Chapter 27 Training
Zhang Jun and Yang Pan have officially entered the first team, and the relationship between the two and other teammates is also very harmonious, especially Ochu. Adriansse was worried at the beginning that the arrival of Zhang and Yang would make him a person who influenced the unity of the team, but unexpectedly, Ochu performed very much to him. Looking at his performance when he met the two competitors on the first day, I don’t know if he was by nature or to know the overall situation and put the overall situation first? Anyway, there was no bad influence in the team due to this change in personnel. This is what made Adriansse the most satisfied.
Of course, a harmonious relationship with teammates does not mean a tacit understanding. A harmonious relationship is just a foundation, and a tacit understanding still requires targeted training every day. Adriansse has been arranging training recently on the characteristics of two Chinese teenagers. Their strength is indeed outstanding, but their tactical literacy still needs to be improved. After all, amateur competitions and professional competitions cannot be compared.
Yang Pan and Zhang Jun cooperated well, but they couldn't match the points with other players. Therefore, in recent training, Adrians was doing offensive routine drills, in order to allow the two to integrate into Warrendam's tactical system faster.
Generally speaking, the coach will divide the field into three areas in order to better train. These three areas are offensive zones three, middle zone and defense zone three. Football is actually a game that creates space and limits space, and this is best reflected in offense and defense. Offense is to create and utilize space; pass and run; set-piece attack. The defense is just opposite, limiting time and space; pressing and protection; set-piece defense. As a coach, players should know how to make judgments in two situations: 1. Judgment of safety and risk; 2. Evaluate the chance of success of this style of play, that is, the most successful possibility of taking such actions under the situation at that time.
At the beginning, Adriansey asked Zhang Jun and Yang Pan to train to create space. Football matches are achieved by using space. Before a team uses space, they must first try to create space. Space is created through individuals or groups, and sometimes it is easily obtained due to the opponent's mistakes. Players with poor ball control ability need greater space to control the ball. Therefore, when considering individual space creation, the first question that should be raised is the player's control of the ball, which is also logical. Zhang Jun and Yang Pan have Rice in the youth team and are asked to supervise and guide themselves. In addition, their already good foundation, there is not much problem with ball control. Passing and receiving balls are the foundation of football and are regarded as necessary means to achieve any goal. Rice did a good job in this area, so Adriansey directly allowed the two to enter the stage of training with teammates - the training of creating space for the whole team.
In football matches, the individual performance of players is very important, but without a coordinated overall battle, no matter how wonderful personal performance is, it is worthless. With coordination, everyone can be fully played. There are many ways to create space by combining consciousness and action through two or three companions:
Use cross-coordination to create space. The creation of space is usually related to increasing the distance between defenders. The opposite effect of cross-coordination is to attract two defenders closer, so that space can be created on either side of them.
Cross-cooperation can be carried out horizontally or vertically in the football field. The players who control the ball move and cross with their companions. When they make cross-cooperation, the unballed team can take the ball away or lure the opponent for the companions who continue to dribble the ball. Adriansey told the two that there are three most important points when completing the cross-cooperation: 1. When you are cross-cooperating with your teammates, each person should suddenly accelerate. 2. If you dribble, you should dribble with the foot away from the opponent, so that you can better protect the ball. 3. You and your teammates should signal each other in advance who has determined who has transported the ball away and who has deceived it. If there is no sign-to-determining in advance, it is a pity that you will make a mistake between your teammates and lose possession.
If the ball protection movement is done well, the defense will find it difficult to see the ball running clearly. Coupled with the sudden change in speed, the defense will find that it is impossible to keep a close eye on the offensive players. Space will be created in this way, and using this space will have the opportunity to attack the opponent.
The goal of running in the back is to create space. The goal of running in the back is to create space and utilize space. This is usually the unstoppable player inserted from the side of the player's body and ran to the front position. The running in the back is generally carried out on the side, but it can also achieve good results in the middle.
It is very important to know when to cooperate and support the players behind the ball, and when to be in the back and run and enter the front position. When there is no need to be in the back and control the players, this is the time to support the players to move forward. If the team can turn around and have room to pass the ball forward, it is the moment that the team should grasp when the team behind the ball should be in the back and insert the running player. These are easy to say, but to really master it in the game, it really requires hard practice in the training ground. At least Zhang Jun has realized that when he was in the back and insert the running training with Bayes, he should not see the opportunity to grasp the running time, and with Bayes himself, he did not.
