Volume 6 Chapter 53 Yellow Ambition

Yellow smoke clouds filled the air, the stands were connected, and the Ukrainian players on the field were all dressed in yellow, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't even tell where their boundaries were.

They rushed forward, they rushed to the ball, and maybe what they wanted to say was that here, Bath Arena, is our home stadium, our turf.

After receiving the ball, Mackin sent it back to the back line, but the yellow smoke did not stop, but continued to rush towards the England back line.

Dare to rush like this, they rely on the momentum of the home field.

"Ukraine started to press the whole court at the beginning", Zhan Jun said in surprise, "The momentum is very strong, and the fans in the stadium are also cheering for them, as if they want to swallow England in one bite"

Rio Ferdinand didn't have time to adjust to the ball and sent it to the feet of Glen Johnson on the wing, because the opposition striker came up too quickly.

"Glen Johnson, advancing with the ball on the wing, Konoplyanka quickly blocked it, kicked it back, and then handed it to Ferdinand, yes, now England has to be a little patient, can't concede the ball easily, let Ukraine steal confidence", Huang Jianxiang explained.

Barry dragged behind and Milner quickly pressed up, which is where he is better than Lampard now, and he has more running ability, Barry received the ball behind the opposition's two centre-forwards and quickly turned to Makqin in front.

As soon as Makqin stretched out his foot, he was knocked to the ground and fell to the ground, and Timoshchuk did not show any mercy, as if he wanted to give him a dismount.

"Roar......", "......", two different voices came from the stands and the referee's whistle, one was shouting loudly, and the other was blowing a foul.

There are always some at the home whistle, and this kind of ordinary foul, naturally, will not give cards, but it is enough to achieve the goal, and this is where Ukraine is smart.

Then, I saw that every time England advanced, Ukraine always had to come to a foul of all kinds, not big, but tireless, and body collisions were everywhere.

"Today is Ukraine's home stadium, and the referee's scale is a bit wide", Zhan Jun commented, "This is very suitable for Ukraine's play, and it is a little unfavorable for England's ground attack"

In the past few minutes, Mack Qin tried to pass a few direct passes, a big man like Carroll, it was very difficult to hold the ball with his back, Rooney wanted to plug in the starting speed, the route was stuck, even if he was lucky, it was also a push-pull card, which just made you uncomfortable and couldn't get up.

The space is extremely cramped!

"Lala, Ukraine", "Come on, Ukraine", from time to time there were shouts and cheers from the stands, although Mackin could not understand Ukrainian, but the name of the country could still be understood.

Especially once Ukraine intercepted England's pass and put it into a counterattack, although it was limited to the level of passing and the success rate was low, every time the pitch was like a riot.

That's the law on the pitch, running, always making up for a lot of things.

"Ukraine's counterattack ......", Zhan Jun suddenly shouted, Carol took the ball with his back and was once again cut off by Kacherid and Yarmolenko behind him, Ukraine obviously practiced the counterattack routine, Tymoshchuk retreated sideways to take the ball, and drove to the left side with a big foot.

The striker's Devic quickly set the wing, right-back Glen Johnson had not returned, and Ferdinand quickly moved to the side to protect, but at this time it showed Ferdinand's age and weakness.

He was experienced and wanted to get stuck in position, but Devic didn't play any feints at all, catching the ball and turning around to take a step to get the ball five meters away, and then it was a wild start.

"Devic, Devic ......", "Boom", Ferdinand quickly turned around and tried to pull him back, but he was still half a step slow, allowing him to form a breakthrough directly from the wing.

"Oops, Devic has broken through", Zhan Jun shouted, "England is in danger"

Devic quickly advanced from the flank, looking up from time to time to observe the situation in the box, and Terry had no choice but to move from the center of the box to block his breakthrough.

As for the other striker Milevski, he couldn't take care of it, and Devic saw that he didn't drag the mud on the edge of the penalty area on the left side, and directly rolled the ball around Terry and crossed the box.

"Good ball, Milevsky......", Huang Jianxiang shouted, only to see the huge penalty area, Milevsky was telling to plug in, Joe Hart hurriedly moved back from the near post, trying to remedy.

Danger is just around the corner!

The yellow fans of the entire stadium stood up, ready to cheer for the goal, and Capello's heart tightened, this goal is going to let Ukraine score, and England will be even more difficult to play.

Milevski seemed to see the goal, he ran into the box, met the ball, swung his right leg, and if he let the arch of his foot hit it, it was definitely a shot with a great probability of breaking the goal.

However, at this point, the other foot took the first step and slid out in front of him, touching the ball awkwardly, changing the direction of the ball and sending Milevsky into the air.

The ball, slid through the door, and slipped out of the bottom line from the other!

"Barry, Barry, life-saving sliding tackle, this tackle is too crucial", Zhan Jun exclaimed loudly with palpitations, "If you let Milevski form a shot, Joe Hart will probably have to give an account"

"Hehe, don't die in a big disaster, don't die in a big disaster", Zhang Lu said with a smile, "England also have to pay attention, Ukraine will play your two fullbacks' counterattack today, this time they really made a threat"

Ukraine's head coaches Hamlin and Milevsky are holding their heads, and it is estimated that it is a pity that they can fill a carriage, what a good opportunity, just a little bit!

"Pretty ......," shouted Joe Hart as he ran to Barry's side, still lying on the ground panting, apparently the chase had almost killed him.

