One hundred and eighteenth veteran hidden danger
After being led by the opponent, Twente coach McLaren suddenly became a little anxious. He looked at Donebom who was moving slowly on the court and felt that it was inappropriate no matter how he looked.
So in the first half, he took advantage of the opportunity to serve an out-of-bounds ball, and replaced Donebom with Yang Mo's friend Yusov and adjusted the formation to 442.
This time the formation still looks like the previous match against Feyenoord. The two forwards who were close to the penalty area were replaced by Nkufo to Arnotovic, while Yang Mo went to the left to move.
Speaking of which, Arnotovic has delicate skills and tall figure. He has always been jokingly called Ibrahimovic II by his teammates. It is also perfect for playing center forward, but he has always been used to playing on the wing.
After the formation was adjusted, not to mention whether the situation on the field had changed immediately, Yang Mo felt very comfortable when he played.
As a friend of his team, Arnotovic naturally does not have much tacit understanding between them, and it naturally makes Yang Mo feel very comfortable when they cooperate.
For example, Yang Mo, who has a short pass talent of 83, is OK to let him pass normally, but if you want him to make a scalpel-like instant pass, you basically don’t have to expect it.
So on the field, Yang Mo's assists were almost obtained by crossing, and the goals were mostly the result of a solo effort after receiving the ball.
I know the characteristics of Yang Mo very well. Arnotovic often runs out of position in advance when waiting for Yang Mo to pass the ball, making it easier for Yang Mo to pass the ball.
This is why Yang Mo feels more comfortable with Arnotovic than Donebom.
In the 43 minutes of the first half, McLaren's last-dial adjustment finally gained results.
After receiving the pass from his friend Yusov, Yang Mo made a wall-to-wave cooperation with Perez, who took over as captain Nkufo, near the middle, and distributed the ball to Arnotovic in front of the penalty area.
After attracting Helenfen's defensive player blocking, Arnotovic knocked the ball back to Perez. Perez directly chose to shoot the ball in the face of the pass and passed it to Yang Mo diagonally.
After a series of passes and cooperation, Yang Mo had already broken through the penalty area. With his superb foot skills, he rushed out of the surround with a fried croquette and used his left foot to make the football straight into the upper right corner of the goal.
Faced with this shot, Helenfen goalkeeper tried his best to save, but he still failed to meet the football in the end. Yang Mo tied the score at 1-1.
"Beautiful pass and catch cooperation! Twente relied on the strength of the team to tear open Helenfen's defense. After Donebom was replaced, Twente's offense was obviously smoother."
"When the first half was about to end, our young player Yang Mo helped the team equalize the score. In this season, it is rare to see Yang Mo score such a goal after passing and receiving the ball."
"But from this goal we can see that Yang Mo not only has improved his body and technology, but also has made significant progress in tactical execution and teammate cooperation."
If Yang Mo could hear the commentary of Lou Yichen from Shanghai Five-Star Sports Channel, 80% would say that he would not make any progress? After playing for almost a season, his talent for judgment was about to break through to 85 under the training of the game.
After scoring a goal, Twente's cooperation became more tacit, and for a moment, Helenfen's goal became dangerous.
However, because there was not much time left in the first half, although Yang Mo and his teammates found a sense of cooperation, they failed to overtake the score.
After entering the halftime break, in the locker room, McLaren encouraged Yang Mo and his teammates to continue to maintain their previous state and strive to overtake the score as soon as possible.
After the start of the second half, although Helenfin made great efforts to adjust on the field and strengthened his defense, he still failed to have any impact when facing Yang Mo who had already played.
In the 61st minute of the second half, after Perez passed Yang Mo, Yang Mo dribbled the ball with his delicate foot skills, facing a group of defensive players and buckles. With a series of small steps, he suddenly jumped into the penalty area and shot.
Faced with Yang Mo's sudden attack, Helenfen's goalkeeper failed to save the shot and watched the football fly into the goal again.
1-2, Yang Mo helped Twente overtake the score.
"Goals are scored...!!! Yang Mo scored twice!! He relied on his personal ability to tear Helenfen's defense! Help Twente reverse the game!"
"Yang Mo's goal is not too gorgeous, but it reminds me of Messi, who shined in Barcelona this season. I hope one day we can see Yang Mo and Messi fighting on the court."
Accompanied by Lou Yichen's commentary, Yang Mo rushed to the sidelines excitedly and hugged McLaren as a celebration. He was actually very grateful to the head coach.
After Nkufo was injured, when Donebom and Arnotovic cooperated better than him in the first half, McLaren still chose to trust him and chose him as the core of the team. How could he not be grateful?
After the celebration, Twente intends to focus on defense under McLaren's command, but leaves Arnotovic and Yang Mo to remain threatening in the frontcourt.
Strangely, Helenfinns faces a behind-the-score, and all the players seem unpositive to equalize the score, and they are a little slow in both offense and defense.
In this way, although Twente was unable to continue to expand his advantage, Helenfin could not score a goal when he knew the end of the game.
In the end, the score of the game was frozen 1-2, and Twente won a valuable away victory.
After the game, when Yang Mo listened to head coach McLaren's explanation, he finally understood why Helenfin didn't seem so unpositive when lagging behind.
It turns out that among the Dutch Eredivisie teams, they are not the only ones fighting on both sides. Helenfin just defeated Warrendam in the Dutch Cup semi-final two days ago.
At this time, Helenfin was a time when people were in a mess. The bench thickness was even worse than Twente. After continuous combat, the players were exhausted.
And the most important point is that even though he knows that there is no hope of winning the league championship and the quota of the UEFA qualifiers is firmly obtained, Helenfen's attention is no longer in the league.
They only have one goal, that is, the Dutch Cup championship in the future, so they are obviously planning to put all their hopes on the Dutch Cup and don't want to waste their energy in the league.
After all, not every team has the ability to fight at the upper limit, and can also ensure that every line has hope of winning the championship.
In fact, Twente's current situation has reached its limit. If it weren't for the championship and the bonus promised by Chairman Yop Montesman, many of Twente's players would have collapsed first.
The reason for Nkufo's injury is that he was fouled is only part of it, mostly because of fatigue and high age. There are not many veterans like Nkufo in Twente's team.
The main central defender Wiesghof is 30 years old and the core of the midfield. The current captain Perez is 35 years old, and the main goalkeeper Boschker is 39 years old.
Facing the devil schedule that has already started, these experienced veterans will also face serious physical tests even though they can help the team move forward.
Once there is a slight accident, what Twente will face is likely to collapse together.
