Chapter 72: Yang Feng's stunning performance (1)

Before the half of the game, Shirokov's red card really caught Zenit by surprise!
Including Ed Wo Carter, who already thinks that the promotion is likely to belong to him, is stunned on the sidelines!
10 to 11, still in the away game, facing strength may only be slightly weaker than himself, but it is definitely a strong team of the same strength level!
For the entire half of the game, for Zenit, who was not particularly good defensively, the second half was definitely not an easy game!
Ed Wocart could only take a short 15-minute halftime break, forcibly changing some of the second half tactics made before the game!
First of all, of course, it is to replace the defender. The single arrow Pogrebnyak became the victim of Schrokov's red card. After all, his tall body may have the lowest effect in defense!
Fernando Rickson went into battle to fill the midfield defensive position after Schrokov's exit!
The other personnel have not changed much, but Dominguez was urged by Ed Wocart to strengthen his defensive running in the midfield, and use up his physical energy as much as possible. Don’t hesitate, it looks like Ed. Vocat has decided to replace Domingos after a certain period of time in the second half!
Everyone was told to fight back because of Pogrebnyak’s end. They must play more deep space on the wing and have the opportunity to shoot long distances. Don’t hesitate. Cannot invest more people, can only choose some opportunities that appear outside!
Denisov and Arshavin will be Zenit's main counterattacks in the second half, and they can only rely on their personal abilities to complete the counterattack!
Others must ensure that when they are in a defensive position, they must attack appropriately and never leave too much space for their opponents!
Ed Wocart explained a lot in the midfield. After all, it was such a critical second round of the knockout round. The head coach, including the players, did not want to affect the final result of the European war this season because of a red card!
Shirokov actually apologized to everyone when all the players first entered the locker room, but Yang Feng and Skrtel explained that their opponents' performances at the actor level were regarded as a relief for Shirokov. Everyone was professional. Players, will not say anything cold!
The second half of the game is about to start. For all Zenit players, the last 45 minutes is definitely a fierce hand-to-hand battle!
"Both players are back on the field, and the second half of the game is about to begin!"
"Although the home team Villarreal now says that because of away goals, they have to win another 2 goals to advance, but they dominate the home court. Secondly, the home team showed a strong suppressing power throughout the first half. It also caused a foul by Zenit player Schrokov at the last minute of the half. The red card came off, one more player and a two-goal difference was not impossible!"
"The visiting team Zenit originally held the half-time draw because of the huge advantage in physical fitness. The second half may be their moment of force. They have all entered the next round of the knockout with one leg, but now it is because of Shiroko. My husband’s red card was dragged by Shengsheng on the other leg, and even the whole person may be dragged back! The game is full of suspense again!
"With the start of the referee's whistle, Zenit kicked off the second half of the game and officially began!"
"I have to say that the referee's penalty scale in this game is absolutely beneficial to the home team. During the intermission, the playback from other broadcast angles shows whether Schrokov's goal is worth a red card. Controversial! It may even be a good tackle!"
"In contrast, Villarreal's previous foul action is the home team. If the penalty scale is the same, Zenit should not show a red card, facing the situation of one less player now!"
"Now, it's really going to test Zenit's own defensive toughness!"
"This kind of confrontation of the same level of strength, one less player, is still on the away game. Although Zenit only needs to ensure that he will not be netted by two goals at halftime, everything depends on the performance of the players of both sides!"
"On the other hand, before the start of the second half, Zenit made a substitution adjustment!"
"Edvorkat did not stingy with the substitution quota in his hand. He was the first to be forced to play his first card. The Dutch international Fernando Rickson came off the bench and replaced Zenit's frontcourt fulcrum. Pogrebnyak who contributed a goal in the first half!"
"This substitution is to sacrifice one's offensive ability in the frontcourt to ensure the defensive hardness of the midfield and backcourt!"
"Fernando Rickson, himself is a midfielder with excellent defensive ability. In the previous games, he mostly played as a substitute to strengthen the defense in the final stage of the game to ensure that the team wins the game smoothly! "
"Actually, we look at Zenit's bench list. Almost only Fernando Rickson is a player with excellent defensive ability. The rest of the benches are almost all offensive players with strong and weak defenses, only Korean players. Kim Dongjin and Lee Hao still have certain defensive abilities, but in this top-level game, it is really unknown whether the Koreans' physical fitness can withstand this kind of confrontation intensity!"
