Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 970: The heart of the lion king moves forward

The Spaniards must have never imagined that they would concede the ball in this way, consecutively three-footed shots, their defenders did not grab a spot, all in the grasp of England.

Obviously, England has thoroughly studied Spain, and the tactics they have made are quite right.

Dunn was excited to celebrate for the goal not far from the side, while Hierro sat on the chair without lifting his butt. He is thinking about such a question-this change in England must have profound meaning, but what are the specific implications?

Judging from this goal...Is it coincidence or premeditated?

This is completely different from England's previous offense. Rooney and Abang Raho are the two forwards to play the wing midfielder, but Gerrard, the midfielder, does not perform the duty of organizing the offense... What does Tony Dunn think?

"It seems that we are betting right!" On the other side, Tony Dunn was excited at Des Walker, "The Spaniards had no idea that we would skip frames like this. They couldn't react and couldn't find it. The way to deal with us!"

"If they find a way to deal with us, what should we do?" Walker is not as excited as Dunn, he always thinks this kind of change is too risky.

"I think until the end of the first half, Hierro couldn't think of a way to deal with us... even if he thought of it, he couldn't implement it." Dunn smiled very proudly, he was confident in this regard. "To deal with us, he has to substitute. In the semifinals, he dare not substitute before the first half. Look at the current Spanish starting roster, how many people can be replaced?"

Fabregas and Iniesta are Spain's dual cores and certainly cannot be replaced, and both of them are biased towards offense and their defensive contributions are pitiful. The two wide Silva and Lago are not the kind of players who are good at and like defensively. Their task is to attack and attack. Spain, known as the strongest midfielder in Europe, has only one Camacho as a defensive midfielder, but how can he be able to guard against Gerrard, Rooney, Abangraho and Wood in turn? The goal just now can explain the problem: Camacho followed Gerrard running, Rooney was unmarked, after Rooney took the ball and attracted the attention of the Spanish defense, Vaughn quietly left the Spanish defenders' sight. . No one noticed him. On the one hand, the defenders were watching Rooney’s next move closely. On the other hand, it was Vaughan’s first starting game in this tournament. For the players, he is not well-known in the hearts of Spanish defenders. He really lacks a sense of presence...

In the final analysis, Dunn’s tactic is to use Mitchell to attract the attention of Spanish defenders. Rooney, Abang Raho, and Gerrard are the real killer moves. . If Rooney is lucky, he should have scored the first shot just now, but Asenjo made a world-class save. Instead, Vaughn took advantage.

If Spain wants to make adjustments to England's tactics, it is not the question of who is going to mark Rooney and who is going to mark Abang Raho, but must find someone to entangle George Wood. Because the brain of England is him, not anyone else. If Wood can't pass the ball normally, England's offense will be paralyzed.

But Wood's position is the midfielder, very far back, even if he doesn't come up, he can still organize the offense through long passes. If you want to find someone who can defend him, you can't say that there is no such a number in world football, at least in Spain... it is difficult.

"So... I remember that Hierro said in an interview before the European Cup that he would present the best-looking European Cup to Spanish fans. That is to say, he intends to stick to his attacking tactics, for which he brought a lot of attacks. Type players, but defensive players only..." After pondering here, Walker suddenly stopped, turning his head to look at Dunn in surprise.

Dunn smiled at him: "Yes, Camacho is the only midfielder who can really defend. Hierro can never let the central defender rush to our half to defend George, right?"

After Dunn said so, Walker's hanging heart finally let go. He sat back on the coaching bench and looked at the players running on the field. He thought that Tony was right. Now Spain is all in our calculations, and we shouldn’t be surprised at what adjustments they make. At least we are safe in the first half.

The subsequent game was just like Dunn said. The Spanish team tried to counterattack. In fact, they did create a lot of threats to England's goal on offense, but no matter how many shots they took, they did not bring goals. And considering the offense of the England team, Spain's two full-backs did not dare to rush in assists, and Hierro specially told them on the sidelines. Until the end of the first half, not continuing to lose the ball is a top priority.

