"Are you nervous, kid, you're still experiencing a derby for the first time, right?" Estrada's smile was inauthentic, as if he was reading a joke.
It has to be said that the derby is completely different from any game, and the stadium is already full with about an hour before the game, and the Levante fans are shouting like a tidal wave to announce that this is Valencia, this is the territory of all the away teams.
Elche arrived at the scene two hours early, but could not warm up on the grass, could only sit in the small and stuffy away team locker room to delay time, listening to the noise outside, several young players have changed their faces, and the old players are relatively better, but not as relaxed as before the ordinary game, even Victor, who has always liked to be funny, has no sound, and the whole locker room seems a little dull.
The away team's dressing room is just below the stands, and with the enthusiasm of the fans above, there is a feeling of sitting on the boat from time to time, as if the dressing room is shaking, which makes the atmosphere in the dressing room even more depressing. Estrada is also an experienced veteran, so he used his speech to ease the atmosphere, otherwise his team would have been crushed before the game had even started.
Originally, Pedro was supposed to do this kind of thing, but he was injured in training before coming, and the captain of this game became Estrada, and the task of relieving the atmosphere had to be done by him.
But Ai Huan snorted indifferently at all, "What's the big deal, it's just a group of fans." No matter how many of them there are, no matter how fierce they shout, they can't play, and it's not just the eleven people who can play? This kind of behavior is called gathering chicken feathers and guts in China, and no matter how many people there are, that's what it is. ”
Whether it was Estrada, the other veteran team members all looked at this young Chinese/Chinese kid in surprise, no one expected that he was not very old but had a huge heart.
"You're really not nervous at all?"
"Nervous what, why nervous? I don't know what nervousness is on the pitch. Ai Huan told the truth, since he was electrified, he no longer felt nervous when he came on the field, "Do I want to know if there are visiting fans in the stands now?"
"Of course there is, just to the west. But why are you asking this?"
"When the goal is scored, I'm going to go to our stands to celebrate. Ai Huan said confidently, "Those people, don't look at their loud voices, they will naturally shut up as soon as we score, let them shout casually now, hehe." ”
Uribe walked in at this time, and when he heard Ai Huan's words, he felt a lot more relaxed, and to be honest, he also felt a little nervous. He had never experienced a derby before, and he had never experienced a scene like this, so it was pure nonsense to say that he was not nervous. He secretly went out to take a look just now, and the scene really shocked him, the Valencia City Stadium had turned into a sea of red and blue at this time, and the cheers of the fans almost broke the roof of the football field, and before standing in the middle of the stadium, he felt like a boat in a whirlpool, fluttering and swaying.
He never knew that the derby would be like this, it was just a warm-up outside, and it would be thrilling to think about what his players would have to go through when they were ready to play, which made Uribe's heart go away at all. But fortunately, when he heard Ai Huan's words, he suddenly had a feeling of hope, maybe all this was just an illusion, as long as he broke the opponent's goal, he could solve all the problems, and his confidence came back a lot at this moment.
"Today's opponent is Levante, I don't need to say more about the situation of this team, you should all understand what this game means, this is not an ordinary opponent, so you have to put more energy than usual to deal with them, so that everyone remembers one truth, Elche will definitely not be intimidated by anyone, we have to shut everyone up with goals. He paused and glanced into everyone's eyes, "I'll talk about today's lineup, because Pedro is injured, we have to change the way of playing, Victor don't play, Enrique, Toledo, you two go on the field to take their place, we must stabilize in the first half, and find opportunities to attack in the second half." He spoke quickly, as if he was in a hurry, and everyone did not speak but listened quietly.
This kind of lineup is discharged for only one purpose, that is, to defend and counterattack, leaving only Ai Huan in front of him to counterattack, leaving only Estrada in the midfield to organize the attack, and the rest are placed in the backfield to increase defense, although he seems to be loud, but when he really wants to start, he will still think about how to prevent the opponent as much as possible, after all, this is Levante's home field, and it is difficult to say how much pressure there is.
Angel pushed the door in at this point, "It's time, it's time to start playing." ”
In the player tunnel, the players of both sides have already lined up and stood waiting to play, but there is no communication between the players on both sides, everyone is thinking about their own affairs with expressionless faces, and the occasional eye contact is also a cold light flashing, as if the air is a few degrees lower.
Levante's lineup Ai Huan is not familiar at all, for him, whoever plays is the same, anyway, he doesn't know all of them, and he has watched the game video with him before, but no one seems to need his special attention.
Goalkeeper Munua defenders from left to right are Del Horno, López, Cabrral, Torres, Mateu, left winger Juanfran, right midfielder Baldo, forward Iborra, forward line Koné, Jolda
Levante coach Pelec was standing at the back of the team at this time, his eyes fixed on Ai Huan who was standing in front of him, and the number 49 was less than a meter away from him.
"Will I be able to stop this guy with this arrangement? His speed and ability to score goals are terrifying, if you just arrange some ordinary tactics, it shouldn't have a big effect, this is already my best arrangement, I hope it works." He gritted his teeth nervously, but he still felt his teeth itch for a while.
He just arranged three defenders, which seemed to be a risky move, but in fact it was a targeted arrangement. All three of them are very fast, and only such a player can guarantee that he will not be attacked by the No. 49, and his quick assault is too much of a headache. However, all three of them are not tall enough, and the tallest Cabral is only 1.82 meters, can such a height really stop No. 49? Pelets frowned and thought carefully.
