Chapter 58 I like this kind of team

Chapter 58: I like this team

Peterborough is a very mediocre team. The mediocrity here does not mean that they are not up and down in the English League Two now, but that this team has no record in history. Except for the two English League C (the past English League One) champions, they have no experience in the top league. This is also a strange thing in the history of English professional clubs. The English League has a long history, and many teams that are now unknown are

There have been brilliant moments in history, such as Huddersfield City, the team that is now in the English League One is the first team in England's top league history to win three consecutive championships in the top league, and for example, the earliest professional football club Sheffield Football Club. Even a certain team that has been in the English League for a long time, has entered the English League and defeated Manchester United, the top league champion that year, and has also entered the FA Cup quarterfinals...

Of course, Preston also belongs to this kind of team that "has been rich in ancestors". At least he has won two top league championships and two FA Cup championships, not to mention the first English top league champion. The first double champion of the English top league championship and FA Cup championship in the same season - the English Football History Museum is located at Preston's home court, Pudell Stadium, which is the best compliment to them.

Compared with Preston, Peterborough was never richer than his ancestors, and he is now a civilian.

However, this season, Peterborough is not mediocre - their defense is very poor, and the personal abilities of several defenders are average and their cooperation is average, but their offense is quite outstanding. Left winger Howard and two forwards Challery and Williams are in excellent condition. Challery is now the first player in the League Two scorers list. He scored thirteen goals in the 18th round of the league, with a very high goal rate. Howard is ranked first in the assist list. In the game, he has given ten assists to his teammates. In addition, a young shooter Williams who has scored nine goals, Peterborough can still be ranked in the middle class if he concedes nearly two goals per game on average.

It is undeniable that watching Peterborough games this season is often very enjoyable, because they always score a lot of goals in the game, and the game is full of big openings and closings, with a very fast offense and defense pace, which makes people feel very comfortable to watch. Therefore, although this team has not performed well, it is quite popular locally. Even many fans of the League Two teams like to watch Peterborough's offensive tactics, including some Preston fans. Of course, if Preston meets Peterborough, they will still support Preston.

After entering the stadium, there were huge cheers from Peterborough fans over the home court, and it was obvious that they liked the team very much.

This huge heartfelt cheer is the source of progress for a low-level English team!

Preston's players were somewhat suppressed by this momentum, but Tiger did not. When playing in the main god space, the opponent's fans were also at the level of fanaticism. He had seen many such scenes, so amid the cheers of the fans of the audience, he was still looking at the opponent's players leisurely, and suddenly laughed as he looked at them.

"Tiger, why are you laughing at?" Grant, who was standing in front of Tiger, asked strangely. He was two years younger than Tiger, and he had no worries when he spoke. Nogan also looked at Tiger, but he was five or six years older than Tiger, and he could not ask for some words so easily.

"Peterborough seems very popular." Tiger did not answer positively, but said this. Norgan curled his lips and turned his head over.

"Yes, they scored more goals, so fans naturally liked to watch it." Grant replied casually.

"That's right, so I like this team too." Tiger laughed: "They like attack, and the gap in the backcourt will be very large. This is exactly where we can use it and can make us score more goals. So how can I not like this team?"

Grant was stunned and then laughed - indeed, for their offensive players, they like this kind of opponent, but for the defensive players, it may not be...

Even Nogan, who turned his head, couldn't help laughing. Yes, he also likes such a team the most...

"Would you teach them a lesson with offense, okay?" Tiger said to his two forward partners. Grant immediately applauded. Nogan did not answer, but nodded heavily.

In this game, Moyes sent a starting lineup exactly the same as in the second half of the last game. Goalkeeper Mims. Although he made a low-level mistake in the last game, he is still an indispensable goalkeeper for Preston. The defender Moyes is partnered with the young central defender Squiels, with Kidd and Spanore on both sides. They are not old. Except for Kidd who was promoted from the youth team four seasons ago, Squiels and Spanore were promoted to the first team with Tiger, but they had gained a foothold back then and Tiger failed to gain a foothold.

Midfielder Bryson and Barrett are paired with two midfielders, the left forward is Brian, and the right forward is Tiger's position is on the right forward, but everyone knows that he is attacking the midfielder, and the forward line is still the partner of Nogan and Grant.

After the game started, Peterborough, who was the first to kick off, immediately launched a fierce attack. Their offense focused on their left side, that is, Preston's right side.

This is obviously a targeted move by the opponent. Now Preston is actually only right defender Spanore on the right side of the field. Tiger's position is nominally a right forward, but in fact he plays an attacking midfielder. His defensive ability is also quite average.

Howton sprinted like a Fengchi Electric Engine on the left. He is a typical English winger with fast speed, strong breakthrough ability and excellent physical fitness.

In the speed battle, Spanore was soon defeated. He wanted to take the risk of tackle, but was accelerated by Howton and Preston opened the right hole!

"Focus on their striker, Paul, go back to the defense and make up for the right side!"

Moyes shouted loudly, and he ordered the opponent's number one shooter, Challery, handed Williams to Squiers, and then directed Barrett to return to defense and block the right.

Barrett quickly retreated. He had good physical fitness and fast sprinting speed, but the ball quotient was a little worse and it was difficult to form a tacit defensive understanding with his teammates. So Moyes told him to fill up the positions and sprint and sweep him, and to leave the matter of helping him wipe his butt to other teammates - this is also a solution that cannot be defeated.

Barrett, who returned to defense in time, blocked Howard's route into the penalty area. Originally, a breakthrough within a small range was not something that Howard was good at, so he immediately raised his foot and passed the ball out.

Preston's defender is never very afraid of this kind of high-altitude ball. Moyes is 1.86 meters tall, has rich experience and accurate judgment. Squiers is close to 1.9 meters tall and strong. This combination will not be afraid of crossing, not to mention that Howton's crossing level is not very high.

Moyes stuck his position, clamped Challery and made him unable to take off. Squiers at the back point jumped high and pushed the ball out.
