Chapter 995 South America's cleverness and Liverpool's quickness (1)
Chen Yu is the core of Liverpool's forward line, but he is not a striker who has to feed the ball in the backcourt to score goals. He can also create opportunities for goals with the ball. The reason why he generally does not take the ball is that his opponents usually use strict control of him and even adopt killing tactics. In order to prevent Chen Yu from being injured and affecting Liverpool's championship plan, Benitez does not allow Chen Yu to dribble and break through too much, and only let him be the final finisher. Unless Liverpool really encounters a problem, Alonso, Gerrard and other midfielders cannot create opportunities for goals, and the two sides cannot provide support to the front line, Benitez will let Chen Yu retreat and get the ball and launch an attack directly.
Chen Badminton was not idle when he was in possession of the ball. His teammates were running. He was constantly reading the defense line of Boca Youth. Although the situation on the field was generally even, Boca Youth players did not dare to let Chen Yu take the ball like that. This was like someone wandering around at the door of his house with a gun. Maybe he shot himself at any time. How can he feel at ease if he didn't grab it? This player has always been concentrated on Chen Yu's side, and other Liverpool players immediately gained space.
Chen Yu found that when his opponent was mobilizing his troops, his teammate Finnan quietly assisted from the wing to the center circle, but the Boca Youth player did not notice his insertion at the first time.
With his left foot forward, twisted his waist, and swung his right leg, Chen Yu suddenly exerted force and kicked a long pass across the half.
The ball drew a brilliant arc and flew straight ahead of Liverpool right back Finnan.
When Finnan was running, he didn't expect Chen Yu to see him, but he kept paying attention to Chen Yu's movements. Seeing that Chen Yu actually discovered him and gave him a long pass. Finnan was so surprised that he quickly caught up, jumped up and stopped the ball with his instep, drove the ball forward, and quickly passed through the middle circle toward the Boca Youth's penalty area.
When Chen Yu passed by, the young Boca players also found Finan's insertion. Their full-back Ibarra quickly took the initiative to prevent his midfield teammate Banerga from being attacked by Finan and Pennant.
Ibara was very alert, but he was still one step late. Before he could catch up, Pennant, who had cooperated with Finnan, used a two-pass one and passed the young player Banerga.
Finan continued to carry the ball forward, just in time to meet Ibara.
At the beginning of the game, Ibara had a wonderful performance. As an opponent in the same position, Finnan certainly was not convinced, but he was a very mature and persistent player. When facing the flexible turn and the speed seemed to be slow, Ibara did not dare to directly pass the ball. He also passed the ball to Pennant and inserted himself behind Ibara.
Kuyt, who played as a winger, saw Finnan get in and ran quickly into the penalty area, giving up space for Finnan.
Finnan's intention is obvious. If Ibara follows him, Pennant will drive the ball forward and go to the inside. If Ibara does not follow him, Pennant will pass the ball to himself. In short, it is easy to play two-to-one, but one-to-one is impossible to play at all.
Banegas followed quickly, but Pennant and Finnan cooperated very well, and there was no pause in between. Banegas was desperately chasing and unable to help his teammate Ibara.
Ibara dared not let Pennant go, so he let Pennant go into the inside, and might have penetrated directly into the penalty area. It was too threatening to pass the ball to Kuyt. Finan went from the outside and made a cross from the bottom, which was a little less threatening. The two evils were the ones who were in control. Ibara chose to follow Pennant who was in control, cut off Pennant and Kuyt's passing route, and let Finanon go to the bottom.
Pennant knew that Ibara didn't dare to follow him. Seeing Ibara coming, he immediately sent Ibara straight behind him and fought with Finnan for a two-pass and one-on-one cooperation.
Finnan quickly went down the bottom, and Banega followed closely from behind but was still more than two meters away.
Finnan was able to catch up with the ball when he was about one meter away from the bottom line, but he did not touch the ball, but adjusted his pace slightly and only made a cross when the ball rolled to the bottom line.
Banegas did not give up and kept chasing to the bottom line to intercept it, but he started too late and arrived until Finan passed the ball with his foot. He did not interfere with Finan's pass.
Finnan's cross this time is very threatening. Liverpool saw Finnan penetrate into the bottom without defense, and the midfielder was very decisive. Except for Crouch, Chen Yu, Kuyt, and Gerald and Pennant in the back row, they also ran to the penalty area.
Liverpool's offense has formed two layers, with as many as five, which puts great pressure on the Boca youth's penalty area.
Although there are many people who are trying to grab the points, Finnan still aims at the ball that high center forward Crouch. After all, Crouch is so tall that it can be seen at a glance.
