Football’s First Defender
Chapter 657: Set kick
Although, at the last moment of the first half, Crystal Palace still took advantage of the last wave of threatening attacks, but the Liverpool players who were awakened from a dream defended it and kept the score of 0 to 1 until the end of the first half. .
During the intermission, the atmosphere in Liverpool's locker room was obviously a little serious.
One goal behind the opponent at home and the team's suppressive power has not been fully played out, which made Klopp very angry and made the Liverpool players feel full of powerlessness for the poor game results in the first half.
It's useless to say more. For Liverpool players, they can only stand up to Klopp's roar and find a way to maximize the performance in the second half of the game to try to reverse the game.
In response to the players' physical problems, Liverpool's physical coaches have already prepared a large amount of food and drinks that can replenish energy to ensure that the players can have a better physical support in the second half.
Klopp’s requirements for the game are very simple. He must show his team spirit in the second half, and he must not be at home to disappoint the fans.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Liverpool, who had recovered a certain amount of physical fitness during the intermission, began to reinvest a large number of offensive players on the offensive end.
If it is said that in the first half of the game, when Liverpool was attacking in the early stage, there was some usual heart to deal with the game and not anxious. At this time, the team is behind and Liverpool’s offense has truly achieved the maximum horsepower.
Not only the midfielders and the frontcourt players, they also participated in the offense to a large extent in the game.
The two full-backs, also under the request of Klopp, began to participate more in the offense, providing the team with more repressive offense.
It's just that, although the Crystal Palace players are not good at putting up a defensive lineup, their advantage in athletic ability still allows them to have a strong defensive control in the game.
is to rely on the active running of the players to complete various defensive arrangements.
Liverpool’s positional attack, even with the participation of a large number of offensive players, there is still no way to play the best offensive effect.
The team's wing breakthrough, or the passing of the penetration ball, under the close defense of the opponent, there is no good chance at all.
And Liverpool can’t keep up with their opponents. Although Crystal Palace’s running like this may expose the greatest degree of physical problems in the final moments of the game, the Liverpool players, after experiencing the powerlessness at the end of the first half, also I'm not sure about my physical stamina, whether I can hold on to the end of the game and maintain a fierce offensive.
And the team is behind, after all, to score early, so that the team does not have to worry at the last moment, so as not to make more mistakes.
Liverpool’s offensive wave after wave, for Klopp, the instructions to the team to go down are very simple, that is, treat every minute as the last moment of the game, and launch an offensive desperately in order to get a quick score. ball.
besieged for 15 minutes, but Liverpool still failed to break the gate of the visiting team.
This also allowed Klopp to make substitution adjustments quickly.
In recent games, Benteke, who played well off the bench, once again came up as a firefighter.
Recently, due to the physical problems of the main lineup and the failure of rapid development of new tactics, Klopp has used Benteke a lot. He wants to use Benteke’s characteristics as much as possible to provide the team with Richer offensive play.
With Benteke as the fulcrum in front, Liverpool's space activities behind Benteke have indeed increased the threat of attack.
And it is no longer a monotonous pass-cutting cooperation. After using the player's personal breakthrough, and then inserting some appropriate wing passes, it is indeed a big test for the defensive line of Crystal Palace.
With Benteke such a high point in the penalty area, Liverpool's flank pillings have also increased.
The increase in the proportion of wing attacks has also given Liverpool a greater chance of getting a set kick.
With Benteke’s appearance, Liverpool are now fighting for the top spot. Yang Feng and Benteke both have super strengths, and the abilities of Scotter, Milner, Firmino and others are not too bad. .
It can be said that with Benteke's appearance, Liverpool's chances of positioning the ball will be more converted into threatening shot opportunities.
After Benteke's first corner kick, Liverpool created a murderous opportunity in the frontcourt.
Before Coutinho's corner kick was issued, many Liverpool attacking players scattered around the penalty area.
In fact, this spreading is an illusion. After Coutinho gave a corner kick, Yang Feng and Benteke both turned back and rushed to the center.
Liverpool’s two people who are best at headers at the same time took off and competed for the top in the middle area, which made Crystal Palace’s defense. Although it was the first time to get to the landing area this time, it is still difficult to form a defensive interference with the two. .
Especially the distance between Yang Feng and Benteke is not too far, so that under the mutual dependence, Crystal Palace players want to interfere with multiple people, there is no room for that.
Although the two central defenders of the visiting team have tried their best to complete this defense.
However, Liverpool’s sudden corner kick routine disrupted the defensive rhythm.
This ball, due to Coutinho's passing power, was slightly larger, but Yang Feng, who was a little further behind, directly hit it.
Yang Feng leaped high, pressing the opponent's center back, and pushing out a rebound ball from top to bottom.
For goalkeepers, among all the shots, the most difficult thing to defend is to rebound the ball.
Because in a professional game, it is very rare for the goalkeeper to be able to determine the direction of the goal in an instant, and within this time ~lightnovelpub.net~ to determine the height of the rebound and the possibility of a second time. The direction to change is really too difficult.
The rebound ball from Yang Feng directly walked past the away team goalkeeper who made the save and successfully equalized the score for the team.
Yang Feng’s header was like a horn for Liverpool's counter-attack goal in the second half.
Liverpool’s advantage in set kicks began to show to the greatest extent.
Even though the Crystal Palace players are not weak in their ability to compete for the top, their defensive record and alertness are obviously not as good as those of the strong teams.
In the 73rd minute of the game, with a "screen" provided by Yang Feng, Benteke easily got rid of the defender, and at a slightly forward position, in another corner kick, he easily completed the front-point and close-corner header. .
Got the score for Liverpool.
Liverpool regained the lead, and the subsequent games will be easier to play.
Crystal Palace players have consumed a lot of physical energy in the early stage of the game. When the physical ability of the late game is unsustainable, they have to fight hard to tie the score.
The result was naturally on the defensive end. Yang Feng continued to play steadily, using his excellent supplementary defense and anticipation ability to block most of the opponent’s offense, while Liverpool was on the counter-attack, Coutinho scored a goal, let The visiting team players were desperate and completely sealed the victory.
3 to 1, Liverpool completed a 3-goal reversal in the second half and had a difficult winning streak...
