Chapter 1012: Weird data

Although this is not a tactical contest.
The Greek team is the ultimate anti-reverse, but the England team is not a crazy offensive!
Aldrich and Rehagel understood.
The tactical confrontation in this game is the basis for laying the overall trend.
This is a confrontation of tactical discipline and psychological quality.
The Greek team is absolutely subject to Lehhagel’s tactical arrangements. If England loses to the Greek team at this point, any other efforts will be in vain.
At the same time, it is also an invisible psychological war.
Compare the psychological qualities of both sides.
Whoever can't stand the pressure first, loses his calmness, and loses his composure will lose control of the game.
The Greek team will unswervingly defend and counterattack, and will always have just a few players to attack, without letting the defense expose a deadly empty.
Before the counterattack, there is also a foreshadowing.
That is to use their tenacious and solid defense to shape the game situation!
Superficially speaking, both England and Greece are using "control" to seduce their opponents and flirt with them, causing them to lose their calmness.
The seduce of the England team in the frontcourt, they frequently cross the transfer, control the ball power, hesitate to return in a wide range when the ball may be lost or the pass is in a deadlock, and they are not willing to lose the ball. In this process, it is to lure the Greek team. Will the Greek team lose their calmness and collapse under pressure when they do not get the ball for a long time? At a certain point, a player hastily grabbed a tight line of defense to expose the space available to England?
The seduction of the Greek team is that after the defense is successful, they will not be eager to invest in the offense immediately when they switch from the defense. The time for the counter-attack teammates to run out of position, ran out of time, and the various positions of the offensive system are ready. Then, if the opponent loses his calm and madness to counter the frontcourt, their counterattack will be launched quickly. The wind generally passes through the midfield and is advancing In the process, the opponent was panicked and panicked, and then the soldiers came to the city!
It is not only a test of the psychological quality of the two teams, but also the execution of tactical discipline.
Everyone can't defend!
The England team's posture seems extremely oppressive and aggressive in the scene.
There is no doubt that their players are stronger in the team.
When the England team retreated 20 yards and the heavy troops waited for the Greek team to attack in the midfield, Rehagel was no longer surprised but shocked!
The Greek team can only fight back!
In positional warfare, they definitely cannot create good opportunities.
First of all, the creativity of the core of the organization is limited, and secondly, the ability of the player to assault alone can not be expected. In order to protect the defense, the positional attack that advances layer by layer requires more teammates to move forward to create a pass opportunity. The Greek team is not the way to play.
So their offense only died after passing the midfield.
Gary Neville's defensive success, the England team regrouped and returned to the rhythm of the previous organization offensive.
Short pass, horizontal transfer, occasionally steadily forward threatening the opponent's defense line, when the shooting angle is exposed in front of the penalty area and there are teammates capable of long-range shots, they will take a long-range shot, although it is outside the penalty area, but also repeatedly hit Long-range threat!
Aldridge watched the battle with quiet colors on the sidelines.
He is very satisfied with England today, temporarily.
People in the world often say that "the flaw does not conceal one's imagination." This term is definitely hated by the head coach in the football field.
Defects are defects, and must be corrected in a timely manner, and these cannot be ignored because of good results.
The England group stage came out ahead of time. Before that, Aldridge had a fire. The England team came to the stage of the current knockout. The professional quality of the team showed that Aldridge was satisfied.
They firmly implemented Aldridge's tactical arrangements, without any slack, and perfectly controlled the game!
perfect! Absolutely perfect!
Because the offensive of the Greek team simply cannot advance the England midfielder area!
They will always be attacked by England in the midfield area.
England's advantage in the number of midfielders, the offensive and defensive density is amazing!
Both teams must be afraid.
The English team did not dare to press the front line, the Greek team did not dare to invest more troops in the offense.
But under such circumstances, the England team will have an advantage.
Scholes, Gerrard, Lampard, not Beckham, these three alone.
Long-range ability is the first-class level in UEFA!
This is England's advantage.
England did not attack the restricted area of ​​the Greek team, fell in the midfield, consumed the opponent, tore the opponent's midfield line, and came out freely for a long shot!
As time goes by, England will have a second advantage to be activated.
Position the ball!
The England team is accumulating advantages and mentally oppressing their opponents, causing the opponents to panic. When the opponent is consumed to a certain extent, and the transfer frequency cannot keep up with England, it will inevitably take fouls. By then, Beckham’s golden right foot will be there. Use it!
Break the three magic weapons of intensive defense, long-range, positioning ball, personal breakthrough.
England is not good at personal breakthroughs, simply don't!
After playing the game for nearly 20 minutes, they hit 6 long-range shots, 4 feet hit the goal range, shot in the penalty area: 0, personal breakthrough: 0.
Possession rate should set a record for the European Cup!
Close to 80%!
