Chapter 089: Preemptive Strike (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
La Romarda in the home team dressing room. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoZaragoza's assistant coach Kubala closes the door to the dressing room. It also shut out the hustle and bustle of the stadium.
Zaragoza's head coach Fernandez had a gloomy face. He trained all the players, from the goalkeeper to the midfielder to the striker.
"It's the worst game I've ever seen, don't you feel ashamed to be half-time led by a La Liga side relegation and almost sent off. Fernandez scolded with a grimace.
"Jimenez, you idiot. I'm really curious, who taught you to defend, as a defender, and pounce so hard all at once, don't you know to give yourself a little leeway to defend?" Fernandez scolded with a finger pointing at Jimenez's nose.
Simonis, who was scolded by Fernández pointing at his nose, did not say a word and drooped his head. The child was completely frightened and did not dare to speak at all.
Fernandez then scolded Toledo again, believing that he shouldn't be so rough when defending Mata, and only need to follow Mata's footsteps in the penalty area and not give him a chance to shoot.
Toledo felt that he was quite aggrieved, Mata boy, fast, and nimble with his feet, how could he be so easy to prevent as you said. In fact, Toledo was completely aiming for the ball at the feet of Mata, and it was this kid who had a fast pace at his feet, and he didn't tackle the ball, but he just took the ball down.
After scolding the team's defence, Fernandes pointed the finger at the team's attacking line, criticising Carney for being restrained by a little brat. He also criticized Carney for not passing the ball when he should have passed, so that he missed the opportunity to attack, and the most serious thing was that he actually lost the ball at his feet and was counterattacked by the opponent. Fernandez's agitation can also be seen here, as Carney once dribbled at the beginning of the game and was cut off by Marx and Carlos, and Fernandez was not angry at all.
For Villa and Moreno on the front line, Fernandez also criticized a few words, Villa was okay, Fernandez just let Villa run more actively in the second half, he mainly criticized Moreno. Clearly, Fernandes was still holding on to Moreno's chance to squander a solo goal in the first half.
It's no wonder that Fernandes is in such a bad mood, on the one hand, because he feels unacceptable and shameless for his team to be led by a relegated team in La Liga, especially when the opponent is a young Chinese coach he looks down on. Another reason is that Zaragoza is now in La Liga, there is no hope of European competition, relegation is worry-free, the Copa del Rey is their biggest goal now, only to reach the final of the Copa del Rey, they can qualify for next season's European competition, which is their only pursuit this season.
At the end of the break, Fernandes gritted his teeth and warned all his players that they had to play hard in the second half, and they had to go on the attack at the beginning of the game! Obviously, until this moment, Fernandez still thinks that his team is much stronger than the opponent, and the first half of the game is just a carelessness on his side, because of the paralysis caused by the contempt of the opponent, as long as the team is strong in the second half, Sporting Gijón will not have any chances in the second half.
***********
In the away dressing room at the Stadio La Romarda, Leon praised his team's performance. Compared to the storm in the home dressing room, the atmosphere here is much better, the players are in a good mood, and it is definitely something to be proud of to be able to lead 1-0 at half-time at Zaragoza's home stadium, you know, even Real Madrid and Barcelona have not taken advantage of here.
The team played well in the first half, and Leon did not make substitutions, he just emphasized that in the second half of the game, it is necessary to continue to strengthen the defense of Carney, and in the case of Savio's injury, Carney's right side plays an even more important role in Zaragoza's attack.
In addition, Leon pointed out that Zaragoza centre-back Toledo had a yellow card on him, and Leon made a special arrangement to attack it after the start of the second half, with Juan Mata and Matt Bilic taking turns to attack this. If possible, let Toledo receive another yellow card and be sent off, so that the game is very promising.
Leon's arrangement is also justified, Toledo is a fierce player, and for a centre-back, this comment means that he is easily impulsive and can be a little frizzy.
"Zaragoza were behind and they definitely wanted to attack in the second half, and we attacked at the beginning of the second half, trying to keep their momentum down, so that even if they got the ball and attacked, the momentum and quality of the attack would be compromised!"
Leon arranged for his players to try to play high in the second half of the game, and although Matt Bilic's header attributes are not as good as those of McGur Picla, they are also at an upper-middle level. Leon wanted to try his luck in case Bilic was lucky enough to score with a header.
So, after the second half of the game, people were surprised to find that Sporting Gijón began to play golf.
***********
The Sporting Gijón man struggled to get the ball over Matt Bilic's head from the wing. It's a pity that Zaragoza's defender Toledo has a good header ability, and Gabriel Milito, although not very tall, has a good bounce and is quite good at judging the landing point, which makes Matt Bilic stuck in the middle of Zaragoza's defenders and does nothing.
Leon watched from the sidelines for a while and found that blind crosses from the side were easy to be prevented by the Zaragozas, and Milito and Toledo's ability to defend against the high altitude was indeed good, and it seemed that the header was not a good solution.
So taking advantage of a dead ball, Leon called Juan Mata to his side. Telling him not to cross anymore and instead to break through with the ball and cut inside, Zaragoza's full-back Cuartro still assists very far forward, and Jimenez, the defender on this side, seems to have not come out of the mistake of conceding the goal in the first half, and is a little stunned, this is where it can be used.
Quartro is a strong full-back who has a good ability to provide assists down the flanks, but defensively he struggles with Juan Mata's speed break.
Juan Mata accelerates ...... Stop, cut, beautiful, he shook off Quartrow!shot!!" Gonzalez shouted.
Zaragoza's goalkeeper Lenes smashes the ball with both fists and then roared at Qualtro, unhappy with his team-mates' defence.
Soon Juan Mata was back in the picture, but this time when Quartro prevented him from cutting inside to break the ground. He chose to force the bottom, and then faced the catching Qualtro to kick the ball back, dodged the cross, and then got up with his right foot to pass the football into the penalty area.
Unfortunately, Matt Bilic's shot was deflected wide by Gabriel Milito's interference, but it also sent the Zaragozans out in a cold sweat. It would be really bad if Sporting Gijón scored another goal at home to Zaragoza.
Fernandes was irritable, he yelled on the sidelines, directing the team. At halftime, he asked the whole team to attack at the beginning of the second half of the game and crush the opponent with a tidal attack, but what he didn't expect was that after the start of the second half, it was Sporting Gijón who took advantage of the opportunity to kick off and took the lead in launching the offensive, and once the offensive was up, it was endless, although it could not be said that Zaragoza was out of breath, but now Zaragoza has no time to attack, which is a fact, which makes Fernandez feel aggrieved.
***********
Leon crossed his hands and looked at the field, he expressed his satisfaction with the team's performance during this period of time, his tactic is called preemptive, using momentum to overwhelm the Zaragoza first.
One blow, then decline, three exhaustion, the truth of Cao Di's polemic, Li Ang understands that the fighting spirit and momentum gathered by the Zaragoza people will definitely be affected if he is so overwhelmed.
It's almost time.
Sixty minutes into the game, Leon saw that Juan Mata's activity was a big headache for the Zaragozas, and he also saw the impact of this type of player on the Zaragoza defence. He decided to make a substitution.
ps: the third update. guaranteed second shift.
It's the end of the month, and I'm anxious to ask for monthly ticket support, thank you. (To be continued.) )
