Chapter 142: The Last Laugh
If you want to break a point, you can't do it once in a while, and you have to crush the opponent's self-confidence with repeated shocks to destroy this point fundamentally. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In other words, you can have an easier choice but don't use it, aim a little, and die to the end!
The benefits of this are not on the table, but the risks are clear.
If the target is experienced and mentally good, then the attacker will have to perform better to continue, otherwise they will be reduced to bravery. This is one of them.
Although the opponent is more dependent on the system, people are not machines, and no one will be indifferent to the abuse of their teammates. In this way, the local advantage that has been easily established is likely to be destroyed by the opponent who quickly replenishes the defense, and in the end there is no rain in the thunder. This is the second one.
Arsenal's defensive quality at the moment is not comparable to that of the first half, and if the attacking approach is not effective, the possibility of the backline being blamed will be greatly increased. Although the team is a whole, the practice of only focusing on oneself and playing cool will obviously induce conflicts. This is the third.
With so many risks in front of us, the heart of the problem is already on the horizon.
Liability!
In the face of such a strong opponent, it is inevitable that some people will be afraid to make mistakes under heavy pressure, and it is often followed by the choice of handling the ball in a safe way. Without a strong sense of responsibility, without the courage to carry the team forward, without the adventurous spirit that is not afraid of challenges, everything will become mediocre.
After knowing what those guys were going to do, Ljungberg was not good.
Will it work?
This suspicion was unimaginable before, but after 45 minutes of play, it became very real.
After all, he is just a young man who has become famous in the Swedish league, and opposite him is a giant division with three World Footballer of the Year trophies, and the huge gap in aura has crushed his self-confidence first.
What else can you use to blow up your opponent in this case?
With a lot of questions and apprehension, he started the second half of his game.
It didn't take long for him to realize that he was thinking too much.
Arsenal's attacking right flank is known for its passing and cutting organization, and on the left flank it is dominated by individual attacks. Now Inter Milan took the initiative to recycle and let them out, and the back hand of the counterattack was placed on the right side of the team. As a result, Overmars can't do as he pleases, and he has undoubtedly become an important figure in supporting the team's attack, even if the defense is not timely, there are still people behind the scenes.
Got it. The Swede's newborn calf's strength that is not afraid of tigers is suddenly revealed, and it is a beautiful line change to pass with the ball at this time!
Inter Milan, who was in the transition between attack and defense, did not dare to hold up, and saw that his teammates were not rushed up to break the ball at the first time, and all the midfielders began to chase back quickly.
Ljungberg was also not carried away by the joy, and after a little observation, he avoided the middle and ribs where the defenders were clustered, and began to dribble the ball diagonally forward!
The ball was moving along the right-hand touchline, both vertically and horizontally, and the Swede was more than capable of taking the ball. The threats that can be created under the current circumstances are still limited. So after seeing that the backfield had formed a 5-on-3, the Inter players slowed down and waited for their teammates to make a contribution.
Arsenal's reinforcements were also slow to arrive.
At the beginning of this round, the goalkeeper counterattacked with a direct long-pass with a big foot, and then the first landing point Youmo responded without the slightest delay, and Ljungberg's breakthrough was also without any drag. As a result, only Bergkamp is the only one behind the two to provide support, and the other closest teammates are also twenty meters away!
3 against 5, against an Italian team known for its chain defense. In this case, even a die-hard Arsenal fan has a big question mark in his heart.
Will it work?
Ljungberg's next choice looks to further validate the merit of this fear. The atmosphere at Highbury Field, which had just boiled over, was a bit of a retreat.
Slowed down, turned, leaned on his opponent and kicked the ball back to Bergkamp from 10 yards away.
This is the safest thing to do, and it would have been understandable to sprint 30 metres with the ball at high speed, but it was a bit disappointing in the immediate situation.
Long distance return means attacking reshuffling. The 3-on-5 situation undoubtedly gives the opponent plenty of time to prepare.
Just as the fans were staring in anticipation of the performance of the star of the house, the unexpected happened!
Bergkamp stopped sideways in the face of the incoming ball, opened the angle and did not hesitate to kick a small arc!
No one did not understand the Dutchman's role in this team, so when it came to seeing Ljungberg forced to pass back and the ball handed over to him to control. Everyone began to look forward to his choice.
The result is just a stop-and-pass?
It's too, too, too ...... Hey, who's there?
