King of the Zone

Chapter 126

A newly promoted polo team from the Bundesliga can freeze Cheng Hai without scoring a goal for 45 minutes, which is considered very good.

Of course, this is not without cost.

Sometimes in order to prevent Cheng Hai from breaking through or shooting, the Augsburg players will inevitably try their best to pull and shovel Cheng Hai.

Even if Cheng Hai didn't want to flop, facing these real fouls, he couldn't bear it and fell to the ground, and then the opponent was shown a yellow card by the referee.

Throughout the first half, four Augsburg players received yellow cards.

Of course, the opponent is also very experienced. People who get yellow cards don't foul Cheng Hai very much, they just assist in defense, and other people who have not yet received cards will mainly foul Cheng Hai tactically.

But even so, the four players who have already received yellow cards are still a ticking time bomb for Augsburg.

Therefore, during the intermission, after Cheng Hai woke up from a deep sleep for 10 minutes, Klopp told Cheng Hai to retreat in the second half and start to take the ball from the midfield to strengthen dribbling breakthroughs.

Anyway, the team is already leading 4-0, and winning is a sure thing. Now it depends on whether Cheng Hai can score and break through the [-]-goal mark for the year.

Taking the ball from the midfield, on the one hand, the opponent's defense line cannot follow so far.On the other hand, Cheng Hai's speed and dribbling ability can be used to try to break down the opponent's defensive players.

If the opponent fouls or even gets a yellow card during the process, the opponent can be reduced.

Even if you can drive the ball into the penalty area and be fouled by the opponent, you may get a penalty kick.

And if you don't have the ball, you need to increase the number of back and forth runs to take the opportunity to throw off the opponent's defensive player.

Although the opposing team's defensive attention is focused on Cheng Hai, and Cheng Hai's off-ball movement is of little use, his speed and explosive power, the world's number one, are still a major advantage.

Once he runs at full speed, many people on the other side must be unable to keep up.

As for Dortmund, even if Cheng Hai is too fast, he may not be able to catch the passes of his teammates, but his full-value stopping skills can make up for it, and he should be able to receive some passes.

Although in this way, Cheng Hai may not be able to last for 20 minutes in the second half.But if this is not the case, the iron wall of Augsburg will not be broken, so we can only try this method.

However, it was a little disappointing that after the start of the second half, Augsburg made a substitution first, replacing one of the defenders with a yellow card, and replaced it with a new force with no yellow card and plenty of physical strength. Continue to strictly defend Cheng Hai.

In this way, there are only three players with yellow cards on the field.

Despite this, Cheng Hai did not flinch, and still faced up to the difficulties. According to the method ordered by Klopp, he retreated first and then retreated to the vicinity of the midfield.

No matter how strict Augsburg's defense is, it is impossible to raise the defense line to such a forward position, and only a few midfielders can defend it.

But in this way, it was impossible to completely block Cheng Hai's route to catch the ball.

In terms of Cheng Hai's off-ball running position and speed, it is no problem to get a pass from his teammates near the midfield with huge space.

Then he can use his physique, dribbling, speed, breakthrough skills, etc. to attack with the ball.

Cheng Hai's change was something Augsburg hadn't expected before.

In the 46th minute, just one minute into the second half, Cheng Hai retreated to the left side of the center circle to get a pass from his teammates, and then started his performance.

Because the number of defenders near the midfield is too small, and those who participate in the defense and interception of Cheng Hai are all midfield players, not professional defenders, and their defensive ability is not as good as that of the players on the back line.

Therefore, although there are no forwards who don't understand defense at all, they still can't stop Cheng Hai.

Facing the first player, Cheng Hai naturally used a perfect oxtail to shake the opponent away and break through the opponent.

Although the other party immediately turned around and followed him, Cheng Hai's speed was too much faster than him. Not only did he fail to catch up with Cheng Hai, he didn't even have a chance to foul, but was thrown further and further away by Cheng Hai.

Then, two more players blocked Cheng Hai's way.

Cheng Hai first put himself in a confrontation with one player of the opponent through changes in the route and rhythm of the ball, and the other player was placed on the side.

Then he pulls out the perfect pedal bike.After stepping on four bicycles in a row, the opponent was finally deceived by Cheng Hai's flawless and natural fake movements, so that he lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground. Cheng Hai broke through from the inside of the opponent.

Precisely because it is the inside, and there is another player, it is sudden and deceptive.

Cheng Hai used his bicycle to break through the first one, then used his physique to resist the impact of another player on the side, and dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area.

At this time, Cheng Hai had already broken through three people in a row, causing the opponent's back line to swarm.

A full three players surrounded Cheng Hai from all directions, and they were about to form a siege with the players behind him who had just been broken by him.

If the opponents succeed in forming a siege, even with Cheng Hai's full-value dribbling skills, the only way to go is to lose the ball.

But Cheng Hai naturally wouldn't throw the ball easily.

