Football’s First Defender

"Petrov's pass flew to the huge space left by Chelsea on the right after Bosingwa's assist!"

"Aston Villa's left-winger, Ashley Young is going full steam ahead in that direction!"

"Bosingwa, who reacted a little slower, was too deep because he participated in the offense before, and now he can only catch up behind Ashley Young!"

Yang Feng was running towards his right defense zone quickly!

Although the game just started, there was such a counterattack scene suitable for him, which gave Yang Feng a chance to perform! But at the first sight of this pass, Yang Feng felt that it was tricky!

The landing point of this ball is not within Yang Feng's control!

Although Yang Feng covers a large area and saves a certain amount of thinking time compared to ordinary people, he can run with all his strength. However, in such a large stadium, Yang Feng will still have to deal with it because of his own position, and the opponent's passing speed and accuracy. There are some areas that cannot be reached in time!

Even if Yang Feng sprints with all his strength, rushing slowly, but because Petrov pays more attention to the depth of the ball when passing the ball, he does not need to consider the width of the court, so the speed of this pass is very fast!

Although the opponent's winger couldn't reach the landing point and got the ball immediately, he couldn't reach the landing point in time either!

In Yang Feng's judgment, after the ball hits the ground, there is a high probability that it will continue to roll forward quickly, because the angle when the ball is passed is not large, so the trajectory of the ball after it bounces should still be within the court Yes, it will not roll off the sideline, only forward!

In this case, if I rush to the landing point now, I will compete in absolute speed with Professor Yang who is now young. Yang Feng feels that if he really does this, he should die peacefully!

So the choice left to me now is to retreat and stand still first, which is better than being forced by Professor Yang and then relying on speed directly on the side lane!

"For this ball, Yang Feng, who was in the rear, did not choose to run to the area where Petrov passed the ball, but ran directly and resolutely to the vicinity of his own penalty area. This decision..."

At this time, Hiddink on the sidelines was suddenly a little nervous!

"Damn it, is this counterattack pass so accurate? Will my defense go through a big test as soon as I come up?"

Because of his status as the coach of the Russian national team, Hiddink travels all over Russia all year round, watching Russian Super League games live and inspecting players!

So in watching Zenit's games for a long time, because Zenit's team style has always been open and closed after the defense provided by Yang Feng, regardless of the strength of the opponent, under Zenit's indomitable offense , will always seize the opportunity to fight back several times!

What impressed Hiddink the most about Yang Feng was that when Yang Feng ran to the landing point with all his strength, the ball must be won by Yang Feng in nine out of ten, and he successfully cleared the siege!

But when the opponent passes the ball that Yang Feng has no confidence to get or clear the siege, Yang Feng will also decisively give up the useless effort of running to the landing point, and instead directly occupy a more favorable position for the next defense, waiting for the opponent player to get the ball After the shock!

On this point, when Hiddink first arrived at Chelsea, Yang Feng had an in-depth conversation! Of course, Yang Feng also told the truth, after all, talent should be used if you have it, and it's not something shameful!

So for Yang Feng, when the opponent counterattacks, he doesn't care about the landing point, but runs to the position first, then for the team's defense line, it is really dangerous!

Hiddink did not expect that the opponent's first counterattack would pass the ball that Yang Feng could not catch, and Yang Feng would directly choose to take a position near the penalty area and passively wait for the opponent's ball to hit!

You must know that in the team training games these days, even if the level of confrontation is not strong, less than one-third of the passes left behind behind the two full-backs of the main team after they stepped forward to assist. Yi's pass can make Yang Feng give up fighting for the first spot, and go directly to the position, ready to defend!

"Ashley Young's speed is very fast. Although Ashley Young hadn't reached his position the first time the ball landed, but because there were no defensive players in place around him, Ashley Young directly relied on his speed and was the first to control it. football!"

"After taking the ball, Ashley Young didn't waste time, and directly dribbled the ball diagonally to the right to accelerate!"

"Yang Feng is standing at the corner of the restricted area right now, waiting for Ashley Yang's assault!"

Everything happened in a blink of an eye. A few seconds ago, Chelsea was still in the attacking stage. So when Aston Villa quickly counterattacked and took a dangerous position, Chelsea's defense was actually only Yang Feng and Terry. Defensive position!

And Terry has been following the forward Heskey who did not participate in the home team's half-court defense. Now there is only Yang Feng alone, and the confrontation is accelerated by Ashley Young!

