Chapter 232: One Trip, One Pass, Collapse of the Defense Line!

Cambiaso was a little surprised to see several Wolfsburg players who pounced on him like hungry wolves.

However, in Real Madrid and Inter Milan, the two giants have played the main force in the back, what scene have you not seen?

I saw that he was not in a hurry, passed the ball to the drinking brother who answered on the side, and then calmly ran the position.

Unlike Barcelona's Sergio Busquets as a lone midfielder, Cambiaso also has a very large area of Drinkwater by his side to help him out.

In this way, he can greatly circumvent his physical problems and give full play to his experience in controlling the field in the midfield position.

And after Cambiaso passed the ball, the Wolfsburg front trio slowed down and gave up pressing as if they had entered sage time.

After this set of operations several times, the Blue Foxes coach Pearson on the sidelines also saw the opponent's defensive strategy!

First of all, Ling Feng was pinched with a double back to make him not so easy to take the ball.

This strategy did not come as a surprise to him in the slightest.

In addition, the frontcourt players of Wolfsburg adopted a strategy of "surround but not grab" against Cambiaso.

Dost, Schurrle and De Bruyne roamed around Cambiaso, maintaining a triangular position and faintly encircling it.

And whenever Cambiaso wants to catch the ball, the Wolfsburg frontcourt players will suddenly start to accelerate as if they have pressed a switch, and pounce on Cambiaso!

If they are close, they will force Cambiaso;

Far away, he stood between him and Ling Feng, intercepting his forward pass.

Obviously, Wolfsburg are also well aware of the importance of Cambiasso for Leicester City's midfield and backfield.

Compared to Cambiaso, Drinkwater is more focused on defense, and his passing vision and awareness can only be said to be average.

Once you pinch Cambiaso, the point of contact between the back and front, with Leicester City's ability to play the ball at the back, there is a possibility of passing errors!

Thinking of this, Pearson suddenly felt very happy.

He was glad that he let Maguire, who has a certain ability to play the ball, start and help the ball out of the backcourt!

"Danny! Run more empty slots! ”

"Harry, you go up on top!"

"Be bold with your passes! Don't be afraid to make mistakes! ”

So, in the shouts of the manager on the sidelines, in addition to Drinkwater's continuous response to Cambiaso, Maguire, as the central defender who played the ball, was also slightly preceded by the position, forming a triangle position with the two midfielders.

As soon as Cambiasso or Hydrator gets the ball forward and passes it back to Maguire, he will split the ball and pass it to Jesse Lingard on the left or Mahrez on the right.

In this way, Wolfsburg's very targeted frontcourt pressing strategy was cracked by Maguire alone!

However, even if he was able to pass the ball to the front court, Ling Feng, who was sandwiched by two midfielders, could not easily take the ball.

However, it is definitely good for Leicester City.

Because, once the two backs are pinned down by Ling Feng in the middle, they can't make up for the defense to the side.

As a result, Wolfsburg will have fewer defenders on the flanks, giving Lingard and Riyad Mahrez more room to play on both sides!

In the eighteenth minute of the game, under the siege, Cambiaso passed the ball back to Maguire again.

Maguire looked up at the left and right wings, then made a direct pass and handed the ball to Mahrez, who retreated to the right.

The latter took the ball with his left foot and immediately advanced with the ball, taking the initiative to meet the left back of Wolfsburg, Swiss international Ricardo Rodriguez, nicknamed "R Ronaldo"!

At just 22 years old, Ronaldo is the left side of Wolfsburg and the Swiss national team.

Since last season, the Swiss with a beard and a ball-tied head has been the second best player in Wolfsburg after Kevin De Bruyne.

This one, not only is he reassuring on the defensive end, but he can also contribute nine assists and five goals on the offensive end!

Crosses and free-kicks are particularly good at footwork, often delivering the ball to teammates' heads with precision.

Such an outstanding performance has also made him attract the attention of major European giants.

In the summer window, Ricardo Rodriguez's name is frequently associated with European giants such as Real Madrid, Bayern, and Juventus.

This season, because of his continued outstanding performance at Wolfsburg, many Bundesliga fans have blown the Swiss fullback, who is less than 23 years old, into the sky.

There are even Wolfsburg fans who think that he already has the level of the world's top full-back, even better than Real Madrid's Marcelo!

