Beast King Costa

Chapter 425 It really is 3-4-3!

Wednesday!

The Europa League match day battle is in full swing!

But the attention of the entire Iberian Peninsula football is on the landmark building of Lisbon, the Stadium of Light!

Benfica sits at home against Sevilla!
The top team in the Portuguese Super League played against the fourth in La Liga!

This game is not only related to the ownership of the first qualifying team in the Europa League group, but more importantly, the face of the Portuguese Super League and La Liga!

In the first round of the confrontation between the two sides, at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium, Benfica scored 2 goals in a row to complete an earth-shattering reversal when they were behind by 4 goals, which shocked La Liga. After all, Ramon Sanchez ·Pizjuan Stadium can be called the home of the devil in La Liga. Even if it is as strong as Barcelona and Real Madrid, it suffers daily losses, but it is overthrown by a team that only ranked fourth in the Portuguese Super League last season?
This is really hard for La Liga people to accept!
Before the expedition, Sevilla not only received official encouragement from La Liga, but even many La Liga teams sent emails to cheer for Sevilla. Even Real Betis, the mortal enemy in Andalusia, also received Standing on the same side as Sevilla, I hope Sevilla can win the first place in the Europa League group stage and stand up for the knockout stage.

Having been placed high hopes by many parties, how dare the Sevilla people not work hard?

Under the official support activity of the Sevilla Club, 7000 Spanish fans traveled to Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, to cheer for Sevilla at the Stadium of Light.

Some fans who couldn't buy tickets for the away team's fan area even risked being beaten up and bought tickets for the home team's fan area directly in a group, in order to increase the cheer for Sevilla.

In this game, Juande Ramos did not disappoint the fans present, a full lineup came out!

the most important is!Juande Ramos really adopted the reporter's suggestion from the Catalan newspaper and put out an unprecedented 3-4-3 formation!

Goalkeeper: Andre Sparrow;
Linebackers: David Casteldo, Javi Navarro, Julien Escuder.

Midfielders: Duda, Renato, Enzo Maresca, Daniel Alves
Forwards: Frederic Canoute, Luis Fabiano, Blanco Kepa.

Although David Casteldo often forms a two-wing configuration with Daniel Alves at the full-back position, in fact, David Casteldo is a central defender himself, and his individual defensive ability is quite good , On the contrary, the ability to plug in behind is not as terrifying as Daniel Alves.

If the main three-back formation is used, David Casteld will return to the central defender position, and more to help the late central defender Harvey Navarro to make up for the position, and reduce the number of assists in the back, and the effect may be quite good. not bad.However, since Juand Ramos took charge of Sevilla, David Casteldo has always played the full-back position. It remains to be seen what effect he can play when he returns to the central defender position this time.

After changing to a 3-4-3 formation, in terms of the configuration of the winger, the Spanish native winger Jesuli sat on the bench, and Daniel Alves, the "Brazilian Magic Wing", was pushed to the position of the right winger superior.

This also means that Daniel Alves' energy in this game will basically be on the offensive end, and he won't care too much about the defensive end.

Originally Sevilla's right midfielder position, the Spanish native midfielder Jesuli is a player with a relatively [-]-[-] defensive ability and offensive ability, while the left midfielder Portugal international Duda is strong in offense and weak in defense. Let Duda and Daniel Alves partner in the winger position, which will also match a pair of winger configurations with very terrifying offensive capabilities!

As a wing back who can be called the strongest wing back in La Liga at present, Daniel Alves puts all his energy on the wing attack, and Duda, who is quite delicate in footwork, returns In the homeland of Portugal, how will they set off a crazy wing attack climax for Sevilla?This really makes the fans look forward to it!
In the three-forward formation, Juande Ramos did not accidentally choose Blanco Kepa.

In fact, the only striker in Sevilla who can keep up with Frederic Canoute, the "Tower of Africa" ​​and the Brazilian striker Luis Fabiano, is Blanco Kepa. Alone.

However, the position of Frederic Canoute, Luis Fabiano and Blanco Kepa on the front line will have to be studied in the official game.

……

"Juande Ramos really set up a 3-4-3 formation! And he really pulled Daniel Alves to the winger position!"

When he got Sevilla's starting lineup, Rui Costa immediately burst into laughter-Juande Ramos' starting lineup, both the lineup and the formation, were exactly the same as his guess!
Moreover, when Benfica was preparing for the game, they prepared according to this 3-4-3 formation and starting lineup. Now it can be said that it takes no effort.

