Chapter 638: Teach the British a lesson!



"Did our defense succeed?"

The British fans in the stands were all worried when they saw Lin Quan chopping past his own players like he was chopping melons and vegetables.

Many people had even prepared for the worst, but what they didn't expect was that Lin Quan actually gave up and continued to break forward and passed the ball back.

"Haha, have you seen the strength of our steel defense line? Even Emperor Lin, who is good at passing people, can't do anything against our defense line!"

The British fans in the stands were heartened when they realized this was true.

It was as if they had achieved something remarkable.

On the England team's coaching bench, Southgate saw Lin Quan give up the attack, and his heart finally fell.

"It seems our method was successful!"

As the biggest threat in the Spanish team, as long as Lin Quan is guarded to death, it will be difficult for the Spanish team's offense to break through their door.

And as long as they can defend their goal, they will have the confidence to compete with the Spanish team.

The next thing they have to do is to tighten the fence and wait for an opportunity to counterattack!

As long as they can score one or two goals through counterattack, the victory of this game will most likely belong to them!

Southgate felt particularly excited when he thought that he would lead the England team, which was not expected by all parties before the game, to eliminate the favorite Spanish team in the World Cup semi-finals.

For coaches, this is a great opportunity to become famous!
……

On the Spanish team's coaching bench, Del Bosque sighed inwardly after seeing Lin Quan pass the ball back.

Although I know this is the most reasonable choice, I still feel a little disappointed in my heart.

Southgate has something special. He is worthy of being a defender. Under his training, England's defense has been greatly improved.

This gave Bosque a headache. The opponent's iron barrel formation itself was not easy to play. In addition, the opponent's coach was also good at defense. They must have put a lot of effort into defense and made sufficient preparations.

Del Bosque had a hunch that this game might be much more difficult than expected.

There was even a hint of fear in his heart of being upset and eliminated by the other party!

"No, it's still early and we still have the advantage on the court, so we can't give in so easily!"

Seeing Lin Quan's figure, Bosque's confidence recovered a lot.

Although there are many difficulties, as long as he thinks of Lin Quan's presence in the team, he will feel inexplicably at ease.

Southgate was also secretly paying attention to Bosque's performance. Seeing that Bosque was calm and calm about the situation on the court, he couldn't help but admire him secretly:

He is worthy of being one of the world's top coaches, and his magnanimity is enough for me to learn from him for a long time!

Although this attack failed, Lin Quan did not feel discouraged, but instead aroused his fighting spirit even more.

Whether in the league or in the national team, he has encountered countless incidents where opponents set up buses.

Among them, most of the games were eventually won by him and his teammates.

Although the Iron Barrel Formation is difficult to break, it is not completely impossible.

No matter how perfect the defensive tactics are, they ultimately rely on people to execute them. As long as they are people, they will definitely have weaknesses.

What he has to do is to patiently look for loopholes in the opponent's defense, and then give the opponent a fatal blow at the appropriate time.

In the next few minutes, Lin Quan tried a long shot from outside the penalty area to see if he could force the opponent's players out of the penalty area.

But the effect of this move was not very good. The opponent's forward Kane and midfielder Ali were both too tall.

Once the two men stood in front of Lin Quan, it would be difficult for his long-range shot to hit.

Even if the goal is scored, the penalty area is densely packed with people, and the football can easily hit the opponent's player's leg and then bounce back.

And even if his long shot overcomes these two obstacles, if the opponent's goalkeeper is well prepared, it will be difficult for his long shot to pose a threat unless it is a magic ball that combines speed, power and angle.

But that kind of ball is really difficult. The further away from the goal, the more difficult it becomes.

During this period, in addition to Lin Quan's long-range shots, David Silva, Busquets and even Pique and Ramos rushed up to try a kick.

The effects are almost the same, and neither of them poses a threat.

The England players on the field became more relaxed after seeing that the opponent's long-range shots could not pose a threat.

They have more confidence in their defense. It seems that the opponent really can't do anything to them?

Seeing that the long-range shot was not working, Lin Quan began to try to make a fuss with the set ball.

The Spanish team attacked a lot and the opponent committed a lot of fouls in defense, so Lin Quan tried several free kicks to shoot directly, but the effect was still not ideal.

