ball at foot

Riise passed the ball over with one kick, Zhao Yaning received the ball, and just took a step forward, Essien rushed over immediately.

Is it to grab the ball?Zhao Yaning kicked the ball behind him, but Essien did not hesitate, and collided with Zhao Yaning suddenly.Zhao Yaning was shaken by the bump, and the ball under his feet was also unstable at this time.Essien was hardly affected in any way, he immediately continued to press close to him, his force squeezed Zhao Yaning, and let the ball fall to his own feet.

Zhao Yaning spread his hand towards the referee. Such a fighting action was suspected to be a bit of a foul.But the referee just stretched out his hand to signal him to stand up - after all, it was a match between two Premier League teams. When the referee called the penalty, he also took into account the standards of the Premier League, and the scale was relaxed a lot.Although this kind of scrambling is suspected of fouling, in the Premier League, it is indeed possible not to call a penalty.

This made Zhao Yaning somewhat resentful, and after getting up, he entered the game again.

Chelsea is obviously very well prepared for this game.Throughout the game, Essien did not play any other major role, but was stalking Zhao Yaning.Zhao Yaning swayed and broke through several times on the wing, but failed to keep Essien away from him.During the game, Essien was like a hound with a keen sense of smell and full strength, following Zhao Yaning closely every step of the way, constantly interfering with every link of Zhao Yaning’s holding the ball, starting speed, and breaking through. [

This kind of defense made Zhao Yaning feel a little long-lost, but also a little excited.

It's been a long time, and no one has defended him like this.

In the past, he was always fighting against all kinds of outstanding defensive players.However, with the improvement of his strength, coupled with the aging of Makelele this season, Essien was forced to play as a defender in the last game. Against the midfield defenders too.

The current team, no matter which one it is, relies on an extremely excellent tactical system and relies on layers of strict blockades to fight against Zhao Yaning.Whether it is Real Madrid or Manchester United, they will no longer put the task of blocking Zhao Yaning on a certain person.And Chelsea chose a completely different style of play. They let Essien alone complete the defensive task and block Zhao Yaning.Although Ballack and Mikel will help from time to time, the most important defensive tasks are all done by Essien alone.

It's been a long time since I met a one-on-one defender with myself, and now I have met one, which makes Zhao Yaning a little excited.

When attacking again, Zhao Yaning got the ball and made a breakthrough forward.Essien's choice this time was even more violent. He rushed straight up, and when Zhao Yaning raised his head to find the target, he made a sharp tackle and kicked the football under his feet!

This surprised Zhao Yaning, but he was not surprised.He jumped back a step, and at the same time lightly picked the ball with his toes. In this way, he got rid of Essien's defense, but at this moment, Mikel also ran up, taking advantage of Zhao Yaning Poor ball control, another tackle directly, broke the ball!

With two people lying in front of him in a row, Zhao Yaning almost had no place to stay and stepped on them.He jumped, but couldn't stand himself, and fell to the ground.The three rolled into a ball, and the referee blew his whistle, which was regarded as Mikel's foul.Although Mikel was a little wronged, he still accepted the penalty.

"Your defense is really fierce." Zhao Yaning was also extremely surprised by such a double tackle.

Essien smiled and ran back by himself.Zhao Yaning knew very well that they were just giving him a warning through this action, but even so, the two tackled regardless of the cost, still surprised Zhao Yaning: They are different from the two teams in La Liga, they really value it. Defensive team.

They have enough confidence in their defense.Whether it is a strong body, defensive skills, mentality, or coordination, they are confident that there will be no problems.Such a team may put far less pressure on the defense than a La Liga team, but it is the most severe challenge for the attackers.

However, when there is a challenge, there is fun.

Liverpool still controlled the situation on the field, and Chelsea's mentality was very positive. They did not compete with Liverpool for control of the midfield. Instead, they shrank from the beginning and confronted Liverpool in the defensive third area.

They know very well that playing change of pace, playing midfield possession, they are no match for Liverpool.Compared to playing like that, it's better to just make up your mind and defend in the backcourt.

The biggest reason why Chelsea can go far in the cup this season is not because their strength can dominate the Quartet, but because their mentality has undergone enough changes.In the past two seasons, I thought I was the enemy of the world, and everyone felt that they were much weaker than them. In this season, I began to admit that I have flaws, and I started to face opponents with a more low-key attitude. I admitted my shortcomings, honestly Realistically play defensive counterattacks and maximize their advantages. Although Chelsea has not improved in strength, their mentality has changed and their level of seriousness is completely different. Now they have taken a big step towards the right path.

