at this time.

British BBC Sports TV is performing slow-motion replays of the just-shot.

The playback started with Zhen Shaolong receiving the ball.

The game commentator, former England star Leinker, is analyzing the process, "Let's look at Zhen Shaolong, he received a pass from his teammates."

"Protect the ball! Fake action!"

"Cambiyasuo's defense is very old. He used his running to block the route Zhen Shaolong to the middle."

"Samuel is here!"

"Cambiyasuo and Samuel plan to attack Zhen Shaolong forward and backward. They almost blocked all routes of Zhen Shaolong and his teammates, and it is unlikely to pass the ball..."

"It's now! Zhen Shaolong picked the ball... It's not right! It's a fake move. He crossed Cambiaso, and the football was kicked from the right."

"Cambiyasuo was cheated! Samuel was cheated too!"

"This fake move is so wonderful! One move deceived Cambiaso and Samuel. It's too late to catch up with them!"

"The last shot!"

"This shot angle is very tricky, but unfortunately the distance is too far, and it was saved by goalkeeper Cesar. It seems that Cesar is in good condition, and his judgment is very fast and accurate. He blocked the ball out of the goal with a textbook save..."

Reinkell finally praised Cesar, but he described Zhen Shaolong's breakthrough process in the middle, and praised Zhen Shaolong's fake actions.

“Very excellent!”

“Excellent!”

"One move deceived Cambiaso and Samuel!"

On the field.

After Newcastle United's attack ended, Samuel and Cambiaso looked at each other, and couldn't help but be shocked by being broken through together. They were still very confident about their defensive strength. Unexpectedly, the opponent's breakthrough was extremely exquisite, and the fake movements seemed to be real.

What the two couldn't understand was, "Didn't they say he won't break through?"

Before the game, head coach Mourinho made detailed arrangements for Zhen Shaolong's defense, "His technical flaws are obvious and he will basically not make breakthroughs. I have watched many videos, and his breakthroughs rely on speed, not technology!"

"So we just don't give him space, don't let him run, attack and defend in the middle and backcourt, limit him with space and pressing..."

Mourinho's simple explanation for the defense is to cooperate with each other in the middle and backcourts. As long as Zhen Shaolong comes to the front to receive the ball, he will face the front and back double-teams of the two players.

Inter Milan's midfield and backcourt players are undoubtedly quite strong in defense.

With the two players' clamping defense, even the top-notch players will find it difficult to perform any more, and they are also very targeted to Zhen Shaolong, because he has to face huge defensive pressure at any time, and his space for performance is extremely compressed. When he receives a pass in front, he will find it difficult to have the chance to take a kick.

It's easy to say, but difficult to do.

If it is an ordinary Premier League team, it is almost impossible to use the cooperation of central defenders to complete the defense of individual players. Even top teams such as Manchester United and Chelsea will be difficult to do it.

Because of tacit understanding.

Because of defensive play and habits.

Inter Milan is different.

Inter Milan is an Italian team. The outstanding feature of the Italian team lies in the tight defense cooperation in the backcourt. In the 1990s, Italy's "chain defense" was famous all over the world. To this day, the defense of each team is no longer limited to a simple "chain". There are many ways to cooperate in the defense of backcourt players. For example, the top Italian clubs like Inter Milan, the defense can be so superb that no one is missing. Even if a certain point is broken, it will be difficult for others to make up for defense as quickly as possible.

Inter Milan's defense is already excellent, Mourinho thought about it and formulated a defensive strategy against Zhen Shaolong.

The advantages of this strategy are also obvious.

Because there was no one to be sent to guard the defense alone, Inter Milan did not pay too high a price to defend against Zhen Shaolong. Every player could play normally. This alone is more than the other teams' way of sending single-player defense.

certainly.

No tactic can be perfect.

If Mourinho wants to implement the strategy perfectly, the players must not perform poorly on the field. In addition, the ones they are most afraid of are players who are defended. Their skills are excellent under their feet, and their ability to break through is even more fatal.

Targeted strategies are used on stars such as Messi, C-Ronaldo, and not only do not have any effect, but also have a defensive countermeasure. As long as they can break through the front and back defense, the front will be empty, and the goal will become very dangerous.

Zhen Shaolong's breakthrough shot failed to complete the goal, which was not that big. Inter Milan was a little wary, but most of them didn't care much.

Just a breakthrough.

