"We could see that with Moussa Sissoko coming on, Spurs were active on both sides."

"They made full use of the width of the pitch and stretched York City's defense wide and wide. In this way, York City has more space."

"The opportunity that Eriksson got outside the penalty area just now was that other Tottenham players attracted the attention of defensive players and created space for him!"

Alan Shearer in the commentary room felt that the world-class long-range shot just now was the most exciting attack so far in the game.

"That's right, Tottenham's players are superior to York City's players in terms of personal ability, which makes Tottenham dare to let the players play on the field, while York City must rely on a tenacious overall to suppress."

Lineker now also feels that the game has begun to become exciting.

From a tactical point of view, in the first half, Scaloni's iron barrel formation completely suppressed Tottenham's attacking group, but in the second half, Pochettino replaced Lamela and replaced Moussa Sissoko. One hand can be said to be a master hand.

After the two wingers played live, Tottenham seemed to have opened up the situation, with beautiful offensive scenes one after another.

"Alan, how do you think Scaloni will take the next move?" Lineker became more and more interested in this game.

"I think it's quite difficult. The next 10 minutes will be the best time for Tottenham to establish an advantage, but York City has no cards to play." Alan Shearer shook his head, "After all, they It's just a League One team, and they basically rely on a main lineup to play. This is why they gave up the League Cup and the British Championship early. Look at their bench. It can be said that it doesn't matter whoever plays This situation cannot be changed!"

Lineker said: "Is it possible to use veterans like Joe Partington or Gary Fletcher? They have all played in the Premier League. Although they are older now, they should still be able to help the team strengthen their defense. right?"

Alan Shearer thought for a while, nodded and said: "There is also this possibility. But now, it is not clear how he will adjust. Replace a forward? Now the defensive pressure is very high, and it is indeed true to put two forwards in front. It's useless."

"It makes sense." Lineker also nodded, "Increasing the number of midfielders to strengthen the defense, and then putting only one striker in front to counterattack, feels like the best strategy for York City at present."

While the two were talking, the live broadcast shifted to York City's bench.

I saw Scaloni yelling back, and immediately a player sitting on the bench ran out to warm up.

A few minutes later, York City took advantage of the dead ball and started to make substitutions.

Joe Partington ran to the scene, and then the referee held up the substitution sign, signaling the main center Baker to leave the field and replace him with Joe Partington. The two hugged on the sidelines and then went on and off the field respectively.

This is a tactical adjustment, and some changes have taken place in York City's lineup.

First, Armand played a single striker at the front. Joe Partington and Rice stood in front of Harvey Alonso, forming an inverted triangle with three midfielders, and the formation became a 4. -5-1.

After Joe Partington came on the field, his main task was to assist Alfonso Davis on the wing to guard Moussa Sissoko on this side.

In this way, York City's defense became stronger.

Joe Partington and Alphonso Davies on the left combined to control Moussa Sissoko, which allowed Alonso and Rice to have more energy to help defend Son Heung-min and Danny on the other side. Rose, while Eriksson and Moussa Dembele in the center were not active after the two sides were controlled.

Seemingly still not at ease, Scaloni shouted on the sidelines to let Amon's position retreat, and also helped the midfielder to steal.

Amon is not a pure shooter. His speed and body can allow him to run in various areas of the frontcourt. He is a perfect "pressing forward" candidate.

So now he often appears outside the penalty area to help defend.

All 11 people on the field were devoted to defense, and the frontcourt was completely thrown to Tottenham, but the opponent was helpless.

This also allowed several Tottenham defensive players who were in power and did not score to keep moving forward, wanting to give their teammates more support.

At this time, Amon will suddenly go forward, ready to receive the pass from the backcourt, especially the precise long pass from Alonso.

Such a strategy also made Tottenham afraid to go all out and play a bit uncomfortable.

"Scaloni is indeed a very capable head coach. The tactics of this game are very targeted. Especially in terms of defense, he hardly gave Tottenham any chance. It can be seen that he is very good at Tottenham. Thorns are well studied." Alan Shearer said with admiration.

After Lineker heard this, he immediately laughed: "Of course, Scaloni must have learned a lot from playing under Pan Yi! To be honest, I always thought that it was Pan Yi who was standing on the sidelines and commanding now." Well, many routines look very familiar!"

