vs 68 Vipers
"The final of the UEFA Cup has begun, and we have to say that Parma's choice in this game is quite amazing." Carraci looked at both sides of the game and commented on it, "Parma opted for a 352 formation, it seems that they are still relatively conservative and did not risk trying a back four. Rather than using the tried-and-true combination of Gilardino and Rossi, they opted to bring in Mutu, who had recently returned from injury, which was quite an amazing option. ”
Parma will have Mutu replace Rossi as the starter, apparently in surprise to many. Although in terms of strength, Mutu is indeed stronger than Rossi, limited by age, Rossi is still a little weaker after all. However, Mutu is now this season, because of the ban and drug torture, he still hasn't played for a long time, although it is said that he has been a substitute for three games, but in these three games, Parma did not win one, which also made many people talk about whether his strength is no longer good, but at this time, Li Bin gave him the opportunity to start.
"Perhaps, Li Bin just wants to be surprised? This is indeed unexpected, but is it useful? Karachi puzzled, "Putting the more secure Rossi instead of Mutu, is this gambling?" ”
Karachi was dissatisfied with Li Bin's arrangement. After all, Mutu has been injured for too long, although he is a poisonous snake, but can he still bite people? Although Rosie is young, he has also shown some talent after all, how much has Mutu's strength recovered?
This question is also what everyone doubts. And what added to the suspicion was that the match between Parma and Sporting Lisbon was extremely difficult from the start.
In such a final, both sides have prepared early, whether it is Parma or Sporting Lisbon, both sides are equally well prepared. However, with both sides ready, Parma are clearly slightly stronger than Sporting Lisbon. But from the very beginning of the game, Sporting Lisbon was on the attack.
Sure enough, it's going to be attacked......
And as Li Bin expected, as soon as the game began, Sporting Lisbon really started to attack immediately. For them, familiarity with the venue was a very important advantage, and from the outset they wanted to take Parma by surprise.
The width of the football field is different, and the theoretical regular stadium is 105 meters long and 68 meters wide. But in fact, because many times, the construction of the stadium has to take into account the number of spectators, the team with more people, the stadium needs to be larger, and the team with fewer people needs to be less. So, in fact, the size of the pitch varies a lot. According to UEFA regulations, the length of the pitch is 90-120 metres and the width is 45-90 metres – there is also a rule that the length must exceed the width.
This rule makes the size of the football field very different, and this also makes many teams very different when defending. The same four defenders, in the 45-metre-wide stadium and in the 90-metre-wide team, are completely two-paced games. When you are used to playing on a small field, and then you play on a big field, the players will inevitably not be able to get into the state for a while - the size of the field alone is enough to make it difficult for the players to bear.
And the problem of Parma is such a problem. Serie A venues are generally small, and some of them don't even meet the standards required by FIFA, so playing on such a field has become a habit, and now when you go to the Alvalad Stadium, it's more troublesome. The Alvalad Stadium is a five-star stadium after all, and their pitch is quite large, which makes it natural for them to set a strategy to attack when Parma are not prepared.
However, Parma's approach is also simple. Since the opponent's center didn't have much advantage, Parma simply put on a look of throwing away the side and sticking to the middle. Although the width of the field can be changed, the size of the penalty area is always the same, since Li Bin is going to play a cup match, then the width of the field must always be considered first, Parma's defense is simply aimed at the position in the penalty area, which makes their defense, the problem is much smaller.
Of course, giving up the wing, naturally let the opponent have the opportunity to play on the side, Sporting Lisbon got a lot of opportunities to head from the side as soon as they came up, but it is a pity that Parma's defense is quite tight, and on the issue of heading, Lisbon himself does not occupy the light at all.
The Italian team's header is not a big advantage, but when it comes to the Portuguese team, they still have a considerable height. The Portuguese league has flourished in large part because it has been able to bring in Brazilian players rather than foreign players, but the Brazilians' weak headers have made headers a big problem in their tactics. Parma's three central defenders are stuck in the middle, and goalkeeper Frei has always been very good at defending high balls, so although Parma was attacked by Sporting Lisbon again and again at this time, and within a few minutes, he was hit three corners in a row, but Parma blocked them again and again, and Lisbon's attack did not work.
"Lisbon didn't have much effect on Parma's attack, and Li Bin, as we thought, rarely had problems defending. So, the rest of the matter is to see how Parma's attack goes. ”
Although Sporting Lisbon attacked strongly, Carraci didn't think that there would be any problems with Parma's defense, but Parma's attack had a direct effect the first time, but it was beyond his expectations.
