///Chapter 422 has some errors. I have corrected it today and it should be fine. ///

After Bowen broke through on the right side, he did not cut inside, but made a long pass directly across the penalty area and came to the other end of the court.

"Very good cross! Very wide field of vision!"

Trossard made another cross at this time, and Haaland shot the ball! Fortunately, De Vrij flew to block the hole and blocked the ball out of bounds. A corner kick opportunity was created.

Wolves' set-pieces are very powerful now, and exquisite set-piece tactics are emerging in an endless stream. Seeing four or five Wolves players who are nearly 190cm tall standing in the penalty area, Lazio's defenders were really worried.

Fortunately, Maguire's header was a little off, higher than the goal and flew out of the bottom line. All the Lazio fans watching the game were slightly relieved. Unexpectedly, Strakosha, who seemed to be stunned before, made a mistake in the goal kick and passed the ball directly to Trossard on the wing, causing another wave of chaos.

"My problem, sorry." Strakosha raised his hand to apologize with a painful expression, and Trossard's hasty shot was still out of the range of the goal frame. Lazio players now understand Strakosha's feelings. They feel that the Wolves playing now are not the same team as the team they met at home!

Time passed by minute by minute, and Lazio's backcourt pass was intercepted by Rodri and Dendoncker in the midfield. Bowen and Jota frequently returned to defense to help the midfielders share the pressure.

Trossard in front quietly moved in the dangerous area, telling Lazio's defenders-he is still here, don't press on!

In this case, the initiative was completely controlled by the Wolves. It seems that Lazio's defense is very solid, but the data does not lie. Wolves' 91% pass success rate is in sharp contrast to Lazio's less than 75% pass success rate.

Lazio does not seem to have any advantage in defense at all. Instead, it can only block and save the opponent at the last step.

In just 20 minutes, Wolves made 7 shots, 4 of which hit the goal frame, resulting in 1 goal.

This efficiency is not low, and if we consider that the last game was away, Wolves only made 8 shots in 90 minutes, then the performance of this game can be said to be significantly improved.

However, although Wolves did not score again, Wolves controlled the initiative of offense and controlled the direction of the game, which brought more influences far beyond the game itself.

That is the psychology of the players.

Thiago Motta is of course watching the live broadcast of the game now. When the camera gave a close-up of Strakosha's somewhat nervous and excited face, Thiago Motta suddenly thought of a point that Wei Le had put forward when he was on the phone with Wei Le that day.

The technical and tactical level of football is certainly important, but whether it can be played out on the field depends on what the players think.

When this point of view was thrown out, Motta's first reaction was to disagree. He knew that the current problem of Wolves is a psychological problem, but he thinks that many teams' problems are more in the technical and tactical level. Psychology is important, but it is definitely not a decisive factor.

But after playing this game so far, Motta seems to understand what Wei Le meant.

When attacking, the players are excited and excited. They control the game and take the initiative. The opponent needs to respond according to their actions.

After all, the purpose of attacking is to score goals, and the purpose of scoring goals is to win.

But when defending, the situation is different.

The defensive players will not be very happy, especially when they are behind in the score and there is an external crisis that they cannot win the game. At this time, the defensive players are very nervous, fearing that one of their mistakes will ruin the team's good situation.

The mentality of the players will be cautious and careful.

Up to now, Wolves have taken the initiative in this game, while Lazio has been suppressed. Lazio players watched Wolves' attack flow smoothly, and the football flew around the goal again and again. How can they not be nervous? !

It is difficult to conquer the world, and it is even more difficult to defend the world.

When the score was 2-0 in the first round, Lazio players must have been excited and happy, but in the second round, Wolves charged without pressure, and Lazio players were worried.

In this way, no matter what tactics and technical level are used, it is useless. If the players are thinking about the illusory question of whether they can advance, how can they have the mind to think about football?

How can the performance be good?

In the final analysis, it still has to beIt depends on what the players are thinking. Motta looked at the game screen and thought deeply. He suddenly felt the charm of football more, but this time, he was thinking about it as a head coach.

The players' psychology, technical and tactical restraint, all of this is wonderful!

Thiago Motta made up his mind that the first thing he would do after retiring was to fly to the UK!

Lazio players were nervous on the field, and Lazio fans were not much better off the field. Paul, an unemployed Italian sitting in a rental house, clenched his fists at this time. His clothes on his chest were wet because he was drinking beer a few minutes ago, and the Wolves' sudden shot made his beer spill on his clothes.

Sticky.

But Paul couldn't remember to take it off and change it. He stared at everything happening on the TV screen with wide eyes. Every shot of the Wolves almost made his heart stop. He was gritting his teeth now, but the game was only played for 20 minutes.

In this situation, even if Inzaghi wanted to attack, he couldn't, Wei Le had him completely under control!

When passing the ball, the ball couldn't pass through the midfield; when there was no ball, he couldn't grab the ball; when switching from defense to offense, he didn't have many ways to counter-grab the Wolves on the spot; when switching from offense to defense, he often made low-level mistakes and gave the Wolves players opportunities.

"This, this!" Inzaghi was speechless standing on the sidelines. Just now, Milinkovic held the ball near the baseline and passed it directly to Haaland! Inzaghi wanted to curse, but he couldn't. If he sent the wrong signal to the players, the players' mental state would probably get worse.

What Inzaghi didn't notice was that he himself had been surrounded by negative emotions and lost the ability to think calmly!

"Can this be a technical problem? This is panic!" Wei Le laughed, looking at the incompetent and furious Inzaghi, he whispered to Celars behind him.
