Chapter 551: Resolution and activation


If a 30-minute training game is used as a factual basis for transforming the team, this is definitely untenable.
Aldrich will not naively think of playing a training game, and elaborate on the point of view, this group of players will be pleased to vote for his five bodies, and, in essence, in order to transform the team, it is not an individual who establishes authority on the team, but to build A powerful team that can play combat power.
Klinsmann posted four pictures on the tactical board. Most of the internationals sitting on the grass saw those pictures, and the expression suddenly became a little depressed.
Perhaps that was not the scene they were willing to recall.
The content of these four pictures is the picture of England and Portugal playing in the European Cup.
The four pictures are all freeze moments before the goal's final blow.
Aldridge needs to communicate with the players to analyze the problems and characteristics of the past team. In the selection of valuable game videos, England and Portugal have the best battle.
First of all, it was a defeat, a reversal that made the English feel incredible!
From 2:0 to 2:3, in addition to Figo's stunning long-range shot out of five goals belongs to the magic stroke, it has almost no tactical analysis value, because let Figo repeat 10 times, maybe it is impossible to score another goal.
The other four goals, whether they are scored by England or conceded, have very valuable analytical value.
Aldrich looked at many players lowering their heads and seemed unwilling to look up at the tactical board. He whispered: "We have limited time, we can not discuss and analyze the details of each game specifically, but I think it is necessary to make you more Deeply understand our own problems and what kind of attack we are the most powerful. The analysis of this match against Portugal four months ago is not to attack your confidence. Now, look up and listen carefully. Keep every word I say in your heart and think for yourself."
After the players raised their heads and looked at the tactical board, Aldridge reached for the first picture.
The content of this picture is the moment before England scored the first goal, Beckham was about to cross from the right.
Aldridge pointed to the situation in the penalty area.
"This goal, the routine seems to be a traditional England side pass. In fact, there is a big difference. Owen and Hiller, the two have been stared to death, but their positions are very reasonable, scattered, respectively Attracted two Portuguese central defenders and created an empty front in front of the goal center. Beckham took the ball from the right and the landing point was at this empty spot. Our forward was not on the landing point, but he created a scoring opportunity for his teammates. Coles accidentally inserted from outside the penalty area and grabbed this point. When he was left unguarded, he put the header into the goal. It was a beautiful goal. Even if it was not scored, this attack was also very exciting."
Whether it is unintentionally or intentionally, in short, the goal of England’s goal is very exciting, because each player has played a role, Owen, Hiller, two forwards made a cover, Beckham assists Coles, McManaman forced the full-back on the other side to fail to shrink back and miss, and the frontcourt players all played their part.
Aldridge pointed to the second picture, which is also the picture before England scored, and the freeze was still the moment when Beckham kicked the ball.
"Our second goal also had a very good cooperation. In the picture, we see that Owen's position is on the wing, but you should all remember that Owen is actively pulling the side and is facing the package of two Portuguese players. The defender unexpectedly turned back and made the ball to Beckham. This was the first point that the Portuguese defense was torn apart. That is, they thought that the limit had killed Owen and squeezed Owen to the side, but Owen could pass the ball. Coming out to his teammates, this disrupted Portugal’s defensive deployment. In the second phase, the Portuguese defense line was in chaos, and the mark had a loophole. Scholes rushed to the middle of the penalty area and attracted the attention of all Portuguese defensive players. Beckham's passing ball fell behind, but McManaman left the ball unmarked and easily put the ball into the empty goal. The focus of this goal is, first, Owen's ball. Second, Beckham Crossing and the cover formed by Scholes’ forward threat, and third, McManaman’s back point outsourcing scoring awareness.

As soon as Aldridge's voice fell, he glanced at the players and gave a thumbs up.
Beckham scratched his head and smiled.
England's two goals, all from his golden right-footed assists, are indeed very beautiful.
For a pure shooter like Irving, the first goal-scoring cover may not be his intention, but just did his job, but the ball did not pass to him.
But the second goal, Owen's "Aura of Light" is extremely crucial. When two players in Portugal sandwiched him and he was about to break his ball, he could pass the ball. This is his whole game In Aldrich's opinion, the most "magic" performance, at other times, being stared to death and restricted, he can only rest. If he has the ability to play, even if England plays 442, then the offense can be derived The changes are even more, but the requirements for the players themselves are too high, they can score and can make the ball, such a comprehensive top striker, in the future, worth at least 30 million pounds to start.
"I think these two goals are typical, telling us what kind of cooperation can better penetrate the defense of the national team's first-class team, and if we want to break through the opponent's door, what kind of game awareness and team cooperation characteristics should we have. Offensive and point-to-point confrontation, we do not have the advantage. To create chaos in the opponent’s defense, we must break the deployment of the opponent’s targeted marking."
The England internationals sitting on the grass sighed.
