What is a destructive midfielder?

Dino trembled and said, "Boss, this must be a tactic you tailored for Li Kang. It is too concealed."

Old man Top coughed twice, his old face turned red, and he interrupted quickly: "Don't think about these messy things, let the boys slow down the pace!"

The young assistant nodded seriously and made a gesture of pressing down with both hands towards the Leverkusen players.

After a moment.

He called Li Kang and Kramer twice again, and raised his index and middle fingers.

On the other side.

Uncle Martin's long hair was messy in the wind.

He waved to Muto Yoshinori and Malle, and whispered:

"Don't worry, calm down!"

"We slow down the advancement speed in the 40-meter area and speed up in the 30-meter area! After penetrating Leverkusen's ribs, we will distribute the attack points to the wing!"

The game continued.

Mainz's advancement speed was not fast.

Under Malle's combing and connection.

The "passive" pressing of Leverkusen's frontcourt players did not have much effect.

"Coach Top should have considered the Champions League group match with Barcelona three days later, so he deliberately let the players conserve their energy."

"It's understandable, Leverkusen has a two-goal lead!"

"In La Liga, Barcelona easily defeated Malaga away from home, and most of the main players were rotated!"

"We are looking forward to Li Kang's return to Camp Nou!"

Mainz advanced to the 30-meter area.

Suddenly speeding up the passing rhythm!

Muto Yoshinori received Frey's pass.

Turned and knocked it to Clemens on the right.

A smooth action.

Let Kramer miss!

All Mainz frontcourt players started a crazy sprint.

Leverkusen's formation retreated steadily, without any signs of panic.

Clemens took a few steps with the ball and was intercepted by Borges!

No head-on collision!

Because Malle came from the middle!

Bang!

Clemens passed the ball decisively!

In Mainz's offensive system, Malle is the key core.

Six years ago, he won the U17 European Championship with Gotze and Ter Stegen.

Several highlights this season have made the Bundesliga media call him "the next De Bruyne".

He just took the ball.

He felt a strong sense of oppression!

He was about to cut the ball and turn around to shake off the opponent.

But his feet were empty!

The whole person seemed to hit a steel wall and was shocked.

"It's so unreasonable! It's pure physical crushing again!"

"Li Kang's interception was very timely and he easily completed the steal!"

"Malle fell to the ground, and the Mainz players began to complain! The referee ignored it!"

-

[It's not pure physical crushing. Li Kang's stealing time is very good. Looking back at the slow motion, you will know that the ball was intercepted at the moment when Malle cut the ball and turned around! 】

-

【Stealing seems simple, but it is actually very complicated. You have to predict the intention, change, and distance of the attacking player. 】

-

【And Li Kang's connecting action after stealing is very coherent! You can't tell that he is a 17-year-old player at all. 】

-

【We will know in three days. I want to see if he can stop Iniesta, Neymar, and Messi.】

After Li Kang controlled the ball.

From the God's perspective, there is not a good forward ball route.

The football left his left foot lightly.

Rolled to Havertz near the center circle.

Gatlinger relied on his physical advantage to squeeze the young Leverkusen genius away!

Havertz turned his back and picked up the oncoming football.

Another turn!

The body leaned to the left.

Gatlinger was deceived!

Havertz quickly passed by his right, raised his foot to stop the ball, and rushed to Mainz's half!

"Beautiful!"

"The sixteen-year-old Havertz once again used the change of rhythm to get rid of the opponent!"

"It makes people look forward to what he will achieve in the future!"

"Brandt ran to the middle again and took Bengtsson away! He is only 19 years old this year!"

"The age structure of Leverkusen's lineup this season is amazing!"

Bayer Arena.

Leverkusen fans cheered wildly.

They couldn't help but make a comparison in their hearts.

It was surprising enough that Havertz could get rid of Gatlinger.

But Malle, an excellent midfielder who has already proved himself in the Bundesliga, has a unique ability to get rid of the opponent in static state.

Why is he like paper in front of Li Kang?

Dino asked in confusion: "Boss, why? I really don't understand!"

Old man Top explained: "It's still vision and awareness. Before Mainz pressed into the 30-meter area, he roughly predicted the opponent's offensive line. La Masia really used to train him as a No. 4 position. As for the timing of close-range steals, it may be learned from the opponent's players in the game against Monchengladbach!"

Dino suddenly realized.

In the positional battle stage of the last round against Monchengladbach, Li Kang was indeed always stuck.

"Strange, who would train him as a No. 4 position? When Li joined Leverkusen, he exposed a lot of bad habits, and so did Kai!"

Havertz has a playing habit that accompanies his career.

In the process of high-speed dribbling.

He likes to bring the ball to the right side.

Fortunately, Brandt and he have a good understanding of each other, and always pull away the opposing full-back in advance, run to the middle, and make room for sprinting.

Uncle Martin has made arrangements.

He knew Havertz very well when he was coaching the youth team.

Frey quickly stopped Havertz.

Mainz's veteran talent is a little different.

To deal with this kind of player who is good at using his own rhythm to surpass others.

His eyes are on the ball!

Havertz's touch is slow and fast.

Snapped!

Frey made a move.

Just steal the football!

He can't guard against Brandt, who plays South American style, nor can he guard against Son Heung-min, who is Europeanized.

But a nondescript defensive midfielder is very suitable for dealing with a nondescript Havertz.

Football once again found its way into Leverkusen's half.

Marler is smarter this time!

He started to keep turning back and forth laterally, trying to get rid of Li Kang!

Boom!

The moment of catching the ball.

The figure swayed.

The feet are empty!

Marler was stunned.

Was intercepted by Li Kang again!

What's going on with this guy?

I obviously got into a good position to catch the ball!

Muto Yoshiki, who came over with support, immediately counterattacked on the spot!

Li Kang's movements are connected and extremely coherent.

Snap!

The football was passed near the center circle.

Muto Yoshiki, who had no time to brake, was pressed against the chest of Leverkusen No. 10. Suddenly, stars appeared in his eyes and he fell forward!

Li Kang subconsciously lifted his shorts.

This intensity of interception is very easy for him.

Marler, compared with the 27-year-old Cruyff in the "freeze" module, is far, far behind.

ESPN live room.

Park Ji-sung murmured: "Lee Kang, his marking ability is very similar to when I was young! I met Pirlo that year."

Hidetoshi Nakata frowned and immediately retorted:

"Back then, you just stuck to Pirlo like chewing gum. It was a tactic of extorting money."

"Marking and tackling are like the difference between Kabuki and Samurai Hime! Your interception prediction is much different from Li Sang's!"
