Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 877: The Heart of the Lion King

In the locker room, the players of the Forest team sat on the bench to rest. They didn't play well in the second half of the first half and everyone didn't want to chat and laugh. For a while, there was only a heavy gasp in the locker room.

Dunn did not speak either. He turned his back to everyone, looking at the tactical board and fell into contemplation.

He used the tactical board as the Bernabéu stadium and replayed the first half on it.

Real Madrid's offensive level is very strong, and the coherence of the striker, the forward line and the back line is very good. Dunn had this feeling when he watched the game in the first half-after Real Madrid players competed for the first place, the second place was within their range, while Nottingham Forest was the opposite. They could compete. The first landing point, but there is no way to control the second landing point, which led to Real Madrid's offensive wave after wave, endless, and the forest team's offense is more like a hammer sale.

This is determined by the quality of the midfield and the team's tactics.

On the whole, Real Madrid is indeed better than Nottingham Forest. After the dark years of the previous years, the re-emerged Real Madrid finally found the way they are most familiar and good at.

So is there any way to crack it?

Continue to attack? No, it must be defensive. Defense is the basis of everything. If the defense is not good, it will be useless to score more goals in front. The morale improvement of scoring a goal is far less than the morale damage of losing a goal.

Blindly defensive is no good. After all, if they put all their energy on defense, they can withstand Real Madrid's offense, but if they can't score, as time goes by, the situation will only become more and more favorable to the home team Real Madrid.

In fact, he thought of a way, although this method is likely to be used by the outside world as a reason to attack him-if he eventually loses the game, the pressure he will bear is not as simple as losing the championship. Those who criticize him The voice of "losing the game and being embarrassed" will surely be overwhelming.

But he doesn't care what the outside world thinks of him, because his reputation has long been bad enough.

He turned around and looked at his men.

"Let's adjust a little in the second half." He said, and immediately attracted everyone's attention and attention. Their eyes revealed trust and security from the heart. Yes, they trust their boss so much, as long as he is still there, it means it’s no big deal, no problem, he always has a way to get us out of trouble. After so many years, we have long been accustomed to looking at the head when a crisis arises and see what he will say.

"After the first half, I think you all confirmed one thing-Real Madrid's strength is much higher than we thought." He saw a trace of dissatisfaction in the eyes of some players, so he Smiled and said: "Don't deny it. Haven't you noticed the gap after forty-five minutes of playing?"

Those uncomfortable eyes soon dimmed, thinking this was really a morale and fighting spirit thing, but they couldn't help it. Your own midfielder can only intercept and destroy, but the opponent's midfielder can organize and build. Blindly damage is always lower than construction.

"It is now obvious that our midfielder is better at breaking interceptions than organizing offenses. This is our advantage, and Real Madrid doesn't have it. I don't think there is anything wrong with this." Dunn shook his head. "And I don't think this is a weakness. In fact, this is an advantage. Since it is an advantage, we must use it to the extreme."

"First of all, Real Madrid's offense is mostly ground cooperation, and short passes are mostly short passes, and the midfielders are mostly triangular passes. Ribery is their core figure and many **** will pass through his feet."

Dunn began to draw Real Madrid's lineup on the tactical board. On the circle representing Ribery, he repeatedly traced several strokes, making this circle extraordinarily thick and black and protruding from other circles.

"What I want to say next I hope everyone will remember and do the same on the court." Dunn poked the tactical board with the tip of his pen. "Whether it is against Ribery or other people, except for the dangerous area, I hope Your actions should be rougher, don't be afraid of fouls. Kick their ankles."

Some of the players whistled.

"Kick your ankle, push your thigh, pull your jersey...whatever you do, don't let them take the ball comfortably." Dunn hit the palm of his hand. "Completely disrupting the rhythm of Real Madrid's game, so that they do not adapt to our style of play!"

"It just destroyed their defense, what about the offense, boss?" Mitchell asked. He is a center forward, and he is more concerned about how to score the opponent's goal than defense.

"Don't worry, Aaron. I'll talk about it right away. Use fouls and rough moves to disrupt their rhythm. When their midfielder gets stuck in a quagmire, it's our midfielder's turn to control the situation. We still Stick to our wing tactics. The full back continues to move forward."

