Chapter 207 Rogers' Stone and Ji Dong's Hammer
Chapter 206 Rogers' Stone and Ji Dong's Hammer

Back in the locker room, Ji Dong and the other starting players listened to Moyes' final tactics while eating some snacks.

"Gentlemen, that's about all I can do. I rarely give motivating players before games, and I'm not really good at it.

But I still want to say that you are the best team I have led over the years. You have a sharp attack and a tough defense. The luckiest thing is that you are all healthy this season. Of course, this may be thanks to your opponent Liverpool today. "

What Moyes said made everyone laugh. Yes, without Liverpool, it is difficult for them to stay healthy in the most difficult time. This season, Everton has only a very few players affected by major injuries, and the others are only minor injuries.

"You've doubled Liverpool this season, so why not make it bigger?

Go ahead and kill the high-flying Liverpool and show 'em who's daddy. "

"We are the fathers!"

The Everton player got up and said.

"Then go beat them, step on their dead bodies to become champions, get your first championship in 17 years, give it to Mr Sanji, Mr Jim, Mr David, every Everton fan, and yourselves.

Go gentlemen, go fight! "

Although the speech Moyes said was a bit crappy, it has to be said that the effect was actually good. At least Ji Dong had a feeling of "the red star follows me to fight" at the moment.

Phil Neville shouted to the crowd, "Let's go guys!"

The players came out in a single file. When Lin Yi walked out of the locker room, he saw the Liverpool players also coming out. Behind Gerrard, they lined up one by one. Everyone's desire to fight was like a burning flame.

Although they are in the same city, although they are all acquaintances, and some of them have fought hand in hand with the national team, no one greets anyone at the moment. When they meet each other, their eyes are full of hostility and contempt. The war has already begun in this player channel.

"BBC here, welcome to today's program. The upcoming match is the 2011-2012 FA Cup Final. This is Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. I am your old friend Gary Lineker."

"I'm Albert Daly. I'm at the stadium right now. The atmosphere on the field is really great. It's a pity that you didn't come to the stadium to watch the game. But don't worry, we will try our best to convey the passion of the scene to you in front of the TV."

"Yes, I believe this is a wonderful final, let us look forward to it together. First of all, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides in this game.

Let’s take a look at Everton’s away game first. Today, Moyes is using the 442 that has remained unchanged for thousands of years. Goalkeeper Howard, captain Neville on the left, Jagielka and Boya’s partner in the middle, and Tony Hibbert on the right; in midfield, Dutchman Drenthe on the left, Heitinga’s partner Lin Yi in the center, and Rodwell on the right; Jelavic’s partner Cahill is on the right.Daly, what do you think of Everton's employment today? "

"Moyes' employment today is actually mostly expected. There are several changes. One is the central defender Boya. This player has outstanding characteristics and has been in a very good state recently. There is no problem in the starting lineup. I can only say that Everton has performed well in the central defender position this season, especially Jagielka. He has been selected for Capello's national team three times this year. It shows his status. We expect him to be selected for the final list of the European Cup.

Another surprise is the midfield. Moyes did not send Fellaini, nor did Donovan assist Lin Yi. He used Heitinga. I guess Everton’s midfield position today should be a diamond-shaped position. Heitinga is the main defense, and Lin Yi is the main offensive. "

"Well, like my thoughts, Heitinga's role today must be as a scavenger. In this way, Ji Dong's task today will be very heavy."

"That's right, but I have the same confidence as Moyes. This young man can always surprise people. Otherwise, how could he bring me consecutive betting victories, hahahaha."

"..."

"Don't tease you, Gary, let's take a look at Liverpool's starting lineup. Rodgers has a 352 attacking lineup today. Goalkeeper Reina, Kelly and Skrtel line up on the left and right, and Carragher guards the center. Liverpool has a heavy presence in the midfield. Downing on the left, Johnson on the right, and Charlie Adam in the center.

Generally speaking, there are no surprises in Rodgers' lineup. Of course, this is related to their lack of signings in the winter window, and they also let go of the Uruguay striker. The main problem of Liverpool this season is the front line. Andy Carroll has completely lost trust. This time, because it is the final, Rodgers reluctantly listed him as a substitute player. "

"Yeah, Liverpool's front line has been terrible this season, they are fourth-worst of the 20 teams in the Premier League in terms of goals scored from the front line, which is unacceptable for a big team.

