Chapter 387: Exquisite Coordination (Three Changes)
*****
Flores knows that the outcome of a game is not determined by the strength of the two sides of the game, the key to determining the outcome of the game is the attitude of the players towards the game, and the strength comparison can only be used as a reference.
This is the first round of the Champions League of the new season, so it's always good to be cautious.
Before the start of this game, many media set off smoke bombs on many players in the Valencia team, and Flores was afraid that the players would get carried away when dealing with the game, so he specially reminded the starting players in the locker room.
'It's the first Champions League game of the new season and it's definitely not a big deal for us!' Flores began to recall the fourth round of the Champions League group stage last season, "I believe many players in the team still remember the fourth round of the group stage of the Champions League last season, right? We had won three in a row before that game and everyone thought we would win at home, but what about the result? We lost to Porto at our home stadium......"
Last season's main frame was basically in the locker room, so the players who experienced the loss of that game subconsciously lowered their heads, indeed, that game was their carelessness, and the three consecutive wins in the group made them lose themselves, which led to the loss of that game.
“…… I hope you can learn the lessons of that defeat, even if the opponent is the weakest team in the group, we can't underestimate them, even if this team is an amateur team, we should treat it with care! So...... What we're going to talk about next is the tactical play of this game......"
At the noisy Kareskakis Stadium, Flores was making the final arrangements.
At the same time, in the home team's dressing room, head coach Moreniz also seized the last time to do his homework for his players, and it was only at the end that he turned his attention to captain Rivaldo, "You are the most experienced player in the team and the player who has won the most titles, so I want you to use your experience to lead the team to beat the Spanish champions Valencia in this game......"
Obviously, Orene's words were very useful to Rivaldo, and he nodded proudly, "Sir, don't worry! We will beat the visiting Valencia! ”
Rivaldo had previously scored against Valencia when he was at Barcelona, so he is confident that he can help the team in this game.
*****
Although Valencia were playing away, they were not aware of the visitors, and they began to play around the home team Olympiacos from the first second of the game.
The home team Olympiacos also has self-knowledge, knows the difference in strength between the two sides, and does not play against Valencia, they know that their opportunity is on the defensive counterattack, if they really play against the attack, it is estimated that it will die ugly.
So as soon as it started, there was an awareness of retreating to half the pitch, leaving only one Rivaldo to harass in midfield.
The midfield combination of Ballack, Albelda and Baraja showed the greatest effect when besieging, except for Baraja, who was a little weak in passing, Ballack and Albelda were both masters in this area, as long as they had the ball at their feet, they could rely on passing to threaten the opponent's goal.
The midfield trio were like a fish in water, but Iroh was in trouble.
As we all know, Valencia has only one attacking core, and that is Airlo, who can't stop scoring goals!
With five goals in two league games in the new season, his form has been so good that no rival manager would dare to ignore his presence.
After the opening kick-off, Iroh was flanked by at least two defenders, and there was also a vigilant ready to assist in the defense.
"It seems that this game is very important for the home team Olympiacos, and it has only been a short time since the game started, and Iroh is surrounded by two defenders, but ...... Let's also look forward to how Iroh will solve the current difficulties. ”
Huang Jianxiang, who came to the scene to comment, began to look forward to Ailuo's next performance.
And Huang Jianxiang's views also represent the thoughts of the majority of Chinese fans who support Valencia.
*****
Despite having two defenders around him, Iroh raised his right arm high as a signal to ask for the ball.
Zeverakov and Stoltidis, the defenders who were staring at Ailo without the ball, immediately became nervous and took two steps forward in unison, closer to Ailo.
Ballack, who took the ball, hesitated slightly, but seeing that Iro's arm stretched out one point more vigorously, he could see that Iro's request for the ball ** was very strong, so he sent the ball over without hesitation.
At the same time, Stoltidis took two steps forward again, ready to knock Iroh straight to the ground.
He was instructed before the game not to allow Iroh to hold the ball comfortably, and if the situation allowed, fouls were allowed, but only if they were not carded.
Stoltidis, as an old fritter on the court, figured out the penalty scale of the referee on duty as early as the opening, and was a little biased towards the home team, so he did not hesitate to use it as soon as he approached Iro.
Iroh looked at the four directions, and subconsciously made a move to protect the ball, ready to meet Stoltidis's collision, but at this moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, using the power of Stoltidis's forward collision, and started to catch the ball on the spot.
Although he stumbled under the feet, it did not make him lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground.
