Compared with Flores' self-confidence, Jimenez is a little frowning.

Looking at the players in the locker room who bowed their heads and said nothing, most of their anger disappeared.

The two conceded goals in the first half seemed to be accidents in the eyes of the fans.

But Jimenez knew in his heart that this was caused by his own mistakes.

In the original plan, he arranged for Zokola to target Lindy specifically.

Because in Lindy's data report:

[-]. Excellent physical fitness;

[-]. Possess a good ability to head the ball to grab points;

[-]. Often have an advantage in physical confrontation;

[-]. Strong one-to-one defensive ability and strong midfield interception ability;

[-]. Have a certain ability to organize and attack (to be observed);

It should be enough to arrange a midfielder to take care of the offense, right?

But it was the last one, the damn last one, that allowed them to concede two goals in a row in the first half.

You can't arrange for "Kante" to guard "Makelele" 24 hours a day, right?

Clearing his throat, Jimenez had already made up his mind. At the Pizjuan Stadium, he would not just admit defeat.

He took out the tactical board and began to arrange new tasks:

"In the second half, we played anti-counterattack. Everyone withdrew, leaving only Fabiano in the frontcourt." As he spoke, he lined up everyone's names in front of the penalty area.

"Renato, I don't want to see you dangling in the midfield while defending in the second half!"

"Okay, boss." The Brazilian was a little guilty, but he couldn't be blamed for it, the gene for offense was engraved in his bones, and he couldn't control it.

"Diego (Capel), your mission has changed in the second half. When you are in front of the penalty area, keep an eye on that Argentine kid, and just block his shooting position. Don't go up and grab it!" Pell's name was placed next to Aguero, and he played fast. As long as he got stuck, someone would naturally solve him.

"understand!"

"Didier (Zokola), your task remains the same, responsible for Lindy's marking task in the frontcourt, and the same sentence, don't rush up, don't fight your body, and get stuck in the forward passing line! The ball to the two sides is handed over to the teammates to solve." Jimenez drew a line between Lindy and the penalty area and gave it to Zokola.

After making a series of arrangements, the second half of the game also started on time.

Contrary to Jimenez's expectations, Atletico Madrid made a lot of personnel adjustments, which made his halftime operation a bit tasteless. It's not completely useless, at least the idea of ​​defense is correct of.

"Atletico Madrid has made personnel adjustments. We see that Lindy and Forlan have been replaced. They are replaced by two newcomers, Diego Costa and Thiago. Atletico Madrid is going to play pure offense. Formation." Although he said this, Lao Liu had a feeling that he was going to get off work.

"Ah, Lindy is off work? No, Lindy has been replaced. Hey, it's a pity." Xiao Ma felt a little led by Old Liu.

Flores glanced at the bewildered Jimenez, and was a little funny: "Everyone thought I was going to test the new lineup with underdogs, but that kind of test has no reference at all. Do you know what a game is? Instead of buying, the villa is near the sea?"

In the second half of the game, just as Jimenez thought, Atletico Madrid took the initiative to attack again.

But what he didn't expect was that Atletico Madrid's attack came so fiercely.

Although Thiago and Jurado cooperated for the first time, the pressure brought by the two technical midfielders to Sevilla is not comparable to that of Lindy.

Moreover, in pure offense, Thiago is more threatening than Lindy and Paul Assuncao.

The game time is 53 minutes.

Atletico Madrid's new midfield duo handed the football to newcomer Diego Costa after a flurry of passes.

The latter directly squeezed Squillac away, shot an angry shot from the edge of the penalty area, and scored.

This is his second shot since he played, and Flores is very pleased.

Atletico Madrid's gorgeous offense made the fans in front of the TV hooked.

But the good times don't last long. This lineup is really easy to use in offense, but it also has its weaknesses.

3:1

The game time is 59 minutes.

Sevilla used the opportunity of a quick goal kick to launch a counterattack.

The football fell to Navas' feet, and Atletico Madrid hadn't all withdrawn at this time.

Navas and Fabiano's frontcourt rush tore two huge gaps in Atletico Madrid's defense.

In the end, Fabiano easily broke the goal single-handedly, and De Gea also looked helpless.

But Flores didn't mean to stop the attack, and continued to wave his hand to let the players continue to attack.

The score was rewritten to 3:2, and Atletico Madrid still had a goal advantage.

The game time is 68 minutes.

Atletico Madrid got another chance, and Aguero and Reyes suddenly sparked in the penalty area.

After receiving a bottom pass from Salvio, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred.

The ball was knocked across to Reyes, who came from the wing, and the latter calmly pushed and scored.

4:

In the following time, Sevilla also scored again, but failed to continue to rewrite the score.

In the end, Atletico Madrid delivered a beautiful answer in the away game 4:3.

Flores saw the diversification of Atletico Madrid's offense during the game, and also discovered the drawbacks of this lineup.

He is more confident about the next game.

after this game

Atletico Madrid ranked fourth in the league with 12 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses with 41 points;

No.1是巴塞罗那15胜4平0负,积49分;

No.2是皇家马德里15胜2平2负,积47分;

No.3是赫塔菲13胜4平2负,积43分;

After that, there are Valencia, Villarreal, Athletic Bilbach, and Sevilla. The scores of these teams are very close.

at the post-match press conference.

In the face of the reporter's long guns and short guns, Flores still insisted on the goal of the top four in the league.

And highly praised Sevilla's field performance.

In the end, he was full of praise for the performance of the two new additions in the second half.

……

The players who returned to Madrid to resume training were all warmed up by the physical coach on the training ground.

And Flores and Sandy arrived late from the office.

Seeing that the head coach is in a good mood with a smile on his face, everyone is also relaxed.

Flores waited for everyone to stand still and cleared his throat: "Next, we will start preparations for the Champions League knockout round. I hope that each of you will take it seriously. Now start practicing in groups and report names to the left."

Sandy picked up the tactical board in his hand and began to read the names: Asenjo, Lopez, Ujfalusi, Dominguez, Valera, Reyes, Thiago, Lindy, Jurado, Simao, Aguero.

The rest went to the other side.

Most of the people who were named were excited, and some were neither happy nor sad, such as Lopez, Lindy, and Simao.

But Asenjo was very surprised. This was the first time he entered the main lineup after being injured.

In the eyes of everyone, two months after Flores came, Atletico Madrid has indeed changed a lot.

But it has also become less familiar to them, which makes the players a little uncomfortable.

So far, no one has said anything...

……

ps: There are still five days left in the summer window of La Liga. Let's see how Barcelona solves the problem.