However, Liverpool's midfield in this game is very interesting. It is also a diamond-shaped position, and there is an extra connection point Gerrard between them.This is a very attacking lineup, but at the same time it does not affect Liverpool's defense. Johnson on the right can drop back to play right back, and Charlie Adam is not far from the back.It has to be said that Rodgers has been more successful in transforming the team than Dalglish. "

"Well, that's right, the midfielders of both sides are bright spots today, so who can be better? Let's wait and see!"

"Albert, this is not your style. Don't you support Ji Dong and Everton no matter what?"

"Yes, I have this idea, but it's meaningless for me to support it alone. How about you support Liverpool?"

"Okay! You can't fall into a river twice, let alone the third time. I don't believe Everton can kill Liverpool three times this season, and Manchester United can't do it."

"Beautiful, what I want is your words, so it's such a happy decision, what are we betting this time? The car you washed for me last time was really clean, and Mateus's profile picture has also attracted countless fans of you, hahahaha."

"Oh, come on Albert, I won't let you succeed again. How about this, if you lose, how about you continue to eat durians, I don't believe you will always be lucky!"

"No problem, but if I win, I want you to officiate a football game, how about you referee."

"sorry, I dont understand!"

"Lin invited me to China to participate in a celebrity football charity match in the summer. He wanted you to be the referee, but he didn't know you very well, so he asked me to win a bet with you. If you lose, you can obediently referee the game. How about it? Are you interested?"

"Of course, for charity, I am willing to go to China, of course the premise is that you can beat me."

Lineker understands this bet. This is a chance for a good partner to give him a chance, a chance to go to China to show his face and build a good relationship. It is also a chance to build a good relationship with the popular fried chicken Lin Yi. Lin Yi is destined to become a superstar in the Premier League.

Lineker has already decided that no matter whether he wins or loses the bet, he will accept Ji Dong's invitation, but why is it not a player but a referee?
Before the game started, the fans got an important news. Lin Yi will hold a celebrity football charity match in the summer. With his current fame, he will be able to invite many big-name friends. Daly is one of them. Who else?when?Damn, why put it in BJ?

……

It may be that the penalties received by the two sides in the first half of the season were too horrible and severe. In this final, the two sides did not have a verbal war beforehand. This is very unscientific. Everyone seems to be waiting, waiting for the hot atmosphere of the derby.

However, the peace and friendship at the handshake ceremony once again disappointed everyone. On the screen, Lin Yi smiled and shook hands with Kelly, Skrtel, Charlie Adam, and every Liverpool player, and kept smiling all the time.

It seems, as if, probably, maybe the guy who beat up a lot of Liverpool players in the first half of the season didn't come today.

"Liverpool's kick-off, the game is about to start.

The referee is looking at his watch and the game begins.

Louie passes the ball to Bellamy, Bellamy passes back to midfield..."

At the start of the game, Everton's two forwards rushed forward to make the first wave of steal attempts, and the midfield and rear also began to stand ready. Everyone stood firm and waited for Liverpool's first wave of attacks.

However, unlike what everyone thought, Liverpool did not aggressively attack. They actually turned their backs. Gerrard didn't even move forward. He was at the core node of the team's offense and defense, and his position represented the team's rhythm.

What is Liverpool going to do?Why not attack with an attack lineup?

Seeing the Liverpool midfielder playing with the two strikers of Everton together with the retreating Dirk, Lin Yi was puzzled.

There is a conspiracy!
One minute passed, and Liverpool seemed to have no intention of advancing. Everton was also at a loss by the sudden start, and all the pre-match analysis was wrong.

Looking at Rodgers on the bench with his legs crossed, and Moyes who was contemplating, as the commander of Everton on the field, Ji Dong knew that he could not wait any longer. If this continues, the dominance on the field will be completely controlled by Liverpool, and the subsequent games will be very troublesome.

The mountain is not just me, I will go to the mountain.If you don't attack, then we will use the high position in the frontcourt to press down. As long as the rhythm and range are well grasped, physical fitness is not a problem.

Since he couldn't figure out what Liverpool would do, then Ji Dong insisted on the tactics that Everton had formulated before.To respond to all changes with the same, Ji Dong wants this initiative.

"Lin moved forward. He led the Everton players to press forward collectively. Now the back line has also overwhelmed half of the position in the half of the field..."

So far in the game, Everton has not touched the ball, so go for it, whoever controls the ball will grab it.

Everton's grabbing the ball is not a simple one-person grabbing, but double or even multiple people grabbing the ball, and the rest of the team is also responsible for cutting off the short pass of Liverpool's ball holder. They are not afraid of Liverpool's long pass, because the time the football is in the air is enough for the Everton players to reposition.

