Chapter 29: Team Injuries and New Star Skills
Sofia is gone.
When she left, she handed over the villa key to Lu Yang, and she really let the construction team quickly complete the construction of an artificial turf court.
With Sofia's financial resources, even a small natural turf course can afford it, but there is no time left.
Sofia could feel that if there were no such stadium, Lu Yang might have refused to come here to help her see the house.
When Lu Yang and Moric finished training and were about to return to the villa, they learned that Lu Yang had settled in Sofia's mansion and Moric completely deteriorated.
He felt that his friendship with Lu Yang was about to end.
At this point, he vowed that he would never make friends with people of 1.81 again.
Their rebellion was beyond their expectations.
Rondo comforted Molic and said, "Don't do this, you will also change this way when you talk about your girlfriend."
Molic asked in confusion: "So will friendship be greatly reduced after love?"
Rondo said: "At least it was like this at the beginning."
Molic said: "What did you look like when you are in love? Is it the same state that Lu gave up on friendship?"
Rondo said: "Isn't it possible to say that there are too many similarities, I can only say that they are... exactly the same... No, I was even more out of the way than him at the beginning, just like a licking dog! To be honest, Lu Yang's current condition is a hundred times better than mine at the beginning. You have to understand him. After all, Sophia is his first love, and they are hot, do you understand what I mean."
Molic seems to understand, but it seems that women are more complicated than football.
On the other hand, Lu Yang never expected that he would get rewards if he did not participate in the competition.
"Ding! The team defeated the opponent without you, and you got a random gift package *1."
"Ding! You opened the gift package and obtained the star-level skill, Golden Wolf Guti's straight pass ball!"
It's a wolf again!
Another star skill!
Lu Yang smiled happily.
The King of Red Wolf Toti's spoon shot.
Golden Wolf Guti's straight pass ball.
Will the next time I open the bag, will it be the lone wolf Romanio's shot or something?
Guti is a Real Madrid midfielder and is known for his nerve knife.
His straight pass is very sharp and can often kill him with one blow. But the high-yield behavior of such a straight pass is the high risk of being hit and hit by someone to fight back if he fails to pass.
Guti has been controversial in his career, but he has never changed his style and insisted on this sharp style of playing.
This made his midfield not stable enough, but made fans obsessed with it, mobilizing the fans' adrenal hormones again and again.
This star skill has greatly increased Lu Yang's passing ability.
Long passes grew to 60.
The short message woke up and came directly to 55 o'clock.
The strength under the feet changed from 50 to 55.
Moreover, the straight pass generally refers to the ground passing, which further improved Lu Yang's passing ability. Previous low-altitude passes and heavy-spinning spin passes were both high-altitude long passes.
...
After all the results of Yiding's 35th round of the league came out, the points ranking changed again.
Turis defeated his opponent and still maintained the lead, with his current points reaching 73 points.
Bischelle did not continue to lose the chain and also won, ranking second with 71 points.
Francavila fell into the dilemma of the striker's weakness due to the injury of the main center, and tied the opponent with zero regret, ranking third in the standings with 69 points.
Moreover, they are in the same position as San Remo, who is ranked fourth!
It’s just that the Yiding League rankings are the priority of the winner and loser, while Franavila’s record against San Remo is one win and one draw, so he ranks third.
San Remo had only two draws in the second half of the season, and all the others won, and one of them was given by Francavila.
But even so, as long as the same score occurs, San Remo is basically at a disadvantage.
Because they lost to the top six teams in the first half of the season.
Even if most of them win back in the second half of the season, they often fall behind in the first half of the season. If they cannot win in the second half of the season, they will generally have disadvantages in the goal difference competition between the two sides.
This is a hidden danger to San Remo.
Palermo, ranked fifth and Catania, ranked sixth, also won, biting behind San Remo and Francavila with 67 points and 66 points respectively.
The competition in the top six is becoming increasingly fierce.
The day before the 36th round of the game, during regular training, the team started the right center back with a strained thigh. After inspection, it was confirmed that he would miss all games after the season.
The team made temporary adjustments, and substitute centre-back Najib entered the starter.
Considering Najib's colander attributes, many people are pessimistic about this adjustment.
