Starting with Real Madrid

For how to mark Harland, Paris Saint-Germain can be said to be racking their brains. curtain

This sky-defying high center forward is really difficult to deal with.

The defense line is pressed up, the space behind him is wide, Haaland's speed will be a nightmare for central defenders; the defense line is too far back, Haaland's burly height and excellent physical confrontation, and his increasingly good header , making defenders and goalkeepers feel like they are facing enemies.

Facing such a center forward, how should he defend?

This is a common problem faced by all central defenders.

Because Harland is really comprehensive!

The defensive system designed by Tuchel is full of flexibility. When Harland and Rashford press up, Paris' defense line also shrinks. Mazraoui and Bernat stick to the inside of the two wings to prevent crosses from the side. .

Once the ball went out of the penalty area, the central defenders headed by Varane and Marquinhos desperately pressed the defense forward, trying to force Harland out of the penalty area and away from the most threatening area. curtain

The Norwegian center appeared in the penalty area, and everyone was frightened and frightened.

Especially with the addition of Rashford, it would be fatal.

After a few tentative attempts at the beginning and attempts to attack, Leeds United also slowed down a little.

After the first fast break was missed, Leeds United immediately slowed down and took control of the ball.

For example, this time, Leeds United's quick counterattack did not come out.

Alfonso Davis and Rashford formed a cooperation on the left, but Mazraoui and Kanter retreated very quickly, and Jorginho returned to the defense in the middle, which made Leeds United's fast break impossible. effect.

Rashford protected the ball with his back, exited the penalty area, and passed back to Enzo Fernandes who was open in the space. curtain

The Argentine midfielder took the ball, slowed down the tempo, and wanted to take control.

The ball went out of the penalty area, and Leeds United's Harland and Rashford, who were at the top, retreated, especially Rashford, who retreated further back, looking like he was going to meet Enzo · Fernandez.

And Alfonso Davies, who also dropped back aggressively.

This made the defensive players of Greater Paris think that Leeds United still wanted to attack the left, which is the right of Greater Paris.

But at this moment, Enzo Fernandez did not pass the ball to Rashford or Alfonso Davis, but faced Kanter, pulled horizontally, and sent a diagonal long pass with his right foot, The ball was delivered accurately to the right side of the small penalty area.

I saw that Sancho, who was originally at the back of the trident, had advanced quickly at this moment and went straight to the right side of the small penalty area, while Harland and Rashford, who were originally retreating, suddenly joined forces Stop abruptly, turn around, and move forward quickly.

After Sancho rushed up, facing the landing point of the football, before the ball went out of the bottom line, he volleyed the ball and went straight to the middle of the goal, but he slid out of the bottom line of the field together with Varane . curtain

Keylor Navas tried to block the ball, but he stood next to the right post and missed the ball.

The football fell to the middle of the small penalty area line, and I saw Harland rushing forward quickly, grabbing ahead of Marquinhos, and directly fell to the ground with a shovel shot, and sent the ball directly to the bottom of the net that was close at hand.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"Harland!"

"In the 12th minute, Haaland opened the scoring for Leeds United!"

"Very exciting, a very sudden goal!"

"We saw that Leeds United completed a very wonderful offensive coordination!"

"From Enzo Fernandez's long oblique pass, Sancho then inserted a volley pass to the middle, and Haaland followed up with a shovel shot."

"The whole scoring process came very suddenly!"

The entire Dragon Stadium erupted into crazy cheers from the Leeds United fans.

Countless fans were shouting hoarsely.

Harland rushed out of the field excitedly, ran all the way, and finally slid and knelt on the edge of the field, and once again put on a five-hearted celebration, welcoming the cheers of Leeds United.

cheers.

The players of Leeds United also rushed out one by one, hugging Harland together.

"It was a very sudden goal."

"Leeds United have created threats twice in a row before, but this time is obviously different from before."

"We saw that this is Leeds United quickly organized a second attack after the frontcourt fast break failed. Paris obviously failed to react in time, and Leeds United seized the opportunity."

"The current situation is a bit unfavorable for Paris."

