Chapter 331 It's up to you (4K+ update, please support)
In the final round of the regular season of the Sao Paulo State Championship this season, DB played against Corinthians at home.
The DB team, which set off a youth storm in Brazilian football, was very eager to win the honor of being the first in the regular season group, and launched a fierce attack on the visiting team.
Throughout the first half, the initiative seemed to be firmly controlled by DB.Relying on their mature team system and outstanding personal ability, they control the ball at their own feet and frequently attack the opponent's defense line.
Whether it is the ball possession rate, the number of times of entering the 30-meter area of the front court, the number of shots, the number of shots on target, the number of passes, and offside balls, DB is several times ahead of Corinthians.
However, the young DB teenagers encountered a big problem in Corinthians' defense.That is the backbone of the opponent's defense, the god of the sea-Jill.
With his outstanding defensive ability and rich defensive experience, Jill slammed a group of young DB players, and really taught these arrogant little guys how to behave.
Almost every offensive player on the DB team has tried to compete with Jill, but without exception, all of them got nothing.
"This guy is too strong!" This was the consensus of all DB teenagers in the first half.
Unable to attack for a long time, the young DB team was a little anxious, and their emotions fluctuated to a certain extent.Especially in the first half, Alfonso and Jorah, who fought the most against Jill, have been subdued and have no temper at all.
According to the statistics of Periati, the assistant coach and data analyst of the DB team, Alfonso's header success rate in the first half was only a pitiful 43.7%, and the number of successful one-on-one breakthroughs by Jola against Gil was an astonishing 0 times!You know, Jorah has made 7 successful breakthroughs on other Corinthians players in the first half alone!
Alfonso and Jolla are the two most valuable players in the DB team (the value of Chinese players has been seriously underestimated by professional organizations).They were all at a loss, and the others were even more troubled.
How to do?
On the contrary, the Corinthians, led by Jill, gradually stabilized the morale of the army. Relying on their excellent defense, they launched the counterattack of the DB team. In the final stage of the first half of the game, relying on the personal ability of the team's No. 650 Luan Weila with a net worth of [-] million euros, they created several good shooting opportunities.
Such scenes have gradually become the norm for the DB team to compete in the state championship.Their opponents, from the arrogant attack at the beginning of the season, to gradually knowing how powerful they are, they began to play steadily, and now they are acting with their tails tucked up, honestly playing defensive counterattacks.
The constant changes in the opponent's tactics also show the continuous improvement of the strength and reputation of the DB team.
Spider-Man said: With great power comes great responsibility.And for DB, the bigger the fame, the harder it is to play.
It is in this kind of gradual tempering that the abilities, experience and willpower of the DB teenagers are honed and strengthened.
However, today's Corinthian "bone" whose main material is "Gill" is extremely difficult to chew. If you are not careful, your teeth may collapse.
Finally, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.
The impetuous DB teenagers who seemed to have the upper hand in the scene, and the Corinthians players who were attacked violently but did not concede a goal, both heaved a sigh of relief. Both sides hurried to the locker room. Everyone was tired from playing and urgently needed rest and the guidance of the coach.
In the home team locker room, the atmosphere was a little downcast.
The main players were all slumped on their seats, wiping sweat, drinking water, and thinking about their own concerns, but no one spoke.
How was the performance in the first half?Is it bad?Certainly not bad!
They pressed the veteran powerhouse Corinthians and stormed.Except for a few counterattacks by the opponent in the final stage of the first half, the rest of the time firmly controlled the situation on the field.
But is it good?Certainly not good either!
Because almost every player who played against Gill lost, everyone has never seen such a strong defense.
Everyone realizes that defeating Jill is the key to victory, but no one knows how to defeat him.
They are like a group of confused children who need guides to guide them.
But the person who should be pointing the way to them at this moment is not in a hurry to see the light of day.
Gao Yuan leaned back on the seat leisurely, looking at his players playfully.
Silence, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes...
The upright Han Peng hesitated to speak a few times, but he refrained from speaking.
