[football] walk side by side

To solve such a situation, it is easy to say, but difficult to say.

From the beginning of the game to the present, Portugal's striker has not played their due strength under the pressure of Germany. They want to solve the problem of attacking the two wings after there is no space, or, more accurately, they want to liberate Christie. For Jarno, the midfielder must have an offensive combination that can cooperate with Cristiano tacitly.

It is not modest to say that in the current Portuguese national team, only Cyril can do this.

But the problem is that when Cyril sits in the backcourt, this position can not only prevent him from being restricted by Germany, allow him to better adjust the rhythm of the team, but also enhance Portugal's defensive ability. It can be said that although it is almost impossible to achieve Goals, but the effect on the entire team can be said to be comprehensive.

If Cyril is brought forward, it is equivalent to abandoning part of the defense, which will also have a big impact on Portugal, whose defense is already relatively fragile.

But if you don't take such a gamble, Portugal's striker will only appear non-threatening under the pressure of Germany. If this continues, it will be difficult for them to break Lehmann's goal, let alone win this game.

Cyril was a little worried, but more helpless.

Without Scolari's order, he certainly can't run to the front without authorization. What's more, as the core of Portugal's midfielder, once his position changes, it means that the entire team will undergo considerable changes .

The problem is that Scolari never prepared a backup tactic from beginning to end.

In other words, even if Scolari knew how to deal with the situation in front of him and brought Cyril to the front to support the front line, the Portuguese players had never trained this kind of tactics, and Scolari stood on the field. On the other hand, when it is impossible to explain the situation to the players in detail... Even if the team does what he wants, it will not have much effect.

Could it be that it can only be like this... until the end of the first half?

Cyril looked at the German players on the opposite side unwillingly, while quickly thinking about various possibilities that could be tried.

Portugal played so passively, largely because their tactics were suppressed by Germany. Simply put, Portugal's offensive routines had been thoroughly analyzed by Germany before the game.

In other words... If you want to score goals, you must use some unexpected methods for the opponent.

Is there anything I can do by myself?What made Germany feel unexpected, but also hard to guard against...

There are only 5 minutes left before the end of the first half.

Scolari looked set to leave the change at half-time - and that's fine, of course.Cyril thought quietly, there are only 5 minutes left in the first half, and this time is not suitable for substitutions, because after omitting the time for substitutions and familiarization delays, the time left for the new tactics to take effect is Running out.

Then... let's take a gamble.

He made a decision in his heart, and his spirit was more focused on the game itself.

In the 37th minute of the game, Ballack dribbled the ball all the way to the center line. In this position, he was sniped by Petit and Pepe. Backing away, keeping a certain distance from Ballack to slow down the German midfielder.Pettit defended Ballack closely, ready to tackle at any time.

Ballack didn't try to dribble forward again, he made a fake pass, but when Petit came to grab it, he crossed the side to meet Schweinsteiger himself.

The closest to Schweinsteiger is Cyril.

At this time, Ferreira and Carvalho were still in the backcourt, and Pepe and Petit couldn't catch up immediately because of Ballack's interference, which meant that he only had to face Cyril alone.Schweinsteiger did not dare to relax his vigilance because of this, and underestimated this thin-looking Portuguese midfielder-the opponent's defense and positioning awareness are outstanding, and his speed is also quite fast. It is impossible to rely on his speed to eat him raw.

As for the head-to-head confrontation...

Schweinsteiger recalled the moment when they collided with each other a few minutes ago, the dull pain that his body felt due to the huge momentum.

Should I lament that this guy is indeed from Chelsea?Although he doesn't use his body to defend very much, if the opponent's player insists on fighting him hard, that ruthless strength is definitely enough for the opponent to eat.

He thought to himself, the movements under his feet were also unambiguous, and he was not too happy to entangle with Cyril, the main reason was that it was unnecessary, as long as Portugal had this guy in the backcourt, they had to find loopholes in the defenders if they wanted to completely break the defense, but even It's Ferreira, and it's not like he makes mistakes every now and then.He doesn't have to break through Cyril, as long as he can affect the opponent's running position, tear people apart, and attract the attention of the defense, the result will be the same.

He ran inward with the ball for a certain distance, and after confirming that he had "pulled" Cyril out, he gently picked up the ball, intending to hit it back from the bottom.

However, at the same time he lifted his foot, Cyril poked the ball directly towards the sideline where there was no one.Schweinsteiger felt a little relieved. Although the attack failed, it did not leave any chance for Portugal anyway.

