Chapter 494: The princess hugs Messi
Not only did he have an old relationship with Yu Nagatomo, but Chen Mo actually had a relationship with Shinji Okazaki, the left midfielder of the Japanese team.
When I was 14 years old, I went to Japan to play the Hope Cup, and the night I met Kaoru Tsukichi wasn't playing football at the beach, and Shinji Okazaki was on the opposite side at the time.
However, compared to friends like Yuto Nagatomo, who stayed together for an offseason, Chen Mo and Shinji Okazaki are nodding friends.
When he returned to the vicinity of the middle circle, seeing that the other party did not take the initiative to say hello, Chen Mo didn't say anything, but just moved his body while waiting for the coach to whistle to kick off, and at the same time, his eyes kept wandering on the Japanese team players.
Japan played 4231 in this game.
This set of formations is more essential oil, belonging to the 451 full offensive and defensive formation, three forwards can provide the width of the left, middle and right three roads when attacking, and there are two back waists at the top of the arc when defending.
Still, that's the problem.
No formation in the world is perfect, or there is a perfect formation in the concept, but in reality there are no 11 players who can support a perfect formation.
The weakness of Japan's 4231 formation at the defensive end is the flanks of the double back midfield.
The 4231 formation is a single striker, so when the Japanese team attacks, the two players on both sides of the 4231 3 have to press up.
Not to mention pressing the winger position, it is also necessary to press higher than the normal full-back, so as to provide width, otherwise there is no space at all, and the Japanese team does not have a high striker, so it is difficult to directly blow up the cross at 45 degrees.
However, it is impossible for the two midfielders to completely cover the side when defending, and excessive pulling will lead to a gap in the middle, so it is still necessary for the two fullbacks to withdraw to defend.
When attacking, you have to press up and take on some of the winger duties, and when you defend, you have to fall back and make up for the space on both sides of the back.
This is very demanding for the ability of 3 in 4231, which requires all-round offensive and defensive skills, and is also a physical monster with strong running ability.
But Japan is now Shinji Okazaki, Shinji Kagawa and Keisuke Honda.
These are three pure attacking midfielders, and even Shinji Okazaki is directly a striker in a cameo role as a left midfielder
This kind of staffing with this formation is, to be honest, a bit deformed.
"Either the coach is not skilled enough to dare to offend people."
"Either they feel they can't hold it and want to give it a go."
"Either way, though, it doesn't matter."
I kept thinking in my head, and after a while, with the cheers in the sky, the referee's whistle also sounded in the Thousand Lakes Sports Center.
No, as soon as the whistle blew, Higuain in the middle circle knocked the ball back directly, and the ball was still rolling towards Chen Mo's feet, Shinji Kagawa rushed over, and at the same time Keisuke Honda went to find Di Maria.
Yes, find Di Maria!
But when Keisuke Honda was about to stick to Di Maria and not give Di Maria space to receive Chen Mo's pass, he was shocked to find that Di Maria did not return to the midfield, but directly pressed to the left winger position!
Yes!
Astound!
In the pre-match report of this game, Argentina submitted a formation of 433!
The midfielders are Xiao Ma Chen Mo and Di Maria!
Although I didn't understand too much why Argentina was Aguero, Higuain and Messi formed a forward trident, after all, Aguero's effect as a winger was not good, but the curtain was not long from the start of the game, and there was not much time to think, and no one would have thought that Argentina would play 424!
This formation is rarely used in today's football, and Argentina and Chen Mo Messi have never played this formation before!
There is no doubt that Di Maria's front pressure stunned Keisuke Honda, but it wasn't just Keisuke Honda!
On the spot, the corners of the old horse's mouth with both hands in his pocket hooked a hint of a sinister smile, and the head coach of the national Olympic team that day, Mori Baoyi, rushed to the sidelines and yelled with an unexpected face, and when He Wei in the commentary seat shouted 424, it was already too late.
One of the biggest advantages of the 424 formation is that there are more forwards, and the more forwards can pull the opponent's formation to the sides to the maximum, thus creating a more relaxed environment for each striker.
