Football: Three sure-fire weaknesses in every match!

The teaching assistant continued:

"Of course, not to get out of control."

"It's to get him into our rhythm."

The angrier he gets, the more anxious he becomes.

"The more you want to prove yourself..."

"The easier it is to break away from Sampdoria's original attacking system."

"As long as he leaves B-Fee."

Even if he starts working alone.

"The more he expends energy, the higher his risk of injury will be."

"Sampdoria will become simple."

Spalletti finally looked up.

Looking at Lin Qi's name on the tactics board.

"The point isn't to hurt anyone, but of course, it's fine if someone actually gets hurt!"

He said.

"The key is to make him afraid to receive the ball."

The teaching assistant nodded immediately.

"clear."

Spalletti's tone was cold.

"What I want is oppression."

"It's about intensity."

"It's about making him pay the price for every touch of the ball."

"But if someone gets a red card for a stupid move."

He turned to look at the teaching assistant.

His eyes were sharp.

"I'll be the first to kick him out of the starting lineup."

The teaching assistant's expression hardened.

"clear."

Spalletti certainly knew that this kind of match couldn't really get out of control.

Rome didn't come here to fight.

We've come to climb to the top.

But he knew it better.

Facing a player like Lin Qi.

A clean and polite defense is almost tantamount to giving the opponent a stage to perform.

We must be tough.

It must be fierce.

The opponent must understand this from the very first minute:

tonight.

There is no comfortable ball.

Just then.

Totti happened to be passing by.

I only heard the last few sentences.

"Every touch of the ball comes at a price."

Totti paused for a moment.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Spalletti is still Spalletti.

Desire for control.

oppression.

discipline.

strength.

Always believe that his system can overwhelm the individual.

But in football, some individuals, once truly ignited...

The system will also be burned through.

Totti remained silent.

There was no warning.

Just keep moving forward.

Since this Roma team no longer needs his voice.

Then he watched quietly.

Look at Spalletti's tough approach.

How exactly can they trap Lin Qi?

It will still thoroughly enrage that young Chinese man.

We'll see.

……

On the day of the match.

There's still over an hour until kickoff.

The atmosphere inside the stadium is starting to heat up.

Fans began entering the stands.

Blue, white, red, and yellow colors slowly spread out between the stands.

Outside the home team's locker room.

Staff members were busy moving around.

Away team zone.

The Roma coaching staff has also received Sampdoria's starting lineup for this match.

After reading it, the teaching assistants' expressions changed slightly.

One of them immediately took the list and strode towards Spalletti.

"Luciano".

"Sampdoria's starting lineup is out."

Spalletti is looking down at the tactics board.

"explain."

The teaching assistant handed over the list.

There was a hint of surprise in his tone.

"Muriel is not partnering Lin Qi in the forward line today."

"It's Hick."

"Patrick Hick".

"A young center."

"I've hardly ever played before."

Spalletti looked up.

I took the list and glanced at it.

Then there was no panic on his face.

Instead, he revealed an expression of "I knew it."

"Don't be nervous."

He gently placed the list on the table.

"Didn't you see the news?"

"Muriel is still dealing with his troubles in Milan."

The teaching assistant's expression was a little strange.

After all, that matter has already spread to some paparazzi magazines.

Even though many media outlets wrote vaguely, insiders generally knew what had happened.

Spalletti gave a cold laugh.

"Although Muriel's goal-scoring ability is inconsistent."

"Even on many occasions, their choices regarding ball handling are very poor."

"But he has one function."

"He can provide support for Lin Qi."

"He's fast."

"Dare to charge."

"It can create chaos."

"Opportunities can also be found in chaos."

He pointed to the left side of Sampdoria on the tactics board.

"When he's on the field, the opposing defenders have to pay at least some attention to defending him."

"This will give Lin Qi some space."

"But now."

"This person is gone."

He looked at the teaching assistant.

"Sampdoria can only field a young center forward with almost no experience."

"Hick".

"One meter ninety-one."

"His physical condition is good."

"But Serie A matches are not youth team matches."

"It's not something you can master just by being tall."

The teaching assistant nodded.

Spalletti continued:

"That's the problem with small clubs."

"The starting eleven looks impactful."

"Once a key piece of the puzzle is missing."

"The thickness of the bench immediately gave it away."

His tone carried a clear judgment.

"Gianpo is thinking clearly."

"He knew he couldn't field an aging player like Quagliarella whose physical abilities were declining."

"Quagliarella is experienced, but his running, pressing, and sprinting are not enough to satisfy Sampdoria's current attacking style."

"So he chose Hick."

"The approach is correct."

"But unfortunately..."

Spalletti shrugged slightly.

Even a clever housewife can't cook without rice.

"Nobody's here, nobody's here."

He stood up.

Turn the tactics board toward the assistant coach.

"As planned."

"The restrictions on Lin Qi remain unchanged."

"Hick, have the center-back cover the first ball."

"Don't let him comfortably turn his back."

"If he's just practicing standing meditation, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"The one in real danger is Lin Qi."

The teaching assistant asked:

"So, we'll take turns putting physical pressure on Lin Qi?"

"certainly."

Spalletti's voice was cold.

"And now is even more important to do so."

"Muriel is not here."

"Lin Qi has lost an important helper."

"If you make him uncomfortable, Sampdoria's attack will become very weak."

He paused for a moment.

His tone carried a hint of certainty.

"It seems even fate is on our side this time!"

"We have no reason not to win this match!"

Speaking of it.

Spalletti glanced in the direction of the door.

"What's more, the boss personally came with us to the away game."

"If we lose this opportunity too."

"Then it's not just about losing three points."

"It made the boss lose all face."

The teaching assistant's expression hardened.

"clear."

Spalletti looked down at the list again.

His gaze fell on the names Lin Qi and Hick.

It appeared out of nowhere.

A novice just starting out.

He tapped the table lightly.

"young people."

"Let them know tonight."

"Rome is not AC Milan."

……

at the same time.

VIP boxes at the stadium.

It's a completely different atmosphere.

Sampdoria owner Ferrero specially invited Roma owner Pallotta to watch the game together today.

The reasons are also quite valid.

Both men are successful businessmen in their respective countries.

He comes from the Italian film industry.

He comes from the American financial world.

Now they're all playing around in the Serie A circle again.

Since we've run into each other...

There's no reason not to take this opportunity to get to know each other better.

not to mention.

Ferrero knew this very well.

Rome is a big club.

Pallotta also has American resources behind him.

In the future, they may intersect in areas such as commercial development, broadcasting cooperation, overseas activities, and even player transactions.

of course.

the most important is……
