Chapter 676 Great Record

After Lavezzi forced Alves away on the left, he passed the ball to the back post. Robinho got in front of Kompany and poked the ball into Cech's goal. The whole St. James Park Stadium was completely greeted with a wave of applause!

This goal happened in the 86th minute, which made all the magpies who came to the scene very satisfied, because if the current score continued, they would tie Tottenham Hotspur 2:2 at home in this game!

This is such a difficult thing!

After the unexpected draw with Everton in the first round of this season, Tottenham Hotspur defeated all the strong teams in the Premier League, and made the three top teams Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal concede more than five goals, which made almost all the fans shout, who can stop Tottenham Hotspur?

Redknapp, who was praised by Ye Qiu as the best local coach in England before the game, used the way of tying Tottenham Hotspur in this game to prove that Ye Qiu's opinion was not wrong at all.

In fact, everyone knows that Tottenham Hotspur dares to play with a single defensive midfielder, especially trusting Pirlo as a single defensive midfielder. The problem is very serious, but whether it is Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, West Ham United or Liverpool, they have not been able to make good use of this to break through Tottenham Hotspur's defense.

Why?

The reason is very simple, that is, they lack sufficient strength to force Tottenham Hotspur to expose their weaknesses!

The so-called tactics are actually not obscure and difficult to understand, that is, to play to one's strengths and avoid one's weaknesses, hide one's weaknesses under one's advantages, and achieve tactical goals through this kind of play to one's strengths and avoid one's weaknesses.

To a certain extent, Newcastle's overall strength is not better than Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool. The problem is that they have an advantage that these teams do not have, that is, the world's top powerful center, Ibrahimovic.

Many people may wonder why there is no way to break through Tottenham's defense. Whether you attack from the front or from the side, it is difficult to achieve the effect. Even if you try every means to target the weak rib of Pirlo, the single defensive midfielder, but it doesn't work in the end, many people don't understand. Does Tottenham have no weaknesses?

In this game, Redknapp proved with facts that Tottenham's weaknesses do exist, and the single defensive midfielder that everyone talks about is indeed a weakness. It's true. If you can't make good use of it, it's because you are not strong enough, or your local strength in attacking the single defensive midfielder is insufficient.

Newcastle started this game very awkwardly. Tottenham took the lead in the first half, and the goal was scored by Messi.

But after the halftime break, the second half started again. Redknapp obviously learned from the experience and lessons of the first half and adjusted the team's tactics. Then Pastore made a mid-range pass, and Ibrahimovic retreated from the forward line, stuck between the single defensive midfielder Pirlo and the two central defenders, and stopped the ball.

At this time, the problem was exposed. Pirlo's protection of the defense line was not strong enough in this situation, so Ibrahimovic used his body to block the pressure of the central defender behind him, and then passed the ball to his teammates who inserted behind according to whether the central defender he pulled out was Thiago Silva or Kompany, and let them diagonally insert the gap after the central defender lost his position.

The first goal happened in this way, Robinho scored a goal to equalize the score for Newcastle.

However, only thirteen minutes after Newcastle equalized the score, Tottenham Hotspur once again surpassed the score. Hazard broke through on the left and cut inside, passing the ball to Vidal at the front of the penalty area. The Chilean midfielder rushed into the penalty area and shot hard, breaking Newcastle's goal, 2:1.

Tottenham Hotspur's on-the-spot adjustment speed is also very fast, especially this team's offensive means are very rich and varied, making opponents hard to defend, and Newcastle did not seem to find a very effective method this time, and always aimed to defend the situation. It was not until the time entered 80 minutes that they launched another counterattack.

It was still Ibrahimovic, and it was still a single defensive midfielder. This time it was Ziglinski's long pass from the backcourt. Ibrahimovic stopped the ball and passed it to Lavezzi, who then assisted Robinho to score.

For two consecutive goals, Newcastle has grasped Tottenham Hotspur's weakness, that is, the single defensive midfielder.

In this game, players including Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Zielinski, Coentrao and others performed very well, especially Ibrahimovic. Such a strong dialogue made him feel excited, especially the opponent was Ye Qiu, whom he always respected the most. As a result, this best player of the game defeated his mentor's team with two planned attacks.

Ye Qiu sat in the coaching seat of the visiting team. He knew very well that the game was basically over after the score was tied in the 86th minute.

It can be said that there are many factors that led to Newcastle's draw, but in summary, there are two. One is that Tottenham Hotspur itself did not play enough offensive effects because the players' physical fitness and state have not recovered to the ideal level after two weeks of national team games.

