Chapter five hundred and sixteen predicting the enemy's first opportunity
Updated: 2012-09-09
As challengers, they have passion and courage, while as challengers, they have confidence and calmness. These are complementary things. When you are in a certain role, you will gain some favorable factors and you will also encounter some unfavorable factors.
The advantage of Sevilla is that they are challengers, and even if they lose the game, they will not be criticized by many people. After all, Mallorca's loss has become a rare thing in the past two years, while Mallorca's advantage of this is that their players have stronger self-confidence and the team's strength is also better. However, compared with Sevilla, their strength is on the surface.
However, this is not a problem for Jose - he knows the abilities of players like Sevilla. Baptista has been at his peak in the past two seasons. Although he has just turned 23, after leaving Sevilla after the end of this season, his condition has begun to decline.
However, Baptista has performed well in the past two seasons, or Caparos has tailored a set of tactics that suit him the most, so he is in Seville. Baptista's position in these two seasons is not actually fixed. He is like a free agent in the midfield. From a certain perspective, Caparos treats him as Barack. His physical fitness, running ability and ability to attack and defend are indeed very similar to Barack. His performance in the past two seasons is not inferior to Barack, otherwise he would not have been poached by Real Madrid at a high price after the end of the season.
However, judging from his future performance, his weakness is still very obvious. He is a player who can do anything but may not be able to do anything well. In this kind of free agent tactic, he can be like a fish in water, but it is normal to fix him in a certain position. When he was at Real Madrid, he played for Zidane and Figo, and even went to the wing to assist Zidane and Guti. Therefore, Baptista, who was not very fast, played very depressedly. After being loaned to Arsenal, he was even more unacceptable to Arsenal's rhythm. He also played very averagely. His lack of sprinting ability and rough foot skills were his biggest problem.
Although Alves' assist ability is quite excellent, it is not appropriate for him to be placed in the full-back position. This is why after Kafu retired, the main right-back of the Brazilian national team was Macon, who had a more balanced offense and defense, rather than him. Caparos arranged him in the right forward position was quite wise, but Ramos, who was protecting behind him, was also a little frivolous. If these two people were so excited, the position behind them would be a point that could be used.
Compared with Sevilla's excellent right and middle lane, their left lane seems much more ordinary. David is stable, but after all, he is already thirty years old. His physical fitness and confrontation are his weaknesses, while Lopez seems average. A typical old-fashioned wing forward is also something that Mallorca can use.
In addition, although Renato is diligent in defense, he is also a midfielder who likes to attack. You should know that he was also an attacker at the beginning. Brazilian defensive players basically have this problem. They have too many attackers, so many players have become halfway through the game to play defensive players. Just like Lucio, they like to move forward, and they are all defenders with swords. Such defenders will certainly make people feel very satisfying, but they are also easy to become time bombs.
Perhaps other head coaches are not particularly familiar with these players of Sevilla, but for Jose, it is not a secret.
Sevilla was the first to kick off in this game. They launched a fierce attack from the beginning of the game. They wanted to use their home advantage to put huge pressure on Mallorca, who had been playing double games for a week recently!
For challengers, the physical fitness that often has the advantage is also their source of confidence.
Although Sevilla also ushered in European competitions in the middle of the week, the schedule of the League Cup was much easier in the first half of the season than the Champions League. They only played two qualifiers in September, and then played the second round of the group stage in the middle of the week - because they were bye in the first round.
The opponent is not very strong, it is Aachen from the German League Two. This Bundesliga team became the dark horse in the German Cup last season. They reached the final of the German Cup and finally lost to Werder Bremen, because Bremen was the Bundesliga champion last season and qualified to participate in the Champions League. This is why Aachen entered the UEFA Cup as the runner-up of the German Cup - this is also a rare thing in the history of European competitions, with a second-level team participating in European competitions...
However, Aachen was the dark horse of the German Cup last season. After all, they were just a German second team. The outstanding performance in the German Cup was more related to luck. After all, the German Cup was a single knockout match. If they were really outstanding, they wouldn't even be able to make it to the Bundesliga. In this game, they lost zero to two without causing much trouble for Sevilla, which also allowed Sevilla to focus more on the game against Mallorca.
Mallorca retained strength in the Champions League against Dynamo Kiev, and Sevilla was the same. At the same time, their match against Aachen was at home, and this game was also at home. Mallorca flew from the warm spring Mallorca to the cold Kiev, and then came to the same warm Sevilla. The tossing along the way alone was enough to make them feel a little unbearable.
