Football’s First Defender

Chapter 258: Mutual exchange

Football tactics are constantly evolving with the times. Compared with the extreme differentiation of positions in professional games in the past few decades, in the new round of tactical reforms, many coaches prefer the kind that can do more. Professional player.

Even for rich players, after mastering the world-class technical ability in their own position, they still need to continue to contribute to their skill tree to ensure that their comprehensive ability is always in a state of improvement. In this way, we can ensure that we can gain a foothold among the giants.

At this time, Yang Feng, who was in the game, was very envious. For many defenders who played central defenders more than ten years ago, they only needed to work on their opponents' forwards. With his defensive skills, he can become a world-class defensive player.

In today’s era, whether a central defender is good or not, in addition to proving his defensive strength on the defensive end, he must also consider how much help he can bring to the team in the team’s offense. The requirements of the central defender began to transform into a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects.

The central defender is not only endowed with greater offensive attributes when setting the ball, but for many teams, the team’s organizational offense also requires the central defender to have an excellent passing ability.

And Yang Feng's ability to deliver the ball, for short-distance passes, can also guarantee the accuracy of his own ball, but for long passes across the half-court, Yang Feng cannot guarantee his pass rate.

After all, this is a professional game. The opponent will not give Yang Feng enough time to prepare. Under the front pressure of the defensive team, Yang Feng simply cannot have enough time to complete all the passing moves. His long pass hit rate is a bit bleak.

For Yang Feng, when his defensive skills have not yet been tempered at home, there was no special plan before to temper his offensive talents.

After all, for the current Yang Feng, to increase his weight and muscle content as much as possible to enhance his physical resistance is the focus of Yang Feng's training.

But looking at it now, Liverpool’s large-scale press in the frontcourt is aimed at Yang Feng’s and Terry’s poor ability to play the ball, to force the ball to Yang Feng, or Terry, so that it can create the ball under full pressure. The opportunity to change the right, even directly cut off the ball, complete the counterattack on the spot.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Chelsea’s attack fell into a standstill under the pressure of Liverpool. Although Yang Feng did not make too many missed passes, Yang Feng was still under pressure from the Liverpool players. Under the pressure of the ball, there were several out-of-bounds passes that gave Liverpool a chance to reorganize the attack.

"Liverpool's frontcourt press is very effective. Chelsea players can't cooperate smoothly with the ball. Under the full-court press of Liverpool players, Chelsea's pass error rate, especially the pass after the central line The turnover rate has started to increase dramatically."

"It's Yang Feng's long pass again. Due to the fierce frontcourt press by the Liverpool players, it caused tremendous pressure on Yang Feng. At the same time, he also lowered Yang Feng's goal in the backcourt. The forward pass to the seemingly open space of offensive players."

"But Drogba or Anelka, in the case of 1v1, may be able to occupy the advantage of confrontation, but in the case of Liverpool players with more defense, they basically complete an effective stop and attack."

"Yang Feng's pass, Carragher took the lead to complete the race, Mascherano took the ball, Liverpool's counterattack opportunity."

As one of the Premier League teams with the strongest offensive firepower, Liverpool's counterattack tactics are very arbitrary, but they can still guarantee the team's offensive threat.

"Mascherano took the ball forward by himself. Since it was Chelsea’s offensive round just now, several of Chelsea’s midfielders maintained the physical inertia to rush forward. Mascherano’s dribbling moved forward for a while. In between, no Chelsea team could complete the interception nearby."

It is of course impossible for Mascherano to complete a thousand-mile attack by himself. Chelsea’s replenishment team is in place very quickly, but in the case of replenishment, there will naturally be certain loopholes in other positions.

Mascherano finished defending at Chelsea, and when he wanted to grab the shot, he straightened his kick and looked for Lucas on the right.

"Lucas, there is almost no way to stop him on the right."

Chelsea's defense line is now a bit messy, especially when Liverpool temporarily steals the ball to start a counterattack. Chelsea's defense line cannot form an effective connection at all.

Chelsea’s left back, Ashley Cole, was also prepared to step forward to assist Chelsea’s offense. However, in the case of Liverpool stealing the ball and counterattack, Ashley Cole wanted to defend well, but his own position. The situation is very bad.

When reclaiming the center line of defense, the area on the left that Ashley Cole was responsible for was exposed.

And Mascherano’s counter-attack pass accurately found this gap, giving Lucas a comfortable starting space, and giving Lucas enough choice to decide whether to cut back to the center. Looking for a chance to hit the goal, or go straight to the bottom, choose to pass the ball and find the opponent in the penalty area.

When Lucas finished the acceleration, he chose to continue the bottom. He wanted to get a better chance to cross.

As for Ashley Cole, when there was a problem with his defense, he naturally rushed out, hoping to complete the block, but Lucas's speed and passing skills are not bad, directly at Chelsea's left back. Before Ashley Cole rushed to the defensive position, he completed a good wing pass.

"Lucas, with no defensive players on the wing to interfere, he made an excellent wing pass and wanted to find a teammate who outflanked the Chelsea penalty area."

Lucas's pass has nothing to say. The accuracy of the pass is very high, but it does not work. Chelsea's defense in the penalty area is still the most threatening.

"Yang Feng! Completed the header directly in the penalty area and pushed the ball out of the penalty area again."

Lucas's pass on the right side has nothing to say. He did everything he could, but Yang Feng's rescue this time was equally brilliant.

