Red Rebels

Joaquin Perrault sat on the coach's bench, pressing his temples on both sides with both hands, staring blankly at the stadium.

The former Spain international striker is hailed as the best coach in the history of Malaga, because under his leadership, Malaga won the championship and promotion within two years from the original third tier, and entered La Liga in one fell swoop. Stand firm.

Málaga's first La Liga season in its history ranked 12th, mid-range, not bad, especially for a team that didn't have enough money to support it, but the second season they were 8th , almost touched the shadow of the UEFA Cup.

In the following season, Malaga almost met the UEFA Cup again, which made the team determined to make a difference after entering the UEFA Cup through the Toto Cup this season, especially Perot, as a world-renowned star in the past, He doesn't allow his team to be mediocre.

All the Spanish media have recognized Pero’s coaching ability. The 67-year-old is behind the rise of Malaga. The Malaga under his leadership is known for his tenacious style, even in the face of Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​etc. Super strong team, his team is not without strength, Malaga has been a famous iron army in La Liga in recent years.

Fighting fiercely, more than tenacious, but lack of creativity!

This is the summary given by Boas in his scouting report to Mourinho. It also has a lot to do with the finances of the Malaga club. It is said that the club has been in arrears with the team for a long time. Salary, especially recently, President Rodin announced that the team's relegation and European competition bonuses will be reduced from 1.5 million and 1.8 million to 400,000 and 900,000!

This incident caused an uproar in Spain, which directly affected the performance of the players on the pitch.

As a player, Perrault is a well-known striker, but as a head coach, he is good at defense, especially the Malaga he shaped, but in this game he values, he feels a sense of anxiety .

The worry came from the fact that before the game, the chairman privately lowered the bonus, which brought a big blow to the morale of the players.

On the other hand, the double midfielder composed of Redondo and Junior Juninho actually played the ball control tactics uncharacteristically. They controlled the ball in an orderly manner in the midfield, making it clear that they were using the Malaga team to be good at defensive counterattacks. , is not good at controlling the weakness of the ball, forcing you to attack and play.

The whole first half went on for 20 minutes and got a lot of opportunities. Malaga was completely dragged by the nose and could not control the rhythm at all. Especially Redondo, this player showed a very good attitude on the field. Strong ability to control rhythm.

Passing, scoring, running, intercepting... He seems to have brought back the classic midfielder with fluttering white clothes!

Junior Juninho helped Redondo sort out the midfield very well, firmly controlling the rhythm of the game, attacking Malaga wave after wave, and taking the advantage of the field.

Perot had a gloomy face. He felt that the players were a little anxious on the field, which made him very worried, so he came to the sidelines and signaled that his players should be more stable and try not to cross the line.

But it can be seen that the effect is not very ideal!

Looking sideways at Mourinho, who was also standing outside the coaching bench to direct the game, Perrault had to admire the football wisdom of this young Portuguese.

Knowing that you Malaga likes to fight and fight back, I will not attack you. I have the top two technical midfielders. I control the ball patiently. Even in the end, I can accept it 0:0 away from home, because I will go back to the home court. is my world.

The Devil's home is only well-known in England, but this season it has spread all over Europe. It is a home that has never been captured, even Arsenal can't do it.

………………"It's a bit surprising, I never thought that it would play ball possession tactics at the Rose Garden Stadium. Is this still an English team?" Andy Gray smiled in surprise. ask.

Martin Taylor was also a little surprised, "In the first 20 minutes of the game, the ball possession rates of the two sides were 42% and 58%. In fact, the gap is not very big, but from the scene, we can easily feel that it seems that the whole game is completely different. In possession, Málaga is completely passive..."

"Hey, Drogba counterattacked in the frontcourt and passed it to Kaka who was inserted in the back row. Kaka took the ball and made a quick breakthrough in the middle and passed it to Robben on the left. Robben cut in and hit the goal... crooked. , what a pity!" Andy Gray looked very excited, but was a little disappointed after he didn't see the goal.

"I think the reason it gives us this illusion is that the players are running a lot on the field, they are always running, from Drogba in the front to Terry and Curtis in the back, they are all running. , so it always gives a feeling of covering the whole field.”

Martin Taylor nodded and said: "Yes, that's right, and we can see that the magic quartet in the frontcourt is not just attacking. Once they lose the ball, they immediately counterattack on the spot, which also caused considerable damage to Malaga. I'm afraid this kind of play is rare in La Liga!"