Although this kind of high-pressure press has a high success rate, it is also very risky. If the opponent continues to pass short passes successfully, it can easily tear apart Everton's midfield defense.

But Everton is lucky. They have Ji Dong. His defensive coverage is really large, and his running positions can always appear in the right place at the right time.

In the 3rd minute, Jelavic and Rodwell jointly snatched the football from Lucas' feet, which was Everton's first touch of the ball.At the moment when the football was snatched by Everton players, Charlie Adam, the Liverpool midfielder decisively gave up his position, and ran towards Ji Dong.

Close-up man-marking, Charlie Adam began to show his biggest task of the game at this time, don't worry about anything, just stare at Ji Dong, pester him, don't let him take the ball comfortably, break if he can break, grab if he can, foul if he can't do anything, get a card if he can't, change and continue to stare at Ji Dong if he can't stand it.

It seems that it was true that Liverpool was going to defend Lin Yi close to the news before, but I didn't expect that Liverpool would still implement this tactic thoroughly even after the news was revealed.

Originally, Liverpool was afraid that Fellaini and Donovan would accept Liverpool's midfielder after Lin Yi's death, but when they saw that the opponent's starting midfielder was only partnered with Lin Yi by the rough guy Heitinga, the Liverpool people felt that this was already half the battle.

Everton's offense, Liverpool retreated from all fronts except for the forwards, they launched a counter-attack on the spot, Rodwell passed the ball under the cover of Jelavic, his team returned to find the back line, Boya made a transition to Neville, and the football returned from the left to the hands of Heitinga in the middle.

Without a good chance, Everton lost the first chance to advance quickly when the football was passed back from Rodwell.

It's been 4 minutes, and Ji Dong hasn't touched a football yet, which is not normal.

Football came to Everton's half, and Ji Dong's running position without the ball was always followed by a small tail. Charlie Adam's close defense is not just talking, he really is almost close to Ji Dong.

The best way to get rid of the close defense is to speed up, but in this game, Liverpool has a heavy army in the middle, and it is a bit difficult to get up to speed, but if Lin Yi moves to the wing, then only Rodwell can change positions with him. Although Drenthe has excellent skills, his overall view is not as good as Rodwell.

It's not that Ji Dong doesn't trust Rodwell, but to be honest, Jiong really doesn't think he's more capable than Gerrard. If Rodwell were to take over the command, it would be absolutely difficult for Everton to control the midfield, let alone one less player in the midfield.

Until this time, Ji Dong finally understood Rogers' plan.He just wants to use the two advantages of having a large number of midfielders and the overall quality of the players being better than Everton. At the same time, combined with man-marking tactics, he wants to drag down Everton's midfielders. He wants the midfielders of both sides to run continuously.

You must know that in the last round of the league, he let the members of this lineup collectively rest, and many of the Everton team still played in the last round of the league. In terms of physical fitness, Rogers is more confident.

Overlord, this is Rogers' overlord.Moyes will definitely use 442, Ji Dong must be Everton's commander, and Everton will definitely steal the ball. Based on these, Rodgers set up a game for Everton, a game that Everton had to drill.

How to break the situation?

Moyes is still thinking.Substitution to adjust the midfield?No, it's too early, it's only been 8 minutes.

The players on the Everton field began to be a little impatient.If the opponents don't take the initiative to advance, they will consume them in the midfield.Charlie Adam's physical fitness is very good now. He is staring at Ji Dong closely like a wild dog. This allowed Lin Yi to take the ball only 3 times during this period. One of the forward passes was destroyed, and the other two were forced to cross. Everton has no one to organize in the middle.

What about Lin Yi?He is thinking about a question!
How do people usually solve problems?Generally speaking, people will use their best or strongest side to solve problems.

For example, if a person has a hammer, he will give it a hammer when he encounters a stone, a hammer when he encounters a shield, and he will still swing the hammer when he encounters a dragon.Because in this person's opinion, smashing with a hammer is the easiest and most effective way.

Ji Dong also has a hammer, and more than one hammer!
Since Liverpool's tactic is to let Charlie Adam destroy himself regardless of his physical fitness and fouls, he can be replaced when he gets tired or gets a card.From Ji Dong's point of view, this Charlie Adam was the stone that Rogers threw on his own path, specially used to stumbling him.

Then the solution to the problem is simple, just smash the rock with a hammer!
