Four Hundred and Fiftieth Chapters Big Man Must Have Great Wisdom
When Yang Huan returned from the stand where the Saints fan club was located to the main stand at Yongming Stadium, the game was about to start.
Under the leadership of the head coach, both sides walked out of the player tunnel one after another.
Barcelona played the main force in this game. The new coach Vilanova inherited the tactical framework of Guardiola's period, and there was not much change on the whole.
Alexander Song and left-back Alba, who were introduced in the transfer market this summer, are both counter-intensive signings.
In this game, Barcelona's starting lineup is goalkeeper Valdes, the back line is Alba, Pique, Puyol and Alves, and the midfield is the iron triangle of Iniesta, Busquets and Xavi combination.
The attacking combination in the frontcourt is Villa, Messi and Sanchez.
Southampton is also the main force here.
Goalkeeper Neuer, the back line are Alaba, Harvey Martinez, Varane and Azpilicueta, the three midfielders are Modric, Toni Kroos and Vidal, the frontcourt The trident is Neymar, Ibrahimovic and Gareth Bale.
When the players of the two teams lined up in their respective half, Roselle was a little surprised.
"Why Gareth? Bale still plays on the right?" the Barcelona chair asked strangely.
When Gareth Bale was at Tottenham Hotspur, he played on the left wing and made a name for himself in the Champions League on the left side of Inter Milan's world-leading right-back Maicon.
But after coming to Southampton, Bielsa placed Gareth Bale on the right.
Judging from the effect of the previous warm-up games, Gareth Bell's effect on the right is not ideal.
"Players are used to playing on the left, but as a left-footed player, it is more advantageous to play on the right wing, and this can make Bell more comprehensive!" Yang Huan explained with a smile.
After listening, Roselle also nodded.
The winger goes against the foot, which is also a common phenomenon in European professional football now.
Real Madrid's Florentino, who specially came to participate in the International Champions Cup final, saw Modric wearing a Southampton jersey and appearing in the midfield area with envy and hatred on his face.
This Modric is definitely the top controlling midfielder in the Premier League, very comprehensive.
Judging from the past few warm-up games, he is also slowly establishing a tacit understanding with his teammates.
On the contrary, Real Madrid missed Modric and Stroman, and the midfield is still being adjusted.
This also led to Real Madrid's poor performance in the International Champions Cup and an early elimination.
"Play midfield with Modric and Toni Kroos, okay? Wouldn't it be too single?"
Yang Huan smiled and said nothing, but Bielsa's words could not help but emerge in his heart.
At the beginning, some people in the team were worried about this. They thought that Modric and Toni Kroos were both technical players. Although there was a Vidal in the midfield, the position was obviously more advanced. In this way, how to ensure Southampton's midfield defense ?
You know, the Premier League is famous for its fast-paced whirlwind, and its impact is too strong. Once the midfield is not hard enough, it is easy to be smashed by the opponent. How can the game continue?
But Bielsa did not give a very positive attitude,
He believes that the defense of modern football has undergone tremendous changes from the past.
As far as Barcelona's midfield is concerned, is the combination of Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta tough enough?
It is obviously soft, it can even be said that it is a soft persimmon!
But how is Barcelona's defense?
I believe that all opponents who have played against Barcelona will give a thumbs up.
So how did they do it?
The orderliness and integrity of the defense!
To put it simply, relying on the formation of a numerical advantage in a local area compresses the movement space of the opponent's players.
In the fight, they don't pay attention to physical confrontation, and more are to complete the defense by blocking the opponent's ball out line.
This kind of orderly and overall defense is much more effective than the individual combat in the past.
Not only that, the advantage of equipped with skilled midfielders with a balanced attack and defense is that they play with their brains, and they know how to use awareness and pre-judgment to achieve defensive effects.
After the team completes the steal, the technical midfielder's game awareness and ability to read the game can ensure that the team completes the transition from attack to defense in the shortest time, maximizes the counterattack effect, and even completes the goal.
These are not available in the traditional body type midfield, even top midfielders such as Vieira and Roy Keane.
But this tactic is also particularly demanding on midfielders.
The first point is the tactical execution ability, to be able to understand and implement the tactical intention of the head coach.
And to be able to run!
Running is so important to modern football, especially running with purpose.
It can even be said that the movement of the players is equivalent to the vitality of a team.
Of course, the combination of Modric and Toni Kroos is also an experiment.
If not, there is another Matic in the Southampton team.
Serbian midfielder is definitely one of the top midfielders in today's football!
Just like Yaya Toure, he is also a wonderful flower among midfielders!
It's just that the tactical roles between the two are different!
Yang Huan didn't speak, and Florentino and the others were equally reluctant to say anything more. They could only watch the game quietly.
At the beginning of the game, Southampton still insisted on the attacking football of the past.
Bielsa's side pressed hard from the first minute of the game, keeping the three lines tight.
This game is the first time Ibrahimovic has reunited with his old boss since he left Barcelona, so the Swedish center looks very excited, especially when he sees Gerard Pique defending himself in front of him. , could not help but sneer.
This big mouth who used to humiliate himself and Southampton on Twitter and WeChat!
Gerard Pique looked at Zlatan Ibrahimovic with some trepidation in his heart, not daring to be careless at all.
