Football’s First Defender

Chapter 336: 5 Finger Mountain

Liverpool's defense, because of the players' personal defensive ability, no matter how well they are adjusted, they will certainly not be as robust as the defense of the top teams.

It is more dependent on the players' personal performance on the defensive end, and Yang Feng's proper command and assistance to ensure the team's defense, which can block Tottenham's offense.

After Liverpool’s opening three-axes, the frontcourt relied on personal ability but did not have a good effect. Tottenham began to gradually increase the team’s possession rate through the control of the ball and occupy the game. Active offensive situation.

"Although Spurs came to Anfield as a guest in this game, when Liverpool was rotating the team's lineup, Spurs played very actively today."

"But for Tottenham, sometimes the initiative on the scene may not really threaten the opponent. The team's biggest offensive weapon, Bell, is now under Liverpool's close defense and cannot give full play."

What Bell needs is space, enough space for him to start, and enough space for him to perform 1v1. However, in addition to the several offensive stages of the opening organization, Spurs left space for Bell when Tottenham seized the time to counterattack. In addition, nowadays, Liverpool has arranged the most important defense against Bell, which is to limit the space Bell can gallop.

As the core offensive point of Tottenham this season, Bell's passing ability on the wing, as well as shooting in the penalty area, and header ability are all increasing day by day.

However, after all, it is a player who made his debut as a left-back. In terms of basic offensive skills and the feeling of handling the ball, Bell still needs more time to train.

Now when facing Bell on the defensive end, Liverpool's first line of defense players have chosen to take a step back instead of being close to them.

Taking a step back is to give yourself more reaction time and space to defend, so that you can use the space to make up for it when you lose your speed.

This is actually a change that Liverpool had to make on defense. It is because Liverpool lacks the kind of strong defensive midfielder. Otherwise, the best way to defend is to keep the players close to the body and keep playing against Bell. To limit the starting speed of Bell in the first time.

But now, Bell's own physical confrontation still occupies an advantage in confrontation when he forcibly broke through the Liverpool midfielder before.

With a confrontational advantage and absolute speed, the players on Liverpool's first line of defense, facing Bell, can only choose to retreat to win the defensive space and avoid being passed by Bell.

However, retreating also means that Bell has a certain amount of long-range space.

It's just a pity that Bell, the weapon of long-range shooting, has not yet been developed. The threat posed by Bell from a few meters outside the restricted area is really limited.

Lao Lei also focused on polishing Bell's long-range shooting ability in training, but all this still takes time. According to Lao Lei's plan, this year is only the year when Bell gradually gets rid of the previous style of play, and it is the year when Bell has accumulated a lot of money.

Bell has to carry out a lot of offensive training this season to better improve himself, and next year's season is when Bell really develops and can show himself in the game.

As the end of the team's offensive frontcourt, in the game, Bell can always get a lot of the ball to his feet.

However, Bell, who has no way to give full play to his breakthrough ability, most of the time, is only able to use the space given by Liverpool players to make some long shots.

With his own starting speed, Bell can always complete the horizontal dribble, open up a larger space to hit the goal, and form a long-range shot, but Bell's shooting quality is not high, not so accurate.

Secondly, sometimes Bale’s long shots are always blocked by the Liverpool players.

In the long-range shooting, the original match-up defenders who rushed out at the first time restricted some of Bell's choice of shooting angles. Sometimes, when Bell approached the dangerous long-range area of ​​the large penalty area, he would suffer In the penalty area, Yang Feng's remedy came out. When Bell chooses a long shot, Yang Feng can always make a reasonable judgment. Sometimes, he chooses to grab and rush out, using his body to block some of Bell's route of shooting.

Throughout the first half, Tottenham had the advantage of possession of the ball, but they lacked enough threatening offensive methods.

Bale, the core offensive in the frontcourt, fell into Liverpool's dense defense and had no room to play.

On the basis of the existing personnel, in addition to a few opening starts, Liverpool were very self-aware to do their defensive work during the rest of the first half. When they had the opportunity to attack, there were only a few 3 or 4 players. Player participation will never give Tottenham a chance to fight back halfway.

Tottenham also lacks the ability to attack tough points, and they have to pay attention to Liverpool's counterattack. The team's offense and other players' responsibilities are very limited. Although Tottenham are intentional, they are unable to break through Liverpool's defense line.

The half-time match between the two sides was very dull, and the score was still 0 to 0 without any progress.

In the second half, the game continued to be dull for a while. By the 60th minute, Liverpool finally took the lead in making personnel adjustments.

Dalglish began to send the rotation of the main players one by one to strengthen Liverpool's offensive ability in the front field.

Rotating the rest players also need a certain amount of game intensity to ensure that their bodies do not "rust". Suarez, Downing, and Henderson all came off the bench. In the last half hour of the game, Dalglish still Be prepared to try on the offensive end to see if you can get something.

