Football: Draw a card to get a super-intelligent dragon and a flaming shot

On the evening of August 11, 2013, King Power Stadium, Leicester, England.

Even two kilometers away from the stadium, you can hear faint cheers.

30,000 people almost raised their hands to celebrate.

Facing Leeds United's brutal defense, Lin Mo did not give in, nor did he get too excited.

He used a clean tackle to not only complete a high-quality counterattack, but also knocked the opponent to the ground!

Sometimes, even without scoring a goal, a player only needs a beautiful defense to make the home fans cheer.

It's a pity that Lin Mo's wonderful pass was not received by his teammates.

Paul Gallagher could not have imagined that Lin Mo could really send a soul-stirring through pass in the double-team, which resulted in him not being able to start early and catch up with the ball, and ultimately wasting a great opportunity.

After missing this ball, Paul Gallagher was also full of apologies and gave Lin Mo a thumbs up.

Lin Mo would not blame his teammates, but he was still somewhat regretful.

Leeds United's defense is very strong, and it was an excellent opportunity just now.

If it was Vardy, he would definitely run in advance.

Then, perhaps because he felt the threat from Lin Mo, he encountered special treatment from Leeds United.

Whenever he got the ball, someone would stick to him and prevent him from turning around smoothly.

Lin Mo could pass the ball sideways or back, but his forward pass would be blocked.

He wanted to try to dribble away, but unfortunately the opponent's defensive positioning was also very experienced.

Lin Mo's skills could only keep the ball from being lost as much as possible, or try to pass one person, but the second defensive player would arrive quickly.

Even the commentator couldn't help but tease:

"Leeds United was really serious today. They even paid so much attention to an 18-year-old player. If you don't know, you would think that the Foxes' midfielder was Xavi."

"However, they did a good job of pre-match research. Lin Mo's creative passing is the Foxes' latest secret weapon."

"Leeds United didn't want to repeat the same mistake, and so far their defense was pretty good... Hey hey hey? This ball!"

With 25 minutes into the game, the commentator thought the Foxes' attack was ineffective.

Unexpectedly, Lin Mo suddenly retreated to the center circle, almost parallel to the center back.

When he received the ball, he took advantage of the opponent's lack of pressure and kicked it decisively, sending a pass across half the field!

All-around pass!

"Lin Mo!! This ball is too……"

The commentator was about to say that it was too much, but the ball flew flat and fast, and instantly hit the penalty area!

Striker Paul Nugent quickly rushed forward to grab the ball, taking away two defenders.

Because the ball was obviously heading for his head!

Unexpectedly, everyone seemed to be dazzled!

The ball suddenly deflected in the air, with a strange arc, and went straight to the center forward Chris Wood in the back corner!

In the case of no one guarding, Chris Wood would not miss the opportunity!

It was like training, and he easily headed the ball into the goal!

At the moment of the goal, the Blue Fox fans behind the stands had already stood up and cheered!

"Header!!! The ball goes in!!"

"Chris Wood!! Powerful header!"

"The home team Foxes take the first goal!"

"I have to say, 80% of the credit for this goal, no, 90% should be attributed to Lin!"

"His sudden long pass backwards was simply a stroke of genius!"

"It was obviously the easiest high ball to intercept, but it perfectly bypassed the defender's air defense range and went straight over the teammate's head!"

"He almost fed the cake into his teammates' mouths!"

"Chris Wood only scored 5 goals in 37 appearances last season. He is just a tactical fulcrum and his goal efficiency is the lowest among Championship forwards!"

"But! My teammate is Lin Mo, so scoring a goal is that easy!"

……

The Sky Sports commentator was very professional and analyzed the main threat of this attack at a glance.

The TV screen was also repeatedly replaying Lin Mo's nearly 50-meter long pass!

From the right side of the midfield, a long arc almost turned a big corner in the penalty area, deceiving everyone and accurately reaching the top of his teammates!

This kind of pass, perhaps only masters like Pirlo can do it!

It seems that Leeds United's attention is not exaggerated, but should be more important!

The director knows very well, and the camera is given to Leeds United coach Brian McDermott.

