Chapter 123: The Counterattack Begins

In the first half, Tottenham played too well, obviously in terms of preparation, Tottenham were more adequate, and the style of play of this team has changed from before, which is very uncomfortable for Paris. ”

"Pochettino's coaching ability is still very good, Tottenham can come here, it is inseparable from his teaching, and this set of tactics is a bit interesting, it seems to be particularly restrained from the core of the midfield in Paris!"

Zhan Jun looked playful; "You say, if you let Liverpool carry out this tactic, wouldn't it be a little more powerful?"

Zhang Lu pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, Liverpool can't play this tactic, Liverpool lacks the role of Eriksen, they are pure defensive midfielders, the two fullbacks are really strong, but they lack an axis in the midfield, unless Salah doesn't attack, full-time organization is still possible, but if so, Liverpool's three arrows also lose their meaning, and the gains outweigh the losses!" ”

Zhan Jun also thought about it, and couldn't help but say with pity: "It's really not good, unless you buy an organizer like Yile or Erikson!" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Lu couldn't help laughing and said, "Buy Yile to play this tactic? Liverpool's lineup plus an Yi Le has become a god, there are no shortcomings in the front, middle and backfield, the midfield control is full, the trident is completely outbreaking, the defense is stable, and the pressing is fierce, which is simply outrageous! ”

The more Zhan Jun thought about it, the more helpless he became, so why didn't Yile choose the Red Army at that time!

Soon, the players on both sides came out again, and Zhan Jun cheered up; "Well, the second half is about to start, and there are no changes on the Tottenham side, but there are some changes on the Paris side."

"Marquinhos replaced Verratti, Yile stood behind, is this to fight back?" Zhang Lu said suspiciously.

Zhan Jun thought for a moment and said; "Not necessarily, after all, the first half has proven that the counter-attack is useless, Verratti will not be that crucial factor, Boas can't give up Yile and let Verratti organize in the front, so we can wait and see what the effect of this position change is."

At Tottenham's coaching bench, Pochettino subconsciously raised his eyebrows when he saw this personnel adjustment.

He felt as if Boas had seen something, and Pochettino was secretly wary in his heart, wouldn't it be so soon?

He thought, how can Boas get the next game to find out the problem, and in just halftime, he has cracked the tactics and completed the crack?

Watt doesn't believe it!

......

Both sides are preparing for war.

Yile moved to the midfield parallel to N'Golo Kante, with Verratti up front.

With the cheers of the scene, the referee blew the whistle, and the second half officially began.

Paris kicked off first, Cavani passed the ball to Verratti, Verratti passed back to Yile, who passed back to Thiago again. Silva, as if he didn't mean to hold the ball.

Subsequently, Thiago. Silva passes the ball to N'Golo Kante, who passes the ball again to Verratti before Kane can block it.

The attack in Paris was still incredibly smooth and the tempo was exceptionally fast.

Verratti and Crossing handed the ball to Mbappe, but before he could touch the ball, Mbappe was pushed and lost possession.

Tottenham attacked in turn, but Son Heung-min was just about to receive the ball from Eriksen, but Yile and N'Golo Kante did not hesitate to close the door and directly put Son Heung-min down.

After falling to the ground, Sun Xingmin was quite helpless, and the ball passed a little far.

At the same time, Sun Xingmin felt a faint pain in his left shoulder, and he looked at Yi Le, even more helpless.

We've been teammates anyway, so why do you want to overturn yourself so fiercely.

Unlike Son Heung-min, Yile is preoccupied with the game.

The tempo on both sides was fast, and you went back and forth, especially with the ferocity of PSG's pressing up front.

The three strikers Gaviratti swept up front like four mad dogs, and Tottenham's passing became more and more impatient, especially the two full-backs had no chance to hold the ball at all, and they needed to make quick judgments and deal with them, which was too harsh for the two.

It was for this reason that Tottenham's attacking rhythm in the first half was so suffocating, with the two full-backs having to rush the ball to Eriksen, who handled it.

Seeing this scene, Pochettino was not calm on the sidelines.

He looked at Boas in shock, this guy definitely saw it.

Pressing high was their dead end, and with four Parisian players swept away, Tottenham's attack looked weak.

It was clear that Paris were pushing Eriksen to get the ball and wanted to put an end to the possibility of two full-backs getting forward.

And once Eriksen gets the ball, Yile is also slightly forward, looking like he is counterattacking.

This made Eriksen a little difficult to play the ball and hesitated.

In just five minutes, Paris had two chances to open the door, one shot on target that was held in Lloris's arms, and the other was Cavani's anti-aircraft gun.

But even so, the pace of Paris' attack has become much smoother.

Of course, there are also puzzling points.

Zhan Jun blinked, looked at the indifferent Yi Le in the backfield, and said with a look of surprise: "Paris's offensive style has changed, they no longer rely on Yi Le's ball, but directly counterattack, there is no positional battle, and the rhythm of the rapid counterattack has been added." ”

Zhang Lu also watched for a long time before he suddenly realized: "I understand, Villas-Boas has increased high pressing, as we all know, Tottenham's two full-backs do not have a very good overall view and cannot make the best choice in a short period of time, so under the pressure of Paris, they can only pass the ball to Eriksen." ”

"And in this way, it will gradually evolve into a style of play with Eriksen as the axis, but as soon as Eriksen gets the ball, Yile will lean forward a little forward, which makes Eriksen very jealous and does not dare to pass the ball at will, resulting in a stalemate in the rhythm of the whole game, and the advantage is gradually biased to the side of Paris."

"Villas-Boas is going to fight hand-to-hand, they give up Yile on their side, and you give up the ball from both defenders, and fight for a striker."

"I have to say that this style of play works very well, at least Tottenham have begun to panic."

Yes, Tottenham are already panicking.

The most important change is that Tottenham have made more mistakes at the back, and they are under tremendous pressure in the face of high pressing in Paris, which has led to some signs of collapse in the central midfield.

The defenders are afraid to come out, and if they concede in the ribs, Paris will launch a direct counter-attack, which is not good news for Tottenham.

Steady! Steady!

Lloris roared loudly near the goal line.

But even so, the central midfield was still prone to mistakes, and the pressure from Paris prevented them from completing the pass smoothly.

At this moment, Danny. Ross made a huge mistake.

When he returned the ball, he miscalculated the position of his player, causing the direction to deviate.

The most terrible thing is that Mbappe is beside him, this guy completes the start in an instant, chases the ball directly, comes first, grabs the central defender, stabs the ball into the penalty area, and he jumps, dodges the slippery tackle, and kills it.

After entering the penalty area, Lloris had already rushed over, but Mbappe did not make any adjustments, pushed the ball with his left foot, and pushed the ball accurately under Lloris's armpit.

The ball rolled quickly into the bottom left corner, and Mbappe himself didn't look at the ball and rushed straight to the corner to celebrate.
