"Vardy struggled a lot today."

Alan Shearer said in the Sky Sports studio.

As a forward, Alan Shearer has high expectations for Vardy, a late-blooming young England junior.

From a semi-amateur player to the Bundesliga Golden Boot, this process is really inspiring.

But Alan Shearer doesn't just admire Vardy for this.

He believes that Vardy has all the factors to love football, his aggression, his fighting spirit, and his contribution to the team, making him a better forward.

If the team falls behind, Vardy will desperately try to equalize the score, and will also frantically chase his defender's big-footed clearance.

Vardy is the kind of player who can turn a hopeless ball into an opportunity and score a goal. He is also the kind of player who can inspire all players to reach their potential.

Shearer even believes that the England national team should let Vardy play as the main center, so that they will not be eliminated at the bottom of the group in the 2014 World Cup.

Of course, Shearer can also see Vardy's shortcomings.

Due to his speed and excellent first-touch ability, Vardy thrives in teams that play defensive counterattacks.

But if the team starts to press forward and attack, his threat will be greatly reduced after his space for movement is restricted.

Moreover, a pure shooter like Vardy is extremely dependent on the team's tactics and the assist ability of his teammates. When Chelsea controls the ball today, it will be difficult for Leicester City's teammates to feed Vardy decently.

of cake.

As a result, Vardy naturally cannot use his personal breakthrough and passing abilities to create more opportunities like Neymar and Messi.

"Yes, Chelsea did a very good job defending Vardy today. Pan Yi still knows his former subordinate too well." Carragher also said.

Reinker shook his head and said: "But who would have thought that Pan Yi would dare to put on the field such young central defenders as Ake and Zouma, and also complete the defensive task outstandingly?"

Indeed.

Among Pan Yi's three central defenders today, veteran captain Terry is in the middle to dispatch, and the task of marking people is given to Ake and Zuma on both sides.

These two central defenders have their own characteristics.

Ake plays on the left and is a left-footed player. In fact, in addition to playing as a central defender, he can also play as a left back and defensive midfielder. He is an out-and-out all-rounder in the backcourt.

As we all know, Pan Yi's requirements for defenders are not only to be able to defend, but also to have the ability to initiate offense.

Ake has good foot skills and strong passing ability, which fully meets Pan Yi's needs.

Ake can often complete beautiful ball control movements at his feet in games. He has good flexibility and technical ability, and also has a good through ball and long pass.

Even after pressing forward to the opponent's 30-meter area, Ake also has a certain starting point for the attack.

His sudden dribbling of the ball and then distribution to the wing was also of great help to Pan Yi's team.

On defense, Ake is agile and has strong shooting ability. He has obvious advantages in interception and blocking.

Moreover, his turning speed is fast, so he has the ability to flexibly turn around to protect his back when defending from the front. If opponents want to attack Ake one-on-one, they will often be blocked or destroyed by his successful tackle.

Another very good advantage of Ake is that he has good predictability. He has a strong sense of crisis during the game and will often move to a key position in advance to complete clearances and block shots.

Therefore, when Ake was sent to defend Vardy, who lacked space to counterattack, he naturally seemed to be able to do it with ease.

Of course, his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, his height of 180cm is not particularly tall, and he is not able to defend headers well in his own penalty area.

And this requires another central defender Zuma to make up for it.

Zuma is a heavy-duty truck with a height of 191cm and a weight of 96kg!

He is also a representative figure of the "black and tough" defender. His extremely talented physical condition makes him a natural center defender.

Because of his height of over 1.9 meters, Zouma can help Chelsea through the air on both offense and defense.

At the same time, he is a "rushing" central defender who likes physical confrontation and relies on talent for defense.

Due to his excellent physical fitness, Zuma is never afraid of physical confrontation.

In the process of grabbing the ball, he usually uses physical contact to interfere with the attacking team's kicking rhythm, trying not to leave the opponent any space and time to think. After seeing the right time, he will directly come out from behind to cut off the opponent's kicking rhythm.

Pass the ball or stretch out your long legs to directly destroy the ball.

From a visual point of view, the "up-rushing" defense looks more lethal than the "fight and retreat" retreating defense, and will also make some forwards intimidated.

However, this kind of defensive strategy, which is a bit gambling, is also very easy to be deceived when you meet some cunning "experiencers" in football.

Some smart players don't give you the opportunity for physical contact at all. They often "borrow their strength" and use their cleverness to defuse the defensive players' advances. The final result is basically that the defensive players miss the ball and are counterattacked by the opponent.<

/p>

However, good prediction and excellent blocking position, aren't these the defensive characteristics of Ake?

Therefore, these two young central defenders form an effective complementarity.