At this moment, the other players, regardless of offense or defense, are still speeding up desperately, but as long as Ashley Yang does not get confused at this time and wastes time by himself, these people are destined to be just war reporters. It's just that you can see it more clearly, and it has no influence on the battle situation!

At this time, Yang Feng forced himself to face this defense with the calmest mind!

The big defends the small, and under the condition of sufficient space, the big players themselves are at an absolute disadvantage because of their physical flexibility and speed!

And Ashley Yang is not only faster, but also very cunning!

Yang Feng remembers this Professor Yang who will join Manchester United in the future, but he also has a nickname called "Diving Yang"!

Yang Feng remembered that when Zhan Jun commented on the Manchester United game, Zhan Jun directly called Ashley Yang "Diving Yang", which caused an uproar on the Internet! Countless Manchester United fans condemn Zhan Jun! Because of Zhan Jun's status as a diehard Red Army loyalist, it naturally evolved into a scolding battle between Liverpool fans and Manchester United fans on various online platforms! However, Yang Feng watched the live broadcast as a neutral fan at the time, and still remembered that Professor Yang did make a diving move during the game. Simply saying "diving Yang", at the time, there was no sense of disobedience!

As for Fairy, when facing Ashley Yang's breakthrough by herself, she must be extra careful! I am standing on the restricted area line at this time, if Professor Yang breaks into the restricted area and suddenly touches me, then there is really no reason for it!

"1v1 between Yang Feng and Ashley Yang!"

"Ashley Young! Pull the ball straight across, want to speed up the breakthrough from the right, and hit the goal directly?"

"Yang Feng moves his body sideways!"

"Changed direction! Ashley Young took advantage of his body's flexibility, and when he was halfway through the horizontal ball movement, he suddenly changed his ankle and dunked the ball back. It was a beautiful feint!"

"Breakthrough from the left!"

"But Yang Feng, also quickly completed the transition of movements! He even forcibly pulled his body back and caught up with Ashley Yang's breakthrough!"

As far as Yang Feng is concerned, although he has a certain talent, his physical weakness is also born. Even if he trains again the day after tomorrow, it will only be strengthened, and he cannot be as perverted as those talented players!

So if you want to improve your defensive strength, of course you have to rely on continuous efforts in other areas to strengthen yourself!

Ever since he was in Zenit, Yang Feng likes to study the videos of opponents in every game!

Since the data will not lie, the real video data will not lie!

Before a round of games, Yang Feng repeatedly watched the offensive highlight clips of opponent players who may participate in the offense, and asked the team video editor to edit all the offensive images of opponent players in 5 to 10 rounds!

Of course, it was the Scolari era before, because there was no head coach standing behind Yang Feng, and he didn't have much playing time, so the video editor might not give Yang Feng face!

But it's different now. Everyone in the team knows that Yang Feng is about to become Scolari's direct descendant! So even though his workload would increase, the team's video editor still agreed to Yang Feng's request!

All the crimes suffered by Zenit's video editors were transferred to Chelsea's colleagues!

A player, a player under the age of 30, will of course continue to grow, especially this kind of player who will go to a wealthy team in the future. If he does not grow to a certain level, how can he be in the eyes of a wealthy team!

Ashley Young will of course continue to grow in Aston Villa, but this kind of growth is slow and accumulated over time, so although too old videos are of little reference value, but the recent videos can see through the current situation. Ashley Young is still more than enough!

For example, Ashley Young's fake action of crossing to the right and suddenly smashing the ball to the left has always been a technique that Ashley Young likes to use very much in the game! Because Ashley Young is a right-footed player, when seeing him dribbling the ball to the right, most defenders will instinctively guard against him hitting the goal directly, but it also gives Ashley Young a change to pass from the left. Ball Chance!

And Ashley Young, in terms of his overall career, is more willing to be a passer than the end point of the team's offense!

So Yang Feng had long been on guard against Ashley Yang's fake move! Unexpectedly, Yang Feng was caught right after the opening!

Of course, in order to prevent Professor Yang from making fake plays during the game, seeing that Yang Feng went directly to the right to hit the goal without being cheated, Yang Feng also made fake moves to confuse him. The shoulders and feet did move to the left just now, but the moment the feet hit the ground, they reversed and moved quickly to the right, just enough to block Ashley Yang's breakthrough!

At this time, for Ashley Yang, his technical action has already been made, and of course he cannot change it easily!

Forcibly turning to the right again will only bump into Yang Feng, and there is a greater chance that the football under his feet will be broken due to physical confrontation!

Ashley Yang can only go to the black one way, and break through from the bottom left!
