Chapter 660: Battle of England (3)
Ranieri frowned, and he seemed to have a problem with his tactics, which was that it had to be evenly matched, such as against Argentina, so that England would have a lot of opportunities to counter-attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, the Chinese team took the initiative to show weakness and did not go head-to-head with England, so that the Chinese team did not leave much space for England to impact at halftime.
Ranieri still has some knowledge of the characteristics of his players, especially Raheem Sterling, who is very fast, but not a small technique.
Lallana distributed the ball to Raheem Sterling, who made a couple of pedals in the face of Geng Chong, but the movements were very clumsy.
Seeing that Geng Chong didn't take feints, Sterling still used the old way, that is, he used speed to break through.
Geng Chong saw the opportunity and stretched out his foot to block, Sterling didn't pass, the ball was kicked out, bouncing, and finally arrived at Zhou Dun's feet.
Zhou Dun didn't observe, and hung forward directly, and Ranieri on the sidelines chuckled in his heart, isn't this Leicester City's tactic?
Yes.
In the past few days, Li Guo has watched videos in vain, Leicester City's counterattack is basically not through the midfield, and sometimes the goalkeeper kicks forward.
The ball flew across the halfcourt, and Chen Green was fighting Cahill for speed, at which point Joe Hart hesitated to attack or not.
In the end, Joe Hart still attacked, halfway through the attack, Chen Green had already caught up with the ball, Joe Hart opened his body, like a big crab, and interfered with Chen Green's shot as much as possible.
Chen Green poked his toes and picked the ball up, and the ball flew high above Joe Hart and then towards the goal.
Li Guo had already celebrated in advance, but Ranieri did not give up, he saw that Stones was still struggling to chase back, and Chen Green's strength in picking the ball seemed to be a little smaller, and Stones still had the possibility of catching up.
In the end, Stones threw himself out and hooked the ball in front of the goal line, and the must-have goal of the Chinese team was blocked.
After saving the ball, Stones slid into the back of the net and Cahill and Walker stepped forward to give Stones a high-five.
"Hey guys, I seem to be caught in a net, help me."
Cahill and Walker looked at it and were also stunned, how could it be entangled like this, they tried it with their hands, and they couldn't solve it at all.
This can only be found by the referee, and the players of both teams ran over to take a look, and they were all happy, especially the Chinese players, at this time, Stones' right leg was like a dumpling.
In the end, the referee came up with a solution, which was to cut the net first and then tie it back together.
The fans in the stands were also happy, which was also an unheard of spectacle, and it took a full 10 minutes to resume the game, but this period will not be counted in injury time because the referee has already suspended the time.
*****
The ball didn't score, the field quickly recovered, under the tense game, the two sides quickly forgot about the goal, but Ranieri didn't, he still had palpitations, he always felt that Li Guo was just arrogant, in Asia where the level of football is very low to dominate the king, but just now the ball let Ranieri see how strong Li Guo's learning ability is.
Ranieri naturally did not know that this was the Chinese's way of returning the other, and he called Cahill over and told him a few words.
"Pay attention to the counterattack of the Chinese team, just like just now."
Cahill nodded.
In the end, Ranieri was still not reassured, "It's like Leicester City playing in the league, you should understand when I say that." ”
Cahill smiled, "Boss, actually, I already understood. ”
Ranieri was sweating profusely, he cared too much about the game.
******
Seaman, James, Green.
What do these names have in common?
During the preparation meeting a few days ago, Li Guo deliberately let the players watch the highlights of the England goalkeeper's mistakes.
It seems that every tournament is a nightmare of England's goalkeeper mistakes, and it has become a curse.
Li Guo thought that Joe Hart might do the same, so the Chinese players were asked to shoot more, no matter how outrageous, because the England goalkeeper might surprise the Chinese team.
Zhou Dun took Li Guo's words to heart, so in the area 35 meters away from the goal, Zhou Dun opened his bow and arrows, swinging his legs to shoot.
The ball is light and fluttering, as if it is floating in the air, and those who have kicked the ball know that it is because the force is too great, and the ball will rub violently with the air, forming an irregular trajectory.
This kind of ball is what Joe Hart is most afraid of, he is afraid that the ball will suddenly change the line, so a ball that is not a big threat, Joe Hart did not dare to hold it, but held the ball out of the bottom line.
"The Chinese team got a corner kick opportunity, this is the first corner kick of the Chinese team in this game," Liu Jianhong was a little excited in his tone, because judging from the past record, the Chinese team still has a very good way to take corner kicks.
England defended all the way, and they also knew that the Chinese team was still good in corner kicks, but fortunately Liao Lisheng of the Chinese team was not there.
From Lin Zhijian's point of view, this ball is still bullying the England goalkeeper, so Lin Zhijian kicked the ball around and floated, Joe Hart took a few steps and found that the ball was more floating than he expected, and he did not have the control of Neuer.
So he could only jump up and hit the ball out, but Chen Green touched him lightly, a very hidden action, just like that, Joe Hart didn't touch the ball, and Joe Hart, who fell from mid-air, was already shouting.
"Foul, foul!"
Qu Bo at the back point hit the ball into the empty goal, and Li Guo really jumped up this time and took the lead!
But Li Guo was just excited, the referee blew the whistle, and the bottom line referee clearly saw everything that happened.
Li Guo didn't know, "What's wrong?" ”
Looking at the referee's gestures and the offense's fouls, Li Guokong was a little unhappy, but the Chinese team still gained a lot these two times, that is, the weakness of the England goalkeeper was clearly exposed in front of the Chinese team.
Seeing Joe Hart's performance, Ranieri's face was solemn, he now finally understands that Guardiola is not going to abandon Joe Hart as soon as he arrives at Manchester City, it seems that this guy is really not reassuring, especially the second goal, he can not attack at all, but Joe Hart chose the stupidest way.
Li Guo's personality is that as long as he catches the weakness of the other party, he must make full use of it, otherwise he will be sorry for the opponent.
Next, the Chinese team's passes are all hoisted high, which is to practice Joe Hart's basic skills, as long as Joe Hart makes a mistake, then it is likely to give up the empty goal behind him to the Chinese team's striker.
Joe Hart is also on fire, he has managed to get rid of the tradition of England's goalkeeper being a weak chicken, but this game is a bit like being beaten back to its original shape.
In this regard, Ranieri's response turned out to be the same as Li Guo's, that is, he hit hard, Ranieri immediately asked the substitute goalkeeper to come out to warm up, the meaning is very clear, if you can't do it, then I will change the goalkeeper.