After hearing this, Alan Shearer also laughed.

This is a typical "Pan blowing" statement, but it seems irrefutable.

After all, Scaloni has stated in public more than once that he learned everything from Pan Yi...
-
Tottenham's backcourt, especially the central defenders, dare not go all out, but their trident and midfielder are still very aggressive, and the assists of the full-backs are also very sharp.

Coupled with the advantages on the scene, Tottenham can still play a good offensive coordination.

In the 65th minute, they made a little space by attacking from the right.

The extremely fast Walker drove the ball straight along the right line, and after rushing to the 30-meter area of ​​York City, he suddenly transferred with a long pass.

After the ball crossed more than half of the court, it landed outside the left corner of York City's penalty area.

At this time, this gap was unguarded.

York City's defense also adjusted quickly, and Fu Anjianyang ran over immediately.

Danny Rose stopped the ball directly to Eriksson behind him without stopping the ball, and he quickly moved forward.

The Danish midfielder understood, rubbed a kick to pick a pass, and passed it directly behind the defense.

However, the strength of this kick was a little too strong. After Danny Rose caught up, he could only take a kick with all his strength, and the ball hit the side net directly.

"This time the offense did not pose a threat, but Tottenham's overall offense and defense are still quite organized and thoughtful."

"Especially Walker's long pass transfer. When everyone thought he was going to cross to find a high point in the penalty area, he suddenly shifted to the weak side. It was really very thoughtful."

"The 26-year-old England international has performed very well at Tottenham in the past few seasons. I heard that he has received the attention of Manchester City. Guardiola hopes to bring him to Blue Moon after the end of the season."

Soon, Tottenham formed another interception in midfield.

Moussa Dembele quickly passed the ball to Eriksson after stealing it, and the latter kicked it out again, gave it to Son Heung-min, and passed it forward to Vicente Jensen.

When Vicente Jensen stopped the ball with his back, he sidled to the right and immediately passed the ball to Moussa Sissoko on the right. Bottom cross.

It's a pity that the pass was a little too big, no one touched the ball in the middle, and it went straight out of the sideline on the other side.

"Tottenham are attacking more and more fiercely now, and York City's current situation is a bit unfavorable."

"Although Scaloni used a defensive formation with three midfielders, he was still constantly created by Tottenham's players. York City must be careful."

"Vincent Jensen drops back again and catches the ball with his back."

"Now the three attackers in the frontcourt of Tottenham often drop back, which can better tear apart York City's defense."

"Look at this time, Vincent Jensen stopped the ball and went to the left, Danny Rose has rushed to the front, waiting for the pass from Vicente Jensen."

"It wasn't a good time. Vicente Jensen didn't make a pass. He brought it forward by himself. After attracting the attention of the defense, he passed the ball."

"Danny Rose got the ball in the left corner of the box and then crossed into the box, looking for Vicente Jensen."

"Stop the ball with your back, turn around, and hit the goal directly!"

"Nice attack."

"Vincent Jensen's shot hit De Ligt and the ball bounced off."

"Still at the feet of Tottenham, there is still a chance."

"Pass to Sun Xingmin again, this side is a bit empty. Go to the bottom, cross, or find Vicente Jensen."

"Be pushed out, Eriksson hit again, volley!"

There was a burst of exclamation from the entire West Siberia Stadium, and the [-] York City fans were terrified.

Eriksson's volley shot was very quality, but the height was not suppressed, and it was slightly higher.

Although they didn't score, Tottenham have played really well these days, and the home team, York City, didn't even have a chance to score into Tottenham's penalty area, let alone hit the goal.

Therefore, the York City fans present couldn't help worrying about their own side.

However, it seems that York City's coach is not in a hurry, nor is the boss.

Scaloni has been sitting on the coaching bench, while Pan Yi is still chatting with Levi calmly, as if the critical situation on the field has nothing to do with him.

On the field, after being bombarded for about ten minutes, York City gradually stabilized their position.

Tottenham gradually focused on controlling the ball and began to slowly advance.

This is actually normal.

This stormy attack at the beginning of the second half consumes a lot of physical energy for the players.

