Chapter 340 This is Leicester City’s counterattack! Scored twice!

After scoring the goal, it was quickly equalized, and it was such an unreasonable long-range shot. It was definitely a heavy blow to the team's morale.

It felt like I had just fallen in love with a goddess, and excitedly drove to the downstairs of her house, only to find that the goddess was getting into a Lamborghini!
Emery on the sidelines also realized that something seemed not right, and immediately pressed his hands on the disciples on the court, and then shouted loudly in Spanish:

"Steady, don't rush!"

"Grzegorz (Krychowiak), stick up and don't let him take a long shot!"

"Run and catch the ball!"

Hearing the coach's call, Krechowiak, who was on the field with his hands on his hips, stared seriously at the Blue Fox No. 7 who showed a smile, but he murmured in his heart:
Do you think he is so easy to follow? !

I can't keep up with him!
As the main defensive midfielder of the Polish national team, Krychowiak is both offensive and defensive, and has precise long-pass scheduling.

In La Liga, the animated image of Messi being intercepted after chasing after him for tens of meters was widely circulated on the Internet.

Even in the eyes of many fans, he is one of the few in La Liga who can "defend Messi alone"!

However, in the offensive and defensive round just now, I don’t know if he can defend Messi alone.

However, you definitely can't defend Ling Feng alone!
Even though the Polish midfielder averaged 4.5 interceptions and 2.5 steals per game in La Liga, he is the famous La Liga interception king.

However, in front of the fast-moving Ling Feng, neither the person nor the ball could be intercepted!

Because the other defensive midfielder Nzonzi is tall and moves slower, Emery arranged for Krechowiak to closely guard Ling Feng.

Even though he has experienced Ling Feng's fear through game videos and highlight analysis, he has also customized regional defensive tactics for him.

But he never expected that Ling Feng could resolve all this so easily!
Just a soup-making step and a blast shot through their goal!
Of course, in addition to Ling Feng's personal ability, Emery is still very afraid of Leicester City's quick counterattack.

In his opinion, the Blue Fox's counterattack is not inferior to Real Madrid, which is the best at counterattacking in La Liga!

As long as there is a chance, he can quickly advance from his own backcourt to the opponent's half at the moment of transition between offense and defense, and then complete a very threatening attack!

Therefore, he will let the team stabilize first and keep the ball at his feet as much as possible.

In fact, in the eyes of many people, Tikitaka's passing and controlling tactics are an offensive system.

Actually not.

On the contrary, tikitaka's passing and controlling tactics are an ultimate defensive system!

The core concept of Tikitaka's tactics is to maintain possession of the ball to reduce the pressure on the defensive players at the back.

If the ball can always be controlled at the feet of one's own players, then the opponent cannot get the ball and naturally cannot organize an effective attack. Therefore, it will not be able to pose too great a threat to one's own defensive end, and the defense can be stable.

Strictly speaking, the ultimate goal of tikitaka and bus service is to achieve the same goal through different routes.

All are to reduce the pressure on the opponent's defense.

However, the former is achieved through ball control;

The latter compresses the opponent's offensive space by accumulating numerical advantages in the backcourt.

And why many people think that Barcelona is the strongest team so far, that's because they also have the world's most difficult to crack defensive system tikitaka, and the most difficult to stop offensive player Messi!
Of course, football is a team sport.

No matter how strong Messi's individual ability is, he still needs the strong support of the historical midfield combination Habaib behind him.

The two are complementary and cannot exist without the other.

In the era when Habaib is getting older, Messi is also waiting for the help of two superstars, Suarez and Neymar, which can be said to be very lucky.

However, in Ling Feng's view, this is the foundation of super wealthy clubs such as Huang Saren!

The club has huge fame and influence, and it also has a huge attraction for superstars.

This is one of the reasons why he wanted to transfer and leave!
With his current personal strength, even if he continues to be in Leicester City, he will definitely be able to help the Blue Fox become a strong team that can stably hit the top four in the Premier League.

But the rich heritage cannot be established overnight.

Even if they continue to be in the top four of the league, Leicester City still has a long, long way to go before it can truly become a Premier League giant.

For Leicester City, he is full of gratitude.

However, if he is allowed to play out the story of one man, one city at the expense of not being able to compete for the golden ball.

Sorry, he can't.

Because, he is not Batistuta who is tired of loyalty, but Ling Feng who wants to take a good look at the pinnacle of football!

. . .

As the score on the field became one to one, the two sides returned to the same starting line again.

