Chapter 510 Terrifying execution ability, accident?
Johannesburg, the city of football.
The atmosphere at the World Cup final did not remain frenetic.
Because the pace of the game makes it difficult to keep fans excited.
To put it bluntly, they could barely see the picture that made their eyes light up.
Often, just as we have expectations, they disappear invisibly.
After 15 minutes of the game, the Spanish team completely entered the state.
At his peak, Harvey began to move around in the midfield and frontcourt, receiving, passing, running, receiving and transferring again.
The essence of the Spanish team's passing and control is based on accurate passing, overall passing skills and strong running awareness.
If it is an opponent with a balance of offense and defense, the Spanish team can frequently create threats based on its basics.
Because the opponent will give them an ideal attacking space.
Spaces that at least seemed ordinary in the past will become loopholes and flaws that they can exploit.
Faced with the Dutch team's intensive defense that compressed space to the extreme.
It is not enough for the Spanish team to rely solely on accurate passing and tacit coordination.
It also needs to be sublimated to control the speed of the rhythm.
After the opening, the Spanish team's passing and control organization was slow and orderly, which was to get into state.
When they enter the state, the rhythm of the regular offensive organization will speed up.
After the fast pace becomes the norm, the speed will suddenly increase even faster!
Continuous vertical and forward quick passes are combined with lateral transfers that utilize the width of the field.
After Spain's passing and control organization speeds up, there will inevitably be offensive points or wingers cutting in to hit the weak areas of the Dutch team's defense.
Opportunities for defensive space to appear are often fleeting.
It won't appear for long.
Spain's ability to capture space opportunities at a fast pace can be said to be the best in the world.
This is also their main way to control, press and create threats.
Spain is getting better.
But they found that the Dutch team's targeting was a bit...shameless!
With the Dutch team's solid and tacit defense, the space gaps in the defense will not be exposed just because the Dutch team moves from left to right or from right to left.
Even if vertical and layered passing and cutting feints are superimposed, there is a high probability that it will not happen.
It is impossible for one wave to penetrate today's nearly 451 formation of the Dutch team.
Spain must continuously shift the offensive to tear up the defense line, which means that the Dutch team's overall defense line moves back and forth in small increments, and obvious gaps are exposed due to out-of-synchronization or insufficient timely adjustment of the player positions.
The faster the transfer frequency and the more consecutive times, the more dangerous the Dutch defense is.
But the Dutch team didn't give them a chance.
In the 22nd minute of the game, when the Spanish team completed two consecutive lateral transfers, Kuyt directly dragged Xavi who took the initiative from behind and brought him to the ground.
Harvey also wants to continue to divert the offensive.
But the man fell to the ground.
As soon as he fell to the ground, the referee blew the whistle.
The rhythm is broken!
The Dutch team's defense can be reset and maintain an airtight zone defense again.
Kuyt's foul was decisive.
He had a good attitude and took the initiative to apologize to Harvey.
He also explained to the referee.
However, the referee still took out a yellow card after exchanging a few words with him.
Shen Hao's expression remained unchanged.
Kuyt's foul action was worthy of a yellow card.
It's just that his sincere attitude of admitting his mistake did not win him a "lenient treatment" result.
Shen Hao felt a little heavy.
If it develops at this pace.
I'm afraid he has to rule out the option of overtime.
If the game goes into overtime, the Dutch team will most likely be in trouble!
Let’s take a look first.
Don't draw such hasty conclusions.
It’s just that I have rich coaching experience, I have seen some signs and signals, and I can’t help but make predictions, and most of them are inseparable, unless there is a major trend turning point.
The Spanish team has not yet realized how rigorous and ruthless the Dutch team's defensive deployment is.
They are running like a sophisticated machine.
He completely suppressed the emotional side of his heart and was dominated by reason.
Five minutes later, when the Spanish team once again used high-speed continuous transfers to tear apart the Dutch team's defense, Alonso's late pass was knocked to the ground by Inglal.
They both fell to the ground together.
The referee's whistle sounded.
Inglal was awarded a foul and another yellow card was issued.
Shen Hao confirmed on the sidelines that today the referee was at least decisive when taking out the first yellow card without any hesitation.
Del Bosque also felt a little nervous while sitting on the coaching bench.
He sensed that the Dutch team had restrained the Spanish team from further attacking threats at the right time!
If the Spanish team does not play a simpler and more direct attack, or simply speed up the rhythm and reduce the impact of speeding up between fast and slow rhythms, then the Dutch team will seem to have triggered an order when the Spanish team repeatedly passes the ball to tear their defense apart, and it will definitely happen. A player committed a foul to interrupt the Spanish team's offensive rhythm!
