Football’s First Defender

The locker room at halftime. The head coach obviously can't care about Yang Feng anymore. Compared with defense, how to find out the weakness of the opponent's defensive lineup and break the opponent's iron barrel is what the head coach needs to focus on in these 15 minutes!

As a team still struggling in the relegation zone, the opponent still has a huge gap with Zenit in terms of strength, and naturally cannot do everything in defense.

Just like a team like Sparta Moscow at the top of the list, they can't guarantee that their defense can withstand Zenit's offense. Zenit's offensive players are still full of confidence in scoring goals in the second half and even overtaking them!

Let go of the attack, especially the opponent's weakness, that obviously inexperienced young right back, he made two turnovers in the first half, let me stare at his side and attack, I don't believe he can survive the whole game game!

When the offensive players were being instructed, Yang Feng and Skrtel were warned by the defensive coach Ball.

Especially Yang Feng, you are a rookie on the field, maybe the opponent's counterattack will come directly to your side, so you must keep your attention on the field!

The team is now behind. If you want to win this game, there must be no more problems in the defense!

Listen to Skrtel's command more on the field. He has more defensive experience than you, which can make you better adapt to the rhythm of the game...

The 15-minute intermission passed quickly, and the players walked out of the lounge, recalling what the coach had said before.

Anyway, it's right to focus on their right side!

As the game began, Skrtel, as Yang Feng's senior, naturally played his part as a central defender in the back position, while Yang Feng was in front of him, responsible for blocking the opponent's counterattack as soon as possible. !

As the powerful Zenit of the Russian Super League, it is natural that they do not intend to dawdle until the opponent's physical strength is exhausted before launching a final onslaught.

The final decisive battle has already begun when the opening whistle sounded in the second half!

The two full-backs have already been used as an important part of the offensive tactics, stepping forward to put more pressure on the opposite side. Even Yang Feng, because the offensive players pressed too far, moved up the position according to the tactical requirements. In the opponent's half, while paying attention to defense, you also need to respond to some teammates' return passes to reorganize the offense!

Fortunately, the passes to teammates were delivered safely without any mistakes.

I'm not nervous! Well! Not nervous!

Zenit's siege finally blossomed in the 58th minute of the game!

This ball is Pogrebnyak! In the penalty area, it will compete with Kazan defender Pozov!

Here it goes! Pogrebnyak! The ball! Goes to the goal!

The goalkeeper takes off!

Goal! Goal! Pogrebnyak! He saved Zenit again!

His strong body! Once again, he firmly occupied an excellent position. Pozov's interference with him is really limited!

Although the header didn't fly to the dead corner, the goalkeeper's position is obviously off. The space left in the far corner is really too big!

But in addition to Pogrebnyak's wonderful header, the credit for this ball also belongs to the passer Arshavin!

As expected of us, the new tsar of Russian football! This ball Arshavin pretended to cut inside and successfully tricked Kazan's midfielder who was defending him full-time. Taking advantage of the time when the opponent lost his center of gravity, Arshavin successfully passed the high kick Quality passing!

Now the score is 1 to 1, and the two sides are back on the same starting line. There are still 30 minutes to play! I believe Zenit will definitely not want to get another draw at home!

Continue to attack! Keep the current offensive state! Our goal is to win! Attack! Attack!

After seeing the goal, Advocaat on the sidelines was very happy that the team could equalize the score early, but he still couldn't help but remind the players to keep attacking, and it is best to score the overtake goal when the opponent is confused!

Pity! Although it was equalized after taking the lead, the visiting team obviously knew how much they were worth. Even though the forward position was slightly ahead, it seemed that they wanted to try to counterattack and steal another goal, but the visiting team as a whole still maintained With the tactics of shrinking defense. It seems that one point is enough!

And as the game time came to 70 minutes. Perhaps Zenit's offensive players also need to take a breath, take a break, and accumulate a wave of stamina for the final general attack. Obviously, the suppression of the attack has begun to decline, and even Kazan has a chance to fight back again!

When Jin Dongjin stepped forward for an assist, the opponent directly leaned on his body and intercepted the ball. The opponent also directly threw a long pass, and threw it to the empty space left by Jin Dongjin!

Fortunately, the opponent is also a rough guy, and his passing skills still need to be improved, and his strength and accuracy are a little bit worse. The ball is directly under the control of Yang Feng who came to replace him. Because it was a small and fast winger who counterattacked, he couldn't interfere with Yang Feng's header.

Yang Feng didn't push the ball out of the boundary in a hurry, but with his neck and waist, he pushed the ball hard towards Timoshchuk who had returned from defense! Leave it to him to attack directly!

Zenit's attack! The full-back Kim Dong-jin has already stepped in, and the ball was allocated to Kim Dong-jin! The Kazan Ruby full-back rushed up and had physical contact with Kim Dong-jin!

This ball! The referee didn't blow it! The game continues!

Nizhkov, who snatched the ball from Jin Dongjin's feet, gave a big kick directly. Is this trying to counterattack directly?

Tchaikov, who has been cruising in the midfield, started and rushed to where the ball landed!

