The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 808 Want a face?

"Hey, slow down, what are you in a hurry for?"

"I'll go to ***, hold the ball steadily, pass it after seeing it clearly, are you blind?"

"Behind, behind, pay attention to behind, oops, everyone is near you, can't you see it?"

……

Diego Simeone was roaring and directing the game from the sidelines. His dancing and dancing revealed his anxiety at this moment, especially after the game entered the second half, the scene still did not change much. Tottenham Hotspur relied on In the first half, Lewandowski scored a goal and temporarily led 1:0.

After scoring the lead, Tottenham Hotspur played very wretchedly, even shrinking to play, which made Atletico Madrid feel very depressed, because what they are worst at is positional warfare, so when Tottenham Hotspur shrinks , Even if they just retreat to their own half and let Atletico Madrid press up, the Sheets are at a loss.

If the situation is reversed now, and Tottenham Hotspur presses into Atletico Madrid's half-court, then Atletico Madrid will probably play more easily, because they were originally good at stealing and defending. Now after pressing up, they are best at Instead, he exposed his worst part.

So in the last 10 minutes of the first half and the ten minutes of the second half, Atletico Madrid was helpless against Tottenham Hotspur, but Tottenham Hotspur played very patiently and did not rush at all. , Just waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, every counterattack made Atletico Madrid's back feel cold.

Simeone also has another worry, and that is physical fitness.

As the head coach of the team, he knows the situation of his team better than anyone else. Although Atletico Madrid can run and grab, he is not an iron man. The fierce fighting in the opening period exhausted the physical energy of Atletico Madrid players. Then Tottenham also used their passing and possession advantages to mobilize Atletico Madrid.

It can be said that in terms of physical fitness, the longer the time is delayed, the more unfavorable it will be for Atletico Madrid.

Now, the game has gone on for 10 minutes, neither side has made substitutions, and there are three substitutions in hand, but this is not of much use value for Atletico Madrid, because their bench thickness does not have many players who can replace the main lineup , but Tottenham Hotspur is different, Ye Qiu also sits on the bench, including Hazard and Didier Drogba.

"Raul Garcia is dead!" Assistant coach Boggs came over and reminded.

When Simeone heard it, he cursed a **** angrily, but he was prepared for this, and nodded at the assistant coach. The latter immediately went to the bench, called Sosa to warm up, and prepared to play to replace Raul ?Garcia.

The Atlético Madrid main midfielder sits on the right side of this game, facing Tottenham Hotspur's continuous back and forth impact on the left side. He not only has to press up to support Diego Costa's attack in the frontcourt, but He has to step back to help Juanfran behind him, and avoid the latter from falling into a one-on-one embarrassment, so his running range is very large.

Moreover, Tottenham Hotspur's ability to attack back and forth on the wing is very strong. Whenever they get a chance to counterattack, they will be assigned to the wing to attack on the wing. This makes Raul Garcia run back and forth non-stop. , Physical energy consumption is much faster than usual, and now, I can't keep up with the rhythm of the game.

"Damn it, the physical fitness of these bastards in Tottenham Hotspur is really abnormal!" Simeone cursed angrily.

Atlético Madrid's physical fitness is already quite good, but they are almost dying, just like Raul Garcia, but Tottenham Hotspur's physical fitness seems to have not bottomed out, Marcelo is still alive and well, even if It's Neymar, who still looks very excited, and the only one who looks a little tired is Ramsey.

But this Welshman is also a pervert. He ran nearly 60 kilometers in just over [-] minutes, making Ramsey almost everywhere in the previous hour. It is too perverted. person?

"I heard that in the past two years, Tottenham Hotspur have adopted a self-developed physical training program, so their players have excellent running ability, with an average running of more than [-] kilometers per game. "Another assistant, Oort, was near Simeone and said after hearing what he said.

Seeing Simeone staring at him, Oort smiled, "Tottenham Hotspur have invested a lot of money in research and development in this area. I heard that in their research and development team, in addition to their own team before , also absorbed the core talents of the Milan laboratory, and more importantly, there are scientific research teams from Oxford University and Cambridge University, so they have made great achievements in this area. I heard that there are even many people in track and field or other competitive industries All pray to them.”

After hearing this, Simeone was not without envy. If his team can have such physical fitness, why should he worry about not having enough physical fitness?If they can maintain high-intensity pressing and pressing for nine to 10 minutes, any team will have a headache seeing Atletico Madrid.

"I also heard that Tottenham Hotspur's physical training program is not purely physical training. Almost all training items are training with the ball, so this also makes their players skilled in passing and catching the ball. , and great touch on the ball."

After hearing this, Simeone shook his head and sighed.

At the European Elite Coaches Summit before, he heard many people mention what Ye Qiu did in Tottenham Hotspur. They thought it would set off a revolution. Now that I think about it carefully, perhaps it is true what they said, what Ye Qiu did in Tottenham Hotspur in the past few years will be quickly promoted to the whole world in the next few years.

