Chapter 131 Tactics from Uncle Zha

Chapter 131 Tactics from Uncle Zha

On the way home, Xia Qi tried not to look into Trusova's eyes. She was so distressed, how could she tactfully refuse?
Why are kids so precocious nowadays?
When I was 15 years old, I only knew how to sleep with a football.

Trusova didn't care much about Xia Qi. She and Xia Pinger counted today's signatures and put a price on each item.

Ordinary signatures are two euros, poster signatures are eight euros, jerseys are 280 yuan, footballs are 350 yuan...

Xia's mother was driving the car intently, but she didn't notice her eldest son's distress.

Xia Qi returned to his room, sighed and took out the letter.

Hey, there are two pieces of letter paper?
One was on delicate letter paper, with a faint scent of tulips.

One useless letter paper, A4 art paper, with a cartoon bear skating on it, and the letter next to it.

Huh!Russian?Isn't Junior Sister practicing Chinese? She also uses Chinese to settle accounts with Xia Ping'er.

The little girl may be a little shy, afraid that her sister will find out, so she uses Russian.

The last time Xia Qi was rewarded by the system was Russian CET-[-], so he could understand it.

After reading it, Xia Qi realized that he was overthinking it, and it wasn't Trusova's love letter at all, but Trusova's Northeast girl's temperament, calling every day that I like senior brother, do I still need to write a love letter?
The letter was from K Bao and Qian Jin from Sanwali, time flies by.The three children are about to fit together, and they are preparing for the World Figure Skating Championships in Canada at the end of December. The Russian figure skating team is gathering in Milan to prepare for the competition.

The reason why I chose to prepare in Milan instead of Russia is because I have to train with several Nordic countries, and they pay for it.

K Bao and Qianjin wrote to Xia Qi because football is the number one sport in Europe. The two girls wanted to watch the game live, and at the same time wanted to join Xia Pinger's cheerleading team, and also wanted a signed jersey from Xia Qi.

After Xia Qi saw it, he felt a little bit disappointed, and felt even more uncomfortable.Man, what a jerk!

Xia Qi took a look at the game schedule. Tomorrow, he will play against Sampdoria. Kebao and Qianjin will not be able to catch up. Next week, November 11th, they will play an away game against Wuji Udinese, and next week, November 4th, they will play against Juventus at home. This case is always the highlight of Serie A.

I don't know if the two little beauties are free.

Xia Qi began to write back, inviting the little beauty to come to San Siro as a guest...

Ever since Mother Xia played the referee, Father Xia never went back. The whole family stayed in Milan and stood together through thick and thin.

In Milan, Xia's father found a new job as a purchasing agent for people in China. Can you imagine it?
In the fashion capital of Milan, the most frequently purchased products are not clothing or perfumes of major brands, but baby milk powder.

Father Xia's business is very good. This has nothing to do with Xia Qi. He didn't take advantage of his son's domestic popularity to do business. This is due to the economic development in the country in the past few years. The people have money and have higher quality of life, and it is also thanks to the tariffs.

This kind of purchasing agency is actually a win-win situation, and the tariffs of China and Italy may be... huh.

Xia's father is very busy, his orders are a bit scattered and he has to go to many shopping malls every day, but no matter how busy he is at his son's home court, he still has to support him. He and Xia's mother are now the leaders of the cheerleading team.

The Chinese are very economical. Dad Xia exchanged the three ordinary VIP boxes given to his family by the club for eight tickets to the main stand, which was more than 60 euros more.

Because it is a free ticket, the club will not refund them but sent a few dozen drinks and beer.

After getting up in the morning, Mama Xia made some desserts and snacks, and took them to the stadium in the afternoon.

Two flowers bloomed, each showing one branch. Of course, Xia Qi couldn't be with his family.

As usual, he got up at six o'clock for morning exercises, drank a glass of milk and ate a boiled egg to fill his stomach, and went to the club for formal training.

Today's training is very easy and focuses on recovery, which is to store energy for the game tonight.

Afternoon is tactical class.

Gattuso drew the lineups of the enemy and the enemy on the whiteboard.

Pointing to the red dotted line, he said: "...their tactic is high-position pressing, which is a popular style of play in recent years. We have already targeted this in training."

At the same time, on the training ground of Inter Milan, Sampdoria's head coach Giampaolo said to the players: "AC Milan is a team younger than us. You have to be careful of this Chinese. He is the real core of AC Milan. We have already drilled his technical characteristics..."

The match between AC Milan and Sampdoria did not attract much attention. If you see that the San Siro Stadium is not full, you know that it is not as popular as the Milan Derby.

This is also the reason for the decline of Serie A. Its ball market is not as popular as the Premier League and Bundesliga.

