Chapter 173 Counterattack

Tottenham is behind, and this is not the situation Lao Lei and his disciples want to see.

This means that even if they win one, they only have the possibility of playing extra time. For Tottenham, they are definitely extremely reluctant to play extra time.

The Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and so many events in the current League Cup have made it difficult for them to squeeze out their physical strength to deal with the thirty minutes that consumes the most physical energy, so they can only find ways to solve the game within 90 minutes.

This requires them to score two goals in the next period of time.

It's very difficult, so they can only put a big push.

The Donetsk Miners, who have taken the lead, are also extremely nervous at this time, and they also do not want to be dragged to overtime by Tottenham.

All Miner players want to declare their strength with a win at home.

The team wants to use a victory to declare that this team of Kings from Ukraine is also a popular team that is highly competitive in the UEFA Cup.

At this time, the forward, midfield and defenders of the entire Miners team were connected together, which was extremely tight.

According to Lucescu's tactical deployment, he transferred Xu Qi back and formed a strong defensive formation with three midfielders, Fernandinho and Isinho.

Xu Qi stood between Fernandinho and Isinho, acting as an offensive and defensive transformation.

In addition to intercepting the ball, he also needs to organize counterattacks on the spot as soon as possible. This position is probably the position of a central advanceer.

In the front midfielder position, Judson and William are partnering, and the forward line is still Adriano.

This is basically the 4321 Christmas tree formation that is famous in football.

By accumulating midfields, the restrictions on Tottenham can be achieved, making it impossible for Tottenham to organize an effective attack.

Xu Qi felt that even with such midfield density, even for Barcelona and Arsenal, it would take a lot of effort to break through.

Of course, Tottenham is not immune to the vulgarity, which has to make them feel a headache.

They can only hope to complete the assault through the wing attack.

Fernandinho and Isinho are also very physically strong, and they can replenish the positions of the two full-backs in time to assist in the defense on the wing.

It looks like a formation that is defending to the end.

If this continues, it seems that Tottenham has almost no chance to win back the score.

After they got the ball, they could only look for Darren Bent and Fraze Campbell in the penalty area, but neither of these two forwards were high centers in the traditional sense. They stood in front of Ziglinsky and Iszenko and were obviously much shorter.

Therefore, the miners are not afraid of fighting through the hoisting tactics.

Lao Lei was also paced back and forth on the sidelines. He didn't have any tricks to break through the Miners' defense. He originally wanted Dawson to rush forward to play the role of a center forward, but after thinking about it, he gave up the idea.

And time is passing, and it seems that the time left for Tottenham is getting less and less.

Both sides were also constantly entangled in the midfield. Not to mention that Tottenham wanted to attack, it was difficult for them to even keep the ball firmly under their feet.

Xu Qi was very impressed by his teammates' strong physical fitness, but Xu Qi himself did not work too hard. He was still accumulating the few physical fitness he had. He hoped to use his few physical fitness to do something more useful.

And his physical strength quickly found a place to work.

During the melee, Xu Qi glanced at the right and saw Fernandinho reaching out and grab Genes' ball.

When Fernandinho passed the ball forward, Jocola had already snatched Fernandinho's ball again.

After getting the ball, Jokola didn't look in the penalty area, and wanted to directly shoot a long shot from the outside of the penalty area.

Just as Jokovic pulled up and prepared to shoot, Fernandinho rushed over again and tackled the ball under Jokovic to the middle.

Xu Qi, who had long seen all this, started it quickly and stabbed the ball more than ten meters away in front of Genes!

Then, Xu Qi rushed out at a faster speed!

Because Genes rushed over from another direction, after he found that Xu Qi had already swept the ball and Xu Qi himself had already rushed out, he had no time to chase him back!

The Miners got another excellent counterattack opportunity.

Another trembling sound was made at the scene.

After Xu Qi drove the ball for six or seven meters, he was getting closer and closer to Hadelstone who came in front of him. He did not want to take a risk to break through, but directly passed the ball to Adriano in front of him, and he rushed to the left.

After receiving the ball, Adriano could not turn around well, and William quickly ran from the left to the middle to pick up Adriano.

Judson stepped forward from the right.

Now the positions of the four counterattackers have undergone a wonderful change. Xu Qi comes to the left, while William and Adriano are in the middle, and Judson goes to the right.

Adriano took the ball with his back and gave it back to William.

William looked at the right and then looked at the left. Obviously, Xu Qi's position seemed to be easier to catch the ball.

After William took a few steps forward to attract the opponent's central defender, he directly distributed the ball to Xu Qi on the left side.

Xu Qi, who returned to the left, didn't think too much about it. In this position, his favorite thing was the far corner of the shooting after cutting in.

But William did not pull out to help him run, and Adriano and Judson rushed into the penalty area after seeing Xu Qi take the ball.

Under such circumstances, Xu Qi felt that it was not easy to cut inward when facing Zimbonda, but he still made an inward movement, and he wanted to see Zimbonda's reaction.

Of course, Zimbonda's reaction was very fast. He immediately blocked the line where Xu Qi cut inward, and did not give Xu Qi any possibility of cutting inward.

If William could run to the left to help Xu Qi intersperse at this time, maybe Xu Qi would be able to cut in better, but the situation is different now, so he could only give up the idea of ​​cutting inward and instead accelerate directly to the bottom line.

Zimbonda also changed direction and followed him as soon as possible. Obviously, he would not let Xu Qi pass by himself and make a cross from the bottom.

However, Xu Qi did not want to completely get rid of Zimbonda. All he needed was an empty pass.

When he felt that he could kick the ball, Xu Qi did not drag it out at all and directly kicked the ball.

Of course, he did not use his left foot, which he was not good at, but used the outer instep of his right foot to cross it.

Seeing Xu Qi kicking, Zimbonda immediately stretched out his foot to intercept, but he was still one step slower!

This is the use of the outer instep. The swinging of the leg is faster. If you use your left foot, perhaps the ball will be blocked with his legs, but Xu Qi's outer instep bounced the ball out at an extremely fast speed.

The ball drew an extremely beautiful arc, and a ball spun the ball just bypassed the outskirts of Tottenham defender Chris Gantt and landed at Adriano's feet near the penalty spot.
