Chapter 292 The first connection of the peerless double pride
Messi turned around and used his back to block Dragutinovic who was rushing up. He first squeezed the ball Modric passed through with his chest, and then gently picked it with his right foot without waiting for the ball to land.
The ball just passed over Dragutinovic's head, and Messi himself quickly turned around and bypassed the unexpectedly caught Dragutinovic, dribbled the ball and rushed towards Sevilla's penalty area.
Seeing a loophole in the left defense, Sevilla's central defender Mosquera hurried over to make up for the defense.
Messi's movement frequency was extremely fast. Before Mosquera could gain a foot, he gently pushed his left foot and the ball passed between Mosquera's legs.
At this time, Paulson, who rushed back from the back midfield to make up for defense, also arrived in time. After seeing Mosquera being penetrated by Messi, Paulson rushed up and made a flying tackle.
Messi first picked up the ball, and then he jumped flexibly, avoided Paulson's flying tackle and dribbled into Sevilla's penalty area.
At this time, Sevilla's other central defender, Bolaruz, had to give up his guard, Tony, who was in charge of the defense, and rushed over to intercept Messi.
After seeing the gap in Tony, Messi did not choose to continue to pass by. Instead, he shook his ankle and rubbed the ball over Bolaruze's head and passed it to Tony.
If you want to talk about Juan Ramos' coaching ability, he did a very good job of assisting defense and replacing the Sevilla players.
Just when Bolarus went to make up for Messi, right back Hinkel rushed over in time to replace Bolarus to mark Tony.
Unfortunately, Hinkel is only 180cm tall, and Messi passed Tony, who is 193cm tall, with a very high ball arc. Even if Hinkel jumped to Tony from behind and competed for the top, he only barely got a little bit of the ball.
However, it was Hinkel's slight rub that prevented Tony from hitting the ball.
Just when Sevilla players were relieved, a figure suddenly rushed out of the wing.
"Bang!"
I saw that the man shot with an angry shot without waiting for the ball to land.
It's Ronaldo!
The right-back Hinkel, who was in charge of guarding Ronaldo, ran to the middle to make up for Tony, but no one went to make up for Hinkel's defense.
Now, where will Ronaldo, who is unguarded, be polite?
The rush into Sevilla's penalty area was a shot in the air.
Ronaldo's shot was very accurate, the ball was flat and fast, and goalkeeper Desanctis had no time to react. As soon as he made the move, the ball had already flown into Sevilla's net.
“GOAL!”
Messi passed the ball, Ronaldo scored, and the "two tyrants" teamed up to score the first goal in a historic collaboration.
Nearly seventy minutes into the game, Crystal Palace finally broke the deadlock and led Sevilla 1:0.
"Wow, the newbie Messi who Crystal Palace exchanged for Yoon Brahimovic finally broke out."
"First, I picked the ball and passed by someone, then passed by someone, and then avoided the opponent's flying tackle. It seems that Messi has a strong ability to surpass him."
"No wonder that Chinese man would trade Yoon Brahimovic for Messi. This little guy really has something."
"Looking forward to this Messi bringing us more surprises."
......
At this time, on Sevilla's bench, head coach Juan Ramos could no longer sit still.
After most of the game, Crystal Palace seized the opportunity to break through the goal, and it would be difficult to play in the next game.
The competition system that determines the title of the championship in one game means that there is no point in Sevilla's continued defense.
But if the attack was pushed out, the shadow of the European Super Cup last year once again rose to Juan Ramos' heart.
Looking back at the player sitting on the bench, Juan Ramos stopped his eyes on the Ivory Cote d'Ivoire striker Conne, who had just joined the team from Eindhoven this summer.
Have a gamble?
Soon, Juan Ramos, who made up his mind, replaced the left forward Adriano with Cone, and then turned the team's formation into 433.
Canut plays as center, Cone plays as left winger, and Fabiano plays as right winger.
As for the situation of left-back Dragutinovic, Juan Ramos didn't fail to see it.
