Beast King Costa

Chapter 364 Crazy Counterattack
"2 to 0, now we must find a way to stop the decline in the midfield!"

Wearing the captain's armband that originally belonged to Pettit in this game, Nuno Gomez naturally had to shoulder the responsibility of the captain.

I saw Nuno Gomez with a sad face and said: "Pettit has too much influence on our team's midfield control. Without Petit, the midfield is completely different. Carter Solanis and Cali Yaka's midfield configuration is completely incapable of competing with Sevilla, the champion of the Europa League. With our current midfield configuration, if we go to play against Alkmaar, who can laugh? In the end, it’s really hard to say.”

"I can only retreat more midfielders to help get the ball..."

Diego also shook his head helplessly and said, "It's just that Renato is too slippery, just like a loach! There is no way to form an effective siege against him. Moreover, we have no There is no point in suppressing the impact of David Casteldo and Daniel Alves on both sides. As long as Renato can pass the ball to the feet of the two full-backs, that can also pose a threat to our penalty area .”

Ok……

Diego almost didn't pick it out directly and said: Daniel Alves, a world-class full-back, is a more terrifying threat to us than Renato!If Daniel Alves continues to make such easy crosses, he will lose the third or even the fourth goal in the first half of the game!

"Yeah!" Nuno Gomez nodded with difficulty and said, "Sevilla's full-backs have an assist ability, which is really beyond what coach Santos expected. Unexpectedly, Juand Coach Ramos' tactical design can be so bold, directly allowing the two full-backs to put in such a large amount of assists, basically even giving up the backcourt side defense."

"Backcourt wing defense!!!"

What did Diego think of, and Diego told Nuno Gomez decisively: "I know what to do! Boss Nuno, later, you will go to the two sides of Seville more Use the space left to run! Make more use of the full-backs to insert the space left behind to create threats!"

"Oh???"

Before Nuno Gomez finished speaking, Diego resolutely added: "Especially make more use of the space behind Daniel Alves! We must find a way to force Daniel Alves back! Can't let Daniel Alves is so aggressive!"

"Diego, do you have the confidence to play the ball wide?"

"I have confidence!"

Diego nodded firmly and said: "I will further strengthen Renato's oppression! I will never let Renato play in the midfield so easily! Boss Nuno, you just pull the plug Villa’s two central defenders just go to the left, if I can steal the ball from Renato’s feet, I will go in your direction immediately, and then quickly go forward to the center to cooperate with you.”

"Row!!!"

Nuno Gomez has no better way to stop the current team's decline at the moment, so!He could only choose to believe Diego's suggestion.

After all, after Diego came to Benfica, he has brought special surprises to the team more than once or twice, perhaps!In this fierce battle that has fallen into decline, can Diego still become the X factor for Benfica to reverse the decline?so!Nuno Gomez firmly chose to trust Diego.

……

"Beep..."

In the 29th minute of the game, the game kicked off for the third time in the middle circle!
The score has come to 2 to 0. The strong dominance of the home team Sevilla has made Benfica, who is a guest, still have no way to resist.

After the game continued, Benfica tried a fierce counterattack.

In this game, Carter Solanis, who was alone in the midfield, launched a long pass in the midfield and went directly to Diego in the frontcourt.

However, Sevilla's defensive tactics seem to have long identified Diego as Benfica's offensive strength. They even let go of Nuno Gomez, the main second striker of the Portuguese national team. Escuder, Javi Navarro, and Enzo Maresca, three defensive players, did not wait for Diego to jump high to catch the ball, and they directly surrounded Diego heavily, forming a corner , not giving Diego any space to hold the ball.

Although Diego was surrounded by Sevilla, he still tried to jump high to compete for the first penalty kick from Carter Solanis' long pass.

However, Sevilla's defensive double-teaming is very layered. Julien Escuder holds Diego's center of gravity behind Diego, and Enzo Maresca, who is well versed in Italian chain defense, is in front of him. The midfielder competes with Diego for the first penalty kick in front of him, while Harvey Navarro is aiming for the second penalty kick on the other side, not giving Diego or Nuno Gomez any chance to get the ball.

