Chapter 188: European style pioneer

At this time, the broadcast shots in the Premier League are basically close-up shots, but at the beginning of the season, Aldridge proposed to the live broadcast agency to set up a long-range shot, so six cameras were added around the Lion’s Cave Stadium, and the machine was on the stadium stand The top of the stadium was originally erected, and the stadium stands were not high, with a capacity of less than 20,000. One can imagine what a narrow stadium is.
Looking down from the sky, the Lion’s Cave Stadium feels weird, but the live broadcast scenes are much richer. From the farther scenes, you can clearly see the players’ intersecting routes, which makes the game screen more rich.
Originally in this era, the player’s personal ability was more prominent. The close-up lens can capture the delicate technical display of the player’s feet. However, Millwall played the whole, and their football beauty is only partially invisible, and the live broadcast last season has already felt Difficult, because Millwall's game rhythm is too fast, the lens can't keep up, so when the long-range lens covers a larger area of ​​the stadium, Millwall's football style immediately aroused the outside world.
like what?
It looks like a football played during a game. The ball passes quickly. The ball is sent back and forth, left and right, so that the ball is still in the left half of the second before the next moment, and it will go to the right half in the next moment. After three passes and two downs, he came to the other party's door.
The center of conduction is Pirlo.
Arsenal midfielder Pratt's running ability has begun to decline, and he can't defend Nedved alone, so Vieira must also delay in defense. Mason alone is not enough to affect Pirlo. Bo Gokamp's support in defense is even more limited, so Pirlo can calmly dispatch back and forth.
Schneider and Capdevila turned in assists in turn, and Millwall's pass-and-court match screamed in front of Arsenal.
Shevchenko and Larson's crazy empty cut in the running position almost caused the Arsenal defenders to break their waists.
But Arsenal are not weak either. They organized a quick counterattack as soon as they turned from defense to counterattack. Counterattacks are often initiated from the sidelines. As long as they are available, they will never hesitate, and they will definitely pass forward.
The two sides launched the offense by relying on Dickson and Winterbourne to go straight up and down. The players in the frontcourt were Mason or Bergkamp, ​​but more importantly, Wenger let three defenders in the back defender take turns.
Boulder, Adams, Keon, and three central defenders, there will always be one person in the position battle to rush to the frontcourt, playing a role from tandem to shooting into the penalty area, all of which can see the figure of one of them.
But today their central defender was in trouble with their tactics. At Pirlo in the midfield, Aldridge gave him a simple defensive task. He stared at the opponent's central defender. Who plugged into the midfield and you Just look at the timing to break their catch.
To say that Arsenal have changed since Wenger took over, except for the change in football style, the formation position is basically the old routine, 532.
This is obviously not the ideal formation of Wenger, but when he first arrived, if he wanted to stand in the locker room, he would certainly not be able to move the main position of many people. Putting Vieira on the upper position is already a limit. Arnell, who is transferred in winter Cardu is still sitting on the bench, and Pires is only in the process of gradually replacing Mason.
Therefore, the five top defenders on the back line must appear, but Wenger provided changes to his tactics, so the three back defenders were released, with a high degree of freedom. By tacit understanding, it is not difficult to insert assists in turns. As for what they do in the frontcourt, whether it is coping, organization, or scoring, it is up to them to play freely.
It must be said that Wenger's approach activated Arsenal's passion, and their talents were released, and to a certain extent, it was a coincidence. If he let Adams go to the midfield directly, obviously Adams would not be willing to Changing his position allows Adams to start as a central defender and then stride forward with a meteor during the offense. Adams is pleased to take the lead.
So in the attack of Arsenal, we will see a very strange scene. Bogkamp is impeccable in taking the ball in the frontcourt, whether it is a short pass or a long pass, a ground ball and a high altitude ball, as long as he runs to the position and uses his feet Unloading the ball has the beauty of four or two pounds, but midfielders such as Adams or Boulder rushed to catch the ball. Sometimes a very simple short pass, they can all stop the ball. The ball is two meters away...
Because of this, both Pirlo intercepted properly and their lack of ability to handle the ball, today Millwall successfully restricted the tactical characteristics of Arsenal's central defender.
As a result, their offenses were increasingly on the sidelines. Bergkamp was very hard and had no skills to speak at the foot, but Millwall’s defender did not eat his suit and never rushed to grab. The frontal defense tried to slow down his Rhythm, stuck in position and then waited for Bergkamp to make a choice. Wright rushed ahead and could not form an effective threat.
Bogkamp tried to break through after failing to penetrate the ball three times. He had just passed Capdevila, but was easily broken by Southgate. After Capdevila received the ball, he quickly moved forward along the side road. The ball was passed to Pirlo, who then passed the ball diagonally to the right after stopping the ball. On the other side, Schneider received a long pass from the front of the penalty area. Trezeguet pulled the ball from the penalty area to welcome the ball. After the ball was thrown, the ball was given to the left rear. Shevchenko, who was inserted into the penalty area, just arrived, rubbed his shoulder with Keon, and then stopped the ball in the chest. When the ball landed, it was a kick.
