When the game restarted, the Cordoba players were still unconvinced and planned to quickly equalize the score after losing the ball.
But they attacked hard for a while and still couldn't score.
On the contrary, it confirmed one thing - Getafe was able to defend their attack for more than 20 minutes, and it was definitely not luck!
First of all, their defensive tactics are very good and reasonable. The players are well positioned and have a strong awareness of mutual defense. This is the most obvious.
Why is it now said that Spanish teams are not good at defense? In fact, Spain has many excellent defenders.
Because Spanish football defense relies on the players' own abilities rather than overall tactics. In terms of research on defensive tactics, Spanish football is definitely not as good as Italian football.
So many times when watching La Liga games, even if it is a wealthy team, their defense is a bit like fighting alone.
You will find that the attacking team can easily find space.
And when you play against an Italian team, it's difficult to control the ball comfortably from a distance of thirty meters. Italian football's defense is oppressive, and the whole field is filled with their defensive aura.
This is both a tactical requirement and an instinct ingrained into the bones of Italian players.
Spanish players lack this instinct.
This difference has led to the phenomenon that Spanish football is not good at defense.
In fact, Spanish players are not weak defensively, especially in terms of ferocity. They may far surpass Italy and be comparable to the Premier League.
Many offensive players may not be injured when playing in Italy, or even if they are injured, they are minor injuries. However, if they are injured in Spain, they are basically serious injuries.
In comparison, Serie A emphasizes defense, so frontcourt players are unlikely to get much space to perform, and the possibility of injury is greatly reduced.
There is another example of the tough defense of Spanish players. That is the style of the Spanish national team in previous years.
Since the 1980s, Spanish football has produced a number of iron-blooded players, represented by Juanito.
So these players are very strong defensively.
It's just that style is like fashion, it gradually changes over time. In the past few years, everyone admired iron-bloodedness, but in recent years, iron-bloodedness has become worthless in everyone's eyes.
The failure of the Spanish national team in the World Cup in France led to Clemente's dismissal and the iron-blooded football he emphasized lost its market in Spain.
Except for the teams in the Basque Country, most teams play gorgeous and beautiful offensive football and like to show off their outstanding skills. Physical confrontation is no longer popular.
But I didn’t expect that Getafe, located in the capital region, is still playing this kind of football, and even worse!
Cordoba's players are on the front line of the battle against Getafe, and their feelings are clearest and most obvious - during physical confrontation. They can clearly feel that they are no match for Getafe's players.
Even the young central defender Jose Passarella, who looks a little thinner, is unambiguous in confrontation. Regardless of his body, at least he dares to step forward and engage in physical confrontation. Just this momentum.
, is enough to scare other players.
And Getafe's physical confrontation success rate is indeed higher than theirs.
For some balls, their success rate may be higher, but in the end it was the opponent who grabbed the ball.
The physical confrontation is not as good as the opponent's, and it is more difficult to score goals. If the opponent makes a reasonable collision, the ball will change hands. They have to fight back to defend, so how can they worry about attacking?
※※※
Of course Chang Sheng saw the results of this physical confrontation off the court.
He knows that this is the result of two aspects. On the one hand, it is naturally the result of his emphasizing the importance of physical confrontation in training and hard training of physical strength.
On the other hand, it is the effect of his competition skill [Iron Man].
The league has just started, and the team is full of energy. There is no need for skills like [Unable to Run to Death], [Sharp Counterattack] and [Tenacious Fighting Spirit] are not indispensable, because to see the face, [Tough Fighting Spirit] requires your team to be in a good position.
It can only work when you are behind. Could it be that the tactics you designed are for falling behind? Sharp counterattack can only be used against strong teams, and is not very useful against equal opponents. And [Sharp counterattack] is useful, but not that useful.
, but [Iron Man] can play a role in every time period of the entire game, so Chang Sheng chose to use [Iron Man] as a competition skill without hesitation.
Looking at it now, it has achieved good results.
※※※
Córdoba was unable to break Getafe's goal until the end of the first half.
The same was true in the second half, with Getafe shrinking its defense and then allowing Córdoba to attack.
Then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
There is nothing secret about the winning tactics, nothing new at all, it is just a regular defensive counterattack.
But it was such a prosaic tactic that became the life-threatening talisman for the people of Cordoba.
As they desperately tried to attack and open Getafe's goal, they no longer cared about the space behind them.
In the 73rd minute, their goal was lost again.
It was not Charisteas who scored this time, but Charisteas still made a significant contribution - his header was saved by Cordoba goalkeeper Jose Ramon, and then followed
Mista appeared at the landing point of the football, and then made a follow-up shot to put the football into the goal.
"Mista!!goooooooooooooooooooool! This is Getafe's second goal! They will definitely win!!"
"In this game, two new players who joined the team each scored a goal. For them, there may be no better debut than this!"
※※※
There was again jubilation and various celebrations in front of Getafe's coaching bench.
He is also very happy to win often. As a coach who became a monk halfway, he has a special sense of accomplishment when he sees his tactics turned from paper into reality by the players, and they are really effective.
Although I can't play football in person, I can direct them to realize my ideas!
The goal just now was the reason why he let Mista.
Because Mista's [running without the ball] is as high as 80, he can appear where he is needed most!
[Movement without the ball] was not very recognized before. Masters of movement without the ball like Inzaghi were still contemptuously called "leaks" at this time. They thought that scoring goals was too common. Completely
It cannot reflect the player's ability.
In the eyes of many people, only those who ride alone like Ronaldo are forwards. Inzaghi is not even worthy of carrying Ronaldo's shoes.
But as a person who traveled through time in later generations, Chang Sheng knows the power of [running without the ball].
There is no doubt that this attribute of a great shooter must be very high. Even for a forward like Ronaldo, his movement without the ball is also very high.
