'There are 60 minutes left in the game and from now on, Tottenham are in full swing. It's a bit too early, and it's not safe for them. The opponent is Barcelona, the best attacking team in the world, and now it is shrinking, but it is a bit bad. ”

Lineker is still doing the analysis of the game, but he knows that such an analysis may not be pleasant. Tottenham Hotspur made a tentative attack after being sent off, and after finding that he could not support the front-court attack, he immediately and honestly withdrew from the backfield, which made all those who still have a glimmer of hope for Tottenham and hope that Tottenham can play some different games, are a little regretful.

It seems that Li Bin has no way to attack Barcelona in a 10-on-11 situation.

"In the past few years, the Premier League teams have faced Barcelona, basically the posture of defense at the back, most of them have defended the backfield, and won the most difficult victory by relying on the copper wall. It's just that, after the victory, the evaluation they get is generally not very high......"

When Barcelona was playing, they had been smothered by the opponent's backfield more than once, and after being smothered more times, the Spanish media began to emphasize that this was because other teams did not play well enough. Tottenham Hotspur just played a little better in the last game, and this game is back to the road of not being good enough, which is of course a very regrettable thing for the English football community that has been suppressed in terms of reputation all year round.

But in addition to regrets, they also noticed another thing: Li Bin did not completely give up the defense, he still called Bale to his side and told him how to play. And soon, Lineker was also analyzing.

"Fighting back with Bale's speed? This seems to be the most feasible and desirable approach. Bale is very fast, can carry out long-distance rapid rushing, and with Tottenham's tactics of stubborn defense at the back, he can also have a certain deterrent, at least so that the opponent will not dare to press it all. It's just that, will the effect really be great? It's no secret that Bale's breakthrough is sharp, how can Barcelona not be on guard? ”

Lineker's worries are not meaningless, in the last game, Bale's speed has already made a considerable impression on Barcelona, so when they saw Li Bin and Bale conspiring, the first reaction was that Li Bin wanted a quick counterattack breakthrough. And this made Barcelona's players immediately adjust their attack, Puyol and Abidal both stayed behind the center circle, not daring to plug in, lest Tottenham have something amazing.

In their opinion, this is enough - there are two people who stay at the back, they can already look down on each other, and when Barcelona are happy, there have been cases where the opponent is obviously in an offside position, but because they received the ball in their own half without fouling, they can play a counterattack smoothly. In their opinion, no matter how fast Bale is and how strong his impact is, he is just a speedy winger, as a Welshman, his skills are not particularly good, and leaving two people in the backfield is not enough to beat them?

For speed-type counter-attacking players, one sticker and one heel are enough, even if Ronaldo comes, he will only have to rest when he is played like this. Bale is certainly not as good as Cristiano Ronaldo, and Barcelona's defenders are very fast, and there will be no backlash like Bayern's players, so what's there to worry about? Two people are enough.

However, when Tottenham launched a counterattack for the first time, they knew that Tottenham's counterattack was not so easy to break.

When Yaya Toure got the ball and kicked it down the right flank, everyone knew it was time for Bale to strike. Barcelona's left-back Abidal is the slowest and it would be unconscionable not to break through here. It's just that what people didn't expect was that he rushed out of the road almost at the same time as Bale, and Di Maria, when defending, his position was also close to the middle, and when Yaya Toure passed, he also almost rushed out of the right side, and on the right side of Tottenham, for a while, the two breakthrough masters rushed towards the backfield together.

"Concentrate two wingers on one side? Li Bin's counterattack is well arranged! ”

The two wingers who counter-attacked quickly were a huge threat to Barcelona's backline, especially when Gerard Pique was happily running up front to join the attack. Bale played the ball to Di Maria with ease on the wing, and the two men played a beautiful one-two to leave Abidal behind, and then the two men cut inside almost parallel to each other and rushed towards Puyol in the box.

Puyol, however, was stuck in a good position at this time. He's a little behind the penalty area, and in that position he can make sure that whether they want to shoot from the top of the arc or cross from the bottom, he'll be able to intercept it well. Bale rushed in front of him, but found that his passes, breakthroughs, and breakthroughs could be intercepted by him, which made Bale also admire in his heart: Puyol's defensive skills are indeed good. He had heard Li Bin say that Cannavaro was in the penalty area, and he could do it with one pick and three, and he couldn't see that miracle, but now, he saw Puyol dealing with the two of them alone.

