What ball king, call me ball god

Chapter 172 Extreme confrontation, you come and go, nervous enough to suffocate

"Zhan Jun, Lin Kedi's header is so beautiful, look at the replay, how high he jumped!"

"Yeah, Langley's height is 1 meters, and Linkley jumped so high that he took the first step to hit the ball! At this time, there is only a central defender like Langley in Barcelona's penalty area. Isn't this giving Does Link have a chance?"

"Barcelona's defense has a big problem. Pique didn't recover in time, including Alba on the left, and he didn't receive the protection of the central defender in the penalty area, let alone Ter Stegen. The ball went straight. That's it, if you insist on passing it to Roberto, who has offensive players around him, isn't this digging a hole for Roberto?"

"However, there is still a long time left for Barcelona. After all, it is only 2 minutes after the opening." Zhan Jun added calmly.

The Ajax players celebrated wildly in the corner flag area, and the fans of the visiting team at Camp Nou also celebrated wildly. After a brief silence, the fans of the home team immediately booed wildly. Just boo the Ajax players, who are you booing?It must be Boo Lin Kedi!
At the same time, Valverde on the sidelines was neither angry nor annoyed. He stood in the coach's command area, biting his nails, with a serious expression.

He didn't expect Barcelona to be blitzed by Ajax at all.

In fact, when studying Ajax before the game, blitzkrieg was brought up as an important label in Ajax's offensive tactics, but Valverde didn't think this kind of blitzkrieg would appear in the game against Barcelona. And said such a thing.

"Blitz? No, no, no. We are not a team like Real Madrid who can do without offense and defense, nor a team like Juventus with no midfield organization. We not only have top-level offense, but also Top level organisation, the ball will be at our feet, they won't be able to start a blitz, I'm sure!"

But now it seems that the rhetoric in the coaching staff meeting before the game has been slapped in the face, but for Valverde, fortunately, these words were not said when facing the media, otherwise - Valverde would not Imagine what it was like.

At this point, on the court, the game has restarted.

Barcelona's second kick-off of the first half.

Suarez stood in the middle circle for the second time, this time after the whistle sounded, Suarez still handed the ball to Busquez.

However, Busquez did not continue to take the ball or pass back, but the moment he received the ball, he directly passed the ball with the arch of his left foot and gave it to Roberto who was on the right.

Immediately split sides, and Tadic in front of Roberto immediately approached Roberto.

Roberto is a typical green leaf player, a jack-of-all-trades player. As a full-back, his defensive ability is average, and his single-defense ability is not good, but his strengths are predictive protection and clearance. , his counter-attack push is okay.

Especially he plays right back on the right side, so the small-scale cooperation between him and Messi is actually very good. His cross-running and response are quite good. It feels a bit like a simplified version of Alves, Alves Sri Lanka SE version.

So when facing Roberto like this, Ten Hag also made it clear in the tactical meeting before the game.

"If he has the ball, don't let him take it to a place where he can cooperate with Messi, and destroy it before that!"

Tadic kept the coach's words in mind, and when Roberto first started to speed up, he immediately got close to Roberto to prevent him from continuing to accelerate, forcing him to be unable to go outside.

In this way, Roberto can only give the ball to Rakitic in the middle.

Rakitic had a very wide range of running and a pass at his peak, but now he is in a period of decline, and his level is no longer as brave as it used to be.

Rakitic moved two steps to the right to get the ball, and then he was ready to dribble forward. This was one of his skills before, but this skill point is not very good now.

As soon as he took two steps forward, Shener rushed up, looking aggressive, and looked like he was about to rush over with a sliding tackle to steal the ball.

Just to be on the safe side, in order not to lose the ball, Rakitic decisively passed the ball to Messi who received the rib area at this time.

I still have to say that although Messi is declining now, as long as he has the ball, he must be a threat.

At this time, Messi's compatriot Tagliafico was defending.

Tagliafico is still a bit difficult to defend against Messi alone. Although Messi is walking, the sudden acceleration is indeed the world's top level. Tagliafico can't stop him, so he can only try to block it route.

And Messi took two steps forward, and then went to the middle.

Indeed, in the past few years, Messi has not been completely determined to play on the right side. He is more like a midfielder, a free man in the frontcourt. He can take the ball in any position in the frontcourt. Just like now, he has brought The ball arrives behind the central striker.