Mista's fame in football is due to his running without the ball.
There is no suspense about the outcome of this game. Chang Sheng thinks more about this strategy.
This game proved that this tactic is effective.
However, Cordoba is not very strong, so it is not a real test.
He hasn't met a strong team yet.
So now is not the time to be happy.
Chang Sheng quickly recovered from the joy of winning the first victory of the new season.
※※※
In the final game, Getafe defeated Córdoba 2:0 at home and got a good start to the new season.
This result was something many people never expected before the game.
Maybe they thought Getafe would win, but they didn't expect it to be so easy. Cordoba surrendered without any resistance.
Is this really the same Getafe that struggled to avoid relegation last season? If Getafe played like this last season, would they still have to use their last efforts to avoid relegation?
However, reporters are not willing to admit defeat.
They believed that the result of this game could not explain anything. It might be that Getafe had better luck.
And the winning defensive counterattack is simply an ugly tactic!
With such a tactic, even if you win, what's there to be happy about?
They looked at the jubilant Getafe fans in the stands around them and thought that you are just trying to be fresh. It won't be long before you are tired of this kind of football!
Football is meant to bring people happiness. How can such ugly football be happy?
Are you really happy watching such a match?
These reporters have already thought about what they will say after the game.
The main role of the media is to guide public opinion and manipulate public opinion.
As long as they all say this, then the whole of Spain will think that the football played by Getafe is ugly, and in turn, the fans of Getafe will be impressed, so that the fans of Getafe will also think that the football they play is ugly.
The tactics are ugly.
When Chang Sheng loses the support of fans, what else does he have?
※※※
After interviewing players from both sides in the mixed zone, the reporters came to the press hall.
The first person to come out of the post-match press conference was the visiting team's head coach Jose Tomas Escalante.
He was unconvinced about losing the game.
"Yes, we lost to them. But it was because we were not well prepared before the game... I thought they would stick to the attack - isn't this the style of football they are used to before? I didn't expect they would continue to defend and counterattack... Honestly
Say, I don’t like this approach at all, where everyone retreats to defend in the second half and leaves a center in front, and I don’t think this represents the future development direction of football!”
When the reporters heard what he said, they all showed knowing smiles - they had been looking for a reason to criticize Getafe's tactics.
Well now, Cordoba's head coach has given them the best reason.
They only need to play on the words of the Cordoba coach and they can use them to criticize Chang Sheng!
After finishing his part, Jose Tomas Escalante left.
Then the reporters thought the press conference was over - it was like this in the last few league rounds last season, so they all formed a habit.
But at this moment, Getafe Club’s press officer Alberto Garcia said: “We’d like to invite the Getafe coach…”
So the reporters who were about to leave fell back on their chairs.
Getafe actually have to attend the post-match press conference?
Will the head coach Chang Sheng come in person this time? That’s just right, we have a lot of questions to ask him...
However, these reporters were disappointed. The person who came out was not Chang Sheng or assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez, but... Manuel Garcia!
Coach Manuel Garcia sat down and looked down.
This time he was no longer as nervous as the first time he faced them.
He sat calmly in his seat, waiting for reporters to ask questions.
Alberto Garcia spoke again: "Does anyone want to leave? If you want to leave, please feel free to leave. I will give everyone a minute. If no one leaves, then we will continue."
A group of reporters looked at each other.
Last season, Manuel Garcia also attended the pre-match press conference. The reporters who felt insulted stood up and left the field in protest.
The result of the protest was that they were all blocked...
Chang Sheng has been blocking them mercilessly until now.
Unexpectedly, it was Manuel Garcia who came out again this time.
So are they leaving?
"Marca" reporter Xavi Passos Rosales snorted and stood up from his chair.
He is a reporter for Marca, the most widely circulated professional sports newspaper in Spain. How can he tolerate such a naked provocation?
Anyway, in the last few league rounds of last season, Getafe did not attend press conferences. Everyone is used to it, so what’s the big deal?
After the proud Marca reporter finished humming, he walked out of the press conference hall with his head held high without even looking at the two people on the stage.
Seeing him get up and leave, the other reporters obviously hesitated, and then three more reporters got up and left.
Then no one moved their butts anymore.
One minute was up, and there were more than 20 reporters remaining in the press hall.
Alberto Garcia smiled and said: "Very good, I think we can start. But before we start, I want to convey the words of Getafe coach Chang Sheng: Anyone who stays can be interviewed normally.
For Getafe, you can participate in the team's regular weekly press conference. For those who leave, we will continue to block them! Now, you can ask questions."

After Harvey Passos walked out of the press hall, he looked back and found that there were only three people following him.
One of them is his photojournalist.
Most people stayed inside.
His face turned ugly.
"Damn...a bunch of cowards!"
he cursed.
But the door was closed, and the people inside could no longer hear his voice.
And he could foresee that this was a split, which meant that the previously unbreakable journalists' alliance was disintegrating and falling apart.
After several months of Chang Sheng’s tough censorship, the reporters finally couldn’t stand it anymore.
More of them succumbed to the power of this "tyrant"!
Xavi Passos feels like he hates that iron cannot become steel - he believes that as long as everyone works together and perseveres, Getafe and the damn Chinese will always bow to them!
But now, we are the first to bow to them!
When has the dignity of journalists been so humiliated?
Harvey Passo suddenly felt that a group of cowards and weaklings were not enough to achieve anything, and they had to rely on themselves.
So he stamped his feet, turned around and left. He just wanted to leave this place where he felt humiliated several times.
He felt that Chang Sheng, a Chinese, might still lack a correct understanding of "Marca". Did he think "Marca" was the kind of tabloid that was distributed for free in subway stations?
Humiliate "Maka"? Then be prepared to die without a burial place!
