--------------------------
Lucio, the iron defender, has obvious advantages, but he also has obvious shortcomings. Compared to the other two central defenders, he is slightly mediocre. Lucio can be a god or a devil.
No matter how inconspicuous the other central defenders of the Brazilian team are, they do not have any major weaknesses. It is obviously too naive to rush and hit hard to kill the Brazilian team.
Under the premise that the England team does not invest too much offensive force, attacking in the east and west will not achieve the team effect.
Aldrich could only settle for the second best, give up on the overall strategic victory, and work hard on the details.
The purpose of playing hard on the right was to suppress Carlos, force Carlos to defend, and reduce support for Ronaldinho. It also had the purpose of paralyzing Lucio.
Just like Southgate did, Southgate filled in for Ferdinand, Butt, and Ashley Cole, helping to defend, one by one.
But when Southgate was attacked head-on by aliens, he seemed a little unable to withstand it.
It's not that Lucio can't stop him, but it just disrupted his thinking during the game. He had been filling in for Edmilson for more than 30 minutes to assist the defense there, and suddenly the focus of the attack shifted to him.
Both Edmilson and him will be caught off guard. The former may be delayed in realizing his replacement, while the latter must immediately change his thinking. Once his brain gets hot, he may make a big mistake.
This defender, who has performed well in Leverkusen for a year and a half, really did not collapse under the pressure all of a sudden.
McManaman made an emergency stop in front of him, and Irving also stopped running inside. Lucio immediately gave up the idea of attacking. As expected, McManaman and Irving played a one-two.
If Lucio rushes forward rashly, behind him is the long corridor to the sky where McManaman went to the meeting alone!
Without losing his position, Lucio turned around in time to steal the ball before McManaman extended his foot, and then made a big-foot clearance.
Scolari breathed another sigh of relief.
The England team cannot make waves!
Just when he was relieved, a minute later, a scene that he couldn't accept appeared.
Lucio really understood at this time.
England's offense is targeting him, and even its defense is targeting him!
After a backcourt attack was ended by him, he controlled the ball and prepared to attack, but he was unwilling to make a big clearance.
McManaman was on his right, blocking his path to the right. Irving ran from Edmilson's side to grab the ball from him, and Scholes stood in front of Kleber.
Near Sen, Lucio suddenly panicked. Most of the recent short passing routes were blocked, so he took the ball two steps forward. He did not dare to stick to the ball too much, and passed it when he saw Silva.
The defensive strategy of the England team has actually appeared in previous games, but it is not the England team that is using it, but Sweden!
By applying local pressure, predict the opponent's passing route, and then carry out premeditated interceptions.
Before Silva caught the ball, Beckham didn't expect Beckham behind him to rush up, stretch his foot to intercept the ball before him, and rushed forward directly!
When Lucio saw that his pass was wrong, he immediately lost his mind and rushed forward to block Beckham.
When Scolari saw this, he suddenly lost his voice and said: "Don't go in!"
It was originally an opportunity for the Brazilian team to launch an attack from the back line. Other players were stretching their formation to respond. However, the England team did not press Lucio. It was just a gesture. The England team, which had the advantage in the midfield, just waited.
After he passed the ball, what happened after it was intercepted?
Need I say more?
A thunderous strike of course!
When Lucio was rushing forward, the figure behind him cut into the space in the middle of the Brazilian team's back line. Not to mention that the entire audience knew it. It was this figure that caught up with the wind and injured France four years ago.
Eagle, made a young genius famous?
The golden boy Irving looked back while running. Beckham's pass came as expected. It was an overhead ball that was not high from the ground and just passed Lucio's head. The speed was not particularly fast. Lucio
Ao looked up at the ball flying behind him. He turned around and wanted to catch up, but he could only watch the ball getting farther and farther away. It seemed that the ball could still talk, mocking his mistakes and ridiculing his recklessness.
, luring him away to the cliff of sinners!
Irving had the same movement as he did when he unloaded the ball in his shocking attack four years ago. He moved with the instep of his mid-foot to catch the falling ball skillfully. The ball was flexibly controlled by his feet, integrating with the rhythm of his running.
Then, Golden Boy accelerated, entered the penalty area, and went to the meeting alone!
All the spectators at Saitama World Cup Stadium couldn't help but stand up, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people breathless.
Aldrich's fists were clenched and his nails had scratched his skin.
Scolari was stunned and terrified.
The golden boy Owen faced the Brazilian goalkeeper Marcos. Owen knew that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. This opportunity seemed to be accidental, but in fact it consumed almost all the tactical layout of England since the beginning!
If you miss this, you won't do it again!
Never!
The mysterious perception from the depths of his soul made Owen realize: This is perhaps the most important, most precious, and most unmissable opportunity in my life!
Regret, regret, regret... England has never won the European Cup. England has only won the Hercules Cup by relying on the controversial goal line of local competition. Countless ancestors, no matter how amazing they are in the great wave of an era,
Even though she was so beautiful, she could not avoid the regretful ending in the national team competition!
Owen's eyes were firm, and a sentence echoed in his mind.
"Fight against Brazil and have no regrets!"
No regrets! No regrets!
Bang!
A crisp and firm shot came from Irving's feet. The flying fireball flashed past Marcos' eyes like a meteor. He did not make any save action, and his running action of abandoning the goal came to an abrupt end.
, the stadium stands that erupted like a tsunami had already told him the result, but he still slowly turned his head and looked around without giving up. The ball rolled out of the goal. It rolled out from inside the goal...
