Football’s First Defender

Corner kick tactics, for Atletico Madrid, in La Liga are one of their best offensive scoring methods, and it is also their artifact.

However, in the Champions League, when facing Liverpool, they obviously have some advantages.

Yang Feng directly confronted Godin to ensure that the player who threatened the greatest positional kick in the Atletico Madrid lineup was directly watched to death by himself and undermined Atletico's core player in corner kick tactics.

Godin is unable to turn the tide in the opponent's penalty area, which means that for Atletico, it has lost the biggest corner kick.

In the case of Atletico Madrid playing one more person, it is natural to start to attack.

Felipe Luiz on the left is particularly active.

As the starting point of Atletico Madrid's left-sided attack, Felipe Luiz almost no longer retreated to the half, but in the game, has been in the Liverpool half, launched an attack.

Felipe Luiz’s offense is very creative.

Not only can he launch a wing breakthrough on the offensive end, but also can directly act as an organizer to send a pass directly to the middle area on the wing.

Felipe Luiz, just after half-time, took the ball on the left side and looked for the ball directly to the center area.

Felipe chose to pass the ball with a straight pass and shortly passed the ball to Oliver Torres in the middle.

It's just that Oliver Torres, this time offensively, patronized the move forward, but some did not pay attention. Felipe's goal turned out to be directly towards him.

After seeing Felipe's pass, Oliver Torres wanted to adjust the ball in motion, but there was no good way to directly adjust his body shape.

Turned around to catch the ball, did not stop, the ball was leaked.

Lucas hit the ball and kicked the ball forward.

However, Lucas chose to take the ball in such a situation, but he did not make a clearance too far.

Under such circumstances, Lucas did not play far.

It can only be said that when Lucas was in a hurry when handling the ball, there was no way to kick the ball out.

In this case, for the game, Lucas's clearance ball was still intercepted by Cork.

After Cork intercepted the ball, he passed the ball forward.

After Cork made a stop on the spot this time, he quickly delivered the ball and passed the ball directly to the front left and directly into the left penalty area.

Cork chose to connect directly with forward Torres.

Torres moved forward quickly, wanted to catch the ball, and made a threat directly in the penalty area.

But Yang Feng's sudden shot was directly on the passing route, and he jumped high and directly pushed the ball out.

Although Torres's forward penetration was very coquettish, Yang Feng couldn't pursue it, but Yang Feng directly targeted the ball. There was only football in his eyes. There was no good way to let Torres run.

If you don't get the ball, no matter how good the chance is, it's nothing.

Yang Feng jumped into the air this time to make a clearance and gave the ball to Klein on the right.

Klein directly drove the ball diagonally to the midfield with his big foot. While he wanted to complete the big-foot clearance, he also wanted to see if he had a chance to let the frontcourt teammates catch the opportunity to complete the counterattack.

After all, although it is 10 to 11, don't people still have dreams? If there is no dream, then what is the difference with salted fish.

10 to 11, although Liverpool lacked players on the lineup, but the counterattack played well, it might be possible to rely on two or three people to play a deadly counterattack effect.

It's just that Klein's kick-off with a big foot obviously has some insights.

When receiving the football from Yang Fengding, Klein felt the Atletico Madrid players rushing to the spot. In the rush, Klein didn't have much time to handle the ball.

So with this kick, I wanted to clear the siege as well as a certain pass threat, but he didn’t even kick his own half.

Gaby grabbed the ball's landing point directly in the midfield, and didn't even waste time stopping the ball. When the ball was falling into the air, he gave the ball to Oliver Torres not far from the front left.

Oliver Torres directly drove the ball forward. After being pressured by Liverpool's defenders, he made a short pass and stabbed the ball directly to Correa before Liverpool's penalty area.

With a small range of cooperation, Atletico Madrid players excellently demonstrated the delicacy of Spanish football.

Correa, who has reached the core area of ​​Liverpool's defense, has no intention of attempting an attack in the face of Yang Feng's defense.

For Atletico, there is not much game time left, and there will not be too many opportunities for Atletico to organize a good attack.

