Chapter 290 Tottenham Wings (40/139)

When the game between Lazio and Tottenham Hotspur started, the Lazio players quickly admired their boss. m

The boss is right, but Tottenham Hotspur's two wings are very sharp.

Especially their left lane.

The monkey-like Tottenham Hotspur No. 3 looks like an F1 car!

At the beginning, when the Lazio players defended him, they were a little slack and gave Bell a gap, so Bell unceremoniously waded the football through that place.

When he picked up his speed, it was like a gust of wind, blowing past Lazio's right back Azpilicueta.

When Azpilicueta reacted and turned around to chase again, Bell threw him five or six meters away.

"God, the Welshman is so fast!"

exclaimed the Italian narrator.

Bell, who broke through Azpilicueta, made a cross at the end, and Crouch, who followed up in the middle, pushed the football high.

But when Crouch jumped up to compete for the top, many Lazio fans felt a chill, because that tall guy was too tall!

Let him hit the ball in front of the goal, will Lazio still be okay?

Fortunately, under the interference of Jose Passarella, Crouch went higher.

Seeing this scene, Chang Sheng stood up from his seat, then walked quickly to the sidelines, and shouted to the inside: "What did I say? Watch out for the two sides! Don't take it lightly!!"

In fact, without his reminder, the Lazio players have realized that they really cannot take it lightly.

Tottenham Hotspur's wing attack is really sharp!

Fortunately, Giroud was injured before this game. Otherwise, if Giroud came to hit the ball, he might have scored...

Next, Lazio will follow the tactics formulated by Changsheng before the game, and strictly prevent the two sides from sticking to it, and will not give Bell and Lennon a chance to rush.

Especially Bell. After seeing his speed once,

Lazio will now choose to shrink the defense immediately when defending him.

against speed players. The most important thing is not to give them room to sprint.

Lazio shrinks the defense and does not give Bell the space to add up his speed. No matter how fast he is, it is useless.

Then Lazio took advantage of the huge gap in overall strength to bombard Tottenham Hotspur, leaving Tottenham Hotspur without much time to think about offense.

With a two-pronged approach, the Welsh Flying Wing Bell, who became famous in this game and eventually became famous in Europe, was directly strangled in his infancy.

If Bell didn't show it at all in this game, whether he will still attract the attention of those giants in the future, then I don't know...

※ ※ ※

Bale quickly sensed the change at Lazio.

When he still wants to continue to use speed to break through. He found that the other party did not give him the space to do so.

If he breaks through forcefully, the final result is likely to wade the football out of the bottom line...

The opponent's three defensive lines are very delicately arranged. He can break through the first player with speed, but the football he goes out will be destroyed by the opponent's second defensive player.

Because the gap between each defensive player is neither large nor small. It is very reasonable, neither let Bell speed up to wade through two people, nor let Bell use his speed to break through each of them.

After Bell tried several times, they all ended in failure.

He had to change his style of play and go to the middle.

However, at this time, Bell has just transformed from a left back to a left forward, and he is more suitable for activities on the wing, for the center. He had no idea, so he ran to the middle lane temporarily, so naturally he couldn't play well.

Because people like Jose Passarella, Chiellini, and Ledesma are not just for show.

He switches positions with Lennon again, he goes to the right.

The result is the same as on the left flank.

And not only him. Lennon had the same problem.

Tottenham Hotspur's sharpest weapon, the two wing wings flying together, was just restricted by Lazio.

※ ※ ※

Seeing this, Redknapp simply ordered his team to shrink their defense. Played a defensive counterattack in the away game.

Anyway, they are playing away games, and they are in the group stage. There is no need to fight too hard.

It would be best if the away game can keep a draw.

Redknapp did not want to compete with Lazio for the first place in the group.

He knew that once Chang Sheng got serious, his team would have no chance at all.

So Tottenham Hotspur's initial idea was to compete to qualify as second in the group.

In the first two rounds of the group stage, Tottenham Hotspur achieved an unbeaten result of one win and one draw, second only to Lazio, which has won two games and two games, and ranked second in the group.

For a team participating in the UEFA Champions League for the first time in 48 years, it is indeed not easy to achieve such results.

It's no wonder that Tottenham Hotspur would want to play against Lazio on the away game.

Of course, after they discovered the gap in strength between themselves and Lazio, they quickly adjusted their tactics.

In the next game, Tottenham Hotspur basically shrunk their defense and did not go out in their own half.

But Lazio didn't bombard their half-court either.