England are also very active in seeking offense. A one-goal lead is not safe. If possible, it would be nice to have a two-goal lead at the end of the first half. From coaches to players, everyone thinks so.

The game looked better after England scored. Spain, who is good at attacking, and England who want to attack, collided with passion at the New Mestalla Stadium.

Both sides played wonderful and beautiful offensive cooperation, but everyone's luck was a little bit close. Until the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 0:1, and the host Spain temporarily fell behind.

Although I am not very satisfied with the score of 1:0, it is a good result to be able to lead. So Dunn didn't show any dissatisfaction when he was off the court.

The Spanish players are not particularly frustrated. After all, they are only one goal behind. The head coach will definitely make adjustments during the halftime. The second half is the real decisive battle!

The two teams left the stadium with different moods. The Spanish fans in the stands were not as confident in the second half as their team. Most Spanish fans were worried about the fate of the team. The most favorite thing for England fans to do now is to discuss the naval battle five hundred years ago.

It was in that naval battle that the Royal Navy defeated the Spanish Invincible Fleet, the world's largest fleet at the time, allowing Britain to replace Spain as the maritime hegemon, laying a solid foundation for the establishment of a "empire that never sets in the sun".

This glorious history is well-known to every Englishman, and it is a perfect fit for today's game.

"We are leading by one goal, but now is not the time to celebrate, guys." In the locker room, Dunn was preaching to the team. "To know……"

"A goal lead is the most dangerous score in the world!" Some players have already shouted out for him.

Dunn laughed and pointed at the players and said, "Not bad, I learned how to answer them..."

There was a burst of laughter in the dressing room. Although this is the semifinal, the players have a very good mentality, and Dunn is very satisfied with it.

"Spain will definitely make adjustments to our tactics in the second half. You have to be mentally prepared-the second half must not be as easy as the first half. We may get into a tough fight-if you don't widen the score gap at the beginning of the second half. They. What kind of adjustments will be made? It will not be defense, but offense. They will strengthen their offense on the wing. Fabregas and Iniesta will frequently split the ball to the wing, or simply go to the wing. , They can only suppress our wing attack by strengthening their wing offensive..." At this point, Dunn pointed to Rooney and Abang Raho, "Attention, you need to return to defense in the second half."

Abangraho nodded, and Rooney had doubts: "Boss, since their purpose is to suppress our side attack, if Gabriel and I both return to defense, wouldn't it be just right for them to achieve their goals?"

Dunn smiled slightly: "We still have George. They suppressed our wing, we walked in the middle. After forty-five minutes of the first half, the Spaniard must think that our main attack direction is two sides, and Mi Turchel and Vaughan are just illusions used to attract the attention of each other... If they really think so and make adjustments accordingly, then in the second half..." Dunn pointed to Mitchell and Vaughan , "You two will let the Spaniards know who the furnishings are!"

"No problem, boss!" Mitchell replied loudly.

※※※

"I must admit that I did not expect England to make such a change..." In the Spanish team's locker room, Hierro apologized to the team and admitted his mistake. "I apologize for the overall disadvantage in the first half."

The Spanish players did not expect the head coach to bow their heads in public, but this made them feel that they were not fulfilling their responsibilities. The reality of one goal behind should not be borne by the coach, because the team's backwardness is not the responsibility of a single individual, but a problem for the whole team.

The atmosphere in the Spanish team has always been very good. Although Catalonia has been fighting for independence in Spain, this will not affect the friendship of the players in the national team. Today they are a whole, without the distinction of Madrid, Basque and Catalan.

"We have to make adjustments in the second half. Unfortunately, we don't have too many defensive players in midfield."

Camacho immediately felt the gaze from everyone, and he himself knew that as the only defensive midfielder in the team, his task in the second half would be heavier.

