Chapter 144: Let's see how many kicks they can stop!
Even if you are optimistic about Zhang Tiehan, you can't imagine that he scored with his first shot on goal. This goal made the Roma fans in the stadium very excited, and when they looked back, they found that this was Zhang Tiehan's first appearance for Roma and the first time he shot on goal.
A header!
Clean, decisive and beautiful...... And so on, a series of words of praise can be used on this goal, recall the scene of the goal just now, and then link it to the goal, fans take the goal for granted, and at the same time, they are also surprised by Zhang Tiehan's heading ability and physical element.
They know that Zhang Tiehan's header is very strong, header and long-range shot, these are Zhang Tiehan's two major weapons, but Roma fans haven't had a chance to see it before, and they don't know what 'very strong' means, but now they have seen this shot clearly and intuitively, and they know.
That...... Really strong!
In addition to the beautiful header, just now, Zhang Tiehan was carrying two Lecce defenders and forcibly jumped up to complete the shooting action, and that scene was really shocking.
In contrast, Lecce's two defenders seem to be decorations.
……
At the moment when the football plane goal, Cergar, the commentator of the Rome Olympic Stadium, shouted at the top of his voice, "The ball is in!" Thirteen sheets from Rome! A nice header! ”
"Zhang rewrote the score for Roma!"
Speaking of Chergar, it suddenly occurred to me that this seemed to be Zhang Tiehan's first shot, transferred to a team, represented the field for the first time, and scored the ball in the first shot, such a player is really too few, from this point of view, this goal also has other meanings.
He immediately said, "This is Zhang's first shot!" Header! When Zhang came to Rome, his information was introduced on the official website of Rome. He's a nineteen-year-old from League One, two years younger than De Rossi, and the German talent doesn't seem to be on Worrall's radar, but that's okay, now he has his chance. He's proving something with goals as well! We saw it, he scored! ”
"He said before the game that he was going to score!"
'I didn't believe it, I felt like he was boosting morale, yes, Roma needs some morale right now, that's supposed to be Totti's job, but he did, of course. Totti presumably paid for his work...... It's just a joke, but Zhang's goal was really beautiful! In retrospect, I'm really hard to describe, so let's take a look at the replay with a big lens! ”
Chergar joked as he spoke, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
This is understandable.
He's a true Roman, he's been a Roma fan since he was a kid and now he has a job as an Olympic commentator, but before the game. He couldn't think of what Rome would do, and he wasn't optimistic about Rome. It's not just him, everyone sees it that way, and when he talks about Roma with his friends, he's so sad that he's even ready to watch a game where Roma lose.
But now Zhang Tiehan has scored, and Roma are ahead.
There is a lead. There is no doubt that the game is much better, and Chergar is in a better mood, and he feels that he should look in a good direction, in case ...... What if Rome suddenly gets better?
This is also hope!
……
Cergar thought so, and so did the rest of Roma fans.
They were watching the game in a low state. The word 'low' is the perfect way to describe their situation just now, they are listless, and even when Rome attacked, the shouts were not high, but now their spirit is renewed, everyone is shouting hard, shouting hard, they want to use the shouting to give Rome a new life.
At the same time, the Roma players were celebrating wildly on the pitch.
The first ten minutes of the game seemed dull, they were also dull, and the goal came at the right time, which suddenly made them feel that the goal was easy.
Look, just pass the ball into the box and the ball goes in.
Once, just once!
It was the first time Roma hoisted the ball into the box and then scored, isn't that simple enough? They didn't have any great combinations before, just Mancini broke through with the ball and then crossed with his feet, and that's it, but it was such a simple attack that he kicked the ball into the Lecce goal.
It's that easy!
The Roma players felt very happy, their own side scored a goal, and their mood became much more relaxed with the goal. With a one-goal lead, the rest of the game is much easier.
……
Zhang Tiehan hugged every teammate who rushed over, repeating in his mouth, "I just said I could score." ”
It's kind of crazy like that.
