Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 354 Wang Li Vs Ronaldinho (1)

Wang Li's strong attack shocked the morale of all Chelsea players! !

Barcelona's first offensive play just now was really exciting, and all Chelsea supporters including coach Mourinho understood very well that it is difficult for the team to play that type of attack. The gap between the team and La Liga in terms of technology is that even if more than half of Chelsea's players are from abroad, it is difficult to catch up with the technical level of the La Liga team. This is not only the impact of the league, but also the impact of football history.

And Wang Li's attack like a personal performance this time made everyone think of their advantages --- body, confrontation, defense, and they still have Wang Li, this black-haired boy can score goals in almost every game , there is no reason for this game to be an exception, but this somewhat self-comforting idea lifted everyone's spirits and gave them full confidence in the next game.

On the other hand, Barcelona is just the opposite. Although one failure is nothing, their defensive players still understand that the strength of the black-haired kid on the other side is as terrifying as the media said, no, even stronger than that! !

How to defend this! ! ?

At this time, Ronaldinho, the core of the team and the actual leader on the field, stood up. He waved to his teammates and said, "Guys, be more energetic and play steadily."

This sentence reminded all the players on the Barcelona field-'Our victory has never been achieved by defense! ! '.

attack! !attack! !
In the presence of nearly 10 Barcelona fans in the audience, Barcelona's offense unfolded in waves.

In the 7th minute of the game, Frank Lampard's pass in the middle of Chelsea's attack was directly intercepted by Eto'o. After the latter got the ball, he took two steps and distributed the ball to the left.

This time, Ronaldinho showed his magnificent footwork for the first time in this game. A brilliant "ox tail" style made Makelele's fierce and fierce steals useless.

Then Paulo Ferreira's interception, the new World Footballer of the Year chose to shift from a large angle to the center, and then shot with his right foot 25 meters away from the goal! !
The goalkeeper Petr Cech, who started the match, struggled to catch the ball, but he still couldn't catch it. Fortunately, the ball deviated from the far left corner of the goal and went out of the baseline, which made the Chelsea players heave a sigh of relief.

Subsequently, Chelsea played a wave of offense without pain, and after Barcelona stole the ball in the backcourt, they continued to attack and put pressure.

In the 16th minute, Barcelona got another good chance. After a few passes, the football was handed over to Eto'o in the middle.

After the big African man got the ball, he didn't choose to pass the ball. Instead, he broke through directly in the middle and swayed several defensive players away. Thumbs up, this kind of reaction speed is definitely not something that ordinary people can have.

It's a pity that Eto'o is a serious earthling, and he doesn't know any subtle footwork. On the front of the penalty area, Chelsea captain John Terry stepped forward again and seized the opportunity of Eto'o waving the ball too far , Directly clear the ball with big feet.

But this did not change the chance for Chelsea. The football was still at the feet of the Barcelona players. After only a few seconds, the football was handed over to Ronaldinho. Breaking through the restricted area line, and then under the intensive defense, the Brazilian deftly passed back to Eto'o.

When Eto'o received the ball, he was only about 16 meters away from the fans, and because Chelsea's defensive players were paying attention to Ronaldinho, the defense against him was very lax. Mourinho stood up in shock.

Obviously, this is a very threatening ball! !

Unfortunately, perhaps the opportunity came too suddenly. The Cameroonian hit a plane very disappointingly. Seeing the ball fly directly out of the crossbar like an anti-aircraft gun, even Petr Cech in front of the goal was stunned.

Only 2 minutes later, Barcelona made a successful steal on the center line. Full-back Van Bronthorst transferred the ball to the left with a long pass. Albertini, who had just inserted, competed with Ricardo Carvalho on the left. The last pass back to Deco resolved the crisis of being intercepted. After receiving the ball, Deco didn't stop the ball at all, and just slammed it straight into the Chelsea penalty area.

In the scramble, Captain Terry stepped forward again. This time his clearance failed to be strong, which made the ball roll directly to Ronaldinho's feet! !

Danger! !
Everyone knew the danger, but only one became a hero—Didier Drogba.

This Ivory Coast monster played the spirit of "team love". Standing beside Ronaldinho, he "sacrificed" himself for the team, and directly made a wonderful tackle on the grass, which made Ronaldinho The Orian lay on the ground with the ball.

Undoubtedly, he soon received the yellow medal of honor issued by the notary ambassador of the game, the Italian bald referee Corina, which is also the first yellow medal of honor to appear in this game.

What surprised the Ivorians was that Ronaldinho quickly stood up from the grass again. He jumped twice on the spot, proving that he was completely unscathed. He even smiled at Drogba. Smiling, those two front teeth kept shining under the light, as if laughing at the recklessness of Warcraft...

