my football i call the shots

After being scored twice by the opponent within 10 minutes, the boys of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School suddenly became a little discouraged.

However, Cao Chen seemed to want to watch the boys being abused.

After the "Nanpai Zhifeng" scored the second goal, Cao Chen made a series of substitutions on the sidelines.

Cao Chen seemed to be not happy enough watching Nanhu No. [-] Middle School being abused like this. He made a large-scale rotation of the team's lineup, just as he promised the boys, he would let everyone in the team play in this game. Get a chance to play.

Ever since, except for Gao Yi and Wang Sheng who were replaced after the halftime break, the other 9 players were removed, and the replacements were those from the team who rarely showed up, or who never showed up at all. player of.

For example, Li Lei, the main striker last season, replaced Zhang Ziyang.

For example, the goalkeeper of the first and second grades of high school who was teased by Zhang Ziyang in the class friendly match, he replaced the depressed Bai Xiaolei.

Such a large-area rotation took 2 minutes to replace everyone, which also surprised Wu Qunli, because Cao Chen did not tell him that such a large-area rotation would be performed in the second half of the game.

However, knowing that the core players of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School were replaced except for Gao Yi who was still on the field, Wu Qunli could also directly conclude that Nanhu No. [-] Middle School was replaced by a group of substitute players.

After the large-scale rotation ended, the game resumed and continued.

In just 3 minutes, Wu Qunli was able to confirm his guess: indeed, almost all of the 9 players that Cao Chen replaced just now were the team's substitute players and fringe players.

Because these players seem to be restrained on the court, they are not as calm as the lineup just now, and, in terms of defense, this lineup is far from the lineup just now, with various low-level mistakes and frequent low-level loopholes, which also makes the "Southern Style" The players got more opportunities to directly face the goal of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

"South Wind" scored the third goal of the game in the 72nd minute.

This time, it was a simple and violent breakthrough with the ball directly in the middle.

This group of "rookie" players from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School did not dare to go directly to intercept like the players in the main lineup. The left and right of the field are sudden, and there is even a taste of Ronaldo possessing himself and doing it alone.

After passing three or four defensive players in a row, the player directly kicked the goal near the twelve-yard point in the penalty area of ​​Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

The level of the substitute goalkeeper is obviously not comparable to that of Bai Xiaolei, or it should be said that the depth of the bench at the goalkeeper position of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School is the weakest link.

But fortunately, the goalkeeper position is the position where the least physical strength or injury occurs, so Cao Chen doesn't need to worry too much.

The rookie goalkeeper in the first and second classes of senior high school faced the opponent's shot. He didn't even make a save move, just watched the ball go straight to the upper right corner of the goal behind him.

3 to 0! ! !

This friendly match, which had been suspenseful in the first half, no longer had any suspense at this moment. The veteran players of the "Southern Style" completely abused this group of recruits from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

Witnessing the third goal of the "Southern Wind", Cao Chen was also not angry. He started shouting from the sidelines, mainly to encourage the boys.

"The defensive line is well organized, don't let the opponent dribble the ball over so easily, and the players should be closer together to help defend."

"The players in the frontcourt try to return to the midfield and backcourt to assist in the defense, help everyone share the pressure, and don't let the opponent send the ball into our penalty area so easily."

"Organize the defense well, remember! Defense is the first. When you see the opportunity, you should intercept it directly. Try not to lose the ball in the next time."

……

Cao Chen's voice was very peaceful, just like supplementing tactical points in a training class, without the anger of being bloodbathed by the opponent's three goals at all.

Obviously, Cao Chen didn't care about the result of this match.

After all, there is a difference in strength and the nature of the competition. Cao Chen cares about the outcome, and that is putting pressure on the boys.

It was precisely because of Cao Chen's relaxed attitude and tone that the boys from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School who came on as substitutes did not lose their fighting spirit completely.

After continuing to kick off, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School, which mainly consisted of substitute players, reorganized its defense under the guidance of Cao Chen, trying to intercept the attack of the "Southern Wind" outside the penalty area.

Facts have proved that these guys performed so badly more because of their mentality.

Under the guidance of Cao Chen, the "psychological masseuse", those players who had never had a chance to play in an official game began to stabilize their mentality.

After their mentality stabilized, their performance also began to improve.

For example, in terms of defensive positioning, they are no longer as loose and bad as before, and their interception strength has also risen to a higher level. Although they are still not comparable to the defensive strength of the main lineup, they are not only better than before.

The players of the "Southern Wind" are still looking for opportunities patiently. After all, they are a group of experienced "old actors", and they are not as impatient as young people.

Under this kind of patient search for pass and control, the weak defensive formation of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School still looks precarious.

However, coach Wu Qunli did not mean to "kill them all".

