Chapter 66 Is this the left back? He’s wearing a knife!
Albert is worthy of being the captain of the Corsair team. His words quickly stabilized the Pirates team's mentality for the game.
Judging from the game time and score, the Corsairs really don't need to worry.
Their ball possession rate and various offensive and defensive statistics are currently far ahead of the Bucks and Steel Horns.
Now, there are still 25 minutes left before the end of the game.
Theoretically, as long as they maintain the 2:1 score step by step, they can score the necessary 3 points in this plan at their home court.
After the Bucks Steelhorns pulled back a goal, their confidence increased significantly.
The football is passed back and forth between the midfield and the wings.
The Pirates' attack was still sharp, but compared to the first half, the pace was significantly slower.
In terms of physical fitness, it is one of the key factors that affects the state of the field.
As physical fitness declines, various attribute data will decline accordingly, and mistakes will also increase.
Even though the Bucks Steel Horns are at a clear disadvantage in terms of technology, in terms of physical fitness, the Bucks Steel Horns are no worse than the Corsairs, and even have a slight advantage over the Corsairs.
In terms of the tactical systems of the two teams, on the surface, the Corsair team is still superior.
The Pirates' usual routine is actually very simple, and can be summarized in one sentence: Albert splits the sides and plays behind the opposite full-back, and then the winger fights for it and crosses down to form a shot.
This tactic sounds simple, but the actual effect is very powerful.
High school amateur teams, especially high school amateur teams based on the British football style, are often built with a simple core routine of play, and other details are run and fine-tuned around this core tactical routine.
The principle that one trick can be eaten all over the world also applies here.
The Bucks Steel Horns also have their own set of core tactics.
Before the "dog" Olin defected, the core tactic of the Bucks Steel Horns was to rely on the left back Olin's personal ability to break through the pull, penetrate the opponent's right wing, hit the bottom or send a long pass to form a threatening ball.
Therefore, Olin's defection was equivalent to destroying the entire Bucks Steel Horns team.
The current tactic of the Bucks and Steel Horns is a temporary change to the "9 and a half" tactic: the backcourt players pass the ball to Minato, relying on Minato's personal ability to create threats.
Comparing the core tactics of the two teams, the Corsair team's core tactics are obviously more advanced and more proficient, and more like a complete system.
but……
When the Bucks Steelhorns replaced Gu Ran, the new left back, the situation was different.
Gu Ran's appearance did not change the positioning of Watergate's No. 9 and a half, but it was like an engine, completely activating the tactics of the No. 9 and a half, allowing the Bucks Steel Horns' midfield and backcourt to be perfectly connected.
This "fine-tuning" of tactics caught the entire pirate fleet off guard.
The head coach of the Corsair team in a suit frowned and stood on the sidelines. He knew that the Chinese boy opposite him was very dangerous, but he had no better way to deal with it at this time. He could only shout a few words from time to time to remind the Corsair players to pay attention to the Chinese boy.
The position prevents the Chinese kid from suddenly cutting inside when he gets the ball.
The two sides exchanged offense and defense in the next ten minutes, but neither side achieved new results.
Gu Ran guarded the left side of the Bucks Steel Horns, always maintaining a linear position with the back line, patiently waiting for opportunities.
The 81st minute of the game——
The Bucks Steel Horns made a mistake in the pass-and-receive coordination on the right wing. The Corsair full-back intercepted the ball and then passed it decisively across to his defensive midfielder.
The Corsair midfielder made a through ball and handed it to Albert in the middle of the midfield.
Albert easily controlled the ball at his feet and accelerated the ball forward!
The Manchester school students at the scene immediately raised their arms and cheered excitedly, and the whole audience roared 3:1!
The Bucks Steel Horns' formation retracted urgently, and the defensive midfielder moved up to defend Albert.
Albert had a relaxed face and a sneer on his face. He turned around very experiencedly to protect the ball and held the bread. At the same time, he turned towards the left side of the Bucks Steel Horns and prepared to pick the ball——
At this moment, Gu Ran accelerated and sprinted to the middle area——
As soon as Albert raised his head, he was immediately startled!
He didn't expect that Gu Ran would give up defending the left wing and run to the middle to intercept.
What was even more unexpected was that Gu Ran sprinted so fast, sprinting more than 20 meters in three seconds!
The moment Albert raised his head, Gu Ran had already sprinted two or three meters in front of him!
It stands to reason that when Gu Ran rushed over to intercept, a huge gap appeared behind Gu Ran. At this time, the right winger of the Corsairs had already reached around the thirty-meter area on the wing. Albert only had to pass the ball out.
, the deadly threat of this pirate ship offensive has taken shape.
but……
Gu Ran's sprinting movement blocked the passing channel between Albert and the Corsair right winger in a very short period of time!
The timing and route of picking the ball have been blocked. If the ball is changed to the penalty area at this time, the winger will not have time to cut inside and will definitely not be able to respond.
The only options left are to pass the ball to the wing or turn around to protect the ball and knock back.
However, without the support of teammates on the wing, turning around and knocking back is tantamount to giving up this offensive opportunity.
This seems to be just an extremely ordinary game, but in fact it is a battle of wits and courage between Gu Ran and Albert!
At this moment, Gu Ran's golf intelligence played a decisive role!
Defend the center and put it on the wings!
Put the winger down, but cut off the passing channel between the center player and the winger, and form a two-on-one with your own defensive midfielder in the center, forcing the opponent's center player to pass back or make a mistake!
Although he only took one small lesson, Gu Ran has truly understood the essence of full-back advanced defense!
Your own football intelligence, grasp of interception timing, sprint speed, self-confidence, and reading and predicting the opponent's players are all indispensable!
At the moment when Albert was hesitating about how to handle the ball, Gu Ran decisively used his body to push against Albert.
Albert didn't take it seriously at first, but his expression soon changed!
...so hard!!!
Albert flicked the ball with his toes from the side, trying to get past Gu Ran by relying on the details of his feet.
Gu Ran didn't care about the ball at all, he just squeezed Albert with his body and forced Albert out of the ball control range!
Compared to Gu Ran's decisive collision, Albert handled the ball too hesitantly - the ball was lost!
The bread next to him immediately seized the opportunity and picked up the ball immediately.
This is a suffocating defensive cooperation in the middle!
"Beautiful!!!" Coach Carter raised his arms and roared: "Give it quickly! Give it quickly!"
After Albert lost the ball, he didn't bother to confront Gu Ran and immediately grabbed the bread on the spot.
Bread had been prepared for a long time, and he directly passed the ball forward with a short pass——
Gu Ran accelerated his sprint and ran along the middle following the through ball!
This time, it’s not an incision, but a straight insertion!
The Corsairs' defense suddenly became a mess. Their two wingers quickly shrank towards the midfield, while the players in the center stepped forward to steal and intercept.
Albert also ran hard to catch up.
Gu Ran withstood the physical collision of the Pirates defenders and performed two tacit two-on-ones with the retreating Minato!
The Corsair players who came up to defend Gu Ran in the middle were stunned!
What the hell is this left back???
Bring a knife!!!
He is still carrying it!
In another ten meters, he will be inserted into the restricted area!
