Chapter 56 League Cup Champion!

The most intuitive effect brought by clear tactics is high efficiency. The tactics arranged by Richard formed chains in the half field belonging to Burleigh. The zone defense mode and these chains connected together made Middlesbrough's The offense is even more uncomfortable, like a giant being tied up.

McLaren looked at Li Cha suspiciously. Through the first half of the game, Li Cha was a standard rich second generation in McLaren's eyes. This rich second generation just relied on his surname to play cm in reality. only games.But at the beginning of the second half, he found something was wrong. Burleigh directly cut his half into nine pieces, each piece was guarded, and each piece became a fortress, requiring his own players to do their best to attack.

Mendieta can no longer come in and out freely, and Juninho can't control the ball for more than ten seconds at all. Even if the ball is passed back, someone must come forward and press rough within five seconds.

On the contrary, they played very civilized in the hinterland of Burleigh. Although the small moves continued, the black feet and hidden elbows began to gradually decrease. Middlesbrough had fewer and fewer chances to get set kicks, and even the number of corner kicks gradually decreased. reduce.

What happened to this team?

How come the two halves played completely differently?

McLaren finally saw a clear idea in Burleigh's defense, clear lines, traceable but hard-to-break chains made him embarrassed.

Diarra stopped pressing indiscriminately, Redondo reduced his forward penetration and began to actively fill up the position. With the help of Diarra, the two sides became more stable. Aggravated sharply.

"Speed ​​up the attack speed, don't give the Burleigh guys time to press! Juninho, use your skills to hold back the people who come up to press you, as long as you hold one, Burleigh's zone defense will be shattered, and then, sink them!"

McLaren did not blame his team in the first half. In his opinion, it was just a matter of luck that he scored a goal instead of opening the scoring. In the second half, his team will definitely come back. C's rookie?

Li Cha immediately stood up when he heard the shout, and yelled likewise: "Stand still, don't give the opponent a chance easily, see if your companion needs help before stepping forward, someone must fill up the vacant position!!!"

The two managers fine-tuned their teams as quickly as they were in a ring. Middlesbrough's rhythm became faster and faster, and the football began to roll under their feet.Burleigh plays steadily, as long as it is not a full-fledged breakthrough or a purposeful forward pass, their defense in the hinterland is always solid. <Sweating is a very difficult thing.

As the minutes passed, Mendieta never singled out a winger as badly as in the first half, except for Mendieta's long shot 30 meters outside the penalty area.He began to frequently advance to the middle, hoping to tear Burleigh's chain defense through cooperation with Juninho, but unfortunately...

Redondo didn't give him the chance.

Mendieta leaned into the middle to let Swarth on the wing take a breath. Defending a world-class player is not a fun job. A highly concentrated defense will make his physical strength drop sharply. Later, he had to start passing frequently. Foul to block Mendieta.Just 15 minutes into the second half, Swarth had committed four fouls, including a yellow card for another serious foul.

Mendieta is close to the middle and Middlesbrough's two defensive midfielders frequently advance forward, which makes the task of Redondo and Diarra in charge of defense in the middle aggravated. Sometimes Vermaelen has to advance his position a little bit to ensure defense balance.

After 10 minutes of the second half, when Middlesbrough still hadn't opened up the situation, McLaren finally started to worry.

"Press up, take turns to advance, and crush Burleigh's defense in the middle!"

After McLaren said this, he called Juninho to something, muttered a few words in a low voice, and then the flames of war were rekindled.

After seeing the direction of the opponent's attack, Li Cha quickly started to make substitutions, and Jiadeli replaced Gaza.

The positions of Diarra and Gardeli are also in the center of the box, but they are leaning towards the sideline of the box, so that everyone can have their own space and range of activities, and it will be faster to support the side.

Redondo replaced Garza. As soon as the opponent enters the middle circle, Redondo will start to harass. If Gadli or Diarra are on the side, Redondo will immediately fill in. In short, he is very busy.

Although Richard has done what Burleigh can do to the extreme, the danger still appears.

Juninho took the ball and knocked back. When he ran forward, Redondo rushed towards Dorival who received the ball. Dorival did not stop the ball at all and passed the ball to Greening. Ning once again passed to Juninho who had just rushed into the hinterland. After the three of them made a triangular cooperation, Juninho actually occupied the middle position between Diarra and Jiadeli!

