Chapter 1876 There Are More Ways

"Nice job!"

"Excellent!"

"Good job!"

Kuhn stood at the door of the locker room, high-fived the Ruhr-Rhine players one by one, and praised their performance.

When it was Janus Edman's turn to score, he gave the opponent a bear hug and slapped the opponent on the back hard.

"Beautiful shot! That's it!"

The players in the Ruhr Rhein were a little confused, thinking that they were leading...

After all the players on the field returned to the locker room, Kuhn closed the door of the locker room, turned to them and said:

"I know, we were behind in the first half. But that was what we expected. I told you about that before the game. It's nothing to say. What I want to remind you is Did you see the last few minutes of the first half? They were still attacking. In fact, at that time they could slow down and let themselves rest. But they didn’t do that. Why? They were so strong that they didn’t need to rest Is it that they don't want to rest? No, they dare not rest!"

Because Hou Lai scored twice at the end of the first half, narrowing the lead to one goal, the players of Ruhr Rhein were originally worried that they would be criticized by the head coach during the intermission.

Unexpectedly, instead of criticizing them, the head coach also talked about the pirates.

His words attracted everyone's attention, and they turned their attention to their head coach.

Kuhn continued impassionedly:

"Why don't you dare to rest? Because as I said before the game, there is one and only one way in front of them! They can't do anything except attack, dare not rest, dare not slow down. Then everyone Think about it, is there any team that can play like this for 90 minutes? No, neither can the Madrid Pirates. Even their physical energy consumption will be faster and greater. So what do we have to worry about? Continue to press high in the second half, and They attack each other and consume their physical energy at a faster rate, and they will definitely collapse before us!"

"...In the second half of the game, when we entered the opponent's 30-meter zone, Kamara and Tony Ni still had to shrink closer to the middle. When Hu was entangled by the opponent, you had to establish a connection with him ..."

After Parotti drew his desired player positions on the tactical board, he called the names of two wide players.

"At the same time, our full-backs must also actively press forward and make full use of the space left by the two of them on the wing after retracting... There must be continuity in the attack, and we must control the second point as much as possible and continue to press, otherwise it will be It's hard to really threaten their goal..."

After adjusting his tactics, Parotti looked around the locker room and said to his players:

"Our captain, Juan Ramirez, has booked a flight to Munich on May 26th, and he will join us there."

"John, you can talk about it, the boss will continue to attack in the second half."

After walking out of the locker room, Janus Edman put his arm around John Setter's shoulders and said to him.

Seth smiled: "Did you see Hu scored two goals and want to compare with him?"

In the first half, Hu Lai scored twice and Edman scored a goal. Judging from the number of goals, Edman is temporarily at a disadvantage.

Edman neither admitted nor denied: "Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

Seth put away his smile and stopped teasing Edman: "Don't worry, you will have a chance, Janus."

"John, you know, I'm ready anytime." Edman patted his chest.

Bang bang.

※※※

"Come on! Pirates come on!"

"It's only one goal away! One more goal and we can tie the total score!"

"Come on! Hu Lai! Hat trick!"

Li Qingliang and Han Shuyu, along with other Madrid Pirates fans in the stands, cheered for the Pirates players when they walked out of the tunnel and stepped onto the field.

The performance of the Madrid Pirates in the first half gave the home team fans hope.

After all, there is only one goal left now.

The Madrid Pirates scored two goals in the first half, why couldn't they also score at least two in the second half?

The Madrid Pirates will become the first team in the 33 years since the Stan Park Rangers in the 1996-1997 season to lose more than one goal in the first round of the Champions League semi-finals and still be able to reverse the comeback!

※※※

In the second half, the Madrid Pirates kicked off.

Amidst the cheers of the home fans, Hu Lai passed the football back, and then ran forward by himself.

The football took a full circle in the backcourt of the Madrid Pirates, and the Pirates players used this method to observe Ruhr Rhine's countermeasures.

Then they found the Ruhr Rhein players pounced like they did in the first half.

This can basically determine what kind of adjustments Ruhr Rhein coach Kuhn made to the players during the halftime break.

"Ruer Rhine is still pressing, the two teams are really on the hook today..."

"It's a boon for the pirates!"

"But it's also a huge hidden danger. After all, the Pirates have a lot of chances to score goals, and so does the Ruhr Rhine..."

"For the neutral fans, this is really good news! The more open the two sides play, the more goals!"

In the on-site commentary booth and the rear studio, the commentators from all over the world saw this scene and said one after another.

They stand in different positions and hold different viewpoints.

For example, the commentator on German TV criticized Kuhn's choice:

"Kuhn was a bit overwhelmed, this is the home court of the Pirates! He played against the Pirates in the first half, what was the result? The lead changed from two goals to one goal. He continued to play like this in the second half. Was the one-ball lead lost too?"

