There is a belief called football

Chapter 147 Santos' Powerful Coercion
The referee blew the whistle, Santos kicked off first in the first half, and the fans burst into applause. This game is different from the previous game. The fans present can be said to be split [-]-[-], because Japanese football and Brazilian football are very good. There are also many Brazilians living in Japan, so there are also many Brazilian fans who come.

Neymar and Ganso in the frontcourt of Santos did not return the ball to the midfielder as usual after kick-off in the midfield. Instead, Neymar dribbled the ball and broke forward alone. At this time, Neymar really regarded himself as Pele.

But Neymar's speed is very fast, he easily broke through Guangzhou Tianbao's first line of defense Nei Konan, and then faced Brahimi.

Fighting for speed and physical strength, Prahimi did not lose to Neymar, but Neymar became famous much earlier than Brahimi, and was also selected for the Brazilian national team. Therefore, facing Prahimi, Neymar did not choose to force a breakthrough, but gave the ball to the right winger "Aloka", and then accelerated forward without the ball.

Brahimi knew that Neymar was going to play two against one, and he followed closely, but Brahimi's speed was not as fast as Neymar's without the ball.

Aloka saw that Neymar had thrown away Brahimi and returned the ball to Neymar, and there were only two central defenders of Guangzhou Tianbao left in front of him.

Gabriel, Jacob Sim didn’t dare to play in such a situation, because Santos’s left winger and right winger are also rushing in at high speed at the same time. If he goes up to grab Neymar, Neymar only needs to pass the ball behind him, then Isaacson will directly face the opponent’s player.

*****
Stan’s expression on the sidelines was stiff. He had thought of all the difficulties before the game, but obviously the difficulties in reality were beyond his imagination. The opponent didn’t seem to care about his team at all. This was like the mentality of the Brazilian national team when they played against the Chinese national team. Neymar played like he was training at the Santos training base, while the opponent’s head coach “Merrisi Ramalho” was chatting and laughing with the players on the bench. Obviously, they were already looking forward to their next opponent.

In fact, during the pre-match press conference, Santos' head coach "Merrisi Ramalho" confessed that he had never heard of Guangzhou Tianbao, nor had he watched an AFC Champions League match.

Of course, Maurice Ramalho is not arrogant, but the level of Asian football does not attract his attention for the time being. A coach usually has two purposes to pay attention to other teams-digging or learning, and Maurice Ramalho does not want to poach Asians and does not need to learn Asian football. Naturally, there is no need to pay attention to Asian football.

Seeing that the opponent's head coach didn't even have a tactical board, Stan felt slighted, and this was something Stan couldn't stand. He put two fingers in his mouth, whistled loudly at his players, and then gestured for Qi Bing, Taiwo to help defend.

*****
In fact, the current form is that the two wingers of Santos move forward at high speed around Neymar. He can pass the ball to anyone, or he can not pass the ball and break through by himself, which is also possible with his ability.

It may be that the opportunity came too easily. Neymar gave up all reasonable choices and volleyed directly from outside the penalty area. The ball drew an arc, but in the end he was hugged by Isaacson. This attack was not threatening.

*****
When Isaacson hugged the football firmly, Stan breathed a sigh of relief. The offensive fool just now could see that Santos had completely broken through Guangzhou Tianbao's defense, and the reason why he didn't concede the ball was because Neymar finally chose the most stupid way to deal with it.

This kind of ball is commonly known as "wave shot", which means shooting for the sake of shooting.

In the face of Neymar's "wave shot", the head coach "Merrisi Ramalho" not only did not get up and reprimanded, but applauded with the substitute players.

If it was in the Copa Libertadores, Neymar wasted opportunities like this, the head coach must have been anxious immediately, and called him over to reprimand him, and at this time he was facing a Chinese team, is he still afraid that Neymar will not score?It's okay to waste a few opportunities, just treat it as a performance.

Stan also understands this kind of emotion. Stan once led the team to face a low-level team in the FA Cup. To be honest, that kind of game is really drowsy and uninspiring. At this time, the opposing coach probably feels the same way.

Suddenly, Stan thought that he might be able to take advantage of the opponent's arrogance. As the saying goes, an arrogant soldier must lose, and perhaps the opponent's arrogance is a good thing for him. "Now let's make you look down on me for a while," Stan thought.

