Volume 6 Chapter 42

The score was equalized and did not make England panic, which shows their current composure.

After the re-kick-off, they still played according to their own rhythm, which made the French team want to take advantage of the idea of ​​​​going to the goal, and it felt like a punch to the cotton.

But this time the French team also learned to be honest. Seeing that they could not easily win, they recovered the defense line according to the request of sideline coach Blanco.

Especially for Mark Qin's marking, Diarra and Malouda stopped in the middle to protect Cabaye's back, but in this way, the two sides had to rely on Ribery and Nasri's return defense .

This is the invisible restriction of offensive stars on defense, and many things cannot be seen in statistics.

Ma Keqin saw this change, so he frequently played on Nasri's side. Now on the French team, in terms of laziness, Nasri is definitely number one, and he doesn't like to defend.

"The scene is a bit stalemate now," Lineker said looking at the scene, "The French team's defense is obviously tighter than at the beginning of the game, and basically only one Benzema is left in the frontcourt."

"It's a pity that Carroll didn't seize the opportunity just now, otherwise it would be a different situation now," Wilson commented with a bit of regret.

"Young players still have to give them opportunities to make mistakes," Alan Shearer said a few words for this little brother, otherwise the criticism he received after the game is estimated to be one-sided.

Just as he was talking, Johnson's cross from the England winger was pushed out again by the French team's central defender, and it went directly to the midfield. Barry squeezed away Benzema to control the peripheral landing, and handed it to Lampard in front.

The French team pressed very quickly, obviously not giving England room to organize. At this time, Lampard's experience was shown. He did not hesitate to pass a big foot to the edge of the penalty area on the left.

Rooney got the ball on the wing with a reverse run, and the formation that France had just pushed out had to be retracted, and England formed a continuous attack.

"Rooney, try to break through on the wing," Lineker said, "Debussy's position is still stuck, Rooney, buckle back, there is no chance, and Ashley Cole behind him"

Seeing this, Mark Qin immediately ran to the left to respond. Ribery's defensive enthusiasm was still very good, and he returned early to guard against Ashley Cole.

Seeing that Rooney was in an offside position in front, Ashley Cole pulled the ball back, and then knocked the ball to Mark Qin, who was back in front of the penalty area and was ready to catch the ball.

Malouda remembered the lesson of Cabaye in the opening game, quickly came close to him, squeezed forward and leaned against him, preventing him from easily turning around with the ball, after all, this is in front of the penalty area.

He leaned back hard and opened up some space. Ma Keqin took the opportunity to stop the ball. At this time, the defense of the French team shrank very quickly. ball.

It's just that Ma Keqin, who has always been insightful, could give them such an opportunity?

Turning around, stepping over the ball with his right foot, dribbling inward, it was too late, and it was just a blink of an eye from Ashley Cole passing the ball to him catching the ball.

Malouda just tried to make a physical confrontation with the steal, but found that the ball was not in front of Mark Qin, huh? Where's the ball?

"Mark..., second pass..., Rooney broke into the penalty area!", Lineker suddenly shouted. From the live broadcast screen, it can be clearly seen that after Mark Qin stepped over the ball, he seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. A back heel, knocking the stagnant ball from between Malouda's legs to the baseline!

Straight through the combination belt of right back Debusch and right center back Mex, like a knife on the operating table!

Instant tear!

Rooney, who was walking back from the offside position, saw it, and immediately turned back and thrust diagonally, directly brushing past Debussy who was too late to turn around due to an accident, then caught the ball and broke through!

"Opportunity, MR made an exquisite pass-run cooperation on the left, Rooney, Rooney, shaking, shooting...", Lineker yelled frantically.

Mex didn't dare to step casually in the penalty area, so he could only try his best to block it, but he was still opened up by Rooney,

A low shot with his left foot went straight to the far corner.

The speed of the ball was extremely fast, and Loris, who was blocking the near corner, subconsciously lowered his waist and stretched his legs, but he barely touched the edge of the ball, but this rub changed the original direction of the ball, making the ball that was originally running towards the far corner become Fly towards the back point to be parallel to the goal.

"Oh, Luo..., Gerald, Gerald...", Heinkel yelled frantically before he felt sorry, and saw a figure galloping from the back, rushing in front of Everest. Before pulling, a crazy shovel shot not only shoveled the ball into the goal, but also threw his own into the goal!

