Chapter 42 Smart Center (Two in One) "Incredible!" “An incredible arc.” "Like a shining gem." "Rainbow, a real Turin rainbow." "Elegant escape." “A classy goal.” "Gao Qi destroyed the iron defense of the Serie A overlord in the most elegant way!" "The dark cloud of Alp could not cover up his talent." "He equalised for Roma."
"Great assist from De Rossi!" The commentator was so excited that he was incoherent, and coach Zhang couldn't help pounding the table: A Chinese player shone throughout the peak showdown in the Apennines, and the emotional value he brought was too precious and too overwhelming. In the slow-motion replay, that elegant and calm figure seemed like a beam of light, piercing through the darkness. The heroism of the weak defeating the strong, which makes people feel excited! Studio. - 【Handsome, handsome! 】 - 【husband! 】 - 【Apennines elegant style of play. 】 - [Nine and a half, ignore defense, true damage. ] - [The nightmare difficulty Novice Village Big Boss has his armor broken. ] - [That's great. In the past, Gao Qi established the offensive chain for his Roma teammates, but now all of Roma is creating space for him alone.] - [Juventus will not suffer a second loss, and will definitely restrict Gao Qi from getting the ball in the left half. ] - [Hey, hey, hey, Totti, don’t look like an old father who has accomplished his mission. ] - [If this game is a draw, qualification for the Champions League next season will be basically secured. Alas, if he transfers to other clubs in the summer window, he may not be able to play the role of the offensive core so comfortably. ] Juventus was a little stunned. Conte scratched his hair with both hands. He seemed to have seen the figures of two generations of Juventus No. 9 and a half: Baggio's empty step + Piero's arc "Nine and a half" "Controlling the game, finishing, and constantly rotating between the two lines. A number nine and a half." Pirlo put his hands on his hips, his thoughts drifting away. The 37-year-old Piero stood there, looking at Gao Qi on the green field from afar, his eyes full of Buffon picked up the ball from the net and threw it over: "Don't look at it, it doesn't look like you at all. You weren't that tall when you were 18." the other side. The Roma fans who followed the army into the battle were shouting the hero's name crazily. I was originally overwhelmed by the opponent, but when the score was tied, the gloom in my heart was immediately swept away. Gao Qi and his teammates gathered at the corner flag area, high-fiving and hugging to celebrate. In addition to excitement. Keyar asked with concern: "Gao, does it hurt here?" It’s okay not to say it. As soon as he said that, Gao Qi felt a little pain on the inside of his right leg. The action of stepping in the air to get rid of the powerful arc shot was too powerful.
The 80 points of foot strength brings a small qualitative change to the shooting intensity and also increases the load on the body. A few months ago, in December 2011, Premier League star Scott Dann ripped his balls apart with a powerful long-range shot. "No time to worry about the balls." Gao Qi has been learning the Roman dialect with the help of his assistant for several months and has gradually become able to communicate tactics fluently: "We will have many opportunities. In this game, Juventus's frontcourt was too aggressive in strangling our short pass receiving points, which easily led to loss of position. Chiellini will frequently appear at the side defensive midfielder position. If Marchisio fails to fill in the back line in time, then Bonucci and Barzagli will shorten the distance to restrict me. I will try to rush to the outside line to help you create one side of the space." touch! Find out! Pre-match research is useful, but on-the-spot dialectics is more critical. Not loud. The Romans had not yet finished celebrating and were gathered in a circle, and could clearly hear Gao Qi's arrangements. Those who understood nodded. Those who didn't understand also nodded. Don't worry so much. Gao Qi has already figured out Conte's targeted layout. He will establish an advantage in the frontcourt, and other offensive points will continue to attack the Zebras through the empty spaces! Totti's eyes were full of admiration. On the way back to the center circle, he approached Gao Qi and said with his hand covering his mouth: "Marchisio is the key. I will take him away." Everybody knows. Deployment is deployment. It's impossible to type it in one smooth motion like in the cartoon. It takes time to lay the groundwork. Trash talking is needed to conduct the 'position game'. But Gao Qi proposed a solution to the problem, which made the oppressive feeling brought by the Serie A overlord in front of them no longer so terrifying. Command area. Enrique and Ivan did not indulge in joy. "What's the next fight?" "If we can't keep the high pressure going, our passing stability and physical fitness will not be able to sustain it." "Then let's collect it first." "We can't hold back. We have to charge while Conte is slow to change his formation." in unison. The old men on the coaching staff said this in a decisive tone, and did not forget to make gestures to the players on the field. "Yeah, yeah, yeah" Enrique nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
