Football Should Be Played Like Me

Chapter 26: play like king 1

The 34th round of the Italian League, Sanremo Municipal Stadium.

In today's stadium, the media has reached the peak of the stadium's history.

Even the press conference held here after Suotu took office did not have the luxurious lineup this time.

"Live Football", "Rome Sports", "Italian Football Review", "Italian National Sports News", "Gazzetta dello Sport", "Kicker"... These famous Italian media are present today.

And sure enough, they quickly found today's protagonists in the VIP fan seats.

Manello and Carlisle!

The two were in suits and leather shoes, chatting and laughing.

The surprising thing is that Carlisle actually has a staff member of the Viola scouting department, veteran scout Lewis.

This lends credibility to Hans' previous article.

"Maniero, are you sure that kid can withstand such a lot of pressure?" Carlisle looked at the San Remo players who were warming up on the court. Among them, a yellow-skinned player who was 1.81 meters was particularly conspicuous.

Because he and another 1.72-meter player stood at the farthest positions in the half court, and then they kept passing each other with big feet. You come and go.

It's Lu Yang and Morich.

And the surprising thing is that both of them are very stable long passers.

When Morich passes the ball to Lu Yang, he often adds some small technical moves, showing his superb control ability.

This is his response to some pre-match rumors.

Someone said to let him know the cruelty of professional football in this game, someone threatened him, and Morich will use his outstanding skills to tell the other side, I have the strength to beat you, you can try it!

In the same way, Lu Yang's passing is not as technical as Morich's before passing the ball, but his passing is quite accurate, especially considering that he is a defensive midfielder who was born in a central defender.

"It seems that I'm overthinking it." Carlisle laughed dumbly, "Is he telling the opposing players in this way that he also has the ability to support and attack, so as to help that little Manello share the defensive pressure? "

Manello smiled.

Because of his previous praise, many people now know that Morich is somewhat similar to Manello when he was young.

"The technical characteristics of him and Manello are not exactly the same." Viola scout Louis said, "Moric's court control is much worse than that of Manello when he was young, but this is what he used to run. covered up."

"But in high-level games, the running range of both sides has greatly increased, and he can get a lot less opportunities. This is the core reason why many teams are not optimistic about him, not just his 1.72-meter thinness figure."

Manello nodded, which is something that many people have overlooked.

The low-level leagues are slow-paced and less stressful. Being able to be a midfielder here doesn't mean you can still be in the high-level leagues. Because the opportunity of the high-level league is fleeting, not everyone can grasp it.

"But Moric's fast passing is actually very good! Especially his half-turn volley pass, I think this is what differentiates him from other midfield commanders." Manello said, "I don't have such skills. Features that I did not require me to have in my era. But with the acceleration of the offensive and defensive rhythm in football now, this may become his core competitiveness in the future."

Luis frowned: "I've seen him pass the ball like that, his ability is not stable enough, he doesn't fully understand that kind of passing style. And ... it's hard for other people to adapt to his pass ball, too fast for the enemy Yes, and the same for my own people."

Manello: "Some people will adapt, but no one is adapting now because the overall level of Italy is too low."

Lewis nodded, not necessarily agreeing, but he had another thought.

After all, Manello is the double brain of the Italian team and Juventus. His vision in football is far longer and more precise than the average person.

"Aren't you going to comment on my successor?" Carlisle forcibly pulled the topic back to Lu Yang, "Louis, you recommended Violet Lily to buy me, you know me too well, so the higher-ups asked you to come. This time, I should hope that you can focus on the crown prince."

Hans's article was very popular, and Florence also kept a high degree of attention to everything related to Carlisle, so Luis was specially sent over.

Louis shook his head: "Carlisle, he is not you. I have studied his technical characteristics. Except that he played a central defender like you, you have nothing in common."

"Even your best burst shot is completely different from his crash shot. He doesn't have any striker-level or midfield-level dribbling ability, breakthrough ability, escape ability. The V-shaped pull is just the most basic. It’s just the touch of the ball, once people are familiar with it, it will be difficult to get rid of it.”

"Maybe he has a certain level of stopping and passing, but such a player can't be a center!"

