Chapter 47 Door Line Technology

"Welcome to Sunderland vs Southampton in the second half......

Due to the focus on possession, Halilovic and Zhang Xiuwei on both sides of the midfield always appear more in the middle of the game to get the ball, while Carlos appears more on the side, from time to time using the speed advantage to impact the defense of the opponent's fullbacks. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Xiuwei has a clear idea of the ball, he can always quickly transfer the ball to the weak side after receiving the ball, and the passing speed is very fast, and the route is also very accurate, which surprised the fans and opponents on the spot, he can't imagine how a 20-year-old from China can have such excellent basic skills and a cool head.

"After 60 minutes of the game, Zhang Xiuwei's number of passes is second only to Rodwell in the team, and the pass success rate is more than 90%, which can be called an excellent performance for a young player who is making his first appearance in the Premier League."

"I think Dizi is deliberately cultivating Zhang Xiuwei, what do you think?" Shen Chao, who was in the VIP viewing area, said.

"Maybe, after all, Zhang Xiuwei is a player of our country, even if it is for the future development of the national football team, it is not impossible to train him more." Chen Mingshuo replied.

"But Dizi is really bold, he actually let him play in the Premier League, and he is still a starter, if it were me, I wouldn't dare to take such a risk."

"But Zhang Xiuwei's performance in this game is really good, and he is fully worthy of the opportunity to start, which at least proves that Dizi has not pulled out the seedlings."

'Southampton's counter-attacking chance, Raymond was quick, dribbling into the 30-metre area of Sunderland, and he was watching his team-mates' movements! Oops, it's a pity that this through ball was judged in advance by Jedinak, and if this ball can find Shaun Lang ambushed in the penalty area, it will pose a great threat to Sunderland's goal! ”

In the 70th minute of the game, Sunderland took the lead in making substitution adjustments, and England teenager Murphy came on to replace Halilovich, who was not in good form in this game.

"Through this substitution adjustment, the formation of the Sunderland team seems to have undergone some changes, from the original 4411 formation to the 4231 formation, Zhang Xiuwei's position moved to the middle, Carlos pulled the side, and Murphy formed a two-wing flying situation, it seems that Nan Xiao wants to launch a wave of attacks in the final stage of the game."

Because she has seen Nan Xiao's own style of playing, she also has a deeper understanding of Nan Xiao's tactical concepts, which makes Director Zhang Lu and Director Li Yuankui praise her, of course, they don't know that You Lu and Nan Xiao still have a very close relationship.

As the game gradually entered the final stage, the Sunderland team also began to gradually strengthen the attack as You Lu said, especially Murphy's frequent breakthroughs on the left wing, relying on the more abundant physical strength and his own fast speed to bring a lot of trouble to the Saints' right-back Cedric many times.

"More inverted triangle returns!" Rodwell, as the old man on the team, reminded Murphy.

He was able to see more clearly in the midfield position that the team had opportunities in attack, so he was also very timely to remind him.

With ten minutes left in the game, the ball came to the feet of Rodwell, and in the face of the opponent's full recovery formation, he did not choose to divide the two wings again, but flicked the instep of his own foot, dodged the angle of the shot, and suddenly slashed the kick from outside the penalty area.

Rodwell had a long-range shot, but he didn't try to shoot too far in this game, so the opposing players were somewhat lax in his defense, and he didn't defend closely at the first time he got the ball, so he gave Rodwell a chance to shoot from a distance.

There are two relatively easy ways to break down a dense defence, one is a cross from the wing, the other is a long-range shot from outside the box, and perhaps a third method can be added, which is a set-piece attack.

"Rodwell's sudden long-range shot!" You Lu's voice was distinctly excited, "Hit the beam!" ”

The crowd stood up at Rodwell's long-range shot, their eyes wide as they watched the ball's trajectory until it hit the underside of the crossbar and clutched their heads in disbelief.

"Did the ball go in? The ball bounced off the crossbar and smashed on the goal line, and was finally confiscated by Foster, from this point of view we can't see whether the ball crossed the goal line as a whole, but judging from the referee's reaction, it should be that there was no goal, I don't know if a slow motion replay can make us see more clearly......"

Goal-line suspense has always been a common situation in football, and the most impressive thing for fans is undoubtedly six years ago at the World Cup in South Africa, when Frank Lampard's shot hit the crossbar and bounced into the goal, but due to the rotation of the ball itself, it bounced out of the goal line and was finally held in Neuer's arms. The Three Lions' England team also regretfully missed the equalizer opportunity, I don't know if it was because this misjudgment broke the will of the English players, and then the German team scored three more goals and was eliminated from the World Cup with a score of 0-4.

"Judging from the slow-motion replay, the ball really didn't completely cross the goal line, maybe it was still five percent off, but it was true that a small part of the ball was still pressed on the goal line, which is why the referee's watch did not have a prompt sound, and the goal-line technology also allowed Southampton to escape the tragedy of conceding a goal."

"But Southampton will also need to be vigilant because of this, Sunderland's attack has not stopped, and how to maintain their innocence in the final minutes to take a full exit is still a big test for them."

"There is still a clock in the game into injury time, Sunderland team made substitutions again, No. 7 Larsson came off the bench, replaced by the Chinese teenager Zhang Xiuwei, who performed remarkably in this game, and all the spectators at the Stadium of Light also gave a standing ovation when Zhang Xiuwei went off the field, which is an encouragement to the youngsters, perhaps more because of the face of Nan Xiao, as the head coach's hometown, the fans of course also hope that he can bring progress and better results to the club like Nan Xiao."

Larsson's arrival gave Sunderland a different attacking pattern of crossing, while Van Aanholt on the left also started to step forward to make more crosses, while Jedinak also moved into the Southampton box to fight for the first spot with Defoe.

Southampton's ticket for the final five minutes was a thrill, and despite their goalkeeper being almost two metres tall, Larsson's pass landed near the penalty spot and he didn't do anything to get the ball down.

"Southampton have taken a point away from the Stadium of Light, but they are currently in the relegation quagmire with only three league points in hand; At the same time, Sunderland will also travel to Merseyside to face the match against Liverpool, and it is said that Sunderland's manager Nan Xiao is still a Reds fan, and he doesn't know what it will be like to play against his favorite team in the next game; Well, the live broadcast review of this game You Lu will introduce it to you, I hope the audience and friends can continue to pay attention to the live broadcast of other Premier League games brought to you next, goodbye! ”