"After Liverpool changed into the main players, the game situation on the field began to become more attractive."

"As Liverpool began to increase their own team's offense, although Tottenham no longer had the super-high ball possession rate in the previous game, the threat of Tottenham's counterattack is obviously more threatening than the previous attack from the position. Big."

Liverpool’s attack is a double-edged sword. Although the team’s offensive end in this game will not be as full as it was against the underdogs, 5 or 6 players crossed the half-court to participate in the attack. The remaining players are scattered. The whole half-court still seemed a bit empty.

Especially when there is a counter-attack like Bell in the opposing lineup, Liverpool's defensive players dare not take the slightest care.

"It's another long pass from the backcourt to Bell!"

"After Kyle Walker intercepted the ball in the backcourt, he made a long pass and went to the front of Bell."

"Bell suddenly jumped forward from the center to the right to catch the ball this time!"

"The header controlled the drop point, facing Martin Kelly who was defending him behind him, Bell directly turned and broke through the bottom."

Martin Kelly, as Liverpool's youth training player, was ordered to start the game at a critical moment. The young players' physical confrontation ability and defensive experience are not so sufficient. This time Martin Kelly, after scoring the spot with Bell, took advantage of the situation and posted a little too closely.

Bell took advantage of a sudden turn, followed by a strong physical confrontation, and directly hit the space. Then Bell started directly on the right, stepped forward and rushed forward. Martin Kelly responded to the defense, but couldn't catch up. Bell's footsteps.

"Bell speeds up on the right and heads towards Liverpool's penalty area."

For the left-footed Bell, even if he completes a breakthrough on the right and wants to hit the goal, he has to adjust to his left foot.

In the process of running on the right, wanting to adjust to the left foot hits the goal, which limits the speed at which Bell can dribble the ball at full speed and restricts the choice of Bell's position in the goal.

Yang Feng's supplementary defense was equally fast on the defensive end, and he firmly stood within the penalty area, the most suitable area for Bell to hit the goal.

"Bell faces Yang Feng!"

Bell also knows that Liverpool’s last line of defense is the most popular central defender in the Premier League. As a central defender with a stream of consciousness, Yang Feng is known for his accurate judgment and decisive action.

In fact, Lao Lei also focused on reminding Bell before, try to avoid Yang Feng's defense.

After all, the stadium is so big that Yang Feng can't cover it all by himself. Football is for victory. He can pick up soft persimmons and play without having to touch the hard rock Yang Feng.

Before, Bell tried to avoid Yang Feng as much as possible, but this time, under the circumstances, Bell could not give up such a good opportunity to get into the penalty area and hit the door. Even if Yang Feng had a good position in the front, Bell still wanted Give it a try and use your personal ability to get rid of Yang Feng's defense and complete the goal.

"A direct confrontation between the core players of the two teams."

"Left-footed Bell, if he wants to have a better choice to hit the door, he can only cut this way horizontally inward!"

"Under the bottom, the angle will be smaller, and you can only hit the door with your right foot, which is not good for Bell."

"The horizontal cut after a sudden stop!"

"Yang Feng looked at the time and went straight to grab it."

With such an obvious and only choice, Yang Feng would naturally not allow Bell to move laterally easily and open the angle to open the door.

Although Bell chose the position of horizontal inward cutting this time, near the large penalty area line, he has not yet reached the penalty area, but Yang Feng also directly grabbed and went to block.

"Bell has another spike to the right!"

After attracting Yang Feng, Bell chose to use the smash and then change to the right again, hoping to pass Yang Feng before trying to adjust the shot.

"Yang Feng! Go straight! Bell's change of direction is still in progress, but Yang Feng went straight to the trajectory of the ball to buckle back to steal!"

Yang Feng is very confident in his choice. This is also a strong sense of confidence that has been honed in many professional games. Yang Feng believes in his own judgment and believes that he can complete this interception. Even if he fails, Bell is a direct single-handed.

"Feng Yang kicked the ball! He pulled the ball out of Bell's feet. Martin Kelly, who ran back from the back, completed the clearance in the first time. Yang Feng's excellent judgment completed his defense against Bell alone this time."

Bell did not expect that Yang Feng would still have enough defensive attention on the side of his "weak foot". This time the horizontal cut was false. Bell just wanted to complete a "black under the light". The door is inconvenient, but if a single-handed opportunity can be created, Bell also believes that he can seize the last chance when facing the goalkeeper.

The direct dialogue between Bell and Yang Feng began to become more frequent as Liverpool's offensive unfolded.

However, Yang Feng has always maintained his calmness. Even if he has faced Bell several times, he has won the final victory, but Yang Feng did not rush to a higher position to limit Bell, but hide behind his teammates. , Continue to let your teammates consume Bell in the first round, then find time for yourself, take advantage of the replenishment, and rush out to "pick up the head" when Bell has less room for adjustment because of a breakthrough!