The number of passes, if carried on at this pace, should also set a record!
The Greek team wants to hold back England so that the two sides are at the same level, but now, who is holding back?
The offensive ability of the Greek team is actually very general, pay attention to efficiency, rely on counterattack.
In the 270 minutes of the three games of the group stage, they only shot 30 feet and hit the goal range with 10 feet.
In other words, an average of 9 minutes, they can create a shot, an average of 27 minutes, they can only have a shot to hit the opponent's goal.
And this stat is still higher in the battle with Russia, because in that 90-minute game, Russia is not strong, they shot 12 feet.
Rehagel was calm on the surface, but there was a desperate tremor in his heart.
If England's 90-minute, even 120-minute, is now playing at this rhythm, the Greek team can only beat England by luck!
With luck on them, the England team's threatened long shots all failed to return!
Even after the game, there will be no obvious gap between the two sides' physical performance. The English team does not need to wait for work. The journey is also superior to the Greek team. The current playing method is obviously more expensive. The Greek team, even if it can be two or three Cooperating with the attack to the depth of the frontcourt, forcing the England team to retreat in a wide range of vertical shuttles. In that case, everyone's physical consumption may not widen the gap, because the Greek offense can also achieve the purpose of consuming opponents.
However, Aldridge's defensive layout today is interlocking.
After Terry drags and Campbell tops, Hargreaves will adapt to the direction of the Greek offense center. If the Greek team walks on the sidelines, only two players can pass at the same time. Then England has both full-backs and There is Hargreaves. In the speed competition, the Greek team has no obvious advantage. The England defender does not press forward, defends frontally, guards the space behind him, and pursues the containment of Greece’s penetration.
Greece has less offensive troops, and the center of defense is in the penalty area. The English team not only fully occupied the advantage of midfield offense and defense, but also controlled the situation to consume the Greek team.
To say that the most relaxed person in the England team must be goalkeeper Robinson, who played 30 minutes in the first half. Mo said that he withstood the test of the opponent's shooting. He didn't even take a goal kick!
Irving also disappeared into the view of the audience in front of the TV. However, the existence of Irving made the Greek team's back line must stay in the penalty area!
The Greek team blocked Owen with a scavenger, double guards, and a triangular position. The Greek team did not dare to change this defensive system.
3 defense 1, sounds exaggerated, but it is not.
First of all, one-on-one is definitely unstoppable. What about two-on-1? Maybe, maybe not. After all, Greece’s defender is not Europe’s first-class level. Secondly, remove one to go up to strengthen the midfield interception or control. Then, the England team plugs in after the middle, whether Gerald or Lampard, Even Scholes, the Greek team may be in danger in the penalty area.
The truth on the football field is simple. The closer to the goal, the greater the threat.
This is why England has a long-passing style, which is to pursue the fastest attack and create opportunities in the most threatening areas.
So Portugal and Spain did not take advantage of Greece, the big reason is that they were always eager to hit the offense in the most threatening area, which is the restricted area of ​​the Greek team, and there, it happens to be the most stable defense of the Greek team. zone!
Portugal does not have a top center, while Spain is a weak forward. When the offense is repeatedly frustrated, it is inevitable that it will lose its psychological balance, or it will be crazy to attack and the backcourt will be exposed.
England not only strengthened its strengths and avoided shortcomings today, but also avoided the advantage of the Greek team in terms of tactical height.
Repeated long shots and hitting the goal range will inevitably make the Greek team nervous, but they have no way.
In the strategy against Greece, Aldridge made the Greek team completely unable to see the slightest hope of defeating the English team today!
boom!
The Alvara Stadium exclaimed.
Scholes walked back with his head shook his hair and sighed.
His shot shocked the Greek team in a cold sweat, a very high-quality long shot, but lacking some luck, hit the beam and flew!
The first half ended after Scholes shot the crossbar far away, and the referee did not give stoppage time because the game went very smoothly.
When the whistle sounded, Aldridge turned to the player's channel, his expression was normal, and Rehagel looked very worried. Looking at Aldridge's back, the powerlessness in his heart was very obvious.
"At the end of the first half of the game, England and Greece temporarily played 0:0. This may be a very boring first half. Both teams did not create obvious opportunities. The shot in the penalty area was zero. But there was an order We are surprised that the technical statistics are worth mentioning. The England team completed a 12-foot shot in the first half and hit a goal within 7 feet! This statistic alone has exceeded Portugal and Spain in the game against Greece in the whole game. Statistics, in the 90-minute game, Spain and Portugal have only completed 11 shots in front of the Greek team, only 2 shots hit the goal range, and England, fans who may not watch the game live, will feel that the England team The game was very fierce, but on the contrary, the England team never sent a pass to the penalty area! This is really an incredible game, what is Sir Hall thinking about?"