Caparos is also a head coach who is good at taking advantage of various factors.
Mallorca was prepared for the fierce attack on Sevilla - Jose originally defeated one opponent after another as a challenger before he reached his current position. Naturally, he was prepared for this situation. He had to use his physical fitness and unexpected behavior. Otherwise, after entering the 1990s, why did South American clubs compete with European clubs in the Toyota Cup? Isn’t it these two points?
The so-called person who is good at robbing food is not a robbing food by others. Jose started his career by robbing people and robbing people of food. He caught Arsenal off guard with his strong defense and made Real Madrid in the first phase of the Galaxy with his abundant physical strength. It was because of the use of various situations. Caparos thought very thoughtfully, but Jose thought more thoughtfully!
So when Sevilla launched a fierce attack at the beginning, Mallorca did not push out tit-for-tat, but honestly began to shrink its defense - this approach surprised Sevilla, because basically few people can see Mallorca going to defend honestly...
Since you are in full swing, you are excited by the bold words at the beginning of the game and the ** that want to challenge the strong, why do we fight with you? If you are a top-notch family, you will fight, but with Sevilla... Hahaha, the son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall...
Therefore, Mallorca was a grandson from the beginning, and Mallorca's defensiveness was relatively bad. The main reason is that they will definitely have many flaws when pressing the attack. However, in fact, their players' defensive abilities are not bad. Needless to say, Matthias, a defender trained by Jose by coaching an Italian central defender. Although Mex is frizzy, he is a very outstanding central defender. Even two full-backs do not know how to defend. Macon himself has both offense and defense. Although Ram has changed from an offensive player to a sideline, he has changed from an offensive player to a sideline.
The defender, he has been constantly honing his defensive ability this year, and his small and flexible body sometimes gives him a great advantage. At least when facing Alves' rapid advance on the sideline, he relied on his own speed to block Alves' inward cutting route. Alves' style itself is a big opening and closing. After he forcibly breaking through, the threat of entering the penalty area is quite great. However, if it is just a cross, his cross level is not particularly high, at least not the kind of player who can pass through the mysterious cross.
At the front of the penalty area, Alonso gave up his mission of organizing the offense and followed Baptista closely. The two were about the same height, both 1.83 meters tall. Although Alonso was a little thin, he was not much worse. He could basically control Baptista's offense while following closely.
Senna checked for the missing and made up for the gaps around him, while Mallorca, who reclaimed the defense, did not give the opponent two forwards too much space in the penalty area. Neither Hesouri nor Dario Silva were the players who were trying to grab the point, and their offense also needed space.
Facing the recycling of Mallorca, Sevilla players could not find the offensive route. They were not Mallorca and their opponents were rarely afraid of them, so they rarely encountered this situation when attacking. Sevilla fans in the stands booed, thinking that Mallorca players were just a group of cowards. They didn't even dare to attack in the great Pisjuan Stadium...
But the fans of Mallorca smiled and were stress-free-now you know it was very unhappy to encounter the Iron Barrel Formation? The teams supported by my buddy have encountered the Iron Barrel Formation almost every game...
After several times of transition, he found that he could not find a good opportunity, Sevilla had to end the attack in a hurry. After Alves forced a breakthrough on the wing, Cameni got the cross. The Cameroon goalkeeper held the ball in his arms and then signaled his teammates to press forward.
It was not until six seconds later that Cameni threw the ball to Macon on the right to launch an attack. Macon stopped the ball at his feet and then started to lead forward. When Lopez pressed him up, he passed the ball to Alonso who was behind. Alonso stopped the ball, and then suddenly took a step, and a straight pass passed the ball to Iniesta in the front!
While receiving the ball, Iniesta also completed a straight pass, and the ball passed through Sevilla's penalty area. Torres stepped forward with the opportunity!
With two straight passes, Mallorca instantly pushed his attack from the backcourt to the opponent's penalty area!
Esteban showed his excellent judgment and attack ability in the face of this attack. Esteban, who is only over 1.8 meters tall, can keep playing in La Liga, because of his attack and reaction. This ball is no exception. Esteban immediately attacked decisively after Iniesta passed the ball, and then fell to the ground in front of Torres and hugged the ball!
Torres braked suddenly, stopped in front of Esteban, then bent down and patted Esteban, then stood up and ran back.
There is still a lot of time left in this game. If the game is released, there will be more opportunities to meet in the future!
Chapter completed!
