolton's fate is basically determined now!

In the 71st minute of the game, Tottenham completed the final blow against Bolton - another cross from Darren Anderton and another pass from Luca Toni in the penalty area. However, this time the latter did not choose to hit the goal directly. Instead, under the three-man double-team of Ngodi, Thom and Campo, he calmly distributed the ball to Basturk who came from behind. The Turks got The ball was passed crosswise without stopping, and Poyet, who followed up from the other side, succeeded in volleying from the top of the arc on the right side of the penalty area, three to zero!

If there are players who have worked with Toni in Brescia watching this game now, they will definitely find that in the more than half a year of playing for Tottenham, Toni has made great progress in supporting and breaking double-team defenses. . If Tony could show such ability in Brescia before, then George might not necessarily be able to bring Tony from Brescia to White Hart Lane last summer.

Finally, when Howard Webber blew the whistle to announce the end of the game, a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers erupted from the stands at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. You don't need to think about it to know that this must be Tottenham fans celebrating the team's success in the English League Cup again after four years!