At the 78th minute of the game, coach Wu Qunli also carried out a rotation of the lineup. Although he did not change 9 players in a row as crazy as Cao Chen, the rotation area of ​​coach Wu Qunli was not small, with a total of five players on the field. The other five players, including former Guo Zihao goalkeeper Pan Weimin, who started the field from the first half, were replaced.

After all, the "Southern Style" still needs to play amateur league games on weekends, and coach Wu Qunli needs to give his players some rest time.

Moreover, the players on the field of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School at this time are just a group of marginal players on the bench. As an old international footballer who cares about the development of grassroots football, Wu Qunli understands very well that it is very important to give these boys a certain amount of confidence. Doing too much in the games where they rarely play, otherwise it will be very detrimental to their growth.

Taking advantage of the gap between the "Southern Wind" substitutions, Cao Chen on the sidelines hurriedly called Gao Yi to his side, as if there was some new order that needed to be given to him.

"What's the matter, Coach Cao???"

Seeing Cao Chen's haste, Gao Yi was puzzled.

"Ahem, Xiaoyi like this, if I change you from the wing to the position of a single center forward, are you sure you can give your opponent a fatal blow?"

"Uh……"

Hearing Cao Chen's words, Gao Yi was stunned for a moment.

Because the single center is really unfamiliar to Gao Yi.

When he was a junior brother on the football field, Gao Yi was no longer fighting alone in the frontcourt. He was surrounded by his good friend Lin Yaocong who had played since he was a child. Black bear and cheetah" combination.

After Nanhu No. [-] Middle School transferred to Nanhu No. [-] Middle School, although "Cheetah" lost "Black Bear", he gained Zhang Ziyang, a striker partner with different characteristics from Black Bear.

"Little Ibrahimovic" Zhang Ziyang can give Gao Yi different support, so that Gao Yi can display his extraordinary speed more unscrupulously in the frontcourt.

At this moment, Cao Chen let Gao Yi stand on the front line alone, and Gao Yi inevitably panicked.

After all, he had never practiced such a thing.

After hesitating for a while, Gao Yi considered that there were only ten minutes left in this friendly match, so he agreed without hesitation.

After all, I can also take advantage of this opportunity to try the feeling of being alone on the front line.

Gao Yi hasn't even figured out whether he has the potential to play a single center forward.

After Gao Yi was confirmed, Cao Chen happily greeted Wang Sheng who came to the sidelines, and confessed eagerly, after all, the substitution adjustment on the "Southern Wind" side was almost over.

"Ah Sheng, later on, I will ask Li Lei to switch to the left wing and let Gao Yi stand at the front alone. If you get the ball in the backcourt, don't hesitate to throw the ball directly to the frontcourt. It’s just Gao Yi, do you understand???”

Wang Sheng nodded heavily: "Well, I understand!"

"Okay, let's go back. They're about to finish the substitution. Anyway, remember, go directly to the front court from the backcourt, and play the counterattack more concisely."

Gao Yi and Wang Sheng nodded at the same time, and then hurried back to the court, because the "Southern Wind" had completed all substitutions and was about to take a throw-in to continue the game.

Looking at the situation on the field, Cao Chen on the sidelines began to hold his chin and think about his arrangement just now.

The original intention of this arrangement is to try Gao Yi's effect of playing a single center forward in the frontcourt.

There is an essential difference between playing a second striker and a single center forward. The second striker does not need to face the opponent's "muscle group" too directly. They swim behind the center forward and bring fatal attacks to the opponent's goal under the cover of the center forward. one strike.

As for the players who play as a single center, they need to have a "single-handed" attribute, using their physical advantages, against the opponent's "muscle group" in the backcourt to win the pass from their teammates, and complete this time based on whether there is assistance from teammates. attack.

But in the game, it is often necessary for a single center to fight alone when one person faces two or three defensive players.

For example, Zhang Ziyang, he has this strong "go it alone" attribute in the professional team.

Gao Yi's individual combat ability is actually quite good, but Gao Yi has never tried it. He stood alone in the front and faced various challenges without his striker partner.

At this time, Cao Chen also hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to test and see if Gao Yi, the "cheetah", can give an impressive report card when he owns a large grassland by himself?
Although Cao Chen doesn't need Gao Yi to play as a single center in terms of the current tactical arrangement, it's still good to take advantage of this insignificant friendly match to learn more about the team.

Letting Gao Yi stand alone on the front line is not only a test, but also related to the "face problem" between Cao Chen and Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

Because of the strange agreement made by Xiao Wang and the captain of the "Southern School Wind", Nanhu No. [-] Middle School's counterattack has been unable to open. Cao Chen wanted to try to make Gao Yi face the "Southern School Wind" more directly. "The direction of the goal gave Gao Yi the opportunity to display his terrifying speed in the frontcourt, thus helping the team score a face-saving blow.