He had such a tacit understanding with Yang Pan, so he did not cooperate with Bayes. He either ran too late, but then ran away after the ball was passed; he was not even able to pass the ball, but he ran to the offside position before Bayes was passed. Adrians blew the whistle, stopped training, explained in detail to Zhang Jun, and then blew the whistle again, and the training started again... Relatively speaking, Yang Pan was much better. In high school and college, his tactical understanding ability was better than Zhang Jun. Therefore, Liang Ke chose Yang Pan as the captain instead of Zhang Jun, the spiritual core of the team. In terms of executing the coach's tactical intentions, Yang Pan is professional, and Zhang Jun has just started.
Create space by increasing depth and creating width. Football matches are a confrontational event, and the relationship between the two sides is confrontational, which determines whether one side is offensive or defensive.
When one side defends, its goal is to try its best to limit the time and critical space available to the offensive players. When one side retreats and gathers in the direction of its goal, the troops gather in the critical space near the penalty area. When the retreat is completed, the defenders will find that they are very close to each other.
When a team launches an offense, creating space and time is the first priority. It can be achieved by increasing depth or creating width, or both. In the meantime, every player must think quickly and run properly.
When creating space, quick thinking is equally important as reasonable running. Only when the players are fully focused can they think quickly. One tendency is that after exchanging ball control among their peers, psychological slackness will arise. If this happens, the initiative will be given to the other party immediately. However, if the players can always concentrate, they may continue to control the ball and grasp the initiative.
To give a simple example, if the defender cannot turn around and clear the ball when the opponent's forward is pressing, and does not want to give the opponent a corner kick for free, the best way is to pass the goalkeeper back. However, the goalkeeper back also needs to take a certain risk. Examples of conceding goals due to the mistakes in cooperation between the defender and the goalkeeper are common in football. One reason is that the defender does not implement the tactical requirement of creating space by increasing the depth and creating width. After the defender returns to the goalkeeper, the forward who has been forcing him will naturally shift the target.
, pounced towards the goalkeeper and effectively pressed the goalkeeper, which would cause the goalkeeper to panic. The goalkeeper is usually the person with the worst foot skills in a team, and in this case it is easy to make low-level mistakes. At this time, the defender after the return pass should pull to the side to create the width required for the goalkeeper to pass the ball. When the forward pushes the goalkeeper, he loses the care of the team's defender, and the goalkeeper can calmly pass the ball to the defender who has been pulled to the side. The defender can calmly decide whether to pass the ball with a long foot, or to drive the ball by himself, or to pass it shortly.
From the above, it can be seen that increasing depth and manufacturing width are actually ubiquitous. Only by using it rationally can your team get more opportunities. If every player of a team can open the run after gaining possession of the ball, it will raise questions for the opponent's defender and protection.
In view of the characteristics of this tactic, Adrianser regards the following six points as training requirements that he repeatedly emphasizes:
1. The players should not only run to different spaces from different angles, but also be able to see the ball during their running.
2. The selection of players should make it more difficult for defenders to keep a guard and protect each other.
3. The offensive players who are preparing to receive passes by a companion should have the broadest view range possible.
4. The choice of passing is very important. Try to consider the players who penetrate forward - they may not be in the largest space.
5. The quality of the pass is crucial, and the space has been created, but this space will be lost due to poor ball control and low-quality passes.
6. If the space has been created, the next step is to use the space. If the player continues to pass back or pass across, the opportunity to use the space will be missed. Therefore, after creating the space, the player should think about how to use the space and quickly advance to get a shot.
During this training, Zhang Juncai truly realized Rice's good intentions, especially the fourth and fifth requirements emphasized by Adrians, which are the basis of this tactic. Rice never tires about letting them train passes and catches, laying the foundation for them. If the foundation is not solid, nothing can be established. In this training, because of the solid foundation in front, Zhang Jun and Yang Pan have made rapid progress, and they can already make more exciting running and passes with several teammates.
Create space by running obliquely. Dynamic running, as the name suggests, is a diagonal running relative to the football field. This type of running can be in any of the following directions: from the middle of the field to the side road, this type of running usually refers to the running from the inside line to the outside line; from the side road to the middle road, this type of running usually refers to the running from the outside line to the inside line.
The purpose of oblique running is to create space or use the space that has been created. Sometimes this kind of running requires a short distance and a depth of 10-15 yards, and sometimes this kind of running will have a long distance of 40-50 yards. The first type is similar to the increase in depth as mentioned above, and the running must be a very steep diagonal direction. The latter type is similar to the manufacturing width. Due to the offside rules, the forward has to frequently perform oblique running with different depths and distances.
