Chapter 40 The style of Chu Zhongtian

The Lyons were still celebrating their goals, while Fernandez asked Carre to call captain Bobbyconi, Chu Zhongtian and Ribery to the sidelines to listen to his arrangements.

"Next we attack." Fernandez's first sentence shocked captain Bobby Coni - he still couldn't defend his full defense. If he attacked, how bad would he lose?

Ribery was very supportive of the head coach's decision. The team was defending the overall defense, and he was almost nothing in front, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Chu Zhongtian also hopes that the team will attack because he will not score the goal by blindly defending. He has already competed with Juninho, and now he is competing with Diyala, Essin and others.

"Chu, don't defend Juninho anymore. You will be mainly responsible for organizing the offense next time. Be careful of Diyala, he is a very outstanding midfielder."

Chu Zhongtian nodded and said that he knew.

※※※ After the Lyon players celebrated the goal, they ran towards their half. Essin and Diyala were praising their captain: "That kid still can't defend you!"

Juninho shook his head, "Thirty gives me the feeling that there are some places that he looks very much like you, Michael."

Essin was a little surprised: "Like me? Where?"

"Physical quality and fighting spirit." Juninho said. "It's just that I'm inexperienced and very immature." Juninho's comment on Messe's No. 30 was unexpected by both Essin and Diarra.

In fact, Essin is only one and a half years older than Chu Zhongtian, but Essin has been systematically trained and participated in many professional competitions, so he is much richer than Chu Zhongtian in terms of experience. The thirty-year-old Juninho is quite accurate in this regard.

At this point, Essin believed in Juninho.

He turned his head to find Chu Zhongtian. He saw his target standing on the sidelines, and the head coach pulled him and said something.

Diala was a little distracted. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see that the boy had anything similar to Essin. In terms of physical fitness, Lyon was second, Essin was first. That boy was not a black man, but just a yellow man. How could he be better than Essin in physical fitness than himself?

He was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't show it. He was just thinking - he had the opportunity to verify it himself!

He quickly got that opportunity.

When the game started again, Juninho found that Chu Zhongtian was no longer defending himself, and the task of defending himself was handed over to Proman. At first, he was a little at a loss - where did Metz's No. 30 go?

He looked back and found that Chu Zhongtian was actually closer to Diyala!

What signal is this? Metz is going to attack?

Even Juninho, who has experienced many battles, finds this idea a bit incredible - this is at the Gerland Stadium, Lyon's home court, with a team of Metz's level, is not satisfied with the 1:1 score and wants to attack?

※※Although Chu Zhongtian’s next task is mainly offense, it does not mean that he does not participate in defense at all. The head coach did not arrange this, and he personally would not do so.

When Promune goes to defend Juninho, he will also withdraw to assist in the defense.

Sometimes he even went up with Proman and grabbed Juninho. If he could cut the ball and turned around, he would fight back.

When Metz attacked, his position was not limited to the middle or midfielder. Thanks to his super physical fitness, he could run in time at any corner of the court to serve as a supporter for his teammates. At the same time, he also took the initiative to ask for the ball and took on a completely different role before.

However, he is not unfamiliar with such a role. He played like this many times in the previous month's games. Even He Ping, who had commented on his several games, was not surprised.

Chu Zhongtian is not the kind of player who only handles the ball in one area. Modern football is increasingly disliked players who only specialize in one ability. Their positional ability is limited and they are gradually no longer popular in today's football world. In the future, all-round players are all-round players. As a midfielder, you must be able to attack, as a striker, and as a central defender, you must be able to dribble the ball and penetrate the opponent's hinterland when necessary... Even the goalkeeper is almost a scavenger. As a modern player, it will become more and more normal for one-time multi-tasking.

"Foundsman" David Beckham transferred to Real Madrid. He originally only played on the right forward and had to change to play as a midfielder in order to play, using his long pass to launch an attack.

However, his activity attracted someone's attention for him... Chu Zhongtian received the ball from his teammate Oblaniak. When he was about to move forward, he suddenly felt that his center of gravity was lost and he fell to the ground. The football was naturally lost.

Lying on the ground, he only saw a dark thigh. When he turned over, he realized that the person who fouled him was Mahamadu Diyala!

The referee blew a foul on Diarra and gave Metz a free kick, which was taken by Oblaniac, but the French national youth team player's free kick skills were far worse than Juninho. The free kick he kicked didn't even pass the wall.

The ball that bounced back happened to fall at Chu Zhongtian's feet. He stopped the ball and Diyala rushed up fiercely. He had no time to adjust, and his teammates were not in good position, so he simply swung his feet and shot from a long time!

The football flew towards the goal like a cannonball, with great strength, but it went out of the goal and hit the billboard next to the goal, making a muffled sound.

