Super Coach

During the two-week national team game, Yang Cheng became very busy, but this does not mean that he does not need to do anything.

The first week he was more on vacation, first staying at Lake Como for a few days, then ran to a luxury villa in Lake Windermere, England to live for a while, and now this season is just right, in Sienna ’s Accompanied, stayed there for a few days, this time I really toured the scenery of Lake Windermere.

After returning to Madrid, some players who did not have the task of the national team began to train, and at the same time, some players of Castilla who participated in the U-level national team game also returned. Yang Cheng took Parejo, Bueno and Callehong Four teenagers with Jurado joined the first team to participate in joint training.

According to Yang Cheng's previous thoughts, the game against Almeria must be a substitute, but he also wants to try a different tactic to play this game. He hopes to try the effect.

Therefore, after returning to Valdebebas, Yang Cheng took this group of substitutes to start the exercise of new tactics.

In the current football, there is a sentence called the midfielder who wins the world. Many people just think that this sentence is a game, but it is not, because the midfield is configured in the current football tactical system. Importantly, even more than forwards and defenders, what kind of football a team can play depends on the midfield.

Therefore, Yang Cheng formed a team, usually around the midfield, for example, Real Madrid is around Ha. ． ． Alonso and Mascherano's double midfielders came this time, too.

It was just that Yang Cheng wanted to try some changes in midfield configuration, so he repeatedly practiced and inspected in training.

When a person raises tactical comprehension to a certain height, a team ’s tactics in his impression is equivalent to a set of game props pieced together by the technical characteristics of different players. He can according to himself anytime, anywhere To understand and adjust and change tactics.

To give an example, the same team ca n’t score. Some coaches will think that the striker is not good. This is a relatively low-level head coach. Some head coaches will think that it is not good for the midfield. This is a medium head coach. Real The top coach will use video and training to find out which part of the team's offense is going wrong.

It is also because of a problem in the midfield that the team can't score the ball. Some people will choose to introduce midfield players to fill the deficiencies in the offensive advancement link, and some people will choose to go back to the midfield with the striker or the forward. Reinforce the midfield, change the team's overall tactics, and turn shortcomings into advantages.

Tactics, in the final analysis, whether it is a defensive counterattack or a big pressure on the offensive, whether it is Barcelona's ball control or Chelsea's belief in the control space, in the most basic things, they are all consistent and are the same.

The reason for so many differences is mainly that the head coaches have different understandings of tactics and players have different technical characteristics and configurations. When the head coaches have different tactical understandings, the tactics developed are naturally impossible according to the current status of technical characteristics and staffing. Similarly, this has created a grand occasion for football tactics to flourish today.

As the leading coach in football today, Yang Cheng is regarded as the first person in tactical innovation by countless tactical enthusiasts. After so many years of coaching, tactical attainments are also second to none in football today, so he always knows his ball What characteristics of players are missing from the team?

Every time a set of tactics is to be reorganized, Yang Cheng will first determine a concept, that is, what kind of effect this set of tactics should achieve, and what kind of purpose it should achieve. Starting from this premise, set the skills of the players in each position Features and requirements But this is only an ideal stage. The next step is to adjust tactics according to the existing staffing.

As if this time, what he wanted was a set of tactics with sufficient ball control to give Guti, Raul and other substitute players their own unique opportunities, so he began to transform these players in his mind For each item of technical characteristics, according to these technical characteristics, each position is repeatedly combined similar to DIY.

For example, the organizer, in Real Madrid ’s 4231 tactics, the organizer is Xavi Alonso, but in the current lineup, Guti and Granero are not the kind of full-time organizers, so Yang Cheng put Hacien Alonso ’s organizational responsibilities are divided into two parts, one, passing the ball forward, and two, passing the ball on two sides.

Yang Cheng handed the responsibility of passing the ball forward to Guti, and the responsibility of splitting the two sides to Tiago, Silva, and the Brazilian has a good ability to pass the ball. Can be competent, for this reason, he put the Brazilian defender in the front position. After Elgra dragged, the Spaniard adapted to this position.

Secondly, Mascherano's responsibilities were also separated. The responsibility of protecting the defense line was handed over to Tiago Girva. The anti-robbery was transferred to Granero in the first time, and even Raul was assigned a little.

In this way, the duties of the double backs are separated, and Real Madrid can continue to keep the defense forward.

In order to ensure the stability of the defense line after Tiago Silva moved forward, Yang Cheng made Aveloa and Miguel Torres try to avoid simultaneous forward insertion, and the position was slightly moved closer to the middle, ready to respond to the defense of the middle.

In order to ensure the offensive ability of the wing, Yang Cheng let Mata and Ozil act as wing assaulters. At the same time, he also placed a Negredo in front of the defense line. The Spanish center has even allocated to the local anti-robbing. Mission.

In other words, when a head coach has sufficient tactical literacy, he can break up the technical characteristics of all positions on the court and redistribute them to players in different positions because of the configuration in the midfield. Inside, there are always those factors that play a role. As long as these factors are all achieved, there will be no problem with the offense and defense of this team.