When Tagliafico saw that Messi was far away from his defense zone, he followed for a while, and then when he saw Schone back to follow up, he returned to the defensive position on the side.

Then there is the defensive part of Schone and De Jong against Messi in the middle.

Messi took the ball to the center by himself, and Roberto stepped up to the position of the right winger. At this time, Messi naturally knew that the right was rarely defended, so he did not pass the ball rashly, but tried to compete with his teammates. Coordination on a small scale.

Therefore, he took two steps to the right, and suddenly a ball on the outer instep of his right foot was very concealed, and Schnei didn't notice it at all. He kept staring at Messi's feet, thinking that Messi was walking forward. The movement of the ball, Schone's next defensive preparations are all ready, but suddenly Messi is an outside instep ball, and the ball is given to Roberto on the right.

Roberto moved a few steps to the center, got the ball and went forward, and immediately crossed with the arch of his right foot.

At this time, Suarez was the only one in Ajax's penalty area.

In fact, crossing from the side has never been a regular offensive method for Barcelona.

Therefore, Dericht, who was marking Suarez, did not take off rashly, because he also saw that Suarez had no preparations for taking off at all.

Sure enough, Roberto made a false shot, pretending to pass, but in fact, he suddenly pushed forward with his right foot, hooked the ball with his left foot, threw Tagliafico away, and then made a through pass with his left foot, and Messi thrust in. Behind the Ajax defense.

"Oops!"

Blind, who was on the penalty line, saw the ball go past him on the left side of his body, while Messi ran past him on the right side.

He subconsciously wanted to pull Messi's clothes, but this is the penalty area line.

Blind withdrew his hand, and then forced himself to turn around, turning his knee in an extremely awkward defensive manner. This way of turning his knee, if he didn't do it right, would directly cause a serious injury.

But Blind turned around, and then he was about to block.

The good news is that Blind is fine, the bad news is that Messi has the ball.

He got the ball at the corner between the right sideline of the penalty area and the horizontal line of the penalty area, because Roberto's pass was still a little small, forcing Messi to move laterally to get the ball.

When Blinder saw it, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to block the cut-in route immediately, and then directed his right hand to the outside of the penalty area, which meant that I blocked the in-cut breakthrough line from the bottom line of the penalty area, and the defensive players outside the penalty area quickly blocked it. Cut-in route outside the penalty area.

Blind thought his judgment was very accurate, but he didn't expect that Messi didn't want to cut in at all. Instead, he flicked the ball with his right foot, pulled the ball back quickly with his left foot, and then poked forward with his toe.

The ball passed through Blind's crotch and pointed to the position behind De Ligt.

There Suarez burst out.

Dericht wanted to touch the ball with his left foot, but he couldn't reach it.

And Suarez is going to kick the ball with his feet.

"It's over!"

This is Dericht's real thought at this time. The pass is so close to the goal. As long as the offensive player touches the ball, it is probably about to score.

Because it is difficult for ordinary goalkeepers to defend against such a close shot.

However, Ajax's main goalkeeper Onana is not an ordinary goalkeeper. He is the goalkeeper with the highest save success rate this season, but he does not play in the five major leagues. This data is generally considered to be mixed with water, and he is still In the UEFA Champions League, the goalkeeper with the highest shooting success rate in the penalty area is a not very popular goalkeeper data, and it is a branch of the saving success rate.

Also, Onana is also a goalkeeper from La Masia's youth training.

Having said so much above, the reason is of course——

"Beautiful! Amazing! Onana saved this close shot! Suarez kicked the ball firmly, but the ball was saved by Onana on the goal line! It's so beautiful ! Such an extreme reaction!"

"Look, Zhan Jun, the Ajax players applaud Onana!"

"Barcelona got the first corner kick in the first half. Ajax still has to be careful and defend the corner first."

"Actually, Barcelona's set-piece attack, um—"

Liu Yue originally wanted to say that there is no need to worry about Barcelona's set-piece offense. After all, they don't have any high points, and if they have any, it is Pique.

But then I thought, after all, there are still a lot of Barcelona fans in China, so it's not very good to accept, so I accept it.

However, once the words were collected, it seemed to be very effective for the show.

At this time, on the court, Lin Kedi also returned to the penalty area to participate in the defense.

