Chapter 551 Salzburg Red Bull's ultimate move

Just when Gao Yuan and Maritimo had nothing to do with the goal guarded by Cleninson, what Gao Yuan was worried about happened.

The counterattack of the Red Bull Salzburg came out.

In the 36th minute, Maritimo made a dazzling pass and cooperation. In the end, Ronaldo opened his bow and shot an arrow in the "J Ronaldo area" he is best at.

The ball flew towards the goal quickly, but Cleninson's position selection was very good, he barely moved, and he caught the ball steadily!
Everyone in Maritimo was stunned, why is this kid so stable?Are you sure he's really only 18?
Just when everyone was in a daze, Cleninson suddenly rushed forward a few steps at an extremely fast speed. Taking advantage of the momentum of the forward rush, he stepped forward and twisted his waist. With a sudden force, he threw the ball far away.

This is to...

Everyone was still watching his movements in a daze, but Gao Yuan shouted loudly from the sidelines, "Quickly return to defense!"

As a coach who has worked in the Taishan team, Gao Yuan is too familiar with the goalkeeper's move!Because the Taishan team also has a goalkeeper who is good at throwing the ball and directly assisting-Wang Dalei.

Only then did the crowd come to their senses, and hurriedly chased back, only to find that the throwing ball was fast, far and accurate.

Throwing it nearly 60 meters away, he flew directly across the half court and landed in the no man's land of the defense line.

The South Korean winger Hwang Hee-chan has already started and is running towards the point where the ball landed.

The timing of the passing and running of the two is very well-placed. Obviously this is a tactic carefully prepared before the game.

It turns out that this goalkeeper not only keeps the goal well, but also has a unicorn arm!
Huang Xican's side player is Dan Suo, a player with the attributes of a wingback.

The central defender Wenjun on this side rushed over to cover the defense, but he was not good at speed. When he ran over, he was already a step late, and Huang Xican had already caught up with the ball.

And because Wen Jun was too anxious and rushed too hard, Huang Xican suddenly punched him in the opposite direction and passed it.

The fullback and central defender on the left side of Maritimo lost their positions at this moment!

Huang Xican continued to rush forward without hesitation, and was about to enter the penalty area. At this time, another central defender, Kusai, came to help defend.

Although Qusay is young, he is the pinnacle of Maritimo's defense. His position is very stable, giving the impression that there is a wall of sighs in front of him!
Sure enough, Huang Xican hesitated for a moment, did not dare to try to break through Qu Sai, but suddenly crossed the ball to the other side in front of the penalty area!
Qu Sai secretly yelled that it was not good, and when he looked up, he saw that the opponent's winger Sekou Koita on the other side had rushed over at full speed.

The Mali black winger was very fast, and although Aguilar followed him closely, he was a bit slower than the opponent.

It was already a step too late for Qusay to rush forward again. He tried to block the angle of the shot with a sliding tackle, but the opponent shot the ball first.

With a "bang", Sekou Koita's shot was full of power and went straight to the goal.

"Wow" There was an uproar in the stadium, this is the rhythm of conceding a goal!
But Niu Gensheng, the goalkeeper of Maritimo, didn't think so. He jumped sideways, his movements were quick and capable, he relaxed his arms, and hit the ball out of the baseline!
Goalkeeper Niu Gensheng made a wonderful save to resolve the must-goal!

The fans breathed a sigh of relief and excitedly discussed the offense and defense this time.

Some said, "The opponent's goalkeeper is really good. Not only does he keep the goal well, but he can also assist directly."

Some said, "Maritimo can't be careless, after all, the opponent is also the team that drew with Real Madrid."

Others said, "Our goalkeeper is not bad, if the opponent's shot is replaced by someone else, it is likely to go in."

The fans mostly watched the excitement, the scene was wonderful, and the home team didn't concede a goal, that's enough.

But Gao Yuan, as an insider, sees it much deeper than ordinary fans.

Gao Yuan's face became more and more serious.Not only because of the opponent's extremely threatening shot, this attack was launched by Cleninson directly throwing the ball, which is very accidental, as long as he pays more attention in the subsequent games; what really puts pressure on Gao Yuan is the opponent's counterattack speed, as well as the tactics and routines in the counterattack.

Gao Yuan noticed that in this counterattack, Huang Xican was not alone in advancing.At the moment when Cleninson threw the throw, Segu Koita, Daka, Sobosroy, and Masano Okukawa were all rushing forward desperately, and the position was wide open, and the purpose of the movement was very clear!
This is also the reason why Huang Xican can pass the ball accurately. In fact, apart from Sekou Koita, several other points also have the threat of direct attack or organizing a second attack.