In this game, Rui Costa also made targeted deployments in the starting lineup!

But Rui Costa's targeted deployment must be beyond the guess of the opponent's coach Juande Ramos!

Goalkeeper: Moreto.

Defenders: Assis, Louison, David Luiz, Nelson.

Back midfielder: Petit, Kaliaka, Carter Solanis.

Forwards: Simão, Diego, Nuno Gomez.

On the bench, Rui Costa, the veritable head coach of Benfica in this game, not only entered the coaching bench as an assistant coach of Benfica, but also registered into Benfica's 18-man squad because of Beto's hamstring injury There is no way to play, so Beto did not enter Benfica's 18-man squad in this game.

In addition, Yu Dabao, a young Chinese midfielder favored by Rui Costa, did not register to enter the squad for the Europa League in Benfica in the first half, and Rui Costa was not interested in recruiting Joao Kumbra returned to the first team, and since that's the case, then the 38-year-old Rui Costa will be on the bench himself.

In addition to Rui Costa on the bench, there are Quim, Calagonis, Mantolas, Paul Jorge, Leonardo Bastos, Fabrizio Milico.

But in the final analysis, many people on Benfica's bench are making up the numbers, like Quim... have already slapped the table to leave Benfica, looking for a team that will give him a stable starting opportunity, and Leonardo Ba Storrs, after Rui Costa became the real head coach of Benfica, he basically sat in the limbo. As for Fabrizio Milico, because of his limited strength, Rui Costa also Return it to Florence in preparation for the winter window.

This also means that on Benfica's bench in this game, there are only a handful of players who will really get a chance.

In addition to Mantolas, it is estimated that Paul Jorge will be able to get a chance.

And Karagonis' physical condition is not very good, so it depends on Simao's physical condition.

As for Rui Costa... In this game, he must play to control the situation on the field. As for when to play, it depends on the situation of the scene.

……

"This starting lineup and starting players are beyond my expectation!"

In the visiting team's locker room, when Juande Ramos got the 18-man squad for Benfica's game, he was stunned.

In this game, Rui Costa played a 4-3-3 formation!The most important thing is that Kaliaka, a defensive midfielder, replaced the presence of an offensive midfielder, and Simao went to the left, while Nuno Gomez, who originally played an attacking midfielder, was placed on the right. road!
Although Juande Ramos guessed that Rui Costa or Fernando Santos would start Cagliaka, Juande Ramos would never guess that Benfica will play a 4-3-3 formation in this game !Not to mention, not only Simao went to the left, but Nuno Gomez would be arranged to go to the right!
What the hell is going on! ?

After studying for five or six minutes, Juande Ramos decided that it would be better to continue studying than wasting time.

because!

Juande Ramos couldn't even guess whether Benfica's starting lineup for this game was arranged by Fernando Santos or Rui Costa. What is the meaning of analysis at this moment?It's better to wait until the meeting starts and see what kind of playing style Benfica is playing. If you don't know, what the hell is Benfica's starting lineup playing in this game?
"After the opening, the rhythm should be played at a leisurely pace for me!"

Juande Ramos thought about it with a cloudy face, and then emphasized with the players: "Now, I can't see what is going on with Benfica's starting lineup at all. At most, I can see it. Kaliaka’s starting lineup is aimed at our three-forward formation, but! I guess, Benfica will let Carter Solanis come to the bench, let Kaliaka and Pettit partner with double midfielders.”

说到这里，胡安德·拉莫斯头摇得像拨浪鼓一样：“没想到！这场比赛本菲卡居然也变阵了。4-3-3阵型！这个赛季本菲卡压根就没有打过4-3-3，所以有些促不及防了。”

"Coach Ramos, we haven't played in a 3-4-3 formation before. Isn't Benfica too late to guard against it?"

Sevilla captain Renato said with a smile: "Anyway, both sides have changed, and both sides are caught off guard. It depends on who can catch them by surprise!"

In this regard, the entire Sevilla team laughed in an uproar in the visiting team's locker room.

"That must be a surprise for us!"

"This game! Let's win at a certain pace!"

"Be sure to win Benfica! Win the first place in the group!"

"Our goal this season is to defend the title!"

"Hahahaha! Sevilla is the king of the Europa League!"