In the face of Mahrez's advance, Ronaldo's expression was solemn, just leaning sideways, fighting and retreating.

Even if Mahrez made a series of feints in the upper half of his body, it could not shift his body's center of gravity.

In desperation, Mahrez looked up to the middle of the road, trying to find the possibility of cooperating with Ling Feng.

And at this moment, Ronaldo seized the fleeting opportunity and slammed the ball at Mahrez's feet out of the sideline!

In this regard, Mahrez just raised his hand to Ling Feng, who ran over to meet in the middle, and then came to the sideline, ready to receive the ball.

However, when Simpson threw the ball at him, he was pinched by Ronaldo in the back of the back, and then there was a pain in his lower back.

Immediately afterwards, Ronaldo cut off the ball with a direct card and crossed directly to the middle and handed it to De Bruyne.

Fortunately, when Tintin was about to advance with the ball and launch a counterattack, the experienced Cambiaso directly fouled him, strangling the attack in the cradle.

At this time, Mahrez complained to the referee very dissatisfied, claiming that the No. 34 was playing a trick behind him.

However, the referee did not see it at all, and there was no such foul action.

The protest was fruitless, and Mahrez could only swallow this dumb man in his stomach.

As the weather gradually warmed up, after losing the bonus of the super legendary equipment [Winter Gloves], Mahrez's competitive form has declined.

Although after Ling Feng was restricted by the regional defense, he gained more possession and space.

However, with Leicester City's eye-catching performance, Mahrez, who has contributed seven goals and seven assists in all competitions, has also become the focus of other opponents.

Everyone knows that among the front three of the Blue Foxes, except for Ling Feng, Mahrez has the strongest ability to hold the ball.

Therefore, he has also been a little uncomfortable by the defenders recently.

And in this game, opposite him was the top fullback R Ronaldo who was at his peak.

In the following period, Mahrez repeatedly won one-on-one opportunities on the wing.

However, Ronaldo, who is above him in speed and physical fitness, has an excellent rhythmic type, and it does not work so well.

Regardless of the feint, Ronaldo remained motionless, allowing him to start first, and then using his explosive physicality to get in position to break the ball or clear it off the touchline.

In the thirtieth minute of the game, the situation on the field was still very anxious.

On the Leicester side, several people in the front field were separated by Wolfsburg, and they could not form an effective echo and cooperation.

Ling Feng was closely followed by two black back-back bodyguards, with almost no chance to get the ball, so he could only keep running and pulling space;

Mahrez, on the right, was defended by Ronaldo and had no temper at all;

Vardy, who was at the front, could not get the support of his teammates, and could only run again and again, exerting his physical strength.

As for Wolfsburg, De Bruyne is the most active.

As the oldest football magazine in Germany and the world, Kicker Magazine rates all Bundesliga players every year at the halfway point of the Bundesliga and after the Bundesliga season.

From high to low, there are four grades, which are world-class, intercontinental, international, and noteworthy.

In the first half of the season's ratings, only three players were ranked as world-class.

That is the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich's Robben and Neuer, and Wolfsburg's De Bruyne!

Such a rating is enough to prove how good he has been this season!

The Belgian midfielder's movement on the pitch is erratic, and his position is not limited to the middle, and his figure frequently appears on both flanks to organise with the ball.

Neither Shui Ge nor Cambiaso could keep up with his tempo, allowing him to deliver all sorts of dangerous crosses.

Fortunately, the Blue Foxes' central defenders in this game, Hut and Maguire, are in a good position, and there is no mistake in the frontal air defense ability.

Repeatedly managed to defuse the crisis by pushing the ball out of the box before Wolfsburg striker Dost could scramble to shoot.

Even if there is no goal yet.

However, judging from the situation on the field, Wolf Castle, which came from afar, actually had a slight upper hand!

Speaking of which, Wolfsburg has been able to achieve its current record in the past two seasons is definitely not due to luck.

On the one hand, backed by the wealthy Volkswagen Group, it has recruited many powerful players in the transfer market in the past two years.

In the lineup, there are famous players in each position on the front, middle and back three lines, and the overall strength of the players can be ranked in the top three in the Bundesliga.

You can even come up with a starting lineup that is almost all internationals!

On the other hand, it is De Bruyne's arrival that completely gives this team a midfield commander who really leads the team!

It's very important for a team to have a core of players.

