824 The Marshal and the Maniac

Thank you for the tips of "arvinwang", "thief dead" and "Qingqing little wolf"! ――

In eight years, Aldrich has created a great reputation, and when it comes to young marshals in football circles around the world, nine out of ten people will think of Aldrich, who is like a demon knife born out of thin air, and there are countless souls under the knife, which makes him awe-inspiring.

Therefore, when he fights with his peers, many people will show him a faint respect and envy.

And when he met Bielsa on the sidelines today, Aldridge didn't feel the kind of affection that most people would have, respect, apprehension, anticipation, or trying to learn from Aldridge, or even cutting off Aldrich's ambitions.

Bielsa's spirited and sharp spirit made Aldridge have a sense of a long memory coming to mind.

Be on one's high horse!

Well, that's how it feels.

Bielsa is not afraid of Aldridge at all, one is in South America, the other is in Europe, the young marshal is famous all over the world, even if he has twice beheaded the well-known governor of Argentina, Bielsa is still unscrupulous.

It would be unfair to expect Aldridge's achievements at the club, because he has recruited talents from various countries, and his cards are already better than others.

And when it comes to the national team level, the two play each other, why is Bielsa afraid?

Besides, he was a madman, a madman.

And he is still convinced that Argentina is merging Menottiism and Biraldo in his hands to form a new school of thought, a football philosophy called Bielsaism. The dominance of the South American budget is just the beginning. The World Cup is the end!

Bielsa shook hands with Aldridge and turned away. Striding meteor, looking in high spirits.

Aldridge, on the other hand, was significantly younger, but slightly cramped, with light body movements, and slowly walked back to the coach's box, Bielsa was wearing sportswear, Aldridge was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and it looked like Bielsa belonged to football. Aldrich should be summed up in fashion.

"England, Argentina, finally, finally met! Did you look forward to this moment from the moment the draw was announced, or did it start in France four years ago? ”

'Andy, I think Simeone is right when he says that England and Argentina, whenever they meet, it's going to be an exciting game. Today, we are going to witness such a game full of stories and grievances. Gary, are you bullish on England? Are you still sorry for the header back then? ”

Lineker laughed, his lifelong regret may be the moment when his header against Argentina before the end of the '86 World Cup.

"Of course I support England, in the past, just support, unconditional support, it was instinct, but now, reason tells me that England can win because the win over Sweden told all the England fans, England is stronger than we thought, is Argentina good? Maybe, but in their match against Nigeria, apart from the result, I don't see the strength of Argentina, they don't even have a pitiful number of shots that hit the goal range, 3313 offensive football, but it reminds me of the statistics made by Fleet Street when Hall led Millwall, playing against opponents with a three-back defensive system, Hall won them all. ”

"Hehe, I hope your words will bring good luck to England, okay, the players from both sides enter the stadium, the national anthem is played, and we will introduce the starting lists of both sides.

England 4321.

England vs Argentina, the battle of rivals is about to take place! ”

Today, the captain's armband of England is worn on Xiaobei's arm, this is the decision made by Aldridge yesterday, he did not choose Xiaobei as the captain, because he felt that Xiaobei's fame would have a negative impact on the pure competitive field, this year and a half of the national team, Xiaobei is still a heartthrob, there will be N more commercial activities off the field, but at least in the national team, the cooperative relationship between them is very harmonious, even let him play the right back, away from the area that is easier for him to shine, Xiaobei has no complaints, which makes Aldrich satisfied, After the last World Cup, it was the dark trough of Xiaobei, and it was the fate of England and Xiaobei to meet Argentina.

Men don't have the so-called letting go, only the courage to face it and break it with their own hands.

Argentina's captains in this period are more vague, Simeone, Ayala, Veron, have all worn the captain's armband, and in this game, it is Veron who wears the captain's armband.

When the two teams shook hands with each other, the meeting between Beckham and Simeone became the focus of attention, but both of them seemed calm and looked like they had forgotten their grievances.

The fans of England and Argentina have already started a noisy cheering battle in the stands, and the game is igniting in the midst of the uproar!

From the very beginning, England shrank their formation, and they retreated further back than when they played Sweden in the opening game, which is a matter of course, because the Swedish team took the initiative to shrink at the beginning, and England did not need to retreat too much, which is considered decent, but this game is completely different.

Argentina launched an all-out pressing attack directly.

The madman Bielsa saw England's posture, and secretly cursed a turtle with a shrunken head in his heart, and at the same time raised his chin and his eyes became sharp: England wants to defeat Argentina by counterattacking defensively? Let's see if you can prevent it!

In his opinion, Argentina's offensive point is spread out, and it can only focus on Sweden!

In the last game, Aldridge gave England 25 minutes into the game today. Get a discount. 10 minutes.

The first 10 minutes. No matter what changes occur on the field, England is mainly defensive, absolute defense, when defending, Owen has to retreat to the center circle, McManaman and Scholes have increased their retreat, and the offense should not pursue fast and stable. Pass the ball more, run away, and get the whole team into the game.

The fans in the stands and the spectators in front of the TV watched Argentina press the half-court attack and England seemed helpless.

The Argentine fans cheered passionately in the stands, eager to rush into the stadium and stomp on England's feet, while the England fans were a little worried.

This Pampas Eagle seems to be quite awesome.

Possession, pressing, shifting the attack, Argentina seemed to get into the game faster. Precise passing and orderly coordination.

But. Aldrich was not the least worried.

Argentina played back and forth, just going around in circles on the perimeter.

With a fan-shaped 35-yard area centered on the goal, Argentina couldn't even penetrate the attack.