Another upright old Baal couldn't help it, and complained dissatisfiedly:
"Gao, you can't help it! Is this problem that difficult? Compared with the many problems you have solved before, Jill is not a big trouble!"
Gao Yuan put his finger to his lips and made a silent gesture.
Old Baal looked puzzled, but his trust in Gao Yuan all the time made him swallow the words that came to his lips.
It was silent for 10 minutes.
Periati answered the phone, ran over, and whispered something in Gao Yuan's ear.
Gao Yuan nodded, then stood up and began to perform his duties as a head coach.
"Just received the news that Sao Paulo's game is over. They beat Ponte Preta 4-0 at home."
As soon as Gao Yuan said this, the locker room seemed to have plunged into freezing point, and the atmosphere became a little more silent.
"Do you know what this means?" Gao Yuan asked.
The atmosphere among the players was not high, and only a few people whispered "yes", but from the eyes of other players, it could be seen that they all understood what it meant.
"This means that we can only win the first place in Group B if we win!"
Gao Yuan asked himself and answered.
Gao Yuan raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, "There are about 4 minutes left, hurry up and tell me, how can I kill Jill and win the game?"
There was silence again.
"Hurry up, we don't have time! Tell me if you have any good ideas!" Gao Yuan urged.
"..."
Seeing that no one spoke, Gao Yuan was a little disappointed.
In fact, he has already prepared the strategy of defeating the enemy, but he doesn't want to arrange everything by himself.He doesn't want these players of his to become a bunch of robots who only know how to execute and can't think for themselves.
It is impossible for me to be their nannies for the rest of my life. After this season, most of them will step onto a wider stage, where they will not have the support of their own system, and their coaches may not be able to provide them with reasonable advice. Therefore, they must learn to think for themselves, learn to read and understand the game by themselves, discover and solve problems by themselves.
But it seems that these children are suffering from high-distance dependence. Since the problem has been solved by the coach for them, they are too lazy to think deeply, and their heads are a little rusty.
No way, you have to inspire them.
"Coach, we will fight, I will definitely pass Jill!" Jorah squeezed out.
"Boss let me play, I'm not afraid of Jill, I'll fight with him!" Sitting on the bench, the hot-blooded and impulsive He Xiaoke was eager to try.
Gao Yuan glared at the two of them, and scolded: "Idiot, just based on what you two said without thinking, I am stupid to let you two play the second half!"
Gao Yuan looked at the other substitutes and asked, "Which one of you came up with a good idea and will play in the second half."
Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, and Qiu Feng muttered: "I don't understand why we must fight with Jill."
Gao Yuan's eyes lit up, and he was about to inquire deeply.
He Xiaoke first yelled dissatisfied: "What do you mean? Cowardly?! If you don't fight him, can't you avoid him and kick him!"
He Xiaoke has an extroverted personality and became famous at a young age. He is proud and arrogant. When encountering problems, he refuses to accept softness and likes to confront tough ones. Otherwise, he would not have organized his teammates to send a video of "refusing to be recruited by the national name".
Qiu Feng was completely different. Before meeting Gao Yuan, he was never a star player, not even the main force of the echelon team. If he hadn't relied on his superb free kick skills, he might have been eliminated long ago.Therefore, his personality is also low-key and introverted, and sometimes he is not confident enough.
The different experiences and personalities of the two people determine their different ways of thinking and dealing with problems.
Sure enough, after being yelled at by He Xiaoke, Qiu Feng stopped talking as if he was justified.
"Qiu Feng, tell me. There's no time, hurry up!" Gao Yuan urged.
Qiu Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Since we can't play Jill now, why don't we play around him? No matter how good Jill is, he is only one person, and it is impossible to cover the entire defense line. We can use the pass to bypass him, so it will get twice the result with half the effort! We can even attack another central defender. According to my observation, his ability is not strong, so Jill will be the main defense and let him assist in the defense."
As soon as Qiu Feng said this, a closed door in front of the teenagers seemed to be pushed open, and suddenly they felt that the will was bright and the light was bright.
Yes, why do I have to compete with Jill?
