Football’s First Defender

Chapter 641: A Tacit Draw

As a central defender, he scored a goal in his first appearance for the national team. For Yang Feng, this is definitely a very memorable game.

And the final result of this game against Qatar is also very satisfying.

After Yang Feng opened the scoring for the team, Qatar had to take the initiative to attack, but in front of Yang Feng's defense, Qatar's offense must be the same.

After all, they created offensive opportunities in the threat area, but they were all successfully closed by Yang Feng, or they stretched out their feet to block the route of the goal, and did not really threaten the goal of the Chinese team.

On the contrary, it was the martial arts king who formed a tacit connection with Yang Feng during the game.

In the 78th minute of the game, after completing the steal, Yang Feng made a long pass and directly found the huge space left behind after Qatar's full attack.

The martial arts king broke out with his fastest speed, one step ahead of the left-behind players in Qatar, controlled the whereabouts, and directly broke out with his own speed to force the opponent.

The breakthrough was successful. This time, the Wuqiu King did not miss the single-handed shot. He shot a low shot and extended the score to 2-0 for the Chinese team, which can be regarded as a complete seal of victory in the away game.

In the end, with the goals of Yang Feng and Wuqiwang, the Chinese team defeated Qatar, the most powerful opponent in the group, 2-0 away.

Yang Feng made his debut for the national team. While he performed extremely well on the defensive end, he also made great contributions to the team on the offensive end. It can be said that he is the absolute contributor to the victory of the game.

"It's too NB. This time I really realized the gap between world-level players and Asian players. Yang Feng transformed the entire Chinese defense line by himself, NB!"

"It's not just the defensive line after the transformation. The first goal of the national football team was scored by Yang Feng's header. He was dragged by two Qatari central defenders, and he was able to complete the header. No problem at all!"

"Fortunately, the Football Association has a bright mind and let Yang Feng return to China to compete. I feel that now that the national football team is holding Yang Feng's thigh, they have a chance to really hit the World Cup..."

All kinds of forums in the country have been flooded by Yang Feng's various performances at the end of the game or even during the game.

Everyone watched Yang Feng's games at the club before and felt that Yang Feng was really strong. He defended the entire Chelsea and Liverpool's defense alone.

But this time, when Yang Feng returned to the national team and the Asian football field, everyone found that Yang Feng was too strong.

The addition of one person will completely reshape China's defense line, so that Qatar, which has been strong this year, will not be able to pose too much threat to China's defense line at home.

Many fans even feel that with Yang Feng joining, facing Japan and South Korea who can only be regarded as second-rate forwards in the European arena, will the Chinese team also have the strength to fight?

The national football team won the away game, and the media reported overwhelmingly about Yang Feng, but Yang Feng himself flew back to the UK in a low-key manner after the game.

After the game, Yang Feng returned directly to the club to report, a few days earlier than other teammates. These few days, Yang Feng was resting, and then continued to practice his tactical play as a midfielder with Klopp.

I haven't experienced the "FIFA virus" before, but feeling it now, it is really tiring for Yang Feng.

It's not that the competition was so intense, but that the pains of jet lag, adjustment, and the plane journey all together seriously disrupted Yang Feng's physical routine.

Especially the plane journey, long-distance flight, sitting uncomfortable and doing nothing, there is no way to take a good rest, but it aggravates the fatigue.

Fortunately, because the national football team has a bye on this match day, Yang Feng can come back earlier, which can be regarded as a good recuperation, so as not to delay the subsequent league games.

The league after the match day of the national team is the most severely affected by the FIFA virus for the giants.

In this round of the league, Liverpool will challenge Tottenham, one of the six giants, away.

In this battle, the two sides were evenly matched. Both were tortured by the FIFA virus and did not recover to the team's best combat strength.

Especially for Liverpool, the two strikers that Klopp relies on most now, Firmino and Sturridge, are all exempted from the game due to injuries. This is a huge blow to Liverpool's striker.

After thinking about it, Klopp chose to play a stable 451 formation in the away game, instead of sticking to the attack-oriented 433 formation.

Klopp chose to let Origi play as a single forward. The team is away. This time it will mainly play defensive counterattack tactics, especially strengthening the defense in the midfield.

There is no change in the defense. In the midfield, since there is no need to play a more aggressive 4-3-3, in terms of staffing, Klopp focuses on strengthening the defensive ability of the players and the ability to push counterattacks.

Henderson, Milner, Emre Can will stabilize Liverpool's defense in the game, while Coutinho and Lallana will be in the midfield position, making more pressing interceptions and counterattacks. , Increase Liverpool's offensive threat.

The visiting team Liverpool put up a defensive counterattack lineup, and the home team Tottenham, after being harassed by the FIFA virus, also did not have a good state to fight against Liverpool.

The coaches of the two giants chose exactly the same tactics.

Pochettino's side is also a 451 lineup, which is exactly the same as Klopp's thinking.

In the case of the team's poor state, this kind of strong confrontation must give priority to the team's defense.

Tottenham's lineup is extremely capable in defensive counterattacks.

Single striker Harry Kane has exploded this season and has gradually grown into a world-class attacker, and his running position and goal shooting ability in defense are all world-class.

Behind him, Lamela and Ali are excellent wingmen who can provide Kane with offensive help.

In the defensive midfield trio, Elkeson also has a very good ability to play the ball, and can accurately schedule the direction of the team's counterattack.

Under the adjustment of Pochettino, several fierce players on the back line have also become sweet pastries in the transfer market and are coveted by the major league giants.

It's just that the starting lineups of the two teams looked star-studded, but after the game kicked off, everyone wanted to switch channels.

This game was really boring. The two teams didn't even strangle in the midfield. The heavy troops gathered in their own half, and the offense that advanced to the opponent's half would always be those in the middle and front. It wouldn't be too much. Too risky, giving the opponent room to fight back.

The defense of the two teams is impeccable, and even the chances of long-range shots are rarely given to the opponent.

The two sides had a good understanding in the game, each defended well, and neither of them made a change first.

In other words, the coaches of both sides are afraid that they will be aggressive and give their opponents a chance to play a defensive counterattack.

A draw, Klopp can accept it, and Pochettino can also accept it.

And the exhausted players who rushed back from all over the world can also accept a draw. In the game, the players are more willing to consume less energy.

With everyone satisfied with a draw, in the end Liverpool and Tottenham finished the round of the Premier League "tacitly".

The score was 0-0, and the scene was extremely ugly. Both sides showed their skills on the defensive end. The combined number of shots by the two teams did not exceed 15 kicks. A few kicks are not a threat to the goalkeeper.

However, although they did not lose, in the face of two relatively strong opponents, Liverpool under Klopp's command only achieved a draw, which still makes many people a little worried about the ability of this Liverpool team to fight tough battles.