Joe Hart pulled him up and then patted him the back, the two of them are Manchester City teammates, and they have to rely on their own people to help.

"Why can't we go up on both sides together", while running back to defend the corner, Mack Qin discussed with Ferdinand and Terry, "It's dangerous to play like this, if you let them score first, they will be more confident in defending, Gerrard and Milner are on the right, Glen Johnson can properly recycle and protect the defense"

"I think Mark was right, it was too dangerous", Terry said first, he thought he was going to concede the ball, "look at their stance today, we have to be a little bit patient with them"

Ferdinand also nodded solemnly, he was the one who was broken through just now, "I'll go and explain to Glenn Johnson, I believe the boss can understand"

Corners and set-pieces, Ukraine obviously also practiced, they penalized the back point, resulting in England not being able to clear the ball at the first time, and there was a lot of noise in the penalty area for a while, but fortunately, Joe Hart made a decisive attack and knocked the ball out of the penalty area with a punch.

Timoshchuk directly hit Makqin with his body, and a volley came, although it was an anti-aircraft gun, but England, who really hit it, was a little embarrassed for a while.

"Hey, referee, isn't this obvious physical assault a foul?" , Mark got up and began to put pressure on the referee, "If this continues, they will probably use this place as a wrestling ring, anyway, the Ukrainians are better at this"

Kasai raised his whistle and walked away directly, ignoring this stubble at all, which should mean that the whistle in my hand has its own measure.

I don't know if some referees will be secretly cool when they scold these superstars, anyway, Ma Qin did hold his breath for a while, and gave out a classic national scold for free in his heart.

These referees eat and drink on the host's turf, and there will always be some partiality, or fairness, as long as the scale of the two sides is the same, no one can say anything.

Isn't the World Cup in South Korea in '02 an obvious example? , as soon as the whistle is sent, relying on running and pressing, it can indeed smooth out a lot of technical and tactical gaps.

"Calm down, calm down", although his heart is clear, Ma Qin still achieved the role of a core to stabilize the morale of the army, pressing down with both hands to keep his teammates calm.

Now, what they need is patience and not be provoked by Ukraine, otherwise they will be really passive.

Joe Hart didn't open his foot and passed directly to Mackin who retreated from outside the box to receive the ball, and he waved his hand to Milner to press up, but he came back to control the tempo.

Bobby Charlton nodded secretly in his heart after seeing it in the stands, Mackin became more and more calm, Capello didn't adjust at all, he automatically began to correct his tactics.

This is a great midfielder, many times equivalent to half a manager, otherwise why could Hadji be called a "midfield conspirator"?

Ukraine's double strikers are still pressing up front, but Mackin's style of play of retreat control is familiar to England in South Africa, and the whole team has begun to cooperate with him to push up through passes.

The ball kept passing from Mackqin's feet, and after he ran, it was soon back at his feet, and they all kicked the ball, never dragging the mud and water, and they had no chance to break the ball.

Although the process was a little more complicated, the ball was at its own feet, and Ukraine did not get any chance to break the ball and counterattack, so it could only be reluctantly pressed back.

"Mr. Ma slowly brought the situation under control", Huang Jianxiang explained, "He retreated a little deeper, most of them were horizontal passes and return passes, and he was not in a hurry to pass forward, and he kept pulling Ukraine's running left and right"

"It's going to be like this", Zhang Lu nodded, "At the beginning, Ukraine must have been very fierce, and you went straight to him and estimated that it was their favorite, so they wanted to break the ball and hit your counterattack, and now at this time, grinding it can not only kill their sharpness, but also stabilize England"

As he spoke, Mackqin, who finally pushed the ball through the center circle through a few minutes of passing, finally changed his previous rhythm after receiving Rooney's return pass sideways in the middle.

He seized the opportunity to tear the Ukrainian middle laterally and did not return in time, and then followed closely with an outside instep to send the ball to the feet of Carol in front.

This was a big surprise for Timoshchuk, the ball crossed his side, he didn't have time to stretch his foot, and just as he turned his head to look at the ball, Makqin also took the opportunity to speed away from his marking.

"Mr. Ma, the middle lane is advancing", Zhan Jun immediately raised his voice, after watching Ma Qin play football for so long, he felt a little bit, what was the scene of his attack.

As soon as Macqin pointed to his front, Carol on his back gained experience, and directly knocked the ball back again, this time the speed was extremely fast, and Ukraine had not had time to close the circle.

Facing the ball, Mackin quickly pushed the arch of his foot, and the ball jumped to the left side at great speed, crossing two defensive lines, many people thought it was passed to Rooney, but Rooney did not run, which made the Ukrainian defense stunned.

However, Ashley Cole came out of the crowd and chased the ball directly to the bottom line!

"Ashley Cole ......", Zhan Jun shouted as he caught up with the ball, and the kick was a cross, Carroll and Gerrard were in the middle and at the back post, pressing side by side.

"Gerrard ......, ...... goal", this attack played extremely fast, Cole's pass also found Gerrard at the back post, but it may have been the defender jumping up in front of him who slightly affected his judgment, Gerrard did not hold the ball down in the end, and the ball ended up high over the crossbar.

"Oh ......", "Good ball......", "This is England's most dangerous attack since the opening", "It's the right ......"

The commentators from various countries on the commentary bench said one after another, and Mackin also applauded and cheered for his teammates who had just completed the shot, the rhythm is to suppress Ukraine with this rhythm......
