Football’s First Defender

Chapter 51: Difficult draw

   "This is the Zenit that relies on offense to dominate the Russian Super League this season"

   "A mercury-like attack, knocking the defenses of all opponents to pieces, the sound of rumors!"

   "It's just that such a repressive offensive frenzy must require enough offensive personnel to support it. Defence is still the biggest hidden danger that limits Zenit's offense!"

   "Especially without the back line guarded by Yang Feng, who has performed extremely well this season, it can be said that Zenit's biggest weakness in playing his offensive firepower!"

   Now Ed Wo Carter can't take care of the defense at all, he still knows the truth about bow without turning back!

   The first home group match can be won, and then facing the two strong teams of the Bundesliga and the Premier League, Zenit will have more confidence!

   "Zenit continues to besiege Alkmaar at halftime!"

   "This time it is still Anyukov who came in to assist!"

   "After Zilyanov broke through to attract the defense, he took the ball a short distance and passed it to nearby Anyukov!"

   "Anyukov passed directly to Arshavin, shifted over to the front!"

   "Arshavin received the football in front of the penalty zone line!"

   "The defensive players who had been targeting Anyukov before were ready to attack Arshavin, but Arshavin did not wait for more defenders to double-team over!"

   "Kump the ball directly on the back heel!"

   "Don't look at people's heels to pass the ball! The ball was knocked directly outside the penalty area at a 45-degree angle!"

   "Anyukov, who passed the ball before, had already cut in quickly along the outside line when he finished the pass!"

   "The double-teamers had to face Anyukov on the side again!"

   "Such a good chance to make a cross, but Anyukov did not choose to play directly from the side to the penalty area!"

   "A light and straight plug directly into the penalty area!"

   "Arshavin, who has passed the ball from the heel, has already inserted to the left side of the penalty area with his heart!"

   "This beautiful through ball was directly obtained by Arshavin!"

   "With such a good opportunity in the penalty area, Arshavin has a lot of choices afterwards!"

   "Arshavin directly selected an inverted triangle to return the ball near the penalty spot during the acceleration process!"

   "Pogrebnyak was the first to follow up!"

   "Boshen's advance has attracted the attention of most defensive players!"

   "But this inverted triangle is too far behind, and Bo Shen can't get a point at all!"

   "Behind Boshen is another forward Tektronix with a keen sense of smell!"

   "There is only one defensive player beside Tek, who is still on the other side! There is no way to stop Tek!"

   "A good opportunity to catch the ball and hit the goal directly!"

   "It was shoveled, shoveled, Tek fell to the ground!"

   "A penalty kick? This ball looks very much like a penalty!"

   "No, the referee from the Premier League signaled the game to continue, and no penalty kick was awarded!"

   "Zenit missed another chance. From the playback point of view, Tek was indeed tripped because of the tackle of the player behind him!"

   "I don't know why the referee definitely refused to award a penalty kick!"

   "Alkmaar escaped!"

   There is a rough saying on the football field, which is that if you can't make a long time, you will be killed!

   can also be said to be a reward for the defensive side. Hard defense is a reward. If you survive a catastrophe, you will have luck!

   Zenit, unable to attack for a long time, finally tasted the bitterness of his lack of defense!

   In an attack, Arshavin’s through pass was directly stepped forward by the opponent's central defender and he was intercepted! The next step is naturally an extremely simple counterattack phase!

   Alkmaar is waiting for such an opportunity!

   a kick passed to the midfielder of his own, and then the midfielder, directly thrown into the open space!

   Away forward Johnson once again got a chance to show his speed!

   Of course, although the combination of Scotter and Eric Hagen has various problems, it will not really reveal such a big empty space in every counterattack!

   is a professional player with a certain level after all!

Although Scotter did not directly clear the football, he still got the football, but he broke through the line, but Scotter was firmly sealed, and Zenit's midfielder also returned to the defense. Come here, the visiting team's chance of counterattack seems to be gone!

