Football: The strongest center in history

Chapter 159 beat their momentum down

It has to be said that Schalke 04’s head coach, Mr. Stevens, has clearly studied the tactics of Paris Saint-Germain.

At this stage, Paris Saint-Germain’s offensive tactical core is only one!!

That is… Ronado!

It can even be said that there is only one core of the whole scene, which is also Ronaldo.

Because all the tactics in Paris are based on the characteristics of Ronaldo – using Ronaldo’s impact and the dominance of the high-altitude ball, on the one hand, it can create a strong threat, on the other hand, it can also suppress the opponent.

After all, against a player like Ronaldo, your defense will not dare to press up and participate in the attack anyway.

In this game, Schalke 04 focused on limiting Paris Saint-Germain’s crosses on the defensive end.

Of course.

Defending alone will never do.

Can you prevent him for 90 minutes?

Can’t prevent it!

So, Stevens arranged the attack!

At home, attack out!

For… Victory!

I have to say that this is a very bold strategy.

Because if the attack is not smooth, it is easy to be counterattacked by the other party.

But Stevens clearly thought it through.

First of all, Schalke 04 is playing at home, and the power of going to Schalke Stadium is famous in Europe. Not to mention Paris, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona and other teams, it is also difficult to play in this stadium.

And, from the lineup, Schalke 04 does not have to be weak at Paris Saint-Germain.

Up front, Schalke 04 has three players: Raul, Draxler and Huntelaar.

They are former Spain internationals, current internationals of Germany and the Netherlands, respectively.

The offensive group formed by these three people can even catch up with the attacking combination of the European first-line giants to some extent.

Ronado is strong.

But are Raul and others weak?

Since the defense can’t be defended… Then attack!

Attack instead of defense!

No matter how good Ronado is, can he still participate in defense?

He’s just a striker after all!

This very risky and aggressive tactic apparently caught Paris Saint-Germain off guard.

Now, the score of 3-0 made Stevens extremely proud.

He glanced at Ancelotti, who looked like he had given up treatment on the other side, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Defeating a famous coach like Carlo Ancelotti is cool!

Right now… Can it be taken back?

Stevens thought about it and decided not to change his tactics!

Still press out!

Attack out!

Control the ball!

As long as the possession is more on your side, then rest assured.

Possession and offense are the best defenses.

The ball is at his feet, how can the opponent attack?

This game is stable!

Stevens also returned to the dugout.

Led the team to the Europa League semi-finals: If you go further, it’s the final!

Although the Europa League is much inferior to the Champions League, it is also the honor of the European champions.

Stevens was thrilled at the thought of his chance to win the Europa League.

….

And what about Ronaldo.

He also found the problem.

Schalke 04 is firmly in possession of the ball, and their possession is not yet passive, because they are also afraid of Paris Saint-Germain front-court pressure, in case of losing the ball, they will directly counterattack.

They pressed Paris Saint-Germain in the half by attacking, while being patiently organised.

In this way, even if you lose the ball, you can leave the ball in the back of Paris Saint-Germain through an immediate counter-grab or even a foul.

In this way, the pressure on the rear of the side is minimized.

Of course, Ronaldo didn’t know the other party’s calculations, but the problem he found was… He hasn’t touched the ball in a while!

As a center forward, you can’t get the ball!

It’s a very literary thing.

He found himself on top of the box, top at the front to attract defense, which was of no use at all.

If you can’t get the ball, naturally you can’t score it!

、

So, he decided to withdraw.

At this time, Schalke 04 fired the plane with a long-range shot.

Ronaldo pulls back to the middle circle.

At this point, the football reached Mene’s feet, and Mene looked up to find that Ronaldo had returned and was not in the front court.

This time, it is not good to pass it forward.

“Jeremy, you go to the front court and help me set up the cannon!”

Ronaldo said.

Mene understood right away.

This is to strengthen the long-range shot.

He gave Ronaldo a thumbs up in approval.

Anyway, now that he is three goals behind, he has nothing to do, it is better to give Ronaldo as a fort.

Ronaldo started trying to shoot from distance.

Although I didn’t score, I still reaped the benefits.

The first was to force Schalke’s goalkeeper Hildebrand to make a save – although Ronaldo’s shot was at the right angle, but it was powerful! He didn’t make an easy save every time.

This force is too great, the goalkeeper does not dare to take it, can only punch out with two fists.

“Ronaldo tried to shoot from distance, but his shot was either higher than the goal or too angled to pose a threat to Schalke’s goal!”

The German commentator also took note of Ronaldo, the centre-forward he had previously highlighted, and had not played much of a decent game so far in this game.

His header became unthreatening after a lack of wing support, and his long-range shot… And that’s it for now.

On the sidelines, Schalke’s head coach Stevens also breathed a sigh of relief.

Ronaldo didn’t have a chance to header.

Long-range shots don’t look good either.

This one, it seems, was asked.

Stevens smiled.

However…

Is that really the case?

This is Ronado on purpose!!

He has brought his strength to the extreme, it is not because he will not pursue angles, and the talent of “heavy artillery” is not a white spot. This is only because he wants the other party to see where his heavy artillery is “heavy” and leave a lingering impression on them.

Beat them up so that they don’t dare to be so rampant in the next round. When you pick up your legs, you can only tremble in the penalty area.

He wants to form a strategic deterrent!

It’s not just for this game, it’s for the next…

You have to make them feel scared first!

In this way, they can beat their momentum down.
