Football’s First Defender

They are all old foxes on the court. Advocaat knows that Moyes is going to target his weak defense ability, so naturally he will not fall into the set at the beginning! Even if Zenit did need a win! But in the 90-minute game, for Zenit, only one goal is needed to win. Play steadily, don't worry, after all, a draw is only one goal away from victory, if the opponent scores first like in the previous game, then two goals will be even more difficult to chase!

Take possession first! Appropriately give offensive pressure and make use of the speed and flexibility of several technical players in the frontcourt to make a fuss! Strive to use the smallest attack cost to score goals! This is how Advocaat prepared for the first half!

A traditional Premier League team like Everton is actually very similar to most teams in the Russian Super League!

They are all willing to use that kind of tall central defender, who mainly plays physical confrontation; the midfielder has a strong defensive midfielder for full-time defense; the wings are all players with fast horse attributes; the forward is a representative of tall and strong!

But Zenit's tactical style just restrained it. Although there is a traditional and efficient Russian striker like Pogrebnyak in the starting lineup!

But Zenit's real attacking strength is actually the small Kuailing attack group hidden behind Boshen's tall body!

Whether Arshavin, Dominguez, or Denisov!

They are all the kind of existences that can not only hit the goal by themselves, but also break through on the side to create murderous opportunities for the wave god in the middle!

They can also exchange running positions with each other and use small-scale cooperation to create opportunities!

It is precisely with his own quickness to constantly attack the opponent's high and slow that Zenit can make a difference in the Russian Super League, and few teams can match it!

But whether it was Alkmaar or Nuremberg, the league style they faced before was neutral, without obvious ball control style, and it was not the kind of simple high-altitude play!

The style can not be said to restrain each other! But compared to the Russian Super League defense that has played for a season, it is indeed more difficult for Zenit to play, and it is also true that it is difficult to play!

However, the root cause of Zenit's poor record is that the defense is not stable, so they dare not give full play to the offense. It is right to blame Yang Feng for everything, and don't rely on Benzema.

"Advocaat was not in a hurry to attack. After all, even though there were three draws, although it is impossible to determine the qualifying after this game, the probability of qualifying is still very high. If the blind attack leads to an away loss, it will be good for Zenit. It's the worst nightmare!"

"We saw Zenit's full-backs active in the two group games. At the beginning of this game, they were restricted by tactics! Honestly, do your own defense at the back!"

"Although there are opportunities to attack forward, the range of forward penetration is not large, and it is more of a receiving point!"

"Zenit has to rely on its own combination of midfield and frontcourt again, and find a way to forcibly tear apart the opponent's defense!"

"But facing the home team Everton, with two full-time defensive midfielders defending, it is obvious that Zenit's breakthrough in the middle is a bit powerless!"

"It's Arshavin again, wanting to cut in. Even though he was fighting against Baines who was defending him, Arshavin still had the advantage!"

"This ball also has an advantage in starting!"

"but!"

"Phil Neville has already predicted Arshavin's action, come back to defend!"

"Arshavin's forward route was completely blocked. Fortunately, he immediately controlled his body and passed the football backwards, at least retaining Zenit's right to attack the ball!"

The double midfielder combination of Phil Neville and Lee Carsley perfectly limits the possibility of Zenit breaking through from the middle! Even Arteta, relying on his excellent awareness, can block Zenit's threatening pass in midfield!

Everton brought their own head coach's death order in this game! "It's good to keep the tie!"

Of course, if the opponent brings the meat of victory to his mouth, there is no reason not to eat it!

As far as Zenit's defense is obviously not yet a complete system, as far as Everton is concerned today, as long as Zenit dares to fully expose its defense, then several midfielders, and those who are good at dispatching and commanding Arteta will definitely tell the visiting team what cruelty is!

Sometimes football is so utilitarian!

As far as Everton is concerned, as long as there is a draw in this game, they can guarantee a qualifying place, so the last round of expedition to the Netherlands can completely send some substitutes and reserve players!

After all, the Premier League does not even have a winter break. For the team, if they can play one less game, they can rest one more game, so that they can make more adequate preparations for the upcoming Christmas schedule!

"Continue to defend and limit their breakthrough! Hibbert pay attention to your position and concentrate..."

Moyes on the sidelines is still emphasizing the team's defense!

Although he has a greater chance of winning, Moyes also understands that if Zenit scores a goal first, the situation will immediately reverse!

"So far in the game, Zenit has an advantage in possession, but the actual threat to the home team Everton's attack is pitiful!"

"Whether it's Hibbert on the right or Bynes on the left, neither can completely freeze Zenit's wing attack!"

"But relying on my own speed and flexibility, I can always maintain the defensive interference of Zenit's side! Waiting for the defense of my own midfielder to come over!"

"In addition to Everton's two big defensive midfielders, they are all the kind of defensive iron gates that are good at defending and blocking positions. Zenit's offense is always near the penalty area line, so it stops moving forward and cannot be done at all. Go deeper!"

"However! On the football field, any solid defense may be suddenly breached by a star's inspiration. Arshawin's performance on the field will most likely determine the direction of the game!"

"Arshavin, who has been very active since the start of the game, received another pass from Ziryanov!"

"This time, Arshavin is not in a hurry to engage in individual combat!"

"He is waiting for other teammates to move!"

"Bynes has already come up to interfere, but he dare not directly stretch his legs to steal the ball!"

"After all, there was a reckless leg stretch before, and Arshavin successfully caught the opportunity and passed him clean!"

"But this level of harassment can't interfere with Arshavin's control of football!"

"Moved!"

"Arshavin chose to dribble the ball directly horizontally, this time he did not choose to go to the bottom!"

"Bynes followed closely, and at the same time he was ready to stretch his legs to block Arshavin's long-range shot!"

"On the other side, Domingos also came to meet him!"

"Defensive players and offensive players, huddled together in front of the penalty area!"

"Phil Neville wants to go straight up and steal the ball!"

"Arshavin used excellent dribbling to avoid Neville's defense!"

"A misplaced effort!"

"The ball was caught by Dominguez and rushed to the penalty area!"

"Chance!"

"The door is open!"

"A nice rubbing shot!"

"The arc of this ball is great!"

"Howard!"

"The reaction of this ball is really fast!"

"Just jump up and catch the ball!"

"The ball has already turned in from the arc outside the goal, but it was still caught directly by the goalkeeper!"

"The impromptu cooperation between Dominguez and Arshavin, the quality of the ball is beyond words!"

"It can only be said that goalkeeper Howard's reaction ability and jumping ability are really amazing. The ball was caught directly instead of being held out with one palm!"

"It seems that Zenit today will not only have to face Everton's impregnable defense, but also find a way to cross the Five Fingers Mountain of the American goalkeeper with the last blow!"

"At the home court of the strongest opponent in the group stage, Zenit will face the toughest test of this year!"

"It's time to test the quality of Zenit's offense!"

After the fifteenth year, the Chinese New Year is over! I can finally return to the state of watching the football, and two chapters will be delivered on time every day!

Watch the live broadcast of Salzburg at 2 o'clock. The home attack power has always been guaranteed, and we are optimistic about advancing to the next round! At the same time, I feel that Nana is stuck with 2 wins. I guess the process will be very boring! Zenit depends on whether he wants to play or not. I think Fenerbahce may have a greater fighting spirit. Kaizi will definitely play the main league this year, the Bat Army should be able to win!

I don’t look at the car at 4 o’clock. I’m not surprised by the result of the infighting car. Avoid it! I will watch Leverkusen, this game should have a big ball against the ball, and there should be a scene where the two sides attack each other should be good! Excited to watch the game, save chapters by the way!
