Chapter 64 This speed is wrong

Whoever wins the midfield can win the world.

In modern football, the midfield engine is the soul of a team.

It is necessary not only to prevent the opponent's players from breaking through the last line of defense, but also to organize the attack in the middle, and to be the assister for the forwards to score goals.

Moreover, the backcourt players must not only pass the ball to the frontcourt in a timely manner, but more importantly, they must also take into account the defense of the backcourt.

Such multiple and complex tasks require a calm commander who understands the overall situation.

In Bournemouth's 4-2-3-1 formation, the three frontcourt attackers are responsible for the team's offense and high press, and have no time to worry about the defense behind them.

Therefore, double midfielders have become the key to balancing the entire team's offense and defense.

In this position, the defensive midfielder must not only observe the overall situation, give instructions, and direct the players, but also defend well.

Under such circumstances, the consumption of players' physical energy is quite huge.

In the first half, Leeds United launched an attack on the opponent's midfielder position and mobilized the defense in order to deliberately consume the energy of the midfielder.

Once there is a crisis in physical fitness, the concentration on the game will decrease, which will affect the judgment of the ball path.

Suleman was absent due to injury before this, and his physical condition has not yet returned to its best.

The offensive advantage in the first half made him overly excited and consumed too much physical energy without even realizing it.

After the start of the second half, Leeds United suddenly increased the team's offensive rhythm, which made Surman a little uncomfortable.

Coupled with physical problems, he made a mistake in judgment and was caught by his opponent to counterattack and equalize the score.

After Leeds United took advantage of the situation, they concentrated their advantage and attacked Surman's point, catching him off guard.

What's even more fatal is that if one of the two defensive midfielders has a problem, Richie will have to go over to make up for the defense. In this way, there will be a gap behind him.

Leeds United took advantage of this and launched an efficient counterattack in a short period of time.

In the 68th minute, Eddie Howe replaced Suleman with O'Kane to consolidate the defense of the midfielder.

After taking a two-goal lead, Leeds United slowed down their offensive pace, recovered defensively, gave up possession of the ball, and concentrated on counterattacks.

At this time, the team that is anxious is Bournemouth.

In the 70th minute, Rossi took off his vest and ran to the sidelines to wait.

[Depending on the situation, Luo is going to play.]

[The training scandal caused him to be refuted by the head coach and put on the bench. Now the team is in crisis. Eddie Howe hopes that he can bring changes to the team. 】

[At this time, there are no personal grudges, everything is focused on the team. This is the most basic conduct of a professional player.]

No. 18 Comergant exits, No. 14 Rossi enters.

Of course the head coach of Leeds United knows that Rossi is the hottest rising star in the British Championship.

He also knows that no matter how talented a player is, if he is undisciplined in training and lacks self-control in his life, he will fall into decline as quickly as he becomes famous.

Before the game, he had studied Rossi's technical characteristics and arranged some defensive tactics for him.

The game resumes and Bournemouth kicks off.

Facing Leeds United's shrinking defense, consolidate the defense.

Bournemouth used Rossi to retreat to get the ball and pressure the defense.

But the moment O'Kane passed the ball, defender Jason Pierce immediately stepped forward to interfere with Rossi.

At the same time, Leeds United's back line retreated collectively to prevent the opponent from advancing.

[Facing Bournemouth’s forwardless formation, Leeds United made targeted defense. Jason Pearce did not press, but kept a safe distance from Ronaldo to limit the passing route.]

[Luo doesn’t have a suitable passing line, so he can only pass back or try to force the ball. However, Leeds United’s defense has retreated very deep, and the forward teammates have no space to receive the ball.]

[It seems that Redfern has made sufficient preparations before the game, and every adjustment is very targeted.]

This assistant coach of Leeds United still has something.

Ten minutes passed. Rossi's retreat organization did not bring many counterattack opportunities to the team. Instead, he was repeatedly restricted by the defender, making it difficult to have a chance to play the ball.

Eddie Howe touched his chin with his right hand and frowned. Time passed by, but it was difficult for the team to find opportunities.

Rossi saw that the retracement had no effect and had to make changes.

At the forefront, it becomes a single arrow.

Redfern laughed on the sidelines. He knew Rossi's characteristics, speed was not his advantage, and Jason Pierce's turn was not as slow as other tall central defenders.

If you want to be a bridgehead, you don't have the physical advantage, and your power is not as good as that of Komogant.

drop!

Leeds United broke the ball out of the sideline and prevented Wilson's breakthrough.

Eddie Howe picked up the ball that went out of bounds, took it in his hand, handed it to right back Francis, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Francis, who understood the situation, threw the ball and quickly stepped in, forming a numerical pressure on the wing with Wilson.

The Bournemouth team gave up the protection of the wide space on the wing and allowed full-back Francis to move forward to a deeper position, instantly forming a numerical advantage on the right wing.

Leeds United's defensive midfielder Bianchi was suddenly faced with the important task of marking two areas. He jumped left and right for a while.

Wilson saw this opportunity and quickly passed the ball to Harry Arter in the ribs.

Midfielder Bianchi jumped left and right and made a mistake in judgment, giving Harry Arter in the ribs an opportunity to easily get the ball and turn around.

The Leeds United team woke up and hurriedly double-teamed the defense, immediately restricting his path to the ball.

But Harry sent a through ball forward at a faster speed.

Oops!

If it were Wilson here, it would be difficult for the defender to follow him.

Huh?

When Redfern saw the number 14 behind the player on the front end, he breathed a sigh of relief.

If this is Comergant or Wilson, they will have to move forward and pose a threat.

As for Rossi?

Combat handicap and speed handicap, combined, do not pose a threat.

Before Harry passed the ball, he had already seen Rossi on the through line.

He doesn't need to care whether Rossi is offside, he just needs to pass the ball.

[Harry passed the ball, Luo was not offside, and the defender was chasing back, creating a one-on-one situation.]

Single sword?

Is there any mistake? Does he have the speed to escape?

Rossi picked up the ball nearly ten meters in front of the penalty area, more than thirty meters away from the goal line. Defender Jason's turn was not slow. How could he not catch up?

After Rossi took the ball and entered the penalty area, facing the attacking goalkeeper, he passed the ball between the goalkeeper's legs and rolled into the net.

The goalkeeper immediately blamed defender Jason. How was he marking him?

【GOAL!!!!】

[Beautiful anti-offside, it’s incredible. At this moment, Rossi’s starting speed instantly got rid of the defender’s marking.]

[What's going on? Luo's speed is not very fast. But when he runs in reverse, Jason really can't catch up.]

[Is it a lack of concentration? This is a serious mistake by the defender.]

[The score is now 2:3, and the home team Bournemouth has pulled a goal back. There are nearly ten minutes left in the game, so there is still a chance.]
