Chapter 169 Liverpool's Isolation Tactics

At the press table, reporters from all over the world gathered around to analyze Yi Le's handling of the pass just now.

Purely academic discussion, without any personal emotions mixed in, and without any partiality.

Their conclusions were unprecedentedly unified.

The pass just now was simply amazing.

A simple 'rebound' directly tore Liverpool's defense. Looking at the entire football world, there is only one player who can tear Liverpool's defense so lightly.

The gold content of this game was also directly raised by this goal.

Previously, many Spanish media were complaining about the quality of this Champions League final.

They feel that the final without a La Liga team is a pecking game. Both Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool are lucky to reach the final.

Can the Champions League final without Ronaldo and Messi be called a final?

But at this moment, they shut up.

Whether it is Yi Le's pass or Van Dijk's calm handling, they all demonstrate the top level of the two positions in today's football.

Liverpool is very good at defensive counterattacks, and Atletico Madrid has the same attributes, but Liverpool's defensive counterattacks are more aggressive than Atletico Madrid's.

Their two full-backs, Robertson and Arnold, both have offensive attributes, and Liverpool's offense often comes from their assaults,

But in this game, because the midfield was suppressed, Liverpool as a whole was more defensive.

As expected before the game, the first 20 minutes were Paris Saint-Germain's attack time. During this period, Klopp chose to avoid it. They didn't need to head-on with Paris Saint-Germain.

After all, in terms of pure offense, Paris Saint-Germain is better.

But what about after twenty minutes?

 …

At the coach's bench, Klopp could not be found, he had already appeared on the sideline.

This means that Liverpool will start to fight back.

The appearance of Klopp is like a signal, and the playing style of the entire Liverpool team has become extremely wild.

They began to join the full-court press, running without hesitation in physical fitness, and a high-spirited momentum emerged spontaneously.

Liverpool is different from Paris Saint-Germain.

The core of the Paris team is the players, that is, Yi Le.

But the core of Liverpool is off the field, the head coach Klopp.

As an outsider, Klopp can better observe the form on the field and make the most correct judgment.

At this time, Liverpool already has an opportunity to attack, and they cannot be passively beaten throughout the game.

With a hint of a smile in Klopp's expression, he looked at the Chinese star in the midfield.

In the past two years, Liverpool has been firmly suppressed by No. 21, but now this Liverpool team is not the same Liverpool they used to be. They have completed the reinforcement of the lineup, and they are qualified to stand on the highest stage in Europe.

Now is the time for Paris Saint-Germain to play what is called a Liverpool attack.

Liverpool's counter-suppression began, and the momentum of Paris Saint-Germain's attack was stopped as soon as the full-court pressing momentum appeared.

Liverpool's position is very smart. They completed a quick supplementary defense in the seemingly outrageous press. Often, the Parisian player with the ball needs to face the press of two Liverpool players, and the offensive pass path is blocked. Die, they can only make defensive back passes.

Yi Le wanted to go to catch the ball, but he found himself isolated by Liverpool.

Relying on the special attributes of the three midfielders in the midfield, Liverpool directly cut off the connection between Paris' backcourt and Yi Le.

The two Liverpool full-backs continued to attack so that the Parisian midfielder did not dare to move forward.

If you want to pass the ball to Yi Le, you have to risk being surrounded by three players.

"These guys!"

Yi Le looked at the surrounding situation and frowned deeply.

Unknowingly, I have fallen into Liverpool's isolation trap. The only way to get the ball is to retreat, but if Yi Le retreats, Liverpool will definitely press in.

These two guys, Arnold and Robertson, are very threatening crosses, so what should we do?

Just when Yi Le was hesitating, Liverpool's offense was flourishing.

"Arnold stepped forward, he broke through Rabiot's defense, he has come to the midfield position, Liverpool's three forwards have moved closer to the center, this is Liverpool's best way of attack, Salah, Mane, Filipino Firmino's ability to grab points is very strong."

"Arnold passed the ball, the ball flew to the left wing, Salah was beautiful! He stopped and dribbled, and the Egyptian star showed his excellent basic skills!"

Salah entered the penalty area, which made Paris Saint-Germain's defense in a hurry.

Liverpool's offensive and defensive transition was too fast, and Yi Le and others did not have time to retreat. At this time, they could only rely on Paris' defense line to defend alone.

Buffon has started roaring.

He is directing his teammates to run, while squatting down, ready to save at any time.

He didn't know what Salah was thinking. This man's technique is perfect, he can pass and shoot.

Salah pulled towards the left wing and suddenly made a pass.

Marquinhos said badly in secret, and when he turned his head, he was horrified to see Firmino ready to shoot!

"Firmino, shoot!"

"Buffon!!!—"

The previous sentence was a passionate roar from the Premier League commentator.

The latter sentence was a surprise to the French narrator Miches.

yes!

Buffon stood up at the most critical moment. He had already thought about the possibility of Salah passing the ball, so he kept an extra eye.

When Salah passed the ball, he still rushed to the side.

Stretching his body in the air, he slightly touched the ball with the tip of his hand, causing the line to change, hitting the goal post and rolling out of the baseline.

The 40-year-old veteran Buffon saved Paris Saint-Germain.

There was a huge din from the stands.

Liverpool fans, sorry lament.

The Paris fans breathed a sigh of relief.

The ball just now almost scared them to death.

On the sidelines, Boas couldn't sit still.

He came to the sidelines and squatted down, frowning deeply.

Liverpool's tactics of isolating Yi Le actually worked wonders.

Klopp's tactics are very complicated, and he has practiced watching the running positions of Liverpool players many times. Klopp came prepared.

He has been hiding this hand all the time in order to isolate Yi Le.

As long as Yi Le is separated from the team, Liverpool can suppress Paris Saint-Germain.

In the 20-minute layout, Paris Saint-Germain's aggressive forward pressure did fall into Klopp's trap.

Yi Le was directly isolated, leading to the implementation of Liverpool's entire counterattack plan.

The context of all tactics is very clear, and the most terrifying thing is Liverpool's tactical execution.

A good army must have iron discipline.

The same is true for a strong team, and the tactical arrangement requires strong execution to support it.

Liverpool's ability in this regard is even better than Paris Saint-Germain.

Boas thinks he has control of the team, but he can't achieve Klopp's control.

Now he needs to find a way to help Yi Le, which is obviously impossible based on Yi Le.

Klopp won't let him do that.

Then we can only find other breakthroughs.

Fortunately, in addition to the core of Yi Le, Paris Saint-Germain has another driving core.

The definition of dual-core is not only that one plus one is greater than two, but sometimes it needs to fight independently.

Yi Le is obviously the purest core.

But Neymar, the core of the spare tire, is not vegetarian.
