Step by Step to Win

Chapter 434: Nightmare

In psychology, a guy named Murphy once proposed a law. He said that if things have the possibility of going bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will always happen. This sentence is not recognized in many times, but for Wolfsburg, the match against St. Petersburg is like this, and even more than that.

For Wolfsburg, before the start of the game, they were most worried about nothing more than their inability to win in this game. However, the development of the game was worse than they thought. At least the result of the game will be decided after 90 minutes, but less than 10 minutes after the start of the game, Wolfsburg has already suffered a blow.

Of course, what happened to Wolf Castle has nothing to do with their strength. In this game, Wolfsburg still had the upper hand at the beginning. When the game started, as usual, Wolfsburg tried to launch a quick attack at the first time. Although Zenit St. Petersburg is strong and has a greater advantage at home, Wolfsburg has just defeated them just two weeks ago, and Wolfsburg is not very afraid of their strength. In this game, the decision made by Wolfsburg was to attack at the beginning of the game and basically not give St. Petersburg any chance to breathe.

They need a victory, and the weather in St. Petersburg is too cold, which makes Wolfsburg players worry that if the game is delayed for too long, the team will lose the ability to grasp the opportunity due to constant loss of physical strength. therefore. In this game, Wolfsburg took the lead in attacking, and they wanted to use their own offensive.

After the game started. Wolfsburg’s attack was launched very quickly. They did not adapt too much, and quickly organized their own offense. When Hulk from St. Petersburg dribbled the ball inside and wanted to make a quick inside shot, Wolfsburg's counterattack was officially launched.

In all fairness, although Gao Shunyao has always believed that strong players should not play on the wing. But Hulk's dribbling breakthrough is still quite a threat. His body is quite strong. It is difficult for a general full-back to have a defensive effect on him. With the same level of dribbling, players with thin builds are likely to have to swing two or three times. Only then can he break through successfully, but with his physical quality, for some defenders who are not strong enough, he can basically make a breakthrough with the ball hard squeezing. There are few full-backs who are extremely strong like central defenders, especially in modern football, because the number of full-backs required to participate in the attack has greatly increased, and some tall full-backs will suffer from insufficient offensive ability in the game. Can't eat, so in this position. He is indeed threatening.

The body is strong enough, coupled with not weak dribbling skills, so that he can play out and crush the average level when facing many underdogs. Whether in the Portuguese Super League or in the Russian Super League. He played very well.

But this time, what he encountered was not a Portuguese or Russian Super League team, but a Bundesliga team. When he cut in with the ball on the right side, Wolfsburg didn't leave him too many opportunities. Although he is really difficult to stop in one-on-one, but Wolfsburg players. From the beginning, there was no plan to play against him one-on-one.

When he broke through with the ball, Rodriguez, as the full-back of Wolfsburg, did not choose to block him in front. He knew that his physical condition was too far from Hulk. It is impossible for a person to intercept him. As a smart defender, Rodriguez did not intend to have to use his weaknesses to fight against his strengths. It would not be good to resist Hulk head-on. He also chose other methods.

In the face of the breakthrough, he chose to be close to Hulk, relying on his own personal entanglement, he forced Hulk to slow down. He followed Hulk closely without leaving a step, and Kayar posted at the middle of the road. The two of them then cooperated to intercept Hulk's side.

Hulk is indeed very strong, but as a tall defensive player, Kjard is not inferior to Hulk in terms of size and physical fitness. He intercepted from the front, and it was not so easy for Hulk to eat **** his body. This is especially true when someone is around to guard. Faced with this kind of defense, even top technical players will find it difficult to break through. Although Hulk is technically good, his physical fitness is also determined. It is difficult for him to lead like a 1.7-meter player. With the ball in front of the guards, he can easily change direction. For this kind of interception, he doesn't have much to do.

The biggest problem with this style of play is that it works well for underdogs, but when facing strong opponents, better tactics sometimes greatly reduce his power. In lesser leagues, no one will do this kind of targeted tactics, but in better leagues, or at the national team level, it's different.

