Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 104: Owned and lost

Latest website: Every time the Leeds City players have possession of the ball, the cheers that sounded over the Flanders stadium reminded the Madrid Pirates' players:

All the warmth before the game no longer exists, or it was temporarily restrained.

This is really the home of Leeds City, and definitely not the grand party of Hu Lai returning home.

In fact, when the pirate players re-established this perception, the game became normal and ordinary for them.

After they used their advantage in possession to withstand the indiscriminate bombing of Leeds City, they gradually gained the upper hand in possession of the ball.

Started to put pressure on Leeds City's goal.

However, in this process, the pirates appeared very cautious, step by step, steady fight.

Basically, there will not be a sudden swarm of rushes to chase and fight.

But if they find that the situation is not right, they immediately take it back, pass the football back, and rewind.

Of course, this method of Madrid pirates is not a panacea, on the contrary, it is actually very hidden.

Because their midfielder does not have a strong enough commander.

This makes them lack a bit of aura in the process of transmission, and strain is a little bit close.

Of course, they can rely on Parotti's coaching team to develop a smooth pass and control tactics in training, but if they encounter a strong enough opponent, or the situation is difficult to deal with, the tactics will not run smoothly.

Head coach Parotti himself knows the shortcomings of his tactic.

This is why he really thinks that Maxi Carey can coexist with Hulay, because they really don't conflict.

Parotti worked hard to persuade Carey to change his playing style after the injury, less solo by speed, and more passing and control using his skills and experience. It is also hoped that Carey can complement the most critical link in the Madrid Pirates in the frontcourt series organization.

In fact, Parotti did not adopt the transmission control system in Madrid from the very beginning.

His tactical style is the same as his image, it looks a little vague and not clear enough.

Li Qingqing's description of him was really sharp and accurate.

The tactical thinking of Ettore Parotti, the Italian coach, is like water. Water is impermanent, and his tactics can also be changed and transformed according to the situation. Water sometimes looks gentle and can be destructive at all. No, but it can dig through mountains and change the land, so the water can also become very violent.

He led the team to the UEFA Europa League in the first season of succeeding Hantcheck. At that time, the tactics of the Madrid Pirates were actually very simple, that is, to use the two sideways, and then rely on Carey's super personal ability.

The effect is surprisingly good.

Because Maxi Carey is considered to be the first person under the "Four Kings" by no means to lose his name, he is really strong at his peak-if he is not injured before the World Cup and leads the Dutch team to the World Cup For the champion, I believe that the "four kings" must be rearranged, and Cerrados will be replaced by Carey.

But he happened to be injured at the most important time.

When Carey was seriously injured before the World Cup and missed almost half of the season, Parotti realized that last season's successful routine could not be replicated and he had to make changes.

At that time, many people were desperate about Carey's performance after a serious knee injury, thinking that this man was already abolished.

Take it away, it's no help.

But unlike these people, Parotti thought that Carey could be rescued again. And he believes that as long as Carey can change his playing style, the length of his career will not be lost, and he can still play a very important role.

Even extreme... he can still be the core of this team.

In Parotti's original vision, the Phoenix Nirvana Kaili will become the center of the pirates' center and frontcourt, and he has to lay a platform for him to play.

So the team has to change the tactical concept.

Use pass control and high position pressure to attack.

In the end, who would have thought that the superstar Kaili had a different temper. Even if he hit the South Wall once and didn't look back, he still insisted on playing in the way he was used to before.

The result was that he was injured again.

Although it was not a recurrence of an old knee injury this time, it also made him miss the game for half a season again.

The most important part of the team's tactical system has not been able to return to its place. In this season and a half, the Madrid Pirates had to use this incomplete transmission and control to deal with it.

So last season's Madrid pirates finally hit the basket, and they didn't get any honor-the league champion belongs to Catalonia, the Copa del Rey champion belongs to the Madrid Kings, and the Champions League they stopped in the quarter-finals.

Although the start of the new season went smoothly, without Hulai’s sudden outbreak, the Madrid Pirates would still have a hard time going this season.

Parotti certainly knows his team's problems, so in addition to passing control, the Madrid Pirates also focus on wing attack.

This is the tradition before the pirates.

But there is also a problem with the Madrid Pirates' wing attack, that is, they are lame...

In fact, the pirates of Madrid also flew on both sides.

It's just that the original right midfielder Martin Losada won the Europa League with the team and was dug out of the blue and white Munich by his former coach Hantcheck.