Fortunately, San Remo's opponent in the next round is Viterbo, a weak team that has confirmed the relegation quota early.
One day later, the 36th round of the league kicked off.
In the seventh minute of the game, Lu Yang made a straight pass, which amazed the audience.
At that time, there were at least four people between him and the team's center, but Lu Yang's straight pass flew out accurately from the four people, thus appearing at the foot of the San Remo's center.
This was Lu Yang's rare accurate ground pass, which caught the opponent off guard.
Because before San Remo was the only one who could pass such a ball!
The goal is a one-on-one striker. The center of San Remo did not miss this good opportunity and scored the first record for the team.
San Remo leads Viterbo one to zero.
Although the relegation is certain, this does not mean that Viterbo's players do not want a victory.
You should know that San Remo is an Internet celebrity team in Yiding, and even most of the Italian teams are far less concerned than theirs.
There are also rumors in the media that scouts from big teams often watch San Remo games during this period.
Playing against San Remo is almost a channel for low-level league players to get maximum exposure.
Viterbo's players also want to shine and heat up to see if they can be noticed by other teams. Not to mention the first step to enter Serie A and Serie B, it is good to stay at least to care about D.
So everyone played very enthusiastically today.
The blockade of Lu Yang is also particularly in place.
Who made Lu Yang the most famous one of the Saint Leigh now?
Stadium commentator: "Oh, we can see that Lu Yang seems to be in trouble today. Although the team's offense is relatively smooth, as long as he catches the ball, he will inevitably face double-teaming."
"Lu Yang and Moric are two types of players. Such double-teaming Moric can be easily done, but Lu Yang seems a little busy. Fortunately, he has good ball control and vision, and he can always pass the football to Moric or the defense before conceding the ball."
"But this invisibly destroyed the team's offense. This is why San Remo sorted out the midfield well today but it was difficult to get a very direct offensive opportunity."
"So far, the score is still one-to-zero. Vedian's forward in this game was not smooth, and he got two good opportunities but did not make a goal. The team's right midfielder and right forward were not particularly smooth. They seemed to be in poor form, which may be related to the hard-working fight in the last game."
"Lu Yang was not there in the last game, and the defensive pressure of the whole team of San Remo increased greatly, and their team has more older players, center, right forward, right midfielder, previous starting right center back, etc., all of them are more than 32 years old."
"The previous report of San Remo starting right center back was injured, and young player Najib served as the starter, which is why. Most San Remo players' physical strength and durability have reached their limit recently. If they are not dealt with properly, they may have injuries in the next game."
So far, San Remo has played a terrifying nine-game winning streak.
Even before nine consecutive wins, there were two consecutive draws, and before five consecutive wins!
They maintained an unbeaten record in the second half of the season.
But this also means that the players are exhausted.
Especially when they start to attack the upgrade zone, the challenges they face become stronger and stronger, and the players are getting more and more excited, and everyone performs better in every game.
But the body may not be able to eat it.
And a team like San Remo cannot have a perfect rotation lineup.
They have many positions and don't even have reliable substitutes.
It is often a substitute player who has multiple positions and can serve as a substitute rotation in multiple positions.
Now, physical strength has become an important factor in limiting Sanremo to go further.
Although he has already achieved a one-to-zero lead on the court, San Remo is not advantageous in the field.
"We have to get more goals to reduce the mental and defensive pressure of the whole team." Moric found Lu Yang.
He is very keen, and the team's right forward and right midfield are in very bad shape today.
Unlike Vedian's feet, the two people are a little... and kicking them together.
This means they are not very brave to exert force.
The reason why a person is often afraid to exert force is that it will feel uncomfortable in a certain position when exerting force. The pain cannot reach a severe level, but it will make people subconsciously exert force.
This is often a manifestation of initial injuries in certain parts.
Can't continue like this anymore.
Suotu's defensive tactics are indeed stable, but they require a lot of running.
The team obviously does not have the ability to run a lot now, so Moric decided to change the team's playing style privately.
But the reduction in running means an increase in defensive loopholes, which is likely to cause the team to lose the goal.
Therefore, the team's offensive personnel must first play with their advantages.
There are links here and you can't be confused at any step, otherwise you will do bad things if you are kind-hearted.
