Seven Crowns

Chapter 85 Fulcrum

On the court, more than 20 minutes into the final, Lu Wenbin didn't even take a shot.

This is relatively rare for Lu Wenbin.

The reason is that although Lu Wenbin just added two points of dribbling attributes, the players of Dalian No. 48 Middle School are stronger than all the opponents Lu Wenbin had encountered before.

As long as someone fouls to delay the time, the other players of the Dalian team return to defense in place, set up a good defense line, and if four or five people stop in front of Lu Wenbin, Lu Wenbin will be difficult to break through even if his dribbling ability improves.

Not only that, when Lu Wenbin's counterattack was contained by the opponent's foul tactics, the backcourt of Meijiang Middle School was also under enormous pressure.

Dalian No. 48 Middle School itself is much stronger than Meijiang Middle School, and two members of Dalian Shide Youth Team participated in the attack, which made Bi Rui, Yu Yuanhang and others overwhelmed.

Finally, in the 26th minute, the goal of Meijiang Middle School was lost.

A midfielder's long-range shot from Dalian No. 48 Middle School was saved by Yu Yuanhang, but the ball landed at the feet of the opponent's No. 9 striker.

In the chaotic penalty area, the opponent's No. 9 striker was the first to react, stretched out his foot to poke, and the ball rolled into the goal from Yu Yuanhang's side.

In the 26th minute, Dalian No. 48 Middle School led Guizhou Meijiang Middle School 1-0. For the first time, Meijiang Middle School conceded the ball in the game and was behind.

After scoring the first goal, the players of Dalian No. 48 Middle School celebrated warmly, while the players of Meijiang Middle School were a little frustrated.

Being advanced by the opponent, the next game will be a bit difficult for Meijiang Middle School.

Continuing to defend when the score is behind, even if the next ball is not lost, it is meaningless, and still loses the game 0-1.

If the attack is strengthened, the defensive strength will drop again, which will give the opponent more space. What if he loses the ball again? I'm afraid I'm really going to lose the game.

In the next game, will you continue to defend or strengthen your offense to tie the game? Everyone did not turn their attention to the coach Zhang Minghai on the sidelines.

Zhang Minghai frowned and thought about it for a while, but he still didn't dare to let the team press on the offense, for fear that if he conceded another goal, he would almost lose if he was two goals behind.

However, seeing Dalian No. 48 Middle School's foul tactics against Lu Wenbin, Lu Wenbin was really unsure by himself.

The main reason is that everyone in Meijiang Middle School except Lu Wenbin was defending in the backcourt. In order to receive the ball, Lu Wenbin had to withdraw near the midline to get the ball.

Then, the opponent's foul is near the center line, the probability of getting a card is small, and the threat of a free kick is not large.

But if a fulcrum can be added between Lu Wenbin and the back line, so that Lu Wenbin is always in the half of Dalian 48, closer to the goal, the opponent will not dare to foul easily.

The reason is that during the referee's enforcement process, the closer to the goal, the greater the chance of the foul player getting a card. Also, the threat of free kicks is higher.

Even if he can't score a direct free-kick, as long as he passes the ball into the penalty area, Lu Wenbin's bouncing is enough to compete with the tall defenders of the opponent for a header.

Even those guards of the Dalian team who are more than 1.8 meters tall may not be able to compete with Lu Wenbin, who is 1.67 meters tall, in jumping.

After making the decision, Zhang Minghai beckoned to let Xiang Youming, who was closer to him, come to the sidelines, and explained a few words, and asked him to tell Han Dapeng, Lu Wenbin and others.

Next, after Meijiang Middle School opened the ball, the formation became 5311, and Han Dapeng became the fulcrum between Lu Wenbin and the back line.

As a striker, Han Dapeng's own defensive ability is not very good. He only has one more head in the backcourt, and his defensive contribution is actually not great.

Therefore, Han Dapeng is the only one who is suitable to be the fulcrum.

As for Dalian No. 48 Middle School, they continued to attack and did not switch to defensive counterattacks because they were one goal ahead.

On the one hand, it is because their own football is offensive football, and defense is not their specialty. Unlike Meijiang Middle School, they use the same set of tactics from the county to the national finals, and the back line cooperates tacitly.

On the other hand, it is also the Dalian team that cannot guarantee that Lu Wenbin will not score a goal or assist in the next game.

If Lu Wenbin is allowed to score a goal, tie the game, and drag the game into overtime, it will definitely be bad news for Dalian No. 48 Middle School.

You know, the Dalian team reached the quarter-finals and semi-finals after playing for 120 minutes, and their physical fitness is much worse than that of Meijiang Middle School.

Therefore, Dalian's tactic is to continue to attack, at least to score one more goal and lead two goals before starting defense.

With only a one-ball lead now, they have to keep attacking.

The game continues.

There is a fulcrum near the center line. After Lu Wenbin got closer to the penalty area line, he received fewer intentional fouls.

Lu Wenbin's 13/13 dribbling finally started to show off his power.

In the 34th minute, Lu Wenbin successfully passed two people after taking the ball, only to be dragged to the ground by the opponent's last defender at the front of the penalty area.

This deliberate foul action, which obviously hindered the attack, caused the opposing defender to receive a yellow card.

Not only that, but the free kick from Nie Yingkun was also successfully contested by Lu Wenbin among the crowd in the penalty area.

It's a pity that the top of the ball was a little higher and flew off the crossbar. Otherwise, Meijiang Middle School may have equalized the score.

Next, the defender who was carrying the yellow card became a little timid and did not dare to foul easily.

The other two also became a bit of a shot, fearing that the foul would give Lu Wenbin a chance to fight for the top with a free kick.

Time passed slowly, and Dalian No. 48 Middle School's attack did not continue to score goals, but the counterattack from Meijiang Middle School became more and more threatening.

In the 45th minute, when the first half of the game was about to end, Lu Wenbin got another counterattack.

After receiving the ball from his teammates in the backcourt, Han Dapeng quickly kicked to the frontcourt.

Although the pass was inaccurate, Lu Wenbin still used his speed to grab the ball before the opponent's midfielder.

Then, Lu Wenbin, who knocked the ball with his heel, passed the ball and passed the defensive midfielder.

Afterwards, facing the remaining two central defenders of the opponent, Lu Wenbin knocked one of the defenders to the ground with a dazzling series of cycling and quick smashes, and the other defender was also stuck by Lu Wenbin on his side.

Lu Wenbin got a shot from the front of the penalty area.

Seeing that Lu Wenbin was about to rush into the penalty area, the defender who was stuck by Lu Wenbin on the left side of his body quickly made a decision: foul.