He Xiaoke also realized that what Qiu Feng said was reasonable, but he still insisted: "We can beat Palmeiras, Santos, and Dudu. A popular international player like Lucas Lima, why should we be afraid of an old Jill! The boss often said that we will go to a bigger stage in the future. Could it be that we will run away when we encounter stronger opponents in the future?"
Gao Yuan's words are tantamount to the Bible in this young team.When He Xiaoke mentioned him, it seemed that he had cast a layer of unquestionable authority on his fallacies.
However, Gao Yuan himself was on the spot.
Gao Yuan couldn't help being angry and funny, and a sentence suddenly popped up in his heart, "No matter how good a scripture is, I'm afraid it will be read wrong"!This is how the cults that co-authored those distorted teachings emerged!
Gao Yuan went up and gave the righteous He Xiaoke a shudder, cursing:
"Stop talking nonsense here! I mean you are going to a bigger stage and challenge stronger opponents, but when did you say that you are going to fight hard! You have to outsmart, understand?!"
Gao Yuan then said to the other players: "What is the essence of playing football? It's not bleeding and sweating, it's not fighting hard, and it's not going to die together. It's about kicking the football into the goal! No matter what method you use, if you kick the ball into the goal, you will win! On the court, there will always be opponents who are faster, better skilled, and stronger than you. What you have to do is not to defeat everyone on the opponent, but to find a way to send the ball into the opponent's goal, and you will win! Understand?"
All the DB boys, including He Xiaoke who was rubbing his forehead, were lost in thought.
"boom blah blah"
At this time, the fourth official of the referee group knocked on the door of the locker room, urging the players of the home team to come out quickly.
Only then did Gao Yuan make tactical adjustments, but there was only one sentence before and after.
"Qiu Feng, come on, replace Jorah, how to play, you can decide for yourself on the field!"
When the players walk out of the locker room and onto the court.
The coaching staff gathered around Gao Yuan worriedly.
"We didn't deploy tactics for 15 minutes?"
"Let these boys figure it out for themselves, will they not have a unified mind and make trouble?"
"This is a game that must be won. Wouldn't it be too much fun to arrange it this way?"
Gao Yuan waved his hand to stop the coaching staff from asking questions.
"They are not young anymore, it's time to take responsibility for themselves! We can't be nannies for the rest of our lives. Compared with the false name of being the first in the regular season group, if they can learn to think and learn to adjust, they will be more proud!"
Gao Yuan pointed out the strategic direction for his players, and then made a reasonable staffing arrangement, and the rest is up to the players themselves.
Just like the famous NBA coach Mayfair Jackson, he can become the coach with the most championships, relying on the triangle offense tactically, and relying on the super self-adjustment and error-correction ability of the stars in the method.In the games he coaches, we often see such scenes. When the game is suspended, he sits on the coach’s bench without saying a word. The players discuss tactics and game gains and losses. His immobile demeanor earned him the nickname "Zen Master".
And it is this style and manner that he can make superstars like Jordan and Kobe even greater.
Gao Yuan knows that his players have unlimited potential, and their physical fitness and skills can be improved through training, but what determines their upper limit is their ability to read and understand the game, which is the so-called "ball quotient". Whether they can inspire better players is an art.
Before the start of the second half of the game, DB made personnel adjustments, replacing Qiao La with Qiu Feng, and the field was restored to 5 Chinese teenagers.
This substitution was somewhat unexpected. Jorah's net worth is the second highest in the DB team, as high as 1600 million euros. If it weren't for the past injury history, this net worth would definitely be higher.
But Qiu Feng is not the most brilliant among Chinese teenagers. Although he has an amazing free kick skill, which DB teenagers don't have their own unique skills?Coupled with his low-key and introverted personality, he is often overlooked as "little transparent".
Jola is one of the best offensive masters in the DB team, even he can't do anything to Jill, what if Qiu Feng, who is not good at breaking through and running fast, comes on the field?
Just when people were very confused about the adjustment of DB, Corinthians also made personnel adjustments.
The veteran forward Wagner Lowe replaced the midfielder Guilherme. Their intention is very clear, which is to strengthen the offense.
The second half of the needle point against the wheat awn is about to begin.
