Chapter Ninety-Six: Dead Alley
As long as the game is not over, there are variables in every second, and every player will be the source of that variable.
After the Granada team quickly equalized the score, the two teams fell into a fifteen-minute tug-of-war, and in Coach Coboni's heart, he felt that the players were extremely meticulous in these fifteen minutes, and every time they put an end to Barcelona's threatening offensives, so far, the veteran coach has no complaints.
Even if the team falls behind again.
"The goal was scored by ~~~ Barcelona No. 5 player ~~~ Puyol~~~! The score was changed to 1 to 2~~~! ”
The words from the live broadcast were undoubtedly a blow to the home team's players and fans, the Barcelona players not only attacked the home team's goal, but also once again forced one of the corner flags of the Carmenez Stadium, they celebrated wantonly, and their teammates congratulated [Lion King] Puyol one after another, the veteran who is in the twilight of his career, brushed his unkempt brown hair, and after celebrating with his teammates, he clapped five times in front of his team's fan zone to thank the fans.
For the Granada team, it was hateful that the score was once again overtaken by the opponent, so that the efforts of all parties who had been fighting with the opponent for 15 minutes came to naught.
With only 31 minutes to play in the first half, they still had a chance to recover the deficit and, of course, the opposition had a chance to extend the scoreline.
"Come back to the middle circle for me and get ready for tee-off~! Come on~! Come on~! ”
Coach Corboni yelled loudly, even if there was plenty of time, but the veteran coach did not want to waste a minute, seeing that the players were inevitably a little frustrated, he did not break the morale of the whole team like Mr. Haas. Instead, he resolutely chose to encourage the players.
What is even more surprising is that the home team's fans gave applause, and their voices rained down into the Kamenez stadium to applaud the tenacious fighting spirit of the team.
The situation is backward, but the momentum cannot be lost, and the fire in the heart cannot be extinguished......
Although the players in Granada did not play the "full-court pressing" in the mouth of Coach Corboni to the extreme, judging from the two goals they conceded, the players were powerless to save, and the responsibility was not too great, and the little flea's solo advance. [Lion King] Puyol met in front of goal, and in the face of such situations, they have done what they should have done.
In the absence of both Kabine and the regular striker, the difference in quality between the two teams is even more obvious, and the stubborn coach Corboni certainly understands this kind of thing. But if the tree does not fall, the roots will still be buried in the soil. And it can continue to grow. So the old man shouted again:
"Rush forward for me~! Two people go to grab it~! ”
There is no way to do this, given the versatility of Barcelona's attacking players, Xavi's navigation-like passing alone can kill the opponent, and if one person goes to defend alone, then the opponent has a lot of room to slip away. After getting rid of it, there is plenty of room to attack in front, and it is all the way.
The two flanked each other, defending each other left and right. Greatly weakens the opponent's skill, forcing the opponent to make array movements in just two seconds, is it twisting and cutting? Or pass the ball to a teammate? The action to be completed seems simple, but to make a decision in seconds, the nerve speed in the brain must be accelerated, and in a hurry, if the opponent mishandles it, then the Granada team will break the ball, take back possession, and take the opportunity to catch up.
Stick to the passive and wait for the initiative to appear.
Coach Corboni gave such a targeted tactic, and the head coach of the away team also saw through it early, and the fighting method between the two is only in terms of concept and policy, and to fully interpret it, it depends on the ability of the players under the camp.
In the space of five minutes, Xavi had made no less than three almost lethal deliveries, Chilean fast horse Sanchez burst forward on the right flank, and the home team's No.20 caught the ball without a foul, making Sanchez not a wolf.
Iniesta took Busquets' pass, only a second later, he encountered Rovman and the squirrel to disturb the ball, Iniesta twisted twice, with one against two, trying his best to protect the ball, this son of ball protection kung fu was excellent, the tips of the two feet seemed to be coated with glue, every time can stick to the ball, unexpectedly, Rovman's interference action, coupled with the squirrel's close pressing, did not wait for Iniesta to make a decision, the ball has been snatched by these two sons.
[Dagger] Pedro saw that his teammates were charging unsuccessfully, so he took this opportunity to change his tricks, no longer a single rush, but chose to cooperate with his teammates, and then he looked at the situation obliquely, this idea is also smart, the little flea was the first to carry out this kind of sub-action with him, the two are both known for their strange movements, and the back line led by Fiske seems to be doomed.
