Chapter 461 The crux of the solution
"This is the first goal of this game. Palermo players broke through Piacenza's defense through smooth cooperation, and the whole process was very smooth."
As a commentator, Liu Jianhong naturally would not only say things that are beneficial to Piacenza. He gave a very pertinent evaluation after the birth of this goal.
"Palermo's Pastore and Bertolo, introduced in the summer window, played a very important role in this goal, and they have made great contributions to the team's stable record this season."
On the court, Palermo's celebration was also very relaxed. At the opponent's home court, the group of players enjoyed the pure joy of scoring goals and leading.
"Pay attention to your position!"
On the contrary, most of the players of Piacenza were lowered their heads and listening to Conte's roar on the sidelines. It was obvious that the young coach lost the ball to the team without any fighting back: "Don't let them break through easily, are you dozing off?!!"
This completely opposite atmosphere continued until the game started again, and Conte's roar still played a certain role. When the ball was once again given to his teammates behind him by Liu Feng, who was standing in the middle circle, the Piacenza team members obviously no longer had the phenomenon of slipping.
Although they did not create any good opportunities in the following time in the first half, no matter how Pastorre and others rushed, they never got the same good opportunities as before.
In this way, the first half came to an end as the referee blew the whistle to the end of the midfield.
Under Conte's leadership, the Piacenza players quickly returned to the locker room. The situation of falling behind with one goal could not be stalemate. Since the team fell into a passive position, Conte has been thinking about solutions, and at this moment he has had some initial ideas.
"We are playing against the defensive counterattack!" The tactical board beside the hand made a sound. Conte seriously scanned the players off the field after closing the locker room door: "What are you playing? Do I need to transfer the forwards back to set up the bus!"
The players naturally did not dare to take Conte's words. They were one goal behind and did not show any possibility of getting back to their level, as Conte said, they did spend all their energy on defense in the first half.
"A Feng only had one shot, and Cassia only touched the ball twice and did not give the ball rights to them. Do you want them to grab it by themselves?"
Focusing on the midfielder, Conte took the lead in seeing Giladino: "Alberto, if you can't handle the ball behind you well, I will consider it and change you directly!"
This was really serious. Even Giladino, who had a rich experience, was not very proud at this moment. He was in a normal state and was indeed a bit pale in comparison with the opponent's young midfielder in the first half.
"Ramirez, Antonio, your position will move forward in the second half, between Alberto and Ramondi."
I don't know how many times the team's three-defensive midfield formation has not been fully maintained. Conte has realized that at this moment the attributes of his players may really not be suitable for playing in this formation. At the same time, he does not want to give up on his emphasis on defense and chose a compromise method.
"Whether it's offense or defense, I hope to see you!"
"I understand the boss!"
The two who were named naturally agreed repeatedly. Ramirez and Nocerino were both players who were both offensive and defensive. Due to the awkward position in the first half, they played very uncomfortable. At this moment, they had no objection to hearing Conte's arrangements.
"We are already behind. Don't play so rigidly at the beginning of the second half. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Press them out. I want you to get the score back as soon as possible."
The adjustment of the formation is only one aspect. What makes Conte even more troublesome is the players' condition. After the first half of the game, he realized that the players' condition cannot be adjusted for a while, but spiritual motivation is still necessary.
"Listen to the fans, I don't think any of you want to lose the game like this."
"I don't want to coach!"
"Very good, then use my best!"
"roar!"
On the football field, verbal stimulation is always very effective for the young players. At least when Conte sat back to his position, the atmosphere in the room was more than a little higher than at the end of the half.
Soon, the staff knocked on the door of Piacenza's locker room on time. Under Liu Feng's leadership, Piacenza returned to the stadium again.
"Good spectators, welcome to the game scene, and the second half will begin soon."
Without the cumbersome group photos and rock-scissors before the start of the game, shortly after Liu Jianhong's voice reappeared, the two teams that had exchanged halftime were already standing on the court.
"Shh!!!"
"The game started again, Palermo took the ball, and they maintained their tactics in the first half as always and pressed towards Piacenza in the half!"
First, there were Micoli and the left and right front guards on both sides, then the front midfielder Pastore, and then the two back midfielders behind him. Palermo's formation was very wide, but there were no obvious loopholes, which left their opponents with no trace.
However, unlike the first half, Piacenza no longer insisted on guarding his own three-point land. Although he could not find a good opportunity for a while, Ramirez and Nocerino, who had already taken the lead, soon joined the game against the opponent's midfield and frontcourt.
For a time, as Piacenza became fierce, the situation of Palermo, who was caught off guard, began to slowly collapse. They no longer cruised in the hinterland of Piacenza midfield, but slowly moved the area they were fighting to the nearest of the central circle.
"Conte once again adjusted the formation of the diamond midfielder, and now it seems that this adjustment is quite effective."
The game passed minute by minute, and Liu Jianhong, who was commenting on this game, had to nod to Conte's method: "It is not the ability of every coach to quickly find the team's crux of the team."
On the court, as Piacenza slowly pushed the formation out, they finally began to have more offensive opportunities. Liu Feng, who frequently failed to touch the ball in the first half, began to keep getting the ball, and his condition began to warm up with a touch.
As for Cassia in front of him, he firmly found the position of his own lighthouse and created many threats with his outstanding heading skills in the team's several long passes in the midfield.
The Piacenza fans in the stands also cheered for the team's offensive recovery, but an unavoidable problem made them feel more and more worried while cheering.
