Psychological quality is not only an important factor to measure the strength level of a player, but also an important basis for evaluating a manager's coaching ability.

The football field is changing rapidly, and unexpected changes may occur at any time, the careful preparation and strategizing before the game are also a test of the manager's ability to make decisions and trade-offs, and the face of winning or losing after the game is a test of a manager's determination.

And these are all important manifestations of psychological quality.

As a legendary superstar in the past, Zidane's psychological quality naturally needs not be said, but in front of the two finals of the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, he can't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, especially when he has just been frustrated in the league, which is naturally affected.

Last season's Copa del Rey final was in early April, after Chinatown lost to Atletico Madrid, the league was affected, but there was still plenty of time to adjust, but this season is different, the Copa del Rey final and the Champions League final are only a week apart, and there are no other competitions in between, if you lose the Copa del Rey final first, it will inevitably affect the Champions League final a week later.

Therefore, Zidane's hesitation and lack of confidence are understandable.

"Let me tell you what I think. Gao Han smiled softly.

Including Zidane and Makellele, everyone suddenly looked at Gao Han in unison.

Since he retired from the professional league, he has become less and less involved in the team's technical and tactical level and game preparation, even if he sometimes communicates with Zidane in private, he is more still pointing, and rarely speaks in front of so many people like now.

But since he wants to express his thoughts, everyone else has to listen.

This is Gao Han's current status in Chinatown and even in European football.

Gao Han had a gentle smile on his face, as if what he was facing was not two finals at all, but an insignificant friendly match, giving people a very breezy and unworldly feeling.

"One hundred and twenty-three goals, so we have received great praise for our attacking players this season, not to mention Hazard, it is estimated that at least this year can be in the top three of the Ballon d'Or, and even one step further, Firmino and Griezmann are now Europe's first-rate attackers, superstar players. ”

Everyone nodded in unison, and the team's style of play did contribute to the rise of these attacking players.

'But I think the biggest change this season has been in the midfield, especially the two who are further up in the three, and they have a very high degree of freedom in the whole tactical framework of the team. ”

When many people heard this, they all showed a thoughtful look, only Zidane nodded silently.

He is the architect of the team's tactical play, and of course he knows what Gao Han means.

"The birth of this style of play should have originated from the 3-1 home win over Barcelona, we not only beat the opponent in the result, but also completely suppressed Barcelona on the field, I believe that that game gave us confidence, so the coaching staff decided to continue digging in this direction. ”

When Zidane heard this, he smiled bitterly and nodded: "You're right, it's true." ”

He really had a feeling that Gao Han had seen through it.

"Isco and De Bruyne are in front of the midfield, the two players' activity areas are more aimed at the opponent's two rib areas, Barcelona is a single midfielder, Isco and De Bruyne have strong ability to attack with the ball, they plug in after the ball, and take the initiative to find three attacking players in the front field to cooperate, which is the main reason why we completely suppress Barcelona. ”

Zidane and Makelele glanced at each other, and both pairs of eyes flashed with admiration.

Although Gao Han left the first-line coach's seat, his eyesight was better than before.

Maybe this has a lot to do with him being a bystander, but in any case, he broke through the key to Chinatown's victory.

"After that, you start experimenting with this style of play, using the dribbling and passing of the two central midfielders in the ribs to create a threat and disrupt the opposition's defence, but you soon find that it doesn't work when the opponent is defending intensively, so you keep digging deeper and further free up the two central midfielders. ”

'When the team pushes into the 30-metre zone, when the opposition defends intensively and our ribs are blocked, the two central midfielders are more free, and even more often, they pull to the wings, as Isco and Eden Hazard combined on the left, and they even take on the role of wingers. ”

'The two centre-backs suddenly pulled to the outside and the two wingers cut inside diagonally, which was an effective stretch for the opposition defence, and whether it was Isco and De Bruyne, or Pogba and Koke, they were able to avoid the opposition's heavy guards on the flanks and then use the numerical advantage on both sides to attack the opposition's flanks and ribs. ”

'This was even more evident in the second half of the season, with the two centre-backs even intersecting frequently, not only on their own, but also with Eden Hazard and Antoine Griezmann, which led to a huge improvement in our attacking fluidity up front, and it was difficult for the opposition to completely contain our attack. ”

"Of course, the players who were originally in the middle were pulled to the wings, and the offensive advantage is obvious, but there is also a disadvantage, which is that our central defense can become very empty, especially when it comes to the transition between attack and defence. ”

Gao Han's words were simple and straightforward, but they made it clear to everyone why the team's final trend this season would be the way it was, and why the team's offense was so good, but the defense was constantly problematic.

