Football’s First Defender

In previous matches, Yang Feng would indeed show his excellent judgment ability and powerful control over his body in a non-physical confrontation environment when defending the opponent's long pass when counterattacking, according to different situations on the field!

On more than one occasion, when defending the opponent’s long pass, Yang Feng used the accelerated backward take-off action to face the incoming ball in the air, and used an action similar to a basketball court’s backward jumper to face the incoming ball. Interception!

But like today’s game, I only glanced at the pass at the beginning, sprinted at full speed with his back facing the ball, and then continued to jump forward directly in the sprint state, completely relying on the judgment of the starting point. , And finally forcibly bumped into and forcibly destroyed the ball that should have been impossible to reach with a high probability. This kind of personal supernatural performance was rarely seen in previous matches of Yang Feng!

Before, Yang Feng gave people the impression that he was stable, not out of line, and didn't have any particularly fancy moves!

They all use the most practical moves in the game to complete their defensive work! The ball that can be controlled will never make mistakes! For the uncontrollable ball, I also try to choose other ways to make up. I will restrict my opponent's next offensive action by standing, instead of blindly and unnecessary jumps and tops like some defenders!

When Yang Feng took off just now, Hiddink didn't know from the sidelines, why Yang Feng was fighting for a ball, which was obviously impossible for ordinary people to win!

According to Yang Feng's choice in the past, this time will definitely be a desperate chase. Whether Torres makes a mistake in unloading the ball will not be in charge of Yang Feng, but Yang Feng must be desperate to chase back in accordance with the expectation of having a chance to defend!

This time, Hiddink used what stimulated Yang Feng, or Yang Feng was in the UEFA Champions League knockouts, the arena was tense, and his judgment was wrong. He thought he would witness Yang Feng’s fall for the first time, but he did not expect Yang Feng to use this way of relief. , Helped the team resolve a dangerous counterattack from the opponent!

There was not much time left in the half of the game. In fact, not only was the audience watching the match from the sidelines marveling at Yang Feng's actions, but even many players on the field were surprised by Yang Feng's momentary relief action. !

Although the game continued after the serve, the players on both sides did not have the strength and the mind to fight for the last 2 minutes of the game!

With the referee's whistle, the half-time game ended, Liverpool and Chelsea at Anfield Stadium, the half-time battle became a 1-1 draw!

During the intermission, Benitez and Hiddink just continued to let the players stick to their own tactics. In this level of competition, I want to use one or two substitutions to crack the opponent’s tactics. It's not very realistic either!

Of course, Liverpool really has no strong players to change, and Chelsea Hiddink doesn't want to change into a too conservative lineup! In fact, for Chelsea, if two defensive players are really replaced, it might be possible to limit Liverpool's attack on the away game, guard the next 1-1 draw, and return to Stamford Bridge with an away goal!

If it was the time when Mourinho led the team before, in this case, Mikel must be replaced in the second half to partner with Essien's double midfielder, and even an additional central defender, 5 defenders are possible. Then defend the away game, return to the home court, and then defend 0 to 0, everything is mainly defensive, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, there is a high probability that Liverpool will be eliminated!

It’s just that Hiddink’s football philosophy is of course different from Mourinho. Although Chelsea has perhaps the best midfield defensive lineup in Europe, for Hiddink, he doesn’t think Chelsea’s offensive strength is much in his heart. difference!

Since you can increase your offensive strength on the basis of a solid defense, why not? You know, in the Champions League, defense can take the team farther, but defense may not necessarily bring the final championship!

In the past few years, Mourinho's Chelsea have always suffered from defensive problems at critical moments in the Champions League, and all kinds of tragic losses in the Champions League!

The reason is that no matter how strong the defense is, it is impossible to guarantee that 90 minutes will be a bronze wall and an iron wall. People will be tired. No matter how strong the defensive lineup is, the opponent will be looser. Stronger, the more superstars there are, there are too many people who can solve defensive problems with their instant offensive performance. Chelsea have suffered countless such losses in recent years!

Once Chelsea show a slightly conservative lineup and suddenly fall behind on the field, the previous slightly monotonous offensive routine will be directly targeted by the opponent. Although there are several world-class attackers in Chelsea, in the Champions League, when the opponent is also the world's top defense, in the game, Chelsea's strong attack is at a disadvantage most of the time!

Therefore, even if Hiddink has only been a "fire fighting" coach for half a year, he still has to strengthen Chelsea's offense, design more outstanding offensive routines, and prepare for the Champions League and the FA Cup two contestable cups!

Hiddink’s goal of building the team is to maintain Chelsea’s defensive level as much as possible. Of course, because of the decline in the number of defenders, it is certainly not guaranteed to be as solid as the previous seasons, but it must also be maintained at the top level in Europe. Other teams are a little stronger, and can still rely on defense to put a lot of pressure on the opposing offense!

On the offensive end, it depends on changes in personnel, targeted tactical choices, and greater offensive autonomy for several midfielders to achieve an excellent output level!

Before Mourinho’s era, it was because it had too much control over the players, even for offensive players, it also made many restrictions, and did not maximize the players’ offensive talents, and offensive players have to bear considerable Defensive mission! In the previous half of the season, Scolari was a bit obsessed with his tactical philosophy. He just urged to buy his favorite players in a vague way, instead of using the Chelsea team in light of the actual situation of Chelsea. Existing personnel in!

Hiddink is to use today's seemingly flawed offensive lineup to create an offensive and defensive team that is equally good!