First of all, the England team had prepared well before the game. When defending, players were very careful to avoid fouling in some dangerous areas. In this case, the free kick given to the Spanish team would not be a particularly good opportunity.

Either the distance is too far, or the position is too biased. In addition, the average height of the opponent is very high, and the interception effect of the human wall is very good. If you want to get over the human wall, it is easy to get higher than the goal.

So several attempts ended in failure!
Since a direct free kick was not possible, Lin Quan chose to hang into the penalty area and let his opponent compete for the header.

But the altitude of the Spanish team is a bit too low. Only a few people in the team are taller than 180, such as Diego Costa, Ramos, Pique, and Busquets.

Moreover, their height did not give them an advantage in front of their opponents, so this tactic quickly failed.

Whether it was a corner kick or a free kick, most of the balls thrown into the penalty area were cleared by the opponent's tall players, and the Spanish players did not get anything.

In this regard, the Spanish team has tried some conventional tactics to break the intensive defense one by one.

But they were still helpless against their opponent's defense.

This result made Southgate, the England coach on the sidelines, completely relieved. He no longer even stood on the sidelines to watch the game. Instead, he returned to the coaching bench and sat down, taking out a small notebook to write and draw. It seems that he is recording his thoughts on this game.

In Southgate's view, as the game time goes by, the situation will become more and more favorable to the England team.

Because the average age of their opponents is older than them, there may be problems with their physical fitness in the second half.

Therefore, as long as it is delayed until the second half, after the opponent's physical fitness declines, and they use their physical advantage to launch several high-quality counterattacks, the probability of winning this game will be very high.

Even if they are unlucky and fail to seize the opportunity to score in the second half, delaying it to overtime will only be more beneficial to them.

In short, the further the game goes on, the greater England's chances of winning.

"The situation of the game seems to be a bit unfavorable to the Spanish team. 30 minutes have passed. Spain has completed 11 shots during this period, but only 2 shots were on target, and neither of them posed a threat. England The defense line seemed to be made of steel, which made the Spaniards sigh. "

Even the TV commentator could see the dilemma facing the Spanish team.

“They had better score in the first half, otherwise the situation in the second half will be very serious.”…

On the court, I saw that all methods were ineffective.

Lin Quan also began to think about it. The opponent's defense was actually not that good, but the number of people in the backcourt was too dense, especially in the penalty area. Where the five defenders stood was a huge trouble.

So we have to find a way to destroy the opponent's defensive formation, disrupt the opponent's defensive position, and make their defense line chaotic!

After thinking for a moment, he gradually came up with an idea:
Launch attacks to the flanks on both sides, mobilize the opponent's defender's position, and make use of the space leaked in the rib area during the opponent's movement.

After telling David Silva and Isco his thoughts, both of them supported Lin Quan's decision.

After all, other methods have been tried, and now we can only trust Lin Quan's judgment.

It was still the same as before, Lin Quan was still driving the ball forward.

The opponent's defensive players in the backcourt are too dense. Even if the Spanish team is a group of passers and control players, there are still not many who can hold the ball and pass it out under the opponent's high-intensity pressing.

Lin Quan is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate, not only because he has the strongest ball protection ability, but also because he can break through, organize and pass.

The ball is the most threatening at his feet, so it is easiest to attract the opponent's attention, thus creating opportunities for his teammates.

Since Lin Quan is pushing forward from the center this time, Lingard and Ali are the first hurdles in front of him.

Although he is nicknamed the "King Lin" by fans, Lingard seems to have unrealistic illusions about his own strength.

When his partner Ali chose to defend, Lingard bravely rushed forward, and was passed cleanly by Lin Quan!

"Haha, this time the real King Lin beats up the fake King Lin!"

"Ah, is Lingard such a good person? Seeing him rushing forward so aggressively, I thought he had any real abilities, but this is what happened?"

"Nonsense, Lin Huang is the best running midfielder among the attacking midfielders, the most aggressive attacking midfielder among the defensive midfielders, and the most selfless among the forwards..."

"Haha, brother, you are really a talent. You can do this well. Lingard will give you a thumbs up after hearing this!"

