Chapter 60: What Do We Do......

Inter Milan looked pleased with being able to lead Lazio by one goal in the first half.

So after they scored, they didn't suddenly change their tactics and attack Lazio's goal.

After they scored, they continued to hold on.

It's even harder than before.

It seemed that he was afraid that Lazio would equalize immediately.

And just conceded a goal, Lazio didn't dare to press it too hard, they would rather not equalize than concede another goal. If you concede two goals in a row in the first half, I'm afraid there will be no suspense in this game.

So after neither side attacked, the scene became dull and difficult to see.

The commentators complained that both sides were not enterprising. Causing the game to look bad.

Faced with such a situation, Chang Sheng did not make any adjustments.

He's even happy to see it happen.

His solution is to rely on the players to pass the word, or to shout on the sidelines, which obviously does not work.

Only wait until half-time to talk to the players in the dressing room.

So now he wants the score to stay at 0:1. He just asked not to concede the goal, and as for anything like an equaliser, he didn't want to think about it.

Sometimes it's because you have too many unrealistic fantasies that you lose a game.

Before he made adjustments, blindly letting the players press the attack only made his own death worse.

Until the end of the first half, Lazio could not equalize, the score was 1-0, and Inter Milan, who were playing away, took the lead.

The telecast was dedicated to close-ups of the two managers.

It seems to want to see how they react differently to this scoreline.

But let them down.

The expressions of the two managers are almost identical!

It's as if they've been discussed, and no matter who they cut to their faces, they're all expressionless.

Jose Mourinho and Tsung Sin walked into the tunnel one after the other and disappeared into the camera lens.

It also disappeared from people's sight.

So no one will be able to see what will happen during the time they are gone.

When the Lazio players returned to their dressing room. Victory is already in it.

But he didn't train people with a straight face, nor did he sit in the locker room in a daze and wait for people.

He was facing away from the players who came in, writing and drawing on the tactical blackboard.

He was so focused, he didn't look back even when the players came in.

Seeing that it is rare for their manager to be so focused at half-time, the players are also curious.

They didn't bother to change their clothes, or drink water and rest, they gathered around Chang Sheng, watching him write and draw on the blackboard.

The players who came in at the back were also attracted by the group of people in the corner of the dressing room, and of course they couldn't see the boss behind the crowd.

But out of curiosity. They would also run around to see what their teammates were watching.

So people gather more and more.

In the end, everyone. They all stood behind Chang Sheng and watched him scribble on the blackboard.

They could only see part of it because of the constant victory, but they also somewhat understood what the boss was going to do for them in the second half.

When Chang Sheng had done everything he needed to write, he looked back at the players standing behind him.

He wasn't surprised at their performance.

He held out two fingers.

"Two things in the second half. Guys. ”

Then he put away a finger: "One, attack in the middle, constantly put pressure on their backline, and constantly carry out various combinations. They defended well in the first half, especially in the middle of midfield, where we couldn't get a chance. But because of this. They would never have imagined that we would be looking for a breakthrough in the middle. Of course, it was difficult for us to break down their defence in the first half, but it was mainly because we relied more on individual breakthroughs...... But in the second half. We're going to use all kinds of passes and combinations, relying on the power of the whole to break through! ”

"This requires us to be compact and keep up. After the forward line goes up, the forward line has to press, and the back line has to keep up. Pay attention to the control of the second drop point. When our offensive ball is broken. Immediately start a counter-attack in the front court, even if it is a foul. We can't let them send the football over easily! ”

Chang Sheng ordered this because his tactic was very risky.

If the forward, forward and back lines stay in a tight formation, there will be huge gaps behind them.

This is tantamount to a golden opportunity for Inter to fight back.

But there are risks and opportunities.

Only in this way can a local pressure be formed enough to collapse Inter's defense.

Like a nail, it smashed into the Inter defence.

'Secondly, when they shift their defensive focus to the middle, the flanks are our chances. I think everyone knows what to do, right? ”

There are a lot of things that don't need the manager to talk at half-time because they become the norm in normal training and the manager just needs to tell everyone what to do at a certain point.

Good players know what to do.

What Chang Sheng wrote on the blackboard was what the team should do in different situations.

He showed them one by one, and then showed them on a tactical board with magnets.

