Chapter 137: Pre-season warm-up

Lasarte's ideas are good, and his tactics are very much in line with the reality of Real Sociedad. But as soon as this set of tactics is arranged, there are some people below who are unwilling.

The biggest complainer is right winger Estrada. He didn't feel the need to curl up like this and remove both sides. Moreover, it is a waste to put three midfielders in the middle, and the team will be short of troops when counterattacking.

Left winger Salpong naturally chimed in, and he was also brought off. The Sociedad team rotated a lot of people in the midfield last year, and Sarpong and Guan Xiaolong actually took the position at that time.

To put it mildly, this is due to the injury of Diego Rivas, which has made Lasarte make a significant adjustment to the formation.

Now under the manager's conservative tactics, it is natural to reduce the strength of the two wings. Ilya Ramendi has strong organizational and adaptation skills, Guan Xiaolong can break through, and his overall ability is better than that of Salpong and Estrada. Lassalle had no choice but to take out Sarpon and Estrada.

Regarding the problem of the lineup, the dissatisfaction is not limited to the two buddies on the wing. Eslutondo, who was injured at the end of last season, is now almost recovering, but it is no longer a problem. Bergara's excellent performance on the defensive end has led Lasarte to have high hopes for him.

And the other two midfielders, Prieto is a Basque tough guy and a midfield guarantee for Real Sociedad, and the coach will not touch him. Diego Rivas has excellent midfield ability and is a midfield transmitter, and his return from injury is good news for Lasarte.

Although everyone agrees with the defensive counterattack style of play, but when it is really implemented, can the players who are squeezed out of positions be happy?

There is a problem with the team, and Lasarte will naturally know about it. He was also a little hesitant, thinking about whether to switch to the more counter-attacking 4231 and free up another full-back.

Of course, he doesn't change his tactics just because the players have an opinion, and the coach is a soft guy to do that. He only thinks about the question of which squad is more suitable for the team and can help the team win, and that is the key.

The warm-up match against Sevilla came as scheduled, and even after the warm-up, 20,000 fans gathered at the Anoeta Stadium. It was Real Sociedad's first game after promotion and a warm-up match to test the team's strength.

Sevilla have been consistent in recent seasons and have been in the top six in La Liga, thanks to manager Garcia. Taror's makeover of the team.

Fazio and Dragutinovic were the backbone of the defence, while the full-backs were Cáceres and Navarro respectively, who were aggressive.

The wing composed of Perotti and Navas, one by one, the attack is very three-dimensional. Up front, Fabiano, Canu, Negredo...... This lineup, not to mention any first-class ones, is it true that it is enough for Real Sociedad to drink a pot.

"Come on! Watch out for you! ”

"No matter what the season goes? We'll always have your back! ”

The people who came to watch the game today are definitely die-hards, they don't care about the nature of the game, as long as it's a Real Sociedad game, they will support it!

Lasarte lined up a formation of 4321, and only practice can draw valuable conclusions, which is also the significance of arranging this warm-up match.

Sevilla, on the other hand, fielded the traditional 4411, which is their most common formation and the one they are best at.

Lasarte and Tarol shook hands with each other amiably before the game, and the coaches certainly didn't feel the need to play in this match.

However, fans don't think so, Sevilla FC finished fourth last season and it would be quite a morale boost to win against them. What are the fans trying to do? I wish the home team could beat Real Madrid and Barcelona, so as to provide after-dinner conversations, or there is no topic for chatting and farting, and it seems too much to always talk about losing.

The players on both sides appeared on the stage, and Guan Xiaolong drooped his face, looking unhappy.

Don't ask me why, I'll ask you, will you be happy if you work for a day and then don't pay you?

It turned out that Guan Xiaolong learned that the warm-up match was not counted in the progress of the task completion because he did not meet the requirements of the professional competition.

Well, what's the system says anyway. As a man who was unfortunate enough to be hit by ADA, I want to be kind to her...... Hey, hey, hey.

Guan Xiaolong used his extraordinary ability to adjust, so that his face was soon full of Yangguan and full of love.

After shaking hands with their opponents, the two teams returned to their respective halves and lined up to prepare for the battle.

Before the game, Lasarte took everyone to study Sevilla, and Navas on the right side is fast, and he is good at technique and dexterity, and he will be the main target of Real Sociedad today.

The referee soon blew the whistle for the game, and the game between the two sides officially began.

Sevilla had a few kicks at the back and began to look for opportunities to break through on the flanks.

Knowing the defensive formation that Real Sociedad put up today, Sevilla's players are not stupid and focus on the wings.

When it comes to possession, Sevilla are not very good at this either. In fact, their tactics are still relatively simple and efficient. Basically, it relies on the side to drive, with the penetration of the middle, so as to tear apart the opponent's defense.

But Real Sociedad is even more obscene, to be honest, they can't control the ball, and they give up the ball as soon as they come up.

Sevilla had such an opportunity, so they controlled the midfield and laid siege to Real Sociedad.

It is rumored that Navas has a sharp attack on the side, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its name.

Directly opposite him on the left side were Diego Rivas and De La Bella, and the first wave of attacks made them realize that this was La Liga level and could not be sloppy.

Navas and his team-mate collided with the wall, and then ran up to the defender to receive the pass. De la Bella was also an experienced player and he followed up in time but was thrown out of position.

Keylor Navas's pass was a little high, his team-mate in the middle didn't have a chance to shoot, and Real Sociedad's crisis was lifted.

However, in the first wave of Sevilla's attack, the problems of the Sociedad defenders were exposed, which made Lasarte very worried.

After a wave of testing, the Sevilla players found that Real Sociedad seemed to be afraid to be rigid, and everyone relaxed their minds to attack.

Three minutes later, Navas made a comeback. Today he was excited and the Sevilla attack was all based on him.

De la Bella was under a lot of pressure and also forced Illa Ramendi to keep coming back to defend at the back.

Prieto was unable to support the left wing due to pressure from the middle, and the opposition also recognized this and attacked the left side of the Sociedad team.

Keylor Navas is holding the ball again, he's getting more relaxed and breaking through as he pleases.

Left-sided defender Cáceres and midfielder Jokola are also a big threat, and their involvement has provided a lot of convenience for Navas.

In the face of the power of Sevilla's attacking group, Real Sociedad has not yet adapted for a while. In layman's terms, it is: "Why is Sevilla so strong?" ”