On the right side of the big penalty area, You Mo arrived one step faster than his opponent!
In the sprint, the body jumps high, the arms are lightly extended, the left knee is raised, and the right foot is raised, and the whole person is like a goshawk with wings spread, soaring in the night sky of Highbury!
Relying on the inertia of the body to glide forward, the right foot touches the ball and starts to fall, and after a second, the man and the ball are still in the sea of green and alluring!
Be quiet.
Everyone's eyes widened and they couldn't speak.
It's obviously an action in a high-speed sprint, but why does it give people the feeling of freeze frame?
Why is it that his ground movements are clumsy and unusual, and when he is in the air, he makes people feel free?
Could it be that the so-called "flying man" can only show his talent in the air?
The quiet atmosphere that appeared at this time was a bit unharmonious, but fortunately, Ljungberg, who arrived in time, broke it all!
After completing the ball stop that everyone will never forget, Yu Mo completed his mission with very unpretentious movements.
Carrying the opponent, turning sideways, and nudging with one kick, Ljungberg kept the ball and fired a low shot that grazed Pagliuca's fingertips and went straight into the near corner of the goal!
1:0!!!
The sudden shout smelled of hoarseness, as if the heart would stop beating with emotion in the chest if it didn't do. Excited faces were twisted smiles, and facial muscles stiffened with surprise.
Good for a while.
The slow-motion replay given by the big screen on the field answered all the questions.
It turned out that in such a quick counterattack, it was divided into two flawless sections!
The original difficult situation of 3 to 5 disappeared with such a small arc of weight, and the five Italian defenders failed to even interfere with the opponent, and in the end, it was only the goalkeeper's instinctive reaction that made Ljungberg hesitate for a moment before starting to celebrate!
After repeated slow-motion playback. Everyone was vaguely aware that something different was starting to take root in this team.
It's unbelievably simple, and it's so sharp that it's unforgettable!
.....
The 1-0 lead gave everyone hope in the difficult situation, but the bubble of hope was too fragile and quickly dissipated by the starlight of the opponent.
In the 64th and 69th minutes of the game, Ronaldo and Recoba kicked a goal each. The score became 1:2!
The reason for conceding two goals in five minutes is simple.
Exhausted!
In the face of non-human monsters such as aliens, Arsenal's veterans had to pay double their physical strength to avoid being thrown too far, and after more than an hour of extreme testing, they could no longer keep up with their opponents' movements.
The situation facing Arsenal is also simple.
If you continue to attack, the defense lines of both sides are not on the same level in terms of strength and physical strength, and they will not be able to get a higher offensive level than the opponent, and they are very likely to be beaten into a sieve in the end!
If you recycle the anti-reversal, you can only hope for the next round!
In such a simple situation, Wenger's substitution did not hesitate.
Petit down. Wiltord on!
The Frenchman is often criticised for being too stubborn and Arsenal are often ridiculed for their soft style of play, but when faced with extremely difficult situations, this team will not choose to live on their knees from top to bottom.
Of course, a two-goal lead at the Meazza Stadium is too slim and Arsene Wenger's move at this point may simply be a desperate gamble after seeing the situation.
Come, die and die happily!
Wiltord was ordered to play in a critical situation, but unfortunately he knew his own family affairs. In the face of such a predicament, he really has more than enough energy.
The team's midfield is exhausted, and it is difficult for the ball to pass through the ground to the opposition half. Not to mention creating chances and scoring. His small size can't do the work of the midfield, and he can hardly contribute much in frontal defence against imposing opponents.
I can't attack, I can't defend, and I'm in a mediocre state. Is there a cure for this?
Since being betrayed by his compatriots, Wiltord no longer has a fluke mentality, and at this time he has a calm face, but his eyes are a little blank.
You Mo saw it clearly, so he smiled.
"Come on. Change positions first. ”
......
How much of a difference can just a different position make?
Back?
No one believed it, not even the die-hard Arsenal fans in attendance.
'No way, the opponent is too strong, our players have done their best, the goal is beautiful, but unfortunately it's all over.'
"yes, an impressive game, the fly in the ointment is that the last third is unfinished."
"Let's play well in the group stage next season and try to get the top spot......"
"What's the use! A team that wants to win the championship can't be afraid of any opponent, even if it's the same style! ”
Wang Dan and Yang Chen sat in the stands and chatted for most of the time, and now they also feel a little excited.
