Chapter 41: The Great Formation of Turtle Shells
The Oxford Holiday Street Team was able to enter the second half with a score of 1:1, and it can be said that the result was still good, and the players did not look depressed, and they all gritted their teeth secretly, looking forward to the second half of the restart.
At half-time, in the dressing room of the Oxford Holiday Street team, Coach Baker had a rare smile and actually didn't have to cry much to look good.
Mr. Baker said firmly: "The current half-court personnel need to be adjusted, but there are those who need to be replaced?" ”
No one squeaked, didn't think about it.
Mr. Baker then said: "Well, if there is no physical problem, in the second half, adjust it, George, you play midfield, pay attention to defense, Dragon, you play forward, Smit, pull the side." ”
What do you mean? didn't make substitutions, and even drove the main striker George to the midfield to defend, Smit played the winger position of the second as much as possible, and used the second as a striker, what tactics at this time.
Coach Baker is not a coach hired by the school, and he has the demeanor of a teacher who teaches and solves doubts, and explained in detail: "George, let you come back to defend, that's because the single back is not good, and the pressure on the back line is too great." Smit is weak in the midfield, and it is useless for you to be in front, but your speed and body are not as good as Qin Long. II is in front, although the pressure of the middle defense is high and the space is small, but the counterattack is closer to the opponent's door, and the distance of the counterattack is reduced, and the time required is correspondingly reduced. Of course, Qin Long is left alone in front, not that you don't need to defend, in fact, in the second half of the game, the first line of defense is you, you have to defend through guò, run and counterattack, and suppress the defensive line of the Podik Town team. As soon as you get your chance, Smit, you rush forward from the wing. ”
With such an adjustment, the team of the second is equal to one more person in the midfield, and the formation has become 451, if the second comes back to defend, it will be 460, a typical turtle shell formation.
As a pseudo-fan, I really don't like this way of playing, such a turtle shell formation, and II is the head in front of me, which is really speechless. But now that people are under the roof, they have to bow their heads, who called them their team a lot worse than their Podic Town team's competitive strength level?
When the break time came, Mr. Baker also told the players again: "When everyone is playing, be smart when you play football, don't entangle with the opponent, don't fight with them, compare speed and skill with the opponent, and if you can't pass the ball to the person with strong confrontation to stabilize it, and resist the opponent's fierce three-board axe." ”
The Podick Town team may really be just a three-board axe, and no one was changed after the start of the second half, and it is estimated that the face of their head coach in the locker room must not be good-looking, shameful, and the amateur student youth team was tied 1:1. In fact, logically speaking, the warm-up game is to adjust the state of the players in the new season, you don't change anyone, you don't let the rest of the team play, what can your head coach find? It is estimated that the head coach of the Podick Town team is also dizzy.
The second half of the game begins.
The first half of the Oxford Holiday Street Team game was still in accordance with the rules, and there are still traces to follow. Whether it's offensive or defensive, Podick Town is very easy to press.
But after the start of the second half, the Oxford Holiday Street Team's style of play changed a lot, which made the Podik Town team start to be a little confused, no offense, that's it, after all, your strength is not good, you can't organize the attack, a bunch of players in the Podik Town team in the first half know.
But what about defense? What is this called organizing defense, the four defenders of the back line are cowering near the penalty area, there is no problem with this, and the law can still be seen. But it's not the case in the midfield, six people, a group of three, a group of two attacking everywhere like a mad dog, crazy destruction, a look that I can't organize an attack, and I won't let you play the organization attack, like a person is going to die, and he must pull a cushion back.
It is easier to destroy than to build, the audience is depressed, their own team can not organize an effective attack, and the scene is not as good as the first half. The fans on the field began to get impatient, and shouted in unison: "Podick Town Team - come on!" Podick Town – Come on! ”
Coach Baker saw that the lineup adjustment was effective, and he began to shout from the sidelines: "David, protect the ball, watch the pass in the open place, think more." , steady, pull away, pull away, use the width of the court, expand the passing space, the defense does not necessarily rely on a lot of people, it is useless to squeeze together. Make more use of the wings, use the side to attack, force the opponent to defend, dragon, offense is also a kind of defense. George, run more, Smit, run open, pass more, you're in a midfield position, not a striker. Well, it's still a draw, come on! ”
The head coach of the Podick Town team is still very level, and he dismisses Mr. Baker's shouting, thinking in his heart, you midfielders will definitely not be able to organize their own attack, and second, do you still have the body to play these 45 minutes? So he expressed his own save zài, waving his hand to signal the players of the Podick Town team to step up the attack.
Strengthen the offensive, that's not an easy task either. The Oxford Holiday Street Team now has a stand-up George in midfield, who is not fast but not afraid to rush. George is in the midfield, he doesn't carry the ball, he catches the ball, passes the ball, and makes a stop. If the ball is in the hands of the Podick Town players, they rush past the interception, and the tall and muscular figure is like a-stirring stick in the midfield, making people turn their backs and causing the referee's whistle to blow constantly, but it also sets up a barrier for the Oxford Holiday Street team's midfield defense.
