Chapter 256: The Beckham Moment of the Anglo-German War (4).
Bang!
Left wing-back Lahm broke through Theo Walcott and went all the way, pretending to break through the bottom line on the right side of the England penalty area, Manzioni behaved like a kindergarten child, and was easily shaken off the center of gravity!
Rahm cut cross-cutting down the middle and curled a high-quality ball into the far corner, where Joe Hart leapt into the air, but only caught a cool breeze on his fingertips and the ball slammed into the crossbar and post and flew off the line...... Dangerous!!
In the exclamation of the England fans standing up and hugging their heads, the elf mouse brother Ram rubbed his wet hair regretfully, turned around and ran to his place!
…… About ten minutes into the second half, the "German machine" operated in strict accordance with the procedure set by head coach Loew at halftime, and Manzioni and Lescott were repeatedly attacked by the German players and were under the most pressure!
The two have different performances!
Although the 24-year-old Lescote has not played for England before, after all, he has accumulated a wealth of experience in the Premier League like Everton, and his physical condition is very good, and he has gradually stabilized his position with the help of big brother Terry!
In comparison, the 19-year-old Manzioni handed in a much worse answer!
The right wing-back, who was loaned to Wolves by Chelsea, obviously did not adapt to such a high-intensity game quickly, and was soon beaten into a sieve by Lahm and Schweinsteiger combined, and the threatening attack of the German team for the past ten minutes was basically launched on the right flank!
This scene made the slightly relaxed hearts of the fans in the stands jump to their throats again, in the face of Germany's stubborn opponent, the 3:0 advantage can not be completely reassured, not to mention that the England team only has a one-goal lead?
Bang-Bang!!
Gradually, the strong men and beauties of England in the stands at Wembley Stadium stood up from their seats, clapping their hands anxiously and nervously, cheering for the players!
“…… In the first ten minutes of the second half, England were at an absolute disadvantage...... Crazy Lee's substitution completed the German team's offensive, Manzioni was too tender......" Commentator Lineker also began to get anxious: "If Crazy Lee's starting lineup in the first half made Loew accidentally fall into the trap, then in the second half, the German coach has obviously crawled out of the trap and used his superior tactical ability to give Crazy Lee a head start...... In the battle between the two head coaches, the balance of victory is slowly tilting in favor of the Germans......"
On the field!
The England players are also gradually feeling that something is wrong!
The Germans' aggressive and onslaught-focused attacks left the Three Lions struggling to cope, and the feeling of being led by the nose from the McLaren era began to return...... However, unlike in the past, when players could not rely on the manager and had to use their own understanding of the game to solve problems, this time almost all the players turned to the command for help...... And this time, the man standing in front of the command was not as dazed as McLaren used to be, and the players got the answer they wanted - attack!
The boss's gesture is simple - attack at all costs!
Manzioni could even hear the boss shouting from the sidelines: "Hey, Michelle, I'm going to play for you, don't cower around the box and use your speed and power to attack their defence, like you did at Wolves...... Hey, shit, if you don't rush up, I'll replace you down......"
Soon, Li Tongfan's tactical requirements were strictly implemented!
England put more energy into attacking...... Michel Manzioni, a 19-year-old who was beaten into a sieve by the German team in the first ten minutes, was like a rookie soldier who was pushed behind the ass by the Overseers with a ghost head knife, with a hideous face and panting and rushing forward...... The scene is slightly better!
Although the German team's attack was still ferocious, England also created many chances through their own efforts, and the game situation turned into a battle of patience and care, as long as either side made a mistake first, it would be an instant disaster!
In fact, at this moment, in addition to asking the team to attack with all their might, Li Tongfan has no good way to crack Loew's tactics!
Although the trend of the game has long been known through the deduction of fm2008, but the speed of change and on-the-spot command ability of tactician Loew is obviously far higher than that of Lao Li, if there is no help from fm2008, it is estimated that Li Tongfan will lose in the first half of the contest with Loew!
Since he can't compare to Loew in terms of strain, the only thing Li Tongfan can do now is to ensure that the England team will not fall into the rhythm of the German team! There is only one way, that is, to give up the defense of the England team, fight hard with the German team with a reckless attack, and it is the pure masters who survive to the end!
Therefore, the current scene is a test of courage for Lee Tongfan and Loew, who can't stand the pressure of the opponent's attack first and chooses to defend, then there is no doubt that he will become the loser!
When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!
However, Loew is clearly confident in the German team's attacking power, so he did not make any further adjustments, and Lee Tong-fan is even more confident than Loew, because the time to score is coming!
