Chapter 228 Luck Tactics

Although Paris Saint-Germain coach Halilozić did not do well in some aspects, he was still very dignified in the team's locker room. At least, all the players in the team respected this white-haired old man.

Therefore, every task he assigned would be carried out seriously by the players. For example, the temporary change of formation in the first half. Even an experienced player like Pauleta felt something was wrong, but he still followed the coach's wishes.

Now, the team is two goals behind at the Parc des Princes, and everyone in the locker room is counting on this white-haired old man to come up with a good strategy - even though their results this season are really terrible, these players still believe in Halilozzi. Maybe this is the personal charm of this Bosnian.

In the home team's locker room.

"After the first half, I have a good understanding of Chelsea's offense." Halilozzi said calmly: "The biggest reason why the opponent can score 4 or 5 goals per game this season is the young No. 21. His offensive ability is very strong. So I asked to defend this player in the second half."

"Mendy, are you okay?"

Hearing the coach call his name, Mendy immediately looked up, with a somewhat anxious look on his face, and said: "Sir, I want to try again in the second half. With the experience of the first half, even if I can't defend him next time, I will never let him get past me easily again."

Halilozzi carefully looked at Mendy's face, and after a while, he nodded. He decided to believe what the French international said. In fact, in Paris Saint-Germain, Mendy is an ironclad defender. Even if he finds someone to replace him, Halilozzi has no suitable candidate in mind. In terms of bench depth, the gap between the team and the giants is too big.

However, the Bosnian decided to increase the defensive chips, "Mbami, you have to do defense in the second half. As long as the number 21 passes the half, you follow him like Mendy."

"...On defense, focus all your energy on the No. 21 kid. As for the other offensive players, you can ignore them appropriately. Now that the team is two goals behind, we can only gamble on our luck."

"... In the second half, we still have to attack aggressively. It will be difficult for the opponent to defend our attack. As long as the team can score a goal at the beginning, the game will be much easier. Chelsea will definitely attack again if they cannot guarantee victory, and that will be our chance."

"...Mendy, I'm still a little worried about your defense. Remember, don't be afraid of big moves. Don't let that black-haired kid break through at will. As long as you can defend him, Chelsea's counterattack ability will not be too strong. Besides, they don't have an accurate free kick shooter."

"Don't worry, sir." Mendy said with a firm expression.

Although Halilozic said a lot during the half-time break, in fact the Bosnian's tactics were very simple, which was to guard the opponent's core offensive players, play with fewer players and attack in a large-scale manner.

Perhaps, this offensive method will make many people feel irrational, but it is the most correct choice. You must know that in the entire football game, half of the victory or defeat depends on strength, and the other half is luck.

Yes, Haliloziqi is betting on luck.

Even so, the probability of winning is still very small, but for Paris Saint-Germain, having a chance to win now is already very good. How can they ask for more?

In the second half, Chelsea still used Mourinho's '1:0 second half tactics' - defensive counterattack.

Chelsea did not make any substitutions, Mourinho just told Joe Cole to move his position slightly forward, so that Lampard would play in Joe Cole's position and Duff would become the center forward. With a simple change in formation, Chelsea's formation immediately turned into their best 433, three defensive midfielders all attacking and defending formation.

With a luxurious all-star lineup, this formation was used while still playing defensive counterattacks. It has to be said that Mr. Mourinho is very good at utilizing his own advantages, and he doesn't care about the situation on the field at all, he only cares about the final result.

As a result, after the start of the second half, in the eyes of the fans in the stands, Paris Saint-Germain once again took a great advantage on the field. Their attack made Chelsea "unable to fight back", but this situation only lasted for a few minutes.

After that, Chelsea let everyone realize that their counterattack was just as sharp.

Taking advantage of an opportunity to steal the ball in the backcourt, Duff, Lampard and Makelele made several steady passes, keeping the ball firmly under Chelsea's control. The ball was then given to Wang Li near the midfield.

After Wang Li got the ball, facing the double-team of Mendy and Mbami, he pulled the ball back and protected it behind him, then tapped it hard with his heel, and the ball rolled quickly to the feet of Gudjohnsen in the middle.

Gudjohnsen and Joe Cole made several passes on the left, and finally in the penalty area, Joe Cole made a low shot that hit the frame and flew out of the bottom line, almost resulting in a goal.

From Paris Saint-Germain's massive attack, to the change of ball possession, to Chelsea's quick counterattack, the second half of the game generally developed in this form. Overall, Chelsea still had the advantage.

