Although Atalanta reorganized the offensive, the Wolves' defense was already familiar with Atalanta's offensive routine. They knew their opponents very well, but their opponents did not know them.

The usual sideline crosses lasted until the 60th minute, but there was no achievement. And the 10th corner kick Atalanta got, like the previous 9, did not pose any substantial threat and was solved by the "Rukui" combination.

"It's almost time, how are their physical condition?" Wei Le turned around, the time had come to the 65th minute, and he turned back to ask physical coach Sergio Perez.

(In Chapter 284, it was written that the data analysis team provided assistance to the Wolves coaching staff during the game. Later, I checked the football rules at that time and found that such contact was not allowed at that time, so the previous plot has been modified.)

(If readers find any plot that does not conform to the rules at that time, you can tell me in the paragraph comment, chapter comment, etc., I will see it and modify it in time~)

Sergio Perez and Mark Hux exchanged opinions. They both believed that after 65 minutes of fierce competition, Atalanta's game state was far worse than the beginning of the game.

And Atalanta has not changed players yet.

The Wolves were unable to score another goal through defensive counterattacks, and Wei Le wanted to take the initiative to change.

Now, he wants to control the midfield!

"Donny (Van de Beek), go warm up! It's your turn to play!" Van de Beek received the order, clapped his hands with De Paul who was sitting next to him, and ran to the warm-up area on the sidelines.

A few minutes later, Jota trotted down. He clapped his hands with Van de Beek and sent Van de Beek onto the court.

"Go, kill them!"

Van de Beck made an OK gesture to Jota while running.

So, the formation on the field changed. The Wolves' formation changed from a 4-4-2 with two defensive midfielders to a 4-3-3, with Rodri as the central midfielder on the left and Van de Beck close to the right.

Gasperini looked at Wei Le with some worry. He was still communicating with Jota. The two were talking and laughing, and seemed to have a plan for the game.

Gasperini immediately understood what Wei Le meant. Now that the energy was almost consumed, Wei Le was going to try to control the midfield!

Controlling the midfield actually means controlling Atlanta's lifeline. But Gasperini didn't think that just replacing Van de Beck would affect the situation on the field.

After all, Atlanta was tired, and Wolves should be tired too. But...

"Damn, why aren't they tired?" Atlanta hadn't made any substitutions yet, and right wingback Hartbauer couldn't hold on any longer. The game time came to the 70th minute, and the Wolves' pressing became more intense.

Especially Van de Beek, his coverage is very wide, and he can pose some threats to Atlanta's backcourt players at any time.

"Keep mobilizing the opponent's defense line!!" Wei Le shouted loudly on the sidelines, making a left-right pulling motion with his hands.

In the 78th minute, Rodri's long shot from the outside of the penalty area brushed the top of the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line, making all Atlanta fans present sweat.

This long shot was like a horn of charge, and the Wolves' counterattack began. Van de Beek, who came on the field, brought the Wolves a point to receive the ball forward, and the three central defenders of Atlanta, who were already stretched to the limit, had begun to be confused.

In the 81st minute, Atlanta made two consecutive adjustments. Gasperini replaced the center forward Petagna with the forward Cornelius; and replaced Masiello, who received a yellow card, with the central defender Caldara.

Still in 3-5-2, Gasperini did not replace any of the players in the wingback positions on both sides after weighing the pros and cons for a long time.

Hartbauer's cross was intercepted by the Wolves' defense line and passed directly to Dendoncker in the backcourt.

Dendoncker turned his back to the direction of attack and passed the ball horizontally to Alphonso Davies on the left. At the same time, as Wei Le arranged, right-back Doherty retracted, and Alphonso Davies had already started!

The same routine, the same big stride, Alphonso Davies directly dribbled the ball past the tired Hartbauer. But this time, he did not rush forward.

He observed that many players in blue and black jerseys were approaching him. He counted and there were 5!

He knew that this was what Wei Le emphasized, creating overload opportunities on the wing? Alphonso Davies was not the only one who saw this opportunity. Rodri squeezed out from the gap between the crowd and waved to Alphonso Davies secretly.

Alphonso Davies made a gesture to continueBreaking through, he used the outside of his right foot to pass the ball secretly. The encirclement of Alphonso Davies was scattered immediately, and Rodri turned around and made a long pass to the right!

Jovic, a player with an advantage in height, headed the ball to Almiron on the periphery. Almiron, who had been silent in this game, began to show off his skills.

Facing the double-teaming of Caldara and Castagne, he easily got out of the two people's closed defense, like a slippery fish jumping back into the river from the hands of the fisherman!

Almiron broke into the penalty area and passed the ball to the front of the goal with his right foot!

Trossard was in place! He was now facing the goal, but facing Berisha, his ankle shook, and the outside of his right foot hit the inside of the ball, and the ball rolled away from the goal!

With just this move, Rafael Toloy, who was chasing, almost flew out directly!

Did the ball go off the net?

A yellow figure emerged from the crowd, the number 22 rustling, like a young general riding a white horse, Van de Beek's instep hit the back of the football!

Bang! !

The huge impact sound could be heard even by the fans sitting in the last row!

In the noisy environment, the sound of the football hitting the net was clearly audible!

The ball went in! ! !

Van de Beek's forward goal expanded the score to 2-0!

"Oh my God! At the last moment of the game, when everyone thought the dust had settled, the young attacking midfielder Van de Beek rushed up and said, 'I don't agree!'"

"There is nothing wrong with this forward goal. From any angle, it is an extremely wonderful counterattack goal! Wolves played Atlanta around. Compared with the orderly Wolves, Atlanta's players seemed to be running wild like wild horses!"

Van de Beek made a shut-up gesture to the noisy Atlanta fans who booed, which of course caused greater anger among Italian fans, but Van de Beek didn't care!

Someone tried to throw objects into the stadium through the baffle, but was blocked by security personnel holding shields. Amid the insults and urging, Van de Beek was surrounded by his teammates and returned to the scope of the stadium.

"It's over!" Wei Le laughed and turned around, hugging his assistants passionately: "The first victory is today!"

"Yes! Today!!!"
