amazing coach

After 30 minutes, the Norwegians once again took the initiative in the game, and the number of shots they took was much higher than that of Alkmaar. After all, their style of play was more concise, and there was almost no need for organization through the midfield. The role of the midfielder in the Rosenborg team was

Insert a long shot or a header in the penalty area.

However, the three defensive midfielders arranged by Jiang Mu before the game worked at this time. The height was not enough and the width was needed to make up for it. Alkmaar tried his best to resist, but he could barely resist. The key now is who scores the second goal of the game.

The problem is, if Alkmaar scores a goal, they can recover deeply and hit Rosenberg behind. It will be a disaster for Rosenberg. If Rosenberg equalizes the score, their backcourt will definitely not press, but only

They will use long-range artillery shells to support the frontcourt, so Rosenberg has a greater chance of winning.

Jiang Mu also saw this. The offense on the two wings was not ambiguous at all because of the lead. They had to kill the game. It is never safe to lead only by one goal. Playing with pressure will only make one's own side miserable.

More tired.

After Ronaldinho made consecutive decisive passes, the entire Rosenberg team had realized how powerful this buck-toothed Brazilian boy was. They no longer dared to let him easily get the ball, let alone dribble, for fear of losing again.

Stalander, who received a yellow card, simply turned into a man-marking defender, following Ronaldinho, trying not to let Ronaldinho catch the ball and turn around. Midfielder Berg was always protecting Stalander, and Rosenberg almost used one and a half men.

In exchange for Ronaldinho, he can contain Ronaldinho, the starting point of the attack.

Because Ronaldinho's performance was so outstanding, Rosenberg ignored Alkmaar's other organizer, Van Bommel! Yes, it was him, the Dutchman. Before Ronaldinho arrived, he was actually half an organizer. Last season

When Altidore was injured, Van Bommel once supported Alkmaar's midfield organization by himself. Just because Ronaldinho's organizational skills were so good, Van Bommel could only make a transition from defense to defense, and the organization of the frontcourt offense was completely lost.

Not here anymore.

When Ronaldinho stormed the left wing, Riise and Kuyt stormed the right wing, Rosenberg's defense in the middle was pulled away. Van Bommel was already ready to make a move under Jiang Mu's signal. In the 25th minute of the game, Van Bommel

A long pass was passed to Thomason behind him, but because the two people did not have a tacit understanding of passing and running, the ball was confiscated by goalkeeper Arason. Thomason was also eager to chase the ball, and he staggered and fell to the ground, which attracted Rosenborg.

The fans laughed loudly.

Laughing at the opponents' mistakes is one of the fun for fans, but their performance angered the Danish striker even more, and he became more active in looking for any chance to score.

In the 35th minute of the game, Ronaldinho received a pass from Van Bommel in the middle, but under Starander's close defense, he could only pass the ball back to Kronkamp.

Seeing that there was no chance here, Kronkamp immediately moved to the left to look for Kuyt.

Kuyt sprinted towards the court. Under the tracking and defense of Rosenberg's midfielder, Kuyt hooked the ball to Riise behind him. Riise took the ball and attacked from the side. After being closely marked by the right back,

Next, Riise had no choice but to pass the ball back to the midfield.

After Ronaldinho, Kuyt and others repeatedly pulled on the wing, Rosenberg's midfield defense was left with only two center backs, and Thomason stood beside the two center backs Hofton and Basma.

Cruising sideways.

As soon as Van Bommel received the ball, Thomason started to start immediately. Van Bommel did not live up to the trust of his teammates at this time. He immediately launched a very fast ground ball.

When Van Bommel passed the ball, Thomason had already run diagonally to a position parallel to the center back Basma who was slightly further back. When the ball rolled halfway, Thomason had already moved the two center backs one meter away.

How far.

Basma and Hofton knew they couldn't catch up, so they still chased while raising their hands to signal Thomason that the ball was offside.

The linesman had just seen clearly from the sidelines that Thomason was not in an offside position when Van Bommel passed the ball, so he ignored the Rosenberg defender's signal.

Direct pass and diagonal insertion! A textbook-like coordination routine!

Although the distance between Arasson and the back line was not too far, the change was like lightning. When Rosenborg's goalkeeper Arasson attacked, he only had half of the ball with Thomasson.

Thomason remembered the lesson of the last one-on-one. When Rosenberg goalkeeper Arassen attacked, he did not choose to pass the goalkeeper. Instead, when Arassen intercepted, he cunningly rubbed the ball with his toes, and then quickly

He retracted his legs and pounced forward, avoiding Arason. The goalkeeper and forward both turned into rolling gourds, but the ball leisurely flew up from the ground and bounced towards the goal.

Hofton chased desperately from behind, trying to intercept the ball before it hit the net, but when he caught up and kicked it, the ball had already entered the goal line, and his big foot just kicked the ball onto the net above.

without changing any results.

2:0

Thomasson's single shot gave Alkmaar a 2:0 away lead.

