Super Marshal

Sales Football Club is located in Jerez, Andalusia, Spain.

It takes four and a half hours to arrive from Madrid by high-speed train, so the China Town team took a direct flight to Jerez Airport, and then from the airport to Sapin Stadium.

Yes, it is a stadium, with a spacious track and field track and a semi-circular arc area, which makes the distance between the stands and the field very long.

In Spain, there are not many teams that use stadiums as their home games, so Gao Han felt familiar.

"Have we been here before?"

Sitting in the stands of the Saping Stadium, Gao Han felt very familiar, as if he had been here before, but he forgot when. He could only say that he had been to too many away games.

On the contrary, Cantarero, who has a better memory, nodded and said: "If I remember correctly, it should be in the first season when we brought Atletico Madrid back to La Liga, we played here in the knockout round of the Copa del Rey round of 16. Away, the result of that game seemed to be...two to zero."

Gao Han let out a cry and stared at Cantarero in surprise, as if he was getting to know his former assistant again.

It happened a few years ago, I still remember the score, not bad.

Just three days ago, as soon as the European winter break transfers started, Chinatown and Atletico Madrid announced the loan of Marcos Senna at the same time. The two teams have a close relationship, and player loans are frequent and normal. But this is the first time that a popular player like Marcos Senna has been loaned out.

Therefore, the whole of Spain was shocked, especially the teams in the Spanish Second Division.

No one would have thought that Marcos Senna, who represented Spain in the European Cup six months ago, would choose to be loaned to the Chinatown team, which will inevitably increase the strength of the Chinatown team.

After joining three days ago, Marcos Senna appeared on the roster for the away game against Sares three days later.

Gao Han, accompanied by Cantarero and Armando Marcos, appeared in the stands of Sales to supervise the battle on the spot.

After all, it was the Spanish Second Division. There were not many fans at the scene, and they were sparsely sitting in the stands. In addition, the weather was cold. Gao Han wore a hat and sunglasses, but no one recognized him, which saved a lot of trouble. .

Players from both teams quickly appeared on the court.

Gao Han has always believed that people should be trusted and those who are suspicious should not be used. He trusts Pochettino and does not interfere. Therefore, he is not familiar with the players of Sares and cannot tell who is who. On the contrary, he is the starter of the Chinatown team. He is quite familiar with his family treasures.

The goalkeeper is De Gea, the defense from left to right is Alba, De Vrij, Alderweireld and Carvajal, and the midfielder is Marcos Senna, Schneiderlin and Lamy. Reis is forward, and the front trident is a combination of Aubameyang, Falcao and Diego Costa.

Gao Han scanned the players of the two teams on the court with his sharp eyes. From the overall strength of the players, the Chinatown team had the advantage, but the players were generally younger, and the midfield was weak and lost power before, resulting in the advantages of the frontcourt and backcourt being unable to be used. come out.

Now, after Marcos Senna joined, the midfield strength has been greatly improved and there should be better performance.

Not only Gao Han thinks so, but Cantarero and Pochettino also think so.

But the start of the game was unexpected. Sares, who was playing at home, took the lead in launching an attack.

The leader of the Spanish Second Division looked confident and kept attacking the Chinatown team. This made the Chinatown team somewhat at a loss. In the 13th minute, they made a mistake and the opponent seized the opportunity. One goal was scored by the striker.

This goal made the fans in the stands shout very excitedly. There were not many people, but the sound was loud.

After taking the lead, the Chinatown team became more and more nervous, while the Sares team took the initiative and frequently created threats.

Pochettino kept reminding the players on the sidelines and calling on them to try to slow down the rhythm, but the players on the field seemed a little hot-headed and couldn't listen.

"I lost games like this several times." Cantarero shook his head and sighed.

To serve as the technical director, he specially watched the Chinatown team's game videos and analysis this season beforehand. One of the important points was that the players' mentality was not mature enough.

Sometimes this is fatal, because when you become impatient, you may not be able to exert half of your original strength.

"You are still young after all." Gao Han was mentally prepared for this.

That's how young teams are. If they go well, they'll fall apart. If they encounter problems, they'll probably fall apart.

When the morale of the Chinatown team was fluctuating, I saw Marcos Senna taking advantage of a dead ball on the court to shout loudly to all his teammates around him, shouting something and directing them. , almost like a head coach on the field, and the teammates around him also consciously obey his arrangements.

After the game restarted, Marcos Senna was the first to run over and catch the ball. After catching the ball, he did not pass it out immediately. Instead, he held the ball himself and stabilized the rhythm of the game.

Sarres' players wanted to press forward, but Marcos Senna immediately passed the ball to his teammates, and then ran into the gap to catch the ball. The defensive players continued to press, and he passed again, ran again, and received again...

The ball was always passed at the feet of the Chinatown team. After several attempts, Sares' players finally gave up.

After the rhythm was controlled, Marcos Senna began to organize the attack, and the overall formation of the Chinatown team began to gradually press forward, which made Gao Han and Cantarero in the stands nod.

"A veteran is a veteran after all, and he is reliable at critical moments." Cantarero praised.

Gao Han also agreed very much.

Every time a goal is scored, it is often followed by another goal. The reason is not difficult to guess. The team that loses the goal will counterattack crazily, while the team that scores the goal is prone to relax, but it may also be the other way around. The team that scores the goal does not relax, and the team that scores the goal does not relax. It is to prepare carefully, take advantage of the counterattack of the team that lost the ball, and seize the opportunity to sneak attack and gain another victory.