Sevilla's defensive system under the guidance of Juande Ramos is very mature. Although they are facing a super big center like Diego with the physique of a beast, they can still rely on cooperative defense , making the threat Diego brought in the frontcourt invisible.

Harvey Navarro was also very cautious. He didn't get the ball in the backcourt. After grabbing the second penalty kick, he decisively kicked the ball away and cleared the ball far away. No Gomez.

"call……"

Diego was also quite helpless about this. Seeing the ball quickly leave the frontcourt, Diego shook his head and complained: "It's too difficult! This is too difficult!"

However, no matter how difficult it is, you have to find a way!
Otherwise, if Sevilla is allowed to dominate the team, this game will definitely be bloodbathed by Sevilla. For Diego, being bloodbathed by Sevilla may not be the most difficult thing. What I'm afraid of is seeing Luis Fabiano, a direct competitor for the Europa League top scorer list, continue to score goals in this game!
Mission! ! !

That broken mission of the Real ball king system! ! !

This is the most difficult thing! ! !

When the frontcourt failed to hold the ball smoothly, Diego was not discouraged at all. He decisively retreated to the midfield and backcourt, and continued to aim at Renato, the core organization point of the Sevilla midfielder.

As long as Nuno Gomez can force Daniel Alves to not push forward as much as he did in the opening stage, and he can completely suppress Renato, the midfield organization point, then!Sevilla's frontcourt of Frederic Kanoute and Luis Fabiano will be isolated.

At least!

Theoretically speaking, by suppressing the two most threatening organization points of Seville, Renato and Daniel Alves, Seville's offensive threat will be sharply reduced-as for Juand La Moss still hides some offensive changes that have not been brought out yet, and this is something that cannot be predicted.

In the 33rd minute of the game, Diego used his actions to prove that his judgment on the court was still very correct!

Using a more intense body to fight against oppression, Diego is grabbing Renato with a strong bar.

Although Renato is very flexible, he was able to dodge in a small range to avoid Diego's physical resistance, but after the score became 2-0, Diego's physical resistance to Renato at this point The oppression has become more targeted, and it's not something that Renato can avoid by moving around.

Under Diego's tireless entanglement, he finally broke the ball at Renato's feet!

Midfield counterattack!

After stealing the ball, Diego didn't think about holding the ball forward at all, but glanced at Nuno Gomez on the left side of the frontcourt, and decisively sent the ball in the direction of Nuno Gomez.

According to what Diego said, Nuno Gomez drilled very decisively into the space behind Daniel Alves. Now, after Nuno Gomez received the ball in the frontcourt, Daniel Alves finally If you are not calm, those who start to scatter will chase back in the backcourt.

At the same time, after taking the ball, Diego sprinted forward frantically.

"Boss Nuno! This way!!!"

Nuno Gomez took aim before Daniel Alves slashed into the backcourt to form a three-on-one defense with Julien Escuder and Javi Navarro to encircle Nuno Gomez. It was Diego who was sprinting in the middle.

At this moment, although Enzo Maresca was chasing behind Diego, compared to Diego's explosive power, it was impossible for Enzo Maresca to catch up with Diego.

Nuno Gomez decisively poured the ball out from the side to Diego in the middle, and gave enough lead for Diego to sprint!

Since the two central defenders of Sevilla, Julien Escuder and Xavi Navarro, were attracted by Nuno Gomez on the wing, Nuno Gomez and Diego's ingenious The side-to-side cooperation unexpectedly formed a fatal single-handed ball opportunity!
Here comes the chance to score!

How could Diego miss it!

Whether it's for the team to recover a goal, or for himself to add another goal to the Europa League scorer list, Diego can't miss this one-shot opportunity!
The ball arrives!

Diego calmly shot in the Sevilla penalty area!

1 is better than 2!

In the 34th minute of the game, Benfica, who was a guest, recovered a goal with difficulty!You know, this shot is actually the first shot of this game by Benfica, whose offensive firepower can be called the best in the Portuguese Super League this season!But Benfica's offensive efficiency is too high. The first shot of the game turned into a goal!
"Huh...it feels good!"

