Chapter 42
Weekend, Ourense, Ocuto Stadium.
Although it is a small northwest city with only over 100,000 people, Ourense has a strong football atmosphere.
The stands on both sides were full of seats, and the atmosphere at home was the best that Gao Han had ever seen, the best among the teams in the second league.
The momentum created by more than 5,000 fans is enough to affect the visiting team.
When the home team got the ball, they cheered immediately, and when the away team got the ball, they booed mercilessly. Ourense fans used this method to support their team.
Our city is small, but our team is not weak!
Ourense coach Francisco Soler thinks so too.
Especially after the game starts.
Because he found that the visiting guests did not rush to attack as usual, but shrunk their defenses.
They are here to guard!
The start of the game was dull. Ourense and Atletico Madrid's second team were trying to test, and they didn't mean to attack.
In particular, the second team of Atlético de Madrid has reversed the tactic of attacking aggressively after the opening of the past three rounds. Instead, it has firmly defended its own half, leaving two forwards in front to harass.
"They actually want to play a defensive counterattack?" Soler was a little surprised.
Generally speaking, low-level league teams are no better than top-level league teams. They often have only one lineup, honed out a set of skilled tactics, and then formed a familiar game routine around the tactics.
In Francisco Soler's view, the reason why Atletico Madrid's second team wants to attack is because they want to be preemptive and take advantage of the opportunity. Through the attack, it is best to score goals, and it can also disrupt the opponent's rhythm. and game plan.
Simply put, let the game go at its own pace.
But now, Atletico Madrid's second team has given up the attack.
This is unreasonable!
Why didn't he play cards according to the routine at all?
What about rushing after the agreed opening?
"Maybe they're not sure either!" the assistant guessed.
The two teams scored the same points. Although the second team of Atletico Madrid scored more goals, Ourense did not concede a goal. The two sides are evenly matched.
However, this is Ourense's home court.
It is also a pragmatic strategy for Atletico Madrid's second team to play a defensive counterattack in the away game.
Soler nodded, there is indeed such a possibility, but he is not sure.
"Should we press it out?" the assistant suggested.
Since the opponent is willing to give up the initiative, as the home team, it should adopt a more active tactic.
But Soler shook his head, "Wait a little longer."
He thought it was better to be careful.
…………
…………
"Haha, I don't know if it is beyond their expectations?"
Gao Hanzhuo stood on the sidelines and asked Cantarero with a smile.
The experienced assistant also had a wry smile on his face, "Unexpected is sure, but how do we fight next?"
Cantarero's thoughts are the same as Soler's, giving up the opening attack, and Atletico Madrid's second team is tantamount to giving up the rhythm and game situation to the opponent. How will the team play next?
But this is a long-standing problem for all professional head coaches, but it is not a problem for Gao Han.
Because he has a skill card, and it is still three stars, and can be upgraded to four stars at any time.
Not to mention the opponent is Orense, even if it is challenging a La Liga team, Gao Han has the confidence to give it a go.
In the past, when Gao Han coached the Chinatown team, the team was too weak, and the opponents they met in the game were much stronger than the Chinatown team, so in the game, life-saving is the most important thing.
It is also because of this that Gao Han attaches great importance to rushing and attacking, and uses skill cards recklessly.
But now it's different.
The overall strength of Atlético de Madrid's second team, especially after Gao Han promoted players such as Torres, Antonio Lopez and Gabi, and introduced the two strong players of Villa and Harvey Alonso, the overall strength of the team In the second and second leagues, they are considered strong teams.
Since this is the case, skill cards can no longer be used casually, and skills must be paid attention to.
Because the skill card can only last ten minutes!
The old saying is right, good steel must be used wisely!
Or don't use it, once you use it, you must maximize the effect of the skill card!
And sometimes, retracting the fist is for punching faster, harder and more powerfully!
"What should we do now?" Cantarero also frowned, looking full of sorrow.
"They don't seem to have any intention of attacking now either."
Gao Han turned his head to the side, glanced at Francisco Soler in the head coach's bench, and smiled.
"Then spend it!"
"Consumption?"
"That's right, anyway, we're an away game, so a draw is a win, so what are you afraid of?"
Uh……
Cantarero couldn't believe it, did this sound like what Gao Han said?
Didn't he always ask the team to forge ahead and strive for more goals?
"Don't worry, under the eyes of more than 5,000 fans, I don't believe they won't come out to play!"
Even if they don't press it out, I still have a way to make them come out!
…………
…………
As the game time passed, Francisco Soler gradually couldn't sit still.
At first he was able to sit upright in the coach's bench, but gradually, he went outside, and later, he couldn't stand up anymore.
Because excited!
He felt that he had already detected the other party's intentions!
More than ten minutes have passed since the game, but Atlético Madrid's second team still has no intention of playing.
However, the two forwards of Atletico Madrid's second team brought a lot of trouble to Ourense's defense.
They cooperate with each other tacitly, their personal abilities are outstanding, and they can always seize an opportunity from time to time and create some threats.
What is even more troublesome is the No. 14, who is delayed by the midfielder of Atletico Madrid's second team.
