Chapter 252: A Week's Effort (First Update)
For a whole week, the whole team of Getafe did only one thing - training, training, training, training. Practice new tactics, practice offside, practice set-piece attack and defence.
Of course, they didn't forget to practice penalty.
On the last day of training, Getafe held a training match behind closed doors, allowing the team's substitutes and main players to play for a game.
The substitutes continued the counter-attacking tactics that Getafe have been using this season.
And the main players play their new tactics.
In the main lineup, Mista became the main center, while Vicky replaced Charlistias.
Charlie Steas became a substitute.
At the beginning of training, Chang Sheng had already communicated with several of them.
Because from the very beginning Mista had to go to the center forward position, and ** Vic wanted to, he had to train like this. Otherwise, the effect will not be the same.
So at the beginning Charlie Steias went to the bench.
Chang Sheng made it clear to all three people. In particular, Charlisteas, who gave the Greeks a detailed account of the situation.
Why not use him?
Because the characteristics of Charlie Steas did not suit his tiki-taka tactics.
In the tiki-taka tactic, there is no need for a traditional stumping center forward, because no striker has to stand in front of the goal, and in the tiki-taka tactic, everyone is constantly running and changing positions, even the center forward. It's like a machine that works well in every link, continuously. If one of the components comes to a sudden standstill, it can cause the machine to crash and explode.
Charlie Steas is a traditional centre-forward who takes a position in the box and then his teammates create chances for him to pass the ball.
In the tiki-taka tactic, if he dies in this place, then the tiki-taka tactic will not work well at best, or it will collapse directly.
And the characteristics and style of Charlie Steias are not something that can be reversed in a short period of time.
So he had to go and play as a substitute.
It would be much better to let Mista, who is erratic and nimble, play as a central striker.
Plus the ** Vicky who is fast and has strong running ability. Thus was born a new trident under the Tiki-Taka tactic.
Chang Sheng explained his arrangement to Charlie Steias.
He was not met with any resistance.
Charlie Steas was obedient to the winning arrangement, and had no complaints.
This shows how far Chang Sheng's prestige in this team has reached.
The prestige of the [Worship] level is really not to be played.
Such a strong execution also made Chang Sheng more confident in his tactics.
In the last training session before the game, the main team defeated the substitute 3:1.
Considering that the strength of the main lineup is already stronger than the substitute lineup. So victory is a matter of course. But everyone has seen the results of the team's hard work over the course of the week – their tiki-taka tactics are starting to take shape and look decent.
The coaches on the sidelines who watched this scene were dumbfounded. They really didn't expect that Chang Win would actually let the team learn his new tactics in a week!
Although there are still some problems, it is already much better than they expected.
When Chang Sheng was congratulating and congratulating his colleagues. The heart is dark - this is the role of systematic training skills!
When I upgrade the system and have better training skills, maybe something like this one-on-the-week temporary modification of tactics will be more effective! Opponents will be completely confused!
The only trouble is that he can't stand it if he trains so hard every week, and the players certainly can't stand it......

