Bianliang Time Moon Chapter 454: Midfield Competition
As the link between the past and the future and the core of the offensive and defensive transition, whether the midfielder can perform well directly determines the team's offensive threat and defensive strength. In modern football, the main area of activity for midfielders is still in the penalty area and
According to the different types of positions between the opponent's penalty areas, we can roughly divide them into: offensive midfielders, defensive midfielders and b2b midfielders. Their playing methods and styles on the field are also slightly different.
The most important role of the offensive midfielder on the field is to improve the team's overall offensive ability. As the most effective helper behind the strikers, in today's world football, the best offensive midfielder is Manchester City's De Bruyne.
Inside, if you want to play this position well, you first need to have a top-notch overall view and super observation ability. You can see the position of the offensive player as soon as you get the ball, and use sharp passes to directly tear apart the opponent.
Line of defense.
Moreover, when the team does not have very good offensive opportunities, the offensive midfielder also needs to constantly change the opponent's defensive position through long-pass scheduling. Only when the opponent's defense line is in the process of constant change, gaps may appear.
Or when the marking is not tight, in addition to organizing the team's offense, the offensive midfielder also needs to have excellent finishing ability, and a powerful and heavy long-range shot is a necessary personal ability.
Different from the responsibilities of the offensive midfielder on the field, the defensive midfielder needs to be the last barrier in front of the team's defense. The most well-known among fans is the Chelsea midfielder Kante in his peak period. He wants to become a
What a top defensive midfielder must have is excellent personal defense ability, the ability to personally defend the opponent's most threatening player on the court, and constantly reduce the opponent's core offensive threat through reasonable physical confrontation and active fighting. In addition,
In addition, you also need to have excellent awareness of assisting defense and be able to make up for the holes in the team's defensive end.
In addition, defensive midfielders often need to have a certain ability to play the ball. They can complete the offensive and defensive transition as soon as the team completes the defense, put the football at the feet of the offensive player, and take advantage of the opponent's unsteady foothold.
, catching the opponent off guard, so as to maximize the team's offensive threat.
The b2b midfielder is often referred to as an all-round midfielder. They need to have the ability of both offensive and defensive midfielders on the court. Manchester City's core midfielder Yaya Toure was a typical b2b midfielder. He wanted to become a
The most basic quality of a top b2b midfielder is to have super running ability. On the field, he can cover all positions between the two penalty areas. On the defensive end, he needs to help the back line complete the defense, and when the team attacks,
He can also sort out the team's offense and has certain finishing abilities.
In addition, one of the abilities that b2b midfielders need most is the ability to dribble the ball deep. After the team completes a successful defense, he can dribble the ball towards the opponent's penalty area at high speed, or complete the attack by himself, or attract the opponent's penalty area.
After the defensive attention is paid, the ball will be released to other offensive players as soon as possible.
In addition, the midfield area is very broad, and there are also attacking midfielders and defensive midfielders in terms of position.
The requirements of the defensive midfielder. This is a solid barrier before the opponent's players enter the penalty area. The defensive midfielder must have outstanding physical strength and positional sense to destroy the opponent's offensive attempts before the opponent's offensive danger is formed. A defensive midfielder with comprehensive capabilities
Field players can connect the team from defense to offense. When attacking, they can press forward in a timely manner and use their good physical condition to create certain opportunities.
Requirements of the attacking midfielder. The attacking midfielder is often the midfield commander of a team and the metronome of the team's offense and defense. It should be said that players in this position should have extremely fast breakthrough speed and overall view, and must have excellent footwork.
And a broad field of vision. A good attacking midfielder is indispensable for passing and controlling the ball, and free kicks are an essential weapon for the attacking midfielder.
Having said that, let’s take a look at today’s game at the Bird’s Nest Stadium. In the second game of the second round of the New Cuju Competition, the Lions played against the Wenyuan team. In fact, judging from the formation of the two teams,
It is already known that whether it is Cao You or Han Wenyuan, they have focused on the midfield area. Of course, there is no need to say more about the Wenyuan team. Except for Xu Chang, the other two players in the core trio are at the forward position.
In terms of position, this is also the way the Wenyuan team has always played. Xu Chang, as the core midfielder, is responsible for organizing offense and passing the ball, while the main offensive tasks are given to their two forwards. On the commentary table
Wang Da and Wang Yi also said that maybe the comprehensive strength of the two strikers of the Wenyuan team is not that strong, but when it comes to the changes in cooperation with Xuchang and offensive routines, the explosive ability of the three of them is
Much stronger than Wang Da and Wang Yi.
