Football’s First Defender
Chapter 409: Battle white 0 go
After a fierce UEFA Champions League match was completely tied by Bayern, they encountered another defeat in the league. This is definitely not very good news for Liverpool, which has struggled to rise in the league recently.
In the 28th round of the Premier League match in the same round, Tottenham, who was sitting at the White Hart Lane at home, defeated the visiting Arsenal team 2-1 with a brace from St. Belle in the game. After the victory in the North London Derby, Tottenham accumulated 54 points and continued to consolidate their third position in the league.
And Chelsea, who fell to fifth place due to a sharp decline in state before, also defeated West Bromwich 1-0 at Stamford Stadium in an earlier match in this round, while stopping their recent decline. With 52 points, Liverpool, who is still 51 points, squeezed into the Champions League again.
For Liverpool, the remaining 10 rounds of Premier League games are still a long way to go.
In these ten rounds, although most of the teams faced by Liverpool were underdogs in the middle and lower reaches.
But there are still three games that are destined to be difficult. Chelsea and Tottenham’s direct rivals in the Champions League are not to mention that these two matches, for the three teams, must be the “six-point match” for the qualification of the Champions League. . In the final stage of the league, the Merseyside Derby between Liverpool and Everton, regardless of the league points situation at the time, this game will definitely be as popular as usual.
Fortunately, for Liverpool, these three crucial tough games were played at their home court at Anfield. The home advantage is in a strong matchup. If used well, Liverpool can definitely be in an unbeaten position.
And just in the 29th round of the league, Liverpool ushered in a key test in the league, the home scene against Tottenham Hotspur, who is in hot form this season.
Under the leadership of the team's core Bale, Tottenham has shown a good competitive state this season, and Bell's omnipotent performance on the court has also become a well-deserved "third person" in the world. It is considered by countless media as an emerging superstar who can impact Messi and Ronaldo's status in football.
In recent leagues, Spurs has maintained excellent offensive firepower. The league has won 4 consecutive victories and 12 league matches are undefeated. It is with such outstanding performance that Spurs can become the most favorable competition for Champions League qualification. By.
Although in this game, Tottenham’s main winger Lennon, forward Adebayor, and midfielder, "Captain America" Dempsey are all missed due to injury, but they are supported by Bell’s hot state. All media believe that this game is still a close match.
Tottenham’s lineup used 4411 on the away game in this game.
The team's top forward is the veteran Defoe who performed well this season.
Although Defoe does not have the strong body of Adebayor, his faster speed, better running position, and sophisticated experience can also give Bell more offensive space.
Behind him, the free man in the field is naturally Gareth Bale, Tottenham's well-deserved attacking core!
Under the training of Lao Lei, Bell has grown rapidly. From a left back, in just two years, he has grown into an offensive player with a huge threat on the left and even the entire midfield.
His ever-increasing ability to control the ball, his growing shooting skills, coupled with Bell's outstanding speed, has become a nightmare for the entire Premier League and all defenses.
If nothing else, based solely on the performance so far, Bell is definitely the well-deserved Premier League player of the season, leaving all the Premier League stars behind.
As for the midfield, the one who can provide Bell with more offensive series is of course the "Icelandic Sniper" Sigurdsson, who has a unique free kick.
Dembele is more responsible for the corresponding defensive tasks later, while Parker is also separated from the two sides, acting as the team's side attack advancement, and opening up empty tasks for Bell.
Defensively, Tottenham’s goalkeeper is Frenchman Lori, who has also devoted himself in many games this season and has become a well-deserved main goalkeeper of Tottenham.
Vertonghen in the central defender has also grown rapidly. He has a solid defense and a general style. He has become a sweet pastry that many giants want to buy, but his partner may still have a little ability in terms of ability. Michael Dawson The strength of, there will always be some loopholes in the field, and he needs his partner and goalkeeper Lori to make up for defense.
This also limits the stability of Tottenham’s defense.
