Chapter 284 The Great Outbreak
Chapter 284 The Great Outbreak
Feyenoord displayed a tenacious fighting spirit in the second half.
They substituted three attacking players at once, hoping to equalize the score.
Li Yanqing didn't rush to make adjustments this time. He thought his own defense could hold out for a while, but he didn't expect the opponent's luck to change as well.
The ball was scrambled for in the penalty area, and then a young player took a shot inside the box.
Joe Hart was completely bewildered and couldn't see the ball's trajectory at all.
Two to one.
"This is terrible..."
Li Yanqing covered his head, not saying how bad the situation on the field was, but because he had discovered another weakness in the team.
Some people are trained too well in tactics.
Yes, it's not too bad, it's too good.
Even during chaotic battles in the penalty area, they tried their best to maintain their formation.
The result of this is that the defenses won't collapse, but if they're lucky, they'll always manage to find a small opening.
Such as this time.
He didn't blame the players because he had arranged the tactics himself.
Perhaps in the future, during chaotic battles, all the defenders can be assigned to man-marking defense?
At the sixty-minute mark, Li Yanqing made the changes as planned.
Ibrahimovic, Blind, and Matias came on as substitutes.
Ogradi, Pepe, and Anderson were substituted.
The formation also changed to 3-5-2.
This was a tactic he had planned long ago, and the players had been training on it for a while. Now it was time to test its effectiveness.
The advantage of changing the formation like this is that you don't need to change the fixed players.
Adjusting any side lane can achieve the same effect.
However, Anderson on the field looked very dissatisfied after seeing the substitution instruction.
Now is the perfect time for them to widen the score gap.
Should I take my place?
He still remembers when he first came to Burton, he was the team's core player!
Most of the attacks need to be launched from his side!
He performed his duties very well last season, and his goal tally also reached double digits.
but now......
Quinn was almost invisible because of Dybala's presence!
He's only scored two goals in nearly a quarter of the season's games!
However, in a game where he had a chance to score, why was he substituted off?
Are you going to use yourself as an engineer?
A sullen Anderson eventually walked off the court.
He wouldn't do something like refusing to replace someone.
But to express his anger, he didn't high-five Matthias, leaving the latter somewhat embarrassed.
Then he went straight to the substitutes' bench...
As for Li Yanqing, he was completely oblivious to the players' feelings.
At this moment, his attention was completely focused on the game...
The 3-5-2 formation was more impactful, and Feyenoord, who tried to go toe-to-toe with Burton, suffered greatly.
If the defenders move forward slightly, they have to be wary of Kvaradona and Matias suddenly surging out from the flanks.
They will try to cut inside, disrupt the defensive formation, and then pass the ball to Ibrahimovic, Dybala, or Quinn for a shot.
Sometimes David Lewis would join in and kick him.
If conditions permit, both wingers can also shoot on their own.
It mainly depends on who Quinn chooses to pass the ball to for the attack.
He's increasingly showing the qualities of a "midfield maestro."
"Boss, let me play next!"
"I assure you, I'm in great shape!"
"It's impossible for something like last time to happen again..."
Murphy didn't play in this game, but instead of sitting on the bench as usual, he went to Li Yanqing and asked for a chance to play.
"you sure?"
Li Yanqing raised his eyebrows. This kid's three failed attempts to break through the defense in the last round had already become a well-known story of "passing by his home three times without entering".
However, the reason he wasn't played in this match wasn't related to his form; it was mainly because there weren't many counter-attack opportunities, so there would have been no point in him playing.
"Sure!"
"Of course I'm sure!"
Murphy sounded somewhat guilty as he said this, because he kept glancing toward the coaching bench.
"If the training sessions go smoothly for the next few days, you will be available on the field."
"Also, go find Nave and have him arrange another round of shooting practice for you."
"Okay! Thanks, boss!"
Seeing Murphy's happy expression, Li Yanqing was a little confused.
When did this kid become so excited about a chance to play?
However, this is not important.
It's definitely a good thing for players to want to show themselves.
He wouldn't worry about something like that.
At this point, Burton had firmly taken control of the situation on the field.
Feyenoord's counter-attacks were relatively slow, and Mangala could easily defend against them.
Although he has the nickname "Slow" Gallas, that refers to his passing and offensive awareness, which are basically zero.
In terms of defense, he is also a rare and formidable player.
In the 85th minute, Burton scored the decisive goal that sealed the victory.
It was Dybala again who found an opportunity when the opponent's defense was in disarray.
[Master-level volley] It accurately passed through the crowd and then smashed into the net.
The opposing goalkeeper is feeling the same way Joe Hart did before.
There's no way to catch that...
"It was a terrible day for the goalkeeper."
"Dybala would be a game-changer in the Europa League."
“We all know that he is a player who can be a core player in higher-level competitions.”
Coincidentally, the commentator at the scene happened to be a Dybala fan.
He had been paying attention to this player since he was just starting to gain some fame, and he believed that he was destined for great things.
He later regretted Dybala's transfer to Burton.
What a great player, only to end up with a team that's just been promoted to the Premier League...
But Burton's lineup was dazzling.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic!
David Lewis!
Joe Hart...
It doesn't look like a newly promoted team's lineup at all.
With Dybala joining the team, they are even more at ease in the game.
Aside from the fact that the squad is not as deep as Manchester City's and some players are getting older, he couldn't find any other obvious flaws.
This season's outstanding performance is to be expected.
"I predict that their players' market value will also skyrocket."
"By the way, have you heard of their starting left-back James Justin from last season?"
After another commentator chimed in, the topic shifted in a different direction.
The outcome of this match is pretty much decided; barring any unforeseen circumstances, we can talk about other things.
"of course."
"That player has been performing exceptionally well recently."
"He racked up eight assists for Arsenal in less than half a season!"
"He's currently second in the Premier League assist rankings..."
