Scolari has just finalized a new plan in his mind, intending to let the Brazilian team press forward with a stormy offensive in the 40th minute of the game...
The 5 minutes before the start and end of the first half, which totals 20 minutes, is the best time for a change of pace.
In the five minutes after the start, players tend to lose concentration or not enter the game state. In the five minutes before the end, it is due to fatigue and the loss of concentration at the end of the game half. This kind of mistake is made by many second-rate and even first-rate players.
Any team can make this mistake.
What Scolari didn't expect was that a change occurred in the arena that he was paying close attention to, which caught him off guard and even shocked him!
The Three Lions suddenly pressed forward again as a whole, regained control of the midfield, and quickly launched a thunderous offensive!
England, which had always attacked on the right before, still firmly played on the right. This time, with the forward pressure of the overall formation, they obviously invested more troops in the attack on the right and patiently made two transition transitions.
.
When McManaman again controlled the ball between Edmilson and Carlos, the Brazilian team already had an experienced defensive system and naturally surrounded him. The other players also subconsciously performed routine defense.
.
McManaman made a cross pass, Scholes received the ball, protected the ball and turned around to get rid of Silva's defense. At this time, Irving made a move to get behind Edmilson. Edmilson was a little struggling because after the ball,
McManaman seemed to be moving towards him.
As for the other defensive player in the middle of the midfield, Kleberson subconsciously turned his head to observe what was going on behind him.
Before, Lampard would push forward. This is what should happen at this stage of the development of England's attack.
However, Kleberson was surprised to find that Lampard was staying in the left area of the center circle. He turned around and looked towards his defense area, only to see Lucio taking steps to help defend Edmilson!
Scholes pushed the ball slightly horizontally, and then used his body to block Silva's path to intercept. A figure ran up from behind, setting off a frenzy of screaming women in the stands of the Saitama World Cup Stadium.
The heartthrob Beckham is here!
The Brazilian team's defense looked like they were seeing ghosts, and many people's pupils shrank.
How did he get killed?
At this time, they belatedly remembered that when the Brazilian team analyzed their opponents, Beckham was originally a point in the offense, which in itself subverted their understanding of Beckham.
The Xiaobei they know and understand should be a right-wing heavenly master, a master who can impress the world with one kick of his arc, rather than someone who does dirty work and does hard work without seeking knowledge and knowledge, and who silently pays for the princes!
But for more than half an hour in the first half, except for a few long passes from the backcourt, they almost forgot that there was a player in England named Beckham.
At this time, Beckham came up and came directly to the front midfielder area. In front of him, the middle door was wide open!
Lucio went to help defend. Junior was about to take over, and Lucio himself immediately braked and rushed back to his own center. The Brazilian team was blocking Beckham's path forward.
Silva and Kleberson were also attacking Beckham.
Just when Lucio was about to run back to his position, a chill suddenly appeared behind him.
Someone ran forward from behind him!
who?
Scholes!
Lucio didn't have time to turn his head to look, but Edmilson had already noticed Scholes and followed him immediately.
At the same time, Beckham's pass arrived as expected.
Lucio and Edmilson turned around and looked shocked!
Edmilson expected that Beckham would pass the ball directly to Scholes, but Beckham missed it. Unexpectedly, he passed the ball over the top and bypassed the Brazilian team's back line and fell to the bottom line of the penalty area!
The direction was indeed towards Scholes, but the ball passed over Scholes' head.
Edmilson knew what was going on without even thinking.
Behind him, Irving ran horizontally toward the center of the penalty area, and McManaman received the ball in front of the baseline.
This wave of England's offense was simply superb, but Edmilson and Lucio's sudden stops and starts were about to collapse under the intense pressure!
McManaman caught Carlos behind him, and after stopping the ball, he swept the ball towards the goal without hesitation. Two people responded in the middle!
Owen, Scholes, two ghosts hit the door!
Scholes stretched his foot first and tried to score the goal with a clever shot. Unfortunately, the angle was too small and Marcos blocked it with his body, but the ball was still in the penalty area.
Irving took advantage of the situation and kicked the ball towards the goal almost with his eyes closed.
Lucio fell to the ground desperately and slid in front of Irving. This sometimes impetuous and reckless defender even knocked his own goalkeeper to the ground!
Irving's shot hit Lucio who was lying on the turf, and the ball popped up again. Irving wanted to chase it. Junior, who rushed over, ignored everything and made a clearance with his big foot horizontally. The ball flew out of the sideline.
Straight to the stands!
The handsome young man chasing the wind bowed slightly, clenched his hands into fists, lowered his head and roared ferociously.
He missed his best opportunity!
Irving was annoyed why he didn't spike the ball to adjust!
In that case, avoid Lucio.
Although the England fans in the stands sighed, the cheers that followed became even more overwhelming!
The England team played a wave of attack that was no less impressive than the previous aliens who almost scored.
