Football’s First Defender

After a thrilling mistake, Yang Feng and his teammates took advantage of their excellent defense to keep the gap of one goal. Even though Manchester United's counterattack was extremely threatening, Manchester United's defense was very good, but Liverpool's offense still needed to move forward bravely. to put more pressure on them.

With a gap of one goal, for both sides, the suspense of this game will definitely be maintained until the last moment.

The players of the two teams still have to do their best to strive for a result that is more favorable to them.

"The game time is running out, the score is still 2-1 on the field, and Liverpool, who are playing away, are in a backward position."

"Rodgers waited for a long time, but did not wait for the team's second goal, and began to expect to use substitutions to adjust the team's offensive."

"Borrini for Sterling, Henderson for Joe Allen."

"At the end of the game, Rodgers began to want to rely on a more concise offense and strive for a goal that could tie the score."

Although Sterling is a young man with plenty of physical fitness and energy, the pressure of such a big game, as well as Sterling's running back and forth before, actually consumed him a lot.

Although it is a pity that he could not persist until the end in such a double-red game, it is also a relief for Sterling to be replaced at this time.

With the current situation of the game, it is actually not that simple to rely on ordinary breakthroughs to create opportunities, especially in the face of a seasoned defensive team like Manchester United.

Before Liverpool made a substitution, Ferguson had already exhausted all his cards. Phil Jones replaced Shinji Kagawa and Smalling replaced Vidic.

Not to mention that Manchester United has become 5 defenders, the mobility and vitality of the team's defense line have been further improved. It can be said that it has cut off the possibility of Liverpool playing time difference and using energetic substitute players to create opportunities on the wing.

It is doomed that the side defense is not easy to break through, and it is impossible to create excellent opportunities. Moreover, there are not many players in the middle, and it is impossible to form a suppressive force in the penalty area. Rogers can only start to increase the number of offensive players blindly, hoping to use the cross to cause Manchester United's defensive chaos and increase the chance of scoring.

In the final stage, except for the chance of setting the ball, the defense led by Yang Feng can only do everything possible to hold on to the current disadvantage, and try to liberate the defensive role of the full backs to enhance the front offense.

"Liverpool is obviously at the end of its rope in a one-on-one positional battle."

"Manchester United's defense is too strong, Liverpool can't create better chances."

This is the strength of the Premier League leader. Manchester United is no longer a matter of balance on both ends of the offense and defense, but basically, they are at the pinnacle of the Premier League team.

This year's Manchester United team was built by Ferguson. The strongest Manchester United in recent years is not only for the league championship, but also for the Champions League trophy this year!

With the powerful Manchester United and the roaring Old Trafford Stadium, there is not much time left for Liverpool.

But on the football field, what fascinates all fans is that when the game is not over, no one knows what will happen?

Maybe there are not many opportunities for Liverpool in positional battles, but in the process of converting the ball, there may not be no opportunities, just like Sturridge's first goal, isn't it the Liverpool players who created a far away goal with fighting? shot chance?

"Liverpool's Glenn Johnson crossed in from the wing, but the ball was easily topped by Phil Jones to complete the clearance."

"Valencia received the ball outside the box and started to accelerate forward."

"Before Liverpool's defense formed a siege, Valencia had already played a long pass and passed the ball to the huge space left behind Glenn Johnson's forward drive."

Van Persie's interlude was just right. Although this long pass was an opportunity, Yang Feng's defensive performance directly destroyed this opportunity.

"Yang Feng! It's still so reassuring. He completed the interception directly in the air, and didn't even make a direct clearance. Instead, he headed the ball to a nearby teammate."

Henderson kicked the ball directly, without the slightest procrastination. Now for Liverpool, it is necessary to seize all the time and complete the attack as soon as possible, so as to find opportunities for offensive and defensive transitions and create the greatest threat.

With a precise direct pass, Tang Ning was near the center circle. After receiving a pass from Henderson, Tang Ning quickly dribbled the ball forward from the center.

Although Manchester United's formation is a little scattered at this time, there are eight red figures of Manchester United in the backcourt except for the goalkeeper. It can also be seen how cautious Manchester United is in the final stage of the game.