Although there was a full 27-[-] meters away from the goal at this time, Cheng Hai decisively shifted to the side to get out of the way, and then immediately took a shot.

With Cheng Hai's full shooting strength and shooting skills, the shot he shot was naturally powerful, without lack of strength, speed, or angle.

It's a pity that the distance is a little too far, and the goalkeeper Simon Yench is also very focused, and made a save response immediately.

But Cheng Hai's shot angle was too tricky. Although Yanqi finally touched the ball, he failed to lift the ball off the crossbar. Instead, the ball hit his palm, jumped up, hit the crossbar, bounced back to the penalty area, and was then kicked out of the sideline by the Augsburg defender to clear the siege.

Seeing this bouncing ball, Cheng Hai suddenly had a new idea.

He can not only strengthen the breakthrough shot, but also use multiple shots to make the opponent's clearance error or save.

He noticed just now that after he finished his shot, the players around finally stopped staring at him, but followed his shot and followed the ball involuntarily to see if his shot would turn into a goal.

Under such circumstances, the next time he completes a shot, he will have a short chance to be unmarked or have fewer people to mark. He can use his off-ball running position and speed to rush into the penalty area and capture that possible fleeting opportunity for supplementary shots.

Although the opportunity may not necessarily appear, and it may not necessarily be grasped when it appears, it must be tried.

In the following time, as Klopp said, Cheng Hai kept withdrawing to the midfield to catch the ball, and then dribbled the ball to the left and right amidst the loud cheers of the fans, and then kept trying to shoot, looking for opportunities for supplementary shots as much as possible.

With Cheng Hai's strength of more than 20 full-value perfect skills, it is really difficult for Augsburg to defend Cheng Hai perfectly when he deliberately strengthens dribbling breakthroughs.

In the 48th minute, another player received a yellow card for uprooting Cheng Hai while trying his best to defend.

In the 49th minute, Cheng Hai shot a shockingly violent long shot, which was neither damaged by the opponent's defender flying to block the hole, nor was it blocked by the goalkeeper. Instead, it hit the post and bounced back to the penalty area.

However, Cheng Hai himself did not predict the direction of the rebound of the ball, so although he rushed into the penalty area, he failed to grab the first point and complete the supplementary shot.

But this ball made Cheng Hai see the possibility of a supplementary shot.

Cheng Hai's dribbling breakthrough continued.

In order to stop Cheng Hai's breakthrough and shot, the Augsburg players did their best.

However, Cheng Hai dribbled the ball past two players in the 54th minute and then passed the ball.

Before Cheng Hai dribbled the ball by himself, until he finished the shot or was brought down by the opponent, he had never passed the ball to his teammates halfway.

Therefore, Cheng Hai's goal at the front of the penalty area this time surprised the players defending him.

It was this move that allowed Cheng Hai, who had no ball under his feet, to run flexibly in a zigzag line, hit the line of the penalty area, and received the ball from teammate Jing Duoan.

This is a sudden hit-the-wall coordination during a breakthrough.

It is also a tactic that Cheng Hai suddenly figured out after the previous few breakthroughs. With the help of his teammates, although the opponent will still focus on him in defense, it will be easier for him to break through if he does not have the ball at his feet.

That's it this time.

Originally, he had already broken through two people, and his speed slowed down. It would be very difficult for him to break through the two guards blocking his way in a row.

But Cheng Hai didn't break through directly, but passed the ball out. Without the ball under his feet, it was easier to break through with five balls running.

It is much easier to shoot after receiving the ball passed back from your teammates after completing an off-ball breakthrough.

This time it was like this. Cheng Hai, who broke through to the penalty area line without the ball, received the ball back from Jing Duoan hitting the wall. Cheng Hai didn't wait for the other defenders of the opponent to block his shooting route, and volleyed the ball while running. The ball was drawn to the lower left corner of the goal.

However, because Augsburg's defense against him was too tight, Cheng Hai's shot was rather hasty, and the angle was not well shot, and he was rushed by the focused goalkeeper Simon Yench at the first time.

But Cheng Hai's shot was on the line of the penalty area, and the distance was already quite close, only more than ten meters away, which was much closer than the long-range shot of 26 meters.

Therefore, although Yanqi threw the ball, he failed to save the ball completely to the bottom line.

The ball hit his finger, changed direction slightly and continued towards the goal.

Under the expectant eyes of countless fans at the scene and in front of the TV, the ball hit the post with a "bang" and bounced back into the penalty area.

In the 54th minute, Cheng Hai completed another shot, and it was a threatening shot from the penalty area.

Unfortunately, the goal was missed and was saved by the goalkeeper Yanqi.

The ball was touched by Yanqi, and finally bounced off the post, but failed to bounce into the goal.

The fans of Dortmund suddenly sighed in their hearts, showing a look of disappointment, while the players and coaches of Augsburg were slightly relieved.

Finally, they were saved again, preventing Cheng Hai from scoring a goal and breaking through the annual [-]-goal mark, making them themselves the background kings of media reports and heated discussions around the world.
