Chapter 145 The Peak of Pure Technology

"Okay, don't laugh anymore, let me arrange the tactics for the second half."

After Basile came in, seeing the relaxed attitude of the players, he hurried over to wind them up.Players can be arrogant, but as a head coach he must keep his composure at all times.

"After the start of the second half, the opponent will definitely take the opportunity to attack for a while and want to get back the score. This is our good opportunity. The offense must be invested in manpower, and their iron barrel formation will be weakened. Phil, you move to the right in the second half. In the first half, because you kept attacking the left, the U.S. team put most of its strength on the left. If you use it well, you can tear the opponent's defense in an instant."

Although Basile is not well-known on the European continent, he has at least been a veteran of the Argentine national team for several times.He has the most experience in this kind of international competition, especially since he has basically spent his entire coaching life in South America, so he is as familiar with opponents in the Americas as his own son.

Although Bradley has not lost a game since taking over the US team, but looking at their opponents, you can see how watery this undefeated record is.In the second half, Basile asked a few old guys on the Argentine defense to pay attention, so as not to be easily hit and counterattacked.For the veteran, he still believes in it. Although Millito gave the opponent a penalty in the first half.But in that situation, the opponent basically faced the goalkeeper single-handedly, and fouling was the best choice.

"Okay, let's play, don't forget there are still four balls."

As the captain, Ayala got up first, and then did not forget to remind the offensive players in the frontcourt.

"Looks like it's going to be desperate."

Although it is easy to say, Gago knows that it is not easy to score four goals in the second half.No matter how weak the U.S. team is, it is a team that can enter the World Cup, unless it uses its right foot.

Gago just thought about it for a while before throwing out this idea. He is not a short-sighted person, and a mere America's Cup can't compare with his future great career.

At this time, Gago saw the tightly pursed Messi beside him, and came up with another solution in his mind.But he really didn't want to use this method.

"Let's take a look first."

Gago was still undecided in the end.

At the start of the second half, the US team kicked off, and as expected, they took advantage of this opportunity to attack Argentina's goal.This time they obviously went all out, and fell behind by one goal in the first half, making them think that the gap between the two sides was not that big.As long as the score is equalized again, the concentrated US team can still fight for a draw.

However, the facts tell them that the big devil is not so easy to defeat, and cannon fodder is always naive.Although their offense invested a lot of manpower, it did not threaten Argentina's goal.

Mascherano showed his top defensive midfielder level. He is the strongest barrier in the Argentine midfielder. He used all kinds of means to wrap and clamp, but he did not allow the US team's offense to hit the defense.Johnson, who made a penalty in the first half, was blocked by his difficult defense in the midfield. Gago, who came back to defend, took the opportunity to easily break the ball from his feet.

Looking up, the players of the US team obviously didn't expect to be intercepted so easily, and they haven't had time to retreat.

"Good opportunity."

This idea flashed in Gago's mind, and he sent a long pass directly in the midfield.The ball flew high and crossed the entire defense line of the US team. Messi and Crespo Qiqi turned around and succeeded in turning offside.

The US team's national goal Keller's face turned dark at this time, and he attacked directly to take the ball off before Messi and Crespo.If one of them stops the ball, it only takes one pass to face an empty goal.Unless he can have a clone technique to become two people.

With this long pass, Gago used a stunt he learned from Beckham.The outer instep of the left foot twitched, and the ball was erratic in the air under the influence of the wind. Neither Messi nor Crespo could see where it landed.But they have the advantage of numbers, one to the left and one to the right, if the ball falls in the middle, the two of them can only kneel.

However, they really had to recognize this ball. It landed on the left side of the center. Keller was overjoyed. Seeing the situation, he could make it one step faster.

"Come on, the left foot is really not allowed."

Seeing where the ball landed, Gago shrugged helplessly. He originally wanted to go to the right.

Messi tried his best to rush over, but the goalkeeper had no choice but to use his hands. Keller stretched out his long arms and picked the ball off and hugged it to his chest.

"Argentina had a good chance, but Gago's long pass was a little bit wide, which was resolved by Keller's timely attack."

Although Gago didn't pass the ball well, the audience still applauded.

Basile on the sidelines didn't hide his regret. He could think of the American team attacking at the beginning, but he didn't expect Gago to catch the opponent's flaw so quickly.This time, the frightened American team would definitely not dare to shrink their heads again.

Sure enough, as he expected, the US team, which was almost pierced by the counterattack planned by Gago, started a defensive counterattack again.It would be best if this game could be tied, but they were even more unwilling to be slaughtered.