Standing on the line of the penalty area, he couldn't help but said to De Jong: "I saw the ball clearly from behind just now. It was completely Messi who passed the ball, and then ran behind Daly by himself, and then passed through again. The pass from the crotch is so scary!"

"So, when facing Messi, we must not give him a chance. We must limit him. In the second half, he may not be physically fit enough to perform much!"

"In fact, as the coach said, we can completely cut off the connection between the midfielder and him. After all, Roberto can't always come up, don't want him to defend behind the right."

"You're right - but let's defend the corner first."

At the left corner flagpole, Barcelona's corner kick was taken without any threat. Onana hugged him with both hands, and then fell to the ground and pressed him, delaying for a while.

Lin Kedi saw that Onana picked up the ball, turned around and ran forward. Although he also knew that Onana would probably delay for a while and slow down a little, but whether he passed the ball or whether he would make a fast break For his affairs, he must run to his position.

Link looked back while running, crossed the center line to see Onana before getting up and putting the ball on the ground in the penalty area, Link stopped, and he stood behind Busquez on the right side.

Because generally speaking, Onana likes to throw the ball or short pass to the two wings instead of directly to the central defender.

If Onana is given to Tagliafico on the left, Tagliafico will immediately seek cooperation with his teammates after taking a few steps. Although he also has the speed and ability to advance with the ball, Tagliafico I have always felt that my job is to defend, and he will not pursue too much pressure when attacking, of course it is just like this now.

So if Onana gave it to the left, Link's position was to the left of the center, because Tadic prefers to pass directly to find himself after getting the ball, and it is easier to catch the ball by being farther away.

And if Onana looks for Mazrawi on the right.

He is different, he will definitely take the ball forward and over the center line, so that Ziyech in front of Mazraoui will retract, and then join Van der Beek, and the two will be in Link A short double front midfielder position is formed behind the enemy.

When Mazraoui takes the winger position, he will pass it to Van der Beek or Ziyech. At that time, Link will either pull the side, or go forward directly, and one of Van der Beek and Ziyech will also Will either pull sideways or drive forward to attract defenders.The ultimate goal is to give the ball to Lin Kedi.

This is the difference in offensive tactics between the two sides of Ajax when the goalkeeper kicks off the ball. This is a small part of Ajax's offensive tactical system, but it is a whole system.

So Lin Kedi is waiting now, waiting for Onana's action.

Of course, Onana is not like the traditional Barcelona youth training goalkeeper, who does not pass long passes but short passes. Onana may also play big.

This makes it easier.

If you open your feet, Van der Beek will quickly advance forward and Link Kedi to form a double forward, and then the two will surround the landing point. Naturally, it is best to grab the ball. If you can’t grab the ball, Link Kedi and Van der Beck Will counter-grab on the spot, press high and press.

But this time, Onana directly chose to open his feet.

A big foot drives forward.

Van der Beek immediately moved forward and judged the position of the landing point.

When Lin Kedi saw that the landing point was closer to Van der Beek, he immediately stopped rushing to avoid the two colliding with each other. Lin Kedi immediately moved forward a few steps, keeping onside distance.

Then Van der Beek successfully stopped the ball. Instead of stopping the ball and looking forward before passing the ball, he stopped the ball and immediately went straight forward.

Because he knew that Lin Kedi was there.

Link, on the other hand, took a lunge and rushed out from behind Pique. Before Langley rushed diagonally, he hit the ball, then made a trip, and immediately started to accelerate.

He dribbled the ball to the top of the arc in the penalty area.

Ter Stegen did not hesitate, and immediately attacked, opening his arms while attacking to expand the defensive area.

Lin Kedi knew he couldn't hesitate anymore, so he shot decisively, wanting to hit the lower right corner of the goal.

The ball managed to pass over Ter Stegen, but flew out of the goal against the post.

"Oh! It's a pity that the cooperation between Van der Beek and Link Kedi is very exquisite this time. Link Kedi's receiving the ball, receiving the through ball and then reaching the top of the penalty area is also very beautiful. It's a pity that the final shot was Flew off the baseline against the post. Goal kick."

"Both sides made one attack each, both beautiful and threatening, both sides had shots very close to the goal, but neither side could complete the goal, these two shots were short-term It was completed in a short 3 minutes, which was a suffocating 3 minutes for both sides! It is the 23rd minute of the first half, the score is still 0 to 1, and Ajax leads by 1 goal in the away game .” (End of this chapter)
