Football’s First Defender

Chapter 325: 3-line combat

ntent

   After a big win over the league leader Manchester City, Liverpool almost killed the suspense of going to Manchester in the second leg.

   Now they can shift their focus to the league arena to compete for the Champions League qualification.

   It’s just because Liverpool’s lineup is still a bit weak. After the League Cup match in midweek, the Liverpool players obviously did not recover from fatigue in the league match three days later.

   At home against Stoke City, facing Stoke City’s barrels, Liverpool's strikers really have few opportunities.

   "Sky City" is naturally not afraid of Liverpool's wing pass. There are too many players for the visiting team to fight for the high point. There is no way for Liverpool to get a Carroll into the opponent's double defense.

   The height of the others is so different from the Stoke City players.

   Although Liverpool have a very high ball possession rate in the game, they have the absolute initiative on the field, and they have also created many corner kicks and set-up opportunities.

   makes Yang Feng and Scotter two central defenders can also participate in the offense, as a high point to participate in the team's positioning tactics, but there is still not much room for development.

   The opponents' strikers and defenders are all tall and magnificent, so Liverpool will not be given a chance to compete.

   And Liverpool, whose wing pass and set-kick tactics were cracked, faced Stoke City, who was committed to defending one point. There was no other good way.

   Gerrard’s long-range shot from the midfielder faced the visiting team’s tight defenses. With all legs in the penalty area, the threat was limited.

   And want to rely on pass control, open the ground attack to tear the opponent's defense, Liverpool does not have so many skilled players.

In the game, Suarez once retreated to the penalty area to take the ball, and then even three wonderful performances, but at the end, the fourth defender in the away team's penalty area blocked the ball flight path. .

Of course, in theory, there is no solid defense that cannot be attacked. However, due to the fact that the physical fitness has not recovered, the Liverpool players who are unable to move their legs in the late game really cannot create by running frequently. There is a chance.

   is still a sequelae after the League Cup, but this is also the price Liverpool players have to pay in order to advance to the final.

   Fortunately, because Stoke City's goal is very clear, it is to stick to the away game to score a point, so the players' attention is devoted to the defense, and the opportunities created by the counterattack in the frontcourt are not too many.

   Yang Feng led the defense line, did not suffer too much threat of counterattack in the game, but several opponents' positioning opportunities, but also let Yang Feng withstand several tests.

  Especially Stoke City defender Thomason, in a corner kick, under Yang Feng's defense, still opened the way physically, completed the top contest, and scored a wonderful header.

   Fortunately, Renner reacted quickly at the time, and the angle of the header was not too wide, and Renner accurately received it.

   There is no way for both sides to change the score on the court.

   In the end, Liverpool had an empty possession rate of 70% and completed 21 shots, but the offensive end was nothing. The two teams drew 0-0 at Anfield, while Liverpool had no wins in the league in two rounds.

   Due to two rounds of invincibility, Liverpool have already been overtaken by Chelsea by one point in points, temporarily only leading Arsenal by 3 points, ranking fifth in the league.

   After finally resting for a week and giving the players a lot of time to recover their fitness, Liverpool took an away game at the weekend against Bolton, who was in the relegation zone.

   When the points of the five teams are staggered after the relegation zone, for these relegation teams, it is possible for the final point to determine whether the team can stay in the Premier League.

   So all the teams in front of Bolton are now their enemies on the way to relegation. Every home field is a battlefield where Bolton must grab points. Even when facing giants, even if they can't take all three points, they must break a tooth and hold the draw to get a point.

   Bolton originally planned to play at home, learn from Stoke's defense, and defend one point.

   But Gerrard's long-range shot succeeded in the first half, which declared the opponent's defense failure.

   Finally, Bolton, who had to attack his life, lost 3-1 at home.

   Liverpool’s loss occurred at the last moment and was a "face ball" for relegation opponents. Yang Feng stopped the game when Liverpool locked the victory 3-0 in 60 minutes of the game. The combination of Ager and Skrtel still seemed a little too reckless on the court. He was caught by his opponent and shot after passing. succeed.

   As Chelsea's current round of match was ahead of schedule and the away game was tied by Canary Norwich, Liverpool once again surpassed by one point, ranked fourth, and entered the Champions League.

   In the next week of the game, Liverpool will usher in two bad battles. The first is the second round of the English League Cup semi-finals. This time Liverpool will go away to face Manchester City.

   In the next three days, Liverpool will quickly return to Anfield to face their old rivals Manchester United in the FA Cup.

   Double Red Club will be staged in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

   With the team having a three-goal lead, Dalglish boldly carried out a rotation for the match with Manchester United 3 days later, and the team formation changed.

   Liverpool directly set up a five-back formation. The deputy Carragher started the game and partnered with Yang Feng and Skrtel to the third center back.

Although the left and right side guards remain unchanged, Dalglish deliberately reduced the attack range of the two in the tactical arrangement, so that both of them can fully defend, in order to reduce the physical consumption of the two. , To prepare for the future.

   In midfield, Downing and Charlie Adam are on breaks, Kuyt and Maxi are replaced, and Gerrard and Henderson are also responsible for the team's defense, so there is no need to consume too much energy on the offensive end.

   The single forward is still a very threatening Suarez.

   Liverpool's defensive appearance in the away game did not stimulate Manchester City to give it a go.

   In this game, Manchester City has actually made the plan to give up. After all, they and Liverpool are fighting to death and life. They may not have the opportunity to complete the three-goal reversal. They will only cheaper Manchester United in the league and the FA Cup.

   So it is better to keep your strength, to ensure that the players are not injured, to concentrate on the league and compete with Manchester United for the league championship.

   And three days later, Manchester United and Liverpool's double red club, a healthy and energetic Liverpool, will definitely bring huge consumption to Manchester United.

Although Manchester City is also the main player on the field, the team’s offense is actually a cutscene. Of course, if the team’s tentative offense can really achieve results quickly, then Manchester City does not mind if it really switches to a crazy attack mode to see if it can be completed. Reversal.

   It's just that, in today's football, it is still too difficult to complete a three-ball reversal with a similar strength.

Manchester City’s attack against Liverpool’s five defenders in the opening scene did not achieve very good results~lightnovelpub.net~ Yang Feng judged accurately and responded very quickly; Carragher is experienced and has the style of generals; Scotter is energetic Full and brave to grab.

   Liverpool’s defense line, when the deputy Carragher clearly handed over the command of the field to Yang Feng, Yang Feng did not live up to the trust of the veteran, and cooperated very well with his teammates to build a stronger defense line for Liverpool.

   Manchester City’s offense did not pose too many threats in the first half. Instead, Liverpool’s frontcourt player Maxi once again proved his strength in his rare playing time.

   A counterattack hit his own long drive straight in, which extended the big score to 4-0 for Liverpool.

   In the face of the team's shortage of players in rotation and three-line combat, Dalglish is also considering whether to give him more playing time in the face of Maxi, who has performed so well on the court.

   With the further expansion of the score, the players of both sides in the subsequent games, it is more like a formality, they are all working hard.

   In the second half of the game, Liverpool’s defensive team, with little time left, also began to rest and "release the water" in return for Manchester City.

   Silva used a wonderful kick to equalize the score for Manchester City at the top of the arc in the penalty area.

   The score of 1 to 1 was finally maintained to the full court. Both sides had less loss and will continue to fight for their respective goals in the subsequent games.

   And Liverpool’s current goal is only one, and that is the mortal enemy in every sense-Manchester United! ntent
