Chapter 633: Discounted Victory

"David, Robin, prepare to play!" Jose turned to the bench and said, "Silva and Van Persie immediately jumped out of the seat - at this time, they were replaced by the two of them, Jose had only one purpose, that is, to take the lead again in the remaining ten minutes - all he wanted was victory, and the draw was meaningless to him!

If only one draw is available, I would rather lose this game cleanly - that's what Jose thought at this time.

Rijkald was also not satisfied with the draw. It can be predicted that there will be a more intense battle in the remaining ten minutes of the game (plus stoppage time)!

Silva replaced Senna, and Van Persie replaced Klose who scored a goal. Now Mallorca's lineup has actually become a 433 lineup. Jose told Silva that his position was moving forward and pushed to the left winger's position, while Van Persie was more active on the right. With Torres in front, Mallorca's current style of play is very similar to the future style of play of the Spanish national team. The three forwards are not considered standard centers, with a large running range and constantly changing positions with the midfield. This method of blurring the position on the field last season, but it was adopted at that time without any forwards, which was a helpless move, but this time it was a surprise...

Jose has practiced this tactic many times in training. Although it is not Mallorca's conventional tactics, it has become a type of Mallorca's auxiliary tactics. Therefore, Jose can be used in such a temporary adjustment - a new tactic is definitely not something that the head coach can use just by slapping his forehead. Without regular training and familiarity, using it rashly will only make the players feel at a loss.

After Senna was out, Mallorca's midfield interception ability decreased. Mendieta's position began to retreat. While using running to help defense, he began to use long passes to help Mallorca complete the attack. Alonso played a dispatch and connector in the middle, while Kaka slightly retreated, playing the role of connecting the midfield. In addition to this, Torres and Van Persie would often retreat to the midfield to switch positions with Kaka, allowing Kaka to get the opportunity to forward and disrupt Barcelona's defense.

This kind of offense looks very messy because you can't see Mallorca's formation from the air. The four or five people in the frontcourt are constantly changing positions back and forth. Each of them has no fixed position, and the midfield is pressing quite well, concentrating all the games in the middle circle. Once the ball is lost in the frontcourt, they will immediately use active snatch to make the opponent's offense the greatest impact. At the same time, Mathias drags a little further back and prepares to make up for the position and steal at any time.

In this chaotic style of play, Barcelona also began to appear chaotic because they adapted to the confrontation corresponding to Mallorca's position in the previous game, just like in ancient times fighting and fighting against each other. Now Mallorca's tactics have changed, from a dignified position attack to a disruptive battle, just like from a charge of a chariot suddenly turning into a ranger harassment. How could Barcelona players turn around for a moment...

Rijkald's lack of tactical adaptability was exposed at this time. He did not realize that the current situation was quite unfavorable to Barcelona. Instead, he just thought that Mallorca's tactical system had collapsed. Even if he attacked fiercely at this time, it would become more and more messy. Then in the next time, he would be suppressed by Barcelona in turn and then defeated by Barcelona away...

"Do you want to defeat us if you change to two offensive players to fight a random battle? Mr. Jose, you are thinking too simple now..." Rijkaard smiled coldly in his heart.

However, soon, he couldn't laugh. Mallorca's messy offense not only did not become chaotic in the next game, but instead played more and more fiercely. Instead, Barcelona's lineup was disrupted by Mallorca, and their offense began to become chaotic, and passing the ball was prone to mistakes...

"What's going on?" Rijkaard opened his eyes wide in disbelief. He was not so surprised when he was behind two goals before, because although he was behind two goals before, Mallorca burst out with quite strong strength at that time. Then he naturally began to decline in physical fitness, and then was scored by the new force Messi two goals in a row...

And now? He obviously couldn't see that Mallorca's attack was so clever, but Mallorca had such a big advantage. It was like he had a halo of chaos, and he kept his own awake and put his opponent in chaos...

Before he could figure out what was going on, Mallorca's offense had already achieved results again. Mendieta transferred the ball to Kaka, and Kaka passed it straight into the penalty area. Silva followed on the left. He rushed towards the ball at high speed. Then when the ball was about to go out of the baseline, he first made a kick and passed the ball to the back point of the penalty area. Van Persie was inserted from that place - although his goal was basically scored with both feet, don't forget that he is also 1.86 meters tall...

