Step by Step to Win

Chapter 347: Fear of the enemy

In just 30 minutes, Porto's originally thought of a good strategic opportunity was completely shattered by a header from Mandzukic. Unlike the away game, after Wolfsburg returned to his home court, whether it was momentum, tactics, or performance, it can be said that it has risen to more than one level. During the game, Porto was suppressed by the audience, and Wolfsburg’s offense quickly took effect. This allowed cheers to ring around the stadium. The Wolfsburg fans continued to cheer for the goal. They The victory made them heartfelt proud.

In the face of these cheers, Porto’s coach Victor Pereira looked at the situation with some anger. He shook his fist fiercely, trying to shout something to his players, but could not say anything.

He doesn't know what he should say, how should his team change to win? In this regard, he has no good solutions.

As the head coach of Porto, Victor Pereira's coaching results are still quite good. In the Portuguese Super League last year, he took Porto to the league championship, this year in the league, the results are still very good. The former assistant coach of Boas is obviously a very lucky man. He followed Boas to Porto and chose to stay in the team when Boas left England. Porto's strong lineup gave him the capital of fame. He led his team to the championship and became the champion coach. In other words, he embarked on the road to success for Mourinho and Boas.

However, the champion coach is not necessarily really a very good coach. Mourinho's road is not easy to walk, Boas is considered the closest to him, all came home at Chelsea. Class ended in embarrassment. As Boas’s assistant, Pereira is even worse in terms of ability. Although he has achieved very good results since taking office, people pay more attention to the outstanding players under him and treat him as a champion. The coach does not have much opinion.

The contract he signed with Porto is two years. Two years are about to expire. Porto doesn't seem to have any plans to renew, and other European teams don't seem to have the idea of ​​poaching him to coach. Until now. Only some teams in Asia want him to coach his own team, look at Mourinho, look at Boas, he is completely different from his predecessors.

To this. He once felt deeply dissatisfied. Everyone also wins the championship, why is your own inferior to others? However, only after facing the European war, his dissatisfaction will be answered. After the Champions League matches, he gradually understands where his gap lies.

For example, this time facing Wolfsburg is like that. The same is the champion coach of their respective leagues. When encountering an old guy like Magath, Pereira would only feel a deep weakness, and all his little tricks were seen through by the other party. Then he played tricks in a targeted manner. From the tactics, he seemed to have completely failed.

Find a tactical core in your team. Playing around him, and then everyone implements a very mature tactical system-such an approach, with top players, is naturally devastating when encountering an average team, but in the real strong dialogue. There are no targeted changes, no tactical adjustments. Want to use the same tactics to defeat opponents of the same level, it is completely to give hope to fate, only to fail.

The difference between a good coach and an average coach lies in a deeper understanding and knowledge of tactics. It is also a champion, but the difference is that he can reflect his unique tactical thinking in the game. With his own ideas, the coach is considered to be successful, and without these things, Porto wants to defeat Wolfsburg, it is really difficult.

In fact, it's not just tactics. Even if it's a Bibi player, Pereira doesn't think that he is the one who has the upper hand. Although the Porto players are indeed sought after by the world's biggest giants, all of them have a very strong reputation. From the former Falcao and Hulk to the current Ronaldo and Martinez, they will all be rich players in the future. No one doubts this. However, technically, Porto may be stronger, but in terms of spirit, Wolfsburg clearly surpasses Porto by too much.

On the field of the game, the game is still going on. The two sides are now 2-2. Although Wolfsburg relies on away goals, it is not particularly safe after all. If Porto scores another goal, they can make a comeback. Wolfsburg knows this well. They have the advantage to try to expand the score, but Porto did not give up the idea of ​​a comeback. The two sides are still fighting on the court.

On the field of the game, Ronaldo got the football again, but on the court, he was still fighting alone trying to score himself. He has not been able to establish a good connection with Martinez. He still hopes to score goals on his own and reverse the game.

J Luo's temper has always been a bit stubborn, and this Pereira also knows. After all, he is young, and he is used to playing downwind, it is difficult to adapt to setbacks, and his temper is not small when he plays. Facing the opponent's strict defense, J Luo is easy to make some mistakes because of long time attack. It's better to just want to attack by yourself like today.