Of course, even though Zuma is tall, he is not very bulky.

He is tall, has long legs and has long steps, so he actually has better chasing ability.

Sometimes if he really can't catch up, he will choose to throw his body out and use tackles to increase the defensive coverage area. The effect is equally good.

Another characteristic of Zuma is that he has very good long-passing ability. This is of course also a basic requirement for Pan Yi to choose a central defender, and it is also in line with the development trend of today's football.

Needless to say, the advantages of the central defender Terry are that he is a typical English central defender, with strong defense, tough style, high concentration in the game, and a well-deserved spiritual leader on the field.

With the experienced Terry sitting in the middle to command these two young boys, Chelsea's defense is simply impregnable!

Vardy, whose technical characteristics are relatively simple, naturally seems a little helpless when encountering such a defense that can help each other to achieve a perfect balance, coupled with Pan Yi's special care.

"Chelsea's defense did not give Leicester City any chance, and their offense was even more ferocious." Royin Keane also added, "The game has only lasted less than thirty minutes, and Chelsea has already

Nearly all the shots were taken."

Leicester City put up a posture of attacking Chelsea in the first ten minutes, but were quickly suppressed.

Ten minutes later, Chelsea was almost overwhelming Leicester City.

It can be said that this seemingly "evenly matched" contest soon entered a regular pattern of a strong team attacking on one side and defending on the other side beating a weak team.

"This was achieved when half of the main players were youth training players!" Chelsea star Zola said with joy, "It seems that Boss Abramovich made the right decision to find Pan Yi as the head coach. Pan Yi not only

You can only use the famous stars in the team to play beautiful football, but you can also promote young players and trust young players! He deserves the highest salary in the world!"

"We are only leading by one goal, and you are boasting like this. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if we lose later?" Gary Neville rolled his eyes at Zola, "A football match is a 90-minute sport..."

"But now..." Carragher was obviously siding with Zola to criticize Neville. He pointed at the big screen, "If Pearson doesn't make adjustments as soon as possible, Leicester City will definitely lose again."

Ball."

On the current court, Chelsea had just completed another long-range shot. Loftus-Cheek's powerful shot was blocked by Leicester City goalkeeper Schmeichel and took a corner kick.

Now Chelsea will have a good shot almost every two or three minutes. You can imagine how crazy their offense is now.

After about 20 minutes of testing and running-in, and after Willian scored a goal, the energy of Chelsea's young players seemed to be completely released. Each of them kicked with wind at their feet.

All the strength of the whole body is used on Leicester City.

Hazard quickly ran to the corner kick and took the corner kick for Chelsea.

Several of Chelsea's high points basically entered the penalty area. This was also Chelsea's fourth corner kick in the game.

This time, after Hazard sent the ball quickly, no teammate was able to catch it, and Morgan made a header to clear the ball.

Leicester City quickly counterattacked and moved the ball in front to Vardy, but at the critical moment, Zouma made a tactical foul and decisively brought Vardy to the ground.

Although Zouma received a yellow card for this, it also ruined a seemingly good counterattack opportunity for Leicester City.

A burst of applause immediately erupted in the Stamford Bridge stadium, which was dedicated by Chelsea fans to their youth academy player Zouma.

This 19-year-old youngster looked very mature in this defense, and his kicks were fast and hard. He deserves encouragement!

Leicester City took a free kick and continued to attack Chelsea's hinterland, but Chelsea's defensive position was already in place, and the attack was in vain.

"See, Leicester City's every attack cannot pose a threat, but Chelsea is different. If Schmeichel hadn't played well, I'm afraid Leicester City's goal would have been penetrated again." Look.

After this attack and defense, Carragher continued.

Young Schmeichel's name is Kasper Schmeichel, and he is only slightly famous now.

And he was first known because of his father, Peter Schmeichel, also known as Schmeichel.

That's a god-like figure!

Schmeichel has won 5 English Premier League championships, 3 Danish Football League championships, 1 UEFA Champions League championship, 3 English FA Cup championships and many other honors at the club, and in 1999

Help Manchester United win the Triple Crown this season.

At a personal level, he was elected iffhs World Goalkeeper of the Year twice, European Goalkeeper of the Year three times, UEFA Club Goalkeeper of the Year once, and Danish Footballer of the Year three times.

Of course, his greatest achievement was helping the Danish national team win the 1992 European Cup in Sweden, creating the most surprising "Danish fairy tale" in the history of world football.

At the same time, Schmeichel played a total of 129 times on behalf of the Danish national men's football team, making him the player with the most appearances in the history of the Danish national team. He also maintained his personal record of 470 minutes without conceding a goal for the Danish national team for 23 years.
