World's No.1 Football Manager

Chapter 507 A Respectable Opponent

The reason why Gao Yuan stimulated Yoshikawa Hidetoshi was not to pretend to be aggressive, but to be really anxious.

This is the last warm-up match before the season. During the entire offseason, except for losing one game in the "China Star" commercial competition, they won all the warm-up matches, and they played better and better, winning more and more!

But always winning is not necessarily a good thing. If pride and complacency are bred, sooner or later it will suffer in the main game.

Just like a spring, it will bounce faster and farther only when it is pressed properly.

Gao Yuan was very optimistic about Yoshikawa Hidetoshi's team. He knew Yoshikawa Hidetoshi's strength and believed in the Bushido spirit in this Japanese.

As long as you play normally, whether you win or not is another matter, but it will definitely cause trouble for your team.

But who would have thought that the opponent was too obsessed with winning or losing, and was only busy targeting the opponent, so he couldn't play his own style of play!

But he couldn't defend against it, and his team scored 3 goals in just halftime!
Gao Yuan was very disappointed. He and your team flew all the way here just to find abuse?

Gao Yuan is very disapproving of the idea of ​​the co-prosperity of Greater East Asian football in the Japanese population, but he is not disgusted with Yoshikawa Hidetoshi, a persistent football player. For the sake of Kawabuchi Saburo, he is willing to help some misguided opponents.

Therefore, after Gao Yuan said those words, it was up to him whether he could comprehend and how much he could comprehend.

Gao Yuan returned to the locker room, and sure enough, he saw his gang of brats chatting lazily.

"What, I thought the opponent who came all the way to make an appointment is so powerful! We beat him to pieces in half the time!"

"We can enter the Europa League at this level. I suddenly have confidence in our future in the Champions League, haha!"

"Maybe it's not the opponent's dish, after all, it's also No.2 in the Austrian Super League. It's because we are too good!"

"We played with their Japanese coach before, and they were quite ambitious at the time. Why are they starting to play utilitarian football now?"

"I guess he was frightened by being beaten by the senior director!"

……

Gao Yuan quietly listened to their bragging for a while, and finally came out and interrupted: "Okay, I see you guys just remember to eat but not fight! Do you really think you are invincible? Tell you, the second half will be very difficult, you better be mentally prepared!"

But the group of arrogant soldiers under him didn't take it seriously, and shouted carelessly one by one:
"Boss, we are not three-year-olds anymore, so don't scare us!"

"That's right, after halftime, how much they weighed, we can figure it out!"

"Boss, you don't think we are doing our best, we are also kicking!"

"If they dare to fight back, we will definitely beat him harder! Give him a long memory!"

"Coach, how many goals will you score in the second half? Guaranteed to complete the task!"

……

Gao Yuan was so angry that he cursed loudly: "I think you guys are really candles, you don't light or light up! You're awesome, right? You still have some energy left behind, right? Then leave them to me after the game, and each practice 20 sets of back and forth runs!"

As soon as this remark came out, the players who were still extremely arrogant just now silenced their voices, and they all behaved like sleeping babies!
"These brats!" Gao Yuan cursed angrily and amusedly.

But I was hoping in my heart: Yoshikawa-kun, give me some strength!Don't let me down again!

I hope that the opponent can beat his team hard. Gao Yuan is a wonderful flower in the coaching world, scorpion shit—poison (only).

Back on the field during the intermission, Gao Yuan found that the opponent had changed 6 players in one go, most of them were offensive players.

Yoshikawa Hideto noticed that Gao Yuan was looking at him, and he also cast his gaze boldly. The two eyes met. Yoshikawa Hideto bowed very standardly, and then moved his gaze to the arena, with persistent and firm eyes.

"Oh, the Japanese!" Gao Yuan sighed with a smile.

After the start of the second half, Maritimo's players quickly discovered that the opponent was completely different from the first half.

