Football’s First Defender

Chapter 328: Take the lead

There is no change in Liverpool's lineup. In the face of rival Manchester United, it must be impossible for Liverpool to admit it at home.

The team's regular 442 offensive lineup is to compete with Manchester United at home.

Liverpool is because the team is not dragged down by the European war. Although they have made great strides in the two major domestic cups, compared to Manchester United in the European war, Liverpool's team lineup has not been greatly affected by injuries.

On the Manchester United side, although there are players' injuries and absences, thanks to the team's luxurious staff reserves, a few wounded will not make Manchester United hurt.

Although goalkeeper De Gea is young and not accustomed to life in England, his skills on the goal line, as well as excellent ability to attack, have guaranteed that he is absolutely qualified and retired from Manchester United goalkeeper, Van der Sar's mantle.

Among the four defenders, Vidic is still affected by injuries. Manchester United's double central defender in this game can only be Ferdinand, partner Evans.

The left back is still as strong as a bull with almost no injuries, while the right back is Smalling, who has just received a yellow card.

In the fourth midfield position, the midfielder is still Carrick, the left midfielder veteran Giggs, the right midfielder is Valencia, and the attacking midfielder is also the veteran Scholes.

In such an important double red society, Sir Alex Ferguson also increased his belief in the elderly.

Considering the flexibility of the team's offense and the ability of the frontcourt players to move back and defend, Ferguson placed "Brother Chic" Berbatov on the bench. The starting striker combination is Rooney and young player Welbeck. .

Welbeck has played in more than 15 games this season and scored 4 goals for Manchester United. Although the efficiency is not too high, but his offensive attributes can be sidelined, it can open a lot for Rooney. The offensive space.

Both teams are 442 formations, and both are obviously more focused on offense.

It's just that because Liverpool's frontcourt has the high point of Carroll, in the offensive tactics, it is more biased towards the cross routine.

On the Manchester United side, although it is also the main wing, they choose to attack more on the ground.

Smalling's foul was near the baseline, so this time a free kick is equivalent to a more forward corner kick.

The two teams do not have too many absolute highs. Ferdinand, who is experienced and more capable of confrontation, has the main defensive task to limit Carroll alone.

Evans is defending Scotter, while Smalling is defending Yang Feng.

Others either guard the area or mark the man. Manchester United has assembled a large number of defensive players in the penalty area to prevent Liverpool from having the opportunity to score with set kicks.

Tangning stood before the free kick, and his first goal must still be the strongest point in the penalty area, Carol!

Due to the closer distance of this ball, the reaction time for both players to fight for the landing site will be shorter. The more test is actually Tangning’s ability to pass the ball, whether he can directly find Carol and let him subconsciously complete the head. Goal!

"A free kick is taken! The ball is fast!"

"Carol shook his head to attack the door!"

"Ferdinand also jumped high, both heads and the ball hit together at the same time, the ball went out of the baseline!"

"The referee motions for a corner kick!"

When Downing walked towards the corner flag area, Ferdinand began to use bigger moves to seize the position.

Carroll's height and weight are both the top level among the Premier League strikers. In this way, in situ headers, Carroll can still have a certain advantage in a one-on-one situation.

As a former Premier League first defender, Ferdinand also has excellent congenital conditions, defensive ability, and physical fitness are also not bad, not to accept the old Ferdinand, naturally will not really call his teammates to help defend.

For Ferdinand, he has that self-confidence, he can handle it.

So when arranging the defensive positioning kick tactics before the game, although Ferguson was also interested in arranging personnel to come and help in the positioning kick defense, at that time, Ferdinand had clearly refused.

At this time, temporarily calling someone again will disrupt the team's defensive position before the game, and Ferdinand can't help himself.

"Tangning's corner kick is sent!"

This time, Tangning chose to serve the ball to the back point, and Tangning increased the rotation of the ball, paying more attention to the control of the ball, so that it fell into an area with an open point in the back point, and the speed of the ball was actually not very fast.

Carroll in the middle position, under Ferdinand's entanglement, kept staring at the ball and retreating.

However, because everyone ran to the back point, in the crowded situation, even if Carol and Ferdinand were too tall, he could not easily retreat to the back point.

Adding up to the two sides, as many as 6, 7 people squeezed together from all directions, and Carol himself was a little staggered because of the fact that Carol was staring at the ball, backing back, and then receiving force from all directions.

And Ferdinand was beside him again, suddenly exerting force, trying to rush to the place where the ball fell. After Carol received this force from Ferdinand again, he finally couldn't maintain his balance.

"Carol fell to the ground in the restricted area!"

Carroll fell to the ground this time, of course, not to trick him into getting a penalty.

However, due to Carol's own weight and body width, as Carol fell to the ground, it abruptly "smashed" out a space, and by the way it also affected the surrounding ~www.mtlnovel. com~ Many players on both sides are stable.

The players near Carroll were more or less affected. Two Manchester United players who were thinner than Carroll were simply taken down.

Within the restricted area, it instantly became extremely chaotic. Many people's way to the back point was blocked by players who fell to the ground.

Everyone was disturbed by the sudden situation.

"Yang Feng!"

"A forward! Header!"

In the penalty area, when there is a turmoil, Yang Feng's eyes are only where the ball falls, ignoring external interference.

On the way to the landing point, he first used the advantage of starting first to occupy the advantageous position of running, get rid of Smalling, and then used his arms to "reasonably" push away Carrick, who interfered with him. , In the end, regardless of everything in the penalty area, Yang Feng just aimed at the ball's landing point, a forward rush to head the ball after the jump!

"GOAL!!!"

"The ball is scored! The ball is scored!"

"Yang Feng! In the first Double Red Meeting he participated in, he made a header and broke the door of Manchester United!"

Now there is no video playback technology. With looking back at the referees and side referees, there is no meaning to this goal, Yang Feng can brazenly celebrate!

"The best deal Liverpool did last season was probably to bring the seriously injured Yang Feng from Stamford Bridge to Anfield!"

"Although Yang Feng has cultivated for nearly a year before, after his comeback, Liverpool's record is getting better and better!"

"In his first Double Reds match, Yang Feng not only made wonderful contributions on the defensive end before, but now on the offensive end, he relied on a header to take the lead for Liverpool!"

"Liverpool's 35 million spend is definitely not a loss!"
