Chapter 93: The Final Battle (5)
Suzuki stood on the sideline to greet the players off the pitch, patting them on the shoulder or hugging them as a sign of encouragement.
Akagi walked last, his steps were a little slow, Suzuki didn't notice it, reached out and pulled, almost pulling him to a stumbling side.
Suzuki was shocked, and immediately hugged Akagi and patted him on the back to hide Akagi's weakness.
Akagi stood firm, hugged him back, and Suzuki let go of his hand, sent him back to his seat, and then asked, "Why is your physical strength so exhausted?" ”
The burden on Akagi's shoulders was heavy, and he knew it. Maori confrontation is not good, and the protection of the center forward on the inside line is relatively weak, which is equivalent to letting Akagi carry Hanagata and Takano, which is of course very difficult. It's just that Akagi's physical strength has always been very good, and the intensity of the confrontation is high, so Suzuki didn't expect Akagi to be tired like this in just half a game.
Akagi took a sip of water and replied, "The pace is a bit fast in the first few minutes, just slow down." ”
Taking the towel from Mu Dui's hand and wiping off his sweat, Akagi said again: "The consumption of this guy in the shape of the flower will only be greater than mine, not smaller than mine." ”
Suzuki thought back for a moment and nodded. Hanagata retreated frequently at the beginning, ran in the middle to shoot three points, and then returned to the inside line to fight Akagi as the offensive core with Takano, fighting fiercely, and completely sparing physical strength to play. It seems that he has no intention of playing the whole game at all.
Thinking of this, Suzuki had a score in his heart, and said to Akagi: "You take a break in the second half, and I'll let Hotta take the top first." "After watching the performances in the previous games, Suzuki temporarily gave up on letting Maori play center. Dealing with the average team can still make him do, but in the face of Xiangyang, whether it is against the flower shape or Gao Ye, he only has to offer his ugly, or continue to play power forward, occasionally play a fast attack, outside sneak attack, pick up a rebound, just play a role.
Xiangbei and Xiangyang are extremely familiar with each other. Even if it is a substitute, what are the advantages and disadvantages, it is clear on both sides.
Hotta's height is only about the same as Nagano's, and this obvious shortcoming will definitely be targeted by Shoyang, but Hotta's strength is an advantage, and if you fight for consumption, she is a good hand. Hanagata stayed on the field and couldn't run for less than 10 minutes. If Hanagata is not present, it will definitely be Takano who plays the center, and even if Takano is down, it will be worth it.
Today, Shoyo's outside projection is very active, relying on the rebounding advantage guaranteed by the joint efforts of Hanagata and Takano, Nagano can suppress Rukawa at this time, but it can't help them.
Suzuki turned his head to discuss the rotation with Taiga, and Taiga said, "If we replace Akagi, then we won't be able to watch rebounds during this time." In this way, I think I can let Rukawa rest and rest, put Sakuragi in front, and then let Shakura go to prevent Mitsui. ”
Suzuki couldn't help but applaud when he heard Taiga's plan.
Shakura's defense is extremely good, but in front of Mitsui, the first person in the country, it has no effect. However, the game has reached the second half, Mitsui's physical strength has been exhausted a lot, and the impact of fatigue on the state will be aggravated a little bit.
This idea is the same as Suzuki's idea of using Hotta to consume flower shapes, and the temporary disadvantage is exchanged for the advantage of the late stage.
Lower Akagi, Rukawa, Upper Hotta, Shakura, Suzuki carefully calculated, and felt that there was nothing wrong.
Defensively the disadvantage is obvious, but offensively it is not.
The premise of Sakuragi's position is that he can better exert his own attack power. Although Sakuragi alone scored nearly half of the points in the first half, Suzuki believes that this has not fully brought out his offensive talent. Sakuragi has taken as many shots as Rukawa, and one of the reasons why he has twice as many points as Rukawa is that he has scored half of his threes, and the other reason is that his accuracy is much stronger than Rukawa's, and he has not missed a single shot so far.
It's not easy.
Mitsui Shou is recognized as the No. 1 college student in the country, which is certainly supported by the team's overall results, but his personal strength has also completely reached the top level in the country. Not only in attack, but also in defense, he is also among the best in the country.
As the trump card of the team, Sakuragi's name gradually began to be mentioned as Xiangbei advanced. But even after defeating Sanno and Hidetoku in a row, few people regard him as a player at the same level as Mitsui.
However, after this half, no matter what the final result is, Sakuragi's name will also resound throughout the country.
In the past two years, there are very few people who can gain the upper hand in front of Mitsui Shou, and the last one is still Eiji Zebei, who is still the king of the mountain. It has long been predicted that when Mitsui graduates, Zebei, who is in the third year, will become the next No. 1 high school student in the country. It's just that now it seems that this name may not have anything to do with Zebei. Even though Zebei's personal skills are not inferior to Sakuragi, Sakuragi's comprehensiveness is no longer beyond his expectations.
At this moment, in the stands, there is a group of people pointing at the red-haired Sakuragi.
Sakuragi felt something, and glanced up, most of them were recognized, but it was some people from Lingnan and other teams such as Hainan, Buri, and Midori who came all the way from Kanagawa to watch the game.
Kiyota shouted in a surprised tone: "I really didn't expect that this red-haired bastard could actually suppress Mitsui Shou." When you competed in the prefectural competition, it didn't seem to be so strong, right? ”
If you ask Kiyota which team he hates the most in Kanagawa, his answer will definitely not be Xiangyang, which has been pressing on Hainan in the past few years, nor will it be Lingnan, which has always been hostile to Hainan because of the coach, but definitely Xiangbei. Because there are cherry trees and rukawa in northern Xiangbei. Xiangyang has been a mortal enemy with these two since he was in middle school.
Xian Daozhang clasped his hands to his chest and said: "Mitsui Shou is not so simple, if he only has this ability, Xiangyang will collapse last year." ”
Last summer, the three of Tsuchihashi, Hiiragi and Gao were still there, and Lingnan didn't have much temper when he lost, but in the winter, the strength of the two teams was very close. It was at that time that Immortal Dao really learned the skills of Xiangyang Twin Stars.
An obviously older man in the crowd who looked like a mature coach said in a deep voice, "Kiyota, you have to work harder." Now it's not just Sakuragi, I think even Rukawa's level is clearly above yours. If you don't practice well, I'm afraid you'll be crushed by them for the past three years. ”
Qingtian's face was bitter, and he was powerless to refute, so he had to say, "Yes, captain." Then he exclaimed, "I understand this, but this height is natural." Why do you say that this red-haired monkey has grown so tall, instead of playing the inside line, he wants to play the guard to bully us! It's amazing to grow taller! ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Huang Se smiled, Kemei and Shiji were related, but Nanxiang shouted without fear: "If he dares to come to the inside line, see if I don't beat him up!" ”
Nanxiang, who was making a lot of nonsense, was immediately suppressed, and Dai Ming chiseled him to squat on the ground with his head in his hands, and then said: "You first grow taller than him before saying this!" ”
Lingnan's next captain, Miyagi, didn't look at Sakuragi, but looked at Xiangyang's bench with complicated eyes, and said slowly: "Xiangbei wants to replace Xiangyang, and the biggest enemy is not these people on the field, but Coach Anzai off the field. ”
Mu echoed: "What Miyagi said is right, but I think that Xiangbei is not much worse than Mr. Anzai in terms of coaching." ”
Although Mu is a player from Hainan, he was brought by Suzuki in the Autumn Country Body, and he knows that Suzuki's targeted tactics are very unusual.
Yuzhu said at this time: "Attention, the second half is about to begin." There were people on both sides. ”
