Three Hundred and Forty-Three This Substitution Is Absolutely Perfect!
Antonio Valencia, Ecuador international, 22 years old.
In other teams at this age, he is a proper young player, not to mention a seedling that is carefully cared for, but it is definitely a rough jade that needs to be carved, but in Naples, all of this does not exist.
Not only that, Valencia also found that in this special team, he is considered a "veteran".
The average age of the starting lineup is less than 21 years old. Who would dare to believe such statistics?
Seeing this group of younger teammates, even Sanchez, who was only 19 years old, able to squeeze out of him and become the main force of the team, Valencia felt a little anxious.
Especially after experiencing the encounters between Villarreal and Wigan Athletic, he is even more worried about his future.
When he came to Naples, he began to become an important substitute for the team, got more opportunities to play, and his performance gradually improved. The head coach Gao Shen recognized his strength very much, and told him not to worry and encouraged him every time he communicated .
At the same time, Gao Shen also gave him some suggestions.
The first thing to bear the brunt is to ask him to find his own unique skills.
Relying on speed alone is not enough, you have to have your own unique skills.
"In China, there is a saying that is very suitable for you, one trick, you can eat it all over the world."
"That is to say, you have to practice a unique skill so that the opponent can't defend you no matter what."
Encouraged by Valencia, he began to wonder, what is he best at?
Gao Shen just gave him a suggestion, and made a cross from the bottom.
Fast speed, strong explosive power, good dribbling ability, and solid basic skills. As long as he can make a pass from the bottom, are you afraid that he will not be able to play a threat?
Gao Shen not only gave him advice, but also asked the technical coach Borrell to tailor some training programs for him, in order to strengthen his ability in this area and refine his skills in this area.
Whether it is bottoming or crossing, there are many details and skills.
Since then, Valencia has strengthened his training in this area, and Gao Shen frequently gave him opportunities to play in games, and he often rewarded the head coach with outstanding performances.
And tonight, he was once again replaced as a surprise player.
...
Cicinho, Brazil right back, right foot.
In the profound words of the head coach, "This is simply a natural target for you!"
After Valencia came on the field, looking at the Brazilian right back in front of him, he found that Cicinho's face really looked like a target. Looking at it, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Cicinho felt very strange.
Is this Ecuadorian kid stupid?
For no reason, after going on the court, doing nothing, just standing there foolishly, what is the situation?
Did he feel too much pressure and lost control of his emotions after coming off the bench to face himself as Cafu II?
"Hello," Cicinho called.
"Huh?" Valencia turned to look over.
"Should I give you some time, go down and take some medicine and come back?"
"Take medicine?" Valencia was a little annoyed, "You only take medicine, and your whole family takes medicine!"
After finishing speaking, he walked away angrily.
Cicinho was stunned, what the fuck, this bastard is not short-tempered?
But before he could react, Vidal dribbled the ball to instigate a counterattack, and then quickly passed it diagonally to Valencia on the right.
When Cicinho saw it, he immediately went to meet him.
Valencia stopped the ball and turned around, just in time to see Cicinho sticking towards him.
The Ecuadorian winger thought of Borrell's special training for him, especially the details that he told him to pay special attention to.
First a feint to confuse the opponent.
Valencia saw that Cicinho was really fooled.
The Brazilian is a right-footed player. When defending the left wing, he is at a disadvantage, and his reaction is naturally greater.
But Valencia suddenly poked the ball towards the bottom line, and he suddenly accelerated.
Cicinho felt that his eyes were blurred,
Immediately rushed to something bad, immediately turned around and chased after it.
But Valencia was faster. After catching up with the football before the bottom line, he made some adjustments. Before Cicinho approached, he glanced at the middle of the penalty area and passed directly with his right foot.
The point of this pass is at the front of the small penalty area, which is the most tangled position for the goalkeeper.
But Naples center Pellet forcibly broke through the defense of the two central defenders of Rome, and pressed Mex behind him in front of the goal. He jumped high and faced Valencia's cross, hitting the upper right corner.
Goalkeeper Doni was moving quickly to the center and left. Unexpectedly, Pellet would suddenly push up to the position where he was standing just now. He couldn't adjust his center of gravity for a while, and could only watch the ball enter the net.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Advanced magical substitution!"
"Valencia came on for a few minutes and sent out a wonderful assist to help Pellet make another victory."
"Two to zero!"
After Pellet scored the goal, he rushed out of the court excitedly, and other players followed suit.
The whole stadium is cheering for them!
"Napoli played a very rhythmic counterattack this time."
"Vidal launched a counterattack after stealing the ball. The speed was not fast, but he split the ball to the right in time and handed it to Valencia."
"We saw that Valencia deceived Cicinho with a fake move, and made a cross, which was very crisp."
