Chapter 211 The Second Difference

Butzkes finally chose a safer approach, and he passed the football back to central defender Pique. M

Then continue to run to meet Pique.

Of course, he hasn't forgotten to look back at Ledesma.

Obviously, Ledesma's defense just now left a deep impression on him.

For ordinary fans, most of them may not be able to see what is so subtle about Lazio's defense just now.

Anyway, they saw Barcelona's attack, and then Ledesma stood in front of Butzkes, and then Butzkes hesitated, and then passed the football sideways.

They didn't know that Lazio had completed a successful defense, and they didn't know Butzquez's embarrassment.

Even if the football is passed, they don't think that Lazio has successfully defended.

Because in the game, isn't Barcelona often passing the ball like this?

Only Butzkes knew how well Ledesma had defended just now.

※ ※ ※

Chang Sheng saw this scene from the sidelines, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Ledesma's bid is good, and this defense is one of the weapons Lazio uses to deal with Barcelona.

He is very proficient in dealing with Barcelona's passing and cutting. There are also teams with breakthrough masters in the formation. They cannot use man-to-man defense, but must use zone defense.

At the same time guard the opponent's ball receiver and receiver.

To put it simply, it is to block the opponent's passing line when defending, especially the opponent's forward passing line.

Force them to cross or better yet pass back.

As long as they can't move the football forward, the pressure on the defense is much less.

This defense is easy to say, but it is not easy to implement it.

Get stuck in the passing lane.

Just such a simple sentence,

The price to be paid is great.

First of all, Lazio's coaching staff has to repeatedly study Barcelona's game route. Know everyone's running position and passing characteristics, and then draw Barcelona's passing route map according to their characteristics.

Then, according to this legendary roadmap, Lazio's defensive positioning map will be formulated.

But this is just a static picture. During the game, the opponent will not let you stand in a good position and then attack.

Circumstances are constantly changing during the game.

The opponent's passing route summed up by the coaching staff is only a rough result. Can't be exact.

Then. Then convert this dynamic picture into a moving animation, aiming at the opponent's different running positions and passing routes. How should Lazio stand and move in defense.

Through the form of animation, everyone can understand.

It is clear at a glance.

Then comes the training, for the players to practice this defense against Barcelona.

It was really against Barcelona, ​​only a team like Barcelona that relies so much on passing.

This process is not a matter of a week.

Lazio has already started preparations as soon as the results of the quarter-final and semi-final draws came out.

It can be said. Chang Sheng didn't consider other possibilities at all. He didn't think CSKA Moscow would cause trouble for him, and he didn't think Arsenal could eliminate Barcelona.

In the end, the team that can reach the semi-finals must be his Lazio and Guardiola's Barcelona.

Fortunately, Changsheng's coaching staff is very familiar with Barcelona's tactics, so it saves a lot of effort when conducting targeted tactical arrangements and training.

※ ※ ※

Barcelona finally hit up the offense.

However, after going around in a circle, he broke through and hit it from the sidewalk.

Because it went around in circles. Time wasted, Lazio's defense was already organized.

So there was no threat to the gate guarded by Handanovic.

Then it was Lazio's turn to attack.

When Modric takes the ball forward in the backcourt, passes through the midfield, and intends to pass the ball forward. He had the same problem as Butzkes.

Barcelona's players got stuck in his passing lanes.

Want to pass the ball?

You can pass back or sideways, but just don't try to pass forward easily.

Best to pass back.

Therefore, Lazio's offense can only choose a cross.

In the end, the attack was over without any decent shots.

The result was that less than five minutes into the game, both sides had an attack, but neither created a better chance to score.

Then the offense is over.

In the eyes of pure spectators, the game may not have really started yet, and the two sides are just testing or looking for status.

But in the eyes of those who understand, the fierce competition has already begun.

What is up for grabs is the line of the passing lane.

Just like traffic arteries, whoever controls the road access in a war will greatly improve the chances of winning.

Because you can continuously send your troops and supplies up.

And if the transportation route is cut off by the opponent, there is no way to support the front line. You can only watch your front-line troops run out of ammunition and food, and then be wiped out by the opponent.

The same goes for football games. How do you play when you can't pass the ball forward?

You can't organize an attack, how can you threaten the opponent's goal? how do you score

Can't score, what do you do to win the game?

Of course, this defensive tactic does not mean that they are invincible, and the opponent does not even have a chance to pass the ball forward.

There is no defense that blocks opponents 100% in the world, and there is no player in the world who executes tactics meticulously and flawlessly for 90 minutes. After the coaches' "on paper" is executed by the players on the court, there will always be some deviations. Players are human too and mistakes are made.

