823 Flames and seawaters

The England players understood Aldridge's words and dissected the words of Guò, and Argentina was no longer mysterious in their eyes.

Xiaobei raised his hand and asked: "Coach, you said that offensive football pursues an atmospheric creation, we can't do it, I won't argue with this, I believe we all agree, but, I want to know who in today's football can do it?" Just talk about the national team, not the clubs, the clubs, Millwall should have done that in the last few years. ”

People are realistic, and it is not interesting to stubbornly fight for the benefit of their tongues.

England is short of talent, and it really has no advantage over other teams, and what Argentina is pursuing, it seems, there are many teams in Europe that can be pursued, such as Italy and Spain, which are full of talent.

Aldridge pondered for a few seconds, shook his head and said, "These have nothing to do with our game tomorrow, and there is no point in discussing them. ”

But he had a team in mind, a national team with three titles in the next four years: Spain.

The World Cup winner will be born every four years.

But if you want to say that with a style, subverting the sensational championship in football, the first ten years, the last ten years, only Spain, this is a kind of atmospheric creative force, revolutionizing football aesthetics, creating an era, before that, who will repeatedly talk about the boring number of possession as if it were a law of physics? The impact behind this has caused the world to discuss, study, imitate, and target, as if a war has been ignited, and few other World Cup champions have been able to do this.

Fans will fall in love with Argentina because Argentina is attacking, attacking like crazy. Or rather. Any team that recklessly plays offensive football. It's hard to lack suitors.

But why is there still a zài like Italy? Can they pursue defense as an art, even if the whole world is saying that Italy is anti-football, negative football, they still keep going with their faces, even if they have a large number of talented attacking players, defense is still the first point they consider?

This is the difference between fantasy and reality, the difference between a dreamer and a sane person.

Aldridge turned sideways, pointing to the formation on the map. "Argentina's tactics are based on attacking football, Bielsa gave up Riquelme for the sake of speed, oh, maybe some of you haven't heard of him, he was a member of the World Youth Championship champions, and he was the Argentine Footballer of the Year for the last two years, and last year's South American Footballer of the Year," he said. Also, Bielsa was firmly in the attack, alternating Barty and Crespo. It's also about speed. However, there is a big premise for this. If you're thinking about it now, you'll be able to guess what. ”

Irving, as an offensive player, blurted out: "Space! ”

Aldrich snapped his fingers and said, "That's right, space." If there is space, speed is the biggest advantage, and without space, the speed advantage cannot be brought into play. They take the initiative to attack, we stand on the defensive, we don't give them space to attack, we will minimize their speed advantage! ”

In fact, this is also the key problem encountered by Argentina in this World Cup, Aldridge combined with the game video to the players said: "Look, in the last game, Argentina played Nigeria, before the header from the set-piece Batitong Guò, Argentina's speed advantage did not play at all, because Nigeria was conservative, Argentina only had two sports shots in the penalty area in the whole game, and the other sports shots came from long shots, and the threat fell Yan zhòng, and only after they were ahead, In the end, Nigeria pressed up and Argentina played a counter-attack, and their speed advantage was brought into play, hitting the second shot of the game in the box, which was completely shaken off the defender in the counterattack. That's what I'm going to tell you, tactics, we restrain them! ”

Aldridge instills tactical arrangements in the players, never without a target, to convince the players, it is necessary to get to the point, it makes sense, just rely on enthusiasm to fight, that is not nonsense.

This is also Argentina's hard injury, Bielsa is still too ideal, 3313, theoretically point-to-point, this formation has changed a lot, one by one to break through each line full of confidence, but no opponent will compete with you at a balanced level, Nigeria is so, Sweden is so, England, don't force the team's face, you can do this, and like Riquelme, a classical forward midfielder, the position of the dense defense may be able to have a clever pass, but Bielsa does not want him, more inclined to use players in Europe, Veron, Aimar.

The refusal to play the double striker is also a way to reduce the local crushing of the individual individual of the dense defensive center in the positional battle.

"Our tactical basis is just-for-tat with Argentina, as long as we defend against their attack, turn around, our attack also has an advantage, the reason is very simple, Argentina is using three backs, and they, there are no world-class defenders, in other words, the defenders who are used to the central defender position do not protect the wing enough, and those who are used to playing the central defender should also have defective defensive habits in the central defender position, which will be the most critical point for our attack!"

