Chapter 46: Because they want to attack

Before the start of this game, to be honest, the Catalan United players basically didn't take the game to heart.
Although the players were replaced in advance during the Barcelona Derby last weekend, it was clear that they were preparing for the Champions League group stage.
But it's just a preparation for an ordinary level.
Do this before any game.
This does not mean how much they value this game.
After all, playing against Leeds City, which was defeated 3:1 away by them at home, is there any suspense?
As long as Catalonia plays normally, it is completely fine to win Leeds at their home court.
These three points have basically been booked.
Therefore, if the Catalan United players say that they underestimate the enemy, it is certainly not true. But if you want to say how much you value Leeds, it may not be...
If the opponent is the King of Madrid, they must take it very seriously.
But Leeds is just their defeat, there is no need to be too nervous.
At most, it's a snack when defending Hu Lai.
It is precisely because of this mentality that they were caught off guard by Leeds at the beginning of the game.
It was totally unexpected that the defeated players would dare to choose to play against Catalonia at the Sagrada Familia Stadium.
Fortunately, their self-regulation ability is super strong. Although they lost a goal, they quickly organized an effective counterattack, scored two goals in a row, reversed the score in the first half and took the lead.
At this time, the "don't care" of the Catalan United players towards Leeds has been greatly reduced.
After the head coach's adjustment during the intermission, the Catalan United players believe that the second half of the game will definitely enter their rhythm.
In the attack that just started in the second half, it was indeed the Catalan United's offensive that was more threatening. Whether it's Campsano or Salado, their shots are nowhere near the goal.
It looks like the game is finally back on track...
Just when the Catalan United players thought so, Leeds City's second goal came suddenly.
All the Catalan United players were caught off guard.
So much so that after the loss of the ball, most of the Catalan United players looked dumbfounded.
Appears unprepared for this loss.
As the captain, Rosas must stand up at this time. He slapped his hands and walked among his teammates and shouted to them:
"Don't panic, this is our home court!"
Afterwards, it may be that the effect is not particularly good, he added: "Just play them as Madrid kings!"
Regarding Leeds City as the main competitor of Catalonia in La Liga, the King of Madrid, this can be regarded as a very high standard treatment for Leeds City.
But no one in the entire Catalan United team would think their captain made a fuss.
Because through this 60-minute game, the Catalan United players have realized that the Leeds City in front of them is definitely not an object they can look down on.
The Leeds City that they defeated 3-1 away in the previous game seemed to be two completely different teams from today.

"Obviously... they have grown in just a few Champions League games..."
On the sideline, Catalonia head coach Benal said with emotion to his assistant coach Alberto Vazquez.
When he was so emotional, Leeds City was on the court and continued to attack Catalonia.
Leeds, who equalized the score, did not choose to shrink the defense, hoping to keep this point. It's an aggressive attack, as if you want to beat Catalonia away...
This idea is ridiculous, but it makes people can’t help thinking in this direction.
"But it's just two games..." Assistant coach Vazquez frowned. "And they all lost."
Since the last time Catalonia and Leeds played against each other, it was actually only two Champions League matches, both against Vesuvius. Leeds City lost both of these two games, and they lost terribly:
The first away game was 0:4, and the second game returned to his home court. Although he scored two goals, he failed in the end and was defeated by Vesuvius 3:2.
After only two games, there are still losing games. What growth can there be?
"Alberto, haven't you heard that sentence? "Even if it is a failure, it is a kind of growth.""
Vazquez heard the words and looked at Leeds City, who was launching an attack on the Catalan United goal. He was silent for a while, and then said: "They are indeed different from when we played against them. Now their attack can temporarily suppress us. ...Perhaps we should avoid the edge..."
Benal interrupted him: "No, Alberto. If we choose to defend temporarily, then we will fall into their rhythm. The more this kind of time, the less able to defend. This is our home court, if If we face a new UEFA Champions League team, we will all be pushed back into the penalty zone...our morale will collapse."
"But they are obviously making a fuss about the space behind us..."
"Of course. But we can also target the space behind them. Now things are very simple, it depends on whose offense is sharper, Alberto."
After speaking, he personally walked to the sidelines and gave instructions to his players-press forward!