Chang Sheng was ready for everything, and then the final against Mallorca arrived.
From the hotel to the Pizjuan Stadium, Sevilla fans were everywhere holding signs attacking Getafe and wearing Sevilla jerseys holding Mallorca scarves.
When they see the Getafe bus, many people give the middle finger to the Getafe bus. Boo.
This treatment does not end. When the Getafe players stepped onto the Pizjuán Stadium for their pre-match warm-up, they also heard loud boos.
On the contrary, when the Mallorca players came out a little later to warm up, there were cheers and applause from the stands.
The inclination of this stadium is already obvious.
When the Getafe reporters in the media gallery saw this scene, their faces were very ugly.
It's obviously a neutral stadium. Now it's almost Mallorca's home stadium.
Fifteen thousand Getafe fans came, which is more than the number of members of the Getafe club. But even then they wouldn't be able to fill the entire stadium.
The Pizjuán Stadium has a capacity of 45,500 people, and there are still 30,000 more.
Mallorca came with about 20,000 people, and the remaining 10,000 were local Sevilla fans.
In other words, all but 15,000 of them were their own people.
Mallorca have picked up a home advantage for nothing.
Playing in such an environment must be a lot of pressure on the Getafe players.
Originally, everyone thought it was a neutral venue. But who knew that such a ...... was coming?
It is not known if the Getafe team is mentally prepared enough.
※※※
Chang Sheng is in the dressing room, and his players have returned from the pitch and are changing their jerseys and preparing to play for a while.
Chang Sheng was in the locker room watching everyone busy with this and that.
He didn't speak right away, he was observing, observing everyone's situation.
He knew that the Estadio Pizjuán had become Mallorca's home stadium, and he believed that the players also knew that they were not deaf, and they could hear them so loudly during the warm-up just now.
Chang Sheng wanted to see how his players reacted in the face of such a difficult situation.
If they panick...... I'm going to have a headache.
But no.
He made a look. Not a single player panicked after such a scene, and they were very calm about what to do.
Seeing this scene, Chang Sheng was very proud.
This is my team, they haven't been for such a trivial matter!
He coughed.
The players, who had been busy, seemed to be waiting for his cough, and they immediately stopped and looked at the manager.
"On the way here, and during the warm-up. I'm sure you've seen it, it's grim, guys. Originally, the Copa del Rey final was played at a neutral venue. But as you can see now. We saw a lot of Sevilla fans on our way from the hotel and were cheering Mallorca on. You know what I see? I saw a pack of negative dogs! A large pack of negative dogs! Poor Sevilla fans. Their team was beaten by us this season, so they had to support Mallorca in a vain attempt to get them to beat us...... What a typical loser's mentality...... We should be proud, guys. Because we were able to force them to cheer for other teams. What an amazing thing that we've changed the faith of so many fans! ”
Chang Sheng said.
"In this final, we were in a really bad situation, guys. I think you've all heard of those analyses in the media. I think maybe it's just us who believe we can win. Yes, I believe we can win, do you believe it? ”
He asked.
He was answered by the uniform roar of the players: "Look-letter!!" ”
It's not pretending, these players really believe they can win.
Because they had already experienced the miracle before the race......
Just a week ago. Their head coach told them that they were going to practice a new tactic, and they were surprised and incredulous.
A week to learn a new tactic? How is this possible?
But now they don't doubt it.
That intra-team game dispelled everyone's doubts.
They really learned new tactics in a week!
And Chang Sheng told them that this was the secret weapon to defeat Mallorca.
So they are convinced that they can succeed.
"Excellent! You have to have such momentum! The opponent is stronger than us! So what? Is third in the First Division a big deal? In this game, the chances are equal! Even...... We have an advantage over them! Because I promise you...... Kill them and don't even think we'll change our tactics on the fly! A week's time. We did what ordinary people can't! With that alone, we can win! ”
"Some people think that Getafe beat the mighty Mallorca in the final of the Copa del Rey and lift the Copa del Rey is unlikely to happen unless a miracle happens. So now, guys, let me have the honor to announce...... Next. It's a time to witness a miracle! ”

While even the air was burning in Getafe's dressing room, Mallorca's dressing room was a little calmer.
Aragonés is putting the finishing touches on his players.
'It doesn't matter how our opponents play, stick to our own style. In any case, you have to be more patient than each other. ”
Patience, this is something that Aragonés repeatedly emphasizes today.
Because he knows very well that when two teams that also play defensive counter-attacks come together, the scene is absolutely ugly.
To put it bluntly, defensive counterattack is a tactic of waiting for the opponent to make a mistake and then using it to score, which is relatively negative, so many people don't like this tactic.
In this way, whoever is more patient will have the upper hand. Impatient teams will show their flaws first, giving their opponents a chance to take advantage of.
"Don't care about the voices in the stands, whether they're cheering you on or booing you. Patience is more important than anything else! ”
Because the game was not good, there was a high risk that the spectators in the stands would boo from dissatisfaction.
At this time, the most feared thing is that your players can't hold their breath and take the lead in attacking. As a result, the opponent seized the opportunity to counterattack...... Then that's all over.
Aragonés has studied Getafe carefully, and despite his disparagement of the team in front of reporters, the old foxes actually value this team very much. He found Getafe's defensive counter-attacks to be sharp and resolute, and once they were allowed to take advantage of their chances, they would pounce and bite until they knew their opponents had been bitten to death......
Against such a team, you can only be more patient than them.
In the case where both sides use the same tactics, whoever is more patient wins.
Whoever adjusts first loses.

When the players from both sides came out, the Pizjuan fans showed their inclination.
The cheers given to Mallorca's players were much higher than those given to Getafe's players.
"These damn Andalusian bastards!" Enrique. Gonzalez scolded unhappily when he saw this.
It was a neutral stadium, but it made the Sevilla fans Mallorca's home stadium. And they also have the face to say that it is for revenge...... Damn, I abandoned the team I supported, and the special area supported other teams, and I even had the face to say that it was for revenge...... It would be a shame if Sevilla wanted to take revenge like this!
"Alright, okay, Kik. You've scolded ten times...... But can you change that? An elderly fan next to him patted him and comforted him.
"I can't change it, but I want someone to do it!" Enrique. Gonzalez stared at the stands across from him and said categorically.
Your support is my biggest motivation. )