Therefore, the core point of the core trio is actually Xu Chang, and those two are just completing their own tasks.
Cao You naturally knew this. He knew that the focus of the core trio was on Xuchang. For this game, the 442 formation sent by Han Wenyuan also launched an attack around Xuchang. Therefore, Cao You
Yu adopted a very targeted strategy, which was to use a 352 formation, using two midfielders to limit Xuchang's organizational ability and at the same time strengthen the defense on the back line. However, there were only three parallel defenders in the backcourt.
Whether it can block the attack of those two people, even Lu Yao has some doubts in his mind. Of course, the changes Cao Yu adopted were not only in changing the formation, Cao Yu also made changes to the players on the field.
Liu Wei, who used to be a substitute and basically had the opportunity to play in the second half, appeared on the starting list in this game, and his position is also a midfielder. Obviously, this
Cao You was specially sent to guard Xu Chang. The game has reached this stage. Everyone's understanding of Cuju has begun to deepen. They all know that using such a bold substitution strategy in such a critical game must be
We have high hopes for this person, and he will be a surprise player. Since he appears in the midfield position, it means that Cao You also realizes where the core threat point of the Wenyuan team is. However, can Liu Wei limit Xuchang's offense?
, is another major point that needs attention in this game.
The Wenyuan team got the opportunity to take the initiative in the first half. It is said that this was also requested by Han Wenyuan and the others, but Cao You did not protest. It seems that both sides felt that this choice was acceptable. For the Wenyuan team
It is self-evident that gaining the right to attack first is of great benefit to them. Xuchang can organize the attack quickly and may be able to score first before the opponent has a firm foothold.
However, this matter must be within Cao You's calculations, as can be seen from everyone's positions at the beginning. Although the formation given at the beginning was a 352 diamond midfield formation, with two double midfielders
, but when the players are now standing on the court, the two defensive midfielders of the Lions also begin to walk towards the wing, and finally settle down, which seems to have become a 352 parallel midfield formation.
.
The 352 parallel position formation has a very high coverage rate for the midfield. At the same time, the presence of the two wide midfielders can effectively ensure the impact of the wing during offense, and the two wide midfielders can also quickly return when defending.
Go to the back line and become two full-backs.
The lineup has very strict requirements on the ability of the two full-backs. When attacking, the two full-backs must not only quickly set up crosses or small-scale cooperation for the two forwards in the penalty area, but also must quickly drop down in defense.
Move to the back line to form two full-backs.
At the same time, the 352 parallel position formation will also expose a very huge gap in the middle when defending. When all three central midfielders press forward to the top of the opponent's penalty area, their own midfielder will expose a very huge gap. At this time
If the opposing player successfully intercepts the ball, he will face an almost empty midfield. If the opponent sets up a heavy defense in the middle for the 352 formation, the advantage of the 352 midfield attack will be completely unable to be used.
The current position of the Lions is because they have to be at the defensive end of the opening, and their parallel positions are in their own half, which can form an effective defense line. In fact, except for Zou Kai and Chen Feng, all other Lions
The Lions players all defended in their own half of the court, and after the offensive power was transferred to their own side, they would change their formation and change into a diamond position to defend the opponent's fast break.
"It seems that Cao You has made a lot of preparations for this game." As Lu Yao said, he couldn't help but admire Cao You. You know, for Cao You, there are so many things to worry about during this period.
It's not just today's game. The outcome of this game is important, but for Cao You, there are more important things that require him to pay attention to, and that is his sister Cao Han's marriage, which was yesterday's competition to recruit a bride.
Contest.
Even Lu Yao directly asked his mother Yan to take charge of all wedding preparations for the Han family because of this incident, including the martial arts school, some of his other businesses, and the review for the palace examination. During this period, Lu Yao
He didn't have time to take care of it. He was basically busy practicing kung fu all day long, just to win yesterday's martial arts competition.
But looking back at Cao You, it can be said that he perfectly combines work and life. He can not only handle the internal affairs of the Cao family, but also train his team without falling behind. This person is really amazing.
To be honest, even Lu Yao is a little lucky now that Cao Yu is not his enemy.
In fact, apart from the teams of Cao You and Han Wenyuan, even the referee trio Bao Zheng, Zhan Zhao and Gongsun Ce are not idle these days. They focused on their performance in previous airport games.
