King of the start, I'm the new king of the Azzurri

Chapter 19 Pressure
After a victory, Empoli started a three-game winning streak again.

Such a situation made Victory feel the pressure. Although they are still in the second position, the point difference has been gradually narrowed.

In this regard, the team's manager Pedri approached Sarri again. He needed to know what medicine Sarri was selling in the pot.

"Maurizio, what are you going to do next? I need to know your thoughts!"

"Lee is the core on the front line, and everyone else has to serve him."

Sarri's words made Pedri surprised. In terms of long-term goals, Li Feng is not suitable for the entire core position, but since the head coach Sarri made this decision, it also means that he is more competitive with players in other positions. disappointment.

"Huh, have you made a decision?"

After a moment of silence, Pedri spoke slowly. He knew that it was difficult to make this decision, but this is the only choice at the moment.

It can also be said that the problems of the general environment have also squeezed the confidence of football investors, and their investment has decreased, which also forces them to make a "transition" by renting out youth players from other top leagues. That's up for debate.

"Well, I tried it in these few games. Let Li Juzhong play for them, but the effect is not very good. It's better to put all the burden on Li!"

Sarri nodded heavily. The current situation in Empoli is really not very good. After Tawana can't play, there are too few players who can step up, and Li Feng's performance gave him hope.

"Huh, since you have made a decision, as the manager of the team, I support you and hope that the final result can come true!"

"Hope it goes well!"

The two looked at each other, and there was only fatigue in their eyes. According to the original expectation, Empoli can be steadily promoted to Serie A this season.

No one would have thought that after just one winter transfer window, everything would change!

The cruelty of reality forced Sarri to start over.

On the other hand, Li Feng also played very aggrieved in these few games. He played for his teammates in various ways, and the position of the ball passed was quite good, but the final shot made Li Feng unable to complain.

In retrospect, their various shots were thrown too squarely, or they just kicked the goal diagonally.

This period of time also made Li Feng start to wonder if he didn't even have the ability to play in Serie B.

"Phew, these guys really mess with their mentality!"

After watching the replay again, Li Feng's mentality has recovered a lot. He whispered a few words about this, "The next game needs to be more independent!"

Yes, Li Feng intends to take the initiative in the next game. It's not that he doesn't trust his teammates, but the consequence of trusting his teammates is that the team fails to win the game. This is a big blow to the individual .

At the same time, as a high-intensity Internet surfer, Li Feng also noticed his recent evaluation.

[A big man who can only pass the ball, he is not as good as the injured Tavano, not even Mechedliser's selfishness, I don't know why Sarri put him in the starting lineup? 】

[There is no problem with Sarri's tactics. This young man has no problem with execution, but as a starter, he needs to believe in himself a little bit! 】

[It's a good thing to pay by teammates, but you don't need to pursue this too much. After all, every player's ability is different. 】

The 30th round of the league will also start on March 3.

For the fans of each team, such a schedule is relatively fair, and it will not give manipulation behind the scenes.

The current score situation of Serie B is also relatively clear. The advantages of Palermo and Empoli in the forefront are more obvious, but the teams behind them are not without opportunities.

And these 30 league rounds are the best time for Latina to chase points, and it is also the best time for Empoli to defend his second place!
This is a game held at Empoli's home court. In order to win this game, Sarri re-adjusted before the game. He changed the original 433 formation to 442, hoping to increase the number of midfielders. Enhance the control of the midfield.

The game started quickly, but it was a pity that Empoli, who was playing at home, failed to get the first chance to attack.

Reggina's striker Geraldi kicked off, and their advance was very solid.

Since the team is on the defensive side, Li Feng is in front of Reggina's central defenders Luccioni and Adeyo. This situation makes it inconvenient for their midfielders to return the ball directly to the central defenders.

At this time, Regina's midfielder Spafford, who was in possession of the ball, pushed the ball forward, and Pusia Leli on the other side was squeezing the advancement of Regina's midfielder.

Strictly speaking, Sarri turned the double striker into a tandem and a back, which still retains Li Feng's fulcrum role.

On the other hand, Pusia Leli retreated behind Li Feng to act as a second striker.

As for why not choose Macarone?

That's because Psiarelli is a better choice.

Sarri, who was standing on the sidelines, stared at the movement on the field. He wanted to know what kind of standard the four midfielders could perform in this game?

Sparford split the ball to the right, and the right midfielder Pambu continued to push forward after receiving the pass.

The advancing Panbu was blocked by Moro from the breakthrough route.

Such a blocking situation made Sarri's frown slightly relaxed.

After Pembu watched as he couldn't break the line, he returned the ball to Spafford.

Such a return pass is still followed up by Morrow.

Reggina's right flank did not seem to be able to achieve an effective breakthrough this time. Under the pressure of the Empoli players, Spaffor continued to pass back.

Reggina, who occupied the ball for a while, was in a passive situation. As the offensive side, they were "locked" in their own half by Empoli.

Regina couldn't get the ball out of the backcourt, which made Li Feng, who was on the robbing, excited. He spared no effort to squeeze the space between Luccioni and Adeyo, which forced their full-back Maicon · Moreira crosses the ball directly to the other side.

Li Feng had no way to threaten such a pass, but he still noticed Simone Verdi who was robbing on the other side.

Especially seeing the opponent's extremely fierce way of robbing, Li Feng quickly made a decision - lean over and go to support him.

The idea of ​​moving the ball widely from Reggina's side is no problem, but at the point of receiving the ball, the full-back Ipsa failed to withstand the pressing of Simeone Verdi.

Simeone Verdi intercepts the pass and his cross reaches Li Feng.

After receiving the pass, Li Feng faced central defender Adeyo.

The continuous cycling under his feet failed to deceive Adeyo, but Li Feng noticed Simone Verdi beside him while advancing.

After Li Feng glanced at Adeyo, he kicked the ball with his left foot, and the whole person also pierced into the penalty area.

Simeone Verdi, who received the pass, did not stop the ball and directly crossed the middle.

The opportunity was good, but the speed of the ball was still a little bit slower, which allowed Adeyo, who had completed his turn, to clear the ball with a sliding tackle and out of the baseline, Empoli's corner kick!