Neither team's performance was exciting enough.
The Dutch team is rational, and so is the Spanish team.
The only difference is that the former performs a machine-like defense, while the latter also creates offensive threats in the best but relatively comfortable way.
Since the last European Cup, the core of Spain's success has been dominated by the Barcelona team.
The core of the midfield, the defensive leader in the backcourt, and the center axis, in addition to the strikers, are all Barcelona players who serve as the soul of the system.
Real Madrid doesn't play tiki-taka.
Therefore, Real Madrid has very few players who can serve as the main starters for the national team.
Goalkeeper Casillas, full-back Ramos.
Alonso played for Liverpool in the last European Cup and has only worn the Real Madrid jersey for one year.
Then it was gone.
Looking back at the Barcelona players, from the two central defenders, Pique and Puyol, to the midfielders Xavi and Busquets, as well as the two people in today's trident, Pedro and Iniesta.
Of the 11 starting players, Barcelona accounts for 6.
In terms of player cohesion in the technical and tactical system, the Spanish team as a whole has no problem.
But Ramos is obviously an outlier.
In the 32nd minute of the game, when Villa, who took the initiative to move closer to support Iniesta, passed the ball to Iniesta who was cutting inside, Van der Wiel decisively stretched his legs to intercept Iniesta before he entered the penalty area. , looks like an interception, but is actually a collision.
Iniesta rolled to the ground.
The referee took out the card again.
Vanderveer expressed dissatisfaction.
Van Bommel and Van Bronckhorst also put pressure on the referee, believing that their penalty was too harsh.
But the referee remained unmoved.
Spanish fans angrily blamed the Dutch team.
"This is the World Cup final. Are the Netherlands going to replicate the infamous red and yellow card battle with Portugal in the last World Cup?"
"There is no doubt that if the Netherlands were not dirty, they would have no chance at all."
"Hmph, this Dutch team will be despised by the world even if they win the championship!"
However, the Dutch fans were silent and depressed, their eyes showing the tenacity of the players on the field.
Does the strong one have to win?
Does Gorgeous have to win?
Win if you must.
What else are you playing for?
This is not the most gorgeous Netherlands in history, it is not the Netherlands with the most stars, and it is not the most promising Netherlands.
It can even be said that looking only at player ability over the past 40 years is relatively low.
The fantastic Netherlands led by Cruyff 40 years ago.
There were three Dutch Musketeers more than 20 years ago.
10 years ago there were Bergkamp, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Seedorf, the De Boer brothers, Stam, Cocu...
What do they have today?
Sneijder, Robben, Van Bommel, Van Bronckhorst.
Beyond that, are there players who play for top-flight championship teams?
Gone.
The whole world can scorn their style of play and criticize their utilitarianism.
they know.
If the Netherlands loses, the harshest voice in the world will be: It deserves it!
Who really cares about them?
Only themselves!
So at this moment, Dutch fans are united.
Really playing with the team.
Be the enemy of the world!
They looked solemn and used applause and cheering slogans to convey their spiritual power to the Orange Army.
Three Dutch players received yellow marks.
The Spanish players also reacted.
The Dutch team used fouls at the right time to interrupt their offensive rhythm and stifle the offensive they were about to try to create a threat.
At this time, Ramos didn't care so much.
There was no pressure on his defense, so he just threw himself into the offense.
As for Barcelona, they like to pass the ball around and don't judge whether it's right or wrong.
At least the Dutch team is now fully prepared.
He knew with his butt that it must have been the work of the tyrant in white.
That is his rival coach who casts a shadow on him every year in the Champions League.
Since the boiling frog's passing control cannot continue to threaten, it is better to be simple and crude.
As the game approached 40 minutes, Ramos suddenly reached the edge of the penalty area when the team's offensive organization was passing. After Pedro cut inside to form a containment, Ramos also cut inside in the next step.
Xavi naturally saw this, so he took the initiative to run to the right. Alonso's pass came, and he followed it up with a diagonal pass to the ground.
The football was accurately delivered to Ramos' feet, and the Dutch team's midfielder quickly retreated into the penalty area to squeeze space.
Ramos' crossing line was blocked not far away by Van Bronckhorst, so Ramos really regarded himself as a winger.
Dial the ball and change its direction towards the baseline, swing it at an angle and raise your leg to shoot.
The angle is small.
Even the top forwards in this position will most likely not make attempts with low success rates.
Ramos dared to kick.