With Di Maria pressing directly to the left winger position at the beginning, Messi pressing to the right winger position, Aguero and Higuain grabbing a central defender by themselves, the formation of the Japanese team directly became a fishnet sock that was pulled apart to the sides!
"Defend first!"
After all, he is the one who can wear the AC Milan No. 10 jersey, and the corner of his eye caught the moment when Di Maria's running position was wrong, Keisuke Honda immediately slowed down and prepared to retreat, but Chen Mo didn't give him a chance.
Now because Argentina suddenly played 424, the Japanese team's midfield and backfield defenders' positions are a little chaotic, as long as you break through Keisuke Honda, dribble forward and then attract other players to defend the position, the Japanese team's already shaky defense is likely to completely collapse!
Without any hesitation, almost at the moment when Keisuke Honda slowed down, or even a moment ago, facing the ball rolling towards his feet, Chen Mo directly hit the instep of his right foot!
Storm!
"Argentina actually launched a direct attack at the beginning! It seems that Chen Mo wants to seize the opportunity when the Japanese team didn't react! ”
"Yes! No one would have thought that Argentina would play 424! But there is no doubt that they took the Japanese team by surprise! The Japanese team's defense line is in chaos! ”
Under the watchful eye, Chen Mo drove the ball along the middle lane towards Keisuke Honda!
Storm!
But it's a small trip!
Keisuke Honda, who retreated all the way back, was extremely uncomfortable and shocked, because every time the ball seemed to rush in front of him, but every time the ball rushed to two-thirds of the distance, there would be a significant slowdown!
"This slowdown is not normal!"
"He gave the ball a downspin?!"
"Can you still do this kind of micro-manipulation in the process of making such strides?!"
Stunned, looking at Chen Mo who was running all the way, looking at the ball that could be stolen by himself every time he bounced a little further, Keisuke Honda's eyes widened, and his heart was full of disbelief!
Unbelievable, of course.
To be honest, Chen Mo didn't master this skill before, but in the past month or so, he has not only been running in tacit understanding with his teammates to run in tactics, but also has various individual exercises with Lao Ma, and will also discuss a lot of whimsical ideas for playing football with Lao Ma!
And here is also a big difference between Lao Ma and Messi!
Messi has received a formal football education from La Masia since he was a child, and the old horse was kicked out of the streets of the slum!
Messi's action skills are more sharp and simple, while Lao Ma's style is more whimsical!
And the dribbling characteristics of the two are also different!
When Messi is dribbling, the rhythm of the man and the ball is the same most of the time, the distance of the ball bounces forward is very short, and even, if the height of the camera is relatively high, then you can't see the ball at Messi's feet at all, as if he is one with the ball.
This is because Messi's grasp of the distance of each ball is the strongest in history, and it is also the strongest in high-frequency direction change, as long as the ball is controlled within the range that can be touched by the outstretched foot, Messi at his peak is invincible, and he can change direction crazily.
The old horse is different, the old horse's grasp of the ball distance may not be lost to Messi, but his weight far beyond the weight of players of the same height brings too much pressure on the center of gravity!
Messi's official height is 1.7 meters and his weight is 72 kilograms, and Lao Ma's official height is 1.65 meters and his weight is 79 kilograms!
This kind of weight is destined to make it difficult for the old horse to achieve the level of Messi in terms of high-frequency and high-stability change of direction, but just like Chen Mo, the strong body gives the old horse stronger explosiveness and impact!
Lao Ma allows the ball to leave his pace range at certain times, because he is physically fit and can accelerate to start chasing the ball, but it is a very dangerous thing to get the ball out of his control, because it is easy to be cut off by the defender, so how to stop the ball in the area where he wants and the defender can't reach it, this is very crucial!
And one of the keys to this is to spin!
The old horse will spin the ball!
Chen Mo himself also likes to spin the ball very much!
One has the world's top experience, the other has the world's top talent and foundation, and still wants to learn, Chen Mo may not have made much progress in terms of physical fitness and change of direction in the past month or so, but in terms of spinning the ball, it can be regarded as a flower!
And today, this flower bears fruit!
In the exclamations of the fans in the audience, Chen Mo advanced rapidly with the ball, and it was a trip!
