ball at foot

Chapter 76 The Fierce Gunslinger

Not long after the start of the game, Zhao Yaning found himself in an unprecedented battle.

Although it was a friendly match, Arsenal's defense was not very tight, but Zhao Yaning still found that the tacit defense formed by Vieira and Ashley Cole made him play very awkwardly.

The ball passed from the backcourt to Zhao Yaning’s feet. Zhao Yaning took the ball calmly, turned around, and faced Ashley Cole head-on.Because it was near the midfield line, Ashley Cole did not press too much, giving Zhao Yaning a lot of space to hold the ball, but even so, Zhao Yaning didn’t know what to do.

Cole and Vieira have stuck the two positions very well. It is difficult for Zhao Yaning to choose a line whether he is going to the bottom or cutting inside.Looking up at the frontcourt, Arsenal's defense line was pressed very far back, and Nongda didn't have many opportunities. Although Zhao Yaning had the opportunity to deal with it calmly, he didn't have much to do.

Kick the ball back to Zicos in the middle?This is a very good choice, but I always feel a little unreconciled.Anyway, it's a friendly match, why not try to break through? [

Taking the ball one step forward, Zhao Yaning raised his right leg and made a long pass to the frontcourt.Cole rushed over, Zhao Yaning took advantage of the situation to retract his legs, took the ball forward with the outside of his right foot, quickly dodged Cole, and got behind him.

It's been very clean.Zhao Yaning was still thinking when he caught up with the ball.And Vieira in the middle didn't come over, he just stood in the middle to prevent him from cutting inside.Although Cole was passed by, he immediately turned around and chased up from behind. Although there was still a step away from Zhao Yaning, as long as Zhao Yaning stopped to pass the ball, he could just catch up with Feng. Blocking.

This kind of defense is indeed unmatched by the lower leagues.

But this does not mean that Zhao Yaning has no choice.He slowed down a bit, bringing Cole closer.Then, he stopped suddenly with one step, and Cole immediately came to his side, sticking to his body, not giving him any chance to kick, but Zhao Yaning leaned on Cole with his left shoulder, and pulled the ball a step away with his right foot, and then, With the right foot retracted, using the right foot as the axis, the arch of the left foot quickly pulled the ball, completing a turn.

This is part of the small-scale dribble that Petit asked him to do after arriving in Monaco.

very nice.Although Cole saw his movements, this variant of the Marseilles roundabout did a good job, at least he couldn't grab the ball.But the moment Cole turned around, he suddenly hit him with force, causing Zhao Yaning's body to tilt. Although the movement was still completed, he didn't have the ability to continue to make the next breakthrough. Jiuli in the middle.

After receiving the ball, Giuly dodged Gilberto's press, and shot out roaringly.

The timing and location of the shot was not very good, and Seaman easily saved the ball over the baseline.

Zhao Yaning looked at Cole beside him, and Cole smiled at him, looking harmless.But the impact just now made Zhao Yaning feel a little uncomfortable-hitting someone while turning around on one foot can easily hurt people. Was this guy intentional, or is English football just so barbaric?

But Zhao Yaning also understood what the opponent was thinking in his heart: as an offensive full-back, no matter how strong his ability to go up and down, he is definitely not as stable as a defensive full-back.Therefore, Ashley Cole tried to use such a fierce action to scare Zhao Yaning, so that he did not dare to fight harder, so that his defense would be easier.

It's just that after experiencing the matchup with Carlos in the World Cup, Zhao Yaning no longer cares about his little tricks.

The state of the game has always been stalemate.Although Arsenal are stronger, but because Gilberto is a newcomer to the team after all, replacing Parlor, he and the team are not running in enough, so Arsenal are also looking for a running-in and have not shown their past human attack.

On the contrary, Monaco tried to attack repeatedly because of the home game, but the midfield defense of Vieira and Gilberto, and the sophisticated defense of Keown and Campbell made their offense not smooth.

And the ball quickly flowed to Zhao Yaning's feet again: Although Monaco has a long passer like Roten, Campbell's height and weight give him too much advantage in fighting for the header.Although Arsenal's middle lane lacks running-in, Giuly himself is not a player who is good at breakthroughs. What's more, facing Vieira and Gilberto, his intentions are always predicted very accurately by the opponent, and it is difficult to make a difference.In contrast, Zhao Yaning is in charge of the right side, which is relatively easy: the success rate of wing breakthroughs is inherently greater, and Cole seems to have put more thought on forward attacks during the game.

After taking the ball this time, Zhao Yaning no longer hesitated as before.He found that he didn't cooperate well with the team now, so he should do it alone according to his old habits.

