Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

At this moment, the fans of the Three Lions at Wembley Stadium had completely lost the joy of leading the score just now.

They saw the team's difficulties in the last ten minutes.

Now they can only pray that the Three Lions will have good tactical improvements in the second half!

In the home team's locker room.

Mancini immediately pulled over the tactical board, analyzed the situation on the field, and made new adjustments to the players' positions.

Mancini said seriously,

"Forget the disadvantage in the first 30 minutes of the first half, we have played the desired effect!"

"Gareth should be nervous, after all, this is their home court. Now, I ask you to score more goals in the second half!"

"I don't care how many they score, I just ask you to do your best!"

"Giogio (Chiellini) and Leonardo (Bonucci) are in charge of the defense, just go ahead and attack."

"It is said that Italians are only good at defense, we want to show everyone that we can attack!"

In the away team's locker room, Southgate is also making intensive arrangements for tactics and personnel.

The three-back system is still a bit aggressive. If the opponent suddenly breaks into the penalty area, Maguire and Stones can't really do 100% effective defense.

It is also worth noting that Maguire's performance today was very average, and he also received a yellow card, which is a hidden danger.

And it's not just a defense problem.

For Southgate, the team now needs to strengthen the offense and use offense instead of defense!

Blind defense will only fall into Italy's trap!

Thinking of this, Southgate immediately said to Trippier,

"Kieran, you rest in the second half."

Then Nanmen looked at Saka again,

"Get ready, Bukayo, I will replace you. We need to change to 433."

If it is 433, then Chen Chen will play as a front midfielder, and Rice and Carwin will drop back to play as double back midfielders.

The actual position should be more inclined to 4213.

Chen Chen's range of activities will become very wide. Not only can he play the role of a free midfielder, but he can even move forward and cooperate with Kane to play a false 9.

In the Migu live broadcast room, Zhan Jun and others were also discussing the performance of the two teams in the first half.

Zhang Lu emphasized the problem of Maguire.

Throughout the European Cup cycle, Maguire's performance was very good.

But in the first half today, Ma Datou had a little shadow of Manchester United, turning slowly and slowing down.

In short, the aircraft carrier turned around.

In this regard, Zhang Lu and General Fan both put forward a point of view, replacing Maguire with Mings.

Compared with Maguire, Mings is better at interception and coordinated defense, and his defensive discipline will be better.

And he has no yellow card yet, so he can make bold moves.

Then everyone talked about Chen Chen again.

Zhan Jun spoke first,

"Chen Chen played very well in the first 30 minutes, but due to the defense required by the team's backcourt, Chen Chen did not have any outstanding offensive performance."

Zhang Lu nodded,

"In the second half, we will see how Southgate will free up Chen Chen. If England wants to score, they will have to rely on Chen Chen on both sides and in the midfield to organize and instigate."

"But as we saw in the first half, the two sides must prioritize backcourt defense in the second half. It is not ruled out that Southgate will change the formation to 433, focusing on both offense and defense."

Fan Zhiyi pointed out another point.

"In the first half, Barella went to the middle frequently. Is there a possibility that Chen Chen went to the side and created opportunities from the left, or Luke Shaw, Rice and others created opportunities from the side, and then the players in the middle squeezed the space to the opponent's penalty area and passed the ball from the side."

"After all, England still has tall players!"

Zhan Jun said "hmm",

"General Fan's idea is very good, but I don't know if Southgate thinks so! OK! We see players from both sides come on the field! The second half will start soon!"

"Oh? Italy made the first substitution adjustment."

"Immobile, who scored a goal in the first half but performed mediocrely, was replaced, and the Green Barcelona Sassuolo striker Berardi got a chance to play."

"This is a positional substitution adjustment."

On the side of the court, the fourth official held up a substitution sign.

Not long after, England also proposed a substitution adjustment.

Trippier and Maguire left the field.

Saka and Mings came on the field.

Seeing that Southgate did not make trouble, Zhan Jun and others in the Migu studio breathed a sigh of relief.

When the commentators knew it, the opponents must have known it too.

If Maguire, who performed mediocrely, was still on the court, he might suddenly hit you in the second half!

Fortunately, the only hidden danger has been dealt with now, and the Three Lions can go forward with confidence.The opponent rushed into the penalty area.

The referee Kuipers blew the whistle to start the second half.

England attacked with the ball.

Chen Chen received Kane's pass and directly made a lob shot from the midfield!

This scared Donnarumma!

Fortunately, Donnarumma reacted quickly and ran back to meet the ball, jumped up and lifted the ball over the crossbar!

England got a corner kick!

"Uh~~!"

A sigh rang out at Wembley Stadium.

The Three Lions fans felt very sorry.

If Donnarumma was a little slower, the ball would have been there!

Unlike the sighs of the English fans, the Italian fans had their hair standing up, and I don't know how many people were scared out of their wits!

Of course, not to mention the fans, Mancini on the sidelines was also scared, and the whole person suddenly staggered and almost lost his balance!

Mancini quickly asked the players to pay more attention to Chen Chen.

The Azzurri immediately went into defense.

The two sides started to fight again.

After a few minutes of silence, England got a good chance to attack.

The time on the big screen was exactly the 57th minute.

Mings and Stones were the double central defenders, and this attack was organized by them.

Mings kicked the ball to Stones, who took a few steps to the right, glanced at Kane in the front court, and decisively kicked a long pass!

Blocking Chiellini's position, Kane headed the ball to Chen Chen who was not far away from him.

Then Kane turned and ran, his meaning was very clear, waiting for a through ball!

However, there was Chiellini defending closely next to Kane, and this ball was mostly a 50-50 ball.

So Chen Chen did not choose to pass the ball, he chose to do it himself!

Facing Chiesa who was pressing, Chen Chen also blocked him.

Then Chen Chen's footwork increased, and with a simple bicycle kick to accelerate, Chen Chen just wiped it over!

Jorginho rushed forward to block.

Chen Chen bent slightly, took a step to the left, and then immediately moved to the right!

A fake shake with his shoulders!

Jorginho was not careful and was passed by Chen Chen.

Bonucci immediately stepped forward to make up for the position, but he didn't let Chen Chen pass.

The way he didn't let Chen Chen pass was to knock Chen Chen down with the ball.

The referee blew the whistle and Bonucci received a yellow card.

This was a tactical foul, and Bonucci knew it before he stretched his legs.

However, he still had to appeal.

Seeing Chen Chen fall to the ground, Kane and Saka immediately rushed up to Bonucci to argue!

The referee Kuipers almost failed to control the situation, and the linesmen on both sides rushed in to help control the situation!

There was a noisy booing at Wembley Stadium!
