208 Tactical changes

"Well, the audience friends in front of the TV, now we can see that the players of both sides have been at the home of Udinese, the Friuli Stadium for the final warm-up before the game, according to the official news given by Serie A, the official start time of this game is 45 minutes later"

The television camera then cuts directly to the Friuli Stadium. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, on the field, the players of both sides occupy each half of the court and are doing the final pre-match warm-up activities, but it seems that the expressions of the players on both sides are very relaxed, talking and laughing.

In the Milan half, Chen Long was jogging with captain Rodriguez to press his legs, and the two seemed to be actively exchanging something, which seemed a bit surprising.

After talking with Rodriguez for a while, Chen Long took the initiative to find Lukaku not far away, the two talked and laughed, if you don't understand, it really means, the two of them have known each other a long time ago.

And on the side of the pitch, Coach Assist Falia frowned as if he was hesitating something! After a moment's hesitation, Varia strode towards Mourinho, who was not far away.

"Jose, have you really decided? Isn't it a bit risky to think about it again. ”

Jose Mourinho: God, Varia, we've been working together for so long, you should know me, just do it, and in a minute, let's get the starting line-up out.

Varia: Hosai, but we haven't used this tactic very often before, will there be problems with the players' cooperation, or will the players be able to adapt to it? That's a big question.

Jose Mourinho: Listen, first of all we've been instilling this tactic in our players for the last few days, we've trained a lot and secondly, I believe in my players, I'm sure they can do a good job.

Mania: But ,,,,

Jose Mourinho: Don't hesitate, old man, just do what I say.

"What a stubborn old bastard, I hope you're right, but, it's really a risk, I can't even imagine how the outside world will feel when they hear the news," Falia muttered to herself as she walked to the locker room.

Mania kept shaking his head, it seemed that he was really worried about Mourinho's decision, but at the same time, he was also very helpless.

"Hell, double center striker tactics, Mourinho, I really don't know what you think, you still really plan to take the name of "madman" to the ground."

There is a real apprehension in Mana's heart now, because just three days ago, Mourinho suddenly told himself that he was going to change his tactics and use a "double centre-forward" tactic against Udinese.

For the "double center" tactic, Faria knows very well, at the same time, he also knows, Milan players also know this tactic, but, before, Mourinho rarely used this tactic, even if it is used, it is temporary, a game, at most a temporary use of ten to twenty minutes, but, now, Mourinho told himself that this game against Udinese, not only will use the "double center" tactic, but also the whole game. This made Varia unable to sit still, and in the past few days, he has been trying to persuade Mourinho to change his decision, but to no avail.

This surprised Clarity at the time, as it is well known that Mourinho's favourite or most successful tactic is 1-4-3-3, but now Mourinho has told himself that he intends to use a "double centre-forward" tactic, which is 1-4-4-2.

The two-center tactic refers to the use of two tall centers with strong attacking ability, standing in front of the opponent's goal to attack. The two players are each on the two-metre line in front of the two posts, about 3 metres apart, and once an attacking player cuts in from the middle to shoot, one of the two centre-forwards pulls away and the other stays in the same position, ready to shoot.

In football, when it comes to the use of the "double centre-forward" tactic, we have to mention the evolution of Dutch football.

The two-centre-forward tactic has always been one of the hallmarks of Dutch football's all-attacking and all-defensive play: using the ice prince Bergkamp to respond to the position, tearing up the gaps, and creating opportunities for the point-grabbing center to create a combination of land and air for the center, has always been the secret of the unique offensive system of Dutch football. Since Euro 2004, when Basten took charge of the Dutch national team, the Dutch team has not used a two-centre-forward strategy for 10 years. The peerless sword score of Dutch football was once lost.

Most media reporters who don't know the essence of Dutch football only know that they don't know the other to make a utilitarian definition of Dutch football, and they don't know that this is the Dutch team's simplification of attack methods after not using the two-center tactics, which is not as rich as the original, but lacks many mysterious changes in the three-dimensional offensive collocation of air and ground.

In 2016, when Dutch football was at its lowest point, head coach Guus Hiddink re-introduced the magic weapon of two center forwards, and the Dutch team's style of play was completely renewed, and they immediately won a hearty victory.

With the "magic weapon of double center forwards", Dutch football in recent years can be regarded as a re-emergence, and in the World Series, although it is still the "uncrowned king", it is also a headache for many teams.

After 20 minutes, players from both sides walked to the dressing room, which meant that the game began immediately.

In Milan, the match was broadcast live by Sport, and commentator Peta and special guest Walter had already arrived in the studio.

Peta: It's a bit strange, the game is about to start, and Milan's starting line-up doesn't seem to have been announced yet, you know, Mourinho hasn't been in the habit of announcing the starting line-up in the dressing room.

Walter: Haha, who knows what new tricks the "madman" is playing, he will never play his cards according to common sense. It's only 20 minutes before the start of the game, and I think the starting list will be announced as well!

Peta: In this game, Mourinho has not announced the starting lineup for a long time, which means that his starting lineup, compared with the last game, will definitely change, and I really can't wait to know what kind of starting lineup Mourinho will come out with.

Walter: Rather than wanting to know what kind of starting lineup Mourinho wants to put out, I want to know more about this game, the young Chinese player Chen Long, whether he will have a chance to play in this game, you know, for China, especially good Chinese football, I have a certain "special experience", you know, I have played in the Chinese league in my career, Chinese football, to be honest, I hope that it can get higher and higher, and Chen Long, it seems, seems to be the hope of Chinese football.

"Here we are, Milan's starting line-up has been announced, huh? My God? This" (to be continued.) )
