Chapter 43 Textbook Counterattack, Inverted Triangle Assist

In the middle of the week, it's European match day.

The first game to start is the UEFA Champions League, which is recognized as the highest level in world football. The game time is traditional European local time on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.

The UEFA Europa League kicks off the second day after the UEFA Champions League match day ends.

It was nearly eight o'clock in the evening local time in Europe, and there was still more than an hour before the start of the game. The starting lineups of both sides came out.

The Longguo fans who stayed up all night in front of the computer screen were immediately refreshed!
Because, Martin's name is impressively listed!

Websites and apps with a social nature such as live broadcasts, forums, post bars, penguin groups, scarves, etc. have gathered a large number of Dragon Kingdom fans.

Although Martin's position on the field is right back, his style of play is capable of attacking and defending well.

It can prevent people and attack them.

Every time you sprint at a speed like an electric motor, it is extremely exciting.

As usual, Wolfsburg's home stadium, the Volkswagen Arena, was packed to capacity.

"aoaoaooooo—"

The overwhelming shouts continued, so that Martin, who was warming up, felt intensely excited, wishing that the game would start immediately.

Going back to the home team locker room, closing the door, the noise from the stadium stopped abruptly.

I have to say that the sound insulation facilities are really good.

Martin, like other key players, first sorted out his personal appearance.

For them, the next Europa League is the best stage to show off.

It is very necessary to organize yourself meticulously.

Martin is still very young. Although his mental age is 30+, his mentality is still around 18 years old. He wants to present his prosperous beauty to the fans.

By the way, let's see if I can charm a few beautiful girls who are not deeply involved in the world.

"Damn, you used my hairspray again?"

Vierinha scolded with a smile: "Don't you know how many bottles to buy and put in the locker room?"

"Hey, next time for sure."

Martin dabbed some more hairspray into the palm of his hand, and put it on the new hairstyle he had just cut yesterday, before returning it to Vierrinia.

When he got his hair done, the head coach Hei Jin also coughed lightly.

"cough~"

The unspoken meaning is that the stinky players, it's time to gather.

It is said to explain the tactics, but it is actually to consolidate the game tactics that have been set before, and then make corresponding adjustments according to Lille's starting lineup.

What pleased Martin was that Paval, who could play both left and right full-backs, appeared as Lille's starting left-back.

In other words, the next game...he will face the future main French right back.

He smiled.

Even Pawar in his peak period is not afraid, let alone just promoted from the B team?

It is no exaggeration to say that even in the face of breakthrough monsters such as Hazard, Messi, and Neymar, you are not afraid!
Yes, just excitement and anticipation.

In addition, there are actually very few direct dialogues between the two full-backs, and more of them are against the opponent's avant-garde or winger.

The game time is [-]:[-] pm local time.

Led by diehard fans, the frenzied atmosphere of the packed public arena was completely ignited.

Wave after wave of huge shouts gave the home team players a lot of help.

From the sound of the referee, the players of the home team quickly overwhelmed the half court and launched a bombing attack on Lille's defensive half court.

Martin actively participated in the offense according to the tactics formulated before the game, enriching the team's three-dimensional offense.

Before the game, Lille obviously carried out targeted research on Wolfsburg's recent offense. The defense was in place and did not give the offensive system led by De Bruyne a good chance.

As a result, the two wings where Ricardo Rodriguez and Martin were located became the focus of Wolfsburg's attack.

In the positional attack, the role of left back Ricardo Rodriguez is more obvious, so the positional attack focuses on the left.

Wait until Lille's defensive center of gravity is biased to their right, and then complete the transfer through De Bruyne and Gustavo's long passes, and Martin completes the cross from the right.

The quality of the cross without interference is not bad, and Olic, who is at the top, can also be found.

But Kjaer, who once played for Wolfsburg but failed to stay, is in very good condition. He has defended Olic and Perisic with no temper several times in a row.

The defensive players of the home and away teams played well, and there is no good way to make the opponent's offensive players.

At the end of the 45-minute first half, the scoreboard still showed a score of 0:0.

Considering that they defeated Everton 1:4 as a guest in the first round of the group stage, and Lille won 2:1 at home, the second round of home games is extremely important for Wolfsburg.

If there is no way to get all three points, it is very likely to face elimination.

Although the gold content of the Europa League is relatively low, it is still very attractive to a team that has not won a European championship.

Most importantly, UEFA decided last year.

Starting from this season's Europa League champion, they can directly advance to the UEFA Champions League play-offs next season.

If the Champions League defending champion has secured the qualification to participate in the UEFA Champions League group stage next season, then the Europa League defending champion can directly enter the UEFA Champions League group stage.

Therefore, starting from the Europa League this season, many mid-upstream teams in the five major leagues have pinned their hopes of participating in the UEFA Champions League on the Europa League.

Wolfsburg stumbled at the beginning of the league, and the ranking has been around ten. Heijin wants to pin his chance to participate in the UEFA Champions League next season on the Europa League this season.

The 15-minute halftime break was fleeting, and players from both sides returned to the court one after another.

Perhaps the coaches of both sides were very satisfied with the performance of their respective players in the first half, and did not make substitution adjustments before the start of the second half.

