amazing coach

China has a very interesting metaphor for intensive defense, called turtle shrinking. After Alkmaar shrinks its defense, the entire formation is indeed like a turtle, with Thomasson at the front and Drogba behind him, just like a turtle.

head and neck, but Drogba has to participate in the defense of the midfield, while Klose directly returns to the midfield and becomes a defensive player, while Ronaldinho is responsible for the dual tasks of defense and offense. These eight players are like

The body of a turtle, with goalkeeper Cesar trailing behind, like the tail of a turtle.

Although the turtle's cry sounds unpleasant, it is very practical. The thick turtle shell is like an armor and cannot be broken open without a heavy hammer. If you are not careful, you may be bitten by quick sharp teeth, making it very difficult for the opponent.[]

Barcelona faced this dilemma in the last ten minutes. In the small space of the Dehout Stadium, their stars had no space to break through, let alone cooperate. What's even worse is that Alkmaar couldn't even make a pass.

Don't let Barcelona finish, only give Barcelona the opportunity to lob and long-range shots from the backcourt.

It has become a tradition for teams like Barcelona to play short passes to penetrate. Even the arrival of Van Gaal did not change the team's tradition. It only added its own tactical thinking, focusing on playing on the wing, combining the wing and center, and playing fast and fast breaks.

.

It's almost impossible for Barcelona to play long passes and attack. They don't have such staffing. Even if short passes can't be penetrated, Barcelona still keeps passing and passing around Alkmaar's penalty area.

Trying hard to find every flaw in Alkmaar.

Alkmaar's defense has always been good. Jiang Mu also attaches great importance to the team's defense, but they really don't play much intensive defense. The main reason is that no team can beat them to intensive defense. Mistakes are inevitable when defending.

, it’s just a small space, and there are many defensive players, so a player’s mistake will be immediately compensated by another player. The reaction time left for the offensive players is very short, and it is very difficult to catch it.

The game lasted until the 80th minute when Barcelona penetrated into Alkmaar's penalty area, and Enrique stepped in and faced goalkeeper Cesar directly. However, the angle from which Enrique could shoot was very small.

It tried to penetrate Cesar's crotch, but it hit Cesar's leg and bounced out.

At this moment, time no longer allows Barcelona to embroider near Alkmaar's penalty area. The short pass penetration in the middle has become inappropriate. Van Gaal has no good move at the moment, so he can only replace another forward Zenden and replace the center back Abe.

Rado uses four forwards to attack Barcelona's penalty area.

By the 80th minute, Alkmaar was leading by two goals. This huge psychological advantage allowed Alkmaar's players to play with ease, with accurate positioning, decisive clearances, and aggressive attacks. Every Alkmaar player played to their best.

High level. The Spanish commentator couldn't help but exclaimed: "Drogba is more like a defender than a defender! Ronaldinho fights like Gattuso! God, this Alkmaar team is playing crazy."

"

The Spanish commentator is right. Alkmaar is playing like crazy now. The supreme honor of defeating Barcelona and reaching the quarterfinals and the huge bonuses are all stimulating these young people like stimulants. For them,

Winning will bring luxury cars, beauties, mansions, and fame. How could they not work hard? For Barcelona, ​​winning against Alkmaar is just a normal performance, and losing to Alkmaar is a shame. Their psychological pressure has never been greater.

It was much bigger than Alkmaar from the beginning, which is also an important reason why, apart from tactics, Alkmaar was able to lead Barcelona 3:1.

As the game time passed, Barcelona became more impatient. Even smart players like Xavi and Guardiola couldn't help but start lobbing the ball into the penalty area. This shows how impatient they are, and it also shows how impatient they are.

Already at the end of their rope, there was nothing they could do against Alkmaar's intensive defense.

However, Barcelona's nonsensical scrambling puts more pressure on Alkmaar than their short passing penetration. After all, short passing penetration means falling back and forth outside the penalty area, while long passing and lobbing means the ball flies inside the penalty area.

The ball flew back and forth in front of the goal for a long time. Even if there was no Barcelona player, it was possible to head the ball into their own goal. How could the players not be under pressure?

Because Chang'e 1 monitors various physical data of the players, Jiang Mu has a very accurate grasp of the players' psychology. He sees that the players' psychological pressure is too high, their turnover rate is increasing, and their movements have become rougher than before.

Unnecessary fouls started to occur at this time. He knew that he could not continue to defend like this. Even including the stoppage time, it was less than five minutes. If he conceded a goal in these five minutes, the score of 3:2 would not be as good as the score of 2:1.

At 1:0, he took advantage of Barcelona's free kick and ordered Ronaldinho, Tomasson, Drogba, and Klose to attack, putting a little pressure on the opponent's defense and preventing the opponent from attacking unbridled.

Barcelona's free kick was right at the edge of the penalty area, and Figo took it.

