Chapter 52: Attack and Defense

Ask the world, who are the heroes? Talking and laughing, my lord ups and downs!

The young man sitting opposite Lin Xiao was faintly looking at the back and forth of the expedition on the screen, as if he had been a spectator of this game all along, and all the battles on the screen had nothing to do with him, and even, on that energetic face, there was a shallow smile.

When a person is laughing, it's hard to guess what he's really in.

Lin Xiao inadvertently glanced at Hua Manlou, and for some reason, the other party's seemingly non-hostile smile made him can't help but shiver.

Fighting with yourself is like a leisurely stroll, and the strength of the opponent is really terrifying.

Almost instantly, Lin Xiao made up his mind. To break through Hua Manlou's defense and force Hua Manlou to make mistakes, the key is still a "fast" word.

Martial arts in the world, only fast is not broken!

Even if it is as strong as a flower, it will definitely "show" its flaws under its own fast attack!

This is Lin Xiao's choice! He believes that the end of this road is the lifeline of Huamanlou!

Come on!

As the national champion, Lin Xiao is actually still a master who is good at fast attack, but he was affected by the tepid rhythm of Hua Manlou before, and he has not been able to let the game enter his own rhythm.

At this moment, with the rapid passing of Robben, Van der Vaart, Sneijder and Van Persie outside the penalty area, coupled with the flexible movement of Ruud van Nistelrooy in the penalty area, Lin Xiao is gradually finding his rhythm.

From a certain point of view, the contest between the two sides of the game can actually be abstracted into a battle of rhythm between the two sides. Whoever can control the rhythm of the game, and who can limit the rhythm of the opponent, will dominate the game!

Therefore, as Lin Xiao accelerated his passing and cutting speed, Hua Manlou's defense was no longer as airtight as before. Especially, when Hua Manlou is using a team that he is not good at.

The competition is like that, any change in the details, the effect will be immediate.

Although the Uruguayan team is also a South American powerhouse, after all, it is a notch behind Argentina, and the brave but elegant eagle on the Pampas is absolutely unique in the world. The ball style full of flowers, romantic and dazzling, is like an eagle over the grassland, dominating the green field that belongs to him.

Now that the eagle is not there, Hua Manlou is naturally quite affected, and from this point of view, Lin Xiao's psychological tactics before the game still played a great role. When Hua Manlou controlled the Uruguayan players' predetermined positions, he found out that Recoba was not Messi, and Forlan was not Crespo.

So, after Lin Xiao suddenly accelerated the pace of the game, Hua Manlou was really struggling for a while.

Around the 15th minute of the first half, Lin Xiao controlled Robben to fake a "shot" on the left side and shook the opposing defender into the penalty area, passing the ball to Vanney in the middle. Although Uruguay's defenders had already stood in position, and this pass would definitely be cut off, but at the critical moment, Ruud van Nistelrooy, known as the world's No. 1 center forward, squeezed in front of the defender.

It's a classic hard-hitting. Since Hua Manlou doesn't want to be close to him, then I will take the initiative to squeeze your guard with my body! This is Lin Xiao's plan, and it is also the death "hole" of Hua Manlou that he found.

Generally, a master with gorgeous skills will definitely not be good at hand-to-hand combat.

Although Lin Xiao is not an expert in hand-to-hand combat, since he has identified the weakness of his opponent, he can only move forward without hesitation, not to mention, his Dutch team also has the strong enough body to make any defender fearful, Van Nistelrooy!

Ruud van Nistelrooy didn't stop after receiving the ball and immediately sent a backheel knock to Van Persie in the back, who took advantage of the fleeting gap to 'shoot' the first 'shot' of the two teams since the start of the game!

The power is amazing, the angle is perfect! This kind of "shot" is almost fatal to any opponent!

But, it's a pity that he is facing a man who can never be measured by normal thinking!

At the same time as the goal was just shot, Uruguayan central defender Lugano was like a white lightning bolt, and a sliding tackle cleared the ball.

What is the best defense for Pro Evolution Soccer? Maybe it's attack, but I think the best defense is not to let your goalkeeper have any chance to make a save, and all the attacks or 'shots' from the opponent are cleared up before they get close to the goalkeeper!

If Hua Manlou used the Argentine team he was best at, maybe Lin Xiao would not have gotten the opportunity to "shoot" this time at all. It was precisely because the Uruguayan players were a notch lower than Argentina in both offensive and defensive awareness that Hua Manlou had to make a sliding tackle that was extremely rare for him.

After the ball was cleared, it flew directly out of the sideline, and in the momentary pause of the throw-in, Hua Manlou smiled and whispered: "Okay, that's it, I'm going to fight back!"

Lin Xiao frowned, and his face became even more ugly.

The throw-in was issued, and Lin Xiao was about to launch the next round of onslaught, but what he didn't expect was that Van Persie, who received the ball, stopped the ball directly out of the sideline.

This was an extremely low-level mistake, Lin Xiao shook his head helplessly, but Hua Manlou still looked honored and disgraced.