Changing sides to fight again, Lille, who has the kick-off advantage, quickly expanded his formation, and directly found Origi, who was cruising to the left, through a long pass from the backcourt, intending to use his strong body to overwhelm Martin to open the gap.

Martin is not physically strong, but he has a strong defensive awareness. When he noticed that the opponent was looking for Origi, he chose to stand still.

Give Divock Origi the opportunity to fight for the header, and then quickly return to his position.

When the football is about to be handed over to Origi, post it immediately, and don't give him too much space to get the ball forward.

Compared with the targeted attack in the first half, Lille's offense in the second half was more focused on the left, which is Martin's defensive right.

Obviously, they want to use Martin's youth to create scoring opportunities.

Unfortunately, Martin's defensive ability was the best in the team, and he didn't give Lille a chance at all.

The attack of the home team Wolfsburg was restricted by De Bruyne, but there was a lot of thunder and little rain, which could not pose too much threat to Lille's defense at all.

Until the 57th minute of the game, Lille's offense, which switched from defense to offense, passed three passes and fell twice, and soon came to the offensive left.

Origi, Pavard and Ryan Mendes hit the ball consecutively on the left side of the attack. Gustavo moved slowly, and Martin, who was fighting and retreating, maintained a high degree of concentration with one against two.

Origi, who took the ball, made a gesture to go in, but in fact, when attracting Martin to move in, he decisively handed the ball to Pavar, who participated in the attack.

Martin was prepared, and almost twisted his waist and turned to accelerate at the moment Origi passed the ball.

Paval only has a start advantage but no speed advantage. He leads the football passed by Origi in the direction of travel, and looks up at the position of his teammates in the penalty area while adjusting the pace.

It was also this observation that gave Martin, who has the ability to recover and speed up, a few chances to catch up with strides.

At the moment Pavar kicked the pass, he slapped his horse to catch up, fell to the ground to block, and raised his right foot just to intercept the running direction of the rising football.

Coincidentally, the football went in and out by mistake, and the force bounced back to Pavard.

Pavar obviously didn't expect that Martin got up immediately with a high reaction value of 80, and stopped the football that hit Pavar's thigh and changed direction with his body before flying out of the bottom line.

Pawar, who was out of the baseline due to inertia, and Origi, who was on the left side of the penalty area, instinctively raised their hands to signal that the football was out of the baseline.

It should be a corner kick!
Martin didn't care so much, he looked up for a little observation, and then quickly passed the ball with his right foot to Gustavo, who had just settled down.

Wolfsburg is very familiar with defensive counterattack tactics.

Gustavo used his strong body to resist Rozenal's attack, and quickly handed the ball to Hunter who was facing the offense with his back to the offense.

De Bruyne, Olic and Perisic fired three arrows together.

"aoaooaoaoooo—"

Accompanied by the huge shouts made by the home fans, Hunter who received the ball gave the ball to the right.

"Martin!!"

Sky Deutschland commentator Marcel Leif's voice rose an octave.

The Wolfsburg fans in the auditorium saw Martin go forward at high speed, and the explosive momentum became more violent.

Lille left-back Pavard was still struggling to chase back. Origi, who was pulled to the left to attack, had weak defensive awareness. By the time he reacted and wanted to return to defense, Martin had already fully accelerated.

In the four-three-three formation, Guye, who is on the left side of the midfield, shoulders the heavy responsibility of defending the left side. Martin, who is running at high speed, stops and walks to force the ball over before Gueye puts the shovel in place. over the center line.

But his dribbling ability is relatively poor. After catching up with the football, he quickly passed the ball to Perisic in the rib.

This pass just disrupted the defensive plan of the left central defender Basha who was defending. He had to twist his waist and turn around to defend Perisic in the rib during the defensive process of chasing back.

Unexpectedly, Perisic, who received the ball, passed the football back without stopping the ball, and gave a certain amount of advance.

In this way, Martin can run at full speed and increase the speed of counterattack to the extreme.

"aoaoaoooo—"

The atmosphere in the public arena also became extremely crazy, with tsunami-like violent shouts rising one after another.

Martin made a few strides, and almost in the blink of an eye, he came to the offensive right parallel to the penalty area.

He slanted the ball four or five meters to the ribs, and looked at Olic, who was outflanking and following up in the middle.

Central defender Basha did not narrow the distance between each other with all his strength, but his position was in the middle, which was equivalent to blocking the internal cut route.

Martin has no intention of cutting inside. The passive effect of the stop master is only one touch of the ball. Wherever he wants to stop, the second touch will be difficult to control.

For maximum benefit, he must complete the pass after first touch.

So, he swept the pass half a meter close to the sideline of the penalty area on the right.

Basha used inertia to fall to the ground to block the football and did not touch the football. The entangled Olic and Kyar just passed the penalty spot and stopped watching the football passing behind them.

Goalkeeper Enyema subconsciously moved from the near corner to the middle.

De Bruyne, the second echelon player of Wolfsburg's counterattack, appeared in Martin's inverted triangle passing route.

His left foot stepped on the penalty area line to support his body.

Swing your right foot from back to front, and shoot furiously at the ball!

The kicked football is like a shell that has been shot out of the tank, and it hits the upper left corner of the goal with unstoppable momentum.

Enyema reacted quickly, but the speed of the ball was too fast. Before he opened his hands, the heavy football hit the snow-white net behind him two steps ahead...