Therefore, at this time, what the Chinatown team needs most is to stabilize their position.

"As long as we stabilize our position, with the strength of the Chinatown team, we can turn defeat into victory." Gao Han is confident in this.

On the court, Marcos Senna organized and planned an attack, but after the ball was passed to the frontcourt, Sares seized the opportunity to steal the ball within two or three kicks. However, as soon as the ball was stolen, the Chinatown team counterattacked. .

Both Schneiderlin and Ramirez entered the opponent's 30-meter area, Marcos Senna stayed on the outside, and Alderweireld and De Vrij were stationed in the middle line, forming a tight defensive level. .

Under the sweep of Schneiderlin and Ramirez, Sares made a passing error. After Schneiderlin intercepted the ball, he passed it to Falcao in the frontcourt, but the Colombian forward retreated to get the ball and felt that Without a chance, he passed the ball directly back to the defense.

"Well done, take your time, don't be in a hurry, there's still time." Pochettino cheered loudly from the sidelines.

"Remember, keep the ball, be patient and play to our strengths."

The players on the court heard Pochettino's call, and under the command of Marcos Senna, they gradually stabilized their position, controlled the rhythm, played more patiently, and were no longer as impatient as before.

Facing such a Chinatown team, Sares really didn't have any good ideas for a while. On the contrary, the Chinatown team, after patiently searching for twenty minutes, finally found an opportunity.

Diego Costa took the ball in the frontcourt and passed it back to Ramirez. The Brazilian midfielder moved to the wing. Carvajal quickly inserted in the back row. After receiving the ball, he strode directly to the baseline and passed the ball. Passed into the restricted area.

Falcao in the penalty area quickly intervened, used his body to grab the most advantageous position, swung his head and touched a far corner. The ball passed the hands of goalkeeper Sares and hit the goal.

"yeah!!!!!!"

In the stands, when Gao Han saw Falcao scoring, he jumped up from his seat and shouted excitedly.

Cantarero and Armando Marcos beside him were also very excited.

In the stadium, Pochettino, who was in the visiting team's coaching bench, made a fist with his right hand, swung it in the air, and shouted loudly.

This goal was played very smartly, using the back row to seize the most powerful position, swinging the head to hit the far corner, and the strength and angle were well controlled.

"This kid has a very keen sense of scoring goals and will be a terrifying scorer." Cantarero was full of praise.

Gao Han chuckled, of course he knew Falcao's strength, otherwise, he would not have introduced him from River Plate to the Chinatown team.

Not only him, but also Diego Costa, and Aubameyang, and everyone in the team.

This is his team, and everyone on this team was carefully selected by him. How can they not be outstanding?

"I'm telling you, we're going to win this game." Gao Han pointed to the court below and shouted confidently.

"With this momentum, Sareth can't stop us!"

Cantarero also felt the same. After the equalizer, the situation on the field had suddenly reversed.

Now the Chinatown team has the upper hand and is suppressing Sares mentally. On the contrary, it is the home team, who must be a little anxious.

Sure enough, after the game restarted, Sares was a little impatient and began to want to attack, but it was difficult to get through the midfield.

In Pochettino's tactics, the two tiger generals Schneiderlin and Ramirez are very good at running and covering. They sit in the midfield, coupled with the active defense of the front trident, Marcos Senna behind him Sitting on the defensive position, it is difficult for Sares' offense to be a threat, especially after being anxious.

The two sides were tied one-on-one in the first half, but changed sides and fought again in the second half. As soon as the game started, the Chinatown team suddenly launched a wave of offense.

The left back Alba made a surprise attack from the left. After receiving a pass from Aubameyang, he went down to the baseline and passed the ball low. The goalkeeper Sares made a decisive attack and flew to save, but the ball was spinning strongly and he missed the save. .

At the critical moment, Falcao got ahead of everyone, followed up quickly, and sent the ball into the bottom of the net with his left foot.

This goal helped the Chinatown team reverse Sares.

It was this goal that made Sares even more anxious.

If there is a rush, there will be many mistakes. If there are too many mistakes, the Chinatown team's quick counterattack will be effective.

Marcos Senna counterattacked by intercepting the ball in the middle and passed it to Diego Costa. After the latter took the ball with his back, he directly passed the ball behind him. Falcao stepped in to receive the ball. After entering the penalty area, he used his feet skillfully With his skill, he dunked past the last defensive player and calmly shot.

The ball passed the goalkeeper and hit the net again, three to one!

Falcao scored a hat trick!

The excited Colombian forward quickly rushed out of the field, accepting congratulations from his teammates all the way.

On the sidelines, Pochettino was also very excited, hugging his assistants hard and shouting loudly.

This is definitely the most frustrating game played by the Chinatown team this season.

Three to one, reversing the league leader away from home. Is there anything more exciting than this?

"This game was won beautifully, but it's not just these three points that are important." Cantarero gradually began to enter a new role, thinking about issues as a technical director.

After Gao Han glanced at him in surprise, he felt funny himself. Didn't he just hope that Cantarero would get into the role earlier? Why do you seem a little uncomfortable with it?

But Cantarero is right, the most important thing is not these three points, but winning back a breath of life and hope.
