ball at foot

Liverpool's goal was scored just 10 minutes after the first half, which caused a burst of cheers from all the Liverpool fans.

Although one goal is not enough to seal the victory, but one goal ahead is enough to kick the momentum.

"Villarreal paid the price for their pride. The way of playing with a single midfielder is outdated, and they can't play like that now. They are too proud to do this."

Martin Taylor was quick to comment on the goal.

Indeed, the practice of single midfielder is indeed somewhat behind the times. [

Since the European Cup in 04, the double defensive midfielder has become popular all over the world.Except for some La Liga teams that insist on attacking, most teams will no longer insist on playing with a single midfielder.

Barcelona may be the only team that still uses a single midfielder-but when Barcelona plays, it also relies on the active counter-attack of the frontcourt players to ensure that they do not lose the ball.Moreover, after Harvey was seriously injured and quit the main lineup this season, Barcelona's midfielders sometimes used Van Bommel and Edmilson's double midfielders to play. The problem that the single midfielder's defense is easy to be penetrated is already very obvious. .

In this game, Villarreal's head coach, Manuel Pellegrini, who is known as a Chilean engineer, did so because he was betting on three things: one is that Riquelme's organizational talent is enough to make Liverpool's midfield advance and retreat loss of evidence.The second is Senna's defense, which is enough to make Liverpool's progress not so smooth.And the third is to bet that Liverpool, as a Premier League team, will not be as clever as a La Liga team in terms of coordination.

This bet cannot be said to be all wrong.At least, Riquelme played well, and Senna did defend well.But what he missed was an offensive method that Liverpool used more and more: large-scale transfers.

Liverpool's attack is accustomed to a large range of transfers on the two sides. This attack method can deal with the siege well, and at the same time can better penetrate the opponent's ribs.The long balls of Liverpool's wide players are not bad, so they also pay great attention to developing this style of play.And what they originally prepared was to deal with La Liga teams that had a good ground pass and received a good counterattack on the spot.

But this time, several Liverpool players completed the attack well.

"Just do it like this, we can definitely win!" Several players in the frontcourt clapped and celebrated.It will be much easier to score a goal. What needs to be considered now is how to expand the advantage.

With this attack, Liverpool also began to control the situation a little bit.The Liverpool players started to run faster at this time.After all, in the eyes of most people, the way to speed up may be the best way to deal with Riquelme.Riquelme is slow and slow to play the ball. His style of play always seems out of tune with modern football. If he plays fast-paced football, he may not be able to last for too long.

The overall rhythm of Villarreal is controlled by Riquelme. If he can't play a role, the final winner of this game will naturally only be Liverpool.

However, when Liverpool's speed gradually accelerated, their advantages did not stand out.After Villarreal shrunk properly, they built a very good defense in the backcourt instead. In the midfield, Riquelme did not lose his role, but kept cruising around looking for Chance.

This made Zhao Yaning also start to doubt: Why haven't they made adjustments, or what are they waiting for?

Suddenly, Zhao Yaning thought of something: Although he noticed Riquelme’s slowness, he still ignored one point: Riquelme’s slowness was not his own slowness, but the slowness caused by his playing habits to the team as a whole .His habit of defending the ball with the ball is mainly based on technology. When encountering high-intensity confrontation, he lacks effective means of breakthrough, and too many falls will also cause a lot of meaningful free kicks. At the same time, due to Riquelme's too strong control desire will make the team's counterattack speed unable to improve.But based on this conclusion, Riquelme's playing is slow in rhythm, which is a big mistake.

Riquelme's own speed is slow, but he has the ultimate control of the ball and rhythm, and is very good at grasping the change from slow to fast: since his debut in 97, he has no shortage of precedents for cooperating with fast players .Most of the Argentine players do not lack speed, and Riquelme has worked with the extremely fast clown Aimar since the National Youth Team. To say that he lacks such experience is really to underestimate him.And after 05, his partner in the national team became Messi, a little dancer. No matter which fast player came to him, he could play with ease. Riquelme and Messi played this year The combination of the two is very exciting, one movement and one stillness, one fast and one slow style of play, which is just right by Riquelme, and this has always been the source of the excellent viewing of the Argentine national team.And when he arrives at the club, he will definitely not forget how to play football. He has never lacked fast teammates, let alone the ability to grasp the speed-based style of play.It is of course possible to fight against him by relying on rhythm, but it is impossible to deal with him simply by speeding up and blindly reckless.

They are waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.It is true that Riquelme's many playing styles are not suitable for modern football, but, no matter what, his passing ability is an excellent one.If he was allowed to find a chance to fight back, he would definitely seize the opportunity.

