Chapter 79 Reading's Ghost Coach

When the head coach of the Reading team formulated the tactics for this game, he actually took into account the fact that Sheffield United also played twice in three days, and the physical fitness of the players of the two teams was similar.

Otherwise, he is not stupid, to compete with Sheffield United for his personal ability as a striker.

Sean Long is very strong, scoring 21 goals, currently ranked third in the league's top scorer list, and is also the biggest contributor to Reading's ability to enter the top six this season.

But it depends on who the opponent is.

Li Mo has scored 23 goals in 28 league games, which head coach of a Championship team dares to compare his striker with Li Mo!
However, Li Mo is still an individual after all, everyone has their physical limits, football is not like basketball, they can still be alive and well playing back to back.

In the football world, playing two games in three days, even the physical monsters like Essien and Beckham can't stand it, let alone a child who is only a few days away.

The physical talent that Li Mo showed before was very explosive, but physical fitness and confrontation ability are different, and the head coach of Reading team discovered a "flaw" in Li Mo when he was studying Sheffield United's game a few days ago .

physical fitness.

Compared with his strong physical fitness, Li Mo's physical fitness seems to be better than that of ordinary players.

Although it seems that Li Mo's runs are above the passing line in every game, his physical distribution is actually very "smart".

For example, when the Sheffield United team strengthens the frontcourt pressing, or when Li Mo needs to run a lot and drop back to catch the ball.

The head coach of the Reading team has found a problem. Li Mo can complete his tasks very well for a period of time, but he will also "slack off" in a later period.

Does that mean that Li Mo's physical fitness is actually just enough for him to finish the regular time in each game, but if Li Mo is allowed to take the ball frequently and attack the defense alone, his physical fitness is simply not enough to support him for the entire game in good shape?
This is a point that can be used!
After studying Li Mo's game video, the head coach of Reading felt that he had finally found a way to restrain Li Mo.

It's funny to say that Li Mo's physical fitness is actually very good at his age, but this is also used by Reading's coach to make a fuss. It can only be said that in the second half of the season, the head coaches of each Championship team Li Mo has been tortured very painful.

When the Reading team's coaching team finally formulated their tactics, they thought that they would pile up people in the midfield and try their best to consume Li Mo's physical energy. Only Sean Long was left as a fulcrum in the frontcourt. If there is a chance to counterattack, they will counterattack. If there is no chance to counterattack , just try to grind Li Mo to death.

Li Mo has no physical fitness, so he can play again when he is out of shape!

It's just that they didn't expect that Speed ​​also simply piled up people in the midfield. This shit is completely bus to bus.

But in this way, Sheffield United's offensive strength will also be greatly reduced. If it is a draw, it is not unacceptable for both sides to get one point each.

At least the head coach of Reading thinks so at the moment.

Swansea will face Sheffield United in the final round of the league. For Sheffield United, if they draw with their Reading team, they must do their best to win the final round. At that time, they will still be ranked fifth in Reading.

The Reading manager had a good idea, but Speed ​​had another idea.

"The opponent is so cowardly, let Jamie disrupt their defense in the first half, and let Li Mo attack with all his strength in the second half. If we can score a goal, we will stick to it. If they play defense with us, then play dead them!"

The old fritter Speed ​​immediately rubbed his chin to make adjustments, and asked the assistant coach to go to the sideline to tell the Sheffield United players on the side.

Li Mo's current physical condition Speed ​​and the coaching team are clear, if the opponent is using conventional tactics, Li Mo will have no problem at all, but if the opponent is determined to defend from the beginning, let Li Mo take the ball throughout the game It is unrealistic to attack the opponent's defense line.

So instead of letting Li Mo gnaw at the opponent's defense in the first half, it is better to let him paddle first, and then attack with all his strength in the second half. The probability of scoring is higher.

Shortly after the start of the game, Li Mo got a reminder from Matthew Lorton behind him, saying that the coach asked him to give the ball more to Vardy in the first half, let Vardy go for the main attack, and then attack the opponent's defense in the second half.

"Is this asking me to paddle?"

Li Mo was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the positions of the Reading players.

There are five people lined up in the midfield.

This hell, it really consumes energy to attack aggressively. If the opponent is determined to strangle the defense in the midfield, he will be double-teamed by many people whether he dribbles the ball in the middle or on the side.

"Okay, I understand."

Li Mo signaled to Matthew Lorton that he understood, and then he also took back his position.

This paddling is also a skill job. If you don’t do anything in the frontcourt, it’s too obvious. It’s better to move around appropriately. It’s relatively easy to retreat to help teammates in the middle and make the ball.

"It's just that Vardy is suffering for me, brother Jamie, you go first, and I will replace you in the second half."

Li Mo wished Vardy good luck in his heart, and then walked back slowly.

This scene gave the head coach of Reading a bad premonition.

Hey, you attack!What are you doing back home?If you don't attack us, how will we wear down your physical strength!

Reading's coaching staff looked at each other on the bench.

How is this different from the expected situation?

Li Mo withdrew to the center circle and used it as a fulcrum and transfer station to help out the ball in the middle and occasionally pass the ball forward to Vardy.

Why don't you play health balls here?

Just play like this, you won't have a physical crisis if you play three games in three days, okay?
The midfield defense of the Reading team is quite good. Vardy got the ball several times with great difficulty and was double-teamed to death. The rest of the pass was either intercepted or was behind him by the Reading team. His lower back was pushed back.

Sean Long of the Reading team was equally uncomfortable. It was okay to go to the right. The opposite left midfielder Matt Ridge was not as fit as him, and he could stumble and take a few steps with the ball.

If you go to the left, Matthew Lorton on the opposite side is too jerk, and you will fight him hand-to-hand when you come up, and there are three midfielders in the middle watching, so he can't do anything.

And the midfielders of the two teams were too lazy to press forward.

With only this little physical strength now, he would be out of breath after a few attacks, and it would be good to do a good job of defense, so there is no room for attacking forward.

The home and away fans in this game were quite depressed, but there was no way to make more demands on the team that played in the league two days ago, so they all had to cheer.

Until the end of the first half, the score was still 0-0. Speed ​​looked satisfied, but the head coach of Reading was a little irritable.

He didn't expect Speed ​​to let Li Mo retreat directly. Throughout the first half, Li Mo didn't attack with the ball or run without the ball. When the second half started, Li Mo would definitely attack.

But in this half, the middle players of the Reading team have been exhausted by Vardy. In the second half, can they really withstand Li Mo's full impact?
When the head coach of the Reading team was thinking about countermeasures, he saw Speed ​​happily pulling Li Mo and walking towards the locker room while talking. Li Mo also looked relaxed, his face There is no sense of fatigue at all.

This made his mood worse in an instant.

Damn it, co-authored him to study for so long before the game, did he study loneliness?
