In the second half, Mini played as a lone striker, Matri was in front, Pagano played in front, and Akori's intention was obvious, and in the second half he was to strengthen his control of the midfield and play a game of possession. Lakini frantically replaced a defender, played a three-striker tactic, and played a long pass and rush, but his actions were useless, except that the defender could open his feet, and the midfielder really couldn't find the ball point, Rimini spent a lot of energy on the midfield defense to control the ball, isn't it just to make your midfield ineffective.

Lakini did not make any further adjustments, and after half-time, Piacenza's morale did not improve, and finally both sides ended the second half in a peaceful and friendly way, so that Rimini eliminated Piacenza with an aggregate score of 4:1 and successfully entered the next round.

Genoa, on the other hand, has also defeated Brescia with a score of 3:0 over two legs and successfully advanced to the next round.

Before half-time, the Piacenza fans knew that the score was 3:0, and there were signs of commotion, and the Rimini police lined up a wall to encircle the Piacenza fans, and finally prevented the commotion from turning into a riot, and after the game, the Piacenza fans were sent out of the country, okay, the game is over, you have lost, you should cry and go home and cry!

Lakini looked very disappointed at the post-game press conference, but he praised his players, thinking that in the disadvantaged situation, his team still played out the style and level, and opened his eyes and said nonsense to refer to Lakini, the reporters below were dumbfounded, you are also considered to be out of the style and out of the level! Big brother, are you talking the opposite?!

Lakini hurriedly said a few words and left, is Lakini really that stupid? Of course not, don't think that everyone can bring Piacenza this team to this level, he is the head coach so that he will not be so easily provoked, the tactical arrangement of the beginning, he wants to grab a start, this style of play is very common in football, wait for ten minutes to attack, he will definitely make adjustments, but I didn't expect his defensive system to be a bit scum, 8 minutes by Rimini played a counterattack, the first counterattack was completed, backward, the attack can only become a strong attack! No way, who made Piacenza have to score two goals!

Instead of letting Piacenza go down again, Akori told reporters that his team was playing well, but Piacenza is a very good team, but his players are a bit luckier. It seems that pulling hatred is not what Akori thinks.

Looking ahead to the next match, Akori said his side will not be afraid of Genoa and will definitely do their best to qualify. This is basically equivalent to not telling anything to reporters, and everyone knows that you have to fight.

Zhang Yuan once again became a key figure in Rimini, after the game reporters asked him to talk about the team's performance and his own performance, Zhang Yuan first praised the team, thinking that the team has always been patient enough in this game, the whole team played well, and the final victory is a matter of course. Regarding his performance, he modestly said that the support of his teammates was the main reason for his good performance.

He is telling the truth, although today's Rimini played a defensive counterattack at the beginning, but because at home, the two backs are not blindly dragging behind, and can provide Zhang Yuan with some support, otherwise it may not be easy for him and Jeda to single out the opponent's defense.

As for Genoa, he said that the team and himself will do their best, as for whether they can be promoted, Zhang Yuan did not say big things, but said that the team that performs well will naturally advance.

The reporters revealed a meaning in their questioning, Genoa is popular, and Rimini is not so optimistic, is Genoa really that scary?

Genoa is really that scary for Rimini, and this season in Serie B excluding the special presence of Juventus, Genoa is the most attacking team, they have scored 68 goals, 16 more than Napoli in second place, and 10 more than Rimini.

Genoa coach Gasperini is a 100% Juventus, received youth training at Juventus, played for Juventus for a short time, became Juventus's youth coach after retiring, and then came out to coach other teams, his coaching style seems to be different from Juventus's solid defensive style, he is better at adjusting the team's attack, this season he coached Genoa is very sharp in attack, but the defense, very average, Genoa conceded 44 goals, more than Rimini, a full 15 more than Napoli。

Everyone can see why the second is Napoli instead of Genoa, Italian football generally focuses on defense, and the team with good defense is a strong contender for the championship, which seems to be a consensus in Italian football, so Italian teams attach great importance to the defensive system.

