Chapter 580: The Club World Cup journey begins
While Atletico Madrid is advancing on all fronts, Feng Quan, who is the biggest driving force behind the team's consecutive wins, has also received good news from the system.
When Feng Quan scored two goals in the match against Villarreal, he immediately received a message from the system in his head: "Congratulations to Su for breaking the 100-goal mark in the Europa League." In order to allow the host to create greater brilliance in future competitions, the system hereby rewards 10 skill points to help the host further improve their strength. ”
At first, Feng Quan was still a little confused when he first received this message, but if you calculate carefully, the 76 goals he scored in La Liga in the past two seasons, plus the 24 goals he scored for Hamburg two years ago, is not exactly 100.
Counting the rewards issued by the system this time, Feng Quan, who already has 39 skill points, has finally made up enough skill points to buy [Healing Materia Medica]. In this way, even if Feng Quan is injured due to an inevitable foul by an opponent's malicious foul, the skill effect of [Rehabilitation Materia Medica] can help him greatly shorten the time required for recovery.
In fact, since encountering multiple violations by "Villain" Pepe in the "Madrid Derby", Feng Quan, who was worried about being violated by his opponent and being injured and missing the game, has been reserved in many games and has not done his best. Otherwise, in the current environment where most La Liga teams will choose to "give up strategically" when they encounter Atletico Madrid, Feng Quan's goals in the first 15 league games may far exceed the number of 25.
Because of this, whenever the team takes the lead or the game is decided, Feng Quan will try to choose as many ways as possible to pass the ball for his teammates, or insert into the penalty area and wait for the opportunity to grab points, instead of choosing to break through with the ball as before.
Although neither the team manager, his teammates nor Atletico Madrid's supporters have any objections to Feng Quan's change, and even Diego Simeone is very fond of seeing Feng Quan play like this, if Feng Quan chooses from the heart, he still likes to see the frustration on his opponent's face after being broken by himself.
Now, when Feng Quan has finally scraped together enough skill points to buy [Rehabilitation Materia Medica], although he can't continue to use the dribble breakthrough as his offensive means as before, at least if the conditions allow, he can still appropriately increase the number of dribble breakthroughs.
However, since Feng Quan has not suffered any injuries at present, and his "physical condition" is also very good, he is not in a hurry to buy [Rehabilitation Materia Medica] but is ready to buy it again in the future once he encounters an injury.
…………
On December 16, 15 minutes before the start of the semi-finals of the Club World Cup, in the dressing room of the Mexican Blue Cross team.
"Simply comparing the overall strength of the team, Atletico Madrid, as the European champion, is at least one notch higher than us." Blue Cross manager Luis Fernando said with a serious face.
"But you should never forget that football is round. If we choose to go head-to-head with them, there is no doubt that we will die a terrible death. However, if we can stand on the defensive and make the most of the fast and flexible nature of our Mexican football in the process of attacking and defending, we will not be without a fight. ”
After a pause, Luis Fernando continued: "Moreover, Atletico Madrid's attack still relies more on the individual ability of the Chinese striker called Feng in the front line to tear apart the defense, while the organizational ability of the midfield is not up to the level of a European champion. ”
"Therefore, as long as we can stifle the wind, the pressure on our defence will be greatly reduced, and we will win more opportunities to counter-attack." With that, Luis Fernando glanced at his assistant.
After seeing Luis Fernando's gesture, the assistant hurriedly picked up the information in his hand and said: "According to the video analysis of the last ten games of the Atletico Madrid team, the Chinese style has gradually changed from a breakthrough striker to an all-round striker. ”
"Last season, whenever the Chinese wind got the ball, there was a more than 60% probability that he would choose to break through with the ball; So far this season, the probability of him choosing to break through in attack has dropped to about 35%, and more than 50% of the probability he will attract the attention of the opponent's defense, transfer the ball to a better teammate, and then insert himself into the box to wait for the opportunity to grab the point with his strong physical fitness. At this point, the assistant nodded like Luis Fernando, signaling that he had finished speaking.
"Therefore, no matter what position the Chinese style is, as long as the person in charge of that position pays close attention to him, everyone else should be optimistic about the opponent they are responsible for, and don't ignore the person who needs to be responsible because of his attack."
After a pause, Luis Fernando continued: "However, once the Chinese wind is inserted into the penalty area, at least two defenders must be closely marked against him, otherwise with his bounce power, even the goalkeeper can not guarantee an advantage when fighting for the high ball." As for the other people's defensive ......"
…………
With the referee's whistle, the semi-finals of the Club World Cup between Mexico's Blue Cross and Atletico Madrid finally began.
After the start of the game, both Feng Quan himself and his teammates had a very strange feeling.
When facing other opponents, whenever Feng Quan gets the ball in the front court, the opponent will send at least two players to press him closely, and the overall formation will also compress towards the area where Feng Quan is located.
Today's Blue Cross team, although they also let the defenders in charge of Feng Quan's area mark them, they did not press closely, and their overall formation did not change much because of Feng Quan. Except for the person in charge of keeping an eye on Fengquan, the rest of the Blue Cross players stayed in their area honestly, keeping their eyes on their target with vigilant eyes.
Although the Blue Cross's game strategy made it more difficult for Feng Quan to pass the ball for his teammates, it also made it more difficult for Feng Quan to break through with the ball.
So, less than 3 minutes after the start of the first half of the game, Feng Quan staged a good show in the left area of the front field that he was most familiar with after three people in a row, and then used a curling ball to break the opponent's goal.
Although Luis Fernando came to his senses after the team conceded a goal first, and asked his players to double or even triple the wind Quan, how can they stop the wind that is already in form?
In the 17th minute of the first half, Feng Quan relied on his speed advantage to force an overtake, get rid of the bag of two opponents, and enter the 30-meter area of the Blue Cross team, and then chose to cut inside.
In the face of the frontal block of the central defender, Feng Quan first deceived the opponent by pretending to pass the ball to the left side and shifted the center of gravity, and then suddenly flicked the ball sideways with his right foot to the right front, and then quickly picked up his right leg and hit a powerful heavy cannon at a distance of 25 or 6 meters from the goal.
Before the goalkeeper could make the save, the ball kicked by the wind had already drilled into the upper right corner of the goal with a whirring sound......
