Chapter 549 Things Are Not That Simple

As soon as the game started, the Salzburg Red Bulls were very aggressive, and their intention to grab the start was very obvious.

Their 4-3-3 formation is like a trident, slamming into the center of Maritimo's defense.

Maritimo played steadily at home, just like his own 4-5-1 formation, calm and heavy.The strict defense system is like a solid steel shield withstood the edge of the trident.

Before the game, Gao Yuan made sufficient arrangements and edited the game video of each opponent for the players. The players knew the opponent's playing habits and characteristics very well.

10 minutes before the start, the Salzburg Red Bull was very busy, but the actual effect was not good.

In the face of Maritimo's tight defense, it was difficult for the Hungarian playmaker Soboszroy to find a space to pass the ball. The various through balls he was best at were either cut off halfway, or passed too deep, and his teammates couldn't get the ball.

The striker hit Dhaka hard, and under the "care" of Wen Jun and Kusai in turn, he couldn't even touch the ball a few times.

The characteristics of the two wingers Sekou Koita and Huang Xican were also restricted, because Maritimo's formation contracted, and the characteristics of the two who were good at breakthroughs could not be brought into play.Stepping on the ball, pulling the ball, and smashing the ball, all kinds of tricks are busy. Even if it is hard to pass the two full-backs, Maritimo's defense is very good, and the central defender or midfielder immediately comes to help.The ball was eventually cut off.

Seeing that his team had nothing to achieve except exhausting physical energy, the Salzburg Red Bull coach Mahi made a decisive decision and asked the team to retreat. Let's take a breather.

When one end of the seesaw goes down, the other end will naturally rise.

It was time for Maritimo to attack.

In fact, Maritimo's proud soldiers are somewhat disapproving of coach Gao Yuan's excessive caution.

I was able to draw with the powerful Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, and beat the veteran team Schalke 04 at Viltins. Why is a mere Salzburg Red Bull so careful?Olympic champion?What a big deal!
However, Gao Yuan's army is extremely strict. He said that no one dared to go to the west in the east, and he said that no one dared to throw chickens out of dogs.He wants the team to defend and counterattack, and everyone can only be patient and grind with the opponent for more than ten minutes.

The feeling of these ten minutes is that the other party is nothing more than that.

No matter how strong the impact of Dhaka is, it is almost the same as Jackson Martinez, and far worse than the "Great Saint" Bell.

That's the case with Soboszroy. In terms of passing organization, he has played against "Mr. Golden Ball" Modric, and the mere Hungarian international is simply ignored.

As for Huang Xican, Okukawa Masano and the like, Japanese and Korean players are nothing more!Maybe it's not bad in Asia, but here is the Champions League!They don't flow at all.Besides, when the Chinese players from Maritimo saw the faces from East Asia, they naturally developed a competitive spirit, and there was no need to mobilize them to kick them!
These well-known attacking players are like this, and the others are not worth mentioning!

So after the Salzburg Red Bull offensive weakened, everyone turned their attention to coach Gao Yuan.It’s as if soldiers eager to fight on the battlefield are asking the commander to fight: “Commander, give an order! As soon as you give the order, I will immediately remove the opponent’s head! I wish to issue a military order.”

Gao Yuan was also a little surprised, the other party was nothing more than that, not as strong as their performance showed, and not as mysterious as Yoshikawa Hideto said.

Is it because the other party didn't use all their strength?Or is his team too strong and already terrifying?
Gao Yuan can't get an answer for the time being, but since the opponent's offensive has slowed down and his team is playing at home, there is no reason not to attack.

So he gave the order to fight back.

The deployment before the game is that if the opponent's offensive is suspended, you can counterattack appropriately after getting your permission, but you must pay attention to the rhythm, don't attack too fiercely, and take it slowly...

However, when they arrived on the court, after getting Gao Yuan's approval, the proud players immediately launched a fierce counterattack.

It wasn't that they ignored Gao Yuan's deployment, and it wasn't that they lacked tactical literacy, but that after more than ten minutes of the game, they had their own judgment on the opponent's strength.

At first, Gao Yuan was a little worried when he saw the players swarming up to him.But I felt relieved when I saw that although everyone's position was raised, they maintained a good position and distance from each other, and their thoughts were relatively unified.

Looking at the whole of Europe now, it can be said that there are not many teams that can easily break through Maritimo's defense.

Just to test the defensive ability and counterattack ability of the Salzburg Red Bull.Gao Yuan was a little disappointed with his opponent's ability to attack fortified areas. If he couldn't do these two things well, then the opponent's name was bigger than his reality.

In Austria, at the Aufsberg training base, Yoshikawa Hidehito organized all the first-team players to watch the game in front of the projector.

The players at Aufsberg are chattering.

"Maritimo is careless!"

"Did they think that the champion of the Olympic Super League is only capable of this?"

"Maritimo's tactics at the beginning were correct, but now they attack out, the game will soon enter the rhythm of the Red Bull Salzburg"

"This is the team that tied Real Madrid! But then again, Maritimo also tied Real Madrid, and almost won!"

"What we can't do, maybe Maritimo can do it!"

"Hey, we are also a team in the Olympic Super League, shouldn't we cheer for the Salzburg Red Bull? Why do we always analyze problems from the perspective of the Portuguese team?"

"Who made Salzburg trample us all the time! It's the happiest thing to see them deflated!"

·······
Yoshikawa Hidehito turned a deaf ear to the players' comments. At this moment, his fair face was as cold as ice, and his eyebrows behind the gold-rimmed glasses formed a "Chuan".He watched the game, but he kept complaining in his heart: "Gao Yuanjun, did you take my words as deaf ears? If you think that the opponent only has this strength, you are wrong! If this is the case, how could they step on my team! You have a solid defense, they have nothing to do, but once you attack, you have to be careful..."

An excellent team, like an army capable of fighting well, pays attention to "Fenglin Volcano".

Fast as the wind, slow as the forest, aggressive as fire, immovable as a mountain!
Now Maritimo has switched from offense to defense, which is exactly the fulfillment of the "aggression like fire" in the four-character mantra.

Like a supercar, it only takes a few seconds to accelerate from a standstill to a speed of [-] kilometers per hour.

Maritimo also seems to have completed the infinite transition from defense to offense in an instant.

Short-pass penetration, long-pass transfer, bottoming from the wing, 45 bombing, long-range shots from outside the penalty area, and short-range grabs, like waves after waves, slammed towards the goal of the Salzburg Red Bull.

This kind of three-dimensional attack made the fans fascinated and excited. The 26000 spectators made a huge noise, which provided momentum for the home team's offensive frenzy.

But as the home team attacked again and again, Gao Yuan on the sidelines gradually smelled something different.

His expression also began to gradually become serious.