"Pellet was obviously prepared, and he went straight in and scored with a header."
"Gao Shen said before the game that he has hidden a killer trick in this game, and now it seems that it is Valencia."
"Spalletti dared to let Cicinho play left with his right foot. In fact, he recognized that Naples' right winger Sanchez didn't often pass from the bottom, but Gao Shen hid a Valencia on the bench." Gu.鱃
"At the critical moment, the deep substitution gave Rome the most fatal blow!"
When Gao Shen saw Valencia's cross and Pellet scored with a header from the sidelines, he said "Yes!" calmly, turned around, and gave high-fives and hugs to his assistants one by one, celebrating the team's second goal. ball.
The overall situation is settled!
...
After leading 2-0, Naples consciously strengthened their defense and played more patiently.
Gao Shen also replaced Biglia with Parejo to strengthen the team's midfield possession.
With Thiago Mota behind, Parejo in the center and Pellet in front, Napoli began to patiently control the ball.
Rome is not reconciled to go back with a score of zero to two.
The Red Wolves still frequently attack Naples, while Naples uses passing and possession to mobilize and pull opponents, and does not directly confront Rome head-on.
In the 78th minute, Naples was once in the 30-meter area of their own side. After Thiago Motta intercepted the ball in time, he quickly sent a direct pass to the feet of Parejo in front.
After the Spanish teenager dribbled the ball forward, he quickly passed it to the right side of the penalty area.
Pellet quickly slanted into the right side of the penalty area, and after holding Juan with his body, he stopped Parejo's pick pass with his foot.
I saw the Italian center facing the right line, with his back to the penalty area, blocking Juan with his body, and after stopping his kick, he took advantage of the situation to make another pick.
This kick passed directly behind Juan.
Like a bolt of lightning, Valencia slanted up from the right rib of the penalty area, facing the pick pass sent by Pellet, and before it landed, he volleyed directly.
A muffled bang was heard at the scene, and the ball, like a missile, quickly hit the target and blasted into Rome's goal.
Three to zero!
Valencia himself did not expect that he scored a goal!
The Ecuadorian winger was so excited that he stood where he was, and was immediately stunned.
The Naples players also gathered around one after another, and everyone was happy for Valencia's goal.
The score of three to zero is absolutely amazing!
But the most important thing is that Gao Shen's substitution this time is absolutely perfect!
...
The entire St. Paul Stadium was cheering, completely boiling.
Gao Shen also laughed from ear to ear.
He found that the team's condition was really good.
When you are in a good state, you can have whatever you think, as if even God and luck are by your side.
It's like Naples' third attack, Pellet will pass with his back, and Valencia can volley, who would believe it?
But it just happened.
Not only the fans in the stands watched with gusto, but the coaching staff behind Gao Shen were also very satisfied.
Everyone is cheering for this goal.
"In this state, I am very confident to play Juventus away!" Gao Shen said confidently.
If there are any obstacles on the team's road to the Serie A championship, it is this wave of three consecutive rounds of the devil's schedule, which is the biggest test for Naples.
In the first round, he and Buenaventura adjusted the team's state to these three games. As a result, in November, the team ushered in a trough.
This time, Gao Shen got the help of Pintus, and the team also paid more attention to this aspect. I believe there should be no problem.
There will definitely be ups and downs in state, and it is inevitable for any team. The key is to be able to show state in key games.
This is the purpose of profoundly reforming the team's physical training.
Although Pintus joined halfway, the effect of intensive training during the winter break is still very good. I believe that the team's state in the second half can last longer and the state will be better.
After playing Rome, the next step is to point the sword at Juventus.
As long as they win the Bianconeri again, Gao Shen is only one step away from the Serie A championship.
Of course, he can only hide this ambition and lofty ambition in his heart.
The games have to be played one by one, and none of the Serie A teams are fuel-efficient.
As long as Naples is a little careless, the ship may capsize at any time.
Therefore, we still have to be cautious and play every game well.
...
"Guys, we are one big step closer to the championship!" When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Gao Shen couldn't hide his joy. He smiled and hugged his assistants one by one, celebrating the 3-0 home victory.
Afterwards, he hugged the players one by one, welcoming the group of fighting heroes off the field.
The players in Naples are also aware of the current situation of the team.
As long as the team keeps winning, the championship belongs to Naples.
As for this round of Inter Milan's game, there is no suspense. Inter Milan defeated Reggina 2-0.
Because this time Mancini faced Reggina at the team's centennial celebration, this game was arranged long ago, and Inter Milan will undoubtedly win.
Of course, this is not a match-fixing.
It's just that when people are celebrating, arrange a relatively sure opponent and give them three points.
This is called the beauty of adulthood!
Gao Shen didn't care at all, because he was already looking towards the next game.
"Alpi, here I come again!"
