    Chapter 679: An Unsatisfactory Victory

    "As referee Graham Barber blew the whistle at the end of the game, there were no huge cheers above St. James' Park. Yes, Newcastle did usher in their first victory of the new season at home.  , the ranking immediately rose to fifth, but this process is not satisfactory anyway"

    On August 24, the St. James Park Stadium was packed with people. Fifty thousand fanatical Newcastle fans occupied most of the stands, using their fanatical and loud singing to suppress the singing of more than a thousand visiting team Norwich fans.  It was almost inaudible. Although Newcastle's start to the new season was not smooth, the painful experiences in the past have already tempered the nerves of Newcastle fans to be extremely strong. This setback will not make them lose confidence in the team.

    What¡¯s more, today¡¯s opponent is just Norwich!  What's more, this game is at St. James' Park, which is considered "the most difficult home court to conquer" by the league!  How could it be possible to lose?  How could there not be a victory!

    "We are the European champions! We will definitely win!"

    This is not only the voice of Newcastle fans, but also the voice of Newcastle fans!

    Mourinho made some fine adjustments to the lineup in this game. Ibrahimovic suffered a minor injury. Mourinho put him on the bench. Veteran Larsson came on and Dyer replaced Jena.  Si appeared in the midfield, Janas was also slightly injured, and on the back line, Hart replaced Bernard's left back position.

    At the beginning of the game, Newcastle launched a fierce attack on the opponent's goal, and Norwich also played the role of a newly promoted team - all their players huddled in the penalty area and guarded their own goal.

    Newcastle was having a headache with this tactic. If they couldn't hit the middle, they could only break the deadlock through breakthroughs from the wing and long-range shots. The Newcastle fans in the stands booed loudly, but the Norwich players turned a deaf ear.  Still holding on with tactics that are so solid that they are almost ugly.

    Half an hour passed.  Newcastle still failed to create any good opportunities. Norwich did not invest much money in summer transfers. Danish veteran Helvig, who came on a free transfer from Inter Milan, is the number one star in their team, but  This team that was promoted from League One has inherited the tradition of the English team. All the players are tall and muscular, with big shoulders and round waists. When they poke into the penalty area, they are like meat pillars, blocking their own goal tightly.  Reality.

    Dyer¡¯s performance on the court was not good.  He was not able to provide much help to the forwards in the penalty area on the wing. Nie Fei had to pull to the wing again and again to let Newcastle's right wing fly. It was such a change of position that provided Newcastle  Brought the first goal.

    After passing the ball to Trabelsi, Nie Fei moved to the right. The captain of the Tunisian national team quickly passed the ball to him. Facing the opponent's defender who rushed towards him, Nie Fei did not bother with the opponent.  Instead, he passed the ball directly into the penalty area!

    The ball quickly flew into the penalty area. Shearer took a quick step in the penalty area, held the opponent's central defender behind him, then jumped high and flicked the ball!

    The ball accurately hit a small gap in the penalty area.  A figure wearing Newcastle's black and white sword-striped shirt quickly broke out from the crowd, flew into the air and volleyed the ball into the goal!

    Huge cheers immediately erupted over the St. James Park stadium. Larson's goal in the 40th minute ignited their enthusiasm!

    "Henrik Larsson! The Swedish veteran opened the door to victory for Newcastle! This is his first goal since joining in the summer! Keen, experienced, and smelly, Larsson showed his talent at this moment  The biggest feature! And the one who assists him is the 34-year-old Shearer and the 33-year-old Larsson. Newcastle¡¯s veteran combination shows its power! "

    This goal in the 40th minute was very timely. Norwich's previous defense was very good. If they can successfully maintain the tie until the end of the first half, it will be a big blow to their morale.  They were encouraged, but now they still conceded the ball after guarding for forty minutes, which will be a big blow to their psychology.

    ??????????????????? After the start of the second half, Norwich's defense was far less tight than in the first half. Robert's breakthrough won a corner kick. He took the corner kick himself and drove into the penalty area. Dawson, who assisted, rushed under Lucio's cover.  When he reached the front point, he shook his head powerfully to attack the goal, and the ball quickly flew into the upper left corner of the goal!

    Two to zero, Newcastle quickly expanded its lead!

    The Newcastle team anthem "Welcome to Newcastle" rang loudly above the stands of St James' Park.  Norwich's players seemed stunned.  Not long after the kickoff, Mark Ley?He quickly stole the ball from the opponent's forward.  Then the ball was given to Robert on the left!

