my football i call the shots

The 15-minute halftime break passed quickly, and the boys felt that they had only had a short break. The referee had signaled them to enter the field and take their positions, ready for the second half of the game.

Since it was just a warm-up match, everyone's rules were very relaxed.

The tactical arrangement for the second half at Nanhu College hasn't been fully finished yet. They have applied for an extra 5 minutes of rest time. After all, the training just now took nearly 8 or [-] minutes. How could it be possible to give a complete explanation of the second half arrangement all at once? ?

The lads in Nanhu No. [-] Middle School are enjoying themselves.

After all, being able to rest for a while is a while, and it can also make the physical fitness of the second half more secure.

After waiting for Nanhu College to settle the matter completely, the referee also signaled the two teams to enter the field quickly and get ready to start the second half of the game.

Both sides moved very quickly, and they appeared in their respective halfs in an orderly manner within a minute.

"Beep..."

Seeing that both sides were ready, the referee was not pretentious, and quickly blew the whistle to start the second half of the game.

The second half of the game officially begins! ! !
The home team Nanhu No. [-] Middle School kicks off! ! !
As arranged during the halftime break, Gao Yi and Zhang Ziyang were not in a hurry to push forward after the kick-off, but gave the ball to the midfielder, and the midfielder passed a few kicks to see that the opponent's forward player had already pressed up , They continued to return to the backcourt, and the backcourt continued to return to goalkeeper Bai Xiaolei.

Then everyone knows what happened next. Nanhu No. [-] Middle School played their most familiar backcourt very skillfully. That kind of proficiency made the head coach of Nanhu College on the sidelines look dumbfounded—how could he not I would never have imagined that Nanhu No. [-] Middle School would be so rogue and play backwards in the second half, so what is the point of warming up like this?
Seeing this situation, the head coach of Nanhu College had no choice but to negotiate with Cao Chen on the other side.

"Coach Cao, hello."

Seeing the opponent's head coach walking towards him, Cao Chen was also a little surprised, after all, he was not very familiar with the opponent.

"Hello, Coach Fan."

"Ah, you're welcome, it's Coach Cao like this..." Coach Fan of Nanhu College paused, and then expressed his own thoughts with a face of doubt: "I think, since it's a warm-up match, you should Don't be so conservative, let your players attack and kick, and don't fall down."

"Uh……"

Cao Chen couldn't laugh or cry when he was questioned by the opponent's head coach: "The question you mentioned..."

Speaking of this, Cao Chen thought for a while. After all, he couldn't directly say: This kind of rogue backcourt is actually a natural way of playing for our players, and I don't need to give orders at all.

So, Cao Chen thought of a more mellow explanation: "Oh...it's because your team's offense is too fierce. I hope we can base ourselves on defense first, stretch the formation and then confront your team head-on. After all, right? , We are a high school team, you are a college team, this is also our helpless move."

"Hmm..." When Cao Chen said this, Coach Fan of Nanhu College didn't know what to say. Maturity must be one of your team's trump cards."

After receiving such a "praise" from the opponent's coach, Cao Chen immediately blushed: "It's not bad, I will use it in games occasionally."

"Well, I won't disturb your command."

After all, Coach Fan of Nanhu College flicked his sleeves and returned to his coaching position.

Of course, Cao Chen's statement belongs to Cao Chen's statement. Facing the opponent's almost rogue backcourt, he still needs to make certain tactical instructions.

After the head coach of Nanhu College returned to his coaching bench, he waved decisively to signal his team to press forward.

At this time, only 5 minutes into the second half, Nanhu College was ready to launch a fierce attack!

Other schools seldom choose to push their formation up against Nanhu No. [-] Middle School. After all, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School has Gao Yi, a fast horse, but Nanhu College has not worried about such problems, because after their formation prerequisites, the distance between the three lines It is still very balanced. It is not like other Nanhu Affiliated High Schools of the Southern Academy of Sciences. The frontcourt is based on the premise, and the backcourt is cut off from the midfielder, leaving Gao Yi with a large space to take the ball and counterattack.

Looking at the opponent's well-trained overall formation, Cao Chen silently praised them in his heart.

After all, it is a top-ranked team in the college student league, so it still has a certain magic weapon, otherwise it would seem a little sorry for their ranking.

Gao Yi has been looking for possible vacancies in the opponent's midfield and backcourt since the opponent's formation was premised, but unfortunately, no matter how much he looked around, he still couldn't find anything in the end.

Therefore, Gao Yi could only obediently follow Zhang Ziyang and retreat a little to assist his teammates in the midfield to catch the ball.

After Nanhu College's formation premise was suppressed upwards, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School also faced certain difficulties.