Keonchen tackled the ground, Shevchenko was kicked to the lower leg and slammed into the penalty area. He endured the pain in the lower leg and looked back at the referee. He saw a whistle blowing in the mouth of the referee and a finger kick. Point, then went to Keon and took a yellow card.
"Penalty! Millwall got a penalty. The penalty came too suddenly, and the camera seemed to be unable to keep up. Millwall's attack was too fast, Andy, did you see it?"
"I didn't see clearly either. Capdevila and Southgate completed a wonderful joint defense. Capdevila forced Bogkamp to make a breakthrough, but when he was passed, Southgate was just right. After killing off Bergkamp's ball from behind, Capdevila caught the ball to fight back. The ball was transferred to the right after Pirlo's diagonal pass, and Schneider unmarked a foot. Accurate long pass, Trezeguet headed back from the penalty area to ferry, Shevchenko diagonally inserted into the penalty area rushed over Keon's defense, forcing Keon to choose to shovel because he had lost his position , But unfortunately, he didn't shovel the ball, this penalty is not controversial."
"How fast is this attack? We are used to counterattack when Millwall hits the empty space behind his opponents. Their players have nothing to say about the speed, but this way it seems that the speed is faster by transferring the ball. I think, from the defense to the defense If Shevchenko is fouled, the whole process should not exceed 10 seconds, and the lens should be given a panoramic shot, so that we can see the whole process, how Millwall penetrated the Arsenal line."
After the penalty kick was taken, Keon was annoyed at Shevchenko who fell to the ground. He thought that the opponent was too soft, so how could he fall?
Shevchenko was also irritated, and his calf was still hurting, and immediately got up and quarreled with Keon.
The two players gathered together, and finally the two captains came forward to separate everyone. Adams and Southgate separated their teammates and exchanged two sentences. Before the separation, Adams pushed a head of Southgate.
Southgate didn't care either, turned and ran towards the backcourt.
For players of this era, especially players in England, conflicts on the court are commonplace, and actions like Adams pushing Southgate’s head are more like a common action between buddies, with no intention of infringement. In it, the referee will not bother, the two are still the national teammates and defense partners.
Therefore, fans of this era also hate the performance of face-covering, falling and other actions on the stadium in the future.
Larsson scored a penalty and opened the record for Millwall. In the 40th minute of the first half, the home team took the lead.
Wenger, wearing glasses and a club sports coat, sighed in frustration.
Wenger and Aldridge are both pioneers in the tactical style of the Premier League. Their coaching style is Europeanized in the eyes of the English, just as there are two kinds of players in the eyes of the English: English players and European players, Beckham and Giggs. Belong to the latter, and like Keane, Nedved is an English player in style. European players play more cunningly, or smarter, and rise to the team's tactical style. The European style is to pay attention to the ground.
However, subject to Arsenal's previous tactical routines, Wenger could only watch the food. At least it was not his intention to let the central defenders rush all the way to respond and break the door. Who made the defense line have three absolute main defenders.
In terms of team formation flexibility, Millwall is not as good as Arsenal, it is like a spring, defense is to compress the whole, and then the power is released during the offense. Compared with the offensive routine in the dead position, from the backward The previous overall advancement was more able to tear the opponent’s defense in the pass. Millwall was not compressed enough because they took the initiative. Arsenal’s attack could not suppress them and forced them to shrink. Arsenal’s short board was not in the attack. Balanced, two wings can't fly, lack arms and legs.
Where Bergkamp goes is basically only the side that can be beaten, so sometimes the central defender rushes up and dribbles the ball in order to pull the opponent's defense, but this is obviously not a long-term way. Boulder is now 35 years old, and next season, Wenger will make the formation more balanced.
Arsenal's flaws were discovered by Audridge when he studied his opponents. Although Arsenal in Wenger's hands are still based on the Premier League in counterattacks, Audridge is really not afraid of the counterattack. At least in absolute speed, they have no advantage. There are just a few people in the frontcourt. Unless they can play a wonderful match, otherwise only rely on the Bergkamp needle thread, Millwall's defense is not a sieve.
Moreover, Arsenal's double back configuration is not perfect at this time. Pratt's running ability is obviously a loophole, but he does not occupy the position but the defense is not in place. It is a defensive mine.
In the first half, a one-ball lead was achieved, and the two teams walked back to the locker room to rest.
Aldridge arranged his second half tactics, which was basically unchanged, but the details focused.
For example, after the midfield penetration attack Keon, the opponent has a yellow card in the body, defensive actions will be scrupulous.
Nedvedo runs around Pratt...