Sylvinho's interference behind him did not make Van Persie lose his center of gravity. He faced the falling ball, looked at Valdes, who was panicked and rushed over from the middle, and hit the ball!

The ball flew into the goal from the near corner of the goal. Although Valdes rushed over, the ball flew over from his hand and plunged into the goal!

Van Persie won the finale! Silva assisted! The two newly replaced players did not disappoint Jose's expectations. They scored the most critical goal at the most critical moment!

"You have Messi, and I have Silva too! Maybe he won't dominate the world like Messi in the future, but he may not be worse than Messi's value to a team! What's more, I have so many outstanding young players, Van Persie, Torres, Iniesta, Matthias... Barcelona, ​​in the next few years, with a Real Madrid, we still have a game between us!"

Jose raised his arms and jumped up from the coach's seat, then turned around and waved his arms in the stands, making their cheers louder. Seeing his move, the cheers of Mallorca fans really became louder. When they were equalized, they felt worried for a while, and the goal in the 88th minute made them feel even more excited. The winning of the final victory was more heart-warming and happy than a calm victory, and made people feel the charm of football more!

Van Persie ran towards Silva, and Silva pointed at Van Persie with a smile. Unlike Puerta last season, Silva had more opportunities this season, and he quickly showed his outstanding ability. In addition to being no slower than Puerta, his skills and cooperation awareness under his feet are more delicate and excellent than Puerta. This type of player can easily integrate into Mallorca's midfield, because Mallorca's midfield is all of this kind of technical players, and technical players can naturally be more easily integrated with technical players. Seeing this scene, Puerta, who was watching this game far away in the United States, suddenly felt a little confused. Will he have his own position after he recovered his health and returned to Mallorca?

Not to mention Puerta's sad mood, who was far away in the United States, after taking the lead again, José pulled Ram over the side and whispered a few words to him. Ram quickly conveyed his instructions to all the players.

After the kick-off, Mallorca's tactics returned to its original state. Silva began to return to the midfield position, Van Persie and Torres formed a double striker. Mallorca resumed his previous tactics and began to block Barcelona's attack from the midfield layer by layer. Rijkaard also made the last substitution. Larson replaced right-back Oleg, and Barcelona was preparing to launch a strong attack. However, the effect of this offense was not particularly good. Mallorca's midfield interception and running was quite active, and after they retreated to defend, they did not leave any space to give Barcelona's fast forwards the opportunity behind them. In the case of positional battles, it was quite difficult for Barcelona's forwards to find opportunities on Mallorca's defense.

The referee's stoppage time reached four minutes, which made Mallorca's fans boo. However, even with four minutes of stoppage time, Mallorca's excellent recovery defense made Barcelona's offense make no achievements in the next time. Ronaldo and Messi continued to drive the ball and break inward, but were always intercepted by Mallorca's layers of defense. Their crosses on the wing could not create any opportunities. Etoo tried very hard, but his breakthrough and grabbing were resolved one by one by Mattias, who was very familiar with him...

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, the fans of Mallorca from all over the audience gave a huge cheer!

Their team finally defeated Barcelona four-to-three at home in a classic game - it is worth mentioning that last season Mallorca also defeated Barcelona four-to-three at home, and then finally won the league championship three consecutive championships - in the eyes of Mallorca fans, this seems to be a harbinger, proving that Mallorca can win four consecutive championships in the league...

However, after the game ended, Jose just breathed a sigh of relief. This game was indeed a victory, but the goal he wanted to achieve was not fully achieved...

For Jose, he not only wants to win this game, but also win a victory with a huge advantage, psychologically destroying the confidence of Barcelona players - he knew that when the two teams met, Mallorca had the advantage to defeat Barcelona, ​​but in the long-term league competition, Barcelona's goal-grabbing ability is better than Mallorca now. If not, Mallorca would not be able to catch up with Barcelona while falling behind three points.

For Barcelona will basically not lose points on the middle and lower teams, but Mallorca will lose points occasionally. However, although they won this game, there are several variables that make Mallorca less happy. Iniesta's injury and Messi's outbreak... In the end, Jose can be said to have taken the bottom of the box to win this game. Although Barcelona lost the ball, their confidence was not shaken. The significance of this victory naturally gave some discounts...

"No matter what, winning is better than not winning. I can only try my best to fight for the next thing. No matter what, the current situation is much better than before..." Jose thought in his heart, then stood up and hugged the players who rushed over.

In any case, it is time to cheer and celebrate!
