Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 163: An Unremarkable Dagger

Sun Yonggang felt that the mobile phone in his trouser pocket was vibrating, so he took it out to have a look, and a message of the latest battle situation popped up:

Dongchuan Middle School 2:0 Renmin Middle School, goal scorer: Hu Lai (29, 54)

This kid scored again? !

Sun Yonggang was in a daze with his mobile phone.

Then he turned his eyes to the stadium where the game was going on at this time, his eyes were a little complicated.

The second half of the game between Shuguang High School and Haihe No. 3 Middle School has already started. After the adjustment at halftime, the game format has changed. Shuguang High School has become more and more courageous, and has completely occupied the top.

But in fact, looking carefully at the tactics, formation, and personnel, Sun Yonggang didn't see any adjustments.

The players at Dawn High School just became more motivated and more focused...

Just five minutes before Hu Lai's goal, Chen Xingyi scored twice to help Shuguang High School take the lead again.

He shook his head slightly.

If Sun Yonggang knew that the two games were going on at the same time, it would be absolutely impossible for the players on the field to know what happened in the other field. He really wanted to think that these two people were on purpose...

Although... Logically speaking, with Chen Xingyi's reputation, past record and strength in the national competition, how could Hu Lai be qualified to compete with him?

But Sun Yonggang just had such an absurd idea.

Perhaps it was because he had heard these two teenagers fighting each other at the airport...

In the stands of the football field of Lingnan Institute of Technology, Chu Yifan's other three roommates stared at the field dumbfounded.

Just now, the No. 14 striker of Dongchuan Middle School once again completed his weird celebration in front of everyone present.

And his teammates swarmed in and surrounded him for the second time.

"Haha, I would like to admit defeat!" Chu Yifan clapped his hands and laughed loudly in the stands, "Thank you brothers for your hospitality!"

The three roommates frowned, shook their heads and said, "That's impossible...how did this goal go in?"

"Isn't this diving to the top too exaggerated? Directly using a diving to the top of the penalty spot...Why do I feel that this goal is more likely to be scored?"

Chu Yifan smiled and said, "Don't worry about whether he got the ball or not. The fact is that Dongchuan Middle School scored the goal when Renmin Middle School had the upper hand. Don't lie to your debts!"

The three roommates looked at each other and sighed at the same time. After inviting Da Chu one by one, they might only have instant noodles...

Li Ziqiang was still expressionless. Even though his team was two goals ahead of Renmin Middle School, the top four in the last national competition, he did not laugh out loud because of his excitement.

In fact, his most violent action was just getting up and going out after Hu Lai scored a goal, and shook his fist.

But the expression on his face was always tense, even more tense after the goal-he punched with his back molars gritted.

His face was tense, but in fact Li Ziqiang was very happy in his heart, or he felt a sense of accomplishment.

Since Luo Kai left,

He just wants to build a team that meets his expectations.

For this reason, after returning from the national competition last year, he asked the freshman and sophomore players who stayed in the team to do more basic physical training, mainly to practice physical fitness, which is actually laying the foundation.

Without enough physical fitness as a basis, the offensive and defensive tactics he envisioned are destined to be just castles in the air.

The arrival of Xia Xiaoyu and Chen Rui after Gao Yizhaoxin was a surprise, but it also made it easier to implement his idea.

Originally, in Li Ziqiang's plan, even without someone like Xia Xiaoyu, it wouldn't be too much trouble. After all, it is said that offense and defense are integrated, so naturally the strength of the whole team should be relied on in the offense, not a single person.

So it's good to have Xia Xiaoyu, but it's not a problem without Xia Xiaoyu.

As for Hu Lai, it is the most important part of this set of tactics.

It is different from Renmin Middle School's head coach Sun Yiming, Renmin Middle School players, Chu Yifan's roommates, and others who think that Xia Xiaoyu is the core of the team.

On the contrary, in Li Ziqiang's heart, Hu Lai is the core of this team.

Because without him, all of Li Ziqiang's previous arrangements would be just a joke. After all, no matter how you combine offense and defense, there must always be someone who can send the football into the opponent's goal, right?

Can other people do it, like Shen Yulin?

In fact, it works, but it's not as easy to use as Hu Lai...or it works sometimes, and sometimes it doesn't work.

In fact, even if Luo Kai came, I'm afraid he couldn't compare to Hu Lai's scoring ability.

There are many tactics, no matter how ingeniously designed, if the goal cannot be scored in the end, then all the previous designs will become false.

After all, the support of all tactics must be goals. If your team can't score goals, it will be difficult to sustain in the game. Even Jiaxiang High School, which is good at defense, must have a striker like Xu Gaofei who is good at counterattacking.

It's just that in today's football, scoring goals seems to be no longer the task of the center forward. In many tactics, the center and even the forward are only part of the team's tactics, and the more important role is to contain and defend. Use your own running position to contain the opponent's defense, and create opportunities for teammates on the back to create space.

There was a time when "no strikers" was popular in world football. You can tell what it means by looking at the name, and you can score goals without a striker.

In the past two decades, under the impact of various tactical ideas, centers have been required to be more comprehensive and versatile. Even a center forward may not be able to shoot or score goals, but he absolutely cannot pass the ball, hold the ball, protect the ball, or involve running positions... In other words, even if the center forward has double-digit scoring He can't even score the ball, but as long as he can return to the defense when the team is defending, can stretch the defense when attacking, provide assists for his teammates, and connect the frontcourt, then he is a good center forward.

As for the matter of scoring, some midfielders, wide midfielders, or wingers do it. It's enough for the center to hold the opponent's defender.

