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

Chapter 23 The Bad First Half
Against Barry, if he really wanted to say that he could win, Sarri didn't have that confidence, after all, the opponent was really not weak.

But in order to ensure that he does not have to play in the play-offs, he must find a way to win this game.

At present, Barry is also holding a place in the play-offs, and they will go all out in order to miss one game.

In this game, Barry adopted a 523 formation. For Sarri, the burden of the center position is even heavier.

He was still a little worried about putting such a heavy burden on Li Feng.

After all, compared to those old fried dough sticks, Li Feng is really too young. He is afraid that he will be "bullied" by the old fried dough sticks, and then he will be deceived.

But how can young people grow up without being baptized by "old fritters"?
Regarding this starting candidate, Sarri already has plans, and he is willing to use this game to let Li Feng grow.

The current Li Feng is performing well, but he is still far from becoming a top striker, but he already has the potential of a top striker.

At the beginning of the game, Barry, who was playing at home, took the lead in attacking.

Sitting on five backs, they advanced very steadily in offense. Facing such a situation, Li Feng sensed some danger.

"Barry's formation at home is 523, they are lined up word by word,

Forwards: Garano, João Silva, Nadalvic
Midfielders: Chodone, Fossati
Defenders: Defendi, Calderoni, Cepitelli, Porrenta, Sabelli
Goalkeeper: Gurner;

This is Barry's common formation. Five defenders can help them make the defense tighter. At this point, it is not easy for Empoli to tear apart Barry's defense. "

"The best and most realistic point is that Empoli needs to make full use of Li's fulcrum role!"

Explaining again that Empoli Wright set his sights on Empoli's starting striker.

At present, Li Feng's performance in Empoli's starting center position is very good, which also makes fans begin to "forget" other center rotations.

"The ball is still controlled by Barry's feet, and their advancement is relatively stable."

"Here I will also talk about Empoli's starting lineup:
Forwards: Li Feng, Pusciarelli

Midfielders: Morrow, Castilla, Valdi Fiori, Simeone Verdi

Defenders: Laurini, Tonelli, Hisai, Rugani
Goalkeeper: Bass;
There is no change in the overall selection, which is also in line with Empoli's situation, but to be honest, the current overall performance of Empoli is not stable, and sometimes what they show does not ensure that they can win the game steadily . "

Although Empoli's games are broadcast a lot, their strength is not worth the TV station's effort here.

Defendi points the ball to Xiaodone.

Li Feng can only watch this kind of goal, he does not dare to retreat too deep at this time, at least at this stage, he needs to be on the front line to ensure that when the counterattack comes, Empoli has the ability to counterattack Chance.

Xiaodone's continuous feints failed to beat Castilla.

But he still noticed that Garano had inserted behind the Empoli midfielder.

With his sharp passing, Empoli's defense was torn apart in a split second.

Garano, who received the pass, wiped Rugani.

Rugani's speed, who is superior in height and weight, is naturally at a disadvantage.

"In the cross from outside the penalty area, Hisai got stuck in the position. If Barry wants to convert it into a goal, I'm afraid they need to work harder!"

"Hisaj cleared with a header and Valdi Fiori kicked the ball forward from outside the box."

This is Barry's first attack. Although it ended in failure, they have cooperated. As long as they catch such an opportunity, then this is not good news for Empoli.

It is still Barry's players who control the clearance ball.

Calderoni noticed that Empoli's frontcourt players hadn't approached yet. Without any hesitation, he broke the "tranquility" of Empoli's backcourt with a long pass.

Joao Silva's header was returned, followed by Chaudone's heavy artillery!
The sudden appearance of Xiaodone caught Empoli's defense by surprise.

Fortunately, Empoli's goalkeeper responded in a timely manner, otherwise he might really be cheated and his mother wouldn't even know him.

"Bass' save is still so timely, which is not a good thing for Empoli."

Wright couldn't help shaking his head, he still had expectations for Empoli.

"This is Barry's corner kick, I believe they will seize this opportunity!"

The quality of Barry's tactical corner kick this time is very good, and the teammates in the penalty area are already in the box.

Li Feng, who has already been involved in the penalty area for defense, noticed Cepitelli's movements. He did not back down at all, and he leaped high and headed out of the penalty area with a corner kick.

The attack was cleared, and Barry quickly returned the ball.

The ball is still on the opponent's side.

Sarri on the sidelines noticed this situation, and he frowned. He didn't expect that the opponent would choose to target Empoli's midfield like this.

Judging from the results, I am afraid this time it will be done for real!

Calderoni gave the ball to Chaudone, who retreated quickly, and the frontcourt space was quickly handed over to Barry's frontcourt players.

Facing Empoli's defense, Xiaodone lowered his shoulders and swayed. He wanted to use this method to tear apart Empoli's defense.

But he was still pegged.

It was crossed to the corner of Fossati, and they needed a quick decision at this time.

Continuous cycling did not deceive the center of gravity of the defensive players. For Fossati, he is not very used to this rhythm.

As he stuffed the ball to Xiaodone, there was a smooth road ahead of Xiaodone who plugged in.

"At the top of the arc again, Xiaodone fired a heavy shot at the goal before Chisay blocked it!"

"GOALLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 14th minute of the game, Barry's continuous attack helped them take the lead in the game. This is a good result!"

Triggered from Wright's point of view, Empoli's defense has a lot of problems. According to common sense, their home and away games will become a little tricky.

In the 32nd minute of the game, Barry's counterattack came.

This time Cepitelli went straight forward from the backcourt, which meant that Barry was going to hit the back directly. If he can't be restricted, then it is easy to cause accidents.

After receiving a pass from Cepitelli, it was João Silva's header ferry, this time he did not push so hard, and his strike partner directly kicked and shot.

"Hey!"

The ball was blocked outside the goal without accident.

The teammates who made up the shot still failed to help their teammates.

The game continues.
