Chapter 153 Left-handed metaphysics and right-handed science
Taishan team and Shanghai SIPG team have similar schedules. They both just played in the AFC Champions League in the middle of the week. There is not much difference in physical fitness;In the lineups of both sides, you have Hulk, I have Pellet; you have Oscar, I have Fellaini; you have Arnautovic, and I have Gil.

No matter how you look at it, they are evenly matched.

However, the SIPG team has the advantages of timing, location, and people at home.

On the scale of perfect balance, a slight increase in advantage will tip the scale of victory.

At the pre-match tactical preparation meeting, Gao Yuan proposed an unexpected combat plan: Xuezang Pellet, who performed very well in the AFC Champions League, and used the fourth foreign aid Gerdes.

Everyone was very surprised and didn't understand why he had such a suggestion.

Gao Yuan explained:
First, the overall strength of the Shanghai SIPG team is stronger. They will definitely play offensive football at home, and we can only play defensive counterattacks.Pellet belongs to the bridgehead and is a big killer in the penalty area, but he is not good at long-distance raids and cruising around to respond, and this is precisely Guedes' advantage;
Second, using Gerdes can surprise the opponent tactically and catch the opponent by surprise;
Third, Guedes' recent training state is very good, and he has a strong desire to fight. He should be reused while his barrel is hot, otherwise not only the state cannot be maintained, but the players' hearts may also be chilled;
Fourth, Pellet is already very tired after fighting continuously, his state cannot be guaranteed, and there may be a risk of injury.

The first and second points are lofty analysis and judgment, but the third and fourth points are real.

According to Gao Yuan's systematic observation, Guedes's state has been red and purple in the past two days, but Pellet's state has gradually turned green from the red in the previous game. I don't know whether it is because he is getting older and his physical fitness is recovering slowly, or he has "extra training" with his supermodel wife Varga at night. In short, his physical fitness is only about 70%.

Gao Yuan's analysis is clear and logical, but it sounds sensational to others.In such a crucial battle, if the main center is not used, but the fourth foreign aid is used instead, the entire tactical play will have to be changed. This is too radical.

To put it nicely, this is called deceitful tactics; to put it bluntly, it's nonsense!

Sure enough, Hao Wei was the first to raise objections: "Guedes' recent training is in good condition, but Pellet is also very good. He scored two goals in the last game. He is in good condition. How do you say that his physical fitness and condition are not good?"

Of course, Gao Yuan can't say that Lao Tzu has a system and knows people by looking at them.But he was also prepared, and took out another data monitoring report.

This is the monitoring data of the GPSports system. Pellet's blood oxygen content, heart rate after exercise, aerobic load and other indicators are significantly different from before.This report suggests that Pellet's body is not at its best.

"According to the analysis of the monitoring system, if Pellet is used excessively, not only the exercise state cannot be guaranteed, but also there will be a risk of injury." Gao Yuan strikes while the iron is hot.

Everyone was silent. They could disbelieve Gao Yuan's judgment, but they had to believe in science. No one could risk the health of the players, let alone the "thigh-level" foreign aid Pellet who might be injured!
For the sake of the team's future, let's be Pellet's leg hair honestly!

Gao Yuan laughed secretly in his heart, sure enough, once the data comes out, you will be overwhelmed.Lao Tzu not only understands metaphysics, but also has an FM system; he also knows science, masters the GPSports system, and his own judgments are no longer groundless, they are all based on science!

Now I have two major systems by my side, left-handed metaphysics, right-handed science, and both metaphysics and science are blessed, let me ask you if you are afraid!

"However, such an important game..." Hao Wei said half of the sentence and didn't go any further, but the meaning was self-evident, and he was still worried.

Li Xiaopeng has the final decision-making power. He is the talker of the team. Any difficult decision must be made by him, and no matter what consequences arise, he must bear it.

Li Xiaopeng thought for a moment, then made up his mind: "Just do what Xiao Gao said!"

Half an hour before the game, when the list of matches came out, there was an immediate uproar.

In such an important game, the Taishan team did not play Pellet!
You must know that Pellet's significance to the Taishan team is far more than just a big-name striker. He represents a tactical style of play. He is the beacon of offense.

Pellet can't play, is this game going to change tactics?

Fans in the forum posted a lot of discussion.

"Why don't you go to Grand Pellet?"

"Is he injured? But I never heard that he was injured!"

"In the last game, I was in such a good state, but I was not allowed to play this time. I am so embarrassed."

"Prefect Li is messing around again, wait for you to lose, and prefect Li dismisses get out of class!"

······
As the battle of Tianwangshan in the Chinese Super League, this game will be broadcast live globally.

As soon as the game started, PPTV commentator Miao Lin first introduced the starting lineups of both sides.

After introducing the lineup, Miao Lin emphatically emphasized that the forward of the Taishan team is not Pellet, but the young Brazilian teenager Guedes.

