My football skills are so strong! I am the king of control

Rabiot's role in midfield advancement is more about offense-defense conversion. As long as there is space for advancement, Rabiot will definitely dribble the ball upwards in the first place without any pause!

The 16th minute of the game!

"Rabiot's dribbling in the middle is still very good. He has long legs and big steps. Every step forward is a distance of nearly half a meter!"

"Facing Wijnaldum, he didn't choose to dribble past him, but passed the ball to the right, where Meunier got the ball and passed it again!"

"Wijnaldum couldn't defend two players at once, the ball came back to Rabiot and Di Maria was reaching out."

Rabiot immediately passed the ball to Di Maria, who stopped lightly after receiving the ball and then turned forward.

Di Maria stopped the ball and passed it to Cavani who was retreating. Cavani took two steps back, received the ball from Di Maria and passed it again towards the penalty area!

"Di Maria! Made a great interference run!"

Cavani's pass went straight to Di Maria. The moment Di Maria got the ball, he adjusted one step and was about to shoot, but Lovren blocked it in time.

Van Dijk followed up with a double-team, and the two of them surrounded the relatively thin Di Maria and completed the defense!

Although the defensive success rate was high, it was obvious that Paris Saint-Germain took the initiative on the field.

"Liverpool have been on the defensive since the start of the game. This may be the team's tactical arrangement, but they can't continue like this for long."

"If we passively take a beating for a long time, sooner or later cracks will appear in the team's defense, giving the opponent a chance to score!"

Scholes found it strange because in his impression Liverpool did not play this kind of football and this style should not appear in Liverpool.

As Paris Saint-Germain's attack came to an end, Liverpool's position began to move higher, and the crazy pressure tactics familiar to the fans appeared!

Lin Chen was in the middle, leading his teammates to press forward. The time just now was just the time for Liverpool to adapt to Paris's tactical system.

But now they have gotten used to it, and Lin Chen has found a breakthrough in Paris!

"Diagonally, we need to pass the ball diagonally, especially in the middle."

"In order to facilitate the advancement, they will let Rabiot, Marquinhos and Di Maria stagger their positions, which seems to be able to defend both vertical and horizontal spaces, but if we can make a straight pass at a diagonal 45 or 60 degrees, we can get a one-on-one space!"

This is the cracking tactic developed by Klopp's coaching team before the game.

As Paris Saint-Germain's tactical play emerged in the first ten minutes, the feasibility of Klopp's tactics was proved.

Next it’s Liverpool’s turn to take action!

The 27th minute of the game!

The Liverpool players ran at high speed, not chasing the ball, but only staring at the Paris players, defending man-to-man, staying close to the bodies, frequently confronting, and interfering with the Paris players' space to receive the ball!

Wijnaldum kept following Rabiot, preventing him from receiving the ball.

In order to take on the responsibility of passing the ball, Marquinhos was forced to retreat frequently to assist in passing the ball from the backcourt.

But in this way, he couldn't form a timely defense against Lin Chen in the midfield, and Liverpool's tactical effect was achieved!

This is more like a temptation, or torture.

Liverpool first forced Marquinhos to take on the task of passing the ball from the backcourt through this torturous running and pressing.

Lin Chen started to move to the right side of the center, looking for opportunities using the space left by Marquinhos.

The 37th minute of the game!

"After the advantage at the start, it is now difficult for Paris to pass the ball!"

"Once again Liverpool pushed the Paris players into their half."

"Kimpembe held the ball in the backcourt and tried to find space to pass the ball. Rabiot was being closely watched and had to pass it to Marquinhos!"

As soon as Marquinhos received the ball, Firmino rushed towards him frantically. If it weren't on the court, Marquinhos could reasonably suspect that the guy in front of him was a lunatic.
