Chapter 134 Do you think you are that Welshman? ! [Four thousand words combined chapter]
Just when the English generals were feeling depressed, a familiar voice sounded in their ears:
“Guys, cheer up!”
< br>Looking around, I saw Ling Feng clapping vigorously and shouting loudly:
“The game has just begun!”
"We still have a lot of time to equalize the score!"
Three Lions captain Gerrard, who was standing not far away, was not angry that Ling Feng took his "job".
On the contrary, he felt very happy in his heart.
After getting along for a short time, he knew that this young man was always high-spirited and had a competitive spirit that would never admit defeat!
Compared with other young international players with softer personalities, such as Wilshere, Sterling, Chamberlain and others, Ling Feng has a tougher personality.
Among the teams, Henderson also belongs to this type of player.
However, perhaps because there is still Gerrard, the club captain, in the team, Henderson is very quiet both in the locker room and on the field.
On the contrary, Ling Feng, who was selected for the national team for the first time, has no stage fright at all.
He often calls out to his teammates on the court, giving them verbal encouragement and reminders, even though his teammates have played many more national team appearances than him
The most important thing is that he has outstanding strength. , not only can pass the ball to teammates, but is also willing to actively defend in the frontcourt.
No matter which national team or club team you are in, there are factions.
However, the strong always deserve respect.
What's more, who doesn't like a midfielder who can feed the forwards when he advances, and can return to defend and press when he retreats? !
With Ling Feng's stunning performance in this World Cup, his status in the locker room has long changed.
No matter which faction they are, they all want to bring Ling Feng into their faction, thereby increasing their say in the locker room.
Gerrard is also very optimistic about Ling Feng's prospects in the Three Lions.
He even talked privately with Hodgson, and Ling Feng had a natural leadership quality.
This young man can take the initiative to stand up when the team is in adversity, motivate his teammates, and boost the team's morale.
Not every player has this kind of responsibility and sense of responsibility!
Perhaps, after Rooney, Ling Feng will be a new leader to lead the Three Lions forward in the future.
Of course, those are things for the future.
Now, what they have to consider is how to stimulate the team's desire to win and compete with Brazil!
Thinking of this, Gerrard also clapped and raised his arms, and echoed:
“Ling is right!”
“The game has only started five minutes, this It means we still have 85 minutes to equalize the score or even take the lead!”
"So, move your damn butts and run!"
With Ling Feng's encouragement and Gerald's loud scolding, the confusion on the faces of the Three Lions generals receded slightly.
Instead, it is determination!
Hodgson, who was on the bench on the sidelines, had a sad look on his face.
Originally, before conceding the ball, Hodgson planned to put on a show of strength and compete with the Brazilian team.
However, losing the ball so quickly was completely beyond his expectation.
He also realized that his tactics were not strong enough to protect the team's right wing!
The most urgent task is not to lose the ball again in a short period of time!
Once Brazil scores another goal, the team's morale will definitely suffer a major blow.
Then, this game is likely to turn into a massacre!
Ever since, Hodgson turned his head and whispered a few words to the assistant beside him.
The latter suddenly stood up from the coaching bench, came to the sidelines, and called Ling Feng, the commander on the field, to the sidelines.
"Ling, you ask Jamie and Raheem to retreat to the center circle, and you also retreat to the midfield. We can't concede any more goals, understand!"
" Understood.”
As Hodgson made tactical changes, the two wingers, Vardy and Sterling, retreated directly to the full-back position, and Ling Feng also retreated to the midfield, playing with Gerrard and Henderson. Position parallel to assist the midfielder's defense.
The Three Lions' formation changed from 4231 to 451, and they obediently launched a defensive counterattack.
Facing the menacing Selecao, there is no shame in playing defensive counterattack!
With the entire formation retreating significantly, all members of the Three Lions retreated to their own half.
Ling Feng's retracement allowed Henderson to leave his position in the middle and approach the right wing to closely mark Neymar.
Coupled with Sterling's return defense, as soon as Neymar gets the ball, two people will press him.
Of course, Neymar is not the type who won't give up dribbling easily when faced with heavy marking.
Taking the ball, dribbling and creating threats is his playing style, and it is also the Samba DNA engraved in his bones!
Seeing Henderson following him all the way like a piece of brown candy aroused his desire to dribble.
