Chapter 38: The weak point of the formation!

Although Tottenham's goal was disallowed, it also alerted Liverpool's defensive players that this is not one of those lower-tier teams in the Premier League that spend most of their time free and don't risk their lives until critical moments.

What they are facing is Tottenham, a strong team that can squeeze into the top four every year and often beats the Premier League giants to shame. They cannot be too relaxed and careless.

After Tottenham pressed the whole game for nearly five minutes, they found that the effect was average, so they slowed down their pace and hibernated to gain momentum while resting.

As soon as Tottenham's pressing rhythm slowed down, Mo Yang was able to escape from the heavy defense, immediately speed up and start organizing the offensive.

In the 18th minute of the game, Liverpool encountered a high-pressure press from Tottenham in the midfield. The ball returned from the wing to the center, and then passed all the way back to Alisson.

Alisson learned his lesson this time and did not dare to play with fire. He started to transfer before Lucas rushed into the penalty area, and the ball came to the feet of Robertson on the left.

Seeing Eriksen rushing over to press again, Robertson was even more decisive, adjusting his posture in advance, pushing the ball to Henderson in the middle.

Henderson stopped the ball, turned around, took a step or two, and continued to move to the right.

Arnold stopped the ball and saw Winks approaching from his left, so he immediately turned to the right and passed the ball forward at a very fast speed.

Up front, Salah dropped back to receive the ball.

But Tottenham left back Danny Rose reacted very quickly and quickly stuck to Salah from behind. He used his hands and feet to push up and down, and continuously tried to hook the ball with his feet, trying to steal or destroy the ball.

But Salah's ball control is also top-notch in the Premier League, but he didn't let Danny Rose succeed.

Just when Salah was prevented from turning around by Danilos, Mo Yang stepped on the sideline and continued to sprint to Salah.

At the same time, Dembeilai and Winks, who had followed Mo Yang back, were also in place and directly surrounded Salah and Mo Yang.

When Danilos saw Mo Yang on the sideline slowing down and continuing to advance, he immediately let go of Salah and retreated, following Mo Yang.

Dembele moved in slightly, closing the center and cutting off the connection between Salah and Firmino behind him.

Winks faced Salah and went up to the ball without saying a word. As a result, Salah passed the ball before the player arrived.

He didn't give it to Mo Yang. After a false shot, he suddenly raised his left foot and pushed the ball to the right.

At the same time, Arnold, who came in from behind, caught the ball.

But Dembe reacted quickly and quickly moved to the right, blocking Arnold's path with the ball.

Arnold deftly diverted the ball to the right and ran towards Mo Yang on the sideline.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded by Danny Rose and Dembe on the sideline, Arnold had no choice but to hand the ball to Mo Yang when passing by Mo Yang, and then continued to advance.

Dembe came to follow Arnold and immediately handed Arnold over to Danny Rose, while he kept an eye on Mo Yang.

But the moment Dembe rushed in front of Mo Yang, Mo Yang, who was standing on the outside line of the right rib area, suddenly made a diagonal pass towards the ball.

The ball jumped past Dembele's left foot, and then rolled past the right foot of Danilos behind Dembele.

Mo Yang's through ball was so unexpected, and the ball was so fast that neither Dembele nor Danny Rose had time to react.

The ball was tilted at a forty-five degree angle and crossed the edge of the penalty area close to the turf.

In front of the upper corner of the small penalty area on the right, Firmino is in place.

But Alderweireld, one of the best central defenders in the Premier League, is not slow either. He is stuck inside.

The moment Firmino met the ball and pushed with his right foot, Alderweireld stretched out his foot and blocked it.

"fool!

!

!

!

!

!

"

Seeing this thrilling scene, more than 60,000 fans screamed in surprise.

"oh!

"Zhan Jun exclaimed in the pp sports live broadcast room.

Zhang Lu shook his head in amazement and said: "Liverpool's offense is so unreasonable sometimes. He won't play too complicated tactics with you. As long as there is the slightest bit of space to pass into the penalty area, his players will immediately

Just run and pass quickly, what’s important is speed!”

"This is the second time!" Zhan Jun nodded, "Moyang intervened from the side again."

