Chapter 0454, I want Kanute!
At the Luis II Stadium, Yunsheng met Sevilla coach Jimenez.
The young manager, a former defender for Sevilla, became manager at the end of 2007. In two years, he brought the crumbling team back to the top four in the league and back to the Champions League, and was the leader of this Sevilla team.
"Coach Jimenez, welcome to Monaco." Yun Sheng stepped forward to shake his hand in a friendly manner.
Jimenez was also very polite, he said a few polite words, and then looked Yun Sheng in front of him up and down: "Coach Yun Sheng, I didn't expect you to be younger than I thought." It's only two years to win five championships, and you're amazing. ”
Yun Sheng smiled slightly: "It's just luck, it's nothing." ”
"Hopefully it's going to be a good game today."
"It must be, see you in a moment!"
The players warmed up on the pitch and the managers of both teams watched from the sidelines. Observe both your own players and the opposing team's players.
In the past summer, Sevilla have not made much moves, bringing in three players this season, buying right-back Alexis Sanchez for €4 million, Jokola for 10 million euros from Tottenham, and Negredo for 15 million euros from Real Madrid.
So far this season, Negredo has replaced the injured Fabiano, and the two have formed a new tactical style of playing with Canoute.
Sevilla's tradition has always been fluid attacking and quick transitions, especially with Keylor Navas and Capel on the flanks, who were the strongest breaking points on the counter-attack.
Yun Sheng looked at the Sevilla players on the field and thought about the arrangement of the game.
It seems that the situation of Sevilla in this game is similar to what he expected, the first half remained stable, and the victory or defeat is likely to be decided in the second half.
In the locker room, Yun Sheng looked at the players present and arranged tactics.
"Guys, we've been telling you for a long time about the tactical style of play in this game, and from the fact that we just got the starting list for Sevilla, they are exactly what we expected – full of players!"
"That's good news for us. They were also in full force in the weekend game a few days ago, winning a La Liga game. They have had a poor start to the season in the league and they will have to fight for every game they have to play. As a result, the physical fitness of their players will be greatly affected, coupled with their lack of bench depth, forcing the main force in this game, and the physical reserves must be problematic. They were able to hold on in the first half, and in the second half they were sure to show their flaws. ”
"I ask you to defend solidly in the first half, don't press it easily, wait for work, wait for them to have physical problems in the second half, and then suddenly use a cold arrow, a fatal blow!"
Yunsheng's deployment was very decisive, the tactical thinking was clear, and the Monaco players nodded one after another.
At this time, in the away team's dressing room, Jimenez was also telling the players: "In this game, we must strive to score more goals in the first half to seal the win, if we can't win them in the first half, then in the second half we will focus on stability, if it really can't, it is acceptable to take away a point from away." ”
Both teams came to the pitch with their own minds in mind, waiting for the game to begin.
"The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!"
"Sevilla kicked off first, and after a few passes, the ball got to the corner of the Monaco penalty area!"
'Canoute and Negredo were both operating in the Monaco penalty area, and several Monaco defenders also shrunk their defence to prevent them from receiving the ball easily. Both centre-forwards are good at headers and spot-taking, and are important attacking points for Sevilla. ”
'Keylor Navas moved along the flanks with the ball, several of Monaco's midfielders also retreated, with Claude Makelele and Flamini forming a double midfield position to help defence. Even Ljungberg frequently retreated to the flanks and moved the defensive line to the front. ”
"Capel forced a cross! The ball is on to Kanute! Senderos scrambled to head out of the box! ”
"Sevilla's attack is here again! This time it's Negredo's penalty area for a point! Kompany blocks the ball with his body! Hildebrand is easy to hold! ”
'In the first 10 minutes of the game, Sevilla FC were very aggressive, they had three shots on goal and they were all dangerous!
Taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity, Kompany asked Senderos: "These two forwards, frequent cross-positioning, we have to mark people in the area." ”
Senderos nodded: "That's right, if they're outside the penalty area, give it to Makelele and them, and if they get into the box, we'll go up and them!" ”
"That's it! Pick one of these two guys. ”
"I want Canute!"
"Oh? Are you sure? ”
"I'm sure, I like this big guy and I'm going to follow him!"
"Okay, let's divide labor and cooperate, and if there is a problem, we will cooperate with each other."
In a few words, the two completed the division of labor.
But Kompany was slightly worried.
In fact, he personally believes that Canute should be kept to himself and Senderos should be left to guard Negredo.
At 1.85 meters tall, Negredo has excellent skills, especially in front of the penalty area, and is very threatening. However, Senderos's top tackles and body are better than him, and Negredo is better to press.
But Kanute is different, this 1.92 meter African big man, with a strong impact, whether it is a header or a burst, he is a top-notch existence.
Looking at the big man, Kompany always thinks of the Chelsea Ivory Coast centre-forward, and they have a lot in common.
Because of this, Kompany is a little uncertain about Senderos' defense of Kanoute.
He won't have any more shadows in his heart......
Soon, though, Kompany realized that his fears were unfounded.
After just grabbing a header in front of Canoute, Senderos grabbed the ball in front of Canute again and cut off the ball, so that Sevilla's attack came to an abrupt end, and then his big kick kicked off, giving Saviola a chance to counterattack, but unfortunately the final shot grazed the post, which was very regrettable.
Ten minutes later, it was another cross from the wing, and Capel's pass flew precisely into the Monaco penalty area to find the highest point of Canoute, and at this time, Senderos, who was marking him, jumped up at the same time, cleared the header, and the two bodies collided together, and in the end neither of them touched the ball.
Hildebrand stepped out to hold on to the ball and defused another threatening attack.
Kanute, who got up from the ground, covered his head, feeling a little dazed. The two bumped into each other just now, and although it wasn't too serious, it was also buzzing.
But when he looked back, Senderos was already standing behind him, with a hideous face and ready to go!
