    Chapter 134: Another rain battle

    The shooting of Songbird Real Estate was very successful. In fact, this type of shooting is not strenuous. It only took Ouyang Ao half a day to complete the shooting of Songbird Real Estate. He only had to stand in front of the camera and hold a football.  Then just say the prepared lines to the camera, and leave the rest to the technicians.

    After the shooting, Ouyang Ao secretly sighed that the money was so good. The price of the contract offered by Karen was a full seven figures, and it only took him half a day to earn the money. This is really amazing.  It's a bit amazing.

    Although Ouyang Ao and Karen are actually the same, getting this money is equivalent to taking Karen's money, but Karen is a wealthy daughter, Ouyang Ao doesn't think there is anything wrong with this, and besides, for this  The problem is that Karen, who has always spent a lot of money, is even more so-called. In her words: You are shooting for my father's company, so the money belongs to my father and has nothing to do with me, so you don't have to have any psychological burden.

    Karen said so, so Ouyang Ao was not polite, and the money was quickly transferred to Ouyang Ao's account.

    During this period, he and Helen had become more and more frequent. This rich daughter seemed to like to talk about football with Ouyang Ao. Of course, this may have something to do with Karen's love of street football. Ouyang Ao is not arrogant.  She thinks that the rich girl chats with her more because she likes

    Due to the conflict between the FA Cup and the league schedule, and considering the fatigue of the players, the Football Association gave this league a bye. This also gave Ouyang Ao a rare leisure, but this leisure did not last long.  , the new round of the league is quietly approaching. Although Sheffield Wednesday defeated Northampton with a big score of 4:0 in the FA Cup and entered the next round, they have not won in the league for more than a month.  Well, for Sheffield Wednesday who are fighting on two fronts this season, this league round is undoubtedly important, and the fans are also eager for the team to continue to use a victory as a booster.

    In the fifth round of the English First Division, Sheffield Wednesday faced Tranmere at home.  This game is crucial for Sheffield Wednesday, which is micron on the league front, so the tickets for this game were snapped up by fans early.

    Today, the Hillsborough Stadium was full, and the enthusiastic Sheffield Wednesday fans sang the team song early. They hope to cheer for their beloved team in this way.

    Although Sheffield Wednesday had the home advantage in this game, it was not favored by the media because Sheffield Wednesday had a large number of injuries. Most of the main players were injured, and Ashley Young was missing among them.  Let Sheffield Wednesday's strength be greatly reduced.

    "John has to face a lot of problems today. The absence of players is one aspect. In addition, Tranmere has been in great form recently. Let's see if John can continue his luck and form in the FA Cup last week at home today"

    The commentator of this game is still supporting Sheffield Wednesday's Altkinson. Regarding the current situation of Sheffield Wednesday, this famous commentator also seems to be extremely worried.

    However, something happened before the game. It was originally sunny, but an hour before the game, it actually started to rain over Sheffield.

    "Today's weather is very bad" Ouyang Ao's face in the locker room was gloomy, just like the weather outside at this moment.  "It's raining outside and the temperature has dropped a lot. This is really bad news for us, but I still ask you to control the ball more?"

    Indeed, the rain disrupted the team's deployment. Two hours ago, the sky over Sheffield was clear and clear. Just a few hours later, the sky became gloomy and gloomy. In the evening, the rain began to fall.

    But there are many fans at Hillsborough Stadium to cheer for the home team, and there are also sporadic Tranmere supporters in the stands. Compared with the fans on Sheffield Wednesday, they are almost negligible.

    In the absence of Hamsik, Ashley Young and Evra, Ouyang Ao made relatively big changes to the team's lineup. Today he unexpectedly arranged a two-forward formation. The two forwards are on top.  In the first round, Dzeko and Italian veteran Hubner performed well in the FA Cup, and the attacking midfielder position behind them was taken by Yaya Toure. The only defensive midfielder was captain Krieger, and the two wings were  Hubby and Richard, the four defenders are Maicon, Cahill, Skrtel and Kolarov.

    Tranmere's head coach, Scot Les Parry, also attaches great importance to this game. Although they are currently advancing in the standings and ranking in the top three, this season Les also has the same desire for honors as Ouyang Ao.  and the ambition to win the championship, so they also fielded the strongest lineup for this game.

    Tranmere¡¯s two most important acquisitions this summer are the Senegalese international striker Toto, who was introduced from the Portuguese Ligue 1 Disings.Maas Sovenmi, as well as goalkeeper Owen Williams introduced from the Swedish Bundesliga Vannamer team.  These are two highly targeted acquisitions. Thomas replaced the Dutch striker Martin Devaney, who was acquired in a record acquisition last season, but he only scored 4 goals for Tranmere.  Owen will replace veteran goalkeeper Andy Coughlin who retired last season.  From the perspective of formation, Tranmere's personnel structure is obviously much stronger than Sheffield Wednesday.

