Li Ang's request for Sporting Gijon's counterattack can be compared with an analogy.
It's like a compressed spring that suddenly pops out!
Extremely fast!
This speed refers to the speed of passing the ball and refers to the speed of advancement.
Marcos stole the ball and went directly to Miguel Cobas, who quickly found the ball path and passed it directly to Javier Blanco. The youngster used his skills and speed to drive the ball forward.
At the same time, Miguel Cobas after passing the football, Juan Carlos in the midfield, and Matt Bilic and McGuer Pihra on the front line are all working hard.
Push forward!
Among these players, the division of labor is clear.
Javier Blanco, who is dribbling the ball, can choose to break through the bottom, or he can seek cooperation with Miguel Cobas. The two of them are very close to each other. They are the two corners of the triangle, followed closely behind.
That corner is Juan Carlos. His task is to rush forward immediately to prevent or delay the opponent's counterattack once the pass is misplaced or the ball is intercepted.
As for Matt Bilic and McGuer Pihra, they are two daggers inserted into the opponent's penalty area. If Juan Mata had not missed the game, Mata would have replaced Bilic or Maigu on the court.
With one of you, this dagger will be sharper.
This is the attack that Li Ang most wants to see.
"It's coming! It's coming!" Spearson shouted, "This is Sporting Gijon's counterattack! It's very fast and very sharp!"
The gold medal commentator was deeply impressed by such counterattack routines. In the match between Sporting Gijon and Alaves, the 'powerful' Alaves was stabbed three times in this way and was immediately killed.
Salamanca's head coach Charles stood up suddenly and became nervous. He had carefully studied the game between Sporting Gijon and Alaves and was familiar with this scene.
"Stop him!" Charles shouted, pointing at Javier Blanco who was dribbling the ball. This man is the key. As long as he stops his dribbling and blocks the passing route, this time can be stopped.
The opponent's counterattack this time.
Salamanca's defense is relatively negative. The negative does not mean that they do not work hard. It means that when defending, they are used to retreating to the penalty area line and setting up a defensive formation. As a result, their defense lacks depth and it is easy to
Being penetrated. In fact, this is also a common problem of most Spanish teams. Their football style and national characteristics determine that they prefer offense and ignore defense.
This time too, Salamanca kept retreating, and their purpose was to tighten the defense near the penalty area.
The result of this was that Salamanca's players followed the coach's instructions to intercept Javier Blanco, and when they successfully knocked down Javier with a tactical foul, they were already relatively close to their own penalty area.
However, because the foul location was close to the sideline, it was difficult for the opponent to take a direct free kick. This seemed to be a good defense.
Salamanca head coach Charles applauded, expressing his satisfaction that the team's midfielder Ingoix's tactical foul prevented Javier Blanco's breakthrough.
Not far away on his left, his Chinese counterpart was also very excited. Li Ang clenched his fists hard and secretly cheered.
***********
"A successful defense!" Elstor praised Salamanca's defense. "Once Sporting Gijon's counterattack routine is thoroughly studied, if they don't have the speed to counterattack, they will have nothing good to do."
Spielson didn't say anything. He just felt confused. Javier Blanco, who was dribbling the ball just now, had full time to pass the ball to Miguel Cobas, who came over to meet him. However, he still insisted on dribbling the ball himself. In the end, he was defeated by the opponent's tactics.
Foul stop.
However, Miguel Cobas, the captain of Sporting Gijon, did not go up to criticize the little guy who was "too independent" with the ball. Instead, he went up and patted Javier Blanco on the shoulder affectionately.
On the sidelines, Sporting Gijon's head coach Li Ang was not at all angry because a counterattack was blocked. He just stood on the sidelines, looking very quiet.
The camera gave a close-up of Li Ang. The head coach of Sporting Gijon looked calm and looked at the court with focused eyes. He was very quiet!
Spearson felt something was wrong even more, it was too quiet, too calm!
What could be behind the calm ocean?!
"Well done!" In the president's box in the stands, Salamanca president Hidalgo applauded his team for preventing Sporting Gijon's counterattack. The president didn't know anything. Of course he saw that just now
Sporting Gijon's counterattack was threatening, but fortunately, its own player's successful tactical foul prevented the opponent's sharp counterattack.
Old Arango didn't say anything, but looked at the chairman of the home team angrily.
***********
Sporting Gijon's set kick is located outside the top of the penalty area and close to the sideline on the right side.
The team's captain Miguel Cobas stood at the penalty spot. He is the team's first set-kick taker.
In the penalty area, Matt Bilic seemed very active, constantly crossing and raising his hands at the same time, which meant that the ball was heading towards his head.
McGur Pihra, on the other hand, seemed very quiet. The 35-year-old veteran stood in the penalty area and said nothing.
Salamanca goalkeeper Balbuna directs the team's defense.
