Chapter 66 Outbreak of Im
In the thirtieth minute of the game, Jiang Mu's substitution received a miraculous effect.
Right defender Suleiman went down at a high speed, Kuit and Adrian cut out, and Im rushed from the midfield to the penalty area. Alkmaar actually formed a good situation of four-to-three under the encirclement of his opponent.
Suleiman passed the ball to Kuite. After five games of running-in, Kuite and Suleiman are now very tacit. Suleiman passed the ball to him. He made a wall-style cooperation, directly passed the ball to the back of the full-back, and played a classic combination of hitting the wall two-to-one.
Suleiman caught up with the ball on the bottom line and hooked the ball to the penalty area.
Kuit rushed to the top in front and didn't reach it, but shook the defender and Im in the middle, and no one touched the ball.
Adrian, who was at the back, waited straight. He jumped up against the ball on the right side of the goal and smashed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.
Helmond's goalkeeper sealed the lower right corner of the goal, but Adrian's rush was in front of him. He couldn't even have time to react, and the ball hit their feet and flew into the net.
1:0.
Alkmaar took the lead away from home.
"A wonderful goal!"
"God! This guy's tricks have worked wonders again.
"goooooooal..."Adrien..."
"... Jiang Mu's decisive change, he won the bet! Adrian broke the deadlock!"
Jiang Mu jumped up and kept waving his fists. This substitution was also an adventure for him. He didn't know whether it could work. If not, he would change people in 30 minutes, using his own opportunity to change.
Adrian, who scored the goal, couldn't suppress his inner excitement. He turned around and rushed to Suleiman, who passed the ball to him, and hugged him. Then he pulled him to the ground hard.
"Thank you, Suleiman! Thank you!"
"Adrian, well done!"
Another player jumped up, and then more teammates jumped up, layer by layer. Even the head coach Jiang Mu didn't let go.
"Suleiman assisted Adrian... Alkmaar's defender passed a beautiful arc ball... This is a key goal. Previously, Perez's tactics made Alkmaar unable to get close to Hermond's door, and Jiang Mu's formation just restrained Perez. In the fight between the two coaches, Jiang Mu It has the upper hand and has the initiative of the game... In the other two games, Emmon and Campbell have not scored, and the score is still 0-0. If this score ends the game, Alkmaar will jump to the top of the table...
After a short celebration, the game restarted. Helmond's head coach did not make a fundamental adjustment to the team, but let his players keep an eye on Alkmaar's three strikers and not let them pass the midfield easily.
Peres hasn't seen the mystery of Jiang Mu's formation. He thought that the attack just now was just a temporary change. In fact, he didn't know this kind of full-back assist. The change of winger's internal cut is the norm of this formation. In later generations, this is a very common and mature tactic.
At the beginning of the game again, Helmond is still restrained. Their troops are concentrated in the midfield, while Alkmaar's troops are the conventional 433 formation without the ball. In the state of the ball, it immediately becomes a nearly 262 full attack formation. This change looks very big. In fact, it is the winger trained by Jiang Mu. The combination of internal cutting tactics and full-back assists.
Im is the victim of this tactical adjustment. The team focuses on both sides, pulling and grabbing two wingers. After his position retreating, it almost coincides with Arti Dorre. Al Tidore is mainly responsible for the connection and organization of the front and back fields, and his role is to plug in. With the offense and front-court organization, the chances of scoring goals have been greatly reduced.
Although Im accepts this arrangement, he still wants to score goals. He has now scored 24 goals and is likely to become the best scorer in the Eerste Divisie.
The ball passed to Im's feet. Im should have divided the ball, but Alkmaar played on the side several times in a row. Helmond's players paid great attention to the side, but the middle defense was a little looser.
Im didn't pass the ball. He just made a pass and suddenly started. He went straight into the penalty area from the middle. Helmond's central defender was attracted to the side by a series of passes just now. He was running back, and only one central defender was stuck in the position.
Im is not tall and has a low center of gravity. In the middle of running with the ball, he changed the direction of the ball and wanted to shake away the opponent's central defender.
Helmond central defender Yang Sen is experienced. He has not been deceived by Im's change of direction. He took the opportunity to follow Im and wait for the opportunity to steal.
Im saw that he could not break through, so he immediately pulled the ball back to prevent it from being robbed by the opponent. Then he changed his foot to the other side to push the ball to the other side, and then raised his foot and shot.
Just as Im made two pulling moves, Helmond's defender had arrived. A defender stretched out his foot in front to intercept, and the defender behind him reached out and pushed behind Im's back.
Im was about to shoot, but he was pushed and staggered forward. The ball didn't know where it was, and his body also hit the interceptor's lap and fell into the penalty area.
