After McGeedy and Baines cooperated on the left for a while, they made a cross from the bottom, and Lukaku, who responded from the center, scored a header. Although it was higher than the crossbar, it made Swansea City's defense break out in a cold sweat.

After Xia Ze passed the transfer ball, he found that the team's offense had improved immediately, so he knew what to do next. The reason why the team was suppressed by Swansea City in the midfield before was because they competed with the opponent for short pass penetration.

Although his team's short pass coordination is also good, but compared with Swansea City, it pales in comparison, and naturally it is thankless.

But now if you play more long passes, you can drag the opponent's defense line and create more opportunities for the two wingers to break through one-on-one.

After understanding this truth, Xia Ze, Barry and Gibson frequently used long passes to move the ball in the next game to tear up Swansea City's defense and gradually regain control of the midfield.

Martinez saw the team get rid of the rhythm of Swansea City, and nodded slightly on the sidelines, with a smile in his eyes.

The frequent breakthroughs of the two wingers, Miralas and McGeedy, made the defenders of Swansea City very uncomfortable, while Xia Ze and Gibson's long-range shots at the right time made the other side panic.

By the 30th minute of the first half, Everton had created several opportunities in front of the goal and was getting closer and closer to the goal. Seeing this situation, Laudrup frowned, and immediately went to the sidelines to mention his players.

Xia Ze got the ball in the midfield again, this time he did not directly pass a long pass to the wingers on both sides, because after Laudrup's point, the defenders on both sides of Swansea City pulled more wide to the two sides to prevent Exposing the gap to pass the ball to Xia Ze.

But in this way, they have more space in the middle. Although there is a midfielder and two central defenders in front of Xia Ze, the distance between the three of them is no less than 10 meters, which can be said to be enough for Xia Ze. breakthrough space.

Since you can't pass the ball, break through!

Xia Ze stepped forward without hesitation, and directly wiped the back of Swansea City who was leaning towards him. Lukaku has already pinned down Shawcross, there is only one central defender in front of him, and Shelvey has been chasing after him.

I didn't intend to give you a chance to catch up with me. Looking around, Xia Ze had already noticed Shelvey who was making moves behind him, but he didn't care.

Facing Xia Ze's breakthrough, Swansea City's central defender fought and retreated, not daring to take a step easily.

And their back direction immediately shrank, and the two full-backs quickly shrank towards the penalty area, leaving no room for Xia Ze to break through.

But when they thought that Xia Ze would continue to break through, he flicked his right foot and gave the ball to the right, which happened to land at the feet of Miralas.

Miralas's breakthrough was not inferior to Xia Ze's. In addition, the opponent's defender had shrunk into the penalty area, so he also took advantage of the opportunity to press into the penalty area, aiming at the goal and shooting hard!

Whoosh!

The ball went straight to the corner! Everton lead 1-0.

The whole stadium was boiling, and Miralas ran towards the corner to celebrate. Laudrup covered his face and sighed helplessly, still unable to escape the fate of conceding the ball.

After Everton scored the first goal, the team's confidence increased greatly. Under the leadership of Xia Ze, they completely controlled the game. Another goal in the second half gave Swansea City a 2-0 win.

In this game, Xia Ze did all the long pass transfers, short pass coordination and breakthroughs very reasonably, completely controlling the game.

His performance also made fans and the media think that he has fully adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League and has become Everton's new commander.

...

One month later, on Sunday, March 23, 2015. After Xia Ze led the team to a big home victory over West Ham United yesterday, he and Wang Xiaolin went to a restaurant outside for dinner.

Although Wang Xiaolin has made great progress in cooking after more than a month of cooking learning, but if she wants to reward herself, it is better to eat outside.

Both of them were born and bred in Guangzhou, but they were not very interested in Western food. Instead, they went to a Chinese restaurant in the local Chinatown for dinner.

"Look, Ze, someone is taking pictures again." The figures of Wang Xiaolin and Xia Ze appeared in front of the Chinese restaurant. At the corner of the street, several paparazzi popped up and snapped pictures of them with their cameras.

"Don't worry about them." Xia Ze glanced at the corner of the street from the corner of the eye, and then walked into the Chinese restaurant calmly holding Wang Xiaolin's hand.

"Enough is enough, we can go back to work today." At the corner, a photographer took a few photos and left contentedly.

"Hey, Ozawa is here, I haven't seen you for a week." After the two entered the restaurant, a middle-aged Chinese man with a greasy face and a big belly greeted him with a smile on his face.

Xia Ze and Wang Xiaolin greeted him with a smile, and sat down by the window. This middle-aged man is the owner of the restaurant. After Xia Ze and the two found this restaurant with a relatively good taste a few weeks ago, they came here every now and then, so they also got to know the owner here.

After the two sat down to order, some customers at the side of the table cast their eyes on the two of them.

Most of the people who eat in this restaurant are local Chinese, and there are also some foreigners who want to try Chinese food.

Without exception, they secretly followed Xia Ze and Wang Xiaolin. Although their eyes were not hostile, they made them feel a little uncomfortable.

"Xiaolin, do you feel that many people are watching us?" Xia Ze moved his lips lightly, and asked Wang Xiaolin who was opposite in a voice that only two people could hear.

"It's not because you have become a celebrity in Liverpool." Wang Xiaolin answered in a low voice, holding up the menu board.

The two were talking in an extremely secretive way as if they were two people with a secret deal.

In the past half month, whether they were shopping or eating, they always cast a lot of eyes around them, making them uncomfortable. It's also because the two haven't adjusted to the life of being a celebrity yet.

"Please... Excuse me, are you... Are you Xia Ze?" A childish voice came into the ears of the two of them.

Xia Ze's face popped out from the menu, and he found that in front of him was a seven or eight-year-old Chinese child, talking to himself timidly in blunt Chinese.

"That's right, kid, I'm Xia Ze." Seeing this chubby kid, Xia Ze couldn't help being a little amused.

"Excuse me...can you sign it for me?" The child mustered up his courage and handed over the football and pen in his hand.

Xia Ze didn't speak, just took the pen, smiled and signed his name on the ball.

After the child succeeded, other people in the restaurant were eager to move, and they all came forward to ask Xia Ze for autographs and group photos... c
