Chapter 54: Chen Yingxiong’s Head (Second update, please give me a monthly vote!!)

***, today's third update, please ***!! It's midday, please see if there are still ***s?

※ ※ ※

Before Casano scored, although Lyon was a little slow to warm up, their head coach Puel still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. He felt that this was normal. His team was not the kind of team that could get into the state at will. What's more... this was the away game, as long as you don't lose the ball. Then slowly find the state, and wait until you get into the state, and then strive for the goal.

The task he gave to the team was to defend first.

As long as you don't lose the ball, everything will be there.

So when Casano scored, he jumped out of his seat in shock, which was a normal performance...

He wanted to scold his mother, but he didn't know who to scold.

Naples' offense was indeed very exciting. Perhaps ordinary fans couldn't see anything for a while, but he knew very well. This goal was repeatedly trained... Every pass and run by each player is very particular, designed, and it is definitely not a flash of inspiration from several superstars. When Real Madrid was still called the "Galaxy Warship Generation", they might be able to play that kind of casual cooperation, but in this Naples today, it is impossible!

So there must be only one result, that is, Naples made precise deployments for Lyon!

He clenched his fists!

He has studied the tactics of three forwards in Naples before. Chen Yingxiong is the center. He has always been in the penalty area and never goes to the side. The side is handed over to Arshavin and Casano. These two people keep passing, providing Chen Yingxiong with a chance to shoot.

In this case, it is actually very easy to defend. On the one hand, it freezes Chen Yingxiong closely, and on the other hand, it curbs the crosses from both sides.

Unexpectedly, Napoli did not do this in this game. They still had three forward tactics. But this time they were the real "three forwards", rather than "one center and two wingers".

Each of these three forwards scored and scored, and one person had the ability to disrupt the entire defense line.

Therefore, it is unlikely to focus on defending a certain person. But if everyone deals with it, the strength on their own defense is obviously not enough.

He has a headache...

He has learned the tactical cultivation of Italian football coaches.

Just such a simple adjustment actually caused a fatal chemical reaction to the attack.

And it made him feel caught off guard...

In his annoyance, he turned his head to look at the coaching seat in Naples, and Mazari was hugging and celebrating with his assistants.

No wonder Italy has a very high evaluation of this person. It seems that there is a reason...

※ ※ ※

After the lead, the Napoli game was much easier, and this was their home court.

Lyon was mentally prepared for fighting at the Sao Paulo Stadium and was a little unable to let go, as if he had his soul destroyed.

It may be a bit exaggerating to say this, but Lyon did not reorganize after conceding the ball, and it is also true that he still couldn't find his state.

Puel no longer sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. After being shocked by the loss of the ball, he jumped up from the coach's seat and did not go back. He stood on the sidelines, staring at the center of the court anxiously, paying close attention to the changes in the game situation.

He kept calling out the names of the players on the court, reminding them to pay attention to defense and let the line recover and recycle it a little more.

Compress the space for Napoli players to move, and put the midfielders into the defense in the penalty area to avoid the disadvantage of numbers and ensure that every Napoli player has two Lyon players around.

He can only do this now - counterattack? Don't think about it. After Naples led the lead, he was in full swing with the almost crazy voices of the home court. If Lyon pressed out to attack, he would probably be seized by Naples to fight back. As he has studied, Naples' counterattack was also very sharp.

If you are losing a goal, you will basically have some thoughts about this game...

So now the team's goal is to maintain this score at the end of the first half - of course, if there is really a good chance, he doesn't mind equalizing the score before the end of the first half.

※ ※ ※

Lyon's defensive strategy of compressing space did cause some trouble for Naples.

But it doesn't matter. Naples just happens to have a way to break this intensive defense, that is... excellent personal skills, tacit cooperation, and... unreasonable power!

Excellent personal skills, Casano, Al Shavin and Sanchez are not short of tacit cooperation, as for tacit cooperation... the members of the Naples branch of the Food, Drink and Play Band have long been fighting together and been in prison to cultivate tacit understanding that ordinary people cannot imagine.

The power of unreasonableness is quite special. It only belongs to one person - Chen Yingxiong.

"Hero, hero, hero - hero!! Long shot! Beautiful! Loris saved very hard, he might have planned to hug him directly..."

When Chen Yingxiong took a long shot, Loris did plan to hug the football directly, but when the football flew over, his protagonist strongly told him - play it out! play out!

So he changed his posture in a hurry, from holding the ball to attacking with both fists!

He directly knocked the football out of the sideline.

The failure to give a corner kick also attracted praise from the French commentator.

But after Loris got up from the ground, he shook his hand hard - the football hit his hand, which brought a shock far beyond his imagination to his wrist, and it was extremely painful.

This is the first time that Loris has fought with Chen Yingxiong. All his previous knowledge of Chen Yingxiong comes from some textual materials and videos.

But as a goalkeeper, you still have to get first-hand information. Of course, you must use your own body to personally feel the power of the other party!

The conclusion of the feeling is… “What a powerful force!”

Loris may be a little unfamiliar with Chen Yingxiong, but the French commentator must be familiar with him. Because in the first half of last year, Zenit, St. Petersburg, and Marseille played two games, and those two games were also explained by the commentator.

In the two rounds of the match against Marseille, Chen Yingxiong scored three goals, one of which was away and two more returned to home, leaving a very deep impression on the commentator.