After the kick-off again, following Emery's instructions, Sevilla, who had possession of the ball, played more cautiously.

Leicester City, which specializes in defensive counterattacks, did not rush to press forward and press.

Instead, they stuck to their formation and waited for Sevilla to attack.

This kind of rhythm is what they like best and what they are most happy to see.

No matter if Sevilla takes a step back in their own half, as long as they want to pass the ball across the center line, they will be met with sharp spikes like a hedgehog.
Once the ball is intercepted, the team can launch a quick counterattack and hit the target with a fatal blow!
Under the constant passing and pulling from their opponents, the Blue Fox players gradually discovered that the strength of this Sevilla team seemed to be worse than the Villarreal they defeated in the previous round!
A hot spot on the wing? No!
Pivot center? No!
Midfield commander? Stared by Kanter!
In addition to constantly dropping kicks from the outside and improving the pass success rate, Sevilla's short passing penetration cannot penetrate the Blue Fox's tight defense at all!

Gradually, they are becoming more and more confident as they kick.

When the game reached the 35th minute, the Blue Fox players, who were participating in the European finals for the first time, finally relaxed.

As his emotions stabilize, his actions on the field become more and more comfortable.

The Sevilla side also realized that it was almost impossible to penetrate the Blue Fox's defense through passing and receiving.

And the cross at an angle of 45 degrees could not pass the two strong central defenders Morgan and Huth.

Ever since, with Emery's shouts from the sidelines, Sevilla began to attack the two wings.

Let the ball pass through the midfield quickly and hand it to the two wingers, let them hit the wall for a one-two, or force a breakthrough, and then sweep the low ball to the goal, and Gameiro, who has excellent sense of grabbing points, looks for opportunities.

This tactic was somewhat effective and allowed Sevilla to once again take control of the offensive initiative.

When the game reached the forty-three-minute mark, there was not much time left in the first half. In addition, the moment before the end of the half was the peak scoring period when players' attention began to wander.

Therefore, Sevilla launched another wave of offensive!
French midfielder Nzonzi in the center handed the ball to captain Koke on the right, who dribbled the ball forward, and then played a one-two with Banega who came to meet him and hit the wall.

Unfortunately, left back Fuchs was not shaken by the pass at all and just followed Cork closely.

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Fuchs, Cork twisted a few times and could only push the ball outwards and force a cross with his right foot!
This low ball was passed crosswise. The force was not great, but it stuck tightly to the turf and flew towards the center.

Fortunately, Morgan occupied the first landing spot of the ball.

However, he couldn't see Gameiro behind him, so he didn't dare to neglect and started to make a rescue immediately.

And this kick didn't make too much effort to clear the siege.

The original intention was to pass it to the midfielder Drinking Water, and then let him launch a counterattack.

However, at the moment of passing the ball, the two people's eyes did not meet and they reached an agreement.

The passed ball just slipped past the feet of Brother Drinking Water, and then came to the no man's land at the front of the penalty area.

At this moment, the one closest to the ball is Sevilla midfielder Krychowiak who comes in behind. And Ling Feng, who just turned around and stood at the top of the penalty area!

The ball went in the direction of Krechowiak.

Theoretically speaking, Krechowiak, who is accelerating forward, can get the ball faster than Ling Feng, who is chasing the ball.

However, the speed of the two is the key to determining the outcome!
Seeing that Krechowiak was about to rush up to meet the ball and shoot from a long distance, Ling Feng took a step and used Nesta's signature defensive move for the first time!
I'm a sliding shovel!
At the critical moment, Ling Feng flew to make a sliding tackle, grabbed the ball before Krychowiak's long shot, and controlled the ball with a very cool move.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up smoothly, shouldered Krechowiak's collision sideways, and protected the ball at his feet.

Seeing this, Mahrez on the right accelerated forward without hesitation.

And Albrighton on the left was half a beat slower and ran forward desperately.

This is the essence of Leicester City's defensive counterattack tactics!

As long as Ling Feng gets the ball, the two wingers will rush forward immediately, pulling the defensive players on both sides, creating space for Ling Feng to advance in the middle, and also preparing to receive the ball for the upcoming counterattack!
"Put him down!"

"foul!"

Amid the shouts of his teammates, Krechowiak reluctantly reached out to pull Ling Feng.

However, it was too late.

Ling Feng made soup and then galloped past him.

The jersey he was wearing was even driven by his acceleration and shook off Krychowiak's hand.

