Chapter 336 The end point of Sporting Lisbon is the Westfalenstadion
But having said that, Kluivert, the founder of the modern center, is also really good at heading the ball.
In the 17th minute, Overmars challenged Barzagli on the wing.
His dribbling was even sharper than Quaresma's, and he changed directions directly and easily beat Barzagli alive.
Barzagli is very capable of one-on-one steals, but his disadvantage is that he is the slowest to turn among the three central defenders. He is actually not the best choice on the right wing, and his characteristics are very embarrassing.
As a central defender, his passing skills are a bit inferior, and his stealing ability cannot be used perfectly.
As a wide center back, he performed perfectly in tackling, but his shortcomings of slow turning were exposed again.
In fact, the four-back two-center-back system is more suitable for his performance, but Sporting Lisbon cannot change the formation just for him.
After Overmars passed Barzagli, before Deschamps came over to defend, he made a beautiful cross.
Kluivert jumped high. He was a little shorter than Fonte, but Fonte couldn't jump at all in front of his strong body and could only have some vague impact.
boom!
The football was slightly over the crossbar, only ten centimeters away from the goal.
Kluivert shook his head and looked at Font.
Font also noticed Kluivert's eyes, and then his face turned red.
They both know what the other means.
Kluivert: This central defender is the weakest link among Sporting Lisbon’s defense players! Just hit him!
Fonte: Damn it! They found out that I am the weakest one in the defense. What should I do? Master Kai, save me!
Yes, it's that outrageous.
What many people consider to be the most important position in the defense, the central defender, is indeed the weakest link in Sporting Lisbon.
This is the "perfect plan" that Trigla and Maxa finally made after studying for a long time.
As we all know, Fonte was one of the five generals behind Deng Kai in Sporting Lisbon's youth training team.
Later, he joined Moreirense with Deng Kai to compete in the Portuguese Liga, and now he is the number one Kai fan in the team.
After moving through many teams, Fonte and Deng Kai established a solid revolutionary friendship.
Based purely on strength, Sporting Lisbon's two original central defenders, Marcos and Facundo, are not weaker than Fonte. Forget it, to be honest, they are slightly better than Fonte.
And even if they are not considered, letting Pepe replace Fonte and then switch positions with Barzagli is the best solution for this team's defense.
But the key point is that Fonte cannot be ignored.
Fonte is a flag and a sign of respect for Deng Kai within the team.
Deng Kai takes the initiative to retreat in order for the team to give Viana, Quaresma and other players better room to perform. What are the prerequisites?
It is he who can feel absolute respect in this team.
The contributions are mutual.
If the team wins Fonte and doesn't respect Deng Kai's hidden privileges in this team, then Deng Kai will definitely not continue to compromise on the court.
At that time, conflicts between him, Viana, Quaresma and other players will break out.
And without him, Matthaus and Deschamps will not be so comfortable in defense, and the team's defensive strength will also decline.
So although Fonte is not important at all, it is important whether Fonte is allowed or not.
Facts have proved that Fonte’s Kaifen tactics were successful.
But for this level of harmony and respect, the team must bear the risk of being targeted by the opponent.
However, Deng Kai apparently also discovered this. He began to consciously let Deschamps appear more in the central midfielder position, and he was slightly to the right. This reduced Deschamps' area of responsibility, which not only reduced Deschamps' pressure, but also improved Deschamps' ability.
Still protecting the area in front of Fonte.
In the 22nd minute, Deng Kai passed the ball back to Deschamps and then pulled the ball himself.
After Quaresma retreated to receive Deschamps' pass, he cut directly in from the right rib position.
Forced Baljuan to give up Deng Kai and shrink inward to prevent Quaresma from passing through and directly breaking into the penalty area from the front.
boom!
Quaresma followed suit. While dribbling the ball from the front, he suddenly moved the ball with the outside of his right foot and passed it to Deng Kai on the wing.
The two outside instep kings both have a weird ability to separate sides at this position.
boom!
Deng Kai directly faced the football and passed the ball without stopping.
This kind of "hurry" approach is not allowed by most teams.
When there is space and time, the quality of passing the football steadily is at least two or three levels higher than passing the ball without stopping.
What's more, teammates often need time to move.
Of course, there are a very small number of team cores who are qualified and capable of playing this kind of spiritual football, which can suddenly accelerate the offense.
These details are all points that can reflect Deng Kai's true team status.
Inter Milan fans who previously clamored that Viana is the absolute core of Sporting Lisbon find it difficult to notice such details, or deliberately ignore such details and only see what they want to see.
"Deng Kai made a cross from the wing! This processing is very simple and fast, but in terms of accuracy..."
"The football was given so much that it was impossible for Drogba in the midfield to win the football. Viana, who came in from the middle, couldn't catch up. If Deng Kai waited and passed the ball, Viana would be a threat at this point.
"
"The pass was too big. The ball was passed directly to the back point...De Boer is at the back point. He is going to confiscate the ball. He...Cristiano Ronaldo!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo is so fast! He actually rushed to the position!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo jumped high! De Boer was careless. He wanted to directly control the football instead of making a clearance, so he didn't jump."
"Too high! Ronaldo's abdomen is pressing on De Boer's head, and De Boer has lost his ability to take off!"
"He's not jumping at all, he's just taking off!"
boom!
Cristiano Ronaldo took off from behind. Although the angle of the shot was not large, the victory was because goalkeeper Reina had just turned around and was not in a position to save.
Whoosh!
The football flies into the goal.
Ronaldo and De Boer fell to the ground at the same time, but the young Ronaldo turned over and roared at De Boer: "Roar!!!"
His chest was held high, as proud as a rooster.
DeBoer was still a little confused and had not fully recovered.
In addition, Drogba, Viana and other players came over immediately to celebrate with Ronaldo, so he had no chance to find fault with Ronaldo.
"GOAL!!!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo broke the deadlock for the team! The dark horse is really going to be dark to the end!"
"He yelled at DeBoer angrily, which was revenge for DeBoer yelling at him before!"
"This is also Ronaldo's tenth goal in this UEFA Cup! He has now surpassed his teammate Deng Kai and exclusively holds the honor of being the top scorer in the UEFA Cup!"
"He jumped too high! There was a haze over Barcelona because Cristiano Ronaldo was circling above them in a bomber!"
"CD connection! They successively attacked the goals of Inter Milan, Kaiserslautern, and Barcelona. This youth storm continues to rage. Is their end point really the Westfalenstadion, the final venue of the UEFA Cup?
