Chapter Forty-Six: We Compete Who Scores More Goals!
In the 35th minute of the first half, Derby County made a substitution, with Burton Reiter coming on in place of captain Marcus. Small ⊙
Seeing this substitution in Derby County, most of them were a little incomprehensible.
This also includes the various commentators, and the on-site commentator Alfer said, "Derby County made a substitution, Reiter stood on the sidelines, and he replaced the team's captain Marcus? ”
He hesitated for a long time before he said strangely, "This substitution adjustment is a bit incomprehensible, now Derby County has the advantage on the field, their attack has been playing very well, and Cahill is also on the front line, there is no need to change at all, it is a bit unwise to change people at this juncture."
Alfi hesitated and did not directly criticize Wan Sheng.
Alfe is a local resident of the town of Greater Derby, he opened his own city, and the Pride Stadium commentator is just his part-time job, but he has been doing this part-time job for many years, not for the money, but because he likes the job, because of this, whenever there is a player in Derby County who has a bad table, or the manager makes a bad decision, he will directly criticize and even question.
When Wan Shenggan first coached Derby County, Alfi was also very unoptimistic about him, and in the first two games, Alfei also raised a lot of doubts about Wan Sheng.
Alfi is quite an authority among Derby County fans and his skepticism is also representative of a large part of the fans.
But with Wansheng leading the team to victory again and again, in this season, Alfi only has support for Wansheng, because Wansheng can always lead the team to victory, so even if he encounters some incomprehensible situations, he will not question it at the first time, and now it is also euphemistic to say 'a little unwise'.
Alfi thinks so, let alone anyone else.
The reporters in the media gallery were a little stunned when they looked at this substitution in Derbyshire, and then they laughed and sarcastically -
"This Chinese is really crazy!"
"Derby played really well, maybe this substitution will change the situation!"
"They're losing from now on!"
"I wish he could keep being stupid, haha, that's funny."
on the pitch.
Marcus also didn't understand why he was substituted. But he didn't hesitate to do anything, because he was the captain of the team, there was no need to worry about the main position, and the manager couldn't target him anything, so he walked off the field without the slightest hesitation, and handed the captain's armband to Morris before leaving the field.
In this way, Morris became the captain of the field.
Reiter and Marcus clapped their hands and walked onto the court, while Wan Sheng walked over to Marcus, hugged his shoulders and said nothing.
Marcus was about to ask, and Diamares asked first. "Wansheng, is this really good?"
"Don't worry, it's the right adjustment!"
In fact, Wan Sheng was also a little hesitant, but when he saw that the team could not score the second goal after scoring the first goal and occupying a huge advantage on the field, he still made a choice.
It can't go on like this!
If he played against a normal team, Wan Sheng would not have worried at all, but the opponent was West Bromwich Albion. Although the team can suppress the opponent now, it does not mean that the whole game can be suppressed, and he believes that after West Bromwich Albion makes adjustments, their table will definitely be much better in the second half. So if you want a solid victory, it's best to extend the score advantage in the first half.
He hesitated for a moment before deciding to replace him with Reiter.
Switching to Reiter is tantamount to adding an offensive tool, and at the same time adding an offensive point to the frontcourt.
Cahill's header was good, though. But he is not a real center after all, he has to face too much defensive pressure at the front alone, and he is very tightly defended. Other players have to be plugged in very high if they want to get a chance, and even if they are plugged in, it is very difficult to find opportunities, mainly because the team's technology and coordination ability are limited after all, and it is difficult for them to find opportunities when they plug in, and if they are inserted too far forward, the overall formation will be driven to press very forward, and it is likely to give West Bromwich Albion a chance to counterattack.
Instead of this, it is better to directly replace Marcus, who has some 'idle' in the backfield, and replace it with Reiter.
However, in this way, Alfred will have to face a lot more defensive pressure, although West Bromwich Albion is suppressed, but it does not mean that they are completely without attacking, when they attack, Alfred will have to face pressure, before Marcus shared the pressure, but now he has to face it alone.
But Wansheng has faith in Alfred.
As long as you don't give the other party that very good opportunity, one-on-one situation, if you want to get rid of Alfred and score the ball, it really requires a lot of skill, Alfred's ability in defense is very good, fast, decisive, and physically strong, and most importantly, after a game of experience, Alfred's game mentality is getting better and better, his willpower and confidence have made great progress, with the current situation, Alfred is alone in the backfield, and Wansheng doesn't need to worry much.
This is also an experience for Alfred.