Not much else to say, just point to the Tottenham Hotspur team running more than [-] kilometers per game, close to [-] kilometers, and it is said that their goal is to achieve the average running per game of each player within five years This is a huge revolution for a football game.

…………

…………

"Their physical fitness is dying!"

While Simeone was discussing Tottenham Hotspur with his assistant, Roland Schepas also walked up to Ye Qiu and Mauro Tassotti in front of the coaching bench of the visiting team, and said that he learned from the data The results of the analysis.

"It's going to be replaced, I don't know who it is!" Mauro Tassotti noticed Sosa's movement.

Soon, Sosa replaced Raul Garcia. The latter has already shown signs of stamina. Although he can still run, he can no longer keep up with Marcelo and Neymar. If he continues to use him on the field, It will inevitably become the target and focus of Tottenham Hotspur's key attack, so Simeone cautiously replaced Raul Garcia.

"Sousa for Raul Garcia?" Mauro Tassotti savored the substitution this time, "It's probably for defense!"

After a pause, the Italian shook his head and laughed, "Marcelo was too active in this game. Although he made a lot of mistakes, he was quite good, which made Neymar also perform well. Raul Garcia must have been tortured enough! "

Ye Qiu couldn't help but smile too, but turned his head away, "Let Pogba warm up!"

Turning his head and looking directly at the court, "Since Atletico Madrid's physical fitness is almost there, let's give them another ride!"

Two minutes later, Pogba came to Ye Qiu's side and listened to the head coach's arrangement.

"After playing, you run more, move more, you can move both horizontally and vertically, try to pull and mobilize the opponent's midfielder, and use up their last energy, do you understand what I mean?" Ye Qiu asked. .

Pogba leaned over to listen to Ye Qiu's words, grinned, a row of dazzling white teeth cracked on his dark face, "Understood!"

But soon, he smiled and said, "Boss, what they said is right, you... are a thief!"

"I..." Ye Qiu viciously slapped him on the back of the head. In fact, he didn't use any force at all, but the prick was exaggerated, as if he was going to cheat the red card.

Pogba quickly replaced Ramsey, who was in poor physical condition. The Welshman's performance in this game didn't seem to be much outstanding, but in fact he completed the task assigned to him by Ye Qiu very well. Especially after the first adjustment, he used his running without hesitation to consume Atletico Madrid's physical energy.

At this time when Pogba is on the field, Ye Qiu is going to use Pogba's ability to hold the ball and attack the opponent's defense to further exhaust Atletico Madrid's physical energy, so that they will consume faster, which will be more difficult for Tottenham Hotspur. favorable.

"Good job, Aaron, take a good rest and leave the game to us!" Ye Qiu encouraged Ramsey with a hug.

Ramsey didn't go back to the locker room, but put on his training clothes and sat directly on the bench. He wanted to watch the team play.

After Pogba came on the field, he had more chances to get the ball. Ye Qiu obviously subconsciously asked the players to increase Pogba's ball, and this French teenager did not disappoint Ye Qiu. Once he came on the field, he had the ball for the first time. A very impressive individual performance, that is, he turned with the ball after facing Cork in the middle of the midfield.

The whole process of pulling the ball and turning around was very elegant and calm, and after pulling the ball, Gabi rushed up to help defend immediately, but Pogba followed him with a smash, avoided Gabi's pressing, and faced directly Thiago, and then picked a pass to the penalty area with his right foot.

Lewandowski went straight behind, but the header was given to Messi who was inserted into the penalty area behind Miranda. The Argentine's kick was saved by the goalkeeper and won a corner kick.

Although he failed to score in the end, Pogba's performance surprised everyone.

"Paul Pogba is only 21 years old now, but he is already the most eye-catching star in the Tottenham Hotspur team. A direct descendant, he was favored by many teams last summer, but he chose to stay at Tottenham Hotspur because he firmly believes that he can succeed in Tottenham Hotspur!"

Compared to Ye Qiu's calmness and composure, Simeone seemed a little annoyed, because he realized that as soon as Pogba came up, his midfield defense was messed up. If he scored the goal just now, Atletico Madrid Not only is the first round over, but also the second round.

Tottenham Hotspur were very happy with Pogba's first touch. Messi even gave Pogba a thumbs up. Pogba gave this ball very well. Wandowski's ferry was also very good, but Messi himself failed to grasp the angle of the shot after receiving the ball, otherwise it would be an excellent goal.

But with the first cooperation, the next game will be much easier.

Messi and Pogba look like two No. [-] players on the court. Although one is at the front and the other is at the back, their positions are both in the embarrassing area of ​​the opponent's defense. For example, Messi, he always Playing on both sides of the deep midfielder Thiago, right behind Gabi and Cork and in front of the defence.

