Chapter 126: We've Got It!

"The second half began. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

'Neither side made any substitutions at half-time and continued to play with the line-up from the first half. ”

"Barcelona served first, and Atletico Madrid was still on the defensive. ”

……

"I'm rubbing, is this guy a tortoise?"

Ferrer watched from the sidelines and almost went berserk.

He really wanted to go over, grabbed Gao Han's clothes, and asked him fiercely, why can you be a little more timid?

Retracted at the start of the second half, do you like words?

The assistant coach next to him also smiled helplessly and wryly, "This guy is really ...... Too timid. ”

In the case that he couldn't vent his anger, he could only scold Gao Han for being cowardly.

Ferrer wasn't a young manic kid after all, and he quickly stabilized his mind.

"Tell them, don't worry, be patient, take your time, I don't believe he can hide in a turtle shell for the rest of his life!"

The assistant coach nodded and walked to the sideline to convey Ferrer's meaning.

But sometimes, it doesn't mean that the manager is on the sidelines and the players can do it meticulously on the pitch.

Especially in this case in Barcelona.

Although Ferrer asked not to rush and remain patient, the effect was not ideal.

From the start, the attacking players up front pressed hard and couldn't wait to keep Atletico Madrid at bay from the start.

Or even a goal.

The front court pressed up, and Guardiola in the midfield could only press up in order to avoid the disconnection between the front and back courts.

The attitude at the back is the same.

As a result, in this way, Barcelona as a whole pressed again.

…………

…………

"It seems that Ferrer's words are no longer working!"

Matayana said with a sigh from the stands.

From the opening moment, Ferrer couldn't sit still, stood in the coaching area, and frequently walked to the sidelines, calling on the players on the field to withdraw.

But it didn't work!

Pep Guardiola is well aware of the team's situation and tries to pull the team back, but the attackers in the front court are like wild horses that have lost their hands, and they can't be dragged back.

'The team didn't think together, there was a divergence of ideas, and that's it. De la Morena shook his head.

The attacking players up front want to press up, hoping to change the situation of the game with the help of individual ability.

But the meaning of the midfielder and the manager is that they can't push Atletico Madrid too hard, they have to withdraw first, let Atletico Madrid breathe a sigh of relief, patiently look for opportunities, and then suddenly press.

This directly led to a disconnect between the team's thinking in the front and back courts, the front court wanted to press up, but the back court desperately wanted to pull it, the back court wanted to withdraw, and the front court was desperately pushing forward, how could it not be chaotic?

It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong.

It's like the two 4-4 draws that Barcelona encountered, and in the end, it was the individual ability of the stars to settle the game.

From these two games, it is not difficult to see that the thinking of the frontcourt star is feasible.

But the problem is that the 1-3 defeat away to Osasuna not long ago didn't work.

So, it's not a question of who's right and who's wrong, it's a team that doesn't think in the same way.

And at the end of the day, Matayana was right, Ferrer's words didn't work.

"Barcelona shouldn't have revealed Ferrer's dismissal sooner. Matayana shook her head and sighed.

A head coach is like a department manager in a company, responsible for managing the entire department.

Just imagine, when the boss of this company suddenly announces that the manager is not up to standard, and the management is very dissatisfied with him and wants to fire him in the near future, what will the employees of this department think of this manager?

Will what he say work before he actually leaves his job? Who else will listen to him?

Not to mention like Barcelona now, the superstar's right to speak obviously overpowers the head coach, and leaking the news of Ferrer's departure in advance is simply roasting the head coach on the fire, who still listens to him?

"Barcelona is finished!"

…………

…………

"We've been tricked!"

In the media area, Cruyff's face changed slightly, and he said in a trembling voice.

"Medium?" The TV announcer didn't understand.

"Yes, it was a trick from the start!" Cruyff affirmed.

"Why?"

"We were completely dragged away by each other. ”

"What?"

"Whether we have personal ability or technical ability, we have to surpass the opponent, in the case of the opponent's tight defense, or press the strong attack, with a fast-paced offensive, plus the front court pressing pressure, force the opponent to make mistakes, and then use the player's personal ability advantage to solve the opponent. ”

The TV commentator reminded: "But our midfield didn't do a very good job of pressing. ”

This is said very secretly, mainly because the stars in the front court did not actively participate in the counter-attack.

"You're right, since the strong attack can't work, then you can only retreat, slow down the pace appropriately, and patiently look for opportunities. ”

The on-site commentator now understood, "Through the change of rhythm of fast and slow, forcibly create loopholes in the opponent's defense." ”

Cruyff nodded, but his brow looked worried.

