Chapter 848: How is the goal made

With this summer, after Southampton let go of Ibrahimovic, Modric and James Rodriguez, the team's entire midfielder has also been greatly affected.
To some extent, there is no Ibrahimovic who suppressed the opposing center back on the front line, and the midfielder has lost Modric and James Rodriguez who can control the ball. Southampton last season That set of play style, it is impossible to run smoothly anymore.
Unless, Bielsa wants to vigorously support Kovacic and Pogba, let these two teenagers take the lead.
However, in the view of the coaching staff, they have unlimited potential, but it will take time to hold up the banner of Southampton's midfield.
Support Suarez in the upper position, and then introduce Fabregas and Di Maria, Southampton's tactics will certainly be adjusted accordingly.
In the past month or so, Bielsa has been constantly experimenting with the team’s midfield configuration by adjusting the formation and changing the lineup, including the International Champions Cup, the Community Shield Cup and the European Super Cup. Tactical play.
He even tried a three-guard play before, but then gave up.
A very important reason is how to ensure the efficiency of the team's oppressive tactics.
Modric and Tony Cross had a long run-in. At the beginning, the pair of midfielders didn't play well, but then the run-in succeeded and the threat came out.
As for James Rodriguez, he has been in the team for many years. Under the influence of his ears, he is naturally more familiar and adaptable to the team's tactics than anyone, and there is no problem in integrating.
But Fabregas and Di Maria obviously don't have much time.
As for the frontcourt, replacing Ibrahimovic with Suarez has been tried in the Premier League last season and has accumulated a certain amount of experience, so there is no big problem.
Therefore, in the focus of the first round of this Premier League campaign, fans all over the world are looking forward to Southampton's new season premiere, and they are all waiting for Bielsa to hand in a summer preparation answer.
"We saw Di Maria's name in the Saints' starting roster. This is the first time that the Argentine superstar has joined the Saints in the past two months. He has not even played a warm-up match before. "
"Prior to this, Southampton officials stated that Di Maria did not play because his physical condition has not fully recovered after participating in the World Cup, and now it seems that he should have recovered almost."
"In this game, Di Maria will partner with Fabregas and Tony Kroos in midfield. Pogba and Kovacic, who have performed well in a few games before, are sitting on the bench. "
"On the front line, Suarez continues to start. This player has performed well in the Community Shield and the European Super Cup. His partners are Hazard and Sanchez. This pair of tridents is known as the most luxurious attacking combination in Europe. , I don’t know if this game can open Liverpool’s goal."
"On the back line, Neuer is standing in front of the goal, with teenager Luke Shaw still on the left."
"During David Alaba's injury, Luke Shaw's performance on the left was also remarkable. The center-back combination was Nastasic and Varane, and the right-back was Danilo. This is not too good. To everyone's expectations."
When the live commentator at Anfield introduced the Southampton players, the fans booed.
But when he introduced Liverpool’s starting lineup, every time he read the name of a player, he received a burst of cheers.
Liverpool’s starting goalkeeper is Mignole, and the back line is Moreno, Scott, Lovren and Glen Johnson.
The midfielder is Coutinho, Gerrard, Joe Allen, Henderson and Sterling, and the single forward is Balotelli.
"In this game, Rogers formed a four-five-one formation. The goal should also be to compete with Southampton for control of the midfield. The frontcourt was to use Balotelli's personal ability to create threats."
Sitting in the chairman's stand, Yang Huan was a little bit nervous when he saw Liverpool's lineup and the position of the Red Army players on the pitch, because he could see that Liverpool's attitude in this game was very pragmatic.
Rogers knew in his heart that Liverpool can't compare to Southampton in terms of cards and strength.
Therefore, he seeks stability!
This game is not a small test for Southampton! One is the first game of the new season, players generally have not entered the league state, their performance will not be too ideal, and there may even be problems.
Another is that this is Di Maria's first game. Although he has been participating in the team's internal training before, no one knows whether he can play his role and ensure the overall tactical operation of Southampton.
However, when he turned his head and saw Henry and Ian Al, and found that these two guys were more nervous than himself, his heart was at ease.
To say that Southampton has won the Premier League championship for two consecutive seasons, and won a Champions League last season, let alone in the Premier League, even in the entire European football world, it has the ability to scare opponents. Capital and chips.
Therefore, it should be the opponent, not oneself, that is worried now.
Thinking of this, Yang Huan felt a strong sense of self-confidence. He firmly believed that his team could!
Also in the chairman's stand, not far from Yang Huan, Raiola and Wang Lei and Gao Ren also sat in their seats.
"You two should pay attention later. Don't stare at your players in the same position. You have to look at the overall situation and see how the Saints players run, move, and pass the ball. In these aspects, they are all Not to lose to Barcelona."
Wang Lei and Gao Ren listened carefully and nodded.
"Also, in football nowadays, oppression is indispensable. Wait for you to pay more attention to see how their players use their movements to achieve oppression when they lose possession of the ball."
