Super Coach

676 We can’t catch up!

Any coach is very conflicted about the football tactics that stabilize the team. WwW. NgWeNXuE. M

Everyone knows that maintaining the stability of tactics is a necessary condition for the team to achieve results and the basis for the team's success. However, now that tactics are being paid more and more attention and the research on opponents is becoming more and more targeted, football tactics It's like sailing against the current. If you don't keep improving and progressing, your opponents will soon be able to restrain you, especially the wealthy teams, everyone will be watching you.

But if you want to change and adjust tactics, sorry, this will definitely affect the stability of the team, which will have a certain impact on the team's performance, and will affect the results.

The most important thing for an excellent head coach in this regard is to grasp a scale.

As an opponent, you can focus on my weaknesses as much as possible, but I will use my strengths to cover up my weaknesses, and then destroy and defeat you. If the disparity in strength is as big as Real Madrid and Valladolid, I'm sorry, I will use my absolute strength to destroy you, and you won't be able to resist at all.

Real Betis' overall strength has declined a lot after selling many of its stars, but relying on the foundation accumulated over the years, this team is still a team that cannot be underestimated in La Liga, especially with Lopez Pull the pitch.

In view of Real Betis's strong wing attack ability, Yang Cheng asked Arbeloa to replace Marcelo in the starting lineup. This Spanish full-back has been under pressure from Marcelo recently. After starting, he took advantage of a winger failure in the 16th minute. After the ball was cut inside, he stopped the ball in the penalty area and volleyed, opening the scoring for Real Madrid.

Yang Cheng was really surprised, because this attack showed Arbeloa's good and solid basic skills. Although the overall technique seems to be very mediocre, it is effective. From stopping the ball to shooting, it is very stable.

But in the 39th minute, midfielder Cappi made a long pass. Brazilian forward Sobis succeeded in countering offside. With Pepe chasing and interfering all the way, he just took the ball into the penalty area and scored with a low shot. Betis equalized the score.

After that, Real Madrid attacked all the way, and Real Betis counterattacked all the way. The two teams fought in full swing. Finally, in the 74th minute, Real Madrid relied on Ramos's long shot to score again for the team. After 1 The score of :2 remained until the end of the game, and Real Madrid finally brought home a victory from the Lopera Stadium.

Barcelona's away game against Zaragoza, which was played almost at the same time, was also very difficult. Henry opened the scoring, but Oliveira equalized the score in the second half, and then Ronaldinho scored in the 88th minute. Barcelona once again exceeded the score, and in the end Barcelona defeated Zaragoza 2:1 away from home.

But an interesting tidbit happened before the game.

According to Barcelona media reports, Barcelona is facing Zaragoza’s leading striker Diego? Milito was interested, hoping to bring the two brothers together at the Nou Camp, and hyped up the high-level Barcelona executives' optimism about Milito.

Diego? Milito also expressed his yearning for the Camp Nou stadium in an interview with reporters before the game. He said, Playing for Barcelona has been my wish since I was a child. I even don't need a salary just to play at Camp Nou. ball!

And his brother Gabriel? Milito also said, what if Diego could be signed? Milito, Barcelona's offensive ability will become more powerful. He is the kind of striker who can create threats and score goals anytime and anywhere!

This round of hype has made Diego? Milito's performance in this game was very average. After the game, Zaragoza gave him a warning, thinking that he was distracted by the media's hype, and some of his comments were not respectful enough to the club. Diego? Milito apologized for this, and Barcelona never mentioned the introduction of the Argentine striker.

Yang Cheng didn't have much time to pay attention to these things, because he went to challenge Lyon away from home in midweek.

In the world of football, there are two types of players that a head coach likes the most. One is a very smart player, and the other is a genius player. Both of these players are the kind of players who, when used properly, can Players who make a huge difference in games.

Diego, who has been very popular with Barcelona recently? Milito is one of those very smart players, a bit like Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Many people wonder why Ruud van Nistelrooy is so efficient in scoring goals?

The reason is very simple. Before he catches the ball, he already has a very clear judgment in his mind as to which area of ​​the goal he will send the ball to after catching the ball. And his almost instinctive reaction is that when the ball comes, he He will judge which way he wants to send the ball into the area he wants, so his efficiency is very high.

Maybe some people are wondering, why don't you wait until the ball comes to think about it?

The reason is very simple. As soon as the ball reaches your feet, you have no time to hesitate to think about it, because the opponent's defender will appear in front of you to stop you immediately. If you cannot grasp the moment of catching the ball, the first The time shot was easily blocked.

Diego? Milito is also very smart in football, but unlike Van Nistelrooy, he is more adaptable to modern football tactics. He is not a killer in the penalty area like Van Nistelrooy. He is more like a forward fox. He will be there anytime and anywhere. Looking for opportunities on the front line, he can not only score, but also make plays for his teammates.

Van Nistelrooy's cleverness lies in the fact that he can create a threat as soon as the ball comes to his feet. Therefore, if the head coach has this type of striker, his tactics must first consider how to send the ball to his feet. Manchester United did this in the previous life. Very good, Yang Cheng's Inter Milan is also very good today.

