Chapter 239: Against Vicenza 1

Hugo sighed, what a good opportunity, but he was just a little unlucky. The goalkeeper of Vicenza stood in a good position and subconsciously saved Toni's shot. Toni slammed the ground hard, got up from the ground, and gave a thumbs up to the young Cristiano.

Cristiano Ronaldo smiled. In fact, he wanted to shoot, but Vicenza's Portuguese defender Fesca fell to the ground first, blocking Ronaldo's shooting angle. Ronaldo reacted quickly and picked out an opportunity with a stroke of genius.

"Mr. Zeman stood on the sidelines, directing the team to press forward. It seems that he wants Trapani to score as soon as possible! This season, if Trapani scores in the first half, the probability of winning the game is relatively high. If they don't score in the first half, Trapani's scoring rate in the second half will be low!" Agostino, as a senior Trapani expert, spoke clearly about Trapani's situation.

"Miku! Miku! Miku received Maggio's cross pass and shot hard! Alas! What a pity, it was just a hair's breadth away!" Trapani almost scored again in the eighth minute. This time it was Miku's chance. Miku's form had improved in the two games before the winter break. He contributed one goal and two assists in the two games. His long-range shooting skills in the front position of the penalty area are still quite good. Maggio's cross pass, he dodged the opponent's midfielder, swung his leg in place, the power was not great, but the arc was very good, and he almost hit the near corner. If it hit the goal frame, this sudden shot probably would not have been saved by Vicenza goalkeeper Sterkeler.

Watching the game live is different from watching it on TV. Sigrino stood up, but the ball still didn't go in. Some people sat down dejectedly. The stadium was filled with regrets. Trapani's membership sales continued to rise this season. This season, 7,000 members were sold, which is a pretty good number. Barbera's home game has an average of more than 10,000 people attending each game. When it comes to the Sicily derby, the team's home field has more people.

Many local people in Palermo have also begun to like Trapani's style. Trapani is always a team that wants to attack. Although there may not be so many shots, there are more forward passes, rather than the habitual round-about wars like other teams.

After only ten minutes, Zeman raised his wrist to look at his watch. He was a little regretful that he hadn't scored a goal for so long. When Vicenza topped the scoreboard for more than 20 minutes, I'm afraid it would be difficult for his team to score so easily again.

"Be more direct, move closer to the center! Move closer to the center!" Zeman kept making gestures. He wanted Ronaldo and Maggio to move closer to the center, and then make room for the full-backs to increase the number of people in the dangerous area of ​​Vicenza's penalty area.

Zeman is such a coach. Once the initial method fails to open the situation, he does not want to slow down, but wants to score. Only after scoring will he let the team slow down a little, but he will still insist on scoring!

Vicenza's coach began to arrange Vicenza to retreat, deploy defense in his own half, and narrow the defensive space. Trapani's response is to try to open up the width, with the full-backs pressing forward and the wingers going inward!

In the 15th minute, Trapani finally scored the first goal!

Miku's organization was reliable. Trapani passed the ball about six or seven times in the opponent's half. After Miku got the ball, he dodged and pretended to shoot, attracting the opponent's players to block it. As a result, he passed the ball diagonally to the side. The defender Bosingwa, who came in, shot directly near the corner of the penalty area. Sterkel was caught off guard and made a mistake in his defensive action. The ball was hit in the center of the penalty area. Toni jumped high from the crowd and headed the ball. The power was not strong, but the angle was right. He hit the opposite corner of Sterkel and headed the ball into the empty goal!

"Tony goa.............l! At the critical moment, we still look to our captain Luca Toni! Toni scored his twelfth league goal this season! He is currently the top scorer! Let's cheer for him! Luca.........Tony!" Agostino screamed in the live broadcast room. It is different from before. He used to be a live broadcaster, but not now. Trapani specially invited a live broadcaster. Comrade Agostino's main identity now is a reporter and a live commentator for the radio station. He still habitually dragged out the long tone, which is very charming!

Toni put his hands to his ears and ran to the fan area, listening to the fans shouting his name, with a happy smile on his face!

Toni has been in the spotlight for a long time, but he is the most loyal fighter of the team. He doesn't even have an agent. Such a loyal fighter is naturally very popular with Trapani fans. There are also many news in the media about who has taken a fancy to Toni again, but all Trapani fans don't believe that their captain will leave, nor do they believe that Hugo will sell Toni!

