Chapter 15: The First Battle (I)
Lu Heng, who had never been to the stadium to watch the game, was a little excited at this time, but he was not very knowledgeable about the situation on the field, so Chen Lin, who was close to the front row, asked, "Chenzi, do you think we have a chance of winning today?" ”
Chen Lin smiled and didn't speak, he couldn't help but make Lu Heng scratch his ears and cheeks a little, and he asked the old man on the side, Colsi. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I think if you can get a quick advantage in the opening game, then there will be a lot of hope for the team to win; Otherwise, then the team is likely to be defeated. ”
"Why?"
"The new young players recruited by our club are indeed full of potential, although the head coach of the three lines, Mr. Tsoko, has also arranged some experienced veterans to sit in the team, but the lack of experience of most of the young players is indeed an irreparable defect, which will make them very good at playing with the wind, but once they are in trouble on the field, they will become very impatient, and the more impatient they are, the less points they will score, and thus enter a vicious circle." The old man was doing analysis on the side.
Today's starting lineup for Prato is: On the forward line, Yang Chen and Barcelino, Prato's top scorer last season, formed a partner;
In the midfield, Veron and Gianni Keda started as a central midfield partner, Gianni Keda is good at interception, Veron is good at passing, the combination of the two is both rigid and soft, and the Argentine will serve as the playmaker on the field; Doni is one of the four midfielders on the right and will play as a right midfielder in the starting line-up; The left midfielder is a defensive midfielder Padeira, who has been playing in a midfield position last season, but it seems that Tsoko is ready to let him play on the left side this season;
In the backline, from left to right: Pesoto, Materazzi, the team's vice-captain, last season's main central defender Corvesi, and the team's captain Piertini; In terms of goalkeepers, Toldo firmly occupied the starting position with his excellent performance in the warm-up game.
As can be seen from the starting list, this is already the strongest lineup that Tsoko can come up with, and it seems that he also wants to get off to a good start in the first game in front of the new boss.
As for Vasto's lineup, it is very average, and Chen Lin can't even find a player with a PA value of more than 110. But after all, it is a team that has been relegated from the C1 League, as the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the CA ability value of the Vasto players is relatively average, basically around 80-90, which is already a strong team in the C2 League. Like the Prato team, Corvesi, Padeira, and Barcelona also have a CA value of just over 80.
The captains of both sides guessed the coin, Vasto won the ball first, and then with the referee's whistle, the game officially began.
Vasto didn't rush to attack after kick-off, the ball kept falling between the players in the midfield and back, mobilizing the Prato defence and looking for a way to attack.
However, the Prato team, which is dominated by young players, has a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers, and pounced at the beginning of the game. The abundance of fitness after a summer break made them very aggressive in pressing, which scared the experienced Vasto team.
In the 13th minute of the game, the Vasto team attacked, but the pass was intercepted by Gianni Keda halfway, Doni received the ball grabbed by Gianni Keda, turned around and buckled a Vasto player who grabbed up, did not make extra moves, and passed the ball directly to Veron, who had just advanced to the center circle.
After receiving the ball, Veron pushed forward directly, and after attracting the attention of two opposing players, a 30-meter-long long-lying pass penetrated the defense of the Vasto team, and Yang Chen, who did not perform well in the warm-up game, suddenly ran back at this time, and appeared behind the Vasto team's defense like a ghost. As long as you receive the ball and break in, you will face the goalkeeper of the Vasto team alone.
However, because he was not familiar with Veron's passing strength, Yang Chen stopped the ball and was kicked out of the sideline by the defenders of the Vasto team who were in place. Yang Chen hurriedly raised his hand to Belon, passing a good ball, it was his own problem.
In the 20th minute, Yang Chen received Doni's through ball in the space outside the penalty area, and there was only one defender around to defend, but he leaned behind him, he immediately turned and volleyed, and the ball went straight to the upper right corner of the goal, and the scene resounded like a wave-like cheer, but the ball was slightly off, startling the goalkeeper of the Vasto team in a cold sweat. Yang Chen couldn't help but hide his face with his hands, he missed another must-score goal.
After being arranged as the core of the attack by Cuoko, Yang Chen did have a lot more opportunities, and his running in the front court was also very active. Chen Lin could see that he was working very hard, but his small skills did have problems and frequently wasted the team's opportunities.
However, Yang Chen's efforts did make the scene look very advantageous for Prato, and it seemed that the goal was only a little bit short. However, there was a lot of noise in front of the Vasto team, and their head coach still stood calmly on the sidelines, just pressing down on their players and signaling to regain the formation.
Sure enough, when almost all of the Vasto players withdrew to their own half, the Prato team's offensive could not be played. The small space was crowded with people, and the head coach of Varess did not regard himself as a team from the high-level league at all, and even played a turtle defense, which made Yang Chen's speed unable to play at all, and after receiving the ball, he could only shoot hastily under the bag of several defenders, completely exposing his shortcomings in shooting.
Chen Lin's face was pale, but he didn't expect that a head coach of the Vares team who had barely heard of it would only take twenty minutes to see through Yang Chen's strengths and weaknesses, which gave Chen Lin a new understanding of professional football. Now, however, he is more worried that Prato's young players will be impatient because they have been unable to play for a long time.
After frequently backing his feet in the midfield and slowing down the rhythm further, he ran for more than 20 minutes in a row, and the physical fitness of the Prato team also decreased a little, and the pressing of Vasto was not so tight, and for a while, it was difficult for Prato to break the ball from the feet of Vasto players.
However, in fact, in the face of the Vasto team, which was obviously going to play defensive counter-attacking tactics, the players began to be impatient, and the overall formation gradually moved forward with the intention of competing with Vasto for the ball, but did not want to expose more holes in their rear......
In the 48th minute of stoppage time, after running half the pitch, Prato's players were somewhat less fit, and more importantly, the rhythm of the game was tormenting their nerves, and they were eager to go to the dressing room to see if the manager could help them open up the situation. However, just when their nerves were a little relaxed, the left-back of the Vasto team who stepped forward to assist and the midfielder who pulled to the side completed a series of one-two crosses, and the Vasto team center forward followed up with a header under the unguarded, and the ball smashed on the crossbar and bounced towards the goal, and the audience resounded with an exclamation......
