Chapter 352: Levan's Explosion

"We saw coach Fang Jue of Ibiza shaking hands with Villa." Dolores said with a smile, "During the European Cup, coach Fang Jue turned into a die-hard fan of Villa. For a small team, we almost thought he was trying to recruit Villa to play in his own team."

The camera gave a close-up. In the player tunnel, Ibiza coach Fang Jue shook hands with the visiting team's leading striker David Villa. The two chatted for a while. It seemed that the atmosphere was very good.

The game is about to start, and the starting lineups of both sides are displayed on the live TV screen.

Visiting team Valencia lineup:

Goalkeeper: 13-Reina;

Defense: 11-Del Horno, 20-Alexis, 4-Albiol, 23-Miguel;

Midfielder: 5-Marchena, 6-Albelda, 22-Edu;

Forwards: 21-Silva, 10-Angulo; 7-Villa;

Ibiza starting lineup:

Goalkeeper: 13-Bravo;

Defense: 2-Bolarouz, 15-Hummels, 3-Koscielny, 16-Alba;

Midfielder: 5-Clement, 8-Greno, 7-Mata, 17-Royce, 10-Deisler;

Forward: 9-Lewandowski.

"The biggest change in Ibiza's lineup today is in the midfielder position. Makelele is suspended for accumulating yellow cards and Clement starts. This is not surprising. The biggest surprise is that Modric did not start. Fang Jue chose Clemente and Greno, the two players he single-handedly promoted in La Liga B, start together. This choice is surprising.” Dolores commented on this starting arrangement.

Ceballos suddenly sighed softly.

"What's wrong?" Fang Jue asked.

"I'm not worried about Greno." Ceballos expressed his concern, "As long as this guy is on the court, he often conflicts with his opponents."

Ceballos said it more tactfully, Guleno didn't have a conflict with the other party, it was beaten.

This guy has a broken mouth and likes to talk trash. The media has criticized this, but Ceballos has a different opinion on this. The guy is just a mouthful.

Fang Jue glanced at Ceballos, "I have already told Greno, he will play honestly today."

In fact, there are many players who like to talk trash, and Materazzi is the representative. However, the effect varies from person to person. Professional players have never experienced anything, and they are basically immune to trash talk, at most on the field. It's all about taking advantage of various opportunities to get back on the field, and few people really do it after being provoked.

If it wasn't for Modric's unwell health and Marchena's reputation for violent temper and provocation, both prerequisites are indispensable, Fang Jue wouldn't have used this card.

...

The game has already started, Fang Jue is sitting on the coach's bench, he is thinking about someone.

He was thinking about Valencia coach Unai Emery.

The new season has gone through three rounds, and the performances of Real Madrid and Barcelona were disappointing. On the contrary, the performance of Valencia, which performed poorly last season, made everyone shine.

Fang Jue is also interested in this new Valencia coach.

Not only did he repeatedly watch the video of Valencia's recent games, but he also asked someone to get Emery's detailed information and studied this person carefully.

Just like those academic coaches who "have a third-rate body and a first-rate football quotient", Emery, who was unknown in the player era, "performed amazingly" after teaching.

Having worked in low-level teams for a long time, on the basis of constantly enriching and improving himself, he has achieved his life goals step by step. Emery's professional experience is a history of the struggle of little people full of magical realism. Emery's coaching talent was first recognized by the outside world during the Almeria period. He led the team to perform well, and then was dug up by Valencia.

Although his hometown of Guipscua is a stone's throw away from Seville, Emery and the Andalusian have very different personalities. In this city where three great opera works were born, Emery is more like a pioneer with a "workaholic" attribute, studying game videos and tactical data and personally preparing "homework" for each player before the game "'s U disk is his biggest hobby.

"This is a guy who likes to think about things and think about tactics." This is Fang Jue's label for Emery.