"This is the weak point of Tottenham's 442 set. Now it seems that Mo Yang has found it and exploited it!"

Zhang Lu nodded, "Tottenham's diamond-shaped midfielder does not have a full-time full-time midfielder. When Liverpool's full-backs come in and form a winger cooperation with the wingers, plus Mo Yang, the midfielder, Liverpool will

Establish numerical advantage in local areas on the wing.”

"With this diamond-shaped midfielder, he cannot cover the two wings immediately."

"Look at where Dembe came from. He was a central defensive midfielder, but he ended up on the wing. This cost him a lot!" Zhang Lu's analysis captured Pochettino's worries on the field.

.

After Liverpool's attack, Pochettino has determined that Liverpool has seized the weak point of his formation.

Pochettino was very helpless at this time, but that's how football matches are. The two sides compete on the field to see who has smarter players and whose offensive and defensive efficiency will be higher.

Although the weaknesses of the formation have been discovered, what makes Pochettino somewhat relieved is that so far, the four midfielders, Dembele and Dier, have not allowed Liverpool to successfully penetrate once in the middle.

Except for the two attacks on the wing, Pochettino is generally quite satisfied.

"Musa!

!”

"Eric!

!”

"Harry!

!

!”

"Pay attention to protect the side roads!

!

"

"Pay attention to protect the side roads!

!

"

"Keep the ball!

!" Pochettino was preparing to adjust his tactics in the second half, so he stood in the coaching area and shouted on the court.

Next to him, Klopp heard Pochettino's roar. He glanced sideways, grinned and went back to sit on the coaching bench.

This kind of weakness in the formation cannot be solved by on-the-spot command.

Klopp knows that once Tottenham's three midfielders devote their energy to covering the two wings, the center will no longer be as tight as it is now.

With Mo Yang's vision and ability, unless there are no omissions in Tottenham's middle, he will definitely be caught.

Soon, Arnold took a corner kick and looked directly for Mo Yang from behind.

But Tottenham were obviously wary of Mo Yang's bounce, as three people surrounded him.

Seeing the ball fall, the moment Mo Yang took off, he felt two hands suddenly grab the jersey on his back and forcefully pulled him off, leaving him to watch the ball being cleared by Eric Dier in front of him.

Exit the restricted area.

Soon, Arnold took a second corner kick, but this time it was too close to the goal, and Tottenham goalkeeper Vorm took it off with both hands.

After Tottenham got the ball, they started to control the ball and played more cautiously.

Their main line of attack was on the right side, obviously wanting to avoid Mo Yang's side and focus on Gomez's side, who replaced Van Dijk.

In the 26th minute of the game, on the right side of Tottenham's half-time circle, Dembele, Winks, and Dier were surrounded by four Liverpool players.

But the three players kicked the ball in succession, allowing the ball to be transferred without any danger.

The first time Dell got the ball, he quickly passed forward to Eriksson who was retreating.

Gomez, who was behind Eriksen, saw that Eriksen had no intention of turning around after receiving the ball, so he turned around and ran back, which was very smart.

Robertson was also very alert. As soon as Gomez ran away, he also slipped away, quickly returned to the wing, and directly stared at Kane on the edge.

At this moment, Eriksen knocked back Dell who had passed the ball and inserted it.

Dier quickly passed forward to Kane.

Kane stopped the ball, just enough for Robertson to block it on the sideline.

Seeing the alert retreat of Gomez and Robertson, Zhang Lu said with emotion: "Gomez, Robertson, and Alexander-Arnold, these young Liverpool players, have grown up so fast!"

"Yes, since the start of this season, Liverpool, which was once the worst defensive club in the Premier League, is now the best defensive team in the Premier League. This is absolutely inseparable from these people." Zhan Jun answered at the right time.

On the court, Kane and Robertson were in a stalemate.

Seeing that Liverpool was about to return to defense, Kane suddenly pushed the ball under Robertson's crotch with his right foot and quickly tried to force his way through from the left.

As a result, the ball passed by, but Robertson closed his foot and blocked the ball out of the sideline.

Seeing Robertson's precise defense this time, the Red Army fans at the scene gave warm applause to Liverpool's famous desperate Saburo. Your latest reading progress detected is "Chapter 13: Fixed-point blasting was successful!"
