Fox in the Penalty Area
v1 Chapter 221: Dad, I choose
Chapter 1894 Dad, I chose
The Pirates of Madrid used a high press to press the Catalan team in the final, which was obvious to everyone soon after the game started.
If we say that the one-pass press after the opening may be a special design made by the head coach Parrotti for the kick-off situation.
Then when the Catalan United threw a throw-in from the sideline, the Madrid Pirates still used a one-on-one defense in the frontcourt, and senior fans can understand it more or less.
After the Catalan players threw the ball out of bounds, the Madrid Pirates sieged again.
This time, although the Catalan United finally took the football out by virtue of their excellent teamwork and personal skills, they also lost the best opportunity to attack.
When they advanced to the frontcourt, they still faced the oppression and pressing of the Madrid Pirates.
Every time a Catalan player takes the ball, one or two Madrid Pirates players will immediately go up to **** it. Even if he can't grab it, it will cause a lot of trouble for the Catalan players and make him unable to play the ball well.
The closer you get to the penalty area of the Madrid Pirates, the greater this resistance.
In this way, when they advanced to the Madrid Pirates' defensive third area, there was a pass error in the end, and the ball was cut off by the Madrid Pirates.
Then the Madrid Pirates quickly counterattacked. Tonini and Camara ran all the way in the ribs.
It's a pity that the counterattack of the Madrid Pirates was not completely successful in the end.
However, the pirate players who counterattacked and rushed up did not run back to the backcourt. Instead, they stayed in the frontcourt and implemented one-on-one defense against the Catalan players in the frontcourt.
As a team that is good at possession of the ball, Cathay-Thailand seldom make direct long passes to attack, and their goalkeepers rarely kick goal kicks with big feet.
Therefore, in the face of such high pressure from the pirates, Cathay-Thai United can't just drive to the frontcourt with a big foot.
They still have to deal with the Madrid Pirates in the midfield.
So it's back to where it was just before kick-off.
Even if the Catalan United can break through the siege and go to the frontcourt, the players of the Madrid Pirates will quickly appear next to each of their players with the ball, as if they can teleport.
If they can grab it, the Madrid Pirates will directly launch a quick counterattack, and they will not entangle with the Catalan United in the backcourt at all.
If you can't grab it, it can also force Catalan to not be able to play high-quality offense.

"Parotti's move is bold!"
Li Ziqiang, who was in the stands, watched this scene condescendingly and said with emotion.
"Perhaps there is no other choice." Hu Lixin said beside him.
"Actually, the situation of the Madrid Pirates is much better now than in the second round of the semi-finals. At least there is no need to adopt such an aggressive high-position press. This is the opening game, which requires a lot of physical fitness..." Li Ziqiang shook his head.

In front of the coaching bench of the Catalan United, Vicente got up and walked to the sidelines, and then took the opportunity of the dead ball to gesture to the Catalan players on the field, telling them not to panic, to run more actively and pass the pass. The speed of the ball is increased a little bit.
After doing all this, he returned to the coaching bench, sat down and unscrewed a bottle of water, and said to his assistant coach: "It seems that we are not the only ones who have learned the experience of the Ruhr Rhein, but Parotti is also included."
"Indeed, their opening strategy is exactly the same as that of Ruhr Rhine..."
Vicente took a sip of water and said: "This is very dangerous for us, but it also means a huge opportunity. Parotti hopes to use high pressure to do both defense and offense at the same time, but the team's formation must be different when attacking. It’s hard to juxtapose widening and shrinking defensively. As long as we can show them that this high pressing is useless, they will be discouraged. Of course, the best thing is that we can use the space behind them to score goals.”
After speaking, he screwed on the cap of the water bottle again, sat on the chair in the coach's bench, and continued to watch the game intently.