In fact, in the final analysis, the midfield is the key to everything. The midfielder lost control. No matter how sharp the wing and the striker were, it was useless. It was like a tank running out of fuel, which could only be built as a turret on the spot and be beaten by people. Controlling the midfield, then whether it is defense or offense, it is very easy. There is not much pressure on defense, and there are more ways to attack...

"Nuri." Tang En handed Sha Xin's name, and Sha Xin stood up and looked at him. "You will be more active in the second half, but not as the core of the organization, but to attract the opponent's defensive players...especially Diarra's attention."

Sha Xin knew what Dunn was going to do, he nodded: "Okay, boss."

Seeing that he understood, Dunn turned to Gago: "Fernando, you will be responsible for organizing our offense in the second half."

Gago raised his head and met his gaze.

He received very limited boos in the first half, and Real Madrid fans did not specifically target him. However, his performance in the first half was also dim, and Real Madrid fans are not worthy of booing for such a person.

"Anger will attract the opponent's defensive attention for you. We give you the ball and you decide the team's offensive style. Is there a problem?"

Gago did not nod as readily as Shaheen and said, "Okay, boss."

He was stunned.

"You usually do this, why are you hesitating now?" Dunn asked.

"Uh, no problem, I have no problem, boss." Gago replied quickly.

Dunn glanced at him, then turned to Wood.

"George, protect him." For Wood, Dunn's order was much simpler.

Then Dunn said to the team: "Try to be as concise as possible when attacking. I don't want to see our people in front of the opponent's goal and cross the air goal. Don't forget our Nottingham Forest tradition, don't go Learn that flashy stuff. It’s not a good idea to pass football to the goal..."

"Then, let's talk about other things." Dunn stared at everyone. "This is a very difficult game, because this is the final. No one should have the idea of ​​fluke. If you don't fight, then the victory must not belong to us."

Dunn pointed to everyone: "We have forty-five minutes left. I don’t know what adjustments Real Madrid will make. But one thing I’m sure of is that they will never be reconciled to a tie here. This stadium is one for us. To be an ordinary final venue, but for Real Madrid, the home court also means huge pressure. As long as we can create enough trouble for them, their mentality will go wrong. That was our opportunity at that time, we must seize it! Make them more impatient!"

Seeing Pepe's eager expression, he glared at him: "Right, Pepe. The goal in the first half..."

Hearing him say this, Pepe's eyebrows drooped immediately. The expression also turned cloudy.

"You already have a yellow card on you now. You'd better be honest in the second half. Don't do things like kicking your ankle. I don't care what your grudges are with Ribery, I just want you to remember that this is the final!"

Pepe nodded quickly.

Dunn clapped his hands: "Guys, this is the last game. We have worked hard for so long this season and have won two championships. There is no reason to stumble on this last championship. Do you think?"

Everyone nodded in response: "Yes!"

"I don't want to mention that word, but that word must have been in your mind countless times now. Each of you knows what our goal is, right?"

"Yes!" The voices in unison replied louder.

"The opportunity is here, what reason do we have to let it go? At Real Madrid's home court, grab the championship back for me!"

"Grab it back!!"

The image of Nottingham Forest is inseparable from the robbers. The media always advertise that they are the inheritors of Robin Hood, and those who hate them will angrily call them "a group of robbers", using shameless and passive conservative football. Grabbed the champion who originally belonged to the victim. For example, an Argentine football celebrity said before the game-"A group of thieves entered the final."

Dunn doesn't think these titles are bad, on the contrary, he likes others calling them that way. Because they were clamoring that Nottingham Forest was a "robber" or "thief", they couldn't hide their panic. Even if they tried to make a gesture of "disdain", that kind of fear had already deepened into their bones, but they didn't realize it.

But it doesn't matter, Dunn will soon make them realize why they hate Nottingham Forest so much-there are only a few championships each year, but there are many ambitious teams that want to win. But when the Nottingham Forest appeared, European football, which was originally stagnant, seemed to be a **** storm. Nottingham Forest rose to the West as a grassroots, and quickly swept England and the European continent. When they were at their peak, their names were synonymous with champions. Now, after a few years of silence, Nottingham Forest has come back under the leadership of Dunn, and the goal is still the championship.

Those people were afraid, because Nottingham Forest wanted them to get back what belonged to the Forest team-the championship.