Take the ball, accelerate, change direction.Zhao Yaning stepped away from Cole and ran forward.But Cole was not thrown off by him this time, but stuck to him immediately.Cole's way of pulling Zhao Yaning's jersey slowed down Zhao Yaning's speed, and Vieira met him with a shovel.

Faced with this style of play, Zhao Yaning could only jump up and avoid it in embarrassment.But this time, he also lost the ball under his feet. Cole got the ball easily and passed it out.But Zhao Yaning was knocked over by Vieira, the referee's whistle sounded, and Vieira fouled.

This action is not clean enough-although it is a frontal tackle, but this tackle is obviously aimed at the ankle.Although Zhao Yaning dodged in time, he was rubbed on his calf, which made Zhao Yaning look at Vieira angrily, but Vieira just gave him a cold look: He has always played like this, although his movements are not good. It was clean, but few were actually injured. When he played football, he was more intimidated by his fierce and domineering aura.Zhao Yaning was obviously intimidated by him just now.This wide open and close defensive action looks extremely dangerous, and offensive players always want to avoid it when they see it.But it was this fear of injury that changed the shape of the action, and naturally lost the ball.

"Boy, don't be afraid of him." Taking advantage of Zicos' foul, Jiuli who was not far away ran over, "He's just a second-rate midfielder, and he's a good-for-nothing who knows fouls." [

Jiuli's words made Vieira turn his head, but Jiuli's eyes widened without giving in. The two glared for a while, but Vieira stepped aside first: He had already frightened Zhao Yaning, and that was enough.An old ball like Jiuli is not so easily intimidated.After all, this is Monaco's home court, and Vieira will not get angry with Giuly for a few nonsense.

And what Giuly said is also a view that Ligue [-] has always had: Although Vieira is considered the best midfielder in the world, his defensive position is not top-notch, and most of the time he still relies on fierce pressing. Winning, this defensive strategy is the second-rate defensive midfielder's style of play under the Ligue [-]'s emphasis on positioning.

As for Vieira's excellent offensive power as a central midfielder, that's another matter.

"If he's making such a big move, let him fall." Jiuli quietly added, "That guy is a professional card player. If you pretend to be hurt, the referee will definitely give him a card."

Zhao Yaning was stunned for a moment, he didn’t expect that Jiuli just used his aura to regain face, which made Zhao Yaning feel a lot harder, so he gave him such a bad idea.Things like flopping and diving are not like things that old club players should hand over to new players.

Zhao Yaning just arrived in Monaco, but he didn’t want to impress Ligue [-] with a flop.After thinking about it, he still felt that he should play harder and be as afraid as Jiuli, instead of flopping.

When he got the ball again, without saying a word, he moved sideways with one step and killed towards the middle.

Cole quickly blocked his move to the middle and drove him to the middle.But after playing back and forth with Zhao Yaning, he also knew that Zhao Yaning’s explosive power is better than him, and he still left it to Vieira to grab the task.

Vieira also greeted him without hesitation. Although he didn't shovel directly, his movements were still very big. Relying on his height and size, he rushed directly to block Zhao Yaning's front and blocked Zhao Yaning's attack. Movement space is restricted to a minimum.

But Zhao Yaning pulled the ball under his feet, dodged a distance, and then kicked lightly, passing the ball under Vieira's crotch.

Being teased by someone wearing the crotch, Vieira reacted immediately.But this is what he can do, that is, turn his body, trying to get stuck in the most powerful breakthrough position, so that Zhao Yaning can catch up with the ball slower.But he still underestimated Zhao Yaning, Zhao Yaning stepped across, and then stepped on the ground with mana, and caught up with the ball almost instantly.

The cooperation is still not enough. If the cooperation is good, Gilberto can intercept the ball.

But now he is not allowed to think too much, catching up with Zhao Yaning is the most important thing.

Neither of the two defenders Arsen presses is a fast defender. In order to guard against Roundup, their defense line is also pulled back.This style of play gave Zhao Yaning a lot of room to break through. Although Gilberto was blocked in front of him, he still didn’t hesitate. Just behind Gilberto’s death, he flicked the ball horizontally and passed He looked at Jiuli who ran to meet him.

Of course, Jiuli didn't waste time, and just went straight with one foot, and completed a beautiful two-to-one cooperation.

Only Campbell and Keown were left in front of him... Campbell had already rushed out, and at the same time, Zhao Yaning saw that Nongda was also running beside Keown.Do you come by yourself or pass the ball?This question flashed through Zhao Yaning’s mind, and he still made a decision. He paused and passed the ball through with a through ball.

When Nongda received the ball, he had already dodged Keown and was very close to the goal. When he received the ball, he shot directly.

The deadlock-breaking goal was born.