The game lasted 12 minutes. During most of this time, the Catalan United were in possession of the ball, passing back and forth, and the Madrid Pirates players ran after the football.
It may seem like an amateurish approach, but it works out well.
Under the pressure of the Madrid Pirates players, the Catalan United failed to organize a too threatening attack.
On the contrary, the Madrid Pirates, who have less possession of the ball, seem to be more dominant.
Because they shoot more:
Twelve minutes into the game, the Madrid Pirates had already had three shots, although none of them were within the range of the goal frame.
The Catalan United had only one shot, which also missed.
During the opening period of the game, because of the high pressure of the Madrid Pirates, the rhythm of the two sides was actually very fast.
So there are actually a lot of mistakes. Sometimes, although the Madrid Pirates can grab it through high pressure, they will soon give up the ball because of their own active mistakes.
"It's unbelievable that the opening of this Champions League final is like this...Madrid Pirates took Catalan directly and took off. The two teams played fast, as if they were in a hurry to get off work... I I think this is a good thing for the neutral fans. But for the Chinese fans, it is like a roller coaster! The Madrid Pirates continue to play like this, be careful of being suddenly pierced by the Catalan United... Now it is obvious that Catalan United consciously looked for space behind the Pirates when they were attacking... Just now Kabanka's through ball was slightly widened, otherwise Lima would have received it."
He Feng, who explained the final on the spot, said so.
Just as we were talking, Cathay-Thai United organized an attack from the backcourt.
When advancing to the midfield, the team captain and midfield commander Gaspar Rosas took the ball and was blocked by Vukovic.
He followed the way he used to play, trying to get rid of Vukovic by spinning in circles.
At first he did circle Vukovic behind him.
But when he turned around, he found that Di Kunzo was right in front of him!
As soon as he stretched out his foot, he poked the ball off his foot!
Then Di Kunzo quickly passed Rosas again and caught up with the football.
Looking up, there is a huge space between the two Catalan central defenders!
And Hu Lai is inserting obliquely into that gap!
So he pushed the football over without hesitation!
"Di Kunzo! Through! Chance! Holly!"
He Feng on the commentary seat let out a loud roar.
The Madrid Pirates fans in the stands were also cheering.
The Catalan fans booed desperately.
Amidst the cheers and boos, Hou Lai led the football into the penalty area, and then faced the attacking Catalan goalkeeper Tone Schulman with his foot!
The football rolled from Schulman's armpit!
Then across the turf in the penalty area, cross the goal line, and roll into the net!
"My God! Thirteen minutes into the game, Hu Lai scored a goal! This is Hu Lai's second shot in this game, and also the first shot that hit the goal frame! It's a goal!" He Feng raised his arms call.
"HUUUUUUUUUGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!" the Spanish commentator Sanchez looked up to the sky and shouted. "GOOOOOOOOOOL! Huh! Huh! Rai! He opened the scoring for the Pirates of Madrid! This is his 21st goal in the Champions League this season! Terrible! This scoring ability! Unique in history!"
The sky above the Iron Dome seems to have set off a huge wave.
The momentum created by nearly half of the Pirates fans in the stands completely suppressed the equal number of Catalan fans.
Many of the latter held their heads in their hands and stared at the court dumbfounded, unable to speak.
After the goal, Hou Lai took the lead and ran to the corner flag area, preparing to make his signature celebration.
The Catalan players ran to the referee and complained that Hou Lai had just been offside - they believed that at the moment of Di Kunzo's pass, Hou Lai just ran across the line between the two central defenders .
Especially Paul Fortune was sure that Hu Lai was offside. Because when he saw Rosas's ball was broken and realized that he was too far away from Hu Lai and it was too late to post it, he decisively chose to press forward and make offside.
They even strongly advised the referee to watch the VAR replay.
Hou Lai and the players of the Pirates ignored the Catalan players who were besieging the referee. He took the lead and ran to the corner flag area, then jumped high and made his own celebration...
※※※
"HUUUUU!!"
At the same time that Hu Lai landed, Li Qingqing in the stands made the same celebratory action as Hu Lai, and at the same time uttered this thunderous cry with the Pirates fans at the scene.
Then she laughed heartily.
Sheilan was laughing too, and they both had a good laugh.
Hu Lixin smiled reservedly, but kept applauding his son's performance.
Li Ziqiang looked away from the three people around him, and turned to the Spanish pirate fans around him.
They were also cheering, and many others were chanting Hu Lai's name.
Not "Hu", but:
"Woo! Lay! Hu! Lay! Hu! Lay!"
Uniform and very rhythmic.
Tens of thousands of people are crazy about one person.
Speaking of which, this was the first time that Li Ziqiang watched Hu Lai's game live after he became a professional player.
I used to be his coach and watched many games on the sidelines. After many years, he came to the scene to watch Hu Lai's game again.
But everything has changed since then.
The stage has changed, the fans have changed, a lot of things have changed.
Even his own identity has changed.
Back then, when that young man had a flattering face in front of him, and his obscene and ugly smile, who would have thought that he would have such an achievement and status today?
He still remembered why he recruited Hu Lai into the school team.
Because I hope that through harsh training, I will make him retreat, and let my daughter realize that the classmate in her eyes is not a teenager who loves football at all, but just a liar who likes to brag.
His innocent and kind daughter must not be fooled by this kind of bastard!
But later, it seemed to become a prank between him and the boy. Not only did the boy persevere in his first month of training, he even had the guts to ask him for a chance to play.
In Li Ziqiang's view, this is simply a naked provocation to his own authority.
So he also set up a very, very difficult, almost unhuman test in a fit of anger.
He not only hopes to dissuade Hu Lai, but also hopes that he will make a big fool of himself in front of his daughter.
result…
In the end, who would have thought of the barb?
Li Ziqiang still remembers that Huoshaoyun was very beautiful that day, and now thinking about it, he has a very mysterious feeling:
The beautiful Huoshaoyun seemed to symbolize something, but everyone didn't realize it at the time.
The story... seems to have started from that moment on the playground of a middle school in a third-tier town in southwest China.
Li Ziqiang, who was in a trance, suddenly felt something in his heart, and he turned his head to look around.
I saw my daughter pointing at the field and smiling proudly at him:
"Dad, I chose!"
There was a smile on Li Ziqiang's serious face.

PS, you all say that I am a poisonous milk, but it turns out that I am relatively stable in Argentina. Except for the big upset in the first game, no one thought of it. The relationship between the two consecutive games and the score are guessed right. .
I like Argentina for a reason.
Different from four years ago~lightnovelpub.net~ This time Messi finally has a group of good teammates around him. They are willing to sacrifice themselves for Messi, and they are willing to work hard for Messi.
This is Messi's luck.
Such a united team, after passing the group stage, I don't think it should be a big problem to reach the final.
Although I have no basis for saying this, it is purely intuition.
But sometimes intuition is more reliable than various professional analysis...
In short, Argentina has qualified and will play Australia in the quarter-finals. Is there any suspense? It's a big gift bag!
Poland played so badly, and they were able to advance, it really all depends on the same group...
In today's four games, in the first game between Croatia and Belgium, I am cautiously optimistic that Croatia will beat Belgium by one goal.
In the second game between Canada and Morocco, I think the two teams will draw.
In the third game between Japan and Spain, Spain won by three goals and eliminated the Japanese team!
In the fourth match between Costa Rica and Germany, there is no suspense. Germany will qualify for a life-and-death battle, and they will beat Costa Rica by two goals!
