6 Leon taking over the game
After several wonderful attacks by the river plate, Santos' momentum dropped a lot.
This is also one of the most distinctive features of football games. If one side plays well, the opponent will definitely not play well.
"Wait, Camby, give me the ball." Just as Cambiasso was about to charge the ball again, Leon suddenly stopped him.
Camby didn't have any intention of questioning Leon's decision. He passed the ball back to Leon. Even if Leon's decision this time might cause the River Plate team to miss a good opportunity to attack, Camby would not doubt Leon half a point.
Leon took control of the tempo after receiving a return pass from Camby.
"It's almost there. The first physical fitness limit has been reached. It will be a big loss to attack rashly at this time." Leon looked up at the scoreboard. Thirty-three minutes have passed. This is a physical fitness limit of the River Plate players.
Leon, who is very familiar with the physical reserves of his teammates, did not launch an attack when the River Plate team was about to reach the peak of physical fitness. He stabilized the situation and slowed down the rhythm of the game by passing with his teammates in the backcourt.
Santos' physical fitness has also reached its peak. Robinho, Diego, Andrei and others are all average in physical fitness. Only Elano is still alive and well.
But Santos fans can't accept River Plate's slow passing game at their home court...
This is our home field! Go get the ball back!
"Santos!!!!!! Santos!!!!!!!!! Santos!!!!!!!!!!" The fans who never knew the tiredness began to cheer for the home team.
The players of the Santos team also suddenly became energetic. Under the leadership of Elano, they rushed to the midfield of the River Plate team.
"Leon be careful!" Cambiasso also kindly reminded his partner.
Obviously the Santos people know that this guy wearing No. 25 is the core of River Plate's midfielder, so Elano also rushed to Leon immediately.
"On the left?" Elano pounced on Leon from Leon's left side, so Leon turned around deftly to protect the ball, and then broke through from his right side.
This trick is called avoiding the reality and circling the ball on the football field. This ball control technique is the most practical and the easiest way to get rid of the opponent's pressing.
For example, when a person rushes towards another person from one side, if the other person can avoid the direction of the person's center of gravity and bypass it from the other side, then he can get rid of it.
Just like passing the ball, people who really use their brains to play football will find out why they make so few mistakes? Because it is very simple, assuming that a person's field of vision is his passing direction, then this range is roughly 180 degrees...
As long as you calculate the angle of the defensive player's position and pass the ball from the dead corner of his position, then the ball will never be missed.
Elano's rush was indeed fierce, but Leon's handling was also very calm. After getting rid of Elano, he strode the ball through the midfield. At this time, another Santos player also stepped forward again to stop Leon. Onwell.
right.
Lionwell slightly changed the trajectory of the ball to the left and successfully got rid of the defender, because the Santos player jumped at him from the right, so just let him go to the left, then he can Formed a very good breakthrough.
In high-speed dribbling, Leon's brain is very clear.
After Cambiasso and others saw Leon blowing the horn of attack, they followed Leon and rushed towards Santos' position one by one.
Ortega and Dalisandro are on the left and right, and Nano in the middle is also rounding in front of the defense.
In a blink of an eye, Leon has come to the periphery of the penalty area. He dribbled the ball for more than 20 meters before knocking the ball across to Cambiasso.
The reason why it took so long to pass the ball is because the Santos team's position was not confused by his breakthrough. It is easy to make mistakes when passing the ball in a state of high-speed dribbling.
So Leon chose to take the ball to Cambiasso after taking it to a safe place.
Cambiasso also immediately passed the ball to Ortega's feet. The little donkey had almost recovered at this time. After passing through the peak of his physical fitness, Ortega, who was much more comfortable, forcibly overtook on the left!
At this time, the right back of the Santos team obviously couldn't keep up. The reason is very simple, the Santos team is still at the peak of physical fitness! They did not take advantage of the River Plate team to slow down the pace of the game to take a good rest, but still wasted their physical energy under the encouragement of the fans of the home team!
This Santos team is too young, whether it is Diego, Elano, Robinho or Andre are too young.
Of course, their opponent River Plate is also very young, but the young River Plate has a seasoned Lionwell.
The game has fully stepped into Lionwell's rhythm and control.
Leon's big hand has completely grasped everything.
On the court, Ortega began to rush towards the penalty area after breaking through from the left. At this time, the Santos team also had a gap in the penalty area because the central defender used to fill the position of the full-back.
Ottja passed the ball with his right foot and the ball flew into the penalty area!
High center Nano jumped high in the penalty area, and he and Santos' central defender had a head-to-head meeting!
The two touched the ball at the same time. After Nano and the Santos central defender fell at the same time, the ball also flew irregularly to the outside of the penalty area...