"In fact, his technical characteristics are not so much the crown prince Zi Lily as the bankrupt butcher!"

Carlisle was taken aback.

How could his successor, who is so handsome, become a little butcher?

But looking at Suotu on the coach's bench, it seems that all this can be explained.

It seems that this trip is purely to catch up with Manello.

The crown prince said it was pure speculation.

beep!

The referee blew the whistle, and the match between Sanremo, fifth in the Italian standings, and Potenza, seventh in the standings, officially started!

Just three minutes into kick-off, Moric was brought down by the opposing midfielder in a scramble.

At that time, Morich had clearly passed the football, but the opponent "failed to brake in time" and knocked over Morich.

The opponent's No. 8 midfielder is a defensive expert with a fierce style of play.

"Hey, man, I've already played the ball!" Morich complained a little.

Whether it was intentional or not, people on the court can best judge.

"Then you can play the ball earlier next time." The opponent's No. 8 player didn't apologize.

"What did you say? Say it again!" Lu Yang pushed him up. He was taller and stronger than the other party. He directly used his chest to support the other party, causing the other party to stumble.

"Hey, hey, be honest with me!" The referee came over and said loudly to Lu Yang and the opponent's No. 8 player.

The two sides then dispersed.

The commentators also set a tough tone for the game.

"Oh, we can see that Morich was brought down again, this time it was Potenza's captain Boggs. He kicked off two stumps before the game and then got Morich, I think It's a threat from Hong Guoguo!"

"Lu Yang went up again. This is the third time he has gone up to argue with the opponent's players today. It can be seen that his relationship with Moric is really good, and he is very angry."

"If it wasn't for Lu Yang's tough attitude, Morich might have been violated more. Potenza's tactics today is to freeze Morich, and it's not just a tactical freeze."

"Boggs is much stronger than Lu Yang, but Lu Yang didn't fall behind during the wrestling between the two. They were evenly divided!"

"Today's Lu Yang's performance is far more like a captain than the team's second captain! Rondo is away today, but Lu Yang has stood up to San Remo's tough side!"

The last five minutes of the first half.

Morich dribbles through the ball.

Potenza's No. 8 sprinted towards Moric, attempting a foul.

But Lu Yang got stuck in advance and blocked the opponent.

Morich thus has a good chance, and with two more steps, he will have a good shot.

But at this moment, Boggs shoveled in the face.

Morich fell heavily to the ground.

beep!

The referee's whistle blows.

This is a foul move.

But it is very cost-effective, because the free kick from this position is not very threatening.

Before the fans could even boo, a figure rushed towards Boggs.

"What the **** are you kicking or kicking!" Lu Yang directly pushed Boggs with both hands, overturning the tall Boggs to the ground.

Boggs immediately got up and rushed towards Lu Yang.

The two collided, pushing each other's chests with their hands, never retreating.

The rest of the team gathered around, and the atmosphere was very tense.

The referee decisively gave Lu Yang a yellow card.

But after seeing Lu Yang's angry eyes, he also showed Boggs the yellow card.

But the reasons are different.

Lu Yang got the yellow card for pushing people.

Boggs got a yellow card for a rough foul on Moric.

In fact, the referee's whistle-blowing scale was relatively loose in this game, which may be his style, but it also made the smell of gunpowder on the court stronger and stronger.

Previously, Potenza had at least two players who deserved yellow cards, but he did not whistle.

Even this time, if it wasn't for Lu Yang's yellow card, the referee might not have given Boggs a yellow card. This is a yellow card to find a balance. He also knew that if the Potenza player was not given a yellow card, the Sanremo players might be extremely unhappy with him.

Look at Lu Yang who is staring at him, look at Suotu the butcher shouting on the sidelines, and look at the angry audience.

In order to ensure that he could walk out of the stadium alive, the referee gave each a yellow card.

"I've seen Potenza's data, they have very few cards, but they shouldn't have very few cards in this way of playing." Lewis said.

"This situation is inevitable in low-level leagues. Potenza is a famous referee team. They can always miraculously change the league situation, so that the bookmakers can gain a lot." Manello almost said it clearly.

In this game, the referee was obviously very lenient towards Potenza.

Morich rolled twice on the ground and covered his ankle after getting up.