Pogba is always in front of Gabi and Cork, and because Diego Costa's position is relatively high, he is more harassing Tottenham's central defenders, so the entire midfield, Bogba Geba has absolute freedom and has more opportunities to get the ball because there is no one around to defend him.

From Ye Qiu's adjustments after the opening to the current substitutions, they are all in the same line and targeted.

When he fixed Raul Garcia and Sosa on the two wings, and Adrian on the other side on the wing, the center was defended by Gabi, Cork and Thiago, and Thiago If it is delayed, Gabi and Cork have to pay attention to Messi, so Pogba can get more room to play freely.

Ramsey was able to run such a long distance before because the space was large enough, but the Welshman is good at running and supporting, as well as the ball and organization after getting the ball. Pogba is best at dribbling the ball Attack the opponent's defense, so to a certain extent, it is important to go up to Ramsey first, consume the opponent's physical energy, and then go up to Pogba.

After Pogba played, Tottenham Hotspur almost began to attack around Atletico Madrid, but Atletico Madrid's defense is also quite tenacious. Simeone, a star from Serie A, is also very good at defense. The defense is very tight, and the two sides consume a lot of each other.

At No. 705 minutes, Ye Qiu made another substitution. Drogba replaced Lewandowski. Defender Felipe continued to strengthen the team's defense and vowed to keep the 0:1 score to the death.

Because from Atlético Madrid’s point of view, if they lose one goal, they still have hope in the away game, but if they lose two goals, then this hope is very slim. For Simeone, this game has been played to the current level. The possibility of reversing the situation is almost zero, at least he does not have any chips in hand to reverse the situation.

Therefore, he hopes to end the game at this point and have a showdown at Stratford Stadium in the second leg.

But when the game progressed to No. 801 minutes, an interception by Matic, after intercepting the ball from Cork to Diego Costa from halfway, he took the ball forward two steps and passed Pogba behind Cork, who dribbled the ball from the right to the right side of Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

"Pogba dribbles to Ribery, Ribery wants to break through, but Alderweireld defends well, no chance, knocks back to Pogba, Thiago comes to defend, Kyle Walker also comes up , Pogba split to the right, to Kyle Walker!"

"Facing Adrian who was back on defense, Kyle Walker made a 45-degree cross with his right foot!"

"Drogba stood still, overwhelmed Godin, headed back to Messi in front of the penalty area!"

When Messi stopped Drogba's back ball in the front arc area of ​​the penalty area, Neymar happened to quickly slant into the penalty area from the left rib. At this time, Juanfran was already thrown away, so Miranda I have to pay attention to Neymar. After Messi stopped the ball, he pulled it to the left, avoiding Gabi who was close to him, and directly hit an instep curve ball with his left foot.

I saw the ball cross a curved curve, almost rubbed against the left post, and got into Atletico Madrid's goal.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Messi, Messi scored a goal!!!"

"2:0, Tottenham Hotspur made another victory, Messi scored the second goal of the game for Tottenham Hotspur!"

"A very, very crucial goal. Tottenham scored two away goals. This is equivalent to forcing Atletico Madrid to take a more proactive away game after a week. For Simeone, it is absolutely important. Not a very good result!"

The live broadcast camera was sent to the sidelines, and Simeone was almost going crazy.

"Atletico Madrid's players are exhausted physically, but more importantly, Ye Qiu's two substitutions are very crucial!"

"After replacing Pogba, the French teenager's support for the offensive end is different from that of Ramsey. Ramsey is passing and supporting, while Pogba is directly dribbling the ball. Moreover, his body is quite good and his speed is also fast. The impact is strong, which is simply a nightmare for Atletico Madrid, whose physical fitness is no longer enough."

"For the second substitution, Drogba was used to replace Lewandowski. This was an active substitution with obvious intentions. After Drogba was added, Kyle Walker was very active. He was on the right. Lu's cross created Drogba's header ferry, allowing Messi to get the ball at the front of the penalty area, throw away Gabi and hit the goal directly."

"We can see that the two substitutions and adjustments are very ingenious and very targeted. Relatively speaking, Simeone's substitutions are a bit passive, but this can only be said that Atletico Madrid, no matter in the team In terms of lineup and strength, or the thickness of the bench, they are not as good as Tottenham Hotspur."

After scoring the second goal, Tottenham Hotspur and the fans who followed the team to the away game were extremely excited. This is not only an away game against Atletico Madrid, but also two An away goal is a nightmare for a team like Atletico Madrid.

"In the second round, shall we play a defensive counterattack at the Stratford Stadium?" Ye Qiu asked with a smile after seeing Messi's goal. He was also in a good mood.

When Mauro Tassotti and Roland Shepas heard this, they all burst into laughter. Is this shameful?

Imposing Tottenham Hotspur, playing anti-reverse at Stratford Stadium?
"Okay, let that obscene guy Simeone taste the taste of being disgusted!" Mauro Tassotti is rarely interested in pranks, so he is actually not a very dull person.
