King of Competition

Chapter 203 Disadvantages of Opening

Benitez formed a 4231 formation for Liverpool, which is also the best formation for the Spaniards. He is making Liverpool the most ideal team in his heart with his own efforts. This goal seems far away, but he can't help working hard.

The 4231 formation is a Spanish-style lineup that is very suitable for passing and receiving.

It seems a little too much to say, because every team can use this formation, not just the Spanish team. But in fact, the average English team forms such a formation, which means that they are going to play offensive tactics.

For example, Arsenal, Arsenal occasionally uses such a formation: the strongest center of a team is at the front, and the left, right and middle three forwards behind him keep hitting the opponent's defense line. For the center, they also look for opportunities for the team to score goals. It is best for one of the two midfielders behind him to be good at attacking, and the other is good at defense, so it can To meet the requirements of the balance of attack and defense in the midfield, due to the mobilization of the three forwards in the front court, the players on the field can suppress the formation to the front court in the shortest time.

Therefore, such a formation is obviously an offensive-oriented formation in England.

However, in Spanish football tactics, this formation has more meaning, because the essence of Spanish football style is to use continuous passing and receiving to control the situation of the game, rather than creating opportunities. The victory of Spanish football does not simply create more opportunities and then score more goals than the opponent. This seems to be universal, but the person who says so is definitely not a pure Spanish fan.

The purest Spanish team matches, and victory is often linked to the control of the situation.

The team that can best control the situation often has a much higher winning rate. A large part of their formation is to let the players in the team use continuous tearing to control the whole game, so that the team is always on the active side, so that the other side must be passive, then the team's opportunity is It will increase a lot.

Benitez's set of 4231. In fact, the bigger purpose is to let the center players stay away from the team's cooperation. In this way, the center has really become a center in the traditional sense. They just need to wait for the opportunity in the front court and wait for the opportunity to score.

That is to say, Don Jack's task in this game is to score goals.

Before the start of the game, Benitez has been reminding Don Jack Don that after receiving the ball, he can carry the ball by himself and choose to shoot by himself. In fact, he gave Don Jack such a lot of freedom to separate Don Jack from Liverpool's attack, so that the remaining nine people in the team can easily It's time to cooperate.

In this way, Don Jack seems to have become a burden...

In fact, he always thought so before the game, but in fact, Benitez formulated this tactic entirely for him. If Don Jack can integrate into the team's tactical play, then there is no need for Benitez to separate him from the tactics? However, Don Jack's consciousness and cooperation are impossible to keep up with the pace of a team like Liverpool in a short period of time, let alone the new Liverpool that Benitez asked for into the Spanish style.

If Don Jack Don is an ordinary player, it will take him at least half a year or more to really integrate into Liverpool. Benitez can't always give him a chance to play, but Don Jack's goal efficiency is on the surface. If Benitez puts such a Liverpool fans will not agree if the players are put on the bench, and Benitez also feels that letting Don Jack play is more efficient than his so-called Spanish-style Liverpool goal...

After playing against West Bromwich Albion, after finding that the brunette boy was out of touch with the team's tactics, Benitez thought hard for a few nights and finally perfected the tactic. In his words, "Since it is difficult for this boy to integrate into the team's tactics, let him get rid of it..."

Don Jack became Liverpool's 'freedom center'.

This time, under Benitez's tactics, he really became a free agent. Whether it's offensive or defensive, he wants to do whatever he wants on the court. Anyway, he is not a member of the team's tactics... Of course, Don Jack can only play like this. In fact, the purpose of his playing is to score goals for the team. A group of teammates have worked hard for a long time to create opportunities for himself. If he can't score a goal, you can imagine that the result will not be very good. Benitez will replace him without hesitation.

In fact, Don Jack is not the only one who doesn't adapt to Benitez's tactics.

