Chapter 211 Heading! Still a header!
Under the leadership of captain Liu Feng, the players came out one after another and stood side by side with their opponents in the player channel.
"Hello." Waiting for the referee to take them into the court, Liu Feng suddenly felt a hot gaze falling on him. He turned his head and saw a young player standing behind the captain of Sampdoria. He smiled politely at the other party.
"Hello."
That player was Pazini, who gradually became the main striker of the Mariners after the start of the second half of the game. He was not the first in literature but the second in martial arts. Although he knew that there was a huge gap between him and the Chinese player in front of him, he still couldn't help but want to compare with the opponent in recent games.
However, when his hostile and provocative eyes were exchanged for the other party's gentle smile, Pazini suddenly felt that he was a little narrow-minded, so his answer seemed a little restrained.
"Hello, you."
"Okay, come in!"
Without waiting for the two to communicate, the referee on duty who stood in the front row walked out of the player channel, and the players of the two teams also walked out as soon as possible.
"Hello CCTV, CCTV, audience friends, welcome to watch the 31st round of the 2008-2009 Serie A League, Piacenza's home game against Sampdoria. I am commentator Liu Jianhong."
During the commentary, when the two teams quickly completed the rock-scissors-sports and stood on the court after entering the court, Liu Jianhong's voice sounded again. After his iconic opening remarks, the game on the court also announced the start with the referee's whistle.
"Okay, Piacenza, who chose the kick-off, took the lead in the kick-off. They will attack from the left side of the court to the right side of the court."
In this game, when Conte took out the 442 formation, Piacenza's playing style was established, that is, stability. Faced with mid-stream teams like Mariners, they no longer need to adopt risky offensive tactics. On the contrary, how to maintain a stable advantage is what Piacenza needs to learn now.
After the opening, Liu Feng, who received the push from Cassia, immediately passed the ball to the back of his midfield. After getting the ball, Marcisio arranged the players of his team in an orderly manner according to the tactics arranged by the head coach.
In addition to Liu Feng and Cassia, Piacenza entered the Mariners' midfielder's midfielder through the half, even Naingran, who is the front midfielder, was just cruising near the center line.
"Oh~, Piacenza chose the ball-handling tactic at the beginning of the game. Obviously, they did not intend to take a start-up attack in this game." Liu Jianhong saw his intention after Piacenza began to fall in the midfield: "The Sampdoria team, who was ready to go at the beginning, felt a little uncomfortable."
While Piacenza's dark horse has been dark for almost the whole season, no team in Serie A dares to underestimate this team. Their classic opening attack tactics have long been carefully studied by countless head coaches. For example, in this game, the Mariners' coach obviously made arrangements to curb this tactic.
Unfortunately, from the beginning, he misjudged the arrangement Conte would adopt.
Sampdoria, who did not make too many other preparations, dared to slowly push out after Piacenza's pass control had already controlled the rhythm of the game, which undoubtedly made them lose the opportunity to seize the initiative.
Twenty minutes before the game, the ball possession rate of the two teams was basically stable at 55%-45%. Sampdoria's ball rights mostly came from Piacenza's steals when trying to attack. They were often able to block Piacenza's attack well when they were heavily deployed in their own half.
"The offensive power of A Feng and Cassia is still a bit too weak. Once the Mariners' players defend, they will surround them with two or three people."
After the slow pace of twenty minutes passed, Liu Jianhong gradually saw the problems of the two teams: "Sampdoria seems to be a little too cautious, and the two teams tend to test each other during this period."
Yes, the first twenty minutes of the game are summarized in just one word, but these two words are destined to exist only in the first twenty minutes of the game.
In the 21st minute of the game, Piacenza's rhythm suddenly changed, and the situation on the field instantly became tense from a little relaxed.
All of this starts with Piacenza's pass from the midfield to the defender's pass.
At that time, the Mariners snatched the ball from Cassia through the siege of their own half-court players. Then Sampdoria's midfielder Angelo Baronbo dribbled the ball across the center line and began to try to organize the team's attack.
After Baronbo pushed the ball for a while, Naingran, who was chasing back, had already come to him. He had to send the ball out with one kick and stuff it to Pazini who was retreating to meet him.
When Pazini was holding the ball, he turned his back to the defensive player behind him, which made it difficult for Marcisio, who came up to try to steal. Then the young forward, who was called the future of Italian football by the media, turned directly with his outstanding flexibility and coordination, and wiped it from Marcisio.
"Pazini, beautifully turned around with the ball! He left Marchisio behind."
At Leonardo Stadium, Sampdoria's expedition fans began to shout loudly. The small number of them desperately shook the flags in their hands to cheer for their players.
However, the cry did not last long. When a red figure quickly approached Pazini's left backside at a speed visible to the naked eye, the voices of the Mariners fans became weaker, and the voices of the Piacenza fans became louder.
"Aubameyang chased back quickly, his speed was too fast!" Liu Jianhong looked at Aubameyang, who had already reached half of the back of Pazini in the picture. The next moment, Aubameyang directly chose to tackle the ball and shoveled the ball under Pazini from the back to his defender.
"It's very clean. Scapelli directly cleared the ball with a big foot. No, it's not a clearance. This is a very accurate long pass!"
There were so many things that happened next, so many that Liu Jianhong said nothing at all. Scapelli's long pass came to the foot of Padalino on the left of Piacenza in the next second. Then Padalino took the kick again in the face of the opponent's blockade, and the ball flew straight into the Sampdoria penalty area.
At this moment, Liu Feng and Cassia had already rushed towards the Mariners' penalty area when Scapelli kicked out. At this moment, they had appeared on the edge of the penalty area, and Naingran had also reached the top of the penalty area.
"Naingran directly headed the ball and pushed the ball into the penalty area!" Liu Jianhong's voice kept stopping: "The ball flew towards A Feng, A Feng! He didn't attack the goal with a bad position, but he still headed the ball. The ball was sent to Cassia! Cassia headed the ball!"
"Bang!"
With a dull sound, the man fell and the ball entered, and the three Piacenza knocked on the Mariners' door with successive headers.
Chapter completed!
