Greenery on the back

Chapter 365 An Adversary From Sicily
It is also rented out to the second division to exercise. Yue Feng's teammates Lima and Ribeiro in Inter Milan's U19 are currently playing for Palermo.

Palermo has finally regained some vitality in the past two years. They have carefully planned this year and strengthened in multiple positions, trying to return to Serie A next season.

This was the last game at the end of August, and it was also the first time Empoli played at home this season. The Castellani Stadium was full of spectators, 8% of whom came to support Empoli.

But there are also many Palermo fans from Sicily. The rough and enthusiastic folk customs made these fans of the visiting team from outlying islands quickly become the highlights of the audience.

Although they do not have an advantage in numbers, the momentum on the scene is not inferior to their opponents.

As soon as Yue Feng entered the player tunnel, he saw his former teammates Lima and Ribeiro. It seems that Palermo also trusts this pair of new stars very much, and gave them a chance to start so soon.

"Yue!" Ribeiro shouted loudly, then spread his five fingers, Gao Gao raised his right hand to Yue Feng.

Thinking that the opponent was going to give me five, Yue Feng just made a high-five gesture, but Ribeiro suddenly opened his thick lips and said with a smile: "This game, don't let us score more than five goals."

"You mean, we will win the game 6-5?" Yue Feng replied with a smile.

All joking aside, but as a former teammate, Yue Feng is well aware of the strength of this duo of strikers, so he can't help but worry about his own defense.

After walking out of the channel, the two teams stood on the Castellani Stadium.Palermo is playing a 442 formation today, while Empoli is still playing a 352 formation.

Yue Feng and Uchida separated on the two wings, and together with Lima and Ribeiro, they staged the "Inter Youth Derby".

There are no big-name stars in the Palermo team, and the players introduced are all high-quality and low-cost players, either old monsters who are about to retire, or newcomers from wealthy teams who come to train.

This is also one of the reasons why Lima and the others can quickly provoke the leader.

Yue Feng knew that Luka's three central defenders alone would not be able to defend against each other, and even Lima alone could single out the three of them. Therefore, in the locker room before the game, he proposed to the head coach Ranocchia. A suggestion to help defend Lima.

"No need, Yue, I still need you to attack more on the wing. No matter how good Lima is, how many goals can he score?" Ranocchia said with some disdain: "If he scores, we can also score .”

It seems that Ranocchia, who was born as a central defender, also trusts his three central defenders very much.The defense line of Luca and others could withstand Sampdoria's offense before, not to mention the down-and-out Palermo.

Yue Feng had no choice but to implement tactics according to the arrangement of the head coach.

Palermo launched a fierce attack as soon as they came up. Their tactics are mainly long balls and lobs. Although there are four players in the team standing in parallel in the midfield, they do not insist on competing with Empoli for positions. The backcourt players went directly to the forwards.

Moreover, Palermo's long pass is not limited to 45°. They bloom more, and the middle road also contributed a lot of long passes of excellent quality.

Yue Feng stood on the left, but couldn't find his opponent for a while.Palermo piled two midfielders and a full-back on his side, but did not attack easily from this side.

"It seems that the opponent took special care of me today." Yue Feng smiled wryly, the three Palermo players in front of him did nothing but surrounded Yue Feng, neither letting him catch the ball nor giving him a chance to steal.

"This trick is probably thought up by Lima." Yue Feng knew Lima and the others very well, and Lima and the others also knew Yue Feng's strength.

The performance of the Coppa Italia and the first round of the league also made Palermo's head coach quickly agree with Lima's proposal, instead of being as stubborn as Ranocchia.

Palermo's several slams made Empoli's front door jittery.

The ball passed from the backcourt was often taken by the high center forward Ribeiro as the first point, and then he passed it to his partner Lima, who was alive and well in the Empoli penalty area and made two goals in just 10 minutes Quite a threatening shot.

Seeing this, Yue Feng frowned, thinking about how to deal with it.

Seeing that their team can still play such a fierce attack in an away game, the Palermo fans at the scene also became excited. They shouted loudly to cheer for the players on the field.

At the same time, in an apartment about 2 kilometers southeast of the Castellani Stadium, two young women were also watching the live broadcast of the game in front of the TV.

"Look! The one wearing the No. 11 jersey is Yue Feng!" An Lina pointed at the TV screen excitedly, "Also, this one is called Lima, and this one is called Ribeiro..."

"You know quite a few players." Wang Yongyin laughed.

"Of course, Aria, the guys I just mentioned played for my dad, and they came to my party when it was my birthday."

Wang Yongyin had no interest in football at first, but she has been nesting in this apartment for several days. Apart from surfing the Internet, the two of them have no entertainment activities.

It is rare to watch local games now, and Wang Yongyin is also happy to watch the game with her good friend An Lina.

"Which team do you support?" Wang Yongyin asked.

"We live in Empoli now, of course we support Empoli." Alina smiled, and then she pouted again, "However, they may lose today."

"Why?" Wang Yongyin, who couldn't understand the game, asked.

"Look, the pink jersey is Palermo, and the blue jersey is Empoli. Is the pink jersey playing against the blue jersey?"

Wang Yongyin shook her head, indicating that the other party couldn't see it at all.

"Hey, look at that pink number 9, which is what I called Lima. He just shot several goals. If it wasn't for his luck, he would have rewritten the score to 1-0." Alina explained , "I heard from my father that Lima is the most talented striker he has seen in recent years."

At this time, the camera suddenly gave Lima a big close-up shot. Just before speaking, Lima finally broke through Empoli's goal, and he was celebrating his goal with open arms.

"Look, I'm right, right? Yue Feng and the others want to win this game, so they can't continue playing like this." An Lina sighed.

Wang Yongyin nodded, thinking that this Alina Chivu is indeed a general, and she analyzed the game well.

In the Castellani Stadium, Yue Feng looked at the 0-1 scoreboard, and then at the head coach Ranocchia who was scratching his head on the sidelines.

Although the opponent asked him to attack from the side more in this game, but a clever woman can't cook without rice, the ball doesn't come to the left at all, so what can Yue Feng do?
In fact, Ranocchia is not without defense. The three central defenders plus two midfielders all stood beside the two forwards in Palermo.
