Football’s First Defender

　　 During the intermission, Klopp made a series of offensive arrangements for Atletico's defense, but maybe even Klopp himself is full of doubts about whether this arrangement is effective.

　　 is really the defensive ability of Atletico, it is too "desperate".

　　 In Klopp's coaching career, the Bundesliga team was not good at defending. When facing the powerful Bayern, although it may be a game, only 2, 3 kicks.

　　 But that is almost a generational difference in player strength, not Bayern's overall defense, so good.

　　 In the Premier League, the former defensive team Chelsea has fallen.

　　 And this season, Leicester City, the strongest team in the Premier League, actually has weaknesses to take advantage of.

　　 But now facing Atletico Madrid, for Klopp, it really is the strongest level of defensive ability.

　　 Simply speaking on defensive ability, Atletico Madrid's iron-blooded defense, in the first half, especially in the last ten minutes, resisted Liverpool's all-round attack, did not leave Liverpool a chance, so Klopp was moved.

　　 Although he is fighting at home, can he really find opportunities in the face of such a defense?

　　 Klopp believes in the offensive ability of his team. If he dares to put more power into the offense, he may have more opportunities in the second half.

　　 But for Atletico's defensive counterattack, Klopp had some fear from the first half.

　　 Indeed, Yang Feng is an excellent defender, but the combination of Griezmann and Bietto is not weak.

　　Especially Griezmann, in any position in the frontcourt, he can complete the counterattack very well.

　　 Whether it's his own pass or the end of the attack by himself.

It can be said that Yang Feng can indeed deal with an offensive player in the frontcourt of Atletico Madrid's small and quick counterattack, but facing two at the same time, there is still a tacit understanding of two people who can complete a small pass, then there is no chance of winning .

　　 As for Skrtel, originally Skrtel’s defensive method is not suitable for offensive players with excellent technical ability like defense. Klopp knows the small problems of his own defense, so he has to make some choices in the second half.

　　 Keep the number of offenses constant, try a new offensive strategy, and see if you can get a surprise in the game.

　　 If not, then after 60 minutes, when Atletico Madrid's physical fitness declines, try to launch the final onslaught.

　　 However, at the beginning of the second half of the game, Atletico continued to change suddenly, began to take the initiative to attack, and beat Liverpool by surprise.

　　 Simeone may not have enough superstars, but he has the unique temperament that can inspire the strength of all the players on the team, allowing his players to dedicate everything for a goal.

　　 In a game, the tactical style is constantly changed, and the players can use all their physical energy to run, and in the game, to achieve the greatest extent possible.

　　 Atletico Madrid may be the most team football among the many European giants. It is the kind of football where every player is on the field and selflessly dedicated.

　　 Simeone used his personality charm to bring Atletico to where it is today, the top three in La Liga, and a frequent visitor to the Champions League.

The La Liga championship has already been won. For Simeone, he was dragged into overtime in the Champions League final two years ago and suffered a terrible defeat. Then this season, after reaching the Champions League knockout stage, the team’s new lineup has also run-in. , Simeone hopes that this year, the impact on the "big ear cup" will be launched again.

　　 Liverpool intends to take the lead in the offensive in the game, but did not expect that at the beginning of the second half, Atletico changed the style of defending before, and took the initiative to defend and attack.

　　 Klopp on the sidelines is also a bit headache, and a bit envious.

　　 Atletico Madrid’s tactical variability makes it possible to continuously change the game style in a game.

　　 What I envy is that Simeone has completed the construction of the team. Although the players may lack the overall strength, but under the tactics, they can burst out the strength of the top team.

　　 Klopp's training for today's team is not yet in place. For a team like Atletico with a strong overall ability, there is indeed some envy.

　　 At the beginning of the second half of the game, Atletico once again turned against the goal, relying on the pressure in the center and front, directly after the completion of the counter grab, it caused great trouble for Liverpool.

After a high ball dispute, Liverpool relied on aerial work to always grab the ball to the first place. However, under the comprehensive pressure and defense of Atletico Madrid players, there was no way to unload the ball and turn on the effective one. attack.