Atletico Madrid should seize every attacking opportunity and strive to score goals, rather than giving opponents better defensive opportunities in the game.

Correa does not want to try Yang Feng's defensive ability. There are already countless people in front of Yang Feng. Yang Feng has successfully completed the defense. Correa does not have to face Yang Feng to prove his strength. What he needs is to do it for the team. Make greater contributions to achieve better offensive effects.

Correa took the ball directly with his right foot, slanted to the left, passed the ball directly to the left, and handed it to Fernando Torres who was on the edge.

Fernando Torres was directly on the left, taking advantage of the Liverpool defensive player not in place, sending a pass.

It's just that the ball is passed directly to the back point, but there is still a big gap between the height of Griezmann and Lovren.

However, Lovren still chose to be on the safe side and pushed the ball directly out of the baseline, giving Atletico Madrid a chance for a corner kick.

Liverpool are in the penalty area and obviously have more high points to compete for football.

So this time, Atletico did not take a direct corner kick, but used a tactical corner kick.

Similar to a "short corner" tactic, the ball was passed directly to Juan Fran who followed up.

After a one to two second delay in the penalty area, Juan Fran sent a pass on the right to re-score the ball into the Liverpool penalty area.

This tactic is to give Atletico Madrid players more running space and running time to try to create opportunities in the penalty area.

It's just that the ball passed to the dense area of ​​Atletico Madrid players, but it still couldn't escape Yang Feng's defense.

Yang Feng leaped high, pressing Godin and pushing the ball directly out of the penalty area.

Coutinho wanted to grab this second point and directly counterattack.

However, Atletico has invested more in the periphery of the penalty area.

Coutinho's press did not hit Gabi, and Gabi took the ball again and passed the ball directly to Felipe Luiz, who was left in the end, to re-enable Atletico Madrid to organize the attack.

Atletico Madrid used the patience to organize the pass and control in the backcourt and re-completed the formation.

After the defensive players who had gone to the top of the penalty zone before, all returned to their positions, Atletico began to organize the offense again, trying to achieve an offensive effect in the game.

Gabi and Cork, double midfielders, have been in the midfield for the ball offensive organization.

Passing the ball continuously to mobilize Liverpool's defense, but the real threat still depends on the two sides.

After Cork broke through, the ball was handed over to Juan Fran on the right.

Facing Moreno's defense, Juan Fran did not rush forward. Instead, he sent the ball forward and passed it to Oliver Torres, who was inserted diagonally forward.

Henderson is closely following the defense, and even Moreno is looking for opportunities to double-defensively against Oliver Torres to limit Atletico's continuous offensive in the dangerous area of ​​the wing.

Oliver Torres, as long as he wants to hit the ball, Moreno will immediately grab the ball and form a double-team with Henderson to try to destroy this attack.

However, for Oliver Torres, in the absence of a good opportunity, blindly sending a cross from the wing may not have much offensive significance under the Liverpool system of three central defenders.

Oliver Torres, once again passed the ball back to Juan Fran, and started offensively.

Atletico Madrid’s offense played very patiently. Juan Fran stopped the ball for 2 seconds, constantly observing the situation on the field, and then sent a pass to the center, still looking for Oliver Torres.

The ability to run without the ball is what Oliver Torres is good at. After sending a pass on the right, Oliver Torres moved directly to the center in the game.

Just run out of a certain gap to create an offensive threat.

Henderson's defense is still close, but this time, Henderson made a mistake in the defensive process.

He thought that Oliver Torres would choose to stop the ball before making further offensive moves.

However, he did not expect that Oliver Torres wanted to stop the ball, but it was a fake action. When the block was really passed to his feet, Oliver Torres chose to give and continue to let the ball move, while he chased sideways. In football, the pursuit of breakthroughs without stopping the ball.

Henderson took a step slower this time, and directly gave up the defense.

Other defensive players in the middle of Liverpool hurried over to make up the defense, but it was too late. Oliver Torres, who adjusted in the movement, seized the slightest gap in Liverpool's defense, and straightened his left foot into the small penalty area. Stuffed.