The boy who chased the wind stopped chasing the wind. He ran to a position near the corner flag area. He lay on his back on the turf, held his head in his hands, and smiled slightly stupidly. Other England players rushed over, sliding to their knees or lying on the ground.
They swooped around Owen, hugged Owen's head crazily, and kissed him uncontrollably.
"Yeah!"
On the sidelines, at the coach's bench, the man known as the most handsome man in the coaching world had a ferocious look on his face, clenching his fists and roaring uncontrollably.
The Three Lions broke through the gate of the Seleção!
Aldrich, he didn't smile, he only roared, like a lion roaring, declaring war on the world!
I came, I saw, I conquered!
Although the game is not over yet, Aldrich has made the "possibility" become real and tangible!
Aldrich has always had ambitions, always has!
Conquer all the heroes in the world and step onto the throne!
Without this ambition, he would not be where he is today. Without this ambition, he would just drift with the crowd and lose sight of everyone!
In fact, judging from the content of this game watched by most top coaches, Aldridge has already defeated Scolari. Regardless of the initial layout or on-the-spot command and decision-making, Aldridge is better than Scolari.
But so what?
There is no word "glory in defeat" in Aldridge's philosophy. He likes to do things to gain fame, but on the court, he only likes to win.
"Owen! Owen! The England team broke through the door of the Brazilian team, and the scorer was Michael Owen! He is England's hero. His goal is likely to lead England back to the World Cup finals after 36 years!"
The Brazilian team did not expect that the English team would take the lead in breaking through their city gate.
Although it seemed that Lucio's passing error was caused by interception and counterattack, there was a feeling in their hearts of "no regrets for the loss".
Ronaldinho had a sullen face, not very happy.
He is not a utilitarian in the field of sports. This utilitarianism does not mean that he does not care about money, but that his attitude and pursuit of playing football are different from the mainstream.
There are many players who play to win.
Ronaldinho plays football for fun.
For the former, as long as he wins, he will be happy, but for Ronaldinho, this is not necessarily the case. He feels that playing is not fun. Even if he wins, so what? He still won't be happy.
The Brazilian team's performance in the first half made him unhappy.
Too utilitarian, or in other words, Scolari's pragmatism was clearly inferior to Aldridge's.
Aldridge is indeed conservative sometimes, even in Millwall, but just his risk-taking attitude can make Ronaldinho feel depressed for an hour, but it is worth it!
The Brazilian team lost the ball, and Scolari gave tactical instructions on the sidelines, asking the team to attack!
There are less than 5 minutes left before the end of the first half.
Scolari judged others by his own example. He believed that the young coach was ahead by a goal and would definitely do his best to defend the 1:0 score in the first half, and then make adjustments in the midfield.
But he was wrong. If he had changed his opponent to another opponent, Aldrich would have definitely made the team retreat and hit Brazil instead. No!
He does not retreat, and masters compete with each other. In addition to not making mistakes, the most important thing is: what the opponent wants, he does not give him anything!
Why did Aldridge pay attention to the game and seize the opportunity to decisively adjust the team's game attitude?
It is nothing more than to disrupt the Brazilian team's offensive rhythm, not to allow the opponent to continue to press and attack, and not to make the opponent's offense smoother and smoother. It is to beat the opponent and make them panic and confused.
It's the same now. The Brazilian team will definitely attack in order to equalize the score. The English team does the opposite and still refuses to retreat. It continues to guard the midfield, press crazily and catch the counterattack!
This is completely different from the situation before scoring, and it comes from the mentality!
Before the goal, the Brazilian team really pressed forward, and Aldridge would definitely order the team to retreat. However, the Brazilian team lost the ball, and their mentality fluctuated, which would make the organization of the offense not as efficient as before.
Aldridge waved his hand and ordered the team to continue maintaining the game attitude before the goal.
This time, it was really a close fight with the Brazilian team in the midfield!
The Brazilian team is indeed a little impatient when attacking, and there is a tendency to disconnect between the midfield and the backcourt. This is completely different from the previous disconnection between the frontcourt and the midfield. Now, their lives are really hanging by a thread!
Cafu passed the ball to Rivaldo, who just passed Lampard and was poked away by Scholes. Ashley Cole rushed up and passed the ball straight to McManaman in front.
McManaman dribbled the ball straight in and attracted Junior to defend in front of the penalty area. Lampard stepped in and McManaman made a cross. Lampard received the ball and then played a one-two with Scholes.
, Lampard, who single-handedly entered the penalty area, got the ball and kicked the ball without stopping. Marcos flew and failed to touch the ball.
Everyone thought that the ball would definitely go in, but Lampard failed to make a wider arc, and the ball missed the far post and flew out of the baseline.
There was a huge sigh, and then England fans applauded the team.
"What a pity. We almost extended the score to 2:0, but we still have to praise the performance of the England team. This is the attitude of a mature team. There are many teams that are ahead in the strong dialogue but don't know it.
How the game should be played, the England team showed determination and a very unified mind."
"Of course, we have the best coach in the world, Aldrich Hall."
The Brazilian team wanted to counterattack but was almost stabbed again by the English team. Scolari was horrified to see it. The Brazilian team's defense was a little confused. In the last few moments, he did not do what he wanted and asked the team to take it back.
, collect yourself after halftime, and if you attack forward stubbornly, you might even get beaten by England again! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