The other is Ibrahimovic.

"Lao Lei is giving Chelsea a lesson in this game!" Mauro Tassotti said with a bitter smile.

The strong center forward retreats to attack Tottenham's single defensive midfielder. This tactic is indeed very distinctive and can be said to be very targeted, but not all teams can do this, because the game is so fast-paced, how much success rate can you have, and do you have a top strong center forward like Ibrahimovic?

So, on the whole, Newcastle's tactics in this game are not portable, but Chelsea has a Drogba, so to some extent, Chelsea can also use Drogba to play tactics similar to Newcastle. Of course, with different technical characteristics, there must be many different details to consider.

Even, how will the on-the-spot performance be at that time? And will Tottenham make adjustments? These are all questions.

Of course, the biggest question is, can you ensure that Tottenham will not break your goal before your tactics work? You know, Tottenham's offensive power is the best in Europe. Even if Ribery is absent, whether it is Hazard, Neymar, or even Coutinho, the little demon who passes the ball directly, they are all strong.

More importantly, Ye Qiu's on-the-spot command is also very good. He will make changes according to the opponent's tactics during the game. Can the opponent make adjustments immediately afterwards?

It should be said that Newcastle's equalization in this game is full of a certain degree of contingency, but it does expose Tottenham's weakness, that is, the single defensive midfielder, and this point will definitely be valued and utilized by more and more teams.

But there is no need to worry too much. Tottenham now has enough foundation. It is just a draw, which only exposes an obvious weakness. This is not fatal because Tottenham's entire tactical system and framework have been formed.

According to Ye Qiu, according to the current situation in football, no team can completely defeat the entire Tottenham tactical system, because once this system is formed, it will be difficult to break unless it starts to disintegrate from the inside.

Therefore, many teams have believed in the poaching tactic over the years, hoping to dig out Tottenham's corners.

"We need to further improve the speed of attack and defense, and at the same time strengthen the improvement of strength!" Ye Qiu felt that this game taught him a good lesson.

Looking back to the past and present, the development history of modern football tactics in the past 100 years can clearly find a very interesting trend, that is, faster and faster, better and better physical fitness, and stronger and stronger.

Everything in this world is mutually reinforcing and mutually exclusive. It is not wrong to attach importance to technology, but you must know that better strength can make up for the gap in technology to some extent, just like Ibrahimovic's performance in this game.

And the improvement of speed is not just a simple sentence, but represents the improvement of a very large system behind it, because football is always 90 minutes. The faster you are, the longer the running distance in a game is, and the higher the physical requirements are.

The physical requirements depend on your usual training level, eating habits and many other logistical factors.

In addition, the faster the speed, the higher the requirements for the player's ability to handle the ball, which are all a whole supporting system.

So, some people say that football is a war without gunpowder. When it comes to war, there is a saying that is very thorough. The core factor that determines the outcome of a war is logistics. In the same way, what determines the outcome of a football game is not only the strength of the players and the level of the head coach, but also the team's logistics.

If there is a team that can make its players run an average distance of more than 13 kilometers in each game, then congratulations, this team will definitely be able to maneuver and be invincible.

In the past ten years of coaching experience, Ye Qiu has clearly seen that his advantage as a time traveler will become less and less, and even one day it will no longer exist. So if he wants to ensure that Tottenham Hotspur continues to dominate the Premier League and continue to dominate Europe, he must make a fuss in the team's entire operating system.

In the past few years, Tottenham Hotspur's Theobald Research Center has been committed to research and development in related areas. The team tailors physical training programs for each player and studies each player's technical characteristics, physical characteristics, and even their spiritual consciousness in an extremely detailed way.

Now, all of this is gradually bearing fruit. For example, Ramsey, Eriksen, Vidal, Cavani, Messi and others run close to 12 kilometers in almost every game, or even more than 12 kilometers. In the future, more and more players will break through this bottleneck, and this will also bring about the arrival of Tottenham Hotspur's dynasty!

Mauro Tassotti is Ye Qiu's right-hand man. He personally experienced everything Ye Qiu did. He knew very well that once all this was successful, it would completely change the history and development of the entire football and would greatly advance the level of football.

Because all professionals know that it is difficult for the existing football tactical system to undergo revolutionary changes, and all the scientific research that Tottenham Hotspur is doing now is to further introduce high technology into the football field, especially Ye Qiu's idea of ​​making football faster and more powerful, which will lead the direction of future football tactical changes.

