Chapter 70: Shooting and Counterattacking

Simeone was delighted that Li Qingshan was able to make a change right away.

Now Li Qingshan's running range is not limited to the penalty area, he began to frequently pull out to catch the ball and pass the ball, he is physically strong, and the football will not be easily broken at his feet. And Chelsea obviously arranged for Terry to keep an eye on Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan is now starting to run back and forth on a large scale, which makes Terry feel very difficult to do - after all, such a large-scale and frequent running interspersed requires physical fitness, and the young Li Qingshan is obviously much better than Terry in terms of physical fitness!

Although Li Qingshan had received football training at the football school, his real football initiation was carried out under the guidance of FC United's coach Marginson.

At the beginning, Marginson would edit the playing methods of some high school forwards for Li Qingshan to learn, which also affected Li Qingshan's football path after that. Until now, Li Qingshan will still watch the way some different types of center forwards play. The current high school forward tactics have declined, but there are still high school strikers who play a pivotal role in football.

For example, the Swedish god Tajbrahimovic, despite the height of the high school striker is 192 centimeters, the way Ibrahimovic scores does not rely on headers.

Ibrahimovic had a classic goal during his time at Ajax, he first used his body to resist the impact of the defender after receiving the ball, and then made a series of smash movements to play the opposing defender over and over again, and even the camera was repeatedly deceived by him, and finally scored with a goal. The goal showcased Ibrahimovic's skill at his feet, which is why Ibrahimovic still holds his place in today's football as a high striker – his tower-like body, his excellent ball control and his excellent physical coordination combine to make him the backbone and command of the team's attack.

Of course, Li Qingshan understands that it is unlikely that he will be able to develop the foot skills of Ibrahimovic, but through Ibrahimovic's performance on the court, he can also be inspired to improve his foot skills and ball handling ability as much as possible, which will become an important part of the offensive system.

And what really makes Li Qingshan yearn for is the way of playing the game of Warcraft Drogba, from the nickname of "Warcraft", you can see how strong Drogba has physical fitness, but at the same time, Drogba also has excellent awareness, and his running position can often tear through the opponent's defense!

For Li Qingshan, if he is just a high school striker, he may also have his own place in world football with his strong body, but if he wants to become the core of a giant team, he must improve his foot skills and running awareness, and be able to keep the team's possession, not just rely on his own header to play the world!

"Atletico's attack was very ferocious at one point, but Chelsea's defence was very tough, and Li Qingshan's repeated headers were deflected by John Terry's defence. Chelsea then had a couple of counter-attacking chances. Then Atletico changed their tactics, they no longer blindly passed the ball in the air, but began to seek more cooperation on the outside of the penalty area, looking for opportunities to score, after all, this is the home of Atletico Madrid, Simeone's team must be hoping to win at home! ”

The commentator analyzes the past ten minutes of the game for the TV audience.

Almost twenty minutes into the first half, Atletico Madrid had the upper hand and Chelsea were in a completely counter-attacking posture.

'Jose Mourinho is on the counter-attacking side and obviously thinks a draw away from home would be a good result!'

Jose Mourinho really doesn't plan to fight hard at the Stadio Calderón and Atletico Madrid – although he and his players are talking about trying to win, even if the team can't win, the result won't be too bad.

As the game progressed, the first half of the game began to enter a relatively quiet "interval", and both sides began to die down a little.

In a game, it is impossible for the team to maintain a rhythm throughout the game, the pace is fast and slow, and it is necessary to launch a reasonable attack in the right area at the right time.

That's the case now, with Atletico Madrid slowing down the tempo and Chelsea not pressing high up.

In the 35th minute, Li Qingshan pulled out of the penalty area to participate in the team's passing organization, and Terry followed directly from the penalty area. Li Qingshan stopped the ball with his right foot, observed his teammate's running position left and right, and then distributed the ball to the left and passed it to the feet of Diego Costa.

After passing the ball, Li Qingshan rushed to the penalty area, and Terry naturally didn't let Li Qingshan's speed rush up - if he was allowed to run and rush to the top, Terry was not sure to stop it.

So he stood directly on Li Qingshan's running line, because Li Qingshan has no ball now, and if he collides directly, it will be an offensive foul, so that Chelsea's defense will be considered successful. And if Li Qingshan bypasses Terry, then the time for his header will pass!

Only this time, Li Qingshan did not continue to rush into the penalty area, but suddenly turned back and retreated to near the penalty area line, opening up a gap.

Diego Costa understood and passed the ball back in the inverted triangle!

This time, Li Qingshan's running position finally succeeded in confusing Terry!

Then Li Qingshan directly swung his calf and pushed with the arch of his foot! Now his ability to shoot with his feet has improved a lot compared to before. The "Shooting Machine", a program he has been training in the soccer camp, has made his shooting ability improve very quickly.

It was a very high quality shot that went through the Chelsea back line and straight into the bottom right corner of the goal!

Li Qingshan stared at the football flying towards the goal with wide eyes, and was already secretly clenching his fists and preparing to celebrate the goal, but soon his vision flashed the figure of Cech falling to the ground to save, the tall and long Cech fell to the ground very quickly, and he used his fingertips to pull the ball out of the bottom line before the ball was about to cross the goal line.

Li Qingshan, who clenched his fists, could only hold his head helplessly, looking at the football that was pounced out with regret.

"Whoa!!!!! Li Qingshan received a pass from Diego Costa on the line of the penalty area, and his shot was infinitely close to the goal! But the ball was saved by a brilliant downed save from Cech! This is the closest the two sides have come to scoring since the start of the game! ”

Atletico Madrid won a corner and the set-piece opportunity was certainly to be taken advantage of.

Godin and Miranda, the two centre-backs, were already running up and ready to take part in the corner. In the face of set-pieces, the defenders around Li Qingshan are not only Terry, David Luiz also sticks to Li Qingshan!

Li Qingshan kept running in the penalty area, and other players of Atletico Madrid also "blocked and dismantled" Li Qingshan, interfering with the defenders' defense of Li Qingshan.

This time, Atletico's corner kick finally allowed Li Qingshan to find space for a header. The corner kick sent by Cork flew to the back of the goal, and Li Qingshan ran around Godin, and when he ran to the back point, Terry and David Luiz, who had been following Li Qingshan, were blocked by Godin's body and failed to come forward in time, allowing Li Qingshan to successfully get rid of them and come to the back point.

Ashley Cole at the back point was completely unable to pose any threat to Li Qingshan when facing Li Qingshan, he easily pressed Ashley Cole to jump, jumped high and smashed the header to the goal!

"Li Qingshan's header!! Here it comes!!! ”

The fans at the scene raised their arms and looked at the goal with bated breath!

Then they let out a 'sigh' – it was Cech again, and he pounced sideways, took the ball off with his palm, and the ball smashed into his arm and bounced off the crossbar before being cleared by Ashley Cole.

The fans at the Calderón Stadium gasped!

Aslicol's clearance fell right at the feet of Willian in front, and the fast Brazilian striker had already turned and dribbled forward at high speed!

'Chelsea's counter-attacking !!!!!!!!!'
