Chapter 1003: Strategic significance

The expansion of the Coimbra City Stadium was officially opened last fall.
However, the capacity of this modern stadium, including the swimming pool cinema fitness club, is still small, and it can only accommodate 30,000 fans.
On June 18, the Group B group match between England and Switzerland took the lead here.
Aldrich walked into the stadium with a swagger, shook hands with the Swiss coach Kuhn, then stood in front of the coach and silently waited for the game to begin.
Since defeating the French team in the last game, England's winning popularity index has jumped to the top of the competition.
Compared to the situation two years ago, although England has become a target, the urgency of the situation has reduced this to a minimum.
In the first match of the group stage, they defeated the French team first. The latter two opponents were weaker and had less resistance to their qualifying.
And after the qualifying, it will be the quarterfinals, further reducing the possibility of being repeatedly attacked.
The game is going to be played one after another, but in the overall situation, it can be said that if Aldridge led England for the European Cup in two years, and two years later is playing the World Cup, then today’s situation will be extremely bad. The World Cup's top 16 situation will be far more difficult and dangerous than the European Cup's top 8.
Aldrich's strategic vision has been cast to the quarterfinals, and in the preparation, he once again emphasized and clarified the changes after Scholes' delay. This is targeted. After defeating France, the qualifying situation of Group A, The fate of England itself has changed dramatically, that is, whether it is the first group or the second group promotion!
With the appearance of England and the Swiss queuing team, the cheers in the Coimbra stadium thundered, and the cheering of fans from both sides kicked off the curtain.
"The second round of the European Cup Group B group match began. The first appearance was the England team and the Swiss team. In this group, the French team and the England team were qualifying and even won the championship. However, after the first round, the French team However, the bottom of the rankings, the England team has been considered to qualify early, because the strength of the Swiss team and the Croatian team, it is difficult to stop the staunch pace of the Xinke World Cup champions to make a big round! Let’s take a look at today’s lineup of both sides, the England team has a staff The change, that is, the defender online captain Southgate was injured and Terry became the main starter.
Goalkeeper: Robinson.
Defenders: Gary Neville, Campbell, Terry, Ashley Cole.
Midfielders: Beckham, Hargreaves, Scholes, Lampard.
Forwards: Irving, Gerrard.
The Swiss team started with 442.
Goalkeeper: Steele.
Defenders: Haas, M. Yakin, Mueller, Spichel.
Midfielders: Wiki, Christine, Huger, H. Yakin.
Forwards: Chapuisat, Frey.
The Swiss team was in the same position as Croatia after the first round draw against Croatia. If they want to qualify, they must at least be unbeaten in the face of France and England! Both teams will be tested today! "
The Swiss team also counterattacked against England. They did not have a positional warfare organization to escape the technical and tactical strength of the mad siege in England's frontcourt. The positional battle of England was not ideal after the opening.
In the World Cup two years ago, people were talking about Irving’s state of being unable to return to the best. In the European Cup, Scholes still did not reach the height expected by Aldridge in the second game.
After his position was delayed, he was required to transfer in the middle and long distance to instigate an offensive to create a threat. However, for a pass over 30 meters, Scholes' five attempts in the opening 15 minutes all ended in failure.
Aldrich looks at the game and will silently pay attention to the player's technical ability to play. Taking the pass as an example, the success of the pass has been good, which means that the state is very good, and the success of one foot is the failure. The big fluctuations are the fluctuation of the state. The success rate is high, and one or two mistakes without interruption are qualified or okay, but if they fail continuously, it is in a bad state.
If he is allowed to continue to pass on like this, it will only make his heart anxious and play worse.
When playing France, the England team was on the same level as the opponent in frontal battles or counterattacks, and Scholes’s status did not see much difference, because the ball rights were not always controlled at the feet of England.
But when playing Switzerland, the England team dominated the scene with stronger control, and the test of this delicate technical work was greater. As if each player was under the microscope to observe, Scholes’ poor condition was also reflected in more obvious.
Aldrich made gestures on the sidelines to allow Scholes to reduce the threat of ball passing in the midfield and backcourt, and to formulate a pass, that is, to do a good team pass in the short and medium distance, so that he can gradually build up confidence. Another successful pass, the team slowly recovered its feelings based on the smooth offensive.
The way forward and midfield are inevitable, and the methods are bound to be different. The striker is very simple, that is, scoring goals, and midfield players must pursue success rate in handling the ball.
Lack of Scholes's straight line in the middle, the England team's propulsion turned into a partial impact and took the sidewalk.
