Chapter 59: Counterattack! Croatia!

In this game, Motta of the Italian team, played really first-class. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

His defence made it difficult for our artistic midfielders, and he was able to play the first point and retreat to help Barzagli defend them. Due to Motta's presence, Mandzukic's aerial superiority in the front court has been greatly weakened. Our only advantage in midfield is possession, and when Luka Modric has the ball, the Italian midfielders have a hard time breaking off their ball, but the question is how the ball works when it gets up front, how it moves to the head or feet of the striker, how it threatens Gianluigi Buffon's goal......

If we can afford to play a beautiful upper three-way attack, coupled with the lower three-way attack that we are already good at, our attack will be three-dimensional, and our attack will be more threatening! However, due to Motta's presence, we are now completely inferior in the control of the high-altitude ball! What to do?

Why didn't Bilic let me play...... Anyway, I'm 1.96 meters tall...... Even if I am asked to play as a midfielder, I can compete with Motta for the header, after all, my height is nine centimeters taller than Motta! If I play as a striker, I will be able to play the role of a bridgehead, I will play for Mandzukic, we will use the tactics we have just learned to make a difference for Croatia!

But...... Why aren't you letting me play......

Motta's header gave Italy another defensive victory, and this time, it was Andrea Pirlo who received the ball. Modric quickly entangled, Pirlo's moves were very general, and Modric's pressing was from the perspective of a challenger. Originally, Pirlo's possession and midfield management strength were far above Modric's, however, due to age, Pirlo's agility has been greatly reduced, and now, there is a balance of power between Modric and Pirlo......

Pirlo kept the ball at his feet and did not dare to change direction easily, while Modric followed carefully, equally afraid to take the ball easily...... He knew that if he had a kick, Pirlo would be able to strike backwards, easily sway past him and break through. And Pirlo also knows very well in his heart that if he changes direction easily, in case his body is not well controlled, he will only be so lightning and flint, and the speed will be a little slower, and the ball will be gone - Modric's "stealing the ball" trick is famous all over the world!

The balance between Modric and Pirlo made both sides have to send more people to support! The Italian team came to support the striker Cassano, and the person we came to support was the captain Srna! Pirlo spotted an opportunity and crossed the ball to Cassano's feet, but Srna was also in place at the same time, so the pair of rivals also launched a close confrontation -

Cassano wants to change the line! He used the famous Brazilian player Denilson's famous trick - the skill of pedaling a bicycle to shake Srna! But how could our great captain possibly give him this opportunity? He took advantage of Cassano's "pedaling", and the moment his foot left the ball, he stretched out his toes and gently pulled back-

The ball is pulled out! Srna used just a little trick on his toes to "steal" the ball from Cassano's feet! This trick is Modric's mastery! Now, I have been learned by Srna, and I have practiced perfectly!

Others may not know, but I do. After all, Modric is my roommate.

Ever since we arrived in Poland, every day, after training, Srna has been the definitive to ask Modric for his "stealing the ball". Luka Modric instructed Srna in practice, which always lasted two hours at a time. Our training ended at half past five in the afternoon, but the two of them always didn't show up in the restaurant until half past seven.

A few years ago, Srner's style was pure straight up, straight down, very fierce, and surprisingly fast. He often used his formidable speed and strong muscles to go back and forth between the offensive and defensive ends, but the consequence of such a style of play was that red and yellow cards were flying all over the place, and the probability of injury was greatly increased. Over time, Srna felt the limitations of this style of play for his continued career and began to refine his technique and create more subtle Croatian tricks. After the technological advancement, the captain is even more terrifying than before, however, the Italians must not know the progress of our captain, even if they have an advanced intelligence network, they cannot clearly understand the great ambition of a person!

Srna quickly passes the ball to Luka Modric! Modric received the ball deftly and passed it directly to Perisic on the left! Pirlo wanted to break the ball, but the speed couldn't keep up, and he didn't break it by a fraction of a second!

Perisic takes the ball and strikes quickly! Motta leaned in to defend him, but Motta's strength was the high ball, and his foot skills were good, but in terms of speed, he could never beat Perisic!

"Perisic! Come on! Beat Mota with speed! ”

This is the shout of a child in a Croatian jersey next to the pitch - a child who is only 7-8 years old at most! His shout, in the huge stadium, seemed incomparably clear-

"Come on! Perisic! ”

"Come on! Perisic! ”

"Come on! Perisic! ”

The Croatian fans, inspired by the little boy, began to cheer us on in unison and loudly! They shouted and cheered Perisic! Perisic must have been greatly encouraged in his heart!

It's over! Perisic used absolute speed to pass Motta! This is the first victory for a Croatian player against Motta in this match!

Come on! Shock Italy's golden defense! Perisic! Come on!

Perisic may have felt my heart! He single-handedly rushed to the Italian penalty area!

Bonucci is up! He wants to intercept Perisic's attack head-on!

Barzagli, on the other hand, left his original position, and he ran over and stuck to Mandzukic who was running in the other direction!

Chiellini is ready to fill in in the middle of the box! He is also trying his best to guard against Jelavic's attack from another angle!

Italy's defense, sure enough, is leaky! How will Perisic deal with it?

"He turned!" I exclaimed!

Perisic turned! He quickly cuts outward, and turns inward into sunk!

Bonucci couldn't react! He wanted to turn around, it was already hard!

He barely kept up with Perisic, but Perisic was already ahead of him and crossed!

The ball is flying!

Can this goal be converted into a goal for us?

Will we be able to draw Italy!

Balls fly high in the sky!

I'm waiting for an answer!