"Watch that guy!" he shouted, pointing at Matt Bilic. This man's header is very threatening. There have been two very threatening headers in today's game, one is
Heading the goal, one header was passed to Ruben, which shows that this person's header level is good.
Salamanca center back Rodriguez immediately approached Matt Bilic, and the two competed for position and even pushed each other.
The referee had to blow the whistle and severely warned the two people.
At this time, Sporting Gijon's central defender Yago also ran up, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the Salamanca people. This Sporting Gijon defender has good header ability and he is a dangerous person.
Salamanca's goalkeeper Balbuna almost didn't hesitate and shouted, "Omar, go see that big man!"
He arranged for the team's other central defender to guard the tall and powerful Yago.
As for Sporting Gijon’s other striker Meguir Pihra?
Balbuna glanced at the veteran. He was a little hesitant. The old guy just scored a header of his own. However, there were too many accidental factors in that header. Omar was too careless to defend this person. Otherwise,
, how could such an old guy hit the football? Yes, who could reach this amateur player first and score a goal? Therefore, our side conceded the goal completely due to carelessness.
However, considering that McGure Pihra did score a goal, he couldn't ignore it completely, so Balbuna directed the team's full-back Lederro to defend McGure Pihra.
"Redrow, I'll give you an easy job." Balbuna pulled Redrow over and said, "Go and live with that old guy."
"Don't worry! Leave it to me!" Redrow nodded. He glanced at McGuer Pihra. The old guy came on and you were lucky. This time, you were not so lucky.
Redrow was very relaxed, he didn't think this veteran would pose a threat to him at all.
In the penalty area, Yago also pushed and shoved Omar, who was guarding him. The referee just gave them a severe warning.
Juan Carlos, who rushed into the penalty area, also had an argument with Thomas, who was guarding him.
Juan Carlos's shortcoming is heading the ball, but the people of Salamanca don't know it. Looking at Carlos' height, people feel that this is a boy who is good at heading the ball... So, Carlos
This side also attracted Salamanca's key defensive attention.
Salamanca goalkeeper Balbuna's eyes swept back and forth between Matt Bilic, Yago, and Juan Carlos. He wanted to judge which of these three people would be the right one.
The one who actually heads the ball.
The chaos caused by pushing and quarreling in the penalty area was stopped by the referee's stern warning.
The referee returned to the penalty area, walked backwards, and looked at the penalty area with stern eyes. This means, be honest, my eyes are looking at you guys!
***********
Li Ang stood on the sidelines and watched with cold eyes. He saw the chaos in the penalty area.
Li Ang's expression was calm, but his heart was full of tension and expectation. He arranged for Carlos and Yago to go up, in order to confuse Salamanca's defensive attention.
Matt Bilic keeps raising his hand.
Yago is tall and powerful and has a good header.
Carlos creates chaos in the penalty area and looks like a good header.
Li Ang didn't believe it. With these three people performing various tricks in the restricted area, the people of Salamanca would not be fooled.
Finally, the referee blew his whistle.
Sporting Gijon captain Miguel Cobas took a run and then hit the middle and lower part of the football with his right foot.
The football flew up and flew towards the penalty area in a beautiful arc.
Almost at the same time, Matt Bilic, Yago and Juan Carlos began to fight desperately with the defenders around them, seeming to make a move to jump up and header the ball.
In fact, that's exactly what they did.
All three people jumped up, which prompted the players from Salamanca who were defending them to also jump up.
Salamanca goalkeeper Balbuna felt that all he saw were big men jumping up: Of these three guys, which one headed the ball?!
At this time, the first person who felt something was wrong was Redrow, who saw the football flying directly towards his head.
This is?!
He immediately understood that this was a pass to the old guy next to him!
Out of the defender's awareness, Redrow immediately prepared to jump up. He was very confident that he could push the football out before the 'amateur player'.
However, as soon as he jumped up, he felt the shadow above his head, and he even felt the heavy breathing on his head.
Before he could fully understand what was going on, the shadow above his head expanded.
McGuire Pihra jumped very well and was a head taller than Ledero who was guarding him!
Seeing this opponent who was completely suppressed by him!
This feels so good!
He smashed his head down hard and successfully hit the football flying in the air.
The football flies towards the goal!
Salamanca goalkeeper Balbuna did not react at all to the ball. He was almost frightened and watched the ball fly with great force. It passed by the left side of his cheek and continued towards the goal.
fly.
***********
After completing the header, McGuer Pihra and Redrow collided heavily, and the two landed together. Redrow, who was suppressed underneath him, was obviously unprepared and fell to the ground.
When Redrow fell on his back in the turf, he saw the red and white figure rushing out of his sight with open arms.
The thirty-five-year-old veteran did not cry this time. When he landed, he saw the football in the goal. He opened his arms and started running. He started to run wildly. He kept raising his arms and shouting from his mouth... and rushed straight to the coach.

Boss, this ball is dedicated to you!
