Football: Copy the attributes of peak Messi at the beginning

Chapter 82 The battle between the old and new world champions

After the opening, Spain did not rush to attack, but took possession of the ball and slowly tested the French's defensive strength.

The French team played three defensive midfielders today, and their ability to clean up the backcourt is very strong.

Judging from their running and interception at the beginning, the battle between the two sides in the midfield will probably be fierce.

In the first five minutes, Spain firmly held the advantage in possession.

After testing the strength of the opponent's defense, Spain began to speed up.

In the 7th minute, Lin Quan broke through with the ball on the right side of the penalty area.

However, he had just passed the defensive player and was about to enter the penalty area when he was tripped by the defensive player from behind.

Spain wins a free kick in the frontcourt.

This ball is very close to the penalty area line. A direct shot will be blocked by the wall. The position is not particularly good.

Lin Quan discussed with his teammates and took a tactical free kick. He passed the ball back and set up a cannon for his teammates.

Harvey, who was originally behind Lin Quan, suddenly gave up his position when the ball approached him, giving the chance to shoot to his teammates.

Spanish center back Ramos unexpectedly appeared from behind, volleyed the ball towards the goal.

The players of the French team were shaken by Xavi, and they did not expect that the last shot was actually the opponent's central defender.

Goalkeeper Lori stood still and did not react to the ball.

However, Ramos' shot went over the crossbar, letting the French players breathe a sigh of relief.

Ramos couldn't help but laugh when he saw the ball flying into the stands.

It is somewhat unreliable to let the defenders take long-range shots. After all, they are always used to making clearances with their big feet.

In the 11th minute of the game, Lin Quan retreated to catch the ball, and Iniesta pulled up to the side. The two performed wonderful cooperation on the wing!

One-two, two-two, and he was about to enter the penalty area, but the ball was cleared by the opponent's defender in time and kicked out of the sideline.

Spain's offense was quite strong in these few minutes, but it was difficult for their offense to penetrate the French team's defense.

The opponent's defensive midfielder has too much scope to sweep away, and the defensive intensity is also very high. Not to mention the physical fitness, the Spanish players cannot take advantage of the physical confrontation.

However, most of the French team's energy was invested in defense. They had too few players in the frontcourt, and several counterattacks were ended by Spanish players in their own half due to lack of support.

The game time passed like this little by little, and neither side seemed to be able to do anything against the other.

Lin Quan saw that the opponent's defense in the penalty area was very tight and the fighting in the midfield was so fierce, so he took the initiative to retreat and formed a diamond position with Iniesta and others.

The advantage of this is that the forward and midfielder teammates are closer, shortening the passing distance and reducing the risk of being intercepted.

And after he retreated, his position actually changed to a midfielder, which was equivalent to adding another person in the midfield.

As a result, the Spanish team slowly gained the upper hand in the midfield battle, and their ability to pass threatening balls also improved.

On the sidelines, Bosque nodded with satisfaction when he saw Lin Quan's choice.

He had just noticed this problem and was about to remind the players on the field.

Unexpectedly, the other party discovered this on his own and made adjustments in time.

This guy has a very good ability to read the game!

In the 18th minute, Iniesta broke through on the left side of the penalty area and was intercepted. He passed the ball back to his teammates.

Harvey made the transition to Lin Quan. Lin Quan dribbled the ball horizontally and stretched his position. He glanced at the goalkeeper's position and suddenly shot a cold arrow with his right foot from the top of the arc in the penalty area.

The quality of this shot was extremely high, but because the angle was pursued too much, the ball hit the goal post.

More than 50,000 fans in the Calderon Stadium lamented in unison that the ball would have been just a little bit off!

The French team was taken aback and quickly strengthened its defense against long shots.

Seeing that the opponent had strengthened its defense near the top of the penalty area, Lin Quan decisively ran to the wing and started attacking from both sides of the penalty area.

In the 22nd minute, Lin Quan broke through on the right wing and went down to the bottom. After attracting the defense of the opponent's defender, he passed the ball to his teammate Pedro who cut inside.

Pedro faked a shot and passed the ball straight to David Silva on the other side.

Silva received the ball on the left side of the penalty area and shot low with his right foot. The ball passed through the legs of the defender and was easily saved by Lori.