He doesn't believe that things like "Beckenbauer sidelining the coach", "Cruyff coaching while playing football" and "Guardiola coaching on the field" will happen in the 21st century. Physical energy distribution is also a key part of tactical adjustment. Different coaching teams, through physical indicators and training reports, will have a rough "physical strength bar" in their minds when looking at their players on the field. This "physical strength bar" is related to the head coach's original idea of building the team. This is where Enrique is inferior to Conte. Conte continued the "power-based" team-building ideas accumulated by his predecessor, resulting in the Zebras' "physical strength bar" being far higher than other Apennines teams. This is also one of the characteristics of the Serie A overlord. Of course, there are exceptions among players. Some people have abnormal physical fitness no matter what team structure or training environment they are in. Roma's sporting director's office. Sabatini slammed the table excitedly, and the white ash on the edge of the ashtray looked like an avalanche. The assistant said excitedly: "Boss, if Gao ends his opponent's undefeated streak, the name of the Roman hero will become even more famous!" Sabatini nodded. His eyes were fixed on the screen while his hands reached for his lighter and cigarette box. The game resumes. Juventus has the ball. Matri passed the ball back to Pirlo. "Rome has gone mad!" “Wow, so many players rushing across half court!” “Actively pressurize!” “This is the right way to play.” Pirlo was very calm. He easily resolved Bojan's pressing with a few pulls and pushes. Even if space is created, there is no direct long pass. Instead, he passed the ball to his teammates, observed the flaws in Roma's high defense, and then launched an attack! Bah! The deadly arc connected the two halves like an arch bridge. Piero's timing was still perfect. But this time Kjaer was not slow to react. The two of them sprinted towards where the football landed at the same time. The middle-aged man couldn't outrun the young man. "Not bad!"
"Kjaer fights for the drop point and passes back to the goalkeeper." Conte made exaggerated gestures on the sidelines: Gao Qi can't get the ball so easily in the left half of the field in his own backcourt. Time passed by minute by minute. Roma didn't have many offensive attacks, as Juventus' defense was very strong. It's like a turn-based game. Constantly switching offense. Consumption duel. Both sides are patiently looking for opportunities. However, Juventus' overall advantage seemed to be hindered by Gao Qi's arc. At the Alpi Stadium, the voices grow louder as time goes by. The 42th minute of the game. Roma's backcourt once again resolved Juventus' attack. Restart the advancement. "The goalkeeper gave the ball to De Rossi." "It was Juventus' turn to press." "Enrique's team-building ideas have many flaws, but his ability to pass the ball out from the back is still good." "Roma's backcourt pass is not just about the goalkeeper and defenders opening up a gap in the central pressure net through their positioning. Pay attention to Totti's position!" Totti was just talking trash to Marchisio. At this moment, he has turned back and ran in an arc. Allowing De Rossi to see a safe passing lane in the dense pressing net. Link between the Vice Captain and the Captain. Snapped! Totti was in the center circle and touched the ball. The ball flew to the right. At the same time, Chiellini appeared in the defensive midfielder position. There was a burst of boos from the away stands: Marchisio pinned the old wolf king down. The referee indicated that there was no foul and continued the attack. Roma's attack chain harvested information: 'Chiellini did not withdraw to the back line', 'Marchisio was taken away by Totti'. The flaw has emerged. After a long period of intense attrition and positional games, Rome finally achieved the situation deployed by Gao Qi.
Right. Lamela stopped and dribbled the ball forward along the sideline. Dare not stop. If he stops, Chiellini will catch up with him. He tried hard to observe Gao Qi's position. really. At the moment when the two conditions of "Chiellini can't come back" and "Marchisio was taken away by Totti" were met, Bonucci and Barzagli really "shortened the distance" to block Gao Qi who was "off the ball". The time to solve the problem is very short. very short. The Roman attack chain is an idea. Juventus's defense is another idea. Bonucci and Barzagli had the same idea: 'We can't let Gao Qi get a chance on the left rib. It would be terrible if he could kick out that powerful arc every minute.' Vidal thought so too. The pace of the three people changed closely following Gao Qi's pace. From a bird's-eye view. Rome's big stick seemed to have magnetic force, attracting the three zebra warriors. "Roma didn't have enough width in attack." "Bojan and Pjanic on the left." "Gao Qi is in the middle? Why did he run to the left half of the field?" "This will cause congestion in the offensive space." "Pretty!" Juventus half-time. Gao Qi suddenly rushed to the left rib. Create a crowd! The crowded environment is like a meat grinder. The Roma teammates on this side had no space to advance, and the Juventus players had no time to fill the empty spaces on the other side! A big stick violently stirs the black and white steel defense line! Conte was a little confused. Just a moment. The right flank of their own defense line was empty.
