Chapter 9: A rehearsal of Juventus' classic tactics

When I was in the orphanage, this guy was the most mischievous and troublesome.In the past, Li Ma would "wipe his ass" when he was young, but now that he has grown up and is thousands of miles away, Li Ma is worried that something big will happen to him.

"Well, I know."

"That's how it is. Your international long-distance calls must be very expensive. You didn't tell me about it earlier, so I wasted so much phone bills for so long."

"It's all right, Mama Li, the phone bills here are quite reasonable (cheap)."

"That's it. Take good care of your health over there. If you don't have enough money, tell Mama Li. Don't be embarrassed. I watched you grow up."

Before Li Zihan could reply, he hung up on the other end.

Hearing the busy tone from the phone, Li Zihan shook his head helplessly, and then something called warmth came to his heart.

...................................................

On the second day, Li Zihan came to the training ground early after having breakfast at the training base. He had a deep memory of the "special care" given to him by assistant coach Massimo yesterday.

"Today we practice the proudest tactics in Juventus history, the 3-5-2 formation." Conte and the coaching staff announced today's training in front of the 25 first-team players on the field at the Vinovo training base content.

"This formation will be our main formation this season. 352 seems to be a main offensive formation emphasizing continuous pressing attacks. In fact, it is an all-round formation that can retreat and defend, advance and attack, and has a strong midfielder."

The staff at the training base brought out a large mobile tactical blackboard, on which was a thumbnail of a football field, and 22 numbered chess pieces of two colors were arranged on it, and the numbers on both sides were 1 to 11. There are a total of 22 players on both sides.

The red pieces are placed in a 352 formation, and the yellow pieces are placed in a traditional 442 formation with a balanced offense and defense.

"Let me talk about offense first." Conte explained while fiddling with the chess pieces on the tactical board: "When attacking from the backcourt, the two marking central defenders should pull away to both sides in time. Cooperate and attack from the side. The central defender can participate in the midfield attack according to the situation of the game at that time, but these actions must be based on the safety of the backcourt.”

Speaking of which, Conte moved the two central defenders in the backcourt of the red chess pieces to the side, and at the same time pulled the entire formation apart.

Conte speaks Italian, and Juventus, as one of the giants in world football, is committed to developing local Italian players, so most of them are Italians.

However, there are also professional translators in the club, a total of five people.Four of them use English, French, German, and Spanish to provide real-time tactical translation for other players in the team. Of course, some of these foreign players have played in Italy for a long time, so they basically know Italian.For example, Vidal, the Juventus midfielder from Chile, is proficient in Spanish and Italian.

The last interpreter is the most eye-catching among the five, no, it should be said that she is the most eye-catching among the thirty or so people on the court.

She, yes, it was her, not him.

The girl's height is close to 1.7 meters five, and her figure is very good, which is completely in the golden ratio.He was wearing a black professional suit with a white shirt collar turned out inside.

His black hair was tied back, giving him a sophisticated look.She has a melon-seeded face, a pair of bright eyes with black-rimmed glasses on her clothes, a pretty face without heavy makeup, and a slender willow waist under her tall breasts.The wheat-colored skin under the sun gives people a healthy feeling, and the slender legs are exposed in the air.

This is the face of an angel and the figure of a devil in the legend...
That's right, this is the staff responsible for translating Chinese for Li Zihan Children's Shoes.Those who didn't know thought it was the temptation of Miss Yu's uniform.

Among the more than [-] old men, this female translator is undoubtedly the delicate red in the green bushes.Uh... the "burly" Aunt Sophia in the medical team was directly filtered out by Li Zihan.

Finding that the team members were peeking at the female translator frequently, the old Conte now began to regret hiring this beautiful girl in his heart.

Conte coughed loudly, reminding these guys that it's time for training. Hearing Conte's deliberate cough, the team members all came back to their senses and focused on Conte's tactical analysis.

After all, these professional football players have all seen big storms. What kind of beauties have they not seen in their nearly ten years of stardom?Even many players have affairs with some small stars, especially players from Spain.

Of course, Li Zihan, a sullen little virgin who had never seen the world, was still peeping secretly.

Seeing that the players are concentrating on the old Conte, he continued to analyze: "When the midfielder attacks, the two full-backs focus on participating in their respective side attacks, either breaking through and crossing individually, or cooperating with other avant-garde teammates and forward teammates to form a side attack. The remaining three central midfielders should carry out organization, insertion, long-range shooting or transfer cooperation according to the division of labor before the game, and launch a bold attack on the opponent, which must be quickly decided according to the situation on the spot. "

"When attacking in the frontcourt, the two wing forwards should actively run and cooperate with each other, or cooperate with the avant-garde teammates who plug in, create and use gaps, and look for shooting opportunities; in the entire offensive system, the three midfielders are The offensive hub connects the three lines organically so as to firmly control the initiative of the overall offensive. We must be careful not to have the three parts fight independently and disconnect the connection."

