Chapter 61 Coach Carter’s final tactical intention!
Faced with the insulting boos and gestures from the Manchester students, the starting players of the Bucks Steel Horns not only did not feel aggrieved this time, but were full of fighting spirit.
Their passion has been completely ignited by Coach Carter's pre-match training.
The "cheerleader" drummer next to the away team's bench was also beating the drum hard to cheer.
The drummer is not on the roster for the game, but as the team's assistant, he can also be on the bench.
The positions of the home and away teams' benches are fixed and do not need to be changed as sides change.
Next to the home team's bench, a big red pirate flag hangs.
The seats on the home team's bench are also sponge seats, and there is a canopy above the seats to protect them from the sun and rain.
The foam of the seats on the away team's bench had long been torn apart by a knife, leaving only a creaking hard bench.
As for the ceiling above, it has long been without glass.
But these things no longer matter to the Bucks Steel Horns, but instead stimulate their fighting spirit even more.
The Manchester Pirates team is indeed very strong, so if you can get even 1 point from them, it is a huge victory!
"Gu——"
Coach Carter, who was already sitting on the away team's bench, waved to Gu Ran, "Come here and sit next to me."
"Yes, coach." Gu Ran sat down directly next to Carter without any hesitation.
Carter asked calmly: "When you were in the locker room, you seemed to have something to say?"
Gu Ran quickly said: "No, coach."
At this time, you must not question your head coach's formation.
Although Gu Ran has 12 years of experience ahead of him, this does not mean that Gu Ran can coach a school team coach with more than 40 years of football experience.
What's more, if it was really about "guiding" tactics, Carter would definitely wonder how he, Gu Ran, knew so much.
Carter said calmly: "The first half of this game is very critical. I want you to carefully read our opponent's formation movements and key movements every time they attack."
"Yes, coach." Gu Ran nodded quickly.
At this time, all the starting players of both teams entered the stadium.
The home team Manchester Pirates lined up in a row and stood on the left hand side of the three referees, and the visiting team Bucks Steelhorns also lined up in a row and stood on the right hand side of the three referees.
According to the rules, teams playing away from home should take the initiative to shake hands with the referee team and the home team.
The Corsair players looked arrogant, while the Bucks Steel Horns players were murderous!
Neither side is convinced by the other!
After the two sides shook hands, the captains of the two teams walked up to the referee and began to pick sides by guessing coins.
Bread, the captain of the Bucks Steel Horns, guessed right or wrong and got the priority to pick the side.
And the Pirates team naturally got the priority to kick off the first half.
After picking their positions, players from both sides come to their respective half-court positions.
At 3 o'clock sharp, as the referee blew his whistle, the Southampton Bucks Steel Horns' away game against the Manchester Pirates in Group E of the National High School Football Championship officially began!
First, the home team Pirates kicks off.
The formation used by the Pirates today is the classic 4-4-2 position.
From the beginning, the Corsair's two wingers pressed forward very high, creating a lot of pressure on the Bucks Steel Horns.
In the first 5 minutes, Albert, the core of the midfield, distributed the ball with a wide field of vision to the right wing - which is the corresponding left side of the Bucks Steel Horns.
The temporary left back rushed forward to grab the ball.
Bread came over from the center to provide emergency support, forming a two-on-one local advantage with the temporary workers.
However, when the right winger of the Corsairs was in a physical confrontation with the temporary worker, he directly put his arms around the temporary worker's neck and threw the temporary worker to the ground!
The temporary worker quickly got up and raised his hand to appeal to the referee.
But the referee ignored it!
The temporary worker didn't hesitate and immediately grabbed it.
The winger on the opposite side judged the temporary worker's intention in advance and passed directly to the center——
This kick was beautiful! The Bucks Steel Horns' midfield defense was instantly penetrated!
Seeing Albert, the No. 10 core on the opposite side, speeding up, Boll, who was responsible for the "fixed stare", forcibly blocked Albert's body and pulled Albert's jersey with his hands.
The referee was nearby but did not blow the whistle.
The British football style is very rough. In amateur and low-level leagues, fouls of this level are not considered fouls at all.
Taking advantage of Boll's speed to suppress Albert, Bread turned around and sprinted. Before Albert touched the ball, Bread kicked the ball toward the frontcourt.
...it was so exciting right from the start!
Gu Ran sat on the bench, his heart beating violently.
It can be said that in this wave, the Bucks Steel Horns defended very well.
Although the temporary workers are a bit off, the double midfielders are indeed very stable defensively.
But the problem is that if we continue to defend like this, I am afraid that after halftime, Boll and the temporary left back who are marking people will not be able to physically stamina...
Do you want to...
hiss!
Gu Ran suddenly understood Coach Carter's final tactical intention!
Gu Ran couldn't help but secretly glance at Coach Carter, who was sitting upright, and then quickly looked away.
The game continues on the field.
The offensive and defensive transitions between both sides were very fast.
The Bucks Steel Horns put all their emphasis on defense, especially the presence of Bol, which was like a dog-skin plaster, making the opposite No. 10 core Albert very uncomfortable.
However, as the game progressed, the shortcomings of the Bucks Steel Horns were gradually exposed.
The first is the problem of the disconnect between the midfield and the frontcourt.
The two defensive midfielders of the Bucks Steel Horns, one was following Albert the whole time, and the other was helping to defend the left back, and there was no chance to deliver a good ball to the frontcourt.
In the first 30 minutes of the first half, the Bucks Steel Horns' midfield and frontcourt got the ball a total of 7 times, most of which were backcourt clearances made by their own efforts.
The midfielders and frontcourt players of the Bucks Steel Horns played very depressed.
Minato kept dropping back to get the ball, but had almost no chance.
Secondly, there were a lot of close-to-hand confrontations between the two sides, and there was a confrontation almost every time the ball was passed, and the Bucks and Steel Horns couldn't take any advantage.
Finally, after more than a dozen thrilling confrontations, the Bucks Steel Horns' lack of ability at left back was completely exposed to the Corsairs' eyes.
Especially the "dog skin plaster" Boll, after following Albert for half an hour, Boll's physical fitness dropped very obviously.
The head coach of the Corsairs in a suit put one hand in his trouser pocket and elegantly directed his players to press the opponent's left side on the sidelines.
For the Corsairs head coach, the Bucks Steelhorns are just a fourth-tier team in Group E. They are a free team that can win just by playing, so there is no need for the Corsairs players to play too hard.
Save your physical strength and energy and wait for three days to play against the real strong team Rugby College.
Under the on-the-spot command of the Corsair head coach, the Corsair team repeatedly took advantage of the left lane, entered the penalty area more and more times, and kicked the ball more and more times.
There is danger in front of the Bucks Steel Horns!