…

Continuing to play a threatening offensive, allowing the opponent to expose loopholes in the weak link of defense, this is Leeds United's forte.

Once the opponent exposes a loophole, Leeds United will be desperate and devote all their strength to attack.

Paris obviously knows this too. After Tuchel lost the ball, instead of daring to press it out, he adopted a more secure tactic to deal with Leeds United's ensuing, stormy offensive. curtain

But the Ligue 1 overlord is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp.

Especially in the case of the whole team's shrinking defense, the three midfielders composed of Kanter, Jorginho and Pogba have formed a solid midfield barrier, guarding to the death in front of the defense line.

After blocking Leeds United's tide-like offensive, Paris is constantly looking for opportunities and trying to counterattack.

However, Leeds United arranged targeted tactics based on the characteristics of Paris, especially focusing on dividing the three players of Neymar, Cavani and Dembele, so that they had to fall into the dilemma of fighting each other.

This makes Paris players have to frequently rely on personal ability to create threats.

To say that these players in Paris are all well-ranked stars in world football with super personal abilities.

Even if they cannot form an effective joint force in the offense, relying on the personal abilities of the players, they can still create a lot of opportunities, or force Leeds United's defensive players to foul. curtain

Especially on the two sides.

This created an interesting situation. Paris' counterattack threat was not great, but Leeds United fouled a lot.

As a result, Paris frequently used free kicks, or the offensive opportunities formed after free kicks, to create some threats.

Even Marquinhos almost scored with a free kick.

But it is a pity that the Brazilian central defender failed to seize the opportunity.

In terms of positional warfare, it is difficult for Paris to pose a threat.

Gradually, as the game deepened, especially after 30 minutes, Leeds United once again stepped up the pressure on Paris, especially the rhythm and intensity of the game, which made Paris fall into a passive position again. curtain

In the 33rd minute, Leeds United was in the midfield. Declan Rice made a sudden grab. Before Pogba, he blocked the ball with his foot. The ball was picked into the right side of the penalty area.

Sancho was on the right side of the penalty area and sent a cross with his right foot without stopping the ball.

Harland in the middle followed up and hit with his left foot!

This shot was very sudden, and the strength of the shot was quite amazing, but at the critical moment, Navas made a side attack and saved the ball straight to the bottom line.

The Costa Rican goalkeeper was almost injured by Harland's powerful shot. When he stood up, his hands kept shaking, and his painful expression made Tuchel very nervous on the sidelines.

He was worried that Navas was injured.

Fortunately, Navas quickly signaled that he was fine. curtain

But this is enough to see how hard Harland's shot was just now!

"Leeds almost scored a second goal!"

"The current situation is very dangerous for Paris. Tuchel must find a way to reverse the situation as soon as possible. Otherwise, in the second half, the whole situation will become more and more unfavorable to Paris."

"Even time will be on Leeds' side."

Although, the Champions League final is ninety

Minutes of the game, but the side behind will become more and more passive as time goes by.

In the end, you may even be cornered.

This is the benefit of scoring first in this crucial final. curtain

…

At the end of the first half, Leeds United launched another wave of fierce offensive.

Whether it is Rashford or Harland, they frequently get opportunities in the penalty area.

But tonight's game, Navas has become more and more brave.

The Costa Rican goalkeeper saved at least three or four excellent shots from Leeds United in the first half, which won him a lot of applause, and also ensured that Paris fell behind 0-1 at the end of the first half.

If it weren't for Navas, Paris would have conceded at least two or three more goals in the first half.

But everyone is also clearly aware that Paris is indeed unable to keep up with Leeds United in terms of game rhythm. curtain

Especially when Leeds United picked up the pace, exerted pressure, and increased the intensity of the game, Paris immediately fell into a disadvantage.

This is by no means accidental, nor is it merely a tactical disadvantage.

More importantly, the overall competitive state of Paris players is not as good as that of Leeds United.

And this kind of competitive state not only depends on training, but also depends on the league.

Being able to reach the finals proves that the overall strength of Paris is strong enough.

