Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 342 The Mystery of the Cardinal Across Serie A

Vlahovic really didn't expect that he just ran a few steps ahead after kicking off, and now he is going back to kick off again.

Although the others were dissatisfied and silent, the veteran Di Maria was not used to Pogba. On the way back to his own half, he went to Pogba directly and asked him why he kept sticking to the ball for a long time, but he just didn't pass it out.

One of the two sides pressed so high, waiting for the midfielder to pass the ball. In this case, once the ball is lost in the middle and the opponent counterattacks, it is too late to return to the defense.

The Frenchman knew he was in the wrong, but after all, the ball was lost from his feet, and Rome's counterattack also started when he lost the ball.

But he is not prepared to admit his mistake, whether you are Di Maria or Di Lieba, how do you want to kick the wheel and let others take care of it?Immediately there was a strange smile on his mouth, and he waved his right hand a few times in response, ignoring Di Maria.

"Beep!" The female referee Maria Caputi whistled, Vlahovic kicked off, and Juventus reorganized the attack.

Although he was dissatisfied on the surface, Pogba did improve his style of play in the following time. When he is serious, he is still one of the best midfielders in the world.

This is why Allegri put Paredes, Facioli, Miretti and others with a more positive attitude towards the game on the bench and insisted on using the French.

In the 7th minute, Rabiot kicked the ball from the left rib and made a pass. Vlahovic just hit the ball in the fight with Gwadiol.

Although he didn't give full force, the ball still flew towards the goal in a strange arc. Patricio took two steps back and used the backhand, almost catching the ball on the goal line.

Mancini on the side immediately cleared the siege with a big foot, and the ball flew outside the penalty area. Christante and Pogba rushed up to grab the ball together.

Kristante touched the ball first, and Pogba's foot then stretched out, but after all, he was half a beat too late and missed the ball, but tripped Kristante.

The referee Maria Caputi immediately blew the whistle for a foul. Pogba turned his head and wanted to complain to the female referee. Unexpectedly, the fallen Christian immediately got up and threw the ball on the ground. Quick hair kicked forward.

Now even Vlahovic, who has not been talking much since joining the team, couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted at Pogba: "Look behind!"

When the Frenchman turned his head, Christante's fast free kick had already reached Chen Xiaoliang's feet.

Locatelli and Danilo, who was on the way back, immediately surrounded him, saying that they could not give Chen Xiaoliang room to start.

But this time Chen Xiaoliang did not choose to push the ball forward by himself. Instead, after receiving the ball with his back, he immediately turned around and took a look, and then played a long pass straight forward!
The essence of football is to safely send the ball as close as possible to the opponent's goal through the transfer of the ball, and then shoot to score.

Therefore, as long as the ball can be delivered forward accurately, he doesn't care whether he dribbles the ball forward or passes the ball forward.

At this time, in the middle of the front, Sesco had already run in front of the offside beautifully, leading Bremer by about two body distances, and Bremer and Gatti behind and left behind were chasing at full speed.

At the top of the penalty area, the ball fell, Cesko stretched his left foot forward, and very beautifully unloaded the ball from the person who has the most tacit understanding with him in the world, just like the one who has practiced countless times in extra training like that.

Then he took the ball and ran a few steps forward, shortened his stride and adjusted, ready to hit the goal!

But in these few steps, Bremer has already caught up from the right rear and raised his left hand!
Cesco knew that he could no longer adjust, and if he was slower, he would be completely overtaken by Bremer, so he pushed the ball to the left goal with his left foot!
Szczesny, who stood one step behind the small penalty area line, did not make any saves, but turned his head to look at the kicked ball.

And Bremmer cleverly pulled down Cesco's jersey at the moment before the shot, instead of pushing it out, so as to interfere with Cesco without letting him "dive" down. land.

In the stand area of ​​​​the Roma fans, many people have stood up and prepared to celebrate, but the ball just rolled out of the goal against the post.

Cesko himself smiled embarrassedly, shook his head, turned around and raised his hand to Chen Xiaoliang to express his apology.

Totti in the broadcast room first praised Cesco's progress over the past two seasons and his potential, but also pointed out that Cesco, who will be 20 years old in a month, is still very young , There are still many places that need to be improved and supplemented.

Both sides had a chance to almost score a goal, which further increased the enthusiasm of the fans on both sides, and the scolding and fighting against each other from a distance became louder and louder.

Fabio Capello, who once coached Juventus, focused on Chen Xiaoliang.

He believes that the Roma captain is becoming more and more comfortable and swaying in Italian football. In addition to the rapid improvement of personal abilities and more versatility, it is also related to the tactics, formations, and rhythm of each team.

In recent years, some German and Italian head coaches have begun to advocate the three central defenders. In Serie A, three central defenders have almost become the mainstream tactics, such as Allegri, Conte, Inzaghi Jr., Gasperini , All the famous coaches mainly use the three-back tactics, even the mid-lower teams Turin, Verona, Udinese, and Monza.

