Chapter 127: Giving Back to the Other in His Way (I)
Arsene Wenger was depressed, very depressed.
At half-time, the old fox, known as the football world, walked around the lounge alone - he could never have imagined that Hamburg, who were crushed by Borussia Dortmund in the last game of the Bundesliga, would be able to lead by two goals in the first half?
Take a closer look at those two goals, it's really - it's so depressing!
There is nothing to say about Ling Feng's goal, after all, it was an absolute world wave, but what about the goal scored by Baron? - God testifies, no, God that old guy deserves to die, this is clearly his gift to the Hamburg team!
Wenger was depressed, why not give such a good gift to himself? It's just that at this time, even Wenger and Ling Feng didn't expect that in the second half, God's favor really reversed......
Replacing the inactive striker Platt, Arsene Wenger brought on Thierry Henry, hoping that his trident with Nicolas Anelka and Bergkamp could tear through the Hamburg defence.
The two-goal lead in the first half was a big deal of luck, but it was enough to make the Hamburg players start to love the silver trophy – it seems that Hamburg has never lifted the League Cup in their history.
Even Ling Feng was thinking about how to push the remaining forty-five minutes past at this time, and how to play when he met Bayern in the last game.
But at this time, God played a joke with everyone - or rather, God's old bastard simply looked at the goal to the right of Camp Nou - that is, in the first half, David. He-Man's guard of the gate was not happy.
At the beginning of the second half, Henry's joining made the Hamburg team's backline very tight, and Vieira could only choose one of the three people to mark - so he chose Anelka, because in Vieira's eyes, Bergkamp is the most lethal of the three, but at the same time, experience and technology are at the peak, and he can't prevent it at all; Henry, on the other hand, was a little weaker than Anelka - so he specifically targeted Anelka, who he was capable of being responsible for, and asked the other defenders to use crowd tactics to mark the other two.
Vieira was right, Anelka had the ball under his defense significantly less than in the first half of the game, Ling Feng sometimes returned to the defense to interfere with Bergkamp, coupled with the close pressing of Holler Bach and Habtchev, even the Ice Prince, there was no good chance to break through with the ball, so he had to pass back to his teammates.
At this time, Henry's role was revealed, although he was not a central striker, but he was Henry's favorite striker, he constantly controlled the ball laterally, pulling the gap in the Hamburg team's back line - this style of play was the most terrifying thing about Henry in later generations.
Hamburg's right-back Domi is already crazy by Henry - this little guy doesn't look very old, but the work under his feet is very fine, and more importantly, Henry can suddenly do a high-speed start to get rid of the defenders around him - Domi's reflexes and start-up speed are really not comparable to Henry......
It's just that Arsenal's offense has strengthened, but the Hamburg team is not blindly defending - as long as there is Ling Feng in front of the fight, any back line must consider the power of this-stirring stick - it is really indecent to compare our No. 1 Chinese player to a-stirring stick, but the work he is doing now is indeed the work of a dung stirr......
Centre-back Adams and midfielder Gislarsen are going crazy!
As long as their speed is a little slower, the ball can be broken by Ling Feng immediately, on this line in the middle, Ling Feng alone plays a key role, the ball can not form a small cooperation in the back of Arsenal to attract Hamburg's firepower, because often the ball is not passed to four or five feet and is destroyed by Ling Feng - and in the tenth minute of the first half, Adams stopped the ball a little bigger, was broken by Ling Feng from behind, and turned around with a strong volley hit the crossbar and popped up the bottom line, Scared all Arsenal supporters in a cold sweat.
If this goal is scored again, then this game will not be played again......
The Hamburg fans sang the song "Ling is the prince Baron is the elephant" and cheered on the sidelines, although the second half of the game was less than fifteen minutes old, but the Hamburg fans were happy to believe that the balance of victory had tipped in their favor and that Hamburg would win the second cup under Ling Feng's leadership.
The Bundesliga championship plus the UEFA Cup champion, although it is not as dazzling as the Bundesliga champion and the European Champions Cup champion in 83, but if you add a German Cup champion - no matter how famous the "double crown" is, it is not as good as the "triple crown"!
But it was at this time that something happened that left all the Hamburg fans stunned.
Seventeen minutes into the second half, Anelka forced a shot off Vieira and bounced off the line, and Arsenal were awarded a corner.
For Arsenal, who have been unable to attack for a long time, this is a very rare scoring opportunity.
Of course, the Hamburg team withdrew to the vicinity of the penalty area except for Hao Haidong, and Baron and Ling Feng simply stood in the penalty area, one to guard Adams, who was the same height, and the other to guard Bergkamp, who looked harmless to humans and animals......
Whoever is going to be deceived by Bergkamp's unchanging countenance is an absolute idiot - the title of Ice Prince is not for nothing.
"Don't give Bergkamp a chance to touch the ball in the box!" Before the game, Ling Feng said this when he was assigning tasks.
Mawson takes a corner, but instead of Adams and Bergkamp, it lands – Anelka on the periphery!
At this time, there was a serious hole in the marking of the Hamburg team! There was no one to keep an eye on Anelka, who was on the outside of the box - Vieira, who was supposed to be marking him, was attracted by the taller Henry, and Anelka pulled out a volley directly with his foot unguarded!
Everyone thought that the Hamburg team was finished, Anelka's shot was very accurate, the ball flew to the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball, and Coltz only made a slight save - if it was the same Coltz before, I am afraid this goal would not have had time to react.
But it was obvious that Colts couldn't reach the ball, but just as the ball was about to get into the gate, a figure suddenly stood up and blocked the ball with his chest!