In contrast, it is much more important to extend the advantage of the scoreline, and if there is a two-goal advantage in the first half, it will be very difficult to equalize the score even if West Bromwich Albion adjusts in midfield
At the start of the new season, the team is not in a good situation for Reiter, because he faces a lot of competition and he can't get the opportunity to play every time.
It's not that Reiter has been reduced to a substitute.
In fact, there is only one high school striker in the team at the moment, and that is himself, and he has little competition for this position, but he still needs to fight for a position with his watch, because many times, the team can only play with one striker.
He, or Cahill, is the choice.
Cahill had scored quite a few goals in previous games, so Cahill had an advantage over the competition.
In fact, there is another important reason why Reiter is at a disadvantage in the competition, that is, he can play too single position, which is related to his game experience, he has only played as a center forward, and has never tried other positions at all.
In contrast, Cahill and Ian Taylor are both flexible in their positions.
They can play in midfield, they can play as strikers.
In the 4231 formation, Cahill was able to play directly as a single striker on many occasions. At the same time, he can also play left and right wingbacks, the formation has been changed to 433, Cahill can play all three positions in the front, and the same is true for Ian Taylor, he can play more positions than Cahill, so they have a lot of opportunities, but Reiter is different, 4231 formation, he can only play as a single striker, 433. He can still only play as a central striker, and in the new season, the team has barely played 442, so Reiter's chances of playing have decreased a lot.
There are fewer opportunities to play, and there are naturally fewer opportunities.
So far, Leiter has only played three times and scored one goal, which is not good or bad. But at the same time, many people look at Cahill and almost forget about the outstanding young man at the end of the season.
But LTECH didn't care.
LETT always believes that as long as he is willing to work hard, he will be able to perform better in the future, just like he did last season. As long as he has time, he will train, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will work hard.
At the same time last year, he was still in the Derby County youth team. It's impossible to play for the first team and now you've played regularly for the team. It's just that there seem to be fewer appearances for tactical reasons, so what's not to be satisfied with?
If this continues, sooner or later he will succeed.
After Reiter came out, he was full of fighting spirit, he was very cooperative with the team's attack, and he worked very hard to find opportunities.
Derby's attack has continued, after Cahill scored the first goal, the delay in scoring is related to West Bromwich Albion's strengthening of the defense, but also related to the overall luck of the team, the game is like that sometimes, it doesn't mean that you have the advantage on the field, you can score a goal with more attacks, it depends on your luck, bad luck is good, it's normal to attack a whole game without scoring.
But they still have a lot of chances in front of goal.
West Bromwich Albion only temporarily strengthened the defense, but their response to the Derby County attack was also a little inadequate, so Reiter, who had just come on, almost got a chance to shoot in the third minute, but unfortunately he was affected by the defenders and could not get the ball.
Undeterred, Reiter continued to play with high morale.
Reiter knows very well what he is playing for, he is a center forward, but now the coach has sent himself on the field, it must be to find an opportunity to score, so he is always looking for opportunities because he can't let the coach down.
At the same time, he has to work hard to prove himself!
When Derby County attacked, on and off the pitch, many eyes were on a few players – Cahill, Morris and Franck Ribery – who caught the attention of the vast majority.
Everyone is paying attention to the Cahill trio, because their table Xiàn has always been very good.
West Bromwich Albion did the same for their attacking defence, with Cahill, who was previously an assistant at Millwall and now the top scorer in League One and has just scored another goal, and much of their defence has been directed at Cahill, who will also be mindful of Cahill when the rest of Derby County pass the ball into the danger zone.
Few people cared about Leitt.
This season's table is very average, and as for the end of last season, it has nothing to do with West Bromwich Albion, and their impression of Reiter is, "This is a very good young centre-forward. ”
And that's all.
They don't care much about Reiter, so the defense is also a lot looser, and in their opinion, Derby County sent Reiter on the field, tactically speaking, to send a high striker to attract the defense.
So their defensive focus remains on Cahill.
Reiter has to face a lot less defensive pressure, but if you want to score a goal, you still have to look for opportunities, Reiter has been paying attention to the team's attack, he knows that opportunities are not easy to come by for him, and he must not miss the opportunity!
Derby's attack has always revolved around two points, one is Morris and the other is Ribery, and Ribery was quite active in this game, so many times, he became the core of the team's rhythm.
When the ball gets to his left, he becomes the player who moves the tempo, deciding whether to dribble or pass, whether to pass the ball or how to pass it.
