Chapter 25: The Battle of Goals (Part II)
In the 31st minute of the first half, with Lama's goal, Osasuna, who was playing away, pulled one back, and the score became 2:1.
After the goal, Rama himself was a little incredulous, he looked at the goal in a daze, and after repeatedly making sure that the goal had indeed scored, he was so excited that he ran all over the field.
Tens of thousands of fans in the Calderón stands were a little dumbfounded, and anyone could see that Osasuna's attack was not too threatening in essence, but they scored in the end, which is really ...... luck It's so speechless.
The commentators at the scene were speechless, and said: "This goal is really ...... I'm very lucky. Even if Atletico captain Gabi made a mistake in the battle, Atletico Madrid's back line was still very good, and under normal circumstances, it would be tantamount to a fantasy for Rama to break through the defense by himself, but his lucky long-range shot was unexpectedly at his feet again, and then ...... There was this goal. ”
"Anyway, now the score is 2-1 and Osasuna have only one goal apart. Atletico Madrid have to get serious, and if they are not careful, if they are scored another goal, then the situation is very likely to be reversed. ”
Simeone, who had already thought that the game was won and sat back in the coach's seat, got up angrily and kicked over the mineral water bottle next to him. Admittedly, there was a lot of luck in this goal. But he was still angry, and in his opinion, Gabi should not have made such a mistake. If it weren't for the mistakes, Lama wouldn't have had a chance to shoot with his feet at all.
And then the defenders did not block in time and goalkeeper Courtois was not focused, which caused the scene of the ball being saved and then scored by Rama.
"Damn it, Gabby, how did you become the captain?"
"And Godin and Miranda, why don't you go and make up for the blocking as soon as possible!"
"Thibaud. You're acting like a bunch of dogs. Excrement! If you don't want to kick, get the hell out of here! Bastard! ”
Simeone's irascible temper was undoubtedly revealed at this moment, he scolded the team's backline over and over again, he looked at Qin Shou who was still in the front, and finally gave up.
Qin Shou's duty on the field is to be responsible for both defense and offense, so theoretically, Qin Shou also has a certain responsibility for this lost goal, who made him not come forward to force it. It was easy for Osasuna's players to pass the ball to the front court.
However, Simone also knows very well that this is the sequelae of giving Qin Shou privileges. As long as Qin Shou assists in the front court, there will inevitably be space in the backcourt. And once there is a late interception or mistake, it is difficult for the team to make up for the defense in the first place. No matter how fast Qin Shou's speed is, it is not as fast as football, he is not a magician, and he has the skill of teleportation.
Simone didn't take care of Qin Shou's emotions and didn't dare to scold him, but Qin Shou was the core of his handpicking. Let him plug in the attack is also his key request, if he really scolds Qin Shou all the time, isn't this a slap in the face?
Besides, this conceded goal must be counted. It really doesn't have much to do with Qin Shou. If he insisted on scolding Qin Shou, he was too nitpicky.
Although the sound in the stadium is very noisy, Simeone's voice is not small, it is like practicing the "lion's roar". The tyrannical yelling clearly reached the ears of the players, and the faces of several defenders turned blue and white, and the young Courtois even looked like he was about to cry. Fortunately, Godin comforted him at the right time, otherwise the young goalkeeper, who only took up after Assunsão's injury, might be in danger of being mentally unbalanced.
"Watch defensive! Don't let your opponent threaten the goal! ”
Simeone, however, didn't care so much, yelling and gesturing at the same time, signaling the team to stabilize the defense and not panic after conceding the goal, so as not to give the opponent a chance.
Simeone's thinking is very correct, many teams just concede a goal, either there will be a brief panic in their mentality, or they are in a hurry to score, rushing up to attack fiercely, but they are often taken by surprise by the opponent's counterattack.
But in fact, Simeone's concerns were somewhat unnecessary.
After the game restarted, Qin Shou did not rush to play the football to the front as before, but in the middle and back of the field, passing and cooperating with the opponent. And constantly make gestures, signaling the team to stabilize the rhythm first and not rush forward.
From this point of view, Qin Shou's performance is undoubtedly very mature and has the style of a general.
In terms of theoretical knowledge, Qin Shou has so many good teachers, Henry, Rosicky, Lehmann, etc., they all teach their own experience and understanding of the game, and in practice, in the United States and Arsenal, Qin Shou has long shouldered the core responsibility of the team, so it is quite handy to do this job.