The corner kick missed, and did not pose any threat to Lyon's goal, but Juninho narrowed his eyes with interest - exerting force on the spot, not running, and his upper body didn't even move. It was all thanks to the strength of a right leg, and he could shoot such a powerful and fast ball. If it weren't for the missed shot, it was hard to say whether Kupe could react... Even Diarra didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to kick the ball in place. As soon as he made a reflex, the football flew over from his face.

A few minutes later, Metz goalkeeper Winbi kicked the ball, and the football flew directly to the near-center circle. Chu Zhongtian and Diyala competed to head the ball. Diyala was 1.83 meters tall, and Chu Zhongtian was also 1.83 meters tall. It can be said that the two people are exactly the same in height. There is no situation where anyone takes advantage of it and who suffers.

Chu Zhongtian jumped on the spot, while Diyala jumped. In the bounce, Diyala had the advantage, but the person who won the final victory was Chu Zhongtian. Because he had a more accurate judgment on the landing point and the timing of the kickoff, he pushed the football away before Diyala. Diyala rushed up and could only knock Chu Zhongtian to the ground, which was another foul.

Diyala didn't care about this foul. He felt from the two physical confrontations with Chu Zhongtian that Chu Zhongtian definitely did not have the physical fitness of Essin. If Juninho was either exaggerating, he would have seen it.

"This kid is nothing great." He shrugged and shook his head at his African fellow villager Essin.

※※※Chu Zhongtian devoted more experience to offense, and Metz's defense was weaker than in the first half. Lyon seized the opportunity of Metz to make adjustments, lure Metz out, and then used the speed of both sides to counterattack. Both Maluda and Gowu are fast players who are good at dribbling.

Finally in the 69th minute, Gowu passed Obraniak after receiving the ball from the side. Instead of continuing to dribble the ball forward, he directly drove the ball towards the other end of the court with his big feet. Maluda, who was unmarked there, easily licked the ball forward with his chest, and then raised his foot to knock the ball forward, speeding up the ball to break through!

Metz's full-back here is Samuel Arigoro. Lyon's offensive was on the left side just now, so he had already reached the middle. When Lyon transferred the ball to his side so quickly, he had to run the side from the middle, so that Maluda was almost unmarked.

When he felt the wing, Maluda made a decisive cross again.

After Metz's defense was moved by Lyon, he was completely confused. Frau, who was in the middle, jumped and headed off the goal without anyone defending.

Winby was powerless to do anything about such a header, so she could only watch Frau send the football into the net.

The fans cheered again at the Gerland Stadium.

Lyon took the lead 2:1 at home!

Lyon played very quickly in this attack, and the starting point was Juninho. Whether it was him or Govu, Maluda, and Frau who participated in the attack later, each handled the ball cleanly and neatly without dragging it out. So much so that Chu Zhongtian ran back and participated in the defense when the opponent started the attack. When Frau scored the ball, he had just run to the top of the free throw arc.

It can only be verified to watch Froe push the ball into the goal guarded by Winby.

He hugged his head in disappointment and pulled his hair - this is the disadvantage of offense... But can we always hide in the second half in order to avoid such conceding goals, and dare not attack with fear?

Obviously not.

Since you have lost the ball now, you can only attack harder. Anyway, losing one ball is losing, and losing two balls is also losing!

※※My goal concealed did not change Metz's tactics. Instead, Fernandez came to the sidelines to ask the players to attack more resolutely.

Chu Zhongtian is physically strong and does not hesitate to shuttle back and forth in the game at all costs. However, he rarely drives the ball, and he cuts the ball in an empty position without the ball. He always passes it as soon as possible after he gets the ball. He knows that he is not good at dribbling the ball for a long time will definitely attract the opponent's press. It is obviously not his specialty to control the football by himself. He likes simpler methods - observe the positions of his teammates and opponents in advance, and then send the ball to the place he had planned in advance after receiving the ball. After passing the ball, he continues to run to the next position, receives the teammates, and continues to pass the ball. He does not stand somewhere, and only relies on passing the ball to complete the task of organizing the offense. His "passing and running position" type, using his own running and passing to connect the three front, middle and back lines.

If pearls are used to describe his teammates, then he is the thin line that pierced the pearls. Without his connection, the beautiful pearls are scattered on the ground in a mess, looking messy, and may even fall into mud and lose their original luster. With his running and passing, the team can shine with dazzling light like a pearl necklace.

Because of his playing characteristics, Diarra was very depressed. At first, Diarra wanted to use his method against Juninho to deal with him, so that he could also taste the taste of being pressed close to him. Later, after doing it a few times, he found that he could not do this, because Chu Zhongtian's position was simply chaotic and irregular. He might appear in any corner of the court. If he followed Chu Zhongtian everywhere, Lyon's midfield defense would be useless... At that time, the active Ribery leaned into the middle and could face the back line directly.