Surely, Ribery's technique goes without saying.
At the moment, Ribery is the best player in the field, good at breaking, good at judging and good at passing. He's feeling excited right now and he's happy with the feeling of the game. Because the coach values him very much, his performance is very good, and he knows that he needs to take responsibility.
This time, Ribery did not choose to break through again when facing the defense, but passed the ball out.
When he did so, the West Bromwich Albion players breathed a sigh of relief, as did the West Bromwich Albion fans in the stands, and now they were a little worried about the Scarface's breakthrough.
But soon football reached Ribery's favorite.
This time, Ribery didn't choose to pass the ball again, he made a move to pass to Morris. This caused the defenders in front of him to go off the centre, and Ribery took advantage of the opportunity to add the ball from his flank.
He walked straight past the other side!
There was an immediate cheer from the Derby fans in the stands, they still have a little bit of a liking for Ribery, they thought Ribery had been wasting his chances, but now they don't worry about it and start to appreciate Ribery's football, which is an art to them.
I have to say that traditional football in England really has no aesthetic sense at all, and there are only a few players with good skills. Most of them still rely on the body and winning, and Ribery also relies on degree, but more on technique.
His football is really eye-catching.
At the same time, his football is full of practicality, like the current West Bromwich Albion player who has been passed. When he wanted to turn around and chase back, he had already been pulled down several positions, and it was impossible for him to catch up with Ribery if he turned around and added it again.
With Ribery's breakthrough, Derby's overall formation progressed faster.
West Bromwich Albion's defenders were a little panicked. They rushed over to defend, and on the left, they didn't care much about the defensive formation. Matieu-Louis Jane and wait-Muslims pounced together.
Ribery didn't continue to dribble the ball.
In the face of two people's defense, it was still very difficult to continue to break through, and he chose to pass the ball to the open position, and in the gap behind Matiyu Luis Jean, there was Morris!
"Maurice! He followed! Alfi let out a cry of joy.
The decibels of the pitch suddenly rose by a quarter!
Among them, the West Bromwich Albion fans all exclaimed, and under their exclamations, Morris had already raised his foot to catch the ball.
Matieu-Louis Jane hurriedly turned back to defend Morris.
But he turned around and defended again after all, it was a little slow, Morris had already taken the opportunity to stop the ball, glanced in the direction of the penalty area, and directly got up and passed the ball high.
"Look at this pass"
Alf's voice carried a long trail, and the shouts of the entire stadium rose a section again.
With the sound of the tail, everyone followed the direction of the football and looked into the penalty area, where a tall player stood out.
It's Bolton-Reiter!
Alfi instantly shouted, "Good chance! LITT—"
LTECH has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time!
Watching the football fly towards this side, Reiter was suddenly excited, but he suppressed the excitement in his heart, and while running forward with his legs, he tried to calm down and judge the landing point, while squeezing the position with the opposing defender.
After the ball had fallen to almost a certain position, Reiter took a hard step forward and jumped on the spot.
He's staring at football!
The sounds of the pitch filled his eardrums and filled his heart, but his brain was so calm that he jumped into the air with his arms outstretched, keeping his balance while glancing at the goal out of the corner of his eye.
Instantly, his head shook forward!
"Let's go inside!"
"Bang!"
With a muffled ringing in his ears, the ball instantly changed direction and rushed towards the West Bromwich Albion goal.
At the moment of falling, Reiter swept the opposing goalkeeper to save.
Before he could think of anything, Pride Stadium was already filled with cheers, and the cheers of the fans had already told Rett -
The ball went in!!
“gooooooooooa1!!! The ball went in!! Burton—"
"-LEE-"
The cheers resounded throughout the stadium, and in the cheers of the fans, Alfi excitedly shouted, "Leiter! The ball is in! 2:o! Reiter, who had just come on the pitch, scored his second goal for Derby County! ”
"Well done, a header!"
'It was Reiter's second goal of the season for Derby County, and he proved his quality with his goal and repaid the manager's trust in him, so I'm sorry, just now. I'm still questioning Wansheng's substitution, but this goal proves that the substitution adjustment is quite sensible."
Having said that, there was no shyness in Alfi's mouth, only excitement.
More importantly, Derby County scored!
After the goal, Reiter could no longer suppress his excitement, he hugged and celebrated with each of his teammates who rushed over, and also hugged Morris who assisted, making Morris look quite wolf, causing others to laugh.
At the same time. The reporters in the media gallery were silent.
