Chapter 49: Making an offside
[In the first half of the game, Nottingham Forest's attack was obviously better than the opponent's, Fretheya's fulcrum role, Assunbaronga's flexible running position in the front, tearing a hole in the defensive line, a typical style of penetration in the middle. 】
[In contrast, the Bournemouth team that uses crosses from the wings is too weak in the attack.] Luo, who shone in the previous game, did not perform much in the first half. 】
[It's also about tactics.] Nottingham Forest's central defence was rather tenacious, with Bournemouth having to exploit wide attacks. But headers aren't Rowe's strong suit, and Kermogant is well limited. If you want to score in the second half, we'll see how you adjust in the second half. 】
Heading into the break, the on-site commentator gave the right advice that it would be difficult for Bournemouth to threaten the goal with crosses from the back post.
Unless it's like the opponent, to strengthen the penetration in the middle, or to strengthen the ability of the forward line to fight for the top.
"O'Kane, don't you even have the strength to deal with an old fellow?"
Eddie Howe was in the dressing room and did not hesitate to point out the defensive problems of the players. For players with good passing and vision, it is not enough to not lose position, first of all, it is better to make sure that he cannot easily take the ball, and it is better to defend closely.
O'Kane was out of breath, but admitted that he didn't keep up with the ball carrier defensively, saying, "My problem, but that old guy is too good in physical strength." ”
"It's not that he has good physical strength, it's that he barely participated in the first half, and those defensive jobs were handed over to Antonio, the left wing-back."
The assistant coach took the notebook and analyzed: "I estimate that in the second half, the opposite side should adopt a counter-defensive counterattack strategy." Reid was the first point on the counter-attack, concentrating on the attack, and the midfielders shared the defense for him. ”
Eddie Howe pondered that the opponent's ability to fight is no worse than his own team, and now that he is one goal behind, they can recycle the defense line and attract the opponent to attack, then there must be a huge gap in their own backline.
They have seen the pace of Asembarolonga, and once he is used as a counter-attacking point, then their own backline will definitely be overwhelmed.
"Boss, I suggest strengthening the front's top advantage."
Assistant coach Tyndal said: "Nowadays we don't have a lot of advantages on the wings and in the middle, and it's hard to penetrate. Antonio will be depleted in the second half and will be substituted and then the wing advantage will return to us. ”
In the first half, the two sides could not give up an inch on the wings.
Wilson and Antonio often play on the wings, but the latter has more defensive responsibilities.
Once he is out of the game and Wilson has no opponents on the flanks and can press forward boldly, then there will be good opportunities in the middle.
If that's going to happen, then Rossi has to be substituted for a high point.
After thinking for a moment, Eddie Howe shook his head and denied: "The air defense capability of the opposite side is not weak, and replacing two high school forwards will undoubtedly set our tactics to death on the long pass rush, and it is easier to defend on the opposite side." ”
His concerns are all reasonable, a single offensive mode, easy to defend.
And the high point in the team is not a center that is completely dominant in the top fight, and the effect is not great.
"Luo, in the second half you run a little more, pull out the gaps, and create opportunities for your teammates who are plugged in in the middle. You ran too little in the first half. ”
This tactic is the same tactic used in the EFL Cup in midweek, making full use of lateral space to pull the opposition defence out of the gap, and there are opportunities to shoot from the edge of the penalty area.
"As long as I get the ball forward, I can run out of position." Rossi said confidently.
Eddie Howe waited for this sentence, and hurriedly drew an offensive line on the tactical board, saying: "In the second half, we also used the middle to penetrate, and when Ronaldo and Harry got the ball, you have to retreat here, and then run to the side to create forward opportunities for Comogante in the middle." ”
"Then the two wings, as far apart as possible, so that they don't gather in the middle. If they go wide, they can try to cut inside more and shoot long. ”
As soon as the tactics were explained, the staff informed them to prepare for the game, and Eddie Howe said: "We are one goal behind, there is no way back, we must press forward boldly." ”
"Yes!"
In the second half, Bournemouth were the first to enter the stadium to meet the shouts of the fans.
