Chapter 221: Perfect 352 Formation (Sixth Shift)

"Hey, Fabio,"

"Don't doubt me, just run, I'll pass the ball to your feet."

Zheng Zhi is a big guy now, Grosso is nothing.

"Hmm,"

"I will."

Grosso didn't have the slightest doubt, although he was older than Zheng Zhi, he was a real rookie, and there was still pressure in his heart! I'm afraid that my performance is too bad and I can't keep up with the team's rhythm and I'm in trouble.

In Italy, the guys who play the No. 10 position are very good, and it is impossible to play this position without ability, so Grosso naturally thinks that Zheng Zhi will also be excellent in this position......

Perhaps knowing that it was the first time for Grosso to participate in such a high-level competition, Zheng Zhi also specially encouraged.

"Don't be too anxious,"

"I'll protect you,"

'We're going to play a good game, you just have to play your own characteristics.'

"Uh......" Grosso was a little surprised.

……

However, Zheng Zhi is most worried about Shuer and Li Yin in the back, he is afraid that they will not be able to calmly hand the ball to his feet, why Schuster told him to come back as soon as possible to change roles when defending, and he is not worried about Shuer and Li Yin.

Of course, there are also Li Weifeng and Grosso's left side, and there may also be problems due to poor cooperation. And he's the only guy in the team.

In fact, everyone is quite familiar with the formation of 352, but it requires proficiency.

At the turn of the century, the 352 formation was all the rage on the football field. Among them, Roma, the champion of Serie A in 01, and Brazil, the champion of the 02 World Cup, both used the 352 (or 3412) formation like a fish in water.

To borrow a commentary from the famous teacher Han Qiaosheng: "Suddenly like a spring breeze overnight, Serie A has three popular defenders" - the "small World Cup" of the Serie A league during that period, which has led the tactical innovation of football many times. Even the Serie A field, which attaches great importance to defense, has once blown a whirlwind of three defenders!

In this system, one of the three centre-backs often plays the role of 'scavenger', while the other two centre-backs are responsible for marking people – the main task is to mark the opposition's two strikers.

The two attacking full-backs (now called wingbacks) need to be well-rounded and capable of running and being able to play and defend on the wings alone.

In the middle of the midfield, there are two midfielders + one playmaker. The two forwards up front are also clearly tasked with the task, usually one is the main goalkeeper and the other is responsible for the response.

The main points of this lineup are actually attacking full-backs, playmaking forwards (some teams use nine and a half numbers) and pure goalscorers.

Take the 98-99 season of Serie A as an example, when Inter Milan's stars were dim, Fiorentina started singing all the way, Fiorentina in these links, respectively, there were fullbacks who pressed on the attack, Costa organized in the middle, and Batistuta as a goalscorer to attack the city, although the purple lily missed the championship at the last moment because of Barty's serious injury. However, this style of play is becoming more and more popular - AC Milan, who finally managed to overtake and win the championship that season, also focused on a back three system.

Next, Roma's wings Cafu and Candela were even more ferocious in their assists, whether it was crosses, in-cuts or long-range shots. At this time, Totti also transitioned from a goalscorer to a midfielder, and although Capello failed to win the title in his first season in charge of Roma, his style of play was quite pleasant.

The following season, with the addition of Batistuta, Emerson and Samuel and other South American foreign players, Roma completed all the pieces of the puzzle in this style of play, and finally won the Serie A title - in those seasons, most of the teams in Serie A played 352 or 343, except for city rivals Lazio, who insisted on playing with a back four of Nesta, Mihajlovic, Negro and Pancarlo.

It was also the golden age of the No. 10 position, Juventus Zinedine Zidane, Purple Lily Costa, Roma Totti, Milan Boban and so on were all at home in the "Little World Cup". Cafu, Candela, Zambrotta, Pesoto, Zanetti and other versatile wide players are also beautiful.

In the next 02 World Cup, the Brazilian team easily won the championship, and the 352 (3412) style of play can be described as smooth - Carlos Cafu flew on both wings, and the front court 3R was full of firepower - because of the popularity of the "attacking fullback" style of play, some football magazines even asserted that pure wingers like Overmars are about to disappear!

Of course, the pure wingers not only did not disappear, but became more and more awesome, Messi, Ronaldo, Robben, Ribery......

But that's all for later......

Of course, for Zheng Zhi, he is also very excited. It's been a long time since I've been in this position!

Last time, it was the time when I played football in Shandong Luneng in my last life......

Itchy feet, ready to move.

Beep –

After a whistle blew and Yang Chen kicked the ball to Klose, he got Klose's return pass.

The show has finally begun......

Debingauer? Zheng Zhi even felt that Schuster didn't need to find such a vegetable team to warm up, which didn't mean much to the team.

Soon, Zheng Zhi gave Schneider a kick on the side, Schneider seemed to be holding back a momentum, after getting the ball, he broke through with the ball rarely, and got rid of the opponent with a relaxed drumble, and after looking up at the big penalty area, he immediately sent the ball in!

Yang Chen pulled back, and Klose grabbed the front, and the division of labor between the two was very clear and tacit.

Bang –

Klose jumped up and down the front post with ease, stuck his position so hard that the defenders didn't take advantage of it at all, and his head was pinpointed into the top right corner of the goal.

The ball is in!

In the Bundesliga, Klose has not yet shown a killing side, but against a Bundesliga team? His header advantage can be vividly reflected, and besides, the departure of Fjotoft also makes him feel very excited, and the pressure is much less. Can he not put this beautiful cross in there?

Belch! Grosso on the left looked confused.

It's as simple as that? Splits, crosses, goals?

He didn't realise that he was playing against a team at the level of the Bundesliga, and he was shocked to score on the first attack.

It looks like my teammates are very strong!

The pressure came to him invisibly. If you don't show some skills, you may really be despised by your new teammates.

The bravery of his new teammates quickly stimulated Grosso.

"I rub?"

"I haven't touched the ball yet, have I?"

Li Yin touched his forehead, feeling that this ball was really not real at all. Just now, Shure handed the ball to Zheng Zhi, Zheng Zhi split Schneider, and he really didn't touch the ball!

"Gotta behave well,"

"This kind of game is even more of a game to play hard, and you must not be careless."

It was a friendly match for him after all......

Everyone wants to do their best in the game.

In a game where the strength and weakness were clear, Eintracht Frankfurt had the advantage. His teammates were playing with their lives, but Zheng Zhi played quite easily, because Schneider and Grosso on both wings were very capable of rushing.

Soon, Zheng Zhi split the left side, Grosso stepped forward into place, Zheng Zhi's ball really came in time, he immediately sent an assist to Klose, and his curling cross was not of bad quality, almost hitting Klose's head.

At this time, it was Yang Chen's turn to be anxious, and he also scored, but his teammates all played side cross bombing.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhi's scalpel came.

Boccia is his favorite way......

It was easy for the team to take a 3-0 lead.

It's just those guys on the bench, a lot of people aren't very happy anymore.

Is this new 352 formation combination so powerful? Three goals scored so easily?