Therefore, similar to the previous game, the football was shortened by Wolfsburg as soon as St. Petersburg’s offense was launched. Of course, Kjaer would not give Hulk a good shot, and he had already broken the ball when he was still on the wing.

Kayar, who broke the ball, immediately shifted and kicked the ball to Shaheen in front. Because his position is a bit forward, this foot is also quite convenient to pass. The offense and defense of the two sides changed in an instant, and Wolf Castle had organized an attack in a very short time.

After receiving the ball, Shaheen passed the ball to the side. Perisic, who was on the left wing, received his pass the first time. However, although the counterattack started, this time the attack did not start immediately. Perisic, who received the ball, did not choose to dribble the ball in, but after taking the ball, after a pause on the spot, he made a long pass. The ball, kicked the ball to the right.

Perisic’s approach is quite clever: Rodriguez was just in charge of defending him because of Hulk’s raging. At the beginning of Wolfsburg's counterattack, Rodriguez was not able to intervene in the first time to assist the attack. After getting the ball, Perisic is just facing the opponent's back line alone, and his chances are not many.

Although the Wolfsburg players are not afraid of St. Petersburg, they have to admit that Zenit's defense at home is still very good. They play on their own court, which has a great bonus in itself, and their players are also quite strong: Although their midfielder Witsel is indeed worth a premium, his strength is also It has been verified that, at least on the court, Perisic has no idea to try his defensive quality.

So when Perisic got the ball, he didn't have a good chance. He knew that if he forced a breakthrough, he might not have more chances than his opponent. It is very difficult to play in an away environment without the support of a teammate, and it is better to give the opportunity to a more confident teammate than to do it by yourself.

And precisely because of this, after getting the ball. He slowed down a little bit: after seeing the opponent players rushing towards him and the entire defensive line missed, he kicked the ball towards Turan with a long pass.

The long-distance transfer is not the best way to play Wolfsburg. Compared to long passes, they prefer to let one person dribble the ball, through a small area, with the help of teammates to seek a breakthrough. But this time, Wolfsburg did a pretty good job. After all, their players are already good, and St. Petersburg's defense is not particularly tight, which also makes Perisic pass and play very well.

The football easily landed at Turan’s feet, facing the ball passing from the other side of the field, he unloaded the ball with a relaxed kick, and facing the defending player behind him, he immediately turned around and then relaxed. With a kick, he passed the defending player and then rushed into the backcourt.

St. Petersburg's defense, in front of his skills, suddenly fell apart.

Perisic contributed a lot to this opportunity. His timing was very good. On this side of the court, Turan faced very poor defense and basically did not encounter any interceptions. Less than 10 minutes after the opening, Wolfsburg had already had an excellent opportunity. Gao Shunyao ran with his back to Turan, seeking opportunities, while Olic ran against Turan, seeking cooperation. The help of the two of them also made Turan absolutely capable of turning this ball into an opportunity~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This was originally the best opportunity, but the nightmare of Wolfsburg also began at this time.

After finally getting rid of the defense, Turan slowed down with the ball. He wanted to see how to pass the ball. And just as he relaxes his vigilance and slows down, behind him, the defensive players have already rushed over.

Maybe Wolfsburg’s offense was too smooth, maybe Turan’s freehand brushwork made the opponent face a big loss, and the opponent's mentality was obviously out of balance at this time. After being passed by Turan, watching Wolfsburg form an opportunity at the front of the penalty area, St. Petersburg defenders rushed up behind him, trying to grab the ball again. He got close to Turan from behind, but Turan also protected the ball well. Seeing that he couldn't grab the ball, he kicked Turan's ankle.

With the harsh whistle sounded, Turan fell to the ground. And looking at Turan who was lying on the ground, holding his legs in pain, Gao Shunyao's mind seemed to stop suddenly.

The opponent chose a rough foul in the game, which is really unexpected. Compared to losing, this time is really terrible. Seeing the team doctor entering the field, Gao Shunyao also had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that one of his teammates just recovered from his injury, and the other one is about to lie down on the hospital bed? (To be continued)
