Chapter 180: End of the first half (34/155+13)

Chapter 180 The End of the First Half
There were no goals in the first half of the game until the 30th minute.
This was actually expected by the English media before the game. Luton's defense was excellent, and Roma also used a defensive counterattack as the core tactic.
Two teams that are better at defensive meet together, isn't it the current situation?
But in general, Rome has the advantage on the scene.
In the 38th minute of the game, Perrotta got the ball near the penalty zone line and stuffed the ball into the ribs. After Tadei came up, Schmeichel blocked the goal with a direct shot.
Then De Rossi from the perimeter also took a shot and hit Kanter, who was defending, and went out of the sideline.
The Roma team continued their offensive.
Gao Bo's expression on the sidelines is still very solemn.
It is hard to imagine that such a Roma would actually lose to Basel on the road? How bad should Rome's state be some time ago.
However, no matter what happened to Rome some time ago, the current state of Rome is still very good.
In the 40th minute of the game, Luton also tried an attack. Griezmann got the ball from the outside, and then he faced a dense crowd in the penalty area of ​​Rome.
Griezman had to divide the ball to the right, and then Kevin Keane tried a cross and was pushed out by a Roma player.
Drinkwater’s volley from the outer periphery hit the defensive player and bounced back. As a result, Drinkwater was about to stop the ball. Bridget came up and squeezed Drink with his body. Walt squeezed to the side and then snatched the ball!
But then Kanter also came up. He directly shoveled the ball away from Brigitte's feet. After taking the ball, Drinkwater was ready to hand it to Griezmann in front of him. As a result, the ball was cut off by Mex. After that, Meeks made a long pass directly to find Menez on the side.
Menez stopped the ball to the center, and then directly talked about a burst shot with his right foot while Kanter and others had not returned to the defense.
The football was saved by Schmeichel again.
Roma's corner kick!
From the results of the entanglement between the two sides in the midfield, it can be seen that Roma's strength is still above Luton. Roma has shot several times, but Luton's offensive threat is not too great. Even with card bonuses, Luton is dominated by young players after all. In addition to talented players such as Griezmann and Kanter, the other young players' game experience and personal strength are still Can't keep up with the current batch of players in Rome.
When Menez kicked the corner kick, Gao Bo felt bad.
Roma has a lot of players involved in corner kicks, and Ranieri also attaches great importance to the offense of set kicks. When the other players rushed forward, the central defender Juan, who was ambushing behind the point, walked around the penalty spot, then headed the ball directly, and the football bounced into the net.
Due to the large number of people in the penalty area, Schmeichel has nothing to do with this ball.
When Gao Bo saw Juan staring at the goal, he kicked the water bottle next to him.
The angry Gao Bo couldn't say anything about the ball. Roma's corner kick attack made Luton fail to keep up with the rhythm.
At this time, it became clear that Sol Campbell's importance in the defensive line became apparent. An experienced central defender can make up for many of these gaps.
It's just that Jeffrey and George Parker are still young, which is probably the price of youth.
After losing the ball, the Luton players were very frustrated, while the Roma players after the goal ran to the corner flag area and celebrated under the noses of Luton fans.
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!!!"
The Italian commentator stretched the tone, yelling almost without breathing. "Nice goal!!! Roma scored a goal!!! From central defender Juan!!!"
Letkinson has a look of regret: "Luton lost the ball. In this corner defense, Luton's central defense showed a major flaw. They were all taken away by other Roma players in the penalty area. I ignored Juan who came up after the point!!"
"Zero to one!! Luton fell behind at home!!! Losing the ball in the final stage of the first half is not a good thing for Luton. There is not much time left for them to equalize in the first half. And if you return to the locker room with a goal behind, the second half of the game is not good for Lutons to play. Ranieri is a scheming guy, and his team is best at playing this leading ball. "Redknapp also looked serious on one side.
.......
"It's a pity! Luton's defense was not in place this time, giving the Roma center defender Juan a chance to header in the penalty area. Luton lost the ball!! Gao Bo's team fell behind Roma zero to one at home. The situation of Luton is very difficult for Luton. Roma itself is a very strong team, and now that they have taken the lead, the game will become more difficult to play." He Hongfa’s voice from the TV Came.
"Damn!!!"
Old Chen patted his thigh.
"Lost the ball?"
Mrs. Chen asked from the side.
Old Chen nodded, and then he asked tentatively: "Why don't you sleep until the little tall boy's team scores?"
"Of course, little Gaozi, come on!!!"
Mrs. Chen didn't seem to be sleepy anymore.
...
Ranieri raised his arms and turned to celebrate with his assistants. During this time, Ranieri was under great pressure because the Roma team had already suffered consecutive defeats.
This goal gave Ranieri a sigh of relief. If he lost to Luton in the away game, Ranieri really didn't know what would happen after returning to Italy....Roma's results are already all the way. Falling down, Ranieri needs a victory.
Gao Bo calmed down quickly after losing the ball, and he checked the time.
It is the 41st minute of the first half of the game, about five minutes before the end of the first half.
Many more conservative coaches may first stabilize these five minutes, and then think of a solution in the second half.
But this does not include Gao Bo.
When necessary, Gao Bo went crazy!
Five minutes! !
Enough to organize a wave of offensive! !
Gao Bo waved his hand from the sidelines, and then Luton began to press and attack!
Both full-backs were over halftime! !
The Roma team, who had just scored a goal, was taken aback by Luton's sudden crazy offensive, but they quickly reacted.
Roma recovered across the board, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, while Luton launched a crazy counterattack after losing the ball!
In the forty-third minute of the game, Sandro made a cooperation with Adam on the left, and then the Brazilian drove the ball into the penalty area!
He looked at the dense crowd in the penalty area, and then decided to kick it himself!
Sandro shoots directly from a small angle with his left foot!
This shot shocked the Roma team up and down. Fortunately, Roma goalkeeper Lobonte stood firmly and he directly blocked the ball from the baseline.
Luton's corner kick came out quickly.
Griezman made a tactical corner kick and gave it to Adam's feet, then he bypassed behind Adam and passed directly to the back point.
Kevin Keane took off at the back point and competed with the Roma players for the header, but Roma central defender Meeks was even better. He pushed the ball over Kevin Keane's head.
But the perimeter Kanter easily defeated De Rossi ~EbookFREE.me~ and Kanter crossed the ball to Griezmann's feet when he was fighting for the second spot.
Griezmann stopped, and after passing Burdisso, he chose to shoot near the top of the arc.
The football passed between the densely packed legs in the penalty area, and then was thrown out by goalkeeper Robonte! !
"Luton reacted with quite a fierce offensive!!!"
Letkinson got excited in the commentary.
The fans on the scene cheered loudly. The fans all stood up from their seats. They sang and cheered from time to time, using the warm home atmosphere to add firewood to the home team's attack! !
In the final stage of the first half, Roma was almost out of breath by Luton's crazy offensive.
In the end, the referee's whistle saved Rome.
After Vardy's turn around shot missed in the penalty area, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half.