Two days after the Spring Festival, the Beijing guy went back to Germany, and he was going to practice by himself, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be better to come over and listen to some opinions, so he appeared in the stands in this game.
His performances at Eintracht Frankfurt have nothing to say, starting 13 of 17 games, scoring five goals and providing two assists, a record that is undoubtedly excellent for a relegation underdog.
Wang Dan had listened to You Datou's teachings before, and he remembered it at the moment, but he finally put his mind at ease after observing his face for a while.
People are really different!
Yang Chen has the strength in China and has no chance, but now it is easy to work hard to create a sky of his own, and he naturally cherishes it very much.
"Changed positions, it seems that Arsenal still has a sing!"
Although Yang Chen's voice was a little excited, his expression was calm and a little unable to keep up with the rhythm.
After more than half a year of Bundesliga experience, his vision can no longer be the same as before, the situation of the two teams in front of him is really simple, he does not think that just a simple exchange of positions can fundamentally change the direction of the game.
"yes, it's not going to be a good thing to lose them like this."
Wang Dan's expression was also lazy, and he didn't pay much attention to the game.
In fact, for player agents, the ability to read the game can more accurately measure the value of a player, and the importance should not be underestimated. However, such a major event almost decided Arsenal's season harvest, and it is difficult for her to remain optimistic at this time.
"Well, the midfielder's interception and confrontation capabilities have been enhanced, and Lao You has made a good move." Yang Chen watched more attentively than her.
"He's a restless master, and he always has to come out of any situation that seems unsolvable to others, and I'm used to it over time." Wang Dan incarnated as Wang Po, boasting.
"The midfielder can control the ball, and there is food in the front, and it is not easy to successfully score a goal once like the way he used to find the top of his head with a big foot, and it is inevitable that some ideals are lacking as a regular means." Yang Chen smiled and nodded, thinking deeply, "Yes, we can't catch up with him at this point combined." Maybe there is no unsolvable situation in his heart, only lazy people and incompetent people. ”
"Haha, so it's not unreasonable to say that so many people love to revolve around him." Wang Dan didn't forget to put gold on his face after praising others, "I think, everything can't be controlled by the answer that is taken for granted, the more natural things are, the easier it is to exist in the thinking trap." For example, in this game, he obviously played well in the center forward position, and the result was ......"
Yang Chen's face changed slightly as he listened.
The scene that happened on the field also surprised him a little.
Jumo let Recoba pass the ball in a one-on-one, and after a successful break, he quickly nudged it to Vieira next to him. The Frenchman took two steps forward and delivered a precise through ball to Bergkamp in the middle. The Dutchman made a slight adjustment and the ball was split on the right-hand touchline. Ljungberg received the ball and connected with the retreating Wiltord to complete the wall-to-wall cross, and Yumo outflanked him in the middle, but the final volley was not pressed and the anti-aircraft gun was released.
Compared with the simplicity and efficiency of the previous goal, although this coordination method seems complicated, in fact, the number of touches and the time of everyone involved are very short, and in just 12 seconds, the ball flies from the front of the penalty area to the opponent's goal!
What's even more exaggerated is that this attack was done with almost all the defenders resting on the spot!
If this continues, the game will ......
"Oops, he actually kicked it into the second-floor stands, this guy wasted the opportunity to criticize and criticize!" Wang Dan clenched his fists and swung it vigorously twice, and finally landed on his leg helplessly.
In her opinion, once the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is missed, most of the competition will be gone.
Yang Chen didn't think so.
"Ah, I forgot, Lao You is a free man in the Bundesliga, and it is too underestimated to see only the frontal interception!"
Wang Dan was immediately energized when he heard this.
"Well, that is, Wenger doesn't know the goods, if Rehhagel came to bring this Arsenal team, maybe the game would have been decided a long time ago!"
"Every coach has his own philosophy, I think." Yang Chen said slowly: "Wenger is good at adjusting technical players, and anyone has a high degree of freedom under him, such as the previous change of position on the field, if it was other managers, maybe they would have slapped the table a long time ago." ”
"Well, you have a point." Wang Dan was as good as a stream, and said with a smile: "There are less than fifteen minutes left in the game, and Inter Milan's offensive seems to be coming up again, which side can have the last laugh?" ”
Yang Chen turned a deaf ear.
"Ah, why do you still take the right side, this time it's clear that the left side of Overmars is also pressing, why do you fight all the way?" (To be continued.) )
