Chapter 178: Disadvantage because of scoring a goal
Seventeenth minute.
Ronaldo once again made a passing attempt after receiving the ball, but this time the opponent rushed over and knocked him over.
The referee blew the whistle and gave Moreirense a free kick in the frontcourt.
However, after the opponent knocked Ronaldo over, he said: "Boy, this is not a circus. Stop your funny and ugly dance performance! You are like a monkey jumping up and down!"

"What did you say?" Ronaldo stood up.
"What? Are you here to fight?" The other party puffed up his chest.
He is taller and stronger than Cristiano Ronaldo. He has a full beard and you can tell from a glance that he is not easy to mess with.
Ronaldo was a little frightened and didn't say anything.
Fortunately, his teammates rushed over immediately and helped Ronaldo out.
He is still just a fifteen-year-old kid who has entered the professional arena rashly and has encountered all dimensionality reduction attacks. He will be a little at a loss for a while.
This is not timidity, this is unfamiliarity.
If something like this happens in a youth training game, even if the opponent is stronger than Ronaldo, Ronaldo will fight back or even fight with the opponent because he knows what to do in that environment.
This is just like how many boys in their twenties who have just left school will habitually call out "Hello, aunt" when they see women in the workplace, office women, or female staff in their thirties.
It was obviously meant to be polite, but it actually became an offense to the latter.
The main reason is that I'm not used to calling people sister, not that I really don't know how to call me sister.
After this conflict, Ronaldo's breakthroughs decreased, and he began to pass more back, causing the team to reach a deadlock on the left.
Ronaldo felt like he didn't know how he should play.
Deng Kai saw Ronaldo's confusion, so he began to shift the football to the right and change the focus of the attack.
Thirty-one minutes.
After Deng Kai received Flavio's return pass from the right, he suddenly passed the ball and sent the ball deep.
Alex, the right back who was about to get in, ran away, using his speed to overtake the opponent's left back and successfully catch the ball.
Alex dunked and pushed, and after a slight shake, he made a direct pass.
The action was not sophisticated, but the opponent was stunned.
The football drew an arc and flew into the penalty area.
boom!
Anderson beat the opponent's center back and scored with a header.
"Goal! Anderson! Beautiful header!"
"I didn't expect Alex to have this cross. He didn't show this in the first half of the season."
"Deng Kai's lob pass was very big, giving Alex enough space to sprint. Did they discuss this before? It was difficult for anyone else to catch the ball except Alex, at least Fra
Vio can’t.”
"If Moreirens can get three points today, then they will go from last to third. Because the other two players who are last have already lost."
Deng Kai thought everything would get better after scoring the goal.
Because the momentum has increased and the intensity has increased unconsciously, it is not difficult to score goals again.
However, this team Moreirens was different from the team Deng Kai had played in before. After scoring the goal, the whole team became very unified and "negative".
How should I put it? It's the kind of situation where the whole team retreats.
This must be the tactical arrangement of the previous head coach.
But this arrangement is obviously wrong.
Because there are skills in retreating from defense.
As mentioned in "Arteta's Tactical Whiteboard", the focus of positional defense is not positioning, but defense.
Defend is a verb.
When you defend the opponent, you have to take the initiative.
Pressure the opponent and compress the opponent's ball-holding space and reaction time.
But what about Moreirence?
Their players' understanding of retreating is to stay close to the penalty area line and not give the opponent any room to break through.
At the same time, prepare to challenge the opponent's cross from the wing.
But can't you just let them cross? At least you can't cross so easily, right?
These things are difficult to detect in normal training, but when they are discovered during the game, it is too late.
Ten minutes after Moreirens scored, Penafiel launched a violent attack. The number of attacks in just ten minutes exceeded the total number of attacks by both sides in the previous thirty minutes.
Did Penafiel suddenly become stronger?
Deng Kai's kick was so frustrating.
How is this different from the Manchester United of the future?
Can't that shitty Manchester United team score goals?
You can get in, and you're always ahead.
Can't you take the lead?
If you can lead, you will always lead.
But they always get equalized and overtaken.
Why?
Because they felt more uncomfortable after scoring a goal than losing the ball. All members retreated and did not defend themselves. It was as if others could not attack, so they took the initiative to help others attack.
In this case, he almost took the initiative to break his own front line and midfield line, completely exposing his own defense to the opponent and allowing the opponent to destroy it.
Such a back line of defense will naturally be full of loopholes.
If you let four of the world's number one center backs, they will all be beaten into pieces.
"No, you can't play like this. You go to the front." Deng Kai told Ronaldo to go back to the front and don't come back.
Because the team's center Anderson and right winger Flavio are both back.
The team's own structure is completely compressed by the opponent, losing its sense of hierarchy. Any pass from the opponent can penetrate the entire team.
So Ronaldo stepped forward.
There were some boos around.
Because everyone is returning to defense, but you, Ronaldo, are the only one who does not replay. Do you think you are Ronaldo?
But fortunately, Ronaldo's character is never afraid of others' doubts. Since Kai asked him to come up, it must be reasonable.
Forty-two minutes.
Fonte made a key interception. If he could not block the ball, there would be two Penafiel players behind him waiting to hit the goal from the penalty spot.
Cardo will definitely collapse there.
boom!
Fonte plays the ball to Deng Kai.
boom!
Deng Kai half-turned and volleyed directly without even looking.
The pace of the game suddenly increased.
If the normal rhythm of the game starts with defense, it usually involves retreating, fierce defense, fighting for the ball, clearing, controlling the ball, waiting for teammates to move, penetration and advancement, key passes for the offense...
But Deng Kai's fight for the ball suddenly turned into a key pass for the offense.
Too many steps are omitted.
This is the role of the offensive and defensive transition metronome.
It is also the effect of Ding Ding's stream of consciousness passing that supports Deng Kai to do this.
"ah!"
After Deng Kai passed the ball, he was knocked down by the opponent's No. 8 player.
It can be seen that the opponent planned to knock down Deng Kai from the beginning and did not give Deng Kai a chance to organize an attack.
But the opponent was obviously a step slower, or Deng Kai was obviously too fast.
The referee made a gesture that was favorable to the offense.
Because in the frontcourt, Ronaldo was running wildly.
Penafiel was too close, and within three seconds of Ronaldo starting, he was the only one left.
The ball was too far away, and the Penafiel goalkeeper could not attack. He could only watch Ronaldo receiving the ball and continuing to rush toward him.
After Ronaldo entered the penalty area, the Penafiel goalkeeper started to try to cause trouble for Ronaldo.
But Cristiano Ronaldo was in a very stable state. He moved horizontally to widen the angle and then succeeded in a low shot.
