Super Marshal

Chapter 185: I found it!

   "Beep!!!"

   "Okay, with the referee's whistle, the first half of the game is over."

   "Atletico Madrid relied on Torres' key goal in the 14th minute to temporarily lead one to zero."

   "Real Madrid performed very poorly throughout the first half, and the whole team was completely out of form. Whether it was the rhythm of the game or the possession of the ball, they were completely led by Atletico Madrid."

   "We now see whether Bosque can re-adjust the team and stimulate the player's state during the intermission."

  ……

   In Palma, Mallorca, southern Spain, when Aragones was sitting in the living room of his home and heard the live TV commentator making a summary of the first half of the game, he smiled slightly and shook his head.

   This is the difference between the insider and the outsider.

   Even a senior such as a live TV commentator, it is difficult to assume the role of the head coach to analyze the game.

   The commentator of the Spanish TV station believed that Real Madrid's fall in the first half was due to the poor state of the team, which led to the passive situation of Real Madrid, but in Aragones' view, this is a reversal of cause and effect.

   It is precisely because the scene is passive that the players do not perform well.

  Football is a team sport. It pays attention to the overall combat. On the pitch, it pays to take advantage of the situation. It is impossible for a player to change the situation of the entire game by playing alone.

   The role of a star or even a superstar on the court is more dependent on its own ability to create an advantage in a certain local area, and then drive the performance of other teammates around it.

   But if you want to rely on the superstar's personal ability to completely change the situation of the game, it is simply impossible.

   is like Real Madrid in the first half.

   was passive because Atletico Madrid completely suppressed Real Madrid on the tactical level.

   The high-level defense of the    Sheets Corps, the pressing and pressing in the midfield, and the skillful control of the ball in the backfield all make Real Madrid feel uncomfortable, but also contain it everywhere.

  The reason is simple. To break Atletico Madrid's midfield possession, the team must have a tight defensive position from the front to the back of the three lines, especially the midfield, which must be actively defensive.

   But now, as a high center, Morientes moves slowly and does not contribute much to defense. Figo and Zidane are even less active on defense. They put all their energy into offense.

   Double defensive midfielders Makelele and El Guerra dare not leave their positions easily, which directly leads to Real Madrid's midfielder with only Raul in the counter.

   In addition, Atletico Madrid pays attention to the skillful one-foot pass, which creates the opponent's defensive gap through the players' active interspersed running, thereby creating passing space for teammates and creating a local advantage for the team.

   In this case, one person robbed the other seven of them, and it was simply slipped to play.

   It can be said that Real Madrid cannot break Atletico Madrid’s possession tactics when the superstars are not actively engaged in defense.

But conversely, when Real Madrid is in possession of the ball, Atletico Madrid’s three lines are always able to invest in counter-grabbing at the first time, and maintain an orderly formation before and after. Through this kind of overall combat with active participation of all members, in the shortest time Grab the ball back to his own hands.

   More importantly, Real Madrid's overall rhythm is slow.

   This slowness is not only reflected in the individual players, especially the core player Zidane, but also in the team as a whole.

   Cruyff criticized La Liga for implementing double midfielder tactics in a swarm, and Aragonese agrees very much.

   He said that although a double midfielder is more stable defensively than a single midfielder, it is inefficient in terms of offensive and defensive conversion.

   This is not an argument about who is right, but a question of choice.

   La Liga used to be very popular single midfielder in the 1990s. Guardiola and Redondo are among the best.

   But to the end, especially in the past few years at the turn of the century, the shortcomings of the single midfielder in defense have gradually been exposed.

  Guardiola’s situation needless to say, Redondo’s treatment at Real Madrid is not much better. Last season, if it weren’t for Bosque’s adjustment of the team

Tactics, instead of playing five guards, he may not be better than Guardiola.

   It can be said that the head coaches of La Liga at the time were clearly aware of the advantages and disadvantages of a single midfielder, so they tended to be more pragmatic in the choice of a double midfielder.

   But now, Gao Han has given another way of playing with a single defensive midfielder.

   That is to increase the force of the midfield press.

   It should be said that throughout the first half, Atletico Madrid reflected this idea very well.

   What makes Aragones most bright is the pressing and running of the bed linen on the court.

In this kind of high-level competition, high-level defense is often very risky. If the midfield cannot be grabbed, it will be difficult to defend the backcourt. However, Atletico Madrid has compressed the three lines and the players’ excellent tactical execution is guaranteed. The quality of defensive pressure in the team's frontcourt makes it difficult for Real Madrid to control the ball smoothly.

   In addition, the flexible and tacit movement of the players of the Sheets Corps is also very impressive.

   Through this flexible interspersed running, it is easy to mess up Real Madrid's defensive formation.