## #前十分钟对英格兰右路的压制让拉姆都点自信过头, when Schweinsteiger got the ball, the elf mouse brother did not hesitate to insert along the sideline, and at this time, the young player Manzioni, who was forced to the front by the madman Lee, had not had time to retreat to the backline...... Schweinsteiger clearly saw Lahm's movement and immediately played a diagonal pass straight through Ram after a feint to shake off Frank Lampard's defence, but they had already played seven or eight times in the first ten minutes, and it was easy for England defender David Beckham to spot...... Becky blocked the passing route before he saw Schweinsteiger pass the ball, and by the time Piggy passed the ball to find out that something was wrong, it was too late!
In the eyes of the audience, the ball was almost exclusively passed to Beckham!
“…… Mistake, Schweinsteiger's pass went straight to Beckham, England's chance! Sester, the on-site commentator, yelled!
On the field!
After Xiaobei successfully broke the ball, he didn't even take a single step, and directly passed the big-footed high-altitude ball diagonally to the left side of the German team's backfield...... There, Manzioni, the young player who had not had time to retreat just now, was raising his hand to ask for the ball!
Frontcourt!
Three seconds later, Manzioni was very comfortable unloading Beckham's precise pass, and in the face of the German defender's Frings, the 19-year-old did not choose to break through with a hot head, but knocked the ball to the feet of Ashley Young in the middle, and he quickly plunged forward!
It's a clear one-by-two!
However, Frings didn't pay any more attention to Manzioni, because after receiving the pass, Ashley did not choose to play a one-two with Manzioni at the first time, but unexpectedly took the ball to the middle and told the dribble to advance!
That's the gap left by Frings pressing out to defend Manzioni!
Ashley was so fast that Frings couldn't catch up, another German midfielder, Hitzelsberg, rushed to help, and even centre-back Medsak began to move forward, ready to support his team-mates...... Ashley Young's side quickly surrounded three or four German players!
“…… Ashley Young was too sticky with the ball, too many dribbles, and England's hard-won counter-attack opportunity was wasted by the Aston Villa winger......" Lineker's words were not finished, and suddenly his tone changed, and he exclaimed: "Huh? What's going on? Ashley Young passed the ball??? God, wonderful diagonal ball!! The soccer ball scurried out between Hitzelsberg's legs......"
On the field!
After attracting a number of German defenders, Ashley Young suddenly stabbed the ball with a hidden toe and the ball accelerated through the "wicket" of Hitzelsberg and headed straight for the left side of the German team...... Where, the long-neglected teenager Manzioni has run out of the gap!
Because Ashley Young's sudden forward insertion disrupted the rhythm of the German team, it was already a mess in the penalty area, and Lahm, who stepped forward to assist, had not yet retreated, and Metzelder had to run out of the box from the position of central defender to defend Manzioni!
It's done!
As soon as Metzelder came out, Manzioni no longer stuck to the ball, and passed diagonally to the penalty area at a 45-degree angle, and the England team's two-meter-one-meter high school striker Pete Crouch stood prominently in the German team's penalty area like a big flag, and there was no German team's central defender around him to defend closely!
Dangerous!
It was too late for Hildebrand to attack, so he had to lower his center of gravity and wait for the opponent to shoot at the first time!
However, Crouch did not shoot directly, but used a very standard lion flick to flick the ball behind him, and Frank Lampard, who was on the heels of the plug-in, did not wait for the ball to hit the ground...... So fast!
In mid-air, a white lightning bolt went straight to the middle of the goal...... German goalkeeper Hildebrand was completely unable to capture the trajectory of the football, so he had to subconsciously jump on the spot and punch, and then the back of his hand suddenly popped up as if it had been hit by a cannonball, and hit the crossbar of the goal...... However, for Hildebrand, it didn't matter if he threw ten more times, because his knee-jerk reaction actually sealed Lampard's powerful blast out of the door!
“…… Manzioni's clever pass, Crouch ...... Frank Lampard ...... Shot!!! …… God, unbelievable, Hildebrand saved the ball and it was a Banksy save!! Is England's offensive over? Lineker in the commentary box became as passionate as Sester and shouted first: "...... The soccer ball flew out of the penalty area to see who grabbed the soccer first...... Players in white uniforms? …… Who is it? Opted for a direct shot? ”
On the field!
Bang!
The sound of a vigorous force hitting the football resounded throughout the stadium, drowning out everyone's exclamations and screams in an instant...... More than 40 meters away from the goal of the German team, the back of the No. 7 team uniform of the England team shot vigorously at the flying ball, and the white football stayed on his instep for 0.01 seconds, and then disappeared from everyone's sight like a missile that was suddenly ignited...... It wasn't until the broadcast camera cut to the inside of the German goal that it was discovered that the football had been tightly attached to the net and spinning uncontrollably...... Ball...... Entered?
After a second or two of silence at Wembley Stadium, Sester was the first to react: "...... goooooooooooooal…… David Beckham, the new captain of the Three Lions, was a veritable long-range shot!! It took less than a minute from the moment he broke the ball at the back to the time he cut in to shoot in front of goal, and it was all a show from the captain...... This is the moment that belongs to the captain, the great seven, is back......"
