spn "Li Yu's twelfth goal shattered the Derby County people's dreams, and only nightmares remained in the following time!" After the game, the media always like to write this sentence in the most conspicuous place.
The following time was indeed a nightmare for Derby County. If the first goal opened a hole in their psychology, then what happened next would completely rub salt into the wound.
Derby County's defenders have exhausted 100% of their efforts. Their off-field tactics and their own strength are not enough to allow them to defeat Everton.
What's more, when their morale was low, "Watch that guy!!" Derby County's center back Todd shouted at his center back partner Leacock, signaling Leacock to watch Everton.
Another attacker, Johnson, moved toward Li Yu in an attempt to delay Li Yu from getting the ball.
At the same time, Pienaar is also trying his best to move forward to ensure that there is a certain distance between him and Li Yu, so as to facilitate small cooperation in the frontcourt.[
Derby County's defense has to be comprehensive. Every Everton frontcourt player must have a corresponding person to mark it. Derby County guys are quick and fierce, but they always leave people with a sense of recklessness in defense.
Typical of the English Championship is defense, which may also be the main problem where they conceded the most goals in the first ten rounds.
The change of the team's style cannot be changed overnight or by changing the coach in a short period of time, especially in the Premier League, a place where football is very conservative. The British themselves are not good at changing. Derby County wants to complete the change from the British team in one summer.
The transformation of a championship team into a Premier League team is impossible.
Todd was still as fierce and decisive as he was in the British Championship. He always wanted to kill his opponent with one kick. Now that he was playing in the Premier League, he was destined to suffer a loss. Li Yu found out that the opponent had made a move, dunked the ball, and kicked it outwards.
Dial, changed his route, simple and practical is Li Yu's current style, very practical, isn't it?
He passed Todd easily. The slippery field on a rainy day made it impossible for the tall Derby County center back to quickly chase back. With a distance of 2 meters, Todd looked back on the grass and witnessed a subtle move.
The three-man frontcourt cooperates.
After Li Yu got rid of the ball, he continued to dribble forward. Derby County's left-back Naiya international player Kamara, who is known for his speed, immediately covered up the defense. However, the opponent he faced did not compete with him for his foot speed, but used his foot speed to compete with him.
Knocking back with his heel to teammate Pienaar behind him.
"Oh my god, there are eyes behind his back!" Kamara exclaimed in her heart. She didn't know how this orientalist who was younger than herself did it. After marveling, the dilemma made the Guinea international player commit a crime.
The dilemma is whether to chase Li Yu or step forward to block Pienaar, "What do these guys in the midfield and frontcourt do? The opponent's playmaker didn't follow up!"
I was full of complaints, but I still had to make my own choice. If I continued like this, there would be no need to defend myself.
In the end, Kamara chose to chase the ball away. His idea was relatively simple. Everyone knew that Li Yu was a threat, but that kid didn't have the ball. It didn't matter how threatening he was. He had to do what he wanted.
It's very simple, block Pienaar's path for Li Yu to play the ball.
Pienaar found that his African compatriots were doing a good job in defense, but he calmly started riding a bicycle, pretending to want to break through.
Who said that only skilled Brazilians can ride bicycles? Pienaar, the South African international, also pedaled well. The Ajax youth training product certainly did not disappoint. He pedaled two bicycles and was just what everyone thought South Africa was going to do.
While working alone, the ball suddenly passed to Johnson's feet. Johnson, who was entangled with Leacock, leaned on the defender, grabbed the ball with his back, and stepped on the ball with one foot. God knows what he was going to do!
The answer was soon revealed. Johnson, who had stepped on the ball, was waiting for Li Yu's movement. He spotted Li Yu's position with his peripheral vision, exerted force with his feet, and made another heel pass.
If this were Everton's home stadium, there would have been thunderous cheers. Regardless of whether the ball entered the final field or not, the cooperation in the frontcourt was extremely exciting, and the fans would not begrudge their applause and shouts.
"Don't let that kid kick his feet!" Derby County coach Davis shouted instantly, and he felt threatened.
In fact, the Derby County defensive players on the field knew without the coach's shouts that they could not let Li Yu calmly start from this position. Central midfielder Oakley jumped up hard to block Li Yu's shooting angle, already holding his hands in the air.
Oakley, who had a good back of his head, did not feel the impact of the ball. "No, where is the ball?"
Oakley quickly looked for the ball after it landed. At this time, the ball had already been passed to Arteta by Li Yuqing in the back row. Oakley felt that he was trying to catch the eye, so he jumped up high to block it.
The Spaniard's shot had a really long jump distance between the two shots.
Still didn't feel the pain in his back, "fk! I'll never jump again!" Oakley just finished scolding and found out that the Evertonians played a delicate little cooperation in the penalty area, Arteta and Li Yu
After the two went 2-1 at close range, Li Yucai really shot the ball.