Under this trend of thought, the cultivation of center forward talents naturally follows this direction.

Some people score single digits in a season, but because of their excellent physical fitness, they can always return to the defense in time, and they can also faithfully implement the head coach's tactics. The team has a solid defense, and on the other hand, it can also help the team counterattack on the spot after countering. So sit firmly as the main center of the rich team.

Some people score few goals in a season, but because of their outstanding tactical effects, they can still take the blame after losing. Naturally, the main force of the giants has no worries.

Li Ziqiang is not saying that these centers are not good, these tactics are not good, for example, his overall offensive and defensive tactics are actually one of the more popular tactics.

Some centers are indeed a very important part of the tactics. If there is no center forward to contain the opponent's defense, if there is no center as the bridgehead of the team's offense, the performance of those teams will be greatly reduced.

But Li Ziqiang just felt that everyone was too extreme, as if a center who is not comprehensive enough is not a good center and cannot be used.

In the final analysis, doesn't football still depend on who scores more goals? So since there is a center forward who can score goals, why can't he use it?

What's more, those European giants and world football powers have all kinds of outstanding talents. They can afford to play without a striker. What about other teams?

Just like the Chinese team.

Nowadays, the Chinese team is plagued by the lack of excellent forwards. Even if they face some underdogs, they often have the dilemma of being unable to score a goal in tens of minutes.

Moreover, the overall strength of the Chinese team's midfield and backcourt is really not strong in today's Asian football. If there is no striker who is particularly good at scoring goals, how can it be possible to achieve good results? After all, when your overall strength is not dominant, if you can’t attack for a long time, the morale of both sides will naturally ebb and flow. The Chinese team will become more impatient as they fight, while the defensive side will become more confident as they defend.

If they encounter an opponent whose strength is almost the same as that of the Chinese team, or even better than the Chinese team, then the poor scoring ability will become a fatal flaw.

So before, the head coach of the Chinese national team also played a "no striker formation". On the one hand, he may really want to keep up with the mainstream of world football. The forwards are forced-there are no forwards available, what do you do if you don't play "no striker"?

Of course, the result of doing so is naturally a failure, because Haoqiang uses the "no front" because their midfield is strong, and the Chinese team uses this because the striker can't score... But the midfield is not strong. If it is strong, what good will it do to play without a front?

So after seeing Hu Lai's ability, Li Ziqiang already had a decision in his heart. In his sophomore year of high school, Hu Lai directly announced his position as the core of the offense to the whole team, and told everyone clearly what kind of football he wanted to play, and then everyone worked hard in this direction. Lest anyone question and provoke his authority, wasting everyone's time and energy.

Simply decisively surprised those sophomores and seniors - everyone still remembers how the head coach looked down on Hu Lai at the beginning, but it turned out that after the head coach changed his mind, he seemed to have no memory at all It's the same as my attitude towards Hu Lai before.

Li Ziqiang doesn't care what others think of him, he only cares about whether his tactics can be implemented and observed, and whether he can succeed.

In the Anton Cup, he has actually been experimenting with this tactic, wanting to see how it works.

And the end result is, of course, surprisingly good.

Hu Lai became the top scorer of the Andong Cup, Dongchuan Middle School also successfully defended the title of the Andong Cup, and won the right to participate in the national competition again.

Among them, the 3:1 victory over Jiaxiang High School was Hu Lai's masterpiece - as the main center, he was targeted by Jiaxiang High School collectively. Under such circumstances, Hu Lai can still grasp the few opportunities , scored a goal.

This person is not like Luo Kai, he is not fancy or ugly, even a little ordinary, but it looks like an ordinary dagger. The appearance is ordinary to avoid attracting attention, but it is extremely sharp. One stab at the front can easily kill a person.

Li Ziqiang turned his head and glanced at Sun Yiming who was standing dumbfounded on the sidelines.

He has learned about the information and resume of the head coach of Renmin Middle School, and knows that he is a head coach who believes in the theory of "the midfield wins". He believes that the midfield is the most important part of a team, and a strong midfield makes the team strong. A weak midfield means a weak team.

It stands to reason that it is true... After all, the midfielder has both offense and defense. A strong midfielder can advance, attack and retreat, and can directly score goals while reducing defensive pressure, without the need for a forward with strong scoring ability.

But if Hu Lai's "ordinary" dagger is ignored because of this, it will be a big problem.

Li Ziqiang once thought that although Hu Lai had a good talent, his foundation was too weak to be of great use. So at the beginning, he didn't regard Hu Lai as a member of his team. At that time, he recruited 16 new players. He originally recruited 15 people. In the end, Hu Lai's name was obviously added by Li Ziqiang on a whim... Thinking that this kid would definitely not be able to survive the basic training he assigned, he would take the initiative to leave.

As a result, this kid not only survived the more or less difficult basic training he arranged for him, but also progressed like a rocket, from coming off the bench for the first time in the Anton Cup to scoring three goals in the national competition ; From the first year of high school, he could only rely on being clever to score goals, to the second year of high school, he can carry the captain of Jiaxiang High School to complete the goal... This progress is really rapid, and Li Ziqiang's worries about his "weak foundation" have been cast aside.

Now that the foundation is solid, Li Ziqiang no longer has the previous prejudice against Hu Lai, and naturally wants to fully squeeze his ability.

From the national competition in the first year of high school to the present, his efforts on Hu Lai have not been in vain.

He didn't know where Dongchuan Middle School's national competition would go in the end, but facing all kinds of opponents, he was always more calm than last year.
