The game at Portman Road has begun.

Before the game, many media reported that both teams specifically mentioned Derby County's two-goal home victory over Leicester City, Leicester City is second in the league, and second place in the league is not something that any team can beat, so many people are very concerned about Derby County, and they want to see if this team led by young Chinese will have any special performance when facing Ipswich.

The results were disappointing.

As soon as the game began, Derby County put on an all-out defensive stance, with the exception of striker Bolton Reiter, everyone else huddled in their own half, seemingly not wanting to attack at all.

"It's defense again!"

"He can't come up with something new!"

"That Chinese will not be anything else, he just wants to rely on defense to defend the goal, but the opponent in this game is Ipswich! Ipswich are defensive players who will play with a steady presence under their boss Jo Leal and will not attack rashly...... Then we can imagine that the players of the two defenses, neither of whom will take the initiative to attack, will definitely be a very boring game......"

"But Derby County can afford it, their relegation form is not bad, they are not afraid of losing. It's just that the tactics of this Chinese are a little disappointing. ”

"What else would he do besides defense?"

A group of reporters said in the media gallery, one by one incarnated football experts continued to analyze the game in detail, the general meaning is that Derby County's style of play is disappointing, and their head coach, the young Chinese Wansheng, has no new tricks, only defends Yunyun.

That's the opinion of most journalists.

This 'most' is the media reporters of Derby County and Ipswich. Naturally, the mainstream media with Derbyshire Sports as the newspaper will not support Wansheng, no matter what Wansheng does and how well he does it, but they are hostile, so they will definitely find fault; Naturally, the media in Ipswich supported Ipswich, and they also felt that Derby County was really nothing out of the ordinary, and they actually chose to defend directly, which is really too conservative.

However, in the eyes of neutral media reporters, the ideas of these people are really unreasonable!

This is Portman Road, Ipswich Town's turf, a team that can only be relegated, to the home of seventh in the league, what is so strange about choosing to defend?

What's more, Ipswich is also very conservative......

At Portman Road, on their own turf, their formation did not stretch out, and the style of play was also very conservative, although Ipswich was attacking from the beginning, but it was obvious that they did not press all the lines, and only half of the players in each attack were in front.

If you really want to be conservative, Ipswich will definitely not be able to run!

……

The Derby players don't know what the media reporters say, they don't care, they care about the coach's tactical arrangement, they care about the coach's emphasis on defense, and they care about the outcome of the game.

So they know what they have to do.

The game was ugly or not, they didn't care at all, winning was more important than anything else, so at the beginning of the game, they were all huddled in the half, just waiting for Ipswich to attack.

The coach said......

"We're defending, we're going to keep the goal, and if they don't press all the way up, we're going to defend ......"

"On the contrary, if the opponent attacks on all fronts, then we will have the opportunity to counterattack!"

Both teams are defense-oriented teams, and it is too difficult to score goals if you rely on normal advancement, so you don't have to think about pushing the attack or anything, just kick it casually, and the important thing is to keep the goal in the half.

Everyone knew exactly what to do, so the whole Derby team held on to the half-time and didn't rush across the halfway line.

Ipswich side.

Zu Leal also told the players to pay attention to defense, he knows that Derby County is also a team that is good at counter-attacking, so he must not give them the opportunity to counterattack, and there must be enough players at the back, so that he is not afraid of leaks in the defense when the ball is suddenly broken.

Ipswich have been on the attack, but they have been on the lookout for Derby counter-attacks.

Two years is enough time for Jo Leal to imprint the concept of defense into the minds of every Ipswich player, they all think about defense, and every player follows the arrangement of the old manager, so they don't have the heart to press up and attack at all.

Similarly, the Derby County players are very disciplined.

Wan Sheng knows very well that they can't give Ipswich any chance, and if they let Ipswich score first, it will be difficult for them to beat Ipswich. If given a choice, he would rather not score than give Ipswich a chance. A rash run may be nothing, but a single goal is enough to decide the outcome of the game.

Both teams are like this, and the game scene can be imagined.

Ipswich are also not good at attacking, not to mention, they still have a lot of focus on Derby's counter-attack, and the game scene is really lethargic.

in the audience.

The 30,000 fans before the game still filled the stadium with heat, and as the game progressed, the fans' voices became smaller and smaller, and even the purest Ipswich supporters felt a little too lazy to watch the game.

It's a ...... Boring!

Not to mention the not-so-pure Ipswich fans, as well as some neutral fans, who even chatted in the stands about the game between the two teams.

In contrast, Derby County fans are mostly serious about watching the game.

Because Derby County are passive, they will also worry about Derby County fans, and this worry will make them watch the game more seriously.

But they didn't complain about the way the team played.