A rare counterattack opportunity for Ruby Kazan!

Yang, the Chinese Yang Feng has appeared!

As the team's central defender, Yang Feng, he has filled in the space left by Jin Dongjin in advance. This high ball seems to be in Yang Feng's pocket. As long as he does not make mistakes, Kazan's counterattack The chance is gone!

Jumped up the header, and did not choose to clear the siege directly, but confidently headed the ball back to Tymoshchuk who retreated!

Now it's Zenit's chance to attack again!

After completing the header, Yang Feng entered the theater mode again!

In terms of participating in the offense, there were a few corner kicks before. As a central defender, Yang Feng needed to go forward to fight for the header, but the opponent had more defenders. In the crowded penalty area, Yang Feng did not get the chance to head the ball!

In fact, in his first show, doing his defensive work well is the biggest victory!

Zenit's half-time offensive and defensive drills are still going on! From time to time there are continuous side attacks like a storm, or breakthroughs or long passes! Sometimes it is changed to penetrate slowly, trying to create a chance for Arshavin to pass through and complete the fatal blow! Sometimes I rely on long-range shots to hit luck, but unfortunately, any shots that can hit the goal will always be blocked by the defenders!

Zenit seemed to be just a little luck away from scoring, but the time was almost 80 minutes into the game!

This time it was Denisov's breakthrough again. When he was looking for a teammate in the middle of the inverted triangle, the central defender who was replaced by the opponent directly kicked the bottom line, a corner kick!

This is Zenit's 11th corner kick in this game. However, facing the many tall men in Kazan's lineup, Zenit's average height is obviously at a disadvantage. Even Pogrebnyak, who is physically strong, has It is difficult to get a chance when the opponent is double-teamed!

A corner kick is taken! Arshavin's ball is placed backwards!

There is still no chance! Nizhikov grabbed the spot and pushed the ball over the baseline! A corner kick from the other side!

It's already the 12th corner!

Ruby Kazan, today's set-piece defense is almost perfect, no mistakes!

The set-piece tactics arranged by Advocaat are the most common and practical ones, unlike the fancy set-piece tactics that some coaches are willing to use. After all, it takes time for the tactics to mature. It is better to train offensive tactics or Occasionally practice defensive tactics! But in this game, it was obvious that the opponent's defensive line of big guys restricted Zenit's set kicks to death!

Yang Feng decided to withdraw and moved to the penalty spot, because the physical confrontation was too fierce in front of the goal, under the crowded situation, and under the strong interference of the opponent's players, Yang Feng could not get a direct chance to compete for the top!

Fortunately, the opponent who had been shoving and shoving with Yang Feng saw that Yang Feng was out of the danger zone, so he didn't bother to follow Yang Feng out!

Is it the direction of the previous point?

Seeing Arshavin's gesture, the ball was going to be sent forward, and it should be for Skrtel. However, Yang Feng looked at the big Russian man next to Skrtel, and had some doubts about Skrtel's success. !

However, Yang Feng is also going to grab the front line. In the game of football, you can't give up any chance. Every inconspicuous offensive round may score a goal!

Arshavin's run-up!

The ball came out!

It should be earlier!

Is Skrtel from the front point? He is competing for the position with the Kazan central defender who is guarding him! Will he be able to compete successfully in the end?

The two are jumping!

ah!

Yang! Appeared!

He jumped higher than Skrtel and Yang got the header!

This is not an attack!

Yang rubbed back against the football!

The football flew to the back of the goal!

Empty door! Empty door!

GOAL! This goal is scored!

It's Pogrebnyak again! The late point hits the ball successfully! Since the goalkeeper is in the front point, the late point Pogrebnyak only needs to change the line of the ball and the ball touches the ball. Just half an empty goal! He did it! Zenit are ahead!

Let's watch the replay!

While Arshavin is passing the ball!

Yang Feng started to speed up from the penalty spot! This should be a miss by the Kazan player! After that, Sktel in the front point has been attracting the attention of all the defenders, covering for Yang Feng who is in the back! Then Yang Feng took off with all his strength, his head just reached the bottom of the ball, and he rubbed back hard to make the ball fly to the back point! Then Pogrebnyak only needs to hit the ball into the empty goal! This should be It was a corner kick tactic that Zenit had conceived for a long time! It was successfully implemented in the final stage! Zenit took the lead in the final stage!

The rest of the game is easy! When Zenit didn't have to work hard to attack and could concentrate on defense, the weak Ruby Kazan still couldn't make a big fuss in the away game, scoring two goals!

The game is over! Zenit defeated the visiting Rubin Kazan 2-1 at home! Pogrebnyak scored twice, which is the biggest contributor to Zenit's victory! But Zenit also failed in the game I lost my main central defender Eric Hagen. I don’t know if the Chinese teenager who performed well in this game can take over Hagen’s position and continue to surprise us! Thank you for watching and see you in the next game!”

Yang Feng's debut! He thinks he's passing!

It would be great if I could score in the first show! Unfortunately, there is only one assist! It's still a pass (ω)