But Roma teammates can understand, although it is just a simple goal, but Zhang Tiehan did not get any chance to play in the first two rounds plus a Champions League group stage, this is his first game for Roma, and it is also the first goal scored for Roma, this goal is undoubtedly quite important, and they also send blessings and congratulations.
"Well done, Zhang!"
"If I had known you could go through, I'd passed it on a long time ago!"
"yes, this header is beautiful!"
"The expressions of those two Lecce defenders are really funny, they can't do anything about it!"
"Of course, Zhang Jian is like two bulls! That's what the doctor said......"
Cassano said as he touched Zhang Tiehan's head, touching and touching, Zhang Tiehan felt very depressed, "What are you doing, Antonio!" Perhaps because he stood in the united front before, Zhang Tiehan and Cassano are already very familiar, and the relationship between the two is very good, Cassano is Zhang Tiehan's first friend in Rome, and he is currently the best friend.
"I'm going to be a little lucky! You're using this to get the ball in, right? Cassano pointed to a spot on Zhang Tiehan's forehead.
Zhang Tiehan's face turned black when he heard this, "What luck is not lucky, I am strength!" ”
"I don't believe it, if it's not lucky, you won't even get a chance." Cassano said, shook his hand and touched it twice, as if he was stroking a baby, Zhang Tiehan hurriedly walked away from him.
He understood Cassano.
He's scored, Cassano hasn't scored yet, both are strikers, although he's a striker who feeds on his body and Cassano is that flexible, but after Worrall left. It is no surprise that both will be starting strikers, and if he scores and Cassano does not, the pressure on Cassano will certainly be high.
"Don't side with me, you'll have more chances." When the two separated, Zhang Tiehan nodded.
Cassano is unknown.
But wait until the game starts. He understood a little.
Zhang Tiehan scored a goal, and it was scored by two Lecce defenders, such a goal made the Lecce defenders immediately notice him, they used to think that Zhang Tiehan was not a threat, but now they don't think so.
This guy is not threatening? No, the threat is too great!
Neither defender could stop him from heading the ball and if Roma did it again, wouldn't he be going to score again? So they defended Zhang Tiehan a lot tighter, and naturally Zhang Tiehan was on the other side. Cassano's defense in that direction was a lot more sparse.
Cassano had more opportunities.
But Zhang Tiehan was a little depressed, he stood at the front of the team, he had received the ball very rarely, occasionally received the ball, and could only pass it back to his teammates, and now Lecce has a tighter defense against him, and he receives the ball less often.
In particular, he was not quite accustomed to Roman tactics.
That's a problem.
At Wigan Athletic, there was no such problem at all. Wigan Athletic is a League One team in its own right, and second-tier teams tend to have simple tactics. Roma is different, as a strong team in Serie A, Roma's tactics are very complex, and the speed of football passing and transfer is also very fast, such as two full-backs, when the football is on one side. The wing-backs on the other side should also shift their runs, so that they can move quickly in both directions to achieve the goal of tearing apart the opponent's defense with passes.
And that's just the basics.
In terms of passing and receiving in the middle, the tactics are more complicated, and most of the training on weekdays is mainly based on this aspect. Up to now, Zhang Tiehan is still a little unclear about many matching routines and ideas, so he has been trying to adapt and has made great progress, but it is difficult to make any progress in a short period of time.
On the other hand, there is Lecce's defense.
Lecce is a traditional Serie A team, their overall strength, the individual ability of the players is not outstanding, it should be said that it is not good at all, but when their players form a whole to defend, Zhang Tiehan obviously feels the pressure.
The Lecce players were running in a disorderly manner, sometimes not even seeing the formation clearly, but each time he found that there was a Lecce player between himself and the football, and if a team-mate passed the ball at this time, it would be dangerous. But no matter how he runs, most of the time it's like that, unless he suddenly accelerates, or changes positions, etc., it's very difficult to get a pass.
