Perhaps many people's impression of Sanremo still remains in the period when Moric missed the season due to injury last season.
Due to various reasons, although Sanremo achieved an impressive record during that period, the process was often extremely difficult. Most of the games were about coming back from a desperate situation and turning the game around.
But such scenes suddenly disappeared at the end of Serie C and at the beginning of this season.
Now Sanremo can always be the first to score a goal, they are the leader.
Same goes for this game.
In the 33rd minute, both sides became familiar with each other's game rhythm and began to look for ways to break the game.
Ascoli thinks simply. They hope to rely on their No. 10 player to break the game, and their No. 10 player does have such ability.
But they misjudged Lu Yang's ability on the defensive end.
After scoring the goal, Lu Yang was not in a hurry to open his account continuously.
Scoring goals is not that difficult, but players who think about scoring goals too easily often have a hard time scoring goals.
Lu Yang, the left midfielder, even transformed into a left back during this period.
To be precise, he plays like a standard wing-back. He is responsible for defense in the backcourt most of the time, and only soars to the front line when the team needs it.
On the opposite side, Kanyes plays more like a true full-back, always staying near the midline and able to go up at the first opportunity at any time.
boom!
Lu Yang made a frontal sliding tackle and stole the football under the helpless expression of Ascoli No. 10.
Facing high-level players, it becomes increasingly difficult to steal the ball directly.
This is one of Lu Yang's most intuitive feelings in several games this season.
In addition to suddenly going down to tackle, more can only be found in the opponent's passing path.
Tackles on the ground require very precise judgment.
Once you fail a tackle, it's a foul or even a yellow card.
The ability to make bold tackles and successfully disrupt the football is the clear difference between a top defender and an average defender.
Lu Yang is undoubtedly a player with the potential to be a top defender.
After receiving the ball, Lu Yang quickly passed the ball to Latuidi.
Latuidi hit the wall with his back kick. Lu Yang easily caught the ball after breaking out of the encirclement, and once again strode towards the ball, advancing quickly.
Moric saw Lu Yang's position and quickly ran to the left to help Lu Yang pull him.
Not long after Lu Yang passed the center circle, he split the ball with a kick and gave it to Moliqi on the wing.
Moric stabilized the ball slightly after stopping the ball, then made a false pass and passed the ball directly along the sideline.
Fernandez, who was preparing to respond to Moric, compared calls with Moric and made an early move to prevent offside.
This through ball directly tore through the opponent's defense on the wing. After Fernandez received the ball, he was unguarded on the wing. He passed the ball without pressure and the conditions were very good.
The choice of this cross is also very smart.
Everyone thought that Fernandez was looking for Sogel, but it turned out that Fernandez was looking for Lu Yang who came in from behind.
Lu Yang jumped high, but he was far away from the goal. There was a high school defender blocking him in front of him, so the chance of scoring directly was too small.
But how incredible is Lu Yang's vision?
He pretended to hit the goal, but it was actually a header that went backwards.
The football flew diagonally out of the penalty area.
There, Kanyes, who was inserted, had already completed the cut without the ball and let loose outside the penalty area.
Facing this half-high header pass, Kanyes' right foot seemed to be called upon.
boom!
On the right side of the penalty area, Kanyes shot from the outside of the instep of his right foot.
The football drew a classic C-shaped arc, bypassing the players in the penalty area and hitting the upper right corner of the goal.
Kanyes might not be able to kick this kind of ball ten times over, because the arc is too big and the placement is too clever.
But this time, Kanyes hit it.
"World wave! Kanyes contributed a super world wave! This goal is enough to compete for the best goal in this round of Serie B!"
"Kanyes scored a goal! He is like a fish in water in this 352 system! He can pass and shoot!"
"Of course, the very clever thing about this goal is Lu Yang's offensive choice! His header back is simply a stroke of genius!"
"Lu Ye connected, these are the two furthest people in the width of Sanremo's formation, but they jointly contributed to the goal at this moment!"
"Two to zero! Sanremo has completely taken advantage!"
Kanyes rushed to the corner flag to celebrate enthusiastically.
This feeling of scoring a goal, for a player who is a right back, is really a long time coming.
After coming to Sanremo, Kanyes felt that he was getting a full release.
During the halftime break, the commentator compared the first-half statistics of the two teams.
The results showed that Sanremo was significantly ahead of Ascoli in all statistics.
This means that Sanremo's lead was no fluke.
This has something to do with Sanremo's formation. Their formation determines that once they take the lead, their advantage will be even greater.
But it is also related to the abnormal performance of Ascoli's No. 10 player.
"He was frozen by Lu Yang! He had almost no outstanding performance in the first half of the game."
"Ascoli have to adjust their form, especially their number 10."
