Chapter 58: It's not your turn yet

'It's not your turn to play yet, you'll have time to perform, Chusovikingstic. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Bilic said lightly. He didn't seem to care about being scored by the Italians. Although this means that he has to command the Croatian team to press out and play. Isn't this style of play the heart of the Italian team, which is good at defending and counterattacking? In case of a counterattack by the Italians, it is really a complete game.

"Coach, now that we're behind, are we really not going to adjust the lineup?" I was eager to fight, and I asked this sentence with great jealousy-

"What you need now is calm!" Bilic said in an aggravated tone. He seemed to be genuinely angry. He usually doesn't get angry easily, but this time he was a little angry, which was enough to scare me out of my mind.

Vader and a few other substitutes looked at me with sympathetic eyes. I gritted my teeth and sat down indignantly. Croatia is behind, I'm so anxious!

However, Bilic didn't have any intention of tweaking the lineup. Not only that, but he didn't even mean to stand up and command. At this time, he can still sit in the coach's seat, and Bilic's demeanor is really not something that ordinary coaches can have...... But now that we're behind and it's clear that the midfielders are losing ground in the middle of the pitch, who will fight for our first point if we don't make a change?

……

The referee blew the whistle and kicked off. Rakitic passed the ball to Modric, who dribbled forward and Pirlo came again. He followed Modric's footsteps, and his posture seemed to be a showdown with Modric!

"Pirlo, I'm not afraid of you!"

Modric has picked up the pace! After all, he is young, not as old as Pirlo, although his long-distance running is average, but the instantaneous speed is not bad, Pirlo was quickly thrown off, but he did not give up, still followed stubbornly!

Just then, Mota rushed over again!

This stout man of 1.87 meters has outstanding physical conditions, and his thick muscles are incomparable to Modric! Motta blocked Modric's dribbling lane, and Pirlo chased after Modric, which was equivalent to cutting off Modric's back lane! Front and back pinching, what to do!

"You must not be allowed to get the ball!" Modric picked up a cross and the ball arced and flew over Motta's head!

Twenty meters away, Rakitic chests the ball!

This cooperation is really just right, Modric's pick-up pass, Rakitic's chest stop, all in one go! Then Rakitic took the ball at his feet and rushed forward! He observed the position of Mandzukic and Jelavic on the forward line, and made another pick-and-roll pass.

Mandzukic chests the ball and he stops the ball high!

After all, Italy's back line is experienced in a hundred battles, and Barzagli didn't see it well, so he hurriedly rushed forward to block it!

Mandzukic barbs shot!

Barzagli face defend!

"Smack!" The ball hit Barzagli in the face and bounced out!

The Italians' defense is indeed worthy of its name, and their concrete defense line built with iron and blood is the basis for the Italian team to win the World Cup for so many years. Today's Italian team, although it no longer has the strength to win the championship, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, and their defensive ability is still the best in the world, there is no doubt about it. What's more, the European Cup is a game with unpopular genes, Denmark in 1992, Greece in 2004, these teams did not have the strength to win the championship, but they all relied on the defense of unity, and miraculously won the European Cup. Italy's defensive system inheritance has now been passed to the generation of Barzagli and Chiellini, although there are no absolute superstars like Cannavaro and Nesta, but among these people, each of them is still a world-class defensive master, so many defensive masters combined, it is another world's first defensive line.

Can our attack really break through Italy's concrete defence......

……

The ball bounced off Barzagli's face and the next person to pick it up was Perisic. Perisic opted for a different way of attacking - a breakthrough. He was quick and took the ball from the middle to the left. Bonucci followed him everywhere, although Bonucci did not have an advantage in absolute speed, but he stuck in the best defensive position, Perisic controlled the ball, but could not successfully cut inside!

At this time, captain Srna leaned in from the right and shouted loudly: "Perisic, give me the ball!" ”

Perisic saw that the captain asked for the ball in the middle, so he made a fake stop and pulled the ball back, Bonucci had already defended him with this move, turned around to block the ball, Perisic made a pass, the ball hit Bonucci's ankle and popped off the sideline.

Croatia's throw-in! Our captain, Srna, has a lot of power, and his throw-in grenade attack is our usual attacking method! At this time, the Italians also held their breath and dealt with it carefully, their coach Prandelli, who led the Purple Jersey Fiorentina who was not strong in the post-Batistuta era to qualify for the Champions League twice, he has an amazing diligence in coaching, and his intelligence network includes Vientiane, as well as the study of our captain Srna's "grenade throw-in". Before Srna took the throw-in, Italy's tall players largely retreated into the box, while the speedy and agile players roamed around the perimeter, ready to harass our receivers. Seeing that Italy's defense was so tight, Srna's eyes flashed with a hint of solemnity......

He started running, full speed, and threw the ball hard!

The ball whizzed like a grenade! Fly towards the big forbidden area!

The path of this ball is flat and straight, like the trajectory of a free kick! This ball is very suitable for headers!

Mandzukic! He jumped high!

Jelavic also jumped high!

At the same time, the Italian defenders - Bonucci, Barzagli, Chiellini and others - also jumped! Including midfielder Motta, who is also trying to jump up and clear!

Who can compete for this ball!

Mandzukic! He jumps higher! He rubbed his head back lightly and the ball was rubbed in Jelavic's direction!

But Jelavic jumped too early!

By this time, Jelavic's body had already begun to fall......

Motta got the header and he pushed it out with a powerful header......

Another wave of our offensive failed......
