Football’s First Defender

Chapter 39: Return of the King (2)

   "Zenit's offensive is unabated!"

   "For this goal, Domingos used his skilled foot technique to cause great chaos to the visiting team's defense during the breakthrough!"

   "After successfully passing the opponent's full-back with a fake move, Domingos chose to cut directly inward and dribble along the penalty area line!"

"This position is already very dangerous, you can shoot directly. Even if you want to give up the Arshavin he is staring at at this time, Sukhalev, the nearest midfielder to Domingos, still has to rush forward to block. A professional player, or a South American attacker, shoots without interference in the penalty area! What is the difference between that and a penalty kick!"

   "A beautiful straight plug!"

   "Such a short distance does not require too much direct force, just shake an ankle!"

   "Domingos' pass control is really great!"

   "Arshavin! Face the attacking goalkeeper!"

   "A left foot hits the goal, a light shot, the ball flies to the opposite corner!"

   "Post! Post!"

   "The post at home saved a wonderful goal from his own player!"

   "If this goal is scored, it will be wonderful!"

   "Facing the full back who came in, Dominguez passed the ball in time to the empty space!"

   "Also, Arshavin, who was temporarily unmarked in the penalty area, did not blindly wait in place, but chose to continue running laterally to obtain a better shooting position and shooting space!"

"Domingos and Arshavin are very close at this moment. Both sides thought of what the other would do, and relied on their own abilities to complete the wonderful cooperation they wanted. The only pity is that this is near the penalty point. The ball was shot without stopping, Arshavin was too eager for angle, the ball hit the outside of the goal post and popped out of the goal!"

   "Otherwise, the two players, playing such an excellent small-range cooperation in the opponent's penalty zone, is definitely one of the top ten goals in this round of the Russian Super League!"

   "Zenit still leads 1-0!"

  …………

   "Zenit's offensive players are a nightmare for most teams' defenses! Not only because of the differences in the players' personal abilities, but also the restraint of style!"

   During Zenit's offensive interval on the field, when he took the ball slowly, the commentator immediately began to introduce the basic situation of the team to the audience!

"The defense of most teams in the Russian Super League is aimed at the common tactics of other teams. That is to say, when the wing prevents the winger from passing the bottom, the middle defender and midfielder generally use that kind of height and physical strength. The strength type is to conduct hand-to-hand combat and prevent the opponent's high center forward from vying for the header!"

"But Zenit’s players, although there are also Pogrebnyak’s big killers for playing hand-to-hand combat in the penalty area, but other frontcourt players need speed and speed, technology and skills, and often You can work together to make a wonderful pass and cut cooperation!"

   "Because of their own flexibility, such as Arshavin, Domingos, and even Denisov, they are all types that other teams' defenses are not willing to face!"

   "Plus the midfielder's ability to pass and intercept, as well as two full-backs, they all have certain offensive attributes!"

   "Zenit's offense at this stage is like a wave hitting the shore, wave after wave, putting great pressure on the opponent's defense!"

"Of course, Zenit's back-to-air defense is there. Because the offensive players are too high, the back defense is obviously understaffed, but whether it can take advantage of the seemingly huge space depends on the teams. Level up!"

  …………

   "Yang Feng!"

   "Faced with this long pass, I got stuck in the position very easily, and succeeded in the competition under the interference of the opponent's forward, and pushed the ball out of the sideline! The opponent's counterattack once again failed!";

"It's Yang Feng again! This time because of the opponent's pass, it is really too strong. Yang Feng firmly stuck in position, opened his arms with his back, blocked the attacking player's forward path, and escorted the football out of the bottom line!" ;

"Yang Feng ran at full speed, directly swinging his calf, kicked the ball out of bounds at the fastest speed, and jumped to avoid the opponent's tackle that was too late to brake! Such a seemingly half-thick opportunity, when Yang Feng When choosing to fight, it must become Zenit 100% possession!"

   "Yang Feng..."

   "Yang Feng..."

   The away team is not without the opportunity to counterattack, but due to the lack of strength of its own players, it is really unable to rely on accurate passing, threatening Zenit's defense and avoiding Yang Feng's destruction!

The delayed Yang Feng has more reaction time and greater freedom of running. For those xjbt passes of the visiting team, Yang Feng almost never misses, he can control the direct counterattack, and cannot safely break out of bounds and let his opponents. The counterattack couldn't even get a shot!

  …………

"The first half of the game is coming to an end. Although the score is still 1 to 0, Zenit has already shot 12 shots by now. If it is not a matter of luck, I believe it is more than 2 to 0, 3 to 0! The most regrettable Of course it's Arshavin's foot post!"

   "Arshavin switched positions with Denisov this time and came to the left side of the court! Anyukov also got in. The visiting team's defense on the right side is facing a huge crisis again!"

   "Anyukov passed the ball to Arshavin, and then he crossed into the penalty area without the ball!"

   "Arshavin kept the ball straight forward!"

   "It just happens to be an empty spot on Anyukov's running route!"

   "Anyukov took the ball and attracted the attention of the away team's defenders in the penalty area!"

   "Will you hit the door directly?"

   "It's another pass!"

   "Arshavin!"

   "After finishing the pass, Arshavin also ran without the ball, along the penalty area line, and found a position where there is no opponent defender!"

   "Stop the ball, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Arshavin! Continue to the penalty area!"

   "The defensive player who was just attracted by Anyukov's insertion, quickly turned around, trying to block the angle of Arshavin's shot!"

   "Take another step to the right, and then! I hit the door directly!"

   "Goal scored! Arshavin!"

   "Arshavin took a step in the penalty area, shot hard and aimed directly at the upper right corner of the goal!"

   "Although the goalkeeper has tried his best to fly in the air and wants to save, there is still no way!"

   "This ball is really great! The ball is hit very high and has enough power. After passing the goalkeeper's palm, there is a rapid drop and fall into the goal! It is not a simple draw!"

"Arshavin and Anyukov broke through Luengia's defense line. After hitting the wall to cooperate, Arshavin, who played the opponent's defense between the applause, made a wonderful shot and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal. The score was 2-0, Zenit expanded the score advantage before halftime!"

   "Because the halftime of the game is almost over, Zenit did not continue to seize the time to attack, the fall of the ball in the future is the main goal, to save energy for the second half!"

"And it's more like a visiting team that walks through the field. When you lose a goal, you might want to rely on a counterattack to gain something. But with the two goals behind, the running of the visiting team midfielder is decreasing, and you may no longer want to waste energy. Kick it down!"

   During the intermission, Ed Wocart did not allow the players to attack freely in the second half as usual, but focused on the tactics of hitting the opponent's two sides and passing through the bottom!

  Everyone also expressed their understanding, especially Arshavin, Denisov and Domingos, who were the offensive performers in the frontcourt, all stated that they would resolutely hit the opponent's wing in the second half...
