Football’s First Defender
Chapter 664: Yang Feng in the state
No one thought that after a week of rest, Liverpool, who seemed to be full of spirits and energetic, would suffer a stubborn resistance from the relegation zone team Newcastle in this away game.
Klopp’s formation has actually paid great attention to the protection of the team’s back line. He also tried his best to defensively while limiting the opponent’s offensive advancement. However, he still did not expect that the home team Newcastle would use In this way, there is no "technical content", and the ball is constantly hitting Liverpool's defense line, and then it really threatened with "the blind cat hit the dead mouse" and completed the goal.
"Calm down! What's more during the game time is that we still have a chance. It will be good if everyone comes back patiently!"
At this time, as the captain of the team, Yang Feng, before kick-off, worked hard to communicate with his teammates and did the job of cheering them up.
The team's momentum must not be lost. Liverpool still has a lot of time to tie or even overtake the score.
Now, for Liverpool, the priority is the team’s offensive organization and the fight for possession. The game cannot be played in the rhythm of Newcastle.
Aiming at Newcastle, there is no tactical long pass. Liverpool's frontcourt is pressing and starting to no longer invest so many players, but to further deploy defensive forces to ensure the number of defenders in the backcourt and the defensive coverage.
Later, after building a more stable defense and regaining the ball, Liverpool must patiently push forward, then organize the attack in the center and front, and try to create better scoring opportunities in the attack.
It's just that the home team Newcastle is just like a **** hit today.
Amid the cheering of the home fans, the Newcastle players all rushed to the top and played very aggressively in the game.
In the face of Liverpool's attack, it is no longer the only way to lay out an iron bucket to wait for Liverpool's attack.
Instead, in the game, directly imitating Liverpool's previous play and launching a fierce midfield siege, but it gave Liverpool itself a considerable impact.
Perhaps the Newcastle players, in terms of speed, flexibility, and teamwork, are unable to be like Liverpool players. In the game, they raised the center and frontcourt to a strategic height, creating considerable restrictions for their opponents. .
However, Newcastle players have better physical confrontation capabilities. They can use their confrontation abilities more in the frontcourt to carry out collisions. Although they may sometimes be called fouls by the referee, they are also Completely disrupt the attacking rhythm of Liverpool players.
One of the possible advantages of the home game is that Newcastle players, as long as the foul action is not too big, the referee will not take out a yellow card or even give a verbal warning, blow the foul, and give the ball back to Liverpool. Quite fair and just.
Under the referee's "connivance", the Newcastle-style frontcourt press tactics did cause considerable interference to Liverpool's offense, causing Liverpool's planned counterattack to come to an abrupt end.
Liverpool’s offense can only be based on passing and controlling and making more use of the players’ personal abilities to start the offensive end.
Such an offensive attempt at an unconventional rhythm makes the Liverpool players, in fact, not as comfortable as they used to be.
There are not many threatening opportunities for Liverpool in the frontcourt. The most threatening attack in the first half was a corner kick.
Yang Feng once again played his role as an all-around central defender in the game, giving the team considerable help on the offensive end.
This time Coutinho looked for a pass to Yang Feng. Yang Feng still forced the car to complete the jump while the two were double-defensively, pressing the two to complete the header fight.
It's just that, after all, it is the defense of two people one after the other, no matter how strong Yang Feng is, he can't resist the second and top the high-quality shot.
Although the ball was indeed played on the right, but under the interference of the defender, the football that Yang Feng played on top was actually slightly blocked by the defender’s head for the first time, the route was changed, and the speed and strength of the ball were unloaded. Most of the time, let the home team goalkeeper on the goal line, a side throw, and easily grab the ball.
When Liverpool failed to attack for a long time, it was Newcastle's counterattack and began to play vigorously.
Before the end of the first half, Newcastle almost rewrote the score.
Lallana made a breakthrough with the ball in the middle, and after a brutal collision from a side Newcastle player, the referee did not call a foul.
allows Newcastle players to dribble the ball forward to counterattack directly after successfully completing the defense.
This time Newcastle made a sudden counterattack. Instead of a long pass directly to find the teammate in front, he made continuous passes on the ground.
Everyone knows that Yang Feng is good at defending long passes. Although Newcastle usually counterattacks, there is no good chance to get on the ground, so he has no choice but to simply choose long passes.
But at the end of the first half, it was obvious that the interception ability of the Liverpool midfielders had declined. This time the Newcastle players took the ground and achieved quite good results.
The three people who crossed the midfield line took the ball in a row, and instantly pushed the ball from the penalty area line to the midfield area, and then Sheldon sent a long through ball directly in the midfield and found the right. road.
Yang Feng competed with Cisse for speed ~lightnovelpub.net~ but was overtaken by Cisse directly outside.
There is no way, this is pure speed advantage, Cisse will not give Yang Feng a chance to fight physically.
After getting a penetrating pass from Shervey from the outside, Cisse accelerated into the Liverpool penalty area.
Yang Feng saw that there was no way to stop Cisse from the outside, and he could only use his full strength to accelerate straight back into the penalty area.
Yang Feng achieved his fastest speed and rushed back into the penalty area. Although he was still a step slower than Cisse, he still achieved the best he could.
He will not give up.
After Cisse caught up with the through ball, he dribbled the ball diagonally and went straight into Liverpool's penalty area from the side.
Facing Mignolet's attack, Cisse, who was already single-handedly, was obviously not confident of completing the goal while traveling at high speed.
Instead, choose to slow down, make adjustments, and prevent the ball from being destroyed by the attacking Minholet.
"good chance!"
Yang Feng watched Cisse’s slowing down and adjusted his attacking rhythm, knowing that he had returned to defense at full speed and was not in vain.
"Cissy! Hit the door!"
"But... Yang Feng's emergence was too timely."
"A sliding tackle from the back side accurately kicked the ball out before Cisse hit the goal."
"After being slid by Yang Feng, Cisse, who fell to the ground, asked the referee for a penalty but was ignored."
"Yang Feng, with an excellent recovery, completed the defense this time without allowing Newcastle to expand the score again."