Before the two Manchester United players stepped forward to double-team to stop him from finishing, Tangning took a few steps with the ball, and then directly passed the ball with a strong penetrating power to the top of the penalty area.

Manchester United's 8 players formed two lines of defense.

At this time, there are 3 central defenders in the back line, defending Borini and Suarez.

And it may not even take two seconds for the players on the previous line of defense to come to make up the defense.

But in the sports game, faced with Downing's pass, Borini hit the ball with one heel while running, and the ball changed direction slightly, hitting Suarez not far to the right.

In the middle of the three-man defense line, Ferdinand, who is in a free position, intended to go up and double-team Borini. Facing Borini's backheel kick, although he reacted quickly and wanted to make an interception, he was still slow. One shot.

The ball still rolled to Suarez's feet.

Suarez was also on the move. He received this wonderful heel pass from Borini in front of him. Facing Phil Jones in front of him, Suarez directly accelerated to lead the ball, and then bullied Phil Jones for his poor flexibility. In front of the restricted area, complete a "fried meatball" and go left to enter the restricted area.

At the critical moment, Smalling, who had been defending Borini all the time, reacted quickly. When Ferdinand was half kneeling on the ground because he stretched his legs to block him, Smalling abandoned Borini and turned inward, just in time for Suarez. Open a certain space, when you can hit the goal with your kick, you can rush to the position and tackle the ball directly.

Suarez and Smalling completed a pair of feet, but the ball remained almost in place.

Suarez, whose body was leaning forward due to inertia, still hooked the ball and hooked it to his body.

But at this time, Ferdinand in the rear, Smalling on the left, and Phil Jones on the right have formed a three-person siege.

Although within the penalty area, Manchester United players dare not make too much movement, giving Suarez space to "dance ballet".

But after all, the legs can't fight with six legs. Although Suarez tried his best to maintain the protection of the ball, he still lost his balance under the constant physical collision of the opponent.

However, when Suarez fell to the ground, he also brought Smalling who grabbed the ball. In order to complete the clearance, Smalling chose to kick the ball first when he lost his balance.

only.

"Borrini blocks Smalling's clearance!"

"The ball bounced straight into the open space on the left."

"Already plugged in, Sturridge has been waiting for an opportunity on the left."

"Shoot at the ball!"

Unguarded, for the shooter, it is a must-goal opportunity position.

Sturridge swung his leg and hit the goal, aiming at the backward position, strength, angle, there is no problem, but in front of Manchester United, standing is De Gea!

"blocked!"

"De Gea, God reacted!"

"Take off with one palm out, and when it meets Sturridge's shot, the ball changes direction and flies out of the baseline..."

You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder.

there is always a solution to a problem.

Liverpool's attack this time is already a combination of strength and luck. Countless foreshadowings have created this lucky goal for Sturridge. Sturridge's goal selection and even the quality of the goal They are all excellent, but Manchester United's De Gea is even a goalkeeper who is good at attacking.

The 86-minute offensive round really surprised Manchester United fans, but the result was beneficial to Manchester United.

As for Liverpool, it seems that they have used up their offensive luck.

After the corner kick, under the defense of Manchester United's three central defenders, Yang Feng did not get the slightest advantage and was successfully cleared by the opponent.

On the contrary, Van Persie, in the subsequent counterattack, without Yang Feng's restrictions, almost received a pass from Valencia's side, and scored in front of the goal with a dragon tail.

Fortunately, Reina's reaction was quick, and this "dragon wagging its tail" was not too big. Reina completed the save and did not allow Manchester United to score another goal.

However, the offenses of both sides afterwards were full of thunder and rain. At the last moment of the game, Manchester United defended with all their members, and did not dare to be careless to defend the victory.

"Following Gerrard's long-range kick from 35 meters away, the referee immediately blew the whistle to end the game."

"Manchester United, the leader of the Premier League, won the final victory at home."

"The game was full of twists and turns, and at the last moment, Liverpool also had a chance to equalize..."

Losing the game, but also gaining, Rogers on the sidelines can only comfort himself like this, and can only look forward to the fact that the team can recover the game state and recover the disadvantage in the standings in the next game...