Before Diarra and Gadley could catch up, Juninho had already started to move forward. He was stuck in the center of Vermaelen, Merdesacker, Diarra and Gadli!

Juninho's ability to read the game is extremely powerful. He is not only executing McLaren's offensive instructions, but also analyzing the battle situation at all times.

At this moment, Juninho passed the ball in the center like a ghost, and the ball was picked over Vermaelen's head. Ricky seized the opportunity to rush past Merdesacker's defense, leaning on Vermaelen's back chest with his body Stop the ball off the ball!

Vermaelen didn't dare to step down. Ricky was already in the penalty area. Fouling in this position was equivalent to giving Middlesbrough a penalty kick.

Merdesack is coming forward, he and Ricky are only two steps away, just wait until Merdesack comes up...

bump!

Ricky didn't give Merdesack a chance to get close at all. From the moment he received the football, he only had a shot in his mind.

The ball arced in the air and flew towards the far corner of the goal. Although Schmeichel threw it out, he was beyond his reach...

"Juninho's forward drive was like a stroke of genius. His agility allowed this pass to directly shatter Burleigh's defense...Regan caught the ball...the goal!"

bump.

The football slammed into the goal post and bounced off the baseline. Ricky kicked the turf hard in frustration, and cursed non-stop.

……

At 10 minutes into the second half, there was another crisis in front of Burleigh's goal!

"Mendieta and Juninho's two-for-one made Diarra completely useless. This is the tacit understanding between the stars. Can they push the game to the starting point?" Martin's voice sounded again, when the goalkeeper Dieta sprinted into the box along the ribs, and when the ball was passed low on the edge of the box, all the Middlesbrough fans were praying that Ricky or Juninho who inserted it would catch up and kick the ball in...

It's a pity they weren't pious enough, as if God didn't hear their prayers. This pass slipped through the chaotic army, Ricky fell to the ground and shoveled, and Juninho, who was outflanking the point behind, also took a big step forward. She, but the football still disappeared in front of his eyes like a shooting star and rolled out of the bottom line.

……

Middlesbrough is getting more and more anxious, because now there are less than 10 minutes to the end of the game!

Li Cha is shameless again, for the sake of the championship, he doesn't care if his tactics are ugly!

Replaced Ashley with veteran Colin Woodthorpe, from four to five at the back; replaced Nasri with Steve Baigan, changed from three to four, except Muric In addition, Li Cha actually replaced all the attacking players on the field, and the number of people hoarding in his own half reached nine. Even Muric started to defend near the center circle.

Everyone knows that as long as you hold on, you can win, and if you hold on, you can win the championship!

Burleigh was now flooded with enthusiasm. They kept running, kept using their bodies to resist Middlesbrough's shot line, and surrounded the front of the penalty area like desperately, never relaxing for a moment.

Vermaelen had cramp, Diarra was slammed by Juninho, and his stomach was stuffy for a long time, and Tom limped and didn't know if he was stepped on his foot or kicked to his ankle, but he still persisted.

Their foreheads were full of sweat, and their bodies were covered with mud, but no one gave up.

beep!beep! !beep! ! !

After Mendieta's long shot flew into the air, the whistle sounded for the end of the game. At this moment, Li Cha was the first to rush into the field, shouting frantically: "We are the champions!!!!"

At this moment, the Burleigh players, who were almost out of strength on the court, seemed to have strength again. They hugged their teammates, the coach, and every hug of the team, and shouted loudly: "We are the champions! !!"

The fans in the stands belonging to Burleigh lit fireworks and began to celebrate. At this moment, Burleigh's team anthem was everywhere in the stadium.

At the same moment, reporters swarmed in and began to interview Burleigh players one by one...

I don't know who played the tune of "We Are the Champions", and all the Burleigh fans started singing loudly. In the end, there was only one voice in the whole Wembley, and that was the voice of the Burleigh people.

……

The awards ceremony that followed was even more dreamlike. Richard didn't even recognize the old man who handed the trophy to him, and started waving the trophy to celebrate with the team. At that moment, the entire Wembley Stadium cheered for Burleigh The fourth division team lit up the sky with fireworks.
