Chapter 39

When the football flew into the goal, everyone present was stunned, even Mendieta didn't expect his first shot and scored.

The goal seems...too easy, right?

Then he realized that he really scored a goal, and Valencia led Real Madrid at home!

Before the game, the media were analyzing how difficult this game was for Valencia. The reasons they cited were so convincing that Mendieta couldn't help but nod his head in agreement.

But he didn't expect that in the game, Valencia led Real Madrid so easily!

You know, the game has only started for fourteen minutes at this time!

Before he could continue to be surprised, he was overwhelmed by the excited teammates.

※※※

On the sidelines, when Mendieta slammed the football into the Real Madrid goal, Chang Sheng raised his arms and pointed to the sky. And everyone on the bench behind him jumped up.

They raised their arms and shouted, or embraced passionately.

The same goes for the bench.

Valencia's coaches and players vented their emotions.

None of them expected that the team could take the lead so early.

Although they made a lot of efforts and work for this game before the game, they didn't dare to think that they could lead Real Madrid so easily.

Rudy Gonzalez rushed over and hugged Chang Sheng: "Seeing this scene, how do you feel, Chang?"

"How damn good!" Chang Sheng said with a smile.

Fitness coach Elias Dominique also came up and patted Chang Sheng on the shoulder: "I'm sure this is a big cause!"

Chang Sheng smiled: "Don't worry, Elias. This is just the beginning!"

Rudy Gonzalez put his arms around Chang Sheng and said loudly: "Yes, this is just the beginning!"

After coming out of Getafe, he was not depressed because of leaving his hometown. On the contrary, he was full of expectations for the unknown future. He has been at Getafe for thirteen years,

It was too long to stay.

It has lost its freshness for a long time.

He had always thought that he would stay at Getafe all the way to retirement, and there was nothing wrong with that.

But when he followed Chang Sheng out of Getafe, he discovered why Chang Sheng had to leave.

Because the scenery outside... is indeed better than Getafe.

He is now full of longing for the outside world.

What kind of future will we create?

"Mendieta - L!!! Mendieta! Gaizka Mendieta! He scored a beautiful goal! Only fourteen minutes into the game, Valencia took the lead! You know their The opponent is Real Madrid!"

The narrator Moen exclaimed.

What surprised him wasn't that Valencia took the lead at home against Real Madrid, which was nothing. In the 99-00 season, Valencia also defeated Real Madrid 3:2 away.

What surprised Mohn was that 14 minutes had passed since the start of the game, and Valencia scored a goal, and they had the upper hand!

The dignified defending champion Real Madrid faced Valencia and could only retreat, unable to fight back. In these fourteen minutes, although they had some counterattacks, the advantage was clearly on Valencia's side.

Even a fool who doesn't understand football can see that Valencia has the upper hand.

This is obviously because of Valencia's new tactics...

Unexpectedly, a tactical change could bring such a big change to Valencia...

※※※

Florentino, the president of Real Madrid Club, was still smiling before the start of the game, and greeted others politely.

But when the game started, he put his whole body into the game, and his face gradually became dignified.

Even if he doesn't understand football, such a simple thing can be seen.

He knows his team is at a disadvantage in the game.

More importantly, it is not as simple as being at a disadvantage.

But in the game, he saw that Valencia's attack was obviously aimed at Pavon.

Valencia's winger is clearly very sharp, but in this game, last season's main player Vicente has become a marginal figure.

Whether it is Mendieta or Ibrahimovic, or even the midfielder Aimar, they are all looking for trouble for Pavon.

The conceded ball suddenly saw that it was not Pavon who lost the ball, but it was actually Pavon's responsibility!

Because Pavon couldn't hold on alone, Hierro went up to help him.

This gave Valencia an opportunity to take advantage of.

Florentino is not as ignorant of football as the outside world said, he can still see such a simple thing.

That's why his face is so ugly.

If you really don't see it, it's better.

Now, watching Valencia, from players to coaches, is celebrating.

Florentino's complexion became even more ugly.

He rang out the wild words that Chang Sheng said before the game.

"...Since Mr. Florentino firmly believes that Pavon can do it, then I don't mind showing everyone how Pavon can't..."

This is what Chang Sheng said at the pre-match press conference.