But they were lucky. They encountered the slow-paced Manchester City in the semifinals, not Zidane's Real Madrid, let alone Leeds United. Otherwise, Paris would not be able to enter the final.

But facing the wolf-like Leeds United, Paris is obviously at an absolute disadvantage and can't catch up no matter how hard it is. curtain

Pochettino obviously realized this, so at the beginning of the second half, he let Leeds United continue to exert pressure and speed up the pace of the game from the beginning.

His idea is very clear, use the existing players on the field to further consume the players of Paris, and at the same time pull the game into the rhythm that Leeds United is best at.

Not only that, in terms of specific tactics, Leeds United began to purposefully take advantage of the advantages of the two wings, thereby creating the dominance of Rashford and Harland in the penalty area.

As soon as the second half started, in less than 5 minutes, Leeds United made two consecutive wing attacks. One time, Ashraf from the right stepped in to cooperate with Sancho. He made a cross from the right, and Haaland failed to grab the goal. point.

There was another time when Rashford retreated to respond, turned around and sent a pass, Alfonso Davis went down to the bottom line, and the low ball passed into the penalty area. Harland grabbed a point in front of the goal, but was given by Marquinhos blocked out.

…

Tuchel wiped his face vigorously with both hands, and looked at the court solemnly. curtain

The two wings of Greater Paris are under tremendous pressure, and the two wings of Leeds United are really too strong.

Sancho and Ashraf, Rashford and Alphonso Davies, these two wingers can blow up any team in European football and make all teams frightened.

In the past, in Paris games, Pogba's side was able to provide more support to the offensive players in the frontcourt, but tonight under Valverde's restraint, Pogba also felt the pressure.

Thinking of this, Tuchel immediately walked to the sidelines and made adjustments to the players in the frontcourt, especially Cavani.

He signaled the Uruguayan center forward to actively pull to the two sides to make full use of the gap left by the opponent's two full-backs advancing forward, but soon, he thought about it again and shook his head.

Cavani is 34 years old, and it is obviously too much for him now.

Back then, Cavani was indeed an immortal fighter, but now that he is old, he can no longer work as hard as he did when he was young, especially tonight, when he looks exhausted. curtain

Tuchel immediately turned and walked back, and signaled to Shubo Moting on the bench, telling him to warm up quickly.

Paris is about to make a substitution.

Shubo Moting is Tuchel's favorite player. Let him go up at this time to replace Tuchel. I believe it can better interpret Tuchel's

Tactical intent.

Although Shubo Moting is also 32 years old, he is two years younger than Cavani after all, and he came off the bench.

At this time, Paris desperately needs a center forward to use the two wings of Leeds United to create more attacking space for other teammates.

Only through offense can Leeds United's frantic offensive momentum be suppressed.

"God knows, how did these guys develop their physical fitness?" Tuchel frowned in difficulty. curtain

But Tuchel never imagined that when Choupo Moting was still warming up and Cavani was still panting, he ran to the right side of the frontcourt, ready to receive Dembele's pass, Leeds United finished Made a steal.

Rashford dropped back to close on Mazraoui, forcing Dembele's ball to be intercepted by Enzo Fernandes.

Alfonso Davies took the first step to block the ball, Declan Rice stepped forward in time, passed the ball forward, and gave it to Harland, who was retreating in front.

Harland received the ball with his back and crossed it to Sancho, then turned around and moved forward quickly.

Sancho rushed forward, entered the 30-meter area of ​​Paris, and caught up with Harland's pass on the right rib, but at this time Varane, Marquinhos and others were all in front.

So, the England winger stopped suddenly.

This sudden pause made Paris' defensive players a little unexpected. curtain

Varane hesitated for a moment and had to post Sancho immediately, while Bernat continued to defend.

Because, Ashraf came up.

Sancho has shined this season, and Ashraf's support and support on the wing are indispensable.

And Sancho's pause was obviously waiting for Ashraf.

After the Moroccan right back came up, Sancho immediately distributed the ball to the right, allowing Ashraf to catch up.

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized.