"Benal wants to attack us!" Clark said excitedly.
Randyl saw him gearing up and vomited: "Isn't this normal? It's at their home court! Do you expect them to shrink their defense after we scored the goal? I haven't seen Catalonia at home. Shrink the defense, but the opponent must not be Leeds..."
As a well-known giant team throughout Europe, Catalonia's offense is integrated into the team's genes, even if their defensive strength is not bad, from the tactical point of view of the team, they also respect offense.
This is not just the habit of Jose Benal as a head coach, but the tradition of this team.
Because "Pleasant Football" is the motto of this team of Catalonia.
No matter who is coaching this team, if offensive football can't be respected, then wait for get out of class to end.
No matter how good the results are, the fans cannot tolerate such a tarnishing of the tradition of Catalonia.
Even when Catalonia fell into a trough thirty years ago, the team did not give up their football philosophy. After ten years of hard work, the team's performance has improved again.
"Offensive" is always the supreme pursuit of this team.
In this regard, they are very similar to Leeds.
It's just that Catalonia is now qualified to do so, and when Clark insisted on doing so in Leeds, he almost gave himself up.
Had it not been for the introduction of Hu Lai, an efficient shooter from Anton Shining during the winter break, there would have been no Leeds today.
"Actually, I'm really afraid that they will be pushed back by our attack." Clark covered his grinning mouth with his hands, for fear of being seen smiling so happily.

Both off-court coaches wanted their teams to continue their offense, and the two teams on the field were playing together.
This game was very enjoyable for the neutral fans, and it also made the Leeds fans scream and scream in the bar.
Only the fans of Catalonia are so nervous.
The neutral fans watched the excitement and wanted the two teams to attack.
The Leeds City fans are now in a good state of mind, being able to push Catalonia so embarrassed at the Sagrada Familia Stadium, they no longer care whether the final result is winning or losing. They hope that Leeds City will continue to attack like this and use the best way to fight Catalonia.
The Catalan fans are not as free and easy as their opponents.
Before the game, they had never considered the situation that they would not be able to beat their opponents, but now many of them have a cloud in their hearts, covering them.
Let them think about it-we won't even be unable to win Leeds at home, right?
If Catalonia really can't win, they are tantamount to giving their hope of winning the group's first place to their opponents.
After the end of this game, another Champions League group match will whistle and Vesuvius will challenge the Bay Lighthouse away.
If the former wins, it can reduce the difference to two points.
This is a very dangerous point difference, enough to stimulate Vesuvius to knock Catalan at home in the final round...
Under this kind of treacherous worry, every attack by Leeds City can make the Catalan fans in the stands exclaim and boo.
They can also be considered as experienced fans, what kind of opponents have not seen in the Sagrada Familia Stadium?
But today's Leeds City still feels different to them.
When the other teams attacked Catalonia at the Sagrada Familia, it was because they wanted to win the game.
In order to win, he was desperate and attacked desperately.
If they were allowed to choose, they would probably not choose to die at the Sagrada Familia Stadium and Catalonia if there were any elections.
And seeing this game now, Catalonia fans have a somewhat absurd idea in their minds:
The players of Leeds City attack not because they want to win ~EbookFREE.me~ but because they want to attack.
They attacked at the beginning of the game, and after leading, they still insisted on attacking.
They attacked after being equalized by the Catalan United.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, we will attack, grab a ball to tie the score and continue the attack...
Attacking is like their life, or the only thing they can do:
Except for offense, they don't know what to do.
So... Then attack!
It is precisely because of the madness shown by Leeds that the Catalan fans in the stands are so nervous that their bodies tremble.
Because they always feel... if the game continues like this, maybe Leeds can score again!