Griezmann rushed forward directly against offside, on the right side of the small penalty area, after receiving this wonderful pass from Oliver Torres, he shot directly with his right foot to complete the goal.

If it weren't for Liverpool goalkeeper Mignolet, who once again made a smashing shot and blocked the ball on the goal line, for such a close shot, Liverpool's home game might really have to be explained here.

Yang Feng, who was nearby, quickly controlled Mignole’s second landing point after the save, so as not to be given a chance to be shot by his opponent.

To be honest, Yang Feng was in a cold sweat just now.

He didn't expect that Oliver Torres could improvise in midfield by himself and almost broke Liverpool's defense.

Just now, Yang Feng didn't expect the ball to pass. In terms of speed, he couldn't catch up with the sudden explosion of Griezmann. He wanted to intercept the pass but found that some of the defensive distances were not enough to stop the pass.

The defense was not in place for a moment and almost caused the opponent's goal. Fortunately, Mignolet played well today, otherwise it would be really bad for Liverpool to lose a goal at home.

Yang Feng quickly cleared the ball to the left.

Moreno still has the energy to run out, try to control the falling point and fight back.

However, Atletico Madrid players rely on their number advantages to control the perimeter. It is actually very easy.

Savage went straight to the grab, and before Moreno stopped the ball, he passed the ball directly to Gaby in front.

Before Gabi, Savage, Cork, and the three of them, they performed continuous short passes to regain control of the ball, and waited for their teammates to move and prepare to attack.

Cork dribbled forward without encountering any obstacles.

In the case of less than one player, Liverpool no longer conducts its own frontcourt oppressive defense, but all players retreat to the 30-meter area of ​​the backcourt to defend.

Before the danger zone, even if the Atletico Madrid players control the ball and control the flowers, the Liverpool players will not take the risk of defending them and give their opponents a chance.

Cork’s dribbling in the midfield was not controlled by anyone, but when he entered the 30-meter area, at least three Liverpool defenders might suddenly rush to encircle Cork.

In the mid-range did not find a good hole to tear open Liverpool's defense, Cork chose to split the ball to Felipe Luiz on the left.

Felipe Luiz continued to seek a breakthrough on the wing, but this time Klein's defensive position selection was very good. Felipe Luiz tried consecutive fake moves and did not shake Klein's defense.

In the end, Felipe Luiz, who didn’t have a good chance to pass the ball, could only choose to pass the ball back to Cork who received it in the center~www.NovelMTL.com~ This time, Cork’s attack came, but it was coming. Before receiving the pass, the offensive afterwards has been planned.

After the stop was completed, Cork directly picked a pass before Liverpool's defense was not pressing up.

Suddenly the ball was sent to Liverpool's small penalty area again.

It was the close cooperation between Griezman and Cork. While Cork passed the ball, Griezman broke out with all his speed, turned offside successfully and went straight into Liverpool's goal.

Griezman wanted to stretch out his leg and complete a kick shot directly in the air.

It will be extremely difficult for the goalkeeper to react as long as a shot is formed at such close range.

Mignolet was ready to reappear.

But Yang Feng, at this moment, reflects the defensive value of his "protagonist".

It was already an offense by Griezmann against offside before. Yang Feng's defense, but he wouldn't be in the same pit and fall back twice.

Yang Feng has always paid great attention to Griezmann's running position, and subjectively observed that the ball holders on the Atletico arena, considering how they pass, can continue to find Griezmann.

This time, before Cork completed the pass, Yang Feng had already felt wrong and moved quickly toward Griezmann's side.

As a result, Kirk's pass really came from Griezmann's side.

It can be regarded as being caught by Yang Feng.

Although Griezmann has a speed advantage, Yang Feng himself has a greater physical advantage than Griezmann when he starts the run first.

Yang Feng took off first and stretched out his legs in the air towards the landing position. Of course, Griezmann's short legs and Yang Feng's long legs are not comparable.