Especially his strong body amazes the French commentator. At that time, he was wearing the captain of Marseille, Lorik Sana, known as the "Marseille Killing Machine", completed a turn and shot.

The commentator was amazed at that time.

"Although Napoli's ball was scored by Casano, for me, the most dangerous person in Napoli is still the hero Chen!" The French commentator warned, but his voice was not heard at all by Lyon's coach and players...

※ ※ ※

Although Lyon shrank his defense, it still made them feel very difficult to defend. Because Mazari made adjustments later - do you want to create an advantage in numbers in some areas by shrinking the defense? Then I will follow up! He waved his hand and supported the front line, so that the number of players will be even.

What if Lyon strikes back? That's what Hamsik and De Jong are responsible.

It looks a bit crazy and has a lot of risks. If De Jong and Hamsik cannot stop it, the opponent's counterattack can directly face the back line, or even directly face the goalkeeper...

But this is the style of Mazari and Napoli. When it comes to the game, you have to take some risks. If you don’t dare to take such risks at your home court, then you might as well be a turtle forever.

To win, you have to push up and attack!

And this is not a rash press. Mazzari saw that Lyon was in poor condition. They seemed to be frightened by the huge booing and shouting of the St. Paul Stadium. This is the opportunity for Naples. They must seize it and then use it to completely kill the other party without mercy!

"Press up!Press up!" he shouted on the sidelines.

※ ※ ※

Hamsik and De Jong were almost pressing against each other's 30-meter line, but what about Lyon? Except for one striker, almost all of them retreated just to survive the dozens of minutes of the first half.

Chen Yingxiong did not always stand at the bottom of the penalty area - there are all people there now, and he can't get any chance if he can't get out of it. His teammates couldn't even pass the ball, so he retreated. His partners Arshavin and Casano's positions were more flexible. The three of them kept crossing positions, covering each other, and making balls with each other.

It is very difficult to make Lyon defend.

Although Chen Yingxiong does not have as outstanding skills as Casano and Al Shavin, he has powerful power. In the penalty area, his power is better than his skills.

Look at this ball... After Casano broke through, he gave the football to Chen Yingxiong. Chen Yingxiong stepped on the football with his feet. The opponent's defender Chris wanted to rush up to intercept the ball, but Chen Yingxiong stuck out his butt and blocked the Brazilian behind. He followed him and shot, but he still missed the shot under the interference of Tulalang.

Although the football did not enter the goal, it showed the important role of Chen Yingxiong, a tall center, in the penalty area. If such a center who can't even hit the ball in the penalty area, what else can be done besides letting him shoot or foul him?

Chen Yingxiong didn't kick the football this time, which doesn't mean he won't play it next time. If he didn't score a goal next time, it doesn't mean he won't score every time.

If he always asks him to do this, he will always find a goal.

But Lyon has no choice but to stop Napoli from getting the golden ball again, one goal behind the second half and still have to fight. Two goals behind, but they are still at their home court, so they can't play in this game...

Lyon was unwilling to let Napoli score again, so Napoli insisted on leading two goals.

※ ※ ※

Hamsik suddenly made a cold arrow outside the penalty area, and the football was beautifully saved by Loris, giving Naples a corner kick.

Naples' captain Paul Cannavaro and another central defender Ranokia rushed to the front from the backcourt to compete for the corner kick.

As for short players like Casano, Al Shavin and Sanchez, they were nothing in the penalty area. Al Shavin took the corner kick, and everyone else went outside the penalty area.

The restricted area is a world of experts.

Chen Yingxiong, Paul Cannavaro, Ranokia, and Hamsik are all in the penalty area. Hamsik is at the front point, but he is just a pretender. He has never been a scoring point in Napoli's corner kick tactics.

Paul Cannavaro and Ranokia were at the front, approaching the goal, and Chen Yingxiong was on the penalty area line. He lowered his head and did not raise his hands, looking very low-key.

But everyone knows that he will always be the most important person in Naples corner kick tactics because his header is so powerful!

Loris also pointed at Chen Yingxiong and shouted: "Please pay attention! Pay attention to their number nine! Don't let him rush in!"

Chen Yingxiong couldn't understand French, but he didn't need to understand at this time. He rolled his eyes. He was so low-key, don't hold on to me and don't let go...

But he didn't retreat and stood there. Hearing the goalkeeper's words, Baumson immediately threw Paul Cannavaro and ran to defend Chen Yingxiong. As the only person in the Lyon team who can get close to the opponent in height, how could he not stand up? Puel's evaluation of Chen Yingxiong's header was: "No matter how far he is, he can't hit the ball without any interference!"

Chen Yingxiong didn't even look at Baumson, he just stared at Arshavin who ran to the free throw.

Hamsik stood at the front point, as if he was going to head the ball from the front and rub it. He was 1.83 meters tall and his heading skills were barely enough.

But this is just a cover. When Arshavin was standing in the corner flag area and raised his arms, Hamsik suddenly ran straight towards Arshavin!

This is what it means to play tactical corner kicks!

Lyon's defensive player did not dare to neglect, and the midfielder Tularan, who was guarding the front point, followed Hamsik's butt and chased after him.

At this moment, Al Shavin kicked the football out with one kick!

It wasn't a rolling ball against the grass, and of course it wasn't for Al Shavin. The football drew an arc and flew directly to the goal!
