Chapter 26 Digging a Pit
As the first game of the new season, Stan Tenate has worked hard.

In addition, Crystal Palace is now gaining momentum, and it has been repeatedly studied by Stan Tennert for a long time.

Although the warm-up matches of Crystal Palace were not televised, he still heard a lot of news from familiar media reporters.

For Crystal Palace's defensive counterattack tactics, he made careful preparations.What to pay attention to and who to mark, he has explained clearly to the Burnley players.

For winning the first win of the season at home to Crystal Palace, Stan Tennert is very confident.

Soon, players from the two teams came out and lined up to take pictures.

"Hey, coach, the starting lineup of Crystal Palace today seems to be different from before."

Chen Ran's adjustment was first spotted by Burnley's assistant coach.

"What? Where's the change?"

Stan Tennart is reviewing his tactical arrangements in his mind to see if there are any omissions.Hearing this, I was shocked and asked quickly.

"It's a different person. The Croatian teenager Modric was always the starter. Today, it's our England striker Crouch."

"You mean the tall guy who is over two meters tall?"

"That's right, coach, look, it's the one standing next to the Italian striker Toni."

Following the assistant coach's finger, Stan Tenate found Crouch immediately.

There is no way, one is more than two meters, and the other is more than 1.9 meters. The two poles are stuck together, as conspicuous as possible.

Stan Tennert's heart sank immediately, no, he might have been fooled.

"Coach, Crystal Palace sent two high center forwards. This is probably a high-altitude bombing tactic. But we were all preparing to deal with their defensive counterattacks. What should we do now?"

"Don't panic, maybe this is just a smoke bomb for that Huaguo man, maybe he still wants to fight back."

Stan Tennet forced himself to be calm and comforted his assistant.

However, he didn't believe it himself.

But Stan Tenate has no time to adjust now, the players have already entered the field, and the game is about to start.

Now if the deployment is temporarily changed, the players will definitely be at a loss and become a mess in a short period of time.

At that time, if the Crystal Palace seized the opportunity to attack fiercely, they would lose all games.

So cunning!So treacherous!How shameless!

Stan Tennart scolded Chen Ran in his heart.

This Chinese man has been playing defensive counterattacks in the warm-up match, it must be to confuse himself, making me think that this is Crystal Palace's tactics.

Now that it's the official game, he immediately changes his tactics.

Isn't this digging a hole and waiting for me to jump into it?
This kind of strategy only works the first time, and everyone will be prepared for it in the future.

Why are you so unlucky?

Why am I the first opponent of Crystal Palace?
Is this Lao Tzu doing thunder for others?

Seeing Tony and Crouch standing in the center circle kick-off, and the media reporters who have been tracking and reporting on the Crystal Palace, they also discovered an abnormality at this time.

"What's going on? Why is there another Gao?"

"Yeah, there was only one high center forward, Tony, in the main lineup of Crystal Palace before, why are there two now?"

"Tsk tsk, this is the Huaguo people's change of formation. It's amazing, it's really amazing."

"What do you mean?"

"My intuition tells me that this Huaguo used smoke bombs in the warm-up match before."

"You mean, Crystal Palace will play completely differently today than before?"

"That's right. I guess this is the trick of the Chinese envoy, just to trick today's opponents. Burnley is really unlucky."

"If this is the case, then this Chinese man is quite insidious."

"That's why I say he's a little fox."

"Is it that exaggerated? Is this Chinese man really as powerful as you say?"

"Hmph, if you don't believe me, just wait and see, there will be a result in a while."

With the whistle of the referee, the first round of the new season's English Championship officially began.

The audience present were surprised to find that Crystal Palace, who had been praised by the media before as an invincible counterattack in the British Championship, did not shrink their defense, but played the British 442 formation that everyone is familiar with.

The Burnley players were also a little dumbfounded, which was completely different from what the coach had arranged before the game.

Everyone looked towards the sidelines involuntarily, but they didn't receive any instructions other than seeing Stan Tennert's ashen face.

No way, the Burnley players had to throw away all the tactics they had practiced for a week and began to deal with the fierce attack from Crystal Palace.

Yes, Crystal Palace stormed the Burnley defense from the start.

Chen Ran had made it clear to the players before that the opponent must have lined up according to Crystal Palace's previous defensive and counterattack tactics.

Now seeing the Crystal Palace change, they will definitely have a period of discomfort.

Therefore, Chen Ran asked the players to seize this opportunity to attack fiercely and strive to seal the victory at the beginning.

As soon as the referee's whistle blew, Tony knocked the ball to Crouch, and then he ran towards Burnley's penalty area.

At the same time, Ronaldo on the left and Ribery on the right advanced at the same time.

After receiving the ball, Crouch immediately passed it back to Guardiola, and turned around and rushed towards the Burnley penalty area.

Guardiola didn't stop after receiving the ball, and passed it directly to the left with a big foot.

At this time, Ronaldo has already galloped in place, and with a just-right catch with his left foot, he stabbed the ball one meter away, just passing a defensive player who rushed forward.

"Defend him inside, don't let him enter the penalty area!"

Burnley's captain yelled a warning to another defender who jumped to help.

They have been repeatedly reminded by the coach of the characteristics of Crystal Palace's frontcourt players, especially this guy named Ronaldo, who is the most threatening.

Stan Tennart specifically explained to his players that this Ronaldo is fast, skilled, and capable of passing others, and he especially likes to cut into the penalty area and hit the goal.

When defending against Ronaldo, it is necessary to defend inside and outside.

It has to be said that the tactical execution of Burnley players is still very strong.

They did what the coach told them to do.

However, Stan Tennet never expected that under the temptation of Chen Ran's sports car, Ronaldo succumbed to the tires of the Porsche 911.

It's so special that he didn't enter the penalty area at all, and directly made a pass from the bottom.

At this time, Tony and Crouch in the middle had already rushed to the penalty area one after the other.

It's a pity that Ronaldo's speed is too fast. How can Tony and Crouch catch up?

The current Ronaldo is not very mature in grasping the timing of passing the ball.He didn't expect to have to wait for the two Gao guys, and he passed the ball directly at his own pace.

As soon as Tony and Crouch entered the penalty area, the ball flew over.

Burnley's defender was not a display either. Seeing the two tall guys rushing into the penalty area, they immediately stepped forward to intercept.

Pulling each other, no one could jump up to compete for the top, and could only watch the ball pass over their heads.

"boom!"

There was the sound of a ball being violently hit.

At this time, a small man jumped out from the right, and before the ball landed, he volleyed and shot furiously.

I saw the ball, like a fired shell, rushing directly into the upper right corner of Burnley's goal.

Crystal Palace 1:0 Burnley.