Seeing Barcelona's continuous attack in the past 10 minutes, both the coach Mourinho off the court and Wang Li, who was standing idle in the frontcourt, frowned. Obviously, Barcelona's offense is getting smoother and smoother. , if things go on like this, it's only a matter of time before a goal is scored.

As Chelsea failed to attack again, Wang Li deliberately ran in the direction of Chelsea's coaching bench and looked up at coach Mourinho. The Portuguese obviously knew what he meant. On the tactical level, he gave Wang Li guidance, he was able to be present in the game, and he was aware of the changes in the situation of the two teams. He smiled with satisfaction, and then nodded to him.

Taking advantage of a Barcelona throw-in, Wang Li ran back from the frontcourt to the backcourt. After attracting the attention of all Chelsea teammates, he raised his right hand and waved towards the goal. Too many opportunities to break through."

Seeing that his teammates nodded in understanding, Wang Licai turned and ran towards the frontcourt.

In fact, in this game, Mourinho arranged a 442 offensive and defensive balance formation for the team. Since Robben and Duff on the two wings did not play, this reduced Chelsea's control of the wing a lot, so The Portuguese talents use the formation to advance the front line a little bit, the purpose is to use the strong midfield interception ability to effectively support the frontcourt.

However, in the face of Barcelona's smooth attack, Chelsea's formation seems a bit too forward. Barcelona is all-out attack and full-defense. The cooperation between their players and their personal technical convenience obviously have great advantages. Come on, if Chelsea doesn't score as soon as possible, it will be inevitable to shrink the defense line and strengthen the defense. If the opponent scores first, then the game will be difficult to play.

This trick has proven to be very effective.

After Chelsea calmly retracted the defensive line and compressed Barcelona's offensive space, although Barcelona's offense was still playing smoothly, they lacked the ability to directly threaten. In other words, their offense could only be pushed to the front of the penalty area, and it was difficult to continue As a result, it is difficult for them to find good shooting opportunities, and even if they find opportunities, it is difficult to shoot any threatening balls.

"During this period, Barcelona's offense seems to be much less threatening. From Eto'o's shot to now 10 minutes, they don't seem to have found any good opportunities. Chelsea's defense seems to have played a good role. Let's take a look. This corner kick..." Taking advantage of Barcelona's bottom-line corner kick, Graham of Sky TV immediately commented.

However, his comment is premature.

Just after Graham finished his sentence, a few seconds later, Barcelona's tactical corner kick gave them a good chance, and the main attacking center back Belletti received the ball on the left side of Chelsea's penalty area and kicked it directly. The ball stabbed towards the crowded penalty area. At this time, the Chelsea defensive players who realized the tactical corner kick also returned to their positions immediately, but this pass by Belletti happened to pass the sides of the three defensive players. He played the ball to Ronaldinho on the other side of the penalty area.

Ronaldinho, who was facing the ball, was very calm and calm. Facing the ball, he was only 7 meters away from the goal on the left. He faced Paulo Ferreira's defense and shot a kick. The unexpected shot made Paul Ferreira helpless, but also made Cech unable to react at all.

This is the role of superstars. They often score goals for the team in a flash of inspiration! !

This kind of creativity is by no means comparable to that of ordinary players.

Fortunately, God helped Chelsea again. Ronaldinho's shot hit the post and flew out of the baseline.

Seeing that the goal was missed, Ronaldinho hugged his head in frustration, ignored the comforting words of his teammates running over, and walked straight towards his own half.

Barcelona's attack wave after wave, Wang Li frowned. Chelsea's shrinking defense did have some effect. Barcelona didn't get any good chances in the attack for 10 minutes, but there was still a one-sided trend in the game. It's hard to fight. It's not that Wang Li didn't play well, but that Barcelona's strong suppressing ability at home made it difficult for Chelsea players to devote their energy to support the offense. When counterattacking in the frontcourt, no players could keep up. Wang Li's speed and awareness make every attack feel a bit anticlimactic.

At this time, Wang Li really 'missed' Robben and Duff. If these two were on the court, I am afraid that Chelsea would have scored a goal.The two of them not only have a great impact on Chelsea's offense with their individual abilities on the wing, but also cooperate very well with Wang Li. Whether it is running positions, awareness, etc., they will play quite smoothly.

However, this is obviously just a daydream and meaningless. In desperation, Wang Li can only run backwards to participate in the team's defense. It would certainly be unwise to waste time on the field.

Ronaldinho! !
This is the defensive goal Wang Li is looking for.

In terms of fame, Ronaldinho is the World Player of the Year this year, and his current strength can be said to have reached the most glorious time of his career. In terms of performance, in the first 30 minutes of the game, his performance And indeed the best of the bunch.

It's easy for a discerning person to see, so Wang Li chose him. As long as Ronaldinho's attack at this point is cut off, then Barcelona's offensive ability will definitely be greatly reduced, and if there are one or two successful steals, it will be possible. Opportunity to play one or two quick counterattacks, although not in the frontcourt, the offensive efficiency will be greatly reduced, but it is much better than watching the team being bombarded by the opponent in the frontcourt now.