However, for a second-rate team like Sevilla, the bench depth is limited, and there is no way to ensure that there are two players of equal strength in each position.
The gap in strength between Sevilla's substitute left-back and Dragutinovic is a bit big, and Juan Ramos is really worried.
So he had to let Dragutinovic continue to persist, and at the same time asked Paulsondo, the midfielder, to come back to help defend the left.
Seeing Juan Ramos' substitution adjustment, Chen Ran did not respond at all. Guardiola couldn't help but come over again.
"Boss, Sevilla has now become a three-forward formation. We only have three defenders, one of them is responsible for guarding one forward, and there are not even people who assist in the defense and make up for the position. Will there be too few people?"
"It's okay. Although Sevilla's three forwards are all good, none of them are the top forwards who can change the results of the game by themselves."
"And after the training of various competitions in recent years, our three defenders are more than enough to deal with these forwards."
"What's more, after Sevilla is pressing up to attack, the loopholes in the rear become bigger, which is a good opportunity to take advantage of the victory. At this time, we must make a concerted effort to lay the victory. Do you understand?"
"So that's the case, I understand."
As Chen Ran judged, after Juan Ramos replaced left forward Cone with forward Cone, Sevilla's midfield barrier became increasingly thin.
If Adriano could return to defend Dragutinovic from time to time when he was on the court, Dragutinovic could only count on Paulson now.
But in the middle lane, Kaka's threat is also huge.
As long as Paulson comes back from the midfield to assist in defense of Dragutinovic, Messi will immediately pass the ball to Kaka in the middle.
Kaka's ability to drive the ball can't be defended by Keita alone.
When the game reached the 82nd minute, a similar situation reappeared. Messi passed the ball to Kaka's feet before Dragutinovic and Paulson double-teamed.
Seeing Kaita coming up to steal, Kaka didn't play any fun, so he drove the ball forward and directly competed with Kaita with speed.
In terms of speed, Keita is not Kaka's opponent. In order not to let himself be thrown away by Kaka, Keita pulled and pulled, trying to stop Kaka from breaking through with the ball.
Unfortunately, Kaka is not only fast, but also has good physical fitness. Kaita didn't even pull her for a few times, but Kaka gradually distanced herself.
Since he is in the middle, Keita remembered the previous coach Juan Ramos repeatedly instructed him not to leave a chance to take a free kick at Crystal Palace at the front of the penalty area, which also made Keita hesitate about whether to knock down Kaka for a foul.
With such hesitation, Kaka had already rushed outside Sevilla's penalty area.
At this time, central defender Mosquera saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly came forward to block Kaka's route. If Kaka continued to rush down, he would have to face goalkeeper Desanctis directly.
There was Mosquera in front and Keita behind. He was about to fall into a double-team situation, Kaka made a quick decision and gently pushed the ball to the front right, then followed and shot it.
"Bang!"
The ball flew towards the upper left corner of Sevilla's goal like a shell. Goalkeeper Desanctis reacted quickly and jumped, and his fingertips would touch the ball.
"when!"
It was this touch that the slightly changed directional ball hit Sevilla's crossbar and rebounded back to the center of the penalty area.
Seeing the ball flying towards his position, Tony, who was quick to react, jumped and Bolaruz, who was responsible for marking him, jumped and fought for the top.
At this time, the height advantage is reflected.
Tony is 193CM tall, and Bolarus is 183CM tall.
The ten-centimeter gap made Tony easily grab the landing point and top the ball towards Sevilla's goal.
At this time, Desanctis, who had just made a save, had not had time to return to the position, and could only watch the ball fall into the net from front of him.
“GOAL!”
Kaka broke through and shot and hit the crossbar, Tony scored a goal and scored, and Crystal Palace led Sevilla 2:0.
As soon as the second ball was scored, Sevilla was immediately deflated from head coach Juan Ramos to the players below.
Because they all know that Crystal Palace's strength is above Sevilla. If there is only one goal difference, everyone can win back if they fight.
But now two goals are behind, and there are only ten minutes left in the game. It is almost impossible to turn the tables.
