All-around center

"Croatia's wonderful counterattack. This goal gave us the advantage of the game and also gave us more control over the initiative!"

"The boys did a great job, play proactively and don't leave opportunities to the Israelis!"

Kraussiewicz shouted loudly.

There was pride in his voice.

After Davor Suker and others retired, he hasn't explained in such a proud tone for a long time.

For a long time, watching Croatia's games was a torment.

The front is weak and cannot open up the situation.

The defense is solid, but no matter how good the defense is, it can't withstand the opponent's indiscriminate bombardment.

Struggle again and again!

Failure again and again!

They finally ushered in the Suker 2.0 era again!

That’s right!

This is Suk’s heritage!

The legacy of Croatia’s legendary number 9!

From Davao Suker to Suker, Croatia’s No. 9 heritage is still there, and Croatia has always been the Eastern European cavalry.

Mandzukic's goal helped Croatia open up the situation.

At the same time, their morale also increased.

The Israeli players knew they were behind and became anxious overall.

As they advanced, they began to make frequent mistakes.

These mistakes were also exploited by Croatia in their counterattack.

However, Croatia's counterattack was not as fierce.

When they are in an advantageous situation, if it is not necessary or there is a good opportunity, they will not shoot easily, causing the ball to change hands.

Controlling the ball and always taking control of the game is the key.

"Suker and Rakitic kept passing the ball in the midfield. They played very patiently, controlling the ball while involving Israel's midfield and backfield!"

The situation has begun to turn towards Croatia.

Seeing this, Bilic couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and smiled: "The situation is stable!"

Van Stryak nodded; "That's for sure. Suker knows how to win better than anyone else."

"What do you think is Suk's greatest talent?"

Hearing this, Bilic was stunned for a moment.

He touched his chin, thought for a moment and responded: "Foot frequency? Ball feel? Scoring efficiency? Feeling in front of the goal?"

He talked a lot.

But Van Steyak shook his head and said: "It's the role positioning!"

"Role positioning?" Bilic was puzzled.

Van Steyak; "A game is not led by one person, but is completed by a group of people. How to let these people win accurately and exert sufficient combat effectiveness requires role positioning!"

"A team of 11 people, responsible for different tasks, must work together to win."

"I once thought that Suker was a lubricant that could make the team run smoothly as a whole. But later, I found that I was wrong. Suker is not a lubricant. He can just take on a lot of work and do it better than anyone else. Know how to win games.”

"So he will play various roles when needed to make the team more harmonious!"

"He is like a cog, big or small. If you ask him to do technical work such as dribbling and breakthrough, he can do it! If you ask him to do the action of classifying shots, he also does an excellent job."

Van Steyak points to the court.

"Even if you give him a job in the organization, he will still do a good job."

Bilic looked towards the court.

Suker frequently passes and receives the ball, while linking offense and organization.

In this game, Su Ke was active near the center circle and had no intention of following up the attack.

Even if he is following up, he will help to occupy more space.

I have to say, this guy is a super snake oil.

All coaches would love a player like this.

Can.

"He has no flaws?"

Bilic asked curiously.

Van Steyak nodded; "He has shortcomings, you will see them soon!"

The game entered the second half.

In the 56th minute, Suker assisted Rakitic to score again.

This allowed Croatia to open the score again.

When the game took a two-goal lead, Suker began to become a little unscrupulous.

This guy started taking frequent long-range shots from the outside.

There were a few times when he kicked the ball directly into the stands, but he still refused to change.

At the same time, Suk's mouth began to break, and he kept swearing.

"Can't even get in?"

"What number is this?"

"Why are you hesitating? Shoot! You are doubting the quality of my passing!"

"Damn it! Give me a shot!"

Suk became visibly irritable.

Mandzukic also dared to be angry but dared not speak.

Vukojevich also grinned and shook his head.

That's what's wrong with Suk.

It was like this a long time ago.

You can let him do auxiliary work, but you also have to endure Suk's violent temper.

This guy used to be more restrained, but now he can't stop him.

Even after Su Ke took several unsatisfactory long shots, he frequently had frictions with opposing players.

In the 71st minute, Bilic quickly replaced Suker.

As soon as he walked off the court, Suk started to show off.

Don't let strangers in.

Although he received two assists in this game.

But there was no goal!

Suk's resentful eyes always glanced at Bilic, but Bilic did not dare to look directly.

He knew very well what Suk's eyes meant.

‘Don’t let me do such a bad thing next time! ’

Bilic did not dare to offend Su Ke. After all, he was the team's biggest player and had a somewhat normal temper.

On the contrary, Van Stryak looked at this scene in amusement.

In his impression, Suk is a good boy who accepts everything.

He does whatever job he is given and is very obedient.

But with the change in status, this little guy also gradually changed.

Or...this guy was like this from the beginning.

Van Stryak had reason to believe that Suk could do such a thing.

After all, this guy was the guy who introduced himself to me in the tavern.

With Su Ke's exit, the situation on the court did not change much.

Israel is still suppressed by Croatia.

In this game, Suker's performance was very good, but the most outstanding one was Vukojevic.

Vukojevic's many key steals and interceptions helped Croatia stabilize its defense and was also suitable for counterattacks.

Moreover, Vukojevic also tried to counterattack several times. Although it was not as sharp as Modric, it was enough.

When the 90 minutes of play are over.

Israel lost 0:2 at home to Croatia and ultimately lost the game.

Croatia also won their third European Cup qualifying match.

Currently, Croatia ranks first in the group with a record of 3-1-0.

This victory also allowed Croatia to successfully complete all the 2006 European Cup qualifying schedule.

The remaining matches will start again in March 2007.

At this stage, Suker can also focus on the league and the Champions League.

"I wasted so many opportunities, how are you going to compensate me?"

In the locker room, Suk hooked Mandzukic's neck and shouted loudly.

Mandzukic was helpless; "I'll return the assist to you, okay?"

"Assist?" Su Ke was annoyed; "You can't hold back an assist for half a year, so let's get something else!"

Duimovich reminded in a low voice.

"Chinese food! Chinese food is okay!"

Suk turned to look at Duimovich, he blinked: "I almost forgot, you still owe me 6 lunches!"

"Five meals!" Duimovic protested fiercely: "After playing England last time, you had one meal, all in all five!"

Su Ke waved his hand: "Just five meals!"

After that, he looked at Mandzukic; "You owe me two more meals."

Mandzukic was dissatisfied: "Why?"

Su Ke coaxed: "If I don't pass the ball to you, you won't be able to score!"

Mandzukic suddenly withered.

"Damn it! Sure enough, all the goals are scored by Sun Tzu!"

In order to score goals, he had no choice but to admit defeat.

Simic came over.

"The tickets have been bought and we will go back to Milan tonight!"

Suk nodded.

Simunic walked over and asked with a grin, "About my transfer."

Su Ke; "Milan has already made some moves, probably during the winter break, but I can't guarantee it. I can only help you get here, and I can't control the rest."

Simunic nodded immediately; "No problem, I can handle the rest myself."

Simunic also did his homework to move to Milan.

For this reason, he is now very unhappy with Hertha Berlin.

But even so, Simunic still wants to join Milan.

At the peak of his career, he wanted to fulfill his dream of becoming a wealthy player.

This time is the closest he has ever been to a wealthy family, so naturally he won't give up.