This is also the flaw of Bielsa's proud 3313, too much emphasis on the wing, too weak in the middle, and England put on a back three, coupled with Scholes's retreat, Argentina can only pass on the wing, indeed, they have a high success rate on the side, but it is very difficult to develop to the middle.

As a last resort, Gonzalez cut inside and shot from a long distance.

Aldrich almost laughed.

It's similar to what they did in the last game against Nigeria, with a long shot from the periphery, the so-called flashy attack, the combination of midfield and midfield, and the penetration of the ground pass is almost invisible.

England turned around and went on to attack, but they were not fast and tentatively switched two long-range shots, and neither team played a threatening attack.

"It seems that England is more conservative, Argentina seems to be helpless, their pass to the middle of the front field is almost not successful, once Veron received the ball, it was quickly cut off by Scholes and Bart, maybe Manchester United's teammates are familiar with Veron, and now, Argentina began to play the ball on the side to play crosses, but this style of play, to be honest, England is really not afraid, Barty looks lonely on the front line alone, Ortega captures the opportunity, but the ball does not land, his height of one meter seven, It's hard to get a header at England's backline. ”

The first 10 minutes are a process of getting into the game, testing, observing, and understanding the opponent.

Aldridge is accustomed to taking the lead and instilling this kind of thinking in the team, because England do not have the confidence to play to their strengths regardless of their opponents, and there are also reasons why they play defensive and counter-tactics.

In the stands there were Argentine fans holding signs that clearly disparaged Aldridge, behind Bielsa's name there was a definition of a master tactician, and behind Aldridge, there was only a question mark.

It's like the Argentine media is ridiculing England, which is known as the originator of modern football, but the more they play, they go back more and more, 442 becomes 4321, and they have entered the World Cup by relying on anti-anti-anti-anti-reconstitution.

It's not just England vs. Argentina, it's Aldridge vs. Bielsa.

So far, Aldrich has not been the slightest bit excited.

Because Argentina looks like just paper tigers.

Aside from speed, they have hardly any advantages.

Organization? Who else but a Veron who is confined on all sides in midfield? Who else in Argentina can bring a little bit of creativity to their passes?

A cross from the wing? It's a player, and compared to crosses, Argentina really can't compare to England, and Xiaobei exploded the Argentine team with one right foot.

And after limiting the speed of Argentina, let them turn to positional warfare, this 3313 Argentina, no matter how to intersperse running positions on the side, on the periphery, and how to go around magically, can not threaten.

Is a long-range shot from 30 yards considered a threat? Forget it.

If Argentina is dominated by Bilardoism in the contemporary era, Aldridge may encounter a stronger opponent, but now Argentina is gradually presenting its fate in front of England, that is, the positional battle is constantly pressing, piling up attacking players, and the space in the backfield is getting bigger and bigger.

From the 13th minute onwards, England finally began to really exert their strength, and the whole team was united, after a Southgate header cleared the opponent's cross, Lampard quickly passed the ball back to Bart on the outside, and then Butt passed straight to Scholes who was running in front of him, and the ginger head shook off Veron, strode forward with the ball, and before coming to Simeone, Scholes passed the ball to McManaman on the side.

McManaman's position in attack has changed markedly today, with the last game when he was more active in the middle, but today he was noticeably closer to the flanks and dribbling towards the line after winning the ball on the flank.

Argentina had just played a wave of attack, and the right midfielder Zanetti was returning to the defense, but McManaman started higher than him, so England played fast, and McManaman only had Argentina's back three in front of the actual parallel position on the wing.

No matter how McManaman handles the ball, he can't let him go with the ball on the flank, and Pochettino has to pull it out, press the inside line, and compress McManaman's range of motion, which is also reducing McManaman's options.

When Pochettino approached this side, McManaman took a step back and crossed to Scholes, who had just turned to look at Scholes, only to see Ginger head out of the ball, and the ball rolled between Pochettino and Samuel to the bottom line.

It was actually a one-two, with McManaman cutting inside after the pass and pressing behind Pochettino at the moment of the ginger's head pass.

McManaman only received the ball from the baseline position, and he had already entered the penalty area, and without hesitation, he swept in front of the goal, Samuel came to block McManaman lost his position, and behind him, Owen met the ball and pushed it, and the ball went straight into the net!

Owen was excited to celebrate, but he saw the England players angrily waving their fists in protest!

The linesman raised the flag and signaled for McManaman to be offside when he received Scholes' pass!

The England fans in the stands were outraged!

Near the back of the stands of the flag-raising linesman Said, England fans were thrilled.

"England were blown off a goal! Owen must have no problem scoring the goal, slow-motion replays show that McManaman had an arm that crossed Argentina's back line when he received a pass from Scholes and ran to the baseline, it seems that this is a fraction of a penalty, anyway, hopefully this incident will not affect the mentality of the English players, we should see the good side, Argentina have been attacking for so long, but it is not as threatening as our quick counter-attack in ten seconds, continue and we will definitely have good chances. ”

Bielsa had a false alarm, his heart was almost unbearable, he walked around the sidelines, or prostrated or crouched to observe the game, like a madman? Maybe it's more like an anxious person, and at this moment, he inadvertently saw not far in front of the coach's bench, Aldridge standing on the sidelines with his hands behind his back, indifferent to a goal being blown off, his expression did not change, but when the players surrounded the referee Corina to protest and walked back, his right hand stretched out from behind him and pressed down on the players.

Seeing Aldridge's immobile posture, the England generals immediately raised their heads and quickly forgot about the goal that had just been blown away.

One qiē, all in their hands.

With the attack just now, England's confidence skyrocketed, and it was no problem to destroy Argentina! (To be continued......)