The Madrid Pirates players on the field were not polite to Ruhrlein, and they used the opportunity they pressed to push the offense up.

In the end, Hu Lai's shot went slightly wide of the post.

Although no goal was scored, the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands gave applause and cheers without hesitation.

※※※

Kuhn stood on the sidelines, hands outstretched, dissatisfied with the one offensive opportunity his team had just missed.

Seven minutes into the second half, everything was the same as in the first half, and the two sides continued to attack each other.

Others may not understand why he insisted on attacking the Madrid Pirates in the second half.

Of course he didn't want to impress the neutral fans.

He made the decision after analyzing the physical performance of both sides.

Throughout the first half, the two teams played lively and fast.

Under such circumstances, neither side's physical fitness will be very good.

During the intermission, the three physiotherapists of his team continued to massage and relax the players, so that their bodies could recover more energy as soon as possible.

He believes the same should be true for the Madrid Pirates.

After a 15-minute break and adjustment at halftime, the current physical condition of both sides is acceptable.

But it doesn't mean that you can stick to the audience.

With the decline of physical fitness in the second half, this kind of fast-paced and high-intensity confrontation is definitely impossible to continue.

Although Ruhr Rhein is still ahead by one ball, the lead of this ball is not safe.

So Kuhn hopes to be able to score another goal when the team is still physically fit.

As long as he can score another goal and expand the point difference to two goals again, he can immediately turn the team into a defensive counterattack and wait for work.

Of course, if the team fails to score first at the beginning of the second half, then at most 20 minutes later, he will also let the team switch to a defensive counterattack.

At that time, although they are only one goal ahead, the Madrid Pirates will also consume a lot of energy, and they must continue to attack. Ruhr Rhine still has a chance to succeed through a counterattack.

So the first half of the second half is key.

Ruhr Rhein continued to press and attack at a high position. On the one hand, he could score goals by himself, and on the other hand, he could also contain the attack of the Madrid Pirates.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

So when he sees his team not being able to take advantage of the opportunity, he will be very unhappy.

There will be retribution for wasting opportunities!

While Kuhn expressed his dissatisfaction, Edman, who had just missed the opportunity, put down his hands covering his head, and raised his head to the sky with a long roar.

He told John Setter before the start of the second half that he was ready.

As a result, Seth passed the football to him just now, but he knocked the football away in the penalty area.

Although there is a reason for Danny Drew's personal interference with him.

But if you don't seize the opportunity, you don't seize it.

Edman doesn't want to make excuses.

To compete with a shooter like Hu Lai, every missed opportunity is a huge waste!

"It's a pity that Edman didn't seize this opportunity! Compared with Hu, he is still a little immature in front of the goal. But he is only 20 years old, and being able to compare with Hu is enough to prove how great his future is. Already!"

The German commentator comforted Edman when he saw the annoyed Edman.

※※※

If Edman could hear the German TV commentator, then he may not be comforted.

Because the narrator said so, he still thinks that he is not as good as Hu Lai.

Being able to compare with Hu Lai is not what he wants.

All he wanted was to defeat Hu Lai.

He regards Hu Lai as an idol, but more as a target.

He is in really good form this season. Whether in the league or the Champions League, the number of goals scored has increased significantly compared to last season.

Although he is not arrogant enough to compare the total number of goals with Hu Lai-of course, this is also because Hu Lai's total number of goals is really terrifying. But he felt that he should be able to compete with Hu Lai in a game.

In the last round, he scored a goal at home, while Hu Lai failed to score a goal.

But he would not think that he had defeated Hu Lai just like that.

Because the Champions League semi-finals are two rounds.

Didn't Hu Lai score twice when he returned to the home court?

I only scored one goal in this game, and counting the goal in the first round, it was only a tie with Hu Lai.

He will continue to score goals~lightnovelpub.net~He will beat Hu Lai in the semi-finals of the Champions League.

After yelling up to the sky, Edman turned around and ran to the backcourt. At the same time, he still didn't forget to give John Seth a thumbs up for passing the ball to himself, indicating that his pass was beautiful just now.

Then he yelled, "Again, John! Again!"

※※※

PS, aha! What did I say?

England and the Netherlands are sure to win!

The United States and Wales must be equal!

Of course, the score deviates slightly from my prediction... But that's not important, the important thing is that the result is correct!

In addition, since there is a game at six o'clock today, the forecast for the update at six o'clock in the evening has been advanced to the chapter update at eight o'clock:

Argentina vs. Saudi Arabia, there is no suspense, Argentina won with three goals!

Denmark and Tunisia, draw!

Mexico and Poland, I am optimistic that Poland will win by two goals.

There was no suspense in the match between France and Australia, France won by two goals!
