Fox in the Penalty Area

Remember [New] in a second! The head coaches of the two teams did not arrange much at halftime, and there were very few adjustments.

The main reason is that they are very familiar with each other, even if there are any changes and adjustments, they can all guess it. . .

For example, the Madrid Pirates will strengthen the high-position press to contain the King's offense and at the same time gain more offensive opportunities. This is one of the tactics commonly used by the Madrid Pirates.

Since they mainly focus on passing and controlling, how can they not use high positions to press?

The advantages of pass control combined with high-position press, the power is amazing.

Similarly, the King of Madrid has a player with super individual combat ability like Meli, and a strong high center forward Ryan Vandenberg with first-class ball ability. Naturally, it is impossible to deal with the Madrid Pirates in the midfield.

Instead, he will try to play the football forward as much as possible, pass the midfield quickly, and hand the ball to Meli.

Therefore, compared with the rivals in the same city, the King of Madrid puts more emphasis on moving forward and speed.

Not only Meli, but other players will try their best to increase their speed during the game and reduce cross passes or return passes. Although this will increase the error rate, once successful, it may penetrate the pirate's defense and create a very deadly opportunity.

The characteristics of the two teams are so distinct, and they are very familiar with each other. It can be said that the other party knows exactly what shit he is going to do when he lifts his ass.

Such a familiar opponent basically fights with hard power and luck, and it is difficult to take advantage of it.

Neither team made any substitutions at halftime, and the second half was simply a swap of venues.

Mohammad Osay continued to press on Maxi Carey, who quickly diverted the ball away from his press, trying not to let the opponent entangle him.

However, there is no way to speed up the ball to sort out the midfield in an orderly manner. Most of Carey transfers the ball to the two sides, using the cross ability of the side to threaten the goal of the King of Madrid.

Conversely, if the Kings of Madrid get the ball, they will directly pass the ball forward to find their high center forward Van den Berg. At the same time, Serrados and Meli pay great attention to competing for the second spot.

At the same time, because he passed through the midfield quickly, Dudu Carlos did not need to stay behind, but could press up and increase the offensive point.

After the start of the second half, the two teams played very lively just like this.

"Hu Lai—oh, what a pity!"

In the TV broadcast, the football passed diagonally in front of the King of Madrid,

Hu Lai, who was at the back point, threw his whole body and shoveled towards the football, but missed the football.

But Hu Lai is not to blame for the ball, because when Di Kunzo kicked, no one knew whether he was crossing or shooting.

That's why he shook King Madrid's defender and goalkeeper at the same time, so that neither of them touched the ball.

But it also shook the teammates of the Madrid Pirates.

Only Hu Lai had the fastest reaction, but he still couldn't catch up. He could only watch helplessly as the football slipped past his toes, and finally rolled out of the baseline...

The Madrid Pirates fans were aroused by Hou Lai's kick.

Then he was frightened by Melly and Serados.

"Merry! Merry! Merry!"

In the continuous chants of the commentator Sanchez, Meli dribbled sideways, passed a Madrid Pirates player, passed another, and then when everyone thought he was going to take a stance to shoot, he put the ball with his right foot. Pushed into the space at the far end of the Pirates penalty area in Madrid.

Serrados shot directly after receiving the ball. Although the angle was not too big, the quality of the shot was very high.

Hywell fell to the ground and threw the ball sideways, using his fingers to pull the incoming ball out of the far baseline.

"Heywell! Wonderful save!"

There are so many scenes where you come and go.

The two rival teams who are familiar with each other played a very exciting scene.

The pace of the game is very fast, of course, the accompanying mistakes are also increasing.

but it does not matter.

The technical and tactical gold content of this kind of derby between deadly enemies is not the most important thing, what is important is the intensity and fighting spirit.

The fans can completely accept that the two teams played rough and their tactics were simple. But it is absolutely unacceptable for everyone to walk on the court in a civilized and undisciplined manner.

The more exciting the game, the better.

But there is a side effect of doing this, that is... faster physical energy consumption.

"Ah..." Parotti on the sidelines suddenly let out a low cry, which attracted the attention of assistant coach Valentine.

"What's wrong?"