Every time, when Bell faced Yang Feng who suddenly appeared and came to make up for defense, he was actually not in his best offensive state, and he always felt like he couldn't use it.

"This time, Bell has rarely accelerated on the wing, but Yang Feng, who was quickly repelled, used a slippery tackle to shovel the ball that Bell kicked out of the sideline."

"Bell was limited by Liverpool's defensive tightening in the first half, and there was no room for attack. In the second half, Yang Feng, who was finally delayed by Liverpool, completed many successful defenses. This'contradictory battle' is currently occupied by Yang Feng. An absolute advantage!"

Of course, every successful defense of Yang Feng in the final stage is inseparable from the front teammates. When Bell breaks through, they add "yokes" to Bell. Therefore, Yang Feng does not regard this as a personal defensive success. It depends on the entire Liverpool team.

Liverpool's offense in the final stage, due to Tangning on the left, also began to become more impressive, and the combination of Carol and Suarez, who grabbed points in the center, also put a certain pressure on Tottenham's defense.

Dalglish, after seeing Yang Feng's excellent performance, dared to allow the team to continue to appropriately increase the investment in the offensive end. After all, if they can beat Tottenham at home, then this game will be perfect.

"Carol scrambled for the next point, heading the ball back."

"Suarez, don't wait for the ball to land and shoot with one foot!"

"It's a pity that he played too rightly and was directly confiscated by the Tottenham goalkeeper."

"To fight back directly, the Tottenham goalkeeper directly dropped the ball with a quick hand and accurately found Modric who was waiting in the middle."

"Modric, take the ball forward quickly, Bell is at the forefront, but Modric is not too far away."

"Bell has just participated in the team's defense, and his position has just passed midfield."

Several Liverpool players have double-teamed from both sides, so we must work together to limit the counterattack cooperation between the Magic Flute and Bell.

"Modric, a precise through ball, a short diagonal pass to Bell's running route, the amount is extremely accurate in advance, Bell just didn't slow down and controlled the football."

Yang Feng half-turned and ran back, staring at Bell's dribbling route one day.

Just now, Liverpool’s main defensive forces all tried to block Modric’s pass this time, but Modric’s passing footwork was so good that he not only avoided the path of many Liverpool players, but also succeeded. Found Bell in front.

Now only Yang Feng and left back Martin Kelly can influence Bell.

But Kelly was too close to the side. Even though he tried to drive diagonally to the middle, there was still a distance. During this distance, Bell used his full speed to accelerate and rushed past early. Kelly's defense was no longer a threat.

"It's Yang Feng and Bell's 1v1 opportunity again."

"Bell, has been accelerating, still accelerating, rushing to the right side of Liverpool's penalty area..."

Yang Feng also had to open up his full speed at this time, and he didn't dare to make the slightest support. Whether to take advantage of the trend and hit the goal with his right foot without slowing down, or wait for an emergency stop and smash and hit the goal with his left foot, Yang Feng did not have time to go. Guessed, the most important thing now is to form enough defensive interference with Bell~lightnovelpub.net~ Bell enters the penalty area! "

"Forcibly passed Yang Feng a half step by speed!"

"Bell directly pushes the far corner with his right foot!"

"Yang Feng!"

"From behind Bell, he flew out and stretched his legs to block this time from hitting the door!"

"Yang Feng, when Reina was guarding the close corner, and he could only pay attention to this far corner. He caught up with Bell who was hitting the goal in the last step. A very beautiful flying interception blocked the ball. Come down!"

Bell couldn't believe that Yang Feng could be so fast, and his reaction was so fast. Bell felt that his speed had been exerted to the extreme, and he had left Yang Feng a certain distance before, but Yang Feng was desperate and chose to fly. , Blocked his own hit this time.

Yang Feng was lying on the ground panting because he was running hard before, and did not get up in time.

In the defense just now, Yang Feng made a rare bet. It was because Bell's speed was too fast, so that Yang Feng could not leave room to consider other things when defending.

Fortunately, no matter how abnormal Bell is now, he can't complete emergency stops and smashes under absolute acceleration. This time, Bell made a desperate push to hit the goal, and he still completed the block.

In the subsequent game, due to Tottenham’s vigorous counterattack, Liverpool chose to retract the defense and maintained the score at 0-0.

Both sides take one point each, and both are considered to have completed their pre-match goals.

However, in this game, Yang Feng's defensive restrictions on Bell have achieved the ultimate, so that Bell did not create too many threatening attack opportunities in this game.

As long as you take the cloud and ride the fog, you still can't escape the suppression of Wuzhishan.

Yang Feng is the mountain that stands in front of Bell, and Bell needs to find opportunities to cross it in the future!
