The Young Lion

Thanks to Thief Death, Qingqing Little Wolf and Four Thousand Three Hundred Miles for their rewards!

--------------------------------------

The Three Lions have been growing steadily under Aldridge for the past year and a half. After the bloodbath of the German team in the away game, they have condensed the soul of the team, and Aldridge's status in the hearts of the players is also rising. It is a monument, a totem, and a leader full of vigilance.

Therefore, even though beating the Pampas Eagles in the first half was very enjoyable and the score was leading on the field, the players would exchange a few words excitedly when they left the field, but when they walked into the locker room and saw Aldridge with a calm face, they Immediately sounded the alarm, calmed down, threw away the lead in the first half, joy, and was replaced by prudence.

Aldridge did not remind the players to emphasize not to relax their spirits, he felt that it was impossible.

In the World Series in the past ten years, some teams will collapse due to coaches' mistakes in technical and tactical adjustments, and they will collapse by playing fewer games and leading more.

First of all, the importance of the World Cup itself will make players cherish every minute, and they will never have the idea of ​​distraction and slack. Secondly, the England team has no capital for arrogance.

They are not Millwall, not Millwall's group of players whose psychological impact and pleasure will not be particularly strong if they win another Champions League. They are voracious and will never take the initiative to relax.

If Aldridge overemphasizes this point, it may go too far and cause the players to become nervous.

As long as his on-the-spot command does not cause any trouble and Argentina has no luck against the sky, the game is firmly in the hands of the England team.

With a two-goal lead, Aldridge made adjustments for the second half.

Weaken counterattack input. Strengthen the defense and weaken the offensive point is the full-back, so in the counterattack. They rushed to the front line to create threats with only four players, ensuring a solid defense. At the same time, there are two players on the midfield line who take into account the defense, and the defense system is more stable.

Hearing the coach's arrangement, the players nodded their heads.

Going out to the sidelines in the second half, Aldridge discovered that Argentina had made a halftime substitution, and two substitutions at a time.

Argentina replaced captain Veron, replaced by Aimar, another adjustment was in the front line, the left forward Gonzalez was replaced by the little flea Lopez. It seems that Argentina has no change in the formation, just a match-up Substitution, Bielsa still pins his hopes on the individual performance of the players.

Aldridge didn't believe that Bielsa would only be a simple counter-substitution. If this is the case, it would be naive! The second half of the game officially began. The England team was the same as the first half, with a solid defense, and Argentina's offensive routines were nothing new.

However, when turning from offense to defense. Aldridge saw the key points of the opponent's adjustment.

The counter-substitution is because Bielsa still firmly believes that his 3313 offense is fine, and he couldn't play an offensive threat in the first half. It was Veron and Gonzalez who had problems playing and could not provide support to Batty.

Bielsa didn't move this framework, and wanted to limit England's offense. Obviously, Argentina's midfield in the first half was too empty, so when England counterattacked, the back line and the midfield line continued to go up. Partially focus on man-to-man, and Simeone goes up. It made it impossible for England to pass and cut in the midfield calmly in the offense.

Aldridge didn't make any adjustments either. Argentina's posture is not going to die until the Yellow River. Crazy, really crazy like a devil.

Do not attack. Would you rather die?

The England team weakened the backcourt investment in the counterattack. At the beginning of the second half, they did not adapt to the defensive pressure from the Argentine defense line. After all, the first half was too loose, and the second half suddenly tightened. It took an adaptation process.

Argentina's offense still hasn't improved much. Aimar is not much better than Veron. It's just that in a wave of counterattacks after Scholes was intercepted by Simeone after halftime, Aimar shook Bart and gave the ball Batty sent a wonderful pass, but Batty was forced by Ferdinand with his body, trying to pull the ball out of the angle, but was caught by Southgate at the right time and successfully intercepted.

After playing for 1 minute in the second half, the England team figured out Argentina's defensive strategy, and they began to explode their counterattack power again.

In the 6th minute, Lopez and Sorin played a two-for-one and then interspersed with a running position to rush inside. After receiving the ball, he flexibly changed his direction and rushed in front of Ferdinand. Bart, who returned to defense, destroyed the ball with a kick and stabbed it into the penalty area. , Southgate dragged back to control the ball, unhurriedly, Batty, who was just four meters away, immediately rushed up to counterattack, Southgate calmly passed the ball to the wing before Batty stretched his foot. Phil Neville at distance.

Lopez is not on the wing, Phil Neville is not blocked in front, Sorin goes to mark Beckham, Neville dribbles forward, when he comes to the halfway position, when Aimar comes to press, he passes the ball back To Butt, who passed a diagonal pass to Lampard on the left front half-time.

At this time, the Argentine defense blocked Scholes, relying on Simeone to press close to him, but Beckham rushed forward and left Sorin on the right, attracting Placente to move here, Mike Manaman was still in the frontcourt, but he did not pull the side, but pressed on the left side of the frontcourt, in front of Lampard, the Argentine defense line predicted that Lampard would pass the ball to McManaman, Then focus on marking McManaman, and their back line left the penalty area, about five meters outside the penalty area.

When Lampard had Zanetti next to him and Ortega behind him came to press at the same time, he suddenly cut the ball with a mid-range kick, the ball flew up, passed over Simeone's head, and went diagonally behind him. The area on the right side of the front field.