A top-class playmaker needs to get the pace of the game.
When to attack, when to be fast, when to be slow, it all needs to be in the chest.
Although Qin Shou is not a top player today, he does not lose much in terms of ability, what he lacks is the precipitation of time.
Sometimes actual actions can be more inspiring than verbal encouragement, after losing the ball, although Qin Shou did not say anything to boost morale, but under his scheduling, the team quickly stabilized its position, and the teammates quickly passed the panic period, and the continuous transmission and cooperation made the opponent not even touch the ball at all, which also greatly improved the team's self-confidence, and everyone was firm that the opponent's goal was just an accident, and they were still full of confidence in victory.
Looking at the well-organized team, Simeone nodded, a rare smile on his face. This 12 million euros is too well spent, and it is so worry-free to have a player like Qin Shou who has an excellent overall view and a strong ability to read the game!
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Atletico Madrid didn't panic after losing the goal, under Qin Shou's scheduling, they slowed down the rhythm and quickly stabilized their position, and the continuous short pass coordination is really pleasing to the eye!"
"Hehe, I have to admit that Qin Shou is really a general! Our national team lacks such a high-level core! I'm thinking now, if the Chinese national team recruits Qin Shou, will our strength become the first class in Asia! Hey! ”
"In this paragraph just now, everyone just took Coach Zhang as a joke - even if football kings like Maradona and Pele join the Chinese team, the Chinese team is still not in Asia...... But watching Qin Shou play football is really a very happy thing. I suddenly had a renewed understanding of what number 10 meant. ”
"It's true, a real No.10 player has to take on the biggest responsibility of the team, stabilize the morale of the team in the most difficult times of the team, and improve the morale of the team. Qin Shou is doing a good job now! ”
He Ping and Director Zhang kept discussing and explaining in the studio. Perhaps in the eyes of many ordinary fans, the slowed down pace of Atletico Madrid is not as fast and direct as before, and it is not exciting enough, but in the eyes of insiders who really understand the ball, this kind of rhythm control is the real style of a general, a kind of full confidence in the chest.
This also made the two senior football commentators look forward to Qin Shou's future football path.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
It's just that the short pass doesn't move forward, this is not Atletico Madrid's style, nor Qin Shou's style.
After stabilizing the morale of the army, soon, Atletico Madrid's offensive gradually rose again.
Osasuna were lucky enough to score a goal and it stands to reason that they should be in high spirits, while Atletico Madrid should be depressed. Originally, Osasuna wanted to take advantage of the victory, and if they could score another goal, it would be even better.
But the reality is that Atletico Madrid are not in a hurry to attack after conceding the goal, and they start to make inverted passes in the middle and back of the field.
If you don't attack, then we can fight you, right?
With this in mind, Osasuna rushed to the midfield and actively pressed the home team.
But under the orderly drive of Qin Shou, Atletico Madrid's passing cooperation played well, and even for a long time, Osasuna's pressing was in vain, and he didn't even touch the edge of the football.
Osasuna's players hated it so much, what did the players of the home team think of them, was it the monkey in the usual training monkey walk?
If Qin Shou knew what Osasuna's players thought, he would definitely shout that he was wronged. The team just conceded a goal, and he naturally wanted to stabilize the morale of the army, and this kind of passing is the best way to stabilize the rhythm.
Besides, it's not us asking you to come forward and force it, so why don't you blame me for not being able to grab the ball?
Regardless, Atletico's passing combination turned the opponent around. And it was in this seemingly unhurried rhythm that Qin Shou once again brewed a killing opportunity.
After receiving the pass from his teammates again, Qin Shou took advantage of the situation to make a move of raising his foot to pass the ball, and the Osasuna player who came to rush was really fooled, but Qin Shou's raised right foot was gently put down, and the ball was flicked on the outside of his right foot, and he easily shook the pressing player.
Immediately took the ball forward again, and Qin Shou rushed through the midfield with the ball.
Qin Shou sounded the clarion call for Atletico Madrid's counterattack!
After Qin Shou successfully broke through, several offensive players sprinted forward almost at the same time. This routine has been practiced countless times in training, and Simeone demanded that the players must keep an eye on Qin Shou's movements during the game, and as long as Qin Shou rushes forward with the ball, then they must follow up to give support.
And now, Qin Shou has moved, which means that Atletico Madrid's attack has also begun! (To be continued.) )