When Henderson came forward to press, he did not pass back immediately. Instead, he deliberately kept the ball in front of him, and then used his extraordinary foot skills to pass him over and over again.
However, Henderson, who repels the beauty of the world with his eyes, will not let him get used to it.
When Neymar tried to pass through his crotch again, Henderson put a force on his shoulder and knocked him to the ground.
Accompanied by a very realistic scream of "ah", the referee's whistle sounded in time!
The referee came to the "crime scene" immediately
"Hey, give this rough guy a sign!"
Looking at the referee sitting on the ground When the referee made a hand gesture to Neymar, Henderson didn't even look at him. He just patted his shoulder and explained to the referee:
"What you saw, I didn't make a move, it was just a reasonable confrontation!"
Since the nature of this foul was just a common foul, and it was the first time, the referee did not play a card to Henderson. He just gave a verbal warning:
"The action is too big, stop it!"
"Okay."
Nodding to the referee, Hender Sen then slowly backed away.
He doesn't speak Spanish.
Therefore, Henderson just stared at Neymar without saying a word, seeming to say to him:
“If you dare to show off in front of me again, I will continue to fuck you. !”
Even without speaking, Neymar, standing in front of the ball, could clearly feel the “message” sent by Henderson through Henderson’s menacing death gaze.
What Neymar is not afraid of the most are players who talk trash.
Because in Brazil, all the opponents he easily passed would use trash talk to cover up the embarrassment and anger of being played by him.
However, he is really afraid of ruthless characters like Henderson who are ruthless and don't talk much.
This kind of player can be defeated.
But it will never be destroyed!
Sure enough, after being intimidated by Henderson, Neymar also restrained himself a little and did not dare to continue to show off too much in front of him.
In Neymar's view, he wants to lead Brazil to win the Powerful Gold Cup on his doorstep.
If he angered his opponent by dribbling too much and was tackled off the field, how could he help the team win the championship? !
As a result, he reduced the needless display of skills and passed more passes.
Neymar plays more reasonably and is still a huge threat.
However, England's tactical change of increasing the number of defenders on the right has achieved significant results.
At least Neymar's breakthrough space on the left has become smaller, and he cannot calmly cooperate with Marcelo who comes in from behind.
As the offensive on the left quieted down, Oscar, who was responsible for organizing and dispatching in the middle, had no choice but to distribute the ball to Hulk on the right.
Compared to Johnson on the right, Bynes, the left back, is both offensive and defensive. He is not tall, but has good speed and confrontation ability. Of course, he still couldn't bear it in front of Hulk, whose physical fitness was explosive.
Fortunately, Vardy's return defense greatly reduced his defensive pressure.
Vardy is not tall and strong.
However, his excellent core strength allows him to not fall behind in the confrontation.
In front of Hulk, who is as strong as an ox, he is like a hyena, fighting repeatedly and constantly harassing his opponents.
Coupled with Ling Feng's assisting defense in the middle, Brazil's two wing attacks were restricted to a certain extent.
Oscar in the middle can only try to pass some penetrating through balls to find Fred in front.
However, the latter has a stronger sense of smell in front of the goal, and neither speed nor confrontation has advantages.
Often as soon as he gets the ball at his feet, he is squeezed by Smalling or Cahill and loses the ball.
As time passed, Oscar did not pass the ball to him, but patiently looked for better passing opportunities.
As Brazil's offensive pace slowed down, England finally withstood the onslaught in the first fifteen minutes of the game and could take a breather and control the ball at their feet.
While running in the backcourt to receive the defender's pass, Ling Feng observed the openings in the opponent's formation through his [God's Vision].
As the overall formation pressed forward, there was a lot of space in Brazil's backcourt.
The first step of defensive counterattack tactics, "defense", has been achieved.
Then, the next step is to fight back!
In his opinion, Brazil's defense line is not impeccable.
Except Thiago Silva, the other three are offensive defenders.
Especially the two wingers, Marcelo and Maicon, are the kind of super full-backs who are one-stop on the wing.
However, compared to Marcelo who was at his peak, Maicon, once the "world's number one right back", has become the weakest link in this defense line.
Since suffering a meniscus injury in his right knee in 2011, he has been plagued by injuries frequently in recent years, and his competitive status has declined significantly.
Once professional players pass the age of thirty, their physical functions will decline significantly.
The speed and physical fitness that Maicon was once proud of have also declined significantly.
