Chapter 625 One vs Two
As early as when Ajax was playing football, Van Basten once mentioned to Yang Yang a very important element in the game, momentum.
How to define this potential specifically is really hard to say.
With the enrichment and accumulation of experience, Yang Yang has a better understanding of it.
Momentum is really important, and it can even change the direction of the entire game.
After coming to Liverpool for a year and a half, Yang Yang gradually felt a lot of things under the coaching of Benitez. He felt that the Spaniard is a head coach who is very good at using power.
When the opponent's gesture is strong, he decisively adjusts the team's tactics, suppressing the opponent and killing the opponent's momentum; when the opponent's gesture is weak, Liverpool presses forward aggressively, trying to kill the opponent in one go.
This seems to be very simple. Doesn't it mean that when the opponent has the upper hand, he will play a defensive counterattack, and when the opponent is at a disadvantage, he will press hard?
No, things are not that simple at all.
……
In this game, Liverpool lost one Harvey Alonso, the midfield was greatly affected, and the team's formation was also very difficult.
Benitez still formed a four-three-three formation, the goalkeeper is Reina, the defense is Aurelio, Hyypia, Skrtel and Carragher, and the Liverpool vice-captain plays the right back position.
The reason why such a lineup is played is that Inter Milan has two terrible high center forwards, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cruz, so Liverpool gave up Finnan and Arbeloa on the right.
Benitez's strategy is also very clear. The three central defenders are responsible for freezing the opponent's double center forward. Aurelio is more mobile on the left. He presses up when attacking and retreats when defending.
Liverpool is very sure about their left, and Benitez believes that Yang Yang can limit Maicon on the right.
In the midfield, Mascherano and Lucas Leiva play double midfielders, and Gerrard breaks forward.
Yang Yang, Crouch and Dirk Dirk formed the trident in the frontcourt.
Inter Milan also sent their main players to play.
The goalkeeper is Cesar, the defense is Maicon, Cordoba, Materazzi and Maxwell, the three midfielders are Vieira, Cambiasso and Zanetti, Stankovic is forward, and the double forwards are Cruz and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
……
Mancini's strategy is very clear, the start of the game let the team aggressively press the attack.
In the absence of Xabi Alonso, Inter Milan wanted to suppress Liverpool from the beginning, using its fast-paced attack to attack the opponent, while also playing the threat of the two high center forwards of Kroos and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Just 5 minutes into the game, Inter Milan created a dangerous situation. Vieira made a cross, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed back to the center. When Cambiasso followed up and wanted to hit the goal, Lucas Leiva blocked the baseline.
But only 3 minutes later, Inter Milan got a throw-in on the left. Zlatan Ibrahimovic blocked the Liverpool defenders with his body in the penalty area, protected the ball and knocked back, Cruz volleyed vigorously, and was saved by Reina.
Three minutes later, Inter Milan made a breakthrough in the middle, Zanetti was tripped by Dirk Dirk, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic got a free kick and hit the crossbar directly, which shocked everyone into a cold sweat.
The ball hit the crossbar and flew back into the court. Stankovic volleyed directly, but failed to hold the ball high.
The continuous attack made Inter Milan so powerful that it also made Liverpool very embarrassed.
In terms of momentum, Liverpool should obviously pay more attention to defense at this time, or even retreat.
But Benitez did not let the team do this, but kept signaling from the sidelines that the midfielder should press out, so that Mascherano, Lucas Leiva, and Gerrard should press forward and not retreat.
After the defeat in the opening game, Inter Milan went all out and pushed forward, while Liverpool retreated steadily. Both Crouch and Dirk Drivet actively returned to the defense.
He believes that the team has retreated too far, even huddled in the penalty area, which is quite detrimental to Liverpool's defense.
Both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cruise are high center forwards, not fast, but the threat in the penalty area is quite amazing.
Even to a certain extent, Liverpool's central defender can't stop Ibrahimovic at all, which can be seen from his frequent use of the ball to plan attacks after the opening.
In this case, it is necessary to press the defense forward and keep them away from the goal.
Yang Yang is very clear about Benitez's tactical intentions and also understands the current situation of the team, so he is still at the forefront even with the retreat of Dirk and Crouch.
Inter Milan came out in full force, Maicon and Maxwell were very active on the two wings, but Materazzi and Cordoba always followed behind, obviously also very afraid of Yang Yang.
Liverpool did not play a threatening counterattack until the No. 12 minute.
Dirk Driven sent a pass from the right and sent the ball directly behind Materazzi.
Yang Yang took advantage of the trend and went straight behind Materazzi at the fastest speed. He overtook everyone and caught up with the ball on the right side of the penalty area. Materazzi and Cordoba also returned to the penalty area in time.