Speaking of this, Raiola smiled coldly and disdainfully: "Only those rash guys can rely on their bodies to fight against them and run to oppress them at all costs. Really smart people don't need to do this at all. "
"They use their brains to think, use their eyes to see, use the least running, the least consumption, to achieve the greatest goal."
Wang Lei and Gao Ren nodded.
Young Master Huan told them that Raiola's reputation in the Chinese media is not very good, but in fact, his vision is very poisonous and his stomach is also very predictable. As an agent, they can learn a lot.
It seems that Raiola brought them to Anfield this time, hoping to teach them something.
As the game started, Southampton was heavily pressed, and Raiola also began to introduce the game process from time to time.
For example, when Liverpool's right back Glen Johnson got the ball, and the left winger who was facing the right back, Hazard of Southampton immediately pushed towards Glen Johnson.
But Raiola did not let them pay attention to Hazard, but asked them to observe other players.
Acting almost at the same time as Hazard, Suarez approached Lovren, Di Maria followed Sterling, who was preparing to withdraw, and Tony Cross and Fabregas also stared at Liverpool's midfield for the first time. Players.
This move of all the players was carried out almost at the same time, which seemed very tacit.
When Hazard approached Glen Johnson, the England right-back was gone. He didn't dare to continue to take the ball. He was afraid that Suarez was at the front of the penalty area, he didn't dare to pass back, and he couldn't pass to other midfielders.
So, as a last resort, he can only kick forward with a big foot.
As a result, the ball fell to Southampton's feet.
"This set of high-pressure team tactics in Southampton is not aimlessly full of the court, but is aimed at the opponent's ball players. The players' movements are as uniform as possible, making it difficult for the opponent's ball players to play. Find a safe ball point in the first time, and then make the opponent pass and catch the ball."
When Wang Lei and Gao Ren listened, they nodded.
Following this set of play in Southampton, the most important thing is to cooperate with each other and be uniform.
The so-called defensive skills, physical confrontation, and even running ability are not the most important.
As the game unfolded, the ball rights of both sides switched back and forth.
When Liverpool attacked, Raiola would introduce Liverpool’s offensive issues, such as Balotelli’s disconnect from the midfielder, and also explain why Southampton’s defense worked and what points were targeted.
When the Saints take the ball offensively, Raiola will switch over and introduce the Saints’ offense and Liverpool’s defense.
After the introduction by the Italians and the fact that Wang Lei and Gao Ren also played football, they naturally understood many ways.
Take the Southampton midfielder, for example.
After the opening, Liverpool’s closest goal to Southampton’s goal occurred in the seventh minute. Raiola said that the cooperation between Di Maria and Fabregas and their teammates was still not tacit enough, and they seized the gap for Liverpool. Into the 30-meter area.
But Tony Cross retreated to the front of the line for the first time, while also commanding Fabregas and Di Maria in front.
"Although there is still not tacit understanding, but at least maintain a compact defensive formation, no wonder Bielsa will start Di Maria!" Raiola said with a smile.
Listening to his tone, it seemed that Bielsa really hid Di Maria's meaning as a surprise soldier.
Finally, it reached the 30-meter area of ​​Southampton, but Liverpool still failed to find a chance to pass the ball into the penalty area. It was only halfway through Tony Cross intercepted by Tony Cross and the ball was successfully intercepted. .
After a successful steal, Tony Cross had almost no hesitation, as if he had already figured out how to pass before the steal just now, he made a diagonal pass and passed the ball to the left of the center line. At the feet of Azar.
This long oblique pass made Wang Lei suddenly feel bright.
Too precise, isn't it?
Gao Ren saw Hazard's stop, so beautiful!
The ball touched his foot, as if it was attracted by a magnet, and stopped immediately.
As soon as the ball stopped, Hazard immediately drove the ball into Liverpool's right.
However, this game of the Red Army was mainly based on defense, so it returned to defense very quickly, and the two players immediately surrounded it.
Seeing that Hazard could not break through the defense, he immediately slowed down.
Di Maria leaned in to respond immediately.
The ball passed from the double-team of the two to Di Maria.
After the Argentine caught up with the ball, he happened to run into Joe Allen and immediately crossed the ball to the center.
Fabregas also caught up from behind, facing the ball, which was a long-range oblique pass.
I saw the ball almost sticking to the turf~EbookFREE.me~ in a straight line, passing through Liverpool's midfield, passing between left back Moreno and center back Scotter.
When Moreno reacted and turned and was about to chase, he saw that Sanchez had already swept past him like a wind, catching up with the ball at the front of the penalty area and wading into the penalty area.
"Single-handed! Sanchez!"
Countless people at the scene were so nervous that they raised their voices, staring dumbfounded at what was happening on the court.
After Sanchez single-handedly faced the goalkeeper, he calmly pushed and the ball rolled into Liverpool's goal.
One to zero!
Wang Lei and Gao Ren were dumbfounded!
They have had countless illusions before, how the goals of the European professional league are refined.
But this time, they came to the scene with their own eyes, only to find that it turned out to be much simpler than what they had imagined.