"Ling Feng gets the ball!"

Seeing Ling Feng advancing with the ball, Emery on the sidelines suddenly widened his eyes and shouted loudly to N Zongqi, the last barrier in the middle:

"Stop him!!!"

Immediately afterwards, Emery saw Ling Feng stride forward with the ball for several meters. Before the other defensive midfielder Nzongqi rushed towards him murderously, he used the outside instep of his right foot to send an extremely precise arc. A straight pass, penetrating the ribs of the center back and left back!

"Nice through shot!"

The ball, with a slight arc of outward spin, came right in front of Mahrez who was running behind.

The light figure wearing No. 26 stopped once and for all, entered the penalty area, took the ball, glanced at the middle, and passed directly across!

And Ling Feng, who didn't stop advancing all the way, hit the ball and hit the ball and hit the net!

Suddenly, the ball collided fiercely with the net, causing white waves to bloom.

concise!
Efficient! !
fatal! ! !

This is Leicester City's quick counterattack!
And for this goal, 80% of the credit goes to Ling Feng!

From the successful sliding tackle to stealing, to instigating a counterattack, advancing with the ball, to the final through ball, outflanking and completing the finishing blow, he was involved in the whole process!
"Wow!"

"The ball is in!"

"This is simply a textbook quick counterattack, and the whole goal is a smooth one!"

"Ling Feng scored twice and helped Leicester City overtake the score!"

"Ling Feng is on full fire tonight!"

After the goal, Ling Feng rushed towards Mahrez with excitement on his face. After the two high-fived and hugged, they put their shoulders around each other and came to the blue stands, raising their arms and shouting:

"Blue Fox, move forward!"

Immediately afterwards, other teammates rushed towards the two people and celebrated with them.

Someone was rubbing Ling Feng's black hair, and someone was patting his back:

"nice shot!"

"Good job!"

After celebrating, Ling Feng also smoothed his messy black hair and said to his teammates seriously:
"Guys, that's it! That's it! Keep it up!"

"We can definitely win this game!"

Ling Feng's words made his teammates nod or make fists in agreement.

As Leicester City overtook the score in the first half, the balance of victory seemed to have quietly tilted towards the Blue Fox.

No one would have thought that the defending champion, who seemed to be in control of the situation at the beginning, would be defeated by two attacks by the Blue Fox in just an instant.

In other words, Sevilla was stunned by Ling Feng using two opportunities that were not opportunities!
An unstoppable super heavy shot and a wave of fast and sharp counterattacks easily overtaken the score.

Who can I talk to to explain this? !
After this goal, not long after, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

After a short intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Being one goal behind and fearing Leicester City's counterattack, Sevilla became more patient and ink when in possession of the ball.

Even Banega, the core of Sevilla's midfield, did not dare to send a vertical pass easily to avoid losing the ball.

Seeing that Sevilla is not in a hurry, Leicester City, who is leading the score, is not in a hurry either.

However, as time passed bit by bit, Emery and Sevilla finally couldn't hold it back any longer!

When the time came to the 70th minute, seeing that the wing could not open the gap, Banega in the middle was stared at by Kanter, unable to show his creativity.

Ever since, Emery directly replaced the team's core midfielder Banega with the 1.9-meter high center Vicente Iborra, forming a tall and fast team with forward Gameiro.

Then change to four-four-two!
Add a fulcrum in the frontcourt, and then play the ball for Gameiro. The crosses from both sides can also be less monotonous, but a change.

And this substitution and tactical adjustment has indeed had a certain effect.

Give the ball to the winger, and then either directly cross it at a 45-degree angle, or break through and cross the ball.

Having one more crossing option also makes wing breakthroughs more elusive.

Because Simpson and Fuchs were not sure whether the winger would make a low pass or directly hit the ball high.

For a time, Leicester City's defensive formation was flattened.

Every cross into the penalty area will cause a commotion.

The Blue Fox defender could only make a clearance immediately, but could not calmly hand the ball to the midfielder and then launch a counterattack.

However, it seems dangerous, but in fact it is as stable as an old dog.

And just when Sevilla was attacking with all its strength, it unknowingly exposed more space in the backcourt!

Especially when the offensive is concentrated on the wings, the number of people in the center will be reduced.

And looking at Sevilla, who was fully pressing, Ling Feng's eyes were bright as he returned to the front of the penalty area.

His intuition told him that the opportunity to kill the game might appear at any time!
With just one counterattack, he can pierce the sword into his opponent's heart!