And since everyone's defensive strategy is the same, it's good to react to this.

If you want to cut off my forward passing route, then I will desperately create opportunities, keep running, and find opportunities to pass the ball forward.

There are players with super personal abilities in both teams, and they alone may change the situation of the game.

In short, this game is even if everyone adopts the same targeted tactics. It does not mean that there will be dull scenes in the game, but it will be more exciting and intense.

Because in general, this game is a confrontational battle!

The best defense is offense!

※ ※ ※

Lazio took the lead in launching a more violent offensive.

In the eyes of outsiders, the ten-minute "trial period" has passed. It's time for Lazio to work hard.

Lazio's offense is also very winning style.

It's speed!

This is the second difference between Chang Sheng and Guardiola.

Chang Sheng thinks that -taka develops to the back. If you want to go further, continue to maintain a competitive advantage. Then you have to add the element of speed, which will sacrifice ball control, but the effect is very good and it will become more threatening. There will be more goals and it will be easier to win games.

But Guardiola doesn't think it's that simple.

He believes that control is the essence of -taka, no matter how you change it, this essence cannot be changed. Any attempt to sacrifice control for other effects is wrong. However, Chang Sheng's pursuit of speed inevitably sacrifices control. Because speed means risk, it means being difficult to handle, just like driving a car. When the speed of the car is slow, it is always easy to control. Once the speed of the car gets faster and faster, it will become more and more controllable, with a little carelessness. It could be a car crash.

If you want to ensure control, you must reduce the speed, and Chang Sheng is willing to sacrifice control for the sake of speed.

In Guardiola's view, this is very wrong and dangerous.

He would rather not have speed but also control. He believes that as long as he can control the football at his feet, he will definitely score. Just a matter of sooner or later.

If you pursue speed, you will frequently make various mistakes. These mistakes will provide the opponent with opportunities to attack, and even score goals...

Having speed can indeed improve your scoring rate, but maybe more often your goal is scored by the opponent before you score...

※ ※ ※

When Lazio's offensive speed increased, Barcelona's defensive strategy remained unchanged. It was still running non-stop, blocking the opponent's passing route.

It's just that the speed of moving positions is faster than before, and the positions are changed more frequently.

Guardiola explained this in advance.

Based on his understanding of Lazio, it is naturally impossible not to be prepared to face Lazio's fast attack strategy.

After defending Lazio's rapid attacks, it was time for Barcelona to attack.

Guardiola asked the players to be very patient in the game, waiting for Lazio to make mistakes.

In fact, he studied all Lazio's game videos in the last three months. Lazio's offense is fast, but there are also many mistakes, especially their offense is a bit chaotic because it is too fast.

The reason why these mistakes and confusion did not lead to Lazio's loss is nothing more than because Lazio's opponents are too weak.

But now it's different, now Lazio's opponent is Barcelona!

Such an opponent has a strong ability to seize opportunities.

We're not going to squander those opportunities like those teams...

※ ※ ※

When Lazio attacked, everyone was running.

Running around, just to keep Barcelona from getting stuck in their passing lanes.

They have to keep running to find opportunities.

Of course, the passing is faster and the running is faster, and the passing errors have indeed increased.

So Barcelona is not without opportunities to attack.

The two sides just came and went, fighting each other.

And both sides have fully demonstrated their characteristics in the attack.

Barcelona's precise control and Lazio's high-speed team advancement.

From time to time, the commentator applauded the wonderful performance of the players from both sides. The atmosphere of the Stadio Olimpico in Rome was motivated by this kind of confrontation, and there was no time to let it go cold.

The fans in front of the TV were also very hooked, even those Chinese fans who stayed up late to watch the game were not tired.

Falcao got an offensive opportunity in the penalty area, but shot a little on the right, and was held in Handanovic's arms.

Immediately after Lazio launched an attack, after a series of quick passes, the football was pushed to the vicinity of Barcelona's 30-meter area.

David Silva made a sudden pass, Gotze succeeded in offside, and then shot!

Football was taken out of the bottom line by Valdes.

"Beautiful! What a beautiful round! Barcelona attacked in front of Lazio's penalty area, patiently looking for chances. Finally, after a series of dizzyingly complex passes, the ball was given to Falcao, and Falcao's shot Slightly right. Lazio were quick to fight back...their quick advance put the ball into the box almost in the blink of an eye, forcing Valdés to make a great save too...a game like this is what we want The peak matchup I saw! Both teams showed their own characteristics to the fullest!"
