Football: The strongest post-zero generation

England received a free kick in the backcourt. Arnold's football flew towards the top of the penalty area. Harry Kane failed to control the angle due to interference from Thiago Silva, and the football flew towards Sterling and Fagner. .

Sterling is 1.7 meters tall and Fagner is 1.68 meters tall. They are almost the same height. This five-to-five ball fight ended up hitting Fagner on the back of the head and out of the sideline.

Immediately, Ashley Young threw a side ball.

Sterling held up Fagner and passed the ball back to Henderson. Faced with Paulinho's defense, Henderson made a move with his upper body leaning forward to meet the ball. Paulinho moved to defend the ribs. Taking a step back in advance, Henderson passed the football and at the same time twisted his body back to the outside. Without making too many adjustments, he directly passed the ball to the right.

Li Qing, the core of England's offense, has already pulled to the right side of the offense, waiting for the ball.

Marcelo felt a little guilty when he saw the ball coming in mid-air. It wasn't until he noticed Fernandinho appearing in his field of vision while moving outward that he let out a sigh of relief. In addition, Coutinho and Willian came over to help defend. His heart that was in his throat finally fell back.

Facing Marcelo who was pulled out, Li Qing felt very relaxed. He raised and retracted his left foot and placed the football firmly on his left foot. It was like a magnet holding the falling iron tightly. The sky above the auditorium was instantly A burst of shouts broke out: "aoaooaoaooooooooo——"

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei changed the topic and raised his voice an octave: "The ball stopped beautifully!"

Marcelo guarded Li Qing breathlessly, maintaining a safe distance of at least two meters, waiting for William and the two birds to come over to help defend. Coutinho was preventing Li Qing from pulling the ball back, and Fernandinho Beware of Li Qing cutting inside.

Under the huge cheers from the audience, Li Qing lowered his left shoulder and pretended to go inside. Marcelo and Fernandinho, who was defending, were both shocked, thinking about coming. A shut-down defense.

Li Qing naturally did not go inside. He used the shaking of his upper body to gain the advantage of starting toward the baseline. He moved the ball toward the baseline with the inside of his left foot, preparing to overtake from the baseline and enter the penalty area.

We all know that Li Qing is extremely explosive and he will definitely not be able to catch someone if he directly pursues him. Both Marcelo and Fernandinho have experienced despair and turned to the left while maintaining a safe distance. They have a tacit understanding. Ka is the only place where Li Qing needs to go inside.

I saw Li Qing stepping forward with his right foot and standing on the right side of the football, about forty centimeters away. He raised his left foot and hit the football with the outside instep.

Fernandinho and Marcelo, who were full of energy, looked at the football rising from the ground. They didn't even have time to stretch their feet to block it. They could only watch the football draw a rainbow from the outside to the inside in mid-air.

Both Miranda and Thiago Silva were ready to wait for Li Qing to cut in or shoot. They did not do a good job of defense at all. They watched the football fly into the penalty area before panicking to find Harry Kane.

At this time, Harry Kane had already jumped under the spotlight.

Throw your head and attack the goal!

"wwoowowoooooooooo——"

As the Brazilian fans screamed hysterically in the auditorium, Harry Kane completed a high-level header before the penalty spot, and the football changed its trajectory and flew to the far end of the goal.

At this moment, Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson was like a spring that was squeezed to the extreme. He swooped out to the right and flicked the ball hard with the fingertips of his right hand. With such a flick, the football deviated from its trajectory. , rubbing the bottom line outside the far goal post.

After landing, Harry Kane put his head in his hands. Looking at Alisson who got up, he felt incredible. This ball... was actually saved?

Alisson, who grew a beard and was not angry, looked like the God of Thunder. He roared at the two central defenders who were not looking at them at the critical moment, venting his dissatisfaction.

Miranda and Thiago Silva took the blame first and were wary of Alisson's ferocious appearance. While actively hugging each other, they said they would never make the mistake of watching the ball but ignoring the person next time.

"What a pity!"

China Channel 5 commentator He Wei looked at the slow-motion replay of the broadcast and exclaimed: "Li Qing's cross with the outside of the left foot is extremely concealed and the quality is very good. It is hard to detect. Harry Kay En Ye is very good, but Alisson is in excellent condition and can turn the tide. "

At the same time, Harry Kane gave Li Qing a thumbs up, saying that he passed the ball well.

Li Qing also smiled and gave a thumbs up, hoping that Harry Kane could send the ball into the goal guarded by Alisson in the next game.

Alisson saved Brazil, but Brazilian coach Tite frowned and looked at Li Qing with even more fear.

The cross with the outside of the foot just now was done very well, and it was definitely not an improvisation. In other words, Li Qing has the skills with the outside of the left foot, but he doesn't use it very much. Then... the next defense will be troublesome.

In this way, left-handed Li Qing can not only cut inside, but also send exquisite crosses through the outside instep of his left foot...

"Headache!"

Tite rubbed his temples with his hands, but became nervous again within seconds as Alisson saved Brazil's efforts to deny Harry Kane a sure-shot header, but also gave England a chance to attack from a corner kick.

Looking at it, there are more tall men in England.

Maguire, Stones, Harry Kane, Dier, plus Li Qing, who has already contributed a very exciting header goal in this World Cup, this first corner kick defense since the beginning made Tite feel a little bit. pressure.

As Li Qing ran towards the penalty area, the pressure gradually turned into anxiety.

Except for goalkeeper Alisson, the team is 1.93 meters tall. The tallest is centre-back captain Miranda at 1.86 meters, followed by Thiago Silva at 1.83 meters, Paulinho at 1.82 meters and Firmino at 1.82 meters. 1.81 meters. Looking further, they are all under 1.8 meters.

It can be said that Brazil's first corner kick defense was very passive, especially Maguire, who is 1.9410 kilograms, standing in the penalty area, standing there like a Big Mac, even if he does not move, he can bring huge pressure to people.

Besides, it’s impossible for Maguire to stay still.

Therefore, the weakness of Brazil's insufficient air defense capabilities was fully exposed at this time. The broadcast screen happened to show Li Qing. He Wei, the commentator of China Channel 5, changed the subject: "If I remember correctly, Li Qing's team faced Argentina in the first round. A wonderful header, this time... facing Brazil with insufficient air defense capabilities, can it reproduce its unique style? "

"aoaooaooooooooo——"

The heart-pounding chants of England fans rang out over the Kazan Arena.

Harry Kane did not help to take the lead, and he was working hard. Stones and Dier were also ready to make a move. Only Neymar and Fernandinho were the only Brazilian players in the penalty area to mark the relatively lazy Li Qing.

Compared to Tite who was extremely nervous, Southgate was full of expectations. For some reason, his eyes naturally looked at Li Qing.