In fact, it is also difficult for Baroche to fit in. As a tall center who has been in England for a long time, it is not easy for him to quickly enter Benitez's tactics. So Baroche's current position is more dangerous than Pangler. However, it is also a blessing in disguise. In this game, Baroche became Don Jack's chief substitute: since it is difficult for him to adapt to the style of play in a short time, let's be Jack Don's substitute... Anyway, neither of them can adapt in a short time.

Barosh should thank Don Jack.

With such a formation, the first use of it made Benitez a little nervous, hoping to see the real effect, and Monaco's starting list before the game made the Spaniards very entangled.

Maicon, Faenrud, Peres, Evra.

In Monaco's starting lineup, these four players are lined up, among which Macon is obviously very good at intercepting and stealing players. In addition, Monaco's midfielder is equivalent to Monaco putting all five players in the midfield. In the absence of a response, this is enough to deal with the midfield. Everything has changed.

So, Benitez always thought that the other side was going to play a midfield match with Liverpool, which gave the Spaniards a headache.

However, Monaco's midfield line came directly and hit Liverpool unprepared.

Taking advantage of the kick-off opportunity, Monaco's formation moved directly forward. Under the surprised eyes of Liverpool players, their 'middlefield line' moved forward horizontally and directly opened Liverpool's defense with a few simple passes and catches. Subsequently, McCon seized the opportunity to insert the front and moved the ball across the midfield on the side. Caron caught the ball and made a long shot and flew out of the bottom line.

This made the whole audience start with fear, and made Benitez feel that his guess might be wrong? Judging from this wave of offense, Monaco is not going to play midfield with Liverpool, but just wants to take advantage of the number of midfielders to use offensive football to win?

Benitez is not sure, because he doesn't know much about Monaco.

A wave of Monaco's attack made Liverpool players nervous. After the ball changed the ball, Liverpool also launched an attack and handed the ball to the feet of Don Jack in the front. Unfortunately, Don Jack still failed to get a shot. He was directly stopped by two Monaco players. It was Evra and Pere. It was the two Monaco midfielders. The entanglement between the two made Don Jack miss the opportunity. As a result, the two kept entangled, and the relationship between the position made Don could only pass the ball, and finally the football was cut off by the other side when it was split.

When taking the ball, Don Jack also passed the ball.

Although Don Jack's skills are not very good, he still has a little confidence to pass two people with his strong body and speed. However, he is defended by two midfielders, and there are two defenders staring in front of him. No matter how confident he is, it is impossible for him to break through the encirclement of four people.

It seems that Monaco's tactics are like this.

For themselves, they divided two people to grab the ball, and then two people took it. In this way, they really received special care for the defense of the four people... Don Jack is a little self-deprecating... There is still a little helplessness.

But soon, he found that it was not like this.

Because in the second Liverpool attack, Cise, who started on the field, encountered the same problem on the right side. He was stuck by a full-back from Monaco, and two Monaco players took over... Don Jack looked around him and seemed to have only one Monaco player, but when Cisse passed the ball to him, the player who defended Cisse ran to the right penalty line and became Don Jack's defender.

This...???

For the understanding of tactics, it is difficult for Don Jack, who is still at the basic level, to grasp how Monaco did it. However, he knew that this must be a defensive tactic, and the other party did not make a special arrangement for himself.

But even so, he really doesn't seem to be able to do anything in a short time.

This attack still has no effect. After Monaco took the ball, Evra passed from the side. Adebayo showed his footwork over Gerrard, and then hit the goal in the near corner. The football deflected the post and flew out of the bottom line.

In the stands, Liverpool fans took a long breath.

"The game has just begun, and Monaco seems to have a little advantage. In just three minutes, they completed two threatening shots!"

"It's hard for Liverpool to win this game. They have been suppressed."

"Just now, Liverpool's No. 10 Jack. Li's two consecutive passes were interrupted, which is not a good omen. I don't know if this young man is out of shape. At Anfield, such a performance should not appear on the Liverpool team. They have to get into the game quickly.
