From God's perspective, countless red lines spread crazily.
It has been a long, long time since I have deconstructed the opponent's defense in a national team game.
Because it is generally not used.
Is there any way to directly break through Croatia's midfield barrier using the 'existing resources' at our disposal?
The other side.
Modric is also looking at Spain's midfield and backfield.
He and Li Kang were thinking about the same thing.
...
The 78th minute of the game.
"Pique made a mistake on his long pass."
"Mandzukic's pressing worked."
"Barcelona's central defender sent a kick."
Near the center circle, Li Kang was preparing to lift his foot to unload the ball.
In an instant.
The red line from God's perspective wildly entangled the structure of Croatia's midfield.
There is no answer.
But the solution to the problem became clearer.
...
Rakitic is closing in quickly.
David Silva saw that the situation was not going well and stepped forward to respond.
Modric stamped on the turf, instantly accelerated and changed direction, preparing to stretch his foot to intercept the short pass between the two Spanish midfielders.
An impeccable kill starter.
pity.
If he was slow to react and stupid like Calhanoglu, Croatia might have successfully prevented the opponent's transition attack.
...
next moment.
St. Petersburg suddenly burst into applause.
I saw that Li Kang's movement tendency was to unload the ball and pass it to David Silva.
The moment the football hits the ground.
Stop on the outside of your left foot.
Trajectory deviation.
The local space where David Silva and Modric are about to play has completely failed.
Rakitic, who was bullying him, was also stuck in a blind spot in his field of vision by Li Kang's body.
Li Kang just turned around and started dribbling the ball.
"It's so imaginative."
"The unpredictable stop and deflection of the ball instantly resolved the upcoming midfield stranglehold."
"Grandmaster!"
"The true master!"
“That’s also a huge advantage in terms of radius control and ankle strength.”
"Looking at the five major European leagues, only Pogba and Li Kang have such top talents."
"Modric and Rakitic fought hard to chase back."
"Li Kang speeds up and leads to the left!"
...
Intermittent high-intensity and continuous high-intensity exert different effects on players' physical energy.
The Croatian team quickly returned to defense.
The reason why Li Kang went to the wing was because his midfield teammates couldn't keep up for a while.
Facing Croatia's five-man ladder defense in retreat.
Morata used all his strength and ran on the right.
It's like there's a connection between hearts.
In Nizu Shenfeng's field of vision, a phantom with golden curly hair continued to appear.
Two against five.
Although the goal is often left empty-handed, there is no line of defense on this planet that would make Morata fearful.
When you are strong, be strong.
...
"Spain's chance of attacking this time was a bit slim. Croatia worked too hard, and the overall defense line's coordinated retreat was also perfect."
"The other teammates couldn't keep up with Li Kang's rhythm for a while."
"Lovren looked back and observed Morata's movement."
"Li Kang dribbled the ball to the left side of the penalty area. There were two Croatian defensive players beside him. He continued to dribble toward the baseline."
"Morata accelerates twice and cuts diagonally into the middle!"
"I was discovered by Lovren, so I quickly adjusted my defensive direction and blocked the front point."
"Vida also cut off the contact between Li Kang and Morata."
"No chance..."
"Wow!"
"Morata kicked the ground and ran back!"
"It's too late for Lovren to look back now!"
"Or is Morata just taking advantage of Lovren's chance to turn around?"
Morata appeared in the perfect back-point position at the perfect time.
Li Kang was in close combat with three Eastern European men and sent out a diagonal pass.
The weird micro-arc trajectory made Croatia goalkeeper Subasic unable to stop.
Later point.
Morata lifted his foot slightly.
The football hit the post and rolled into the net.
The emotions of all the audience were on a roller coaster at the last moment.
At this moment, Bosque finally lowered his fat hand covering his heart.
2:0!!!
Morata was so excited that he punched in the air to celebrate, then rushed towards Li Kang and hugged him vigorously: "Li, I knew you would pass the ball over!"
The assists and finishes between the two finally became normal again.
....
"Legendary Connection!"
"One more city!"
"The combination of Li Kang and Morata created this goal!"
"One breaks out of space."
"One ran out of the end."
"The defense line of the Grid Army was like a thin layer of paper facing the two sharp blades."
"The launch of this attack...well, it was instigated by Pique!"
"The Matador fleet has half a foot on the stage of the World Cup finals... There is not much time left for the Croatians."
Studio.
The whole process of scoring was replayed on the big screen.
-[Digging, Pique has made a contribution! A few blind long passes allowed Li Mingdeng to stop the ball with the outside of his foot and deceive Modric and Rakitic!]
-[The trajectory of stopping the ball and unloading the force is so amazing, it directly allows Spain to advance, skipping a layer of "strangulation and fighting". I saw the 20-year-old midfield master with my own eyes.]
-[Throw aside your brain, in terms of control radius and ankle strength, Li Kang and Pogba are the only ones in history.]
-[If Pogba were here, he would continue to compete with Modric, and he could play 14 matchups in a game...]
-[Croatia's midfield and frontcourt are very strong, but the backline is still mediocre. The defensive flaws are all made up by the running of the midfield. Spain finally grasped an opportunity to tear down their midfield barrier.]
-[This move was an arc and a diagonal pass. I thought it was De Bruyne who kicked it.]
- [Morata's running position is amazing, his speed is also fast, and his awareness of reading the defense is also amazing. If he improves his shooting skills...]
....
Sideline.
Del Bosque finally started celebrating.
Mignano shouted: "The final, the final stage is waiting for us!"
The other side.
Dalic looked back on the process of losing the ball just now and couldn't help but be stunned.
correct.
His players made no mistakes and all defensive tendencies were reasonable.
However, the No. 6 midfielder opposite is too strong...
....
Modric looked up at the LED scoreboard in mid-air.
Not discouraged.
The Croatians regained their passionate fighting spirit.
This group of players who have experienced the baptism of fire may have the toughest souls in the World Cup.
The game resumes.
The grid army launched a more concise onslaught.
Even if they are two goals behind, even if there is little time left, they will use their last strength to rewrite the ending.
Spain's defense line is crumbling.
Except for Li Kang and Saul and Koke who came on the bench, other Matador players have been tortured to the point of "peeling" in high-intensity games.
Action deformation.
The offensive and defensive ideas are not unified.
At the St. Petersburg Stadium at this moment, some people feel that time passes very slowly, while others feel that time passes very fast.
...
The final moments of the game.
Modric defused Spain's attack in his own half.
The instigated counterattack long pass has not yet flown through the center circle.