Right back Kyle Walker is good defensively. He also has extremely fast speed and a pretty good throwing ability. It can be said to be another gem discovered by Tottenham.
The left back Hector is also a full back with good speed attributes. Although he is short in size, his speed and confrontation ability are not weak. Like Walker on the right, he can use it to plug in to inject vitality into the team's side attack. .
The entire offensive system of Tottenham is based on high-speed running.
Use the speed and the players' rotation from the side to create opportunities to make up for the embarrassment of the lack of midfield organizers.
This lineup can create more offensive rounds by attacking extremely quickly on the field, and it can also provide Bell with more offensive ending opportunities, relying on the number of offenses to gain suppression and try to break through the opponent's door.
For Liverpool at home, Rogers made another bold attempt in the deployment of personnel in this game.
Henderson did not play in this game due to the accumulation of yellow cards in the league, but Rogers did not use his former direct line Joe Allen or Shervey, who has appeared on the bench many times this season, but instead sent him in the winter. Coutinho, the Brazilian who just transferred from the window, came to play the offensive midfield position.
Even the team's formation, in response to Tottenham's usual formation, also changed to 4411.
Sturridge and Suarez ambushing behind him, as Liverpool's two most powerful end points, naturally appear together.
In the midfield, Tangning on the right side is still the starter, who has recovered his form, to play the right midfielder.
In the middle of the season, after the arrival of Sturridge, Downing and Sterling competed for the right midfielder position. Although it was a bit uncomfortable to move from the left to the right at first, Tangning has gradually improved since it is better. The ability of physical confrontation can be more favored by Rogers.
After moving Wang Haicheng's Sturridge on the left to the center position, Rogers gave Coutinho to the left forward position.
Although Coutinho is not a winger in the pure sense, his absolute speed is not so fast.
However, during this period of training in Liverpool, Rogers has a very good impression of Coutinho's personal attack.
Excellent ability to hold the ball, the foot has the delicate foot feel unique to South American players, the passing technique is quite good, can send a very threatening ground ball, and the long-range shooting ability is not suitable for his age. it is good.
Letting it be on the left is not that Rogers intends to make a breakthrough on the left, but intends to use Coutinho's dribbling, passing, and long shots to try to create loopholes in Tottenham’s formation, which is the penalty area. The two end points within, win space and create more passes.
Lucas and Gerrard, as the team's stable starters, naturally continue to be responsible for their respective tasks.
The defensive line and the goalkeeper should have been older brothers.
There are not many strong substitutes on the back of Liverpool’s defense, but Skrtel suffered a slight strain in previous training and needed a two to three week rest. However, in this game, Rogers could only send Agger and Yang Feng to partner. .
After all, the old team’s deputy Carragher is already old. Although he has a higher priority than Agel in the team’s bench appearance, Rogers is still worried about his physical fitness and can only send Agel, who is not taken seriously, to start. Look for a chance in the second half, depending on the situation to see whether to change to Carragher.
The rest of the staff remain the same as the regular main force. Liverpool's overall tactics, center and right have not changed much, just keep the original performance.
As for the left, it is completely handed over to the young Coutinho, let him try to create his own space on the left alone.
For Yang Feng in this game, the primary defensive purpose is to limit Bell on the opposite side, and not to let him fly into the sky at Anfield.
However, the replacement of the partner had to ask Yang Feng to consider how to better run in with Agel.
Without sufficient tacit understanding, Yang Feng worried that many of his temporary decisions would cause the two defensively to lose position or interaction, and drag down the team's overall defense.
Before the game, Yang Feng had been communicating with Agel again. It is naturally impossible to achieve a tacit understanding in a short time. However, Yang Feng emphasized that the "I" should be the mainstay. Let Agel obey his instructions and he must resolutely implement it. There is absolutely no compromise. Except for any problems, Yang Feng will take on the responsibility himself.
And if Yang Feng has no defensive instructions, let Agel judge by himself, and Yang Feng will cooperate with him according to the situation on the field.
