A sliding tackle at the beginning, I am a star in Great Britain

Chapter 134 The first match against France! 4321 Christmas tree phase one!
2012. 6, 12

Donetsk Donbass Stadium

France vs England

Fans have already entered the stadium one after another, and the players are warming up.

The various TV stations in the media seat began to broadcast live, and Sky Sports sent Martin Taylor, the head commentator.

In addition to Alan Smith, he was partnered with Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger who was temporarily invited.

"Coach Wenger, can you analyze this game for us?"

The live broadcast started, and Alan Smith was the first to ask Wenger a question.

Martin Taylor rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.

What can the French say?
What else could he say but that France had won?
For Martin Taylor's dissatisfaction, Alan Smith completely ignored, just looked at Wenger with admiring eyes.

As an invincible Arsenal star, Alan Smith's admiration for Wenger goes without saying.

"France are unbeaten in 22 games in all competitions and 30 years unbeaten against England.

"I think it's very difficult for England to win today under the circumstances.

"Of course, England is not completely without opportunities. If Wang Shen can play well..."

Wenger began to elaborate on Barabara.

But apart from past data, he didn't say anything that made people shine.

This is not surprising.

The group stage has just begun.

Neither England nor France have played an official game yet.

How the performance of the two teams, no one can give a specific answer.

But judging from the strength on paper alone, France is slightly better than England.

Coupled with the results of the past battles between the two teams...

England has gone 30 years without a win.

As long as it is a neutral fan.

It is really difficult to give England the possibility of breaking the unbeaten record in this game.

"Let's take a look at the squad for France."

Martin Taylor doesn't want Wenger to go any further.

So when Wenger organized his speech, he interjected without hesitation.

"The French team chose a tactic that balances offense and defense, 4231:

"Forward: Benzema

"Midfield: Ribery, Nasri, Malouda
"The defensive midfielder: Diarra, Cabaye

"Defenders: Evra, Mexes, Rami, Debuchi
"Goalkeeper: Lloris

"Blanco didn't use the 41221 formation that was tried in the friendly.

"But it's no surprise, as England are 4321 out of the friendly.

"If Blanc used 41221, he would definitely not be able to take away the victory at Donetsk Donbas Stadium today.

"Capello used the 4321 Christmas tree without incident.

"Rooney got a two-match ban because of the red card, so our starting striker for Manchester United is Welbeck.

"Central midfielders: Ashley Young, Downing

"Midfield: Parker, Wang Shen, Gerrard
"Defenders: Ashley Cole, Terry, Ferdinand, Glenn Johnson

"Goalkeeper: Joe Hart

"We saw John Terry and Ferdinand together at the back.

"It seems that their conflict has been temporarily alleviated, thanks to Ferdinand's generosity..."

Martin Taylor is undoubtedly speaking in favor of Manchester United, and the reasons are well known.

On the court, Wang Shen is choosing sides with the French captain.

Loris at 188 stood in front of him like a giant, but Wang Shen had no fear in his heart.

He doesn't know much about the French team.

But if you want to come to the French team without Kanter, Pogba and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the lineup, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Lloris won the coin guessing. He chose the right to kick off, and Wang Shen chose the field.

"Di!"

The referee blows his whistle.

Benzema makes the first touch.

The French team did not press hastily, they carefully looked for a good opportunity.

But the 4321 lineup is like a turtle shell.

Layers of defense increased from the frontcourt, so that the French players could not find the attacking space at all.

England wasn't much better, though.

The three frontcourt players are completely unable to form a pressing in the frontcourt.

As long as the French team is willing, they can pass unlimited control in the backcourt.

then……

They really passed on the control!

In the first 3 minutes of the game, England did not touch the ball.

In the first 7 minutes of the game, the French team only kicked the football past the midfield twice.

The kick was extremely dull.

Not to mention the fans, even the commentator was silent.

And Wang Shen, who has never found any sense of participation, finally remembered this game.

Not because of the score, not because of the goals.

It was because of an old man who fell asleep watching from the audience.

He didn't stay up late to watch the game that day, and then got up the next day to browse the forum.

Good guy!
The forum is full of photos of the uncle.

The uncle slept like a Bashi.

Just short of snot bubbles.

"Oh!"

at last.

The football was played past half time by Ribery, who rushed back to the midfield to respond.

Ribery also yelled at the French defense after the big foot shot, as if he was very dissatisfied with their ball.

Wang Shen didn't have time to care about him, so he went straight to the football drop point.

It was Nasri who competed with him for the landing spot. This guy has good skills with his feet.

But what about the physique...

"Oh!"

The strength of 87 makes Wang Shen unscrupulous on the defensive end.

Going up is a confrontation. After resisting the opponent to one side, he easily took the football.

"Oh!"

After passing the ball back to Gerrard without hesitation, Wang Shen moved laterally and ran out of space.

Gerrard immediately knocked the ball back to Wang Shen.

Wang Shen resisted Nasri when he got close to his back, and flicked the ball non-stop on the outside of his left foot.

Johnson on the left took the ball and passed it to Gerrard before meeting Ribery.

Gerrard gave it to Wang Shen before Diarra robbed, and Wang Shen still played the ball with the outside of his left foot without stopping the ball.

"Oh!"

The football crossed an arc and hit the left rib of the opposite midfielder.

The rushing Ashley Young caught the football behind Cabaye, kicked it and then swept the ball to Downing on the right.

Tangning made some adjustments and took a long shot.

"Oh!"

Angles are good but power is lacking.

Lloris easily took the ball in his hands.

When he got the ball, he wanted to play a fast break, but when he raised his head...

watt?

The three midfielders are back in place again?
Reluctantly throwing the ball out, Welbeck tried to press but to no avail.

The ball began to sway in the French team's half again.

The fans and media who were a little excited just now became misfired in an instant.

This ball is played...

It's really steady!
The French team fell down a few times, and Cabaye dribbled the ball forward and tried to pass through.

Wang Shen easily knocked Nasri into the air again, and after grabbing the ball, he went straight to counterattack.

He passed the ball to Tangning's feet.

Downing dribbled the ball forward at high speed and passed the ball to Ashley Young after passing Diarra.

Both of them were extremely fast, and Wang Shen gave it a straight pass.

In such a short time, the ball has reached the front of the French team's penalty area.

The England fans who were bored just now became excited again in an instant.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

Facing the interception of the central defender at the front of the penalty area, Ashley Young and Tang Ning played a two-for-one cooperation.

Ashley Young headed into the box and volleyed straight from the penalty spot, but Meera shattered his effort with a sliding tackle.

"He shouldn't have shot, he should have given the ball to Welbeck who was widening for them..."

Martin Taylor complained on the live broadcast, while Wenger beside him wiped a cold sweat.

Good guy, is the counterattack so sharp?

Looking at Wang Shen who retreated to the midfielder again, Wenger began to worry about the French team.

The French coach Blanco on the sidelines also shouted at the French players after the football went out of bounds.

And use both hands to make a gesture of the defense shrinking towards the midfield.

Seeing this scene from a distance.

Capello pushed his glasses expressionlessly.

Blake, are you hooked so soon?

He thought so in his heart.
