Football: I carry forward Shaolin Kungfu

Candreva sat on the bench and saw the opponent make three consecutive substitutions.

He slapped his thigh and excitedly said to the surrounding substitute teammates:

"What I said in the first half, I was right!"

"It doesn't matter if Cagliari is equalized, it's time to hide and defend, and you have to defend."

"But once they fall behind, they still have to attack!"

The third goalkeeper Bernie nodded.

"It's like this. If you lose one, you lose, and if you lose two, you lose. They are replaced by tall young guys. The game is over in ten minutes. They are going to smash our headers like crazy."

Candreva calmly wiped his sweat with a towel, took a sip of water, and put his legs on the chair.

"Smash him, the height of our three central defenders is about 1.9 meters. If he hits it, I'll see if they can hit it!"

Candreva was right.

Inter Milan played a three-back formation.

The three central defenders, Bastoni, De Vry, and Shik, lined up.

These three strong men are 190cm, 189cm, and 187cm in height respectively.

In Serie A, they are all high-altitude central defenders!

Air defense, without any problems.

In fact, Inter Milan was also the team that had the fewest headers scored by opponents last season.

This is precisely due to the strong air supremacy of the three central defenders.

However, Conte still kept a hand.

He immediately replaced the midfielder on the Inter Milan bench, Gagliardini.

This midfielder does not usually play many games in the team.

Rough technique, rigid movement, poor shooting, he is a solid substitute player.

But Gagliardini has an advantage, tall!

As a midfielder, he is 188cm tall, taller than many central defenders.

Moreover, he is physically strong, has plenty of energy, and is not afraid of injury. He belongs to the kind of player who can stir up things.

Commonly known as the midfield stirrer!

Conte replaced Gagliardini at this time.

One is to replace the wingback Asamoah, who is not physically strong enough, to maintain the running intensity of the game;

The second is to increase the altitude of the team's midfield to counter Cagliari's high-altitude bombing!

"Director Xu, the two sides have changed four people in a short period of time. What do you think of the two teams' substitutions?"

"Obviously, Cagliari is going to be simple and rude, playing the British style of long pass and lobbing, and hit the header!"

"However, Conte's response was very quick. Look at Gagliardini's body, hey, he is tall and strong."

Xu Yang's eyes swept over the Inter Milan players on the field, "In addition to Vecino who stayed on the field with a height of 187cm, Inter Milan's midfield players with an altitude of about 1.9 meters, except for the goalkeeper, there are five full players. personal!"

"Oh?" Duan Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized, "Really, it seems that Inter Milan, as a wealthy team, has a good reserve of players. There are not only technical midfielders, but also meat grinder-like butchers!"

Duan Xuan uses Gagliardini as a meat grinder butcher, and this metaphor is very accurate.

After he came on the field, he messed up in the midfield!

In the 78th minute of the game, Na England retreated to receive the ball.

After Chigarini, the core playmaker in Cagliari's midfield, was replaced.

The Belgian volunteered to retreat and took on the heavy responsibility of the midfield engine.

"Several big forwards, hurry to the penalty area..."

Before Naenglan could finish his sentence, a long leg stabbed the ball away from behind!

"what!"

With a scream, he jumped forward and fell like a dog eating shit.

Covering his calf, he yelled, "Foul!"

The referee awarded a foul.

Nainggolan struggled to sit up and looked at the serious Gagliardini behind him.

"Referee!" Nainggolan jumped up and pointed at Garyardini, "He kicked my calf, this is not a foul, are you blind!"

The referee glared at him.

Point to the Belgian's face.

"The defensive player stabbed the ball first, his joint action, and then touched your calf, so it is not a foul!"

"I'm standing right next to it, and I can see it clearly!"

Nainggolan was also given a yellow card.

"Be careful what you say, this is the first warning!"

Nainggolan was so angry that his teeth were itchy, but he didn't dare to refute the referee.

Already carrying a yellow card, he doesn't want to continue to entangle with the referee, lest he be sent off with a red card!

Had to find Gagliardini behind him to bar.

"Young man," Na England in 1987 said viciously to the pressure of Jardini in 1994, "be careful with your movements, if you do this again, I will pay you back!"

Gagliardini ignored him.

He already has long legs, so he is good at this kind of job of stretching his feet behind him to intercept the ball.

"I didn't foul, what are you yelling about? I came up to do this job, if you want to be tough, I welcome you anytime."

According to Conte's tactical arrangement, Gagliardi came up and did exactly this job.

You don't want to attack, and you don't want to organize.

Just give me peace of mind to defend, and stir up trouble for me in the midfield!

"Damn it, I'm not messing with you!" Naenglan covered his aching calf and grinned.

Although the scene is still under the control of Inter Milan.

But Cagliari seized every opportunity and launched a counterattack against Inter Milan.

As soon as they get the ball, let the four tall centers rush into Inter Milan's penalty area!

Boom!

Na England made a long pass!

The ball crossed a high arc and flew towards the back of Inter Milan's penalty area.

"mine!"

Bastoni leaps high and competes for a header.

Cagliari center Mendy, who just came on the field, made a small move when he saw that he could not compete with Bastoni.

Mendy also jumped up, but he deliberately raised his elbows high!

An elbow on Bastoni's jaw!

"Depend on!"

Bastoni barely got the ball, but didn't go far, crouched down and covered his chin.

However, due to the angle problem, the referee did not see clearly, so he did not stop the game.

"mine!"

Seeing that Bastoni was elbowed and the ball didn't go far, Devlai hurried to fight for the second point.

"Get out of the way!"

Devery has rich experience. He raised his elbows in advance, which made the opponents around him who were fighting for the top feel intimidated.

Successful rescue!

Na England crouched at the front, waiting to receive the ball.

He was going to shoot a shot directly, whether he could score or not, it was up to him, after all, he didn't shoot in the second half.

call!

A blue and black figure rushed forward!

It's Ye Chen!

He nimbly took the first step and got the ball.

"Oops, we can't let them fight back!"

The experienced Na Englander knows that once the ball is conceded in the midfielder and he is counterattacked, it is a fatal mistake.

He chased back at the first time, and before Ye Chen hit the ball, a slanted tackle came!

Ye Chen was intercepted!

"Dare to block my ball, court death!" Nainggolan cursed and dribbled the ball forward.

But how can the midfielder get his way?

Gagliardini saw Ye Chen being shoveled and overturned, so he immediately accelerated, and was more than one meter away from Nainggolan. He put his big body down, lay down on the ground, and returned a flying shovel!

Naenglan is 175 tall and Gagliardini is 188. Their bodies are not at the same level.

Na England only felt a gust of wind hit, and was knocked into the air!

The referee still didn't say anything, and signaled the game to continue!

There is no problem with Na England's tackle, and Gagliardini's tackle is also no problem, they all tackled the ball first!

The ball that Gagliardini tackled returned to Ye Chen's feet.

Ye Chen ignored the pain and counterattacked with the ball.

"Counterattack! Counterattack!"

Behind him, Gagliardini, who had just shoveled, jumped up from the ground like a spring!

Like a white whirlwind, whistling and keeping pace with Ye Chen!