After realizing this, when Zhao Yaning got the ball again, he was no longer eager to attack.He controlled the ball and passed it to Alonso behind him.However, Alonso kicked the ball into the penalty area. Obviously, he has not reacted yet-this is a trap for Villarreal.

The ball was intercepted by the opponent, and this time, they handed the ball to Riquelme immediately.

When Riquelme turned around, it was already near half-time.Sissoko rushed forward at the first time, but Riquelme dunked the ball with his right foot to the back of his left foot, then stepped back with his left foot, pulled the ball with one step, turned around, and evaded Sissoko.At this time, Diego Forlán had already run to the backcourt, and Riquelme passed the ball with one foot on the ground without hesitation, and sent the ball out!

A 30-meter straight ball - this kind of football is extremely rare in modern football. This kind of ball is too risky. Playing games with this kind of ball is likely to be a waste of opportunity !

But Riquelme is the one who passes the ball, and things that waste opportunities will not happen easily.The ball was delivered to Fran's feet very accurately. When Fran got the ball, Vidic had already rushed up, but Fran kicked the ball, and the ball was passed by. Rob Vidic passed behind and rushed to the restricted area! [

Carragher rushed out, but Fran didn't enter the penalty area. Just near the top of the arc of the penalty area, he suddenly adjusted his kick, and then kicked and shot!

"gooool!!!!!! Diego Forlan!!! No. 401 minute "excellent" goal!!!!"

Fran shouted and rushed to the sidelines. He said before the game that the goals scored in the game were dedicated to Manchester United.The Liverpool players' impression of him has always remained at the stage of a parallel importer who played for Manchester United, and they were not too strict with him. In the end, the Liverpool players swallowed the bitter fruit themselves.

The former Manchester United player won the European Golden Boot last season. Although it is great to share the Golden Boot with Henry, his honor is still ridiculous in the eyes of the English.After all, in the eyes of the British, his image has long been established: profane, parallel imports, overvalued, and not suitable for wealthy families.

In fact, Diego Forlan is indeed not a first-class striker, but it is not that bad.

If you only look at his highlights, you may think that this is the top striker in the world. His shooting skills are good and his ability is strong, especially in the middle and long distance shots, almost all of them are full of ornamental progress. It can be said that he is a striker who does not score non-tough goals.

However, he does have his problems: Leaving aside the much-talked-about shooting problem, his ability to grab points is really mediocre, and his ability to grasp opportunities is not very good.Playing in a team like Manchester United that requires collaboration, cooperation, and everyone to fulfill their responsibilities is indeed not what he is good at.

What he is good at is playing in small teams and in open leagues.At Manchester United, he couldn't play at the same level, but at Villarreal, the encounter between him and Riquelme can be said to make both of them shine: Forlan's lack of running ability, Riquelme The otherworldly pass made up for it.And his superb shooting skills also allowed Riquelme's pass to be converted into a goal.He and La Liga's style also complement each other, which allowed him to complete a gorgeous turn, from a parallel importer in the Premier League to a super striker who has attracted the attention of the whole of Europe in one fell swoop.

It was the right choice for him to choose to leave Manchester United. In La Liga, with the help of Pellegrini and Riquelme, he got a chance to be reborn.

In fact, he has always been grateful for Manchester United's release: in 2004, he voluntarily asked to leave, and after he left, Manchester United actually only had three forwards left, and they had the lowest record in history. It's okay to leave.

And now, he scored a goal against Liverpool. Although it is not a huge achievement, making Liverpool uncomfortable is a huge contribution to Manchester United fans.

When it was halftime, everyone who walked into the locker room was still a little angry and depressed: someone scored a goal at home, so, after arriving at the away game, they had to work hard again.The original plan was not achieved, and everyone was naturally angry and depressed.

"Blame me, I was careless, I thought we had controlled the rhythm." Alonso was a little distressed, "Joy saw it, I didn't see it, it was my fault."

"Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Besides, against such a player, making mistakes is not ashamed. Didn't I also react later? I still have little experience... What I think is, how should we deal with him?" Zhao Yaning said.

A fast pace is obviously not enough. Villarreal obviously made arrangements for this possible situation. Anyway, Riquelme will not participate in the counter-robbery. Liverpool unilaterally speeds up and cannot change his rhythm. Maybe I put too much pressure on myself, resulting in an empty backcourt, and was counterattacked by Villarreal. Although it was a fluke for Fran to score this goal, what if he was lucky enough to score another one?

"I think it's better to play a slow-paced game with them instead of fighting them at a fast pace... Maybe this is the right way to win."