On the sidelines, the distance was too far away, and Mori Boichi, who couldn't see the problem, was still shouting for Keisuke Honda to break the ball, but as everyone knows, every time Chen Mo took the ball, it looked like Keisuke Honda could break it, but it was just a short distance!
This feeling can only be felt by the parties, and those who are talented enough!
It can't be broken at all!
Ignoring the coach's compulsion on the side of the venue, Keisuke Honda just stared at Chen Mo's feet with both eyes, and retreated all the way at the same time.
The idea is no problem, Keisuke Honda is the middle of the 4231 3, he retreats to the midfield position, and the Japanese team's defense is stable, but!
Useless!
Chen Mo's speed is too fast!
And this kind of violent trip with spin was originally to let the ball rush to the farthest distance and release his Chen Mo's speed of sprinting without the ball!
In the field of vision of the fans in the stands, Chen Mo almost closes the distance with Keisuke Honda at a speed visible to the naked eye, and at the same time it is like a fishing line, as the distance gets closer and closer, Chen Mo's cadence is getting faster and faster, and the ball under his feet is getting shorter and shorter!
In just two blinks of an eye, Chen Mo rushed in front of Keisuke Honda, and at this time, he did not continue to rush, but switched to a broken step penalty!
"Is he going to pedal a bike or a pendulum?!"
Squatting slightly, opening his hands, and retreating, Keisuke Honda stared at the ball at Chen Mo's feet with his eyes, preventing Chen Mo from changing his direction!
Who doesn't know Chen Mo's extraordinary ability?
But in the next second, "What?!" ”
Just when Keisuke Honda's attention was all focused on Chen Mo's passing matter, Chen Mo, who rushed in front of him, suddenly hit a right diagonal plug with his left foot, and there, it was Messi who suddenly retreated!
Yes, Keisuke Honda thought that he Chen Mo was going to pass, but this is a stereotype, this is because Keisuke Honda does not have a deep understanding of the formation of 424!
Chen Mo has more passes in the past two seasons because Arsenal's forward line is not so fierce, he needs to provide fire support, and he also needs to take risks to try, and at the same time, Arsenal's formation also bears the risk of his failure!
But now Argentina has four strikers, where do you still need him to be?
And the double midfielder of 424 can't take the risk after his Chen Mo's failure!
Keisuke Honda didn't understand this, this is the gap in tactical understanding!
And this gap directly led to the sinking of Japan!
Just when Keisuke Honda was still subconsciously turning his head to the left because of Chen Mo's sudden pass, Chen Mo once again exploded with a violent rush and rushed directly to Keisuke Honda's right shoulder!
One back, one forward!
There was no suspense, in the blink of an eye, Chen Mo rushed to the right rear of Keisuke Honda, and at the same time, Messi's pass came just right in front of him!
"Beautiful! Perfect match against the wall! The tacit understanding between Chen Mo and Messi is too strong! ”
"Chen Mo is facing the back! The Japanese team is in the whole line, and they can't take care of the side! ”
"Rush rush! Kill the devils! ”
"Chong, Chen Mo!"
In less than ten seconds of the opening game, Chen Mo hit the hinterland of the Japanese team, this scene instantly ignited the emotions of the fans in the audience, and they all stood up and waved their flags and shouted, but Chen Mo couldn't hear these noisy sounds!
"They're so fast!"
"It's a pity that Zabaletta isn't fast enough!"
The wind was whistling in his ears, and he rushed to the back waist with the ball, but Chen Mo's eyes did not look at Xi Beimeng, but kept swinging his head to observe the running position of his teammates.
And at this sight, he frowned.
Messi retreated and hit the wall with himself, at this time the right-back Sabaleta should press up as a winger, but Sabaleta was not fast enough, and now he did not run to the right front of his Chen Mo, but parallel to him!
At this time, either he Chen Mo slowed down and waited for Sabaleta to run to the front, but the Japanese team obviously focused on defense, and the whole formation was very fast towards the middle, and the speed was reduced and waiting for Sabaletta, so this offensive opportunity was missed, because there were too many people in the middle, and it was difficult to grab points in front of the goal!
"Defend against this attack!"
