Chapter 32 Naples Attacks Serie A match day is coming. At the Olympic Stadium, fans are eagerly waiting. A giant Tifo with the portrait of the No. 10 jersey slowly rose up in the south stand. The song "Rome, Rome!" resounded over the Eternal City. The five-game winning streak is exciting. Fans believe that the winning streak will continue tonight, even though the opponent is the fierce Napoli. "Zhuangdianertai! Zhuangdianertai! Good evening, audience friends!" "Now we are broadcasting live the 2011th round of the 12/29 Serie A season!" "Roma at home against Napoli." "Red Wolf meets Little Donkey!"
"Napoli fans don't need to be angry. The nickname 'Little Donkey' has now lost its mocking meaning and has become a kind name for the club by local fans." "You can also call it the Lightning Army." "Juventus fans call Naples: flood; I heard that there was a match between the two teams in history that encountered a flood alert and had to be postponed." Pre-match press conference. Enrique and Mazzarri shook hands. The two head coaches stood together, with the spotlights flashing wildly. The media couldn't help but sigh inwardly: If they changed their heads, they would get a perfect 007 image. Enrique is in great shape. Mazzari is handsome. "Enrique, can you defend the dignity of your home court today?" "Dear Mr. Mazzari, are you ready to capture the Olympic Stadium?" Reporters asked questions enthusiastically. The press officer rushed to maintain the situation. The Napoli coach wore gold-rimmed glasses today and spoke calmly: "Enrique is a very talented coach. He turned decay into magic. In the past five games, he used five different tactical layouts. The tactical adjustments were very frequent and unpredictable. I am not surprised at all by Roma's recent victory." "The outside world doesn't understand him, so they criticize him." Mazzarri has a strange personality and was almost beaten by his own players a while ago, but he believes in the old doctrine that "tactics determine everything". His remarks tonight were the answer he got after repeatedly studying the Roma game videos. Player tunnel. The Argentine players greeted each other warmly. Both teams have a lot of South Americans.
Gao Qi stood in line, recalling Napoli's defensive structure carefully in his mind. "I guess Mazzarri will play with three central defenders again." Bojan whispered. In the last round, he performed very well and scored two goals in a row. My confidence has grown tonight, and I feel that I am getting closer and closer to returning home. Kjaer nodded: "You have to actively return to defense, our backcourt will be very hard, and the Napoli central defender will also participate in the advancement." Since Mazzarri took over as coach of Napoli, he has been using three central defenders with almost no changes. One of the central defenders was also given crazy offensive attributes. The referee team led the players from both teams out of the tunnel. The Olympic Stadium began to boil. Various sounds mixed together and turned into a buzzing sound through the sound recording and broadcasting equipment. "The following introduces you to the starting lineups of both sides." "Roma's formation is 3-4-3!" "Goalkeeper: Stekelenburg." "Defenders: Heinze, Kjaer, Aleandro." "Midfield: Pjanic, De Rossi, Totti, Taddei." "Forwards: Bojan, Gao Qi, Lamela." Studio. - 【Enrique finally got back to normal, diamond 3-4-3. 】 - 【Cruyff likes to use this formation. 】 - 【Van Gaal also played well with this formation. 】 - [I suspect that Enrique had too many famous coaches when he was young, which led to confusion in his tactical thinking.] - [Just attack and you're done. There will be no shortage of goals tonight. 】 "Napoli's formation is 3-5-2!" "Goalkeeper: De Sanctis." "Defenders: Campagnaro, Paolo, Aronica." "Midfield: Zuniga, Gargano, Hamsik, Inler, Maggio." "Forwards: Cavani, Lavezzi." Studio. - [Is De Sanctis still playing? I remember one year he beat Buffon and became the best goalkeeper in Serie A. ] - [Cavani is likely to win the Serie A Golden Boot this season, having scored 19 goals so far. ] - [Uruguay has produced many great strikers in recent years, such as Diego Forlan, Suarez, and Cavani. ] Accompanied by the referee's whistle. The game officially begins. Roma possession. Gao Qi kicked the ball back to the backcourt. Napoli's attackers rushed through the center circle frantically and began to press.
“Both teams are very motivated.” "We are all working hard to qualify for the Champions League as the third place in Serie A." "It's hard to say. If AC Milan fails, the teams behind them still have a chance to rank second in Serie A." "Napoli's pressing net is very targeted and doesn't allow Roma's backcourt to pass the ball out to the wing." Cavani stuck close to Kjaer. Kjaer had no choice but to adjust his butt and pass the ball back to the goalkeeper. Goalkeeper Stekelenburg did not drag his feet. The three central defenders didn't have time to create distance. Just kick your feet. The football took off from the ground and flew towards the center circle. "Yes, it's that simple." "Looking for Gao Qi." "It would be better if the high kick was shorter and the upper body was longer, then it would become an ideal forward." The camera moves along the trajectory of the football. Gao Qi ran to the landing point. Unload the ball with your back to the basket. The foot hasn't touched the ball yet. Two figures bumped into each other. The sound of intense fighting was heard from the close-up sound equipment. The man fell on his back and his horse fell over. Gao Qi and two Napoli midfielders fell to the ground together, and then got up at the same time. The football bounced between three feet and lost control. Fortunately, De Rossi came forward in time. "Pass the ball to Bojan." “It’s a fast pace.” "It's hard to breathe. There are only a few teams in Serie A that play at such a fast pace." "It's because of Napoli. Napoli will let their opponents follow their pace." Bojan dribbled the ball forward along the wing.
The few seconds he starts are fast, but he is not fast over long distances. It's not that the speed is slow, but the accuracy of touching the ball at high speed is not good enough. Gao Qi ran while observing the positions of his teammates. The attacking points are not enough. Run the arc! Increase the distance between the opponent's central defenders and create space for teammates behind them to advance. "Hey?" "Bojan goes inside!" "I can't get through." "Totti finally came up." Bojan quickly passed the ball to Totti. Totti had already seen Lamela. One touch of the ball. The football moves at high speed along the grass. Penetrated the gap in Gao Qi’s defense! In the away stands, the Napoli fans who had traveled with the team seemed to be strangled by the throat. "Pretty!" "Surgical-like pass!" "Gao Qi has opened up the gap between the opposing center backs!" “The two of them work so well together!” "Enrique seems to have solved some of the problems of Gao Qi and Totti coexisting." "Single sword!" Lamela waited for a long time and accelerated again in the penalty area. catch the ball. Get up! Hit the door! Bah! DeSanctis blocked the ball out of bounds! (End of this chapter)