And this kind of central defender combination without sufficient tacit understanding can stop the hot Spurs attack?
At least in the beginning of the game, Liverpool's defense was fairly good.
Liverpool, who sits at home, has the absolute initiative in the opening stage.
Liverpool’s main offense has compressed Tottenham’s defense line very flat.
Especially Coutinho, who started the game in this game, does not have the youthful sense of a young man. Perhaps it is the nature of the Brazilian. He is very daring to make moves to show himself on the court, and his little skills are interspersed with emergency stops. After accelerating to dribble, Coutinho caused a great threat to Tottenham's defense on the left.
Further, as Rogers thought, the link between Liverpool midfielder and striker Sturridge and Suarez was revitalized.
"A cloud-piercing arrow! Thousands of troops and horses come to meet!"
In the 17th minute of the game, Coutinho's stunned four-seater long shot, hitting the dead corner of the goal, Lori couldn't save, and Coutinho successfully opened the record for the team.
The first time he started, he contributed a wonderful goal, which once again proved Rogers' excellent picking eyes.
After taking the lead, Liverpool did not hand over the initiative to control the ball, but continued to dominate the offensive situation on the court by itself.
Spurs' offensive opportunities are actually poor.
However, although the scene is not smooth, but Tottenham's offensive efficiency is high.
After Liverpool, many attacks failed to further expand the score, Spurs counterattack began to tentatively fight.
Of course Bell is the most threatening.
Although Liverpool's defensive left-behind players have been under more intense defensive care by Bell, the failure to hold Tottenham is completely unreasonable passing the ball to the far line, allowing Bell to sprint the game with the defender.
One pass made a mistake, the second pass was intercepted, and three passes Bell went out of bounds when he didn't catch up, but he couldn't hold the Spurs side and kept passing.
The ball kept passing to Bell. Even with Yang Feng's focus on this side of defense, Liverpool's backcourt area is so large that several players simply cannot control all the points.
Sigudson once again intercepted Liverpool's cross pass and drove to the open space deep on the right with his big foot.
It was Bell again, alone, rushing directly to the drop point.
Although Yang Feng is in a better position, he is always able to catch up to the position earlier, but Bell is completely unreasonable outside to overtake directly, and he does not give Yang Feng a chance to confront.
Seeing that Bell will take the lead first, Yang Feng can only further quickly retreat near the penalty area and defend Bell's next attack as the main task.
After unloading the ball, he continued to accelerate forward, but under Yang Feng's block, Bell was not so afraid of confrontation.
Having maintained high-intensity physical confrontation training, the reason why he can become the third person in today's football ~lightnovelpub.net~ is because it has an absolute speed advantage and can rely on stronger physical confrontation ability to let others Players simply can't complete the defensive task that limits themselves in 1v1.
Yang Feng's defense may be difficult, but for Bell, it is definitely not impossible to complete the offense.
Bell, who drove the ball from the outside and quickly rushed into the penalty area, under Yang Feng's swift follow-up, a sudden stop spike, and a horizontal cut inward.
Yang Feng has been guarding against Bell's sudden stop and change of direction at this time. After all, the left-footed Bell can only choose to pass the ball in the bottom, and when the spik comes back to the right foot, Bell can have the opportunity to hit the goal.
It's just that it can be prevented, but it may not be defensive.
Bell's coherent action is really too fast, and the distance of this step of dribbling the ball is large enough, directly throwing off Yang Feng's defense and gaining a certain amount of space for the goal.
A heavy left-footed volley directly penetrated the gate guarded by Reina and evened the score for Tottenham.
While Yang Feng was struggling to support, Agel was blocking a fixed defensive area. He did not come to complete the defense this time. Perhaps he was too confident in Yang Feng's defense. When Yang Feng did not have time to pass this time When instructed, Agel was really observing from the sidelines, and it had nothing to do with me, Yang Feng could only say that he was better than Scott...