Relying on the judgment of the ball's landing point, Yang Feng straddled his thigh directly. When Torres wanted to get up and rush to the landing point, half of his body effectively blocked in front, and Torres was firmly stuck in his own. Behind.

Later, when the Chelsea team was in possession of the ball, Yang Feng, who suffered a lot of disappointment after receiving the ball, won the final victory in the struggle for the pass in the penalty area this time, a powerful head. With the ball, Yang Feng directly hit the ball to his teammate on the wing.

Liverpool’s offense once again failed, but Ivanovic, who got Yang Feng’s header pass, finally survived the cracks. Taking advantage of Liverpool’s counterattack this time, Chelsea finally completed an excellent counterattack. opportunity.

"Ivan you Norwich dribbled the ball fast!"

"Rieira wants to step forward and stop!"

In this kind of strong matchup, it is not easy for a team to play a threatening offense. Both players are riveted, and they have to do everything on the defensive end. , To organize the opponent to move forward.

Regarding Ivanovic’s dribbling on the right, Riella’s defensive method is very simple, just wanting to foul, hoping to use fouls to prevent Chelsea’s counterattack.

However, Ivanovic also knows that at this time, his own ball is bound to be a good target for the opponent’s foul. In order to ensure the offensive threat of the team, Ivanovic can only do so during the running. Xi made a cross pass and handed the ball to Lampard, who was received by the midfielder, while Ivanovic continued to move forward.

"Lampard, after catching the ball, he stopped the ball directly at his feet and chose a pick pass before the Liverpool defender arrived."

Lampard’s choice of passing direction is still on the right. This time, seeing that Ivanovic did not slow down, and continued to move forward, Lampard understood Ivanovic’s intention to advance, so he gave a kick A very good pass is to play a lead, which can ensure that Ivanovic has a starting point on the right.

"Ivanovic, relying on his physical fitness, used his body directly and rationally, and grabbed the point of Lampa's pass."

Liverpool’s left-back, Insuya, speed and strength, is now unable to face Ivanovic in a head-to-head duel. Ivanovic easily grabbed Lampard’s foot on the right. It can guarantee that Chelsea's counterattack will truly fall into a substantive threat.

"Ivanovic, carrying Liverpool's left-back Insuya's defense, took the ball directly to the baseline on the right."

Before the ball was taken out of the baseline, Ivanovic took another big step and made a big arc to pass the ball directly into Liverpool's penalty area.

"Drogba, it's Drogba again. This time, Drogba used his physical resistance to the extreme, leaping high, pressing the two of them, and then slammed his head to attack the goal."

Drogba's shot is very beautiful, and the angle is still tricky. Although Liverpool does not have such a good defensive player on the defense line, the current goalkeeper Reina can also rely on his own play to ensure that his door is not ranked first. Break twice.

"Reina, take off sideways. When seeing Drogba having a high probability of getting the ball, Reina blocked most of the shooting angles directly after moving a few steps. A sideways save, again It was a single punch that kicked the ball out, ensuring the stability of his defense."

"Chelsea's corner kick opportunity."

In the corner kick tactics, Liverpool will encounter great defensive pressure.

Chelsea’s several tall players who are good at headers in the midfield and backfields, in this set-kick, naturally all came together, which is to use the opportunity of set-kick to directly attack Liverpool’s defense line and strike in the air. .

"Chelsea's height advantage is still so obvious. Liverpool can only strengthen and stabilize its set-piece defense by increasing the number of defenders in the penalty area."

"This time, Lampard himself will deliver this corner kick."

"Quickly draw an arc,"

"The ball is fast and it flies to the front point."

"Yang Feng!"

"This time Yang Feng is standing at the front point."

"Directly hit the header, this time Yang Feng did not make the ball at the previous point, but after a hit, he directly completed a header."

Yang Feng’s header hit the goal this time and flew directly to the near point. Although the hit was sudden, and the speed of the header was not slow, after all, he was standing at the front point. Back when he didn't give Yang Feng a chance to score, Yang Feng's header was still blocked by the Spanish goalkeeper Reina with his own wonderful save.

Only this time, Reina was able to complete the save is already very good, the ball could not be fully seized ~lightnovelpub.net~ still gave Chelsea a chance to shoot.

The two teams fought in front of the goal. Anelka once stretched out a leg and completed a kick. However, this kick was still blocked by the players in the Liverpool penalty area. After all, Liverpool players As soon as the situation was not good, they all went back to the door, forming a line of defense composed of human flesh in an instant.

Chelsea’s attack this time did not score the second goal of the game in the end, and the score between the two sides remained at 1-0.

On the offensive end, Liverpool began to try more simple and rude styles as the time of the game progressed. After all, thousands of offensive routines were not for scoring in the end.

Gerrard began to show his long-range shooting ability. As long as Chelsea's defense line relaxes a little bit for long-range shooting opportunities, and reveals a trace of openness, Gerrard just finds a way to shoot long-range directly.

The area before 30 meters was originally within Gerrard's own effective range, and because of Chelsea's defensive strength, Gerrard even began to consciously move further back to complete the long shot.

Even Gerrard once shot a long-range shot of nearly 40 meters in order to equalize the score for Liverpool as soon as possible, but under the pressure of Chelsea's defense, Liverpool still did not do much.

The game between the two sides began to become more and more anxious. Both teams did not have clear offensive methods and required a certain degree of individual play by each player. For Chelsea, at this time, their own game is to seek stability. Mainly, after all, your team is still in the leading position. Although a ball is not the most stable score, it has to be said that after leading, Chelsea can rely on their own defense to defend. A piece of world...
