Section 24 The arc of the broken door
Ajaccio's celebration lasted for two minutes, and to their unacceptable moments, the score was levelled just ten minutes later.
After holding the ball in the box, Govu took Squeerage with his back and knocked the ball back to Carrier in midfield. Carrière fired a long-range shot straight into the bottom left corner of the goal, but Silva couldn't make a timely save to make it 1:1.
Although before the game, everyone knew that Lyon was strong and it was normal to lose, but it was a bit frustrating to see that the lead lasted for such a short time before someone equalized.
Zhao Yaning couldn't help but look at Ge Wu and Carrière, he also knew these two people, but he didn't expect them to be so strong.
Ge Wu's anti-aircraft gun just now made Zhao Yaning see him a lot clearly. But seeing his height of more than 1.7 meters, not only is his speed outstanding, but he can also withstand the push and pass of Squeerage who is 1.85 meters in the penalty area, you can imagine how good his strength and sense of balance are.
Although Carrier is a fringe international of France, when he played in the national team, he had the efficiency of scoring one goal in two games, but he has always been a little-known person. The core of France is Zidane, and the second plan is also Arsenal's Pire, although Carrier is known as Zidane's successor, but Zidane is not old, whose class will he take? What's more, he can be regarded as a late bloomer, already 27 years old.
However, seeing such a point-grabbing and shooting ability, Zhao Yaning could only nod secretly: to be able to beat Miku to become the third plan of the French national team, he is still at a very high level.
Despite conceding a goal, Coach Koubis didn't look like he had much to adjust. Lyon are much stronger than Ajaccio, and it will be difficult to adjust the lineup. It's the young guys on the pitch who have just scored a goal and then they are careless, and that experience is especially important for them.
"Joey, you do us a favor when we're defending."
Captain Colin took advantage of the other party's celebration and walked over to talk to Zhao Yaning, "You go and entangle with that guy named Juninho, pay attention to hindering him from receiving the ball, and try to drive him to the middle." We're playing a tight defence now and trying not to let the opponent stretch wide. ”
Zhao Yaning nodded, Colin looked at him and laughed, "Don't just nod, on the court, speak louder." Don't be so shy. ”
Zhao Yaning nodded again, and at the same time, he immediately realized that he was wrong.
Colin laughed twice and ran away.
There is a lot of communication on the field, and there is no way to play well without communication. Any team sport is based on mutual trust and mutual help, and if there is no communication, it will definitely not be enjoyable. Colin's words are very important, Zhao Yaning's personality is more dull, but on the court, this must be changed.
And what he said about participating in defense is the opposite of the task given by the coach, but now, he has to go.
Lyon's formation is special. Their two defenders, De Flander and Casapa, are not particularly attacking but are tall and powerful, and can play as centre-backs. Although their midfielder is tall and strong, he is a midfielder in terms of technical characteristics, and his defense is not particularly fierce.
To compensate for this, their coach gave them the approach of getting on the ground and Vivianfo pressing on as a central midfielder, while the two centre-backs, Muller and Edmilson, were added to the midfield position.
When Zhao Yaning scored just now, Muller was too deep in front and had to guard against Rodriguez. And Edmilson dragged his feet alone and got into trouble.
With such a formation, there would have been no need to worry about the opponent pulling away the width - at least Lakombe on the other side would not have worried about this problem. He is facing Dorasso, the French international who is less than 170cm has technical characteristics very similar to the legendary French midfielder Tigana, small, delicate, flexible, has strong attacking ability and tandem ability, and can not be said to be useless defensively - his characteristics are similar to him in the future, but stronger than him, even Ballon d'Or, and that is Barcelona's Andres Iniesta.
But this type of player is not very good at long passes, especially crosses. Although Dorasso is nominally a left midfielder, he still has to move closer to the middle when he kicks the ball, and his role can only be maximized if he participates in the attack in the middle, breaks through with the ball, attracts attention, and forms a cooperation with his teammates.