"Eh? It's not that Lingard scores less goals as a forward, is not good at passing and organizing as an attacking midfielder, is not fast enough as a winger, and has poor positional awareness when playing as a defensive midfielder. He often runs to attack and forgets to defend, which results in the team's failure. Colander? How come you have all the advantages?"

"There is an honest man here, come and bully him!"

"Haha, brother, you don't understand, this is the charm of journalism!"

"Zhang Xuefeng continues to improve his scores!"

Lingard on the court was also a little confused: Why is this guy so fast?
He felt that he was passed by the other party without even seeing the other party's movements clearly.

It’s really awesome!

But Lingard did not give up and immediately chased after Lin Quan.

Although he is not good at anything, his attitude in the game cannot be said. Anyone who has watched him play football will have an impression of him, that is, he likes to run and can run!

When Ali saw Lingard being passed, he secretly cursed a donkey in his heart, and immediately called for friends and teammates to help defend.

The successful defense just now allowed them to sum up their experience, that is, the best way to deal with Lin Quan is to attack together.

If you are one-on-one, you are giving him food. Lingard, who was beaten just now, and him, Sterling and Ashley Young are the best examples.

Lin Quan was overjoyed after seeing Ali's actions.

What we want is this effect. I am not afraid that you will shake people, but I am afraid that you will not shake them!
After seeing several England players approaching him at the same time, Lin Quan immediately distributed the ball to the rib area on the right.

As soon as the ball arrived, David Silva's figure appeared in Lin Quan's field of vision.

Ashley Young, who was supposed to be in this position, was taken away by Lin Quan, so another midfielder Henderson had to come over to fill in.

Just as Henderson was moving, Diego Costa, who was at the front, was also pulling to the right, seemingly wanting to meet David Silva who was rushing in with the ball.

As soon as he moved like this, the two central defenders of the England team immediately followed suit and did not give him any chance to catch the ball.

Under normal circumstances, the two central defenders and two defensive midfielders have been moved away, and England's defense should be very dangerous now.

But in this game, they deployed a five-back formation, which means that even if they deduct two central defenders, they still have three people on the back line and still have very sufficient defensive strength.

David Silva observed that although the opponent's defense was partially mobilized, it was not completely loose.

So he distributed the ball to the wing and handed it to Carvajal who came in behind. He continued to accelerate towards the penalty area and took away the England left back Ross who had been marking him.

When Ashley Young saw Rose being taken away, he immediately abandoned Lin Quan and ran to press Carvajal, trying to prevent him from completing the cross.

As soon as Ashley Young left with his front foot, Lin Quan suddenly accelerated with his back foot and rushed out from behind him.

Seeing Lin Quan's sudden acceleration, Ali felt bad and hurriedly grabbed Lin Quan's jersey with his hands to try to stop him.

But when he reached out, he found that he couldn't pull him at all. The other party was like a rampaging wild horse, easily breaking free from his restraints.

At that moment, Carvajal passed the ball.

Diego Costa in the middle and David Silva, who had already rushed to the penalty area, were outflanking the goal, attracting the attention of most people in the opponent's penalty area.

But Carvajal's pass was not in the middle of the penalty area, but in the corner on the right side of the penalty area.

Here, Lin Quan, wearing Spain's No. 10 jersey, rushed over. After receiving Carvajal's pass, he didn't even wait for the ball to hit the ground and volleyed directly.

The football is like a cannonball, whizzing towards the goal.

England goalkeeper Pickford was taken aback and fell to the ground to make a save.

But his movements were too slow, and Lin Quan's shot had already flown into the net before him.

In the 37th minute of the game, Spain scored first.

Rewrite the score to 1:0.
The English players on the pitch, the British fans in the stands, and Southgate sitting on the coach's bench were all dumbfounded after seeing Lin Quan score the goal.

The strongest line of defense they were proud of was actually breached!

After Lin Quan completed the shot, he didn't start running to celebrate until he confirmed that the football flew into the net and heard the referee's whistle to confirm that the goal was valid.

While running to celebrate under the stands where Spanish fans gathered, Lin Quan did not forget to comment on the England team's performance in the first half:

England's defense has something, but not much.

I believe that after seeing their goal, they should be able to know where the loopholes in their defense are and correct them!
Well, this can be regarded as teaching them a lesson! (End of chapter)
