Red Rebels

Football tactics have been constantly evolving and improving. The most obvious one is that when the wide players who were once loved by the fans pass the ball, the powerful center jumps up high in the dense crowd like a green onion, facing the accurate goal. The cross ball hit the right spot, and the lion slammed the ball into the opponent's goal like a head shake.

In the past, there were many such powerful centers, such as the most famous forwards such as Bierhoff, Kreisbō, Vieri, and Palermo. They were all excellent header experts, but if they were allowed to Now playing under this tactical system, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to perform headers well.

Some people say that in today’s football tactics, the penalty area is the gallows. This makes sense.

The defensive system has very strict requirements on the positioning of players. If the positioning is strict, the practicality of headers will decrease. In addition, crosses from the side are never an efficient scoring method, so the tactical system tends to be overall and After becoming more rigorous, head coaches around the world naturally began to exclude crosses as an effective scoring method.

Instead, they cut inside from the wing, such as Ronaldo, Messi, Ribery and Robben.

But this does not mean that crosses have completely disappeared in the tactical system, but the people responsible for crosses have changed from the original full-backs and wingers to today's full-backs.

Alves still clearly remembers that the first training session he received after coming to the Red Rebels was crossing, and the person responsible for polishing his crossing skills was Darren Lyons, now the assistant coach of the England national team. His crosses are known within the team as not losing to Beckham at all.

But a very important reason why Darren Lyons's cross is so sharp lies in his mastery of the timing of the cross.

Today's football tactics are very strict. The most popular defensive line is a parallel position. The four defenders and the goalkeeper are like two parallel lines that are not connected to each other, and the area between these two parallel lines is the gap. , If you can use the cross to drop the ball into this area, you can maximize the tactical significance of the cross.

Where is the best place to pass the ball when counterattacking? Of course, the timing is as fast as possible. You must pass the ball to the gap before the opponent's defense line is arranged, so that your teammates can take advantage of it.

Alves is fortunate that he has not forgotten the training of Darren Lyons. He has always played according to the method he taught, including this time.

His sprinting speed is very fast. In terms of speed alone, he can indeed overwhelm Taiwo, but when carrying the ball, he does not have that confidence. Moreover, when he is carrying the ball, he always raises his head to observe. So when he saw Xixi Luo, Aguero and Messi all heading into the penalty area, he immediately realized that this was an opportunity.

Manchester United only had two players back in the box,

One is the right back Srna, and the other is Ferdinand. When Alves made a 45-degree cross from the right corner of the penalty area, the ball crossed an arc and went straight to the back point.

Adler was constantly moving to the left. He judged that the ball's landing point was probably between him and the defender, so he did not dare to attack rashly. After all, Srna and Ferdinand were back on defense.

The ball was obviously chasing Srna. The Croatian captain occupied a favorable position. With his height of 1.82 meters, he seemed to be sure to get rid of the ball, but Xixi Luo caught up from behind.

The two people took off almost at the same time, but Srna clearly noticed that the person next to him jumped higher than him, touched the ball earlier than him, and his head was squeezed by his body. It was very hard. His jumping ability and heading ability were far inferior to Xixi Luo, so he suffered a loss.

xixi Luo's header was very clever. He knew that Adler was coming to the left, so he deliberately hit it to the right, and it was a rebound ball. He felt that if nothing else happened, the ball should have been there. .

The ball did hit the ground and bounced towards the goal as Xixi Luo had guessed, but the moment it entered, the ball was knocked out with one hand, and then Adler was seen falling heavily to the ground. He fell to the ground and couldn't get up. It was obvious that the fall was not light.

Ferdinand caught up from behind and immediately caught up, trying to clear the ball with his big kick. But just when he was about to get within reach, a red figure rushed past him and rushed ahead of him. , facing the ball saved by Adler, he gently rubbed his inner instep.

The ball flew up wildly, passed through Adler, who fell to the ground, and hit the ball directly.

The referee undoubtedly blew the whistle that the goal was valid.

At this moment, the entire Bird's Nest stands were boiling, and all the Red Rebel fans stood up from their seats like crazy, stretched out their hands crazily, and shouted loudly

It's so exciting. This is simply a suffocating attack.

The offensive routine of the Red Rebels is really unpredictable, from Alves' 45-degree cross to Xixi Luo's header over Srna, although Adler showed great performance to save the ball. out, but Messi’s timely follow-up made it impossible for the German goalkeeper to do anything.”

This attack after attack is simply unstoppable. Although Manchester United's defense is very tenacious and has been very stable and solid since the beginning, it cannot withstand a test from the Red Rebels. A sharp counterattack is like a fatal blow. The dagger goes straight to the vital point of Manchester United”

Not only did the on-site commentator burst into praise, but even the guests also praised the goal.

