The Young Lion

The first half of England's final World Cup group match against Nigeria ends.

1:0

An unsurprising score.

But looking at the statistics of the first half, it is surprising.

The England team has a comprehensive advantage in all statistics.

Ball possession, shooting, and passing are reasonable, but fouls and yellow cards are also dominant, which seems abnormal.

In the second half of the game, the whole world still saw that after England took the lead, they did not change their posture and surrounded their opponents in the midfield. From the looks of it, this has become a three-dimensional offensive and defensive system.

The brutality of England has provided great help to their offense, and this advantage is based on the enthusiasm of fighting, the tacit understanding of siege, and the transformation of physical fitness and offensive and defensive awareness.

If the audience watching this game didn't like England, they would have already yelled at the England team as hooligans and bastards, and turned to sympathize with Nigeria. The two fools fight with fists.

England really looks a bit messy, but in the eyes of many football coaches, England has really played the rough guy's ability to the extreme!

Hit Nigeria by surprise and make it dizzy.

Not to mention the aggrieved offense, if you don't pay attention, you will be blown out of the defense line, and you will be humiliated by a group of rough guys. It is a good opportunity, but they will end with an outrageous shot, and then continue to the next round of insults without looking back. …

It is undeniable that there are quite a few people, or fans, or coaches. Or well-known celebrities all over the world think that defensive actions only need to add excessive physical contact. Or covert little tricks. Dirty, ugly, and various derogatory terms will be used to describe a team.

But it is also undeniable that fans who like England, or neutral fans, fans who simply appreciate this game, the England team's rough and brutal defense played a hearty and violent aesthetic.

The opposition had just conceded a goal in England's ferocious pressing. The England team turned around and attacked non-stop. It was rough and rough, and there was no subtle coordination, but the victory was because of the extremely domineering momentum!

I will rob you fiercely, and immediately kill you after the robbing, and don't play tricks, everyone is aggressive and domineering!

Nigeria coach Onibinder stood motionless from the second half,

He is also indifferent to the team's passiveness on the scene and does not make any adjustments.

His adjustments wouldn't work, he knew it. Because he is about to dismiss get out of class, it is no news that the Nigerian Football Association is discussing coaching changes. After losing to Sweden in the second game, the team's morale was slackened, and it was time for the generals to part ways.

It's been a frustrating trip to the World Cup.

But at this moment, Onibinder is not discouraged, and his fate of leaving get out of class will not change in any way. Failure, after all, needs someone to bear the responsibility.

However, after seeing the England team today, Onibinder's football thinking seems to have opened a whole new door.

The center of world football is in Europe. The highest stage in the world is the contest between Europe and South America. Teams from other continents will be a secondary player to accompany the prince to study. If they are higher, they are just spoilers. This is the result of football background and strength. status quo.

African football is weak in all aspects, including infrastructure, football concepts, football talent base, and technical and tactical levels.

If the England team played against Nigeria today with the 4321 anti-counterattack tactics of the previous two games, Onibinder's mood would not fluctuate in any way.

People are strong, and they have nothing to say when they lose.

Just like the African team, even if they run into Spain's gorgeous offensive and are crushed, they will lose if they lose, and their skills are not as good as others. tactics.

But playing England today is different, completely different!

Not only is the team's strength on paper much closer, the England team's rough guys are only Joe Cole and Dyer, who feel like they stand out from the crowd, but it's not too obvious, and like Rooney, Smith , is completely rampant reckless butcher.

The extreme comparison of advantages and disadvantages that appeared on the scene at this time is that tactics played an important role.

And the root of it is nothing more than a group of rough guys with good physical fitness and then crazily rushing to fight with their opponents. They seem to be unscrupulous, but they hide their wisdom.

Onibinder was shocked. He not only respected the handsome young commander next door, but also admired him a little bit, because he suddenly thought that Europeans might not be able to pursue this tactic to the extreme, but Africans could!

Why can't the Europeans?

Because Europeans are arrogant, arrogant, and standing on the top of the world, their pursuit will be a pleasing and gorgeous offensive, not a group of street gangsters smashing opponents. Europeans not only want to conquer their opponents, but also kneel down Worship on the ground, showing its transcendent status.

Moreover, the quality of European talents also determines that it is impossible for them to pursue such a violent aesthetic football.

Like some talents, don't the head coach not use them? If it is used, let them do these dirty jobs, and they will be criticized by their opponents and cast aside by the fans. How many of those outstanding and pretentious geniuses are willing?

Even if it is the England team, if it is replaced with 11 main players, will Irving be like Alan Smith? Can McManaman knock down his opponent like Rooney and still berate his opponent for sympathy when he falls to the ground?

Let England's main force use such a tactic, I am afraid that the effect will not be as good as the 11 players on the field now.

The 11 English players on the field are like reckless, most of them are unknown, even if they are, they are not worth mentioning in the World Cup. At the same time, they must implement the arrangements of the head coach, and dare not violate the ambition of striving for the top position. With limited talents, he can only sweat more and grit his teeth to fight. Various factors are mixed together, so that the England team currently has 11 players on the field, but it is better to implement the head coach's tactical arrangements.

