76 Derby's Counterattack
George clapped his hands on the sidelines, letting some frustrated players look at him. It's just a ball, and there is still time. It's no big deal. Chere me up."
However, the court is too noisy. Except for Camoranesi, which is very close to George, everyone else can't hear George's words clearly. But George understood all the gestures he pressed there.
"Steve, go up and replace Grant. Your main task is to keep an eye on Duff and let Neil help defend Duff. You can also see the characteristics of Duff. Stare at him closely. Don't show your feet casually, but look at him firmly. Don't worry about anything else, just watch Duff. And tell Mitchell that it's as I arranged before the game.
In the thirty-second minute, Steve Fennan went up and Grant went down.
"Grant, I'm sorry." This kind of changing players in the first half is very rare except for unexpected factors such as injuries and red cards. Grant is also Burnley's old servant, and George doesn't want Grant to have any other ideas.
Although it replaces Grant now, it does make Grant very faceless.
Grant's face is indeed very bad now, but he shook his head when he heard George's words. Sorry, George. It seems that I'm really old. Did I disrupt your plan? Grant smiled bitterly with a sorry smile.
George breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Grant's words. George patted Grant on the shoulder. Thank you, Grant."
Burnley, who restarted the ball, was not in a hurry, and his morale was not affected.
Although he scored a goal, Hodgson kept making pressing gestures on the sidelines. George squined at Hodgson's action and knew that Hodgson was really a little anxious. Blackburn's grades are very poor now, and Hodgson is indeed under a lot of pressure.
Before coaching Blackburn, Hodgson's coaching resume was very brilliant. He is also one of the candidates for the head coach of the England national team, but after Blackburn, Hodgson was like meeting Waterloo. Blackburn has only two victories in the Premier League so far.
Therefore, Hodgson is eager to defeat Burnley and improve Blackburn's morale.
However, Blackburn's middle road is still firmly suppressed by Burnley, and he can only continue to walk on the sidelines. But Ripley on the right can't recover his demeanor when he won the Premier League in front of Daniel. Daniel is an extraordinary left-back in terms of body, speed and technology.
After Finnan went up, he was nominally a right-back, but he hardly cared about his defensive position. Instead, it is close to Duff, although Duff is a genius. But Finnan has been exercising in the lower league for a long time, and all kinds of small moves and defenses have made Duff very uncomfortable.
However, Blackburn's attack was still focused on Duff, but this time Duff did not complete a dragon. Under the constant interference of Fennan, Duff staggered a little. It was snatched by Neil Lennon, and Neil Lennon passed it to Barak very quickly.
The moment Barak took the ball, Yongberi and Camoranesi, who were on the left and right sides, immediately scattered along the side road. Remove Blackburn's defense. For Blackburn, Yongberi and Camoranesi are Burnley's most important opponents at present.
The three people that Burnley needs to pay attention to that Hodgson points out before the game are Yongbery, Camoranesi and Barak. In fact, among the people Hodgson points out before the game was Robby Keane's, but it's a pity that George didn't let Robby Keane play. As for Klose, it seems to them that there is nothing but a header.
After Ballack took the ball, he did not pass it to the side as before. Suddenly, a pass came to the front.
Except for a few headers in this game, Klose, who did not perform much, suddenly had an offside and inserted diagonally. No one thought, including many Burnley fans, that Klose's speed would be so fast.
The moment he saw Klose rushing across the defense line, Hodgson stood up. Then he scolded Burnley, Burnley, you big liars, there is absolutely something wrong with the player data they provided. It says that Klose's 100-meter data is eleven seconds and eight seconds.
In fact, Hodgson wronged Burnley, and Klose's 100-meter speed is absolutely not fast. Compared with many strikers, the data is definitely not good-looking, but this is just written data. But in terms of starting speed and 30 meters sprint speed, Klose can be described as wind and lightning.
Klose's explosive power in an instant was very amazing. It was Hendley, the old captain of Blackburn, who reacted quickly and immediately returned to the defense. Unfortunately, Hendry is not only old, but also has no more explosive power than before.
Barack's pass penetrated Blackburn's defensive line. After Cloze took the ball, he was already the goalkeeper who faced Blackburn.
Flors saw that Klose was already single-knife, so he abandoned the door very decisively.
"Miro, I won't introduce a player casually. I introduced you because you have enough cultivation value. As long as you work hard, you can become a world-class striker. Milo, do you believe me?"
"Miro, I never talk big. Especially for my players, would you like to believe me and listen to me?"
Klose clearly remembers everything George said. If I can become a world-class striker, let's start from this moment. Klose was very firm in his heart. He did not pass the goalkeeper or shoot like other strikers, but shot angrily.
"Barack's pass... Klose. Wow, Klose's explosive power is so strong that he fell over all the Blackburn defenders at once.
"This is Burnley's best opportunity, Klose alone! He has entered the restricted area, and Flores has rushed out!"
"shoot! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!! Beautiful, this is a classic anti- offside.
Flores has actually judged correctly, but Klose's shot is fast and tricky, and he is still a ground ball. It's impossible for Flores to be tragic.
At the moment of scoring the goal, Klose was very excited and played another flip of his signature celebration. In fact, George warned Klose very early that he was not allowed to use such a celebration unless it was an important goal in an important game.
With Klose's front flip, Burnley fans in Ewood Park were boiling. The atmosphere of the red policy was completely ignited by the goal, while the Blackburn fans with the blue policy next to it were much quieter.
George, who had been standing on the sidelines and paying attention to the game, waved his hand fiercely after raising his hands and running for more than ten meters at the moment of Klose's goal. At this time, Blackburn's assistant coach came to George and pushed George.
Because George came to the Blackburn bench and raised his hands to celebrate, Hodgson next to him frowned tightly. This young coach is so unbred.
Evan Sawyer saw Blackburn's assistant coach pushing George and quickly pushed Black away.
The fourth referee saw the situation here and quickly came to pull them away.
"Coach Levy, you can celebrate over there." All referees have a headache for George now.
George is very happy, but he won't quarrel with the referee. So I quickly apologized to the fourth referee. Sorry, I'm just too excited. It's just running in the wrong direction.
"It's better to do this, Coach Levy."
George came to his bench on the advice of the fourth referee.
"Hahaha, Coach Levy can be the focus of the game in any game." Mortson laughed when he saw the clash between George and Blackburn's assistant coach.
"It's really a magic stroke to let Klose start in this game. Blackburn defender obviously didn't pay attention to Klose, and he didn't expect Klose to be so explosive. Klose's feet are a little rough, but the header is good and fast, and it is still very promising. Alan Hansen still appreciates Klose.
Morterson also nodded. Alan, everyone says that Klose is the worst player chosen by George. But who knows, maybe there is something in Klose that George value the most.