毕竟本场比赛踢的是4-4-2双后腰站位，不像第一轮那样的5-3-2阵型。

In the first round of the match, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School had an "inverted command tower" like Ouyang Rui in the backcourt to direct and make transfers. Now, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School can only rely on the goalkeeper Bai Xiaolei who is almost standing on the line of the penalty area. Made a layover.

Although the situation is embarrassing, at least there will be no conceding the ball.

The opponent Nanhu College saw that their close pressing had achieved certain results, and they also pressed harder and harder.They no longer looked at the game with the attitude of "big brother" kicking "little brother", but corrected their attitude and used more physical contact to force the boys of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School to lose their feet easily.

Facts have proved that after correcting their attitude, Nanhu College immediately improved their combat effectiveness.

The Nanhu No. 0 Squadron, which had held on to a 0-[-] score for nearly an hour, was not lucky after all. Under the suppression of this absolute strength, they also made fatal mistakes in the midfield and backcourt!

In the 58th minute, Wang Bo and central defender Zhang Ziqi made a mistake in the pass. Because Zhang Ziqi's pass was a little weak, the ball was easily intercepted by the opponent's fast forward.

The fast horse forward with the ball used his skillful dribbling skills to easily pass Zhang Ziqi and Wang Sheng's double-team, facing Bai Xiaolei calmly shot, and finally knocked on the door of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

1 to 0! ! !

The speed of the opponent stealing the ball was too fast, which also made it difficult for the boys of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School to react and organize an effective defense, and the opponent handled the single-handed ball very calmly and properly, which also made Bai Xiaolei powerless.

The situation on the court changed suddenly. The score was 0-0 just now, but the deadlock was broken by the opponent because of a mistake.

This is a strong team!

As long as you make a mistake and give them a chance, they will deal you a fatal blow and make you regret your stupid mistake!
"Oh... I still lost the ball after all."

Cao Chen on the sidelines watched his opponent score the goal with lightning speed, and he immediately felt like returning from a dream to reality.

Although he always said to his team members: "The outcome of this game is irrelevant."

But Cao Chen still expected his team to win this game. After all, the opponent was a college student team. Let alone a victory, even a draw would be enough to boost the morale of the army. In the third round against Nancheng Middle School There is even higher morale in the game.

However, in terms of the gap in absolute strength, Cao Chen still had to be convinced.

After the opponent corrected their attitude, their strong overall strength gradually came into play. This kind of strong overall strength was not something that the half-baked defense line of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School could resist.

Seeing that his team looked a little downcast after losing the ball, Cao Chen also hurriedly shouted from the sidelines to encourage the boys to cheer up, after all, it is not long before the second half begins.

"Everyone, come on! It's okay! Continue to organize the defense well, pass and catch the ball to reduce mistakes, and if you can't do it, clear the siege with a big foot to reduce the chance for the opponent to counterattack."

But in fact, this conceded goal did not break the confidence of the boys.

After all, everyone understands that the opponent is a powerful team, and they are not at the same level of confrontation at all. It is normal to be scored.

This kind of good mentality also allowed the boys to continue to fight in high spirits even when the score was behind. After the deadlock was broken, the players on both sides quickly returned to their respective halfs, waiting for the second half of the game. ball.

"Beep..."

The referee's whistle sounded very quickly, and the game continued immediately!

It was still Nanhu No. [-] Middle School who kicked off.

However, this kick-off started with a goal behind.

At this time, the game has entered the 60th minute, and the situation is still the same as the beginning of the second half. After the kick-off, Gao Yi and Zhang Ziyang gave the ball to the midfielder, and the midfielder passed a few kicks. It can be seen that the opponent's forward player has already pressed up. , They continued to return to the backcourt, and then continued to return to the goalkeeper Bai Xiaolei in the backcourt. Bai Xiaolei, the "scavenger goalkeeper" in this game, continued to move forward to the line of the penalty area to dominate the backcourt.

The head coach of Nanhu College watched with great interest the boys from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School continue to backcourt, but this time he did not come to the door to "complain". After all, his team had already led by one goal, so he was naturally unscrupulous A spectator's mentality to appreciate the "picturesque" downside.

At this time, the anxious person became Cao Chen.

After the team conceded the ball, Cao Chen understood that his team could no longer continue to fall in the backcourt.

Although this trick is useful for opponents in the high school football league, for a team like Shangnanhu Academy whose strength is completely disproportionate between the two sides, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School's backcourt is just an opportunity for the opponent to counterattack.

No, just when Cao Chen was thinking about how to make a change, Nanhu Academy succeeded in stealing the ball again, but this time their fast horse striker didn't seize the opportunity. His shot was too straight and was caught by Bai Xiaolei Easily confiscated.

"How should I adjust it? Neither attacking nor defending! Sigh..."

This embarrassing scene also caused Cao Chen to have a head and a head.