A red figure just ran from the middle area of ​​the front field to that side.

Owen!

Without the pressure behind Simeone, Irving unloaded the ball with the outside of his instep, led the ball and turned around and accelerated continuously. Samuel quickly came to block it, and Placente also gave up Beckham, but he seemed beyond his reach.

Originally, Samuel and Pochettino were mostly focused on McManaman. After Owen got the ball, he started at full speed, and Samuel blocked it horizontally. When Owen suddenly stopped in the dribbling process , he thought Owen would change direction and break through from his right, but. After a pause, Owen accelerated his breakthrough again according to the original route!

At this moment, the golden boy Owen's combination of man and ball is perfect, and his speed has reached the limit!

Irving, who was criticized by the media for wasting several opportunities in the last game against Sweden. The Owen who hit the goal post in this game as if he didn't bring his shooting boots to Japan, this moment. Under the attention of all the people, people can vaguely see the figure from four years ago.

The golden boy Owen has sharp eyes and moves like a rabbit.

Four years ago in France, an 18-year-old golden boy was born. He chased the wind, dribbled the ball, and hit the Pampas eagle hard!

Four years later. The year-old Owen is no longer chasing the wind, but setting off a storm!

It shouldn't, it shouldn't, Argentina shouldn't give him space to start. Simeone's top defense against Scholes gave Owen more space to run and hold the ball, allowing him to stop the ball and start. Soar to cool speed!

And that breakthrough space!

Isn't this the stage for Owen to become famous?

If the back line is in the penalty area, Samuel doesn't even have to step down, just block Irving's shooting angle. So what if Owen breaks through?

But now, at the moment of being broken through, Samuel immediately stepped down, turned around and tackled the ball away.

The golden boy Irving slammed the ball quickly, dodging Samuel's long legs with his legs and feet, and the rock fell to the ground, unable to stop Owen's progress.

passed!

The Argentine back line collapsed!

That chasing boy, who was faster and stronger than four years ago, single-handedly charged towards Argentina's goal!

The audience held their breath. The Argentine fans prayed in their hearts with desperate expressions, and the England fans already clenched their fists. Always ready to cheer for that fast figure, just like France four years ago.

This time in the World Cup. Owen was given more tasks, and he firmly carried out what Aldridge asked of him a year and a half ago: pass the ball.

It is precisely this kind of limited striker support that England's offense is not only fast, but also clean and neat, and there is no shortage of changes. Owen, it is not that there is no chance, it is not that if he can perform at a super level, he has already scored goals and will be the number one in the team scorer.

This game also hit the goalpost with a shot. Owen is not reconciled, how can he be reconciled?

England has brought three strikers, he is the most famous, he is the strongest, Ingra is the one who is at the forefront of the formation, and he is the only one who can make the whole of England have high hopes.

This time, he wanted to prove to everyone that Aldrich's trust in him was correct!

I am the number one striker in England, irreplaceable!

In the penalty area, the distance between Irving and Cavaleiro who abandoned the goal was less than 1 yard. The chasing boy did not hesitate, did not think otherwise, and volleyed neatly without giving Cavaleiro any chance to save the ball. , rolled into the goal against the inside of the far post.

The chasing boy continued to run, ran non-stop, opened his arms, looked up to the sky and laughed, in his happy and hearty smile, he couldn't see the surging ambition, and couldn't see the sharp edge that saw blood seal his throat...

3:! omg! 3:! Irving played his best trick. When he ran at full speed, no one in the world could catch him, no one! Argentina's defense completely collapsed, and they were wantonly destroyed and insulted by England! This is Great England, this is a cold and powerful England, this is an England capable of realizing dreams! We should not set goals for Hall, no, that is a vulgar humiliation, Hall and the Three Lions, will To pursue their dreams, which cannot be associated with any utilitarian value, it is extraordinary, it is dreamy, it is a magical journey that will be remembered in our lives, and seeing the performance of England today, we are called by the Three Lions Deeply impressed!

In the Sapporo Dome Stadium, the England fans in the stands were jumping up and down excitedly, and after the ecstasy, they all sang loudly, praising the greatness of England and their dreams!

The Argentine fans were numb and sad. The blue and white waves were like a pool of stagnant water at the moment, allowing the red flames to dance wantonly above the fire dragon.

Half flame, half sea water.

The raging flames are burning above the sky, burning passion and reason, and at the same time evaporating the surging waves below, making them calm, silent, and cold...

The Pampas eagle soars proudly in the sky, free, romantic, and unrestrained, as if the sky is high and the sea is wide for it to conquer!

The male lion from Europe is well versed in the law of the jungle. He is cold, patient and wise.

The male lion ruthlessly tore the eagle's wings one by one, causing it to fall to the mortal world, making it difficult for it to fly again. The male lion showed its sharp teeth and bit the eagle fiercely. The blood dripped from between the teeth. The cries of the eagle fell on deaf ears...

3:

Aldridge, who stood motionless on the sidelines for nearly an hour in the first and second halves, suddenly felt a little tired.

He squatted down, very much like Bielsa before.

And he turned his head, slightly looking up at Bielsa who was full of sluggishness at the moment.

Madman, do you still dare to attack? ()