This player's passing ability is very good, as long as the two strikers run out of space, he can always pass the ball to their feet accurately, which makes it very difficult for Ourense's players to defend.
Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, but be afraid of thieves thinking about it!
No matter how confident Soler is in his team's defense, he can't stand the harassment of Atletico Madrid's second team.
What if, in case, a player makes a mistake?
Well, even if we took another step back, the team didn't make any mistakes, and if we continue to consume like this, the two sides will draw, who will suffer?
In the duel between the two top teams, the visiting team got a draw, which can be regarded as a retreat.
What about Ourense as the home team?
Soler began to have an idea to win Atletico Madrid's second team, and Ourense is the top of the list.
But if there is a tie, Orense will still have to be inferior.
As my assistant said just now, since the other party decided to defend, I should take the initiative.
The fruit of victory representing three points is in front of you, as long as you reach out and pick it off, it belongs to you!
At this moment, Soler was finally tempted!
…………
…………
"Ourense has finally attacked!"
Cantarero was excited.
Gao Han squinted at his assistant, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Why are you so happy?"
"They're coming out!"
"and then?"
"We should press it out too."
"Fight against each other?"
Cantarero didn't say it, but it was clear in his eyes.
If you attack, you will attack, what's the matter?
Sitting with two major scorers, who is afraid of who is really playing against each other?
"not the right time yet!"
"Not the time?" Cantarero didn't understand.
Gao Han turned his head to the side and looked at the fifty-year-old man in front of the coach's bench of the home team.
"Soller is a very careful old fox. Although they pushed out, as soon as we moved, he immediately retracted and played their best defensive counterattack."
Having said that, Gao Han looked at Cantarero, "It's not like you don't know how difficult Orense's defense is!"
This is an honest sentence.
Ourense's defense is indeed quite difficult, but they started by defending and counterattacking.
"Aren't they the best at playing defensive counterattacks?"
Gao Han narrowed his eyes, "Hehe, let's fight their defensive counterattack today!"
This is called, repaying the other with the way of the other.
Cantarero was taken aback, and then suddenly realized.
With Ourense's active attack, Atletico Madrid's second team has gradually exposed its own weaknesses.
That is the central defender and the right wing!
Originally during the Zambrano period, the main lineup that ruled the roost of the Spanish Second League has fallen apart this summer. All four main players in the entire defense line have left the team, which directly led to a serious shortage of people in the defense line.
Before Gao Han took over the team, the team also promoted and introduced several defenders. Later, Gao Han promoted Antonio Lopez and Raul Camara from the second team.
The former is firmly established as the main force, but Kamara is too young and not enough, and his potential is only 130. Even if he is really cultivated to the limit, it may be difficult to gain a foothold in La Liga.
It is not worthwhile to use skill cards for this group of players!
"Sergio."
"Um?"
"Go back to the scouting department and ask for a piece of information. The two positions of center back and right back need to be strengthened."
Sergio Garcia nodded in agreement.
The transfer market has long been closed. Even if they want to introduce, at least they have to wait until January, the winter break.
But for now, let the scouts investigate and prepare.
Gao Han still has a transfer budget of 2 million euros in his hands. It is enough to fill the vacancies in these two positions.
…………
…………
On the court, Orense, who took the initiative to attack, tasted the sweetness and began to put more pressure on the defense of Atletico Madrid's second team, while the defense of the Sheets Legion became more and more precarious, especially on the right.
Soler on the sidelines immediately straightened up. He had a premonition that the goal was getting closer.
It's just a little short!
But at this moment, Gao Han took advantage of a dead ball, walked to the sidelines, called the right central defender and right back Kamara, reprimanded him harshly, and adjusted the team's defense.
After the two returned to the field, the three-star defense card and the three-star confrontation card were immediately thrown out.
The two skill cards were activated at the same time, activating the combination card effect of the iron wall.
The effect is immediate, faster than anyone else!
The right side of Atlético de Madrid’s second team, which was originally precarious, became impenetrable after the head coach made an adjustment on the sidelines, especially after seeing the vigorous performance of the No. 3 central defender and the No. 18 right back. Everyone was stunned.
But he does not believe in evil!
After many years of coaching, his rich experience told him that this is unreasonable and there must be something wrong!
As a result, Ourense continued to strengthen his troops, and he still attacked the right side of Atletico Madrid's second team.
Paradoxically, the stronger Ourense's offense is, the better and more stable the right center back and right back of the Sheets Corps will perform.
The two of them seemed to have been reborn in an instant!
Soler couldn't figure it out, no matter how hard he thought about it, he still couldn't figure it out.
But when he was distressed, Gao Han once again used the two-star assault card and the three-star attack card against Villa and Torres, forming a combination card effect of leaps and bounds, and played Orense's counterattack.
Soon, Ourense finally made a mistake.
Atletico Madrid II midfielder Xavi Alonso successfully intercepted the ball and quickly handed it to Gabi.
Gabi took the ball and went straight forward. After Torres retreated to catch the ball, he turned around and passed it diagonally behind him.
Like a bolt of lightning, Villa instantly tore through Ourense's line of defense and went straight to the goal after receiving the ball.
There is no suspense, Cucurbit Baby single-handedly broke the door!
One to zero!