At this time, Figo naturally had no intention of engaging in any tactical coordination. He fired directly and volleyed hard, trying to penetrate the wall, but the ball bounced back from the wall. However, the ball bounced back almost straight.

It just bounced back in front of Figo, and Figo followed up with another volley without thinking. By this time, the wall was in chaos, and Figo's volley flew straight to the far corner of the goal.

What a great Cesar, in an almost impossible situation, he made a flying dive, stretched his body almost to the limit, and lifted the ball over the baseline with one hand.

This first shot was well defended, and the fans in the audience burst into applause. Barcelona fans and Alkmaar fans each applauded Figo and Cesar, the protagonists of this attack and defense.

Figo waved his fist regretfully. This shot was already shot very well. The timing, power and angle were all perfect, but this little-known young boy actually saved the shot. What a bad luck.

Van Gaal was almost ready to celebrate, but the ball was saved, and he sat down with a sigh. 3:1 and 3:2 are two completely different concepts. Now he no longer expects to equalize the score, as long as he can

If they score one more goal, they will be able to return to Barcelona with some dignity, but such a good shot was saved. Barcelona's idea today is a bit wrong.

Next came Barcelona's corner kick opportunity, which was taken by Guardiola. The first corner kick Guardiola took went into the penalty area, but the referee Fricks demanded a heavy penalty because the ball was not placed in the designated position.

.The second time Guardiola took a tactical corner kick and passed the ball to full-back Sergi.

Sergi, who had been suppressed throughout the game, showed a brave performance this time. He went directly under Kronkamp and swept the ball into the penalty area with the power of his shot.

This pass is extremely threatening because it is too fast and the goalkeeper does not dare to touch it. Players in the penalty area may hit the goal if they touch it. But what is doubly surprising is that there are more than a dozen players from Barcelona and Alkmaar in the penalty area.

, but no one touched the ball and the ball flew directly out of the sideline.

This weird scene shocked all the fans in the audience, and they all talked about how the ball managed to avoid being kicked by dozens of pairs of feet.

Barcelona's two threatening attacks strengthened Alkmaar's players' determination to counterattack. After Riise threw the ball to Ronaldinho, Barcelona's players kicked the ball out immediately without closing their feet.

When Riise passed the ball to Ronaldinho again, Litmanning directly kicked Ronaldinho with his legs and the ball, and the ball flew out of the sideline again.

The referee Fricks whistled for a foul on Litmanen and awarded Alkmaar a free kick in the backcourt.

This time Ronaldinho did not directly pass the ball to Thomason. He and Riise played a small role and dribbled the ball forward. When Litmanen came up again, Ronaldinho did not foul him again.

Opportunity, he accelerated and broke through Litmanning's defense. Then before Guardiola came up, he passed the long ball to the empty right wing to find Drogba.

Drogba saw that there was no one around, so he took the ball from the wing towards Barcelona's half.

Sergi had already assisted Drogba in the frontcourt. When he saw Drogba assisting with the ball, he immediately accelerated to chase back, trying to intercept Drogba's ball. Drogba's dribbling speed was not fast, but because of

Jiang Mu's order, Alkmaar's offensive players are now scattered, appearing on the left, center and right lines. Drogba can lead or pass, there are many options. Seeing Serge approaching, Drogba takes the ball

Passed to the middle to look for Klose.

Because Barcelona replaced center back Abelardo, now only De Boer is marking Thomason in the middle, while Klose is followed by Xavi.

But Drogba, the big black man, is a big man and has great wisdom. When he saw Xavi following Klose, he passed a high ball.

Klose's header was the first in Alkmaar. It's a joke for Xavi to compete with Klose for the header. He could only use his body to lean on Klose and try to block Alkmaar's goal with a foul.

Counterattack.

Xavi used his own header to look at Klose's header skills. He thought he could rely on Klose, but he didn't expect that Klose was very capable of staying in the air. He stayed in the air and then flicked the header to the goal.

Van Bommel from behind.

Van Bommel came in very quickly, with only teammate Thomason and central defender De Boer in front of him.

Although De Boer knew the danger of Thomason, he could only abandon Thomason to guard against Bomel at this time.

When there is only one central defender left and the opponent has two offensive players, even if the central defender is the best in the world, there is nothing you can do at this time unless the opponent makes a mistake.

Van Bommel didn't show off or be greedy for credit. He passed the ball directly behind De Boer.

At this time, Thomason, who was running back with De Boer, suddenly turned back to catch the ball. Because Serge was closer to the goalkeeper than Thomason on the wing, Thomason made a beautiful anti-offside move.

Thomasson, who had formed a single goal, did not waste the opportunity. Facing goalkeeper Baia, he pushed the lower left corner of the goal and scored the fourth goal of the game, which also ended Barcelona's final madness.