Originally, Juninho was not valued by Kubis either, and it was for this reason. Juninho is a Brazilian player – and it's no secret that the Brazilian is not good at heading, but he is very fluent in his small technical skills. Therefore, in Doraso's opinion, it should be unlikely that Juninho likes to attack with long balls.
But the result was unexpected. Although Juninho can also get the ball in the middle, because Vivianfo, Dorasso, Carrier, and the retreating Sonny Anderson are all in the middle, it doesn't make much sense for him to go to the middle again, so he prefers to stay on the wing. And after he got the ball a few times, the sharp long ball that came out was almost every time it hit the heads of the Lyon players, if it weren't for the fact that he had been in Lyon for a short time and a little rusty cooperation, Ajaccio was afraid that he had been overtaken.
Regeragi also has to take care of the task of defending in the middle, so only Zhao Yaning can be responsible for Juninho's entanglement. It's not quite the same as the coach's arrangement, but there's nothing to do about it now.
Fortunately, his task is only to prevent him from receiving the ball smoothly, thus forcing him to move to the middle - Zhao Yaning is self-aware, he is not a player who is excellent defensively, and does not have the ability and awareness to play one-on-one with the opposing midfielder. But at least, he can still do it by running at the expense of his physical strength and keeping the opponent from scoring.
Lyon's attack soon came again, and Juninho looked at the crowded middle and took two steps back. He has just arrived in Lyon, this kind of small technical cooperation needs tacit understanding the most, once he passes, not only will it not be of much help, but it may disrupt the smooth offensive rhythm, and it is not as lethal as it is on the wing.
This time, though, the dark-haired kid immediately ran over and stood guard not far from him, trying to block the ball from passing to him.
Juninho is no longer new to being cared for. He also understands that Ajaccio is playing a dense defense, and it will not be easy to do it once he pulls the width away, so he will send someone to watch him specifically. Although he is just a full-back, Lyon's cooperation is not skilled enough, a full-back's hard running, coupled with the echo of the fullback, if it is done well, it is still okay for Lyon not to dare to divide the ball.
But Juninho is not in a hurry. He's not a young rookie, he's been playing in Brazil for so many years and he's seen everything. He just ran back and forth on the side unhurriedly, not reaching for the ball at all, and not thinking about the attack.
This time, Lyon's attack was once again culminated by Govo's anti-aircraft guns.
"Sidney, you don't feel good if you don't give a few balls to the stands every game, don't you?"
On the court, Doraso opened his mouth and cursed. However, his scolding was a bit playful, but it was more like it was deliberately said to the players of Ajaccio.
"Don't relax, now is not the time to relax!" Colin was yelling at his teammates, too, but it sounded much weaker.
Do these guys know how to play this trick?
Zhao Yaning was a little strange, he always thought that only big-name stars knew how to use psychological warfare on the court.
But that's clearly not the case.
The game went on. Although Ajaccio had possession on a couple of occasions, they simply couldn't dribble the ball up front. After Edmilson made a background board, he has learned a lot now, and when defending Zhao Yaning, he is not so big. Although Zhao Yaning almost broke through him once, he was successfully intercepted by Juninho, who was chasing back, and broke the ball.
What made him even more uncomfortable was that Juninho's rhythm change on the side road began to make him unbearable - his speed was not fast, and his explosiveness and absolute speed were only at Zhao Yaning's previous level. But he has a good sense of rhythm, and several acceleration and emergency stops make Zhao Yaning feel miserable, if it weren't for the help of Regeragi, coupled with the extremely fast speed, he really couldn't stand this kind of running. That's not tiredness, it's more of a destruction of people's spiritual will.
"I can't get old enough to come back and help you." Once again, he accidentally leaked the ball to Juninho, and after shoveling the ball out of the bottom line thanks to Regerraghi's supplementary defense, Regeraghi couldn't stand it either, "The pressure in the middle is even greater. If you can't prevent it, if you really can't do it, just foul it. ”
Foul? Zhao Yaning was a little surprised.
Of course, he is not a good gentleman like Lineker who has never eaten a card in his life, but if he fouls because he can't kick it, isn't that a bad tactic?