But the disadvantages are also obvious, rough, so they shot more than 20 times. Hitting the goal range. Less than 5 times. Goal, only 1.

Africans can develop this tactic better.

First of all, they are weak, and it is not difficult for their players to accept this concept. The weak cannot pursue magnificence.

Secondly, their physical advantages are needless to say, and they will not suffer from confrontation with Europe. The key is whether they have that awareness. Today's Nigeria is being beaten by the England team. If they can think that the opponent will do this, or they do it in a planned way, the effect may be better than that of the England team.

Onibinder, who was a teacher, began to reflect when his fate had come to a conclusion. He happened to experience the brand-new shock brought by England, which was ideological.

The consecutive losses to Argentina and Sweden made Onibinder realize that even though African teams can have some good international players, the overall technical and tactical level is too different from that of Europe and South America.

In the face of strong teams, almost all African teams are anti-reverse, but not everyone can use anti-reverse. England fought back and beat the Pampas Eagles to death. Nigeria fought counterattacks, but was still defeated by Argentina, not to mention being reversed by Sweden. To improve the strength of African teams, the technical and tactical level must be improved. Otherwise, they will not be able to compare with South America in terms of talent, nor can they be compared with Europe.” cunning.

Onibinder was agitated while watching the game. He did not complain for Nigeria. Victory or defeat is a common matter. There is no need to deny it. He wants to observe England's overall offensive and defensive system carefully, trying to figure out At its core, he even had the urge to go to the next door to ask Aldridge for advice.

Nigeria lost to England, and Onibinder lost to Aldridge, who is famous in Europe and leads the trend of European tactics. What can you not be reconciled to?

What's more, they didn't play in the strongest lineup today, and they played you so helpless, which made Onibinder even more convinced.

Aldridge used the first substitution quota in the 65th minute, replacing James and replacing Robinson with the third goalkeeper.

The group stage has not been finished yet. The 23 England players in this World Cup have all made their appearances. This makes England look more like a whole, a team. There is no doubt that Hall's approach , can make the team more united, whether it is success or failure, it will belong to the 23-member team.

When Millwall's attacking football overwhelmed an opponent to the max, it created a common pattern in the game: long balls from the opposition.

Today, with a group of rough men like tigers and wolves, the England team also played Nigeria to such an effect.

In the last 20 minutes, Nigeria retreated across the board to strengthen its defense. Instead of a midfielder, it simply made a long pass.

Terry and Campbell tried their best to protect the defense, but Hargreaves relaxed a little and went forward to attack.

England's soldiers did not pile up in the opponent's penalty area. On the contrary, they surrounded the perimeter with two layers. The attack relied on long-range firing, and then controlled the perimeter and continued to attack.

Their long-range shooting effect is not very good, but they can't ask for too much. Their own strength is limited. If they are the main players, they may be so big. , McManaman, all have long-range shots that are not weak, and Beckham can occasionally scare people to death.

The England team's sports battle overwhelmed the opponent's breath, and the offensive wave after wave was high, but there was no real threat. It was not until the 81st minute of the game that they passed a corner kick and created chaos in the Nigerian penalty area. It was not known who was in the crowd Kicked the ball into the goal, and then saw Lu Xiaopang rushing out of the crowd frantically, running towards the sidelines excitedly.

Lu Xiaopang ran fast, this was his first career goal!

The beginning of his career is absolutely legendary.

The first show is the World Cup, and the first show scored!

Therefore, Lu Xiaopang was ecstatic, and took off his jersey while running, but this kid may not have tried to take off his shirt to celebrate after scoring a goal before. After all, he used to play youth team games. Who would take off his clothes to celebrate in that kind of game? It's about the same as two hundred and five.

As a result, the audience, as well as the audience in front of the TV, saw a wonderful scene.

Lu Xiaopang took off his clothes while running, but turned his hands over his jersey and covered his head without pulling it off, probably because he was running too fast and his sight was blocked. Plop, he fell down and fell to the ground, the jersey still didn't take off , covered his head...

boom

The audience in the stands of Nagai Stadium in Osaka burst into laughter.

Aldridge covered his face and hands for the second time in this game, and couldn't bear to look directly at him.

He also laughed, but immediately thought of something, his expression changed again, a little angry.

The teammates rushing towards Rooney surrounded him and helped him take off his clothes. Rooney stood up and pushed his teammates away, and wanted to continue to complete the celebration, but the referee took out a yellow card for him. Then, another red card was drawn.

Rooney seemed to have been poured cold water, looked down at the jersey in his hand, he had a yellow card before.

Lowering his head and walking towards the sidelines, Rooney was depressed.

After all, there was still no majestic celebration.

He took off his jersey and made a fool of himself.

Now, a red card sent off...

Why are you so unlucky? (to be continued..) ()