But Crouch was in the middle, and was the one who was the one who was most closely cared for by Boca youth. The ball was passed to him. The Boca youth was more strict. Crouch could not turn around under the clamping of two defensive players and did not jump up. No matter how tall he was, it was useless under the clamping of two people. The ball flew over Crouch's head.
There was no chance at the first point. Chen Yu was also very hard at the back point to compete for the landing point with the full-back. Fortunately, Chen Yu's reaction speed and strength were good, and he almost carried Gonzalez to grab the landing point. However, it was difficult for Chen Yu to exert force. He knew that even if he reached the goal range, the threat was average. No matter how weak Boca youth goalkeeper Caranta was, he would not let such a weak header enter the goal. Chen Yu simply did not push the goal, but headed the penalty area, allowing his teammates to conduct a second attack.
Chen Yu's response was excellent and selfless. Goalkeeper Karanta didn't expect Chen Yu to pass the ball. Not only did he fail to play a role when he got to the near corner, he also lost his position. Karanta quickly turned around and ran towards the middle.
The Liverpool's middle circumvented personnel had arrived at this moment. Gerald grabbed the ball that Chen Yu had returned from ferrying in the penalty area and headed the ball slightly, heading the ball to the left side of the goal.
Goalkeeper Caranta has not returned to the position at this moment, but there are two central defenders and forward Crouch in the middle, and the staff is still relatively crowded. Gerald was eager to find space, and the next point was a place that the goalkeeper could not dive to. This point can be said to be a blind spot in the absolute sense.
Gerald's shooting awareness is good. He has the talent for shooting. If Gerald shot with his feet, the ball would probably have entered. However, Gerald's header was a little worse than his footwork. The ball avoided all the defenders and flew out of the baseline against the post.
Watching the ball fly out against the post, Gerald slapped his thigh in disappointment and made an apology gesture to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu did not blame Gerald. He waved his hand and signaled that it was nothing. Even the striker could not score goals every time. He was so powerful that he didn't have to live his life as a goalkeeper.
Liverpool's offense is a typical Liverpool-like offense. It is simple and smooth in coordination, and has a strong sense of teamwork. In addition to the last flying overhead, it is deeply rooted in the original Liverpool's essence.
The fans in the stands were waiting to cheer. The word "good" was blocked in their throats and swallowed it back again. Each of them was disappointed in words.
The Japanese commentator on the scene said: "A wonderful offense, Liverpool players are very good at this offensive method, but they still couldn't make money at the end. However, as long as they continue to play like this, there will definitely be a chance in the future. Liverpool's offensive has begun and will definitely not defend anymore."
The Japanese commentator is still insightful. Liverpool's attack failed this time, and everyone later returned to their half to prepare for the next wave of attacks.
When the Boca youth served the ball this time, goalkeeper Karanta did not directly use his big foot to look for the forward, but patiently passed the ball to the defender, allowing the defender to pass it to the forward through short passes.
Karanta's pass this time cannot be said to be wrong. He kicked off with big feet and would probably be under Liverpool's control soon. It is better to penetrate forward slowly. Although the attack is slow, it is relatively stable.
However, after the attack just now, Liverpool's morale has increased and the players' enthusiasm has also increased. The players in the frontcourt pressed together, snatching the Boca youth players into a mess.
Boca finally passed the ball to the front line in the backcourt. This was Cardoso's horizontal transfer, which gave the forward Palacio who was retreating and responding.
Palacio showed the spirituality of South American players at this time. He almost kept setting the ball straight and rolled directly into the penalty area.
Another striker of the Boca youth, Palermo, had a heart-to-heart relationship with Palacio, Palacio stood in a straight line, and he followed this straight line and directly entered the penalty area.
"good!"
"Good transmission, good running!"
"The cooperation of South American players is indeed good, much more delicate than Liverpool!"
...
The commentators from all over the country in the commentary seat praised the Boca youth's attack.
The Boca youth's offense is very delicate and smooth, but Liverpool's defense is not bad. Although the two central defenders did not expect the Boca youth's forward to create such offensive sparks, their defensive skills are very solid and they are stuck in their positions, so that Palermo must bypass the defensive personnel when entering the penalty area.
In fact, there is no problem with every link in the delicate attack like Boca youth. If there is a mistake in one link, clever cooperation may become ridiculous cooperation.
Palermo bypassed Liverpool's defender and took a small arc. Although the time was not delayed much, Liverpool goalkeeper Renner saved the ball at the first time and threw it into his arms before Palermo kicked.
Palermo could no longer control his body's center of gravity, so he had to pounce forward and flip over goalkeeper Reina's body.