When Thomason saw the ball hit the net, he got up from the ground, turned around and ran towards the stands, patting his chest and roaring.

At this time, the people of Alkmaar went crazy. Thousands of fans stood up, waved their fists vigorously, shouted at the stadium, and stretched out two fingers.

"goalgoalgoalgoalgoal...a beautiful goal! A classic textbook combination. This is the essence of Dutch football. The ground forces defeated the air force. In football, the ball is kicked with the feet, not with the head...

Leading by two goals, Alkmaar has shown its dark horse nature. Now the Norwegians have no choice but to press hard, otherwise what awaits them is the humiliation of losing at home..."

Van Bommel, who assisted, was also very excited. He roared, turned around and ran to the sidelines, hugging Jiang Mu who was waving his arms, "Haha, we scored!"

"Well done!" Jiang Mu patted Van Bommel's head, "Mark, keep working hard, every player has the responsibility to attack."

"Yes! Yes! I understand!" This was what Van Bommel was waiting for, and he nodded his head like he was pecking at rice.

Arne Egan's face turned pale in an instant. His opponent still scored the second goal, which made his heart freeze. Although it cannot be said that because of this game, the group will not be able to qualify, but the prospect is definitely not good.

Yes, he wondered if this team was the same team as the team in the warm-up match? Why was there such a big gap in strength?

Trailing by two goals, Rosenborg had no way out. They had to score goals and attack without any hesitation.

Arne Egan made a decisive substitution in the first half. The full-back Stalander, who was holding a yellow card and playing very hesitantly, was replaced. Another full-back Saarinen came on. This was a substitution.

It means that Arne Egan is going to use unconventional means against Ronaldinho.

This determined and life-threatening mentality had a huge impact on the two teams whose strength was not much different. After Alkmaar scored the second goal, Rosenberg took all the initiative, and the two wingers pressed

When he came out to play against Alkmaar, Ronaldinho, who was technically superior, was treated with naked violence by his opponent. Whenever Ronaldinho got the ball, he would foul him.

After Rosenberg fell behind by two goals, the referee made some loose penalties. He obviously wanted to take care of the balance of the game. In this way, Ronaldinho became a victim, and his technical advantage was almost abolished, leaving him alone.

Great speed and passing ability.

Jiang Mu was well prepared for Rosenberg's desperate efforts. He stood on the sidelines and shouted for the players to hold on, boldly pressing out and not giving the opponent a chance to cross from the wing. Because for such a leading team, the winger

Crosses pose a greater threat.

However, Rosenberg's aerial advantage was indeed not ambiguous. When the game went into the 43rd minute, Ronaldinho's right wing could not hold up at first, and his opponent broke through the defense. Saarinen passed a quick and fast shot from the bottom line.

Quick cross.

Cesar did not dare to attack, and Lucio did not reach the front point. Ismael and John Carew fell into a disadvantage in the competition for the top, and was snatched by the Norwegian long man, and the ball went straight to the top of the goal.

At this time, Cesar showed a superhuman reaction. He blocked John Carew's header from close range with his hand.

Corner kick!

The stands became very divided. Some fans cheered loudly, some sighed with regret, and some stamped their feet and beat their chests.

The Norwegian players saw that there was not much time left in the first half, and all the big men rushed into the penalty area to fight for the header.

Rosenberg's aerial advantage brought a lot of psychological pressure to Alkmaar. There was chaos in the penalty area. John Carew suddenly broke away from Ismail the moment before the corner kick was taken. Ismail looked at the defense and rushed forward.

He was not as explosive as John Carew. In just half a step, Saarinen took a corner kick. John Carew dive bombed and headed the ball into the near corner.

Cesar was unable to save this thundering header and could only watch the ball hit the net.

1:2

After scoring the goal, John Carew rushed to the corner flag crazily, pulled up the corner flag, and waved it in the air domineeringly.

The entire stadium erupted at this time. They waved their arms and did the Mexican wave, and sang a song dedicated to Carew, "There is only one Carew! He is the God of War in the air, he is our bomber...

"

Rosenborg head coach Arne Egen's celebration behavior was very special. He rushed from the sidelines to the coaching bench excitedly and slapped the windshield hard, which made people laugh and cry.

"goalgoalgoalgoal... John Carew! Rosenberg's header king finally broke through Alkmaar's defense, and the score became 1 to 2! Before the end of the first half, the Norwegian leading team still used their aerial advantage to pull

A point back also brought a little hope for an equalizer and reversal. In this way, the game became more exciting. Let us thank Carew for his header, which did not make the game lose suspense..."

Jiang Mu and Lin Nazhou smiled wryly and spread their hands. They had no choice. Their air defense capabilities were only so good. They couldn't prevent all the opponent's headers. The one in front was already Cesar's extraordinary performance. There was nothing Cesar could do about this ball.

None.

There was only one minute of stoppage time in the first half. After Alkmaar kicked off the ball, the referee blew the final whistle before the ball reached Rosenberg's half. Both players walked to the locker room unsatisfied.

, prepare for a more intense battle in the second half.