But can things really go as they wish? Seeing that the US team was shrinking again, Argentina began to bombard them indiscriminately according to the rhythm of the first half.

The state of the US team in the first half seemed to continue, and they defended well.Riquelme made a precise through ball, and Crespo got in and missed the goal.

Seeing that 10 minutes passed in the second half, and Argentina still failed to score, Basile on the sidelines made adjustments for substitutions.

Exit Cambiasso, enter Aimar.

The current situation is that offensive players are needed. Cambiasso's main role is to balance offense and defense, and adjust the ball in the backcourt.But purely in terms of technical cooperation, Aimar is still better.After all, the clown's style of play is elegant, his passing is precise, and he is also a technical player, so it is more attractive to cooperate with him.

Aimar has always played as a substitute for Riquelme in the national team, but he has a gentle personality and has never complained about it.And his relationship with Riquelme is also very good, which makes him not easy to grab the ball.

Seeing Aimar's appearance, the idea in Gago's mind became clearer.After watching the game, it was only over half an hour, but there were still only two goals, although the victory was basically guaranteed.But the goal of scoring six goals has already been released. If this cannot be achieved, I am afraid there will be some talkative media after the game.

"Damn it, it's cheap for you. Just treat it as my reward for shining shoes!"

Gago looked at the figure of Messi in the frontcourt, muttered a little helplessly, then he came to Riquelme's side, waved Aimar to come over at the same time, and said his tactics.

"You're sure this will work."

After listening to Gago's words, Riquelme's face was a bit ugly. He looked at Messi and asked unwillingly.

"This kid still has some strength, but his greatest power can only be manifested when the Barcelona midfielder feeds the ball. Now our three technical players should be able to simulate a bit of power. Roman, you also played in Barcelona. After a while, you should know their running positions. As an opponent, I also know very well about Barcelona's style of play. Pablo, you are responsible for receiving our passes."

Gago patiently explained that he knew that Riquelme was very unhappy with Barcelona.But I have to admit that their style of play is the highest state of purely technical teams. The reason why Messi is "sick" in the national team is also because of his lack of experience.I don't know that in the national team, I should allow myself to cooperate with the midfielder instead of waiting for the unconditional pass from the midfielder in the frontcourt.

"Only this one time."

Riquelme thought about it, and decided to put the country's righteousness first, but the expression on his face was as unwilling as it was.In fact, he still hopes in his heart to be successful in Barcelona, ​​but as much as love, so much hate.Getting kicked out of Barcelona was the greatest shame of his life.

"Of course, I don't like Barcelona. If I didn't want to be ridiculed after the game today, I wouldn't make such a move."

Gago's face was also very unhappy. As a member of Real Madrid, he had a natural dislike for Barcelona, ​​but now he actually had to use their midfield cooperation. It was conceivable how uncomfortable he felt.

"Besides, let Messi play well in the national team. I think it will be troublesome to be the core in the future."

This sentence was thought by Gago in his heart, but he didn't say it.

"NND, I must make the American team look good."

Riquelme looked at the U.S. team surrounded by iron barrels and cursed.

And Aimar can only listen to orders, in fact, Gago did not expect that the one-kick pass from the midfielder he proposed could not be done by Barcelona now.

Although Barcelona is now at its peak, it relies more on Ronaldinho's personal invincibility to break through and organize shots.It can be said that he alone has half the fighting power of Barcelona.Now Harvey and Iniestaco are only supporting roles. Although they have shown their talents, they are more of a support in the midfield.

The future "Dream Team Three" is the real pinnacle of Barcelona, ​​completely in line with La Masia's style, and the same style of midfielder will play the technology to the top of this era.It really achieved "killing a strong man with an embroidery needle".

"If you look like this, if you still don't understand, I will kill you."

Gago looked at the dazed Messi in front and thought viciously.

After the re-kick-off, the fans at the scene may not know that they will see a peak tactic that has not yet appeared in this world, the limit that a purely technical player can achieve.

"What is Phil talking about, how do I feel that something interesting will happen."

Caniggia on the coach's bench asked Redondo beside him, his eyebrows raised slightly, looking very puzzled.

"Oh, then I really have to take a good look at it, you basically don't miss it."

After hearing this, Redondo focused his attention on the field.

Ps: Thanks to "Apolloe" and "Victory-Zilong" for their rewards, Chapter 2 may be very late, or it may be added tomorrow, so don't wait.
