When the Leeds City players returned to the dressing room, someone ripped the tape off their hands in annoyance and threw it on the floor.

Someone dropped the dry towel that was supposed to wipe them on the ground. It was drizzling in the first half, and there was not a dry spot on everyone's body.

It's okay in the game, the heat from exercise is enough for them to resist the cold.

But during the intermission, if you don't dry your body as soon as possible, you will easily catch a cold.

Wipe off the water on your body, take off your wet jersey, socks and shoes.

Then put on dry clothes so they can get enough rest.

But now the Leeds City players smashed the water towel on the ground.

This action is a good illustration of their mood at this moment.

Unwilling, angry.

Obviously they were the ones who scored the first goal in the first half, and they were the ones who took the lead. After forty-five minutes, not only did they not take the lead, they even failed to keep the score of 1:1.

This is really suffocating.

"That's it, guys!"

Head coach Tony Clark was the last to enter the locker room. After he walked in, he closed the door and said loudly to the still angry players.

"There's no point in getting angry at the shin pads or the duct tape. We made some mistakes in the first half, but it wasn't a big problem. Because you all know that's our style. There's no such thing as standing in the wrong place in this world. There is no tactical arrangement that is absolutely without weaknesses. We have our weaknesses, and the Pirates have them too."

While speaking, Clark walked in front of a 100-inch "television".

In fact, strictly speaking, this is not a TV, but a computer monitor.

At Clark's insistence, Leeds City upgraded the multimedia system in the dressing room.

He is holding a tablet computer of ordinary size in his hand, which is connected to the monitor, and all his operations on the tablet computer will be reflected on the monitor.

In the past, it was necessary to use physical magnet pieces to place and move on the real tactical board to explain the tactics to the players.

No need now, just open the corresponding program on the tablet computer in his hand, and a huge tactical board will appear on the large display connected to the tablet computer.

Clark can explain tactics to everyone by simply dragging those virtual chess pieces with his hands on the tablet.

At the same time, he can also allow the coaching staff to pre-store the opponent's tactics and formation layout, and call it up with one click, which is very convenient, greatly saving the time of "arranging troops and forming formations", and improving work efficiency.

He quickly adjusted the formation of the Madrid Pirates in the first half of the game.

This is Matt Dawn's actual formation after combining his own observations in the first half. It is different from the official formation announced by the Champions League before the game, and it is not so dogmatic.

In this formation, the Madrid Pirates play 442, Hou Lai and Di Kunzo are double forwards, but their positions are not parallel.

Hou Lai is slightly forward in the center, and Di Kunzo is in the back position on his left.

"Di Kunzo played on the left side of the game to concentrate the Pirates' attacking advantage on the left side. That's how they scored the equalizer, and it was because of Di Kunzo who suddenly caught the ball here that it led to our loss. There was a hole in the defense... We all know that the Pirates are strongest on the left wing, so most of their attacks in the first half were also launched from this side."

Following Clark's explanation, the Leeds City players in the locker room also stared intently at the electronic screen.

"The Pirates seem to have a strong pass and control overall, but they have a weakness. That is, their pass and control lacks creativity. So we can see that the Pirates rely more on Di Kunzo than Hu when they attack. .Because Di Kunzo has the ability to control the ball and dribble and attack, he can provide changes for the Pirates' pass control, and he is the engine of the Pirates' offense. Therefore, we must strengthen the defense against Di Kunzo in the second half, restricting him from taking the ball and breaking through, Don't give him any time and space to have the ball... Morikawa."

Morikawa Junpei stood up directly from his seat and looked at his boss.

"Your main task in the second half is to limit Di Kunzo, follow him, even if he enters the penalty area, you have to follow him."

Junpei Morikawa nodded vigorously: "I understand, boss!"

"Then it's offense." Clark continued to assign tasks, "The pirates will press in a high position, so we don't have to deal with them in the backcourt, and directly hit the football to the side of the frontcourt. Then remember, don't pass too complicatedly, just go straight Pound the Dragon Gate!"