   In this case, whether to follow or not is a difficult problem.

   Follow, it is easy to lose your position and cause confusion; if you don’t follow, you have to exchange defensive objects with your teammates, but the football field changes rapidly, and it is easy to cause leakage when you exchange defensive objects.

   Aragones thought about this, couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly.

   He talked about these things in depth with Gao Han, but he never thought that it would be what it is now on the football field.

   The same sentence, the same concept, and even the same set of tactics, after the imagination, processing and design of different coaches, are reflected on the football field, and they are likely to be two completely different styles of play.

   Aragones sees it now, and can only say that Atletico Madrid has basically played the idea of ​​high cold.

   And it's still a football concept that is ahead of everyone else.

   "It seems that this season's La Liga, the most likely to surprise people, is Atletico Madrid!"

   Aragones laughed expectantly.

After    finished speaking, he picked up the phone beside him and pressed a number to call.

   "Hey, Angel, I found it."

  …………

  …………

   "Slow, slow, slow, too slow!"

   In the locker room of the home team at Calderon Stadium, Gao Han is reprimanding his players.

   "Passing is slow, receiving is slow, and the overall rhythm is slower!"

   The players looked at each other and were all scolded.

   Is this slow?

   That's Real Madrid, we are ahead!

   "Do you know, what was our possession rate in the first half?"

   Some players were silent, some shook their heads.

   "Fifty-four percent!"

   The players smiled upon hearing this, and they were eight percentage points higher than Real Madrid.

  God, you know, Real Madrid is best at possession of the ball.

  Who doesn't know in Europe, the Galaxy Battleship is known for its skillful ball handling and mercury-like smooth attack?

   It’s alright now, it's eight percentage points behind Atletico Madrid, which is awesome!

  Although Gao Han's next sentence made all the players unhappy.

   "You actually gave Real Madrid a 46% possession rate. Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

   The players looked at each other again and couldn't believe it.

   Still not satisfied with Real Madrid's ball possession rate to 46%?

   Could it be that according to the boss, you can't give Real Madrid possession of the ball?

   That's Real Madrid!

   Raul, Figo, Zidane, which one is not a master of the ball?

   makes the Galaxy Battleship unable to control the ball, it is hard not to score a goal!

   Torres, who was wearing the captain's armband, gritted his teeth. Just as he was about to say something, he was secretly pulled and jerked by Villan next to him.

   Look over, gourd baby is with me

The naked upper body gestured, and his mouth was like saying, suit.

   Torres is also a savvy egg, and it suddenly dawned on him.

   It turned out to be such a thing!

   I feel boring to see the players watching their noses, their noses, and minds one by one.

   Isn't any of them a bit spine, stand up and refute?

   These bastards!

   "Well, let's not talk too much nonsense, there is not much time, you will focus on two things in the second half!"

   As soon as Gao Han said, all the players looked up.

   When they should be serious, they can still be serious.

   "Real Madrid will definitely not be reconciled to falling behind. They will counterattack wildly after the opening of the second half. You have seen their offensive power. After the opening of the second half, we must first defend and stabilize our position, understand?"

   "Understood!" The players answered in unison.

   "Carlos." Gao Han pointed to Marchena.

   The latter straightened his chest immediately and sat upright.

   "You have been warned by the referee several times in the first half, be careful, don't move too much, don't try to get pregnant at every turn."

   As soon as Gao Han's words came out, the whole locker room burst into laughter.

   Marchena was very hot on defense in the first half, and the sentence that he blurted out, anyone of you who wants to get pregnant was heard by the surrounding players, and Gao Han apparently heard it too.

   The Spanish central defender scratched his head awkwardly~lightnovelpub.net~ quickly agreed.

"Okay, the second thing I want to solemnly emphasize again is that I often remind me repeatedly in training. When we have the ball, we should make more use of the space behind the opponent. If you don't have the ball, you should get in more. Pass more, don’t be afraid of making mistakes. If you lose the ball, just grab it back."

   "Remember that possession of the ball is not the goal, but goals are!"

   "Understood!" The players agreed again in unison.

   Gao Han glanced angrily at the players in front of him, cursing in his heart, when did these gangsters learn so smart?

   is so dripping that it makes people want to go crazy and can't find a reason.

   But when the referee urged the pitch to ring, the players stood up one by one and prepared to play, but Torres, who was at the top of the team, suddenly came over.

   "Boss, I know a dry cleaner that is good. It should be cleaned. Would you like me to try it for you?"

   At the end of the talk, this kid was already uncontrollable. Before Alpine could react, he quickly ran away.

   The players behind him all walked past Gao Han grinning one after another.

   Dry cleaner?

  My suit...

   That's ten achievement points!

   I am so heartbroken! (To be continued.)