From my point of view, what I appreciate most is neither Messi's agility and sense of complement, nor Xixi Luo's comprehensiveness when he beat Srna's header, but Alves' forward kick and pass. middle

Just before the goal, we were just saying that in this game Fabio defended Quaresma under tremendous pressure and failed to show his new Robert Carlos' offensive ability. Alves was under pressure Due to the restrictions of Robinho and Taiwo, the offensive performance was not obvious.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, you see, he used the simplest and most practical forward pass, an understated pass, and sent the ball to the most dangerous position, helping Xixi Luo complete an almost inevitable victory. The goal, although Adler saved the ball bravely, but you see, the Red Rebels' second attack immediately rushed in, and Messi grabbed the supplementary shot before Ferdinand.

Some people call this offensive method of the Red Rebels a bōlng attack, describing it as one bō after another, and one bō connected to another, like a torrential river, continuous, and like the Yellow River overflowing, unable to make a single move. tidy

After listening to the guests' ridicule, the on-site commentator burst out laughing, The game has been going on for 35 minutes, and I am very impressed by the two teams. At least they both represent the two top teams in today's football. The team’s strength and playing style, but these two teams are different and there are gaps.”

Manchester United's style is tenacious and the game is open and close. Although they were at a disadvantage during the game and were forced to engage in defensive counterattacks, they have rich counterattack methods and strong players. They did not lose to their opponents at all on the scene.

On the other hand, the Red Rebels have a steady and sophisticated style of play, with great technical skills. The scene seems to be flowing smoothly, and the players advance and retreat well. The whole team is natural and integrated, but the left back is indeed a flaw. Although Fabio has Talented, but not as good as Evra, but Alves used a forward pass and a cross to show us the strength of the Red Rebels' devilish wings.

It's hard to imagine that if Evra had been able to play in this game, would Manchester United have conceded earlier? Is the current score still only 1:0?

No matter how the on-site commentators and guests explained and ridiculed, the players on the field were busy with their own things.

I saw that after Messi scored, the Red Rebel players suddenly rushed to the coaching bench. Even the players on the bench rushed out one by one, and then they came to the stands behind the coaching bench. Below, they stood in a row, and then all the players held a candle high.

Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to Patrice Evra

The players sang the song wishing Evra a happy birthday in unison. At first, only the 11 starting players and 7 players on the bench were singing, but gradually, even the Red Rebel fans in the stands also sang along. Started singing.

The live TV camera focused on Evra, who was watching the game with his wife and children. There were several other Red Rebel players beside him, all singing happy birthday, but Evra's eyes were already red. He stood up and kept applauding his teammates in the stands and the fans in the stands, holding back tears.

Today is the birthday of fourth captain Patrice Evra. We are honored to witness this unique birthday party. Mourinho said before the game that this is a game that belongs to Evra. Now we see Red Rebels players scoring goals to celebrate the birthdays of their teammates.”

The on-site commentator was obviously moved by the atmosphere in the venue, and he couldn't help but lean towards the Red Rebels when explaining.

This is indeed an impressive team. They can always make people feel a little bit warm in the ruthless professional football field, so drifting players like Drogba are now unwilling to play any more. Leaving the Red Rebels, they do have reasons worthy of players and worthy of being followed by football fans around the world.

Tens of thousands of people in the audience came together to celebrate Evra's birthday. This is absolutely amazing and will definitely appear in major sports newspapers around the world tomorrow, but now it is the FA Cup final and the game will continue. The referee had to interrupt the short celebration ceremony that the Red Rebel players and the Red Rebel fans in the stands were unwilling to stop.

However, when the players from both sides returned to the center circle, the enthusiasm of the Red Rebel fans in the stands suddenly burst out. They cheered for a long time in the stands, and the momentum shook the entire stadium for a while.

…………

…………

The game restarted and the Red Rebels still controlled the situation on the court.

As Mourinho predicted before the game, in such a crucial final, whoever loses the ball first will be completely passive.

Manchester United was already at a disadvantage on the field, and now the Red Rebels scored the first goal. This suddenly put the Red Devils into a dilemma where they had to press out and fight.

However, if Manchester United presses out to play, there will inevitably be a crisis in the backcourt. The space in the backcourt will expand, giving the Red Rebels more opportunities to attack. For a team like the Red Rebels that has a strong ability to seize scoring opportunities, it often only takes one If given the opportunity, they can rewrite the score again.

In this case, what everyone expected, Ferguson's crazy adjustments at the last moment of the first half, did not appear. Manchester United still played in an orderly manner and still did not rush.

Since the opponent is not in a hurry, the Red Rebels, who have a ball in hand, naturally have no need to worry.

So, in the last 10 minutes of the first half, the game once again returned to the scene before the goal. It was beautiful and had many opportunities, but no one was able to score again.

During the halftime break, Mourinho was wary of Ferguson's moves. He signaled the players to properly retract their formation after the start of the second half. A 1:0 score was not safe or safe. Manchester United would not be willing to give up. The best way to kill is to take advantage of their mentality and seduce them to come out and fight.