As the cliché goes, to play three-back defense, the personal strength of the three guards must stand out from the crowd, especially the requirements for defensive awareness, which is the top.

It is conceivable that the full-back will play the three-back back, the defensive area will be expanded, and the swing of defensive awareness in the mid-field will have an impact on the key defensive moments.

The national team is by no means a place to transform the players' playing habits, at this point, Italy sometimes plays three backs, at least those players are no strangers to the three-back system in the club, and Argentina does not have this confidence, so in many cases you will see Argentina's backfield defense, the defense line will be very chaotic, teammates in the area crash, there are not a lot of vacancies, but the opponent is not strong, has not been tested, and there are few three back formations in international football since then, which is also affected by various factors, such as encouraging offense at the same time, It must be the requirement for defender ability and the upper limit is broken, such as the modern winger becoming the mainstream.

Just as Aldridge was seriously arranging the tactical arrangements for tomorrow's game, the World Cup was getting hotter and hotter.

Busan Stadium, South Korea.

When the game reached the 24th minute, a huge change occurred on the field.

Henry, who won the Golden Ball at Millwall and won the title of Europe's No. 1 striker, was unable to turn the tide in Zidane's absence, but was shown a red card by the referee as if it was stained with the blood of a Gallic rooster!

Henry walked away gloomily, lingering for a few seconds as he walked into the tunnel, as if remembering something, and when he looked back at the pitch, his desperate eyes filled with a hint of pleading.

He didn't want to leave, he could only hope that the French team could create a miracle and then move on

In the end, the 10-man French team shook hands with Uruguay, Uruguay seemed to lack ambition for the World Cup, and after losing to Denmark in the first game, they faced the French team 11-10 early, and did not burst out with a strong desire to win.

The two teams then heard the news that Senegal and Denmark had also drawn with four points, three more than the other two opponents.

Group E's German team met Ireland in the second game, the strength of the debut failed to continue, the German team, as if it was still the German team that was not favored, Klose is difficult to compare with Henry in the club, but in the World Cup, his limelight far overshadowed Henry, this battle, he scored again, but the hero is the lion king Kahn, who continuously blocked the shots of Duff and Keane Jr., if there was no Kahn, the German team may not be as simple as being drawn before the end.

Saudi Arabia continued their nightmare, being crushed by the German tank and then beaten by the African lions Cameroon by a goal, and they still did not score and became the first team to be officially eliminated from the World Cup.

From the opening on May 31 to Saudi Arabia's defeat by Cameroon on June 6, only a week has passed, no more, no less, just 7 days, and then, there are teams that can officially book tickets home, and the cruelty of the World Cup has also begun to surface.

When the day dawned, the England team left the hotel, came to the airport, boarded the plane to Sapporo City, where they spent more than an hour on the plane, then spent half a day resting and preparing, and then in the evening they faced off against their arch-rival Argentina.

The England team traveled in a low-key manner, but the power of the media was powerful, and when the England team left the hotel and got on the plane, the news reached Sapporo, and countless England teams, or most of them, were fans of Xiaobei, who came to greet them, even if they looked at them from a distance, they seemed to be satisfied.

Calmly preparing for the game, the players adjusted their mindsets, and when the sun went down, they took a bus to the stadium: Sapporo Dome Stadium.

Outside the stadium, there were already countless fans waiting, and inside the stadium, there were fans entering early.

England vs Argentina, the battle of old enemies, is on the verge of breaking out.

Both teams have won the game before, in fact, this game is the best strategic choice and result for qualifying, however, the new hatred and old hatred of the two teams, I am afraid that no one will really fantasize about the end of the draw in their minds, Argentina will not, Argentina is a bit of a weak revenge love, because the scars of the war are not enough to be healed with one, two football stadium victories, and the people of Argentina will hope forever, and again and again stomp England under their feet.

England fans are also not reconciled, and the arena feud of 86 and 98 years is something they cannot forget.

That's what makes this game special, it's long beyond the competition.

But Aldridge didn't care about that, and when he walked into the Sapporo Dome Stadium, he looked at the packed stands, the red and white of England, the blue and white of Argentina, making the stadium look like half fire, half sea. (To be continued......)