Diego? Milito's cleverness lies in his ability to become a striker who is stable in front of the line at any time, but also moves quickly, and can get the ball everywhere, which has a great tactical effect on any team.

These two players have a lot in common. For example, they both have very solid basic skills. They can repeat the same action almost ten times without making mistakes. In addition, they both have excellent stopping skills.

Stopping the ball is a yardstick for how high a player can achieve.

Usually the second type of talented player that the head coach likes, but this kind of genius is not the type of Pele or Maradona, nor is it the kind rumored by the outside media, similar to Robinho and Quare. Small's type, because although their style of play is gorgeous, it is a bit flashy and difficult to adapt to modern football. On the contrary, Benzema is the kind of modern talented player who can attract those discerning managers at once. .

The ability to hold the ball is very good. This is the impression that everyone who sees Benzema play will have. He and Villa are different in type. If Villa is agile and plays guerrilla, then Benzema He is that kind of strong propulsion type. He has very strong running and ball-protecting abilities. His excellent ball-protecting and ball-holding abilities can ensure that he can hold the ball steadily in the 32-meter area with the most intensive defense. , and then push the opponent's defense back into the penalty area.

I can get the ball within 32 meters. If your defense does not retract into the penalty area to create depth, I will be behind you when I pass the ball. How to defend?

If Benzema only has this ability, then he is only an average genius at best. His real talent is that his mind is always very clear and calm. He knows what he wants to do at any time and at any time. He is as if he was born He is very aware of his surroundings, as if he were watching a video.

Why do all defenders find Ronaldo difficult to defend?

Because people who defend Ronaldo usually find that in a certain situation, you think he will do this, but when he does it, you find that he is completely different from what you thought. This is because he is aware of the surrounding people. The environment is very understanding.

Benzema also does this very well, and whether he takes the ball and turns to hit the goal, or he can do it very well with his pace and rhythm. The entire technical movements are very standardized, and his left and right feet are very balanced. These are what make him become The talent of a top striker.

It's just talent. Whether he can become a top forward depends on his future opportunities and growth.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you can’t become a top player because you have poor ball skills, or that your talent is not outstanding enough. There are no absolutes in this world. Just like last winter, the Argentine agent recommended River Plate’s young player Higuain to Real Madrid. .

Yang Cheng gave Hidalgo a suggestion at that time. He believed that Higuain was not suitable for his current tactical requirements. He thought that Higuain's ball-holding ability was very poor. However, as a good friend, Yang Cheng also gave Hidalgo advice, thinking that he should Advise Higuain to give up his pursuit of the ball and instead develop without the ball.

In fact, when Higuain joined Real Madrid in Yang Cheng's previous life, his skills with the ball were also very poor. He was once criticized by Real Madrid fans as evidence of Mijatovic's black money. However, Higuain later transformed and developed without the ball. , after observing players such as Raul and Ruud van Nistelrooy, he turned to development without the ball, which led to his later success.

However, Real Madrid's current tactics are not in line with Higuain's future development characteristics, so Yang Cheng rejected Hidalgo's proposal.

It's not because he is biased against Higuain. On the contrary, this is just a technical and tactical choice, because if you want to change the team's overall tactics for Higuain, it will be more than worth the gain, isn't it?

After all, this set of tactics has been used for almost two years, and has been improved so much. It is not cost-effective to keep improving!

If Higuain is a semi-finished product, only 50% completed, and Diego? Milito is a finished product. If he is a late bloomer and has been completely formed in all aspects, then Benzema is now a near-finished product, 75% completed and just short of the last step. Therefore, whether he is in Ligue 1 or in European competitions The performance is obvious to all.

At least in this game against Real Madrid, Benzema scored again, but in the end he could not prevent the team from losing 1:2 at his home court. Yang Cheng's Real Madrid once again had the last laugh.

Every time he sees Benzema score, Yang Cheng will marvel at the player's calmness in the penalty area. It's a bit like Aguero. It is the calmness of a natural killer. With such a calmness, his shooting skills are incredible. It needs to be as good as it needs to be, but it can be completed vividly. It is better than those forwards who have poor shooting skills but are not calm enough.

For this reason, after the game, Yang Cheng and Lyon head coach Alan? When Perrin shook hands and was about to return, he happened to bump into Benzema who was about to return to the locker room. Yang Cheng smiled and nodded towards Benzema, Well done, Karim!

If it were other people who met Yang Cheng and took the initiative to say hello, even if they didn't come up to talk for a few words with joy, they would at least respond politely. However, the introverted Frenchman nodded slightly towards Yang Cheng. Somewhat at a loss, he walked into the locker room, leaving Yang Cheng outside.

If we say Benzema's only shortcoming as a player of this age group, it must be his character.

Being too introverted is definitely not a good thing for a professional player, because introversion often represents a certain degree of isolation and even eccentricity, which is very detrimental to a player's integration into a new environment. French eccentric genius Ane Erka is actually too introverted.

Looking at Benzema's back, Yang Cheng didn't care, because he knew that the French forward didn't mean it. He just shook his head with a helpless smile, turned around and walked to his coaching bench.