The original right back of the Pirates, the team's former captain, French international Corantin Kilic, also announced his retirement after playing in the 2025-2026 season.

The original two main forces on the right, one walking and the other retreating, caused the two wings of the Madrid pirates to fly together and suddenly only Tonini and Ion on the left were left.

Ira Susta's ability is relatively average, which is pretty good, but he has just joined the team and has not yet fully integrated.

Silviglio has come for a season, but his performance has been up and down, just like the Leeds City players at the beginning of the season.

This caused the Madrid Pirates to attack from the right side sometimes and not, which can be called "Schrödinger's right wing".

So strictly speaking, the Madrid pirates today is not the final form in Palotti's mind.

If last season's Madrid Pirates met last season's Leeds City, then maybe Leeds City can beat the Pirates at home.

But because of fate, some interesting changes have taken place between the two teams.

Hulay, who played for Leeds City, left the team and came to the Madrid Pirates.

The balance of power between the two parties has thus changed.

※※※

Leeds City failed to score again within ten minutes after the goal, and the initiative of the game gradually fell to the visiting team's pirates.

As the assistant coach Valentin analyzed, Leeds’ offense was quite a bit of an opener posture.

As long as it can withstand these three axes, the threat of Leeds without Hulai will be greatly reduced.

Of course, the pirates' offensive methods are not too many.

But they have a Hu Lai.

An efficient killer.

Before, Leeds always enjoyed the many benefits that this efficient killer brought them.

And now it's their turn to experience the feelings of their former opponents.

Tonini was cycling on the wing, but Leeds right-back Josh Lawler was unmoved in front of him.

The Brazilian didn't want to get past Lawler with such a simple and perfunctory action, he was waiting for Ion.

Sure enough, when he stepped on the third, Ion jumped in from behind at high speed, while also bringing Leeds City's right forward Solberg.

While Yon was plugged in at high speed, Lawler remained unmoved, and seemed to be relieved to hand Yon to Solberg. He was only responsible for staring at Tonini in front of him.

Tonini passed the football to Yon.

Yon speeds up to chase the football.

It seems that he wants to dribble the ball through Leeds City's defense and then pass, or cut inside.

But just as he caught up with the football, he used the outer instep of his right foot to gently swing the football sideways...

The football rolled past Solberg who was chasing, and rolled behind the Sweden international. It happened to be in the gap between Thorberg and Josh Lawler.

And this gap now belongs to Di Kunzo!

The Italian striker is short but very flexible at his feet. He got into the penalty area while catching the ball.

Morikawa Junpei, who defended him, originally wanted to stretch his foot to intercept the ball, but when he saw him slip into the penalty area, he immediately raised his hands and slammed the brakes.

But he didn't stop here. He raised his hands not to surrender, but to express his innocence to the referee.

The sudden brake is also to avoid physical contact with the opponent, thereby giving Di Kunzo a chance to fall in the penalty area.

After the emergency brake, Junpei Morikawa started again, catching up and letting the shovel go!

He wasn't trying to shovel DiCunzo, but shoveled beside DiCunzo-he had already seen DiCunzo swing his left leg when he caught up again. The posture was about to cross and he wanted to stop. This ball!

But he failed.

Although he has worked very hard to chase back, he also worked very hard to release the shovel.

The football passed before he shoveled.

Morikawa Junpei's eyes followed the football into the penalty area, and he was aware of the great danger.

really!

He caught the figure in the corner of his eye.

He first made a gesture to run over to meet the football, but just after the start, he suddenly stopped, and at the same time bowed back, swaying Leeds center back Vaughan Acheson.

But at the same time, because of his forward feint, the football passed behind him.

He can't shoot directly!

This doesn't seem to be too rare for that figure.

As he shook Acheson, he immediately turned around, instead of trying to stop the ball~www.readwn.com~, he raised his right leg and chased the football over!

Keep the ball, turn around and shoot directly!

He was so quick that everyone didn't expect it.

For example, Leeds City’s other central defender, Ben Grist, was standing next to him stupidly at this time, not thinking about coming up to block the shot for the first time.

Leeds City goalkeeper Van Deven didn't realize that it was a shot just now until the football was shot at the goal!

It's too late for him to make a save again!

The football flies into the goal from diagonally above his saver!

The Flanders stadium exploded suddenly, with great momentum, but it was neither cheering nor booing, but the cheers of the pirate fans in their early thousand years were particularly obvious.

In the thirty-first minute, Hu Lai scored!