They also made a summary, and wanted to make certain changes to some rules, such as the scale of physical contact and the penalty standards for flagrant fouls. Of course, they still used the rules Lu Yao had given them before.
As a guideline to set the scale of penalties, and every time you want to make some changes, it can't just be something that the three of them have agreed upon. Every time you want to make adjustments to these details,
They would all go to Zhe Kexing to discuss this. Regarding this, Lu Yao was very relieved that his friend would help the referee trio make certain adjustments. After all, Zhe Kexing had failed every game since the start of the new Cuju competition until now.
Not once was left behind, everyone was present. While watching the game, maybe after watching a game, Katsuyuki Zhe could find more problems and improvements in the details of the game than Lu Yao, who paid more attention to the game itself. So,
, with the help of Zhe Kexing, there should be no problems in terms of penalty.
In the viewing area, Lu Yao looked up at the weather. It must be said that today is a good weather for the competition.
Taking modern football as an example, the optimal temperature for tropical football is between 25c and 28c, for temperate zone football between 17c and 20c, and for subtropical football between the two. Temperature will affect the coach's tactical arrangements. Generally, in hot weather, athletes should exercise more control ball, reducing high-intensity running; while at low temperatures, players need to keep running to reach the required temperature of the body. However, if the temperature is too high or too low, it is very detrimental to the football game. In hot weather, athletes' body temperatures will remain constant during running. rises to about 40C. Due to the high ambient temperature, heat can only be dissipated through sweating. If the amount of sweat reaches 1-5% of the body weight, the athlete's maximum oxygen absorption and muscle working capacity will decrease by 30-50%. If not If you replenish water in time, heat stroke and fainting will occur. In addition, in order to dissipate heat, a large amount of blood flows to the surface of the human body, making the person's face flushed, and the skin is also filled with blood. In this way, the central circulation of blood is reduced, resulting in central nervous system fatigue and poor muscle activity. At the same time, too much sodium chloride, calcium, potassium, magnesium and other elements excreted with sweat can easily cause cramps. Therefore, in hot summer, it is best to wait until after 5 o'clock in the afternoon before playing football without sunlight. Strong exposure will make people feel more relaxed while playing football.
In addition to high temperatures, excessive humidity brings greater trouble to football players.
The relative humidity suitable for general sports is between 50% and 60%. Humidity will affect perspiration, body heat dissipation, and the metabolic process of human body water and salt. Under normal temperature conditions, the greater the humidity, the greater the oxygen demand and perspiration volume. The larger the humidity, the more disadvantageous it will be for long-distance running and football. In football, players rely on inhaling oxygen to maintain cerebral cortex movement, but the humidity is too high. During the breathing process, water vapor and oxygen enter the players' bodies together, which makes the inhalation of oxygen
It cannot enter the circulatory system well, causing athletes to suffer from hypoxia, difficulty breathing and a decrease in physical strength.
Football fields are open and flat, usually open or semi-open. Strong winds can easily enter, and the flowing air quickly rubs against the ground, generating a lot of charges. When thunderstorms come, the clouds above often also carry a lot of charges. , a huge capacitor is formed between the clouds and the ground, which is prone to lightning strikes. In addition, when the players are in motion on the court, there is a step voltage between the feet, causing the lightning current to pass through the legs and lower part of the torso, and the players are easily struck. Lightning strike injury.
Be sure not to play football outdoors during thunderstorms. If you hear thunder while playing football, you can squat down to lower your height and put your feet together to reduce the harm caused by step voltage. It is best to pause the game. or training.
In a game on a rainy day, due to the resistance of the water, the direction, speed, and landing point of the football are very different from those on sunny days. Some shots will undoubtedly go in under normal weather, but due to the resistance of the rain, the speed of the ball drops sharply and it is easy for the opponent to save it. However, the surface of the "water polo" is slippery, and the goalkeeper can easily lose his hand when making a save, which creates an opportunity for the attacking team members who come quickly to make a follow-up shot. In addition, when playing football in the rain, the chances of injuries to muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones are doubled. Increase. It is more common for athletes to suffer from respiratory diseases and high fever after games. It is best not to play football in cold winter or snowy days. If you must play, you must be fully prepared before the game and pay attention during the game. Control your movements to avoid injuries. Athletes' running ability and shooting power are significantly weakened under low air pressure. Low pressure can also lead to a decrease in oxygen in the human body, and players are prone to hypoxia, chest tightness, dizziness and other symptoms.
