Chapter 422: Different from Tiki-taka (87/134)

What kind of tactics will Lazio's non-nuclear tactics be?

This is difficult to summarize clearly, because until now, there has been no specific presentation of this set of tactics.

Sometimes, it acts like everyone can organize an attack. Sometimes it looks like everyone is an invisible emperor.

If anyone thinks that multi-core tactics are nothing more than a few more Modric and a few more Ballack, they are very wrong.

There are also people who think that Lazio's multi-core tactic is to organize the attack with the participation of many players when attacking.

In fact, Lazio still play the football they are good at, but the core of the organization has changed.

If that's all there is, then Lazio's tactics are anything but revolutionary.

It's not that the whole Lazio team has been training hard for two seasons and hasn't fully trained.

Multi-core tactics are more of an idea than a tactic.

It's not about a specific style of play, it's about the way the players are involved.

In the end, the perfect multi-core strategy should be one that is not tied to any one style of football.

The most appropriate judgment and choice are made completely according to the situation on the field.

For example, in the face of high defense, Lazio will use long passes to rush and hang, which is one of the optimal options. Because the cost of long-pass punching crane is the lowest, the effect is the best.

But if you think that Lazio will only choose to play long balls in the face of a high defence, you are very wrong.

They can also use quick passing to run and quickly pass the ball from the back to the front and then threaten your goal.

There are times when they look like they're playing tiki-taka, other times they're playing counter-attacking, and other times they're using simple, rough long passes that work well......

They can change their style of play at any time.

And this change is completely untraceable.

As their opponents, you don't know what they're going to do next.

That way, it becomes very difficult for you to want to defend because you can't do it in a targeted manner.

Most of the teams collapsed at this point.

A small number of strong teams will choose their defensive style based on Lazio's attacking style. They will also adjust themselves.

But this way of playing the ball with Lazio running behind the ass all the time can make them feel tired and not very productive.

At first they may be able to keep up, but later on, they can't keep up with Lazio's rhythm at all.

In the end, it was defeated without any suspense.

This is the power of Lazio's multi-nuclear tactics.

The initiative is always in their hands, and their opponents can always be led by their noses.

※※※

Even Pep Guardiola, who knows Lazio well enough, doesn't know much more about multi-core tactics than the average person.

The multi-core tactics he knows are the ones that the media have analyzed and summed up - in tiki-taka football, there are just a few more organizational cores. Just like the name suggests, multiple cores.

So when he defends, of course, the focus will only fall on Modric, Ledesma, Ballack, David. Silva and Mario. Götze on these people.

In everyone's opinion, these people are all players who can organize the attack, and these people take turns to organize the attack, which is enough for their opponents to drink a pot.

Such a multi-core tactic is difficult enough to defend, and this must be the true meaning of Lazio's multi-core tactics.

There was once a media outlet that gave Lazio's multi-core tactics a name called "Hydra".

The hydra, the hydra of Greek mythology, is a mythical creature of the West and appears most frequently in ancient Greek mythology. Legend has it that he had a hundred heads, and if one of them was cut off, two more would be born at once.

It's simply a very difficult monster.

It is really apt to describe the multi-nuclear tactics of Lazio in everyone's impression.

Every head is a core, and even if you freeze one of Lazio's cores, the other players will immediately become cores, as if two more heads have grown at once.

As a result, some media called Lazio's multi-core tactics "Hydra tactics".

At the same time, it is a metaphor that Lazio is simply a devil's cave, which is not at all flattering.

But Hydra is only a manifestation of Lazio's multi-core tactics, and does not fully interpret Lazio's multi-core tactics.

So far, Lazio's internal name has only been used to refer to this new tactic as "multi-core tactics", and the name "Hydra tactics" that the media has given them has not been used to refer to this new tactic.

※※※

Barcelona's defence was based on Lazio's "Hydra tactics", and they were just targeting one form.

Of course, Guardiola is not clear about this. After all, he has been away from Lazio for three years.

In the past three years, Lazio has also undergone a lot of changes.

Ten minutes into the game, Pep Guardiola was keenly aware that something was wrong.

This Lazio team played very flexibly, which made him a little confused.