empty! Go make up for it quickly! The camera is focused on Lamela on the right. The Argentine genius did not struggle with Chiellini. Although he also wanted to occupy the gap on the right rib with a burst of gunfire, he wanted to win more. Snapped! Send out the oblique plug! Following the trajectory of the football, the audience saw the figure of a veteran Roma player. Tadei! "Wow!" "This is the perfect time to make the run forward. The right flank is empty!" "Lead it forward!" “You can knock on the door now!” Barzagli has a very clever mind. Good at reading the opponent's attack direction. At the critical moment, he saw through Gao Qi's intention. He looks like a slow-moving tortoise-shell man, but actually his straight-line speed is explosive! The pink sneakers kicked hard. Start sprinting! one meter. Two meters. His responsibility is to block Gao Qi from going inside, so he is closer to the middle and has a chance to adjust and fill in the position. Bah! Snapped! Taddei's shot was blocked by Barzagli's smooth thigh! The football was like a kite with a broken string, flying out of bounds. "The referee blew the whistle." "Did Barzagli commit a defensive foul?" "Roma won a free kick in the frontcourt." "Their attack this time was very threatening. Gao Qi is very good at helping the team establish offensive advantages in the frontcourt." "Conte must be vigilant." "Hey, Juventus has always been slow in changing its formation on the spot." "It doesn't matter, they defended the set pieces very well." On the green field.
Roma teammates all gave Gao Qi a thumbs up in their hearts. As long as we follow his deployment, the offensive chain can be easily launched. Taddei held out his hand guiltily. Snapped! Gao Qi high-fived him along the way. It’s okay, there’s still a chance. Studio. - [Gao Qi is awesome. He seized this opportunity to beat Juventus.] - 【I want Gao Qi's running hotspot map. 】 - [Strange, why was Juventus' defense so messy just now? 】 - [They wanted to limit Gao Qi's possession of the ball in the left half, but were disrupted.] - [The right ribs were torn open a little bit. Unfortunately, Juventus' defense was too abnormal. ] Set piece? Enrique in the command area was suddenly shocked. On set pieces. No famous coach can beat me! He gestured excitedly toward his disciples. It was not an on-the-spot change, but something that had already been arranged during training. "I have studied Juventus' set-piece defence and Chiellini does not have a man-marking role but plays a free role as a sweeper in the small penalty area." "Let's not look for open space in the penalty area and make him invisible." The other side. Conte looked gloomy. Juventus’ unbeaten streak must not be destroyed! At the Alpi Stadium, the Zebra fans in the south stand tried hard to boo and disturb Roma's penalty taker. Totti remained unmoved. He stood in front of the ball, looking at the crowded Juventus penalty area. Gao Qi was near the far post, surrounded by big men. Beep! The referee blows the whistle. Totti runs up and kicks the ball. The football was not shot directly at the goal, nor was it aimed at the highest point. Instead, he stuck to the grass and flew towards Pjanic on the right diagonal of the penalty area. Snapped! Pjanic took one touch. The football flew towards the top of the penalty area! Bojan, who had withdrawn from the crowd in advance, kicked the ball fiercely! The football stuck to the grass, passed through the dense crowd, and was finally caught by Buffon! There was an uproar. Tens of thousands of Zebra fans at the scene breathed a sigh of relief. "It's so dangerous!"
"During this period, Rome's attacks have become more and more fierce!" "Take the initiative!" Bojan rubbed his face in frustration, feeling that his journey back home from Barcelona had been lengthened again. Enrique spread his hands helplessly. The plan was successful, but unfortunately the goalkeeper was Buffon. There is another set-piece opportunity. Juventus is not stupid and Roma's trick will not work again. Courtside. Conte went into a frenzy. He kept roaring at his disciples. His team-building ideas and pre-match layout are very strong, but his ability to "counterattack" is unstable. Just don't break it. Use the overall advantage to defeat Rome! Beep! Beep beep~ The first half is over. Gao Qi bent down and adjusted the shin guard on his left leg. Looking towards Juventus' right half.
