Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 125: Losing at Sevilla
What to expect from playing against Sevilla? A team that is really full of achievements both locally and internationally, maybe many club managers will look for the name of the experience of playing, as well as the players. But not for some managers, such as Coach Giovanni, who not only seeks experience, but also shapes his character and mentality.
That's what Coach Giovanni is looking for with this tour of Spain. Coach Giovanni also wants his squad to have a strong mentality by facing strong teams competing in one of the best leagues in Europe, the Spanish La Liga.
Especially in the class of the Sevilla team, they already have extraordinary achievements, both domestically and in mainland Europe.
Although those who play now against the Cananga FC Mining team are not the first team of Sevilla FC, but still their level is much different. Like heaven and earth.
Until the 60th minute, Cananga FC mining is still in a state of lag. The score is 3-0 for the superiority of the Sevilla team, which is filled with many of their young players who have just been published as players who will compete in La Liga next season. Sevilla FC goals are created through a short pass scheme that is so beautiful to see by the eye, it is typical of the game of teams in Spain called tiki-taka.
Coach Giovanni also wants to adopt the style of play from this Andalusian team, let alone the Barcelona team known for its enhanced tiki-taka. It was one of Coach Giovanni's goals to tour in Spain to better understand the tiki-taka, Coach Giovanni tried it during the I-LEAGUE, but he still doesn't look good.
But the more Coach Giovanni watches the Sevilla FC team play, the more furious he becomes. Being annoyed with himself being unable to do anything for his children who were struggling on the field, the Sevilla game was really********** out of Cananga FC's Mining. The development of Cananga FC looks like a junior team that has just played football in front of the Sevilla FC team, although the content is almost sixty percent of young players aged around 17-20 years.
"I know we have no hope of meeting a team as big as Sevilla. But I did not expect, our team which is filled with many senior players, was defeated by their academy team" said Coach Giovanni upset, he then drank a cold drink to calm himself.
"What do you expect coach? We're up against one of the best teams in Europe, of course we're nothing in front of them" Coach Satria was also saddened by what he saw this time.
"But, it's a little awkward to see a scene like this, you know what I mean, right Satria?"
"I understand the coach!"
Coach Giovanni then looked at the small tablet he used to set the strategy, MDA his name, to name a few, a tool specifically designed to make club coaches easier to set team strategies and check the statistics of each player who is playing.
When looked at further by Coach Giovanni, it was not just those passes that Rizaldi admired. The whole game of the Sevilla team. Just like the goal that occurred in the 70th minute, when it was a moment of rapid counterattack and made the Cananga FC Mining team defense a little chaotic. The situation 5 against 3 is very unfavorable for Cananga FC, a cross that is so sweet managed to be cheated by Sevilla striker named Hugo Galliard. Young players are again shining at Sevilla and are likely to be projected as the main players next season.
"Tiki-taka is very good yes" said Rizaldi immediately, seeing a beautiful goal with a very beautiful scheme build-up, making Rizaldi a little fell in love with the game of short passes.
Coach Giovanni sighed. "I don't want to admit it, but tiki-taka is indeed a fairly effective ball game in the present times. When I was playing, the Catenaccio was the most popular strategy at the time. Actually I'd like to introduce that style of play to you Ward Prowse, but it looks like it's going to be impossible"
"Why is it impossible coach?" Rizaldi was curious about that.
"Because there are not many clubs that use that strategy. Now many clubs are using tiki-taka, kick and rush strategies or high-pressing games like Gegenpressing" Coach Giovanni replied briefly.
A large o is immediately created in the mouth of Rizaldi, then he asks the same thing to Borought-555 to get a clearer answer, but the answer from Borought-555 is almost the same as Coach Giovanni's answer. "Catenaccio is no longer popular in modern football, even Trequartista like Master has been very rare in the current era of football"
Rizaldi began to understand why it is so rare in modern-day football as it is today, because the style of games such as Trequartista or Catenaccio is outdated. Football players in the present era are required to be ready to play in all positions, or what is known as versatile. All-rounders are very special players, like Joshua Kimmich at Bayern Munich. Joshua Kimmich used to play as a full-back, but some games he also had to be an anchor player even more middle even though he could do very well.
That is modern football, the players are required to play very well in any condition and in any position. Even sometimes the attacker can be a little wide, the same is often done by Timo Werner of Germany, or Marcus Rashford of England who plays for Manchester United.
Coach Giovanni wanted to include Rizaldi's name in the second half, but unfortunately the time was running out made him undo the intention. Until finally the long whistle was sounded and the score 5-1 ended for Sevilla FC victory.
Rizaldi was not upset or angry because he had not had the opportunity to show his ability, he could only wait for the moment to arrive and to make the moment arrive before him, he must be diligent in training and make an appearance that will change the mind of Coach Giovanni forever.