After receiving Iniesta's short pass, the little flea immediately touched the nerves of Rovman and No. 20 and others, without saying a word, running forward is to outflank left and right, the car ahead can be seen, the little flea is also smarter, did not wait for Rovman and others to get close, with a flick of his left foot, the ball ran straight out, flying towards Pedro, the wingman guarding the side was like a big enemy, three steps down, it was already with Pedro face to face.
Pedro didn't talk a lot of nonsense, and when the ball was still not stable, he swung it away and smashed the ball straight into the edge of the Granada team's penalty area, where the little flea waited for a long time and grinned when he saw the ball flying.
"Beautiful fit~! The Barcelona team, which has been unable to go to the next city for a long time, has presented a beautiful team tactic to everyone~! Between the two clicks, the ball came to the sensitive area of the Granada team~! ”
The commentary of the on-site commentator is often so direct and simple that the fans watching the game can understand it at a glance.
In seconds, there was a sudden "Come forward~!" Captain Fisk took the lead in starting and rushed forward to disturb the ball, but the partner next to him did not move, because after hearing the captain's order, No. 20, who had already retreated quickly, blocked the little flea's breakthrough space in two seconds, and Fisk assisted in front, which made the little flea anxious.
"Oh~~! Little fleas choose to break hard~~! It's so exciting~~! The on-site commentator roared.
The little flea is very strong at his feet, the move is direct, throwing off the enemy as if taking something in a bag, and was intercepted by Fiske and No. 20, this son's burning eyes, without fear of the field, he first turned the ball to the left, and his body hurriedly followed under the speed of his feet, but Fisk was in an excellent position, even if there was a gap of half a thread, it was also tightly sealed by the veteran, and the No. 20 was close to the little flea, it seems that the little flea insisted on breaking hard, and it took a little more effort to do it......
"Hey~~! Over here~~! 'Pedro is asking for the ball again.
The success of the solo ride earlier convinced Little Flea that his opponent's entire line of defense was a pile of tofu dregs, and that his natural hunter nature made Little Flea ignore Pedro's cunning.
Under four steps, the little flea continued to stabilize the ball, and in the two-on-one situation, no one ate the sweetness.
"It's time to break the ball~! Damn it~! Coach Corboni suddenly panicked.
The little flea scurried around the edge of the penalty area of the Granada team, looking for an opportunity to turn around and burst into the penalty area, Fisk did not dare to exhale, blocking the space for the little flea to move forward, if the little flea accelerates up the oblique up, and then he cares about the southeast and northwest, he can steal some gaps, and immediately serve the goal, but the strange thing is that the little flea is getting harder, the more he falls into the dead alley prepared for him by the other party.
"Hmph~~! There's no room at all~! Your captain Fisk will break the ball sooner or later~! ”
Mr. Haas ordered another beer from the staff, took two sips, and then said what he thought.
Carbine agreed with Mr. Haas, saying: "Even if you choose to shoot at this point, the ball will go off track~!" ”
"That's right~!" Mr. Haas replied.
The fact has been decided, the little flea refuses to let go of the ball, drags for too long, shoots at this time, the ball will fly straight to the bottom line, Xavi is behind him, and shouted: "Back~!" ”
The two are not far away, of course the little flea heard Harvey's request, Fiske and No. 20 clinged to him like a ghost, and was pinched by the opponent, under a thought, the little flea flashed with his left foot, Fiske kept up with the rhythm, and also paused, and then, the little flea pretended to change direction, and his body swung to the right, Fiske instinctively blocked, and the little flea immediately held the ball and continued to run to the left......
"Beautiful~! The little flea finally got rid of Fiske's entanglement~~! ”
It's just that the on-site commentator ignored one point, that is, No. 20 was still close behind the little flea, and when the little flea pretended to change direction to deceive Fisk, he stepped forward and completely sealed the space in front of the little flea.
Great position, great tackle.
Just behind the little flea, the tackle can only eat the red card, and the 20th saw that the time was ripe, and quickly gave action to end the little flea's presumptuousness.
With a soft "bang", the little flea fell to the ground, and the ball was no longer at his feet.
The number 20 made a tough tackle and the ball was cleared and flew towards the touchline. (To be continued......)
