"We still play 4132 in this game."

Before announcing the announcement of the roster, Conte directly informed all the players of his tactical arrangements: "We mainly play defensive counterattacks in this game."

After just one week of double competitions, although the players seemed to be in good condition, Conte still did not arrange radical tactics. Obviously, he still had to consider the endurance of the players.

"Feng and Alberto serve as double strikers, Racha is the front midfielder, Raymond is the back midfielder, Paul is the left forward, and Wolf is the right forward."

Continuously reporting the players' names, Conte still carried out a small rotation in this game, and main players such as Aubameyang and Ramirez did not enter the starting lineup.

"Four defenders are Vitale, Scapelli, Astori and Vestery from left to right."

Since the importance of the game is not as important as the Champions League before, Conte was not too tight when registering, and he paused until he talked about the goalkeeper position: "The starting goalkeeper is Phuketoni, and Tanho is temporarily substitute."

“…”

After a brief silence, both parties bowed their heads.

"Come on." Just as Conte opened his mouth to break the scene, Tanio sat next to Phuketi, patted Phuketi's shoulder and opened his mouth.

"Uh-huh!"

In an instant, the atmosphere in the locker room returned to harmony.

"Okay, now everyone is disbanded, gather in the parking lot tomorrow morning, and then we set out for Genoa."

"I understand coach!"

The final meeting ended, and all the players who entered the roster quickly got up and left the conference room. After a night of rest at home tonight, they will continue to enter the league rhythm tomorrow.

...

At nine o'clock the next morning, the packed players gathered in the club parking lot and got on the team's bus. The road was bumpy and the city of Genoa, which had two Serie A teams, appeared in front of her.

The buildings of the harbor city look very grand. If it weren't for the Sampdoria fans who kept boosing from both sides of the road, the Piacenza players wouldn't mind the bus going slower.

"Shit, it's really noisy."

Frowning and looking at the sailor fans who were constantly demonstrating to the bus outside the car window, Naingran only felt his temple thrust straight.

"Haha, Racha, look at the sailors' results and you can see why their fans are so crazy."

Cassia, who was sitting in front of him, smiled and turned around, then handed his cell phone in front of Naingran.

In fact, if Piacenza attracted everyone's attention after the start of the league last season, then this role this season is Sampdoria.

Before losing to Juventus in the last round, the team wearing a sea-colored jersey had already continued its impressive record of nine rounds of unbeaten after the start of the league.

And despite losing one game, Sampdoria still maintained the third place in the league on the court, which is much better than Piacenza, who has been hovering directly in fifth and sixth places.

In addition, the Mariners' forward group "bad boys" Casano and Pazini, who have gradually grown up, are in their prime, especially Casano, who seems to have completely changed their bad habits, has now become one of the most popular forward players in Serie A.

Against this background, when Mariners fans who have not seen their team lose a game at home have ushered in Piacenza, who defeated Sampdoria with a humiliating double score last season, their urgent revenge can be imagined.

"Okay, get off the bus quickly, there is not much time left for us to prepare."

The annoying noise did not stop until the bus entered the parking lot. Conte was the first to get off the car after arriving on the court, and then turned directly to urge his team members.

In the away game, everyone understood the necessity of fighting every second, and the players did not vaguely and followed the staff to the visiting team's locker room after getting off the car.

They had just used lunch on the bus and had just digested it almost the same, so they had already appeared on the Ferraris Stadium when the game was two hours away.

At this moment, even the fans of the home team Sampdoria have not entered the court, and the people of Piacenza are happy to warm up in the quiet atmosphere.

Forty-five minutes later, the team's warm-up was over, and the players who had sweated a little quickly returned to the locker room under the leadership of Conte.

"Remember our tactics in this game, don't directly confront our opponents, save your energy."

Standing in front of the tactical board again, Conte continued to emphasize: "If you only need one offense to solve the game, then do one offense. As long as you don't lose the ball, we don't have to worry."

After a tactical attempt, Conte's defensive thinking has become very clear. He, who once did not like to defend blindly, has finally realized what it means to be really fragrant.

Is there any tactic that can save players' physical strength more than defensive counterattacks? The young Conte finally understood why the older generation of coaches liked winning with one goal so much.

As for using offense to please fans, such an ordinary game where less than a thousand fans go with the team is not worth his players working hard like playing the Champions League.

"Do you understand?"

"clear!"

Obeying orders is the player's duty. After the hardships of the game, the players in Piacenza have long been familiar with the tactical style of defensive counterattacks, and they can execute them after the coach arranges them.

"Hello CCTV, CCTV, audience, welcome to watch the 11th round of Serie A Sampdoria vs. Piacenza. I am commentator Liu Jianhong."

As time changed, it was officially before the game started. CCTV5's signal had been given to Liu Jianhong's commentary room, and the two teams on the court had already walked out under the leadership of the captain.

"The captains of the two teams have come to the referee, oh~, A Feng won the rock-scissors, and he chose the kick-off for Piacenza."

On the court, after the end of the rock-scissors, both teams moved very quickly. The Piacenza, wearing a white away jersey, quickly stood in the halftime under the leadership of Liu Feng, and the sailors in front of them were the same.

"Shh!!!"

"The good game began. A Feng took the ball, and Girardino passed the ball to Naingalan, and Naingalan continued to pass it back."

The tactical arrangement of defensive counterattack naturally has the opening of defensive counterattack. Piacenza has implemented this tactical idea to the end from the first minute of the opening.
Chapter completed!
