my football i call the shots

Because of their high energy, the boys from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School warmed up very quickly today.

After warming up, none of them felt tired yet, with their heads held high and their chests held high, ready to go.

Maybe... In their eyes, the second-round opponent Xinghu Middle School is a soft persimmon, right?
Seeing the good spirits of the boys one by one, Cao Chen couldn't expose the score of the match between Xinghu Middle School and Beiyang Middle School.

"Well...we're going to play the third round on Wednesday, you all know that?"

"Know!!!"

The responses below were full of vigor, and it could be seen that everyone was fighting like hell, and they were completely unafraid of the hardships of the second round.

"Well, today is the last training session before we prepare for the second round, so let's extend the training time? Everyone should go back later tonight."

"Row!!!"

"Well, let's talk about tactics first."

Cao Chen took the upside-down small foam blackboard on the track and pointed it at the team members, which almost frightened the team members.

"Evolution?"

"5-4-1? Isn't it? So conservative?"

"Coach Cao, did you take the wrong blackboard?"

……

All kinds of turmoil down there made it difficult for Cao Chen to intervene. Fortunately, at this time, Zhang Ziyang, the most prestigious member of the team, stepped forward.

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing and let Coach Cao arrange it. I believe that Coach Cao has a certain reason for doing so."

After all, Zhang Ziyang secretly pushed Gao Yi.

Gao Yi understood immediately, and echoed Zhang Ziyang's words just now: "That's right, Coach Cao's tactics are quite good. He plays steadily and steadily. I think the next counterattack will win more smoothly."

When Zhang Ziyang and Gao Yi said that, the others immediately lowered their voices a few points.

On the contrary, Bai Xiaolei, who usually seldom raises opinions in training sessions, frowned and put forward his own point of view.

"Coach Cao, the opponent Xinghu Middle School in the next round is very strong?"

"good."

Cao Chen's answer was rather perfunctory, after all, it was Bai Xiaolei who spoke, so what Cao Chen said, he still had to treat the main force in his hands a little less.

"Then why play this formation? If I read correctly, this is 4 midfielders! Not 4 midfielders! 4 defensive midfielders, how strong is the opponent that needs such extreme defense?"

"Wow wow wow..."

After Bai Xiaolei revealed Cao Chen's tactical intentions on the tactical board, it also caused an uproar among the boys below. Obviously, they did not expect that Cao Chen's seemingly 4 midfielders on the tactical board turned out to be 4 midfielders.

4 defensive midfielder formation, this is basically a strange formation that will not be seen in the professional arena.

The main activity area of ​​​​the midfielder is relatively concentrated in the middle. At this time, there are only two possibilities for arranging 4 midfielders to squeeze in the narrow middle.

The first is: the head coach took the wrong medicine and went crazy! ?
The other is: the opponent's strength is too terrifying to match, and they can only defend with crowd tactics!
The first possibility can naturally be ruled out without even thinking about it.

Then the answer comes out, only when the opponent's strength is too terrifying to be able to match, it is necessary to arrange such an extreme defensive formation!

Zhang Ziyang, who was standing behind Bai Xiaolei, was anxious. Bai Xiaolei seldom talked in training sessions, but today he talked so much... and he still talked when he shouldn't.

Now, we can only see how Cao Chen responds to the boys off the court.

Cao Chen first gave Bai Xiaolei a strange look, and then continued to say slowly: "I said, will this formation be used in the second round? Xiaolei, why are you so nervous? Besides, The head coach's tactical arrangements are authority, and the players should obey them unconditionally! Do you understand!"

At the end, Cao Chen's voice had already raised several tones, which also frightened the boys below into silence.

"I'm sorry, Coach Cao, I just want to know why it is necessary to train this formation!"

Bai Xiaolei stood very straight, but the expression on his face was unruly.

The boys below looked at each other in blank dismay. Obviously, they didn't expect Bai Xiaolei to dare to fight Cao Chen.

"Bai Xiaolei! As a member of Nanhu No. [-] High School Team, you, just continue to obey!"

Cao Chen's voice was so loud that it made the eardrums of the boys below hurt.

An angry Confucian commander-in-chief did make the boys below gain insight.

Even Zhang Ziyang and Gao Yi didn't dare to whisper to each other at this moment. The two of them quickly raised their heads and stood upright to listen to the lecture.