In May 2007, FIFA announced a ban on international football matches and World Cup football qualifiers being held at altitudes higher than 3,000 meters, considering the health of players and the unfairness of competition venues favoring teams from high-altitude areas.
As the altitude increases, the air pressure decreases regularly due to the gradually thinning of the air. Generally, the oxygen content in the air decreases by about 10% for every 1,000 meters of elevation. Playing in such an environment will affect the running ability of athletes.
However, since the 1930s, many countries have chosen to train in places with low oxygen levels at high altitudes. Western scientists have also created the hilo plateau simulation training method, which is hypobaric oxygen chamber training. In this way, they can enhance the antioxidant capacity of skeletal muscles.
This kind of training has become very common in European football.
The weather at the Bird's Nest Stadium today is quite good, the sun is shining brightly, and there won't be any rain for a while. This kind of weather is very good for the players on both sides, allowing them to display their full strength.
As for the direction of the wind, Chen Chen and Pan Wen, who already have a deep understanding of Cuju, have also felt it.
"Today's wind direction, at least for now, is favorable to the Wenyuan team."
"Well, I don't know what that guy Cao Yu is thinking. He has lost the right to attack first and has no advantage in the direction of the wind."
Pan Wen really couldn't understand the reason for Cao Yu's choice.
"Perhaps in Cao You's view, this lighting will affect his performance more." Lu Yao gave an explanation, "There should be no problem with the current lighting and the direction of the light, but Han Wenyuan's
The team members on the side have to face a high-temperature combat situation."
"I see, in the second half, Cao You will not suffer a loss. It seems that he wants to gain a physical advantage." Chen Chen said.
Now both the Wenyuan team and the Lions team are composed of fifteen players, and each team is given three substitutions in each game. Although it is neither more nor less, but if you want to play in such a long game,
It is still very difficult to maintain sufficient physical strength. Cao You is such a shrewd person, and Lu Yao does not believe that he does not know that the wind direction of today's game will be in favor of Han Wenyuan. This is what he just chose
It should have been known which side was going to attack first. However, even so, Cao You still chose the direction of Shunguang in the end. It seems that the reason is that Cao You was very confident in defending Han Wenyuan's first wave of attacks.
As for the factors of tailwind and headwind, in fact, before the official game started, in the warm-up match at the Palace Training Ground, which was the first game between the Wenyuan team and the Lions, the Lions had already passed this
The tailwind factor has gained some advantages, and he has directly scored goals. Therefore, Cao You should be well aware of the impact the wind direction will have on the players, so this is not a problem for the Lions.
What impact will it have.
Speaking of warm-up matches, before the official start of the New Cuju Competition, there were two warm-up matches. The most exciting one was probably the match between the Lions and the Wenyuan team. At that time, Han Yonghe and Cao Guosu
It was still a state of incompatibility. And because that game was not a formal game, the result of the game could also be a draw, so the final result of the duel between the two sides also ended in a draw. However, none of the spectators present today had seen it.
In that warm-up match, of course, none of the three commentators mentioned the previous incident. But even if they didn't mention it, at least before today, the people knew that the Cao family and the Han family were not on good terms, so they had no idea about today's incident.
This game is still very much looking forward to.
The cheers and cheers from both sides came one after another. Unlike the previous teams of Chen Chen and Pan Wen, it goes without saying that the Cao family and the Han family have connections in the court. They also have many friends in Bianliang City.
Therefore, the vast majority of the audience came to clearly express their support for one of the teams today.
This is also the game with the most lively atmosphere and the loudest cheers since the official competition of the New Cuju Competition.
At this time, inside the palace.
In the morning meeting that just ended, Zhao Zhen specifically asked about the game between the Lions and Wenyuan. Originally, he wanted to see what Han Yonghe and Cao Guojiu would do on the stage with the intention of watching the fun.
He said some cruel words, but he didn't expect that the two people were shaking hands and making peace. After careful questioning, Zhao Zhen also knew that it was because of the martial arts competition held by the Cao family yesterday. Zhao Zhen did not expect that,
Lu Yao also studied martial arts. Regarding the final marriage arrangement of the Cao family, the Han family and the Lu family, Zhao Zhen also expressed his agreement. Without thinking too much, he knew that this idea must be Lu Yao's. And he cared more about it.
What's interesting is that Lu Yao has now shown some military and kung fu abilities.