The ball was handed over to Hua Manlou for the first time, and it was undoubtedly a terrible thing for anyone to let Hua Manlou get the ball. Lin Xiao worked hard for nearly twenty minutes, not to defeat him, but to delay time, as long as he conceded less than three goals, although the result was not good-looking, but at least he won Chu Tian.

Instead of fighting to the death, it is better to ensure the victory over Chu Tian. After all, even if he loses to Hua Manlou, it is not a big deal, the other party's name is too loud.

Lin Xiao is smart, when the game is so hot, he can still make a rational analysis of the form in front of him, and then avoid the important and formulate his own strategic policy.

However, it is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. He counted everything and still ignored one thing.

That's his opponent, Hua Manlou.

With more than 20 minutes left in the first half, Lin Xiao has never lost three goals or more in his entire career. So he has this confidence. At this time, even his potential opponent Chu Tian had to admit that Lin Xiao had won. No matter how strong Hua Manlou is, it will be difficult to score three goals in 20 minutes.

However, there is never an absolute thing on the football field, and there is no such thing as a professional evolution soccer!

Hua Manlou's first touch of the ball came from the opponent's sideline ball error, and Lin Xiao immediately knew that this mistake would be fatal.

Uruguay have never been a speed team, nor have they been a technical team, but that doesn't stop them from being a South American powerhouse because they have a talented player whose name is Recoba!

Uruguay sent a quick sideline ball from the back, and the backcourt player immediately launched a long counter-attack when he got the ball, this time the long ball landed so accurately that it landed right at the feet of Recoba.

Lin Xiao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, just after the mistake in the front, his team retreated quickly, the only not obvious loophole was the right-back Heitinga, he just ran back to his position, before he had time to catch his breath, he found that the Uruguayan with the face of a Chinese had rushed to the front.

The game then went completely into full time. Recoba shook off a breathless Heitinga with a simple change of line, and then a volley dodged Dutch defender Van Bommel who came to make amends. The whole action was done in one go, extremely chic, and attracted bursts of applause from the audience.

However, this is only the beginning of the show.

Recoba continued to break forward. But instead of going underneath, he shook off Van Bommel and headed for the middle.

This is Hua Manlou's consistent tactical thinking.

Since you want to ride alone, it is undoubtedly the best choice to go straight to the middle, because if you go down to the side and then force the inward cut, in addition to facing the fullback, you also have to face the central defender, and put the attacking route in the middle, and your opponent will only be left with the central defender.

At this time, Recoba, like a heroic savior, single-handedly rushed into the enemy ranks.

For Lin Xiao, he used to attack others, but now he was disturbed by the opponent alone, so it was inevitable that he would be a little flustered when defending, but he was still relieved at the moment that he still had two central defenders in the middle, Stam and Baoma, even if he was full of buildings, it was still difficult to succeed if he wanted to go straight to the middle.

As a result, he didn't direct either Stam or Bouma to come forward to block the tackle, and he stubbornly assumed that Recoba would pass the ball to his team-mate on the penalty line.

But he forgot again, he forgot that Hua Manlou is a guy who will never pass the ball as long as he can break through with the ball by himself, the shocking battle with Zhou Yunfei in the Famous Sword Pavilion a few years ago has now become a distant memory in Lin Xiao's mind, and the only thing he remembers is Hua Manlou's long roar in the sky after the game:

Ask who the heroes of the world belong to?

It can be said that technically, Hua Manlou is a person who has played Pro Evolution Football to the extreme, which even Zhou Yunfei can only sigh for.

Therefore, Lin Xiao quickly paid the price for his self-confidence.

Recoba did not pass the ball to Forlan in a better position as Lin Xiao thought, but slashed into the penalty area, and when Lin Xiao began to hurriedly organize the defenders to come forward to intercept, Recoba suddenly made a sudden stop and stepped on the ball under his feet, and poor Baoma rushed out due to inertia, so he easily lost his position.

Hua Manlou set a trap like a seasoned hunter and waited for his prey to fall into the net.

Now there was only one Stam left in front of Recoba.

For Lin Xiao, Stamm is tantamount to the team's Dinghai Divine Needle, but in the eyes of Hua Manlou, Stamm is just a veteran who is no longer the brave of the past!

Lian is quite old, can he still eat?

Before Van Bronckhorst and Heitinga arrived to help, Recoba used a flashy and provocative move - the Marseille maneuver!

When this action is over, Recoba will only have a goalkeeper older than Stam left in front of him - Van der Sar!

If in the past, Lin Xiao's defense would never be so weak, but when he faced Hua Manlou, he couldn't help but feel inferior from the bottom of his heart. As the game progressed, this inferiority complex became deeper and deeper, and he clearly felt the gap between him and his opponent, and as a result, the inferiority complex began to transform into fear.

Those psychological advantages that have been accumulated before the game have long been exhausted.

Let's make a last stand!

The aged Van der Sar abandoned the door and pounced on Recoba.

Recoba, on the other hand, did not miss this good opportunity, a fake 'shot' really shook off Van der Sar and took the ball into the goal with ease......

1 to 0......
