Chapter 350
The assistant looked at Scolari wordlessly.
It is said that Brazilians can play, and I am honest!
At this moment, the ball at Figo's feet has been easily cut off by Juan, and there have been many midfield masters in the Portuguese team, but most of them are biased towards the type of attack, and there is no very good candidate in terms of interception.
So when facing such players, everyone in Portugal is relatively inexperienced.
Figo has a lot of experience in being cut off, and that was when he was at Camp Nou, and there was an Argentine midfielder in Real Madrid opposite him who was good at creating psychological shadows for others, and every interception could make Figo begin to doubt his life.
…… Now, this feeling of doubt about life is especially strong, and it is not in that person, but in his own young man.
Thinking of this, Figo was a little overwhelmed.
But at this time, the football was cut off, of course, he couldn't just sit idly by, Portugal's veteran captain didn't even be stunned after the ball was cut off all at once, he reacted very quickly, and turned around directly to chase Juan, and his movements were amazingly fast.
Many players are amazed that they can do such a thing as their own captain!
You know, no matter who faced Juan just now, they were stunned for a moment, the first is that they really can't react, and it takes a little time; The second is that it will take a little time to determine whether Juan will pass the ball or continue to dribble the ball next......
However, Figo obviously did not have such concerns, and after the football was tackled, he immediately began to chase back, so fast that Juan only had time to adjust his posture before he had to send the ball away.
Seeing that Juan was not so comfortable on the court for the first time, the players of the Figo team subconsciously cheered, but the through plug given by Juan still made them scramble in an instant.
The person who received the ball was Cristiano Ronaldo.
To be honest, their little teammates usually like to play with flower work the most, and many people are quite happy to watch him play these foot kung fu, and several of their younger generation in the national team can play in foot kung fu for a long time, whether it is passing or doing flower work.
However, when on the court, too many tricks can easily be seen by the players, especially when the game is played, in the face of a difficult guy to deal with, there will be a situation where the opposite side will be interrupted before the job is finished.
Is there such a tough guy defense in the Portugal team?
There is, and there is more than one.
And it's all on the Figo side.
However, Cristiano was not afraid, Juan had already shown his trust in him when he sent the ball over, how could he be wrong?
In fact, both Postiga and Quaresma made a little mistake just now, they are strikers after all, and a small mistake misses a goal, but this is a very common thing, after all, shooting is their job, and any small mistakes can be forgiven.
But Cristiano knows that the midfield and the back are not the same.
A mistake in the midfield is the conversion of the ball, and a mistake in the backfield may be a loss of the ball.
Cristiano is the only one, but in fact, in their generation, he is already good. If the two more serious ones can pass the ball generously, why can't he?
So when Juan sent the ball over, everyone thought that it was up to Cristiano to break through alone, but in fact, under the wide-eyed gaze of most people, Cristiano looked at the situation in front of him, and then directly made a high cross.
He made a brilliant pass, and the ball crossed a rainbow arc in the air before falling into another position.
And Cristiano's point is also very clear, so clear that the people of the Figo team can't help but sigh when they see who the other party is.
Deco.
It's Deco again!
In fact, Portugal's tactics are very simple, they just need to fancy-play the ball to Deco's position in midfield and wait for Deco to make any arrangements.
Of course, such a situation can at least improve the efficiency of the team a little, that is, Deco himself is more tired, after all, he is the one who coordinates the whole situation.
Of course, Juan can also manage the overall situation, but he also knows that at least his way of playing is still a little different from the Portuguese team, whether it is in terms of normal times or in the future.
And he and Scolari still have some incompatibility in the team's tactics, this is an intra-team game, and Scolari took the initiative to say whether to use two formations to face each other, otherwise Juan will never say more.
At least at this time, Juan had already recognized that both the person on the other side and the situation on his own side were actually a bit chaotic, and although some of the players on both sides were not very familiar with either side, most of them were still players who knew each other very well.
In such a situation, if you want to win, you still have to rely on the understanding of the players on both sides, otherwise it is easy to have a lot of unexpected situations.
Juan, for example, is now in an unexpected situation.
Of course, at least Juan is really in his own team now, and he doesn't have to do too much extra consideration, which makes Deco a lot easier.
He also knew that the best way to stop Juan was to send someone to follow him closely and not let him touch the ball, in fact, such tactics were not uncommon before, such as Maradona, alien Ronaldo, and Ronaldinho have all enjoyed such treatment.
Of course, they're actually about the same age as Juan is now, and a few of them are even a little younger, so it's a good idea to play with a little brain.
It's a pity that Figo is still too cautious in the selection of candidates.
Deco felt that if he were Figo, he would rather play on his own or Gomez, which would also make Juan a little scruple - both of them are top strikers, and if Juan really didn't pay attention to them, it was very likely that it would not be the Figo team who would be killed in the end.