    Robert dribbled the ball forward quickly, and other players also rushed into Norwich's half, intending to score another goal to completely seal the victory.

    Robert kept moving forward under Helweger's defense. He knew that the opponent was also an experienced star, but Helweger was excellent at assisting, and his defensive ability seemed

    When reaching the corner of the penalty area, Robert pretended to cross, luring Helweger to move sideways to the middle, and then immediately dunked the ball toward the baseline, ready to break through!

    But when he broke through, he discovered that the ball had been left by Helweger!

    It turns out that although Helvig passed by just now, his feet remained in place

    After stealing the ball, Helweger saw that Hart was already approaching him, and immediately took off his feet and passed the ball far away to Bent, the only forward of Nenovich who was roaming in the Newcastle half.  profit!

    I have to say that the ball was passed quite well. Bentley got the ball smoothly, but he had to face a three-person double-team!

    Although Bentley was less than 30 meters away from Newcastle's goal, Dawson had already pounced on him fiercely. Makelele behind him also rushed towards him, and behind Dawson, there was Luci  Ao is filling in!

    Some Newcastle fans in the stands jeered - can this little-known forward break through the double-team of these three famous Premier League defenders?  Of course it¡¯s impossible!

    However, Bentley did not break through, but took a long shot from more than 20 meters away!

    The ball flew out, but Bentley felt very regretful, because the shot was well hit, and on his side, a Norwich player rushed into the penalty area and was ready to respond. If the ball could be passed to him,  ¡­

    Facing the ball flying towards him, Given planned to hit it out, because the power of this shot was relatively strong. However, the forward who rushed into the penalty area made him hesitate - what should he do if he hit the ball to the opponent's feet?  ?  So Ji Wen was about to catch the ball again. After hesitating, he made a terrible mistake

    Ji Wen failed to catch the ball!

    The ball flew past his armpit and quickly flew into the goal behind him!

    The St. James Park stadium was silent, and everyone couldn't believe their eyes!

    Even Bentley, who scored the goal, couldn't believe that he could score Newcastle's goal with such a long shot!

    Poor Given was kneeling on the lawn, unable to believe that he would actually make such a mistake that only an amateur goalkeeper would make!

    "Hell!" Mourinho cursed, and then shouted to the court: "It doesn't matter, this is just a goal! Continue to attack and defeat them!"

    Mourinho knows that this conceded goal is insignificant, but if such a conceded goal causes the team to fall into a passive position, then the gain outweighs the loss!

    But even though he shouted, the situation on the field still inevitably developed into a bad situation. Because this goal gave Norwich enough courage, they instead began to suppress Newcastle within their own half and attack!

    Given performed well in the following period and saved several dangerous goals in a row, but this still could not reverse Newcastle's disadvantage on the field.

    Finally, through a corner kick, Norwich caused a melee in the Newcastle penalty area. Defender Doherty extended his foot in the chaos and poked the ball into the gate guarded by Given. For this goal, Given  I can only sigh and feel helpless!

    Mourinho's face was livid. His most worried situation finally appeared. Now Newcastle's advantage no longer exists!

    Mourinho began to make substitutions. He replaced Drogba with Dier, who had been running aimlessly in the midfield for more than 70 minutes. Then he replaced Trabelsi with Maicon, and finally with Ribery.  Replaced Robert, who had lost a lot of physical strength, and changed into three forwards to strengthen the attack!

    He can¡¯t stand it any longer, and neither can Newcastle¡¯s players!

    Now Newcastle only has two center backs and midfielder Mak¨¦l¨¦l¨¦ in charge of defense. The other players are all involved in the attack. The two full-backs have almost moved to the full-back position. Franck Ribery  Then he moved to the left winger position to deliver shells to the three forwards in the penalty area, and Nie Fei was responsible for organization in the midfield.

    This kind of desperate attack should only appear in the final moments of key games, but now Newcastle is starting to go all out in an ordinary league game. This also proves how much Newcastle hopes to win this game.

    This kind of confrontationNewcastle's desire finally got the result they wanted. After ten minutes of fierce attack, Ribery and Nie Fei made a cross move and finally opened a hole in Norwich's defense. Ribery  He took a long shot from outside the penalty area, but the ball was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper. Shearer used his body to carry the constantly harassing opponent's defender, and kicked the ball into the goal first!

    ?Three to two, Newcastle finally won a difficult victory, although this victory did not come at a satisfactory time.
