"Marchena was behind him, my god, he was so fierce that he carried Tristan. β
"But the ball was still at Tristan's feet and wanted to pass it to Victor on the right. β
"Victor quickly plugged in the ......"
"Beautiful, Carvalho made a key sliding tackle and got the ball out. β
Jankulovski received the ball and went straight forward with a big foot to clear the ball. β
"Deportivo La Coruna's attack failed, but this time it was a wake-up call for Atletico Madrid. β
"Marchena and Carvalho, the central defenders, have performed quite well, one fierce and one steady, and the cooperation is becoming more and more tacit and skillful, but Seydoux Keita, who was introduced during the winter break, this game is a big problem. β
'We can see that he is still very out of tune with the team. β
"Okay, the ball is at the feet of Deportivo again......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Although an attack did not work, it ignited the passion of the 30,000 fans in the stands of the Stadio Riazol.
The atmosphere inside the stadium was noticeably more intense, and Deportivo La Coruna seemed to be stimulated and the pace gradually increased.
But Gao Han stood on the sidelines, shaking his head and laughing.
"Carlos, believe it or not, as long as our defense doesn't make mistakes, Deportivo can't even score a goal. β
Instead of being surprised, Cantarero nodded, agreeing with Gao Han's judgment.
Before the game, Gao Han had managed to convince the coaching staff of the reason why he had scheduled Seydou Keita to start.
As for the fact that the Mali midfielder has just arrived, he is not in tune with the team and has become the weakness of the opponent's attack, which has long been expected by Gao Han and the coaching staff, and even made special arrangements in this regard.
"Real Mallorca's 4-1 win over Deportivo La Coruna gave me two reminders. β
Cantarero smiled slightly, "Which two?"
"One is that Deportivo La Coruna seems to be strong, but lacks a key star who has the final word, Tristan is excellent, but that's it, and looking at the entire midfield of Deportivo LaCoruna, there is more than delicate, but not enough sharpness, the attack is overly concentrated in the middle, and the wing can only rely on the back row of the full-backs to insert the attack. β
Cantarero nodded again.
Gao Han's analysis can be described as hitting the nail on the head and hitting the nail on the head of A CoruΓ±a.
The so-called key star is the kind of player who has excellent individual ability and can single-handedly change the situation of the game.
For example, Kaka.
Atletico Madrid has been at a stalemate on several occasions this season, relying on Kaka's strong personal breakthroughs to break the deadlock on the field.
On the other hand, Deportivo La Coruna, although there is Tristan, who is in hot form this season, and Belleron who is as creative as a god in the midfield, but once it is strictly defended by the opponent, Deportivo has no way at all.
Don't look at Deportivo playing 4231, but Forlan on the left is a wing midfielder, and Victor on the right is also not a wing attacker, which directly leads to Deportivo Leaning too much on the middle and two ribs.
The two full-backs are very attacking, but the full-backs are always a double-edged sword, and when it comes to a game, the full-backs are always less dangerous than the full-backs or even the wingers.
If nothing else, let's just say that the full-backs frequently run up and down, and no one can bear this physical exertion.
Therefore, to defend Deportivo La Coruna, you have to stick to the middle and the two ribs.
And once the attack in the front court is contained, the opponent seizes the opportunity and counterattacks, and Deportivo cannot defend at all.
The heavy defeat against Real Mallorca was a case in point.
The reason why Gao Han is full of confidence is because Atletico Madrid's back three is Deportivo Deportivo's nemesis.
The reason why he dared to use Seydoux Keita in this game was because he had this confidence.
What are you afraid of when you make a passing error?
As long as Seydoux Keita can do his job dedicatedly, then Alpine will be satisfied.
What's more, he also gave Seydoux Keita an extra task during the race.
Cantarero couldn't guess what Gao Han was thinking in his heart, but he was curious, and only one of the two reminders was ......
"And what's your other takeaway?" Cantarero asked.
Gao Han laughed, "The second reminder for me is that don't look at the La Liga team is now 4231 into the mainstream, and the double back is very happy, but in fact, few teams can defend well." β
This is also the reason why Deportivo La Liga is playing well in La Liga, but it is not as good as Valencia in the Champions League.
After all, the defense of La Liga is not at the same level as the defense of the Champions League.
In the final analysis, La Liga is still heavy on offense and light on defense.
"Wait, Carlos, the opportunity will come soon. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Seydoux Keita was already sweating profusely, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
But there was not the slightest tiredness in his eyes.
He is like a hungry and vigorous cheetah on the African savannah, looking for prey to satisfy his hunger.
He was twenty-two years old.