Compared to last season, he didn't want to fake a penalty kick, and he didn't want to retaliate because he was guarded by the opponent. This is a big improvement. His character is growing, and he is becoming successful step by step.

However, compared to those of the other party, this growth is still too small. Looking at the players of Wolfsburg, Pereira can only feel envy: the players of Wolfsburg are not as good as Porto in terms of strength and reputation, but it is frightening to see their tacit understanding when they play on the court.

When Gao Shunyao moved forward, Mandzukic was behind him to support him. When Mandzukic had a chance, Gao Shunyao did not hesitate to pull the defender away and create opportunities for him. Matic swept back and forth in the backcourt, not at all discouraged by his lack of offensive tasks. Turan is said to have been on the left, but he moved to the right in order to coordinate with the two high center forwards.

Compared with the players on the Porto side, the players of Wolfsburg have a better tacit understanding. They know how to sacrifice, know how to cooperate, and they know how to consider the team instead of just paying attention to themselves. This kind of psychological quality is really mature enough.

There may be a few beasts destined to become the lion king among his players, but what he encounters is a group of hungry wolves who are good at cooperating.

Pereira is not surprised that the opponent can play like this. After all, thinking about the rumors about the opponent, he thinks all this is reasonable.

It is said that Magath once gave his team such a training class: he asked the players to run in the woods, and when the players all went for a run, he drained most of the players' drinking water. After returning from the run, the tired and panting players found that all their water had been drained, and Magath suggested at this time to let them share the remaining water.

When this practice was exposed by the media at the time, it was directly referred to by the media as madness. After intensive training, the players' drinking water was drained. This is completely a practice of not treating the players as human beings.

However, looking at how the Wolfsburg players cooperated and supported each other when they played on the stadium, Pereira suddenly understood Magath's thoughts.

His players' understanding of the word sharing is probably far beyond anyone. After what kind of training they have gone through, their players must understand what is the meaning of sharing their own opportunities-the famous coach is a famous coach after all, and their training methods are indeed different. Magath is not just an inhuman physical training maniac, he also has his own methods for the mental training that the Bundesliga is good at.

Of course, these methods cannot be learned by others—not to mention that they cannot be learned by others. Magath himself has big problems with these methods. It is said that after he did this at the time, the manager of Wolfsburg also came to him for an in-depth conversation, and think about his from time to time after class, the players of the team would celebrate with parties. You can also know how much these players hate. he. This is by no means an approach worth promoting. The coach and the players have made a too rigid relationship, which is also the biggest reason that restricts Magath from going further.

However, even if he doesn't go any further, his team is enough to beat Porto. And even if his players hated him and gritted their teeth with hatred, at least when facing himself, his team didn't let it go, but rather worked hard.

And a group of players who know how to cooperate and are willing to work hard are more terrible than the Warriors who fight alone~www.ltnovel.com~ And look at the opponent's offensive players, how is their strength worse than Porto? People say that Wolfsburg players are not as good as Porto, but in fact their performance is not bad at all.

The two strikers of Wolfsburg are indeed not considered top technical players. Their skills at their feet are fairly average. Neither of them has the fine skills of Dzeko back then. They dribble and move around. This is not what they are good at. Compared to the new Henry and the new Shepchenko, they are always the players. , They are indeed a veritable brother.

However, the high center forward itself is not a position that requires so much skill at the foot. Players in this position can originally rely on their physical advantages to offset a large part of their technical disadvantages. These two players are tall, powerful, and not weak in impact. They also have the same skills in taking, passing and making the ball near the penalty area, which is enough.

In modern football, there is no requirement that the center must be Henry, Sheva, or Ronaldo. It is indeed great to save the team by oneself, but it is definitely a qualified center to be able to integrate with the team and attack the team for the team. These two players may not be close to the Ballon d'Or in their lives, but who in the game underestimated their threat?

Compared to Ronaldo, such players may be more terrifying-only those who face them can truly understand this fear. (To be continued)