If Tottenham can't accept as soon as they are good, their physical fitness will be exhausted early, and they will be very passive until the final stage of the game.

Even Pochettino's team is known for being young and capable of running, but it can't afford such consumption.

After the opponent slowed down their offensive, York City began to gather heavy troops near the center line.

Three defensive midfielders + forwards on both sides, and started to rush for the Tottenham midfielder who was holding the ball!
When Eriksson wanted to cross the ball to Moussa Dembele, Rice stepped forward and snatched the ball first.

Rice first handed the ball to Alonso, who kicked the ball to Kulusevski who quickly advanced forward on the right.

After Kulusevsky stopped the ball with his chest, he turned around and passed it to Amon who ran over to meet him.

Amon was still receiving the ball between Tottenham's midfielder and central defender. Vertonghen stepped forward at the first time, but Amon blocked Lange with his body first, and then accelerated to throw him away.

After Fu'an Jianyang put in the edge, Amang also distributed the ball to the right, and then rushed forward quickly.

Fu Anjianyang dribbled the ball to the right side of Tottenham's penalty area, and when Amon was in place, he made a cross directly, and went to Amon for this point.

Of course, now that Baker is not on the field, York City's crossing strategy has changed from "passing the ball high" to "passing the ball low", so that they can avoid Amon's disadvantage in height and instead use his Advantages in speed and running position.

At this time, Amon had just rushed into the right side of Tottenham's big penalty area. After stopping the ball sideways with the outside instep, he immediately passed the ball across to Joe Partington's feet near the penalty spot.

At this time, Tottenham's entire defense was pressed to the middle and right side of the penalty area.

Joe Partington didn't have a chance to kick. After blocking Alderweireld who came to defend with his body, he passed the ball back to the left side of the top of the arc in the penalty area.

I saw Lin Liangming rushing forward!

He had been prepared for a long time, and when Joe Partington's return pass arrived, he shot directly with one kick.

The ball flew out at an extremely fast speed and hung straight to the right of the goal.

At the beginning, Tottenham goalkeeper Lloris' attention was on Joe Partington in the middle, and he didn't notice Lin Liangming rushing up from the other side at all.

And Lin Liangming's shot this time was of extremely high quality!
He not only suppressed the ball, but also the ball was very fast and the angle was very tricky, almost rubbing the right post into the net.

"GoaLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 80th minute, Lin Liangming scored for York City! 1:0!!!"

"My God, no one thought that after Tottenham besieged York City for almost the entire game, it was actually York City who opened the scoring! A return pass from Joe Partington, Lin Liangming kicked the world wave, for York City City scored a crucial goal!"

"It may be that Tottenham attacked too aggressively, which caused their physical fitness and concentration to decline to varying degrees. This time there was also a problem with defense. This small problem was caught by York City Already!"

"Perhaps, York City's ability to pass and control the ball is not as good as Tottenham's. Maybe York City's players are really young. Maybe York City's players don't have as many famous players as Tottenham. But these young players scored first at the West Siberia Stadium! "

"It's incredible, but, that's football!"

"Is this the reason why Scaloni and Pan Yi are still calm when the scene in York City is extremely passive? They may have been waiting for such an opportunity!"

"Pan Yi's team may once again create painful memories for Tottenham, although this time it is not Pan Yi who coaches himself..."
-
Pan Yi was sitting in the stands of the West Siberia Stadium. The moment he saw Lin Liangming's goal, he was also full of surprises. He couldn't help standing up and applauding the team's performance.

Putting up an iron bucket formation and launching a surprise attack after Tottenham slack off, this is indeed the script he and Scaloni planned.

But things are changing rapidly on the court, and sometimes the script can't be staged as scheduled.

Therefore, Pan Yi was still very excited when he saw that York City really played a textbook counterattack.

It is cool to defeat the strong with the weak!

Just like when you play an FM game and win with a rich team, it is usually calm;
But if you take a League One and League Two team to upset Liverpool or Manchester City in a game like the FA Cup, you may jump up happily in front of the computer screen.

Levi, who was sitting next to Pan Yi, was touching his bald head, looking helpless.

When Pan Yi led Chelsea in the past, Tottenham could not beat them;

Now Pan Yi only has a League One team in his hands. Why does Tottenham look like they are still about to lose?

