Chapter 212 Challenge Walker! Side road rush!
Looking at the changes in the situation on the court, Pearson has already reacted.
However, he did not choose to correct this tactical error immediately, but continued to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.
Because, in his mind, the picture of Ling Feng practicing hard on the training ground suddenly appeared.
This may be an opportunity to explore new possibilities in Lingfeng!
Ling Feng has the speed and explosiveness required by a winger.
Although his foot skills are average, his breakthrough impact is stronger than Vardy!
Especially on the wing where there is more space, almost no one can stop him!
How do you know if he can beat Walker if you haven't tried it? !
So, he asked the assistant coach to come to the sidelines and convey an instruction to the players on the court:
"Pass the ball to Ling! Let him make more personal breakthroughs!"
The head coach's instruction was quickly implemented into the game:
In the fifty-fifth minute of the game, Leicester City completed the steal in the middle, and Andy King once again passed the ball to Ling Feng on the left.
Even if he retreated near the midline to catch the ball.
However, Walker did not relax. Instead, he followed him closely and pressed near the midline.
This is also his defensive habit.
With your own speed, even if your opponent starts first and you turn around to catch up, you can easily catch up with the opponent.
However, this time, Walker met his opponent.
Looking at Walker, who was standing sideways and fighting and retreating, Ling Feng was not polite and directly dribbled the ball towards him with the inside of his foot. In front of him, he kept approaching Walker.
In Ling Feng’s opinion, the skill [Horse Stepping on Meteor] requires constant training and refinement.
And no matter how many fake human walls you pass on the training field, it will not increase your proficiency as much as passing one person in a formal game.
What's more, the man who defended him was Kyle Walker, who was recognized by later generations of fans as "the fastest man in the Premier League"!
“Ling Feng takes the ball from the wing and advances, and Walker is guarding him.”
“These two fast players are finally going to have a head-to-head showdown!”
While slowly dribbling the ball forward, Ling Feng's upper body followed what Mahrez taught, adding some fake moves.
However, after playing in the Premier League for several seasons, what winger has Walker not seen?
Therefore, he allowed Ling Feng to sink his shoulders and sway in the first half, and he remained motionless!
Seeing that Walker did not falter, and Mason next to him also came to help defend, Ling Feng made a quick decision and moved the instep of his right foot outwards, directly making soup!
Although he had seen Ling Feng's speed just now,
but, Walker was still taken aback by his explosive power.
While his thoughts were spinning rapidly, his body was very honest and turned around to pursue him without hesitation.
While squeezing Ling Feng with his body, he tugged at the blue jersey with his hands without forgetting to poke.
Being squeezed and pulled by Walker, the rhythm of dribbling was immediately disrupted.
As the ball was slightly widened by his feet, Mason, who came to help defend, kicked the ball out of the sideline!
Although it was the first one-on-one challenge, I was unable to penetrate Tottenham's hinterland.
However, Ling Feng's breakthrough with the ball was extremely threatening to the naked eye.
In the next ten minutes, Leicester City's main attack direction obviously shifted from the right to the left.
Other teammates kept passing the ball to Ling Feng, and moved to stretch the defense, creating space for him to challenge Walker on the wing.
And Ling Feng also regarded these one-on-one duels as precious sparring opportunities.
Having the number one right back in the Premier League as his training partner, [Horse Stepping on the Meteor]’s skill proficiency will definitely improve by leaps and bounds!
Perhaps because he had just returned from injury, Walker did not dare to sprint with all his strength, so that Ling Feng was able to take advantage and break through him in several one-on-one duels.
However, Walker, who can become England's historical right back, is not someone to be taken lightly.
Although he has not yet transferred to Manchester City, he has received guidance from Guardiola.
However, the 24-year-old Walker is in physical condition at the peak of his career!
Whether it is speed or physical confrontation ability, he is the top player in the Premier League.
What's more, during the preparations, the coaching staff repeatedly emphasized Ling Feng's playing style to the players, as well as his habits, preferred feet and other comprehensive information.
Therefore, he knew that Ling Feng's dominant foot was his right foot, and he also knew that his left foot was rarely used.
As for the inverted winger, the most conventional offensive routine is to cut in along the wing and hit the goal.
In other words, as long as he guards Ling Feng's inward route and prevents him from easily taking long shots, and then uses the help of the defensive midfielder in the middle to squeeze out the space, he can defend Ling Feng to the greatest extent. Peak's breakthrough!
