Chapter 438: Tactical Imitation
? Although he recognized Collina as a legendary referee, David did not put his heart in his stomach.
Yes, Collina's law enforcement career is almost perfect and almost artistic, but after all, he is a man, not a god, and he will always make mistakes, which is inevitable.
I remember that in the previous life it was the UEFA Cup final between Valencia and Marseille. Collina had a very controversial penalty. It was because of this controversial penalty that the originally evenly matched game became one-sided. In the end, Marseille was saddened.
Before the end of the first half of the game, Marseille made a throw-in error in the backcourt, Valencia launched a counterattack on the spot, right-back Torres made an oblique pass, and the Marseille defender jumped to the top. Single-handedly, Butters attacked and knocked down Mista. Collina awarded a penalty and showed a red card. There was an uproar in the audience. The players from Marseille came to reason, but the bald referee's penalty had already been made. will not change.
Goalkeepers are different from other players on the field. It is normal for a goalkeeper to save with his feet in front. It is hard to say that Butters’ action is a malicious tackle. At the same time, Mista is going to the bottom line, not to the bottom line. Wafting the ball in the direction of the goal, this is not an interference when the opponent must score a goal. A yellow card for a penalty is an understandable penalty, a red card goes too far.
Collina has his own views and perceptions, and no one will doubt that he can favor Valencia, but the fact is that Valencia won the UEFA Cup trophy because of this penalty, and Valencia benefited Then, in this game in this life, will there be some mysterious power that will make Valencia a beneficiary?
Even if this possibility is slim, David has to be cautious. In the finals, often a small detail can determine the final winner, especially when the two teams are of equal strength.

When the starters of the two teams walked into the stadium from the player tunnel, the fans in the stands gave a loud cry. I am afraid this may be the only chance for the two teams to cheer together in this stadium. .
Loew did not see Aimar among the starting players in Valencia, and compared with the starting list, it turns out that Benitez really threw the Joker into the bench. It seems that the Joker really has no good luck and can only be on the bench. Waiting for the chance of the surprise arrival on the bench, otherwise Benitez will definitely not put the team's offensive core on the bench and count ants playing.
Although I don't care much about Bates' tactical arrangement, but Aimar did not play, so Notts County must have a much easier situation.
Collina blew the whistle, and the two teams began a fierce competition. Near the midfield, the war broke out.
Notts County's strategy of always taking the lead is to seize the gap between the opponent's offensive and defensive transition after pressing from a high position.
The fast-paced situation often makes opponents very uncomfortable, and even in the big environment of the Premier League, they can do everything they can.
But today in the UEFA Cup final, Notts County's tactics seem to be of little use. Loew is surprised to find that Valencia and Notts County are using the same tactics.
Baraja and Albelda are also both offensive and defensive. Their role is similar to Deco and Alonso, and their defensive intensity is harder. In addition, Aimar did not play, and Angulo in the attacking midfield position also Also with defensive ability, they are completely unbeatable in the midfield competition.
Mista and Villa have similar roles. Vicente and Robben are also good at breaking through from the side. Although Ruffit, who starts on the left, does not have the outstanding offensive ability of Iniesta, he is not as good as Library. Itt is similar and can assist in midfield defense.
Valencia is completely imitating Notts County's tactics!
Loew clicked his tongue and thought it was very interesting. Originally, the strength of the two teams was very close, but now they are playing the same routine again. Does this mean to look in the mirror?
The players on the Notts County field also played familiar and awkward. No matter what kind of opponent they encountered before, they had never felt as uncomfortable as today.
For Valencia's players, because of the diversity of Benitez's tactics, they don't need so much time to adapt. A new set of tactics will soon be able to have combat effectiveness under their feet. During this period of time, they were present. Better than Notts County.
However, the current competition between the two sides is limited to the midfield, because both sides have hoarded heavy troops in the midfield. Even if the ball is quickly played through the midfield, it is difficult to form a real threat with weak force.
Of course, this also means adapting to the game and testing, and after more than ten minutes of the game, the two teams began to gradually show their muscles.
The first force was Valencia, who was the first to enter the rhythm of the game. Baraja tackled and broke the ball at the foot of Sneijder, and then quickly distributed it to Vicente on the wing. The Spanish wing spread its wings behind Running like a flight, Robben's defensive slag is so fast that although he can catch up with Vicente, there is no way to stop Vicente from moving forward.
When Ram came to defend, the outflanking of Valencia's middle lane had already formed, Angulo and Mist had already pushed into the penalty area, and Ruffit had also been ambushed at the back point, as if waiting Passed by Vicente.
Everyone focused their attention on the penalty area, but did not expect Vicente to falter a shot, but passed an inverted triangle and sent the ball to the front of the penalty area. There was a vacuum of Notts County defense. Raha shot furiously, and the ball hit the Notts County goal like a cannonball.
Valencia's attack this time caught Notts County by surprise. They, who had always hoped to switch between offense and defense, were caught by their opponents, and their faces were ashamed and panicked.
At this critical juncture, fortunately, Diego Lopez stood up. Although Baraja's shot was powerful, the angle was not tricky. To be on the safe side, Diego Lopez chose to double punch to resolve the crisis. .
After contacting the crisis, the players of Notts County were thinking about the gains and losses in their hearts. The opponents used their own methods to fight against them, which obviously made them very uncomfortable. Isn't it your own!
David doesn't know if Benitez has studied Jin Yong's "Dragon Babu", and he has played the trick of doing things in his own way. Isn't he afraid that the objects they imitate have things they can't imitate? ? (To be continued.)