"You know, to study this kind of thing is that you have money, time, manpower, and material resources, and even you have everything you should have, but it just doesn't come out, even though you know that you are just across the door from it. Door, but you just can't see it!" Mauro Tassotti was helpless about this.

Tottenham Hotspur now invests millions of pounds in R\u0026D centers every year. Do you really think that Ye Qiu is just idle or has too much money in his pocket? Wrong, all this money is invested in all R\u0026D projects of the research center!

Of course, Ye Qiu will definitely not suffer a loss, because all research and development results will be shared with Ye Zi Technology and then used in a series of Ye Zi Technology products. For example, they also recently plan to launch wearable devices with medical and sports functions.

Ye Qiu has strongly supported Peter Brandt's research since he acquired Tottenham Hotspur. This Dutchman had previously studied running distance and speed. The theory he used to convince Ye Qiu at that time was that players' running distance It will get longer and longer.

More than five years have passed since the acquisition of Tottenham Hotspur in 2006. Research is still in progress, and the research institute's stall is getting bigger and bigger. There are at least 30 senior experts in the research institute now. , many of whom have received funding to form research groups at prestigious universities such as Oxford and Cambridge.

But who can guarantee when research will achieve major breakthroughs?

There may be results tomorrow, but there may not be results five years later, or even ten years later!

But no matter what, Ye Qiu still remained patient. He would give money and people to others whenever he wanted. He knew very well that this direction was right and it was the future development trend of football. Therefore, even if the road No matter how twists and turns, no matter how uneasy the process is, he believes that there will be a bright future in the distance.

"No matter what," Ye Qiu patted Mauro Tassotti's shoulder with his left hand and stood up from his seat, "I believe in myself, I believe in you, and I believe even more in one principle in this world, that is As long as you are willing to invest, you will definitely get something in return, because it is fair!" Ye Qiu pointed to the dark night sky outside the dazzling lights of St. James Park Stadium.

…………

Tottenham Hotspur drew with Newcastle 2:2, their second draw this season, but no team would hit Tottenham Hotspur, because Ye Qiu's team completed almost everything A great feat that no one dares to imagine is that they finally tied the 58-game unbeaten record created by AC Milan during the Capello period.

"It's difficult for me to evaluate which of the two teams is better, because excellent teams are often limited by the times, but I feel that in today's football, Tottenham Hotspur is an unparalleled team. The team represents the most advanced football tactics on the planet, and I know that they are still exploring and making progress!”

"I want to congratulate Ye Qiu and Tottenham Hotspur, and I also wish them a win next week!"

Except for Capello, almost the entire English football world, and even the entire United Kingdom, are singing the praises of Tottenham Hotspur.

For British fans, most of them are still living in the afterglow of the British Empire, so Tottenham Hotspur is tied and even hopes to break AC Milan's 58-game unbeaten streak. , for them, this is simply a great honor and a great psychological satisfaction.

The reason is simple. If anyone dares to say that English football is not good in the future, then please take a look at Tottenham Hotspur!

In addition to fans and professional media people, many colleagues in the Premier League also congratulated Tottenham Hotspur on their feat. Ferguson said that he has reached the end of his career. A team like Tottenham Hotspur is an honor and a stimulation for me. I hope to persist until the day when Tottenham Hotspur declines and win 8:0 at White Hart Lane with my own hands. Beat Tottenham Hotspur!”

Wenger said that Tottenham Hotspur's football gave him a strong impact. "This impact does not come from tactics, because tactics vary from person to person. This kind of impact is the philosophy of this team. Ye Autumn made me realize in many ways that football is more than just football itself!”

In addition, many famous coaches like Benitez, Mourinho, Villas-Boas, Redknapp, Ancelotti... many famous coaches said in interviews with the media that Tottenham Hotspur can achieve this goal. This honor is well deserved, and even real celebrities, the legendary Sacchi, Menotti and others have written articles in the media to congratulate Tottenham Hotspur for their achievements.

And including Sacchi and Menotti are calling for Tottenham and Ye Qiu not to be satisfied with this, but to continue to work hard and move forward!

Rarely, UEFA President Platini also said in an interview in his private name that he had been conquered by Tottenham and that he was a die-hard fan of Tottenham.

"From Tottenham, I see not only their inheritance of the past of football, but also their promotion of it now, and I also see the future of football from them!"

For a time, the media of almost every country on the earth were praising Tottenham.