Very hot!

"Boom...", the Three Lions fans at the Bath Arena were boiling again, "Goal..., roar...", they raised their hands high and shouted towards the stadium.

"Goaaaaaaaaaal..., GoalGoalGoal..., Gerrard, Gerrard, England are leading again, we are invincible...", Lineker finally yelled madly.

Wilson and Alan Shearer also jumped up excitedly, raised their arms and shouted, just like Capello on the sidelines, it couldn't be better to lead again before the end of the first half!

Gerrard, who got up, opened his arms excitedly and ran to the sidelines. He scored his second goal in the European Cup. He had been waiting for this goal for 8 years.

How could he not be excited!

"Ah...", he yelled while running, kept opening his arms and waving, showing his classic flying with arms in the World Series again.

Mark Qin and the others were equally excited to follow Gerrard. This is England now, and they have the ability to break the goal of any team!

"Gerrard, the captain of the Red Army, Steven Gerrard, shot violently and helped England lead again!" Zhan Jun also shouted excitedly, "This is completely a Gerrard-style supplementary shot, wild and explosive! "

"Strong goal, Mr. Ma's second pass, Rooney's shot, finally opened up the defense line of the French team again, Gerrard scored with a supplementary shot, good goal...", Huang Jianxiang also shouted.

Gerrard ran to the sidelines and threw himself on the turf passionately, accompanied by the white-faced and red-faced shouts from the stands, they are the champions, they are the world champions!

This is what England looks like now!

Blanco scratched his head. He didn't expect England to score again. The changes that Maxine brought to England can only be truly experienced on the spot. When he played, England will be able to play this kind of cooperation. ? , They used technology to suppress England at the beginning.

But now England can actually suppress their continuous offense in stages.

So much has changed!

Depressed Lloris picked up the ball from the goal again, like to reprimand Debusch who lost his position and Rooney just now, but he held back after thinking about it.

The internal strife has just subsided, so it's better not to be too intense, he thought to himself.

"England has finally seized the opportunity again," Zhang Lu analyzed, "How about this French team, world-class striker, decent midfielder, very average backline"

"Yes," Zhan Jun said, "except for Evra, no one else can play the main force in the giants. Evra is also old now. As long as England's offense can break through the midfielders Diarra and Malouda, they will basically be able to play. can create a threat”

"If we play this way, England's odds of winning are better..." Zhang Lu finally said.

After the celebration, England high-fived each other and walked back to their own half with excitement. The first half was about to end, which laid a good foundation for them.

But the French team didn't think so. Of course they didn't want to fall behind by a goal and entered the lounge. After Rizzoli blew the game whistle again, they quickly invested in the attack.

As a boss, Zidane's earliest successor, Ribery certainly can't let Nasri focus on the front, frequently dribbling the ball from the right to attack Ashley Cole.

Ribery has always been on both sides. In Bayern, he was not fixed on the left until Peter Pan passed. Now he is racing on the right, which really caused a lot of trouble for Ashley Cole.

"Franck Ribery, very fast, shake Cole away, cross...", the ball drew an arc and went straight to the back of the goal. For such a ball, England's double central defender is still very experienced. Ferdinand's card was early. The bit grabbed the landing point and cleared the ball out of the penalty area.

Just the next second, the England fans in the stands were shocked into a cold sweat.

"Cabaye..., oh...", he volleyed sideways against the ball in front of the penalty area, and the quality of the shot was quite high.

Joe Hart basically did not respond, but he was lucky, the ball flew out of the baseline against the post, and did not allow the French team to equalize again before halftime.

"Oh, it's so hanging. This time it's Lampard again. He came out slowly after recycling," Huang Jianxiang said, "Capello has to consider this point. The French team has so many people in the front waist area. Yes England's defensive midfielders have a high requirement for the presence rate, so it is too dangerous for the French team to shoot from outside the penalty area."

Capello also frowned. He didn't feel it in the qualifiers, why Lampard's state dropped so quickly in the main match, and he didn't run actively.

Known as the iron man, the "magic lamp" who has never been absent in the season finally did not survive the constraints of age and showed fatigue. They have won the Champions League, can they not be tired, especially in a position like Lampard, basically Running all over the field.

