Football’s First Defender

Mahrez has become a Leicester City hero!

Just before Mahrez scored, although the Leicester City players on the field did not know, the Leicester City coaching staff off the field and the audience watching the game got a feeling for Leicester City. Very bad news for Chester City.

That is, in another away game against West Bromwich Albion, Liverpool once again expanded the score in the 75th minute of the game.

After Liverpool took the lead, on the one hand, they are actively continuing to develop their own offensive mode, strengthening the success rate of the team's coordination in the midfield, and on the other hand, they are starting to give priority to defense. After the counterattack, continue to play better defensive counterattack efficiency.

West Bromwich Albion wanted to equalize the score, while Liverpool planned to complete the second goal as soon as possible to expand the score advantage and directly seal the victory.

West Bromwich Albion's offense is actually extremely limited.

Under Yang Feng's defense, it was difficult to create offensive opportunities in the penalty area.

Liverpool's counterattack was extremely threatening.

Benteke can act as a fulcrum in the frontcourt, enriching Liverpool's routines for countering long passes in the backcourt.

Liverpool's long pass in the midfield can not only directly hit West Bromwich Albion's empty space, but also find Benteke, the team's "lighthouse" in the frontcourt, to play the role of Benteke's fulcrum.

However, Liverpool's excellent defensive ability and continuous counterattack threat finally took the lead of West Bromwich Albion, and once again completed an excellent offensive development.

This time, it was still Yang Feng's key defensive position, passing West Bromwich Albion's side pass, and the damage was completed immediately.

The ball was directly destroyed by Yang Feng and went out of the penalty area.

It was Henderson who responded to Yang Feng's clearance from outside the penalty area.

Henderson didn't choose a big foot to clear the ball.

Instead, when the West Bromwich Albion players did not directly complete the frontcourt press, they had a very good offensive attempt.

Henderson controlled the ball in front of his own penalty area. Taking advantage of the fact that the home team's players' defense was not so good, he patiently controlled the ball, adjusted himself, and found the last chance to pass the ball.

Benteke's offensive position, even in the backcourt, Henderson can clearly see Benteke's position advantage on the offensive end.

After enough adjustments and preparations for the long pass, Henderson controlled the long pass very well, which also made this pass, for Benteke, only need to control his own offensive position, Then the football can be easily removed.

Benteke played a pivotal role very well.

Due to the attack just now, West Bromwich Albion did not have enough defensive players in the backcourt. In the case of 1v1, they are at an absolute disadvantage against Benteke.

And Henderson's long pass in the backcourt, in terms of power control and control of the pass's landing point, was done extremely well in the game.

Coupled with Benteke's personal ability.

As a result, Benteke didn't head the ball to catch the ball in the front court this time, but it was quite easy. Without too much pressure, he directly completed the chest stop and firmly controlled the ball to himself feet.

Leaning with your back against your opponent, unloading the ball from your chest, controls the ball at your feet.

The subsequent counterattack threat is very simple.

In the game, Benteke can complete the tasks of catching and stopping the ball, and then in the counterattack, the task of fast attack does not need Benteke to complete.

After Benteke finished stopping the ball, as Liverpool's fulcrum player at the forefront, he was also the last to press the West Bromwich Albion defense players, which also made Benteke's left and right sides absolutely empty.

After that, Benteke only needs to be optimistic about the speed of his teammates sprinting over, and just send the ball diagonally for a short distance.

The short-distance through ball that goes to the ground is the best fast-break option for counter-attackers.

Offensive players, without slowing down, can pass through the process of sprinting forward with all their strength, complete the response to the ball, and start attacking immediately afterwards.

Especially when the target point of the short-distance pass is already within the penalty area, it is the best situation for the counter-attacking players.

After the long pass connection between the backcourt players and Benteke, the Liverpool team has a great counterattack at this time, allowing Benteke to complete the pass and pass it to others. , to create the best attacking space.

On the counterattack end, Coutinho is the biggest threat.

Although Coutinho's physical fitness is not that good, it is definitely not bad.

And when facing the defense of West Bromwich Albion players, there is a certain amount of space to complete your own personal forward.

Coutinho, in this counterattack, took advantage of the situation where the defensive player was unclear, suddenly burst out with his absolute speed, used his flexibility, and his ability to change direction, got rid of the defender's mark, and directly went all out. Accelerate forward.

And Benteke's pass also found Coutinho, who looked forward and had a better position.

A through ball was passed to the front left, and Benteke completed the pass, that is to say, he completed his offensive task.

On the other hand, Coutinho continued to accelerate forward. After determining the route of Benteke's delivery, he just adjusted his position slightly, without having to affect his body too much during the game. speed.

Accelerate, move forward, catch up with the pass with the right foot, and after stopping the pass this time, Coutinho was directly in the game, completing a burst shot and hitting the goal.

Coutinho did not miss such an excellent opportunity with the explosive shot in this counterattack.

One kick hit the goal, hitting the near corner, the lower left corner of the goal, making it impossible for the goalkeeper of West Bromwich Albion to complete the save action.

The goal was scored, and Liverpool also led the opponent 2-0. The victory of this game should be smoothly won with less than 20 minutes left.

Liverpool's victory should be stable, but for the Liverpool players and the "Red Army" fans, they can only wait for another venue at this time, the results of Leicester City and Chelsea.

The players can’t get the news on the field. Klopp may take advantage of the dead ball to tell the Liverpool players that Leicester City’s game is still a draw. As long as the team can keep the victory, they have a chance To regain the championship.

On the other field, Ranieri, even though he heard the assistant coach whispering to him, did not go any further and gave further instructions.

