Chapter 109 Tactics to lead the future football storm!
Li Ang wrote a Spanish term on the tactical board: high position press!
"Press high!" Li Ang said, "In the game against Rayo Vallecano, the most important thing I ask of you is to press high!"
"You should still have an impression of the first half of the game against Orlens," Li Ang asked.
Everyone nodded.
"In the first half of that game, we used pressing to press Orlens' space, but they were unable to organize an effective offense at all. Why?"
"Because their offense was cut off by us! Facing our high-post press, they panicked and were exhausted."
Everyone nodded. That was indeed the case in that game. Faced with Sporting Gijon's pressing, Orlens was completely unable to attack effectively.
Fernandez and Parler looked at each other and nodded. The high press can indeed suppress the opponent's attack. If Rayo Vallecano is not prepared enough, he is very likely to be entangled in Sporting Gijon's tactics.
Li Ang seems to favor the high-pressing tactic. When he was in Real Madrid, he adopted this tactic and successfully restricted Barcelona's 87th generation, which also restricted Messi to a certain extent.
Therefore, neither these players from Sporting Gijon nor Mata, who came from Real Madrid, are familiar with this tactic.
Of course, Yang Fan is not the original creator of the high-pressing tactic. High-pressing is a tactical principle in the total attack and total defense concept of Michels, a generational tactical master of Dutch football, that is, the height of the team's formation is pressed into the opponent's half to concede the ball.
Afterwards, there is a collective high-position counterattack on the spot, relying on the players' running awareness and physical strength to cut the opponent's passing route, complete the counterattack for the ball, and use the counterattack to defend, thereby realizing the monopoly of the ball and offensive opportunities.
This tactic has high requirements on the players' tactical execution ability. Players must fully comply with the coach's tactical arrangements and press the opponent! They need to run, intercept and put pressure on the opponent without hesitation.
Therefore, high-position pressing tactics require a lot of players' physical fitness. Without physical support, high-position pressing tactics are prone to bad things. Some teams also use high-position pressing tactics. In the beginning and middle stages of the game, it may be okay.
However, seventy minutes after one o'clock, the players' physical fitness begins to decline, and the tactics are not implemented properly, which will easily cause problems, and the opponent may take the opportunity to hit the head!
Li Ang has always attached great importance to physical training during this period. At his request, assistant coach Parler was responsible for the players' physical training.
However, high-position pressing is to contain the opponent's offense. Generally speaking, it is still part of the defensive tactics. If it were before, facing a strong enemy like Rayo Vallecano, Sporting Gijon would adopt such tactics to try to contain the opponent.
This tactic is appropriate to prevent the opponent from scoring goals.
However, under the current circumstances, Sporting Gijon's goal is to beat Rayo Vallecano by more than three goals. Just relying on not conceding goals is not enough. The focus is still on offense!
Only by attacking can you score goals!
***********
Among the players, some players with high football intelligence also realized this. Mata was one of them. He looked at the coach.
Li Ang nodded secretly, he was indeed a player he valued.
Turning around, Li Ang added another prefix in front of the high-position press.
new!
Read together, it is: New high position pressing!
"The opponent's ball-carrying player is here!" Li Ang drew a circle on the tactical board, which represented the opponent's ball-carrying player.
Li Ang then drew another triangle, a triangle, representing his three players.
"Note, what I have always emphasized is that two or three players should be used to press the opponent's ball-carrying player." Li Ang said, "What does this mean?"
"We have a greater chance of succeeding in stealing the ball." It was Juan Carlos who spoke.
Li Ang glanced at this kid and secretly praised him. He is indeed a guy with a high attribute of [grabbing the ball]. When it comes to pressing, he is very energetic.
"That's right." Li Ang nodded, "What about after stealing the ball?"
"Launch a quick counterattack," Javier Blanco said.
"How to counterattack? How to advance? How to attack?" Li Ang asked.
The players shook their heads, they didn't know. This is why the head coach is so important. The talent and strength of the players are very important for the game. However, an excellent head coach, a great coach, directs the players to play and tells them.
How they play can bring out their maximum energy. The head coach is the captain and the players are the crew. This metaphor is very appropriate.
Li Ang pointed at the triangle he drew.
"This is our weapon to fight back!"
"The player who just stole the ball was the initiator of the counterattack, so who are the teammates closest to him? They are the other two!"
Li Ang began to instill his tactics into the players.
I see some players who seem to understand but not understand.
"I don't require you to fully understand it now," Li Ang said, "but everyone must remember that they must do what I ask! Whatever I say, you will do it!"
Everyone nodded.
Some smart people understand a little bit, and some people with poor comprehension ability don't understand why they do this, and they don't understand the benefits of this triangle position.
But, as the coach said, it’s okay if you don’t understand, just implement it resolutely!
***********
Seeing Li Ang instructing the players on tactics, his two assistants Fernandez and Parler were also thoughtful.
They are coaches. Although their qualifications are mediocre, it is impossible to expect them to formulate tactics and innovate tactics.
However, when Li Ang explained this tactic, they might not understand it at first, but if they think about it carefully, they can still understand it.
Moreover, they see it more thoroughly than the players and understand the exquisite requirements of this triangle position.
After stealing the ball and starting a counterattack on the spot, the triangle position just pressed can immediately form an offensive triangle position.
This is wonderful.
"If there is a passing triangle around the ball-carrying player, it means that he has two receiving players to pass the ball to. If there are more passing triangles, it means that there are more receiving players around him." Fernandez and Parler.
During the discussion, he said, praising Li Ang in his tone.
"Not only that, the triangle can be extended. When a player receives the ball, other teammates need to quickly approach to form another triangle. This way, when the opponent's defensive players press forward, there will be many
With one passing option, the possibility of conceding the ball is reduced," Parler added.
Both people's eyes lit up.
This is simply a matter of advancing, attacking, retreating or defending!
When counterattacking like this, the counterattack speed will be accelerated. Not only will the chance of losing the ball be reduced when guarding against the opponent's counterattack, but also, because in a small range, there are three of our own players, two to three, or more.
If multiple players advance together, with three passes and two kicks, they can quickly penetrate into the opponent's hinterland, creating murderous intent, attack and even scoring opportunities.
Looking at Li Ang standing there explaining tactics to the players, serious and eloquent.
The two middle-aged coaches expressed emotion.
This Chinese colleague is indeed very talented.
It is indeed much higher than their level, and they can’t help but admire it.
Not only do they admire him a lot, but looking at the reaction of the players, the players also admire and respect the head coach more and more. Each one of them is extremely serious. They look like primary school students in class.
Neither the players nor the two assistant coaches knew how much impact the tactics they heard and were taught at this time would have on football tactics.
This is a tactic that is ahead of the current football world.
This is a sublimation of existing football tactics to a certain extent.
A football tactic that caused a football storm.
Just like that, on an ordinary day in 2004, I appeared in the locker room of the b team at the Maleo training base in Gijon.
And they are also fortunate to be included in history with the proposer and creator of this new tactic - their head coach Li Ang, and the tactic he proposed and formulated!
An ordinary day, but the future is destined to be recorded in history.
ps: Guaranteed 2 updates.
Tomorrow we will update chapters for Hesitation and Udon Leader!
I'm holding my ultimate move here.
It's Friday, welcome to the weekend, and give everyone some explosive benefits.