Derby County goalkeeper Bevot, who was all focused on the Spaniard, never expected that Arteta would choose to pass the ball. It was too late to move his position. The save without stepping on the ground failed to block the shot, and the ball came again.
Scored Derby County's goal, 1-2, Everton finally took the lead in the second half.
"It's so beautiful!" Moyes finally saw the frontcourt cooperation he wanted. The continuous passes were very clever and practical, especially the two back-heel passes, which fully demonstrated the tacit understanding between the frontcourt players.
The biggest gain from this game may not be that after falling behind and then leading by 3 points, it is that the frontcourt players finally have a tacit understanding.
Derby County fans really have nothing to say. They can't even scold them. For such a beautiful goal, it's fine without applause. They really can't do it if they are asked to curse.[
Watching several Everton frontcourt players hugging each other excitedly to celebrate the goal, Derby County fans really felt bad. It would be great if the young player No. 22 could wear a white shirt!
The first handful of salt was sprinkled in the 21st minute of the second half. If the Derby County players could bear the pain this time, then the second sprinkle was not salt, but paprika.
The Iron Man couldn't help but throw in such a toss, and the second handful of chili powder was none other than Li Yu, who made Derby County fans envious and jealous.
The Everton players, who had taken a one-goal lead, wanted to stabilize the situation on the field, but the Derby County players began to have trouble. Their physical fitness began to have problems. The price of the crazy attack in the first half appeared when morale was low.
, said it was a huge blow to Derby County.
Everton is actually not that good, but they can persist better than Derby County. Sometimes in football matches, they support with one breath. At this time, the Derby County players' breath was deflated, but Everton scored two goals in a row.
But he brought it up, compared them two by two, and argued.
Derby County's offense couldn't start, and the anxious head coach replaced two people in an attempt to change the offensive situation. The new force came on the scene, and it did drive a little bit of offense. But the problem is, if there are two new forces in the attack, then
If the attack fails, let Everton counterattack?
The Derbyshire men had no way to retreat, but they failed to show the courage to break the boat. They could neither advance nor retreat. Instead, their entire formation was opened up by their own attacks.
The scene that Everton is happy to see has appeared. They did a good job defensively in the first half, but now under the same conditions, Derby County's offense is really nothing. Since they played well, they can't blame Everton for counterattacking.
.
The team's tactical change was quickly completed, but this time Li Yu was not just left waiting for opportunities in front, Johnson and Pienaar were also waiting for opportunities.
Without waiting long, the opportunity came. Derby County's eager long-range shot was firmly held by Everton goalkeeper Howard, who immediately ran forward two steps and quickly kicked the ball.
The ball crossed the midfield and went directly to Derby County's half. At this time, Everton's three-man attacking combination had to face only Derby County's 3 defenders and a defensive midfielder, 3 vs. 4.
The opponent's center back, Leacock, hit him hard with his body. He wanted to win an overwhelming victory in the fight with Li Yu, but unexpectedly, Leacock felt as if he had knocked down a wall.
, it hurt, it hurt, it still hurt, but Li Yu didn’t move at all after being hit.
"This kid is so inhuman. It's hard to believe that this guy knows kung fu!" Leacock has a rich imagination. The first time he thought of the Bruce Lee movie he saw, Bruce Lee looked lean, but in fact his whole body looked like
They are all made of steel and iron, and no matter how many tall and mighty Western men are there, they are no match for them. After thinking about them, I really believe them.
Li Yu unloaded the ball from his chest to his feet, passed the ball across to his partner Johnson, turned around and ran away. That speed was so fast!
"Sure enough, he is a player who has practiced Chinese Kung Fu. It's so unfair!" Leacock, whose shoulder was still aching, became more certain of his thoughts.
Leacock felt defeated at first, and even less confident when he chased back. He felt that he couldn't catch up at all, and he couldn't even use 80% of his usual speed.
Li Yu's position can only be filled by the defensive midfielder, 3 versus 3!
Li Yu kept accelerating and ran. He was not running blindly in a straight line. He was looking for openings for the defensive players and pushed forward resolutely.
Johnson did not struggle with Todd, who was guarding him. The ball quickly transitioned to Pienaar's feet. The South African was observing Li Yu's movement before he got the ball. Li Yu started to move forward, and his pass was just right.
Already kicked out.
Before the ball landed, Li Yu didn't give the opponent's midfielder a chance to block it, and directly met the ball while running and volleyed it.
The action was completed in one go, and the ball did not spin in the air at all. The Derby County goalkeeper could not judge the final landing point of the ball at all. It was floating irregularly. There was no other way, so the goalkeeper had to throw his body out and try to expand his defensive area.
With a "boom" sound, and accompanied by exclamations from the fans at the scene, the ball hit the shoulder of Derby County goalkeeper Bewater and went into the net.[
At 1:3, Li Yu performed a hat trick and scored consecutive goals after his comeback. There was no suspense about Everton's victory. They were just waiting for the referee's whistle to take away 3 points!