Seemingly feeling that Cao Chen's tranced body in front of the coach's bench hides a heart of hard thinking, assistant coach Wang Tingrui also decided to come forward and give Coach Cao some advice.

"Uh, Director Cao, what's wrong with you???"

Worried about breaking Cao Chen's thoughts, Xiao Wang whispered in Cao Chen's ear, with a cautious expression on his face, like a child who wants to ask his parents for pocket money.

"Oh, nothing, just thinking about some tactical issues."

"Director Cao, if you don't mind...can you share your problem with me?"

"Oh???"

Hearing Xiao Wang's words, Cao Chen was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Wang to volunteer to stand up, hoping to share some worries for him.

At this time, Xiao Wang's face was neither humble nor overbearing, and his expression was extremely serious, it didn't look like he was joking with Cao Chen at all.

"Then..." Cao Chen thought for a while, and there is a common saying: Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.Since Xiao Wang asked sincerely, Cao Chen should show mercy and tell him.

So, Cao Chen sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then explained to Xiao Wang the problem in his mind: "Xiao Wang, you have also seen that our backcourt can hardly play a defensive role now, and the frontcourt is tight. The pressure is so tight, how do you think I have to arrange it to reduce the pressure on the team's backcourt?"

"This problem..." Xiao Wang frowned at first, but soon, he found a solution from his years of experience in "Football Manager".

"Actually, Director Cao, since we can't control the ball, why don't we give the ball to the opponent? Let the opponent control the ball as much as possible, let's set up an iron bucket formation to intercept, and that's the end of it!"

After all, Xiao Wang said with an intoxicated face: "Like my favorite Atletico Madrid in La Liga, this is how they play, let the opponent control the ball enough, they are based on defense, and the three lines are fully involved in the defense. Once the opponent If you make a mistake, seize the opportunity to fight back quickly... Hey, don’t talk about it! Our formation is quite similar to the 4-4-2 double midfielder formation used by Simeone when he won La Liga.”

If Xiao Wang's words were just a fan-to-fan exchange, then he would definitely be sniffed at, and then give Xiao Wang the reputation of "the king who understands football".

However, Cao Chen did not do this!
Because Xiao Wang's words really gave him a lot of inspiration.

Indeed, since I don't have the strength to control my feet in the backcourt, why don't I give up the ball to the opponent?Anyway, the backcourt will start a fire in the backyard, so it's better to surround your own backyard with concrete to prevent the opponent from spreading the flames of war to your own goal.

The rest is simple, as long as the opponent's attack does not press into the range of about five meters from the front of the penalty area, the situation will basically stabilize.

After deciding on his train of thought, Cao Chen hurriedly said "Thank you" to Xiao Wang, then hurried back to the bench and grabbed a player on the bench.

This player is called Guo Haoming. He is a defensive midfielder like Li Haohan, but his style is not as fierce and tough as Li Haohan. In addition, because he is only a high school player, he has only been on the bench since he joined the team. Well, after all, Cao Chen only needed a defensive midfielder on the tactical board in the previous games.

But now, Cao Chen needs to correct his thinking. It is time for this midfielder with active defensive coverage to take the lead.

"Hao Ming, how about this, after you go on stage, tell them..."

Then, Cao Chen whispered in Guo Haoming's ear, and Guo Haoming quickly understood Cao Chen's tactical arrangement.

"Coach Cao, don't worry! I will take your instructions to everyone, and I will also perform well. I hope you can give me a chance to come off the bench in the future."

Seeing the young man's high morale, Cao Chen also patted his chest: "You played well in this game, and I will definitely let you play in the next game! And I guarantee that the time will not be less than 20 minutes!"

"20 minutes!!! Thank you Coach Cao, thank you Coach Cao, I will definitely perform well, I will!"

Hearing Cao Chen's promise, this youthful young man burst into laughter immediately. You must know that among the high school players of Nanhu No. [-] High School Team, except Gao Yi, Zhang Ziyang, and Bai Xiaolei, the three indispensable core players Besides, no one else has a record of appearances.If he can compete in the official competition, it is at least a kind of capital to pick up girls in school!

Thinking of this, Guo Haoming also silently told himself in his heart: Definitely! ! !Be sure to play well! ! !

"Remember, convey what I just told you to everyone on the field!"

Before Guo Haoming came on stage, Cao Chen still worried about reminding him one more time.

The young man fought for the chance to play in the next game, how could he forget such a trivial matter, the young man patted Cao Chen on the chest and said, "Don't worry, Coach Cao, if I can't do it, just fire me! "

"Good job!" Cao Chen couldn't help but gave Guo Haoming a thumbs up, and then added: "If you don't convey the tactics to everyone's ears, then don't come to the training session on Monday."

"Uh……"

At this time, Guo Haoming held his forehead and smiled wryly - what he promised, he had to do it even if he cried... Who made himself "cross the ocean" like this?
