Football’s First Defender

Chapter 705: Liverpool's offensive

   It can only be said that Yang Feng's excellent personal defense allowed Liverpool to show a strong defensive ability on the defensive end of this game.

You know, the threat of Atletico’s counterattack today is actually not small. On the contrary, Atletico dared to invest more troops on the counterattack today. The frontcourt players are also in the game. It can be said that they have played a few times quite wonderfully. The frontcourt counterattack coordination.

   This is going to be aside from the usual game, Atletico Madrid may have scored a goal long ago, and can safely set the barrels and retract to defend.

   However, Yang Feng used his excellent defensive performance to be on the back line again and again, becoming Liverpool's most critical defensive link.

   Not only a variety of offensive players that restrict Atletico Madrid's frontline, such as Greezman or Vietto.

   All kinds of fills, intercepting passes, are completely showing his defensive ability comprehensively and effectively.

   It is precisely because of Yang Feng's guard that Atletico has been unable to achieve the goal of an away goal.

   For Atletico players, in the case of unsuccessful offense, it is natural to prioritize defensive preparations in the game, defend Liverpool’s offense, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

   Liverpool, after a long period of unsuccessful attack, made substitution adjustments.

   Klopp will continue to strengthen the team's offense.

   Milner, who started the game today, ran back and forth on the offensive end and the defensive end due to a wide range of movements before, and was replaced by the team's high center forward Benteke due to physical problems.

   For Benteke, this is his first appearance in the Champions League knockout stage.

   As a professional player, in today's club competitions, on the top stage, there is an opportunity to express himself, which makes Benteke very excited.

   Even though the game time, there is actually less than 30 minutes of game time left, but for Benteke, it is enough to show his outstanding high center strength on the court.

   Klopp doesn't like the slightly tall and bulky Benteke, which is nothing new.

   For Benteke, he needs more time to play.

   There is no place to stay here.

   Benteke has done enough off the bench this season.

   Even though Liverpool may not have their place under Klopp's coaching, Benteke believes that his strength lies here.

   He believes that other teams will take over next season.

   After all, with the issuance of the Bosman Act, "loyalty" in the football world is not so easy.

  Liverpool will not be troubled with money. If a team is willing to pay the price to buy Benteke, Liverpool will still sell it.

   After successfully defending a wave of Liverpool offensive, Atletico Madrid immediately launched a wave of offense.

   Gabi directly sent a long pass from the midfield to the top and wanted to cross Liverpool's defense and hit Liverpool directly into the penalty area.

   However, Yang Feng still played with his stable defense, chose a good position, and successfully blocked the ball.

   Yang Feng's defensive selection, in the face of such a long pass, still maintains a high success rate, and even Yang Feng can control the ball's clearance to the area he wants.

   directly used the header to push the ball back to his teammate in the midfield area, Coutinho's feet.

   It's just that after Yang Feng finished his header, he still found that he had some support.

   The habit of playing in the usual leagues is not so easy to change consciously when facing opponents of different leagues and styles.

   In accordance with the usual rhythm of the game, in order to pursue the efficiency of the team's counterattack, Yang Feng gave the ball to the midfielder Coutinho.

   After receiving the ball, Coutinho can directly launch a counterattack.

   But today, Liverpool are facing Atletico.

   Atletico's defensive grabbing ability is very good, even better than Liverpool's grabbing.

   After all, Liverpool relies on the running ability of the players, and it relies on Klopp's tactical arrangement.

   But Atletico's top grab, was also injected with a spirit of iron and blood, a defensive attitude that engraved defense in the bones.

   When Yang Feng topped the ball, Atletico Madrid's defensive players had already quickly applied defensive pressure to the spot.

   Just as Coutinho unloaded the ball, he was immediately robbed by Atletico Madrid players.

This time, Saúl did not even give Coutinho any room for adjustment. As soon as the ball was dropped to the ground, or even before it reached the ground, Saúl had already leaned on his body and stabbed the ball directly. Came out.