He didn't take it to heart when he first heard it.

But now, when he remembered this sentence again, it meant... This sentence hit his weakness.

Under Valencia's fierce offensive, Pavon, whom he had placed high hopes on, was in a state of embarrassment and his performance was appalling.

With a straight face, he clenched his two fists on his knees.

※※※

Bosque stood up from his seat.

He doesn't care about conceding goals. After all, Valencia itself is not weak, and it is playing at home. Real Madrid can't let the opponent not score a goal.

There are many reasons for him to stand up in surprise.

For example, the power of Valencia's tactics, or Pavon...

He used to think that what Chang Sheng said to Pa Wen was just a simple war of words. As long as he ignored the other party, the other party would naturally die down.

But looking at it now...he was wrong.

It's not a war of words!

He never expected that Pavon would become a breakthrough for the opponent to take advantage of!

Bosque was the coach who had brought Pavon. At that time, he was still in the echelon and was not the head coach of Real Madrid's first team.

He knows Pavon very well, this is a very talented young man who is also brave enough to challenge, and he has shown his quality in this aspect when he was in Real Madrid's C and B teams.

So Bosque thought about it carefully, and attributed it to Pavon's first La Liga game, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

He thought that as long as he continued to give Pavon opportunities, Pavon would gradually improve himself in the competition.

At that time, it will not be easy for Valencia to use Pavon as a breakthrough.

Now he feels that what he should consider is not Pavon, but how to get back the score.

Real Madrid's situation is not good, because their proud attack was suppressed by Valencia's offensive. In these fourteen minutes, Real Madrid's few counterattacks failed to threaten Canizares' defense. goal.

This is obviously not acceptable.

But it is not that simple to score Valencia's goals.

Through these ten minutes of observation, Bosque has already understood that Valencia is a whole. They play together when attacking, and the same is true when defending.

Even a center like Zlatan Ibrahimovic has to play defense, let alone anyone else.

Of course, requiring offensive players to contribute in defense does not mean that they have to retreat to the backcourt, which will consume their physical energy and waste time.

The winning method is to require every player to press aggressively in the frontcourt.

As long as the Real Madrid players have the ball, two or three Valencia players will come forward.

This is so similar to when he led Getafe to play Mallorca.

This kind of pressing made the Real Madrid players very uncomfortable.

As for their impression of Valencia, there is a big gap.

Not to mention that Valencia is now playing offside tactics...

They had fewer counterattacks, and they fell into the opponent's offside trap twice.

Bosque has been able to confirm that this is a replica of Chang Sheng's tactics in the last game of Getafe... no, it is a mature version.

The player's familiarity with this set of tactics is obviously better than Getafe.

At the same time, Valencia surpassed Getafe by a large margin in terms of personal strength and overall strength in the fifth round. When they use this tactic, the power is naturally greater than Getafe.

Since Getafe can beat Mallorca 3:1 with that tactic, why can't Valencia lead Real Madrid with this tactic?

How to break this set of tactics, Real Madrid's head coach Bosque has no idea at all.

※※※

The moment Mestalla scored for Mendieta, there was a huge cheer.

But after the cheers, the Valencia fans suddenly realized-was their cheers for Mendieta? Or was it given to this Chinese coach?

From the very beginning of the game, Valencia fans found that the football played by this Valencia team was completely different from before.

Although they had seen some rudiments of tactics in the warm-up match, they always had doubts in their hearts, wondering if it would work.

You must know that Valencia has been playing defensive counterattacks for several seasons before, and it has almost become their label.

Some media once commented on Valencia, saying that they are an Italian team in Spain.

Relying on this Italian style, they broke into the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons.

This set of tactics is successful and mature.

Why does the new head coach have to change tactics as soon as he comes up?

Many fans do not understand or are even dissatisfied.

It is very unwise to think that Chang Sheng, the new coach, just wants to erase the traces left by his predecessor.

Unexpectedly, in the first league game of the new season, Valencia actually scored a goal in the first 14 minutes of the game relying on the new tactics of Changsheng!

How is this going?

This kind of tactic that looks like a headless chicken is actually so powerful?

Many people in the stands of Mestalla were dumbfounded, and the stadium fell into a short and strange silence...