There is absolutely no problem with the combination of Varane and De Vrij, the two central defenders have even touched the door of Europe's top central defenders, plus Marquinhos and Umtiti, Chinatown's central defenders are definitely not bad.

But there are so many goals conceded this season, which has always made people wonder, but now when I hear Gao Han say this, everyone understands that this is the case.

"Actually, I think it's not impossible to make up for the defensive problem, for example, when the two central midfielders pull the side, the corresponding full-back is adducted and close to the midfielder to protect the wing. Gao Han said.

Zidane nodded, "I thought so too, but I never had a chance to give it a try." ”

In the tone, the French coach's admiration for Gao Han is obviously even greater.

"I would say that so far this season the team has had a mature system of operation in terms of passing, which is very satisfying and I believe that no matter who we are against, we will definitely have a good fight in terms of passing, even against Barcelona. ”

Under Zidane's tutelage, the team's young players have improved tremendously.

The improvement of the four midfielders of Isco, De Bruyne, Paul Pogba and Koke has been particularly noticeable, which has improved the entire midfield possession of the ball in Chinatown.

"We've finished runners-up in La Liga two seasons in a row, we've reached the Copa del Rey final two seasons in a row, we've reached the Champions League final two seasons in a row, and there's no other team in European football that has done as much as we do, so we have to be confident in ourselves. ”

When Gao Han said this, he once again looked deeply at Zidane.

"The pass-and-control style of play is a proactive style of play, the initiative is in me, what we need to do is to improve our own style of play, fill in the weaknesses and shortcomings, as for how the opponent will play, what kind of tactics will be adopted, it will not affect us at all. ”

Gao Han has always believed that Zidane is a very pragmatic head coach who will choose different tactical plays according to different opponents, but it is precisely because of this that he hesitates and hesitates before the tournament.

But sometimes, what a manager needs is persistence, persistence.

'I believe that whether Enrique plays Xavi or not, we have to do everything we can to get the ball in our hands and only then can we hope to win. ”

The reason why Barcelona lost away in the league was precisely because of the loss of possession.

Gao Han's words did not touch on the details, but they brought Zidane an enlightening stimulus, allowing him to clear the clouds and see the blue sky, and completely think through the original hesitation and hesitation.

And the reason why Gao Han has such confidence is not only because of the team's own strength, but also because Xavi is old, Iniesta has also lost the fighting spirit of the early years, and now Barcelona is no longer the threat of the peak of the year.

"The game we lost at Camp Nou earlier, we have to win it back!" Gao Han said with a loud voice.

Get up from where you fall, that's what Gao Han wants to say.

…………

The Copa del Rey final will take place at the Camp Nou, something that was decided early in the season.

At that time, no one knew who would reach the final, so the final match between Barcelona and Chinatown undoubtedly created the illusion that Barcelona was playing at home.

But in fact, this game Barcelona is away.

The home and away were decided by drawing lots before the game, and Chinatown drew the home team draw.

That's why Enrique joked before the game that it should be a different taste to use the visitors' dressing room at Camp Nou.

Zinedine Zidane also countered by joking that Chinatown would dominate the Camp Nou.

On the night of the game, at least half of the Chinatown fans sat in the stands at the Camp Nou.

In Barcelona's history, they have reached the Copa del Rey final 37 times, won 26 titles, and the success rate is quite high, and at the Camp Nou, Barcelona's victory is even more impressive.

This match has attracted the attention of fans all over the world, after all, Chinatown and Barcelona are the most watched teams in European football this season, especially Chinatown, which has the highest number of goals in European football and amazing attacking firepower.

But many believe that Chinatown's defense will be an opportunity for Barcelona.

Luis Enrique was the main player in this game.

Goalkeeper Valdés, Alba, Pique, Otamendi and Alves at the back, Sergio Busquets in midfield, Andres Iniesta and Rakitic in the middle, and Pedro, Suarez and Messi in the front three.

Brazilian right-back Alves has all but set his departure at the end of the season and Barcelona are currently in a tight search for a right-back, with the most likely target being Danilo in Chinatown.

In midfield, Luis Enrique did not start Xavi, which somewhat reflects Enrique's calculations.

Zidane is also the main force.

De Gea was in goal, Alex Sandro, De Vrij, Raphael Varane and Montoya at the back, N'Golo Kante in midfield, Paul Pogba and Kevin De Bruyne in the middle, and Hazard, Roberto Firmino and Antoine Griezmann in the front three.

Pogba started this game, and Zidane mainly considered Isco's injury to make him better prepared for the Champions League final, and at the same time regarded Pogba as a surprise soldier.

As for Paul Pogba, he has become more and more of a big player this season and is a vital member of the team's midfield rotation.