Emery attaches great importance to the offense and defense on both sides of the team. Fang Jue noticed that Emery seems to be very fond of the role of the two full-backs. This person believes that the full-backs are the key to his offensive and defensive system on the wing. When attacking, he will ask the full-backs to quickly move forward to become two full-backs, and at the same time the two wingers or full-backs should move closer to the center to leave space for the two forward full-backs.

For Emery's tactics, Fang Jue gave his own judgment and summary: the defensive end is strong, the offensive end is elegant and easy, the counterattack is fast, and the side is aggressive.

Among them, the strength of the defensive end, especially the importance of the position of the midfielder is reflected.

Specific to today's game, Fang Jue directly found Valencia's "pulse door": Marchena.

...

From the first minute of the game, the game was intense.

Emery carefully studied Ibiza's games and tactics, especially focusing on the video of Ibiza's La Liga first-round match against Atletico Madrid.

Then, Emery came to the conclusion: Ibiza is difficult to deal with!

This is a very pragmatic coach. He didn’t feel burdened because Ibiza is a newly promoted horse, Valencia is a giant in La Liga, and Valencia’s ranking and strength are stronger than Ibiza——

Emery very decisively formulated the tactics of this game for Valencia: defend well.

Emery's conclusion from Atletico Madrid's disastrous defeat is that the most basic thing for Valencia is to ensure the stability of their formation, especially the defensive formation, and not to be pulled apart by Ibiza's lateral pull.

In the Ibiza 8-3 Atletico Madrid game, several of Ibiza's goals were frequently pulled by the two wings, suddenly shifted, and then tore apart Atletico Madrid's defense.

Therefore, Emery specifically pointed out that the defensive formation must be stable and not chaotic.

Of course, if it's just passive defense, the best dribble is to not lose the ball and play zero to zero. If you want to win an away game in Ibiza, you must consider the issue of offense.

Emery's tactic for Valencia is: actively fighting.

To be precise, it is a tough press.

Emery intends to make a fuss about Deisler.

Deisler is the captain of Ibiza and the absolute core of Ibiza's offense. As long as this German star is restricted, Ibiza's offensive ability will be greatly reduced.

So when the game started, Deisler was immediately taken care of by the Valencia players.

Deisler soon found that it was difficult for him to get the ball easily, and it was even more wishful thinking to get a comfortable space. As long as he got the ball, at least two players would surround him.

...

Fang Jue showed a smile, he had expected that Emery would use this trick.

No, to be precise, he has already defended against this move. Deisler is the core of Ibiza's offense. All opponents know this and will definitely make a fuss about it. Fang Jue is naturally prepared for this.

Valencia focused on taking care of Deisler, and Fang Jue had his own countermeasures.

Ibiza also rehearsed Deisler's response to the situation where the opponent is strictly defending in the usual training, that is, more transfer of the ball to Mata's feet.

Although Mata is more active on the left side, in normal training, Mata's position is very active. When needed, Mata can take on more tasks, can go to the bottom, can break through, Can shoot, can pass.

Walking between the attacking midfielder and the winger, or the function of both at the same time.

Fang Jue even gave Mata a name for the position played by Mata and the function it reflects in his notebook: side midfielder.

It can be said that Fang Jue has long been guarding against his opponents against Deisler, so in the usual training and game tactics, he entrusts Mata with important responsibilities.

Now is the time for him to play Mata's role.

If Deisler is focused on marking this game, then give more football to Mata and let the young Spaniard organize the offense.

Moreover, Fang Jue believes that Mata definitely does not lack motivation in today's game. Mata and Silva are known as the twin stars of the younger generation in Spain, and because Silva played in Valencia, he received more attention. Higher, this will obviously make Mata a little upset, this does not mean any enmity, it is purely a dissatisfaction among young people.

In this direct confrontation with Valencia, Mata can be said to be full of fighting spirit. Knowing that he will be entrusted with important roles, he screamed with excitement.

...

Ibiza immediately made an 'automatic' tactical adjustment.

After Deisler found himself encountering more defenses, he immediately started the 'backup' plan, and Ibiza switched from the 'Deisler core' mode to the 'Mata core' mode.