After scoring the goal, Diego can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Not only did he score his 9th goal in the Europa League this season, temporarily surpassing Luis Fabiano in the scorer list, but more importantly, the score gap was pulled back to one goal. In this way, Benfica The time pressure for the next game will not be too great.

"Beautiful! Diego! So beautiful!!!"

Nuno Gomez, who was also the captain in this game, ran up to Diego excitedly, and hugged Diego tightly from behind: "Perfect one-handed goal! Diego, you kid is simply a goal!" The ball machine! It’s amazing! I’m convinced! Hahahaha!"

Beto, who caught up from the midfield, was also excited: "What a great deal Diego! One person steals, and the other person cooperates with Nuno boss to create single-handed ball opportunities! It's amazing! You are not only the little prince of the nightclub, You are still the little prince who scores goals... No! You are simply the emperor of football! Haha!"

……

Although it was only a goal recovered, Diego's goal was as important as the nectar for all members of Benfica.

This goal!But it means that Sevilla's defense can be completely defeated!

With Diego's first scoring goal, then continue to copy the way Diego scored just now, and Benfica has every chance to tie the score before the end of the first half!
Although he was excited to celebrate the goal, Diego did not get dizzy because of this goal. He seized the time and said to his teammates: "The two threats of Sevilla are Renato and Daniel Al. Weiss! As long as we can contain Renato's ball and find a way to prevent Daniel Alves from going forward and making a pass, we have a good chance of recovering in this game!"

Of course, Diego did not forget to add what he was worried about: "Now I am afraid that after we contain Renato and Daniel Alves, Sevilla's two very threatening shooting points, Frederic Canoute and Luis Fabiano retreated into the midfield to participate in the ball-taking organization, which would be more difficult."

"Now we can't think about these things anymore!"

As the captain of this game, Nuno Gomez's attitude is very firm: "Play according to Diego's way, that's right! At least, Diego has created a scoring opportunity just now! Then we will continue to follow the Diego's way to finish the first half!"

"no problem!!!"

After the tactical thinking of the Benfica team was unified by Diego, the players pulled out of the joy of scoring and continued to focus on the court.

After all, the score is 1 to 2 at this moment. Although the score gap has been pulled back by one goal, the score is still behind. Benfica still needs all members to be cautious about this hard battle!

After the Sevilla players and the Benfica players took their positions in their own half, the referee blew the fourth long whistle of the game.

"Beep..."

The game continues!

After 1 to 2, Benfica's counterattack became even crazier!

There is no need for Diego to retreat to the midfield to do targeted physical confrontation and oppression against Renato. Kaliaka and Carter Solanis are besieging Renato fiercely, even those who have the ball The opportunity is not given to Renato. This kind of continuous oppression allows Enzo Maresca to take more balls in the midfield. In order to assist Enzo Maresca, Duda and Jesuli, The two of them can only move closer to the middle of the midfield.

Nuno Gomez simply did not go to the middle.

Pull aside decisively!

Just cruising on the side where Daniel Alves is sitting, this forced Juande Ramos on the sidelines to signal Daniel Alves to retreat, preventing Daniel Alves, the "Brazilian Magic" "Wing" moves forward into the frontcourt to participate in offensive organization.

Sevilla's midfield holding point was forced to become Enzo Maresca, a defensive midfielder, and Daniel Alves, another important offensive organizer on the wingMore Marking Nuno Gomez in the backcourt, Sevilla's previous crazy offensive immediately came to a halt.

However, there was not much time left in the first half of the game, and Juande Ramos did not ask his players to press the attack.

Juande Ramos is more about making Duda and Jesuli two full-backs, and more assisting midfielder Enzo Maresca to control the ball, control the rhythm, and let this 2 as much as possible. The score of 1 was maintained until the end of the first half.

On Benfica's side, Fernando Santos on the sidelines was also not in a hurry. After the score was recovered to 1 to 2, Fernando Santos finally felt much more at ease.

I saw Fernando Santos shouting to the players on the field: "Let's not worry! There is no need to consume excessive physical energy to make ineffective presses. Anyway, we can fight them in the second half of the game!"

finally!
The first half ended 2-1!

Sevilla, who sit at home, returned to the locker room with a one-goal lead!
Who will win the game in the end?

We have to watch the second half of the game!