Parma's counter-attack was also fairly simple, and after Chiellini headed the ball into the middle of the pitch, Yaya Toure jumped up and fought for the ball. And after getting the ball, he directly carried Inakael, turned around, and killed the backcourt.
Yaya Toure's breakthrough in the middle made Sporting Lisbon unable to resist at all. The players of Sporting Lisbon are already older, and Roshenbach and others are still injured.
Li Bin was on the sidelines with a hint of a smile. Sporting Lisbon didn't get into the groove when they played Parma, so why don't Parma think the same way? At the beginning of Li Bin's fight, he emphasized that he should pay attention to a quick counterattack, and what he wanted was to counterattack at this time.
Yaya Toure's strong burst, when he reached the vicinity of the penalty area, was finally blocked by the opponent's crowd, but he still gave the ball to Gilardino in front of him with a good kick. Gilardino was blocked by Inakal El behind him at this time and couldn't turn smoothly, but he still kicked the ball to Mofeo next to him and passed the ball away.
And Mofeo, who received the ball, did not hesitate, and kicked the ball straight behind the Sporting Lisbon defense. By this time, Mutu had already rushed up quickly, he received a pass from Mofeo and rushed towards the goal.
"Single knife, Mutu's single knife! Mutu gets a chance to go it alone! ”
At this time, Karachi also screamed loudly.
It was a great opportunity for Parma, but no one could have imagined that it would be Mutu who would get the first chance for Parma.
This guy has been off for most of the season, his drug problem has made his body extremely poor, and he has never had the opportunity to play, plus Giuseppe Rossi has been playing very well, this game has been difficult to accept by letting Mutu start on the side, but after this time, he only has support for Parma and expectations for Mutu in his heart.
And Mutu clearly lived up to his expectations. He took two quick steps with the ball, and as he ran, his pace was clearly adjusted, his head slightly raised, looking at the gate of Sporting Lisbon, and also estimating Ricciardo's position.
Although it has been a long time, although his body has been destroyed by drugs once, but at this time, when Mutu raised his head, his eyes were still extremely dangerous. Yes, he did make mistakes, but even if he did, he repented and redeemed the mistakes of his career. And now, he also believes that he is still the poisonous snake that amazes the entire Serie A, and when he gets the opportunity again, he can still play well.
Ricardo rushed out, but Mutu had already picked the ball up gently. The ball jumped over a small arc and fell behind Ricardo.
Beto rushed back, but there was no way he could stop the ball. The ball flew into the goal, and the score was changed in an instant.
“gooooal!!!!! Well done Mutu!! Mutu is so good! That's how it kicks! It was Mutu's first goal of the season, the only one, a goal worth a thousand gold! Mutu is still able to kick a ball, and the teeth of the viper are still sharp! ”
Mutu's goal is equivalent to allowing Parma to touch the trophy with half a hand, which naturally makes the fans very happy.
Parma's goal also made Li Bin wave his hand on the sidelines. It was a beautiful ball and it gave him the courage to let the team perform the next step of the game.
Since it is already ahead, the next task is naturally to expand the score. The first step is to defend and then counterattack, relying on the short-term impatience of the opponent after the opponent comes on the pitch, launching a quick counterattack, not taking the high ball line, but using the strong physical advantage of Yaya Toure and Melo, forcing a surprise attack, disrupting the opponent's backline, so that the team can score - this is the first step of the task.
It was a great step, it exceeded expectations, and it was great to be able to score on the first attack. And the next thing is to find a way to expand the score.
The opponent was demoralized by this goal, and his morale will definitely be low - after all, no one will be happy if he attacks the door and is counterattacked by the opponent. At this time, the second step of Li Bin's arrangement is to fight the opponent in the midfield.
The age, injuries, physical and other problems of the opposing players make their ability to fight and entangle as well as Parma. When their morale begins to slump, if they blindly attack, it is very likely to arouse their hearts to resist, but if at this time, they slow down the pace, take their time, and smash the midfield, so that they can still hold the hope of being able to open up the situation in the middle, and slowly fight with Parma. And the result of the death was naturally a decline in their physical strength, and they were dragged to death by Parma at the end.
Step by step, you can't be in a hurry at this time. It's a big competition, and if you win this one, you'll have your first championship. If you are ready, for this game, for this game, you have to let people see how your ability is.