Scolari looked at the situation on the field and said with a smile: "Actually, I think the current situation in Portugal is still good, as the captain, Figo's idea is quite good, and of course, the hard work of the national team newcomer Nani is indeed worth encouraging." ”
"That's true," the assistant smiled and nodded, "so do you have a ready candidate for the first game?" ”
"Of course." Scolari smiled, his expression relaxed. "I think Deco is very motivated now, and we have him at the core."
Motivated?
The assistant coach was stunned, obviously not expecting to hear such a comment, but when he looked at the court, he instantly understood why.
- Deco is really excited.
He's running fast, probably the fastest he's run in the national team this year, and he's even running with a soccer ball at his feet and doesn't look back when he runs.
Why?
Because he was followed by a man......
When they saw the figure, Scolari and the assistant teacher opened their mouths at the same time, looked at each other, and were a little speechless: "This ......"
The teaching assistant coughed lightly: "It seems that this kid is really not afraid of being beaten." ”
"I think so." Scolari looked serious, "He's worked so hard, I really think I should have at least given him a chance when he played." ”
The teaching assistant didn't react for a while: "What chance?" ”
"Playing to scare the opposing player ...... chances"
It's really amazing, Nani, the black boy, staring at his big black copper bell eyes, and blowing like a little black whirlwind, is it okay for anyone to worry in their hearts?
As soon as Deco was chased by him like this, he subconsciously began to run, and the situation on the court was uncontrollable in an instant.
It's too late! Come and see! Nani is running all over the field with Deco!
Neither Juan nor Cristiano obviously expected such a situation to happen, especially when Deco suddenly sprang up at speed, which was stunned.
It has been proven that if you are forced to do so, your potential is endless......
Juan soon realized that this was actually an opportunity, and he immediately shouted and began to gather his own midfield, and then directly pressed on the army!
In the process of running, Juan also reached out and patted Cristiano, who looked sluggish and seemed to be unresponsive: "Don't be in a daze! ”
"Where?" Cristiano subconsciously followed suit, which didn't seem to be very similar to the training he usually received at Manchester United. And what if they run around now, and the players can't find them later?
What should I do if there is a hole in the midfield?
"Just come with me." Juan smiled at him, a smile that instantly relieved his heart, and Cristiano nodded and stepped forward.
"Coach! Look, Coach Scolari!! The assistant coach slapped Scolari's arm desperately, and Scolari hissed in pain: "I'm not blind!" ”
Of course, he knew what the teaching assistant was excited about, and in fact he had been looking forward to this scene for a long time.
The army presses down - Juan Díaz's forte!
The Portuguese players didn't press the whole line forward, and in fact it wasn't quite the same as the tactical philosophy they had learned.
Isn't that the back empty?
Won't you give each other a gap?
And at this time, the command brain of their whole team is being chased all over the field, and the opposite side has obviously begun to encircle and suppress Deco, where is Juan leading half of their team at this time?
They were a little dazed, but when they realized that Juan was leading them in the direction of the opponent's small forbidden area, they were all excited.
Is Juan here trying to make a big deal?
No one knew what Juan wanted to do at this time, but everyone was eager to try.
It looks like he's going to do something bad!
Juan really wanted to take the players on a big deal, and he knew how Deco was feeling right now — the urgency of being chased by a vicious dog or a goose was terrifying......
To tell the truth, Nani himself is so lethal!
Of course, Juan couldn't bear to watch his core being chased away like this, he was going to lead a group of people to save people at this time.
How to save?
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to get the ball from him?
With so many midfielders to pick it up, he didn't believe he couldn't get the ball for Deco!
The other side was obviously aware of the problem, and when the group of them wanted to rush over, a group of people also came from the other side to intercept them.
Figo went straight to Juan.
Scolari's mouth opened wide, obviously not expecting Figo to be so excited, and Juan didn't expect Figo to think so much.
"Captain?" Juan blinked.
Figo was heavy: "I know what you want to ask me, Juan, it was a wrong decision to call Nani to defend you in the first place, in fact, I should have better do this dangerous thing myself...... This is the responsibility and obligation that you should take as a captain! ”
It's really touching when he says that, right...... But......
Juan paused and showed a bright smile: "That's a good word, captain, but it turns out that you have always treated me as a villain......"
"......" Figo opened his mouth, feeling as if he had said something wrong.
"So I've always been like this in Your Excellency's mind......" Juan continued slowly, this time even using honorifics.
Figo coughed lightly: "What, Juan, I'm not ......"
"I understand." Juan showed a big smile at the big guy and ran away, Figo's heart was cold, but he was about to grit his teeth and follow, but he heard an exclamation in front of the goal.
Figo was stunned and turned his head sharply.
What he saw was Ricardo's posture leaping up! And the ball that was hit!
For a moment, Figo had a feeling of being deceived.
"Your attack...... The main point of attack is not you? Figo looked back and felt his voice a little hoarse.
"Of course not," Juan replied with a "caring for the mentally retarded, like you," "or I can talk to you here?" ”
Although he is the one who encourages everyone to run forward, he is definitely not the one who goes to the front with everyone to shine, after all, he is actually not so obsessed with the goal, and he also knows that his goal is too big, and it is good to stand in the back and share a little attention for everyone.