Bernat even had such an expression, he guessed that Sancho made an emergency stop to wait for Ashraf. curtain

Therefore, Bernat immediately caught up with Ashraf.

To everyone's surprise, Ashraf also slowed down after receiving the ball from the right.

Sancho intentionally or unintentionally ran to the middle to interfere with Varane's attention, as if creating space for Ashraf to attack.

But suddenly, a white figure rushed all the way from the midfield, sprinting forward at an extremely fast speed, and rushed straight between Sancho and Ashraf.

Ashraf also sent a diagonal pass knowingly and gave the ball to the right side of the penalty area.

Valverde cut in at high speed and went straight to the right side of the penalty area. After catching up with Ashraf's oblique pass, he sent a low pass with his right foot and sent the ball straight to the goal.

The football slid over the turf, and just retreated to respond, but at this moment, Harland, who had already ambushed in the penalty area, stepped forward decisively, went around in front of Marquinhos, and used his physical advantage to suppress the Brazilian central defender. Sweep with your right foot to meet the incoming ball. curtain

Goalkeeper Keylor Navas instinctively tried to block, but the ball almost brushed the right post and got into the goal of Paris, which was close at hand.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"Two to zero!"

"It's Harland again!"

"My God, Leeds scored two goals in a row!"

"Haaland scored a hat-trick!"

"It's just unbelievable. Leeds United have done an almost textbook attack, from the left to the right, and then through the right. Through the defenses of Greater Paris."

"It's really a breathtaking offensive coordination!"

"Haaland also calmly seized the opportunity and scored twice!"

"Two to zero, the current situation in Paris is very dangerous!"

…

When Leeds United scored two goals in a row, they won

After taking the lead, the game ended early to some extent.

In terms of score, Leeds United led 2-0, and on the scene, the White Rose achieved an overwhelming advantage.

This makes Greater Paris want to reverse the score unless a miracle is staged. curtain

But judging from the performance of the whole game, Paris simply lacks such strength and on-the-spot performance.

From the performance point of view, Paris could not keep up with the rhythm of Leeds United throughout the game, which is the most terrible thing.

"Grand Paris's rhythm tonight is simply impossible!" Wenger kept shaking his head.

Obviously, he is no longer optimistic about Paris Saint-Germain.

Even directly sentenced to death.

"As Gao said just now, they have been comfortable in Ligue 1 for too long. The current competitive state of the players in Paris is not even comparable to Leeds United, which is fighting in the fourth line this season. You can imagine that they are slack now. .” Ferguson also felt very sorry.

This season's Paris is a little weaker than last season, making it impossible to even threaten Leeds United on the scene. curtain

It seems to be two to zero, but in fact, Leeds United can get a big score, and the scene is almost one-sided.

The advantages are too obvious!

Tuchel is actually ready to give it a go. After replacing Cavani with Choupo Moting, he replaced Jorginho with Draxler to further strengthen the frontcourt offense.

Paris immediately changed into a 4231 formation, with Kanter and Pogba forming a double midfielder.

This change did allow Paris to regain a lot of advantages on the scene, but Leeds United also stabilized their position through substitutions and adjustments, and the two sides began to enter a stalemate.

But by this time, it was already 80 minutes.

Grand Paris tried to speed up several times, wanted to speed up, but couldn't get up no matter what. curtain

This is the most depressing part of the Ligue 1 overlord in this game.

When they don't want to be fast, Leeds United can increase the pace of the game very fast, making them very awkward; but when they want to speed up, Leeds United will do everything possible to slow down the pace of the game, Spend time with them.

In a state of desperation, Neymar even received a yellow card for this.

When the game entered the 85th minute, everyone could feel that Paris Saint-Germain was gone.

In the stands, the fans of Leeds United can't wait to start celebrating ahead of schedule.

"It's over!" Ferguson shook his head and sighed.

Gao Shen stood up uncontrollably, clutching the guardrail with both hands, ready to applaud at any moment. curtain

Win this Champions League, Leeds United will achieve the quadruple crown!

This is definitely a legendary season for Leeds United.

For the entire European football world, it will be the beginning of a legendary history.