Therefore, the commentator and the audience quickly noticed that Deisler, who used to get the ball frequently, played very concisely today. After getting the ball, he would pass the football to find Mata as soon as possible.

At the same time, Deisler's position will be appropriately withdrawn, while Mata's position will be closer to the penalty area.

This obviously caught Emery by surprise. He didn't expect Ibiza to be dual-core. The problem now is that defending Deisler would have consumed a lot of Valencia's defensive attention, especially Marchena. Almost became Deisler's bodyguard, now not only focus on defending Deisler, but also pay attention to defending Mata.

This obviously increased the pressure on Valencia's defense. These two players are very strong. Needless to say, Deisler, the young Mata is energetic, has excellent skills at his feet, and is fast. West Asians have a headache.

For a while, Valencia was caught in a dilemma.

Emery's well-designed tactics for Valencia were frustrated by Ibiza's instantaneous switch to dual-core mode.

...

At this time, Emery did not notice a change in detail.

Marchena focused on defending Deisler, while Ibiza's No. 8 player Greno began to approach frequently.

That didn't alarm Emery, who saw it as a response from Ibiza's midfield, sending a player to help Deisler take the pressure off.

In the 11th minute of the game, Marchena defended Deisler toughly. The latter went out to find Mata. Marchena stretched out his foot to intercept the ball and missed the football. Then, in the process of chasing back, he hit the Ibiza player Ge Leno, there was a quarrel between the two sides.

"It looks like Marchena is very angry." David Zamora shook his head and said, "However, in fact, he was the one who hit someone first, and the anger should be Gleno instead of him."

His commentary partner, Dolores, didn't speak right away, but stared into the arena and said, "No, no, David, you're wrong, maybe something happened that we don't understand."

"what you mean?"

"Gleno," Dolores said, "this player is not simple. This guy is a shit-stirring stick. Don't be fooled by his honest appearance."

Three minutes later, Greno had an altercation with Marchena again, and the referee verbally warned the two again.

Fang Jue frowned slightly. His purpose was to let Marchena take the card, not to let Gleno and Marchena die together. Although in terms of the strength of the two sides, Ibiza would not suffer from this result, and it would still make a profit. However, It cannot be calculated like this.

Ten minutes later, Marchena clashed with Greno again after a scramble. The grumpy Valencia defender stretched out his hand and pushed Greno. strength, however, Greno fell down as if he had been hit by a rifle.

This caused a skirmish between the players on both sides. The Ibiza players rushed forward one by one, and they wanted to ask for an explanation for Greno.

There was an altercation between the players on both sides.

The translation is probably:

Why beat someone?

You do it! So bullying!

Is it reasonable to do it?

The on-duty referee Talvindra sternly warned Ibiza captain Dessler who was angry and protesting, but he finally accepted the protest of the Ibiza people and gave the 'perpetrator' Marchena a yellow card .

Fang Jue nodded slightly on the sidelines.

Everything is under control.

He doesn't have to let Marchena get a red card to be sent off to be satisfied, as long as Marchena has a yellow card, it is a success, which is bound to have some impact on the game.

Fang Jue imagined that there will be many situations in this game.

But there is one situation that he absolutely did not think of:

That was Lewandowski's explosion.

In the 31st minute of the game, Lewandowski scored first for Ibiza.

This is Deisler taking the ball in the frontcourt, and Marchena comes up to intercept.

When Deisler broke through, Marchena originally planned to tackle the ball, but before making the tackle, Marchena thought that he already had a yellow card and hesitated. It was just this hesitation that made Deisler break through. .

After completing the breakthrough, Deisler made a gesture to shoot, but suddenly passed the ball to Lewandowski, and then he ran forward by himself.

Deisler originally intended to cooperate with his Polish teammates to hit the wall, but he did not expect Lewandowski to catch the ball, pull the ball, turn around, and shoot.

The whole action is done in one go.

Then, the football crossed an arc and went straight to the dead corner.

The goal went so far.
