The title of San Cassie has always belonged to the Spanish national Igor Casillas. The legendary goalkeeper who has played for Real Madrid for many years has helped Spain win one World Cup and two European Championships, and won the IFFHS World Goalkeeper of the Year five times in a row from 2008 to 2012, which has not been broken so far.

Igor is Casillas' first name, but fans like to call him by his last name.

Listening to the Russian fans constantly chanting "St. Igor", at this moment, Akinfeev, who has the same name, seems to be possessed by St. Cassie, in the first half an hour, in the case of conceding a goal first, in the face of England's indiscriminate bombardment, the captain of CSKA Moscow, the vice captain of the Russian national team, bravely saved England's many goals in this game, reminding the world that Russia is also a country rich in excellent goalkeepers.

helped the former Soviet Union win the first European Cup, became the only goalkeeper in history to win the European Golden Ball Award, and was selected by FIFA as the greatest goalkeeper of the 20th century, "Octopus" Lev Yashin. His name has become the best goalkeeper award in the World Cup - Yashin Award (Golden Glove Award).

If Yashin is the only goalkeeper in the 20th century, then under the goalkeeper, there are the world's "four goalkeepers" in the 20th century, they are Brazil's Kilmar, England's Gordon Banks, Italy's Dino Zoff, and the successor of Yashin, known as the goalkeeper, the talented goalkeeper in world football in the 80s of the last century, and the only Russian Linat Dasayev who has entered the list of the top 100 superstars in FIFA history so far.

Akinfeev, who is about the same height as St. Cassie, played for the first team earlier than the Spanish goalkeeper, playing for Russian Premier League powerhouse CSKA Moscow at the age of 17, and shocked Europe by helping them win the UEFA Cup in 2005. The Russians even regard him as the second Dasayev, and some even compare him to the legendary door god Yashin.

With his outstanding performances in the European Super League and European arena, Akinfeev has gradually established himself as the number one goalkeeper of the Russian national team. But for some reason, Akinfeev has not moved to the mainstream league, helping the team reach the semi-finals in Euro 2008, as the main goalkeeper, he contributed a lot, at that time to buy his big team many teams, but later stayed in CSKA.

The genius boy of the year has now reached the age of standing, and at the age of 30, he has also reached the golden age of goalkeepers. Akinfeev, who has made 87 appearances for the Russian national team, is aiming to challenge Sergi Ignashevic, who has made 117 appearances for Russia at the age of 36. For Akinfeev who can play for at least 7 or 8 years, as long as his form does not decline, a record break is just around the corner.

"Great, Igor is out of shape, hold on a little longer, and when it comes to the tipping point, it's our chance!" Leondeni Slutsky clasped his hands and muttered: "Everyone have to hold on, as long as we don't concede the ball, we have a chance!" Even if you get one point, it's a victory! ”

It is impossible to say that Slutsky has no idea about the World Cup in Russia in two years' time. To continue to lead the host country to the World Cup is a very honorable honor for any coach.

Therefore, if you can lead the team to go further in this European Cup, you will undoubtedly increase your confidence in continuing to lead the team. And the first game against England, although I know that England with a dry attack is strong, and it can definitely rank in the top three of the top 24, but England is not without weaknesses, Slutsky's idea is to keep not conceding a goal first, even if he loses a goal, he must keep this goal in the first half, and then, when a certain point in time comes, implement a plan that has been formulated for England's weaknesses.

Seeing the opposing goalkeeper so brave, the young England players began to be impatient. Harry Kane, Jamie Valti, Deli Ali and others, who were eager to score goals, gradually began to take the ball alone, and several shots became more and more deflected, and even the competition was to see whose plane played well.

Even England captain Wayne Rooney couldn't resist running to the edge of the box to shoot a few long shots, but with the interference of the Russian defenders, he either missed or rushed the ball into the air.

And Qiansheng continued to be surrounded by three people, and when he couldn't get the ball, he became a spectator on the field.

"Boss, something is wrong." Gary Neville frowned and said to Roy Hodgson: "On the surface, it looks like we have the upper hand, and the Russian team has been in a passive state. Qian was caught by the opponent after scoring a goal, and the opponent actually sent three people to trap him, obviously worried about Qian's attack power. ”

Hodgson nodded, rubbed his chin and looked at Slutsky, who was standing quietly on the sidelines, and said: "On the surface, the three-person bag is dry, so that the dry can not get the ball, which greatly reduces the attack power of the dry. Although Qian attracted most of the opponent's defensive strength, allowing Harry and Jamie to get a lot of shots, but this Igor is in too good shape, he has been scoreless for so long, and for the children, it will be ......" Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he remembered something, and he turned his head and said urgently: "How much time is it now?" Gary. ”

Neville looked up at the big screen and said, "It's almost 40 minutes." ”

Not good, the tipping point is coming, and the offensive can no longer be continued. Hodgson was about to walk to the side of the court, and when he saw Qiansheng raise his hand and shout, Hodgson calmed down a little, and then looked at Slutsky again.