It stands to reason that with what he knows about Lazio, he knows very well how Lazio will play.

This is also an advantage of Barcelona.

Because he will tell the players what he has learned to the Barcelona players.

But now, he found that he didn't know much about Lazio either.

He thought Lazio was still playing tiki-taka, but when he looked closely, he felt unfamiliar.

The specific performance is that when Modric has the ball, Xavi of Barcelona goes up to defend him. At the same time, around Modric, other Barcelona players also took action, blocking several of Modric's exit routes. If Modric wants to pass the ball, they may be cut off and hit a counter-attack.

Especially Ledesma and Ballack, as well as Jose. Passarella's three Lazio players all have a Barcelona player next to them.

This kind of defensive method of blocking the passing route was used last season when the two teams faced off. Both used this move, so the defense of both sides was very targeted at that time.

This season, Pep Guardiola has built on this and strengthened his defences against several Lazio players who can organise attacks, keeping them out of his sight.

It can be said that it is an upgraded and strengthened version of last season's defensive tactics.

That kind of defense is enough to trap Modric.

Force him to pass back, or make some wrong passes.

But Modric's choice surprised both the Barcelona players and Pep Guardiola.

Modric didn't return the ball and didn't take the risk of passing the ball to his nearby team-mates, he just sent the ball diagonally to the left wing!

The encirclement built by Barcelona's jīng heart was thus ineffective. The ball flew over their heads, and they couldn't stop it, even if they were in the passing lane.

This kind of mid-to-long-range pass, which is more than 30 meters long, is rare in Barcelona-style tiki-taka.

Because the important feature of Tiki-Taka is the continuous and fast short passing!

But that's not all, the surprise continues.

Receiving the ball on the left flank was David. Silva.

After he stopped the ball, he didn't dribble the ball himself, and he didn't pass it to Ledesma or Klose, who were closest to him.

Barcelona have also made a very detailed defensive arrangement against him.

He didn't have too good passing options.

David. Silva, like Modric, is directly another long pass!

Football moves directly from the left wing to the right!

Two long passes in a row made the Barcelona players a little stunned.

They know Lazio very well because their manager knows Lazio very well, and the football that Lazio plays is in the same vein as their football, so they all know how Lazio plays.

Over time, a fixed impression is formed in their minds. The impression is that Lazio are a team that plays short passes on the ground like them.

This impression is ingrained in their minds.

So when they saw that Lazio had made two long pass transfers in a row, they were shocked and didn't expect it at all.

By the time they reacted, Lazio's right-back Cesar Azpilicueta had stopped the ball in the air!

At this time, Barcelona's players woke up from a dream - their defensive focus was on the right side, but Lazio directly transferred the attack to their left side through a long pass, but their defensive strength was very weak!

So they hurriedly shifted their defensive focus, and everyone rushed towards this side!

※※※

"Lazio's long pass shift...... Pretty! Quickly and accurately found Barcelona's defensive weaknesses! ”

When he saw this scene, Guardiola also stood up from his seat suddenly.

He suddenly realized that something was wrong.

After Azpilicueta received the ball, there was a tendency to dribble forward.

Barcelona's defensive attention was focused on him.

However, Azpilicueta's breakthrough with the ball forward was nothing more than a feint, and he made the Barcelona defenders highly nervous and carried away to pounce.

In this continuous shift of center of gravity, Barcelona's defense will naturally lose sight of one or the other, and there will be holes.

That's what Azpilicueta is here to do.

He didn't break through, but directly sent a straight stopper!

He sent the ball into the ribs of the box!

All the Barcelona players were staring at him and forgetting about the people around them.

Mario. Gotze was able to get out of the way, he quickly turned inside and received the ball from Cesar Azpilicueta in the open space!

Of course, when he received the ball, he didn't even have a Barcelona player around him!

"This ball...... No offside! A successful pass-and-run match, anti-offside! ”

In the exclamation of the narrator, Götze turned around and shuffled!

The ball was hit by him in the upper part and raced towards the goal close to the turf!

Valdés pounced on the ground, but was a step too late, and the ball slid into the goal before his fingers were on the post! (To be continued.) )