.........

The time is fast, when it's game time, after the players warm up, they go back to the locker room to rest for 15 minutes before starting to play.

…………

Xia Qi stepped onto the lawn, and the light screen lit up:

Long-term mission: the Medal of Bright Ball (Silver), already worn.

Side mission: Win the title of "Prince of Milan" within three months

Complete the task: reward 300 gold coins, 200 blue coins, and 150 green coins.

Rewards: One simulation card, two training cards and four free attribute points.

Failure: deduct two points from any physical attribute, one point from the technical attribute, and one point from the mental attribute

Xia Qi is very satisfied with the reward, but he also knows that the heavier the reward, the more difficult the task will be.

The prince of Milan must be reserved for Maldini Jr. Xia Qigen is not as popular as he is, and he can only have this title by super performance.

beep!
sentry
Not long after the game started, Shaggy saw Sampdoria's football style.

It is true that the three lines stand very close together, and the back line is pressed very high.

This style of playing with tens of meters behind seems dangerous, but in fact, the famous scumbag Klopp used this tactic to prevent the decline of the Hornet, making it a "big madman" for two consecutive years and breaking Bayern's Bundesliga monopoly.

When it comes to our army, this tactic still won two runners-up in the league and the Europa League in an incomplete season.

After the successful cases of Uncle Zha in Dortmund and Liverpool, there has been a wave of high-position pressing tactics in European football.

Many teams also play a 433 formation, and Sampdoria is one of them.

Sampdoria's style of play requires that each player is not far apart, three lines, and the distance between each line is kept very tight.

The integration of the three lines is like a cage that traps the opponent in it. The active high position press makes it difficult for the opponent to send the football out of the cage.

As soon as their opponents get the ball, even at the front of their own penalty area, they will be pressed by Sampdoria players. This creates an unprecedented tense atmosphere, making it difficult for the players holding the ball to handle the ball calmly and calmly. During the process of the opponent's pressing, there will be many mistakes.

And those mistakes would immediately translate into Sampdoria's offense.

Gattuso repeatedly emphasized to the AC Milan players that Sampdoria is a very good defensive team. Indeed, their number of conceded goals is currently the least in Serie A.

But Shaqi has a different view from his head coach.He doesn't think this is Sampdoria's good defensive team, on the contrary, he thinks Sampdoria is a team that is better at attacking.

Sampdoria led by Giampaolo did not play defensive football, but offensive football.

Why is there such a perception?
Because Uncle Zha's 433 lineup has never been a defensive formation. When Shaki played Quaresma in the system, he listened to the lessons of Mourinho and Uncle Zha Klopp, and compared the advantages and disadvantages of the two.

Uncle Zha's 433 can be recognized by the Italian coach because their defense starts from the forward.

The defense begins with the top two strikers harassing the opponent's central defender with the ball.

As soon as the ball is passed, all players will start to press their opponents forward, and at the same time they will maintain a tight position near the midfield.

By compressing space and isolating opponent players through purposeful continuous movement, the opponent does not have much time and space to organize attacks, and it is difficult to penetrate their compact and orderly formation.

It seems to be defending the opponent, but in fact, this kind of collective oppression will give Sampdoria many opportunities to counterattack on the spot in the frontcourt, which is why they create so many scoring opportunities.

This is why Shaqi feels that Sampdoria's style of play cannot be called defensive.

Of course, Uncle Zha's style of play is not invincible, as long as it is a system composed of people, there will definitely be loopholes.

Judging from the opening 10 minutes, Sampdoria's tactics were undoubtedly successful.

Their high pressing made AC Milan exhausted in the midfield and it was difficult to play football to the frontcourt.

This kind of scene looks very embarrassing, but it is actually like two boxers, one punches quickly, and the other doubles his fists to protect the scoring point.

It seemed that someone had beaten him enough, but in fact, the person who punched didn't get a single point.

But outsiders don’t know, Xia Ping’er and Trusova watched anxiously. They led the cheerleading team and shouted: “Milan, Nicoli! Milan, Nicoli!”

Ninety percent of the AC Milan fans in the audience were worried about their team. They didn't even know that Shaqi and his teammates were testing their opponents.

After Xiaqi led the team to adapt to Sampdoria's three axes.

Instead of waiting for the football, he ran towards it, and the Sampdoria player who followed him chased after him.

Shaqi didn't stop the ball, and directly passed the football from the future to Romagnoli, who was not far away from him, and then he turned and ran forward.

The Sampdoria player who followed him had just caught up and had to turn around and chase again.

Romagnoli passed the football back to Shaqi, who was going forward, and then he rushed to Shaqi's left, but Shaqi did not pass the football to him, but distributed it to Maldini in front of him on the right.