He also understands why his teammates don't always pass the ball to him.
Zhang Tiehan knew before that the defense of the Serie A team was very tight, but he didn't know very well how it was, and now he knows that these defensive players rely on standing to defend, as long as the passing route is blocked, then the team's small-scale offensive cooperation can't be played at all, and it's no wonder that whether it's Worrall or other assistant coaches, they always ask to do some long passes, high ball transfer cooperation, and the ground-based offense is really difficult to play.
……
In the next game, Roma and Lecce both attacked each other, but neither side scored.
Zhang Tiehan was very closely defended by Lecce's defenders, he didn't get any chances, Cassano was very flexible, he kept attacking the left side of the opponent's penalty area, causing Lecce problems, and had two shots on goal, but the position was not very good, and he couldn't score the ball.
Even so, the Roma fans in the audience were delighted.
What's more, during this time, Roma has gained an advantage in the situation, and in the case of leading, and being able to gain an advantage, it means that Roma has most of the advantage and is likely to win the game, which makes Roma fans very satisfied.
In the past, opponents like Lecce were not at all in the eyes of the Romans.
But now that Roma are in crisis, it's good for the team to have this kind of appearance, and Roma fans want the team to make a big change, but that kind of thinking is too extravagant, and they will be happy if the team can improve a little, after all, it is much better than the first two dull and hopeless games.
Zhang Tiehan was very depressed.
Twenty minutes later, he had only five touches in total, two tackles back to the back, and one steal.
He basically didn't show anything for the past twenty minutes.
At the same time, he also deeply understands the horror of the opponent's defense, the opponent's defender is to use the running position, not to give himself a chance at all, teammates want to pass the ball is very difficult, when the football is near the penalty area, it becomes very difficult to pass the ball, he can only stand near the penalty area, watching the team's attack fail again and again, even if it does not fail, it basically has little to do with him.
Zhang Tiehan was secretly a little anxious.
The opponent is indeed very defensive, but if you want to say that you want to rely on this defense and completely limit yourself, then you really can't say!
He began to drop back frequently to get the ball.
……
Many fans at the scene also noticed Zhang Tiehan, Zhang Tiehan didn't have anything to show during this time, the commentator mentioned him very few times, they hadn't seen Zhang Tiehan for a long time, but then, Zhang Tiehan suddenly appeared in the midfield, which surprised them a little.
"Zhang seems to want to pull back to get the ball."
"He's been in a bit of trouble just now, Lecce are very tight defending against him, they seem to recognise the need to defend Zhang carefully, hopefully Zhang can figure out some way out of the current situation, we should have more hope for the German talent." ”
With his words, Zhang Tiehan received a pass near the halfway line.
He didn't rush into anything, but passed the ball to Totti, and then accelerated sharply and leaped past the Lecce player in front of him, just then Totti's pass happened to be in front of him.
"It's not Totty! Roman Prince! Zhang Tiehan secretly praised.
While receiving the ball, he glanced at the direction of the goal, and then when everyone in the field did not react, he suddenly got up and shot!
Boom!
A heavy artillery shot thirty meters away!
The ball came too suddenly, including Lecce players, Roma players, coaches and reporters of both teams, and everyone at the Rome Olympic Stadium did not react at the first time, the football rushed to the goal on the grass, flew past the two Lecce goals in a row, and flew straight into the penalty area, the opposing goalkeeper Amelia reacted and subconsciously pounced to the side.
The ball was saved by Amelia and flew out of the net by a fraction of a second.
Although there were no goals, the Lecce players broke out in a cold sweat, and the Roma fans in the stands let out exclamations afterwards.
This ball, too suddenly, too scary!
At this time, the camera pointed to Zhang Tiehan, who had completed the shot, and saw him waving his fist in annoyance, shouting to his teammates behind him, "He didn't go in...... Just kick it like that! I think they can stop a few kicks! (To be continued......)
