"Lyon's most lethal weakness is in their back waist position."
In the training base of Saint Germain Lyon in the western suburb of Paris, Gao Han watched the live broadcast of the Champions League and directly pointed out the weakness of Lyon. He just had a fight with Lyon away from home. Paris Saint Germain won four goals. Therefore, Gao Han knows Lyon's weakness like the palm of his hand.
Through the last 16 knockout of the Champions League, he is more sure of this.
"This summer, Lyon sold the number one midfield of the team to Malaga, which certainly made Lyon gain a large transfer fee, but in the middle of the position has not been able to effectively solve
Claude Makelele nodded: "Lyon introduced Geda Fofana from Le Havre and spent 1.8 million euros. This 20-year-old is the main international of French World Youth Championship. He has great potential and is known as the backbone of Lyon in the next few years together with lacazette promoted by gard."
"That's right." Alpine towards Makelele praise smile, the French league can be said to be well-known.
"Fufana has played well this season, but his defense in midfield is relatively weak, his ability of interception is not strong, and he is more good at passing and controlling. It is estimated that this is also the reason why gard likes him, but Lyon's midfield is lack of thickness and defensive ability, especially in the back waist position. Fufana has a poor sense of position and is easy to be used."
When Paris Saint Germain played Lyon, gard's team was completely destroyed by the cold team.
"Indeed, in the French league, or in the Champions League, the opponent's strength is not strong, Lyon's problem can be covered up, but in the strong dialogue, Lyon's problem is very obvious."
Zidane said here, the conversation changed, "but this game, gard is also prepared, his tactical design is good."
Gao Han glanced at Zidane and laughed. Zidane's eyes were sharp when he could see this layer.
"You're right. Tactically speaking, it's nothing more than developing strengths and avoiding weaknesses. It's the same with gard's game. He didn't go to gonaron, but chose Gourcuff. It's the best proof that he wants to eat Chinatown at home and arrange Bryan to play on the right side."
Zidane showed a thoughtful look, "you mean, there is something wrong with this arrangement?"
"No, no problem. It turns out that he worked and scored in the first eight minutes
"But you just said..."
"Yes." Gao cold nodded, "the opening goal let them win the first chance, also let Chinatown upset, but then there is a new problem, that is, Bryan de in the right defense is not active, he used to play the forward position in the middle, do not need to defend back, but the right wing position needs, especially in the face of Chinatown."
When Zidane and Makelele heard this, they suddenly realized.
"Gard's targeted defense layout is good, but it is his first time to coach alone. He may not be aware of his own problems. In other words, he is aware of it, but he wants to score another goal, so he never moves the positions of Bryan and Gourcuff."
"If I am bochetino, at this time I just need to liberate alba, press him forward boldly, let him forward to assist and break Lyon's imprisonment of Azar on the left, then I can release the attack of Chinatown."
When Gao Han said this, he said with a smile, "if I'm a little more ruthless, I'll consider changing two players of debraune, fermino and ISCO to attack Lyon's back, and gard will be completely finished!"
Zidane and Makelele looked at each other, they all saw the look of admiration and helplessness in each other's eyes.
What they admire is alpine's insight. Even though it is broadcast live on TV, he can see the problems of the other party's platoon at a glance, and give targeted strategies. But unfortunately, the scheme given by alpine is too crazy, and I'm afraid he is the only one in the world who dares to do so.
"It's no use saying that now. Pochetino can't hear it. He may not be able to see it."
"No, no, No Alpine shook his head, "I believe the team's data analysis will show, the simplest point, look at the midfield interception data is very clear, bochetino the most important thing is calm, to calm down, he must see."
At the beginning of the cold, Chinatown was replaced.
…………
…………
Bochetino did see it, but it was not as crazy as Gao Han said. He did not have the courage. After all, it was the first time in his career that he led the team to play in the Champions League knockout match. Although he fought hard, he was not as crazy as he was.
He replaced Herrera with ISCO, a landmark replacement for Chinatown this season.
ISCO is also known as bochetino's gold medal substitute, every replacement can turn the situation around.
It's the same this time.
As soon as he came on the court, the Spanish young player had a strong attack with the ball in the middle. After passing two Lyon midfielders in a row, he sent the ball to Pelle's feet. However, Chris, the veteran defender of the back, tackled the ball at the critical moment to solve a crisis.
But soon, bochettino's adjustment became apparent.
Alba began to give up the marking of Bryan, boldly charged forward when he was holding the ball, pressed to the front court, and actively participated in the attack of the front court. Bryan's poor consciousness of back defense made him seldom chase back, which led to the fact that Ravier behind him had to face alba and Azar's two left wingers at the same time.
Azar after two years of La Liga main training, progress is very obvious, in the left and middle to flexible transposition, running consciousness is very smart, let Lyon originally effective regional defense completely collapsed.