The oblique running of the player in the frontcourt position can cause many problems for the defenders. The defenders prefer the offensive players to run straight lines in front and backcourts, which helps the defenders to keep people in sight, protect and retreat to the goal. The oblique running is another type of opposition that one side does not want to encounter. The problem it brings to the defenders is to lead them out of the normal return line, and have to decide how far away from the back line, when to keep the opponent in sight, when to block the defense space, and how to protect each other.
The excellent oblique running of forwards often creates space that can be used by their companions. In Warrendam, because Adrians sets up two forwards, take the two forwards as an example. The two forwards run in opposite directions in the game and can separate and guard their two central defenders, which is called "separation running". The two central defenders are forced to leave their defensive positions, and a vacuum will appear in the middle. At this time, the forwards must quickly seize this opportunity and run from the midfield to the front of the penalty area. This run cannot be a straight line running, but in the middle
The defense players on the court will not notice the offensive players running diagonally due to perspective problems. This is called "blind spot running". Behind the defenders are areas that are easily attacked by "blind spot running diagonally". This should be mainly attributed to the fact that the defenders in this type of position tend to seek but do not take into account the opponent, and fail to observe the opponent's actions. When a forward runs diagonally, the player holding the ball should quickly pass the ball to his running route, that is, the vacuum area pulled out by the two forwards' separate running. The offensive situation will be opened.
Drift running is one of the most commonly used and effective tactics in offense, and it is also a skill that forwards must master. Therefore, Adrians arranged a lot of relevant training for Zhang Jun and Yang Pan in this regard.
Create space with a touch-touching style. Looking at high-level football games, players must have accurate and direct passing ability. The closer they get to the opponent's goal, the more important the team's ability to accurately and quickly play a touch-touching style is.
Some people may mistakenly think that one-touching style is too difficult for ordinary players. The general idea is to start with simple and easy things, such as two-touching or three-touching. This idea will lose the purpose and starting point of one-touching style, because the purpose of this exercise is to focus on improving the player's ability from the following aspects:
1. Vision range. Young players always lower their heads during the game, rarely pay attention to what happens on the field and the running of the surrounding players. Sometimes they should be attributed to the players who pay too much attention to the ball and do not observe the situation on the field. Two touches are allowed to observe first and then catch the ball, and then look up again before passing the ball. It is very likely that during the time of observing the ball and observing again, the situation on the field has changed, which often leads to the slow pace of wrong roles and playing styles.
The biggest advantage of a touch-up style is that it can encourage players to pay attention to the situation on the field and make decisions in advance before the ball reaches the feet. In unlimited games, facts tell you that direct shots may not necessarily bring effects, but in many occasions, a touch-up style is particularly valuable and necessary.
2. Decision-making speed. Football matches are to some extent decision-making, and of course, making decisions is also important. In order to think more deeply and quickly than the opponent's problem, it is crucial to have the ability to make quick decisions. One touch can cultivate players' ability to think quickly and make decisions as early as possible. Because, in a touch of the ball, you don't have time to slowly think about each step and then do the action, and the ball was already under the opponent's feet.
3. Ball speed. Undoubtedly, one-touching style is the fastest way to pass the ball. Fast often makes it easy to get space and a better angle, so you also get more time to observe the situation on the field. This is a very beneficial thing. In other cases, it is best to get the ball out as soon as possible. The defender will react to the movement of the ball. Therefore, if a series of touching styles are used, the offensive point will continue to change, and the ball will run faster than the defender's reaction, which will create greater space for the attacker.
4. Movement of offensive players. The defender must not only react to the ball's running, but also to the actions of the offensive players. When the players' fast movement and the ball's running, it is greatly difficult for the defender to make decisions.
A touch-up style can encourage offensive players to move quickly into place to help their companions get out of the ball, and can also prompt the players to quickly run to the next position after passing the ball.
This is why a touch-up style should be regarded as an indispensable part of football teaching.
Adriansey knows this truth well, so he arranges the training content of one touch-up style in training after all training. The touch-up style is a comprehensive technical and tactical style that combines all the skills of players running diagonally, switching positions with each other, inserting in the back, passing and receiving the ball.