*****
Isaacson held the ball in his hands for six seconds, the longest a goalkeeper is allowed to hold the ball at one time, and it did so because Isaacson couldn't find a good spot to pass the ball at a glance.

The opponent's three lines are very high, and the players' pressing is very active. Isaacson feels that it is not appropriate to pass to anyone.

After 6 seconds, Isaacson threw the ball on the ground and still dribbled the ball with his feet without passing it. This is allowed by the rules, but it was not what the fans expected. The fans booed hugely and asked Isaacson to pass the ball quickly. Everyone wants to watch football games, not goalkeepers.

Seeing the situation, Jacob Shin had no choice but to run back. Isaacson saw Jacob Shin came back and immediately gave the ball to Jacob Shin, but as soon as Jacob Shin got the ball, Santos' left forward "Borges" and forward Neymar stuck up like ghosts.

Jacob Sim saw that it was not good, and returned the ball to the goalkeeper Isaacson.

The fans once again booed loudly, while the players on the Santos bench were snickering one by one, especially the head coach "Merrisi Ramalho".

He said to the assistant coach next to him: "Should we let the children relax a little bit? The Chinese team seems to be unable to pass the ball, let alone halftime, so the game cannot be played." After saying this, Maurice Ramalho laughed.

In fact, according to the strength of Guangzhou Tianbao, it is not so embarrassing, but it usually faces the "Asian rhythm", and now a "world rhythm" team suddenly comes, and it is very uncomfortable for a while.

Seeing that his defense line and midfield line were cut by the opponent, Prahimi gestured to Isaacson to give him the ball directly to the midfielder. Isaacson saw Brahimi’s gesture and sent a cross to Brahimi’s feet.

Prahimi could choose to pass the ball to his partner Nekonan, but he didn't do so. He straightened up and confronted the opponent's Enrique. Perhaps this was too unexpected. Enrique did not resist Prahimi and turned him around.

Brahimi didn't have time to raise his head, so he could only rely on his usual training feeling. He knew that Konka should be there, so he passed the ball instinctively, and the ball was passed to Konka's feet.

While watching the ball, Kongka felt the breath behind him. He knew that the opponent was coming again, and he could not stop the ball. As long as he stopped the ball, he would either be intercepted or kicked.

At this time, the instinctive passing that Stan usually required finally came in handy. In the league and in the AFC Champions League, if faced with such a situation, Conca's approach is to stop the ball, turn around, look up, and then pass the ball.

But now he could only use the instincts he had trained to feel where Li Qiao was. When the ball rolled to Kongka's feet, he passed it directly, and then turned around to see that it was almost on Li Qiao's side. He finally completed the task.

At this time, it was the later Brazilian international "Danilo" who marked Li Qiao. Danilo was very experienced. He tackled the ball on the passing line, that is, give me the ball. Otherwise, if you dare to stretch your foot to stop the ball, then I will shovel your ankle.

Faced with such a situation, people’s instinct is to hide, just like when someone throws a punch in front of you, you will instinctively close your eyes, and in the face of such an action on the football field, most people will also give in. Danilo is not trying to get a yellow card for a foul, but his experience tells him that it is no problem to do so.

Facing Danilo's defensive action, how can it be cracked?Stopping the ball will definitely not work, so what about passing the ball?[-]-[-] split, it is possible, but at such a moment, it is very difficult to avoid the opponent's tackle and pass the ball accurately.

In the face of such a situation in world football, there is one person who can be said to be seamless in dealing with it, and that is Zidane, and the trick he uses is Marseilles turning, pulling the ball, and then turning away quickly. When Zidane faced the opponent's fierce tackle during the Juventus period, he often passed the opponent like this.

Second-rate players play football with their brains, while first-rate players play football with instinct. They can always make the most appropriate moves on the court, such as Croatia's "Suker"'s iconic foot pull, and Zidane's movements. Those are not taught by the coach, but are used naturally on the court.

At this time, facing Danilo's fierce tackle, Li Qiao almost instinctively chose Marseille to turn. He pulled the ball lightly with his right foot, turned around, then stopped the ball with his left foot, and passed Danilo.

After seeing Li Qiao's extraordinary action, Santos' bench suddenly couldn't laugh. The head coach "Merrisi Ramalho" stood up for the first time and walked to the sidelines. Judging from his experience, he seemed to feel that this player was unusual.
