Chapter 27 Chain Plan

"beep......"

A long whistle sounded, and the referee's finger was in the circle, indicating that the goal was valid.

"oh......"

The entire Selhurst Park stadium burst into exclamations, is this a goal?

Isn't this too fast?

Ten seconds?

The reporters watching the game on the sidelines were also confused.

"How long is the goal?"

"I don't know, I guess it takes less than ten seconds?"

"So fast? That's probably the fastest goal this season."

"It's very possible. I didn't expect this Chinese man's change of formation to be so effective."

"Yeah. I guess Burnley's goal has already been breached before they even reacted."

"Tsk tsk, this Chinese guy is becoming more and more interesting to me now."

...

Stan Tennant on the sidelines had no intention of paying attention to how many seconds the goal took just now. His previous formations were all used to deal with Crystal Palace's quick counterattack.

Except for a tall central defender who is responsible for marking Tony, the other defenders are mainly quick, flexible and quick to turn around.

Now that Crystal Palace has fielded two high center forwards, the defense he deployed is a bit unbearable.

Did they change players right after the game started?

That's too embarrassing, right?

Doesn't this mean that he, a seasoned veteran, has fallen into the trap of rookie coach Chen Ran?

But if we don't make a substitution in time now, if we can't hold on and are scored by Crystal Palace again, everything will be over.

For a time, Stan Tennant fell into a fierce ideological struggle.

"A good start."

Chen Ran murmured to himself. Only then did he slowly relax, not as tense as before.

The game is all going according to his script. This feeling of being in control of everything is really cool!

Now, it depends on how Burnley responds.

Chen Ran turned his head and glanced at Stan Tennant in the distance. He had prepared a killer move and was waiting for his opponent to see if the opponent would give him a chance to use it.

After scoring the first goal, Crystal Palace played with ease.

Guardiola and Simeone are responsible for dispatching in the middle, and Cristiano Ronaldo and Ribery on both sides use their skills and speed to repeatedly attack Burnley's defense.

Crosses one after another kept falling on the heads of Tony and Crouch.

That is to say, Crouch is relatively thin and is not as good as Tony in heading the ball. This allows Burnley's defense to barely support.

But after all, due to their height, Burnley can defend them once or twice, but there is no guarantee that they can grab the spot every time.

"boom!"

Finally, when the ball fell into the penalty area again, Tony smashed the ball into Burnley's goal.

"beep......"

Crystal Palace 2:0 Burnley.

"oh......"

The whole stadium cheered again.

It was already a 2:0 lead in less than twenty minutes, which was a wonderful start.

Crystal Palace fans are overjoyed and today's tickets were well spent.

Stan Tennant, who was on the sidelines, no longer cared about his dignity at this time, and quickly called a tall central defender to warm up.

This move was immediately discovered by sharp-eyed reporters.

"Haha, Stan Tennant finally lost his temper."

"That is, if the current situation on the field continues to develop, if Burnley does not make substitutions, they will definitely lose goals."

"That's right, Crystal Palace's twin tower tactics are simple and crude, and they just bully Burnley's defense which is not high enough."

"The key lies in the wings. Whether it's Ronaldo or Ribery, Burnley can't guard any of them. They are always passed by Crystal Palace through breakthroughs. Who can handle this?"

"It's a pity that Stan Tennant still hesitated. If he had made a substitution earlier, he might not have conceded the second goal."

"Hey, stop making sarcastic remarks here. If you change players at the beginning, doesn't that tell everyone that he has fallen into the trap of the Chinese? Stan Tennant is an old coach who has been coaching for many years, and he cannot afford to embarrass this person.

ah."

"The main reason is that the Chinese guy was too cunning, and even Stan Tennant, an old gangster, was fooled."

Chen Ran saw all Stan Tennant's actions.

However, the initiative is now on his side and he is not in a hurry.

Let the bullet fly for a while longer.

Sure enough, Burnley's tall central defender was immediately replaced as soon as he finished warming up. At this time, just twenty-five minutes of game time had passed.

With the reinforcements, Burnley's defense has become much more stable.

Even if Tony and Crouch were able to grab the header, they would not be able to fully exert their strength when they were interfered with.

The ball that was pushed out either missed or was confiscated by the goalkeeper.

Until the end of the first half, the score did not change again.

Halftime, Crystal Palace dressing room.

Chen Ran looked at the sweaty team members and nodded with satisfaction.

"Guys, you performed very well in the first half. You completely followed our pre-game tactical arrangements. It's great!"

"Those guys at Burnley thought we would use the warm-up match tactics and stepped into the trap we set. Everyone has seen the result."

"That's right, Burnley was fooled around by us."

"Haha, boss, you are so awesome."

"Don't worry, boss. Let's keep working hard in the second half and try to score a few more goals."

Looking at the smiling team members, Chen Ran smiled slightly and pressed down with his hands.

"Don't get excited, everyone. This is just an ordinary game. The league has just begun, and we still need to play one game at a time."

"Since we have taken the lead in the first half, I decided to test the effect of the tactical switch in actual combat in the second half. Our style of play in the second half changed from Southgate's tactics to Simeone's tactics. I understand everything.

?"

"clear!"

The successful first half greatly increased the players' confidence in Chen Ran.

The game progressed completely according to Chen Ran's pre-game arrangements, just like two people playing chess together, and every move of the other party was within one's expectations.

This feeling of knowing is something that players have never experienced before.

Now in the hearts of Crystal Palace players, Chen Ran's prestige has greatly increased.

He used whatever tactics he said, and no one questioned him.

After arranging the formation changes, Chen Ran came to Crouch's side.

"Peter, you played great today. But we have to change our tactics in the second half. How about you come down and take a rest?"

"Boss, don't worry, I have no problem. I understand the tactical needs."

Crouch grinned widely.

After appeasing Crouch, Chen Ran brought Ronaldo and Ribery together.

"After we switched to defensive counterattack in the second half, if the ball comes to you, you decide for yourself whether it is a pass from the bottom or an inward shot."

"I know, boss."

Cristiano Ronaldo and Ribery looked at each other tacitly, and now they could finally let go and play.

As the second half began, it was discovered that Crystal Palace had made a substitution.

Modric replaces Crouch.

Sensitive reporters immediately discovered the problem.

"Is that Chinese guy going to change sides again?"

"I guess so. This young Croatian player was the main attacking midfielder during the warm-up matches."

"So, Crystal Palace will play defensive counterattack in the second half?"

"Hehe, it would be interesting if that were the case. Burnley's two high school defenders now have the disadvantage of being slow to turn around, and they will probably be beaten by Crystal Palace in the second half."
