Chapter 611: Intermission
Cuadrado had taken the shot in a hurry, from a good angle, and Pickford easily cleared the ball with both hands.
Then, Pickford kicked the ball forward with a big kick and launched a long pass to play a quick counter-attack!
In the final minutes of the first half, Colombia withstood England's ferocious attack, and the first half ended with England leading by three goals.
The players from both sides returned to the dressing room, and the fans had time to reflect on the three goals in the half!
The English national television commentator asked guest Lineker: "Sir, what do you think of the first half of the game for Jones!" ”
Lineker said: "Jones' first half could have been described as perfect, and his two wonderful goals not only showed that he was in great form, but also surprised us that his technique seemed to have improved again!
Judging from his current state, this World Cup definitely belongs to him, and it definitely belongs to England! ”
England are strong in attack, scoring 14 goals in their last few games, ahead of all teams, which gives Lineker a lot of confidence.
Jones' form is not to mention, with a staggering seven goals in three games, and he is England's most in-form striker.
Jamie Vardy was also in good form, and in this game he used his own goal to bring his goal to two.
England's striker is in such a competitive state that he certainly wins the world's favor.
The Russian state TV commentator said: "Colombia didn't play any momentum today, they have been pressed and beaten by England!" ”
…………
In the Colombian locker room, the players were depressed, the atmosphere was solemn, and many players hung their heads.
After sighing in his heart, coach Pekerman began to comfort his players and said: "It's not that we didn't do well, but the other side is too strong!" ”
"Jones and Vardy are in such good form, and with their form in this game, whoever meets them will only lose!"
"This is our last game of the World Cup, so in the second half you enjoy the joy of football and put the outcome aside!"
What can he do now, attack it, who will contain Vardy and Jones?!
Let's continue to put most of our forces on defense, and the media and fans are going to say that their tactics are too conservative!
There was a lively atmosphere in the England dressing room, with his team-mates congratulating Jones and his hair messed up again.
Southgate, who has always been serious, looked at the people who were making trouble, and also laughed rarely, Southgate was in a happy mood now.
'We did a very good job in the first half, both defensively and offensively!'
Gareth Southgate summed up the first half and then began to plan his tactics for the second half: "Slow down, try to keep the football under your feet, you have to be patient. ”
He again asked Vardy to cut back on forced breaks, but made no demands on Jones.
…………
After a fifteen-minute half-time break, players from both sides were back on the pitch and the second half was about to begin.
The English national TV commentator was in a good mood today, and he jokingly asked the guest Lineker: "Sir, do you think Jones can score a hat-trick in this game?!" ”
Lineker laughed and said: "With the form he showed in the first half, it wasn't a big problem to score a hat-trick and I would have liked him to be replaced by Gareth Southgate sooner rather than later and save the goal for the next game. ”
I wonder what journalists from other countries will think when they hear what they are talking about.
"Tick!"
As the referee's whistle blew and the game resumed, England, who were the first to serve, were in no hurry to push the ball into the opposition half, keeping Southgate's half-time request in mind to slow down and keep the ball under their feet as much as possible.
On the pitch, Colombia did nothing under England's dense defence, and Jesse Lingard won the ball at the back again and again, and then launched a quick counter-attack with long balls.
Colombia learned their lesson that if England players take control of the football, they will immediately resort to foul tactics.
In the 52nd minute of the second half, Lingard kicked a free kick into the Colombian penalty area, and Kane used the body of the opposing defender to jump up and hit the goal with a header!
The soccer ball flies off the crossbar and out of the bottom line!
In the 57th minute of the second half, Jones took the ball on the left side and was about to break forward, but was directly brought down by the opposing defender.
England won another free-kick in front.
This time Jones took the free-kick himself, he sent the ball to the back post, and Vardy flew forward and volleyed it directly!
The soccer ball grabs the post and slides out of the door!
In the 63rd minute of the second half, it was Raheem Sterling and Kane who combined in the middle, and Kane knocked the ball back to Sterling.
"Smack"
Raheem Sterling made a diagonal pass, Vardy shook off the opposing full-back, stepped forward to control the ball, and then suddenly cut inside the box and fired a powerful shot!
The soccer ball hits Mojica's lap and pops up in the penalty area!
The faces of the Colombian fans suddenly changed as Jones and Barrios were racing on the pitch towards the rolling football!
Barrios's speed was Jones' opponent, and when Jones was about to dribble into the box again, he stretched out his left hand and grabbed Jones' shirt.
After a whole season of training in the Premier League, Jones has long been aware of these tricks of defenders, and he quickly accelerated and broke free from Barrios's hands!
Because Jones was so powerful, Barrios almost fell on the turf!
After shaking off Pebarios, Jones brought the ball to a steady stop, stood in place, and watched the situation around him!
As soon as Arias' nervous heart relaxed, he was afraid that Jones would continue to advance at high speed after taking the ball, so he could only use fouls to stop Chen Fan from advancing.
Now that you've stopped, I'm going to defend you this time!
Arias took two steps forward and then stopped moving forward, standing two meters away from Jones.
It's a standard defensive distance.
Jones glanced up at the middle and right sides, his center of gravity suddenly pressed to the left front, and he rested lightly on the inside of his right foot on the football.
Arias realized something, and he quickly moved to his right to intercept Jones with Sanchez on the sideline.
At this moment, Jones's center of gravity suddenly retracted, and he took advantage of the trend to the right front.
At the same time as the center of gravity changed, his right foot also changed, reaching out his right foot and gently flicking it outward on the football with the outside of his instep!
Jones got rid of Arias!
"Beautiful!" There were England fans in the stands shouting loudly.
However, instead of rushing to the Colombian penalty area with the football, Jones opted for a pass!
He looked up in the middle and on the right before he shook Arias, with Kane in the middle of the pitch of course being the focal point of the opposition's defence, but Jamie Vardy on the right was defended by Mojika alone.
Jones picked up the ball on the left, and Colombia's defensive focus was of course on the left and center, and there was an emptiness on the right.
Jones shifted his kick and the ball made a wonderful arc in the air and flew five meters in front of Vardy!
Vardy would not let go of such an opportunity, immediately started at high speed, and left Mojica behind him in three steps!
"Beautiful!" The commentator exclaimed: "Jones moved the ball to the right, and now we will see what Vardy is going to do with it!" "Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
