Chapter 52 Oolong

After replacing two tall central defenders, Lyon's backfield air defense ability has finally improved. After the backfield stabilized, their frontcourt Di Maria and Pianic began to be active again. Lin Fenglei took over and replaced Kadingho and Lima, Meyer and Ivanovic. Since then, the two sides have fought. The victory was mainly concentrated in the midfield. It is often seen that the players of both sides were shoveled in the midfield, and the referee's whistle was also frequently sounded, and the game was often interrupted. Finally, at the end of the game in 90 minutes, the two sides shook hands 2:2.

However, judging from the expression of the head coaches of the two sides after the game, Lin Fenglei was obviously satisfied with the result, but Puer frowned.

The Swiss media coincidentally applaud Gosho this time, believing that Gosho, who drew with his opponent at 2:2 away, has entered the next round of knockout stage with one foot. Lin Fenglei was not so optimistic. He said in an interview with reporters, "I don't think we will definitely advance. Lyon is a great opponent. We have to do our best when we return home to eliminate them."

On March 11, Gosau returned to home against the third St. Garren in the league. St. Garren is now 6 points behind Gosau and 3 points behind Zurich. Therefore, as long as they defeat Gosau in this game, they can still retain the hope of winning the championship. On the contrary, if they lose to Gosau, they will basically withdraw from the championship. Listed. Morinini recovered from his scar and forgot the pain. He began to provoke Gosho again: "The Gosho team is now tired. Recently, they have lost a lot of points in a row, so St. Garen will definitely defeat Gosho in this game and smash their dream of winning the championship."

Lin Fenglei is too lazy to pay attention to this guy now. He just threw the newspaper with Morinini's comments in front of the players, and the players began to scream. They must teach him a good lesson in the game.

So in the game, Morini was once again beaten like an earthy face. Esposito scored two goals, Ivanovic scored a goal, and Egman in the second half scored a goal. Gosho beat St. garren 4-0. Looking at Morinini's dull eyes, Lin Fenglei couldn't bear to stimulate him any more, but unexpectedly, Morini did not attend the post-match press conference for physical reasons.

On March 15, Gosho continued to play against Lyon at home for the second round of the second round of the knockout match of the UEFA Cup. This game is still broadcast live by Swiss National Sports One. Ralph introduced the lineup of the two sides: "The formation of Gosho is exactly the same as the last game, and we noticed that Lyon changed a central defender, and Bodemer, who was 1.90 meters tall, replaced Lemeu to start. It seems that Coach Puer also noticed The lack of the team's air defense capability has been adjusted in this game.

After the start of the game, Gosho first launched the attack with the advantage of the home court, and Lyon's tactics were mainly defensive, but Lin Fenglei did not ask the back line to press on today, but let them all stand in their own defensive position. At home, he has to make sure that he doesn't lose the ball, and in today's game, Gosho can advance as long as he doesn't lose the ball. There are not many requirements for scoring, so his tactics are still very cautious.

Although he was very cautious, an accident still made Gosho lose the ball first. In the 14th minute, after Gosho attacked the front court, the Lyon defender cleared the ball into the penalty area of the Gosho team in the front court. Salihovic clung to Lyon's single striker Gomi, Ann Tunović was ready to head the ball to the back waist Kabanas, but when he just exerted his strength, he tripped over a protruding turf under his foot. He suddenly lost his balance and fell back. The ball rubbed against his head and changed direction, and unexpectedly flew to the lower left corner of the goal. The goalkeeper Wright was completely unprepared. He stared at the ball slowly flying into the goal.

"Wow, the own ball, Antunović's own goal, Antunović, who has always been stable, has made a big mistake. Let's take a look at the slow motion. We can notice the close-up of the moment Antunović fell. There was a raised turf under his feet, which made him trip. Gosho's home court conditions are really too bad, which is not in line with their current status. After accidentally losing the ball, let's see how the situation on the field will change.

Puer, who was overjoyed, immediately waved his hand, which made all the players retract and officially launched a defensive counterattack. Originally, after learning that he had drawn Gosho's opponent, he was a little contemptuous and thought that it would be an easy opponent to deal with, but after watching the video of Gosho's game, he found that Gosho did not seem to be so easy to deal with. After the last game, he found that Gosho was a man who could eat people. Hu, now he has completely put away any contempt for his opponent, but put Gosau and Lyon in a completely equal position, and played relatively pragmatic and even conservative tactics.