Zabaleta didn't keep up with the rhythm, this is something that is very easy to see, looking at Chen Mo who rushed towards him with the ball, the Japanese defender Xibei Meng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
But at this moment, the afterglow of his left eye suddenly swept to a black shadow in his field of vision and cut into Chen Mo's left back, and at this moment, Chen Mo's cadence suddenly changed, and his left foot took a big stride to the left front of the ball, and then dragged the heel of his right foot to the left!
Knocked horizontally, and in the next second, under the tense gaze of Xibei Meng's whole body, in the exclamation of the fans in the audience, Messi, who had just sent a pass to Chen Mo, suddenly rushed out from behind Chen Mo and led the ball to the top of the arc!
"Oh my God! How did Chen Mo see Messi?! Messi just left him in the right rear corner! ”
"This is the Argentine twins! Unparalleled tacit understanding! ”
"Leave that alone! Two against one! The fine shellfish is in trouble! ”
He Wei yelled, and the fans in the audience exclaimed, under the gaze of everyone, Chen Mo, who sent a horizontal knock with his right heel, did not slow down, but broke out again and stepped forward!
Extrapolation towards the left shoulder of the fine shell moe!
And Messi also quickly adjusted the angle after receiving the ball, and inserted it into the gap wall in the middle of the left shoulder of Makoto Hasebe, another Japanese midfielder, outside the left shoulder!
Double ghost knock on the door!
Two-on-two!
It seems to be two against two, but in fact, it is a partial two against one!
Because Chen Mo only has the fine beimeng in front of him on the left, and there are no defenders in front of him!
And Messi's forward insertion is also very fast, and Makoto Hasebe has not completely moved sideways to block the middle!
"Who should I defend against?!"
In front of the left is Chen Mo, and in front of the right is Messi!
The fine shell is numb again!
Moved to the left to seal the passing route of Messi and Chen Mo, Messi cut directly to the top of the arc, and went to the right to bet on Messi, Messi directly plugged Chen Mo!
And more importantly, now Argentina is in a 424 formation!
Even if Messi comes down from the front line, Argentina still has three strikers in the front line, and Argentina's two fullbacks are also pressing!
There is no doubt that from the moment Chen Mo and Messi collided with the wall and cooperated with Keisuke Honda, the power of the 424 formation has been completely full!
The defenders of the Japanese team did not dare to fill in at all!
If you can't go up, you can't go down!
Racked!
The defense of the Japanese team was directly framed!
The fine shellfish is also framed!
But Messi doesn't care so much, the moment he rushed in front of Xibeimeng with the ball, his eyes were aimed at Xibeimeng's crotch, and at the same time, his feet slightly adjusted his cadence, and the next second, it was directly a left-footed straight plug!
"Wear the crotch! Oh, my God! The Japanese team's midfield defense has been completely penetrated! ”
"It's so beautiful! Chen Mo took the ball and faced the backline! ”
The audience exclaimed again, and under the watchful eye, Messi directly broke through the last line of defense of the Japanese midfielder with a kick through the crotch, but the performance was not over yet!
At the moment when Chen Mo led the ball at the top of the Japanese team's arc a little to the right, Higuain, the left center who had been stepping on the back line, suddenly shook off the central defender Maya Yoshida, who was marking him, and then quickly retreated from the penalty area line to the top of the arc!
It's less than two steps, but it's these two steps that Argentina's offensive level comes out!
————— Aguero
— Higuain
———————— Chen Mo
Messi ————
Without any hesitation, the moment Higuain retreated, Chen Mo hit a left diagonal plug with his right foot!
"It's over!"
Seeing the ball rolling to Higuain's feet, Mama Yoshida, who knew that he was in trouble, did not hesitate and immediately pasted it on Higuain's back!
Vigorously topped, and there is a hugging action in the hand!
There is no doubt about this kind of action, Maya Yoshida wants to replace Argentina's attack with a free kick, or even a free kick with a yellow card, but unfortunately, the moment he sticks behind Higuain, Higuain, who has his back to the Japanese goal, has swept the ball rolling in front of the left with his right foot to the left back!
There, it was Aguero who fiercely framed the Japanese team's central defender Morishigema!
Speaking of which, it's really not a family, and it doesn't enter a family.