As soon as this idea came to his mind, Cyril, who had succeeded in stealing the ball, suddenly increased his speed and stopped the ball at his feet abruptly before the ball crossed the sideline. Before the German player could react, he followed closely Then it was a powerful long pass, the ball passed through the gap between several players, and went straight to the German frontcourt!

After finishing all this, Cyril did not maintain his original position as usual. He gave up and stayed in the midfield. As soon as the ball left his instep, he ran along the sidewalk towards the German penalty area.

Cyril didn't dribble at his feet, but obviously the German side had studied him in advance-before Cyril touched the ball again, Lahm followed him first, apparently in order to pass back to Siri again after the Portuguese player When Er, or Cyril chooses to temporarily join the offensive system in the frontcourt, he can hinder him in the first place.

But a defensive player is not enough.

Cyril thought to himself while raising his hand for the ball.

Gomez saw his signal, and it just so happened that he was stared at by Mertesacker and couldn't get away from shooting. He simply knocked back on the right side and sent the ball back to the center.

Seeing the ball flying towards the direction of the two, Ram hesitated, but still did not leave Cyril.

His speed is a bit slower than Cyril's. Even if he grabs the ball at full speed, he may not be able to get the ball before Cyril, and he may even lose Cyril. state.

Without Ram's interference, Cyril naturally took the ball easily. From the moment he caught the ball, he began to accelerate, trying to use the acceleration to directly shake off Ram. Friedrich saw that his teammates lacked stamina, and hurriedly moved from the center Come over, faintly block Cyril's forward position, and help defend Ram.

Until this time, Cyril still did not pass the ball.

He seemed to have made up his mind to shoot the goal by himself, and knocked the ball forward unexpectedly. The football passed through the distance between Friedrich's legs and rolled into the distance. Cyril took the opportunity to accelerate to the left and passed him without the ball. , and at the same time once again controlled the ball under his feet.

The ball is divided!

Because of Friedrich's delay at that moment, Ram also approached Cyril again at this time. Friedrich, who was passed by, did not give up, turned around and chased after him again. Cyril did not slow down and continued to lead The ball is extraordinary.

This time, instead of staying obediently in the middle, he suddenly cut across to the right, and met Metzelder on the right. The latter watched him approaching vigilantly while retreating slowly. He slowed down a little, trying to slow down his speed. Once Cyril's speed was forced to slow down, Friedrich and Ram, who had been left behind by him, were bound to catch up again.

At this moment, Cyril has already approached the German penalty area. At the same time, Portugal's defense also has many loopholes because of Cyril's forward penetration. That is to say, as long as Cyril is successfully intercepted by the German side, the center Ballack and others on the field can immediately counterattack fatally at any time.

Unsuccessful, they become benevolent.

Cyril slammed the brakes on the right side. His dribbling skills are very good, which is why the football is still firmly under his feet. Before Lahm and Friedrich caught up, he kept the ball under his feet. Pick up the ball directly!

Over the top pass!

It is different from the pick pass he used to cooperate with Cristiano in the past. If the pick pass they used to throw off the defender in the past focused on the frontcourt players and required the tacit cooperation of the two sides, then this pick pass is It belongs to a simple trajectory in the air, bypassing many obstacles from a high altitude, and flying straight to a fixed position to pass the ball!

"Slade passes the ball! A beautiful pick pass! I have to say that Slade always has a beautiful pick pass, whether it is used to pass the ball or to pass the ball, it is very practical... Oh oh oh oh! Ronaldo before Catch the ball! Metzelder couldn't react in time! Germany's defense was disrupted by Slade's breakthrough, Ronaldo didn't stop the ball and hit the goal directly!! This shot angle is very tricky, I don't know if Lehmann can... GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!! Cristiano Ronaldo!! The goal is scored!! Slade broke through the German defense and created a chance for Ronaldo! The angle is too tricky! Lehmann can't do anything! 2-1!! In the last 3 minutes of the first half, Portugal seized the opportunity to pull back!"

Lev's expression froze.

The commentator is still lamenting Ronaldo's goal, but the German coach's eyes have shifted to the Portuguese midfielder.

There has always been a saying in football: an excellent midfield commander is often the "head coach" of the team on the field.He thought he had paid enough attention to the core of the Portuguese midfielder, but until now he realized that he did not pay enough attention to this player!

Thinking of the deep meaning shown by the series of actions on the court just now, Loew only felt that his heart was full of inconceivable things at the moment.

This guy... actually found a solution to German tactics one step ahead of Scolari? !