The opponent's counterattack was very resolute!Obviously this is repeated in daily training!

It turns out that a quick counterattack is the real killing move of the Salzburg Red Bull!
There are two schools of football in today's world, one is pass control and the other is counterattack.

At the peak of Barcelona back then, it performed the transmission and control to the extreme, which can be said to be invincible.But that kind of football needs unborn talents like Harvey, Iniesta and Messi. When these talents are getting old, it will be difficult for both Barcelona Club and Guardiola himself to regain their former glory.

The counterattack style is different, they are a style of play based on defense.An excellent counter-attacking team does not need geniuses or even fast horse players. It only needs strict training and resolute execution of tactics. When the team gets the ball, everyone knows how to run and how to pass. This is enough.

If there are a few stars in such a team who are particularly strong and in line with this technical and tactical style of play, it will be even more serious!
Red Bull Salzburg is exactly such a team!

In fact, Gao Yuan's tactical thinking is also based on quick counterattacks.But Maritimo is not "walking on one leg". In addition to counterattacks, they can also play pass control, do high-position presses, and play long passes. It can be said that they are much more comprehensive than the opponent.

But tactics are not good or bad, as long as they are performed to the extreme, they will be invincible!
In the opening stage, because of his own defensive tactics, the opponent has no room to counterattack.

Afterwards, the opponent took the initiative to retreat, in order to lure Maritimo to take the initiative to attack and give them a chance to fight back.

However, Maritimo's offensive was too strong, and he completely suppressed the Salzburg Red Bull for a while. Although the formation was pressed high, the distance between each other was maintained very well, and the opponent did not find a chance to counterattack.

Now, with the deepening of the game, the physical fitness and concentration of our players began to decline, and the positions of each other could not be kept so good all the time, and the opponent gradually became familiar with Maritimo's defensive tactics, and began to slowly try to create opportunities for counterattacks!

Gao Yuan knew that if there was a first time, there would be a second or third time, and the opponent would start to show his offensive strength.

Sure enough, it was less than 2 minutes after that extremely threatening shot.

When Maritimo was advancing in the frontcourt, Zhou Yong's careless pass was intercepted by the opponent.

The opponent immediately started to counterattack and handed the ball to Sobosroy's feet clearly. At the same time, several offensive players quickly pulled away, each of them was like a needle, piercing the weak area of ​​Maritimo's defense.

Sobosroy made a precise long pass, and the ball accurately found the space behind Aguilar.

Sekou Koita once again overwhelmed the young full-back with his speed, kicking in a cross before the ball was about to cross the line.

It turned out to be a 3-on-3 situation in the penalty area!
There are three defensive players in Maritimo, and the opponent does not know when, there are also three points rushing up to outflank!

3vs3, it's hard to say whether you can hold it!

The ball passed a bit too big, passed Dhaka and Qusay in the front, passed Huang Xican and Wen Jun in the middle, and flew straight to the back!

There are Masano Okkawa and Danso.

And it was Masano Okkawa who received the ball!

Masano Okukawa is worthy of being a typical representative of Japanese technical players. He has first-class stopping skills. When the ball flew over, he licked his chest steadily and unloaded the ball to his feet.

Dansuo wanted to take advantage of his stop to make a clearance, but he had no chance at all.

Masano Okukawa, who stopped the ball, seemed to be going to the middle, and his body centered on the middle, and Dansuo immediately took a step, trying to get stuck between him and the ball.

Who knew it was a fake move!

Masano Okukawa just swayed his center of gravity, but his feet smashed the ball in the opposite direction!
He passed the reckless Dansuo in one go!

"F*ck!" Gao Yuan was startled and angry, and couldn't help but swear, this Dan Suo is a bit floating!I don't understand that the enemy is immovable, and I have forgotten the basic principles of defense!Let him run 1 meters sober for the next training session!Practice 100 one-on-one defense alone!

But that's all for the future. At this moment, Masano Okuan passed the defender in front of him and took a shot!

He is only a few steps away from the goal, and he is sure to shoot here!
Dan Suo, who was passed, turned pale because he was about to concede the ball because of his recklessness!
But seeing the ball was about to fly into the net, a big hand suddenly appeared, and the racket flew out with a slap.

Yes, it's a palm, not a punch. For the goalkeeper, this hand shape is wrong!However, to be able to block this inevitable goal, what else can anyone say other than praise "Awesome"!
It was Niu Gensheng who blocked the ball. He once again saved the team with his irregular but extremely practical moves!

Red Bull Salzburg has Cleninsen on the goal line, and Maritimo also has Niu Gensheng!

This is destined to be a peak duel between top goalkeepers!