Maldini Jr. has his back to the attacking direction, and with Sampdoria's central defender Anderson behind him, it is difficult to turn around.

He didn't mean to turn around with the ball, but directly passed the football back to Xia Qi.

Then he turned and ran forward.

Anderson, who was in charge of supporting him, did not run back with him, but ran forward, rushing towards Xia Qi.

Put little Maldini behind completely.He is not worried at all that Shaqi will pass the football to Maldini again.

In other words, he wished Shaqi would make a pass like that, because that would mean that AC Milan's attack would end here!
He ran forward, which was requested by the head coach Giampaolo, because of Sampdoria's high-position pressing tactics, their back line is often very far away from the goalkeeper, which requires them to use more offside tactics when defending

In this way, once the opponent is anxious to fight back, it is easy to fall into Sampdoria's offside trap.

With offsides and a goalkeeper with a wide range of activities, Giampaolo has made up for the weakness of high-position pressing as much as possible. From the perspective of the league, the effect is not bad.

Sure enough, when Anderson went up to grab the ball, he saw Shaqi pass the football behind him, so he raised his arm high, signaling AC Milan's Maldini Jr. to be offside.

But he didn't hear the referee's whistle. Looking back, the football didn't fly to Maldini Jr. in the middle, but flew to the ribs, and Romagnoli received the ball.

There was a burst of exclamation from the stands!
Anderson was stunned, even if it was for Romagnoli.

Romagnoli is offside too? ? ?
Sampdoria coach Giampaolo, who has been sitting on the coaching bench, was going to see how AC Milan was trapped by the cage he prepared.

But now he saw Shaqi pass the football behind Anderson, and the football fell to Romagnoli's feet. He also thought he would hear the referee's whistle.

But no, he turned his attention to the lineman and found that the lineman did not raise the flag, but ran after him!
Giampaolo stood up from his seat in shock.

Not offside? ! ! ! !
This ball turned out to be...
"Strike, a wonderful pass from AC Milan's midfielder Xia Qi, not offside!"

The commentator Noy, who was in charge of explaining the game, said.

He saw it clearly from the commentary booth. If Shaqi passed the football to Maldini, of course it would be offside, but Romagnoli stepped in from behind.
After Maldini drew the attention of the Sampdoria defender, he suddenly cut in from the wing and made a diagonal run to avoid putting himself in an offside situation.

The series of consecutive passes from the AC Milan midfielder made his eyes shine.

The cooperation of these three people in AC Milan means that Milan's tactical players are very skilled, and they usually practice a lot.

After receiving the ball, Romagnoli did not hesitate.Although he is not sure whether he is offside, but

Whether it is offside or not is a matter for the referees to decide. As long as the referee's whistle does not sound, he will keep running forward with the ball until the football is scored into the goal.

He raised his head and glanced at the front, it was really endless, the vastness was like a grassland...

What is there to hesitate? Let's gallop freely!
Romagnoli dribbles the ball towards Sampdoria's goal.

Horrified boos from the visiting fans in the stands were quickly drowned out by the chants of AC Milan fans.

When Romagnoli dribbled the ball, Sampdoria goalkeeper Audero also chose to abandon the goal.

In fact, when Shaqi passed the football, Odeiro rushed straight out of the goal.

Regardless of whether the ball is offside or not, this is what he must do. If it is offside, it is nothing more than a false alarm.

But what if he is not offside? His move may buy himself a little more time.After all, wait until you see the opponent's player catch the ball before attacking, the opponent will be very calm.

Audero's habit can effectively increase his defensive range, allowing him to clear the balls missed by the back line in time.

This is the reason why Uncle Zha's tactics must have a goalkeeper with a wide range of activities.

But this time...

Even if he strikes out in time, he is still a bit powerless.
Romagnoli, who received the ball, saw that Odeiro chose to abandon the goal and directly chose to lob.

When Audero ran near the penalty spot,
Romagnoli kicks in.

He rubbed the football into a parabola and flew from the air to the goal.

Audero quickly retreated, then soared into the air, raising his arms, trying to throw out Romagnoli's lob shot
It's a pity he didn't touch anything, Romagnoli shot the ball over his palm and went straight into the goal
1: 0!

Twelve minutes into the game, AC Milan already took the lead by one goal.

Seeing the football fly into the goal, Romagnoli turned and ran to the coach's bench.

 In real time and space, Giampaolo replaced Gattuso as the head coach of AC Milan in the summer of 19.

  Samp's main lineup (4312)]

  Goalkeeper: 1 Audero

  Defenders: 24 Bereshinski, 3 Anderson, 26 Tonelli, 29 Mulu
