Chapter Twenty-Four: Can't Coexist? (Ask for recommendations...)

When the fourth official raised the substitution sign, Rongguang realized that the person Kaka wanted to change was not himself!
It's the number five Wilson.
Even the narrator was surprised.
"Kaka is finally coming! But...... He was replaced not by No. 23, but by No. 5 Wilson...... Osvaldo replaced a wing-back and brought on a striker. So what is Rong going to do? ”
No one knows what the glory will be arranged.
It wasn't until Kaka came on the pitch that everyone realized that both of them were standing in the position of the front midfield!
"Double front waist? São Paulo has never been like this...... Is this a desperate gamble, or is it a self-defeating situation? ”
"Rong and Kaka both overlap in positional characteristics, and both of them are crowded in the middle, which will only make the front court more crowded, right? This is actually not good for São Paulo's offense. Football is not a math game, the more people the better......"
Seeing Rongguang and Kaka standing side by side in the same line, many people frowned.
The telecasts even gave Sao Paulo manager Osvaldo a close-up to express their doubts through the language of the camera.
If they knew that Osvaldo didn't know what kind of expression Osvaldo would have......
Osvaldo still only has a vague idea in his mind about Kaka and Glory appearing at the same time.
He hasn't figured out the specific details yet, so now he can only let these two people play on the court at the same time to see, maybe what sparks can collide and bring inspiration to himself?

Glory saw Kaka running over and opened his mouth to speak.
Unexpectedly, Kaka preemptively said: "Don't pull me back." ”
With that, he turned and ran away.
Glory jumped to his feet: "Hey, this should be what I said!" ”
Kaka had ignored him.
"Hmph, what's the smugness, my sub!" Rong Guang had to muttered alone, and he accentuated the pronunciation of "my substitute".
But in any case, Glory is actually relieved. He hasn't been substituted yet, so that means there is still a chance, and he must score!
He clenched his fists.

In the next game, as analyzed by Glory and Osvaldo, Atletico Paranaense, who equalized, were definitely not willing to take a point at their home stadium, and they continued to launch a fierce attack on the goal of Sao Paulo.
They will be hoping to use the fastest pace to score another goal and turn the tide once and for all.
As for the speed threat of glory and Kaka, Atletico Paranaense is completely out of consideration at this time.
Two goals in five minutes gave them a boost of confidence. Alex Mineiro is in perfect form to convince the players of Atletico Paranaense that it won't be long before they can score another goal!
Sao Paulo was naturally unwilling to let Atletico Paranaense break it in one go.
They do everything they can to counter-attack when they're on the defensive.
When Kaka came on the pitch, they gave more football to Kaka than glory.
It's not that they still look down on Glory, but from a practical point of view, Glory is more likely to be targeted to death by the other party.
Because the change of direction of glory has been seen through these two games - he will do it.
It's so easy to defend.
Seeing his left shoulder sinking, then he must be going to the right. Seeing his right shoulder sinking, he will go to the left 100 percent next.
Although in the first round of the tournament, when he used this trick, he shocked many people. But after everyone calmed down, they found that Rongguang was still a rookie.
His trick is still of surprise use when everyone doesn't know that he will do it.
But after everyone knows that he has mastered this trick, it is not a big deal.
As his team-mates said, it's easy to change direction, even the goalkeeper can. It takes luck to replicate the miracle of two people in a row in the first game with such a simple pass.
As long as the defender keeps a few lines of space, he can stop the glorious passer.
At the end of the day, Glory has too few skills.
Naturally, he will be able to offer less variety.
It's still easy for opponents to guess him.

"Rong is still a rookie, it's too easy to be studied thoroughly...... Compared to other players, the seven or eight years he has lost are now his Achilles' heel. Assistant coach Mauro shook his head in the dugout.
Osvaldo nodded and agreed with Mauro. For Rongguang, he has too little experience, and opponents can easily guess him, which is indeed his weakness. However, he also has a different opinion.
"But that's why, Mauro. We look at him with such anticipation and want to see how he solves these problems that he has so hard to solve...... Isn't it? ”
Mauro smiled: "That's right. That rookie is always looking forward to it, like expecting what kind of gifts will be put in the Christmas stockings for the parents. ”

Kaka thinks it's normal for his teammates to pass the football to him after he comes on the pitch. Because Glory is in trouble.
Competitiveness burns in Kaka's body.
He wants to let Glory take a good look at what a really good professional player is.
It didn't take long for him to get a shot on goal.
It's a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, a sudden cold arrow!
Thankfully, Atlético Paranaense's goalkeeper Flavio was focused, jumped to his feet and lifted the ball off the crossbar with one palm.
Seeing that the football did not come in, Kaka looked annoyed and put his head in his hands.
But everyone else was applauding him.
"Kaka is in very good shape! It was his first shot on goal since he came on the pitch! It showed a very good competitive state! Atletico Paranaense's goalkeeper Flavio was only able to lift the ball over the crossbar, and he couldn't hold it directly! ”
Commentator Bueno said.
"It's long overdue to get on Kaka!" In front of the TV, young fan Correll said after cheering for Kaka's shot.
As she said this, she glanced at her father.
As a winner.