In the 25th round of the league, Barcelona played one day earlier than Real Madrid. As a result, Barcelona relied on Eto'o's hat trick, Messi and Xavi's goals to bleed Levante 5:1 at home, but the game was definitely not what the score showed. So easy, at least throughout the first half, Barcelona had nothing to do with Levante.

One day later than Barcelona, ​​the opponent won the ball, and the opponent in this round was Getafe with excellent defensive ability. This undoubtedly created huge pressure on Real Madrid in the Bernabeu battle. In addition, Real Madrid's recent state has indeed improved. ups and downs.

But no matter what, scoring steadily is more important than anything else. With Villa's goal in the 64th minute, Real Madrid defeated Getafe 1:0 at home and continued to maintain a 14-point lead over Barcelona.

In mid-week, Real Madrid, which played with a mixed lineup of main substitutes, defeated Racing Santander 3:1 at home in the Copa del Rey semi-finals. De La Rede, Aguero and Raul played for Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey. Winning the first round was a great achievement.

The score of 3:1 also laid a certain foundation for Real Madrid to advance to the final. As long as the away game is not defeated, Real Madrid will have no problem advancing to the final. In another game, Valencia faced Barcelona, ​​who also played half the main force and half the substitute. A draw was taken away from Camp Nou with a score of 1:1.

But the unlucky Barcelona was not only unlucky because of a draw at home, which led to a disadvantage in advancing to the Copa del Rey. Three days later at the Calderon Stadium, Barcelona, ​​which had 68% of the ball possession rate, lost with a score of 2:4. Defeated at the hands of Atletico Madrid.

Barcelona seemed to have reached a dead end, especially after the game. When Atletico Madrid head coach Aguirre was interviewed by reporters, he smiled and said that he found inspiration from the game between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

I think Yang Cheng's tactics against Barcelona were very effective. He really knows this team very well. I remember he said something. The most important thing against Barcelona is how to prevent them from passing the ball into our dangerous areas, so Our focus in this game was on defending in dangerous areas.”

We completely gave up the idea of ​​competing with Barcelona for possession of the ball. They had almost no threatening passes. The two goals we conceded were flashes of the personal abilities of the opposing stars. They had no possession of the ball, but very little. It’s difficult for them to make dangerous penetrating passes, which makes it difficult for them to create a threat.”

Barcelona used to be very mysterious to all teams, including La Liga teams. Almost everyone was racking their brains to think of how to restrain them, but now, after last season and this season, In a few games of the season, we have already understood the tactics of this team, and for the head coach, it will be easier to exercise restraint after understanding it!”

One day later than Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid challenged Huelva away.

This is another team with surprisingly good home results, but Real Madrid finally relied on David? Silva's two goals and Raul's goal as a substitute brought a near-miss away victory 3:1, thus widening the point gap between himself and Barcelona to 17 points.

Seeing that Real Madrid won Huelva, with 12 rounds left in the league, Real Madrid actually led by as many as 17 points, which made everyone feel that La Liga this season has completely lost suspense.

Cruyff also said helplessly in his column, We can't catch up, the championship already belongs to Real Madrid!

Rijkaard also shook his head during the interview and said helplessly, With the current state of Real Madrid, it is no longer possible for us to prevent them from winning the championship. This season's La Liga championship already belongs to Real Madrid, there is no doubt about it!

But as soon as the two people's words came out, Barcelona fans were immediately dissatisfied.

Under the current circumstances, whether they are beloved team legends or current team coaches, they should not say such words that damage the team's morale before the league is over. , this is not only a blasphemy to the team’s tradition and pride, but also a betrayal to the fans!”

We cannot accept that our team will meet the Real Madrid who won the championship in advance at the Santiago Bernabeu in any case. If such a thing happens, it will definitely become a stain in the history of Barcelona that can never be erased, whether it is the president or the head coach, Whether you are a player or not, you will become the sinner of the Catalans!

There are still 12 rounds left. Even if we don't fight for the championship, we must try to avoid humiliation instead of admitting defeat in advance!

The fans vented their anger and were more sad for the team's failure. Some Barcelona fans even went to the club door to demonstrate. Under pressure, Rijkaard held a press conference to admit his words. Improper and said that the team will not give up no matter what.

But it is a pity that whether it was the coach's inappropriate words, Cruyff's round of morale-destroying remarks, or the fact that the fans marched in protest, this was a devastating blow to Barcelona's internal atmosphere, causing them to At home, in a crucial battle with Villarreal, they lost 1:2 at home.

This battle also allowed Villarreal to return to the league runner-up again, because Villarreal defeated Barcelona 3:1 and 2:1 respectively at home and away this season. Therefore, with the same points, they can ride on Barcelona's lead. Over the head, promoted to second place in the league.

Real Madrid, who played a day earlier than Barcelona, ​​defeated Espanyol 2:0 at their home court and successfully expanded their league points advantage to 20 points.

This is undoubtedly an unreachable lead!

If under such circumstances, there are still people who think that Barcelona can reverse Real Madrid, they will definitely laugh out loud!