Even a strong defender player will make mistakes. It is normal for a rookie striker to perform occasionally. It doesn’t mean that a good performance once does not mean anything.

Inter Milan excitedly launched an offensive towards Newcastle United.

Inter Milan can be considered by Italian media to "definitely win the championship", and even AC Milan cannot compete with it. There is no doubt about its strength. After Mourinho took the coaching point, he quickly adjusted the formation to 433.

Inter Milan, which uses the 433 formation, enhances its defensive capabilities in the backcourt, and the offensive capabilities are not affected. What is sacrificed is the players' running.

In Inter Milan, the average running distance of players in a single game is one-third more than when Mancini coached.

Run more, consume more physical energy.

certainly.

In the face of overall performance and stability, it is nothing to consume more physical energy by players. Even if some players cannot keep up with their physical fitness, there are still many stars who want to consume physical energy sitting on Inter Milan's bench, and their strength is not much worse than that.

Newcastle United is much weaker than it is.

Less than ten minutes into the game, you can see from the scene that Newcastle United played very passively, and the reason for the passiveness is naturally because of its lack of strength.

In addition, Newcastle United's tactics are not very stable, and the players are not very adapted to the new style of play.

The responsibility for this is on head coach Keegan.

Keegan advocates offensive football and has made major changes to tactics after taking office.

When a team's tactics are major changes, it is not possible to adapt to it in a short time. A set of inherent tactical systems, it takes several seasons to mature. Players who are not adapted to tactics in the middle will leave and add some players who can adapt to tactics. After several consecutive adjustments, a set of tactics can mature.

Tactics require players to play.

It has only been two months since the summer preparations. Newcastle United's lineup has not been adjusted, and only the defense line has been added to the signing line, so their adaptation to the new tactics is naturally very poor.

This is also the fundamental reason why Newcastle United won three games in August.

Now facing the powerful Inter Milan, the disadvantages of Newcastle United's unshakable playing style have been clearly shown, and the performance of midfielders is a bit chaotic. Sometimes football is controlled by Inter Milan, and players don't even know how to run.

Side by.

Keegan was a little worried when he watched the game. Of course, he knew the reason for the team's passiveness. There was a gap in strength between Newcastle United and Inter Milan, but it was definitely not as big as that on the court. The main reason was that the team did not fully adapt to the tactics.

There is nothing we can do about this either.

It will definitely take one or two seasons for general head coaches to integrate a new team. The new season has just begun, and Newcastle United needs more experience.

According to Keegan's idea, this season should be "no goal" and as long as you can complete relegation, Newcastle United's performance will definitely improve steadily in the last one and two seasons.

pity.

Club chairman Ashley refused, and Newcastle fans would not agree, because on the surface, Newcastle United won the Premier League last season and the new coach took office, he was so pitiful that he aimed to relegation as his goal?

Then what else to do if you change your handsome guy?

Keegan thought about it carefully, but he knew that the main reason for Newcastle United's victory was Zhen Shaolong's performance, not how strong Newcastle United is overall.

Now we can only watch the players on the court perform.

Keegan couldn't help but look at the No. 13, and he also had a lot of expectations in his heart. He suddenly realized that he shouldn't think so, "How can I put the hope of winning in the performance of a player!"

"no!"

"I won by tactics! Not by players! Otherwise, what's the difference between me and Sam (Alledes) who is not very capable?"

On the field.

Zhen Shaolong is in front of the field and is Xianyu.

In fact, he really wants to perform and work hard, but he didn't expect the team to be suppressed so seriously that he couldn't even receive the ball in the frontcourt for a long time.

then……

He stood there and fisted gently, shouting slogans at the rhythm, "Come on! Newcastle!"

"Come on! Philip!"

"Come on! Alan!"

"come on……"

Qiwo next to him didn't know what Zhen Shaolong was doing. When he got closer, he heard it carefully, his face was full of black lines, "Don't you go back to defend?"

"No."

Zhen Shaolong shook his head immediately.

"Why?"

Zhen Shaolong looked down at his feet and said seriously, "My feet are for goals, not for defense from behind."

“…”

Ziwo felt that he could not communicate with a genius (minal retardant).

Two minutes later.

Perhaps it was Zhen Shaolong's silent cheering that played a role, Newcastle United finally stabilized the formation, firmly controlled the football under his feet, and launched a stable offensive.
