Chapter 34 Targeted Adjustment

"Mexico couldn't attack for a long time and had no choice but to retreat! Compared with the previous game, the Chinese team's defensive performance has become more comfortable!"

He Wei said; "The constant running of Ouyang Fei and Di Lei in the midfield has reduced the pressure on the defense a lot. Lucky can form a good restriction on Bella, who is the passing hub, every time. Between us Therefore, the Chinese team’s pre-match preparations are better, and this is the answer.”

"Compared to Mexico's understanding of us, we have studied their lineup more, know which link is the key, which aspect can be grasped, and which aspect can be relatively relaxed, and for this purpose Adjustment of position!”

"As an Italian coach, Lippi also has a very deep understanding of defense. His requirements for the Chinese team's defense are dynamic. We can see that the Chinese team is moving as a whole during defense, even in the frontcourt. Make corresponding retracement and pressing work!”

"Defense is not a job that only exists on the back line, but requires the cooperation of all members!"

"This is not like Italy's defensive system, and some are similar to the Dutch's total attack and defense formation, but the advancement of football tactics is also constantly promoting the integration of these different concepts of tactics. Lippi is a master tactician. Use your experience to create a defensive formation that best suits the Chinese team!”

As He Wei said, this defensive system was created by Lippi for the Chinese team.

Of course, the core key issue is also very simple, that is, you must have an absolutely capable midfielder.

Lucky is this type of player.

With Lucky's support, this strategy can be effective.

Once Lucky's restrictions on Bella don't work, everything will be in vain, and it will collapse faster.

Lippi's eyes were always on Lucai.

Whether it is offense or defense, Lucai is a core player.

He will make appropriate commands and orders for this purpose.

From the start of the game, Lippi was very satisfied with Lucky's performance.

Sometimes Lippi wonders how to give him players from several top European leagues and several secondary leagues. With the support of Lucky, he can dare to attack the World Cup championship.

Lucky is the most perfect midfielder Lippi has seen over the years.

Personal ability, mental will, game influence, key role, etc. are all integrated into one.

This is a core midfielder in an absolute sense.

Lippi looked down at the time.

The game has entered the 38th minute, and there are still 7 minutes left before the end of the first half.

At present, Mexico's offense is still difficult to sustain.

This requires a drastic overhaul, not just one or two players.

For this reason, Lippi believes that the Chinese team can spend the first half safely.

On the other side, Mexican coach Osorio was not overly anxious.

It was just a lost goal. Even though he was behind in the first half and in a relatively passive situation, he was confident that he would regain the situation in the second half.

And he also thought of how to impact the Chinese team's formation.

Therefore, he also returned to the coaching bench and sat down, without making any substitutions in a hurry.

If he concedes consecutive goals in the first half, Osorio may really be unable to sit still.

But after conceding only one goal, Osorio still has some confidence.

The Chinese fans at the scene also shouted wildly.

Compared with the Mexican fans who had tangled expressions, the Chinese fans were extremely happy.

Originally, a large number of Chinese fans entered Russia during this World Cup. Based on the excellent performance of the Chinese team, their enthusiasm was aroused.

Currently, there is a steady stream of fans entering Russia to cheer for the Chinese team.

And all this is based on the Chinese team's lead in two consecutive games.

The Chinese team's lead also made the commentators' tone lighter.

Seeing that there was not much time left in the first half, they were relieved.

"Mexico's current offensive can't go up, which requires them to make targeted changes in the second half. For the Chinese team, they also need to make some adjustments. Of course, we can't predict how Lippi will make adjustments, but at least from the current situation Judging from the situation, the Chinese team still has a greater chance of winning!”

He Wei said slowly.

With his words, the first half of the game also came to an end.

Soon, the referee blew the halftime whistle.

In the first half, the Chinese team took the lead 1:0 with Chen Man's goal.

Taking the lead also gave the Chinese players great confidence.

On the other hand, the Mexican players became serious one by one.

"We need more ball-holding ability in the frontcourt, especially in the central axis. Once Kai catches him, we lose the ability to transfer in the midfield!"

Hernandez said loudly.

Bella looked a little embarrassed about this.

After all, it was largely due to his inability to pose a one-sided threat to Lucky.

But no one blamed Bella for this. After all, if Bella could pose a threat to Lucky, this guy's worth would only be this.

"I'll adjust to that."

Mexico coach Osorio said to Lozano: "In the second half, you should not attack the wing, but move in as much as possible to help Vela with the ball, and at the same time we give up pressing in the frontcourt."

After saying that, Osorio turned around and said: "Santos, you go and warm up."

Santos, as Mexico's No. 10 player, has always been a technical player.

However, due to injuries, he has not been able to start.

In the current situation, even with a slight injury, Osorio has to use Santos.

In the first half, he used defender Layun to put it on the scene to increase the ability to press in the frontcourt, and it is best to form a counterattack directly in the frontcourt.

But the problem is that even if Mexico gets a steal, they can't find a suitable passing point in the compressed defense line of the Chinese team.

And at this time, Bella will always be watched dead.

In many cases, they can only passively transfer with a big foot, and during this transfer process, the Chinese team has already completed the deployment of defense.

The pull of one link affects the overall situation. For this reason, compared with high-position pressing, Osorio puts more opportunities into the ability to hold the ball in the frontcourt.

Relying on the ball holding and passing ability of Bella, Santos, and Lozano to form cooperation, slowly tear open the defense line of the Chinese team.

The main goal is to boil a frog in warm water.

When the Chinese team reacted, they directly covered the pot lid and suffocated the opponent.

Osorio's idea was good, but he didn't expect that Lippi had already made targeted deployments against the opponent.

"In the second half, we still have to play counterattacks! And the counterattack strength should be increased!"

Hearing this, Le Kai frowned slightly; "I can't be too forward, defense is still the most critical issue."

In response, Lippi nodded and said; "In the second half, you and Ouyang will switch positions and continue to defend, and the offensive task will be handed over to teammates."

Everyone was a little confused.

Let Ouyang Fei organize the attack, isn't this the same as when playing against Sweden?

Ouyang Fei didn't have much confidence in this either.

And at this moment, Lippi said; "Wang Yi, you go warm up!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Wang Yi on the court?

"Quinny, rest in the second half!"

Quinny and Wang Yi are replaced?

This

Everyone blinked and looked at Lippi.

Lippi said, "I have told Wang Yi that he will try to move inward in the second half to help Ouyang organize the attack. Although Wang Yi's shooting in front of the goal has deteriorated, his experience and organizational ability are still there, and he can share a lot of pressure for Ouyang."

"And you can also exchange positions through cross-running, just like in the warm-up match."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

This is a good way.

In the warm-up match, the frontcourt advancement lineup of Wang Yi and Ouyang Fei was still very good.

Although not as sharp as Lekai, it is still very threatening.

The most important thing is that Lekai focuses on defense in the backcourt.

The defense is stable, and with the support of Wang Yi and Ouyang Fei, counterattacks can also be played.

In this way, the overall lineup is stable.

There is defense and counterattack!

No matter how Mexico adjusts, the Chinese team is not afraid!

"Fuck! An old fox is an old fox."

Chen Man wanted to give Lippi a thumbs up.

He thought that after Lekai retreated, he would have to fight alone on the wing again.

Now with Wang Yi joining, the offensive organization in the frontcourt will be relatively smooth.

And even if it is not good, Chen Man can also organize the offense inward.

Anyway, this lineup has many changes and can play a good effect.
