Chapter 44: The Mighty Blue Eagle

The biggest feature of Italian football is that it is extremely efficient in counter-attacking. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The attacking Italian team can often find the opponent's flaws and complete efficient passes and shots with just a few passes.

After adjustment, Atalanta also took advantage of a small hole in Lazio's defense to complete the goal and occupy the initiative on the field. But as the champion captain of the World Cup team, Zov was a goalkeeper when he was a player, and he has a strong ability to read the game. Through the goal just now, he immediately realized Atalanta's intention to change the formation, so he thought about it for a while and quickly passed on his instructions.

Shortly after Atalanta's goal, Zoff made a tactical change. He called Favali over and said something, then called out to the veteran Scrossa, making a few gestures. Then, a sly smile appeared on Zoff's face, and in his opinion, his adjustment would definitely find a new hole after the change of formation in Atlanta... Will the facts develop the way Zoff thinks?

The Lazio players quickly and faithfully carried out Zoff's orders, and within a few minutes, Adrio found that Lazio's attack and defense were very different from what they had just been...

In the 29th minute, within minutes of Zoff's adjustments, Lazio had a very dangerous counter-attack.

Atalanta won the ball on the left side, Tacinati accurately passed the ball to the feet of Gantz, the attacking core, and after Gantz got the ball, he prepared to cut inside according to the usual tactics, but there was an unexpected situation: the Dutchman Winter, who would not have appeared in that position, miraculously predicted the position of Ganz's cut, and successfully and cleanly, cut off the ball at Gantz's feet!

The Dutchman has always been good at attacking and defending, and the Dutchman is definitely very good at the passing threat when counter-attacking, and Winter, as a famous midfielder and a regular in the national team, is naturally no exception. After he broke the ball, he observed the situation on the field for a while, and then kicked the ball to an open area on the left side where there was no one!

Just when everyone thought that the ball was a simple clearance, a sky blue figure was like a wild horse, with a thunderous and jingling bell, and when the ball was about to roll out of the sideline, it was controlled! This person is none other than Lazio's current top scorer, Giuseppe Signoli!

Signori's pace is quite fast, and after a while, Signori has thrown off the players who are chasing behind him more than five meters away, and now in the Atalanta half, only the central defender Paolo Montero and the right-back Poggi are left behind! Poggi spotted Signoli first, but he made almost the same mistake as Favali just now, mistakenly thinking that Signori, who was a left-footed player, was going to go down the left side again, so he only focused on the outside line, but was shaken away by the left-footed Signori with his right foot inward! Montero, as a free man, saw that the situation was not good, and immediately reacted and went up to block Signoli!

And seeing that he was the only one on the offensive end, his teammates were not fully in place, and the defenders were not fully in place, he made a bold decision! I saw that when Signori's blocking was not in place in Montero, he suddenly shot from 25 meters away from the goal, and he used his right foot!

The ball was slammed out by Signoli in the direction of the goal. The entire Atlanta audience had to hold their breath, and a small football became the focus of attention of the audience at this time. The home fans were praying that the ball would not fly into the frame of the goal, and the Lazio fans who had travelled from Rome were expecting a surprise for the little man who could sing in a size 38 shoe! Moreover, behind the goal in the direction of Lazio's attack in the first half was the stand of the visiting fans!

However, perhaps because of the large number of home crowds, their expectations have become a reality. Signori, who can play the violin with his left foot, did lack a little kung fu with his right foot, and the ball finally flew off the bottom line, only 10 cm from the top edge of the crossbar!

"Oh!" In the stands of Lazio fans, everyone looked up to the sky and sighed, regretting that Signoli had missed the opportunity, and Signoli himself was also hiding his face with his hands, and his frustration was overflowing...

However, Zoff stood up and applauded Signori's performance: "Giuseppe, well done! That's it! ”

Just when everyone thought that Signori's flash of inspiration just now was an accident, the next scene that happened made the Atlanta coaching staff walk on thin ice...

In the 36th minute, it was Atalanta who advanced to 40 meters from Lazio's goal in the positional battle, but this time it was Gascoigne who flashed!

Unlike the traditional midfielders of that era, Gascoigne not only passes the ball well, but also does not advance slowly at all, if you underestimate Gaza's breakthrough ability, then Gazza's wonder boy will definitely make you deeply understand what regret is. No, he taught the Atalanta players a good lesson.

Scrossa anticipated the Atalanta player's pass and passed the ball to Gascoigne, who was close at hand. At this time, the moment that belonged to Gascoigne came.

Seeing Gascoigne get the ball, Tacinati, who had the task of marking Gascoigne, met Gaza for the first time. But what I didn't expect was that Tachinaati, who had high hopes for Chen Fei, was like a primary school student in front of Gaza! Gascoigne flicked the ball lightly in the direction of his left foot, deceiving Tacinati's center of gravity to tilt to his right hand, but what he didn't expect was that Gascoigne actually changed the inside of his foot to the outside of his foot in mid-air, and moved the ball in the opposite direction of Tachinatti's center of gravity, and then he quickly followed up, and a ball was divided!

Gascoigne, who passed Tacchinati, faced centre-back Valentini in the next hurdle. But Gascoigne didn't take Valentini seriously at all, and just pedaled a few simple bicycles, and Valentini's center of gravity was unstable and he staggered back. Naturally, Gaza would not let go of this opportunity and directly broke through Valentini's defensive zone. At this time, Montero, who was in charge of assisting the defense, had to take on the role of tinker again, and in order to prevent Gascoigne from forming a single knife, he ignored the fact that he was in the penalty area, and flew towards Gascoigne with a fierce sliding tackle!

The experienced Gascoigne found that if he insisted on shooting, there was a chance that he would be blocked by this stunned young man, but if he didn't shoot, he would definitely not be able to hold his foot, and it was likely to be a penalty! So he didn't dodge or dodge, and pounced on Montero. Montero didn't stop and tripped Gascoigne in the box. Penalty kick! The nimble Gazza earned Lazio a penalty opportunity, while the reckless Montero had to accept a yellow spot package.

At this time, all the pressure of the whole field was gathered on the shoulders of captain Fei Long. As the team's last line of defense, he is completely helpless in the face of penalty kicks. The penalty taker from Lazio was not Signori or Gascoigne, but Dutchman Winter. I saw that he ran and kicked the ball towards Ferron's left hand side quite calmly and coherently! Unexpectedly, goalkeeper Fei Long judged the right direction this time, and also jumped hard towards his left hand, and the gloves touched the ball!

But helplessly, Winter's shooting power was too much, and Ferron was powerless to change the trajectory of the ball, and still had to accept the bitter fact of letting the ball go into the net. At 1-1, Lazio took advantage of the player's superior individual ability to equalize. The two sides are back on the same starting line, so the question is, what does Zoff's bad smile mean?

It turned out that Zoff knew very well that Lazio's players had the kind of individual ability that was superb, and his arrangement just now was to let everyone, including Scrossa, Winter, and Casiraghi, participate in the counter-attack, and after grabbing the ball, hand it over to Signoli or Gascoigne as soon as possible, so that they can use their individual ability to tear a hole in Atalanta's overall defense. Sure enough, Lazio used Gascoigne's individual ability to win the penalty and equalize...

The equalizer on the score made the confidence that the home team Atalanta had built up and down a little bit again. The super individual ability of the Lazio players is really a big problem for the Atalanta boys who are not very old on average.

However, fortunately, after Winter scored a penalty in the first half, the score was not rewritten. Both sides went into the dressing room 1-1. So, what will Chen Fei, who is waiting for the players in the locker room, say?
