Chapter 28 Three consecutive wins
A defeat caused Sarri to lose the support of some fans.
But for Sarri, he has found a tactic that suits this team.
Although Tawana's return gives him one more option for forward use.
But Li Feng's ability to play with his back made him "thrilled", especially when he started, the help he could give to the midfielders was enough.
Tawana's shot selection is relatively more mature.
But the main thing that can be accumulated through games is the cost of time. What Sarri currently lacks most is the cost of time.
In the next 7 league games, Empoli needs to pay attention to their opponents. Their strength is not weak, and they are all teams that can compete for the play-off places, so they need to be extra careful in dealing with them.
In the 36th round of the league, Empoli will face their opponent Spezia at home.
Their direct competitor Latina will face Palermo, so these two games will be crucial games that determine whether Empoli can continue to sit in second place.
This means that Sarri will be ready. As for whether he will make a comeback, we really need to see what Sarri thinks?
The home game kicked off quickly with the referee's whistle.
The first player to appear was Li Feng.
When he kicked off the ball, Spezia was extremely serious about Li Feng's defensive arrangements.
Their defensive positioning made Li Feng frown. He did not expect that Spezia would "fight" directly when they met. According to this situation, it was still a bit tricky for him to tear apart the opponent's defense.
In the 34th minute of the game, Castilla's long pass helped Empoli open up a difficult situation.
Li Feng, who was leading the way, knocked Migliore away with his shoulder.
This kind of confrontation left Sarri a bit stunned. Since Li Feng started, Sarri noticed that Li Feng was improving in every confrontation. This is a growth for young people.
After pushing away the defender, Li Feng stopped the ball and made a dunk. He shook the goalkeeper away and pushed the ball lightly. Empoli scored first.
This also means that Empoli took the initiative in the game.
The 1-goal lead brought Empoli the initiative. Under Sarri's arrangement, the starting lineup at Empoli Stadium began to shrink. Such behavior made the head coach of Spezia couldn't help but complain,
"Old turtle, you are really insidious!"
With Empoli actively defending, Spezia could not gain much advantage.
Although they had a lot of ball possession, their offense was blocked outside the penalty area.
Until the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Spezia could only leave with frustration.
Similarly, Palermo also used a victory to help Empoli temporarily secure the second position.
The 4-point gap was a temporary relief for Empoli fans.
In the next 37th round, Empoli won again on the road. A 3-1 victory allowed them to continue to expand their lead in third place.
Li Feng scored twice in this game, which made Sarri pump his fist in excitement.
This game also gave Li Feng a big improvement. It seems that Li Feng has completed the progress and improved by a small section. Although the amplitude is small, for Li Feng, this represents a bright future for him.
As the 37th round of the league ended, Li Feng's personal data also reached 10 goals and 5 assists in 15 games.
Judging from the number of goals scored, Li Feng has entered the top twenty scorers in the league, which is satisfactory for a young player who is about to turn eighteen.
This also made Sarri want to persuade the other party to stay.
But considering that Li Feng came from Milan's youth training, Sarri didn't say the words that came to his lips in the end.
Sarri knows very well what AC Milan represents to young people born in Italy, and that is faith.
If he could coach AC Milan, he would not refuse, even if AC Milan is still in a mess now.
In the 38th round of the league, Empoli battled against the visiting Crotone. This is one of Empoli's most direct competitors. Although the opponent is currently lagging behind, there is no guarantee that this game will happen.
After the game, will they use Empoli to "sacrifice the flag"?
Empoli, playing at home, defeated the opponent with a beautiful victory.
Another 3-1 score, which is worthy of celebration for Empoli, as they successfully prevented their opponents from getting closer.
After 38 league rounds, the Serie B standings are already clear!
1, Palermo: 77 points
2, Empoli: 67 points
3, Latina: 61 points
4, Crotone: 58 points
5, Cesena: 56 points
6, Monad: 56 points
7, Barry: 56 points
8, Spezia: 52 points
Excluding the first two teams, the remaining six teams will fight fiercely.
Especially from 5th to 8th, they only have one chance. Once they fail, their efforts for a year will be in vain. In order to reduce this situation, they need to work hard to gain points and strive for a better ranking.
Although the 3rd and 4th places are in a wait-and-see situation, they still need to play up to three games to decide the final spot.
Judging from the current situation, Palermo performed best in the second half of the season in Serie B, followed by Cesena and Monad.
As for Empoli, who performed well in the first half of the schedule, they ruined a good game themselves.
Empoli is currently ranked second in the league, and there is not much difference between them and the points behind them. If they want to stabilize this place, this requires the whole team of Empoli to work together. Only in this way can they steadily complete their tasks for this season.
.
For Empoli's management, Pedri can still accept being second in the league until the end of the league.
Pedri felt a little heartbroken when he thought about being at the top of the list.
Especially after the 22nd round of the league, Empoli began to have frequent problems, which also affected the players' confidence.
With a current margin of 6 points, Empoli's ranking looks pretty solid.
The following days of training sessions also deepened the tacit understanding between the players.
Considering the player's own strength, Li Feng has received more resources under Sarri's arrangement, which is worthy of attention for a young man.
For Sarri, the only pity is that Li Feng is not owned by Empoli, he is a youth training player of Milan.
If this is a youth training player from Empoli, then Sarri will lean more resources on him.
It's a pity that Li Feng is not. For the future of the team, Sarri must cultivate more young people for the team, and they are the kind who can be bought out!