"Lu Yang's defense is very solid. His defensive intensity has even surpassed the Serie B level. Many Serie B defensive experts may not be able to do better."
"Everyone has seen that 352 liberated Kanyes' offense, but everyone may have overlooked that this formation also liberated Lu Yang's defense."
"In fact, because he is on the wing, Lu Yang's defense is bolder and more intimidating."
"San Remo will face their first Europa League game next week in the middle of the week. The opponent is the French Ligue 1 team Nice. Whether Lu Yang can freeze Nice's offensive core Boe may be the winner of that game. hand!"
"Okay, the second half of the game is about to begin, let's get back to the game!"
Second half.
Sixty-five minutes.
Kanyes took off again, directly hitting the opponent's wing, making the Ascoli people fall on their backs.
Ascoli has heavily guarded the wing where Canyes is located.
Kanyes passed the ball to Moric, who passed the ball in a wide range to Lu Yang who passed the center line.
Moric is one of the few players who can move the ball much faster than the opponent's defensive players when moving in a wide range. This is due to his special footwork.
After Lu Yang caught the ball, the opponent was not in place yet and was still approaching him quickly.
boom!
Lu Yang made a prompt decision and hit a super through ball with a 45-degree angle from the wing.
The football went straight to the top of the penalty area.
Fernandez, who is more of a shadow striker and attacking midfielder, easily got the ball.
But when he had space to hold the ball, he did not choose to hold the ball. Instead, he gently moved his instep and continued to distribute the football forward without stopping.
This time, it was as smooth as chocolate.
Sogel in the penalty area has already started, completely matching the football.
Next to Sogel, the closest defensive player is still two positions away.
Soger single-handedly!
boom!
Soger's feet are hard enough and he keeps pushing the ball to directly challenge the goalkeeper.
The goalkeeper failed to make the first move, allowing the football to cross the goal line first.
Three to zero!
Sanremo is becoming more and more familiar with the 352 lineup, and each player is beginning to feel at home.
Fernandez successfully activated his assist account in the limited game time.
And Sogel has scored two goals in three games, ranking fifth in the Serie B scorer list!
Of course, there are as many as three players with the same rank as him.
But it's still excellent.
With the increased advantage in the midfield, Soger will have better opportunities than he would in a three-forward lineup, and he may also score more goals.
After the goal, Sotu began to warm up several players.
He's going to replace someone.
In the 70th minute, Suotu used up all three quotas with a wave of his hand.
This style is the same as the life-fighting magic bird and Qi Xuanzong.
Camichon came on and replaced Matias.
Bazami comes on and replaces Fernandez.
Finally, Nagy came on and replaced Palacios.
Sotu did not set up obstacles for Najib, because Najib had already been crying and kneeling in his office and saying "fuck the sow".
Sotu is very atmospheric.
But if Najib gives him another trouble in this game, he is really afraid that his blood pressure will not come down.
Fortunately, Najib didn't have any problems in this game and was quite satisfactory.
Bayizami was very active after coming on the field, and Lu Yang, who became more and more excited towards the end of the game, took turns attacking the opponent's right back.
In the end, Bayzami successfully passed the defensive player on the way to the inside and reached the penalty area.
A pass in front of the goal, full of threats.
Sogel was stuck tightly, but no one expected that a little man would get in.
After pretending to be dead for more than ten minutes, Moric used the blind spot in his field of vision to avoid the defender, got into the penalty area, and directly grabbed the spot with one kick.
The football fell into the net without any suspense.
Moric successfully scored!
Sanremo 4-0!
Ascoli failed miserably!
Fans in the stands began to trickle out with five minutes left in the game, expressing their despair.
Sanremo once again won a victory, completing the first three consecutive victories in Serie B.
Lu Yang even won the honor of the best player of the game for three consecutive times with his one shot, one pass and many instigations.
Sanremo's attacking power also shocked the entire Serie B.
Not to mention three consecutive victories, he also won three consecutive games, scoring 13 goals in three games!
Who can stop this kind of firepower in Serie B?
…
"Italian Gatling!" Sanremo scored 13 goals in three games, dominating Serie B and seeking defeat alone! 》
"Leading the standings!" When will Sanremo stop their winning streak? 》
"Invincible?" With Sanremo like this, how can Nice beat them? 》
"The Strongest Fourth Tier Team!" Sanremo like this is not to be underestimated! 》
Nice Danger! Sanremo is about to invade! 》
"Three consecutive MVPs!" What can we do against this kind of Lu! 》
Sanremo has won three consecutive games. The most excited people are not the local media in Sanremo, but... the football media in Nice, France, not far next door.
Looking at their headlines, the media in Sanremo might even think they are the local newspaper.
Is this... so flattering to kill Sanremo?