Sure enough, just as he expected, Ling Feng's offensive routine on the left wing was not only cutting inside, but also cutting inside.
In addition to providing personal interference, Walker did not forget to call Mason to come over to help defend.
After several times, Ling Feng failed to break through and was either intercepted or made a clearance.
Even so, Ling Feng, who slowly found the feeling of breakthrough, still reached the left side of the front edge of the penalty area and completed a long-range shot with two feet at a tricky angle.
It's just that under Walker's close defense, he didn't fully exert his strength, the ball speed was not fast enough, and it was basically confiscated by Lloris.
The wonderful offense and defense between Ling Feng and Walker on the wing triggered bursts of exclamations and applause from the audience.
In football matches, in addition to the wonderful teamwork, the one-on-one offense and defense with individual heroism is also an important element that makes the adrenaline soar and the blood boils!
In addition to the fans who cheered and cheered, other Tottenham players on the field couldn't help but express shock when they saw Ling Feng and Walker repeatedly performing extremely fast speeds on the wing. look.
Holy shit!
What exactly did I see? !
Being with Walker day and night, of course they know how fast Walker is and how abnormal he is!
In team training, no one can defeat Walker one-on-one!
Not to mention blasting him with speed!
Even sometimes, Walker will deliberately let his opponent break through him first, then chase back at a high speed that he is proud of, and then intercept the ball with a clean tackle.
However, in front of such Walker, Ling Feng was able to successfully break through and complete the shot many times!
This was incredible to them.
If it weren't for the blue jersey worn by Ling Feng, many Tottenham players would have thought they had seen the No. 11 who once dominated the left wing of White Hart Lane!
At the same time.
Southgate in the stands also had his eyes shining, and his heart was filled with waves.
This kid Ling Feng has actually become stronger than the last time we met!
In addition to being able to organize attacks and control the rhythm like midfield masters like Xavi and Pirlo, he can also be like a true winger, tearing apart the opponent's defense with speed and breakthrough, thereby creating a threat !
my god!
He is only nineteen years old!
Where is his limit? !
And Ling Feng’s terrifying progress made Southgate suddenly have a very tempting idea in his mind:
Should he apply to Hodgson to let Ling Feng Feng will participate in this summer's European Youth Championship? !
Originally, when he came to watch this game, in addition to inspecting the talents of the adult team for Hodgson, he also had the task of inspecting talents for the European Youth Championship.
As the head coach of England U21, Kane and Lingard on the field, as well as Dier on the bench off the field, are all subjects of his inspection.
Originally, with Ling Feng’s role and status in the Three Lions adult team, participating in the U21 game was basically a dimensionality reduction attack.
However, considering the gold content of the European Youth Championship, Ling Feng can also compete with geniuses from other European powers, which also has certain training value.
The key is that if Ling Feng leads the team, coupled with young players such as Kane, Stones, and Lingard who have already established themselves in the Premier League, in the European Youth Championship in the summer, England’s young players The Lions can definitely compete with other strong European teams!
You can even look ahead to the championship trophy!
As the saying goes, a coach who doesn’t want to win a championship is not a good coach!
Of course Southgate also has his own ambitions. In his opinion, if he can lead the team to win the European Youth Championship, his voice and status in the Football Association will definitely increase.
Hodgson is too old after all, and at most he will be able to lead the team through next year's European Cup.
With this European Youth Championship champion, the possibility of taking over Hodgson as the coach of the Three Lions will definitely increase greatly!
Anyway, the European preliminaries and European Youth Championship schedules do not conflict.
What's more, England's European qualifying group is full of rotten fish and shrimps. Even without Lingfeng, qualifying is as safe as an old dog.
Why not let Ling Feng participate in the European Youth Championship, lead the young people in England, accumulate experience in international competitions, and see if he can win a championship? !
Thinking of this, Southgate has made a decision in his heart.
. . .
As the game progressed, the heavy rain over the King Power Stadium gradually became lighter, and eventually the rain passed and the sky cleared.
With Ling Feng's strength on the wing, Mason, who had just come on as a substitute, did not dare to move forward and participate in the attack. Leicester City suppressed Tottenham's passing in the middle to a certain extent.
After all, Tottenham's two frontcourt wingers, Lamela and Chadli, are both technical players who need to hold the ball to be a threat.
And Eriksen, who can reasonably distribute the ball, is closely followed by Andy King,
Tottenham can only look for Kane from the backcourt and let him act as the fulcrum in the frontcourt to help his teammates.