   However, the game has reached the final ten minutes of the final stage. Of course, Van Gaal will not point to the previous game, relying on one or two counterattacks to score goals!

   The visiting team also focused on this counterattack opportunity, and all members attacked! Finally in the final stage of the game, Alkmaar showed his fangs!

   "Alkmaar's offensive opportunity!"

   "After the counterattack was blocked, Johnson with a single arrow directly passed the ball back to the inserted midfielder Midshaw!"

   "Alkmaar suddenly fought a battle of positions in an orderly manner, which made Zenit who had been on the offensive a little uncomfortable!"

   "Zenit's defender, the position is still a bit loose!"

   "No hesitation!"

   "After two passes through the midfield, Midshaw is directly in the midfield, a beautiful through ball!"

   "The trajectory of the ball passes perfectly between Skrtel and Anyukov who just ran back!"

   "Johnson!"

   "A wonderful anti-offside!"

   "Scott wants to step forward and stop!"

   "But after Johnson took the ball, he took a step to adjust, and shot around the penalty zone line!"

   "The ball is in!"

   "This ball, just scored like this!"

   Compared with the reluctant commentary of the Russian commentator, the commentator in the Netherlands next door, but GOAL, GOAL, GOAL kept shouting!

   "Johnson of Alkmaar, use a beautiful anti-offside!"

   "Successfully completed an excellent quality shot before Scotter could effectively interfere!"

   "Alkmaar, who was a guest, succeeded in taking the lead in the 76th minute of the game, with a score of 1 to 0!"

   "Zenit suffered a severe test in the first group stage of the European war!"

   Zenit’s whole team is a little dazed at this time!

   After all, even if it is a lost ball, it is also more likely to be lost in a counterattack. This kind of situation where the counterattack is transferred to a positional battle but the ball is lost is still very difficult for Zenit!

   "Don't panic! Don't panic! Just attack back!"

   "Let's cheer up and attack! Isn't it just a ball gap!"

   For a huge stadium, even if Ed Wocart on the sidelines shouts loudly, he may not be able to wake up all players in a state of confusion!

   But the shouting of the players on the field has another effect!

   Fortunately, at such a critical moment, both the captain on the field and the team’s core leader Arshavin remained calm enough!

   After all, there are still more than ten minutes left. On his home court, Zenit may guarantee that it is difficult for his opponent to clean, but it is still easy for him to score a goal!

   "Don't worry about it! Now we can use all our attack power!"

   "Come on! Everyone!"

   Scott, who just had the responsibility of losing the ball due to lax defense, understands that he can only rely on his teammates in the front court at this time. Otherwise, after losing, the score in this game is the lowest, and he must be the back of the pot!

   "There is enough time for Zenit now!"

   "They just need a goal!"

   "The game starts again!"

   "Zenit, who has no retreat, continues to maintain the previous offense, and even because he is behind, you can see Zenit's offense even more fierce!"

   "At this point in the game, Zenit, with the help of his opponent, can finally abandon all worries and attack with all his strength!"

   "The connection between Arshavin and Tymoshchuk!"

   "It's a pity that although the pass was in place this time, Arshavin still lost the ball under the opponent's confrontation! Arshavin, who fell on the ground, protested to the referee again, but was ignored by the referee!"

   "Tymoshchuk used a sliding shovel to take the ball and shovel together, destroying the opponent's counterattack. Of course, a yellow card can't be avoided!"

   "Tymoshchuk is also shouting at the referee, pointing at Arshavin's position, maybe he is questioning Arshavin's ball, why didn't the referee blow it!"

   "Zenit's players, have they become anxious as they fall behind in the game?"

  For Tymoshchuk, how much he played in professional matches, maybe he didn't need a yellow card foul just now, but he could also effectively prevent his opponent's counterattack pass!

   But at this time, the team needs a morale boost! You need an aura to believe that you can match or even overtake!

Secondly, the referee’s whistle is a bit loose, and the penalty scale is even better for the visiting team. Tymoshchuk will use this yellow card to show the anger of Zenit players, to put pressure on the referee, and to influence the penalty scale for subsequent matches. !