Im raised his hand to signal his opponent to foul him, and Alkmaar's front-court players also raised their hands to signal to the referee, but the referee ignored it and signaled the game to continue.
Alkmaar's players were very dissatisfied and gathered around to protest to the referee.
When Jiang Mu saw this scene, he asked the players to come back loudly on the sidelines. Don't argue with the referee. It will never be good to argue with the referee at this time. At most, it will add some bad impressions to the referee.
Helmond goalkeeper Bigfoot will open to the front court, hoping to launch an attack directly from the front court through the numerical advantage of the midfield.
The ball was intercepted by Enko in the midfield. He quickly split the sides and continued to attack through the side.
Kuyt was stared at by his opponent. After receiving the ball, he could not turn around. The full-back had not kept up at this time, so he had to pass the ball to the middle to organize.
There were a lot of people in the midfielder of Helmond, and the opponent who received the ball gathered around. The ball could not pass forward, and there was only the way back. Artidore is worthy of the core of the team. Seeing that his passing route was cut off, he passed the ball to Im, who was not far away, and quickly broke through the encirclement of his opponent.
Im knew that as long as the ball was stopped, he would be entangled. He was very smart and did not stop the ball. As soon as he lifted it with his instep, the ball flew out of the encirclement of the Helmond player and fell on the running route of Arti Dore.
Artidore's speed has risen, and he quickly inserted the ball forward and went straight to Helmond's penalty area.
At this moment, Artidore has dodged the heavy area of the Helmond midfield, facing two central defenders, and there are two wingers on both sides. The attacking force is no less than the opponent's defense.
Helmond's two central defenders, one on the top and the other on the card, trying to intercept Altedore.
Artidore was not greedy. He immediately divided the ball and passed it to Kuit.
Because Alkmaar counterattacked after stealing, the full-back did not keep up. Kuite faced the opponent's full-back alone. At this moment, there is a defensive player in front of each player. The danger of passing the ball is high, and after passing, teammates also need to break through to open the gap in the opponent's defense.
Kuyt decisively shook the ball with a fake action and went straight to the bottom line.
Kuyt's preemptive start is very fast, and Helmond's defender must use the fastest speed to catch up.
When he was about to reach the bottom line, Kuyt did not pass the ball, but stepped on the ball and stopped, trying to get rid of the opponent's defender and cut into the penalty area from the bottom line.
Helmond's defenders are all old deep-fried dough sticks that have been honed in the professional arena for many years. How can they not pay attention to this? When Kuit stopped urgently, the Helmond defender was shaken down, but at the moment of falling to the ground, he stretched out his foot and knocked Kuyt down.
Kuyt also reacted quickly. When he fell to the ground, he poked the ball with his foot and flew to Im in front of him.
Im played the ball horizontally, and then raised his foot to hit it.
When Im stepped forward, there was a central defender in front of his opponent, but the horizontal dial was too critical. He directly dodged the defender in front of him, which was equivalent to facing the goalkeeper directly. With only 20 heads away from the fans, the probability of scoring a goal was quite high.
When Alkmaar fans in the stands saw Im's shot, they immediately stood up and couldn't wait to open their mouths to cheer.
The distance is too close.
Helmond's goalkeeper fell reflexively and waved his hand to the football.
The ball hit the goalkeeper's fingertips. The goalkeeper had no time to exert his strength. The ball changed slightly, but it still flew into the net.
2:0.
Im expanded the score for Alkmaar.
"GOAL!"
Alkmaar's cheers in the stands finally burst out, and then the applause sounded like thunder.
"goooooooooal...Im! It's Im again. Alkmaar's ace scorer has scored 25 goals. He surpassed his opponent, Emon's Novak, and reached the top of the scorer list. Under Jiang Mu's **, this sword became more and more sharp, becoming a deadly weapon for Jiang Mu to defeat the enemy..."
Seeing Im score the second goal, Jiang Mu was finally relieved. Now there is not much time left in the first half. The midfield is adjusting, and the second half is playing steadily. Two goals can ensure Alkmaar's victory.
Peres shook his head. Now he understands Jiang Mu's intention to change the formation, but he understands it too late. The opponent has led by two goals. In the case of similar or even slightly weaker strength, the two goals can almost sentence his team to death. Fortunately, it doesn't matter in this game. Losing is just a matter of face.
Soon, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half in the cheers of Alkmaar fans. Helmond's players bowed their heads and walked quickly to the player's corridor. They were not depressed that they were always at a disadvantage in the first half. The opponent's strength was already better than them. Strong, but not satisfied with the last goal. As long as they persist for a while, they can walk back to the locker room decently.