Seeing Cao Chen get angry, Bai Xiaolei couldn't believe it at first, but maybe Cao Chen's momentum was too strong, Bai Xiaolei chose to bow his head after being silent for a while.

"Yes!!!"

"Four laps!!!"

"Yes!!!"

Bai Xiaolei stepped out of the team neither humble nor overbearing, and trotted to the track alone.

This time, Cao Chen really wasn't just playing with anger.

This tactic was the only way Cao Chen came up with to save Nanhu No. [-] Middle School, but Bai Xiaolei stood up to do bad things—even though he was right, his behavior is called: saying the right thing on the wrong occasion !
Under the premise of the wrong occasion, no matter how correct Bai Xiaolei's words are, no matter how convincing the evidence, Cao Chen will not affirm his statement.

"Okay, okay, don't watch it, let's talk about tactics! Watch it again and go for a lap together!!!"

Since the other 22 team members looked around and looked at each other because Bai Xiaolei was punished for running the lap, Cao Chen had no choice but to be "fierce" for a while in order not to waste time.

Seeing that Cao Chen was so angry, the boys didn't want to become flames, so they hurriedly turned around and waited for Cao Chen to start today's training session.

"Well, everyone read that right. This is a 5-4-1 formation that basically only focuses on defense. The main strategic core lies in the word 'drag'! The tactical policy of dragging the game into a penalty shootout, when faced with some strength When facing an opponent that is difficult to resist, we need to use such a tactic..."

Although he got angry just now, Cao Chen was very patient and careful when it came to the tactical explanation, and pointed directly at the core of the tactical formation.

Soon, the tactical explanation session was over.

And after Cao Chen's tactics were finished, Bai Xiaolei's running circle just ended.

Panting, Bai Xiaolei came to Cao Chen to report.

"Coach Cao, I'm done."

"Well, in the 5-4-1 formation, your tactical responsibilities remain the same, the same as when you played 5-3-2, you understand?"

Seeing that Cao Chen had returned to normal, Bai Xiaolei quickly nodded silently, for fear of angering Cao Chen again.

Bai Xiaolei's position is the goalkeeper. This position is quite special. In many cases, no matter how the team changes, no matter how the tactics change, the responsibilities of the goalkeeper are basically the same, and there will be no change.

That's why Cao Chen dared to explain the tactics to the boys below when Bai Xiaolei was punished to run laps.

If it was Zhang Ziyang or Gao Yi who was punished for running laps just now, then Cao Chen would have no choice but to delay a little time until the punished player came back from the run to start explaining tactics.

"Okay, are you all okay?"

"No!!!"

This time, the voices of the boys below were not as aggressive as they were at the beginning of today's training session, and they seemed a little weak in momentum.

This was something Cao Chen expected.

There is no way, such a big change in tactics before the war, even if the players don't know it, their emotions will be affected.

"Okay then, let's get active, let's practice this set of 5-4-1 tactics today."

"Do you want to practice today? Uh..."

This time, it was substitute striker Li Lei who raised the question.

But immediately, Zhang Ziyang beside him hurriedly covered Li Lei's mouth, and signaled him with his eyes: "Stop talking!"

Although Li Lei's voice was not loud, it was enough to be heard by Cao Chen.

But Cao Chen had already punished him once, so he couldn't immediately punish him a second time, otherwise, what would the boys below think?

"Ahem, is it all right???"

Cao Chen deliberately raised his voice several decibels.

"No……"

Including Li Lei who was muttering just now, the 23 players below quickly gave Cao Chen an affirmative response.

"That's fine, let's warm up for a while."

As soon as Cao Chen finished speaking, there was a discordant singing voice on the court: "The boundless sky is my love, and the flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills. What kind of ballad is our favorite..."

Everyone looked at Cao Chen's trouser pockets in amazement. It turned out that Cao Chen's cell phone ringtone was so trendy, it was even more intoxicating than "slow motion with left hand and right hand"...

"Hurry up, I'll answer the phone."

Seeing the strange eyes of the big guys, Cao Chen glared at them, then ran to the side, and took out his antique "brick artifact" nokia from his trouser pocket.

"Huh? What is this number???"

The call came from an unfamiliar number, which Cao Chen didn't recognize. At this time, Cao Chen was thinking, should he answer it?

Due to the continuous ringing of the mobile phone, Cao Chen had no choice but to press the answer button.

"Hi, I'm Cao Chen..."

Who is calling this mysterious call? ? ?