"Drogba's counter-attack just now almost resulted in a goal!" Andy Gray laughed.

"I think the most successful point of the tactical concept in the past three years is that they have always persisted and improved. Running without the ball, passing and receiving the ball with one foot, and fast and smooth cooperation in a small area are all tactical characteristics, which makes their No matter how dull the game is, it will not be difficult to see people want to sleep!"

Having said that, Martin Taylor couldn't help but continued admiringly: "Insist on this style of play, except for the League Three season, the remaining two seasons have allowed him to show a tactical ability that is higher than his opponents. The players are very familiar with this tactic, so we can see that after Abidal, everyone thought the steel defense was over, but an Evra appeared."

"Now teams across England and even across Europe know that the Newton Heath training base is a treasure trove!"

Martin Taylor laughed, "Indeed, I watched the youth team games, it was great, those little players showed a strong individual ability on the field one by one, I saw Messi and Ismail. , they are only 15 years old, but in the reserve team, playing against players who are older than themselves, they are very daring to make moves."

"This is also related to the fact that few teams dare to rudely provoke players now!" Andy Gray was obviously talking about the previous player beating Millwall players.

At that time, the entire English football world was shaken. Millwall's players were notoriously fierce, but they were beaten like pigs' heads one by one.

"Haha, I think this also has something to do with Xiao Yu's strength. A man covered in blood holds a baseball bat and blocks a large group of out-of-control football hooligans. This image is enough to make people palpitate, so we can watch So, off the court is Xiao Yu who protects the shortcoming, on the court is Curtis, Terry, even Essien, Drogba and others are all fierce, such a team, who dares to violate them?"

"Yes, but I believe that after tonight, everyone will be shocked, because Tie Han has also played the delicate work of circling his fingers!"

……………………If you think about it carefully, the ball-handling style of playing is different from the Barcelona that Xiao Yu remembered in his previous life. The only thing in common between the two is the rear of the organization center, but they play faster and more concisely. Pay more attention to physical confrontation.

This has a lot to do with the English team.

The speed and simplicity will make it impossible to reach the level of Barcelona in terms of ball possession, but in terms of the scene, it can firmly control the rhythm.

The double midfielder formed by Junior Juninho and Redondo is indeed weak in defense, but from front to back, the tactical concept of counter-attacking on the spot, coupled with Curtis's active attacking, is very good. make up for this shortcoming.

Redondo performed very well after the opening. He is the core of the team. At the same time, his teammates also trust him. He is the most stable point of the team.

Malaga also saw this. Perot wanted to arrange for players to target Redondo, but he still couldn't restrain him.

It can often be seen on the court that two players block Redondo, but the latter can always find a suitable ball point around, or Juninho beside him and Colo Toure, who moves forward, Or Curtis behind him, or Kaka who retreated in front of him.

When all the players are running, Málaga can't restrain Redondo at all, unless they are willing to put a lot of troops nearby and cut off the connection between Redondo and his teammates around. [^[Half(.*)／[float*(sheng]~] w.n float s update fast

But there are four players with super personal ability in the frontcourt, let alone Malaga, even Manchester United and Arsenal dare not let these four players ignore them.

This is equivalent to an unsolved problem. To limit Redondo and Junior Juninho, we must weaken the defense of the Magic Quartet in the frontcourt. To strengthen the defense of the Magic Quartet, we cannot limit Redondo and Junior Juninho. Neo.

Perrault felt a headache and was in a dilemma. He knew very well that there was no absolutely perfect tactic in this world. There must be a way to restrain this kind of play. Unfortunately, he couldn't find it for the time being, so he could only watch his own. The team is led by the nose.

And he clearly felt that the mood of the players on the court was getting more and more impatient. Although professional players should not be affected by off-field factors, once the team is in trouble, the mood of the players will naturally be affected. .

In the 36th minute, Redondo received Curtis's header to make a clearance, leaned against the opponent's defensive player lightly, and played a beautiful two-to-one with Juninho after receiving the ball. Suddenly blocked.

Drogba leaned on the central defender of Malaga behind him, and the opponent held him tightly. Drogba looked up and found that there was still some distance between the two flanks and Kaka in front. Stopping the ball, flicking the ball with his right foot, the ball passed through the left side of the defender, but he turned around deftly and passed over the right side of the defender.

The ball has been divided, accelerated, caught, and made a trip, and has entered the penalty area, forming a single-handed shot!
