Chapter 933 Bad Boy Cassano
946 Bad Boy Cassano
England took the lead in making adjustments.

At this time, the Italian team was a little confused.

They originally thought that although this game would be difficult, with their strength, there should be no problem in defeating England, but now, they are two goals behind!
In a trance, the Italian team's offense began to be a little out of touch.

Instead, the England team fought back several times!
After the England team scored 2 minutes, the game No. 703 minutes.

Rooney took a long shot from the right side of the penalty area. The football hit the extension of the post and popped out of the baseline!

Although the goal was missed, it also scared the players and fans of the Italian team enough.

Prandelli was also so frightened that he almost had a heart attack.

If this goal is scored, this game will be completely useless!
"Although the England team replaced a stronger offensive winger and replaced it with a midfielder with stronger defensive attributes. But their counterattacks were smoother. They almost scored a goal just now. Unfortunately, the post blocked the luck of the Englishman!"

Duan Xuan said.

At this point, the Italian team was about to make a substitution.

Motta warms up on the sidelines.

Motta is actually a Brazilian, but he has dual citizenship of Brazil and Italy.

The veteran midfielder has an extremely strong physique.

With a height of 180 cm and good jumping ability, he has become a versatile midfielder.

He can run into the box as a second striker, and even has the physicality to play a center forward at certain times.

Good foot skills and a sense of position also allow him to participate in the series of midfielders. Even in the midfielder position, as a destroyer, Motta can also do a good job.

Although Motta is a versatile player, if he is replaced at other times, Gao Bo may still think about what position Prandelli will let this veteran play.

But, in this case, Prandelli's purpose is easy to guess.

He must step up his offense!

Therefore, Motta will definitely appear in the attacking position.

Second striker, even a center forward!
But who will Prandelli replace?
Gao Bo believes that Prandelli's substitution will show the opponent's mentality.

On the sidelines, the fourth official held up a substitution sign.

Motta played, replacing the bad boy Cassano.

Gao Bo grinned when he saw this substitution.

Prandelli deserves to be an Italian.

Two goals behind, still so conservative!
Replaced the offensive player Cassano with a frontcourt panacea.

From Gao Bo's point of view, this was basically the same as giving up the game.

Of course, Prandelli didn't think so.

In his opinion, although Motta is not a direct striker, it can strengthen the frontcourt pressing, and can bring the scene back a little bit, and then the driver can attack.

For the Italian team.

Balotelli is not the Balotelli he was a few years ago.

After several years of sinking, Balotelli is no longer the talented supernova he was back then.

Today's Balotelli is quite tasteless.

On the one hand, Balotelli, who returned to Serie A, is still the best striker in Italy.

However, compared with people's expectations of him back then, it was a lot worse.

You know, when Balotelli played in Italy when he was 15 years old, he created the record for the youngest player in the Italian professional league.

At that time, bad boy Balotelli was considered to have the potential to become the next striker of the level of Messi and Ronaldo.

However, a few years passed.

Balotelli is now 24 years old, but he has not met the expectations of Italian fans.

However, the entire Italian striker is also weak, and can only continue to let Balotelli occupy the main position.

This is also a kind of helplessness.

Italy has many central defenders, and they also had many excellent forwards back then.

Inzaghi, Baggio, Vieri, Tony.
However, Italian football in recent years has increasingly lacked the existence of excellent Italian strikers.

Balotelli is a darling, but now, he is becoming more and more an outcast.

Fortunately, in Prandelli's tactics.

Balotelli is just a more important tactical flag.

What he relies on more is the connection of Verratti-Pirlo in the midfield.

Therefore, he believes that the deployment of Motta can slightly disturb England's midfield, so that Italy can get some opportunities.

But
Is it really?
After the substitution is completed.

The camera first locked on Prandelli.

The Italian marshal looked very calm.

It seems that even if they lose this game, Italy will be able to securely qualify.

But everyone knows that Italy is already hanging by a thread.

If they lose, the initiative to qualify is no longer in their hands.

At this time, there was a burst of exclamation from the stands.

The camera switches hastily.

I saw that Cassano, who was substituted, had a look of injustice, and he was even a little reluctant to end.

He didn't even pay attention to Mota's outstretched hand, and went straight off the stage, still muttering words.

Then, facing Prandelli's outstretched hand, the famous Italian bad boy striker directly extended his thumb, and then applauded Prandelli.

Afterwards, he did not return to the bench, but walked directly to the player tunnel!

Prandelli's face was gloomy!

His outstretched hand froze in the air.

Before recruiting Cassano into the national team, Prandelli has publicly stated countless times in the media that he appreciates Cassano very much and believes that he can still make contributions to the national team.

Moreover, he does not think that the things that happened to Cassano when he was young will have any impact on his entry into the national team.

And Cassano also reciprocated. He cut his hair short this summer to prove his determination to be "conscientious".

However.
Such a scene completely disappointed Prandelli.

In his view, this is a normal tactical adjustment. Cassano has no chance on the front line, and the midfielder completely loses power.

Replacing him and replacing Motta will help the team.

This is purely a tactical consideration.

However, who would have thought that Cassano would be so shameless.

This bad boy who seems to have been 'good'.

In this arena.

In front of fans all over the world, he once again made an extremely out-of-season move!

this is really
Even Gao Bo was shaking his head.

With such a bad boy on the table, even he was having a headache for Prandelli.

Now this time, no matter how correct Prandelli's previous adjustments were, all the focus is no longer here.

Even the Italian players saw this scene, and their morale dropped a lot.

Infighting has always been one of the decisive factors for a team to overturn.