This UEFA Champions League game is the moment for Hiddink to verify the results of Chelsea's transformation! Although this offensive tactic will not be Chelsea’s main offensive routine in the future, the success of this tactic can help Hiddink to verify whether he can really control the team and continue to implement his own coaching philosophy. , Can players continue to obey their orders and convince themselves!

The second half of the game started very quickly, and neither team changed their personnel during the intermission!

For Hiddink and Benitez, in the second half he will allow the team to attack according to tactics!

It depends on the players of both sides, which one can grasp the opportunity better!

Chelsea insists on the principle of making set-pieces under the premise of continuing to do a good job in their defense!

Malouda and Kalu simply pulled to the wing in the second half, which is to constantly create cross opportunities on the offensive end. Since Drogba has been waiting for the opportunity in the penalty area, in order to limit Drogba, but also To prevent the clearance error, Chelsea caught a second attack opportunity, Liverpool had to send a lot of corner kick opportunities!

Although during the intermission, Benitez focused on warning the defense and must give the opponent some free kicks and corner kicks, but Chelsea suddenly played a wide pass, and the suppressing power outside the penalty area was not bad. For the stability of the defense, the Liverpool players had to give up some corner kicks!

This release, but it hit Chelsea's arms!

"Only 5 minutes into the second half of the game, Chelsea attacked Liverpool on the wing!"

"Without too much tactical cooperation, it is to use the personal ability of Kalu or Malouda to get rid of the defender directly on the wing and after winning the passing space, it is to immediately pass the ball to the penalty area!"

"If you can't get rid of it for a while, either the Chelsea midfielder will immediately pull the side to pass, or simply, both full-backs will plug in at the right time and pass into the penalty area 45 degrees after receiving the ball!"

"Chelsea, using this monotonous, but practical tactic, in the opening five minutes, this is already the third corner kick!"

Although Chelsea's height occupies the advantage, the advantage is the advantage. After all, the football field is not a basketball court. Whenever there is a chance of dislocation, it can easily transfer the ball to a strong point! Let the big one have the opportunity and space to give full play to their height!

Chelsea's height advantage is not likely to show up or be found every set-kick round!

After all, in such a fierce Champions League game, the players who have been running can not control their physical functions for a long time and their state is perfect!

For the Chelsea players who serve the corner kick, it would be good if they could guarantee an approximate landing area. You may let the players, the landing position of each corner kick, follow the tactics and pass to the position exactly!

Therefore, at this time, Liverpool’s advantage in the number of people in the penalty area is revealed. In the Chelsea corner kick tactics, the Liverpool players, under the emphasis of Benitez’s intermission, this time firmly fixed every penalty area. The Chelsea players inside watch, and there are surplus manpower, go to the area!

Liverpool used the greatest defensive investment to contain Chelsea's set-kick tactics!

Especially for Ivanovic who scored in the first half of the game, Benitez knew that he could not use his players who are good at headers and give up the real headers of Chelsea. He can only continue with Harvey Alonso. Come follow him!

But Benitez can let other players, especially those who are in charge of the area, when Chelsea look for Ivanovic, hurry up to help defend and win by number!

After all, Ivanovic is a tall full-back. Benitez does not think that he can be like Drogba, like those central defenders who compete for the header all the time, and always guarantee his header status. Hit the door level!

Just limit it, Ivanovic’s take-off, there should not be such a big threat!

"Malouda, corner kick on the right!"

"Several Chelsea players, this time are standing in the middle, gathered together!"

"After the corner kick was issued, all the Chelsea players suddenly scattered in all directions, which greatly affected the follow-up of Liverpool's defenders!"

"Chelsea's corner kick tactics and the positions of the players in the penalty area are different every time. It seems that Hiddink has prepared for the set kick before the game!"

"The coach from the Netherlands can always use some special tactics to beat the opponent's softness. It seems that in today's game, Hiddink is ready to hit the ball all the way to the end, trying to let the players work in the air. Beat the opponent to death!"

"This time the corner kick, it seems to be looking forward!"

Before the corner kick, the players gathered together to form a gathering tactic to break the opponent's man-to-man defense, so that Liverpool's defense cannot form a system, and even man-to-man may not catch up in the first time!

It's just that such a position has a drawback for the offensive side, UU reading www.uukanshu. The com is the person who serves the corner kick. He can only pass the ball after he finishes it according to the tactical reservation. However, his teammates who are in charge of the fight may be blocked by others, or they cannot judge the position and adjust well during the running. Body, complete the preparations for the header in a short year!

However, Chelsea is Yang Feng again!

"Yang Feng! Directly rushed to the front point! The position of this corner kick tactic is specially created for Yang Feng's personal ability!"

"Kuyt, did not hesitate. When Yang Feng ran out, he already followed closely. As Chelsea's best header point, even if Yang Feng's body is not so strong, he was still beaten by Benitez. Considered a big threat!"

"Leaving the set-piece to defend, Kuyt, who is fairly good, will follow the defense!"

Yang Feng is using his fastest speed, rushing forward! No way, Malouda is out of shape for this pass. Although in pursuit of the effectiveness and threat of the pass, this pass flies extremely fast and is aimed at the forward point, but this pass is The arc did not pull away, causing the ball to be at the front point, and some too far forward!

In Yang Feng's calculations, even though he could barely touch this ball, he was still a little joking if he wanted to complete a good quality goal!

However, hurry up and run to the position, but you can still get a good "second pass"!

"Yang Feng! Some cats headed forward! The ball did not directly and meaninglessly choose to hit the goal, but to the goal in the penalty area!"

"In the middle of the penalty zone! It's Ivanovic again! Under the chaos, with only Harvey Alonso around him, Ivanovic jumped high and headed the goal!"

"GOAL!"

"Chelsea overtook the score!"