Seeing Zlatan Ibrahimovic sneer at himself again, I couldn't help but feel a little hairy in my heart.
"why are you laughing?"
Ibrahimovic pointed to the sky, and the joke in his sneer was even more pronounced.
Pique raised his head and looked at the night sky, the stars were a little bit puzzled, what do you mean?
"Wait a minute and remember to raise your head and see what is called Southampton from the stars!"
Pique was just stunned, what does that mean?
Southampton from the stars?
But soon, he remembered, wasn't this what he said when he humiliated Southampton two years ago?
Damn Swedes, even remember!
"Hey, Gerald, watch out, it's coming!"
Puyol, who was not far away, saw that Pique was a little distracted, and immediately shouted a reminder.
Pique looked up and saw that the ball was passed back and forth between the two Southampton midfielders, and it was already over half-time.
"Damn it, don't try to fool me!"
"To deal with you, I don't need those little tricks!" The Swede laughed disdainfully.
This time Pique was a little annoyed.
Damn you, I know you are the world's leading center, but are you so arrogant?
Do you really think the old man is dead?
"Wait a minute, don't cry when I score a goal over your head!"
Pique is really on fire and wants to score a goal over my head?
just you? Also match?
"Gerald, don't talk to him, he's trying to distract you!" Puyol shouted again.
Ibrahimovic laughed and looked at Puyol, "Be careful of the top of your head, shorty!"
Wow, this is simply a personal attack!
What Puyol hated most in his life was that others ridiculed him for his height!
The reason is simple, his biggest scar is his height.
He has imagined countless times that if he was a little taller, he would definitely be the best and most perfect central defender in the world.
But unfortunately, God was joking with him, giving him such a height of less than 1.8 meters, which is tragic enough!
Therefore, every time he sees a tall and tall high school center, he is very envious, jealous, and hateful, especially for Ibrahimovic, who has an almost perfect center body. Just beyond words.
Now, being called a dwarf in person?
Too much!
It's really unbearable for my uncle and aunt!
"You're dead, Ibrahimovic!" Puyol immediately became furious.
Ibrahimovic still had that sneering expression, as if he didn't care about Puyol and Pique at all, which made them even more annoyed.
Suddenly, Modric dribbled the ball forward in the midfield, and after attracting Busquets' attention, he gave it to Neymar, who quickly cut in from the left, and the latter rubbed his right foot after he stopped.
I saw an overhead ball, crossed an arc, and fell behind Pique.
The ball came very suddenly. Pique adjusted his position in a hurry and jumped in a hurry, but the ball rubbed against his head.
It slipped out!
All the fans in the audience burst into an uproar!
I saw Ibrahimovic suddenly start and pass by Pique.
When Pique turned around after landing, Ibrahimovic had stopped the ball at the front of the penalty area and could not catch up.
Puyol is relatively small, but his body is very flexible, and he has been keeping an eye on Ibrahimovic, so he keeps up.
But what's the use of that?
As soon as the Swedes stopped the ball, the tall and strong body directly rolled over.
This simple and rude action made Puyol almost burst into tears.
Damn you, bullying me is not as tall as you, and not as big as you, right?
Puyol is small and flexible, and knows that it is too disadvantageous to fight hard.
But the problem is that now people take the initiative to bully the door, and if they don't follow up, they will lose their defensive position.
I felt a huge force, like the pressure of Mount Tai, hitting the top. Puyol almost tried his best to reach the top, but he almost couldn't hold it.
He also did not expect that after two years of absence, this 30-year-old Swede still maintains such a good physical condition.
horrible!
But soon, Puyol felt the strength lightened, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
But immediately noticed something was wrong.
Sure enough, when he reacted, he saw that Ibrahimovic had relied on his long legs to suppress Puyol. Under his eyelids, he immediately kicked up his feet.
All the fans in the audience cheered!
Too strong!
Simple, crude, direct, but enjoyable!
The ball hit the goal guarded by Valdes like a cannonball.
The Barcelona goalkeeper tensed his nerves, and his eyes were fixed on the ball that was fast and whose direction was still a little elusive.
At the critical moment, he made a judgment, his body moved quickly, and his hands made an upward movement.
"Wow!!!!!"
"In less than a minute of the opening, Ibrahimovic shot a long-range shot from the front of the penalty area. Valdes couldn't catch the ball and was forced to lift the ball over the crossbar!"
"What a pity, Ibrahimovic's shot is too powerful!"
"Neymar's long-range pick is also quite beautiful!"
"Southampton gave Barcelona a score at the beginning of the game!"
"It seems that, as predicted by many fans before the game, the scene where Barcelona will ravage Southampton may not appear. Southampton used the first attack after the opening to create a threat to tell Barcelona the next word!"
"We Southampton are not soft persimmons!"
After completing a high-quality heavy artillery long-range shot, Ibrahimovic couldn't help but pouted when he saw that he didn't make it, and made a face at Puyol and Pique, who was chasing after him.
"Our boss, Young Master Huan, said that a big man must have great wisdom. Take your time, there is still a lot of time!"
Puyol and Pique looked at each other and wanted to cry! (To be continued) [] If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Chuangshi to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