What killer trick does he have to get the score back?

What kept Hodgson from going to the sidelines to make temporary adjustments was the reassuring move of Qiansheng, because Qiansheng made tactical adjustments on the court instead of him

Qiansheng waved his hand and shouted at his teammates: "Retreat!" Control! "As a cadre with absolute command power on the field, he is not a captain but is better than a captain, plus Hodgson's explanation, so although he is still unsatisfied with the attack and is unwilling to score, Kane and others still honestly retreat.

"Not good, they're going to change their tactics. Fortunately, the tipping point has arrived! Slutsky's pupils shrank sharply, and if England were allowed to drop back into the half, his tactics would be ineffective.

"Igor, let's go!" Slutsky shouted.

Akinfeev, who had just managed to hold Kane's shot in his arms again, rushed to the line of the penalty area and yelled: "Dmitry! "The big hand threw the ball at the feet of Dmitry Tobinski near the center circle, and Tobinski didn't carry the ball, but quickly passed the ball in front of Aleksandr Samedov, where there was an open open space, and Samedov ran across the halfway line to receive the ball and dribble quickly along the touchline.

At this time, Kane, Valti and Ali have not left the big penalty area, England's left-back Danny Rose and right-back Kyle Walker are still on both sides of the big penalty area, Rooney and Eric Dill are still in the arc of the penalty area, and Qiansheng is running towards the center circle.

"It's not good, there's no one on the side!" Neville stood up and exclaimed.

Hodgson also stood up, turned his head to look at the excited Slutsky with an ugly face, and said in his heart: "Leondney, you are just waiting for this moment." ”

Hodgson already knew what he was worried about, and couldn't help but admire Slutsky's bold adjustment after conceding the goal, taking turns to use three players to cover the dry, relying on the remaining defensive players to deal with the attacks of Kane, Vardy and other midfielders, including the two fullbacks who pressed to the front as wingers, and used the young England players' dedication to the first major tournament, so that they continued to consume physical attack.

But this is a double-edged sword, and Slutsky is gambling in doing so, sealing the super scoring point of Qiansheng, sacrificing the number of defenders, and then gambling on luck.

His luck is really good, although the Premier League silver boot Kane and the bronze boot Walty do not have the ability to shoot pervertedly, but the two still hit a lot of dangerous shots, if it weren't for the fact that Akinfeev was possessed by the god of the door in this game, and played at a super standard, he didn't have to wait for the second half, and the first half would have surrendered.

The 40th minute is usually a critical point in the player's fitness, and at this time the player's fitness will decline, and it is also easy to make mistakes, so often from this time, many goals are scored in the last five minutes of the first half.

Slutsky's adjusted tactics were actually very lucky, because even if he froze Qiansheng, the other two strikers were also very strong, but fortunately, Akinfeev suddenly became a saint in this game and did not let the goal be beaten into a sieve. When the time came in the 40th minute, they launched a counterattack while England was pressing heavily on the rear air defense.

Compared to their teammates who were defending at the back, Russia's two wing-backs and forwards were only tasked with wrapping up when they entered their area, so they didn't consume much stamina.

So what the viewers saw was that Samedov was fast with the ball on the wing, and in the England half, it was the two centre-backs Gary Cahill and Chris Smalling who kept falling back, and Smalling had to pay attention to Samedov, but Cahill had to distract himself from the Russian centre-forward Artem Dzyuba in front of him and Oleg Shatov running along the right flank.

It was a three-on-two counter-attack, with the Russians having the upper hand on the counter-attack, and when Samedov rushed to the corner of the penalty area, he crossed with his right foot to Dzyuba who had stepped forward into the arc of the box.

Cahill looked at Dzyuba with wide eyes, and the afterglow swept on Shatov on the right, at this time Dyuba either went head-to-head with him or passed to the unguarded Shatov, but Cahill had already hinted to Smalling to let him take a step forward, as long as Dyuba didn't pass to Shatov himself, he would make an offside position and defuse the opponent's counterattack.