Gasperini is obviously focused on the construction of the offensive system, but there are some problems in the establishment of the defensive system, and other teams have a much greater chance of upsetting against them, so they have lost 11 games this season, while Napoli have only lost 5 games, and Genoa is not complaining at all.

Football pays attention to the way of survival between offense and defense, some teams pay attention to defense, some teams pay attention to attack, and teams in every direction have the possibility of success, not that they must defend and attack to achieve success.

Genoa's current situation shows that they haven't found a balance between offense and defense, and it's no wonder that even the most skilled players have good cards in their hands, and Genoa's players don't have good cards in every position. If their team has a lot of offensive involvement, then there will inevitably be less energy to put into defense, and a single mistake can make a big mistake. Defensively invested, offensive energy is bound to be reduced, and it is difficult to find a balance between Genoa's offense and defense.

And some strong teams are different, they have good cards in their hands, mainly attacking, but they have good cards in the construction of the defensive system, so that they can also establish a better defensive system, and the offense will not be so easy to be penetrated by the opponent if the defense is not played.

There are also strong teams with good defensive systems, but the offensive system has good cards, and they can also establish an offensive system that suits them, and they don't need too many opportunities, and one or two games are enough to kill the game.

The position of the head coach in modern football is becoming more and more important, because a good coach can use a limited number of cards to find a balance between attack and defense through changes in formation and tactics, which is difficult for ordinary coaches to do.

Gasperini has only been in charge of Genoa for a year, and now he is not so invincible, so the balance between attack and defense has not been found, and the cards in his hand are indeed very limited.

Akori has long begun to study Genoa's game, from the regular season, Genoa is a very offensive team, but it's not that defense can't work, conceding 44 goals is nothing in Akori's eyes, Genoa has one draw and one loss against Juventus, and two draws against Napoli, the video can be seen that Genoa against these two teams did not take an active attack like against other teams, but first based on defense, their defense is not really very general, on the contrary, if they concentrate on defense, although they are not enough in front of Juventus, but Napoli is deflated。 Judging from the knockout round against Brescia, Genoa has also changed and has reservations in attack.

Akori was stumped, he didn't know what strategy Genoa would adopt when he played against Rimini again, Rimini's defense was very average, although he was as focused as Genoa, and the opponent was not so easy to break, but Genoa's attack was stronger, and Akori didn't know if his defense could hold on.

In the regular season, Rimini and Genoa won and lost each other, although the media was not optimistic about Rimini, but the Rimini players were not disappointed, on the contrary, they were not afraid of an opponent like Genoa, the reason is because Rimini did not suffer in the regular season.

Acori thinks about the situation of the two teams this season, he intends to fight the opponent in the midfield this time, Genoa attack is mainly carried out through ground attack, Akori intends to block the control of the opponent's midfield on the one hand, cut off the connection between the opponent's midfield and the striker, and on the other hand, through his own midfield to give Zhang Yuan them enough support, even if the home team Akori thinks that he should be based on defense first.

Genoa is accustomed to the 343 formation, which is also biased towards attack, used to use three strikers, and there are more attacking players in the first team, scoring 68 goals throughout the season, but the scorers are evenly distributed, there are no top scorers, but every striker can score, and the midfielder can also insert to score. Akori analyzed and felt that Genoa's situation was mainly due to the huge role played by their attacking system, rather than simply relying on forwards to support the attack, and the midfield creativity was very active, which is why he was bent on cutting off the connection between Genoa's midfield and forwards.

But this is not enough, Genoa's three-striker formation is a very big test for the back line, and most of their forwards are famous stars, like Di Vaio, Adelton, Scully, Figueroa These forwards are all playing in the top league teams, have strong strength, and have a strong ability to play the ball with each other, and it is definitely not possible to adopt man-to-man tactics, they are four defenders, no matter how they are stared, it is best to adopt regional joint defense.

Akori did the same in training, but it was up to Genoa to test whether it really worked.