"Anyway, although these two are the direct line players that Edvard Carter coached the South Korean national team and then bought, after Edvard Carter gained a foothold, these two players, Li Hao, have basically been on the bench. After Jin Dongjin introduced the full-back Hill with stronger attacking ability in Zenit, he gradually lost his main position!"
"Ed Wo Carter's team building ideas are extremely clear, the core is offense, relying on offense and strong suppression to solve the problem, the offensive ability of the players in all positions are very good! Even the two central defenders are big killers in the set ball. In the free kick and corner kick tactics, both have a good tactical position and have a strong scoring ability!"
"But in this game, without enough full-time defensive players, Zenit may have to rely on everyone to concentrate on defending now!"
"Because there is no interference from Pogrebnyak in the opponent's half, Villarreal is now almost fully pressed. The central defenders are all near the midfield to receive the team's pass. , Make your own contribution in the offense!"
"Zenit retreats to his own half, tightening the fence firmly, setting up the bus, and defending his formation in front of the penalty zone line!"
"Villarreal continues to stick to his strengths, and the advantages of the two sides continue to play!"
"Moreover, due to the fact that the opponents have missed one player, the two full-back Spanish international left-back Capdevila and this season's new right-back Angel are more active than those in the first half and participated in the attack. The degree is stronger!"
"Zenit's two wing defenses are under tremendous pressure!"
"Arshavin and Denisov are both forced to return to the penalty area to participate in the defense because the opponent's full-backs have penetrated too deeply!"
"Cazorla took the ball from the wing and tried to break through, attracting multi-player defense. After finding that there was really no room for breakthrough, he chose to pass back to Marcos Senna in the middle!"
"Zenit's current midfield defense, although the density is not much different from the first half, but due to the increase in the number of people invested by Villarreal, compared with the defense on the field, the gap in the middle seems to be bigger now!"
"Marcos Senna, after receiving the return pass, he directly chose to break with the ball. Domingos was on the other side at this time. Facing Marcos Senna's breakthrough, Timoshchuk could only intercept him! "
"After all, Marcos Senna also has a good long-range shot ability, Zenit still can't let him have the opportunity to kick the kick!"
"But Tymoshchuk's attack resulted in an even bigger gap near the penalty zone line!"
"Sure enough! Marcos Senna, a straight kick! Passed an advance amount and pushed the ball directly into the open space in front of the penalty area!"
"Matthias Fernandez also understands it, interspersed directly from the other side and got the football!"
"But Fernando Rickson, who just came on the field, did not lose his position~EbookFREE.me~Following Fernandez firmly and not letting him make the next move!"
"At such a location so close to the penalty area, the defenders are so fast that they will not give Fernandez more time to test!"
"Fernandez also understands this truth and did not waste time. After taking the ball, he directly chose to jump from the right side. Fernando Rickson also retreated. In the process, he gave Fernandez a physical confrontation and let him move under pressure. !"
"Because of Rickson's close follow-up to the defensive stick, Fernandez does not have a good space and timing to hit the goal, but!
"I didn't force a direct hit, but chose to pass the ball directly to Nihat in the penalty area!"
"Nihart retreats to catch the ball!"
"Stop the ball, turn around, hit the goal directly, the action is done in one go, there is no extra action, everything is clean and neat! This is also Nihart's style, never sloppy, it is the simplest way to quickly hit the goal to create the possibility Great shooting opportunity!"
"but!"
"Zenit’s central defender Yang Feng, although he could not restrict Nihat’s catch, he still kept the limit on Nihat. For this ball, Yang Feng reacted extremely fast, turning around and quickly swinging his legs at Nihat. When he hit the door, he already jumped forward and blocked a certain angle with his body!"
"This kick hit Yang Feng directly, and did not pose a threat to the goalkeeper. Yang Feng's second reaction was also extremely fast. He directly blocked the football with a big foot and cleared it!"
"Today Yang Feng's competitive state is extremely good, but such a young central defender, in such a high-level game, or in the adversity of one less player, can he always maintain his state? Let's wait and see!"