For example, open the horizontal width of the court to pass the schedule, open the depth of the offense to advance the ball, and insert the attack more secretly, protect the back line and the 32-meter area ..., etc., as long as you can do this, just How do you toss about, this team's offense and defense will not have too much problem.

Maybe some people are surprised, can't the striker and defender work?

In fact, when it comes to shaping and change, forwards and defenders are much worse than midfielders, so as the importance of tactics continues to increase, the midfield will play an increasingly important role.

For example, Drogba, he actually shared a large part of the defensive tasks in the midfield, and after Yang Cheng applied these tasks to Drogba, he reduced Gerard ’s defensive tasks and increased the offensive tasks. It was Gerard who desperately scored the goal later.

Tactics can often be seen as playing blocks, you can stack them into the shape you want. 1 down, prove you fail, do not fall, prove you succeed, it's that simple!

However, the simplicity is ideal. If it really works, it will definitely encounter a lot of troubles, such as how to ensure the player ’s tacit understanding of the running strategy, and how to keep the players at a suitable distance from each other on the court to facilitate the team ’s effective operation. The transfer, which requires a lot of training and develop a tacit understanding.

And Yang Cheng's sudden large rotation seems to be a whim. In fact, he has been brewing this set of tactics since the summer training, so his starting lineup was not decided suddenly, but He has been trying combinations.

In the evening of September 15, the Bernabéu Stadium

After 45 minutes of the first half, the opponents returned to the venue.

Bernabeu's red scoreboard shows the scores of the two teams, 0: 1, the international practice 1 home team is in front, the visiting team is behind.

Yes, no one is wrong, Real Madrid was scored in their own home!

Almeria is very honored to take away Real Madrid ’s debut goal this season. I believe Real Madrid fans will remember this, because this team has not confronted for 16 years and gave Real Madrid a wake-up call. .

Real Madrid played very strangely in this game!

This is the commentator of the scene, not just him, all Real Madrid fans have seen it, because they found that Real Madrid is actually playing ball control, and it is very similar.

In the first half of the 45-minute game, Real Madrid's ball control rate was as high as 678%, which was rare in the previous Real Madrid tactics, but Real Madrid's shots were few, compared to the 7 times of Almería who defended the counterattack. There are only a few, only 6 times, only 1 of them was shot positive, and the others were anti-aircraft guns.

What does this data reflect?

Reflects that Real Madrid's offensive advancement has a very big problem. Players can't effectively send the ball into the dangerous area, and then form an effective chance to hit the door, so it can only be converted into personal performance and long shots.

In response to this, Yang Cheng made adjustments during the intermission.

"Your new tactics are no problem, we have achieved our goal. We are ahead of our opponents in ball control. We can also press our opponents in the half. Now we are the last step, how to convert the ball control. To be an effective threat. "Benitez stood beside Yang Cheng, watching the referee half whistle and started the second half of the game.

Yang Cheng smiled and turned to look at his partner, "If we lose this game, everyone will laugh at me tomorrow, thinking that I am Dong Shixiao, even want to learn Barcelona to play ball control!"

"We are also different from Barcelona!" Redondo defended.

Benitez shook his head, "No one will take care of you. If you lose, even the distinction is superfluous!"

"But we need spare tires, we can never rely on a set of tactics to fight the world, right?" Redondo said.

This is something everyone knows, but some people will habitually ignore it, such as accountability.

After the adjustment of the halftime break, Yang Cheng asked Aveloya and Miguel Bristol to give Mata and Ozil some assistance, opening the sidewalk as much as possible to play the role of Negredo in the penalty area, and Guti ’s position is also higher, and Granero is slightly behind, responsible for connecting the connection between Tiago Silva and Guti. He is a midfield assistant in Yang Cheng ’s tactics and can pass forward. Ball assists can also be invested in anti-robbing as soon as possible. In the future, you can pass the ball to the side and even help withdraw the defense.

After more than a year, the emperor immediately became familiar with Yang Cheng ’s ballless running requirements. They knew each other well how to keep their distance and how to respond to their teammates. This need not be emphasized at all. The problem now is cooperation Not tacit enough, the speed of advancement is slow.

But Yang Cheng has a feeling that this problem will be greatly improved after the player adapts to Almeria's defensive pressure and the opponent's physical energy is consumed seriously. After the defensive strength declines.

So even when the team was behind for a long time, he still did not make substitution adjustments, which made everyone feel unbelievable. Even the live commentators felt that Yang Cheng was stubbornly sticking to his mistakes.

"We have to admit that he is very great, but in the first 60 minutes of this game, Real Madrid played very chaoticly, unable to organize an effective threat offensive, he must make adjustments as soon as possible, otherwise Real Madrid's winning streak is likely Stopped in 16 games! "

Bernabeu's Real Madrid fans did not give boos, but encouraged the team.

When the game reached the 67th minute, Tiago and Silva faced the Brazilian compatriot Filipe Paolo with the ball, firmly stuck in the position, and after the ball was cut off from Merlo's foot, he quickly delivered Miguel Torres on the right.