And behind him, Valdés has also rushed out, although he is a goalkeeper, but at this time, he has to act as a scavenger to meet the needs of the team. He was behind Puyol, close to the post, so that if Bale went down, he could intercept, if Bale gave the ball to Di Maria, Puyol could intercept, and the two-on-two situation, although still not particularly good, finally stopped Tottenham's quick counter-attack.

"There are still half a redundant defender behind Barcelona, Valdés is here, and he can still play a lot of roles......"

Lineker has some regrets: Barcelona and Tottenham both play in this way, with the goalkeeper acting as a half-back and participating in the penalty area. Tottenham's counterattack is very good, but Barcelona's tactics, coupled with Puyol's strength, make Tottenham's attack not particularly certain.

Pique had already chased back, and at this time, Bale saw that there was no way, so he shot directly and kicked the ball towards the far post!

The ball slammed the door frame, and with a crisp sound, it popped out of the door frame. Pique, who was chasing back, received the ball and kicked it directly out of the bottom line, solving the false alarm.

"Tottenham's counter-attack seems to be sharp, but there is still no way to break through the door of Barcelona, and they should not have many counter-attacks, so there is not much significance ......in such an attack."

Lineker suddenly stopped talking to himself, he saw Bale walking towards the corner, he asked the caddie for a ball, and then tried to rub the ball, and half a day later, put the ball on the corner.

'In the last game, Tottenham didn't take corners so seriously. This is a special situation. Moreover, it seems that all along, Tottenham's corner kicks are taken by Bale, we only remember his speed, but we seem to ignore that Bale's other role may be a corner kick tactic! ”

Lineker's words weren't finished when one of Bale's curling shots flew away. His ball arc is very large, the landing point is biased towards the back point, it is a very good ball, and at this time, in the penalty area, the Tottenham players are also running forward together.

Tottenham's height advantage is evident at this time. Among the Tottenham players on the field, none of them were under 180cm, and their opponents, the high point of the backfield, counting the 178cm Puyol, were only three - Buzques was not low, but his body, fighting for the header was a joke - in the face of such an opportunity, Tottenham took advantage of it very well, and Palmeri at the back point scrambled and pushed the ball towards the goal!

Valdés reacted quickly to lift the ball over the crossbar and didn't let Tottenham's attack succeed, but Rao was so scared that he himself broke out in a cold sweat.

'The last game was against Tottenham at Camp Nou. The length and width of the pitch at Camp Nou are much larger than White Hart Lane, and even in England, it is difficult to find such a big pitch. Therefore, in that game, Tottenham's set-pieces basically had no chance to make a difference, and the pitch was too big, which made the players very uncomfortable. But in this game, things seem to be different. Tottenham Hotspur has a natural advantage in set-pieces playing at home, they are more suitable for their home stadium, and Tottenham, who are playing at home, has the help of rain - the rain is slippery, affecting the bounce, which is a very bad news for Barcelona, who are generally short of height......"

Barcelona's set-piece defence has not been particularly bad: in general, the world's set-piece defence is now a combination of zone defence and marking, and Barcelona is no exception. They are accustomed to having other players mark their opponents, with the two centre-backs running freely to intercept and fill in the positions. This style of play, combined with their ability to run in good positions, has always been good defensively, at least against La Liga teams.

However, Tottenham is not a La Liga team. Compared to La Liga teams, they are physically better, stronger, taller and better at fighting for the top, which is a common trait of all Premier League teams. In the corner kick attack, the physical contact with the opponent is the most, and it is closer than pressing the defense, and in the corner kick attack, the bounce and height are also the most. Tottenham have the upper hand in all of these areas. Although it is said that Tottenham's ground attack is not organized now, when it comes to corner kicks, they can still make the opponent speechless!

Who says Bale can only fight back?

Even if you send off our players, we still have more highs than you - unless the referee really kind of sends off the five of us, otherwise, no matter how much you penalize, we still have more highs than you! On this familiar field, we can win no matter how we play!

If there are many high points, there must be enough tactics to cooperate. And the Tottenham players, since the game against Bayern, have been thinking about how to rely on corner kicks to gain an advantage. It wasn't until this time that they used this tactic.

Bale's corner kick came out, this time, Thiago Silva, who was at the penalty spot, directly pushed away Butzques next to him, rushed to the front, he took a few steps forward, almost jumped up with Pique next to him, and then, relying on the impact and height after running, he easily overwhelmed Pique, grabbed the player, and on Pique's head, he shook his head violently and blasted the ball towards the goal!

“gooooal！ Tottenham players scored!! Thiago Silva!! It was an amazing goal, he scored for Tottenham, an absolutely beautiful goal! Tottenham took the lead with one man less and Tottenham scored! ”
