Chapter 233 A Rare Opportunity

At halftime, under Conte's 5 minutes of hair dryer lectures, half of the team's starting players bowed their heads in shame, and those who were not criticized by name also bowed their heads and dared not speak.

"Okay! Your question is clear, now listen to me."

With a wave of his hand, just after venting his dissatisfaction with the players' performance on the field, Conte began to talk about his arrangement: "In the second half, everyone cheered me up. Maybe you are not in a good state, but I want to see your enthusiasm."

In fact, what can Conte do? The poor state of the players has always been due to many factors, and it is definitely not just a matter of enthusiasm.

Like some strikers who haven't scored in many games, don't they want to score when they are playing on the field?Obviously not.

A player's poor state is reflected in many aspects. Forwards are mostly reflected in the poor shooting feeling, midfielders are manifested in passing and catching the ball should not make mistakes, and defenders are mostly reflected in the difficulty of concentrating.

In this situation, in addition to unpredictable factors, if the players themselves can deal with more positive emotions on the court, they can still achieve no merit or fault.

Therefore, Conte's first request to the players is very simple, and the mentality is correct.

The 5-minute hair dryer needs to arouse the attention of the players. The team has already slacked off after six unbeaten rounds. Even Conte himself started preparing with a relaxed attitude before this game, and he was caught off guard.

The sequelae caused by changing the players due to the international competition week is definitely not something that a midfielder can solve. Deep down in Conte's heart, he no longer expects to win this game. What he thinks about now is how to not lose points at home.

"Padalino, you came on for Antonio in the second half."

With a big wave of his hand, Conte first replaced Nocerino, who had a disastrous performance in the first half of the game. This young player who was called to the national team for the first time obviously overdrawn too much energy during the national team.

In the two days just returned to the team, Nocerino was able to complete the training tasks perfectly with the excitement of being called into the national team, but in this game, his overdrawn state was finally revealed.

"Okay." Padalino, who was sitting on the sidelines, didn't expect that he would get the chance to play at halftime, so he nodded in agreement.

As for Nocerino, he also knew how bad his performance in the first half was. After Conte made arrangements, he didn't say anything but just bowed his head and remained silent.

"Our next formation will be 442. After Padalino comes on the field, he will play the position of the left midfielder. Remember, your defensive task is infinitely heavier than the offensive. I need you and Fondo to control the ball and reduce Udinese's possession time."

"Racha, Marchisio, the two of you should be closer together in the midfield. Our formation needs to be compressed, so we don't give the opponent's striker a chance to run."

"Ok."

Conte is intensively arranging various changes for the team. He knows very well that the team's continuation of the 451 formation can stabilize the situation, but it also means that the team's offense will be completely paralyzed, which he does not want to see.

It is one thing to feel difficult to win, but quite another to give up the game altogether. Conte's approach is to flatten the team's formation and bring players closer together.

In this way, even if one player makes a mistake, other players can save it in time.

When the 442 formation really gets a chance to attack, it can quickly transform into a 424. The formation of four offensive players is enough to pose a threat to Udinese's gate.

"Okay, this is our home stadium, if you want our fans to see a defeat at your doorstep, then feel free to sleepwalk on the field!!!"

"I don't want to!!!"

With the last sentence, Conte once again rebounded from the players, and then signaled Liu Feng to lead the team to the stadium.

Everything that needs to be done has been done. Under such a tactical system, although Piacenza is defending heavily, it is not necessarily completely without opportunities. Whether the situation can be changed depends on how the players will perform on the field.

"Audience friends, welcome back."

In the commentary room, Liu Jianhong analyzed the data and electronic animations compiled by the staff for a while before entering the advertisement. Now he just picked it up: "The second half of the game will start soon, and Piacenza should make big changes."

Soon, the players of the two teams stood on the field again. After kick-off again, the changes in Piacenza were clearly displayed in people's eyes.

"Oh~, Nocerino, who had a disastrous performance in the first half, was replaced directly."

Looking at Piacenza's new formation, Liu Jianhong nodded: "Conte is very decisive. In addition to replacing bad players, he also fine-tuned the team's formation. Afeng and Cassia have returned to serve as the team's double forwards. It seems that Piacenza has no intention of giving up this game."

In the second half of the game, Udinese took the lead to kick-off. Wuji was obviously not satisfied with the situation of pressing and playing in the first half, only leading Piacenza by one goal, so it began to suppress Piacenza again at the first moment after the start of the second half.

After Conte gave a half-time lecture, the Piacenza players were in a very different state of depression on the field. In the case of Udinese's first wave of violent impact, they directly pushed down this time.

More than that, Padalino, who had just been replaced on the field, seemed quite active. After Nainggolan blocked Obodo to lose the passing space, he directly inserted a kick from the diagonal stab and broke the ball.

Then Padalino was in danger when facing Quagliarella who was stealing the ball, and he threw it away with a simple change of direction and successfully distributed the ball to Cassia in the middle of the field.

As one of Piacenza's few players who performed well in this game, Cassia did not disappoint his teammates this time. After resisting Udinese's midfielder who was in charge of defending him, Cassia easily controlled the ball at his feet.

"maple!!!"

Four or five meters away from the top of the arc in front of the penalty area, Cassia went to look for Liu Feng immediately after taking the ball. Having partnered with Liu Feng countless times, he knew very well that finding Liu Feng was definitely the best choice to help the team break the deadlock.

Seeing Liu Feng who raised his hand while running from the right position, Cassia directly swept the ball into Liu Feng's traveling position, then turned and ran towards the penalty area.

"Piacenza's rare offensive opportunity! A Feng got the ball under the defense of two Udinese, what will he do next?"

　Chapter 2 is delivered, people are useless, these two days are too tired.
