Chapter 62: Run, Rico

Ricardo is now at the top of his national level, while he is defended by experienced continental midfielder Wanpeta.

If Wanpeta doesn't pay enough attention to him, maybe he can do magic once or twice, but when Wanpeta pays attention to him, it is difficult for Licardo to break through the opponent's defense, and even under Wanpeta's marking and interference, it is difficult for Licardo to get the ball.

The commentator also noticed this: "Youngster Ricardo looked embarrassed under Wanpeta's defense. He dropped back to catch the ball, didn't have a chance to turn, tried to get rid of it, didn't get past it, fortunately didn't concede the ball, he passed it back to Ricardinho. São Paulo's attack was thwarted every time it hit Junior Ricardo. ”

São Paulo's midfield maestro has consciously increased the number of shots he has given to Kaka, but Kaka's side is also being defended by Fabricio and Moreno.

Directly to Fabiano? Fabiano was tangled with two of the opposing team's tall centre-backs.

Sao Paulo's front court lost the ball point.

Ricardinho could only try to link up with the other two midfielders, Baptista and Alessandro, to slowly move the ball up front.

Baptista has some attacking ability, and according to the trajectory, he will move to Sevilla next year and shine in La Liga, being the midfielder with the most goals in La Liga.

But at this time, Baptista is still relatively young, his attacking attributes have not yet been fully developed, and he is a little frizzy when he takes the ball on the field.

As for Alessandro, it is a pure midfielder, and his strength is worse than Ricardinho and Baptista, whether it is defensive ability, or organization, ball handling, and offensive ability, he does not have the main level.

Previously, when Osvaldo played in the 4231 formation, Alejandro was always a substitute.

It's only now that he has switched to three midfielders to give Alejandro more chances to play.

How to break the game? Osvaldo frowned deeply off the pitch, and Ricardo and Kaka on the pitch were also in trouble.

……

"It seems that he is not very good, Osvaldo still has high hopes for him, and it is obviously a bad move to formulate tactics with him as the core." In the VIP seat, Leko whispered. The person who spoke was, of course, the president of the club in São Paulo, Goviah.

Gao Wei'a didn't make a sound, and his calm face made it impossible to see what was going on in his heart.

Leco took it when he saw it, and didn't add oil and vinegar. The signing of Ricardo is not progressing well, and Gao Weia has not been able to bury him.

At this time, he said this, nothing more than to say: Ricardo is too immature and unworthy of a high salary, and there is no need to compromise with Ricardo's vampire agent.

……

Despite how much the Sao Paulo players wished that time would have slowed down and given them more time to attack, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

The Sao Paulo players returned to the dressing room exhausted, and instead of criticizing his disciples, Osvaldo comforted: "It's away and it's not unacceptable that we draw with our opponents. ”

"But," Osvaldo said, "we can't play like that in the second half. Alessandro, you take a break in the second half. ”

Alessandro was stunned and nodded gloomily. No one wants to leave the game early in such an important game, but he is also self-aware and knows that he is not playing as well as he should on the field.

"Rico, you move a little bit, get ready to play in the second half, play on the right wing. Kaka, you go back to the middle, little Ricardo, you go to the left, but don't hold on to the wing, often cut inside, and seek cooperation with Kaka. Ricardinho, you cut forward a lot, you have to support Kaka, you have to make sure he has a ball point next to him. ”

All the generals nodded in understanding. Osvaldo was writing and drawing on the tactical board again, drawing a road map full of running routes, which made people dizzy to watch.

"Do you get it?" Finally, Osvaldo asked.

Of course, everyone nodded their heads, so as not to be even more dizzy by Osvaldo's thoughts.

"Then let's get out of the game."

Osvaldo's change of formation had a good effect for a while, and Corinthians goalkeeper Doni, who had been idle in the first half, also suffered several real threats.

Kaka returned to the middle like a dragon entering the sea, stirring up the rumors of Corinthians' central defense.

And Licardo's frequent inward cuts also gave Kaka a comfortable point to the ball, and the two played several exquisite cooperations.

Wanpeta had to defend Ricardo, fill in for Fabricio, and beware of Ricardinho's insertion, and was a little scrambling for a while.

In the 57th minute, Ricardo received a pass from Kaka on the left near the touchline, he slowly took two steps to protect the ball, and when Wanpeta came up to press, he flicked the ball to the side and used his speed to outpace Wanpeta by half a position.

At this point, Ricardo did not continue to dribble the ball, and with Wanpeta's experience, it was difficult to completely get past him.

He glanced up, suddenly lifted his leg and slammed it into the lower part of the ball. The ball flew high and almost the entire stadium before landing exactly in front of Rico.

At this time, because the center of gravity was attracted by Ricardo's side, Kaka ran to the left to meet Ricardo, and Fabricio also followed, resulting in an emptiness on the left side of Corinthians.

Rico stops the ball! He is characterized by fast speed and good technique, but poor physical confrontation ability, average shooting skills, average running, and not very good feeling in front of goal. If you put him in the box, he will really be overwhelmed by the opponent's tall defenders.

But at this point, he is on the wing, and there is an open area in front of him, so he can take advantage of his speed!

Rico lowered his head and strode the ball, and suddenly increased his speed!

Corinthians' left-back Moreno posted up.

Rico had been watching the ball for the first half, and he knew that his opponent was slow, so he didn't pause and went straight to another big stride, the ball crossed Moreno's left, and he himself passed Moreno's right. The ball is divided!

Moreno's speed was a cut slower than Rico's, and he didn't expect Rico to break through with this method, and he was caught off guard for a while. Rico quickly overtook the ball, and continued to go to the baseline.

During the run, he glanced up to see Fabiano standing in the opposition penalty area, pulling and pulling with Corinthians' central defender Anderson to occupy a position; Kaka was running into the box at high speed, but a Corinthians player was following in front of him.

Only Ricardo, who had left Wanpeta behind by this time, ran towards the top of the arc of the Corinthians penalty area.

Rico is keenly aware that this is an opportunity!

He caught up with the ball, adjusted a bit and crossed with his feet!

The ball did not fly into the box, but flew upside down to the top of the arc of the box, about a meter above the ground, and flew a little arc towards the unmarked Ricardo!