In these 20 minutes, Chelsea had 7 shots, including 6 threatening shots. On the other hand, although Paris Saint-Germain had an advantage in ball possession and number of shots, due to Chelsea's tight defense, most of their shots did not have good chances. Of their 11 shots, only one entered the goal frame and was easily caught by the goalkeeper.

During this period, Wang Li felt that it was much more difficult than in the first half. The close defense of the two opposing defensive players throughout the court made it impossible for him to display his skills. It was very difficult for him to successfully receive the ball. Moreover, every time he received the pass and wanted to quickly counterattack and break through with the ball, the little guy next to him would harass him in every possible way.

Yes, they use every possible means - pulling, bumping, small moves, and if that doesn't work, just tackle the ball

For Mendy, the almost ignoring attack of the black-haired boy next to him made him feel very humiliated, and now, he must not let this humiliation continue. Even if his true strength could not be defended, he could not let the opponent act so recklessly, so he adopted a foul tactic.

Mendy's tricks were all very secretive, mostly sneak attacks in the blind spot of the referee's sight, so until now, he has only received a warning. As for Wang Li, with his exquisite footwork, he is not afraid of real tackles, but sometimes, when his jersey is pulled near the midline, or when he is double-teamed by two people, he has no way to do anything. Even if these are discovered by the referee, most of them are just a warning.

Mendy's defense, coupled with Mbami's harassment next to him, also made it difficult for Wang Li to participate in the team's quick counterattack.

Judging from the score, Halilozic's tactics in the second half were half successful. Chelsea's counterattack was indeed powerful, but it did not result in a goal due to bad luck. Of course, under the suppression of Chelsea's strong defensive ability, Paris Saint-Germain had no good opportunities at all and did not score any goals.

However, this kind of game is difficult to continue for too long. Chelsea's luck cannot be so bad every time, and Chelsea's defense cannot be flawless. Moreover, there is a variable in the game---

As the game time passed, Wang Li's anger continued to rise.

………

In the 71st minute of the game, Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Eduardo Cisse made a straight pass from the wing to Coryton in front of the penalty area. After receiving the ball, Coryton suddenly changed direction to the left, shook off the defender, swung his right foot and wanted to shoot directly. The position of the ball was quite threatening, so Makelele next to him made a fierce tackle and knocked the former to the ground.

Referee Nelson ran over, took out the yellow card directly, and awarded Paris Saint-Germain a free kick in a very good position.

Forward Pauleta stood firmly in front of the ball. The Portuguese veteran is undoubtedly the team's first free kick taker. His free kicks are often very sophisticated and his goal efficiency is very high. Although he can't catch up with David Beckham's Beckham curve, his goal efficiency is also extremely high.

Run-up, Shooting

It was a very simple method, but it resulted in a goal.

Faced with a shot that went straight into the blind corner of the goal, Cech was helpless. He jumped with all his strength but still failed to catch it.

At this point, Mr. Halilozhi's luck tactics finally achieved initial results. The Paris Saint-Germain fans in the stands finally saw the team's hope of equalizing the score. They unscrupulously vented the boredom that had been suppressed in their hearts throughout the game, and cheers one after another filled the entire Parc des Princes.

Room 1139, a luxury hotel, rue des Roissy, Paris.

At this time, two fashionable European women were sitting on the sofa and laughing, watching the live broadcast in front of them. The French text displayed in the upper right corner of the screen was "Paris Saint-Germain 1:2 Chelsea".

"Nelly, the other team scored a goal, why didn't Alan Wang show any performance?" On the right side of the sofa, Kayla, who was only wearing a tight shirt, frowned slightly and opened her mouth to speak.

"Who knows, maybe he's not in good shape," Furtado replied.

Kayla stretched her arms and stretched out her lustful body, then squinted her eyes and stared at the TV screen, saying, "I don't know what's the point of so many men kicking a ball around. Nellie, do you like watching this?"

"I didn't like it before, but since I met Wayne, I occasionally watch Chelsea's games." As Furtado said this, her face was slightly flushed, full of happiness.

"Hehe, have you really fallen in love with that playboy? You better be careful."

"You're still blaming me. I don't know who was watching the game just now, but he kept talking about Allen and Allen, and didn't care about anyone else at all." Futado retorted sarcastically.

"Because I only know that black-haired boy. Are you so generous as to let me pay attention to Wayne? You know, yesterday I let a strange man get in my car for the first time for you."

“By the way, have you had any further developments?” Futado asked with interest.

"I should be the one asking you this." Kayla showed a cunning smile on her face and continued with her mouth opened: "Two hours, well, it's plenty of time, enough to do something else."

"screw you."

“…Did I get it right?”
