Chapter 1011: Offense and defense changes

Aldridge walked into the Alvadra stadium as a warrior. His expression was serious, his eyes were sharp and divine, he could not see signs of excitement or ease, and majesty and dignity coexisted.
The Alvara stadium is full, and the number of Greek fans is far from comparable to that of the fans of England. In terms of external factors, the England team is superior to the Greece team.
The main lineup of the England team who made the advance round is more energetic than the Greek team. The English team is familiar with Lisbon. There is no journey to prepare for here. The Greek group stage is mainly played in the Porto side.
After two and a half years, Aldridge and Rehagel met again on the sidelines. The two coaches shook hands to greet each other, and then came to their respective coaches to stand still.
England is strong, Greece is weak.
World recognized!
However, in the eyes of the two coaches, their respective ambitions and grasp of the focus of the game, will not easily settle the game trend.
England needs to be vigilant and Greece needs patience.
The chances of the strong should be more in theory, but as the Quentin Crisp rule states: hold down the opponent!
The Greek team will use defense to hold England, and then look for opportunities to give England a heavy blow!
If England does not prepare, especially psychological preparation, it will be anxious when the strong attack can not be achieved, which will affect the game.
This is a very delicate game situation.
In the summer heat and passion, the Greek team and the England team entered the field at sunset. The horn of the second quarter-final battle was blowing!
"The Shinco World Cup champion England team and the dark horse Greece team that are attracting attention in this competition are about to compete for the semi-final place. At the Alvadra stadium, this game of disparity between strength and weakness is about to start. Let the main team get a good rest, the Greek team fight with Russia to the last minute, although they lost to Russia, they were lucky to qualify for the quarterfinals, let's take a look at the starting list of both sides.
England 442.
Goalkeeper: Robinson.
Defenders: Gary Neville, Campbell, Terry, Ashley Cole.
Midfielders: Beckham, Hargreaves, Scholes, Lampard.
Forwards: Irving, Gerrard.
The Greek team started with 451.
Goalkeeper: Nicopolidis.
Defenders: Caphis, Setaridis, Dras, Fissa.
Midfielders: Catharanis, Basinas, Zagoraquis, Yannakpolos, Karagounis.
Forward: Charlie Stasi.
The game is about to start, after this game, another team will bid farewell to the European Cup, but we hope that the team that continues and the team that leaves will leave the audience with a classic battle before the end! "
Aldrich reviewed the start of the Greek team in a circle, and there were no unexpected candidates. After all, Greece has limited talents. The selection of personnel in the platoon formation is relatively stretched, and the change is changing. It is nothing more than the team’s tactical play. In this way, the reputation of Rehagel's tactical master is undisputed.
The Greek team's starting line seems to be 451, but in fact this statically balanced formation does not have a reference value.
When they are defending, they are generally 541. If they are carefully divided, they will be dragged by the scavengers to prevent their opponents from penetrating the ball. When attacking, the two full-backs will not have large assists. They will only reach the midfield at most. Acting nearby will not go deeper into the opponent's half, to avoid being exposed on the sidelines after being counterattacked.
The England team's game will be very difficult, because the Greek team happens to be a play that absolutely restrains all offensive football's offensive formations.
Extreme anti-reverse!
541 is nothing special, not every team playing 541 can play the effect of the Greek team, creating a miracle like the Greek team, so the defense of the Greek team is very representative. After all, their players’ personal strength is not Outstanding, the team's overall centripetal force and chemical reaction played a key role.
At the start of the game, the England team kicked off.
Rehagel played up his spirit and concentrated on observing the England team's fighting stance in this game.
He is not afraid of the offensive of the England team.
Every opponent encountered by the Greek team will press them to attack, even if Russia is no exception, they can write offense data of 18 shots and 9 hits on them!
Today's Rehagel is very similar to what Aldridge thought two years ago.
If you are not afraid of your opponent attacking, you are afraid that your opponent will not attack!
Only opponents attack, attack, and then attack.
Fail, fail, and fail again.
When the strong lose their patience, lose their composure and calmness, or continue to increase their offensive strength, the empty space exposed in the backcourt is clear at a glance, and this is the natural soil for the Greek team to fight back!
England!
Attack!
Take the pride of your strongmen to your heart's content, attack and oppress you!
If you can't kill me, I will take your life when you are not ready!
What Rehagel wanted was that England would hand it in after the opening.
England attacked!
Owen topped the front and pressed against the Greek team's back line. Because the Greek team has a scavenger, their position is relatively delayed. They usually dare not create offside, especially because of the large number of defenders and the higher requirement for collective understanding. In case a person slows down one step and is turned offside by the other party, they will fall short.
Coupled with Owen's fast speed and the characteristics of running position, the Greek team is afraid to make an offside in this game.
When Irving pressed up to the front and stepped on the line of the restricted area, Rehagel calmed down and the players on the Greek team were calm as usual.
Behind Irving, Gerald, Lampard, Scholes, Beckham, the four acted with a dislocated asymmetric flat diamond shape, which has both depth and rear protection measures, making the entire frontcourt offensive system The distribution is balanced and flexible.
Ashley Cole's position has just crossed the center line, Gary Neville on the other side is parallel to Ashley Cole's position, and the two full-backs have only crossed the half-foot less than 3 meters.
Scholes also just sorted out the attack in the area in front of the top of the arc.
Behind the head, Hargreaves and Campbell were approximately parallel to the misalignment, and Terry dragged the last.