"There are still 10 minutes left, we may not win." Pan Yi patted Levi's shoulder while celebrating, and comforted him, "It's too early to say who will win and who will win."

Levi: "..."

There seemed to be nothing wrong with these words, but now that Pan Yi said it to him, it always felt that something was wrong.

My team has been attacking for 10 and [-] minutes and they have nothing to do with York City. Now that they are behind, they can score instead?
Levi himself did not believe in this logic.

And it seems that in order to make Levi more desperate, York City on the field has changed a little at this time.

Forward Amon's position has been receded even further, and the team's formation has also become a 4-6-0, with no forwards at all!

All the people gave up their offense completely, and put together at the front of their penalty area, setting up the bus in solidarity!
This time it's a real bus!

When many people mention defense, their first impression is to set the bus.

In fact, placing the bus is the worst form of defense. If you are not forced to do so, no one is willing to place the bus.

The reason is very simple. With the bus set up, the scene is too passive and it is difficult to form an effective counterattack.

Today, York City's defense actually emphasizes flexibility and layering the most.

Through a layered and flexible defensive system, the opponent's offensive threat is blocked outside the penalty area, while leaving room for a threatening counterattack.

But that's what the York City players were doing 80 minutes ago.

In the last 10 minutes, it was really a pure bus!
Strictly observing discipline and delaying the full time is to use up the time abruptly.

Because Scaloni knew that due to the fact that there were too few people involved in the attack, Tottenham's loophole just now was actually very difficult to replicate, and it could only be caught once.

Once the opponent is on guard, whether it is against Fu Anjianyang, Amon or Joe Partington behind him, they can kill that attack in advance.

Therefore, instead of taking the risk of investing troops in the front and being found open by Tottenham, it is better to use the lead of one goal and defend with all your strength!

Under this premise, placing the bus is definitely the first magic formation in the past and present, and it will never go out of fashion.

When you are behind and facing a huge crowd of defenses, teams all over the world will play impatiently, and Tottenham are no exception.

Often when they pass the ball in front of the penalty area, they see that there is no way to penetrate it, that is, they either try their luck with a random pass, or they just take a random shot.

But such attempts are often blocked by the York City players who are full of people in the penalty area.

And when York City players get the ball in the backcourt, they often fly up with a big foot, or even drive directly out of the sideline.

At this time, the home field advantage was reflected again. Of course, the youth training players of York City who acted as caddies were all top-notch, and they often waited for a long time before handing over the ball.

The anxious Tottenham players often grab it and throw it quickly, but what awaits them is another big foot...

And if York City can get the ball in the frontcourt, it would be embarrassing, just to get the ball directly is to run to the corner.

Aman and Lin Liangming would play with Tottenham players for a long time beside the corner flag, and then kick each other and take another corner kick.

Going one or two like this, the time is quickly consumed.

When the referee finally blew the final whistle, the [-] spectators jumped to their feet!
On this special day today, York City also had a big upset. In the fourth round of the FA Cup, they defeated Tottenham, who played with all the main players, and broke into the fifth round!

Even the fans who were the most optimistic about York City before the game would never have imagined that this team could win at the West Siberia Stadium, which is simply unbelievable!
The whole stadium suddenly became a sea of ​​joy.

After the game, of course, the enthusiasm for this game has not diminished.

The media who were close to Spurs were swearing and arrogant before the game, but after the game, they all became dejected.

After the game, they immediately began to split the pot to see who was responsible for the conceded goal. The head coach Pochettino was not spared and was under tremendous pressure from public opinion.

More British media generally sang praises to York City.

They are even looking forward to York City's miracle road in the FA Cup.

After all, now that York City has entered the top [-], even if they reach the final or even win the championship, what is impossible?
In other games in this round, Liverpool lost to Wolves 1:2 and were eliminated, which made York City seem to have one less rival.

Of course, more strong teams still pass the test.

切尔西4:0轻取布伦特福德,曼城3:0水晶宫,曼联4:0维冈竞技,他们也都进入了十六强。

It's just that how these strong teams play has nothing to do with York City for the time being.

Because this time, York City has drawn a good lottery.

Their opponent will be Wrexham from the National League, which is the fifth tier league!