They no longer focused on how to limit their offense, but began to focus on me and mentioned the football they were familiar with.

The team brought out by the Japanese coach is of course adhering to the concept of passing and controlling football.

The ball is passed at the feet of the Aufsberg players, horizontally, vertically, diagonally, and back... All kinds of passes make full use of the depth and width of the field, as if their purpose is to pass the ball at their feet, rather than attacking the goal.

However, Hidetoshi Yoshikawa's team is different from traditional Japanese football. While playing the characteristics of pass-and-control football, he also combines the advantages of tall and strong European players.

In the past, in Japanese football, it was rare to open the big foot to the frontcourt, or repeatedly hit the high ball from the side, because Japanese players are generally short in stature, and their football drills should try to maximize their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.But in Aufsberg, after repeated penetration of short passes, the players often suddenly hit a long pass, or try to find a way to pour the ball into the middle, and make a few high-ball passes with long bridges and hard horses.

The sudden change in the opponent's technical and tactical style of play made the Maritimo players very uncomfortable. They did not expect the opponent's style of play to become so thorough, and the pass control was also very well-trained, and it was difficult to grab the ball from their feet.

And the sudden long pass, as well as the combination of side and center from time to time, also caused a lot of threat to Maritimo's goal.

In the 54th minute, Aufsberger passed and received multiple people in the frontcourt, penetrating continuously, and finally hit near the penalty area. Forward Michael Liendel caught the ball and dodged the space. With a low shot, the ball flew out of the baseline against the crossbar.

In the 59th minute, Aufsberger, who had been in the backcourt continuously, suddenly made a long pass from the midfielder M. Schmobock. The forward C. Rimael quickly advanced, unloaded the ball from his chest, and volleyed the ball. Fortunately, Niu Gensheng, who was standing in front of the goal, had quick eyes and quick hands.

In the 63rd minute, Aufsberger passed the ball to the side with a few kicks, and directly crossed from the side, and the forward slightly raised the ball
……

Aufsberg's offensive came up, but Maritimo was not passively beaten.

After the initial surprise, the Maritimo players quickly adjusted their emotions and began to fight against each other.

You come to me on both sides, and do not give in to each other.

Gradually, as the game progressed, the Maritimo players became completely excited. They have played so many warm-up matches recently, but they have never encountered such a unique and strong opponent!
Meeting opponents, meeting a strong enough opponent can stimulate the desire and potential of the players.

On the sidelines, Yoshikawa Hidehito found that the opponent seemed to be stronger than in the first half, with a stronger desire to attack, and played more quickly and resolutely!They seem to have released all their energy this time.

This energy is terrifying and amazing, they come and go like the wind, and the formation does not disperse;
Active running, great coverage;
Passing and receiving shots are meticulous, and under the circumstances of high speed and strong confrontation, every technical movement can still be done to a standard.

This Maritimo is horrible!

Yoshikawa Hidetoshi was secretly startled.

But even so, he didn't plan to change his style of play anymore.

Although his own goal was precarious under the indiscriminate bombardment of the opponent, he was not prepared to take another step back.

He will use his own style of play to fight the opponent to the end, even if he dies, he must leave a dazzling moment.

Finally, in the second half, his team finally broke through the goal guarded by Niu Gensheng, relying on the combination of long and short that he is best at, and suddenly hit behind after continuous penetration!Dive-bombed by No. 10 Michael Liendl to complete the goal.

However, their goals also inspired Maritimo's fighting spirit and ferocity.

Maritimo dropped one but scored two.

Wang Zi made a low shot after consecutive passes, and Joao made a long shot of about 35 meters.

Twice through the opponent's goal.

competition is over.

Maritimo beat Aufsberg 5-1.

However, the spirit of fighting spirit and smooth technical and tactical play displayed by Aufsberg in the second half made the winner Maritimo also have to take off his hat to pay tribute to them.

This is a team with strength and characteristics, and it is a team worthy of respect!
