Football’s First Defender
Chapter 604: Catastrophe
Buffon's thoughts are exactly the same as Allegri's.
For a team like Juventus with a deep wealth of wealth, most of the players also have sufficient experience in the game. On the stage of the UEFA Champions League final, Juventus may actually be even more accounted for reaching overtime. Excellent party.
Although Liverpool is also a giant, but after all, they have just emerged from the dark period, and they are all young players of the new generation. Compared with the veteran Juventus, there is still a certain gap.
Even into the seemingly fifty-five penalty shootout, the comparison between Buffon and Mignolet, the comparison between experienced and inexperienced Juventus offensive players and Liverpool offensive players, how to look at Juve's future excellent.
For Allegri, he is more willing to believe that players can make full use of their game experience in a game that becomes "long" and catch the chance of Liverpool players making mistakes.
Therefore, the defensive counterattack tactics, not surprisingly, will be Juventus' core play in the second half of the game.
To defend well and wait for an opportunity to counterattack, Juventus does not have to insist on solving the game in 90 minutes. As long as it is not scored by Liverpool and the game is delayed, it is in Juventus' interests.
In fact, for Rogers, from his perspective, whether the game can resolve the fight in 90 minutes has little impact on Liverpool.
Of course, the experience of the Liverpool players is a serious injury in the final that has been mentioned by countless media. However, for young people, lack of experience is one aspect. There is sufficient physical fitness and vitality, but it is also Liverpool in the game. The advantage to the last moment lies.
Seize the time to attack, just because Rogers is worried that the delay will change. If the game can be resolved within 90 minutes, then it will be a better ending for Liverpool.
With Juventus fully retracted, only the double forwards were retained, and Liverpool's overall offensive defense line was also moving forward in the case of pressing in the midfield area.
Of course, Carlos Tevez and Morata’s double striker threatened to counterattack. Liverpool still had to retain double centre-backs and at least one fast full-back near the midfield to deal with Juventus’ counterattack.
However, when all the players in the midfield and the front court have offensive capabilities, combined with Moreno or Flanagan’s forward assists, the number of offensive players invested by Liverpool is also quite large, enough for many offensive attempts.
It’s just that Liverpool’s regular team offensive tactics, as well as the personal offense and small-scale cooperation between the front court tridents. After being thoroughly researched by Juventus, Liverpool needs some unexpected offensive factors to break the field. The deadlock between the offense and defense.
And the one who served as the breaker was-Yang Feng!
Although Juventus is in the midfield, with the double forwards of Carlos Tevez and Morata, unlike the previous game, both of them no longer defend the Liverpool backcourt.
is more about blocking Liverpool's route of passing the ball, and constraining the number of players Liverpool staying behind, and conserving physical fitness, and preparing for the own team to launch a counterattack before breaking out.
This also makes Yang Feng's possession of the ball in the backcourt almost undisturbed by Juventus' defense.
In the case that the frontcourt cannot start the situation, the key passers are all being guarded by Juventus defensive players. Because Yang Feng has enough passing space here, the Liverpool frontcourt players, in the case of unsuccessful offense, start Consciously return to Yang Feng, let Yang Feng come to comb the ball in the backcourt.
The original intention may just be for Yang Feng to do a long pass transfer of the ball, so that Liverpool's offense can be opened more.
However, Yang Feng's own heart does not want to be a simple passer on the court.
"Heaven will give the power to the people of Sri Lanka, and he must first suffer from his will and his muscles..."
For Yang Feng, his year-round hard training, especially after the defensive training is completed, the daily long pass training is to increase his role on the offensive end and enhance his comprehensiveness.
In the previous game, what was shown to everyone was that after finishing the defense, he used a long pass to find his teammate in front of the field and start a counterattack pass to his teammate.
Really fighting in position, Yang Feng's pass did not give people much impression.
It's not that Yang Feng doesn't have the ability to pass, but in most cases, Liverpool's offense does not allow Yang Feng to act as the passer.
However, on the stage of this final, when the two teams attacked and defended and were in a deadlock, at the moment when Liverpool could not open the offensive situation again, Yang Feng wanted to stand up and be the hero.
"Gerard, under Morata and Marchisio's combined force, he passed the ball back and found Yang Feng to deal with it."
"Yang Feng's previous long passes have been very good, but the pass is in place, but Liverpool's attack still cannot start."
"This time!"
"Even directly to the restricted area!"
Yang Feng stopped the regular wide-range transfer of the ball, but suddenly chose to pass the ball into Juventus's penalty area in the midfield.
"Stirling's fast forward!"
The Liverpool player who is most familiar with Yang Feng may be Sterling!
Although he is not very old, Sterling's qualifications in this team are still old enough, especially when he is on the court and when he is training with Yang Feng, Sterling is definitely ranked No.1.
is familiar with Yang Feng's every move, and has practiced with Yang Feng, various offensive routines.
Yang Feng's long pass, combined with Sterling's speed, has always been Liverpool's best defensive counterattack this season.
And this kind of small routine in positional warfare~lightnovelpub.net~ Stirling and Yang Feng have practiced many times in private training.
When Yang Feng made several long passes just now for scheduling, Sterling actually tried to move forward, but Yang Feng did not directly hit Juventus’s penalty area for stability, and made Sterling run a few times.
But this time, when the ball was passed back to Yang Feng's feet, Sterling still pushed forward again, even though Yang Feng had not passed the ball before.
"Get rid of the defender!"
"Yang Feng's long pass is very good!"
"Sirling shot directly and hit it!"
Yang Feng's precise long pass and Sterling's outstanding forward penetration speed together completed this offensive coordination and formed an end shot in the penalty area.
"Buffon! Complete the save!"
"But! Sturridge!"
"The ball has been scored! The ball has been scored! Sturridge scored a supplementary shot!"
This wonderful connection between Yang Feng and Sterling, although they did not directly score a goal, Sterling's shot still caused enough threats.
Under the close-range kick, Sterling's kick made Buffon only subconsciously make a save.
Although Buffon successfully blocked the ball, Buffon couldn't control the direction in which the ball was blocked.
Sturridge, who followed up, faced most of the empty goal, easily pushed and shot successfully, helping Liverpool regain the lead.
