If you want to accomplish something, you must be able to pay the price.
Just like now.
If he was young, he must have felt that he was the hero of a novel. Dario Rossi should have been stupidly confused by his high position pressing, then made a mistake, and then he scored a goal, and then he held on firmly.
Counterattack, and then Lazio was eliminated by him.
Look, what a beautiful writing routine!
But this can only exist in novels.
The reality is that after winning 2-1 at home in the first round, Lazio had every reason to be mentally prepared to deal with Naples' opening press and pressure after understanding their opponent's technical and tactical characteristics.
Whether Rossi wants to attack or defend, he will have multiple plans.
This is called adequate preparation before the game.
then what should we do?
The answer is actually very simple, there is no possibility of opportunism, it is just to attack!
Press Lazio to grab, press Lazio to attack!
If it doesn't work in three minutes, then five minutes. If it doesn't work in five minutes, then ten minutes. If it doesn't work in ten minutes, keep pressing and keep attacking!
Attack until you score a goal!
Of course, what if during this process, Lazio launches a powerful counterattack and creates a threat to your goal?
Then you have to measure how determined you are to score goals.
If you feel that there is no need to take this risk for a goal, then retreat.
If you regard this goal as the key to your promotion and victory or defeat, then bravely persevere.
The profound choice is to persevere bravely!
Because he knew that if he couldn't grab this goal, Naples would definitely lose!
This is a big gamble.
Not only is it a huge gamble for oneself, but also for the team as a whole, and also for the players.
Before the game, Gao Shen talked with his players one by one. He repeatedly told them that this would be a game of willpower and determination. Whether it was the initial attack or later, it would be a competition of willpower.
Because Naples' physical fitness and physical condition are so bad.
It was so bad that Carlo felt that Naples' opening attack was too risky.
But Gao Shen still insisted on doing this despite all the opinions.
Because he was never willing to place his hopes on his opponents.
He likes to win on his own rather than waiting for his opponents to make mistakes.
That's his style!
…
Napoli still performed poorly.
There were many mistakes.
I still can't win half the ball, and I still can't fight through physical confrontation.
Everyone can see that Naples has been at a low point recently.
But this team, this group of players, still works hard on the court, just like when they played against AC Milan before.
This hard work allowed them to suppress Lazio on the pitch.
Although the Blue Eagles made two threatening counterattacks, Naples still did not retreat.
More than 50,000 fans in the Sao Paulo Stadium cheered for the team at the top of their lungs.
This is a hard fight.
Only by fighting hard can Naples advance!
And the more times like this, the more it tests the team's overall strength and mental strength.
It may be said that Gao Shen usually paints big cakes or pours chicken soup, but at least the Naples team he trained really satisfied him in terms of willpower and fighting spirit.
When the game reached the fourteenth minute, Lazio was already in chaos.
During a frontcourt press, Nainggolan successfully stole the ball from Ledesma and quickly passed it to Pellet in front.
The Italian center turned his back to the direction of attack and leaned against Lazio's centre-back. After stopping the ball with his back, he took a step back and suddenly passed the ball to the right side of the arc.
I saw Rakitic suddenly come in from behind and hit the cross ball with a direct kick.
This earth-shattering long-range shot was hit so suddenly that goalkeeper Muslera was a little stunned. He didn't even have time to save when he saw the ball hit the net.
One to zero!
Rakitic was so excited that he ran throughout the game and cheered to celebrate the goal.
Gao Shen was so excited on the sidelines that he almost rushed out of the command area, but quickly regained his composure, turned around, and signaled the team to switch to a defensive position.
In the opening wave of attacks, the players consumed a lot of energy. If they continued to press, their physical fitness might not be able to sustain the whole game.
keep?
Very conservative indeed.
The football field is a place that emphasizes strength. Only those with strength are qualified to fight for it. If they don't have strength, they have to give in.
If you don't have the strength and don't give in, there will only be one result.
Being taught how to be a good person by your opponent!
Gao Shen has already been taught by Inter Milan once, and he does not want to be taught by others again. He does not think that Rossi and Lazio are qualified to teach him how to behave.
So, he chose to keep it.
…
Rossi was so angry that he yelled and cursed on the spot.
No one knows, is he scolding his own players for making mistakes?
Or are you criticizing the conservative and sophisticated?
Anyway, he scolded him so much that he spit out his saliva.
But there is no way, no matter how much you scold, it can't change the fact that Lazio is lagging behind.
Two to two, Napoli won by an away goal.
But Rossi did not choose to counterattack on the spot, but played steadily and patiently waited for the opportunity.
Naples was also very stable, not in a hurry, and defended patiently.
Before the end of the first half, Lazio made a grab, but it failed to work.
During the halftime break, Gao Shen made direct substitutions and continued to strengthen defense.
This almost made Rossi collapse.
He finally understood now why Capello was so angry that he yelled at Gao Shen and conservative.
The most important thing is not that he is profound and conservative, but that he took advantage and ran away. This is so annoying!
There is one detail that reflects the situation in Naples, that is, in the 73rd minute, Pellet fell to the ground and suffered cramps.
Yes, after only 73 minutes, the Italian center suffered cramps.
Gao Shen replaced him with Mertens, leaving the third substitution available.
This makes one have to suspect that he is worried that his players will suffer from cramps.
After Mertens came on the field, Lazio launched a fierce attack from the 75th minute. Naples seized an opportunity and launched a threatening counterattack.
However, when the Belgian player received a cross from Valencia and almost faced an empty goal, he actually knocked the ball away.
Gao Shen looked at Mertens speechlessly, and really wanted to hit his head and say: Damn, Torres is possessed by the soul!
Empty people don’t enter the emperor!
In the end, Naples continued to hold on tenaciously.
Lazio was attacking almost desperately at the last moment of the game, but the Italian team's offense was really average. There were just a few tricks here and there, and there was really nothing too new.
As long as Naples makes no mistakes and patiently shrinks its defense, it will be difficult for Lazio to score.
In the end, with Rakitic's goal, Naples defeated Lazio 1-0 at home.
The total score was 2-2, but Naples scored an away goal and eliminated Lazio as they wished, advancing to the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup without any danger.