"Be careful not to let him shoot from a distance! Keep an eye on him! Atlético Paranaense's goalkeeper Flavio jumped up from the ground and pointed at Kaka to remind his team-mate loudly.
These words fell into the ears of glory. He was slightly upset.
Because of that, the goalkeeper never pointed to himself.
Damn, is that little of the threat I gave you?
Kaka performed well, and it made Rongguang feel threatened.
He felt that if he didn't put up a good performance in this game, he might not start the next game - his so-called "excellent performance" was naturally a goal.
Nothing but goals are outstanding.
※※※
"You only need one person in the front waist. Kaka is in good form, and Rong is redundant on the court. Why don't you replace him with a striker? "I saw Kaka do a great job, but where is the glory?
On television broadcasts, there are almost no Chinese in sight during this time.
Bueno thinks Osvaldo's plan to allow Glory and Kaka to coexist on the pitch has clearly failed.
"Atlético Paranaense is not Corinthians and this is not the final of the Rio-São Paulo tournament. A chance success has no reference value. Rong and Kaka clearly clash and interfere with each other on the court, and if you want both of them to play, then no one can play. If one person is outstanding, then the others must be overshadowed! It's absolutely impossible for these two to coexist on the pitch! ”
Bueno came to such a conclusion after the most reluctance.
As soon as the words fell, Atlético Paranaense went on the offensive again.
This time, they went sideways.
Alex Mineiro scurries down the flank. He shook off São Paulo full-back Gustavo Neri, who had come up to defend him.
At this time, Sao Paulo's Uruguayan central defender Lugano rushed out, made up for the side, and finally cut off Mineiro's ball!
But as a central defender, it is very dangerous to play to the wing, once he concedes the ball here, the defensive power of the middle will be weakened, and the opponent can immediately play the football to the middle and take advantage of the weakness!
So the Atletico Paranaense players rushed up to besiege Lugano, and it was a great opportunity for them to counter-attack and score again!
Lugano was clearly aware of this, so instead of wasting time at the back, he kicked the ball straight into the centre circle.
Fabiano was waiting in the center circle, and when he saw the football flying over, he resisted the central defender of Atletico Paranaense behind him, jumped up and headed the ball!
He rubbed the ball behind him, behind the back of the Atlético Paranaense backline!
That's a big slot!
"This is a great chance for São Paulo to fight back! By far the best! ”
Bueno, the narrator, roared excitedly.
Because he saw Kaka, the real genius, coming around in front of Fabiano, speeding towards the football!
Kaka takes the ball, and this counterattack is nine out of ten!
※※※
"Kaka ——!" The few São Paulo fans in the stands, especially Kaka's, let out screams of excitement.
Even Corell, who couldn't go to the stadium and could only watch the game live on the TV, jumped and screamed loudly.
"Kaka! Kaka! Come on, Kaka! ”
All eyes were on Kaka, who carried the expectations of these people and chased football.
And soon received the ball, and then he did not accelerate or hesitate, but continued to rush towards the goal of Atlético Paranaense with the ball!
※※※
"Hell!" Soto slammed to the sidelines, staring nervously at Kaka with the ball.
The offensive was so fierce before, why did he suddenly give the other party such a good chance?
He has always been confident in his ability to control the team.
This is the first time since the second half, and Sao Paulo has such a good chance to counterattack!
When Kaka had caught up with the football and dribbled to the Paranaense penalty area, he, as the head coach, really had no other way but to watch from the sidelines and pray to God, hoping that Kaka would not score this one-handed ......
※※※
When Luis Fabiano had finished ferrying, he turned and ran, intending to pick up Kaka.
But as soon as he turned around, all he could see was Kaka's back in the distance.
He smiled wryly and shook his head - I still want to chase Kaka? I don't know if Kaka at this time is the time when the power is the highest? Look at his speed...... It's like a gust of wind!
By the time I ran up, Kaka would have hit the ball into the goal, right?
Well, I don't want to waste my energy, let's go up and celebrate the goal......
Thinking of this, Fabiano slowed down.
Chasing Kaka is futile, just like chasing glory.
By the way, speaking of glory...... It seems like I haven't seen him in a while? Where is he?
As soon as he thought of the glory, Fabiano saw a white figure rushing out of the other side of his vision, slashing across his eyes like light!
Be...... It's Rong!
It's that kid!
He's chasing Kaka!