Cristiano jumped onto Toni's back from behind and waved his fists at the fans!

This ball was a bit of luck, but it went in after all. Zeman breathed a sigh of relief. Trapani can take a break. Zeman is not an ignorant old man. He just focuses on offense, which does not mean that he does not value defense. If he really only knows how to attack, he would not be able to lead so many weak teams to the first division!

Trapani's current situation is top-heavy, and Zeman is also working hard to improve this. The arrival of Miku is a key step in his vision to change the team's defensive quality. He uses Miku's guidance and organization to reduce the team's defensive pressure. Who knows that Miku has not played many good games in half a season.

Whistling, Zeman signaled the team to slow down the pace and reduce the intensity of the pressing. The shortcomings of a forward like Toni are also obvious. They have been magnified this season. His mobility is insufficient. Last season, he was in the lower level C-1. It is not obvious in the league, but it is different in Serie B. The level here is really different from that in Serie C. Zeman advocates high-position pressing in the frontcourt, but Toni, the key piece, lacks the mobility , he was unable to effectively form a blockade chain with his frontcourt teammates, which resulted in Trapani's on-the-spot counterattacks being reduced a lot this season. On-the-spot counterattacks happen to be one of Trapani's important scoring methods.

Coupled with various other factors, Trapani's offensive efficiency this season is not high, and the number of goals scored is not high.

Moreover, Tony has completed fifteen league games this season, including this game. He started all of them and scored twelve league goals. It seems like a lot, but the characteristic is uneven. In fifteen league games, he scored a hat-trick in one game. Magic scored twice in three games. In the other eleven league games, he only scored three goals, which also affected the team's results.

Zeman is slowly working hard to change the team. He also needs a new scorer to share the pressure on Tony. Last season, the team's main scorer was Miccoli and Drogba. They are done. It is very good, echoing Tony, and is a key factor in Trapani's strong offense. This season, Trapani's midfielder and frontcourt have never had forwards like Miccoli and Drogba emerge!

Therefore, even with Miku in Trapani's transfer market, it is a failure, so it is not unreasonable that many media are not optimistic about Trapani's upgrade journey.

Miku began to perform another kind of responsibility on the court, linking up and trying to help the team keep the ball in their hands. After half a season and more than ten games, Miku may not be in good condition, but he has a tacit understanding with his teammates. Finally, he came out a lot, and his passing success rate continued to increase. In the first two games, he felt enlightened again.

This game also started to have some inspiration. The triangle between Miku, Mascherano and Padoin was relatively close. Mascherano and Padoin's passing ability was not bad either. Padoin focused on the key points. It is diligence, while Mascherano is more accurate in stealing and has a better sense of position than Padoin. Therefore, Padoin is often positioned slightly forward, while Mascherano focuses on defense, basically He rarely pushes forward unless Miku asks him to go up and provide support.

Seeing that under the leadership of Miku, Trapani was running smoothly. Miku sometimes used sharp shots to break through the opponent's blockade, and sometimes led Trapani to deal with the opponent. Hugo couldn't help but watch this. Don't say: "Joao, at least until now, I think he is worth my 6 million euro transfer fee!"

"I don't see what's good about him! He just missed another great opportunity!" Sigrino said blankly.

Lu Fan, Giorgio, Selly and others all laughed. Not every fan needs to know a lot about football. Don’t look at our old Mr. Cigrino doing fan business. He has watched football for so many years, but he still loves it very much. Purely, a forward who can score goals is a good forward, a midfielder who can score goals is also a good midfielder, and a defender who can score goals must be a good defender!

"Uncle Cigrino, can I say that you don't understand football?!" Hugo said with a smile, "Look at him, he can help our team control the situation in the midfield, and sometimes he When we need a penetrating pass, he can pass it out, giving us the opportunity to threaten the opponent's goal! Zeman does have some offensive skills, but the defense is too bad. Miku's performance today is what we want. What you need to see is that he can make the midfield run smoothly, keep our formation compact, and not give the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of it. The first half is almost over now, and I didn’t see Vicenza bring us anything. What a threat! On the contrary, we can expand our lead, but we lack a little luck!"

"What do you mean, I understand a little bit! He is a bit like Deco! No wonder without Deco, many people say that Trapani will not be able to survive!" Sigrino did not rely on his old skills, but was very open-minded. said.