However, Juan Ramos did not intend to give up.
He called out the Belgian striker De Moore, who had just been introduced this summer, and then replaced Fabiano with him, and tried to make a living, hoping that a miracle could happen.
And at Crystal Palace, as soon as Tony scored the second goal, Chen Ran called Guardiola who was celebrating to his side.
"Josep, inform Alves of warm-up, and then replace him with Tony to play right back. The formation becomes 442, and Ronaldo and Messi play double striker."
"clear."
Watching Guardiola turn around to execute his orders, Chen Ran was full of expectations.
Using Ronaldo to play center and Messi to play shadow striker to match the forward line is his long-awaited idea. He just took advantage of the last ten minutes of the game to see how the effect was.
As Chen Ran used up his last substitution quota, Crystal Palace now has four defenders on the field, and three midfielders are responsible for defense. The offense is all handed over to the front midfielder Kaka, forward Ronaldo and Messi.
Carmelo's offensive combination, a fantasy combination that only appears in dreams, officially debuted in the last ten minutes of this European Super Cup.
Unfortunately, Ronaldo and Messi, who are still a little immature, are obviously not very adapted to their new positions and partners. They did not score in the last ten minutes of the game.
In the end, with the goals of Ronaldo and Tony, Crystal Palace defeated Sevilla with a 2:0 score and successfully defended the European Super Cup.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for winning the European Super Cup championship, and the special prize of the championship is 10 million euros."
Just as Chen Ran led the entire Crystal Palace team to participate in the European Super Cup award ceremony, the unsatisfactory Crystal Palace fans were still discussing the game that had just ended in the post bar.
"I'll just say it, Crystal Palace won the championship, surely there is no problem."
"That's right, if you can't handle even a Sevilla, that guy Chen Ran can be dismissed."
"Ahem, upstairs, you won't forget that Ji Tieran is also the boss of the club, besides being the head coach of Crystal Palace, is he still the boss of the club, right?"
"Hahahaha, that guy forgot that Chen Ran was still the team boss."
"Haha, sorry, I really forgot this. However, judging from the performance of that little guy Messi on the court today, his strength is still very good. Not to mention that he can compare with Yin Brahimovic, at least he is not a parallel person."
"It shouldn't be put together. One of Temao's height is nearly two meters, and the other is less than one meter seven meters tall. The two are completely different types of players, so the ball blind only puts them together and compares them."
"What is said above makes sense. Judging from the performance of this game, at least Messi's ability to drive the ball is still very outstanding."
"Hey hey hey, are you too early to draw a conclusion? I don't think it's too late to make a conclusion based on your performance in one game. It's not too late to comment after playing half a season."
"That's right, and it can't just look at the performance of the individual, but also whether he can contribute to the team. Anyway, I think no matter how strong a wide player's breakthrough ability is, there is no strong center posing a great threat to the opponent's goal."
"Upstairs, you're a bit too absolute, right? Ronaldo is also a wing player. Is he posing a small threat to the opponent's goal?"
"Ahem, in fact, according to Ronaldo's physical fitness, he can be trained as a center. I think Chen Ran also has this meaning. He and Messi were put on the forward line in the last ten minutes today, just as he and Messi were on the forward line."
"I'll go, upstairs, you seem to have discovered the highest secret of Crystal Palace."
"What? What secret did I find?"
"That guy Chen Ran is experimenting with a new front line configuration."
"You said Ronaldo and Messi? Come on, haven't you seen that they are not adapting to it?"
"Haha, so I'm trying it out. It's normal for a partner to not adapt to it for the first time."
"The one upstairs is the keyboard coaching team, and the appraisal has been completed."
“Keyboard coaching staff +1.”
“Keyboard coaching staff +2.”
......
London, Crystal Palace Club, Chen Ran looked through the newspapers and magazines that the little fat man brought over.
Although the European Super Cup is not a heavyweight champion trophy, after Crystal Palace successfully defended the European Super Cup, the outside world's public opinion is no longer overwhelming to see the results of Crystal Palace's new season.
Chapter completed!