Aguero is not tall, but his body is very strong like the old horse, bending over and stretching his arms, the center of gravity of his body sinks, and his big ass sits down, directly squeezing the 1.83-meter-old Mori Shige real person behind him and can't move!
"Flowing water! Argentina's attacking coordination is so beautiful! ”
"Aguero is going to get the ball on the penalty line! But he didn't turn and shoot at the corner. Oh! Wait a minute! What a situation! Sergio Aguero leaked the ball?!! ”
"Oh my God! Chen Mo has entered the forbidden area! What a speed! ”
"The Japanese team has retreated from all !!"
The commentary roared, and the fans in the stands were instantly excited!
Under everyone's gaze, Chen Mo, wearing the No. 10 blue and white jersey, directly entered the right side of the Japanese team's penalty area from the left side of Aguero and Morishige, and at the same time, facing the ball rolling in front, Aguero stretched out his left foot to meet the ball and shoot, but in the next second, Aguero's left foot slid above the ball!
Didn't touch the ball!
In the desperate gaze of the real man Mori who was fiercely pushing against Aguero's back with a horse step, the ball passed through Aguero and his crotch and was sent behind him, where it was Chen Mo who was inserted forward!
"It's over!"
Mori Shige Zhenren pulled out the cold in his heart, but he didn't give up and chased back as soon as possible!
Not only is he a real person, but in the nervous and expectant eyes of the fans, the entire Japanese team is chasing back towards their own goal like crazy!
Yes, chase back!
Higuain took the ball in the semicircle at the top of the arc, and Aguero leaked the ball on the penalty line, so although Chen Mo entered the penalty area, he was still some distance away from the goal!
"Chen Mo received the ball on the right side of the goal, is he going to shoot?! He was very good at shooting into the top corner of the post! ”
"Japanese goalkeeper Shusaku Nishikawa must know this too! Chen Mo has the possibility of being blocked when he draws the upper corner! But the Japanese team has already blocked the goal! Chen Mo also didn't have a chance to shoot far angles, etc.! What a situation! Chen Mo sent an inverted triangle cross with his right foot! Oh, my God! All the players of the Japanese team rushed to the door with Chen Mo, and the players of the Japanese team were huddled together! ”
"Messi is at the penalty spot! Left foot pocket! Pretty! Pretty! Pretty! The ball is in!! Less than half a minute into the game, Argentina took the lead in breaking through the door of the Japanese team! Oh! Oh my God! Argentina's attack is too beautiful! From the moment Chen Mo found Messi to hit the wall, every touch of the ball by Argentina was a kick! There is not a single bit of mud and water! ”
"Mercury Fall! All I can say is mercury in the water! It's wonderful, Argentina's offense is wonderful! ”
"That's right! Now let's congratulate Messi! He scored the first goal of the men's football team of the Games! And it came so quickly!! ”
He Wei's passionate celebration echoed over the Qianhu Sports Center, and more than 30,000 fans in the stadium, as well as in the trees, in the water, and in the buildings outside the stadium, all places let out deafening cheers!
The match of this ball just now is so beautiful!
After Chen Mo entered the penalty area, he attracted the attention of the entire defense of the Japanese team, there was no way, mainly because Chen Mo could push the far corner and send crosses, while Aguero and Higuain rushed to the goal for the first time after completing the pass!
The Japanese player must retreat to a position close to the goal line to prevent Chen Mo from pushing the far corner and prevent Chen Mo from sending a bocce ball to the cross!
But this kind of defense is prone to overlapping runs because of the suddenness of things!
Under the attraction of Chen Mo and others, the Japanese team's defense was directly pressed into a line in a panic, and finally shot with his left foot into the upper left corner with his left foot when Messi was almost unguarded at the penalty spot!
With such a wonderful combination, all the spectators watching the game were a complete climax, not only the spectators!
On the sidelines, Maradona was so excited that he swung his fist, made a strange scream and high-fived the coaching staff, and on the field, after the goal, Messi had jumped into Chen Mo's arms for the first time to run to the corner, and the result may have been a slippery hand, Messi didn't hug Chen Mo's neck, and the result
One didn't hug his neck, and the other was quick with his eyes, so he became a princess hug.