"Like now, the pressure is so high, but the rhythm is slowed down by the opponent's use of tight defense, and it can't be fast, and under the opponent's tight defensive position, there is no gap at all, and there is no threatening attack, which is very dangerous. ”

"In this case, any counterattack by the opponent can create a killing opportunity, so every time Atletico Madrid's counterattack is forcing our midfielders to do their best to return to the defense, running back and forth, which is not only a huge physical exertion, but also a mental torment. ”

The TV commentator was also stunned, "Ferrer also seems to be aware of the problem, and has frequently called for the team to retreat. ”

"I guess few people listen to him!"

Cruyff shook his head and sighed, "I've said more than once since the beginning of this season that he hasn't been able to integrate the team effectively, especially in attack, and has relied more on the individual performance of the stars up front. ”

"In the face of a tight defensive formation like Atletico Madrid, relying too much on individual players will only slow down the tempo of the team, which in turn will lead to the team being dragged into a slow-paced quagmire by the opponent. ”

"The pace is slow, but the team is pressing as a whole, which makes it difficult for our offense to create a threat, not to mention, but to expose the holes in our own defense in front of the opponent, which is a slow suicide!"

Speaking of this, Cruyff suddenly felt a chill in his back and looked at Gao Han in the coaching area below the stands.

Is that his strategy for this match?

A twenty-three-year-old kid can develop such a game strategy?

What's even more terrifying is that he not only worked it out, but was able to put it into practice and let the team play according to his wishes, which is simply ......

At this moment, Gao Han suddenly turned around and made a new move.

…………

…………

"Kiko. ”

As soon as Kiko on the bench heard the head coach call his name, he jumped up and looked at the head coach with eager anticipation in his eyes.

"Go warm up, hurry up!"

After saying that, Gao Han turned back and looked at the court again.

Kiko's heart was hot, and he immediately agreed and ran to the sidelines to warm up.

The scene that appeared on the bench of Atletico Madrid was immediately captured by the fans in the stands and the sensitive live TV camera, and in an instant, the whole audience was in an uproar.

……

"We see that Atletico Madrid is ready to make a substitution!"

"It seems that the head coach Gao Han is very dissatisfied with the current situation of the team and wants to go to Kiko, but he doesn't know who he will replace. ”

The whole stadium of Atletico Madrid fans was boiling, and there was a saying in the Spanish second division that every on-the-spot command and substitution of Gao Han could change the situation of the game. ”

"This time, against the mighty Barcelona, Atletico Madrid has been at a disadvantage for a long time, and I don't know if the replacement of Kiko can change the situation, and it is not difficult for us to guess Gao Han's intentions. ”

"Kiko is tall, but his skills are very thin, facing a backline with an average height of less than 1.8 meters, and a height advantage of more than 10 centimeters is enough for a high striker like Kiko to play. ”

"The fans at the scene were all caught by this upcoming substitution, the Atletico Madrid fans were cheering, and the Barcelona fans were apprehensive, which looked very interesting, and only a cold substitution can affect the emotions of the fans in this way. ”

……

"It's too early, isn't it?" Cantarero walked over.

According to the team's previous plan, it should have been changed after 65 minutes, and now it is only 58 minutes.

"Ferrer isn't stupid, he won't be caught with his hands tied, and besides, in my opinion, it's pretty much the same. ”

Barcelona pressed for a long time, the backline players were under a lot of pressure, and every counterattack of the Sheets, whether they were threatening or not, they had to return to defend quickly, run back and forth, and consume a lot of physical energy.

Coupled with the nerves that have been tense for a long time, as well as the two imps of Villa and Torres, especially Torres, have frequently interspersed back and forth, which has brought a lot of trouble to Barcelona's backline.

At least in terms of physical exertion, it's about the same.

Gao Han saw the worry in Cantarero's eyes and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Carlos, we Chinese have a saying, soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, what is planned in advance?"

As he spoke, Kiko ran back.

"Boss, I'm ready!"

At first, with the status and influence of Kiko, it was somewhat awkward to call Gao Han Boss, but gradually, I got used to it.

"After you go up, you are the tallest in the entire midfield, I will let them smash all the counter-attacking balls on your head, you must grab it for me, do you have confidence?"

Kiko nodded heavily, "Yes!"

"Pull back more, pull their defenders out, you know what I mean?"

"Understood!" Kiko immediately smiled and nodded.

He has been playing professional football for so many years, and if he still doesn't understand what Gao Han means, it will be miserable.

"Let Ugo roam around you and grab the second spot. ”

"yes, okay!" Kiko nodded again.

"Tell Villa and let his boy ambush me!"

"Understood. ”

"Go, replace Torres!"

Kiko's eyes flashed with admiration, but he didn't say anything and immediately went about it.

Everyone in Atletico Madrid knows that Torres is a diehard loyalist of Gao Han, but in this game, Torres became a weapon in Gao Han's hands to consume Barcelona's backline.

It was arranged before the game, and Torres himself knew about it and accepted it.

It's just that Gao Han's selfless approach is still admirable.