   Atletico Madrid’s frontcourt can constantly grab the ball, and it is extremely efficient and fast. This is even more powerful than Liverpool’s frontcourt counter grab.

   Although Liverpool is now gradually recovering its form, it still has the strength of a European first-tier team.

   But when the two teams have similar playing styles, it is clear that Atletico is more focused on some defenses, while Liverpool is more biased towards offense.

   After Saul pushed the ball out again, he must not forcefully choose to take the ball forward, because then under Coutinho's chase and defense by other Liverpool players, the ball may be lost.

   Instead, he retreats to advance, and he buckles the ball directly to the back and finds the forward Gabi not far behind.

   Gaby didn't stop the ball and missed any time. He directly passed the ball diagonally to the right and found Griezmann.

Griezman made a stop and then drove the ball diagonally to the front left, but only after attracting the attention of Liverpool defenders, he took two steps and immediately passed the ball short distance with his left foot. Avoid dribbling the ball by yourself, being directly attacked by the Liverpool player to defend, fight the ball hard and intercept it.

   Bietto in the middle, after receiving this pass from Griezmann, he immediately understood.

   Atletico's offense has always relied on three aspects to score goals.

   Position-kick tactics have always been Mahjong's strengths, and it is an excellent opportunity for Atletico Madrid to score goals.

   Another aspect is the team's ability to counterattack.

In the case of the opponent's main attack or lead, whether it is a counter-grab on the spot, the offensive opportunity obtained in high position pressure, or the team's overall defense in the backcourt, the opportunity found according to the loopholes in the opponent's back line, They all allow Atletico Madrid to score a lot of goals in the game.

  The last aspect is the team's excellent frontcourt coordination ability on the offensive end.

   Today's Atletico Madrid midfielder, after losing the original striker Diego Costa, was immediately transformed by Simeone into an offensive combination of Xiaoling.

   In order to maximize the offensive capabilities of the players, Simeone gave the frontcourt players greater decentralization in the positional attack, allowing them to give full play to their personal abilities, especially the speed advantage, to achieve offensive effects.

  Bietto's ball directly leaned against the defending player with his back, kept the ball, and swiped the ball to the right.

   again set the ball to the front of Griezmann's path.

   Griezmann, in the process of diagonally forward, after completing the pass, but still accelerating on the path.

The Liverpool defensive player, after Griezmann completed this pass, was slightly relaxed about his defense, which directly caused Griezmann to throw away after Bietto completed the score. With Henderson's defense, after receiving the ball, he can directly penetrate into Liverpool's penalty area.

Fortunately, Yang Feng reacted quickly. This time, Yang Feng was at the last position of the defense line. He quickly made up the defense from within the penalty area. He directly made a sliding tackle. When Griezmann just received the ball, he was directly attacked. Completed the steal and lost the ball.

   Yang Feng shoveled the ball to the right wing, Klein took the ball directly after receiving the ball and launched the attack.

It’s just that Clay’s attack on the right side didn’t feel much pressure before passing midfield, but after passing through the midfield area, he suffered from Atletico Madrid and was very well organized. Defense.

   Not only did players put defensive pressure on Klein with the ball, but even the passing route that Klein might find was blocked by Atletico Madrid players in advance.

   In this quick counterattack, what Klein was after was also a quick offense.

   had no idea of ​​reorganizing the offense. Seeing Firmino running ahead, Klein sent a long through ball directly from the side.

   This pass is a great opportunity, but a defensive old fritter like Godin will not make such a big mistake.

Choosing a good position ahead of time jammed Firmino’s forward line to catch the ball. Godin’s purpose is very simple. It is to keep a close eye on Firmino. As for the clearance of the incoming ball, naturally there are other Teammates come to complete defensive tasks.

   Felipe successfully intercepted Klein’s pass, and immediately passed the ball to the midfield position. Atletico Madrid counterattacked again.

   However, when Atletico Madrid passed the ball to the hinterland of Liverpool, they were also guarded by Liverpool. There was no easy opportunity to complete an effective attack in the game.