Standing on the sidelines, his face is quite ugly.

Obviously, the defensive tactics were carefully arranged, but the ball was still lost!

Who knows that Chinese kid can even pull to the center line to pass a threatening ball?

It's really hell!

He waved his hand quickly, signaling the players on the field to start close pressing, even if Lin Mo went to the toilet, he had to follow him.

At the same time, he signaled the full-back to move a little ahead and be ready to launch a counterattack at any time, and he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

After a slight change in tactics, Leeds United really got two opportunities to counterattack on the wing.

They took advantage of Leicester City's forward position and broke through the home team's defense

"Oops!! The Foxes seemed to want to press on after scoring the goal, but instead gave the visiting team a chance!"

"Full-back Rich DeLaet was seriously out of position! Lin Mo had to fill in and defend on the wing!"

"But Leeds United reached the middle in time!"

"Ross McCormack!!!"

"Beautiful!!! This ball is here!"

"Just 3 minutes later, Leeds United equalized the score! The experienced striker blocked his position and made a hidden shot with his left foot, which penetrated the Blue Foxes' goal!"

"Before the end of the first half, the two sides were tied 1:1!"

……

Back in the locker room, head coach Nigel Pearson praised Lin Mo's offensive organization.

He either didn't pass the ball forward or made a fatal attack, which brought great torture to the opponent.

The few passes he made were all threatening, but unfortunately his teammates didn't cooperate well and only scored one goal.

The defensive error also allowed the opponent to equalize the score

"In the second half, let's not push too hard. Don't be anxious."

"Lin, if you are targeted, you can try to pass the ball to Danny, or to Anthony on the right, and look for opportunities to run and pull, looking for an open space."

"We should slow down the pace and try not to give the opponent any chances."

Nigel Pearson hesitated but chose a more conservative tactic.

Because Leeds United's counterattacks were very efficient, he didn't want to lose the ball more than scoring a goal.

Lin Mo frowned, but said nothing.

The basic quality of a player is to try to cooperate with the team's tactics.

Football is not a one-man show. Everyone's choice of handling the ball is practiced.

Even if he wants to attack, there is nothing he can do if his teammates don't run, unless he runs through the whole court.

There was no substitution in the midfield, so Vardy could only continue to sit on the bench and wait for an opportunity.

After the kick-off, Leicester City's conservatism did not allow the opponent to get an offensive opportunity. After 20 minutes of the game, there was still no shot.

But the Foxes' own attack was ineffective.

Lin Mo kept trying to break away and create opportunities, but the opponent kept a close eye on him, using various small movements to test and harass him, and took turns to defend him.

His all-round pass had a small"pre-swinging action" at the moment of passing the ball.

The timing of swinging his legs to exert force can easily be"interrupted" by the opponent who is closely guarding him.

After all, the game in reality is not a game, not an animation, and there is no invincible frame.

Lin Mo had to wait patiently for the opportunity.

Seeing that the game was still tied after 80 minutes, Lin Mo could no longer bear it.

Taking advantage of the opponent's reduced physical strength, he suddenly dribbled past the opponent and advanced alone, just like in the Asian Youth Championship!

"Lin Mo!! Beautiful! Passed!"

"What will he choose when he breaks through the middle and reaches the top of the penalty area?"

"Try a long shot directly!!!"

Bang!

Lin Mo's powerful long shot, unfortunately, his intention was obvious, it was blocked by the opponent's defender and hit his back!

"Why——"

The home fans sighed in unison. It seemed that this attack was over.

Even the Leeds United players were preparing to launch a counterattack.

However, the next second, Lin Mo suddenly jumped high and rushed to the point where the ball landed.

"The ball was blocked, Leeds United were ready to... Wait!!! Oh my god!!!"

"Lin! Suddenly jumped outside the penalty area!"

Bang——

A huge noise resounded throughout the stadium! A flash of lightning streaked across the penalty area!

The Leeds United goalkeeper felt something whizzing towards him and turned his head subconsciously! He was shocked!!

The football... the football hit the net heavily! In the 84th minute of the game, Leicester City took the lead again!

2:1!!
