There is a belief called football

Chapter 158 Stan is not easy to bully
The referee Nishimura Yuichi is also an experienced referee. Gradually, he clearly felt that Guangzhou Tianbao's movements on the field were getting bigger and bigger.

In fact, professional players are very smart. They will test the referee's bottom line. If the referee's penalty is looser, the players will become more and more presumptuous.

Therefore, a good referee must detect and control the situation in time before the situation gets out of control. Yuichi Nishimura knows that Guangzhou Tianbao’s Nei Ke Nan is not a thing. Of course, this refers to the style on the court. Ne Ke Nan’s hot temper is famous in Asia.

He is now staring at Nei Kenan, ready to wait for Nei Kenan to give him a yellow card as soon as he makes a bigger move next time, as a warning to everyone else.

However, Nei Kenan was very "good" except for the first time he violated Harvey, but it was Li Qiao who fouled.

In fact, the players in professional clubs are together every day. What needs to be communicated, a look is enough. Nei Kenan knows that he is a "stab" in the eyes of the referee, so he tries not to stand out and let other teammates stand out. After his teammates "offend", he immediately stands up and uses the privilege of the captain (according to the rules, only the captain can argue with the referee on the court) to argue with the referee.

Because the kick was both smart and rough, Guangzhou Tianbao not only did not give Barcelona any chance within 10 minutes, but the team has not received a yellow card.

Guardiola saw Guangzhou Tianbao's plan at a glance. There are many teams that have faced Barcelona like this in La Liga, but today Guangzhou Tianbao is smarter.

Faced with this situation, Guardiola was going to find the fourth official to protest. Stan on one side also knew what Guardiola was going to do, so he also went to find the fourth official.

Maybe it was because of his impatience. Guardiola put his hand on the shoulder of the fourth official. Europeans may be very accustomed to physical contact, especially the Spaniards, but today the fourth official is Japanese. Asians are not used to physical contact when facing unfamiliar people.

All this was seen by the sharp-eyed Stan. He was about to magnify this trivial matter. Stan waved his hands again and again, with an exaggerated expression, and pushed Guardiola.

Guardiola was inexplicably pushed, and was also stunned, but another "stab" on the Barcelona bench, Mascherano, was furious when he saw Stan pushing his head coach, and he rushed to Stan.

This was exactly what he wanted. Stan originally wanted to "make trouble".

Stan straightens up, meaning, "Hit me if you can".

But Guardiola stopped Mascherano in time, and the fourth official also came out to persuade the fight. Stan saw that the fight was not going to happen, so he had an idea and changed to yelling until he alarmed the big brother on the scene.
After such a fuss, the referee Nishimura Yuichi also noticed the abnormality on the sidelines. He stopped the game and came to see what was going on.

Stan's English is very good, he explained the situation to Yuichi Nishimura in a leisurely manner, and then Yuichi Nishimura asked the fourth official, "Is what he said true"?
The fourth official was stunned. What Stan said was true, but Guardiola was not malicious, and Stan's description seemed to be that Guardiola maliciously harassed the referee.

Nishimura Yuichi didn't have the "American time" to spend with the fourth official, so he asked again, with a stronger tone.

Facing the severe questioning of the referee, the fourth official nodded.

Yuichi Nishimura turned to Guardiola and Mascherano. He couldn't punish Guardiola just because he set up the referee, but Mascherano's behavior is absolutely not allowed, even if he threatens to beat someone.

Yuichi Nishimura took out the red card and gave Mascherano the red card. "Marshal Ma" is really more wronged than Dou E, but his behavior is indeed inappropriate.

Stan, who got the advantage, was still unwilling to let go. He pointed to Guardiola to the referee, meaning why Guardiola should not be sent off too. Yuichi Nishimura gave Stan a hard look, his eyes were warning, and Yuichi Nishimura's eyes seemed to say again, "Don't think I don't know the little girl in your heart."

Stan accepted it as soon as he saw it, and quickly left the scene of the incident and returned to his bench. Stan picked up the water and drank it. He knew that he would be more honest next time.

*****
Stan took out his notebook, wrote something, then tore off a page and handed it to Pekovich, "Go, Joe Lee".

Pekovic gestured to Li Qiao, and Li Qiao ran over to take the note in Pekovic's hand. This is a very basic way of conveying tactics.

Li Qiao opened the note, on which was written in Chinese, "Keep a low profile for 10 minutes".