MM

Castilla got the ball and took it homeward, passing straight to Ozil on the right.

The German teenager took the ball from the back. Facing Bruno, who is very good at standing and defensive ability, Ozil did not choose to continue the one-on-one breakthrough. Instead, he took advantage of his left foot and took the ball sideways to the middle to attract the defense After the player's attention, the ball was passed to Guti at the front of the penalty area.

After Guti got the ball, there was no hesitation, because he was surrounded by defensive players, the ball seemed to hit his foot, bounced, and fell to the right of the penalty area.

Negredo is in the left area, and Raul is inserted from outside the penalty area, turning his back to the goal, the chest stops Guti's pass to his right, turning, starting, and volleying!

The whole movement is done in one go, just like flowing clouds and flowing water, not elegant and calm.

The ball passed under the goalkeeper Covinho and rolled into the goal!

"1: 1! Real Madrid scored a goal !!!"

Raúl rushed out of the penalty area and excitedly folded his arms and shouted towards the Real Madrid fans in the stands, letting them make their cheers more violent.

The entire Bernabeu stadium is boiling, and all Real Madrid fans are chanting Raul ’s name.

"A very, very beautiful goal. Guti's pass tears Almeria's entire back line. Raul's stopping and volley volley are also very wonderful. This is a manifestation of the star's personal ability! "

But is it really just a manifestation of the player's personal ability? Does it really have no tactical effect?

Soon, after 5 minutes, Real Madrid overturned this statement with a second goal.

The first attack was when Ozil made a breakthrough on the right and made the ball into the penalty area. Negredo's goal was blocked by the opposing center defender Juanito, and Guti's follow-up was followed by Bruno. Destroyed, Carlos Cacia's big foot cleared the ball out of the penalty area, but the ball landed at the foot of Tiago Galva behind.

Brazil's central defender was very forward in this game. After winning the ball, the ball was transferred to the left. Aveloya took the ball forward and handed it to Mata. The latter made a forced breakthrough on the left and passed the bottom. in.

Negredo struggled for the header with Juanito afterwards, but the shooting angle was restricted. He jumped and flew the ball to the front point. Like a cunning fox, Raul lurking in the penalty area after plugging in In the header, Negredo's ferry hit Almería's goal again.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLL !!!!!!!!!"

"In 5 minutes, Real Madrid will continue to the two cities within the hope of the clock !!!"

"Second time, this is an excellent transcript for us after Raul returned to the starting lineup!"

'1 A very beautiful siege. After equalizing the score, Real Madrid almost blocked Almeria in the half and carried out a round of bombardment. The offensive was wave after wave. Ball control. "

After completing the reversal, Yang Cheng made the first substitution of the whole game. He used Xavi, Garcia replaced Elgra, let Tiago, Silva went back and dragged the defender, let Xavi , Garcia played Tiago, this position of Silva.

As a result, in the 78th minute, it was Harvey and Garcia who inserted the ball and helped Ozil on the right to enter the penalty area of ​​Almeria. The German fired a shot but the strength was not hit. Gredo succeeded in making up the shot, 3: 1!

As the scene gradually opened, as Almeria was scored by Real Madrid successively, the morale was low and the defensive strength was reduced. Yang Cheng replaced Guti with Kalehong, let Ozil go to the middle, and Kalehun to play On the right, Bueno replaced the outstanding captain Raul. The captains of both teams were cheered and applauded by Real Madrid fans.

In the 88th minute, Granero made a quick counterattack on the right side with a imaginative pick pass and made the ball into the penalty area. Negredo lifted his foot in the air and hit the goal again. Almeria's goal, 4: 1!

Real Madrid, who scored four goals in a row, showed a momentum of dissatisfaction. This group of substitute players and youth teenagers who finally played in the league are now holding one breath to play and play in front of Yang Cheng. Express themselves, even at the last moment of the game, they are still threatening Almeria's goal, scaring Almeria's head coach cold and furious.

But in the end, Real Madrid reversed Almeria 4: 1 at the Bernabeu Stadium and ushered in their 17th consecutive win in La Liga!

The better news is that after the game, there was a great piece of good news from El and Sardar Stadium in Osasuna. After 90 minutes of the game, the two sides had a 0: 0 draw.

The most pitiful thing is that Barcelona has a 693% possession rate, but has never been able to break through Osasuna ’s goal. In contrast, the ball possession rate is also high in this game. Real Madrid, which reached 705%, relied on the last half hour The outbreak of 9: 1 reversed Almeria.

These two games became a topic that everyone talked about for a time. Everyone hoped to find out what happened in Barcelona, ​​and Real Madrid was so transformed because of what.

Daily Sports Daily issued a tragedy in the newspaper on the next day, and published a title entitled "What to save you, my Barcelona!" The article thinks that after three rounds behind Real Madrid, Barcelona has just started in the league and has lost the chance to win the championship.

This also made Real Madrid, who has recently been strong, once again attract the attention of fans all over the world! (To be continued)