Capello began to face up to this problem in his heart. It was okay once, but it was the same the second time, which means that there is a real problem, not a mistake, and it is very likely that France will catch the weakness.

Fortunately, shortly after Joe Hart kicked his big kick, Rizzoli blew the halftime whistle.

"Okay, the first half is over. England took the lead in the first half as they wished. I hope they will continue to work hard and continue to give us wonderful games in the second half. We will see you later..." Zhan Jun made the halftime summary Said.

After the England players returned to the locker room, Capello's first words were to ask Lampard, "Frank, are you physically fit?"

Lampard was stunned for a moment. Few people would ask him such a question. His physical strength can be said to be the top existence in the English team.

But the feeling of many outsiders will be more obvious. Not only is his physical fitness rapidly declining now, but his athletic ability is also rapidly declining, especially when running around are animals in their 20s.

"Fortunately, I will pay attention to top defense in the second half." After thinking about it, he realized what Capello wanted to say. It was just because he was the veteran and he had just won the Champions League, so Capello had to give To save face, he asked tactfully.

He certainly doesn't want to give up the main position easily, and he wants to taste the championship again this summer as the main player.

Capello nodded and didn't bother with this issue any more. When managing the locker room, everything must be done to a certain degree. No matter how authoritarian he is, he can't cross the line.

"Okay." He slapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. "The performance in the first half was good. In the second half, we need to control the rhythm again. The French team will definitely find a way to strengthen the attack. We need to be patient in the midfield. Play around with them, then take your chances and kill the game for good"

"Mark," he continued, when Markkin looked up to hear, "You can close in the second half and pull out their midfielder, and Andy (Carroll), you too"

"Wayne (Rooney), Steven (Gerrard), you have to insert firmly on both ribs, aim at the gaps in their ribs, and wait for Mark's pass"

"I know", "Well, OK", the players mentioned answered one after another.

"It's our first game at the Euros, I know many of you may not be at your best, but this win is very important for us..."

The 15 minutes in midfield passed quickly. Capello briefly explained for a while, and the time passed.

The second half was indeed as Capello expected. The French team obviously strengthened the pressing of the midfield and the formation was even higher. Mark Qin retreated to organize according to Capello's request.

Then chances were created, but the script was completely different.

In the 56th minute of the game, more than 10 minutes later in the second half, Mark Qin, who was in possession of the ball in the backcourt, looked at the opportunity and made a through pass 40 meters away, which gave Rooney another chance to attack from the side.

England shot three arrows at once.

The white fans in the stands howled and cheered for Rooney as if they had been slapped with chicken blood. They saw the possibility of killing the game.

Rooney rushed to the edge of the penalty area and gave Carroll a horizontal knock. Gerrard was already empty. Carroll only needed to turn around and make a diagonal push. Gerrard was semi-single-handed.

He did indeed do this, but he was too tall and his movements were a bit slow. Behind him, Lamy shoveled in time, and shoveled back the ball that had passed him before it was far away from his feet.

"Carol, oops...", all the commentators let out a huge sigh, as well as the fans in the stands, this kid, he lost his chain at a critical moment!

But Diarra, who returned to defense, had no regrets when receiving the ball. Instead, he turned around and made a direct pass, finding Benzema who was retreating. The French team played a counterattack.

"Benzema, direct pass, Franck Ribery slanted...", when Franck Ribery directly inserted from the right to the left rib to take the ball, the stands exclaimed.

Then the script almost made Mark Qin have the urge to hit the wall. Ribery made a feint and immediately accelerated to break through to the bottom line. The defensive Ferdinand couldn't keep up, so he directly chose to tackle.

"Penalty kick, penalty kick, my God, England is..." Zhan Jun was speechless, and the situation changed in an instant, "Rizzoli awarded a penalty kick and gave Ferdinand a yellow card."

Capello spread his hands on the sidelines, as if to mean: Who can tell me what happened?

The referee's penalty did not change because of the communication of the England players. Ribery made it overnight and scored a penalty kick created by himself to equalize the score again.

"Capello made at least three mistakes in this game," Wilson said a little angrily, "with Ferdinand, with Lampard, with Carroll! Obviously, the state of these three people is not up to par. To the requirements of the game..."

The game is difficult to play, the morale of the French fans in the stands is high...