Li Qiao smiled knowingly, he understood, and returned to the field to convey Stan's latest instructions to his teammates.

From 35 minutes to 45 minutes, that is, before the end of the first half, Guangzhou Tianbao's movements returned to cleanliness.

But facing Barcelona players, if the action is more standardized, then under that kind of low-intensity confrontation, Barcelona's pass success rate is almost 100%. In the last 10 minutes, Guangzhou Tianbao played very embarrassingly.

Stan on the bench rubbed his hands and stomped his feet. There was nothing he could do now. He had already been watched by the referee. If he didn’t keep a low profile now, the referee would definitely favor Barcelona.

And now Stan must prevent the "fifty big rebounds" from hitting Guangzhou Tianbao. Fortunately, the first half is almost over, and Stan just prays that he will not lose the ball again.

But the "Meiball King" would not wait for the intermission. As soon as the pressure from Guangzhou Tianbao dropped, Messi's breakthrough immediately became sharper. When Messi passed through Nekonan like a gust of wind, the Iranian subconsciously stretched out his foot and knocked Messi down.

Yuichi Nishimura had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Naikonan's foul, he immediately ran over and gave Naikonan a yellow card. Naikonan cursed a lot in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand and pulled Messi up friendly, but no matter how good the Iranians' attitude was this time, it was useless.

This is also what Stan expected. After Nekonan received a yellow card, Stan stood up, and he made a gesture to let Jeparov warm up immediately. In the second half, he was going to replace Nekonan. Otherwise, Nekonan would probably be sent off before the end of the game.

Now that he has received a yellow card, Stan is justified. He feels that he has nothing to owe, and he goes to the sidelines to direct his team.

Although Messi is strong, other Barcelona players seem to be a little tired. Barcelona's rhythm finally slowed down in the last 10 minutes of the first half, and it was 2-0. There is really no need to force the opponent to jump the wall.

This is what Stan is happy to see, but he still doesn’t dare to relax at all. Stan clasped his hands into a trumpet shape and yelled at the “horn”. He mainly reminded the defense line. Looking at the first half, Stan was very dissatisfied with the team’s defense line.

At this moment, someone touched Stan, and Stan turned around to see that it was Sun Jihai.

"boss",
"What's up"?Stan asked.

"Maybe I can help the team if you trust me",
"What do you recommend"?
Sun Jihai pointed to "Jacob Sim" who played as a left back and said: "He is not suitable to play as a full back."

The words awakened the dreamer, and Stan remembered the two goals conceded by the team in the first half. One was that Messi passed "Jacob Sim" with speed and shot the goal, and the second was also created by "Alves" from the team's left cross.

Although the two conceded goals were not the responsibility of "Jacob Shin" alone, they were indeed launched from the left.

"Damn, I forgot that the biggest problem with center backs playing full backs is that center backs are too conservative," Stein thought.

Because the central defender was taught from an early age that behind you is the goalkeeper, you must be cautious in every movement, and the full-back can move a little more freely. After all, if the full-back is passed by someone, it will not directly give the opponent a chance.

For example, Messi's first goal, if Taiwo was defending, if Taiwo couldn't catch up, he would choose to foul, but Jacob Sim's habit of playing football is to foul as little as possible.

Thinking of this, Stan said: "Jihai, you are right, go warm up, and you will play in the second half." Hearing Stan's order, Sun Jihai smiled, and he immediately started to warm up.

Stan looked at the time, the first half was coming to an end, he returned to the locker room early, he had to prepare something.

*****
When everyone returned to the locker room, the players saw what Stan was drawing on the tactical board. They just took a cursory look, and everyone laughed. Stan drew Messi, but it was so ugly that it didn’t look like it at all. Without the Barcelona jersey and number, everyone really couldn’t recognize it.

"Oh, sorry, that's about it for me," Stan joked.

After everyone is seated, Stan says, "Defend him in the second half," and points to the "Messi" he just drew.

No one dared to oppose Stan, and no one agreed with Stan. Only Li Qiao asked: "How to prevent"?
"Good question," Stan pointed to Li Qiao.

"Is it impossible?" Stan asked.

"Well", many people nodded silently.

"I have a question," Stan said.

"What", everyone thought.

Stan asked with a smirk, "Have you ever bullied an old man?"
"Coach what does this mean"?Everyone looked at each other.

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Stan was proud, and he turned the tactical board around. On the back was "Harvey" that Stan had drawn in advance.

Stan pointed to "Harvey" and said: "We bullied him in the second half".