"Guedes is good at his feet skills, and his handling of high-altitude balls is much worse than that of Pellet. I don't know if the Taishan team's formation is a helpless move due to objective factors, or is it a deliberate initiative? Let us wait and see how the effect will be."

As Gao Yuan expected, SIPG swung three axes as soon as they came up, posing as if they wanted to eat the Taishan team.

The attacking trident composed of "Hammer" Arnautovic, former Chelsea core Oscar, and "Invincible Hulk" Hulk was very active after the opening.

Especially Hulk, the giant-butt striker whose butt is second only to Kardashian is extremely lethal. Relying on his steel and iron body, he rampages on the court.

However, the Taishan team had already been prepared and sent young general Liu Junshuai to guard Hulk closely.

Liu Junshuai is a typical Ludong burly man. He is tall and strong, with a strong physique and a loyal personality.

Not afraid of death, not afraid of tiredness, daring to fight, it is most suitable to deal with a forward like Hulk who relies on his body for food.

After the opening scene, Hulk was tightly entangled. The two of them were playing professional wrestling on the court. They bumped into each other and entangled desperately.

Hulk is pinched at this point, and SIPG's offensive threat is reduced by half.

In the penalty area, Anautovic was even more helpless in the face of Dajill's defense. Jill had the upper hand in several confrontations.

Of the three major foreign players, two were entangled, leaving only one Oscar. Although he is extremely talented and skilled, he is good at organizing the midfield and threading needles. He cannot directly pose a threat to the Taishan team's goal.

Therefore, the Shanghai SIPG team seemed to be very busy at the beginning, but the effect was not ideal.

Hulk is even more temperamental. This big-ass striker who divorced his wife and married his ex-wife and niece, has his own way of doing things and has a very unique style of play. He likes to play alone with the ball.If you play well, you can score any goal, the level of the main striker of the Brazilian national team;

No, he didn't take advantage of the confrontation a few times, and he became more and more anxious.The more difficult the game is, the more I have to do it alone, I don't cooperate with my teammates, and I don't care about any tactical routines. I just break through when I get the ball, and shoot when I have an opening.

This is exactly what the Taishan team is happy to see. This kind of ball is not a threat at all, but it gives the Taishan team a chance to counterattack.

In the 10th minute of the game, Hulk shot again unreasonably from the midfield, but the goalkeeper Wang Dalei easily confiscated the ball.

This was originally an offensive opportunity for the SIPG team. Most of the players pressed forward, and the defense line was empty.Wang Dalei judged the situation and made preparations a long time ago. When he received the ball, he saw the opening, took a few steps, and threw it towards the opponent's half court with all his strength.

Wang Dalei is the number one "unicorn arm" in the Chinese Super League, and his throws are accurate and far.This time, he was in good condition, with the waist and horse in one, kicking the legs, twisting the waist, sending the shoulders, pushing the elbows, a series of force movements were done in one go, and the ball flew directly across the half court under the urging of huge force, and flew to the feet of striker Guedes.

At this moment, SIPG's rear was empty, and they never expected Taishan's counterattack to come so quickly.Central defender Shi Ke rushed over to intercept, but Guedes was skilled. He swayed the defense with one touch and one dunk, and dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area.

The SIPG goalkeeper Yan Junling saw the situation was not good and attacked the ball, but before he could reach the ball, Gerdes took a shot. The ball drew an arc, bypassed Yan Junling, and flew into the net.

0:1, the Taishan team completed a perfect blitz only relying on the direct connection between the goalkeeper and the striker.

The commentator Miao Lin was also affected by this wonderful goal, and improvised a paragraph of storytelling: "Wang Dalei urged the unicorn arm, and Guedes slammed his sword to seal his throat! But a young general in white robes came out of Mount Tai's formation. His face was like jade, his body was like a pine tree, he was as graceful as a frightened bird, and he was like a swimming dragon! Like a demon descended from the sky, he is the Tai Sui God in the world!"

Faced with such a classic counterattack, even the SIPG fans at home had to sigh "really awesome".

The ultimate goal of a football game is to send the ball into the opponent's goal. Complex tactics, exquisite coordination, and dazzling passing and cutting moves are all for this purpose.But sometimes, football really doesn’t need to be too complicated. For example, this goal only needs a direct connection between the goalkeeper and the striker to simplify the complexity and complete the goal.

Therefore, there is no perfect tactic in this world, as long as it can send the ball into the goal, it is a good tactic.

Li Xiaopeng and Gao Yuan even applauded for this goal, raising their arms and shouting.They won the bet, no matter what the trend of the game or the score is, as long as such a beautiful goal is scored, no one can blame why Pellet was replaced with Guedes.

In the next game, the lagging SIPG team played even more impatiently. Hulk ran on the field like a headless chicken with his big butt; Anautovic was floating alone in the Tarzan team's penalty area like a kite with a broken string;

The 0:1 score was maintained until the end of the first half.

The turbulent second half is about to start.
