Football’s First Defender
Chapter 637: ice breaking
"Fake?"
"Atkinson's sentence this time turned out to be within the penalty area and gave Milner a yellow card."
Milner was also very surprised. He was hit by Howard before and directly tackled to the ground. Now he is still sitting on the ground. Hearing the whistle, he thought it must be a penalty kick, but the referee would call him a penalty. Fouled and gave himself a yellow card.
Milner immediately "bounced" from the ground and directly argued with the referee, but Atkinson insisted on his own method. He thought it was an excellent goal for a goalkeeper from Everton, and since his whistle has sounded , Then you can only play Milner Flop.
This is the Premier League. In this era without video playback, the referee is always the biggest on the court.
"Replayed in slow motion, if Atkinson simply didn't call the penalty kick, there would be no big problem. After all, Howard's attack did hit the ball first."
"It's just that Milner was also taken down by Howard after completing the defense. He directly whistled Milner for flopping and gave him a yellow card. There is still some far-fetched."
It may be that Liverpool were too good at making penalties back then. It has already left a psychological shadow on the referees of the Premier League. This is to make up for other teams' penalty.
But the yellow card was given to Milner at the beginning, which is a very big hidden danger for Milner's defensive interception in Liverpool's defensive system afterwards.
As a midfielder, he carried a yellow card early. In the subsequent games, Milner's defensive actions will inevitably be affected.
With Klopp's signal from the sidelines, Henderson also completed a transition with Milner.
makes Henderson's position more rearward. In the face of some defensive emergencies, Henderson can still rely on fouls to block a while.
While the Liverpool players were still complaining about the suspected penalty but gave Milner a yellow card, Everton’s attack did not give Liverpool time to stop.
Everton’s offensive immediately spread from the backcourt to the ground.
Howard was prompted by the referee's whistle and passed directly to Browning on the right.
Browning accelerates forward with the ball.
Liverpool frontcourt player, just awakened like a dream at this time, in the game, quickly completed the grab.
It's just that Browning didn't choose to push himself on the wing, and he passed the ball diagonally forward to find Barry in the midfield.
And Barry took the ball again, quickly passed the ball to the counterattack and ran to Lukaku near the midfield.
Lukaku’s defensive pressure on Skrtel stopped the ball and immediately retreated back, opened the distance to Skrtel, and after gaining a certain amount of space, he immediately kicked the ball and passed the ball again. Deulofeu on the front right.
Deulofeu speeds forward after catching the ball from the wing.
After Moreno's individual defense, and after attracting Skrtel's defense, the Kaiser crossed again and found Lukaku who continued to run forward.
Before Henderson made up the spot, Lukaku did not dribble the ball to the threat zone where he could hit the goal himself. For this counterattack to be the biggest threat.
In the face of Henderson's defense, Lukaku played his own foot skills, sending a through ball directly from the center to the front, pushing the ball into Liverpool's penalty area.
In the entire Everton, Barkley ran the forefront in the counterattack. He took the lead, beside Yang Feng, the last core of Liverpool's defense.
Actually, according to the situation on the field, Yang Feng thought about an emergency stop to move forward and create Barkley's forward offside.
It's just that although Barkley is young, his game experience and on-the-spot handling are not bad. Yang Feng's offside attempt was spotted by Barkley. He has kept his position slightly behind Yang Feng's level and did not give Yang Feng an offside opportunity at all.
This time, he also saw Lukaku's through ball looking for the open space ahead, and Barkley broke out his fastest speed and rushed to the passing point.
While speeding up to the point of the through ball, Barkley was also sketching out how the ball would accomplish the biggest offensive threat.
"Yang Feng is defending on the left. I must be fast for this shot. I will catch the ball and pull it to the right to a greater angle to finish the goal. I cannot give Yang Feng a chance to grab it.
Yang Feng's reputation on the defensive end has been known to everyone in these Premier League seasons.
Every young offensive player who is not afraid of things and wants to become famous in World War I will encounter Yang Feng’s “social beating” when he wants to “play a big sword” in front of Yang Feng, wasting the opportunity, and then being sprayed by the coach after the game. dead.
At this time, Barkley didn't have the capital to "play handsome" in front of Yang Feng. To complete the shot as soon as possible was the most important thing in this counterattack.
Remember to think too much in front of Yang Feng, and remember not to perform a show operation. This is the experience accumulated by countless Premier League teams.
"Barkley, after catching the ball, he pulled the ball directly to the right and hit the goal!"
"Volley!"
"But! Yang Feng blocked it. At the moment when the ball was flying out, Yang Feng used a sliding tackle to block Barkley's goal this time."
For Yang Feng, facing young players like Barkley and experienced Yang Feng, from the expressions on their faces, one can guess a general idea.
Barkley’s firm face just now is definitely not a person with "sweet intestines". It must be the simplest and most direct operation.
Then Yang Feng can safely choose a sliding shovel to maximize his defensive area and complete this blockade.
Fortunately, Yang Feng's judgment was as accurate as ever. This slippery tackle just blocked Barkley's goal and blocked the ball directly out of the baseline, only giving Everton a sideline kick.
After the first few minutes of possession, the two teams "showed their true shape" and began to fight each other.
Between you and me, there are actually opportunities to put the defenses of both sides to a certain degree.
Under the fast pace of the game between the two sides, Liverpool's offense is still the first to complete and bear fruit.
Moreno made an accelerated breakthrough on the left, forcing Deulofeu to make a foul, creating a free kick on the left for the team.
Although the ball is too far from the goal, too far to the left, it can't threaten to hit the goal directly.
But facing the Everton centre-back, Jagilka and Mori, a combination of old and one young, Liverpool are in the penalty area, excluding Lukaku, still occupying a certain overall advantage of.
Yang Feng and Skrtel are Liverpool’s biggest threats in setting kicks, plus Firmino and Milner ~lightnovelpub.net~ still have a certain header threat.
Lukaku is responsible for marking Yang Feng, while Skrtel is marked by veteran Jagilka.
Every matchup with a player like Lukaku is a huge test for Yang Feng.
Players at this level have confrontations, mobility, and height. They can form a full match with Yang Feng, but there are not many players in football.
In fact, compared to the confrontation ability, Benteke sitting on Liverpool's bench is actually stronger than Lukaku.
Also at the center position, Benteke’s physical strength is definitely stronger than Lukaku in terms of contention. However, what restricts Benteke’s strength is his mobility and poor flexibility. , And the technical capabilities are slightly rough.
makes Benteke unable to create the same comprehensive influence as Lukaku in terms of comprehensiveness.
Speaking of returning to the game, Lukaku will defend Yang Feng alone in the set ball. It will indeed cause a huge interference to Yang Feng's header.
While Coutinho sent a set ball, he was still obsessed with finding Yang Feng, but under the influence of Lukaku, he pushed the ball out of the penalty area.
"Lukaku makes a header."
"Henderson, take control of the second point."
"A wonderful pass!"
"Milner!"
"Insert in place!"
"Cross across to the door!"
"Yang Feng!"
"The ball is in!"
"The ball is in!"
"Liverpool broke the deadlock on the court!"