At this time, Leon, who had already been waiting on the line of the penalty area, stopped the ball with his chest. He observed the goalkeeper's position from the corner of his eye, and then he pulled out his right foot!
Chest stop volley!
The whole action is not sloppy at all!
Fluid and free!
Leon's shooting confidence is very high now, which also makes his shooting movements very standard.
At this moment, Leon is the eagle on the Pampas grassland, flying high in the Urbano Stadium!
Time and space stand still!
The cheers of the home team fans stopped abruptly!
"Lionwell scored the leading goal for River Plate!"
"It's wonderful, this volley is really beautiful, Leonwell continues to lead the South American Libertadores Cup scorer list with seven goals!!!!!!"
"Perfect shot! Who can tell me, is this kid really a midfielder?" the Argentine commentator roared excitedly.
The entire Urbano Stadium seemed incomparably silent...
Ortega, Cambiasso, Dalisandro, and the high center Nano who just fought for Leon's chance to shoot were all excitedly surrounding Leon!
He once again opened the door to victory for the River Plate team.
His computer-like scheduling can't help but remind the Brazilian fans at the Urbano Stadium of the magnificent prince Redondo...
Santos' twin stars Diego and Robinho are eclipsed at this moment! In front of Argentina's first talent, Leonwell, the Santos team looked so immature.
River Plate coach Carlos Babington raised his arms and shouted from the sidelines, and the 2,000 River Plate fans who followed the River Plate team from afar also occupied the Urbano Stadium.
"Long live your son! Long live your son! Long live your son!!!!"
Your son on the pitch! Leonwell used to be called a noble son by some River Plate fans and teammates because he often didn't come during training, and he might only play two or three times a year when playing games.
But now, the name of your son is entirely to explain the love of River Plate fans for Leonwell!
Because every goal of Lionwell is worth a thousand dollars! So precious! So he is your son! The unique noble son in the century-old history of Riverbed!
After conceding the ball, the Santos team wanted to counterattack immediately, but after Robinho cyclized on the left and lost control of the ball due to his weak legs, the Santos players realized that they were really good. tired...
Their extreme physical fitness makes them exhausted.
So in the last few minutes of the first half, the morale of the River Plate team became stronger and stronger. This time, Leon did not stop Cambiasso from attacking with the ball.
With a big wave of his hand, he blew the horn of onslaught!
The only pity is that the defenders of the Santos team are in a good position today. Although they are very tired, relying on their tenacious willpower and unyielding spirit, the Santos people kept the score of zero to one.
Otherwise, during the intermission, the score may become zero to two, zero to three...
When the halftime whistle sounded, the River Plate players all walked back to the locker room with smiles on their faces, while the Santos players looked much more dejected.
They're young...Young people tend not to be as sophisticated as the old players when they encounter setbacks and difficulties.
But Leon's expression is still very serious, "Because they are young, they can not be afraid of tigers. In the second half, we must pay attention to Santos' counterattack, Camby."
Cambiasso next to Leon nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, partner, the two of us are unique in both offense and defense. I will be consistent with you."
Leon also smiled at Camby. After more than half a year of cooperation, Leon and Cambiasso really have both offense and defense. You must know that the tacit understanding between the two is very important in the position of the midfielder.
Because single midfielders are rare in modern football, double midfielders are a common tactic, so basically if a midfielder is famous, his partner will definitely not be much worse than him.
For example, Chelsea's Buffalo Essien and Makelele, such as Liverpool's Gerrard and Alonso, and later Alonso and Mascherano, such as Professor Bu and Harvey after Barcelona...
Well, it's like what those rotten women on the Internet often say... Men these days, if they don't get gay, they're not exciting!
Having said that, Santos' visiting team's locker room is not bad, at least except for the small and old ones, there is still hot water.
To know that many European leagues, er, especially the visiting dressing rooms in Russia, are terrible.
This is not unsportsmanlike, this is their home court, and everything is decided by others. If you are strong enough, then you overcome all this, instead of making excuses like the national football team.
In other words, it is said that when a Premier League team visited Russia one year, it happened to be winter, it was freezing and snowy, and there was no hot water in the dressing room of the visiting team. The home team said that the water pipe was broken. Then the officials of this Premier League team asked, why does your home team have hot water? People said it again, because the water pipe of the visiting team was broken.
Then when the midfielder, the Premier League coach, was about to set up tactics, the electricity suddenly stopped again... The Russians simply turned off the heating...
So, this Premier League team lost, and their head coach talked about it after the game, but no one paid attention to him.
Because, if you have the ability, you can overcome these difficulties and take the victory! Otherwise no excuses! Russians hate sissies!
But today, Santos' visiting team locker room is not bad! At least the River Plate players can get some rest.
Then wait for Santos' counterattack in the second half with peace of mind.