"I'll try." Lu Yang said, "They put a lot of pressure on me today, so you can find more opportunities to go ahead."
Molic nodded, too.
Soon, the opportunity arose.
In the 35th minute of the game, Lu Yang got the ball.
The opponent's midfielder blocked Lu Yang from close range, and rushed over from the side to double-team.
The player who blocked Lu Yang obviously studied Lu Yang, and he knew that Lu Yang did not have the ability to dribble and break through.
As long as you don’t get robbed, you won’t be shaken by Lu Yang’s favorite V-shaped ball.
This is the best way to defend Lu Yang. Today, I have been defending this successfully several times.
But this time, Lu Yang did not sit still and wait for death.
He pulled the football back with his right foot, rolled the football to the toe of his left foot, then picked the toe of his left foot, and the football flew up.
The opponent's defensive player's eyes lit up. This kind of mid-air ball is difficult to control. He can definitely grab the ball, and he will definitely win it!
Did Lu Yang make a mistake?
But just as the opponent's player was about to step forward, the football that was supposed to fly high hit Lu Yang's left leg knee, thus quickly landing and bounced forward.
It sounds long, but this action is actually just that moment.
After Lu Yang pulled the ball with his right foot, the football flew up and was hit by his left knee.
It's almost a second.
Why did Lu Yang's left knee move forward and hit the football?
Of course, it was because Lu Yang had to take a step on his left foot to prepare for a sprint.
In an instant, Lu Yang pushed the ground with his right foot and stepped out with his left foot. The man and the ball rushed over from the defensive player at the same time, like a yellow lightning bolt.
The commentator was stunned: "This is... a knee-bang ball! It is a cool street ball balling action, but it can also be used for breakthroughs, which is very sudden. It is just that in the official game, few people use this kind of fancy action."
"This action doesn't seem difficult to defend, but it is actually a difficult test for defenders. It can allow the football to move three times in a moment, the first time is to pull from the front to the back. The second time is to let the football fly from the ground to the air, and the third time is to let the football suddenly eject from the air to the front."
"In the three shifts of center of gravity in a short period of time, few defensive players can keep up. Even if the brain reacts, the body's center of gravity cannot react. In other words, the brain knows that this is a deception, but muscle memory will be unconsciously transferred. We can see Viterbo's defensive players stiffly in place, unable to move, and can only watch football and Lu Yang pass by him."
"This is the power of knee-throwing balls!"
After Lu Yang broke through the opponent's defense, he drove straight in, which was equivalent to breaking through two players in one breath, because there was another player who wanted to hit him.
As a last resort, the rest of Viterbo players rushed to Luyang.
Molic had a large open space and stepped forward to the top of the arc of the penalty area.
He had just arrived, and Lu Yang's direct pass had already arrived.
Another exquisite pass, passing through a defensive player's blockade.
Moric got the ball and scored a long shot.
San Remo 2 to zero, consolidating the advantage!
Taking advantage of the goal celebration, Moric found the team's right-hand player and asked them to keep playing next, with the preservation of physical strength and physical protection first.
The team's right forward and right midfielder changed slightly and nodded.
After that, San Remo's style of play also changed, and more balls were launched from the left, giving Verdian more opportunities to adjust his feeling under his feet.
"Why does the team's style of play seem to have changed?" Tom saw the team's changes. He was worried that Sotu would be angry because of this. No head coach liked his tactics to be tampered with by the players.
However, Sotu smiled and said, "This is what the brain does. As players on the court, they often detect some details more than us, just as we can see the space position on the court better than them."
"Moric is adjusting the team's playing style based on the team's player status. This is what a midfielder should really do. Our right-hand players may have some problems, the second half..."
After glanced at the bench, Sotu pursed his lips.
He actually didn't have much room to adjust in the second half.
The team's biggest achievement in the winter window was signing him. Because Sotu and the team chairman felt that this season had not been done, the biggest task was to relegate, Sotu did not ask for transfer funds and players.
The team's player inventory is therefore seriously insufficient.
If I had known that there would be hope for this season to be promoted, the team chairman would say in the winter window that he would buy some substitutes for Sotu.
Chapter completed!
