Football’s First Defender

After defeating West Bromwich Albion, Liverpool continued to advance in the league.

Facing the Queens Park Rangers who were struggling in the relegation zone at the beginning of the season, Liverpool showed a very tough style of play.

In the away game, they fought against QPR who dared to attack, and finally won the away game 4-1 easily, achieving the first two-game winning streak this season.

After the league, in the third round of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool will sit at home to face the visiting Champions League defending champion Real Madrid.

Like Liverpool last season, Real Madrid won the most wanted championship trophy and won the coveted tenth Champions League trophy.

This season, Real Madrid's team goal is very simple, strive to become the first team to defend the Champions League after the restructuring, and also want to launch an impact on multiple fronts.

Before this game, Real Madrid had won 7 consecutive victories in all competitions, and scored more than 5 goals in 5 of them, and even slaughtered Super Depor 8-2 in the away game.

Real Madrid's strong offensive firepower makes Liverpool dare not be careless even if they are at home. They are ready and ready to fight.

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo was Manchester United's ace player back then. However, although Ronaldo broke through Liverpool's gate, he did not score at Anfield.

In this game, as a guest at Anfield Stadium, Ronaldo will come to smash the field. Before the game, he made a bold statement, hoping that he can score his first goal in this legendary stadium at Anfield Stadium and lead the current The rising Real Madrid can break through Anfield, which can be regarded as helping their old club Manchester United, and their mentor Ferguson, a lesson to the recent "rampant" Liverpool.

Liverpool's 451 lineup, against Ancelotti's iconic 442 lineup, from the very beginning of the game, Liverpool suffered from the attacking suppression of Real Madrid, which is mainly anti-customer.

Liverpool's defense, at the beginning of the game, was shaky due to the lack of enough dedicated defensive players in the midfield.

There is also no dedicated defensive midfielder, but the diamond-shaped position of Real Madrid's 4-technical midfielder, after a long period of running-in, can actually provide enough for the defense as long as they are willing to run physically. Defensive help.

In this regard, Liverpool did not do as well as a veteran team like Real Madrid.

Player ability is one aspect. After all, Real Madrid's players are worth a lot. Real Madrid don't need any little monsters that need to be cultivated.

On the Liverpool side, the speed at which new players can integrate into the team is also a big problem, making the team not as full of integrity as last season on both ends of the offense and defense.

This may also be affected by injury factors, but in this game, the team still lacks enough integrity and competitiveness like most games so far this season.

The team's defense relies more on Yang Feng's hard work on the back line, and on the offensive end, it has returned to the old way of only relying on the accumulation of offensive numbers. Now Rogers can only hope that the players can play as they please. As the season progresses, quickly complete team integration.

In this game against Real Madrid, although Liverpool was full of confidence before the game, they are confident that they can beat any opponent at Anfield.

But on the field, as soon as Liverpool came on the field, Real Madrid showed their strength as a galaxy battleship and was beaten.

Being able to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League for 5 consecutive years and finally win the cup last season, Real Madrid is by no means in vain.

When the team attaches great importance to a game, it can put enough pressure on the opponent during the game.

Moreover, this Real Madrid team not only has the ball possession offensive tactics trained by Ancelotti, but also has a lot of legacy from the Mourinho era.

Not only can you control the ball by yourself to launch an attack, but you can also fight the opponent's counterattack with peace of mind. No matter which tactical choice Real Madrid chooses, it is world-class.

Today, at Anfield, at least at the beginning, Real Madrid looked like they were going to fight Liverpool.

Real Madrid, who took the initiative to attack, didn't care at all that this is Anfield, they just wanted to drop ten games.

Especially the impact of Marcelo on the wing fully demonstrated what is called the best left back in the world.

With excellent explosive power, whether he hits the bottom or cuts inside, Marcelo alone can turn Liverpool's entire right-sided defense upside down. Not to mention, Marcelo's support is either a world-class midfielder or a historic player like Cristiano Ronaldo. shooter.

Time flies. When Yang Feng came to the Premier League, the Ronaldo he faced was just a winger. Although he also had good scoring statistics, he was not a player who directly faced Yang Feng.

Today, Ronaldo has grown into a scoring machine for Real Madrid. Although he is positioned as a left winger, in fact, he is Real Madrid's leading shooter. Center forward Benzema only needs to open up space for his offense. .

Yang Feng confronts Ronaldo!

This is the biggest highlight of the Champions League game.

In their respective positions, the two who have reached the top, the direct dialogue between the spear and the shield, we can see whether Yang Feng's defense is better, or Ronaldo's offense is more incomprehensible.

Real Madrid's active attack made the direct dialogue between the two come quite quickly.

Only 5 minutes into the game, Ronaldo retreated to the middle to respond. Modric, who was in possession of the ball, was chased by Coutinho, turned around very easily and got rid of it, and then gave the ball to Ronaldo.

Ronaldo first passed the ball back to Kroos on the other side, and at the same time, Arveiroa and Marcelo advanced from the side at the same time, so that Liverpool's defensive players had to withdraw the two to the side. , to prevent Kroos' pass.

When the containment force was achieved, Kroos short-passed the ball to Ronaldo again, and Ronaldo directly dribbled the ball laterally, making Gerrard and Henderson feel like they were facing a formidable enemy, but they did not dare to directly grab it.

After Ronaldo moved a few steps horizontally, after attracting all the attention of the Liverpool midfielder, he passed a cross to Isco on the right.

After Isco received the ball, before the Liverpool defense arrived, he had already kicked the ball and passed the ball directly into the Liverpool penalty area.

After Ronaldo passed the ball, he took advantage of the physical confrontation he had trained, squeezed directly from the defense zone of Henderson and Gerrard, and entered the penalty area.

Just received this pass from Isco.

After that, for a shooter like Ronaldo, he only needs to take a volley after unloading the ball, control the angle of the goal, and the goal may follow.

However, just after Ronaldo stopped the ball, while swinging his legs slightly, Yang Feng quickly defended from Ronaldo's left side.

After Ronaldo left the penalty area, Yang Feng would naturally not follow him. He had to control the defensive area in the penalty area.

This time, although C's sudden advance after the pass was swift, and Isco's pass was indeed swift, Yang Feng's reaction was also not slow.

After Ronaldo passed the ball and made a forward move, Yang Feng had already rushed to this side.

Although Ronaldo's explosive power is stronger and he reaches the landing point faster, but Yang Feng's speed is not slow.

When Ronaldo was making adjustments to the goal, Yang Feng finally reached his position with the slider.

Afraid of being fouled by Ronaldo, Yang Feng didn't shovel directly at the ball to be on the safe side, but just slid the shovel onto the path of Ronaldo's goal, blocking Ronaldo's powerful kick with his body.

In the first round of the confrontation between the two, Yang Feng used a crucial sliding tackle to block Ronaldo's shot and defuse Ronaldo's offensive this time.
