Chapter 76 High Pass

A high pass made everyone at the scene look at the ball involuntarily, and then there was a long breath.

Yes!

In the past 25 minutes, under the pressure of the fast pace, even the fans couldn't help holding their breath. This was the situation created by the atmosphere.

The fans were like this, and the players were even more so.

Under long-term pressure, such a high pass was like the sun after a rainstorm, warming the heart.

Lippi's eyes also moved with the ball, and then he slowly exhaled.

"In football matches, for the defending side, they prefer a slow pace. Slowing down the pace can avoid the opponent's violent attack. Just like before, we need to keep jumping and squeeze our physical strength when facing England's crosses!"

"In fact, in this process, the English players are also in pain, but their morale is higher. After there is no defensive burden, their tolerance rate is also higher, so they are more relaxed."

"However, under such a long period of fast-paced torture, the physical strength of both sides has been greatly depleted."

"England will not take the initiative To slow down the tempo, and we need to do so!"

"Kai's pass cut off the previous tempo. His choice is a slow tempo, and England will play like this. After all, they are in the lead, and they also need to rest under excessive pressure!"

"But no matter what, this situation is more favorable to us!"

"As a midfielder, you must not only pass the ball well and control the ball well, but also have a clear understanding of the current situation, just like Kai's choice."

Lippi said slowly; "Finally there is a chance to breathe!"

With a high pass, the rhythm of the game was like being cut off by a knife.

The Chinese team began to conduct the pass, and England also tacitly did not press too hard.

After 25 minutes of fierce offensive and defensive battles, both sides tacitly began to stop.

England wanted to rest, and so did the Chinese team.

Although it is not known how long the rest time can last, at least this is an extremely valuable process.

"Damn! I almost died in one breath!"

Seeing that the rhythm finally slowed down, Liu Kairui gasped and leaned over to rub his thighs.

After constant rubbing, the thighs that were a little numb and sore finally recovered a little.

Although they still felt a little sore after each run.

But at least it was much better than before.

The situation of others was similar.

After the pace slowed down, they needed to rest for a while.

Football matches are a combination of fast and slow events.

He doesn't need to run as hard as a 100-meter sprint.

Nor does he need to record the pace and time like a long-distance run.

This is a combination of fast and slow events, where exercise and rest coexist.

How to rest during the game, how to sprint at critical moments, this is what a football game should be like.

The ball was passed back to Lekai's feet.

The opponent still didn't force it, and Lekai also controlled the ball under his feet and didn't pass it immediately.

He first took two steps to the left, and when the English players leaned to the left, he transferred again in the air not far away.

Lekai didn't know how long England would give them to rest.

In other words, how long does England need to rest, but they must race against time to recover their physical strength.

After all, England may once again carry out that kind of fierce bombardment.

At this time, the stands have also restored a certain degree of leisure.

People have broken away from the tense rhythm and started chatting.

"This is the first time I have seen Kai take the initiative to slow down the pace."

Meadows said with emotion.

When he was in Arsenal before, Lucky was always the one who raised the pace.

He is very good at using this rhythm difference to catch someone off guard.

But at this time, facing this situation, Lucky took the initiative to slow down the pace.

This also shows that Lucky can not only speed up the team, but also slow down the team.

"But to be honest, I still feel uneasy!" Billy said solemnly: "We are only one goal ahead, and Kai has the ability to equalize the score."

Hearing this, the Arsenal fans on the side also looked serious.

Just as Billy said, Lucky can always score key goals in Arsenal.

For this reason, this feeling and expectation have become the instinct of Arsenal fans.

But before, he was expecting to equalize.

Now, he is trying his best to prevent this from happening.

At the same time, in the field, Lekai was also looking for opportunities.

But to be honest, he wanted to equalize the score, but on the one hand, he was too far away from the goal, and on the other hand, even if he ran to the goal, he couldn't make a quality shot.

It can be said that England's previous crazy attack squeezed the physical fitness of all Chinese players, including Lekai.

Although Lekai's physical fitness seems to be a lot, after experiencing last season's games, and even starting the World Cup directly after the Champions League, the wear and tear of a season cannot be effectively restored.

It's good not to be injured, not to mention the adjustment of physical fitness and state.

As Lekai said before, his job in this game is defense.

And the offense needs teammates to complete.

Lekai passed the ball to Ouyang Fei and retreated at the same time.

After seeing Lekai's movements, Ouyang Fei knew that he needed to cooperate with his teammates to advance the ball.

England's pressing pressure in the frontcourt was not great, but once they entered the opponent's half, they would fly out very fiercely.

This was still very stressful for Ouyang Fei.

But pressure does not mean not doing it!

Ouyang Fei gritted his teeth and rushed directly into the opponent's half, facing Ali and Wilshere's outflanking and pressing.

Ouyang Fei passed the ball to Quinney at the last moment.

Quinney touched the ball and sent it to the middle.

Chen Xiang retreated, staring at Maguire and passed the ball back to Ouyang Fei.

At this time, Ouyang Fei had passed Wilshere and Ali, and there was only Henderson beside him.

Under the interference of the opponent, Ouyang Fei rubbed the ball with his toes.

The ball passed over Kyle Walker's head and fell behind him.

At the same time, Chen Man started and ran at full speed.

But Kyle Walker also turned and ran.

The two had the same speed, and Kyle Walker was slightly behind, so he blocked Chen Man's sprint direction at the first time.

Arriving at the landing point of the ball first and passing the ball to the middle, Maguire did not delay and sent it directly forward, and the crisis was resolved.

Seeing this attack, He Wei said helplessly;

"That's it. England did a good job in our point-to-point defense. Chen Man, who has always been invincible, is on par with Kyle Walker in speed. He can't pose a threat on the wing, and can't play a threatening attack in the middle and on the left wing. It can be said that the Chinese team's counterattack was completely blocked by England!"

At this time, the ball came to England's feet.

Le Kai immediately shouted; "Retreat! They are going to counterattack!"

The Chinese players immediately ran back.

But unexpectedly, the English players did not rush forward, but started to pass the ball in the backcourt.

They didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack.

But soon, the Chinese players figured it out.

What are they anxious about?

They are leading, and they are under offensive pressure.

They need to find a chance to equalize the score, and even if England ends with the current score, they can successfully enter the semi-finals.

It can be said that England can drag the game to the end, which will not only make it easy to win the game, but also prepare for the semi-finals.

England has a good plan!

But for the Chinese team, this is not all bad news.

At least their defensive pressure is not as great as before

But how to attack?

How to counterattack?

This has become the core issue for the Chinese players.

England starts to waste time, so it will be difficult for the Chinese team to counterattack.

If the opponent does not attack, what can they use to counterattack.

As for the gentle penetration, they do not think they can penetrate England's midfield and defense line.

So, in the overall situation, the Chinese team is already in an absolutely passive and powerless state.

Lekai's brows are also tightly knitted together.

Go up and press?

That will give England a chance to counterattack.

Unlike the Chinese team, England's counterattack can really kill them.

As for not grabbing, it is no different from playing badly

They once again encountered a different problem.