　　 In the end, the Atletico Madrid player's uptake was directly through continuous pressing, and after Liverpool had "air operations" back and forth five times, the ball was snatched.

　　 Cork rushed forward and jumped the scramble for the ball. In the sixth high-altitude ball scramble, he finally grabbed the spot, and directly relied on inertia in the middle to push the ball to the right side.

　　 Oliver Torres on the right, directly because he was in the state of grabbing before, this time he continued to accelerate forward. After grabbing the landing point of the ball returned by Cork, he directly took the ball and accelerated forward.

　　In an instant, Liverpool’s previous consecutive headers, on the contrary, fulfilled Atletico’s, a counterattack on the spot after a frontcourt counterattack.

　　 But for the Liverpool players, if they do it again, they will still do that.

　　 After all, in a strong matchup, every time the ball is under control, an offensive opportunity can be completed, which may cause more trouble to the opponent.

　　 And this time, it was only an accident that Atletico completed a steal and counterattack.

To put it in the old Chinese saying, you can’t give up food because of choking. The same is true for Liverpool. If you want to create better opportunities in the game, you must dare to attack and seize every opportunity in the game to ensure every chance Attack opportunity.

　　 Even if the opponent is really going to catch a certain opportunity, complete a local counterattack.

　　 said back to the game.

　　 Oliver Torres quickly dribbled the ball on the right and instantly pushed the ball into Liverpool’s 30-meter defensive area.

　　 Moreno was already prepared to counterattack forward, but he was suddenly given the ball by his opponent. When he came back, he actually had no better defensive position.

　　 It's not so easy to limit Oliver Torres' wing attack.

　　 When Moreno's defense was not timely, Oliver Torres was on the right and had a larger space to complete a pass and pass directly into the penalty area to create an offensive threat.

　　 The rhythm of the game between the two teams suddenly continued to accelerate after 30 minutes.

　　 After Fox almost got an own goal this time, Liverpool had a corner kick in the front court.

　　 Coutinho's corner kick went directly to the center goal. Yang Feng and Morgan competed for the top. Yang Feng reached the top of football, but Morgan also formed an effective interference.

　　 Under the joint efforts of the two, the football just bounced high and flew to the front of the goal, allowing the goalkeeper Schmeichel to easily receive the ball.

　　 The little Schmeichel, who was anxious to fight back, ran to the penalty area line quickly, and a big foot went directly to Vardy in the frontcourt.

However, in the case of being too anxious, the bigfoot pass did not maintain accuracy. The flight path of the ball was indeed looking for Vardy on the right, but it was kicked out by Schmeichel too strongly. Beyond the sideline.

　　 Moreno sent a sideline kick. The entire Leicester City had 4 defensive players in the frontcourt. They were constantly following the Liverpool players to put pressure on Liverpool’s organizational attack.

　　 After the receivers at close range were all stared at by Leicester City players, Moreno had no choice but to vigorously throw the ball to his teammates farther away.

　　 However, Moreno suddenly slipped his hand when he threw the ball from the sideline.

　　 "It's a mistake! Moreno, this time the ball from the sideline was sent, obviously the hand slipped, the ball flew out irregularly, and was directly stopped by Vardy."

　　 Vardy originally forced Yang Feng to receive the ball in midfield, but this time Liverpool’s sideline kick was directly “passed” to himself.

　　 Vardy reacted quickly, since the opponent gave a big gift, he naturally accepted it with pleasure.

　　 After unloading the ball from his chest, he drove the ball diagonally to impact Liverpool's penalty area.

　　 Fortunately, Yang Feng responded quickly. After seeing Moreno's pass error, he was immediately ready to defend, and he went straight up to fight Vardy physically and exert defensive pressure.

　　Valdy is holding Yang Feng's defense, wanting to move diagonally to find opportunities.

　　 It's just that Yang Feng's defensive position selection is quite good, and he doesn't give Vardy a chance to accelerate.

　　 There is no real threat to the breakthrough. Seeing other Liverpool defenders rushing to double-defensively, Vardy suddenly knocked the ball with his heel and knocked the ball to the rear right.