Later, Diyala let Chu Zhongtian run around.

Anyway, run, you always go back to the middle, boy.

If it is in the eyes of ordinary people, Chu Zhongtian's running looks disorganized and seems to have no effect at all. He just keeps running, catches the ball and passes the ball. Such a simple job is usually done by most people. The Metz team has done this several attacks. He did not pass the deadly first pass like the first half, nor does he play many wonderful passes full of imagination and viewing. He just sat on the simplest and most basic passes, and even the outer instep passes are rarely, most of which are passing the inner instep or the arch of the foot. This makes many people think that he is completely running and passing without any sense, and it is nothing great.

Even the commentator of French TV station felt that Chu Zhongtian's wonderful performance was only the assists Ribery in the first half, and there was nothing to praise at other times. He looked like an ordinary midfielder, and it was obvious that Metz gave him all the offensive organization work, because if everyone had the ball, they would always give priority to passing it to him.

But only Metz's coaches know that such running and passing are something that tests a midfielder's ability to read the game on offense. It seems that his running is very average, but if someone carefully studies it after the game, he will find that his running route is very particular, and he always tries to form a triangle with his teammates and any teammate, so his teammate's pass can be easily passed to him, and he can also quickly pass the ball to the next target teammate without catching the ball.

Later, I found that the position was not good and needed to adjust the dribble before passing the ball. At that time, the best time was often lost, and I could only pass the ball for the sake of passing. Now he can continue to run to the next position after passing the ball. If his teammate decides to come by himself, he will support him. If his teammate finds that it is very difficult for him to come, or originally wanted to pass it to teammate B, but there are two opponents between him, then he can hand the ball back to him, and then he can serve as the relay point to pass the ball to teammate B.

After this cycle, he connected all the teammates involved in the offense on the field.

And such a running position was something he didn't have in the first game at Wimbledon, or even in the first half of the season at Mays.

Today's performance is the result of coach Tadio's analysis of the game video with him after each game.

At first, he was not used to such a running position. Later, after constantly paying attention in training and competitions, he was slowly training it into his instinct - no need to observe, no need to think about it, and naturally run out of the triangle position.

Many years later, the FIFA technical committee used Chu Zhongtian's running and passing positions in a game as an example, and told young players and football enthusiasts how to make the smartest and most efficient running and passing passes in the game. In the video, the technical committee freezes the game, and then marks Chu Zhongtian's running and passing routes with solid and dotted lines. Everyone can clearly see that with him as the center, the passing trajectory is used as the sideline, and there are always obvious triangles between him and his teammates. Sometimes it is one, and sometimes it has as many as nine triangles of different sizes, angles and levels. Then when he passes the ball and runs to the next point, the triangle appears again. Of course, this is also inseparable from his teammates.

At that time, Chu Zhongtian's passing organization and running position in the midfield had reached an ever-increasing level, which was quite like a "great success of magical skills". Now facing Lyon at the Gerland Stadium, he is still a young boy who is a fledgling boy. His running position and passing seem awkward. Sometimes the intention of passing is too obvious and will be cut off, which will make him give up his intention of passing and drive the ball and run back, making adjustments.

In short, when he doesn't find a good opportunity, he will not risk passing a straight pass. Although the straight pass is very ornamental and fatal, it is also very risky. If the pass is done, he will take the opponent's life, but if he cannot pass it well, he will take his own life in turn.

As a midfield commander, taking risks or conservatism is a choice he must make every moment. The first second is a good time to take risks, but if you delay a little, making a risky pass or break through the next second may become an action that makes you regret it.

When the game reached the 80th minute, Metz still did not score. As long as Metz attacked, Chu Zhongtian kept running and looking for pass opportunities. But Lyon's defense line was very tightly organized, so a good offensive opportunity could appear easily?

He Ping couldn't understand Chu Zhongtian's approach, but just sighed: "Chu Zhongtian worked very hard, but Mes could not find a better offensive method, and Ribery was also trapped in the opponent's siege. At this time, they needed the cooperation of their teammates, and they also needed teammates with outstanding personal abilities to share Ribery's pressure."

Over time, Lyon did not want to finish the game with a score of 2:1. Metz's goal was an offense to them, so they had to retaliate with more goals.

Before entering the last ten minutes of the game, Chu Zhongtian stayed behind to defend more often, and even Ribery had to come back to participate in the defense.

There were a few times, Lyon even completely suppressed Metz's offensive and pushed Metz back to the 30-meter area. It seemed that at the end of the final game, it should be thankful to God that Metz could maintain this score.
Chapter completed!