"What kind of eyes are you, and it's not for you to kill. He's from South America, and if he looks like this, he's a midfielder, and if he fouls a few more times, his guts will be small, and it's useless. ”
After explaining this, Regeragi went to defend the corner. This time Lyon's Juninho's corner kick didn't work, although Sonny Anderson grabbed the first point, but the angle was too straight and was blocked by Silva's palm, and Squeerage's rare eye was quick to clear the ball out of the touchline.
Should it be fouled?
Juninho got the ball. Regeragi stared at him unrelentingly until he brought the ball near the baseline and there was little space. The next step was definitely to take a step back and get the ball in and cross. Regerraghi knew this routine well, but Juninho gently pulled the ball back and forth in place, but he couldn't find the rhythm at all.
Suddenly, Juninho's foot left the top of the ball and knocked it back. Regeraghi immediately stretched out his leg and tried to block his cross. However, the action was very light, the ball was only under the control of the left foot, and Juninho immediately followed with a big step to completely shake off the Regeraghi defence.
However, at this time, Zhao Yaning made up for it, and it was immediately a tackle that fell to the ground.
He didn't kick the ball or the man. But his movements were so ferocious that he knocked Juninho down. The referee blew the whistle immediately, and in the process of running over, he had already put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a yellow card.
Shoveling people on the side, it's still such a ferocious action, but it's not wronged. Fortunately, Zhao Yaning's mind was not confused, and his feet did not leave the turf, otherwise it would not be too much to give Zhang Hong.
Zhao Yaning stretched out his hand to pull Juninho a little apolologically, he didn't want to do this, but he was not a defender, and he didn't know much about the foul skills.
"It's not your fault." Juninho stood up, his French was very jerky, about the same level as Zhao Yaning, "The defense is in place, it's just that the next time you make a small move, it's not good to really hurt people." ”
Zhao Yaning blushed even more. He thought that he could scare his opponent by doing so, but who knew that Juninho was not only not afraid, but also enthusiastically guided his lack of skills, which made him even more embarrassed.
"Boy, be careful next time." Edmilson, who ran over, slapped Zhao Yaning, "Don't be so frizzy, if something really goes wrong, I can't spare you." ”
"Don't be angry with the kid, he didn't mean to." Juninho stood up, checked the shin guards, and changed his speech to Portuguese, "The little guy is very fast, you are vicious, you freak him out and can't kick him out." ”
"Who knows if he did it on purpose." Edmilson is not a good person, and he is not so gullible, "But it's okay, it gives you a chance to play." ”
Juninho smiled and set the ball up, looking up at the crowd in the box.
It's not very far from the goal, it looks like it's more than twenty meters. But the angle is very tricky, only about 10 degrees. Edmilson looked at this angle and frowned, "I'll grab the back point, Sony is in the front point, you can watch it." ”
"If I look at it, I want to get one."
Edmilson looked at the angle and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Only you dare to be so confident at this angle." Okay, I'll go back to the defense. ”
"Let's wait until you're done celebrating with me."
Zhao Yaning looked at Lyon's players a little strangely. It was just a free-kick from a tight angle and it was very difficult. Squeerage is a bit slower, but he's tall and big, and he's a good header. With such a goal, how can they smile as if they have already scored.
Juninho took two steps back, stooping slightly to glance ahead. Then, he took a sharp step forward and slammed the ball into the ball with the inside instep.
Zhao Yaning's pupils shrank suddenly-in this world, there is such a free kick!
What a free kick it was! With an arc, with falling leaves, extremely fast, extremely precise - and the most incredible thing is that the ball did not spin in the slightest!
How is this done?
“goal!!!!!”
Even the on-site commentary couldn't help but shout. Although it is Ajaccio's home stadium, this goal is so beautiful that even the home team's audience can't help but applaud him.
"I said your free kick would dominate the whole Ligue 1!" Edmilson rushed up and hugged Juninho.
The goal that went straight to the goalkeeper, past the goalkeeper, and bounced on the back post, anyone who saw it would be very excited.
Zhao Yaning looked at the goal blankly, but there was another thought in his heart.
"A free-kick like this is enough to rule the whole world."