※※※

Despite leading Lazio by one goal, Mourinho did not take it lightly, and his main job at half-time was to pour cold water on the somewhat excited players.

'Don't get too happy, we're just one goal ahead of them. If you let up the slightest bit in the second half, you could give the opponent chances. So the second half was the real test. In the second half you have to be under more pressure and as the clock goes on, when the game is almost over, it is the most dangerous time......"

"If you lose the game because of your carelessness, you will be ridiculed by the whole of Italy and even of Europe! Does anyone like to be ridiculed? I don't like it anyway! ”

※※※

At halftime, the live sports programs of various TV stations discussed the battle of the spotlight.

Of course, arguments in the studio are the norm, and Italian TV viewers are used to it. If there's no quarrel, it's not fun.

"Now it seems that Inter Milan has the upper ......hand," said one of the guests.

Immediately, another guest stood up and retorted: "It is Lazio who has the upper hand. All technical statistics are Lazio superior! ”

"So what does the score say? In terms of score, Inter Milan is one goal ahead of Lazio! The first guest retorted. If leading by the score doesn't count as gaining the upper hand, then what counts as gaining the upper hand? ”

"What's the point of a temporary score lead? It doesn't make sense if they wait until halfway through and they're still ahead. There are still forty-five minutes left in the game, and it's hard to say what will happen...... How can you conclude that Inter have the upper hand? ”

"The score doesn't tell the whole story, but it says part of it. From the first half, we could see that Lazio faced this kind of defense against Inter Milan, and there seemed to be few options. What does this mean? Explain that even if you give them another forty-five minutes, it doesn't mean much! ”

"Football is round, man. Don't even know such a simple truth? ”

The two sides pointed at each other's noses and argued.

The host did not persuade the fight, but added oil and vinegar to the side, smiling and watching the excitement.

This is the hallmark of television broadcasting in Italy.

Because the rights to broadcast football matches in Italy are on commercial television. Free public television stations do not have the right to broadcast footage of the game. They usually invite some lethal commentators or ball critics to the studio and watch the football game on the live screen while commenting and discussing.

At the same time, there will be some live audiences.

It's strange to have such a live broadcast of the game. Most Chinese fans may not be able to accept the meaning of this kind of "live broadcast" where you can't see the picture and can only hear the sound, but the Italians are happy to do it.

This is mainly due to the fact that before television was involved in football, live matches were broadcast live.

Many fans in Europe listened to the radio and began to experience the live broadcast.

So the old commentator will always tell the game in great detail. For example, so-and-so is passed to so-and-so, and so-and-so is passed to so-and-so.

Even when television became widespread, the Italian media used television for broadcasting.

And people who watch this kind of program often watch the analysis of experts, and the passionate performance of the commentators.

Fifteen minutes into the break passed, and the second half of Lazio and Inter Milan was about to begin.

Neither side made any personnel changes.

Leading Inter Milan doesn't have to do it.

Lazio, who are lagging behind, also seem to be very confident.

Their players came on and weren't frustrated by a goal down.

Opposite. They walked onto the pitch with their heads held high.

"Look at the expressions of the Lazio players...... It's as if they're expecting a comeback......" said the commentator Caressa.

Then he followed up with everyone's questions.

"But how are they going to break down Inter's dense defence?"

Yes, it took Lazio, who were always victorious, forty-five minutes. Nor was it possible to break Inter's dense defense, could it be enough to go through a half-time break?

※※※

With the referee's whistle, the second half began.

Lazio's performance was completely different from the first half.

Because they were different from the first half, in which Lazio's attack was mainly concentrated on the two flanks.

Right now. But they're storming the middle!

"Lazio is crazy?!" When Caresa saw it, she couldn't help but exclaim.

It's not just him. The reporters in the media seats, the fans in the stands and in front of the televisions, and their friends were all stunned.

Attacking the middle?

Even if it's a pseudo-fan, who doesn't know that the middle is the most difficult to play?

This is also why the wing on the football field is a battleground for soldiers, whether it is offensive football or defensive counterattack, it will be very important on the wing.

Because the side lane is the key to open the middle lane.

But now Lazio has abandoned the flanks and attacked the middle......

They are going to die!