It smells a bit stupid.
The football hits the side netting.
If it weren't for the World Cup finals, this shot wouldn't make the audience feel excited at all.
It was because the two teams almost didn't shoot, which made his shot look a bit scary.
2 minutes later, the Dutch team launched a fast break.
Sneijder passed the ball back from behind the center circle.
Van Bommel directly delivered an overhead pass.
Robben cuts inside and looks almost to have beaten offside, but it's just his man.
The ball was confiscated by Casillas who hit the edge of the penalty area.
There is no problem with Van Bommel's awareness of passing the ball. After all, it is also their tactical design.
But his footwork is unsatisfactory. If he were a little better, maybe Robben would be able to get a one-on-one opportunity.
Shen Hao remained calm and clapped his hands.
In the 44th minute of the game, Ramos broke into the Dutch team's penalty area again. This time he cut directly into the right rib area of the penalty area.
Head-on attack on Heitinga's defense zone.
Iniesta keenly saw the signs of his movement, stopped the ball and sent a diagonal cross after cutting in from the wing.
The football was hoisted into the right rib area of the penalty area.
This ball made Shen Hao's expression change instantly.
That guy Ramos!
But don’t let the gods descend to earth!
Facing the flying football, Ramos jumped high, and Heitinga missed the mark by one step!
And Ramos's impact was indeed unexpected.
A full-back actually reached the hinterland of their penalty area!
When Ramos's ball flew about one meter above the crossbar and towards the stands, all the Dutch fans breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Hao also secretly adjusted his breathing rhythm.
The scene just now was too scary.
It cannot be said that Ramos is not good at heading the ball, it can only be said that he did not seize this opportunity.
There was little time left in the first half.
The Dutch stalled for a moment and then launched a final attack.
Robben returned to the wing and dribbled forward. Under Capdevila's pressing pressure, he deliberately went outside to drive the entire Spanish defense back.
After dribbling from the outside of the penalty area into the penalty area, Robben faced Puyol, Capdevila, and Alonso at close range, as well as the blockade of Busquets and Pique around them.
Robben tried to change direction to expand the shooting angle. Puyol blocked the inside line and did not move easily. Capdevila did not extend his legs to intercept, squeezing Robben's ball control space. Alonso returned to defend in place to press.
Robben was forced to spike the ball. As soon as he spiked the ball, Pique stretched his legs to intercept the ball successfully. Then Robben bumped into Pique and fell to the ground.
Robben sat on the ground and showed his hands to the referee, as if asking why a penalty was not given.
Puyol held out his hand to him.
The Spanish defense line completed the encirclement and suppression of Robben in the most reliable way.
Even if it looks like they did it at the cost of four defenders.
But because they want stability, if they take risks, Puyol can just add anyone.
Robben didn't even have a chance to force his feet.
This makes Dutch fans even more depressed.
The first half of the game is over.
Spain scored 4 shots.
The Dutch team...0 shots.
Shen Hao turned around and walked into the players' tunnel with a normal expression.
Judging from the scene, the Spanish team has an overall advantage.
This is in line with outside expectations before the game.
The Spanish team is slow to warm up. The goals in the previous three knockout games were all scored in the second half, and after 60 minutes, so the current score of 0:0 is not unexpected.
After Shen Hao returned to the locker room, he started to make adjustments and training step by step.
The situation in the first half required him to make more targeted on-the-spot arrangements.
Ramos' header made him feel uneasy.
So he decided to make a substitution at midfield.
Under high pressure, Inglal, who originally played the role of lubricant in the midfield, could no longer see his role.
Because if the Dutch team really has a chance, one more adjustment may make the chance disappear.
They need to look for opportunities in the cracks. Once the opportunity does appear, it must be a lightning fast break or counterattack as quickly as possible!
After completing midfield adjustments and training, the players took a short rest and then walked outside to prepare for the second half.
At this time Shen Hao stopped Robben.
The other players continued to walk out, but when they turned around, they saw Shen Hao holding the back of Robben's head with one hand, their foreheads touching. Shen Hao whispered a few words to Robben, then let him go and patted him. His back.
Shen Hao didn't make any special arrangements for Robben, he was just reminding him to implement the tactics.
He was worried that after the first half of the game, some of the arrangements before the game might be forgotten by the players.
Robben is the core of the striker.
It can be said that the Dutch team in this competition is based on the defense of the whole team, and the offensive end only relies on Robben and Sneijder.
Excluding penalty shootouts, the Netherlands must score goals if they want to win the World Cup.
And if you want to score goals, Robben is the key!