The battle was really exciting and exciting!
Aldridge saw that the ball had not been scored, but he still applauded the players calmly!
England can play such an offensive, but space still plays a role. Like Beckham's over-the-head through ball, Brazil can't pass it in the frontcourt. It's not that they don't have the ability, but they don't have space, let alone this kind of offensive movement.
It disrupts the effectiveness of the opponent's defensive deployment.
Brazil is strong and England is weak, but the competition is not one-sided. Brazil has an advantage and so does England. It just depends on who can take advantage of it!
Scolari was frightened for a while.
However, he still had some luck in his heart. Did the England team have the same idea as him in pressing forward? Did they try to press forward in the last period of the first half?
It is important to act first and act second. It is also critical.
In this game, England controls the overall direction of the game. Now that England is attacking, the Brazilian team cannot face the confrontation head-on. Scolari simply follows the trend and closes the formation to induce England to engage in a positional battle.
However, when Scolari saw England's side kick coming out and finishing the attack with an unreliable long shot, he was confused again.
Young Marshal, which one are you playing at?
Press forward. No positional warfare?
Speaking of which, even though Scolari is a famous Brazilian coach, he has never coached in Europe. Before coaching Brazil, he stayed in Brazil. As for his previous coaching in Asia, that can be ignored, which is obviously out of line with the trend.
When the England team launched a tactical layout of crazy pressing in the midfield, Scolari did not react immediately because it felt a bit strange to him. It was not clear what medicine England was selling.
If you don't engage in positional warfare and just press forward and mix things up locally. If you want to take chances, then Scolari really has nothing to fear. The first 20 minutes of the first half have already proved that England's approach is useless.
.
After England pressed forward, they regained the midfield advantage. Naturally, they relied on the large number of people. Especially the Brazilian team's double midfielder was not good at controlling the overall situation. They did not dare to take the ball at their feet and attacked forward. They encountered a powerful sniper from England's stationed midfielder.
Losing momentum is excusable.
To take the initiative to break the game, either the Brazilian team must tactically move forward regardless of the defense, or the stars must perform at their peak individually.
It's a pity that Scolari was still a little timid on the basis of a draw, and did not dare to easily order the players to regain the midfield. He pressed forward tit-for-tat, and had a fierce battle with the England team in the midfield. Each opened its life goal, and whoever rushed
After midfield, whoever is riding away will seduce the soul and kill him!
At this time, many top coaches who were paying attention to this game were secretly shaking their heads.
Scolari holds the good cards that Brazil is the envy of the world, and he is indeed playing well, but there is still a gap between him and the young marshal in terms of style and courage.
England dared to attack, but the Brazilian team retreated and wanted to win steadily. This principle of wealth and wealth is sought in danger. It seems that Scolari has never struggled in the most brutal stadium in Europe. It is really unbelievable.
Understand!
However, England came forward to attack with such ferocious momentum. Where exactly was the murderous intention? Not many people could understand clearly.
Not investing in field battles already seemed deviant. The young marshal's unique style was highly praised by many people. They guessed that England might really have a murderous intention at this moment, but he hadn't seen the way out yet.
Two minutes later, the England team intercepted the ball in midfield and launched a counterattack. This time, they did not go to the side and went straight to the center!
England's midfielder presses forward, and Brazil cannot stop it!
Why?
Trident doesn't defend!
As far as midfield strength is concerned, the England team is superior.
The England team's frontcourt offensive team no longer stretched out, which also made the Brazilian team's defense a little confused.
The back line shrank urgently, Lucio's eyes were solemn, and he felt a little unbelievable.
The opponent's McManaman dribbled the ball and unabashedly rushed towards his central defense zone!
England, what are you doing?
Lucio was horrified when he saw the movement of the opponent's players.
McManaman was attacking from the front, Owen stabbed his ribs diagonally, Scholes also stabbed his ribs diagonally, three sharp knives, left, center and right, all aimed in the direction, it was him, it was him, it was him, it was him Lu
Theo!
Moreover, these three sharp knives are layered in an orderly manner. Although McManaman is dribbling, he is only in the middle. Irving, who is closer to the penalty area, is in the front position on the left. The running route is obviously from Junior and Luci.
Austria cuts into the penalty area in the middle. McManaman is on the back right of Irving, attacking Lucio head-on. Scholes is on the back right of McManaman, and his running route cuts through Lucio and Edmilson.
in the middle!
Lucio gritted his teeth and couldn't care less about others at this time. He didn't dare to move, he didn't dare to block Irving's movement. If he moved, whether Scholes moved or McManaman drove straight in, he would
There is no way to save it!
Aldrich's eyes were as cold as a knife on the sidelines.
Throughout the first half, people watching the game all over the world thought that England was attacking Brazil's left wing, Edmilson.
In fact, the person we really have to deal with is Lucio, the most capable of the three Brazilian defenders! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