One-to-two.
Yang Yang seemed very decisive, and directly dribbled the ball from the right rib to Materazzi.
Although Materazzi was crazy, he didn't dare to be careless in the face of Yang Yang, and his attention was always on Yang Yang.
But as soon as the two came into contact, Yang Yang had just entered Materazzi's defense zone. Before the Italian central defender could react, he suddenly made a gesture to go down, and then buckled back in an instant, directly passing the pendulum!
Materazzi only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and before he even had time to react, Yang Yang dribbled the ball and cut in.
The Italian central defender did not choose to foul because there was a Cordoba behind him.
But Yang Yang suddenly accelerated when cutting inside, waded past Cordoba, and shot directly with his left foot.
At this time, they suddenly realized that although this guy is a left winger, he is known for cutting inside with his right foot, but in fact, he is a right winger in Ajax, known for cutting inside with his left foot.
This shot was shot very quickly, and the angle was very tricky. He wanted to hit the lower left corner of the goal directly.
But Cesar reacted quickly. Although this was his first time facing Yang Yang, he had done enough homework before the game, especially Maicon and Maxwell, who gave him a lot of advice, so when he saw Yang Yang cutting inside, he was already ready.
The Inter Milan goalkeeper flew sideways and directly saved Yang Yang's shot from the goal, a corner kick.
Yang Yang was not surprised when he saw that the shot was saved, but he twisted his left foot depressedly. He was not satisfied with his shot just now, because he originally wanted to hit a bouncing ball, and the speed would be faster.
But obviously, his body is still not in the best condition. Although he still shot a good shot, he was still saved by Cesar.
More than 8 Meazza fans at the scene all exclaimed in unison, apparently shocked by Yang Yang's shot.
Single-handedly, picking two central defenders by himself, he was able to shoot such a wonderful shot. This is Yang Yang in a less than ideal state, which shocked everyone on the scene.
If he was still in the crazy state in the first half, wouldn't this goal be scored?
And once Liverpool scores a goal, the situation of the game will be completely unfavorable to Inter Milan.
If they had any impressions before, then now, more than 8 fans at the scene, as well as Inter Milan players, can truly feel the horror of Yang Yang and his importance to Liverpool.
He is already the most decisive top superstar in Europe at the moment!
…………
…………
After being stunned by Yang Yang's shot, Inter Milan's offensive had to slow down.
Benitez quickly made an on-the-spot command and adjusted the team's tactics, allowing Mascherano, Lucas Leiva and Gerrard to press forward, while Crouch and Dirk also pressed up.
Both the frontcourt and the midfield were pushed out, and the backline naturally followed suit.
In this way, the two Inter Milan center forwards were blocked outside the penalty area, even outside the 30-meter area.
At the same time, Liverpool stepped up the pressure in the midfield, forcing Inter Milan to take more long passes and go directly to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cruz. However, because the two center forwards left the threatening area and got the ball, they lacked the support of the wings and teammates behind them, causing Inter Milan's offense to lose its threat.
……
"There are too many long passes. Inter Milan itself is not suitable for playing long passes. Now that the midfielder can't play the ball, more direct long passes are made to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. However, Liverpool has strengthened its defense against Ibrahimovic, making it difficult for the Swedish center to hold the ball."
Bergomi, who was explaining on the spot, was obviously worried about the current situation of Inter Milan.
"Stankovic should play more roles, especially connecting the striker and midfielder. He should make himself more active."
But just as he was talking, Stankovic just got the ball on the court, but was suddenly entangled by Mascherano, and directly stabbed it away.
"Javier Mascherano's defensive ability is really good, Benitez obviously also intends to use him to pinch Stankovic."
Speaking of this, the famous Italian star Rossi shook his head and sighed.
"I played very well in the opening ten minutes just now, but it's a pity that I failed to score a goal."
"Yes." Vialli also agrees very much, "Yang Yang's one-on-two play just now was very beautiful, and it also scared the defensive players of Inter Milan. Mancini dare not give him such a chance again. Once he loses the ball, he will be too passive."
In the knockout round of the Champions League, giving an away goal to the opponent at home, especially allowing the opponent to score first, is simply a nightmare. Although Mancini is a striker, the Italian coach will never take such a risk.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Mancini's conservatism was also forced by Yang Yang.
In this game, the core players of the two teams, Yang Yang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, played very well, but the key is the coach's formation and the team's lineup configuration, which caused the current situation of the two teams to be different.
Although no one wants to admit it, Liverpool's overall strength is indeed slightly better than Inter Milan.
