Chapter 228 Defending Does Not Mean Giving up the Attack (88/177) Chapter 6

Chapter two hundred and twenty-eight defending does not mean giving up the attack

"Friends from the audience! Welcome to the second leg of the 2009-2010 Europa League quarter-finals! Luton will play Ajax at home!!!"

Letkinson also appeared in the commentary of the stands, and this game was actually not the focus of this round.

Because at the same time, Everton played against Juventus at home, which was the focus of this round of the Europa League, and Everton drew Juventus 1-1 away from home, but the score remained There is a lot of suspense. Compared with this game that seems to have little suspense, the Everton game seems to be more worthy of attention!

But Letkinson still applied to comment on the game, because in his opinion, what even if Everton eliminated Juventus? Everton is also a strong team at the Premier League level, and they have nothing to say about reaching the round of 16.

Just normal operation!

And Gao Bo led the third-level team Luton to the top 16. This operation is the real coquettishness!

Letkinson wants to see how far Luton can go in the Europa League this season!

"Judging from the starting list, Coach Gao Bo has an unprecedented five-back formation! This is determined to play a defensive counterattack at home!!" Letkinson said.

"Actually, it's just defending! The three-to-one away game gives them the right to do this, but does Gao Bo really not think about attacking at all?" said Redknapp on the side.

Players from both sides have already appeared on the court, a series of ceremonies before the game ended, and the game started soon.

As one might expect, Luton was back at the start of the game.

Ajax, who was pressing heavily, was facing a tortoise formation. In the face of such a lineup, Ajax could not even speak for a while.

Whether in the middle or on the wing, Ajax players are faced with a dense crowd.

"Luton's Tietong formation is well placed. Ajax is indeed very difficult to play against such a line of defense," Letkinson said.

The rhythm of the game became very slow at this time.

Ajax can pass the ball in midfield, but when they try to move forward, they encounter strong resistance from Luton!

The iron barrel formation is not simply a matter of piling up people in the penalty area. In fact, on the defensive end, players must constantly adjust their positions according to the position of the ball and the opponent's players. Positioning, movement, and physical energy consumption are greater than that of offensive players.

Therefore, Gao Bo still used his physical fitness card in this game. Any tactics need physical strength to support him. Gao Bo is more and more able to realize this.

Ajax's attack encountered strong resistance, and Schmeichel was not under much pressure under the protection of the back line.

And the first shot of the game was actually from Luton who was in a deadly posture!

In the sixth minute of the game, Kante hit the back of the Ajax defense after stealing the ball in midfield, and then Vardy's speed came into play.

He shot a long shot from outside the box before the centre-back tackled! Forced a save from Ajax keeper Stekelenburg,

Let Ajax fans break out in a cold sweat!

"Ajax should be careful, if they think Luton has no attacking power at all, look at this shot of Vardy!!" Letkinson also almost stood up, and Vardy's shot was quite good. , Stekelenburg's save was also very thrilling. If he took a step slower, I'm afraid Ajax would be completely cold.

"Griezmann stole a lot of Vardy's limelight this season, but if you just look at Vardy's performance, he's even better than last season in Serie B! In the league , He is currently the league's golden boot! Vardy scored 27 goals in 30 rounds of the league, while his teammate Griezmann ranked second in the scorer list with 21 goals. Vardy still maintains his super high scoring rate. With his outstanding performance in the Europa League this season, Vardy, who only played in the third tier, caught the attention of Capello, and he was selected for England's first team. That means he could even be in England's squad for the 2010 World Cup!"

"Why not? Look at his performance against the big teams in the Europa League. As long as he stays in the form he is now, I even think he will be Rooney's best partner!" Redknapp said.

England is indeed short of strikers now, otherwise old players such as Defoe and Crouch will not get any chance at all.

Vardy is undoubtedly a good striker option, young, quick and efficient.

The only problem before was that Vardy played in the third tier, but now that's not a problem - look at Vardy's performance in the Europa League!

This is the Europa League, and any team above is at least a Premier League team!

Martin York, who was on the sidelines, was also taken aback and was relieved to know that he saw the goalkeeper save the ball.

But immediately followed by Luton's corner kick, and when Martin York saw Luton's three centre-backs all come to the penalty area, he felt something was wrong.

Gao Bo was also on the sidelines.

Set the ball! !

This is also the key practice of the team during this period of time. . . .

Gao Bo does not intend to attack the opponent, but this does not mean that he has given up the attack!

In addition to the counter-attack, the opportunity from the set-piece should also be taken advantage of.

Griezmann is not there, captain Kevin Keane is in charge of taking the penalty!

Kevin - Keane sent the ball directly to the middle!

Saul Campbell, George Parker, Jeffrey!

The three central defenders have a common feature, that is, their header ability is good.

In fact, it's not that Gao Bo prefers a central defender with a good header, but in an environment like the League One, if you plan to play with Mascherano as a central defender... This picture is also quite beautiful to think about. .

It's the league environment that dictates the style of centre-backs, and in this way, when three big centre-backs are in Ajax's box, Ajax's players also have to focus on on them.

But no one in the middle hit the ball!

point later! !

Vardy spared a circle in the penalty area, and then plugged in from the back!

When he jumped high, the players who followed the defense were still in the process of catching up!

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!”

Letkinson jumped up from the commentary.

At this time, Vardy's header from close range left the goalkeeper helpless! ! !

When the football hit the net, Vardy had opened his arms and ran towards the corner flag.

The fans were cheering and the players were chasing and celebrating.

Gao Bo pulled his hand out of his trouser pocket.

Defending.... doesn't mean giving up attacking! ...
