"We should attack!"

"The defense can't be carried out!"

"Who's going to restrain Suke?"

"Cheer up!"

In England's dressing room, there was a mess.

Everyone was squabbling about how to deal with the second half.

If they lose this game, they're going to be eliminated.

Eliminated from the European Championship qualifiers, it was a great shame for England.

In the chaotic locker room, England coach McClaren's face was also extremely ugly.

There is no way!

There is no way at all!

After the first step is wrong, every next step is limited.

For them, the second half must be a goal!

This is the premise of winning the game, in order to score goals, you have to strengthen the attack, but what about the defense?

Carragher, John Terry and Rio Ferdinand couldn't contain Suker, something that was proven in the first half.

But if you put substitutions into defense, the offense can't be replenished!

Changing formations?

Switching to a back four?

This may be one way to do it!

But it will also inevitably consume some of the midfield's control.

The good news, though, is that Croatia are counter-attacking and they have no intention of fighting for control of midfield.

"In the second half, Gary. Neville drops back to play full-back! We're playing in a 4-4-2 formation! ”

McClaren said: 'Frank Lampard can press forward and look for long-range opportunities up front, while Crouch plays as a central striker and Wayne Rooney looks for opportunities behind him. ”

Staring at a distrustful gaze from an English player, McClaren said in a deep voice; "If you don't want to lose, do as I say!"

McLaren gritted his teeth.

It was the last thing he could think of.

It can not only protect the offense, but also increase the defense.

Let's hope you won't be caught by that damn Croat this time!

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

England boss McClaren watched as Suker continued to pound the defence on the flanks, hoisting the ball into the box again and again, and at the same time running to the ribs to kick the ball, his face pale and his fists clenched.

"Damn! Caught again! ”

In front of the Croatian dugout, Van Sted Ajak smiled sinisterly.

"You guessed that England would be Gary. Neville dropped back to full-back and switched to 4-4-2, so did Suker play as a wing-back? Bilic looked at the pitch and muttered to himself.

Vansteak shrugged: "It's a good guess that we must not only protect the offense, but also strengthen the defense, and without substitutions, we can only let Gary. Neville drops back to play a back four! ”

Bilic felt a headache, how could these people who played tactics have so many eyes.

"What if he hadn't?" Bilic asked a question.

Vansteak laughed: "Is there anything to lose to us?" ”

Bilic muttered, "yes, what's to lose?" We're still ahead and we're still able to hold the line, it's just a counter-attacking formation, and as long as they can't catch Suker, that's no problem! ”

Bilic turned his head to look at the England dugout.

He saw McLaren looking at him, too, eyes that seemed to breathe fire, and if they could kill, Bilic felt like he had been killed countless times.

"What are you looking at!"

Bilic glared back.

Defeated!

"It's time to finish!" Vansteak said, "Bilic, it's time for you to speak. ”

Bilic grinned slightly, and that's all he had to do as a manager.

"Strikers, ten minutes to go!"

As soon as the words fell, Croatia's attack became more intense.

At half-time, Vansteak made it clear that there were only 15 minutes of attacking chances in the second half.

At this time, he will play defensive tactics regardless of whether he scores or not.

For this reason, when there were only ten minutes left in the attack, Croatia's attack became more sharp.

In the middle of the pitch, after Suker unloaded the ball, he stopped the ball and began to dribble horizontally along the line of the big penalty area.

There are only 10 minutes of attacking time, and if you want to win, you need to score another safer!

Suker dribbles horizontally while also keeping an eye on his teammates' movements.

The most strange thing is that England's defenders did not step forward to restrain him.

He's going to shoot!

Suker picked up his right foot and feigned a shot.

Not yet?

Suker ran for a feint, but seeing that the opponent was not moving, he stepped forward again and shot again.

This time, Suke is here for real!

Bang!

The ball arcs to the right corner.

However, the England goalkeeper was very focused, and when he made a save, he smashed the ball away with his fist.

But the ball was not far away, and flew straight into the air.

"Fight for the spot!"

Terry roared loudly.

Just as he was about to take off, someone was already flying in from the sky.

That's right!

It's just flying.

Mandzukic moved sideways through the air and he jumped early, rubbing the ball with his forehead as he pressed Terry down.

The ball bounced off the ground and flew straight into the net.

On 56 minutes, Croatia scored again!

Mandzukic is the only one!

"Roar!!!!!!!! ——”

Mandzukic was thrilled and rushed to the corner to celebrate.

As he approached the corner, he was just about to slide the rail, when he was suddenly grabbed by the waist.

I saw that Sukmanzukic's waist did not let him slide.

"What are you doing?"

Suke smiled.

Mandzukic turned his head to look at the stands, and he was about to raise his right hand when he was suddenly imprisoned.

Modric grabbed Mandzukic's arm.

"You guys. . . You guys," Mandzukic choked.

Lao Tzu finally won two yuan alone, isn't this a celebratory one?

In the end, Mandzukic was stunned and failed to make any celebratory moves, and was directly knocked down by Su Ke and others.

"Well done, Mario!"

Mandzukic was uncomfortable.

Throughout Wembley Stadium, England fans have become sluggish.

In the second half, we conceded another goal.

It was more devastating than the goal conceded in the first half.

I thought I could ease the situation in the second half, but I didn't expect to concede another goal.

After two goals down, they became terrified.

They really can't go to Austria and Switzerland.

"Prepare for a substitution!"

Vansteak punches hard; "Get rid of England once and for all!"

On 57 minutes, Mandzukic and Pranic were substituted.

Simic and Dujmovic came off the bench.

Croatia retreated across the board and began to play defensively.

With a two-goal lead and then a drop-back defence, Croatia made it clear that they were going to finish England out.

At this time, England was also panicked.

They kept attacking and shooting hard.

They just wanted to put the damn ball into the Croatian goal.

It only takes two goals for them to go to Austria and Switzerland, but Croatia won't give them that chance!

England fans were saddened and they felt like they were really going to be eliminated.

At the same time, the whole of Russia is boiling.

Opportunity!

Great opportunity!

Croatia are really going to take out England on their home turf.

A win for Croatia would see Russia top the points and they could finish second in their group to qualify for the main stage of the European Championships.

Arguably, Croatia's win is the best news for Russia.

The players of the Russian national team are also watching the game.

Arshavin looked at the TV, Croatia's restraint towards England as a whole, and his heart shook slightly.

These guys, they're so flattened!

"In the first round, the head coach of Croatia made a lot of mistakes in the tactical arrangement, but it is estimated that he was too nervous when he first took office, and then his performance was very good, reasonable tactics, excellent on-the-spot command, just from this game, McLaren was completely bitten to death by Bilic!"

Hiddink sighed slightly, but he was also a little confused.

Bilic, the Croatian coach, why is there a lot of shadows of the Dutch tactical template in his tactical adjustments?

Did this guy go to school in the Netherlands?

He saw it when they faced Croatia in the second round.

There are really very few teams that can push high to Croatia's level.

This pressure also deprived Hiddink of many tactical options.

It has to be said that the Croatian young coach named Bilic has shown the potential of a top coach.

Hiddink stood up on his knees.

"Coach, are you leaving?"

Arshavin asked.

Hiddink nodded; "There's no need to look any further, we've already qualified, congratulations!"

Hearing this, the Russian players looked at each other, and in an instant, they erupted in violent cheers. 、
