Chapter 27 - Unnamed

   "beep"

   A long whistle sounded, and the referee's fingers were seen in the circle, and the goal was valid.

"Oh"

   There was an exclamation from the entire Selhurst Park stadium, this is a goal?

   This is too fast, right?

   Is there ten seconds?

  The reporters watching the game from the sidelines were also stunned.

   "How much time to score?"

   "I don't know, it's probably less than ten seconds, right?"

   "So fast? That's probably the fastest goal of the season."

   "It's very possible. I didn't expect that the Chinese people's evolution would have such a good effect."

   "Yeah. It is estimated that Burnley has already been scored before he can react."

   "Tsk tsk, this Chinese man is more and more interesting to me now."

   Stan Tenat on the sidelines didn't have the heart to pay attention to the few seconds it took to score the goal just now. His previous formations were all used to deal with Crystal Palace's quick counterattack.

  Except for a tall central defender who is specially responsible for marking Tony, the other defenders are mainly fast, flexible and turn around quickly.

   Now that Crystal Palace has two high center forwards, the back line he arranges can be a bit unbearable.

   Is it possible to make a substitution at the beginning of the game?

   That's too embarrassing, isn't it?

   Doesn't this mean that he, the old arena, has fallen into the trap of the rookie coach Chen Ran?

  But if you don't make a timely substitution now, and if you can't bear to be scored by Crystal Palace again, then everything will be over.

   For a while, Stan Tenant was caught in a fierce ideological struggle.

   "Good start."

   Chen Ran murmured to himself, and at this time he slowly relaxed, not as tense as before.

  The game is going on according to his script, this feeling of being in control of everything is really cool!

   Now, it's up to Burnley to deal with it.

  Chen Ran turned his head and glanced at Stan Tenant in the distance. He also prepared a killer move and waited for his opponent. It was up to the opponent to give him a chance to use it.

   After an advanced goal, Crystal Palace played even more easily.

   Guardiola and Simeone were in charge of scheduling in the middle, while Cristiano Ronaldo and Ribery on both sides used their skills and speed to repeatedly impact Burnley's defense.

   passed one by one, constantly falling on the heads of Tony and Crouch.

   That is, Crouch is thinner and his ability to head the ball is not as good as Tony's, which allows Burnley's defense to barely support.

   But after all, the height of the two of them is there, Burnley can defend once or twice, but there is no way to guarantee that they can grab the landing point every time.

"boom!"

  Finally, when the ball landed in the penalty area again, Tony hit the top and smashed the ball into Burnley's goal.

   "beep"

  Crystal Palace 2:0 Burnley.

"Oh"

  The whole court was cheering again.

   It was a 2-0 lead in less than 20 minutes, what a fantastic start.

  Crystal Palace fans were ecstatic that today's ticket was worth it.

  Stan Tenant on the sidelines couldn't care about his face anymore, and hurriedly called a tall central defender to warm up.

   This move was immediately discovered by sharp-eyed reporters.

   "Haha, Stan Tenant can't hold his breath anymore."

   "That is, according to the current situation on the field, if Burnley does not make any substitutions, they will definitely lose the ball."

   "That's right, Crystal Palace's twin tower tactics are simple and rude, just bullying Burnley's backline is not high enough."

   "The key lies in the flanks. Whether it's Ronaldo or that Ribery, Burnley can't defend either. They are always broken by Crystal Palace and pass from the bottom. Who can stand it?"

   "Unfortunately, Stan Tenant was hesitant. If he made a substitution earlier, he might not have lost the second goal."

"Hey, stop talking nonsense here. Changing people at the beginning, isn't that telling everyone that he fell into the trap of the Chinese? Stan Tenant is an old coach who has been coaching for many years, and he can't afford to lose this person. what."

   "The main reason is that the Chinese are too cunning, and the old Jianghu like Stan Tenant has also been fooled."

All of   Stan Tenant's actions were seen by Chen Ran.

   However, now that the initiative is on his side, he is not in a hurry.

   Let the bullets fly a little longer.

   Sure enough, Burnley's tall central defender was replaced immediately after the warm-up, and the game time had just passed 25 minutes.

  With the reinforcements, Burnley's defense line is indeed much more stable.

   Even if Tony and Crouch were able to grab the header, it was difficult for them to exert their full force when they were interfered with by themselves.

   The ball that was ejected was either missed or confiscated by the goalkeeper.

   The score was not changed until the end of the first half.

   Intermission, Crystal Palace dressing room.

   Chen Ran looked at the sweaty team members and nodded with satisfaction.

   "Guys, you performed very well in the first half, and completely played our pre-match tactical arrangement, which was great!"

   "Those guys at Burnley thought we were going to use the warm-up tactics and stepped into the trap we set up with one foot. Everyone has seen the result."

   "That's right, Burnley was played around by us."

   "Haha, boss, you are too good."

   "Don't worry, boss, let's continue in the second half and try to score a few more goals."

   Looking at the smiling team members, Chen Ran smiled slightly and pressed his hands down.

   "Don't get excited, this is just an ordinary game. The league has just started, and we still need to play game by game."

"Since we have taken the lead in the first half, in the second half, I decided to test the effect of the tactical conversion in actual combat. The way we played in the second half changed from Southgate's tactics to Simeone's tactics. ?"

"clear!"

   The successful first half greatly increased the players' confidence in Chen Ran.

   The process of the game was completely carried out according to Chen Ran's pre-match deployment, as if two people were playing chess together, and every move of the other party was within their own expectations.

   This kind of deep feeling is something the players have never experienced before.

   Now in the hearts of Crystal Palace players, Chen Ran's prestige has greatly increased.

   He said whatever tactics to use, no one questioned.

After    arranged the evolution, Chen Ran came to Crouch.

   "Peter, you played really well today. But we have to change tactics in the second half, how about you come down and rest first?"

   "Boss, don't worry, I have no problem. Tactical needs, I understand."

  Crouch grinned widely.

   After comforting Crouch, Chen Ran brought Ronaldo and Ribery together again.

   "After we switch to defensive counterattacks in the second half, if the ball comes to you, it's up to you to decide whether to cross the bottom or shoot from inside."

   "Got it, boss."

  Cristiano Ronaldo and Ribery glanced at each other tacitly, and now they can finally let go.

   As the second half started, it was discovered that Crystal Palace had made a substitution.

   Modric replaced Crouch.

   Sensitive journalists spotted the problem right away.

   "That Chinese man is going to change again?"

   "I guess so. This Croatian teenager is the main attacking midfielder in the warm-up match."

   "So, Crystal Palace is going to play a defensive counterattack in the second half?"

   "Hey, it would be interesting if that were the case. Burnley's double high midfielder now has the disadvantage of turning around slowly, and it is estimated that it will be blown up by Crystal Palace in the second half."

   "Haha, this Chinese is too bad. Does he want to play Burnley twice in a game?"