Coupled with the attack of ISCO's dribbling in the middle of the road, Lyon can be said to ignore the head, and the original defense like an iron wall suddenly became full of mistakes and dilapidated.
When the match went on to the 81st minute, Chinatown, which made threats frequently, finally got a great chance.
Azar received the ball from the left and then cut in. He was closely watched by Lyon defenders and was forced to pass the ball to lakitic. The Croatian passed the ball to Isko without stopping.
ISCO stopped the ball and faced two players at the same time, Karsten and fufana.
The only thing I saw was the bravery of Spain's young player, who drove forward with the ball directly. With his skillful foot dribbling and excellent changing rhythm, he fought hard under the left and right attack of two Lyon midfielders and rushed to the front of the penalty area with the ball, which surprised both Lyon's two centre backs Chris and lovelen.
Pelle was unfortunate to be offside, but he pointed out the weakness of the left side to ISCO, who was keen to push the ball to the left side after catching Chris at the front of the penalty area.
Alba then quickly offside ray Vier, with a very fast speed into the penalty area, in the face of ISCO's oblique pass, without thinking to swing his left foot, is a volley.
The ball went over goalkeeper Loris' outstretched leg and into the side net at the back point!
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!”
"Eighty first minute, eighty first minute!"
"ISCO is the lucky star of Chinatown again!"
"This amazing Spanish youngster passed three Lyon defenders in a row and helped Alba to score a goal
"Let's go back to this wonderful performance of ISCO."
"His breakthrough with the ball left a deep impression on us. The speed is not fast, but the footwork is delicate and the rhythm is very flexible, which makes Lyon's defenders unable to keep up with his rhythm
"It's amazing that Chinatown finally equalized after more than an hour behind."
"From the substitute on the field of the young man's assists, left back Alba cold volley
China city was very excited after the goal. Everyone rushed to the edge of the field and held together. Coach bochetino jumped up from the ground and roared up to the sky to express his inner excitement.
But soon, Argentina coach completely calm down, keep clapping at the players on the court, indicating that they quickly return to the field, continue to increase offensive strength, must continue to work hard, and strive to reverse Lyon.
Chinatown soon returned to the field and continued to attack Lyon after the game resumed.
The home team was caught in a weak spot and was in a bit of a mess. After gard was equalised, he was even more unprepared. He immediately replaced the underperforming Gourcuff with defensive midfield gonaron, intending to strengthen the midfield defense.
With each passing day, Chinatown began to play with more confidence and more fighting spirit, especially alba and Azar on the left, and Isko and lakitic on the middle.
The release of the left and the middle attracted Lyon's defensive attention. Obamayan also quickly got a great chance on the right. However, the right fast horse didn't have time to adjust when facing Loris after receiving Pele's single shot. He sent the ball directly into Loris's arms and missed a precious chance to score in vain.
Obamayan was so regretful that he beat his head on the grass that he obviously regretted that he missed the chance to score.
In the past few years in Chinatown, under the guidance of cantarello, he has made great progress, especially in shooting skills. But just now, he was too excited. In the face of a sudden opportunity, he played without thinking, and as a result, he directly called loris.
It was a valuable away goal and a victory.
What a shame!
The game ended in obamayan's remorse. Chinatown made a fierce attack at the last moment, but failed to break Lyon's goal again. The score of one-to-one was maintained until the end of the midfield.
Although not able to beat Lyon away, but got a valuable away goal, especially the last moment of the attack, let pochetino gain confidence.
On the other hand, gard and Lyon players, the victory they held in their hands, turned into a draw in the end, which made them lose interest one by one.
While in Chinatown happily returned to the dressing room, bochetino received a call from alpine cold.
"Congratulations, Mauricio. It's a wonderful game. I'm very proud of you and your team."
After every game, bochetino will receive a call from Gao Han. If he loses, Gao Han will encourage him. If he wins, Gao Han will give him praise and affirmation.
"Thank you, Mr. Gao. It was a very hard game. I was too conservative in the arrangement of the platoon and made some mistakes."
"But you adjusted well at the last minute and the team's attack was a threat Gao Han said with a smile.
Recently, the results of the Chinese city team are ups and downs, very unstable, but it can be seen from the high cold that bochetino has run in the team well in the winter break, especially in the offensive end, the organization is quite good.
Because of this, bochettino will insist on fighting on both sides, hoping to try his best to attack the king's cup and the Champions League. Once he is eliminated, he will concentrate on playing in La Liga.
"I believe that after this game, you should know how to play the second leg." Gao Han said with a smile.
Pochetino blurted out without hesitation: "of course it's against his mother!"
With a rude remark, Gao Han not only didn't think it was disobedient, but laughed.
Yes, it's about attacking his mother!
