Chapter 65: Galtiye's goal at the beginning of the season
A lot of things. With the first, there will be a second.
Valenchet's attack was cut off again on the right flank. The ball came to Sylvain-Monsoréo again.
In this game, Sylvain Monsoréo gradually adapted to his role as a ball-playing defender.
In a wide shift, Albin Ebondo chested the ball off near the right-hand touchline.
Ding Yue repeated his old tricks, running all the way back from the sideline, and then a broken line, flashing a gap near the middle line, "Hey!"
Ding Yue's voice was like Albin Aibondo's locator, he looked up, pushed the arch of his foot, and the ball reached Ding Yue's feet. Angua Buro was a bit of a goat, and this time stared at Albin Ebondo to prevent him from stumbling forward like the previous goal, and getting another cross for lunch in his defensive area.
Ding Yue, who was not followed closely by Angua Buro, suddenly felt relaxed, and Valencheet's midfielder Remy Gomis hurriedly came over from the flank. Seeing this, Christoph Landlin also followed.
Ding Yue took a step, poked the ball on his toes, and poked the ball to the oncoming Christoph Landlin, Christoph Landlin stopped the ball, and then leaned on Remy Gomis, who followed behind.
Christophe Landlin already has a lot of trust in the Asian kid, although he is not the fastest in the team, nor the strongest and tallest, and in terms of talent, Payet is also a cut above him. But he's definitely smart enough, smart enough to find the gaps in the other side, to set up and guide the development of the attack, and smart enough to make the most of his already good technical skills at high intensity.
Ding Yue started quickly, and the wind swept by Christoph Landlin's side, taking the ball away from his feet!
Pick-and-roll!
Remy Gomis' face turned green. This basketball-like coordination action completely blocked himself! He realized that he started chasing Ding Yue again, but he had already fallen two positions!
Ding Yue cut into the small gap left by Remi Gomis leaving his defense zone.
Payet, on the left, saw this and cut in sharply.
Constant movement can shatter the opponent's flanking plan.
Ding Yue steadily dribbled forward. Payette and E-Revelli formed a triangular attacking formation with him up front, with Matuidi on the left.
Another three-dimensional offensive plan. Galtier stood up.
E. Revelli has always been determined to push forward, and in fact, he has a strong impact on the goal after the start, but Galtier seems to be more interested in his running and tandem ability. Because the ability of the two wingers is already very strong, what is needed is a center forward who can tear apart the defense. All E-Revelli quickly ascended the position after Ding Yue's flash.
Ding Yue made a direct pass and gave the ball to Payette, who cut in from the left side. At this time, because Valentna's left midfielder Remy Gomis stepped forward to save Ding Yue and did not come back so quickly, the right rib direction of Saint-Etienne's attack was in a vacuum.
After Payette won the ball, the opposition right centre-back R-Martel also stepped in.
Payette continued to move towards the middle with the ball parallel to the penalty line. R-Martel leaned sideways, staring at the ball at Payet's feet, moving step by step as Payette moved, fearing the strength of Payette's right foot cut in, his left foot was always ready to rise to block Payette's shot!
Seeing this, Carlos Sanchez, another midfielder who originally watched Ding Yue rush forward and fill in the position, quickly ran a few steps behind him and stepped forward to block Payette's forward route.
It's another two-person snatch situation.
Payette shook his ankle and flicked the outside of his foot, and the ball passed under Carlos Sanchez's crotch!
Ding Yue, who rushed up, just caught the ball!
The last central defender, No. 4 Balde, had to give up his defensive zone and move towards Ding Yue.
Just in time!
After everyone passively moved out of their own defense zone, Ding Yue saw in the corner of his left eye that E-Revelli couldn't hold back and was about to step forward again!
Syllable!
Ding Yue pushed with his right foot. The ball rolled in the middle of the gap between Carlos Sanchez and Balde towards E. Revelli!
E-Revelli paused on his right foot, then looked up at Valenciennes' goalkeeper Pennete'o.
One-on-one duel!
Pennete'o did not hesitate, and in such a situation, the goalkeeper's only option was to strike quickly, increasing the area of his interception and reducing the angle of the opposing shooter's shot.
E-Revelli naturally knew Pennete's thoughts, but he was also waiting for Pennete's action!
At the moment when Penneteo attacked, E-Revelli leaned back, his left foot firmly supported the center of gravity of the whole body, and his right foot quickly swung his leg to shoot!
Balde's flying shovel was half a leg short and didn't block - Revelli's shot on goal!
Sou!
The ball flew from the right side of Pennete's body against the turf towards the bottom left corner of the goal.
Pennete'o instinctively fell to the ground, but his stature couldn't match the speed of his close-range blast.
The ball flew into the net against the goalpost!
2;0.
The scoreline was a complete dash to Valenchete's hopes of trying to replicate Lorient's tactics in the previous game.
E-Revelli ran to Ding Yue excitedly!
As he ran, he pointed at Payette with his right hand and beckoned again!
Payette also ran over, and the three of them hugged each other! The next teammates followed, and the three of them were surrounded in a circle.
"Well done!ding!"
Amid the shouts of a crowd of people, E-Revelli shouted in Ding Yue's ear.
Ding Yue gave E-Revelli a punch, and then slapped Payette's face, "Your pass is amazing!" Payet also hugged Ding Yue hard, which felt so good. Saint-Etienne was no longer a one-shoulder situation, and the wings took off to make him a lot less stressed, a lot.
The happiest is undoubtedly Galtier. Now, he can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai platform.
The increasingly tacit cooperation of the frontcourt trio made him have more desires in his heart.
Payette and Ding Yue injected new vitality into Saint-Etienne with their excellent passing ability and tireless running, and the large coverage of the court! The super individual ability of the two of them can inject a steady stream of impetus into Saint-Etienne's attack, and can build a barrier for Saint-Etienne's defense.
With this win, Saint-Etienne is only one point away from Lille at the top of the table!
For the first time, Galtier felt that the goal he had set at the beginning of the season...