At first, Zhang Jun believed that the way of touching the ball was the golden ball they played against the High School of Science and Technology in the final of the second year of high school, but during training, he found that in fact, a touching ball did not necessarily require many players to pass the ball from the backcourt to the goal. It was a super touching ball, not everyone could master it... The most common way of touching the ball was in the frontcourt and midcourt. A transfer and running connection between a few two or three people quickly broke the opponent's defense with a small range of cooperation, creating an opportunity to break through the defense and score.
A touch of the ball is not so much a technical requirement, but rather an examination of a player's tactical literacy and observation ability. Zhang Jun and Yang Pan do not have too many problems in passing and receiving techniques, but because of the lack of a long-term tacit understanding with their teammates, their passing looks like a headless fly. Teammates also lack an in-depth understanding of Zhang Jun and Yang Pan. To give the simplest example: How fast is Zhang Jun's acceleration? Other teammates don't know, so when Zhang Jun runs, there is always a phenomenon that people pass by and the ball passes. However, this is not a difficult problem. As the training deepens, everyone knows how fast Zhang Jun's start speed is? The team is the first. And Yang Pan's 100-meter speed is the first in the team.
While Zhang Jun and Yang Pan were still doing these hard but necessary training, while they were still trying hard to integrate into the team's family, and while they called their homes once a week to communicate with Ping An, the Dutch Football Super League had three more rounds. The next week was due to international match days, this week was a weekly double match. The intensive game made Warren Dam, who was not thick enough, and he lost again in three games, lost four consecutive games, without scoring a goal, and ranked last.
Adrians knew that his test had not passed. Although he successfully used a season to lead Rendam to the Super League, his poor record was also dismissed. Even though Super and Class A were completely different concepts, the team's boss didn't care about these things. After he invested money, he must see the rewards and the results, and his boss was still impatient...
The day after the sixth round of the loss, the boss Hoens called Adrians to the office for a morning talk, telling him that he must win at least one of the three rounds, otherwise he should consider finding a new job.
Adrianser's difficulties cannot be told to the boss. In fact, it is useless to say it. He needs the thickness of the bench to cope with the long winter. He needs excellent shooters to attack cities and villages for him. But all these require money. With Warrendam's strength, he is far less economically powerful.
The boss's impatientness is also reflected in his interference in his employment. He agreed to introduce players when signing the contract, and he, the coach, had the final say. But that morning, the old man Horns warned him not to joke about the club's money and future.
"I don't understand why you want to introduce two Chinese people? To be honest, Chinese people don't know how to play football at all. Look at their bad performance in the World Cup! And the two are still so young. Do you want to train them from scratch? Hell! Throw a lot of money on those two trash who have no future at all!" Horns became more and more excited as he spoke. He waved his arms and spitted stars, and every fat on his body trembled with his fierce movements.
Adriansai thought to you in his heart that he wouldn't be able to play football! You bloated, ugly, fat man! But he was just talking in his heart. He didn't want to turn against his boss now. His current performance is not good, and the boss is understandable.
But Horns actually said he was addicted, and he began to talk endlessly to Adrians, a famous coach who once coached Ajax, and he had a tactical class. In a certain game, he was too conservative and led to failure; in a certain game, he was too bold, led to failure; in a certain game, improper substitution, led to failure; in a certain game, wrong tactics, led to failure...
Adriance couldn't stand such a big fly buzzing in his ears. He stood up suddenly and interrupted the boss's "broad talk": "I think you promise, sir, if there is another defeat in the remaining three games, I will leave with those two 'damn' Chinese people!"
PS: Most of this chapter is talking about tactical training. I wonder if it will make everyone feel boring and bored? Hoho, but I also have to write boring, because this is a must. These tactical trainings are relatively basic learning processes for Zhang Jun and Yang Pan, and they must accept them.
In addition, I spent so many words to write tactics, and I also wanted to express a point of view. Tactics are not as thought as everyone thinks. They must involve formation and personnel allocation, which is called tactics. In fact, looking at football games, tactics are everywhere. There are big tactics, such as defensive counterattack, full attack and all defense, middle infiltration, and side breakthrough... There are also those tactics in detail. For example, two to one, some people may think it is a reflection of personal skills and a reflection of the tacit understanding of the two people, but this is also a football tactic.
What I lack has always been a more detailed and systematic theoretical knowledge as the basis. Hehe, but now I bought an old book during the Spring Festival and read it, and I suddenly realized it. My understanding of tactics has improved and I have also helped me a lot in writing.
Chapter completed!
