Flip a coin.
Guess the side.
Guadalajara, playing at home and cheered on by more than 4,000, opted for possession.
The head coach of the home team, was very happy to get the opening kickoff.
Because then the team can execute, on the opening drive smoothly, the rush plan that has been put in place.
"Duh..."
With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins.
After the home side kicked off, the back line simply passed the ball around before starting to pass the ball forward quickly, looking for midfielders and looking for a breakthrough.
The tempo is very fast.
Real Betis, on the other hand, didn't seem to be in the swing of things at this point, handling and responding in a way that clearly didn't match the pace of the home team, and appeared to be caught off-guard.
Pepe Mel frowned at the sight.
He immediately saw that his opponent was preparing to take advantage of his team's unsteady foothold and quickly grab an attack! Striving to be the first to break through!
Although he saw his opponent's intentions, he yet its not making any adjustments.
Because he knew that with this group of players on the field who had no understanding, even if he adjusted, it wouldn't do much good.
The only one who could count on it was Su Yun.
He looked towards Su Yun, then said to himself.
"Su, show me your strength! Facing this desperate situation, where exactly are your limits? I hope you can give me a surprise!"
The game continues.
After the kick-off, the hosts pressed Real Betis well.
The left and right sides, like the home team's own back garden, were free to take what they wanted.
The Real Betis defenders, on the other hand, were very woefully out of sorts and exhausted.
Facing such an unfavorable situation, the substitutes sitting on the sidelines also began to get impatient. They were all starters who had been rotated off the field, and there was no way they could accept that their team was being toyed with by a weak team.
"The substitutes are still no good, how did they get pressed in the opening half?"
"When is coach going to put us on the field? I can't wait."
"Look, Santa Cruz is already sitting down to warm up, why don't we go too?"
The starters were talking like ants on a hot plate.
However, at this moment, Su Yun appeared unusually calm.
Goalie Awareness: 99
Goalie directing the defense: 99
The two full-level attributes made it very easy for Su Yun to see clearly the opponent's offensive sets, and the problems his team was creating on defense.
While observing, he also said to himself.
"Oh... So that's it, all their activity on the sidelines is feints."
"And... That front man in the middle of the field, he's been looking for an opportunity to pick up the slack."
"His own team's side... The two center backs, standing too loosely, the gap in the middle is too big, too lacking in tacit understanding."
"It looks like the other team will definitely attack in the middle!"
After a series of judgments, Su Yun also no longer hesitated, he decisively shouted to his teammates, "Hey, Amaya, you two center backs, you must pay attention to the middle! The opponent's attacking target must be the middle!"
Middle of the road?
How is that possible?
Amaya, the center back, sniffed and rolled his eyes outright.
In his opinion, the opponents have been looking for opportunities on the sidelines after the start.
How is it possible to suddenly run to the center?
You're still young! No experience at all.
Thinking of this, Amaya didn't pay attention to Su Yun's words, but continued to defend with his experience.
The other teammates also heard Su Yun's shout and, like Amaya, felt that it couldn't be the middle.
His own team's formation is a 4-2-3-1 with two backs in the middle, which is considered to be heavily guarded.
Instead, the opponents have been making wide shifts on both sides of the ball and have been attacking mostly from forty-five degrees just hanging in.
How could they suddenly attack from the middle?
Nope!
Suyun is not commanding the right thing at all!
But just as everyone was questioning Su Yun, the situation on the field, suddenly changed.
Caught the Real Betis players off guard.
The winger, who had been picking and choosing his chances on the wing for the hosts, suddenly cut inside and messed up the Real Betis defense in one fell swoop.
The Real Betis players quickly tilted the center of gravity of their defense, towards this side.
But instead of continuing towards the box, the winger fumbled the ball and suddenly passed it sideways into the middle again.
Su Yun saw that the situation was bad, and he hurriedly roared.
"Center! Quick, back to the center! The center is leaking!"
But it's too late.
The front man of the home team, who had previously been ambushed outside the box, took advantage of the chaos to receive a pass from the winger, and then directly kicked the ball straight through the back line of Real Betis in one fell swoop.
Center back Amaya was half a beat slow to turn.
Arriaga, the number one striker in the opposing team, quickly moved forward and the moment he received the ball, passed the entire backline of Real Betis.
"Shit! What are you all doing?"
Su Yun watched as the defense was penetrated, and directly exploded, then all of a sudden stormed out from inside the small penalty area.
"Come on!"
Facing the single cut that had been formed, Su Yun roared, then lunged towards Arriaga's feet.
"There it is!" Seeing Su Yun strike, the home team's head coach was overjoyed and felt that the ball was a done deal.
"Too presumptuous..." Pepe Meier also felt at this time that there was some lapse in Su Yun's judgment.
But the next moment, the two head coaches were all stunned.
Arriaga fakes a shot and tries to fool Su Yun, but he recognizes it with a glance.
Su Yun's foot stomped, suddenly changed shape and pounced out, directly received the ball of Arriaga's foot in his arms, while Arriaga fell a dog shit.
"Good... So strong!" The head coaches of the home and away teams, simultaneously blurted out.
Arriaga, seeing his excellent chance spoiled, was furious and approached the referee for a penalty, but the referee paid no attention.
Su Yun didn't care about Arriaga at this point, but instead, he furiously yelled towards his teammates.
"What the fuck are you all doing? I told you there was something wrong with the defense in the middle, why won't you all listen to me?"
Amaya and a few other defenders sniffed, knowing they had made a mistake, and they all bowed their heads, speechless, and feeling their faces burning from the beating they had received.
Just now, Su Yun had already been repeatedly reminding the middle of the road that there was a problem, but they had always been self-righteous and didn't believe it.
I didn't realize that the opponents' repeated wide shifts were really just creating opportunities for the middle.
If it wasn't for Su Yun's bravery, I'm afraid we would have conceded the goal.
Thinking of this, while these few defenders blamed themselves, they also secretly began to admire Su Yun.
Whether it was the previous judgment of the defense situation, or this last strike, all proved that Su Yun did have strength.
After figuring it out, Amaya, the temporary captain on the field, took the initiative to run to Su Yun's body.
He comforted Su Yun, "Su, just now it was us who didn't cooperate with you, don't worry, we will definitely try our best to cooperate with you next."
With Amaya having spoken, a few of the others had even less objection.
All of them decided that they would work well with Su Yun later.
Just that, despite the words, looking at Su Yun's tender face, they still had doubts about Su Yun's ability to command.
After all, just because the judgment was right that time, it doesn't mean that the next judgment will necessarily be right as well.
Never mind, let's trust him for once.
The linebackers, finally, stopped obsessing and chose to trust Su Yun.