The team can develop corresponding tactics around the core players, and then the other players can also be led by the core players, twisted into a rope, and work together!

What's more, this core is the world's No. 1 attacking midfielder in the future!

Speaking of which, the rise of Ling Feng and De Bruyne has a certain overlap.

Both of them relied on their individual abilities and talents to elevate the Blue Fox and Wolfsburg to the heights they are today.

It is worth mentioning that both men only became part of the team's first team in January 2014 and then gained the trust of the manager and team-mates in a short period of time and became the heart of the pitch.

Before the game, many Bundesliga fans felt that Ling Feng, the new European golden boy, was just the darling touted by the media.

If you really want to talk about personal strength, De Bruyne will definitely explode Ling Feng!

And judging from the current performance of the two, De Bruyne is indeed superior.

Thirty minutes passed, and the number of times Ling Feng got the ball in the front court was not even as good as the team's central defender Maguire.

Seeing that the team fell into passivity on the field, the Blue Fox fans in the stands began to sing "Lingfeng Song" under the leadership of die-hard fans such as William and Bob of the Fox Club

The song is full of fans' support for the team.

They want the core of the team to step up and turn the tide!

At the same time, the footage of the scene was also frequently given to Ling Feng.

"The King Power Stadium resounded with a loud song. This is the personal exclusive song of Leicester City's No.7 player Ling Feng. Obviously, at a time when the team is on the back foot, fans want the young man who has led them to defeat their opponents again and again, playing the role of a hero! ”

"However, the Foxes prodigy was heavily targeted by the opposition in this game, with Wolfsburg's two midfielders following him and being violated as soon as he got the ball!"

The singing of the fans echoed in my ears.

Seeing that the team was suppressed by Wolfsburg at home, Ling Feng also realized that it would not work if it continued like this!

So, he decided to make a change!

He beckoned to Lingard on the left, and then said loudly to him:

"Jesse, let's change positions!"

Hearing this, Lingard did not have any opinion, and immediately nodded in understanding.

He's on the left and he's barely doing anything.

Defending him was Portugal international Vierinha,

Vierinha, who was born as a winger, is short but has good speed and balance.

Lin Huang, who is not good at one-on-one on the side, can't pass him at all.

Every time he got the ball, Ling Feng could only play some passes with Vardy, who came over to respond.

However, compared to Ronaldo on the other side, Vierinha on this side is definitely a relatively weak point in the Wolfsburg backline.

Ling Feng thought that he was completely sure that he would tear open the gap in Wolfsburg's defensive line from this side and threaten the opponent's goal!

Moreover, when Lingard arrives in the middle, he can also make full use of his ability to hit the air and connect with him.

This is also the reason why Ling Feng chose to switch positions with Lingard!

Soon, both the fans in the stands and the coaches of both sides on the sidelines saw the exchange of Ling Feng and Lingard.

And this transposition, the effect is immediate!

After Ling Feng came to the left, Maguire's pass in the backfield was able to find him.

In the 37th minute of the game, Ling Feng retreated to receive the ball on the left side, and then advanced with the ball along the side.

Gustavo made up for it as soon as possible and assisted with Vierinha in the defense.

However, in the face of the two people's defense, Ling Feng was not polite at all, and directly flicked the instep of his outer foot, and the whole person turned into a blue afterimage, passing between Gustavo and Vierinia!

The two of them didn't even have time to reach out to pull him, they could only see his whizzing back.

This wave of simple and crude breakthroughs directly ignited the enthusiasm of the home team fans on the spot.

"Yes!"

"That's it!"

"Ling! Kill them! ”

Cutting inside to the big penalty area, facing the oncoming central defender Klose, Ling Feng first shot with a gesture, and after deceiving the opponent to make a blocking action, he directly shook his ankle and sent a through ball with excellent weight.

With just one pass, the defense line of Wolfsburg collapsed in an instant!

At the moment of Ling Feng's pass, Vardy, who was standing parallel to another Wolfsburg central defender, Naldo, understood it.

He didn't hesitate to cut diagonally behind Klose and received the ball in the box.

Wolfsburg's two centre-backs are over 1.9m and are simply too slow to move.

So much so that Vardy in the box could observe the goalkeeper's position and then calmly make the choice to shoot into the far corner!

With a bang, the ball shot out!

Draw a graceful arc in the air, fly past the hand of Swiss international Benaglio, and turn into the goal behind him!
