Saarez FC is located in the city of Jerez, in the autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
From Madrid, it takes four and a half hours by high-speed train, so the Chinatown team flies directly to Jerez Airport and from there to the Sapin Stadium.
That's right, it's the stadium, with a spacious track and a semi-circular arc, which makes the distance between the stands and the field very long.
In Spain, there are not many teams that use stadiums as their home stadiums, so Gao Han feels familiar.
"When did we ever come here?"
Sitting in the stands of Saping Stadium, Gao Han felt very familiar, as if he had been here before, but when it was, he forgot again, and could only say that he had been to too many away games.
On the contrary, it was Cantarero, who had a better memory, and nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the first season when we brought Atletico Madrid back to La Liga, the Copa del Rey round of 16 knockout round, we played here away, and the result of that game seemed to be ...... Two to zero. ”
Gao Han wowed, staring at Cantarero with some surprise, as if he had reacquainted himself with his former assistant.
It was a few years ago, and I still remember the score, which is good.
Just three days ago, as soon as the transfer of the European winter break began, the Chinese city team and Atletico Madrid announced the loan of Marcos Senna at the same time, the relationship between the two teams is close, and the loan of players is frequent and normal, but it is the first time to loan a popular player like Marcos Senna.
So, the whole of Spain was shocked, especially the teams in La Liga.
No one would have thought that Marcos Senna, who represented Spain in the European Championship half a year ago, would choose to be loaned to the China City team, which is bound to increase the strength of the China City team.
He joined three days ago, and three days later, Marcos Senna was in the squad for the away game against Sares.
Gao Han, accompanied by Cantarero and Armando Marcos, appeared in the stands of Sales to supervise the game.
In the end, it was the West League League, there were not many fans on the scene, and they sat in the stands sparsely, coupled with the cold climate, Gao Han wore a hat and sunglasses, but he was not recognized, which saved a lot of trouble.
Players from both teams in the stadium were soon on the pitch.
Gao Han has always believed that there is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people, and he is confident in Pochettino and does not interfere, so he is not familiar with Sares's players, and he can't tell who is who, but he is the starter of the China City team, and he is like a treasure.
De Gea was in goal, Alba, De Vrij, Alderweireld and Carvajal at the back from left to right, Marcos Senna in midfield, Schneiderlin and Ramirez up front, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Falcao and Diego Costa in front.
Gao Han swept the players of the two teams in the stadium with his sharp eyes, from the overall strength of the players, the China City team has an advantage, but the players are generally young, and the previous midfield was weak and lost, resulting in the advantages of the front and back fields have not been brought into play.
Now, with the arrival of Marcos Senna, the midfield has been greatly improved, and there should be a better performance.
It's not just Gao Han who thinks so, Cantarero and Pochettino think so too.
But the start of the game was unexpected, and Sares, who was fighting at home, took the lead in launching a scramble.
The leaders of La Liga looked confident and kept attacking Chinatown, which left them a little stumbling and a mistake in the thirteenth minute that was seized by their opponents and scored a goal by the striker.
This goal made the fans in the stands shout with great excitement, there were not many people, but the sound was loud.
After the goal lead, the China City team became more and more nervous, and the Sales team took the initiative to attack and frequently create threats.
Pochettino kept reminding his players on the sidelines, calling them to try to slow down the tempo, but the players on the pitch looked a little hot-headed and couldn't listen.
'I've lost a couple of times, it's been like that. Cantarero shook his head and sighed.
To serve as the technical director, he watched the video and analysis of the game of this season's China City team in advance, and one of the most important points is that the mentality of the players is not mature enough.
Sometimes this is very fatal, because after being impatient, the original strength may not be able to play half.
"I'm still young. Gao Han has long been mentally prepared for this.
Young teams are like this, if they play well, they will be devastated, and if they encounter problems, they will probably fall apart.
When the morale of the China City team was floating, I saw that on the field, Marcos Senna took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to shout loudly to his teammates around him, shouting something in his mouth, directing them, just like the posture of a head coach on the field, and the teammates around him also consciously obeyed his arrangement.
After the game restarted, Marcos Senna was the first to run over to catch the ball, and after holding the ball, he did not pass it out immediately, but held the ball himself to stabilize the rhythm of the game.
Sares's player wanted to press forward, but Marcos Senna immediately passed to his teammate and ran to the gap to catch the ball, and the defender continued to press, he passed again, ran again, and received again......
The ball was always passed at the feet of the Chinatown team, and after a few times of pressing by Sares's players, they finally gave up.
After the tempo was controlled, Marcos Senna began to organize the attack, and the overall formation of the Chinese city team began to gradually press, which made Gao Han and Cantarero in the stands nod their heads.
"A veteran is a veteran in the end, and he can be relied on at critical moments. Cantaré Rozan said.
Gao Han also agrees.
After each goal, it is often easy to be accompanied by another goal, and the reason is not difficult to guess, the losing side will fight back wildly, and the scorer is easy to relax, but it is also possible that the opposite is true, the scorer does not relax, but waits for it, using the counterattack of the loser, seizing the opportunity to sneak attack the next city.