After making up his mind, Wang Li slowly approached Ronaldinho, taking advantage of the latter's opportunity to catch the ball with his back, Wang Li quickly leaned over from behind.

Ronaldinho didn't realize that there was someone approaching from behind. Facing his teammate's high-altitude pass, he raised his right foot and slammed it. After the momentum of the ball slowed down, he rubbed it again, and then took advantage of the situation to turn around and take the ball. He collided directly with Wang Li.

Ronaldinho didn't even know that someone was behind him. This kind of unconsciousness made the collision more violent. In an instant, he felt as if his body had hit an iron wall, and his mind flashed across the player channel The feeling that made him linger, he immediately understood who was behind it, and at the same time, he opened his mouth and looked at it in surprise.

Here's your chance! !
Although this collision with Ronaldinho made Wang Li feel a little sudden, which even made his body a little unbalanced, but this will not affect his interception. In an instant, he took a footwork with the word "kan". The "starting posture" of this set of footwork is originally a slanted body, which made Wang Li balance his body in an instant. Stabbed from the front of Ronaldinho.

All of this happened only in the blink of an eye. From the eyes of the fans, it was the black-haired boy who was hit by Ronaldinho and almost fell to the ground. Then he was lucky. Just kicked out of the football.

But no matter what the process was, it was clear that the football had flown out of Ronaldinho's grasp and into Lampard's feet.

"Hiss..., is this guy a human?"

Different from the sympathetic eyes that all the fans looked at Wang Li, Ronaldinho, one of the protagonists, stabilized his body, and immediately turned his head to look at Wang Li who had already walked away. He grinned hoarsely.

"What's the matter? Moreira (Ronaldo)?" Puyol, who was next to Ronaldinho, walked up to Ronaldinho, patted his shoulder, and looked at Wang Li's back at the same time, asking suspiciously .

An incredible expression flashed across Ronaldinho's face. He turned to Puyol and said, "Be careful, don't collide with that guy. His body is too strong."

"Strong?" Puyol looked at the small body of the black-haired boy in front of him, then at himself, and said with a chuckle.

Hearing what Puyol said, Ronaldinho also looked at his body carefully, then shook his head and said: "I think you'd better be careful when defending, you will definitely suffer from fighting with him, that guy It's like a wall."

"But he was hit by you just now and almost fell to the ground..." Puyol asked in confusion.

Ronaldinho looked up at the sky, frowned in doubt, and said, "Maybe!?"

…………

Although Wang Li's tactical idea of ​​returning to the backcourt to mark Ronaldinho is very good, in fact, Chelsea's counterattack will be even more inefficient. Barcelona scored.

On the other hand, the Barcelona players, when they saw the threatening black-haired boy defending Ronaldinho, they were relieved, because in this way, Chelsea's offense was weak, but Barcelona's offense was still able. They continued to play, and after several steals by Wang Li, these Barcelona players also learned to be smart, and they no longer passed the ball to Ronaldo.

Facts have proved that Wang Li's defense was a failure, which only made the two teams 10 against 10. Both Wang Li and Ronaldinho couldn't get the ball. Obviously Chelsea suffered more, because in their view Lai Wangli's level is still higher than Ronaldinho's.

The same is true on the scene. Barcelona's offense is still wave after wave, which may threaten Chelsea's goal at any time. On the other hand, Chelsea's offense is always limp and weak. Since Wang Li is in the backcourt, Chelsea's quick counterattack cannot hit at all. stand up.

After going on like this for a period of time, seeing that the time had reached almost 40 minutes, Wang Li shook his head helplessly, and just chose to return to the center line to wait for an opportunity.

However, before leaving, he glanced at the coaching bench again, then waved to his teammates, signaling the team's lineup to continue to retreat. Obviously, the purpose of making this temporary instruction on field tactics for the second time It must be to shrink the line of defense aggressively.

This tactical change is completely different from just now. If Chelsea just retreated slightly to reduce the space for Barcelona to attack, now it is Chelsea who really adjusted their tactics to a defensive counterattack. , This is also what Wang Li is best at. His deadly speed can easily catch the opponent by surprise. In this way, the team is more likely to get a good chance to score.

In such a situation, Barcelona's offense was severely hindered due to Chelsea's defensive line pulling back. Although Chelsea did not get any good opportunities for the time being, the coach Rijkaard on the Barcelona coaching bench still couldn't sit still. In fact, he could clearly see the opponent's tactics 3 minutes ago, and Barcelona's attack was blocked, which made him feel some crisis for a while.

However, he looked up to see the red subtitles in the middle of the court, and sat still a little uneasy-43:50, which means that there are less than 4 minutes left in the first half of the game. Not a great choice.