Stoltidis, who was behind him, was a little overwhelmed by Aillo's sudden change, but fortunately, full-back Zevelakov reacted quickly and was ready to step forward to break the ball while Aillo didn't stop the ball.
Maybe there's still a chance to counter-attack, because he also saw Rivaldo approaching this side.
Feeling someone coming after him, Iello didn't take the ball, but used the outside of his right foot to pass it to full-back Aurelio while adjusting his center of gravity.
Aurelio saw right wing-back Zevelakov leave his position and decisively took the ball forward, Zevelakov also realized his misposition, turned a corner, and chased Aurelio with the ball.
However, Aurelio didn't want to dribble the ball himself, and instead sent the ball back in front of Ielo.
It was only then that Zevelakov realized his mistake just now, and it was a taboo to run with the ball!
Zevelakov was not in his position, and Aurelio, who had just finished passing the ball, accelerated and ran forward, so Zeverakov, who was chasing Aurelio, could only follow one way to the end, and Ielo, who had the ball, could only hand it over to Stoltidis, who had come back to his senses.
Stoltidis spun around, rushed at Iro, and slammed his shoulders into Iro, trying to use his strong body to knock him to the ground.
For this kind of reasonable collision where both sides have a chance to get the football, the referee will generally not blow for a foul.
But what he didn't expect was that Iroh would suddenly stagnate when he had the opportunity to get the football, and then run in the other direction.
Suddenly, Stoltidis was stunned, is this the rhythm of not wanting the ball?
*****
"Beautiful leaky ball!!"
Huang Jianxiang's unique voice rang out in the studio.
At the same time, Olympiacos coach Moreniz began to get nervous, he learned from watching the video of the Valencia game that under normal circumstances, Ailo does not leak the ball, and the situation where the ball leaks basically creates a threatening attack, his eyes continue to follow the football forward, that is...... Barack!
So he couldn't sit still in an instant, and walked to the sideline in two or three steps and roared loudly.
But the players on the field are in a tense state of play, how can they have extra energy to focus on the sidelines?
No one noticed that Ballack, who had just passed the ball to Iro, would suddenly step forward, so Ballack, who received the pass, was unmarked!
Although the players on the field could not hear the voice of head coach Morenis, they could make their own judgments according to the changes in the game on the field, coupled with Ballack's long-range shooting skills, no one dared to ignore his existence at this time.
Seeing that Barak was about to enter his range, Stoltidis, who was about to chase Elo just now, could only continue to run forward and speed up his pace to interfere with Barak.
Ballack sensed someone coming from behind him, so he gave up his long-range shot and passed the ball to David Villa, who was retreating, before staggering and taking two steps back.
Because Morenes's defensive tactics focus on the defense of Elo's side, the middle is naturally ignored, and David Villa, who receives the ball, has no special person to defend, which means that he can directly face the two central defenders after taking the ball.
That's a dangerous sign!
So Stoltidis had no choice but to go all the way to the end, turning a corner and rushing to David Villa.
But what he didn't expect was that David Villa didn't want to take the ball forward, but used the arch of his foot to pass the ball back to Ballack, who had previously stalled and taken two steps back.
With a wealth of game experience, Stoltidis felt the danger at the first moment.
"Nice !!"
With Hyde's chanting, Ballack aimed the ball with his right foot and passed the ball into the space between the two central defenders of Olympiacos.
Who is there?
As the TV camera shifted, the fans watching the live broadcast were thinking about this question.
Whew-w
The person on camera has not yet appeared, but the fans at the scene let out a burst of exclamations.
At the same time, Valencia, who had come to the away stadium with the team, stood up from their seats in a hurry.
Because, that's—Iroh!
The big No. 9 appeared in the camera, and the fans who watched the live broadcast from far away in China also subconsciously stood up.
Dragged at the end of the backline, Aoadou instinctively raised his right arm to signal that someone was offside, but the linesman did not stop and raised the flag, but ran forward.
Anyone who knows the rules of football knows it...... This is not offside!!
By the time he reacted to the chase it was too late, Iroh ran towards the ball and picked up his right foot.
Iroh's direct volley from the penalty spot without stopping!
Goalkeeper Nicopolidis didn't even make a knee-jerk save, because the speed of the ball was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.
"Scored!!!!!!!! Valencia's guò was a brilliant combination, and it was Ailo who opened the scoring for Valencia!! ”
In fact, Huang Jianxiang raised his arms and shouted at the same time that Ai Luo picked up his right foot.