+1-0

"Good job!"

Jiuli was the first to rush to hug Nongda, and Nongda ran a few steps. After completing the celebration, he also walked back to his teammates. He also came over to pat Zhao Yaning, "Good pass, very good." Yes, just play like this, we are no worse than them."

Zhao Yaning nodded, turned around, but saw Vieira and Gilberto with bad faces.Arsenal were pierced through the middle by Zhao Yaning. The conceded goal was their responsibility, and they would naturally not be very happy. [

"Listen, brother," at this time, Jiuli also came over.Hugging Zhao Yaning, "When you kick up for a while, you go to the center more, and I go to the side more. You can't deal with that England defender, and I can't deal with Patrick. Let's switch. Don't be too sticky, Patrick. It's hard to deal with seriously, if you can't, just pass it on to me, and I will take care of you by your side."

Zhao Yaning nodded, and he also understood what Jiuli meant: Although Jiuli’s running position is good, it is not very useful when encountering Arsenal’s double midfielder with a wide range of activities and strong interception ability.Although Zhao Yaning's breakthrough ability is strong, he also has an advantage when meeting Ashley Cole with top defensive ability.But if you exchange it from time to time, the effect can be greater: Giuly is a guy who is skilled in running positions. He can kill Ashley Cole's patience and physical strength when he goes to the wing. As a full-back, Ashley Cole also needs to take care Offensively, he will not be happy to run all over the field with Jiuli.And if Zhao Yaning is in the middle, he can rely on his skillful skills to play games with Vieira: Vieira’s defense is very fierce, but there are insufficient details, and Gilberto behind him does not cooperate enough with him Skillful, it is still possible to open a gap in him.

It's a pity that Zhao Yaning still doesn't know how to flop, nonsense and other very useful skills. Otherwise, with Vieira's temper, it is possible for him to get a small red card.

Jiuli remembered it in his heart, and he had to teach Zhao Yaning this lesson in the future, and then walked away.

Although Giuly made arrangements, Arsenal also quickly made adjustments.Arsenal's defense quickly moved forward by nearly ten meters. This time, the space in the midfield was reduced a lot, and Zhao Yaning's breakthrough could not be counted on immediately.

Then, the main attack can only be Roten's long pass.Keown is old, and Campbell is not a fast central defender. A long pass behind him is the most reasonable attack method.

After Giuly noticed this, he soon began to pay attention to feeding the ball to Rothen.And Rothen lived up to his expectations. After dodging the space once, he kicked the ball directly into the penalty area.

Roundup's chances are very good, he has a very accurate judgment on where the ball will fall, and he got to the position very quickly, but...

But Campbell was in front of him, and together with him, he jumped suddenly towards the sky.

Although Roundup occupies a favorable position, his height and weight are far inferior to Campbell's, and his jumping ability is also much worse.As soon as the two people came into contact in the air, Campbell knocked Nongda off balance, but Campbell himself was not affected at all, and continued to rise, jumping almost one meter higher than Nongda, easily throwing the ball Header to Keown.

Terrible air defense capability.Zhao Yaning was stunned by this fight for the top.No wonder Arsenal dared to press out, because they were sure that the press out blocked the space and could limit themselves, and Roten's long pass, Campbell's air defense alone was enough to block it.

This is the strength of a strong team. When they want to defend, sometimes they don't have to think about any tactical issues at all.Because they have excellent stars on the defensive line, even if there are any mistakes in their defensive tactics, relying on the personal abilities of the players, they can still save the situation.

Both sides were blocked. If there was any way to break the deadlock, it would naturally be a breakthrough in the middle.Roundup is fast, which is the weakness of Keown and Campbell.

However, although Giuly is excellent, Vieira's range of activities and stealing ability are even better.Jiuli's body is really too low. Although he can rely on his low center of gravity, fast speed and skills to get rid of disadvantages in confrontations with ordinary people, but when he encounters ridiculously strong physical fitness and defensive skills When Vieira was very good, he didn't have many methods.Vieira's focus on him disrupted his ball, coupled with Gilberto's cover block behind Vieira as a defensive midfielder, Giuly didn't have much room to play for a while.

More importantly, as Arsenal's lineup moved forward, their midfield control and pressure on Monaco were also reflected. Monaco's already fragile midfield defense became even more vulnerable after Arsenal launched an attack. is crumbling.

Soon, Arsenal's offense had an effect.

After Vieira steals Giuly, he distributes the ball to Ashley Cole on the wing.Cole jumped in immediately.Zhao Yaning also ran over, but Cole didn’t even give him a chance to put the phone down, so he kicked the ball to Pires in front of him.