…… As a result, his captain rushed over.
Obviously, at this time, a player like Figo, who has a great deterrent power in headers, should stand in the small penalty area to compete for the header, no matter how it is said, it can also contribute to the defense of his own team, and as long as he stands there, the players of Deco's team will also throw a mouse.
…… But on the contrary, he came to Juan without hesitation.
Juan suddenly began to be a little worried about the IQ of the strikers of the Portuguese national team...... However, when he thought that he had known so many strikers over the years, it seemed that only Raul was mutated, and the others were all such intuitive strikers who couldn't turn their brains, and Juan's heart suddenly balanced.
"Ricardo has already saved you twice." Juan patted Figo on the shoulder and smiled, "You guys have to keep up the good work." ”
Figo opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he heard Scolari on the edge of the pitch shout: "Juan! ”
Juan turned his head and saw Scolari gesturing at him twice, smiling very kindly: "This is a loss of competition in the game, come, change a few players on both sides." ”
“…… Is this all right? Juan was dumbfounded, "Didn't we plan to do that at the beginning?" ”
"Isn't it a plan that can't keep up with the changes?" Coach Scolari clapped his hands, "Come on, everyone listen to my command next......"
Scolari does have his own agenda...... For example, he now wants to know why Figo's team is not any worse than the opposite side except for Nani in the front court, why is it like this?
You must know that most of the Figo team is the main lineup, and only three or four people are not the main team, and Deco and Juan's side are indeed most of the substitute lineup - or rather, in addition to Deco and Cristiano, even Juan himself is in the bench lineup.
He couldn't understand why this situation occurred, although the midfield is a great improvement for a team, but will it be big enough to make the substitute team counter the main lineup?
…… But when you think about it, it doesn't seem very fair to put a presence like Juan Díaz on the bench......
Then the two sides really changed "slightly", Deco, the captain, was changed to the opposite side, and Figo, who came over, was confused.
“…… So the two teams swapped, is it just that the two teams swapped each other for a captain? Nani couldn't help but complain, to be honest, he had been chasing Deco for a long time just now, and he had been running with Juan all over the field before, if he hadn't been young and full of physical strength, he would have been tired and paralyzed by this time.
Of course, he is not much better at this moment, and he is about to roll his eyes...... Although the big guys knew that he was playing tricks at this time, they still unconsciously cast sympathetic glances at him.
The two big brothers in the team are so rough!
"yes, change the captain and see how it goes...... Deco, the little vest is taken off to Figo, and I want to see if it will change this way. ”
Scolari said with a smile, his eyes fixed on Juan.
At first, Juan was a little puzzled, but soon, looking into Scolari's eyes, he smiled and gave him a thumbs up: "Okay." ”
Obviously, Juan also got what he meant - the midfield configuration of his team is very high, and since it is like this, it will be seen what kind of scene it will be.
The two teams changed captains and the game started again, with Deco on opposite sides and Figo on their side.
Originally, the players of the Figo team switched camps and found that if there was one person in the midfield, even the world would be much easier!
Of course, this is not to say that Figo cannot sit in midfield, but he and Deco are completely two types of players, and Figo is biased towards the winger position, in fact, he focuses on attack, and his ability to organise the whole team is not so good in comparison.
…… In such a contrast, the players on the opposite side looked at Figo with the wrong eyes.
Figo didn't know why the other side was looking at him like this, he just turned his head to look at Juan, raised an eyebrow and asked Scolari on the side of the court: "Coach, is this unfair?" ”
"What?" Scolari was stunned.
"I mean......" Figo was about to continue, but he felt a cool air creeping up his spine behind him, spurring him to be clever.
He turned his head to see that Juan was smiling at him, and that smile looked so sunny, but Figo immediately withdrew his gaze after a little look at him, and said to Scolari, "No coach." ”
"Okay, let's start again." Scolari chuckled, "Coin toss again?" ”
"No, let's start first." Deco suddenly spoke, and when everyone looked over, the Portuguese midfielder smiled, "Actually, I'm a little pity...... If only Rui had been here today. ”
When he said Rui, of course, he was referring to Rui Costa, who was the real midfield maestro of Portugal, and he used to control Portugal's midfield until Euro 04 when Rui Costa withdrew from the national team, and the control was replaced by Deco.
Juan smiled at Deco: "Don't worry, I won't let you down...... At least in the first half, I didn't let you down, did I? ”
Deco smiled back and said no more.
Scolari looked at the two of them, and then nodded: "Okay, then Figo's side will start first......"
At the end of the game, Figo won by a narrow goal.
Deco stopped Juan from outside the box at all costs, completely denied him to touch the ball, and finally equalised with a goal, but Juan soon found the opportunity to send the ball to Figo's feet with a through ball to allow the Portuguese captain to pull the score.
After the match, Juan smiled and grabbed Deco and looked him in the eye: "Is there anything you want to say to me?" ”