No injuries, but it really hurts.

This is the first time he has been defended by the opponent "for the purpose of physical injury".

It's not football.

But it is also an indispensable defensive method in football.

In the first half of the game, the two sides were 0-0.

Rough defense makes it difficult for both players to play creative and organized football.

At half-time, Suotu asked Morich to pay more attention to protecting himself, and asked Lu Yang to find the right time to attack.

The opponent's targeting of Morich gave Lu Yang room to move freely.

The second half begins.

At the 60th minute, the game ushered in a turning point.

Potenza attacked near the Sanremo penalty area, chased after him hard, and won a corner kick.

However, the corner kick was grabbed by Lu Yang and controlled, and Lu Yang gave the ball to Morich.

Morich took the ball, Lu Yang started to plug it in, and Wei Dian in front started sprinting directly.

Sanremo's counterattack opportunity has appeared!

At the same time, Potenza's No. 8 rammed into Morich, trying to stop Morich from hitting the ball.

However, Moric scored a beautiful ball to the right midfielder, and then did not advance but retreated, which made several players who wanted to defend him in Potenza to pounce.

The right midfielder returned to Morich, who made a long pass and the football cut through the sky.

But at the same time, Morich let out a scream.

Because Boggs, who was preparing to fight for a header, brought down Morich from a sliding tackle behind him during the return defense.

He wants to break the pass.

I would rather directly make Morich lose his combat effectiveness.

"Oh, a beautiful pass... Morich was violated, which affected the direction of his ball!"

"Originally, Morich planned to pass to the team's left side. Once Vidian got the ball, he was single-handedly. But because he was brought down by Potenza player Boggs, his ball was passed to the middle. The referee did not call the stop. The game, made an offensive gesture!"

"Vidian knew that he couldn't get the ball. He changed from a forward push to a pull side and took a defender. Because of the middle, there is a San Remo player who may have the ball."

"Lu Yang's high-speed insertion is also very fast. Why is his speed so fast? He surpassed one of the opponent's defenders, and there is only Potenza's only central defender in front of him."

"Potenza's central defender was stuck in position, and Lu Yang and him were constantly fighting physical confrontation between runs. The normal forward was already stuck by the central defender at this time, but Lu Yang didn't. He is not only fast, but also strong!"

"Have the ball, Lu Yang has the ball, but the opponent's central defender is pestering him. What should he do? Give the ball to Vidian? Rich, he's still curled up on the ground. Boggs is definitely a bad foul, after this attack, the referee may give him a second yellow card of the game!"

At the top of the arc in the penalty area, Lu Yang received the ball and kept confronting the opponent's central defender.

"He doesn't have any chance in this ball." Lewis said in the stands, "If it was Carlisle, you would definitely kick up, and you have the ability to kick up under this kind of confrontation pressure. It's your specialty."

"He wants to be your successor, wants to be the crown prince of Violet Lily, he should shoot a shot and let the football go into that **** net at this moment!"

Luis is a high-quality scout who knows the players' technical characteristics very well.

Carlisle is so strong.

But only Carlisle is so strong, who can carry the opponent's central defender to burst shots at will.

Ordinary strikers don't even have a chance to kick up, and they will be knocked over by the opponent.

"He will, because he is angry." Manello interjected.

The next second.

Bang!

I saw Lu Yang kicking at the top of the arc in the penalty area while carrying the opponent's central defender.

The central defender wanted to stop all this, but found that he couldn't stand Lu Yang at all.

This guy's confrontation ability is too strong!

In the next second, the football goes straight into the net in a straight line.

In mid-air, the football is only one meter two or three meters away from the ground. But the moment the football enters the goal, it almost hits the crossbar.

During the time it was flying in the air, the football rose by more than one meter.

This is a sharp shot with great performance!

And Potenza's goalkeeper was completely wrong, he even half-knelt on the ground.

Obviously, he thought that Lu Yang could only take a crash shot.

Compared with the skill represented by the crash shot, the surge shot represents more of a sense of power!

"GOAL!"

The audience was instantly boiling!

And Louis, has stayed where he was.

Because the way Lu Yang played just now was the same as the King of Purple Lily...!