    Last season, Rice played the same lineup for 9 consecutive rounds, setting a new record in League One.  In this game, Rice still used his usual 4-4-2 tactics in the game, and continued to use almost the same lineup of players: Ian Goodson and Dane Parker partnered as central defenders, David Buchan and  Robbie Ridgewell plays on the wings, with core figures Lucas Adkins and Darren McGuirk partnering in the midfield, while young shooter David LaVine is likely to partner Thomas on the front line.

    The game started quickly with the referee's whistle. Tranmere, who were playing away from home, started to attack as soon as they came up. Their start to the season was quite bad. The consecutive victories made Tranmere habitually start to take the lead.  This is also Rice's plan before the game. Sheffield Wednesday has not tasted victory in the league for a month, so he hopes that his disciples can overwhelm their opponents in momentum as soon as they take the field.

    Tranmere¡¯s players obviously did the same. In the rain and fog, Senegalese international Thomas fired the first shot of the game.

    The ball was shot too high and was held in Bilal's arms. However, Tranmere's attack also aroused the dissatisfaction of Ouyang Ao on the sidelines. He shouted to Skrtel loudly: "Martin, cheer up and pay attention to you."  defensive area"

    The Tranmere attack just now started from Skrtel's guard.

    The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the venue was becoming more and more slippery. Looking up at the dark clouds over Hillsborough, Ouyang Ao vaguely felt an ominous sign.

    The slippery field was a disaster for Sheffield Wednesday, who were good at ground penetration. Sure enough, in the next twenty minutes of the game, they could not find any way to attack, and Tranmere's defense shrunk.  Like an iron wall, the two forwards Dzekobi and Hubner, who continues to be in sluggish form, were completely frozen by their opponents, while Yaya Toure behind them was basically busy defending and was unable to provide sufficient support to the striker.  .

    "It seems that this game is a bit difficult for Sheffield Wednesday. The slippery turf seems to make them very uncomfortable, especially without the core midfielder Marek. Sheffield Wednesday's midfield is simply paralyzed.  , Yaya Toure is a good player, but he did not play his role at all today. He was frozen by the opponent, lacking the operation of the central axis, and the two forwards in front did not get the slightest chance.  "Alkinson, the commentator of this game, said with some worry.  As a supporter of Sheffield Wednesday, Altkinson is naturally a little concerned when seeing the team he supports in trouble.

    ??Compared to Sheffield Wednesday, Tranmere played more smoothly in the away game. The slippery venue did not cause them any trouble, because they have a high center forward Thomas who is 1.96 meters tall in their formation.

    Thomas is an out-and-out giant center. His career started in a small club in Senegal. After moving to several clubs, Thomas came to Portugal to join the Portuguese Liga team Disings.  Fans who are familiar with the Portuguese Serie A must still talk about the classic combination of Disings, one tall and one fast, that season. The Frenchman Dickla and Thomas, a pair of forward partners with a huge difference in height, led the underappreciated Disings together.  It reached second place in the Portuguese League that year.  Thomas' outstanding performance also attracted the interest of many clubs. In the end, the Dutch Eredivisie team Utrecht spent a huge sum of money to introduce the Senegalese striker.  However, their marriage is not sweet. Utrecht's wings more often choose to cut in or cross from an inverted triangle. In this style of play, the Senegalese giant has no place at all.  Thomas, who was acclimated in the Netherlands, was loaned back to Disings. However, after returning to the Portuguese Liga, he used 13 goals in 19 games to help Disings successfully avoid relegation after a poor start. This summer, Tranmere finally  Thomas was brought to England for five million pounds.  Unlike British high center forwards, Thomas not only can act as a bridgehead, but also has the ability to move forward.  His feet are unstoppable, and his speed is one of the best among long-man centers.  As an indispensable and important link in Rice's tactical system, he is the core of the team's offensive attack.

    Today, the Senegalese played a very good role as a bridgehead. In the wet and slippery conditions, Tranmere adopted more long-pass tactics. Their tactics were very simple, that is, to find Thomas on the striker, and then let him  Get the first point, or give the ball to your teammates, or find a way to shoot.

    Although this tactic is extremely simple, it is extremely effective in rainy weather. Cahill, who is responsible for guarding Thomas, is almost half shorter in height.??5 cm. In the 25 minutes of the first half, Cahill's defensive pressure was extremely heavy. He was so tired that he almost couldn't breathe due to his frequent fights with Thomas for high balls.

    Fortunately, Slovak central defender Skrtel was also on hand to help defend, so he was barely able to withstand Tranmere's successive attacks.

    But the good times didn¡¯t last long. Sheffield Wednesday finally scored towards the end of the first half.

    Tranmere's core midfielder Lucas intercepted the ball in the midfield, and then made a precise long pass to find Thomas at the forward point. The Senegalese blocked Cahill who was defending him well this time, and then jumped high  The ball flew towards the right side of Sheffield Wednesday's penalty area.  Since Skrtel on the right side was assisting Cahill in defending Thomas, the right side was already being guarded at this time, and the ball landed in a blank area.

    Thomas¡¯s strike partner David rushed over and hit the ball into Sheffield Wednesday¡¯s net one step ahead of Bilal¡­

    1:0 Tranmere scored a goal