In the German department, there are Tuchel in the Chelsea period, Berlin United coach Fischer, who ranked third in the Bundesliga this season and has received a lot of attention, as well as former Bayern coach Nick Kovac and Nagelsmann. Central defenders are not a rare thing in their hands.

Dutch coach Van Gaal led the Netherlands to play three central defenders in the World Cup last year.

Among non-German coaches, including Mourinho and Guardiola, they will also use a three-back style in certain games.

In the first round of the Champions League match between Manchester City and Bayern, Guardiola once again made a habitual "reorganization" change. He came to attack with three central defenders 3-2-4-1 and defend with 4-4-1-1. A super pioneering work, Stones, who originally played as a central defender, was transformed into a "waist guard" by him. He mainly plays the defensive midfielder in offense. The formation of double central defenders solves the problem that the ribs are easily broken through in the three central defenders system.

This is different from those waist backs in the past, such as Yaya Toure, Mascherano, Ramos, Javier Martinez, etc. Those who were able to play as a midfielder in the last game , and can play a guard in the next game, while Stones repeatedly changed roles in two positions in one game.

但是卡佩罗特别指出，现在的三中卫体系与过往的3-5-2体系已经完全不同，传统3-5-2体系的巅峰就是2002年世界杯决赛，巴西和德国两队同时祭出了3-5-2阵型，也成了这个老牌阵型最后的辉煌与绝唱。

而淘汰他的，正是在欧洲流行了将近20年的4-2-3-1和以巅峰巴萨为样板的单后腰双边锋4-3-2-1。

Although most head coaches are still using the traditional four-back position, it is not unreasonable for the three center-backs to be used by the coaches of these popular teams.

First of all, in the defense, by adding a central defender to ensure coverage of the left, middle and right sides of the penalty area, at the same time, the full-backs were canceled and replaced by two wing-backs or full-backs, so that more people can press forward in the offense.

Secondly, take today's Juventus as an example, three central defenders, one midfielder, two central midfielders and two forwards, except for the two on the wing, the other eight players are all in the middle, which makes the strength in the middle appear very dense. A quick counterattack from the center can also easily split the side, and then pass back from the side, relying on the many hands in the center to grab points and hit the goal.

Finally, in terms of defense, the wing backs/wing midfielders can retreat to act as full-backs, forming an actual five-back. Layered.

But these are all aimed at Chen Xiaoliang's muzzle, which is also the reason why Mourinho moved him from the initial midfielder position to an absolutely free all-around midfielder.

Based on Chen Xiaoliang's abnormal interception ability and running coverage ability, the denser the center and the more balls go to the center, the higher his average steals, interceptions and successful top fights per game will be.

And once you go to the side to avoid Chen Xiaoliang's frontal defense, there are only those two wide players in the three-center back system, and all the burden of the side attack will fall on these two players, and the result will be that either one side of the center The avant-garde pulls the side to support, or the forward on one side pulls the side to support, but the three-centre-back system loses the advantage of dense center.

Furthermore, the greater the offensive task on the wing, the higher the possibility that the two wing backs/wing midfielders will not be able to come back. This gives Kvaratsheria and Dybala a lot of opportunities. Opportunities for two central defenders in one-to-one three central defenders.

There are only three central defenders left, and one needs to be pulled out. Instead, Cesko in the middle and Chen Xiaoliang in the backcourt have a lot of space to attack.

In addition to the wing, similar to the first goal that Juventus lost just now, in the case of Locatelli with a single midfielder, once the two attacking central midfielders lose the ball, or there is no time to return to the defense during the counterattack, the single midfielder It is impossible to take into account the rib positions on both sides in front of the penalty area at the same time.

In modern football, the ribs are almost the location where most attacks are initiated. They can split sides or bottom out, and can shoot through or cut inwards. Losing the protection of the ribs is equivalent to passing through the gate of the penalty area. Give it up to the other party.

However, Chen Xiaoliang has a very beautiful crossing ability in addition to the ability of the traditional midfielder. Once the ribs are exposed, it is equivalent to giving him infinite space to accurately deliver the ball to the penalty area.

This is also the reason why the 4-2-3-1 double midfielder formation can be so popular, because the two midfielders can defend the ribs on one side.

And if the opponent doesn't want to give Chen Xiaoliang space and double-teams him so that he can't attack directly, then what he has to do is to distribute it to the two wingers on both sides, and then watch Keva and Dybala use their skillful After dribbling into the penalty area, step forward to score or support teammates to score.

Finally, the three central defenders system has relatively high requirements for the comprehensive capabilities of the wingbacks and central midfielders. Not only is it required to be able to attack and defend, but also to have good awareness. There is enough physical strength to support this kind of running back and forth.

Meeting a central midfielder like Pogba who is better at walking after losing the ball is tantamount to hurting himself.

According to Capello's analysis, that is to say, the three central defenders system, which is popular in Serie A, just completely stepped on Chen Xiaoliang's refreshing point, and it also let the fans see that he can single out the wingbacks on the wing and Can pass or shoot from the ribs on both sides of the penalty area, and can even beat the scene where the single midfielder shoots near the top of the penalty area.