Then he named Kamala, Lasky and Solberry.

Valley/span> "You are all very fast, and your speed is your advantage. When facing the pirates, don't think about using any delicate coordination to match their wits with their defense, just use your speed to tear apart Their defense. Remember what we do best and make it the best it can be!”

"Then Pete. You have to press forward as much as possible when attacking. Your role is not to pass the ball. You have to run without the ball and press into the Pirates' penalty area... Bring Ramirez in! Then Jay..."

Clark turned to Jay Adams.

"If Pete brings Ramirez into the penalty area, you must appear at the top of the free throw arc outside the penalty area. On the one hand, you are preparing for a long shot, and on the other hand, you are preparing to control the second landing point and launch a second attack directly..."

As Clark said, he swiped the chess pieces representing each player on the tablet with his hand, and all his operations would be displayed on the big screen in an intuitive way, telling the players how to move.

After laying out the specific tactics, he stood in front of the big screen, looked at his players and said, "You guys did a very good job in the first half, and I'm proud of you. The outside world always says I'm a 'crazy', 'gambler'. Outlaws'... as if I were a brainless brat. But I know I never was. Why would I bet? Because I have you. You are my biggest hole card. So many games before, today This game is the same. So like you guys have done countless times in the game, no other nonsense thoughts... When we attack, we attack! Only attack, use what we do best to beat the opponent! "

After boosting morale and letting the players off and back on the court, Clark and assistant coach Sam Randyll were the last two dragged.

Randyll looked at the rekindled players and whispered to Clark, "You didn't mention how to defend Hu."

Clarke explained: "The key to defending Hu is to contain those who can pass the ball to Hu. At present, the most threatening is Di Kunzo. As long as we can contain his performance, Hu will get a lot less chances... "

Randyll interrupted Clark: "You know that Hu is a striker who is very good at capturing opportunities. He doesn't need too many opportunities. Even if there are not many opportunities, he may still score goals..."

Clark shook his head: "You're right, Sam. So what can we do?"

Facing Clark who spread his hands and asked him back, Randyll didn't know how to answer.

"We have no way to prevent him, he is not in any tactical system." Clark shrugged. "Those idiots always like to say that Hu is not tactical, and they are half right. Hu doesn't look tactical, that is, any existing tactics can't define him. He is just a striker who puts the football in the goal. Regardless of the tactics used. What tactics, isn't the ultimate goal also to score goals?"

Sam Randyll was speechless.

Because he knew Clark was right.

After two and a half seasons of cooperation, Leeds City's coaching staff can be said to be the coaching team that knows Hu Lai best in European football, even better than the coaches of the Madrid Pirates.

It is precisely because of this understanding that Randall knew what Clark meant.

In other words, no matter whether your team adopts defensive counterattack tactics, high pressure, or pass control, whether it is 442, 433 or 352, or other tactics and formations. The ultimate goal is always to score goals, to win.

So in all tactics there must be a role in charge of scoring goals, this role can be one person or several people.

Even if it is "no striker", it does not mean that the team does not pursue goals. It's just that the task of scoring goals is handed over from the striker to the midfielder or backcourt player.

But what if there is a striker on the team who is particularly good at scoring goals?

Are you still going to play no front?

Any team needs players who can score goals~lightnovelpub.net~ No matter what tactics these teams use or what formation they are used to.

So Hu Lai can be integrated into any tactics and teams.

Therefore, it can be said that Hu Lai will not be defined by any tactical system, and there is a feeling of "jumping out of the three realms and not in the five elements".

It's just that Westerners like Randall don't understand this sentence, but they know this truth.

Seeing that the assistant coach was silent, Clark also stopped talking, but walked to the stadium outside the passage.

He's done everything he can.

What will happen in the second half, in fact, he himself has no idea.

No way, who made his opponent Hu Lai?

And as Hu Lai's head coach, he happens to know this proud disciple best.

The sharpest knife is aimed at me...