The ball had a good chance and was well played, but it was a pity that it failed to pass the goalkeeper's fingers.

Three minutes later, Lin Quan dribbled the ball down to the bottom again. When he reached the bottom line, he passed the ball across the goal.

This was a low ball with a very fast speed. Iniesta, David Silva and Pedro all fell to the ground and shot in front of the goal. As long as one of the three touched the ball, it was basically a A goal was scored.

But these three are all small players, and the tallest Iniesta is only 1.71 meters.

The legs of the three of them were slightly shorter, just a dozen centimeters short, but none of them touched the ball, and the ball slipped past the goal.

The Calderon Stadium sighed again. Iniesta, who missed the goal, looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

There is no way, you are only born this tall, so what should you do?

The French team broke out in a cold sweat. If this goal had been played by a high center like Giroud, it would probably have been scored.

We can't let this kid continue to make such unscrupulous crosses. Who knows if they will be so lucky next time?

There was a lot of defensive pressure on the French team during this period, and even Benzema and others on the front line returned to the rear to participate in the defense.

However, this seemed to be of no use. On the contrary, because of their retreat, Spain's defensive pressure was greatly reduced, and more troops could be invested in the attack.

In the 25th minute, Lin Quan dribbled the ball downfield again, and French team's full-back Debich rushed up immediately, trying to stop his cross.

Debich used to play as a winger, but was later transformed into a full-back at Lille.

This is a player who is strong in offense and weak in defense. After reviewing the opponent's characteristics in his mind, Lin Quan made a decision.

He did not choose to pass the ball, but drove the ball towards the penalty area.

Debich stood in front of him, retreating sideways and blocking his position, intending to squeeze him toward the baseline.

Lin Quan bent his right knee and made a forward breakthrough.

Based on his defensive experience, Debich judged that the opponent planned to break through from his right, so he immediately moved his steps to defend the right side.

As a result, after he adjusted his center of gravity, he found that the other party was fake.

As he moved, Lin Quan quickly touched the ball with his left foot, pushed the ball toward the baseline, circled his body from outside the baseline, and overtook the opponent in the corner.

Debich was dumbfounded, could he still play like this?

The bottom line is that the little prince Benzema was also dumbfounded. Isn't this what he learned from me?

From the perspective of a French fan standing behind the French team's goal, the ball seemed to go out of bounds.

So they booed Lin Quan and put pressure on the referee, shouting that the ball was out of bounds and asking the referee to blow the whistle.

The bottom line referee's eyes widened and he stared at the ball intently. As soon as the ball went out of bounds, he would blow the whistle as soon as possible.

But the ball just touched the baseline and never made it out.

After Lin Quan passed Debich, he took the ball away before the French player who was covering up the defense could damage the ball, accelerated and entered the penalty area.

Debich was passed, Lin Quan entered the penalty area again, and the right side of the French team's penalty area became turbulent.

They did not forget the coach’s instructions before the start of the game:

In the Spanish team, the biggest threat is the No. 30 player!

This kid scored 3 goals in the last game. If we relax our defense a little bit, he might score a goal.

Without much thought, Scocherny and Sacco pounced on Lin Quan almost subconsciously.

Lin Quan saw that the two men were attacking fiercely, and he was not sure that he could get past them in a short time and then hit the door.

He glanced at the goalkeeper's position and found that the goalkeeper was standing on the near side of the goal, blocking the angle of his shot.

This position means that most of the French team's goals are empty!

As long as the ball can be passed out, it is an opportunity to hit an empty goal.

So he flicked the ball and tried to shoot.

Scocherny immediately raised his leg to interfere, and Sakho also hurriedly stepped forward to block it with his arm behind his back.

This was what Lin Quan was waiting for. When he saw Scacerny raising his foot, he immediately knocked the ball horizontally into the open space in the middle of the penalty area.

If the teammates have enough tacit understanding, someone should move forward and shoot at this time.

Sure enough, when he passed the ball, a red figure wearing No. 6 jersey rushed out from behind, caught up with the ball, fell to the ground, tackled the ball, and kicked the ball into the goal.

In the 26th minute of the game, Lin Quan assisted Iniesta to score, and Spain temporarily led the French team 1:0.