　　 Yang Feng is also helpless with Vardy's pass at this time. He has done all his defense, limiting Vardy's biggest threat.

　　 Vardy knocked the ball to the position before he broke, and that position has become empty.

　　 And Mahrez followed up and immediately completed a long shot against the ball.

　　 exerted full force, fully stretched out his body, and shot a very beautiful peripheral shot.

　　 Judging from the ball's flight trajectory, the goal will be scored directly from the left.

　　 But!

　　 After Yang Feng restricted Vardy's offense and won the defensive reaction time, Mignolet showed his strong defensive ability on the goal line.

　　 A flying side pounce with a limit of take-off height, and directly blocked the ball with a single palm.

　　 "Concentrate! Defense! Defense!"

　　 After successfully completing this save, Mignolet roared loudly in front of the goal to make the team's defense and cheer up.

　　 And Yang Feng also loudly warned several players next to him, this game, there can be no relaxation of vigilance.

　　 This time, Mahrez’s shots and Mignole’s saves were world-class.

　　 A powerful shot from the outside, the speed of the ball, and the large arc from left to right, as well as the characteristics of a falling leaf ball.

　　 Judging from the trajectory of the ball, if it weren't for Mignole's save, the ball would fall directly into the upper left corner of the goal, making Mahrez the creator of the best goal in the Premier League this round.

　　 But Mignole’s save, this moment showed his excellent goal line ability.

　　'S excellent judgment on the incoming ball, the speed of his own foot lateral movement, and the take-off height, all helped Mignolet complete this extreme save.

If you want to hit the goal with this kick, you need the most suitable take-off height and the most suitable time to save. Mignolet did it. At this time, Mignolet played a world-class position on the goal line. Strength.

　　 After Leicester City’s corner kick opportunity, as within the penalty area, Leicester City only have two high points, Morgan and Hut, under the scrutiny of Liverpool, they could not create too good opportunities.

　　 Leicester City simply issued a tactical corner kick and Mahrez held the ball on the left.

　　 used his ball-handling ability to move around on the sidelines, trying to create a breakthrough opportunity.

　　 It's just that Liverpool's defense is quite targeted. When the defender is in place, the two teams directly force Mahrez.

　　 Mahrez wanted to show his breakthrough ability, but he also lost his breakthrough space in the face of Liverpool's double defense.

　　 In a hurry, Mahrez could only choose to distribute the ball to Fox, who had just given the corner kick.

　　Fox obviously did not expect Mahrez to pass the ball. He was not ready to receive the ball and the ball leaked directly from his feet.

The ball rolled directly out of bounds, a sideline ball ~www.readwn.com~ However, as the Leicester City players, also in the game, began to completely re-mobilize the state of the game, Liverpool players, do not open their feet Under the circumstances, it is not easy to send the ball through half the court.

　　Leicester City's frontcourt press is very active and effective.

　　 And Kanter is alone, at this time, he really can't run away.

If Shinji Okazaki relies on a simple "iron lung" to support his running, Kan looks particularly thin, but he has speed, strength, and physical fitness. His pressing is not just one shot, but he will never drop the ball. Relaxation put a lot of pressure on Liverpool players.

It’s hard to imagine that Kanter could chase the ball and press for three times in a row. From the penalty area, he grabbed the vicinity of the midfield, put pressure on Liverpool’s ball holder three times in a row, and finally was near the midfield with his teammates. In the encirclement, the ball at the feet of Firmino was snatched.

　　 In the last few minutes of the first half, the home team regained its advantage and used the frontcourt pressure to completely restrict Liverpool to its own half.

　　 Leicester City played again for a few minutes to suppress the game.

It’s just that, although Liverpool’s offense is somewhat suppressed and unable to play, Leicester City has only gained possession of the ball in the frontcourt, but it has not been able to cause substantial impact when facing Liverpool’s defense. Offensive threat.

　　 Yang Feng guards in the penalty area, commanding his teammates everywhere, not only maintains a tight line of defense, but does not give the home team any chance to easily launch an attack.

　　 0 to 0, neither side has a good chance at halftime, they can only wait for the side to fight again.