Pretty! George relied on his tall man to clear the ball with a big foot and accidentally kicked the ball to Smit on the wing. George usually can't kick such a pass when no one is defending, and the ball falls directly in front of Smit two or three meters away, Smit hurriedly rushes forward with the ball, and the distance of more than ten meters is quickly swallowed. Smit looked up and saw that the opposing player was waiting for him, and there was really no chance to dribble the ball again, so he crossed to II.
After receiving the ball, Ni rushed straight through the middle with the ball, attracting a flood of Podick Town defenders to concentrate towards the middle. Podick Town's defensive midfielder No. 8 stepped forward to intercept and had a two-man attack with his right midfielder, who collided sideways with the right midfielder.
II put his shoulder on the side and knocked him away, and II saw that it was impossible to break through in the middle, and then made a pass like the right side, attracting the attention of the two, but he dialed the ball to David who came to the left side, and he went to the left bottom line, which was the territory of No. 6.
Originally, No. 6 was going to intercept David, but when he saw that the second was at the bottom, his attention was all focused on the second.
David catches the ball and pushes it to II with his footwork. The ball was passed a little small, Nishi had to stop, catch the ball, and the number 6 came up to harass and jammed Nishi's inside cut and cross route. The second took the ball with him, and took the initiative to approach No. 6, and as soon as the sixth retreated, knowing that he couldn't hit the second, he was stuck in the position and blocked the offensive route.
The second saw that this was not good, the opponent's backfield was about to return to position, and suddenly took a step to the middle, and No. 6 followed to the middle of the stuck position, but the second stabbed the ball forward from the position that No. 6 gave up, and then took a big step, knocked away No. 6, and kicked a football, the ball rolled towards the bottom line at a rapid pace, No. 6 looked bad, and quickly chased towards the ball, two lanes, one blue and one white, one inside and one outside the figure quickly rushed towards the bottom line, and the speed of the two people was really similar at the moment of starting.
But the second is the attacking player, occupying the first hand, the second chases the ball first, stepped on it, and does not move, and the number 6 can't hit the second. The second repeated the same trick, pouted his butt, hit No. 6, and then turned around and rushed along the bottom line towards the restricted area. At this time, the central defender of the Podick Town team came to this side, and there was a vacancy in the penalty area, and the second raised his foot to pick up a pass, and George, who had already run the opponent's penalty area, relied on another defender and rushed to the top strongly, but the angle was too good, and he hit the crossbar directly, and with a bang, he turned back into the field.
II paid attention to the leak when George shot, and it was really George's first goal that went off the line, and the image for II was too profound. Sure enough, God paid off, and the football that bounced back was waiting for the second, and with a sweep, the ball grazed the post and flew into the net.
This was the first time in this game that the team attacked in a multi-player cooperative routine, and everyone was very happy, and the people who were only close to each other began to jump up and hit each other with their chests, and saluted with their chests, their faces were hideous, and they opened their mouths to laugh.
Originally, the second was going to play tricks on David and wanted to press him to the ground, but David was so smart that after seeing the second and George hitting his chest, he looked at him with his eyes, and when he saw that his expression was wrong, he turned around and ran, ran out of the field, and went to Coach Baker to celebrate. I saw him hugging Coach Baker and not letting go, but II had never seen David and Coach Baker so affectionate.
The second had to look back and congratulate the excited George, who shouted that most of the credit for the goal went to him.
The goal was a big disgrace for the Podick Town team, but their attack was still unorganised, and the players on the streets of Oxford Holiday took advantage of the pride of the goal to run all over the field. For a time, the turtle shell formation of the Oxford holiday street team actually launched wave after wave of attack**.
As soon as he saw that there was another chance to attack, he received George's pass, quickly dribbled forward, attracted the opposing defender, and as soon as he saw that the opponent's personnel were ready, he passed the ball to the side. Smit received the ball on the wing, had no chance, and then crossed the second.
II suddenly rushed sideways with the ball to the right side, deceived the opponent's central defender to the side, and then knocked the ball back to George, George passed the ball to David, David saw II rushing to the front, so he made a long pass with big feet, II received the ball and cut inside, the central defender of the Podick Town team rushed over, and saw that II wanted to pass him, a sliding tackle, II jumped, but the ball was lost.
In the midfield, Smit finally got up and tangled with the opposing player, pushing and pulling, George arrived, and a pinch shot stabbed the ball to the side.
The Podick players were raising their hands in the midfield, shouting at the referee: "Foul, they fouled." "The referee didn't pay attention to him at all, and he must have thought to himself, this is not a dangerous move, are they student players, or are they friendly matches, are you really embarrassed to wait for a foul?
The ball that George had destroyed stopped on the grass on the right, motionless, as if he was laughing.
Both II and Six rushed towards the ball, seeing that No. 6 grabbed the ball first, II quickly stuck the position, and then bullied up and forced the opponent to pass the ball, II stretched his long legs, and the ball hit his toes and rushed towards the sky.
However, no one is good for a thousand days, no flower is good for a hundred days, and the members of the Oxford Holiday Street Team are not all like the second, who can keep running all over the field, and the physical fitness begins to alarm unconsciously.