It suddenly occurred to them that this tall young centre-forward also seemed to be a genius, he was only 2o years old, but he was already able to play in League One and scored regularly.
After all, there are a lot of geniuses in Derbyshire.
By the way, add Alfred, who is now sitting alone in the backcourt
As a result, they saw that the eyes of the Derby County dugout were more complicated
After Derby County celebrated the goal, the game resumed.
West Bromwich Albion boss Megson's jay-loud shouting for everyone to pay attention to the defence was well aware that Derby County must not be allowed to score again. Otherwise, the game will end early.
So for the rest of the day, West Bromwich Albion were very close to the goalkeeper, and under this tight defense, Derby County could not find any better chances. The first half also ended 2:o.
Both teams went into halftime.
The West Bromwich Albion players hurried back to the dressing room, having just experienced a terrible first half and now wanting to go back and rest, otherwise they don't know if they will have the confidence to continue playing.
They all want the manager to do some coaching of the game. Otherwise, if the team continues to play like this, it is really impossible to win.
The team's head coach Maggson did not disappoint them.
"It doesn't matter. I've found a weakness in their defense! "McGson's opening remarks were morale-boosting.
In fact, he did.
McGson's age is not young, but in reality, he has no experience as a head coach, but after so many years as an assistant coach and a former professional player, his tactical vision is not bad.
In the first half, he watched the Derby defence for a long time and came to some conclusions, the most important of which was the weakness of the way Derby defended - they were dense in midfield but very empty at the back.
So he knew what to do.
"We don't need to play short passes, we don't need to use the combination to break through the defense, in the second half we just need to play defensive counterattacks, do a good job of defense, and look for opportunities to pass the ball to the front"
McGson looked at Lee Haggs and Jemme Defoe and said, "You have to pay more attention to the counter-attacking runs, look for opportunities to counter-offside, and go straight to their half for a good chance to score!" ”
Lee Haggs and Jermay Defoe looked at each other and understood what the coach meant, which was to let them play defensive counter-attacks and go straight to the long pass.
At the same time, they have a sense of enlightenment.
In the playing field, they still can't see it, they just feel that Derby's defense is very tight, and now when they hear the manager say this, they remember that the opponent's defense of their backfield is very empty!
It's easy!
No matter which team in England is no stranger to long passes, defending and counterattacking, using anti-offside positions to find opportunities to break directly into the opponent's penalty area, this is the 'popular' specialty.
It turns out that Derbyshire's weakness is here!
Listening to the words of head coach McGson, West Bromwich Albion felt very excited, because they found hope of winning the game again, and the method is very simple, as long as they pay attention to the defense, get the ball and pass directly to the front, let their team's strikers chase the ball and find opportunities.
And when you think about it, it seems like the best way to deal with Derbyshire!
Meanwhile, in the home dressing room, Wan Sheng was also admonishing the players, talking about the possible tactical changes that West Bromwich Albion might make, "They are likely to increase the number of long balls up front. ”
"But we don't need to change formations."
Wan Sheng said seriously, "We have two goal advantages, and I also hope that you will try your best to adapt to this kind of defense in the game, because we still have to make some targeted defensive tactical adjustments in the future, and we need everyone to adapt." ”
"It's a challenge. They will attack our weaknesses, but I have confidence in you! ”
"But I would like to emphasize a few points"
Next, Wan Sheng carefully told every player what to do when he got to the game, especially the defensive players, since he knew that the opponent was going to increase the long pass, he naturally had to think of some ways to deal with it, especially now that the central defender is only Alfred.
Wan Sheng didn't plan to increase the number of personnel, he just asked Ferdinnan to stand a little further back and told the defenders to use more to create offside.
It's dangerous, it's like a gamble.
If the bet is lost, the team will be scored by the opponent if the team table is not good, but with two goal advantages in hand, Derby County have enough chips to bet.
They can afford to lose!
Not to mention
Wan Sheng raised his hand, waved his fist and shouted, "In this game, we want to score goals against them!" We play attacking football, no matter how much we defend, there will always be holes at the back, but as long as we score more goals than them, we will win the game! ”
"Do you all understand!?"
Everyone looked at each other, and they were all aroused, and they all shouted.
"Got it!"
"Don't worry, boss! We'll do it well! ”
"Just wait to win!"
"We're going to get their goal down!"
Dia Marres stood behind Wan Sheng, and when he saw the scene in the dressing room, he was a little worried about West Bromwich Albion's goal, he didn't believe that West Bromwich Albion's 'loyalist' would be Wan Sheng's opponent -