After listening to the analysis of the legendary marshal, the beauty host Di Rita Leotta admired it, and Totti also nodded in agreement. The two also said that this analysis will definitely be heard by Guardiola.

Capello showed a rare smile, telling the two that Guardiola's variant of the three central defenders may be a preview for Roma.

In the defense, after Stones retreated, the three central defenders were changed to four central defenders. The original left and right central defenders Akanji and Ake did not need to consider the problem of retreating. Withdrawal to restricted areas.

At the same time, the two central midfielders Rodri and Gundogan retreated to the midfielder position, which can cover the gap in the ribs. The midfielder in 4-4-1-1, whether it is Grealish, Mahrez or After Foden retreated, he could harass Chen Xiaoliang from behind and double-team him with two midfielders.

Harland, who is like a monster in the front, attracts the attention of the opponent, and is ready to change to a three-back system at any time after the offensive and defensive transition.

Capello: "For such an important game as the Champions League final, especially for Manchester City, which has longed for this award for many years, it is impossible to wait until the end of the FA Cup on June 6 to rehearse."

It's not that the previous head coaches have thought of a way, but whether it's Klopp arranging a special man to mark the whole time, Inzaghi transforming Damian into a side midfielder, or Pioli simply putting three midfielders, the effect is None of them are ideal, either they are unable to defend, or they defend the center and give up the side, or simply give up the offense completely, and only rely on the individual's personal ability to try.

This also shows Guardiola's ability to lead others in tactical design ability.

The beauty host Di Rita Leota asked Capello, how will Mourinho target it?

Capello smiled lightly: "After all, the enemy is in the clear and I am in the dark. It is Guardiola who is making defensive changes to Roma's offensive system. If I were Mourinho, I would not reveal my cards in advance."

Roma, who led by one goal on the field, played their most familiar defensive counterattack steadily, while compressing the attacking space of Di Maria, Rabiot and others, while luring Juventus to press and press, and then good Fight back.

However, although the No. [-] giant in the history of Serie A has fallen into a trough in recent years, it is by no means mediocre. As an experienced coach, Allegri dares to bet on Pogba in the starting list. There must be a basis for his judgment.

After the French midfielder almost conceded a second goal and was further criticized by his teammates, he was also forced to use ten successes to prove that he is still one of the best in Europe, at least in Serie A.

In the 38th minute of the first half, Kostic on the left received the ball and pushed forward. The triangle formed by Chen Xiaoliang, Wijnaldum and Christiane in the middle defended Di Maria who had no chance. Taking the initiative to pull to the left, Krstic passed the ball as he advanced into the offensive third.

Di Maria singled out Viña on the left. This is the South American battle between the Argentines and the Uruguayans.

After Di Maria approached Viña, he took a small step with his left foot and forcibly went to the bottom line to eat raw with speed.

Viña turned around quickly, and while hitting Di Maria with his left body, he stretched out his right foot to break the ball that was thrown out by him.

As a result, at the moment when Viña stretched out his foot to steal the ball, Di Maria swung the ball in with his left foot again. He stopped and changed direction, bypassed behind Binia, and dribbled the ball directly to the small penalty area!

A wonderful ecstasy can arouse warm cheers from fans in any football stadium, let alone a top player like Di Maria!
The diehard Juventus fans in the stands behind the Roma goal burst into applause immediately, and then raised their buttocks to look at Di Maria, who created Longtan.

Patricio seals the near corner, Di Maria closes in and sweeps the ball down the middle with his left foot!

Rabiot and Vlahovic, who were plugged in, hit the goal with double ghosts, one after the other fell to the ground to grab a shot!

The front point passed, and Vlahovic touched the ball at the back point, but his shovel hit the ball on the post and bounced back!

Wijnaldum, who received the ball in the penalty area, was about to push the ball behind him, first out of the penalty area, but before he could take off, another black man pressed on his head and hit him with his head like a dunk. ball!
Patricio made a side attack from the near post. Although he touched the ball with his fingertips, he failed to change the trajectory of the ball.

1 is better than 1!

Juventus equalized the score!
It turned out to be Pogba!

Juventus fans love and hate. What they hate is the careless and mindless conceding the ball just now. What they love is that the Frenchman ran to the sidelines after scoring a goal and made an arrogant celebration.

what to do?Do you still want to be angry?

Juventus fans chose to respond to Pogba's goal with cheers, and accepted Pogba's coins with applause.

The war criminal just now became a hero in an instant.

Totti was obviously a little disappointed: "The ball Wijnaldum didn't look behind him, and other people in the penalty area didn't give him enough protection."

Capello said: "Conceding goals is inevitable. Roma is indeed the best team in Italy at the moment, but in the history of football there is no team that can beat all opponents."

"Whether it's Arsenal, who won the league unbeaten, or Barcelona and Bayern, the six-time champions, they can't win all, and they will even lose in cups and the Champions League."

"What's more, the current Roma team is far from being strong enough to be compared with the above-mentioned teams."

In this way, the game, which scored goals at the beginning and seemed to have no suspense for Roma, returned to the starting line.

The road to the Triple Crown is by no means easy and within reach!