However, Mourinho's ideal calculation did not work, and Ferguson did not make any substitutions during the halftime break. The team's tactics were still based on defense, supplemented by counterattacks, and there was no rush to get the score back.

Therefore, after several trials shortly after the start of the second half, the Red Rebels slowly took control of the situation on the field, and Manchester United returned to the old routine of defensive counterattack.

Ferguson doesn't have many cards at hand right now, the guest lamented.

It seems hard to believe this when you say it, but if you think about it carefully, it is true.

Taking offense as an example, Quaresma and Robinho are both the strongest wing attackers in today's football, but they were frozen by the Red Rebels on both wings. Although Robinho on the left Alves was contained, but the presence of Messi also made Manchester United's left wing uneasy. After conceding the ball in the first half, Taivo did not dare to step forward for a moment.

Quaresma on the right faced Fabio, who was hailed as the most likely breakthrough point before the game, but Mourinho was obviously prepared. Fabio changed his previous attitude of focusing on offense and neglecting defense. xìng, the defense in this game was perfect, and with the help of Michael Johnson, there were no major flaws in the left wing he guarded.

It was impossible to open up the situation on the wing, and it was difficult to be effective in the middle. With the cooperation of Michael Johnson and De Rossi, Diego could only keep pulling out and retreating to catch the ball, but was unable to use the breakthrough in the middle that he was good at.

As for Rooney, in front of Curtis and Terry, he performed poorly throughout the game and worked hard, but with little effect.

It is difficult for Sulimengtali and Fletcher to give the team much help on the offensive end, and they are also busy dealing with Kaká. In this kind of confrontation where it is either you or me, they can only choose Defense, but unable to take into account offense.

Even Ferguson knows that adjustments and substitutions are not very effective, because Mourinho is also waiting for Manchester United to make changes.

Moreover, there is another reason why Ferguson has not dared to make any changes, and that is that he is worried about the attack of the Red Rebels.

There are only 11 people on the field. Now for Manchester United, the situation on the field is just balanced. If they want to strengthen their offense, they must replace a defensive player. Then the Red Rebels' offense will take over. At that time No matter how strong Manchester United's offensive ability is, it's useless because it can't be used at all.

Before you score, the Red Rebels' magic quartet will sieve Adler's goal

There is no doubt that Manchester United played at its peak in this game. Ferguson tried every means to improve the condition and fighting spirit of the players. They also showed their strongest strength, while the Red Rebels were tired, and Ever La is absent.

Despite this, there is still a 1-goal gap between the two teams.

Ferguson was depressed, but had to admit the reality

Pellegrini is right, you are just unlucky, Jose. Ferguson looked at Mourinho not far away. The Portuguese had a calm look on his face, obviously already confident of winning the game.

He had already thrown this dilemma to Ferguson, and it depends on how the Manchester United coach chooses.

Many people say that Ferguson is not a conservative person, but in fact it depends on who the opponent is and how strong the opponent is.

When encountering an opponent like the Red Rebels, even if Ferguson didn't want to be conservative, he still had to be conservative, so he arranged a defensive counterattack. He was unable to make an adjustment decision.

The football field is full of coincidences and accidents. If Manchester United scores the first goal in this game, if the current score is still 0:0, then...

Ferguson was thinking with regret, but when he raised his head and looked at the big red scoreboard on the court, the number under the name of the Red Rebels was not a rectangular 0, but a vertical one, which was 1

Mourinho is always paying attention to the situation on the field, but at the same time he is also paying attention to his direct opponent, Ferguson

When he saw Ferguson struggling several times to make adjustments, but in the end he did not make a move, but turned around and walked back to the coaching bench, he suddenly wanted to shout loudly, because he knew very well that Ferguson had given up.

What time is it, Jim? Mourinho asked over his shoulder, unable to see the scoreboard clearly from where he stood.

It's 63 minutes. Cassel immediately walked out, holding an IPAD in his hand, which was specially designed by Apple for the Red Rebels. The coaching staff used it to analyze game data and respond to game problems in a timely manner.

Mourinho took it over, scanned several key data, and handed it back to Cassell, Very good, Jim, the game is over. Ferguson has given up and let Wilshere and Rodwell Go warm up with Walcott, we need to make substitution adjustments first.

After hearing this, Cassel immediately turned around with a smile and shouted three names to the bench. After hearing this, the three generals immediately went out to warm up happily.

After 5 minutes, the Red Rebels took the lead in making substitutions. Mourinho replaced Kaká, who performed well, with Wilshere. The Englishman is a versatile frontcourt player. Mourinho asked him to play as an attacking midfielder in this game. .

In the next 10 minutes, Mourinho continued to make substitutions, replacing Xixi Luo and De Rossi with Walcott and Rodwell respectively. It was obviously for the purpose of training the newcomers, and Ferguson also made two changes. Each substitution is to strengthen the defense of individual positions.

By this time, everyone knew that there was no suspense in the game.