Isn't it necessary?
A Europa League group stage, or the first game, is this a public opinion tactic?
The attitude of the Nice media is really confusing to many people.
But in fact, if you understand the relationship between Nice and Sanremo, you will know why they say this.
Nice is the second most popular tourist city in France, after Paris, with more than four million tourists visiting the city every year.
But in this context, their local people prefer to visit the surrounding areas after their free time.
It is said that domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. What do Nice locals not know about Nice? When they want to relax, most people choose Sanremo, just across the border from Italy.
As a result, Sanremo is all too familiar to Nice locals.
In addition, Ligue 1 or France as a whole has a strategy of introducing black people. Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, this approach will be resisted by the locals to a certain extent.
Most of the players in the Nice team are black players.
Although they are excellent, they have also squeezed the promotion opportunities of many white players from local youth training, which makes local people's feelings towards Nice even more complicated.
They support Nice, but they do not support all of Nice's players. Even Nice's current brightest star, Hassim Boe, was treated harshly by them because of his skin color.
Therefore, on the one hand, they hope that Nice can achieve good results, but on the other hand, they do not want Nice's black players to be too prominent.
So they would rather go far to praise a Sanremo team, praise the Italians, praise the Chinese... anyone is fine, as long as they are not black.
This angered the team's supernova Boe.
"They're a bunch of idiots! I really can't stand this city anymore!" Boe complained to his teammate Engel Caint, a player with the same skin color. "I'm leaving here! This is what I'm here for." The final season!”
Kaint was not surprised because he suffered the same treatment as Boe, if not worse.
After all, Boe is a supernova, while Kaint is just an ordinary midfield engineer.
He was only 1.68 meters tall, which made him almost insulated from football.
The reason why he was kept by Nice in the end was just because he was very willing to run.
The importance of running is not directly reflected in the top league from the beginning.
On the contrary, in many lower leagues, running can often change the situation of the game.
Although Ligue 1 is also one of the five major leagues, like the Bundesliga, except for a very small number of teams, the level of most of the other teams has not reached the level of the top leagues.
Missed by half a line.
There are also many young people in these two leagues, and the playing environment is very suitable for talented players to shine.
"Then you have to make good use of this season, perform well, and let more teams pay transfer fees for you." Kaient pursed his lips. In fact, he also wanted to leave here, really.
"Already have it!" Boe smiled and whispered, "Leon contacted me this summer."
Kaient looked shocked!
Lyon, one of the two super giants in Ligue 1?
Just like Bayern's unparalleled dominance in the Bundesliga, in Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon are two well-deserved class leaders, one level higher than other teams, and can be called French Super League teams!
Marseille, Monaco, Lille, etc., could only threaten them for a very short period of time, but they had never overturned these two mountains.
Ligue 1 has only two Champions League qualifications every year, almost all of which are occupied by them.
"Then why don't you go this season?" Kaient was puzzled.
Boe's smile froze and he didn't explain much.
Of course, it was because the entire French national youth team did not perform well in this year's European Youth Championship. Lyon hesitated and prepared to inspect Boe for a while.
This is why Boe wanted to criticize the Italian team after the European Youth Championship.
Because he received a notice from his agent that he could not go to Lyon for the time being.
Damn it!
And the most outrageous thing is that Lyon is said to want to inspect Italy's Moric and Lu Yang.
These are two midfielders!
Who do you think this is an insult to temporarily giving up signing a striker because of the investigation of two midfielders?
…
The Europa League group stage match between Nice and Sanremo was quickly put on the agenda.
September 18th.
Allianz Riviera Stadium.
Nice hosts Sanremo.
In this game, both sides have a 433 formation.
Sanremo used a classic combination in this game.
Bayzami, Soger, Fernandez
Lu Yang, Moliqi
ratuidi
Camichon, Bernoulini, Palacios, Canyes
Areola
At the beginning of the game, Nice showed the characteristics of a French Ligue 1 team.
Big move!
Different from the fierce confrontation caused by the fast pace of the Premier League, the Ligue 1 team simply makes big moves, which can also be understood as dirty.
Thinking about my Xixi games in French Ligue 1, it was extremely difficult to fall to the ground because the opponent not only had to drag you down but also pull you up again. This one-stop service is simply overwhelming.
In this situation, Lu Yang also hit the attacking midfielder and returned directly to the defensive midfielder position, working with Ratuidi to stabilize the situation first.
At the rear, Lu Yang saw the situation more clearly.
He soon discovered that today's battle was a tough one!
"Oops, we lost the ball again! Moric's condition today is very bad. So far, he has not completed the task of stabilizing the midfield. It is difficult for Sanremo's football to reach the frontcourt." The commentator kept talking.
His description was right, but his reasoning was wrong.