The ball was passed to Zhao Yaning’s feet again, and Essien rushed forward again. Zhao Yaning didn’t go head-to-head with him again, but watched him grab the ball at the moment, kicked the ball forward, and then followed along the sideline. go up.Essien immediately chased after him. He slammed into Zhao Yaning’s side and rear, causing Zhao Yaning to sway, but Zhao Yaning hadn’t fallen yet. Such an impact would only slow him down and not make him fall.Essien was chasing after Zhao Yaning. Zhao Yaning thought that at this time, he should speed up a step, and then tackle him with a tackle. Generally speaking, after he slows down, it is most common for defensive players practice.Therefore, Zhao Yaning chose, too, to take the ball one step towards the sideline, ready to find a way to get past Essien.

However, this time, Essien obviously did not choose to do so.After he made a collision, before Zhao Yaning could stabilize his foothold, there was another strong collision immediately!

This time, Zhao Yaning could no longer stand still. He was knocked to the ground by Essien and fell beyond the sideline.At this time, the referee also rushed over. This time, he still whistled for Essien's foul.

Essien stretched out his hand with a smile, Zhao Yaning took his hand and stood up, "It really hurts, Michael, don't do it too much, you are not defending at all, you are fouling." [

"Understand it, defending you requires a lot of fouls." Essien smiled, "Stop complaining like a woman, play football quickly."

Zhao Yaning glanced at him, thinking about the reason why he did this.

Essien certainly didn't intend to target himself and he had no grudge against him.Well, the biggest reason he did this was because of defensive considerations.

So what is his purpose?Zhao Yaning didn't know at this time, he still had to rely on further fights to predict Essien's thoughts.

However, it is really troublesome to fight this guy.

Zhao Yaning has grown strong enough now, and it can even be said that his strength is beyond imagination in the position of the midfielder.When encountering ordinary defensive players, he doesn't have to worry about too many body collisions at all. However, this is the general situation.

Meeting this guy Essien, that's another story.This guy is incredibly strong, and his strength is the best defender Zhao Yaning has ever encountered.Moreover, it’s nothing more than being strong. His speed is also fast enough to keep up with Zhao Yaning’s footsteps, and he can foul Zhao Yaning in time. I'm going to have a headache for breaking through with the ball.

Zhao Yaning ran back. This time, after he got the ball, he did not choose to "plug" it immediately, but passed it to Alonso in the backcourt, and gradually considered in the middle.Although Essien was by his side at this time, he just ran hard to intercept his passing line, instead of trying to stretch his feet to stop his passing.

He is guarding against his quick breakthrough, but he doesn't care about his controlled pass in the backcourt.This also made Zhao Yaning slightly frustrated. He wanted to rely on this kind of action to lure his opponent to grab him, but Essien was not fooled at all. Once controlled, we are dead squatting in the backcourt. When you dare to break through, we will attack again.If you don't enter, then everyone will be exhausted.

After a few passes, it was Alonso who stopped playing like this first.Although he didn't have a good solution, he still wanted to make some other attempts.

A long pass was sent from Alonso's feet and flew directly into Chelsea's penalty area.Although Chelsea's defense was pulled extremely far back, barely giving Milito any chance, Alonso still made this choice.Since Zhao Yaning's breakthrough was unsuccessful, he had to consider another way to attack.

However, this pass did not have any chance at all.Milito was squeezed by Terry and Carvalho with no chance at all. The ball fell into the penalty area. Terry didn't touch the ball, but squeezed Milito with his back and didn't let him go forward. , The ball was held by Petr Cech who was attacking.

An unsuccessful attack.But this attack made Zhao Yaning understand Essien's thoughts.There is a reason why he blocked his breakthrough but ignored Alonso's long pass.

He wants to rely on this kind of constant fouls and violations to make his breakthrough method work, so that he can increase his passes.

Soon, Zhao Yaning wanted to understand their thinking.

What Chelsea chose was a comprehensive contraction defense.Therefore, what they need to guard against most is Zhao Yaning's cutting ability.For a team that is fully shrunk near the penalty area, it is very important to defend the opponent's "insertion".

Therefore, their thinking, that is, no matter what, they cannot let Zhao Yaning get the ball. If Zhao Yaning gets the ball and cuts into the penalty area, then it will be their big trouble.In contrast, Zhao Yaning's pass is slightly less threatening. After all, Chelsea's defense is densely packed, and it is not easy to pass a ball that penetrates their defense.

It turns out that you all thought so.

So, let me see how to tear down your defense.