In order to avoid the situation where he goes forward to assist and then cannot come back.
Scolari specifically asked him to push forward less and stay in the backcourt as much as possible to help defend.
In the pre-game tactical meeting, Hodgson emphasized that Maicon on the right might be their breakthrough point.
Although Vardy, who serves as the starting left winger, is not as fast and personal as Bell, who is stepping on the colorful clouds.
However, today’s Maicon is not the world’s number one right back who swept across Europe with Inter Milan in 2010!
Worth a try!
Ever since, when England was in possession of the ball, Ling Feng moved to the left wing and approached Vardy to cooperate.
In the 25th minute of the game, after Ling Feng retreated to the midfield to get the ball, he took the ball two steps forward and then passed the ball diagonally to Vardy on the left.
The next second, Vardy heard a familiar voice ringing in his ears:
"Jamie, pass him!"
Hearing this, Vardy seemed to have been injected with a shot of cardiotonic, his eyes sharpened, and he pushed the ball to the left with his right leg without hesitation.
Immediately afterwards, his legs kicked hard, and the whole person quickly started to follow!
One makes soup!
It seemed that Vardy would choose to make soup directly, and Maicon was slightly taken aback.
Fortunately, his rich game experience allowed him to take action without hesitation and pull Vardy to the ground as he was about to run by.
Beep!
The whistle sounded.
Ling Feng, who was nearby, immediately stepped forward to put pressure on the referee.
“Hey, he blocked an advantageous advance! He should be given a card!”
However, the referee simply waved his hands, indicating that this was a very normal foul and could not be considered a foul. Give cards.
When he came to Vardy, he stretched out his hand to pull him up. Ling Feng did not forget to whisper to him:
"That's it!"
"Let's hit the wall more and cooperate. Get behind him."
Hearing this, Vardy didn't speak and just nodded.
This set kick on the left side of the frontcourt was taken by Ling Feng and flew directly to the back area of the penalty area.
However, the first hit was grabbed by David Luiz, who pushed the ball cleanly out of the outside of the penalty area.
Sterling grabbed the second spot and fired a volley without hesitation.
But he used too much force and did not suppress the ball. It flew directly into the stands.
Although the shot was outrageous, it was England's first shot of the game.
It’s not good, but it’s a start.
Next, the two sides entered a stalemate.
Being heavily targeted on the left, Neymar began to wander to the center, switching positions with Oscar.
However, no matter where he went, Henderson followed him closely and did not let him leave within his three-meter range.
Moreover, compared to the wings, the defense in the middle is more intensive!
As long as he dares to take two more steps, he will be double-teamed by Ling Feng, Henderson and Gerrard.
Neymar, who doesn't believe in evil, directly greeted the man.
When he had just passed Gerrard, whose path was blocked by Ling Feng.
His foot paused, and Henderson stretched out his foot from behind to poke the ball to Ling Feng's feet.
"Jamie!"
The latter directly put his foot to the ground and found Vardy on the left.
As soon as he got the ball, Brazil's right back Maicon came forward.
Vardy once again got the opportunity to challenge the former world's number one right back!
Maicon stared at Vardy's feet with all his concentration.
Do you think you are that Welshman? !
However, just when Maicon thought that the opponent would start to make soup from the outside again, Vardy did not do so. Instead, after advancing a few meters with the ball, he suddenly knocked the ball back to the center. !
Maicon turned his head suddenly.
As the ball rolled with his eyes, he saw that the person receiving the ball was none other than Ling Feng, who had come to the middle to receive the ball at some point!
In the flash of lightning, Ling Feng directly passed the ball behind him without stopping!
Oops!
Maicon reacted and immediately turned around to chase after him.
"Beautiful pass!"
"Ling Feng and Vardy hit the wall and hit the ball behind Maicon."
However, Maicon's speed was destroyed by injuries. It's amazing, plus Vardy had the advantage of starting the ball first, getting ahead of him and catching up with the ball.
Under the pressure of Maicon behind him, he didn't even raise his head and directly used his left foot to pass a ground-level cross into the penalty area!
Sturridge, who was outflanking in the middle, quickly accelerated, trying to grab the first place for the cross from between the two central defenders.
However, the ball couldn't get past Thiago Silva who was in position at the front point!
Faced with the incoming ball, the Brazilian captain kicked the ball directly out of the sideline with a big kick!