Like those neutral media thoughts, you must know that Derby's opponent is Ipswich, the seventh-ranked team in the league, and this is Portman Road, it is normal for Derby County to choose defense, and Derby County under the leadership of the Chinese is good at defense.

They also want the team to play well, but they care more about winning or losing.

If this game can be won, Derby County will be able to avoid relegation two rounds earlier, which is the first thing for Derby County at the moment!

In comparison, a little ugly game is nothing.

……

Ipswich Town coach Zu Leal sat in the dugout, watching the game on the field, his wrinkled face and two deep marks between his eyes.

The old coach is worried about the game.

He has coached so many teams and experienced so many games, and now that he is old, it is difficult to be like a young man, with the spirit of daring to fight, he cares more about the stability of the team, the stability of the game, he also knows that his tactical style is too conservative, but he always believes that step by step, steady forward is the best.

So the tactics he arranged still chose to be conservative.

Even though this is Portman Road, he wants the team to play steadily, not rashly attacking, and not giving the opponent any chance.

He is not afraid of the other party's counterattack.

He has laid out all the strategies for the opponent's attack, and if the opponent suddenly finds an opportunity to counterattack, or pushes to press, the team's defense is enough to limit the opponent, so it is their chance.

What he was most worried about was that the other party would not attack.

Just like now, the opponent doesn't have the slightest intention of attacking, it's all about defense, as if to say, "We just have to defend the goal, attack or something, it doesn't matter at all."

Faced with such an opponent, Zu Leal hesitated.

Aggressive attack? That would be tantamount to stepping into the other party's trap.

Just keep playing like that? But relying only on a few players in the frontcourt, it is really a little too difficult to break through the Derby County goal, which is good at defense, and it is estimated that God will really need help to score.

It's not that he doesn't have confidence in the team's front court, it's that he knows the team too well.

Ipswich has no talented players in the frontcourt, and the biggest advantage of the two forwards and two full-backs is that they are fast, and the others are very average. But in the face of Derby County, who are steadily shrinking the defensive line, speed is not an advantage, and the limited area in the front field makes them unable to play at all.

What now?

Zu Leal couldn't help but turn his head to look at the Derby County coach's box, where the young Chinese was watching the game with Erlang's legs crossed, as if he wasn't worried about the game at all.

He shouldn't have worried.

Jo Leal knows that the game has become a battle of patience, who wants to win more, who can't help but want to score first, and then launch a big attack, then who will be at the bottom of the game, and who will win and who will lose will depend on luck.

He thought about it for a long time, and looked at the time, and the game was only less than twenty minutes, and finally sighed.

Still is...... Let's do it first.

……

Wan Sheng sat on the coach's seat with Erlang's legs crossed, chewing gum in his mouth.

He's not worried about the team.

Before the game, he had analysed a lot of Ipswich games, and now Ipswich are a very conservative team, plus they have a veteran manager who is over 60 years old, and now this kind of game situation has been expected by him.

Ipswich is good at defending and the quality of the players up front is mediocre, so he doesn't worry about his own goal either.

On the field, this Derby County, in the football training master's lineup system, the defensive evaluation is not too high, but it has also reached 73, he sent Ivan Crewe, Wilberg, Leon Osman, who are better at attacking, to replace Rishi Ferdinand, Vicente and others, who are better at defense, so the defensive evaluation value is slightly lowered, but he believes that the whole line of defense is enough to withstand the offensive of half of Ipswich's team.

The football game is a battle of wits and courage between the coaches of the two teams.

He carefully analysed Zu Leil's life as a coach and carefully analysed many of Ipswich's games, and he already thought about what kind of tactics Ipswich would use, which was a bet, but at least for the time being, he won the bet.

He is not worried that Ipswich will not attack much, and Derby County will not have a chance to counterattack, but he is a little worried that they will do so, because the defensive evaluation of 73 points is not very much, and if the opponent attacks in a big way, maybe the goal will be in real danger.

But the other party didn't do this, and everything was under control.

He likes it.

As a football coach, it's a feeling to be in control of the team, to be in control of the game, and he doesn't want anything to get out of his control, and now the opponent's tactical setup is under control. He was able to relax and watch the game, just like a regular fan, and he was even in the mood to chat casually and joke with Diamares next to him.

The camera lens is pointed.

This is the East Suffolk TV station, and as a small regional TV station, they only broadcast the matches of the East Suffolk teams, and Ipswich is also one of them.

Seeing that the young Chinese coach of Derby County was joking with the assistant coach, the commentator Brown said disdainfully, "This Chinese coach is really calm, looking at his appearance is not worried about the game at all, but how long can he keep it like this?" On the field, Ipswich has the advantage......"