Sanremo's offense couldn't start today, not because Moric was in poor condition.
It's because... there is someone in Nice who is destroying the field control ecology established by Moric.
The connection of a core player can make the team's conduction orderly.
This places high demands on the core players. He must determine his ball release point in an instant and analyze the quality of the ball receiving environment at the ball release point. Otherwise, if football is spread out, it will never come back.
However, today, there was a short man in Nice who was even shorter than Molic, which disrupted Molic's arrangement.
The short man is not slow and his running coverage is very large. Almost every time Moric plays the ball, the short man is an interference factor.
Moreover, he was interfering with Moric one second, and then interfered with another player the next second.
The key is that this little guy has a bright head.
Not to mock him for being bald, but to say that he has great court intelligence.
The little man is also very good at thinking about the receiving player that Moric is good at.
This makes every pass by Moric very tiring, because you used to only have to think about two moves, but now you have to think about three, or even five!
In just over ten minutes, Morich felt like his hair was falling out.
No wonder that little guy has no hair, he is definitely overusing his brain.
"Aren't you tired?" Moric asked the short Engel Kanet next to him after a return pass. "Your running distance is probably the highest in the game now! Our team's Lu Yang No one is as willing to run as you!"
The little man smiled slightly, showing his white teeth: "If the moon doesn't sleep, I won't be tired. I'm a bald baby!"
Moliqi spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
666!
Co-written by you, you are still a rapper, freestyle is here, beautiful single pressure!
Because of Kaint's presence, the offense of both sides was very poor in the first half.
Isn't it a little strange?
It's understandable that Sanremo didn't attack, because Kant froze Moric's passing in a way that goes hand in hand with football.
But what about Nice?
Also because of Kaint, the offense was not smooth.
"Kaint intercepted the ball, beautiful! Kaint passed the ball, alas...he didn't pass it well again!"
This is what the commentators said the most in the first half.
Kaient plays a great role on the defensive end, but he does not have the ability to release the ball immediately after stealing the ball.
His long pass was so bad that it once made Boe in the frontcourt furious.
As long as there is a reliable one, Boe can at least get two more single-handed opportunities.
Of course, this is just what Boe thinks. He feels that his speed can eat up Sanremo's aging central defenders.
But even if Bernoulini is not fast, his predictive defense is still very powerful, but he can't use it now.
On the Nice side, after Kanet missed a few passes, he was criticized by his teammates. His face turned red and he no longer dared to pass the ball.
Every time after stealing the ball, Kaint can only hand it to the nearest teammate immediately.
This caused his breaking ball to lose its reverse polarity.
The first half of the two sides ended in a dull manner with a score of 0-0.
After returning to the locker room, Moric took the lead to find Lu Yang and said depressedly: "Can't anyone control that little guy? I can't control the field without him!"
Lu Yang almost stopped laughing.
Moliqi finally has the time to call others short people.
No wonder he played like shit in the first half, but he wasn't particularly angry. It turned out that he found satisfaction here.
"He is a very special defensive player. He is very smart and has a very high football IQ!" Lu Yang and Moric discussed seriously. "From a defensive perspective alone, he is an enhanced version of me!"
“He has the same coverage that I do, being able to cover the entire field.”
"And he's also very willing to run, he's always chasing the football and he's just a free agent."
"His front-on steal ability is very strong, and his shots are very accurate. Basically, his shots are to steal the ball. It is difficult for Bazami, Fernandez, and you to get past him head-on."
"But what really allowed him to freeze our offense... was his interception ability!"
Both Moric and Lu Yang knew this.
Kaint does not often intercept Moric's passes, but when the person receiving Moric's pass passes the ball, there is a high probability of being intercepted by Kaint.
Even in many cases, Kaint will cleverly use his teammates to restrict the ball player.
Short people are generally defensive holes. This is the inertial thinking in football.
But this little man may very well be defining a new concept of defensive powerhouse.
But also because a player like him has never appeared before, so... Nice's teammates don't seem to attach much importance to this little man.
At least, almost everyone was scolding him for the few times Kanet missed a pass in the first half.
His status in the team is not high.
Unlike Lu Yang, who could devote himself wholeheartedly but at the same time demand absolute control and respect, perhaps due to personal experience, Kaient only knew how to give everything in a low-key manner, but never explained or asked for anything.
Because for many black little boys who were once poor, if they can have enough food and clothing, they should not ask for anything more!
They don't know that blindly showing kindness and giving will sometimes lose value.
"How about we try this?" Lu Yang expressed his thoughts.
Moric was skeptical, but felt it was worth a try.
This method may be a bit... too underhanded.
This might be a huge injury to the little man.
This kind of method appears more often on the basketball court.
But on the football field... it really... hurts other people's self-esteem!