[I don't know if the head coaches of both sides want to make substitutions. With that in mind, Bournemouth should make changes up front. Luo's state today doesn't seem to be very ideal. 】
[In the given running distance today, Luo only has a running distance of one kilometer, which is only higher than the goalkeepers of both sides. 】
The second half is served by the away team.
As soon as the whistle blew, the Bournemouth players collectively pressed up.
Nottingham Forest took a one-goal lead and headed the ball in their own half in search of an opportunity.
Even if they concede a goal, they can instantly flatten the formation and prevent a breakthrough on both sides.
Harry Arte organized the team's attack in the first half, which was difficult to penetrate, and at the beginning of the second half, Antonio was replaced on the opposite side, and the substitute Osborne had a balanced attack and defense at both ends of the pitch, which could strengthen the defense on the wing.
The ball came to Wilson's feet.
In the first half, he and Antonio were on par on the wings, and now that he was replaced by Osborne, who was more solid defensively, Wilson had to try the opponent's quality first.
Ooh!
There was a low boo in the stadium.
Wilson couldn't completely shake off the defense when he broke through, and was tackled by a chasing Osborne, destroying the ball.
Drip!
Is it a foul, or is it a touchline ball?
The referee raises one arm up and palms forward to award an indirect free kick.
It was an opportunity for Bournemouth to step up and get involved in attack.
In terms of defensive heights, Nottingham Forest are tall enough, with both centre-backs over 185cm tall and tactics in defending indirect free-kicks.
The defenders all stand outside the penalty line as the standard, almost in unison with each other.
After Harry set the ball, he glanced at the penalty area, then ran and passed.
The ball was 35 metres from goal and Harry's shot was high and fast and landed directly in the box.
And just as the attacker passed the ball, the Nottingham Forest players outside the penalty area line started collectively and ran towards the outside of the big penalty area.
In the box, three or four Bournemouth players rushed in without interference.
Hey, what about people?
The ball landed in front of Komogante, who unloaded the ball and turned to hit the goal, but no one returned.
At this time, the linesman had already raised the flag and signaled that the attacker was offside.
Comogante threw his fist angrily, completely teased by his opponent.
The well-set set-piece tactics were not only useless, but became a joke, and at this time, there was a boo at home.
Nottingham Forest's head coach Pierce calmly walked back to the rest area, picked up mineral water and drank it, and then crossed Erlang's legs and watched the game calmly.
Although the team has a high point, but in terms of defending set-pieces, it is always impossible to concentrate and is easy to lose the ball, so before the game, Pierce formulated this offside tactic.
Five minutes later, Wilson secured another set-piece for his side, and this time the Nottingham Forest players were once again at the edge of the box.
In order not to step into the offside zone, the Bournemouth players had to walk outside the penalty area as well.
Away from goal, the threat increases dramatically.
Eddie Howe crossed his waist with one hand on his waist and commanded as he shouted, telling his players to use the cover to cut forward.
But they didn't concentrate on training, they played on the spot, it was all about the players' ability to read the game.
Bang!
Once again, Harry crossed the ball into the box.
This time, Stanislas wanted to cover for Comogante, but the coordination was a bit stiff and he missed the opportunity to cut forward.
After the opponent's lift, when he stepped forward again, he was already stepping into the offside trap.
Seeing the linesman raise the flag in his hand, Comogant gave up running and looked up to the sky and sighed.
"It's not over, it's not over yet."
At this moment, the goalkeeper of the Nottingham Forest team anxiously shouted at the player, because he saw a white shadow at the back point, which was quickly inserted.
Black hair, it's Rosie.
"Offside, offside!"
The goalkeeper signaled to the linesman, but he actually didn't know whether Rossi, who was inserted in front, was offside.
The teammates didn't defend back, so they could only interfere first.
However, when Rossi touched the ball, the linesman lowered the flag.
No offside!
Rossi was not offside.
Nottingham Forest failed to create an offside position.
The home fans behind the goal were once again nervous.
[Rossi adjusted his pace again, hit the goal, and the ball went in!] 】
[At this time, the players of the Nottingham Forest team, like the referee, protested that the goal was offside. 】
[Whether there is an offside position, see how the referee decides.] 】
[We see that Rossi is already waving his fist in celebration.] He pointed to his eyes and shook his head. The meaning is to say, believe me, there is no offside in this goal. 】