Because Chang Sheng is very concerned about Tottenham Hotspur's two wings. If Lazio really presses across the board, it will simply give the opponent an excellent chance to counterattack, and Bell and Lennon will come in handy.

So no matter what time it is, the four players on Lazio's defense line must be in their positions. Chang Sheng would rather sacrifice the assists of two full-backs than be blown up by the opponent's counterattack.

Chang Sheng attaches even more importance to Tottenham than to Milan.

This may feel strange.

But actually it's normal.

Because anything in this world is frightening to the extreme.

The victorious Lazio is fast enough, but they are advancing fast overall.

In terms of the speed of individual players, no one in Lazio can match the two wingers of Tottenham Hotspur.

Especially Gareth Bell.

When Wenger went to Southampton to scout people, he fell in love with Walcott, who was said to be able to run track and field. But Bell, who was roommate with Walcott, was just as fast.

No matter how subtle Lazio's tactics are, and no matter how good the personal abilities of Lazio's players are. As long as there is a gap, Bell will move the football forward and maximize his speed. Lazio's previous advantages are gone.

The two things of speed and strength, when brought to the extreme, have such a simple and effective effect. The so-called great strength produces miracles, but there are also miracles when the speed is fast.

Chang Sheng doesn't want to be a foil for Bell alone like Benitez's Inter Milan, let the four people in his defense line take turns to be green leaves for Bell, to set off Bell's excellent speed.

The match between Tottenham Hotspur and Inter Milan was like a wonderful advertisement for Bale.

Since then, Bell's net worth has skyrocketed. He became the hottest celebrity in Europe.

Lazio's offense was not layered enough as the defenders were defending Tottenham's possible counterattacks from the backcourt.

But there is no way, it is better than losing the ball.

Tottenham Hotspur had to shrink their defense and had no chance of scoring.

So the two sides are so deadlocked.

The England commentator was pleased with Tottenham's performance.

"...Looks like Lazio were quite wary of the pace of Bale and Lennon, so they didn't press all the way up. Without the support of the full-backs, Lazio's attack was not as strong as usual...Redknapp did a good job! "

The current situation is like this. If a team can not concede the ball when facing the pull-up, even if the scene is embarrassing, it will be enough to make their supporters happy.

You must know that there are many teams that can't even do this. They were overwhelmed by Lazio's devastating offensive as soon as they came up...

But Lazio would be stumped if it was that simple. Then it is impossible for them to become the Triple Crown.

Without the assists of the full-backs, Lazio still has an attacking lineup in the frontcourt.

As long as these people play normally, it is enough for Tottenham Hotspur to drink a pot.

In the 41st minute, it seemed that the first half was coming to an end. Redknapp came to the sidelines and signaled the Tottenham Hotspur players to further shrink their defense, and Lazio must not be allowed to score at the last minute.

As long as they can keep a 0:0 in the first half, it can boost the players' confidence. Help the team finally return to White Hart Lane with a draw.

To be able to bring a draw back from the Stadio Olimpico in Rome would be great!

Tottenham Hotspur's players have weighed in on the latest instructions from their manager. So they shrink even tighter.

This is even more detrimental to Lazio's offense.

Under such circumstances, Lazio accelerated the speed of attack.

All kinds of fast passes and runs, constantly trying to pass into Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area.

Tottenham Hotspur adopts a zone defense. The advantage of this is to ensure that their defense zone will not be disrupted by Lazio's fast pass and run tactics, and there will be no obvious gaps in a certain place.

But there are also disadvantages, that is... easy to mark people but not tight! Because they don't mark people in the defense area...

Especially against players with flexible moves...

The starting center for Lazio in this game is not Cavani, but Klose.

The old German striker's running position is quite flexible.

When the game progressed to the forty-third minute, it seemed that the first half was coming to an end. Lazio attacked again.

After a dizzying series of passes and cuts, David Silva suddenly passed the football from the left with a half-high ball into the penalty area.

It was a gap, but without players from either side, it didn't look like much of a threat.

But when the football fell, everyone was surprised to find that Klose appeared there!

"Klose—!"

Not offside?

Onside!

Because Klose is plugged in after!

At this time, the shortcomings of Tottenham Hotspur's zone defense were exposed.

Klose received the ball almost unguarded. He calmly stopped the football with his chest, followed by a volley!

Gomez, the Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper who ran to block the near corner, made a save but missed the football.

The football flew past his fingertips and went straight to the far corner!

Then, in full view, hit the far post and bounced into the goal...