The Keita family is a well-known family in West Africa, with many talents from all walks of life in politics and business, and the father of Mali, Modibo Keita, came from this surname.
The talented Keita family is also full of outstanding footballers.
Seydoux Keita's uncle, Sarif Keita, made a name for himself at Saint-Etienne in Ligue 1 and went on to move on to the likes of Marseille, Valencia and Sporting Lisbon, where he won the title of African Footballer of the Year, the only player in Mali to have won the title of African Footballer of the Year.
After retiring as a player, Sarif Keita founded the prestigious Football Academy Centre in Mali, where Keita and Mohamed Diarra were among the first trainees, and it was here that they were spotted by Ligue 1 sides and landed in France.
Influenced by his uncle from an early age, Seydoux Keita was determined to pursue a career in professional football, believing that playing football could change the impoverishment of himself and his family.
Even in the 1999 World Youth Championships, although he failed to help the Mali national youth team win the championship, he won the title of the best player of the tournament with his outstanding individual performance, beating Ronaldinho, Xavi and many other stars.
It was the first time in his life that he tasted success.
However, his outstanding performance at the World Junior Championships did not change his embarrassing situation in Marseille.
Later, he followed the advice of his uncle and his agent, left Marseille and switched to Lorient in Ligue 2, hoping to get more training and improve his level.
That season, he was one of the main contributors to Lorient's promotion to Ligue 1.
But after the team entered Ligue 1, Lorient introduced several midfielders, and Keita's situation became embarrassing again, especially in a heavy defeat in the new season, Keita's several mistakes were amplified after the game, and the manager directly took his main position.
After that, he could only come off the bench occasionally and struggled to get another chance.
In fact, even now, Lorient is not in a good position.
It was just when Seydoux Keita was on the bench and almost desperate that Atletico Madrid suddenly extended an olive branch.
For a million euros, the Sheets Army bought him to La Liga.
is also a promoted horse, Lorient is at the bottom of Ligue 1, but Atletico Madrid has won consecutive games in La Liga, winning all the way.
Seydoux Keita couldn't understand why Atletico Madrid, who had a lot of stars in the team, would choose him.
But he couldn't pass up such an opportunity, because head coach Gao Han personally called him and promised to give him more chances to play, and now, just a week after he officially joined the team, he has been given a chance to start.
The opponent is La Liga powerhouse Deportivo La Coruna.
The match is an away match in the first leg of the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey in Spain.
Whether it is the opponent or the game, it is full of gold, which Seydoux Keita did not dare to imagine before in Marseille and in Lorient.
What made him even more unimaginable was that the coach of the Atletico Madrid team, who was only two years older than him and was too young to speak, said a word to him a few days ago.
'I've seen your performances at Marseille and Lorient, especially in the World Youth Championship and Ligue 2, you played very well, and the managers of Marseille and Lorient don't use you well, that's because they won't use it. β
At first, Seydoux Keita was unconvinced, thinking the young manager was talking nonsense and big words.
But after a few days of training with the team, especially with two of his team-mates, he realised that the young manager was unlike any other manager he had ever met before.
And today, he stood on the pitch of Riazo, and he gave his all and conscientiously executed the manager's pre-match tactical arrangements, while also waiting in his heart for the opportunity to arise.
Finally, here's your chance!
Marcos Senna appeared to be interested in competing with fellow Brazilian Mauro Silva in this game, once again cutting off the ball from midfield to BellerΓ³n and passing it to Kaka.
Kaka received the ball and immediately accelerated and launched a counterattack.
Deportivo quickly switched from attack to defense after conceding the goal, especially the double midfielders, who retreated for the first time.
But the Brazilian midfielder immediately passed the ball to the left and handed it to Villa, who sprinted forward quickly.
Kaka and Torres rushed forward to distract the home team's defenders.
In the quick counterattack, after receiving Kaka's pass, Villa did not choose to dribble the ball himself, but crossed the ball back to the middle, and he also turned and rushed to the left side of the penalty area.
The ball was slow and came to a halt in no man's land.
On the pitch, including many Atletico Madrid players, were puzzled at this moment.
Wrong pass?
But the next moment, they saw a silhouette wearing an Atletico Madrid jersey, quickly rushed up from behind, and the ball just landed on the line of his sprint, regardless of 3721, after catching up with the ball, he picked up his left foot, and it was a straight shot.
I heard a muffled bang, and the ball went straight to the goal like a deboring cannonball.
It wasn't until this moment that the Riazor Stadium erupted into an exclamation.
Even many Deportivo fans jumped out of their seats in surprise. (To be continued.) )