Baron! The tallest guy in the Hamburg team made his second big contribution of the game for the Hamburg team at this time!
But wait...... the ball hit Baron's chest with a muffled thud, but it didn't bounce far and landed in front of him - and there happened to be a man in that position - Adams, who was guarded by Baron!
All Adams had to do was push the ball into the empty net......
1:2! In the seventeenth minute of the second half, Adams, who is also 1.93 meters, scored his first goal with his foot in the League Cup, narrowing the gap between the two teams to one point!
Looking at the Arsenal players celebrating wildly, the Hamburg fighters had a very helpless feeling - the chin just now was doing his best, and Colts did his best - but if Colts didn't make a save, maybe Adams wouldn't have scored this goal......
The gap was reduced to one goal, and Arsenal were in a state of flux – but then their attack suddenly changed!
The Bergkamp position, which had been rushing forward, retreated, and the forward line composed of two French youngsters, Henry and Anelka, rushed to the front, and the three of them launched a fierce attack on the Hamburg team's defense in an inverted "pin"!
Arsene Wenger's move is very obvious, giving Bergkamp plenty of range to run, allowing his awareness and experience to play a better role, and no one should be the Ice Prince is a point-grabbing center, he is the same as Robert. Baggio, like him, has a mastery of the ball and a magical pass.
Doing so forces Vieira's position to move to the side - but there is no way, just like Tian Ji horse racing, Vieira and Anelka are only in the middle, while Bergkamp and Ling Feng are in the middle of the horse, the middle of the horse against the top of the team, the chance of winning is really very small, it is better to let Vieira to mark Henry or Anelka of the same level as him, so that the probability of defensive success is greater.
Ling Feng didn't defend back, the lessons of the previous games told him that there was no point in simply defending at this time, and there was less than half an hour left in the game, and it was impossible to defend every attack - even if he went to mark Bergkamp, there was no guarantee that there would not be a chance for him to break through or shoot for half an hour.
Thinking of the Ice Prince's two world-class goals, Ling Feng felt chills in his heart - but Arsenal's defenders felt the same when they thought of Ling Feng's grocery store-like shooting juggling......
Whether you can defend Bergkamp depends on the defenders of the Hamburg team, even if you use crowd tactics to stop Bergkamp!
It's just that this method is the same as Arsenal's defenders, once Ling Feng gets the ball, there are at least three defenders around him to force him, as a last resort, Ling Feng can only pass the ball to Hao Haidong in front, but under the care of Arsenal's remaining defenders, Hao Haidong really can't get the ball as he wants.
The game fell into a stalemate, but from a technical and statistical point of view, it was obvious that Arsenal had an advantage, especially in their attack on the right side, Henry was not guarded by a player of the same level, and Hollerbach was played by him - if it weren't for Ling Feng's repeated instructions before the game not to make meaningless fouls and control his emotions, the yellow card king would definitely stretch his foot with steel spikes to Henry's calf at this time......
Unlike ordinary wingers, Henry was originally a center forward, although he was active on the right side, but he rarely broke through to the bottom line, always controlled the ball in a chic manner, and carried out a small range of passes and receptions with teammates such as Bergkamp who came up to respond, followed by a sudden quick start, breaking through to the Hamburg team's penalty area and choosing to hit the goal or pass directly.
But in general, although the Arsenal team also got the opportunity to shoot because of Henry's breakthroughs in the next game, it didn't have much effect, after all, Henry was on the side, and the power and angle of the ball were within Coulz's control - but everyone didn't dare to be careless, and Bergkamp, who had been dormant, was Arsenal's trump card!
Of course, at this time, the Hamburg team's attack was not idle, although the number of times was relatively small, but it was more threatening than Arsenal - after all, Henry's shot did not pose a threat to Coltz, while Hao Haidong had a shot on goal to hit David. Seaman hit a Arsenal fan who almost went into cardiac arrest......
It's the goalpost again! Now Hao Haidong and Ling Feng despise this goal together, so damn it, this goal is like an invisible protective cover, Arsenal did not break it in the first half, Ling Feng hit a crossbar in the second half, and then Baron's header assisted, Hao Haidong inserted a fallen tackle and kicked the ball on the post?!
Feng Shui takes turns, and it is the turn of the Hamburg team to choose the luck of the back!
Just when the Hamburg fans were still sulking at that post, the situation on the pitch changed again - and this time, it was Bergkamp who scored the goal, and the way he shot was talked about by the Hamburg fans - half-turned and split the ball!
Except for Ling Feng, no one thought that there was a second person in the world who could use this far more difficult than the tail of the ox, and even Ling Feng himself had to admit that there was a lot of luck with the goal scored by Bayern, and if he was asked to do it again, there was a chance that he would not be able to do it again......
But Bergkamp made it, although in the memory of the "previous life", Bergkamp only used it once in his life in the inconsequential game against Newcastle, but now, Ling Feng forced him to come up with this trick that should have belonged to the Ice Prince in advance!
Thierry Henry picked up the ball on the left and this time it wasn't Bergkamp who came up to pick it up, it was Anelka!
Anelka did not pause after taking the ball, but directly stuffed it to Bergkamp in the middle of the penalty area, the ice prince leaned on Henkoz behind him at this time, pulled the ball counterclockwise with his right foot, but the ball rolled into the penalty area along the counterclockwise bypass Henkamp, and the counterclockwise spinning Bergkamp suddenly disguised, bypassing the last line of defense of the Hamburg team from the other side, followed up and gently pushed, and sent the ball into the gate guarded by Koltz!