"We can't make too many adjustments on defense. I can't ask Camacho to cover from the frontcourt to the backcourt. We can only find a way on offense." Hierro pondered a little. "England's tradition is to attack from the wing. Their midfield passes very quickly. They mainly rely on the wing to promote the attack. George Wood is only responsible for scheduling. There are very few fatal passes close to the penalty zone. They want to suppress their wing. To attack, we can only fight our wing attack. Spain’s tradition is also a wing attack. Don’t forget this, gentlemen!"

Hierro decided to put heavy troops on the wing, both Iniesta and Fabregas must be more active on the wing, and Lago and Silva played a varied offense.

※※※

"On offensively, our midfielder needs to deliver the ball quickly, reducing the number of touches and ball possession time. Technically we are indeed inferior to Spain. You have to admit this." Seeing someone showing an unhappy expression, Dunn immediately pointed to it. past. "If the Spanish team strengthens control and defense in the midfield, then we will make more use of long back passes... Mitchell and Vaughan are the two lighthouses in the front field. Long pass will find them. Gerrard Your task is to control the second point when they control the high point. If you are close to the penalty area, try your best to shoot!"

Gerald nodded and clenched his fists. On long-range shooting, he will not lose to anyone. The increase in age did not affect his explosive power in shooting, and now his long-range shooting angle is more difficult, and his feet are more concealed.

"If we didn't score a goal at the beginning of the second half, we will temporarily slow down, reclaim the formation, and defend firmly. But in such a situation, don't forget to attack. Any opportunity for attack must be firmly grasped by me. I tell you, in the football field, if you waste an opportunity, you will get retribution!"

"I only emphasize one point-when attacking, you must be fast! Run fast, respond fast, pass the ball fast, even if you shoot, give me fast! This fast pace is what Spain lacks, and they are afraid of it. It is our advantage and we must make good use of it."

※※※

"What if England fight us back? They are very fast. If you are sure you are not sure to stop the football, then foul! Foul far from the penalty area, the sooner the better! Don't think I am targeting defensive players. What we said, starting from the forward, once the ball is lost, it will be counter-attacked and blocked. Even if the ball cannot be intercepted, they must be forced to pass back, and they cannot be allowed to play a fast attack. Once England's speed is raised , It will be difficult to stop them... None of our players have a card in the first half. This is our advantage. The referee is relatively soft to us, which is also our advantage and we must use it. In addition, in the physical confrontation with England, you can fall to the ground more. Remember that we are the host and this is our home court!"

※※※

"When you are defensive, pay attention to the action. Be concealed and concealed! Do you know what it means to be concealed? Don't let the **** referee show you the small moves! You want the Spaniards to suffer a hidden loss! You know we can be regarded as such. In the away game, the referee will definitely be a little bit biased towards the Spanish team. There is no doubt that I know UEFA’s style of acting." Dunn said that, and some people snickered in their hearts. Nottingham Forest is consolidated by UEFA every year. As Qian Man's head coach, he certainly knows what UEFA style is.

"If you are convicted of a foul, do not try to argue with the referee. Under the circumstances, any of your actions may be interpreted by the referee as a provocation to his authority. I definitely don't want to see a yellow card late for the foul. The second yellow card happened through verbal protest."

Dunn looked serious, he wanted to let the players know how important this is.

※※※

"Okay, I've said everything that should be said. Do you want more than 60,000 fans to witness their favorite team play three or four finals? Do you want to miss the chance to win the championship trophy at home? One goal behind is nothing great, we are Spain, we are as a whole!" Hierro showed his style as the captain of the Spanish team and agitated the players loudly. "We are the host, with so many fans watching us, we can't lose anyway!"

※※※

"Guys, in forty-five minutes, we will be in the finals of the World Series for the first time in fifty years. Think about this number, fifty! Half a century! If we can do it, how What a great thing! Does anyone want to write their name in history? At a time when one step forward is a hero, does anyone want to stand still or even retreat? No, no one wants to! Now..." Tang En pointed to the door of the locker room, "Everyone has-go forward!"
