Football’s First Defender
Chapter 122: Confident Yang Feng
Since ancient times, the final unnamed game! Face this kind of key game of one-round victory! No one will dare to take risks on both teams entering the final. Seeking stability is the most important thing!
Let yourself be invincible first, and then seek to solve the opponent before the penalty kick! It really doesn't work. It's better to fight for a penalty shootout and see who the Lady Luck is biased than to be eliminated by the opponent directly!
Even in the 2 weeks before the final, there were as many as 3 league games, the Glasgow Rangers still sent their strongest team in this game! Even this main lineup, in the past two months, has maintained the rhythm of almost a week of double battles! Physical fitness may be the biggest enemy of the Rangers!
On Zenit's side, Ed Wocart also chose the team's most regular lineup at the end! In such a critical game, the tacit understanding of the players may bring better results to the team!
There is no change in the lineup with the big score victory over Bayern in the second round! Yang Feng's timely comeback greatly strengthened Edvard Carter and his players' confidence in winning the championship! No way, there is Yang Feng's back line of defense, just to make everyone feel at ease!
Players on both sides can't wait to prepare for the game! They have to use their performance to draw a perfect end to the whole season!
"Zenit’s lineup has not changed from the previous game! Yang Feng, who was injured in the last game, will be able to return to the line of fire in this final. I hope he can fully display his strength. To ensure the strength of your own defense!"
"The Glasgow Rangers are the giants of the Soviet Union and one of the oldest teams in the world. This game will be their second chance to win the European Championship after the European Cup Winners' Cup in team history! This game, the same The regular lineup of recent rounds has been used!"
"In the final finals, both sides deliberately be conservative and use their most familiar lineup and tactics to gain the advantage of the game!"
"Before the game has started, we can hear the shouts of more than 50,000 spectators in the arena, which has resounded across the sky!"
"But it is said that at this time, there are more than 100,000 fans outside the stadium. Because they cannot buy tickets, they choose to be outside the stadium, closest to the team, and cheer for their home team!"
"Even if it is to give back to these lovely fans, I hope the two teams can dedicate their best form today. Facts have proved that who is more worthy of such lovely fans, who can win the European Cup this year!"
"The referee's whistle! The UEFA Cup final of the 07/08 season! The official opening at Manchester City Stadium!"
"The first to kick-off is the Russian Super League team Zenit!"
"And the Glasgow Rangers, before Zenit's formation was unfolded, they all retreated to their own half, putting on a posture of life and death, you come to break the formation!"
Faced with the Wanderers, this field intends to defend to the end and fight back the tactical arrangement! Zenit’s players had already realized in the pre-match tactical preparation meeting that this problem might arise in the finals.
Face the iron bucket array! Of course, it is necessary to have pressure. Use your team's pressure to find loopholes in the defensive formation. If there is really no chance, use long shots to change the situation on the field!
"The Zenit player pushed the ball into the opponent's half. Although the Rangers’ barrels have suffered a lot in this game, many teams have suffered a lot, but Zenit has the strongest offensive firepower. As far as the team is concerned, can it really keep 90 minutes by relying solely on defense?"
"Zenit took the lead in launching a strong attack on the left! Anyukov also stepped forward to participate in the attack, cooperating with Denisov on the left! However, after many attempts to break through on the left, he attracted more defensive attention. After his strength, Denisov did not dare to try to play less and more on the wing!"
Never let the opponent catch the mistake and directly fight back, rather miss some very threatening passes and break through opportunities! Also minimize the probability of errors!
This is what Ed Wo Carter told him before the game. He would rather be a part of his offensive frustration, but also in such a critical final, give priority to ensuring that he is invincible!
"Denisov is still going back to the center to reorganize the attack for safety!"
"However, the Rangers' defense is very solid! Zenit's offensive players, back and forth inverting the ball hoping to find the opponent's openness, but they all returned without success!"
"Timoshchuk didn't have a good chance to see it! Just hit the goal with a long shot by himself! I hope to use a kick to try to threaten the Rangers' goal!"
"It's a pity! This ball is too angled! It flew directly out of bounds, higher than the beam!"
…………
Comparing with Zenit, who pays attention to the whole and is still in such a fierce competition, try to find cooperation! Their opponent, Rangers, is really simple! It is to use the most direct and simple method to attack Zenit's line of defense!
"A chance for the Rangers to attack!"
"However, not many people participated!"
"It's the transfer of a long pass from the midfielder Thomason to the left ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ the fast forward of winger Ferguson!"
"Desperate acceleration!"
"Although Hill also occupies a defensive position, there seems to be a gap in speed!"
"There is no internal cut, no emergency stop and change of direction, no meaning of returning! It just goes straight ahead! After reaching the designated position, it will pass directly from the side to the restricted area!"
"The long pass of a typical British team depends on the speed on the sides and the straightforward cooperation of the height in the middle!"
"However, the central defender in Zenit's formation is not afraid of the combination of Yang Feng and Scotter in this long-distance pass!"
"really!"
"Yang Feng's performance has not been affected by previous injuries. He accurately judged his position and got stuck in advance to firmly suppress Rangers' striker Pole Vitak behind him!"
"The header was successful, and it was precisely to Timošchuk who was not far away! Yang Feng's first defense in this game was very stable and reassuring!"
"Timoshchuk organized a counterattack..."
I have to say that after eliminating many of the five major leagues and the most powerful Bayern, Zenit's opponent in the finals at this time is definitely not a level of competition!
Since it is relying on the strong to bully the weak, this game naturally belongs to the kind of situation most suitable for Yang Feng to play!
Although, it may not necessarily have an absolute advantage in the physical confrontation with the opponent's high forward, but because the opponent's offensive means are very scarce and even if the wing breaks through, it cannot create an absolute chance. Most of them still force the ball close to the sideline!
This left enough time for Yang Feng to choose the correct position and position on the defensive end!
If these are the tricks, the wanderers will definitely get zero chance, and Yang Feng is so confident!
