Chapter 0649 - Actually Fighting Defense?

"It can be seen that both sides are cautious." Di Wei commented.

"It's also very important to fight for the ball in midfield." Duan Huo added, "Barcelona has put up three midfielders who can fight and grab, and Arsenal has put five midfielders!" ”

Xavi was plagued by injuries, and Rijkaard brought on the more capable Van Bommel, Edmilson and Deco, and used Messi and Iniesta as substitutes, with the aim of making it clear.

As for Arsenal, apart from the young Fabregas who is the playmaker's midfielder, the rest of the squad includes the physical and strong Ljungberg, the seemingly mobile Gilberto, and the wing-back Pires and Hleb.

The movement of the quartet was equally impressive, with one of them being a typical sweeping midfielder, while the remaining three were all wing-backs known for their physical prowess.

Among them, although Ljungberg stands in the position of the midfielder, he must not easily ignore his attacking ability.

However, while strengthening the defense, it is also destined that the offense of both sides will be affected to a certain extent.

Fifteen minutes later, everyone watching was stunned.

"Ebue! It's Eboue again, he blocks Ronaldinho! ”

"Eboue is Arsenal's right-back, only 23 years old, and he is a talented player that has been unearthed by Arsene Wenger!"

"Campbell has been injured frequently, Ashley Cole has been out for half a season, Senderos is overwhelmed, and only Toure and Eboue have performed really well!"

"I have to say, the professor's vision is really amazing!"

Everyone was amazed by Ebue's miraculous performance, but Zhuo Cunzhi couldn't help but think of Xiao Luo's sleepy appearance in the morning.

The next moment, Zhuo Cunzhi looked at Xiao Luo and rubbed his eyes.

This guy ......

I'm afraid I haven't woken up yet!

However, he is not qualified to say Xiao Luo, because he is also a little sleepy.

Fifteen minutes passed, and Ronaldo failed to create a threat, and neither did he.

Unlike Xiao Luo, no one will blame him, because what he is facing

Ash. Licole!

Actually, Ashley. Cole is 26 years old, only three years older than Eboue and Zhuo Cunzhi.

Now he can't be regarded as at his peak, but he is not a newcomer.

At this stage, he has become the Premier League's No. 1 full-back and a strong contender for the world's No. 1 full-back!

You've met your opponent!

This guy is obviously recovering from a serious injury, and he can show such a state in the first Champions League final, which is really amazing.

In the middle, Van Bommel has both offensive and defensive attributes, but in the Champions League final, only a strong defense remains.

As a result, the heavy responsibility of organizing the attack in the midfield is all pressed on Deco!

Luckily, Deco found himself not letting a few people target him.

Unfortunately, there was Gilberto standing in front of him!

Where Brazilians walk, it's like an invisible wall, indestructible to fire and impermeable!

"Samuel, you and Xiao Luo switch places." Rijkaard made an immediate adjustment.

"No problem!" Eto'o immediately agreed.

When Xiao Luo returns to the middle lane, he has more room to move.

He can help Deco organize the midfield when he steps back, and he is a direct threat as soon as he advances!

On the other side, Samuel Eto'o is also a high-quality winger, and Rijkaard believes there will be absolutely no problem with him playing against Eboue.

Rijkaard's idea was good, but he ignored two important issues

First, why can't Xiao Luo deal with Eboue?

Second, what is the strength of Eboue?

Ten minutes later, Rijkaard had an answer.

Xiao Luo reached the middle lane and was killed by Gilberto along with Deco!

"Fake......" Rijkaard shook his head, a little unable to accept reality.

On the other hand, Eto'o has forced Eboue several times one-on-one, but he has not been able to take advantage of anything!

This young man was unexpectedly unknown before!

In the middle, the African Cheetahs didn't take advantage of Campbell and Toure.

Although he is not very happy, he can accept it.

After all, Arsenal's two major central defenders are already successful stars, and before he got old, Campbell was the first central defender in the Premier League!

He didn't take advantage of the middle and was a little annoyed and arrogant when he got to the wing.

He was annoyed that he didn't play well and didn't create chances in the middle.

In this day and age, many people can see that tactics are more and more inclined to the wings, but more and more tough players still regard playing in the middle as a goal in life.

Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and biasing towards the tigers, those who can perform well in the middle are the real superstars!

Now on the flank, against a young man, Eto'o inevitably writes about his arrogance.

It is also because of this that Eto'o was a little frightened when Eboue kept up with his speed, blocked his attacks again and again, and defeated him again and again.

It was only then that Eto'o realized that there were many more talents in the world than he had imagined!

You must know that in this Champions League, Arsenal's backline has not conceded a goal!

In other words, Eboue, as a right-back, completely blocked Zinedine Zidane of Real Madrid, Nedved of Juventus and Riquelme of Villarreal!

Although all three of them are midfield masters, they are all left midfielders in the current position of the team!

Eto'o doesn't pay much attention to these statistics, but he can also know through specific feelings that this Ebue is not an opponent that he can easily defeat!

For a moment, Eto'o was at an impasse.

The fans outside the stadium looked at the situation and were a little unacceptable.

"The two strongest offensive teams in Europe actually fought their defenses in the Champions League final?!"

There are quite a few fans, especially French fans, who feel cheated.

Of course, teams like Barcelona and Arsenal, even if they compete defensively, will never put on a big bus like Chelsea.

However, the attack of both sides was blocked, which was destined to affect the excitement of the game.

Fans who are looking forward to a big offensive battle can't accept such a game.

Especially if you can't accept a score like 0:0!

As if hearing the call of his compatriot, Pires suddenly broke through Edmilson's defence and fired a pass to Ljungberg.

The defensive force was attracted to Pires, and Ljungberg received the ball with ease.

Belletti was a little panicked, not just because he was caught off guard, but more because he was facing Ljungberg.

It's not that he ran away from the Swedes, mainly because Ljungberg has always played right midfield before!

As the right side, Belletti has been studying Pires's information!

Who would have thought that Ljungberg suddenly played at the back, and suddenly cut forward in the game and ran to the left side!

Was this also premeditated?

Belletti didn't know the answer, he only knew that in the moment he was stunned, Ljungberg had broken through him.

"Ljungberg! He broke through Belletti's defense! It was a cross......

"Henry! Henry, he received the ball! ”