When the team played, Dunn stopped Gago. There are some things he has to say to the Argentine alone.

The other teammates have already ran out. Dunn accompanied Gago to the back. While walking outside, he said to him: "Fernando, I don’t care what you think. Now your task is very simple, just find a way to The football is passed to our players. Your position is farther back than Nourie, but higher than George. So don't be afraid of losing the ball. The opponent's defensive attention must be at Nourie at the beginning."

Gago nodded frequently. He couldn't speak at this moment. The boss spoke extremely fast, his voice was loud, and the scene was very noisy. Even if he wanted to say anything, he would probably be suppressed by the boss's voice.

"I want you to ambush behind Nouri and pass as many penetrating **** as possible. Real Madrid's defense is not very good, they lack sufficient protection behind them. Especially the two full-backs, Ramos and Marcelo, They like assists so much. In the second half, their attack frequency will only be higher and the range will only be greater. Behind them, and the rib space between them and the central defender, you must use it."

"Pass more there, right?" Gago finally caught the opportunity to chip in.

Dunn nodded: "Yes, our two sides are there. Your pass happened to be the most awkward part of their defense. Ramos and Marcelo like assists. You can use behind them..."

"Okay, boss. But you just said it."

"In short, your passing direction is the two sides and the ribs. Let Nuri go in the middle. Don't hold the ball too long. As a midfielder, you must be concise. If you have a chance, pass forward. Just pass back and transfer. Anyway, don’t let the football stay under your feet for too long."

"I see, boss."

Hearing these words from Dunn, Gago felt a little calmer.

"In addition, help me bring a message to George and the others." Dunn suddenly laughed. "Put Diarra close-up, grab it and launch a counterattack directly on the spot!"

Gago is not a fool, he naturally understands why. Diarra likes to dribble the ball in the midfield and has too much time with the ball. He has already seen it when he was still at Real Madrid. In most cases, this habit will not cause any major problems. On the contrary, it will make others think that this person has excellent skills and can attack and defend well.

But if you run into a team that can grab a midfielder, then he will be dead.

The ball that broke the midfielder can directly face the defense line...sometimes even directly face the goalkeeper.

Gago nodded vigorously: "I know what to do, boss."

Dunn patted him on the shoulder and pushed him out: "Go!"

Evan Daggerty suppressed the idea of ​​going to the locker room to find Dun En, his brain was still sober. Knowing that it is a taboo to enter the locker room at this time.

But he couldn't suppress his inner discomfort.

At the end of the half-time, Florentino shook hands with him, his attitude was more arrogant than when the game just started.

A few years ago, Nottingham Forest was in Europe when the gods blocked and killed the gods. When the Buddha blocked the Buddha, he would not be treated like this. Even if his team played against Real Madrid, at that time Real Madrid coach Calderon respected him very much.

Now that Real Madrid has changed the chairperson, they are pulling up again. And his team experienced a trough after Dunn's heart disease, and its influence in European football is not as good as before.

This is a very realistic world, and everyone only respects the strong.

No strength, no status.

Evan wouldn't growl loudly when he was angry, he would just find a corner where no one would say a word to sulking.

Alan stayed with him. In fact, he is also worried, what if Tony Dunn's team loses to Real Madrid? He didn't dare to ask this question, he knew Evan was getting angry. A person who usually smiles and is kind, it's really amazing to really start a fire.

It was so silent until the beginning of the second half, when Evan said to Allen beside him: "Let's go, Allen. Let's go back."

The two left the rest area and walked to the podium outside.

By the time they came here, players from both sides had already begun to play one after another. Florentino's position is empty.

Until the start of the second half of the game, the position beside him was still empty.

He didn't know what Florentino was doing, and he didn't want to care what this man was doing. But he felt insulted.

If this is a national derby against Barcelona, ​​does Florentino dare to be late in front of Laporta? He probably doesn't want to miss a minute of the game.

Nottingham Forest is a little weaker. In his mind, a team like this cannot threaten Real Madrid. If you miss a few minutes of the game, you will miss it. This game must be less important than what he is currently busy with.

As for what he is up to, no one knows. Maybe it’s just going to the bathroom, maybe chatting with someone, maybe forgetting the time while resting...

In short, when Nottingham Forest was on the court against Real Madrid, Evan Daggerty was still empty. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