Losing a ball like this made Lin Fenglei look a little ugly. This disrupted his tactical deployment, but he did not blame Antunović, because after all, people are not machines, and it is impossible not to make mistakes at all, and the mistake just now was largely due to the problem of turf. He stood on the sidelines and waved to the players to strengthen the offensive.

Kufre and Gugelman began to take turns to insert assists, and Antunowich began to push forward to the midfield frequently. Anyway, Lyon left only one striker Gomi in the front court. Salihovic can do it alone. Besides, there is a Kabanas behind him to fill the position. Antunović now just wants to make up for the team.

Antunović's front insertion into the midfield did disrupt Lyon's defensive deployment. Lyon's midfielder was originally a pair with Gosho's midfielder, and he could barely defend it, but Gosho's midfield suddenly had an extra midfielder, and his attack power was not weak, and it was suddenly a little difficult to deal with. When Lima was entangled by the back of the opponent, the Gosho team also had an extra ball point in the midfield, and the tactics suddenly seemed much more flexible.

Antunović's running ability is extremely strong. After the front insertion, he seemed to be very active in the front court. In more than ten minutes, he passed several threatening balls, and there was a very threatening long-range shot. He was extremely powerful. He was held by Loris, who was focused. After hitting the crossbar, he popped out the bottom line, and then the corner kick. It was also directly damaged and did not pose much threat. However, now Lyon's defense line is already left and right, embarrassed, and there is no room to fight back.

This period of Gosho's offensive can be said to be completely related to Antunović's personal forward insertion, which also provides a new idea for Lin Fenglei on the sidelines. Maybe the central defender's insertion of assists can be used as a surprising winning tactic in the future. After all, Antunović's advance The offensive ability is not weak, and it is also a waste to be idle. When he can't start the situation, his plug-in also makes the team's attack one more changes.

In the 40th minute, Gosho's unremitting attack finally received a reward. Egman got the ball on the left side of the penalty area. The opponent's two defenders forced up and forced Egman out of the penalty area. Seeing that there was no chance, Egman turned back to carry the ball. When he took it to the corner of the penalty area, he passed the ball to Antunović. Antunović made a slight adjustment and shot angrily. The ball quickly rushed into the lower left corner of the goal through the dense crowd in the penalty area with the turf. It was too late for Loris, who was blocked by the defender, to see the ball.

GOOOOOOOOOOOL! Antunović's world wave, Loris, who had performed well before, had almost no response, and the ball got into the dead corner. Gosho equalized the score. Antunović, who had scored an own goal before, made up for it. He looked very excited and ran to the edge of the court to hug his head coach Lin Fenglei. Haha, you know, Antunović has never been so excited before. Every time he scored a penalty, he was expressionless and never celebrated. It seems that the previous own goal put him under a lot of pressure.

Lin Fenglei slapped Antunovic on the back. He knew why the disciple he valued so much was so excited. Antunovich was usually very low-key, but he was very concerned about his performance. If the team lost the ball because of his mistake, he would be unhappy for a long time, and then improved it with more hard training. He himself, let alone scored an own goal in such an important game this time. Of course, he held his breath and wanted to make up for it. Now that he has finally got what he wants, it is understandable to be so excited.

All 3,000 Gosho fans were also cheering, shouting for Antunović's wonderful goal and his perseverance.

Now his bad face has become Lyon's head coach Puer. If this score is maintained to the end, it will be Lyon who will be eliminated. However, there is not much time before the end of the first half, and he has no time to make any adjustments. After the last five minutes of the first half, the two sides entered the half-time break.

After the start of the second half, Puer replaced two strikers in a row. He replaced Argentine striker Lopez and 21-year-old Tafel with the back-back Turalan and right-back Abu de Saadki, playing the fateful three-forward tactics. Lin Fenglei also made targeted adjustments immediately, and he replaced Codin with Chevali. Huo, with three centre-backs against Lyon's three strikers, and replaced Lima with Meyer to strengthen the defense of the midfield. Now Lin Fenglei feels that he is becoming more and more utilitarian, but the utilitarian situation is the best choice. If he changes the attacking player and the opponent as tit-for-tat as before, the game will be good, but if he loses or plays a big draw, Gosho will be eliminated. Therefore, Lin Fenglei will not take risks in such an important League Cup knockout match. Maybe this is the champion brought by defense, Lin Fenglei thought to himself.
