Chapter 362 The Veteran's Counterattack
Yue Feng, who got rid of Lovalia, didn't chatter with his teammates in the midfield anymore. He took the ball and ran all the way along the sidewalk, and went straight to the opponent's defense line.
Fighting for possession of the ball with a group of sneaky veterans, isn't that a trade-off.
Yue Feng didn't quite approve of Ranocchia's tactical arrangement. Although it was right to consume the opponent's physical energy, it was not such a style of play.
Those who make good use of soldiers do not use the short to attack the long, but use the long to attack the short!
Since my advantage is youth, I must bring out the characteristics of young people who are strong and fast.
Although Yue Feng only has a speed of about A-level, it is not troublesome to abuse this group of veterans.
Seeing Yue Feng rushing towards with the ball, Chievo's right back rushed over to block it, but after being shaken away by Yue Feng's shoulder-sinking fake move, he could no longer catch up with Yue Feng's striding stride.
Yue Feng rushed to the opponent's ribs, looked up and saw Stefano who was unguarded in the back, and then passed the ball to the opponent with a long pass.
After Stefano just jumped up slightly, he tilted his head again, and headed the ball into Chievo's gate effortlessly.
1-0!Empoli, who played away, took the lead.
"It's so comfortable, Yue." Stefano ran over and extended his palms to Yue Feng. This was the most comfortable assist he had received recently.
He even suspected that he could score the ball just now without using any wooden stakes in the opponent's penalty area.
Relying on Yuefeng's quick counterattack from the left, Chievo's aging defense appeared a loophole.Only then did Ranocchia realize that his tactics might be wrong, so he no longer asked the players to play pass control in the midfield.
Kicking off again, Chievo, who was behind in the score, did not play conservatively. Instead, he strengthened his frontcourt attack and repeatedly created danger in front of Empoli's penalty area.
Fortunately, captain Luca led the other two central defenders to defend fairly tightly, always preventing the opponent from completing shots in the penalty area.
Lovalia, who had seen Yue Feng's strength before, did not dare to act rashly at this time, and immediately tightened the defense line on the side to prevent being suddenly attacked by Yue Feng again.
The two teams were at a stalemate for a while.
But Chievo's veterans quickly found a way to attack, and they began to shoot long shots outside the Empoli penalty area.
Chievo's midfielder is not only the captain Segre, but also the midfielder Obi and Dinoya also have a good long-range shot.
"Not good! Watch out for their long-range shots!" Yue Feng noticed the opponent's routine and hurriedly warned his teammates. At the same time, his position kept shrinking, helping the midfielder Thomas to press the Chievo player who rushed to the left rib.
On the one hand, he had to guard against the opponent's right winger, and on the other hand, he had to interfere with Chievo's midfielder who was putting in a long shot. Yue Feng had to increase his concentration by [-]%.
Yue Feng went back and forth to observe the opponent's passing routes and players' running positions. At the same time, he also found out the direction of the replacement to assist the team in defense.
But the Chievo veterans were very cunning. Captain Segerer took advantage of the time when the ball went out of bounds, pulled the midfielder Obi and the center Grubacs whispered something.
Naobi is a muscular black player, giving people a very reckless feeling, but after hearing Segre's words, his eyes also started to roll around.
Shortly afterwards, when Chievo launched a wave of offense, three midfielders and three forwards attacked at the same time, attacking Empoli's penalty area.
On the attacking line composed of three Chievo players in the middle, the captain Segre dribbled the ball forward first, and then passed the ball to his center Grubac with a through ball.
Seeing this, Luka and central defender Simon hurried forward and both stopped their opponents.
Grubacs received the ball with his back, and it was difficult to turn around under the defense of the two Empoli players.The Uchida horseman also took the opportunity to approach Grubacs, ready to grab the ball at his feet.
Chievo's attack looked like it would soon be undone by Empoli.
But at this moment, the opponent's midfielder Obi rushed to the edge of Empoli's penalty area, then suddenly tripped and fell into the penalty area.
Someone fell!
Several of Empoli's defenders didn't know why, they were all taken aback by Obi's action, and hurriedly looked towards the referee, wondering if the opponent would award a penalty kick.
Taking advantage of the opponent's stunned effort, Grubac quickly passed the ball back to Chievo captain Segre.
Empoli's midfielder Siredi, who was staring at him, was attracted by Obi and did not take any defensive action.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Segre shot a cold arrow from the edge of the penalty area, and the ball accurately drilled through the gap between the Empoli defenders and scored the goal.
1-1!The two sides returned to the same starting line again.
Thunderous cheers erupted at the Bentcetti Stadium. After scoring the goal, Segre also rushed to the audience, raised his clenched fists, and let out a roar.
At this moment, the wrinkles on Segre's face were terrifying, as if telling his supporters that Chievo would not be easily defeated.
"These old guys are so cunning." Empoli's midfielder Siredi cursed in a low voice. Just now, the opponent used despicable tricks to attract his attention first, and then took the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole to shoot long distances. break down.
What's even more treacherous is that after getting up, Obi immediately signaled to the referee that it was he who tripped, not the opponent's foul, so the referee did not sentence him to dive.
Soldiers never tire of deceit, in Yue Feng's view, this is a very subtle cooperation by the opponent.
His teammates stopped pressing without hearing the referee's whistle. This is a low-level mistake in itself. It is shameful not to blame the opponent. Empoli should pay the price for the mistake.
Ranocchia then replaced the central midfielder Ricky with a No. 12 midfielder Zapata, who is also a veteran, in an attempt to strengthen the defense at the front of the penalty area and reduce the chances of the opponent's long-range shots.
Empoli's defense only played a role this time, and the formation of three midfielders also made Yue Feng and Uchida's two wings more confident, and they continued to step forward to participate in the attack.
Faced with Empoli's counterattack, Chievo did not stand up to defend the tie, but continued to strengthen his offensive firepower.
This is Chievo's bold and unrestrained style. If you are behind, you will chase points, and if you have an advantage, you will not give up.
But the style belongs to the style. Although it is loved by fans, it is not very practical.
Yue Feng hit Chievo in the face again with a side counterattack.
This time he broke through several Chievo defenders first, then cut inside to an open space in the middle, aimed at the goal and swung his right foot.
The old Chievo defenders couldn't react in time, but when they saw Yue Feng was going to shoot from a long distance, they still subconsciously raised their legs to block it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yue Feng once again played the trick of fake shooting and passing the ball through the opponent's defense line, and pushed it straight in front of Stefano.
Stefano was rushing towards Chievo's goal. Seeing Yue Feng passing the ball, there was no reason not to accept it. He directly pushed and scored twice, rewriting the score to 2-1.
After the goal, Stefano hugged the assister Yue Feng again.This goal finally cleared away the haze of being placed by the opponent just now, and it also allowed Empoli to maintain the lead until the end of the first half.
But Uchida Maren on the other side of the court looked at Yue Feng and felt puzzled about it.
Thank you for your support!