The England team has also changed today, both offense and defense.
The changes on the offensive end, Rehagel can't see it for the time being, it is impossible to make a conclusion based on the position of the player alone, it takes time to slowly observe.
The defensive end of England's general position of defending players when offensive, let Rehagel look slightly trance, bowing his head and contemplating.
England's double centre-backs did not have a parallel position. It seemed that Terry was behind, and Campbell pushed up.
The march to war pays attention to a camp layout to test the commander's commanding ability, just like Sima Yi in the Three Kingdoms period after Zhuge Liang withdrew his army and only looked at the ruined camp layout of the Shu Army, but gave Zhuge Liang a "Wizard of the World" evaluation.
There is a similar situation on the football field. Rehagal, who has been immersed in this way for many years, only looks at the position of the rear defense position after the opening of England. He can feel it without too much reasoning and thought. Aldridge's tactical talent.
Two and a half years ago, the two played against each other. Greece lost to England. Rehagel did not care about it. At that time, the Greek team was not strong, and there were problems with the dressing room in the team. Later, he cleaned a group of people. , Promoted a group of people, regrouped, and built the team into the fastest time, the time is very urgent, which makes them almost unable to advance to the European Cup, because they lost in the first two games of the qualifiers .
The first 3 minutes of the game passed.
Rehagel smelled a bad breath.
He felt fear and surprise inside.
3 minutes, 180 seconds.
The Greek team has never encountered a ball!
England is passing, passing, passing all the time!
Lampard passed back to Ashley Cole, the latter passed Scholes, Scholes then passed Beckham diagonally, Beckham passed back obliquely to Gerald, Gerald kept the ball Pass the ball back to Scholes, who then passes diagonally to Lampard...
What is England doing?
Short pass indefinitely?
No osmotic pass and running position at all!
The audience in the stands also wondered.
Greek fans booed England, but English fans were puzzled what magic was being imposed on their team today.
As if to lose the courage to play a threatening attack!
I am afraid that only Aldridge is praising England, and Rehagel frowns with anxiety.
In just 3 minutes, England's posture has changed dramatically with what he thought.
That's right, the England team's offense overwhelmed half.
The full-backs are all past halftime!
There were only four players in the second half of his home.
Goalkeeper, double central defender, single midfielder.
Including Hargreaves, England's players in the Greek half are all involved in the pass and the foot is cautious!
At the end of the fourth minute, the England team finally launched a threatening offensive.
Beckham passed the ball to Scholes, who passed directly to Gerald in front of him. Gerald passed the ball diagonally back to do it, followed by a heavy shot from Lampard.
The defense of the Greek team in the first 4 minutes is divided into two parts. The back line will not easily grab, ensuring that the number of defenders in the dangerous zone of the penalty area and the compression space will not give England any space to run.
The midfielders, including the forwards, returned to the half to fight back, the positions are clearly distributed, the side has a defensive defense, the middle has a double back protection, and the striker retreats to the center midfielder area to spare no effort to fight back.
However, no matter how they rob, the actual number of offense and defense is at a disadvantage.
Because England did not push the threat of attack to the front line, to the center of the opponent's big penalty area, as long as the England team does not run forward and does not pass the ball, the number of their fall feet will always be more than the Greek team to participate in anti-rob interception More people!
What Rehagel is worried about is that in these nearly 100 backward passes, the England team's back pass, he didn't care, the back pass, the offensive and defensive situation returned to the original static, as long as the Greek team did not rush out to intercept, The England team is reorganizing the attack.
But England's lateral pass.
That is to say, with Lampard, Scholes, Beckham, and Gerald, passing the ball to pass the ball from left to right, from right to left, and so on, let Le Hagerla The alarm sounded.
The tactical effect of horizontal transfer is to tear the defenses parallel to the defense line, that is to say, the defender line or the midfield line. As the ball moves laterally, they need to move as a whole to compress the defensive space closer to the ball. If the England team Once the transfer is made, a wave of adventurous offensive is forward, then the defense movement of the Greek team is effective, and the defense is not the result. At least this movement process is absolutely correct and effective, but the England team transfers after the transfer, The Greek team must also passively follow the move, how many people are running with the English pass? How many people are forced by the Greek team to move laterally?
This will first consume the physical energy of the Greek team. Compared with the shuttle up and down, it is very intuitive. The Greek team plays the ultimate anti-reverse, and the attack depends on so few people. The physical energy consumption of running up and down is actually not large. England is obviously using it today. Course width to consume them!
At the same time, because Gerald's position is close to Irving, once Gerald catches the ball, it will sound the early warning signal of the entire back line of the Greek team, so Gerald just kicks the ball and can't even find the distance. There will be a long pass to kick the ball back to England's full-back or midfielder. No matter how he passes and who passes, Gerrard can bring enough panic and tension to the Greek team.
What if he stopped the ball and started to break through? What if he cooperates with the teammate who was plugged in or passes to Irving?
In the frequent movement of the defensive line, the defensive air will be exposed inadvertently, although it is not obvious, it can not block the long-range shot of the England team!
Lampard's long-range shot directly hit the goal. The ball was shuttled between the two defenders of the opponent. Unfortunately, the shooting angle was somewhat positive, and the goalkeeper was firmly in his arms.
Then, England retreated and the overall formation remained almost unchanged, retreating back 20 yards, waiting for the Greek team's attack.
