We often watch football news, football reports, and even game commentary, and we will see that a certain star is good at controlling the pace of the game, and a certain coach is good at controlling the pace of the game.

Many people will ask, what is the rhythm of the game? How do you control the pace of the game? Who controls the pace of the game?

Football is, to a certain extent, a rhythmic sport, and mastering the rhythm of the game is a complex and artistic issue. Taking advantage of the change of pace to cause the opponent to not adapt is an important sign of a mature team.

The core of football tactics lies in the change of game rhythm and style of play. Some teams are accustomed to using the fast-paced style of play of long passes and quick attacks, some teams are used to using the slow-paced style of playing with layers of penetrating short passes, and some teams combine the two and constantly change the rhythm according to the form of the game.

To control the pace of the game, you need to keep the ball firmly at your feet, constantly move the opponent's direction through passing and control, and find gaps and opportunities to attack. As soon as the opportunity arises, you have to change the tempo, launch an attack, and catch the opponent off guard.

So, who controls the pace of the game? You know, the pace of the game requires a calm brain, a wide field of vision, excellent foot skills and super tactical ability. He can change the team's rhythm by passing the ball, adjust the team's offensive and defensive rhythm according to the situation, and can adjust and execute tactics according to the requirements and instructions of the head coach. Such a player, now there is a saying, is a metronome.

To put it simply, the metronome is the controller of the rhythm of the game. When the pace of the game is fast and out of tactical requirements, the metronome needs to slow down the tempo through its own passing and control. When you spot your opponent's weaknesses and offensive opportunities. The metronome raises its tempo with its own passes and delivers the fatal blow.

A lot of people say. Isn't this a midfield commander? Others say, what's the difference between a metronome and a midfield playmaker?

The core of the organization is more offensive. He mainly initiates and organizes the team's attack, passes dangerous balls to create scoring opportunities, and sometimes has a strong forward awareness and scoring ability.

Of course, sometimes the metronome and the playmaking core are two in one, but there are quite few such players. Among the retired players in recent times, French superstar Zinedine Zidane is a typical representative.

Hernandez Xavi, Xavi Alonso, Andrea Pirlo, Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, these old and young, are rare metronomes and playmaker core midfielders in today's football, and Andres Iniesta is only half of them. Thereinto. Pirlo is widely regarded as the originator of the organization-based midfielder in the world today, a generation of grandmasters. He is a well-rounded player, with world-class organization, scoring, and defense, making him an excellent model for the modern metronome.

This type of player, not counting any team, is a well-deserved tactical core, so many giants have their own metronomes, but for many national teams, the most lacking. That's it.

Because excellent metronome players are too scarce, and from the national team level, Germany and Spain are the most uncommon metronome players. Italy is half (known as Marco Verratti, Pirlo's successor), and even the small country Croatia has its own metronome masters.

When England were in a rhythm for more than half an hour, the 40 minutes after the first half were often the turning point in the tempo of the game. Due to the tough defense in the face of Turkey. Qiansheng and Jack Wilshere combed through the midfield, patiently looking for opportunities. Qiansheng looked up at the game time on the big screen. Looking ahead again, my eyes suddenly lit up. The corners of his mouth curled, and his opportunity came.

"Jack! Hasten! Qiansheng called out to Wilshire and ran forward.

Wilshere's eyes lit up, his tongue added to his lips, and he said secretly: "Hehe, I can finally attack freely!" He shouted to Deli Ali and Daniel Drinkwater behind him, "Run!" "Run to the front with the ball.

Alli and Drinkwater raced to the flanks, with Harry Kane and Jamie Waldy smashing their swords straight into the ribs of the Turkish penalty area, and the sudden change caused panic among the Turkish players, who were accustomed to the slow pace of England.

"Not good! Careless! Fatih Trim, who was in the coach's seat, stood up suddenly, his face showing an anxious expression.

The 40-point half-time is a critical point for the energy and stamina of both players, and this is the moment when it is most important to concentrate on the sudden change of pace of the opponent. But this matter is only known to experienced veterans, but it is clear that the change in England's rhythm is driven by this No. 9.

"Damn, who the hell is this Qian, obviously a striker, or the first time to participate in the national team competition, how did he know this critical point?" Trim secretly slandered himself. How did he know that as a cadre who likes to play football with his brain and prides himself on being extremely smart, he has been observing the opponent in the game, and found that the running speed and distance of the Turkish players have been greatly reduced in the last few minutes, and he seems to be a little lax mentally, so Qiansheng's instinct and intuition tell him that attacking at this time is a good opportunity.

What a terrible talent this is, and before you know it, Qiansheng's observation and comprehension of the rhythm of the game touches the edge of the metronome player. Although it is still far from it, he needs to continue to play to accumulate, but for him now, he only needs to seize one chance at the moment and make the score 2-0 in the first half, and the game is basically over.

Wilshere's dribbling break upset Turkey's defense, especially the two forward midfielders behind him, and Turkey, with only two midfielders, could not spare manpower to intercept England's No.10's sharp breakthrough, and Memet Topal had to instruct Hakan Balta and Zelda Aziz to watch the dry students who were inserted into the penalty area and run to the front of the penalty area to stop Wilshere.

Wilshire didn't wait for Topal to get closer, and quickly crossed the left foot to Ali, shouting, "Quick!" Ali kicked the ball to Valty on the right, and then shook off Ruri Shaheen who was staring at him and continued to cut forward, Walty blocked Canel Elgin with his arm and knocked back his left foot to Ali who was inserted into the right side of the penalty area, but Shaheen was too slow to chase back, and Ali was unguarded when he received the ball.

Topal turned around and ran into the big penalty area and shouted, "Zelda, you go guard him!" ”

Aziz hurriedly rushed towards Ali, Topal wanted to fill Aziz's position, but he didn't expect to run to Qiansheng, Ali quickly passed back to Wilshire who was following Topal, Topal was about to turn around, but Wilshere quickly passed the ball to Gansheng who was blocking Balta with his back and open arms, Balta pushed several times with both hands and couldn't make Qiansheng take a step, shocking Qiansheng's strength.

After receiving the ball, Qiansheng immediately pushed the outside of his right foot to Kane, who was entangled by Gohan Gunnur. Seeing the ball pass in front of him, Kane took a strong breath, used all his strength to get rid of Gunnuor, and shot vigorously at the ball with his right foot, hitting the bottom of the crossbar and bouncing into the net, the huge force hit the crossbar trembling slightly.

Six consecutive non-stop passes, and finally Kane scored by Qiansheng, England led Turkey 2-0. (To be continued.) )