At that time, they were leading 2:0, they all thought they would easily win the game, Portugal seems to have no resistance, but the result? That kind of scoring routine is not something they are used to or can often play. It may just be good luck to catch two opportunities at the beginning of the game.
Aldridge directly skipped Figo's long-range goal from Adams's crotch into the dead end.
He pointed to the third picture with a heavy tone and said: "This is the picture before Rui Costa assists Pinto in the side pass. This process of losing the ball is very bad for morale, because Portugal has passed a dozen We can’t limit our opponents by passing the ball without passing the ball. The advantage of their ability to pass and control is vividly displayed. But at the last moment, I still have to highlight the problem. When Rui Costa assists, the number of defenders in England's backcourt is more than the number of opponents. A lot more! Especially on the right offensive in Portugal, we have three players in the vertical direction, and there are 2 or can be understood as 3 players in the back defense against Pinto. The result? Rui Costa passes, Pinto From the left to the right, the big air took a local impact and directly shook his head to break the goal. Four years ago, I published an article in the media column to evaluate the game of England’s loss to Germany, especially focusing on criticizing the England team’s defense at that time. In the European Cup, England’s defensive problems are more serious than they were four years ago. Obviously, there are a lot of defensive players. However, the key points are unstoppable! In the case of a larger number of defenders, no one has the consciousness to limit and prejudge this situation in advance. This must be improved!"
When it comes to defense, Aldridge's expression is a lot harsher, let's not mention the offense first, international competition, defensive victory is the main theme of this stage.
He pointed at the fourth picture again, then sighed.
"This drop is even worse than the one just before! Rui Costa has four English defenders in front of him, and then he passes the ball and the only Gomez on the front line receives the ball. Breaking the goal completes the big reversal. This problem of losing the ball is exposed through this picture, I think it is clear enough, the waistline is completely vacuum! Rui Costa's pass rolls out of the gap between the people, and then arrives without any obstacles. The frontline danger zone, and our two central defenders also have a big problem, one was cheated by Gomez, the other was completely watching the show. Gentlemen, I don’t understand, the second goal was lost in the first half , Most players are dead standing defensive position without prejudgment and blocking the pass line awareness, the second half of this ball is the obvious contrast, most people grab a point, and then exposed a larger backcourt, these four bags Even if there is one player of Rui Costa, one of them is standing in front of two central defenders to protect the defender line. I think that Rui Costa’s pass will not easily go to the foot of Gomez, you are very Strangely, in a game, two very different defensive issues were exposed."
Aldridge began to replay England's game in the past year after taking over the national team. Only this game with Portugal made him puzzled. Generally speaking, a top team may have many problems exposed, such as a certain This point is penetrated, such as excessive offensive force weakening the defense, but the pure defensive tactics have two problems that are contradictory, which is very rare.
Just like this game, there is an extreme contrast between the first half and the second half, but the static defense in the first half lost the ball. The second half actively took the initiative to fight or lost the ball. England, what is your defensive strategy?
Beckham raised his hand seriously and said in a serious voice: "Coach, we failed to limit Portugal's ground transmission and cooperation in the first half. Coach Keegan asked us to actively fight in the second half to limit them and make them unable to flow smoothly. Play in the frontcourt."
Aldridge looked up at the sky, slightly speechless.
Sounds like the correct adjustment.
However, to fight actively, you must also have a strategy. If you don't practice at ordinary times, it is useful to rely on swarms of wolves to fight.
If it works, then the defense on the football field is simple, not just running and grabbing!
Without a strategy of active scrambling, the most likely problem is that the entire defensive system itself is chaotic, causing the line of defense to become disconnected and lose a sense of hierarchy, but it is more likely to be penetrated, just like England’s third reversed goal.
To fight, you have to use your brain to fight.
Four of them sandwiched Rui Costa, and finally let the other team score two assists, which was too big.
England fans can't forgive Maradona, all they are thinking about is stealing victory with the "God's hand".
And the strength of the England national team was indeed very strong. If it was a swarm of bees that was directly exploded by Maradona, then England planted it and it was not as good as people. Maradona is a layer of breakthrough. With the best goal in the history of the World Cup, this kind of performance may be rare for a century. Even if Messi copied it later, the two goals cannot be compared at all.
The defense of the England national team of that generation was no problem. It just happened to marry the miracle of Maradona and the "hand of God". Therefore, if the current England national team is ruiled by Rui Costa Break through the layer, then lost the ball, there is nothing to say, can be defeated by the opponent with a seemingly rude and stupid defense, which will raise a feeling of hating iron and steel, gnashing their teeth and scolding them to destroy the Great Wall.
After reading four pictures, Aldridge also finished the analysis. He saw many players solemnly showing a thoughtful expression. He clapped his hands and said: "Okay, we know what is the problem with the defense and how to attack. Power, now is the stage when we solve the defensive problem and activate the offensive power!"
