322. The first battle of the group

Mkhitaryan's attitude is good, which satisfies Wensheng and makes him full of confidence in Mkhitaryan's future, Mertens is not good at organizing, but Mkhitaryan has the ability to organize, and the task is risky to press on De Bruyne alone, and eggs can't be put in one basket.

Soon the time came to the evening of Wednesday the 14th.

Crystal Palace welcomed Napoli, their first opponent in the Champions League group stage.

Napoli has steadily improved under the leadership of Mazzari in recent years, participated in the Europa League last season, and further entered the Champions League this season, but for them, the luck is really not too good, and they are in the group of death.

Last season, they didn't even have a Europa League line, and this season they have to add a Villarreal, and in the analysis of public opinion from the outside world, Napoli seems to be the "most" weakest team in the group.

Wen Sheng wanted to win this game, and he made full preparations for this game, and also learned from Ma Qiao.

For Mazzal, he also wants to win this game, he feels that Group A is not a mess, everyone has a chance, so at least the away game against Crystal Palace cannot be lost, and it is more ideal to get a point.

Speroni was still the goalkeeper, Benatia and Virgil van Dijk at centre-back, Maggio on the right, Shears at left wing-back, Melo Melo and Kevin De Bruyne in midfield, and Mertens, Klose and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang up front.

Wen Sheng's consideration of this game is to be steady, not to pursue too fast tempo, he knows that Napoli in Mazari will definitely not be so proactive in the away game, but the opponent definitely uses counterattacks as an important weapon in attack.

This group is already difficult, the team can't be too active like the league, and a little carelessness in such a game will capsize, so for the sake of caution, this game must fight for possession and positional battles.

Klose's role was crucial, so he put Jamie Vardy on the bench and then replaced Mkhitaryan with the blistering Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in order to ensure the impact of the counter-attack.

Aubameyang's team awareness needs to be improved, and he still needs to explore the role positioning in the team, but fortunately, he has a positive attitude, and his awareness of returning to defense in training is relatively sufficient, and he is willing to run back.

Mazzari is discharged his own 343 as usual, and he has a hundred thousand reasons not to want to let go of Maggio, but in Italy, especially in Naples, the manager is also a fart when he speaks, and De Laurentiis will listen to him?!

After Maggio left, De Lao brought in versatile midfielder Zemaili from Parma, who was used in the right midfield position.

As the first Champions League match in the team's history, Crystal Palace fans were very enthusiastic about the game, with hundreds of fans rushing to the training ground to cheer on the players during the public training session two days ago.

Wen Sheng and Mazzali shook hands and said goodbye, Mazzal, the head coach, is also quite good in his belly, but unfortunately he collapsed after Inter Milan, the success of the head coach needs a lot of factors, just the tactics are not enough, team management is also a super big knowledge, essential, if the team is not well managed, don't want to succeed at all.

Mazzari couldn't take care of that mess at Inter Milan, so he could only leave the class in the dark.

After the start of the game, Napoli wanted to grab a start and speculate, but Crystal Palace obviously did not give them such a chance, and the control was very calm.

Wensheng knows the general trend of football in the future, and the ability of goalkeepers and central defenders to play the ball needs to be improved.

There is no superiority or inferiority in tactics, and the improvement of goalkeepers and centre-backs on the ball is indeed an improvement in the world of football, as they enrich the team's style of play.

Breaking the opposition's tight defense, the goalkeeper's ability to handle the ball can play a very important role.

If you want to play a counter-attacking battle, the long passing ability of the central defender and goalkeeper will play a good role.

Therefore, during Wen Sheng's time at Crystal Palace, he has always emphasized the goalkeeper's ability to play the ball, and Speroni is also willing to make some changes, not to mention that he is from the Pampas grassland, and his foot skills are there.

Napoli's high pressing did not work, but in the 3rd minute, Aubameyang's long pass over the top gave Aubameyang a chance to shoot, but the young man was a little anxious, and his mentality was unstable after taking the ball, and he chose to shoot at a small angle in the Napoli penalty area, which had a bad effect and sent the ball directly to the stands.

Wen Sheng couldn't help but shake his head.

Aubameyang's speed is indeed fast enough, but this goal is not an anti-offside, he is not a single knife, in the face of Campagnaro's defense, the young man is still a little unstable, if he can stabilize, choose to cut inside and then shoot how much better than this swallowing date to such a shot.

Aubameyang's problems are that he may be a little nervous, secondly, he is not confident in his own passing, and thirdly, he has too little experience in the game, and he is a little decisive, but he has not made the right choice.

The fans in the stands didn't care about this, and when they saw Aubameyang finish a shot, the Crystal Palace fans immediately gave him a round of applause and naked encouragement for Aubameyang.

"It was Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, a young player who just moved from Milan to Crystal Palace this summer! His shot was a bit outrageous! CCTV commentator Zhou Jin briefly introduced Aubameyang.

As a team led by Chinese and another Chinese player, China's sports station will naturally focus on this game, not to mention that Hao Junmin appeared on the bench again in this game.

As early as after the news came out, China's domestic media commentators began to hype the possibility of Hao Junmin's appearance, everyone is very optimistic, thinking that Crystal Palace, the new team in the Champions League, Wen Sheng, as the head coach of the team, is likely to take into account that Hao Junmin has playing experience in the Champions League, which is experience, and Hao Junmin will play.

As a result, I didn't expect Wensheng to use Mkhitaryan or Larsson, but to use Aubameyang, which made everyone really regretful.

"Hao Junmin doesn't have this speed!" still said a fair word to Mr. Zhang, who was Zhou Jin's partner, "The young man is running too fast!" Cannavaro Jr. can't catch up with him at all in the back! It's just a little impatient to handle the ball! ”

As the game continued, Palace began to gradually gain the upper hand, controlling the ball well and overpowering their opponents.

Mazzal's 343, the middle of the hoarding of two giants, Gargano and this summer spent 17 million euros from Udinese to bring in Inle, both players are defensive strong, running and particularly aggressive, Swiss international Inle also has a very good long-range shot.

Napoli's attacking characteristics are actually a quick counterattack after the break in the midfield, Hamsik's one-pass ability is okay, but the organizational ability is average, which means that Napoli actually have obvious flaws in the organization and control of the ball against a team like Crystal Palace, and as the game deepens, it is not surprising that they fall below the field.

"Crystal Palace is a team that can't be underestimated!" Teacher Zhang praised, "Several players in their midfield can hold the ball, De Bruyne, a young man, is actually very capable, able to organize and break through, and has a large range of activities. ”

De Bruyne was in very good form indeed, and in the 11th minute, he and Klose made a very good combination, De Bruyne burst into a cold shot from outside the box, De Sanctis had already surrendered, and it was the post that helped Napoli a lot, otherwise Crystal Palace would have taken a one-goal lead.

Mazari was very unhappy with Gargano and Inle, and he thought it was time to get started.

On the football field, if you can't stop the other party, you have to get started.

Crystal Palace played a good positional battle, and the team should use tactical fouls to delay the opponent's attack.
