Chapter 194 Unexpectedly! ? (Forty-Eight/15,513) The 8th More
Chapter 194 No surprise! ?
When they stepped on the field again, the Luton players felt inexplicably that their running seemed to be easier.
What is the reason?
No one got to the bottom of it, the players treated them as a break in midfield and Gao Bo's words gave them strength.
Even Roma's players didn't care much.
They attacked aggressively at the start of the second half!
And Luton's players are also very cooperative. As soon as they come up, they shrink in the backcourt and form three lines of defense in the penalty area and the front of the penalty area!
Gao Bo also set up an iron pass at the front of the penalty area!
The three midfielders no longer have the task of attacking, and their task is only one: defense! ! Protect the middle of the team in the top generation of the penalty area!
The wing is completely handed over to the full-backs and two wingers to participate in the defense!
This is a complete iron pass!
In addition to the three yellow cards, another card slot, Gao Bo, was also used for defense.
[Match card (green): The defensive position is increased by 15%, and the designated player "Jeffrey" can use it! 】
[Match card (green): header shot increased by 15%, designated player "Jeffrey" to use! 】
Roma's players quickly noticed that Luton had changed after the break compared to the second half of the first half.
Luton's defense stabilized under the dense accumulation of personnel. The dense central defense allowed Roma to play the ball to the wing and create a threat through crosses, but Jeffrey and Sol Campbell's frontal defensive performance Very good, they hit most of the high-altitude balls, and even if they didn't hit the ball, under their interference, Vucinic and Menez, Perotta, Pizarro and others who rushed into the penalty area. None of them were able to take advantage of the high-altitude ball.
Roma tried to pass the ground ball a few times, but facing the densely packed defenders in the penalty area, it was too difficult for the ground ball to pass into the penalty area.
"Luton started the second half with a full line of defense! They have almost all their players back in defense now!"
Roma continued to attack, and Ranieri didn't feel any surprise because of Luton's defensive posture. In Ranieri's view, this is normal!
If Luton presses out to attack, they will die faster!
But just on defense? Can they keep it up?
A smile appeared on Ranieri's face, and he looked at Gao Bo, who was looking handsome with his hands in his trouser pockets not far away.
It is undeniable that Gao Bo, who is tall and straight, has a resolute face and has the temperament of a tough guy!
But.... just having a good image is useless in the coaching industry.
In the second half of the first half, Luton's players had physical problems, which cannot be faked. Ranieri is very clear that according to the physical condition of the Luton players in the second half of the first half, they will not support it for a long time!
Even if it is a bus, there must be physical support. After all, placing a bus is not just about standing in the penalty area to defend. Any defensive line that has lost its elasticity is like a wooden stake. Even if the Luton players are shrunk in the penalty area, they have to frequently press out the recovery to prevent the Roma pass. The ball, the shot, and even the personal breakthrough of the Roma players.
These all require a lot of physical price!
If Luton has been so passive defensively, how long can they last with the energy they finally saved at half-time?
ten minutes?
Ranieri thought.
Up to twenty minutes!
Ranieri is already the most conservative estimate!
....
Twenty minutes later, Ranieri couldn't smile.
How can the Luton players on the field still be incapable of physical fitness?
They moved lightly, and Roma even struggled to get the ball into the Luton box.
Ranieri frowned.
Are they acting in the first half?
Isn't that right?
Roma's players are also full of depression, isn't it good that they are not physically fit?
De Rossi just got the ball,
Drinkwater rushed out, then squeezed his body, pushed De Rossi away and grabbed the ball, but De Rossi immediately reached for a foul and organized a potential counterattack opportunity for Luton.
De Rossi was shown a yellow card by the referee!
"Luton's defense is very good, their running is also very active, it seems that there is no physical problem in the first half..." Not to mention Roma's players, even Letkinson feels By accident.
In the end he could only attribute it to the fact that Luton's players got some sort of inspiration at half-time and then held on mentally in the second half.
Roma couldn't attack, they could only continue to press, and the two full-backs also pressed up.
At this time Ranieri has decided to make a substitution.
Okaka is warming up!
Ranieri still doesn't believe in Luton's performance in the second half of the first half - if they really are acting, it can only prove that Luton's players are all recruited from the Academy of Performing Arts.
They are running out of energy! Ranieri stood by his judgment.
After Okaka warmed up, Ranieri pulled Okaka and said something.
Just then, there were boos in the stadium.
Ranieri quickly looked up at the field!
"Luton's counterattack is here!!!!!!"
Letkinson shouted! !
At this time, Griezmann had dribbled the ball past halftime, and Luton fired three arrows! !
At this time, Roma's defensive players in the backcourt.... In addition to the goalkeeper, there are only two central defenders left! !
Luton three-on-two! !
Roma fans shrill boos resounding throughout the audience, and now this time, they can only use this method.
However, the sharp boos did not affect Luton's front three!
Griezmann passed the ball to Vardy, then moved forward himself.
Mex hesitated for a moment, and then decided to defend Vardy who had the ball, but Vardy also waited for him to come up to defend this time, and he immediately shoved the ball to Griezmann! !
Griezmann dribbled the ball all the way into the box, then crossed the ball to the left before another centre-back, Andreoli, stepped up to defend! !
Adam on the left was already ready, and he pushed the arch of his foot!
Football in the net! !
One to two! !
Luton is over the score again! !
Ranieri on the sidelines was stunned, and Roma's players were also stunned.
They didn't think of such a script before the start of the second half...
Just look at the Luton players who ran wildly to the front to celebrate. Are they still a little out of shape?
Gao Bo jumped up from the sidelines with a smug smile on his face.
What a surprise!
Ranieri never expected that Luton suddenly seemed to have plenty of physical fitness in the second half! !
"Beautiful counter attack!! Adam White helps Luton over the score!!"
Letkinson's voice came from the TV, and the TV screen was also replaying the process of Luton's goal just now. Luton fans in the pub were cheering too! !
At this moment, there was a desperate boo from the TV! ! !
The screen immediately switched to the live broadcast screen.
I only saw that Griezmann had already swung his right foot in the penalty area facing the goalkeeper!
The football flies past the goalkeeper once again!
One to three.....
Not to mention the Roma fans, even the Luton fans were stunned.
Somewhat in the second half.... so surprising! !
In the eighth update, there are two more chapters in the afternoon, and ten chapters are here again today. But I'm exhausted o(╯□╰)o
