At seventeen, I went to Spain to win the World Cup

Chapter 197

"How should we play against Arsenal?"

"One word: forbearance."

When Kravitz and Klopp discussed the tactical arrangement before the game, they all focused on forbearance.

"Boss, how to forbearance."

"Don't fight back when you're beaten, don't talk back when you're scolded?"

Klopp rolled his eyes wildly.

"That's not called forbearance, that's called cowardice."

"We'll play a counterattack!"

"We'll use the tactics we were best at in Dortmund. We'll try a 442 formation, but change it to 424 when we counterattack."

"Give Arsenal the ball, but don't give them space to play beautiful football."

"When Arsenal gradually relaxes and starts to attack aggressively, we'll definitely get a chance to counterattack."

"Then we'll kill them with one blow and kill them completely!"

Klopp and Kravitz smiled at each other.

The two laughed strangely at the same time.

Time goes back to April 20, the FA Cup semi-final.

After the game started, Arsenal really got the right to attack.

A beautiful pass, especially the frontcourt fully utilized the offensive trident's talent around Giroud's pivot.

The versatile striker Lacazette and the extremely fast Iwobi repeatedly attacked Liverpool's defense.

But Liverpool, who played in a 442 formation, built a very stable defense chain, kept the players close, and combined regional defense with pressing defense to prevent Arsenal from finding a comfortable scoring space.

After creating a threat at the beginning, Arsenal never got any other opportunities.

As the game time passed, Arsenal's formation began to gradually press forward.

26th minute of the game.

"Arsenal's formation is in a clear position, Bellerin is pressing forward to participate in the attack."

"Wilshere passes the ball to the right side from the defensive midfielder position, Bellerin comes in to receive the ball, there is a chance to cross the ball!"

"Low flat ball cross-court pass, find Giroud!"

"A light tap with the heel, beautiful cooperation!"

"Lacazette receives the ball and passes it to Iwobi!"

"Shoot! Oops!"

"A beautiful pass, but unfortunately the final shot is of low quality and was held in Karius' arms."

"This is Arsenal's tactical ability, it's very beautiful!"

Coach Zhang was praising Arsenal's attack, and Karius, who was holding the ball, suddenly threw the ball with a strong hand to launch a counterattack!

Throwing it straight to the left, Bellerin pressed forward and had not retreated yet. At this time, Mane had already ambushed in place. After receiving the pass from Karius, he turned around and dribbled the ball. Salah on the right side pressed forward with a big hip step!

Liverpool launched a lightning counterattack!

"Counterattack! Mane dribbles the ball and passes it to Firmino."

"Pass it back to Mane!"

Mane passes it to Firmino, and the Brazilian center forward leans against the center back with his back, passes it back to Mane.

Mane meets the pass without making any adjustments, and passes it to the middle.

Lin Chen follows the pass, and without stopping the ball, he shakes his ankle and sweeps a powerful arc ball to the right!

Salah has already moved forward!

"Lin Chen passes it to the right, all with one pass!"

"Salah advances from the wing, Liverpool has four against three in the frontcourt!"

"Firmino moves forward to distract the defense, and Salah has space!"

"Cut inside and pass!"

"Mane is at the back post!"

"Header!!!"

"Beautiful!"

"Smooth! So smooth!"

"What is a counterattack!"

"Mane scores, Salah assists, Liverpool takes the lead!"

Gerrard stands up and cheers!

"GOAL!!!"

"Mane scored a goal, an extremely sharp and quick counterattack, beautiful teamwork!"

"Another crazy foursome!"

"MLSF completed a wonderful goal cooperation!"

"Arsenal paid the price for their forward pressure attack, they dared to leave space behind Liverpool."

Arsenal legend Henry shook his head and sighed, he knew Bellerin was fooled.

"Facing Arsenal, they kept playing 442 after the opening, and took the initiative to defend, obviously trying to relax the psychological defense of Arsenal players and seduce them to press forward to attack."

"After a long time of attack, Arsenal was really anxious. They moved their formation forward and used the attack of the full-backs to get more opportunities."

"Bellerin's pressure did create space for the frontcourt to score, but after failing to score, Liverpool seized the opportunity to convert, a beautiful counterattack tactic!"

Fans in major live broadcast rooms were all praising Liverpool's counterattack.

"When you have Mane and Salah, as well as a modern center forward Firmino, it is expected that you have a sharp counterattack ability."

"Liverpool scored a goal with their first shot, a terrifying conversion rate!"

"Liverpool's front trident was fully activated by Lin this season, and the status of the three players has improved significantly!"

The game resumed, Arsenal learned from their mistakes and began to stabilize their formation and continueControl the ball and find the right time to attack.

Liverpool's defense has been in a state of high concentration. Everyone knows the strength of this Arsenal team. They also have the ability to break through the opponent's defense in an instant.

36th minute of the game!

"Liverpool's defensive routine is very good, and the space between the players is still very tight."

"Ramsey tried to find an opportunity with the ball, and Lin Chen followed closely and defended very tightly."

"Ramsey didn't have any space to pass the ball!"

Ramsey kept pressing forward with the ball, sticking to Lin Chen. After several attempts, he couldn't pass the ball forward, and was forced to pass it to the right.

Iwobi was firm on the side, and still kicked the ball to Giroud.

There was no threat, but Giroud suddenly leaked under his crotch.

Lacazette received Giroud's pass from the side and kicked the ball again, passing it diagonally behind Lovren.

Giroud, who had just missed the ball under his crotch, had already squeezed Lovren and completed the counter-run. The angle was too small, but he did not shoot. He passed the ball with the outside of his foot and the half-high ball was lobbed to the back post!

Xhaka, who had been staying in the midfield, made an extremely concealed run and inserted it, appearing perfectly in the empty space at the back post!

He pushed the ball into the goal after Giroud's pass!

Karius was stunned in place, and the Liverpool players didn't even understand what had just happened!

"I said it a long time ago, this is the strength of Arsenal!"

Coach Zhang was completely immersed in Arsenal's wonderful team cooperation this time and couldn't extricate himself.

"So beautiful! All the ball was kicked out with one foot!"

"All the interweaving cooperation!"

"The clever movement combined with the midfielder's back-up created a scoring opportunity for the striker!"

"Giroud's wonderful connection was extremely wonderful. He attracted Lovren's defense by making a leak under his crotch, and then turned and inserted into Lacazette's pass. He even saw Xhaka who inserted into the back."

"This is a carefully practiced tactic, not a flash of inspiration. This is Professor Wenger's ability to train the team!"

"Arsenal also scored a beautiful goal and the score was tied!"

"One to one, both sides are back to the same starting line!"

"This is a game with the highest technical and tactical level!"

"Both sides played very well, a very high-level duel!"

"The ultimate team cooperation and pass-cut cooperation!"

"K-style counterattack VS Wenger-style pass-cut!"

"Look good!"

"Wonderful!"