Therefore, at this time, what the Chinese city team needs most is to stabilize its position.
"As long as we hold our ground, with the strength of the China City team, it is enough to turn defeat into victory. Gao Han is full of confidence in this.
On the field, Marcos Senna organized and planned an attack, but after the ball was passed to the front, he didn't pass two or three feet, and Sares seized the opportunity to break the ball, but as soon as the ball was broken, the Chinese City team's counter-robbery came.
Schneiderlin and Ramirez both moved into the 30-metre zone, with Marcos Senna on the perimeter and Alderweireld and De Vrij in the halfway line, creating a tight defensive layer.
Sales was swept by Schneiderlin and Ramirez, there was a mistake in the pass, Schneiderlin broke the ball, passed to the front court to Falcao, but the Colombian striker retreated to take the ball, felt that he had no chance, and made a straight pass, which went directly back to the backline.
"Well done, take your time, don't rush, there's still time. Pochettino applauded loudly from the sidelines.
'Remember, take control of the ball, be patient and play to our strengths. ”
The players on the pitch heard Pochettino's cry and, under the command of Marcos Senna, gradually stabilized their position, controlled their tempo, played more patiently, and were no longer as impatient as before.
In the face of such a China City team, Sales really didn't have a good way for a while, but the China City team, after patiently looking for twenty minutes, finally found an opportunity.
Diego Costa took the ball back to Ramirez in front, the Brazilian midfielder was assigned to the wing, Carvajal quickly cut in the back row, received the ball and took it in stride directly to the bottom line, and passed the ball into the box.
In the box, Falcao cut in quickly, grabbed the most advantageous position with his body, flicked his head into the far corner, and the ball went past the hands of the Sales goalkeeper and into the goal.
"Yay!!!!!"
In the stands, as soon as Gao Han saw Falcao score, he jumped up from his seat and shouted excitedly.
Cantarero and Armando Marcos were also thrilled.
In the stadium, Pochettino in the coach's box of the visiting team clenched his right fist, swung it into the air, and shouted loudly.
The goal was played very smartly, with the back row inserted to grab the most powerful position, and the head was rubbed into the far corner, and the power and angle were quite in place.
"This kid has a very good nose for goals and is going to be a scary scorer. Cantarero is full of praise.
Gao Han smiled, of course he knew Falcao's strength, otherwise, he would not have introduced him from River Plate to the China City team.
It's not just him, but Diego Costa, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and everyone in the team.
This is his team, and everyone in this team has been carefully selected by him, can it not be outstanding?
"I'm telling you, we won this game. Gao Han stretched out his hand and pointed to the court below, shouting confidently.
"With this momentum, Salis can't stop us!"
Cantarero felt the same way, and after the equaliser, the situation on the pitch had turned abruptly.
Now that the Chinese city team has the upper hand, and the mentality is also suppressing Sares, but it is the home team, which should be a little anxious.
Sure enough, after the game restarted, Sares was a little impatient and began to want to attack, but it was difficult to get through the midfield.
In Pochettino's tactics, Schneiderlin and Ramirez are two Tigers who can run and cover quite well, with them in the midfield, coupled with the active defense of the front trident, and Marcos Senna behind him, it is difficult for Sares's attack to threaten, especially after being in a hurry.
In the first half, the two sides were tied 1-1, but after the second half of the rematch, at the beginning of the game, the Chinese city team suddenly played a wave of attacks.
Left wing-back Jordi Alba made a burst down the left flank, received a pass from Aubameyang, and went down to the bottom line to cross the low ball, the Sales goalkeeper made a decisive attack and flew to save, but the ball spun strongly and his save was lost.
At the crucial moment, Falcao got ahead of everyone else, quickly followed and sent the ball into the bottom of the net with his left foot.
The goal helped China City to reverse Sares.
It was also this goal that made Sares even more anxious.
In a hurry, there will be many mistakes, and as soon as there are many mistakes, the quick counterattack of the Chinese city team will have an effect.
Marcos Senna's counter-attack from the middle of the pitch was passed to Diego Costa, who took the ball with his back and picked up the ball directly behind him, Falcao cut in to receive the ball, and after entering the penalty area, he used the skillful technique of his feet to deduct the last defender and calmly pick and shoot.
The ball went past the goalkeeper and into the net again, three to one!
Falcao scored a hat-trick!
The excited Colombian striker quickly burst out of the pitch, receiving congratulations from his teammates all the way.
On the sidelines, Pochettino was also very excited, hugging his assistants hard and shouting loudly.
This is definitely the most relieving game played by the China City team so far this season.
What could be more exciting than a 3-1 away reversal of the league leaders?
'It was a beautiful game, but it's not just the three points that matter. "Cantarero is starting to take on a new role as a technical director.
Gao Han looked at him with some surprise, and he thought it was funny, didn't he want Cantarero to enter the role sooner?
But Cantarero is right, the most important thing is not the three points, but the win back a breath of air, a hope.