Monaco right-back Givet next to Pires immediately stuck to Pires.He is tall and tall, and usually plays as a central defender. Even as a full-back, he is also a player with excellent defensive ability. Although Pires is very strong, it is still possible for Giver to delay him so that the back line can better defend against Arsenal. did it.

But after Pires got the ball, he almost didn't kick the ball. He just pretended half a circle and passed the ball diagonally to Henry in the middle.

As Arsenal's key target, as soon as Henry got the ball, Squillage and Rodriguez rushed over.But Henry just kicked the ball back lightly and passed it to Ashley Cole who rushed up behind him.After Cole received the ball, he passed the ball straight to Pires who had bypassed Givet's defense and ran out of position.

After receiving the ball, Pires took only one step, and then made a low pass and passed the ball back to Henry in the middle.

Henry received the ball near the penalty spot and hit the goal with one kick.The speed of the ball is very fast, and the ball is also very tricky. The ball went straight to the lower left corner, so that Roma had no chance to catch the ball.

1-1, Arsenal equalized the game.

This time, it was Arsenal's turn to celebrate.

And Zhao Yaning also stared blankly at Henry who was celebrating in front of him, not knowing what to say.

Beautiful coordination, perfect running positions, light passing and other game offenses are much better than the rampage he played by himself.

Coach Wenger is really good.

"Boy, don't be in a daze, it's just a tie."

Jiuli ran over. Although he was also a little embarrassed, when he spoke, he was still full of fighting spirit.

"It's just a ball. The cooperation between the three of them on the left is really strong, and it's not surprising to lose the ball." Jiuli patted Zhao Yaning, "The game is not over yet."

Zhao Yaning turned his head, but he still had lingering fears: He had never seen such an excellent cooperation before in the Brazilian team. Although their skills were better, they were a bit inferior in terms of skillful cooperation and tacit passing and cutting. one chip.

If it is a gap in ability, it can be made up by hard work, but how to make up for the gap in tactics?

Zhao Yaning involuntarily turned his attention to the coaching bench: This problem should be solved by Deschamps, right?

Now is the time to test him: Does the team coach who brought the team to the relegation zone last season really have a way to change the team's tactics?

Deschamps, who was standing on the sidelines, also frowned.

The strength gap between the two sides is really a bit big.

Vieira is now at his peak, and his role on both ends of the offense and defense is too terrifying.Pressing, intercepting, passing, attacking, shooting, he can hardly do anything in midfield.Although he sometimes fouls because of his frizzy personality and lack of calmness, and is also broken by breakthrough masters because of his insufficient defensive position, but even so, in the middle position, he is still the most irreplaceable part of Arsenal. Even the best player in this position in the world.

With him guarding in the middle, it is difficult for Monaco's two organization players to play a big role.And Zhao Yaning, who is good at cutting inside, is also limited in his performance.

If there is only one Vieira, I am not afraid.Ignoring the midfielder and passing directly to the frontcourt was originally one of his tactical ideas.But the problem is that the opponent still has an excellent air defense tower like Campbell. His existence makes Rothen's long pass less effective.

While his offensive method was successful, his defense was also challenged a lot.The personal abilities of Monaco's defensive players are not particularly outstanding. If they can be relied on, it is mainly because of the tacit cooperation developed together.But the problem is that three outstanding players, Ashley Cole, Pires, and Henry, use their excellent golf intelligence and cooperation to make Monaco's cooperation look pale. This kind of sharp attack from the left makes it difficult for Monaco to resist.

What makes Deschamps feel terrible is that this kind of Arsenal has not yet shown its full strength. Bergkamp has hardly exerted his strength since the start of the game, and Ljungberg on the other side has hardly exerted himself.

It is impossible to continue like this, and we must seek changes.

And just as he was thinking about it, the situation on the field changed again.After Jiuli distributed the ball to Zhao Yaning’s feet, Zhao Yaning flicked the ball with his right foot, made a fake move of stepping on a bicycle, and rushed directly from Ashley Cole’s right side.Cole quickly turned around and followed. He blocked Zhao Yaning’s inward cut line. Zhao Yaning could only rush all the way to the bottom line.But Ashley Cole blocked the ball out of the baseline with one kick.

Maybe this is a breakthrough.

Ashley Cole's offensive power is indeed excellent, his skills, and the excellent cooperation with Pires and Henry are indeed a sharp weapon for Arsenal's offense, but his defense, there is no problem with immortality.

He is a little keen on attacking, and the retreat is not very timely.Although his defensive ability is excellent, his mind is not on defense, and there are many problems in playing football.

If he finds a stricter Tie Shuai to coach, he should be able to improve a little bit.But now, he still has an opportunity to take advantage of his defensive carelessness.

But the question is, how to use it?