"We've fallen into the king's rhythm..." Parotti frowned as he watched the heated game going on. "When we were attacking, we were supposed to be slowing down and passing back and forth to find opportunities and spaces. But they made us play faster by pressing Kyrie, so we made more mistakes. Although they also made mistakes. , but still more adapted to this fast-paced game than us..."

Valentine also reacted when he heard the words: "Moreover, Carey's physical fitness..."

"That's right, Kyrie's stamina is depleting faster than usual."

While the two were talking, Kyrie on the court was "walking"-he was pacing slowly.

Now is the time for the King of Madrid to attack, and Carey did not actively return to defense as he did in the first half, chasing desperately.

He walked back slowly at the front.

Of course, this is not because Carey is trying to be lazy, but because he is exhausted.

Parotti raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was the fifty-ninth minute of the game, and it was less than an hour. Is Carey's physical strength about to bottom out?

Although he was not allowed to play for a minute in the weekend league, it seems that it is obviously impossible to restore his physical fitness to the best state just by resting that game.

"If Kyrie is replaced, our offense will definitely not be as smooth as in the first half." Valentine said next to him.

Parotti was silent.

No talk of keeping Kyrie on the court, but no talk of replacing him, either.

He is still hesitating and struggling.

Because whether it is to replace Carey or keep Carey, it is necessary and makes sense.

The key is what will happen after you make a choice.

With Carey replaced, the Pirates' offense wasn't as sharp. Now the score is 1:1. After the offense is not so sharp, does it mean that we will accept a draw at home?

But keeping Carey, the Pirates would have one less player, and it would be even more difficult to defend. Even Hu Lai actively returned to defense, and Carey became the top Pirates player instead.

This is indeed a somewhat tricky situation.

Parrotti was infected by the atmosphere of the derby before, and inadvertently ignored the impact of the opponent's speed increase on his physical fitness. Because if Carey is a player who has participated in the game normally for a season, then no matter how fast the opponent's pace is, it will not cause his physical energy to be consumed so quickly.

But Carey is a "wounded soldier" who has been on truce for most of the season and cannot conduct systematic training.

He thought that Royvi asked Osai to fight Carey hand-to-hand, which was the King of Madrid's defensive strategy against Carey. Thinking about it now, maybe this kind of physical exertion is the real move to target Carey's weakness.

※※※

Although Parrotti didn't let assistant coach Valentine rush to call up backup center Ruiz from the bench, Kyrie realized on the court that he might not be on the court for long.

Know your own situation.

Although after a 15-minute intermission, Orsay harassed him almost everywhere, consuming a lot of his physical energy.

In order not to lose the ball on his own side, he had to put up 12 points of energy and at the same time use 120% of his strength to fight against it.

All these made his physical strength drain as quickly as the biggest faucet.

Kyrie never thought he would be able to play a full game in a game like the Champions League semi-finals after returning from injury, but he was not reconciled to being replaced after only an hour.

He cast his eyes on the coach's bench.

The head coach Parotti and the first assistant coach Valentine stood side by side. The two of them covered their mouths and put their heads together. They didn't know what they were talking about.

Carey thought that 80% of this had something to do with him.

Maybe they are discussing whether they should replace themselves...

※※※

Royvi looked away from the coach seat next door, and he noticed the whispering between Parotti and Valentine.

At the same time, I also noticed the performance of Carey during this period of time on the court.

Then he gave a very veiled smile.

From the time he knew that Parotti let Carey start, he knew that the tactical arrangements and training of the Madrid Pirates during this period must have been formulated with Carey on the court.

So if Carey can get off the field early, the pirate's offensive threat will naturally become smaller.

Looking at it now, he is about to succeed.

Just wait for Parotti to replace Carey, and he will make the team suddenly exert their strength and beat the Pirates by surprise!

He also raised his wrist and looked at his watch. The game time just jumped to 60 minutes.

It's almost the same, it seems that Parotti is still a little hesitant...

Then help him make this decision!

Royvi walked to the sidelines, whistled first, and then made gestures, signaling the players to go up and grab the ball when Kyrie got the ball. It doesn't matter if they foul this time, anyway, they want the Madrid Pirates to realize that Kyrie has become their The biggest weakness on the field is that you can't get rid of it without substituting.