When the game reached the 70th minute, Tottenham found Kane with a long pass.
Tottenham's popular fried chicken leaned against Morgan with his back and tipped the ball to Lamela who came to meet him.
The latter stepped on two bicycles, opened up the space, and shot a cold arrow directly at the top of the arc in the penalty area!
However, this long-range shot was blocked by center back Vasilewski.
Although it did not threaten the goalkeeper.
However, the team still won a chance for a corner kick in the frontcourt.
The set kick is definitely an opportunity to threaten the Blue Fox goal for the suppressed Tottenham!
Because, in terms of height, Tottenham definitely has an advantage.
Central defender Fazio, who is 1.95 meters tall, Vertonghen who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, and Kane who is 1.88 meters tall, all came to the Blue Fox penalty area.
For a time, Blue Fox captain Morgan became the busiest person:
“Watch your own people!”
“Danny, keep an eye on the back!”
"Concentrate!"
And Tottenham only had two full-backs left in the backcourt, Walker and Rose.
These two people are an important reason why Tottenham dares to let other teammates enter the penalty area to grab points.
Because, even if the opponent seizes the corner kick and launches a quick counterattack, it will be difficult to get past these two wingers and directly threaten the goal!
As Eriksen raised his right hand at the corner kick, the Blue Foxes immediately stood ready in the penalty area.
The next second, the Danish genius passed a beautiful curve ball and accurately flew into the sky above the crowd.
Vertonghen, nicknamed "Super Jan", jumped up and shook his head to attack the goal!
"Vertonghen!"
However, perhaps there was still interference from the defensive players around him. This header did not hit the ball, but just missed it.
With a flick of the head, the ball in the air changed its trajectory and flew straight to the back of the goal.
Everything happened so fast.
Goalkeeper Hamer, who was standing in the middle of the goal, couldn't react in time and could only watch the ball fly past him and hit the back of the goal.
Fortunately, right back Danny Simpson was standing in front of the goal line at the back point.
Faced with the incoming ball, he hit the ball with his chest without hesitation, and then raised his legs and feet to make a clearance!
There was only a "bang" sound, and the ball was ejected and flew out of the penalty area.
“Beautiful rescue in front of goal!”
“Simpson’s Bigfoot rescue!”
"Does Leicester City have a chance to counterattack?!"
As the fans screamed, a blue figure rushed out from the front of the penalty area without hesitation!
It is Ling Feng!
The ball did not fly too far, but just flew to the area near the right side of the center line.
The nearby Tottenham left back Danny Rose rushed to the ball without hesitation, trying to control the ball immediately.
However, what he didn't expect was that Ling Feng was faster than him!
While sprinting with all his strength, Ling Feng got ahead of Rose and reached the first landing point of the ball!
Ross, who arrived a little late, was preparing for the worst.
In his opinion, even if Ling Feng gets the ball, he cannot let him pass by him!
However, Ling Feng made a move that surprised everyone:
Instead of stopping the ball, he directly raised one end of his leg and picked the falling ball over Rose's head.
Then, he started accelerating again and rushed past Ross.
The speed was so fast that he didn't even give Rose a chance to foul!
Holy shit!
It’s so fast!
In a state of shock, Ross quickly turned around and chased after him.
However, compared to Walker, Rose's speed is still not enough.
Even if Ling Feng was dribbling the ball, he could only follow the blue supercar and eat the exhaust!
“Ling Feng!”
“Passed Ross!”
"In front of him, there is a wide open space!"
However, just as Ling Feng strode forward with the ball, Walker on the left also came from the side at extremely fast speed!
Because he is already the last defensive player.
If you commit a foul, you will definitely be sent off with a red card.
So, Walker decided to use his body to squeeze Ling Feng's forward path, driving him to the outside to buy time for his teammates to return to defense.
However, Ling Feng seemed to have understood his thoughts in advance. Before Walker could get up, he took the initiative to dribble the ball to the outside.
Under the pursuit and interception of Walker and Ross, Ling Feng's advancing route gradually deviated from the straight line.
Until he reached the right side of the front edge of the penalty area, Ling Feng, who had been looking ahead, suddenly swept the ball towards the empty center with a kick!
What? !
He actually passed the ball? !
There was no one following in the middle.
However, when Walker and Rose turned around suddenly, they discovered that Lingard had already moved forward at some point!
And there is no defensive player beside him!
