Chapter 272: Offensive opportunities are also graded
Deng Kai moved wide to find Viana, who was empty on the left.
Viana stops the ball and passes it back.
With the successive runs of Ronaldo and Viana, Viana's original left rib position was completely vacant.
Mateus cut in from behind and fired a blast.
The German cannon did not fire, and when it fired, it was often a killer move.
βGOALοΌ Mateus! That's amazing! This long-range shot is earth-shattering! β
"Mateus breaks the deadlock and gives Sporting Lisbon the lead!"
"Shoot through the bucket from a distance! In fact, with Gaziantep's two counter-attacks failing to advance to the danger zone, we knew that the balance of victory had come to Sporting Lisbon's side. β
'Under siege, it's only a matter of time before you score.
With this goal, Sporting Lisbon will play much better.
Thirty-seventh minute.
Deng Kai and Quaresma switch positions.
Viana passed the ball to Quaresma, who combined with Drogba and pulled out Drogba to go straight into the box on the right side.
Deng Kai and Quaresma thought of going together, and he received the ball near the baseline.
Because he has entered the big penalty area, the opponent does not dare to foul easily.
Deng Kai caught up with the football and pulled it one by one, and turned his back to the sideways Marseille maneuver.
The central defender who pounces on the crotch of the football moves along the baseline towards the goal.
As soon as Deng Kai and the opponent touched the score, they ran outside the baseline and completed a beautiful man-ball pass.
Didier Drogba rushes in from the penalty spot to ask for the ball.
His location is excellent.
He pulls back and then plugs in, with no actual defender around him.
But again, everyone looked at Drogba, rushed towards him, or tried to block the inverted triangle between Dunkai and Drogba.
Bang!
Deng Kai watched Drogba twitch with his left foot.
The ball went through the crotch of the central defender who came over the position.
If Dunkai finds Drogba, it's a perfect tackle.
But Deng Kai ......
The soccer ball sweeps in front of the goal and moves almost parallel to the goal.
Lately, the distance between me and the goalkeeper was less than a metre.
Whenever the goalkeeper is prepared, he can hold the ball or kick it away.
However, everyone's attention, including the goalkeeper, is on Drogba, where did you expect Deng Kai to come with an outrageous cross in front of goal?
Especially when Deng Kai passed the ball, he didn't even fully run into the bottom line, his horizontal position overlapped with the goalpost, and the goalkeeper couldn't be seen at all.
How could he be sure that a pass so close to the goalkeeper would not be confiscated by the goalkeeper?
Too much thinking is decided in a blink of an eye.
Bang!
At the back of the goal, Ronaldo, who came in, pushed the ball forward.
Although the angle is not big, it is better than the empty goal, and there is no need to consider the goalkeeper's reaction.
Therefore, the difficulty of shooting is small.
βGOALοΌ Cristiano Ronaldo! Deng Kai assists Ronaldo to complete the goal! Nice fit! β
"Deng Kai deceived the whole world, including his teammate Drogba! Drogba even made a prep for a shot in advance! β
"Only Ronaldo knows what Deng Kai thinks, worthy of the players who have played together since the youth training period, they have telepathy!"
"Two to zero! Sporting Lisbon extended their lead. β
Forty-first minute.
Quaresma's long-range shot from outside the box won a corner.
His corner was headed over by Drogba, but the ball hit the opposing defender and was cleared.
Or a corner.
Deng Kai took a corner kick, and Gaziantep's central defender fought to the first point, or a corner.
A succession of corners may seem powerful, but they are often the harbingers of conceding goals.
Deng Kai's corner kick this time should not only consider the attack, but also avoid being contested by the opponent, so he can't make too risky attempts.
That's why there are a lot of teams that look for the same point when they get multiple corners in a row, which makes them seem a bit rigid and lacking variety.
No change is stability.
Deng Kai kicked out.
Fonte, Barzagli, Drogba, and Ronaldo jumped almost simultaneously in the middle, forming a wall of people in the air.
Drogba jumped the highest, and with the best luck, he found football.
Swish!
Football simply goes into the net.
"Ahh
Drogba couldn't be more excited!
The African elephant from Ivory Coast and France's Didier Drogba finally broke his goal drought and scored another goal for his new club.
Backbite!
The linesman raises the flag.
The referee blew the whistle and signaled that the goal was invalid.
The referee thought that Drogba had a clear offensive foul, and the reason why he jumped so high was because he overturned the defender and used the opponent as a stool to take off.
Sporting Lisbon's players gathered around the referee, but they could not change the referee's decision.
Drogba's whole soul is gone.
His first goal still didn't come.
But in the midfield of this team, someone has scored two or three.
He's in a hurry!
The last minute before the intermission.
The two veterans in the backcourt showed off.
After Mateus and Didier Deschamps collided against the wall, he dribbled past defenders and posed a huge threat in the middle.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Viana, Drogba, Dunkai and Quaresma all shot at the same time.
Mateus pointed out at will.
Among them, Deng Kai was slightly slower, and his running position was deliberately close to Drogba's direction.
It seems to be the tightest of two defenses.
But can a legendary midfielder like Mateus see Deng Kai's intentions?
Bang!
Mateus made a straight stop.
Hit Drogba directly at his feet.
But the power and speed of this pass is not like it is for Drogba.
It's too fast.
If Drogba hastily stops the ball, it is possible to stop the national football team.
"Oh, how could Mateus pass like that? Isn't that wise? 'Marksa can understand some football now and he thinks Cristiano Ronaldo on the left and Quaresma on the right are in a much better position, they are almost 100 per cent able to receive football.
Or for Viana, who is far away from Drogba, and the defenders in front of him are closer to Drogba in order to take care of Drogba, who is the most threatening man.
Trigra shook his head in a low voice: "Now that Mateus has the ball, he has almost hit the threat or this attack to the seventh gear. Passing to Ronaldo or Quaresma, the attack is actually still in seventh gear, or even into sixth gear. β
"You can hit the goal in every gear, but the higher the gear, the higher the probability of scoring goals."
"Don't look at the deeper positions of Cristiano Ronaldo and Quaresma, it seems more dangerous, but in fact they are more on the side. The threat of a cross from the wing is always lower than the threat of a split ball from the middle. β
"If you give Viana, it's possible to move the offense up to eighth gear. But the eighth gear is also divided into good and bad. β
"The centre-back on Viana's right seems to be closer to Drogba, but he's facing Viana, and before Viana receives the ball, he can run in front of Viana and defend it head-on."
"In this case, it depends on Viana's one-on-one ability or quick reaction, which is not tactically successful."