At this time, the players of Leicester City are already constantly launching an offensive in the frontcourt. The players of Leicester City also know that they need to score goals and score points to take the lead and ensure the league championship.

At this time, telling the players on the field that Liverpool has secured the victory will not only mean nothing to the team's offense, but it will also disturb the players' mentality.

Ranieri chose to let the players play the final stage of the offense with peace of mind. As for whether they can complete goals, score points, win away games, and win the Premier League championship this season, everything depends on God's will.

75 minutes, 80 minutes, Leicester City's offense continued, but they just couldn't break through Chelsea's gate.

Just when many people believed that Chelsea would play a classic defensive performance and rely on their own spoilers to help Liverpool reverse and win the championship, Leicester City's constant pursuit of the number of offenses finally brought quality returns.

In the 81st minute of the game, Leicester City's attack on Chelsea continued.

The further the game time progresses, the more disorderly Leicester City's offense becomes.

For the team's offense, facing Chelsea's tight defense, it is impossible to say that the tactics that can definitely play offensive effects.

No matter where it hits, as long as there is a chance, even if it is a chance to pass the ball from the wing, Leicester City players must pass the ball into the penalty area to find opportunities to attack.

Under such an offensive situation, the Leicester City players continued to attack the point of contention with crosses from the side, and continued to try long-range shots.

In these two minutes, the offensive method with the least offensive conditions is the opportunity for Leicester City to constantly try to create miracles.

And that's it, in the case of "fighting luck" in the offense, Leicester City is even better.

When Chelsea's defense has reached the extreme, and it is also putting enough pressure on Leicester City's defense, it still cannot interfere with Leicester City's own offensive attempts.

Simple offense, seize every opportunity that can arise.

In the 81st minute of the game, when there was not much time left in the regular time, Drinwakert, who received the ball in the middle, leaned on the Chelsea defensive player's up grab, and then lightly passed the ball to the side and back.

As far as the distance of this ball is concerned, the defensive players think that this should be Leicester City reorganizing the team's offense and allowing Mahrez to complete the ball to strengthen the team's breakthrough on the wing.

The result is that under the pass of his teammates, Mahrez no longer showed his explosive power on the side, but took advantage of the fact that Chelsea's defenders did not step forward to block the ball at the first time, he ran up with all his strength and swung his feet directly. Just shoot.

With a long shot from 35 meters away, the world wave successfully avoided everyone in front of the ball's flight path, and flew directly to the goal.

Courtois, this time, he was not prepared for the opponent to hit the goal directly, and was blocked by his teammates in front of him, but when the ball came, it was already too late when he reacted .

Mahrez's long shot hit the goal. Although it was far away, it was powerful, the ball was fast, and the angle was extremely tricky.

Courtois's save did not stop the football, and the ball flew directly into the upper right corner of the goal.

"GOAL!!!"

"Mahrez!"

"My God! A wonderful world wave gave Leicester City the lead in the game!"

"It doesn't matter what the result of Liverpool's game is, as long as Leicester City can win this game, then Leicester City will win the Premier League championship this season!"

"Majeres! At the end of the game, he scored with a wonderful long shot and successfully scored a Premier League trophy for Leicester City!"

The fans of Leicester City went crazy, and even many neutral fans believed that Leicester City, this goal and this victory made them worthy of this championship!

If it is the most frustrated, it may be the Liverpool fans who are also paying attention to the live broadcast of this game, and some Chelsea fans who hope that the team will end perfectly.

Will the Premier League finally have a new king?

The fans of Leicester City, even the players on the field, were celebrating wildly.

They just need to go through the last ten minutes again and they will be the Premier League champions this season.

At this time, Ranieri will be the most sober.

The last substitution card was originally intended to be used to continue strengthening the team's offense.

And when the team takes the lead, of course, it immediately changes the previous substitution deployment.

Use a central defender to replace Vardy, whose physical fitness has almost reached its limit.

Leicester City is going to play an away game with five backs and a full-back iron barrel formation.

The task of Leicester City is very simple, that is, to do their best to defend themselves during the game, to block all possible attacks by Chelsea, and to defend this 1-0 away victory, then they will be champion.

No one thought that at the moment when Leicester City was in desperation, Mahrez relied on his shocking long-range shot to break the deadlock on the field.

Chelsea's excellent defense has always successfully blocked Leicester City's attack after attempt before.

But I didn't expect that Leicester City's strong attack withstood several times, but in the end Mahrez used a long-range shot to score the goal of the game.

It can only be said that Mahrez's goal is a life-saving elixir for the visiting team Leicester City, and after Leicester City took the lead, they can also rely on defense when there is not much time left in the game. , to harvest the first top league championship in team history.

As far as the Chelsea team is concerned, at this time, what they have to do is actually to prove themselves.

For Chelsea, whether it is Liverpool or Leicester City, it has nothing to do with who wins the championship.

If a London team with competing interests such as Tottenham or Arsenal were competing for the championship, Chelsea might have released the water directly, but neither Liverpool nor Leicester City have any interest in Chelsea.

The purpose of Chelsea's game is very simple, which is to prove their strength in front of the home fans.

It proves that after the team is back on track, even facing the top two league-ranked Liverpool and Leicester City, they have the strength to fight and can complete better offensive performance.

Chelsea must reassure the fans and look forward to their next season. They must have a better record at home and make the fans look at the new Chelsea with admiration.

Although there is not much time left in the game, Chelsea still does not intend to give up. At the last moment of the game, Chelsea wanted to try on the offensive end, and they were able to get the score back at home, by blocking Leicester City. The footsteps of victory, to complete the proof of oneself.
