Chapter 399
When Piacenza's players walked back to the locker room, the anger hadn't stopped for a long time. They scolded the opponent's shamelessness in the locker room and seemed quite angry.

"Hey, Cassia, that was really a man! Don't slump, we are ahead."

Flocari, who scored the penalty, hugged Cassia, who seemed a little sad because of his first red card in Serie A, as soon as he returned to the locker room. Obviously, he was very grateful to this partner for his strong move.

"Pfft, Sergio, do you think it's because of the red card?"

"Isn't it?"

"Haha, Sergio, you may not understand Cassia's previous style." Nainggolan on the side took up the conversation with a smile: "When he was with the reserve team last year, he got a lot of red cards."

"Then why do you seem so depressed, Cassia?"

"Because I haven't beaten those bastards yet!" Hearing Flocari's question, Cassia suddenly regained his spirits: "These brutal guys don't understand football at all, and playing with them will only hurt us, so we should teach them enough lessons!"

"That's right!"

"Casia, we support you!"

……

As Cassia's voice fell, the Piacenza locker room echoed. Obviously, the players were also very angry at Catania's bullshit kicking.

"Ahem! So you want another red card?"

When a cold swish sound came from the door of the locker room, the turmoil in the locker room subsided instantly. Cassia, who was still beaming and telling his teammates how he strangled his opponent's throat so hard that his face turned red, sat down.

That's right, it was Conte who walked back and chatted with Liu Feng who didn't return to the locker room immediately when he walked in the door.

When Conte walked into the room, Liu Feng also walked in. He glanced sympathetically at Cassia, who was sitting there restlessly. Although he agreed with his behavior in standing up for his teammates, it was obvious that their coach was about to lose his temper.

"Casia! Tell me, what are you thinking! Choke your throat? Do you know what kind of punishment you will face?"

A roar exploded in the dressing room, and Conte began his lecture.

When the locker room in Piacenza returned to calm again, the players did not escape any more, and everyone honestly looked at Conte who was standing next to the tactical board in front of him.

"It's not that I don't allow you to be hostile to your opponents. On the contrary, when I was on the sidelines, I also had the idea of ​​rushing up to strangle them, but I think there are more important things than this. Don't forget who our opponent is in the next game, and don't forget who the chasers behind us are."

Pulling the tactical board to his side, Conte quickly placed various icons on it: "If you want to be reduced to qualifying matches or even lose the Champions League qualification, then continue to fight with them. With a few more red cards, I think we can end this season early."

"No, coach, we don't want to do this!"

Cassia, who was scolded for a while, spoke first. Obviously, he also realized the consequences of his impulsiveness. According to the punishment of Serie A, he will never escape the punishment after the game. In the next few games, he can only sit and watch.

"If you don't want to do this, listen to me!"

Conte nodded and pointed to the tactical board next to him: "Feng will replace Sergio in the second half, because the team doctor has advised me not to let him continue the next game, so we will only leave one striker on the field."

"Padalino, you can step forward to help Feng at the right time, but I want to say that the most important thing for us in the second half is to defend, stop foolishly accepting the opponent's provocation, maintain a good attitude, and treat them as animals. We don't need to care about animals."

Quickly made his own adjustments clear, Conte arranged Piacenza's formation into 4131 in the second half. With a goal advantage, he did not want his players to face the opponent's dirty defense directly. Therefore, the second half tactic he set for the team was to spend time by possession of the ball and counterattack moderately.

As for this moderation, he had made it very clear on the way back to the locker room with Liu Feng, that is, in the face of any offensive defense by the opponent, Liu Feng has the right to give up the attack. His task is not to score goals, but to protect himself while harassing the opponent.

Soon, the players fully understood the head coach's arrangement, and at the same time, there was a knock on the locker room door.

As the two teams passed by each other in the player tunnel, the second half of the game was about to kick off.

"Okay, audience friends, welcome back to the game, let's continue to watch the second half of the match between Piacenza and Catania."

Liu Jianhong’s voice also sounded on the screen in time. He observed that the adjustments of the two teams quickly counted: “After losing a player, both teams have made adjustments. Catania replaced a full-back with a central defender. Change 432, Japanese teenager Kishin Morimoto and Giuseppe Mascara partnered as the team’s double striker.”

"Oh~, Piacenza's A Feng came on the field, and he replaced Flocari who seemed to be injured. Then, if I remember correctly, there is only one striker left in Piacenza, so Conte's tactics in the second half are likely to be defensive."

On the court, as the referee blew his whistle, the formations of the two teams quickly opened up, just as Liu Jianhong had guessed. Piacenza turned into a single forward formation, and they, who had the right to serve, immediately passed the ball to their backcourt and began to control the ball.

The Catania players rushed up quickly and continued to try to provoke, but after the intermission, the entire Piacenza team ignored them as if they had changed teams. Facing their high-position press, the Piacenza players simply treated them like monkeys and did not have much physical contact with their opponents.

In this way, the game became more organized. One of the two teams held the ball and defended, and the other team pressed the whole army. Finally, the smoothest and most normal 20 minutes after the start of the game was achieved.

Yes, it lasted just over 20 minutes.

In the 70th minute of the game, Catania double-teamed Liu Feng with three players. When two players shoveled towards him, Liu Feng decisively gave up the ball.

"Shit!"

When two self-inflicted defensive players were clutching different parts of their inner thighs and wailing on the ground at the same time, Catania's most provocative midfielder rushed towards Liu Feng directly cursing.