There is room for wing offense. Beckham and Ashley Cole took the ball forward. When the defensive pressure was too great, the wing cooperation was also very particular. Beckham mainly focused on Gerald's retreat. Ashley Cole is more integrated with Lampard on the other side. Scholes will have a wider coverage in the midfield and free movement to intersect to form a triangular pass.
Although Scholes didn't work well, the England side's threat of wing attack today made the whole England fans applauded.
Ashley Cole shocked forward, the Swiss team could hardly stop it, and Beckham's pass from the right to the edge of the dangerous zone was also very threatening.
The two side impacts lasted nearly fifteen minutes, which made the Swiss team increase their defense against the side.
They may not have noticed that, because of the back and forth impact from England's two sides, the horizontal width of the defensive area was torn by the limit width of the field, and their middle lanes were gradually exposed.
In the 29th minute, Ashley Cole caught the ball on the wing and hit the frontcourt. This time, instead of cooperating with Lampard, he directly passed the ball to the front midfield area of ​​the penalty area. Scholes touched the ball at the same time as he drew the ball diagonally, which wiped out the Swiss midfielder Wiki. Outside the penalty area, he took a long shot!
Shoot the ball to the left of the goal with a zone facing the right of the goal.
The goalkeeper Steele flew to the end but failed to touch the ball. He only heard a bang and the ball bounced back on the goal post!
The Swiss team was in a turmoil in the penalty area, Owen cleverly caught the ball landing point, stopped the ball, and shot with his leg!
The defender Yajin blocked Owen with his body, the ball bounced back again, and the penalty area was ejected.
Lampard, who was in sight from the periphery, immediately started a swinging volley for the ball.
Nearly a half-empty goal, Lampard's long-range shot from outside the penalty area deliberately pushed the ball down. The ball shuttled over the crowd's feet in the penalty area and flew into the goal!
"Once, twice, three times! The Swiss team finally failed to withstand the indiscriminate bombing of the England team! Scholes' lack of luck in long-range shots, Owen's supplementary shot was blocked, and finally Lampard gave the ball a final blow. In the goal! The midfielder also scored his first goal in the current European Cup! England led the Swiss team 1-0!"
England fans cheered in the stands, with smiles everywhere.
There is a weird statistic. According to Fleet Street reports, since Aldridge became the coach of the England national team, the number of football hooligans and the number of troubles in England have a more obvious downward trend.
Many golf critics take this for granted.
England is winning, England will not make people worry, the trouble factor will naturally decrease.
Aldridge is like a scheming ambition, even if the team scored, he just smiled and returned to a serious look.
The strength of the Swiss team is average, only second-rate in Europe, the opponents in the qualifiers only Russia and Ireland are the strongest, but in the end it is a group of second-rate rivals.
This match against Switzerland must be won. As long as it wins, the England team will ensure the qualifying of the group. Then, in the final round of the game against Croatia, Audridge can implement a major rotation to give the main players a 7-day break Time to deal with the knockout!
This is the strategic significance of further striving to go further in the European Cup.
In this era of no secrets in tactics, England is dominated by a group of engineers. If it is dragged down by a dense schedule, the more opponents it encounters in the future, the stronger the opponent will be. England is really more powerful than other Europeans, just like the European football in the eyes of English people, one is British football and the other is Continental football.
Before the match, Aldridge gave the team a dead order and must win!
What a joke, the Shinco World Cup champion plays Switzerland, and of course the goal is to and win! Not even a draw!
After the lead, the England team did not relax at all. They continued to strongly press the Swiss team, and the Swiss team started a rough foul in the run across the horizontal defensive line. England’s methodical offensive mode, Scholes in the backcourt After the transfer, Beckham and Ashley Cole advanced into the side, and the side and the middle combined to play deep. This system operated very smoothly. The Swiss team was only excused for fouling when it was tired.
In the 43rd minute, Lampard was knocked down by Wikipedia in a forward-throwing motion with an approximate hug and throw. The referee decisively penalized the foul and gave Wikipedia a yellow card, which was eaten by the Swiss team in the first half. The third yellow card.
Beckham took the free kick. The full moon scimitar reappeared in the rivers and lakes. The ball that bypassed the wall not only fell rapidly but also had a strong arc of rotation. Finally, it went straight to the lower left corner of the goal and hit the inside of the goal post to bounce into the goal. .
This ball made many fans on the scene dumbfounded!
Beckham smiled and ran to celebrate. Today is his first international competition as the captain of the national team. Being able to score a goal is a plus.
It also counts that England has officially entered a new era.