   "A long shot from Tymoshchuk!"

   "After the visiting team's defense was constantly squashed!"

   "Zenit's long-range shot opportunities are getting better and better!"

   "Timoshchuk's shot is powerful and it puts a severe test on the goalkeeper!"

   "It's just the away team goalkeeper Bizot's performance so far in this game!"

   "Although I failed to win the football directly!"

   "But it is also a single palm for the bottom line!"

   "Zenit's corner kick!"

   Zenit has a lot of corners in this field!

   In the game, the dominant side naturally has the advantage of brushing the corner before taking the lead!

   But the more corner kicks are brushed, it actually proves that the strong team is very difficult in this game!

   Zenit has 13 corner kicks! Just can't get a chance to score!

   "Pogrebnyak!"

   "Under the interference of the opponent's central defender, the top of the ball was missed!"

   "Zenit still can't score!"

  …………

   Competition time is getting less and less!

   Seeing Zenit's first game in Europe, he will suffer the consequences of losing at home! Arshavin stood up again!

   "Arshavin, at the last moment, chose to do it alone!"

   "The opponent's defensive midfielder, there is also a winger who comes back on defense, 2 defenses and 1!"

   "But Arshavin! Rely on speed and a sudden change of direction!"

   "Successfully broke a path!"

   "This ball! Run from the bottom line to the penalty area!"

   "Beep--"

   "The flying shovel behind!"

   "Seeing Arshavin is about to break into the restricted area!"

   "Tackle directly behind!"

   "We can see that Zenit players are extremely excited!"

   "Referee, surrounded by Zenit players, think about it!"

   "The red card was drawn directly!"

   "This ball! The red card is justified!"

   "It is indeed a hurtful action!"

   "The visiting team was in the 89th minute of the game, one less player!"

   "A free kick in an excellent position!"

   "Although it is too close to the side, there is no angle to hit the door!"

   "But this distance, passing to the middle, is very suitable for a set ball for a header!"

   "Arshavin will drive by yourself!"

   "This ball!"

   "GOAL! GOAL!"

   "Goal scored! Scott!"

   "Scott will atone for his sins!"

   "At the end of the game! The header was tied!"

   "For this ball, Arshavin passed a ball that applied a powerful spin!"

   "Such a small angle, but chose to spin the ball towards the goal!"

   "The away team goalkeeper Bizot's attack ~lightnovelpub.net~ has made a mistake!"

   "After all, he is a young goalkeeper, so experience is really lacking!"

   "Such a strong spin in such a short distance!"

   "I judged the wrong height of the ball when receiving the ball!"

   "I didn't directly control the football!"

   "Scott, who is next to the goalkeeper, doesn't matter so much, he takes off vertically! Even the man dribbles the ball into the goal!"

   "We can see the visiting team players are surrounding the referee, protesting that the ball is suspected of hitting the goalkeeper!"

"But from the slow motion point of view, it should be a good shot. Skrtel took off vertically from the spot. The goalkeeper jumped back and hit him. Skrtel didn’t have any extra moves. It should be a good shot!"

   "The Zenit players who found something wrong also gathered around, and the players of the two teams even made some pushes!"

   "The referee still pointed his finger to the center circle! The ball worked! Zenit was at home, at the last moment! Tenaciously equalized the score!"

   "This is Zenit! Zenit will break through the opponent's Zenit in various ways! The new Russian Super Champion Zenit!"

In the end, perhaps both sides were angry. In order to control the development of the situation, the referee spent a lot of time in scoring and celebrating, but as soon as the three-minute stoppage time came, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game. sound!

   "The first round of the UEFA Cup this season! Zenit drew 1-1 at home with Eredivisie third runner-up Alkmaar!"

   "The visiting team Johansson opened the scoring in the 76th minute! Zenit iron guard Scotter made up for it and tied the score with a header at the last minute!"

   "I hope Zenit will continue to work hard, and the next three group matches will be better and better..."
