Chapter 107: Griezmann's Chance
"What's going on?!" The central defender shouted.
Seeing the huge gap around the top of the arc, several defenders were dumbfounded.
Truth be told, Levante had studied Real Sociedad's footage before the game. Griezmann up front is very dexterous and has excellent footwork; Off, fast, good at breaking through. That's Presa's conclusion, and it's the unanimous opinion of all the defensive players.
I thought that the little dragon ball in this level was high, and the breakthrough plus shot was not running. Because it is still separated from the back line, Guan Xiaolong does not have an ideal passing point in front of and on the side.
Defenders, regret it! I don't have eyes in the back of my head, but I have ears!
Oh, ears in the head, hehe, how do you take classes? Didn't you bring your ears?
Before Guan Xiaolong rushed forward, he aimed at Prieto and he crossed the running position. And Prieto was surprised to find that Guan Xiaolong actually attracted most of the defense. He improvised and shouted, "!! ”
This is a code, only Xiaolong understands it. Fuck, you sister!
Guan Xiaolong's heel knocked down, and there was a large gap in front of Prieto's eyes, and the strength given by this ball was just right!
"Bang!"
Prieto didn't hesitate and shot angrily. The defender only felt a flash of white light, and his heart was already half cold.
The ball flew into the net, leaving the goalkeeper looking back in the air and the jubilation of the home fans behind the goal.
"! Grass! What a boost! ”
"It's so beautiful! Mader, worthy of the captain! ”
“Oh Yeah! is ahead again, and I can see Lao Tzu's heart beating! ”
The scene burst into applause, singing, and louder shouts and cheers.
The Levante player looked at the goal with a look of astonishment, then turned to chagrin.
The captain scored the lead, and it doesn't get any more enjoyable than that. Prieto's long-range shot shows his skills, but everyone will not ignore Guan Xiaolong's contribution. Without his breakthrough containment, Prieto would not have had such a good opportunity.
"Guan this kid, it's really a surprise at all times!" The teaching assistant said.
Lasarte was both happy and relieved. I watched his video myself and agreed to Guzmán's suggestion. After returning to the team, he also entered the first-line list within a short period of time during the assessment period. His outstanding performance finally lived up to his trust.
Guan Xiaolong was picked up by Prieto, and everyone rushed to the two of them to celebrate the moment of leadership.
Presa gestured to the disciples and motioned for them to press! With such a crucial game, you can't just admit defeat. We still have the strength to attack, and it's still too early for the game to end!
But he was so excited that within twenty seconds of his words, the referee had already blown the whistle for the end of the first half.
It's a bit embarrassing, and it feels like Presa lost in a hurry. He had no choice but to force his composure and return to the locker room with a blank face.
At halftime, Lasarte did not make a special explanation, but hoped that the connection between the midfield and the backfield should be paid attention to to ensure the stability of the defense.
Prieto and Ansotegui are good friends, and they each lead the command role in the central midfield, and they work together naturally. Lassalle's implication was to ask the other players not to desert.
Eslutondo was most depressed, and after an examination by the team doctor, he said that his ankle injury was serious and that he had to go to the hospital for further examination. He is expected to miss a month, but this is a conservative estimate, as he cannot give a precise answer to the ligament injury.
Hearing the news, Esluton felt faint and dark and couldn't help but feel sad. It's the end of March, and it's okay if you're injured for a month. If the ligament is also in serious condition, it really takes two or three months, then your position is really dangerous.
Bergara was originally a good manager, much like Ilia Ramendi. However, unlike Ilia Ramendi's dexterity, Bergara is stronger and has a stronger style of play.
It's just that the early Bergara was too lazy and unwilling to defend, which is why Lasart has never used him. In the 352 lineup, defensive pressure is best addressed in midfield. Real Sociedad already have a deft midfielder like Illah Ramendi, so Lasart will definitely need a defensive stalwart to keep him safe in the middle. In this way, supplemented by a player like Prieto who has both offense and defense, the midfielder can attack and defend, advance and retreat.
Bergara has obviously figured it out during this time, worked defense, and with his own quality and ball quotient, he will soon be able to take on this position.
After playing in the league to this extent, Eslutondo is probably also in a declining form, and now he is injured again, and Belgara's chance has come!
On Levante's side, the coach is a chatter.
While strengthening the midfield pressing, it is also required to strengthen the breakthrough on the side. Then he added another mouthful, asking the joint defense Guan Xiaolong, not to let him hold the ball, and to foul if necessary.
The players were also unhappy, and the pre-game plan was to at least draw against Real Sociedad, but now the situation on the field is not good, and the players are also bitter.
Unlike the last meeting, Real Sociedad seem to be more difficult to deal with this time. There is one more Guan Xiaolong, I haven't heard of this guy before, why did he become stronger?
Hehe, Guan Xiaolong wants to hear Presa's tactical requirements, and he can't be beautiful in his heart? As a man who is about to conquer the lake football world, don't you have a hard deal?
At the beginning of the second half, Guan Xiaolong was really "locked up". Levante arranged a special person to mark the defense, and there was a joint defense area in the midfield, just to limit Guan Xiaolong.
Indeed, Guan Xiaolong's performance in the first half was relatively good. So much so that his good friend Griezmann disappeared for a little time.
Before Guan Xiaolong, Griezmann was a top player in Real Sociedad's academy and a future star of the social team. In fact, he did well in the first half, and there were a few dangerous shots on goal.
Seeing Guan Xiaolong being treated so specially, Griezmann smiled. He is a smart person, he knows that Guan Xiaolong's space has become smaller, and his own space has become larger.
Also aware of this is Elijah Ramendi. After a few waves of attacks, Xiao Dizi wanted to make a clever pass to Griezmann several times. But the opportunity was not so good, and he didn't pass it.
Finally, after Levante's attack ended, the Real Sociedad army pressed the border and came to Levante's half.
Guan Xiaolong wouldn't give up so quickly, even if he was watched by at least two people, he still swayed from side to side, pulling Levante's defense.
Guan Xiaolong remembered that he lost the side quest of the marathon, presumably it would be a super physical endurance gift pack skill, right? It's a pity that I couldn't complete the task. If that one works out, then I can now the defender on the opposite side. If you don't do anything, I'll run with you!
Ilya Ramendi once again penetrated the hole in the defence and sent a through ball behind the defender.
This time, it was Griezmann who started!
Guan Xiaolong knew that he would definitely not be able to touch the ball, so he deliberately did not stand with Griezmann, and then kept running back and forth, tired enough.
But in doing so, Griezmann was given space. For Real Sociedad, who blossomed on multiple points, Levante's defensive tactics were wrong.
Although there are also people who specialize in guarding Griezmann, how can a small grid be guarded by one person?
With a slight sideways, he shook off the opponent who was following the defense. Ilia Ramendi's pass was so precise that the fans in attendance were amazed.
Griezmann interspersed in place, did not stop the ball, and shot directly with a strong kick!
A couple of chances were wasted in this game, which was unacceptable to the self-respecting Griezmann. So this time, he spotted the goalkeeper's position and slotted the ball into the net.
Three to one! Real Sociedad at home, leading Levante 3-1!