"When defending in the frontcourt, because there are more midfielders in this formation, two full-backs and a central midfielder must often cooperate with two forwards to carry out active and active grabs, steals and joint efforts to encircle the opponent in the frontcourt. If the ball is successfully intercepted, a continuous attack will be launched immediately."

"It's the same when defending in the midfield. The midfielders launch a coordinated defense in the middle or on the side to prevent the opponent from advancing through the midfield and keep the enemy out of the backcourt. It makes it difficult for the opponent to take a step forward to increase the backcourt security and increase the oppression of the opponent."

"When defending in the backcourt, once the opponent attacks the backcourt, the two full-backs are responsible for defending the sideways, the two central defenders are responsible for marking the opponent's forwards, and the other deep-back central defender is responsible for guarding the important area in front of the goal and making up defenses at any time Two sideways. The three central midfielders should define their individual responsibilities according to the pre-match division of labor, such as man-marking, defense against penetration and defense from long-range shots."

"When defending as a whole, it is forbidden for the three courts to fight independently. In the 352 formation, the front and back courts are generally connected in series by the avant-garde players to form a large encirclement net, and the opponent's gloves will be trapped in it, making the opponent helpless."

After talking about the offensive and defensive system of the entire formation, Conte didn't say much, he basically said almost everything that should be said, and the rest needs to be understood and digested by the players.

After looking at their watches, everyone pondered in silence for about 5 minutes. Conte clapped his hands to attract the attention of the players: "Now we will practice in groups. The red team will use the 352 formation first, and the yellow team will use the traditional 442 formation first. 45 minutes Then rest for 10 minutes and then the red team and the yellow team continue to fight in reverse."

Li Zihan was assigned to the yellow team. He looked at the players wearing yellow training vests with him and found that the entire yellow team was basically a substitute rotation player. The main players were Quagliarella, Vucinic, and Vidal. Everyone is on the red team.

However, he is not dissatisfied with this. Most of the players are still waiting for opportunities in the youth training camp or the reserve team, and he has already trained and played with these main players of the first team, although he is a substitute.

But in the last game, he was selected for the 23-man roster. You must know that the Serie A team has no registration quota limit. The entire first team has more than 30 players, and only 23 players can participate in each game. , while others will stay at the base to continue training.

Whenever he thinks of this, he is very grateful to Conte, he gave himself a chance.Although there is a cheating device, there are prerequisites for activating the cheating device.

That is to join a club and play a game. If there is no old Conte, he might be sleeping on the street at a loss right now.

You must know that in Italy, one of the top European football countries, not all head coaches have the courage and courage to give an Easterner a chance to play in an important game.

But Qi was still at a time when he didn't know if this young man was capable.

If he has a vault covered in gold, then Conte is the one who gave him the key to the vault.

"Hey, Vidal, what are you doing? Sleepwalking? You are the midfielder commander, what are you doing in the back, hurry up and organize an attack!"

"Damn it, Bonucci guarded Giovinco. At this time, you should step forward decisively. Are you letting him enter the penalty area just because he is your fellow Italian? I said that you have to hire Giovinco for this after training. Thank him with a spaghetti meal."

"Damn it, Iaquinta, what are you playing? Accelerate and pass the ball to Matri after pulling out the gap. Are you already running at the age of 33?"

"Good work, Fabio (Quagliarella), just play like this."

…………

Seeing the poor performance of the players, the old Conte is not merciful at all. He is not soft-spoken when he should be scolded, but he is not stingy when he should be praised. It seems that this is a typical head coach who pays attention to rewards and punishments .

"Hey, Lee, what about you, yes it's you, don't get hit easily like a bitch, this is football, the greatest gift God has given to a man, get up and fight like a warrior .Damn it, Lee is too skinny to add physical training to Lee's training list."

Seeing that Li Zihan was easily knocked to the ground by Barzagli on the field, the old Conte on the sidelines immediately spit.

The last sentence he said to the assistant coach Massimo beside him.

After hearing Conte's order, Massimo showed a rare smile on his serious and dead face, but the originally friendly expression on his face was a bit ferocious.

On the football field, Li Zihan, who just got up from the grass, couldn't help shivering. He had an ominous premonition.