   The two teams have truly achieved defensive end, each can make excellent defensive performance, and most of the opponent's offense has become invisible.

   Fight in midfield?

   exists, but it does not seem to exist.

The reason for the existence of    is that most of the football time is indeed within the midfield, and the two sides exchange the ball back and forth.

The reason why    does not exist is, after all, neither side has really played a large-scale fight in the middle.

   The transition time of the ball of both sides is almost always done when there is an idea and want to launch an attack.

   In this time period of 15 to 30 minutes, Liverpool and Atletico Madrid have achieved the ultimate in their defense.

  The two sides added up, in these 15 minutes, all the audience on the scene, as well as the audience in front of the TV, dedicated a wonderful defensive battle.

   The defenders of the two teams are very effective in guarding the 30-meter area of ​​their respective teams. As long as the offensive player of which team is "killing", the corresponding defender will use excellent defensive skills to eliminate the threat invisible.

   During this period, Yang Feng continued his outstanding performance in this game.

   It is true that Griezmann has speed and technology, but facing Yang Feng's defense, Griezmann is destined to have no good way to find attacking opportunities easily.

   Yang Feng's replenishment choice always directly destroyed Griezmann's offense just right. Today, Yang Feng once again showed what an insurmountable defense is.

   Of course, Yang Feng showed great power on this side, and Atletico on the other side also responded by relying on the overall defense.

   Atletico's offense was originally not hard enough in the lineup, and it was normal to be restricted.

   But Liverpool’s frontcourt offensive combination is definitely better than Atletico Madrid in terms of the players’ overall offensive strength and tactical drill level. However, there is no good way to play in front of Atletico’s defense.

   The rhythm of the game suddenly fell into a slow state, but the game is 90 minutes, the charm of football is that you don’t know in which second, huge changes will occur on the field.

   When the pace has slowed down, Liverpool is at home after all, and the team still has a certain advantage in possession rate, which also gives Liverpool the initiative to attack.

   The game situation is so dull, it is definitely not what the players want to see. They need a fast-paced attack to score goals and win at home.

   The boring game between the two sides before, for the Liverpool players, is more like a wave of physical storage in the game, and then release it with all strength.

   After 30 minutes, Liverpool players took the lead to speed up the pace of the game.

   Liverpool continued to maintain the slow attacking state before, but suddenly Yang Feng, who broke through to the midfield position with the ball, directly sent a long pass to the left.

   After the ball landed, Coutinho accurately found the foot of the fast forward Coutinho, and Coutinho took the ball directly into the penalty area.

   This sudden wave of Liverpool's effort ~lightnovelpub.net~ really caught Atletico Madrid's defense by surprise. After Coutinho finished the pass, it was Firmino who followed up in the middle.

   Firmino just threw himself out, and wanted to finish this time grabbing points in front of the door.

   Firmino did finish the shot, but he faced Oblak.

   There is no fancy action, it is a very solid save action.

  Oblak reacted, facing Firmino's close-range grab and hit the goal, still blocking the shooting route with his extended right hand...

   After the ball was blocked by Atletico's goalkeeper Oblak, it bounced back to Godin's feet. Godin directly sent a long-distance pass to find the teammate who had already started counterattack.

   Kirk received a pass from Godin in the midfield and then saw Griezman running further ahead.

After    passed the ball in place, Cork had no other thoughts. The first time he passed the ball.

   In response to the Liverpool player's failure to return to the defense, Cork directly sent a long-distance ground pass to find Liverpool's defense after this attack.

   Cork's pass is very penetrating and directly penetrates Liverpool's defense.

   Yang Feng wanted to intercept, but in the face of a fast through ball, there was no way.

   The ball leaked, and then how about people? Also missed!

   is not to say that the missing person this time is a problem with Liverpool's defensive choice.

   is Griezmann's fast enough forward, who specifically presses your offside line to play his own anti-offside tactics.
