The Day I Played with Ronaldo - Chapter 610
? After the kickoff, Ricardo did not rush to lead the team to attack, but first stabilized and controlled.
Manchester City is not in a hurry to rush for a high post. QPR controlled the ball and they recovered the formation, allowing QPR to control the ball in the middle and backcourt, only to increase the defensive force when QPR hits the front of their penalty area.
QPR played very cautiously, there was no good opportunity to fall down first, rather than rush to send straight plug. Both Ricardo and Modric retreated deeper today to strengthen control over the midfield.
Yes, this is a game that must be won, but if you want to win, you must not let the opponent score goals.
Manchester City’s attack power is not weak. Tevez and Aguero have short speed and impact, their skills are good, their shooting skills are good, and QPR dare not give them too many opportunities.
Today Ricardo was mainly guarded by Yaya Toure and Sabaleta.
Sabaleta is easy to deal with, but Yayatoure is a savvy bull. Ricardo does not want to face it, so he would rather retreat a little deeper.
It doesn’t matter that he can’t score by himself. As long as he can help his teammates to score, he can also win.
So Ricardo tried to retreat to bring Yayatoure out, but Yayatoure was not so stupid. He only approached when Ricardo was in the front and kept a good defensive position.
David Silva and Nasri sometimes gave up the offense and came to defend Ricardo.
So Ricardo’s defensive resistance is actually very large.
And Manchester City players are also more defensive against him today, Ricardo must beware of injuries.
If he ends up injured as early as in the game against Manchester United, there is no guarantee that QPR will not crash.
So in the locker room, Simone told Ricardo that “It is important to complete your tactical duties, but it is more important to ensure that you are not injured. I don’t need you to fight every ball, I only need you to play healthy for 90 minutes. “
You must know that Simone’s coaching style is very dirty and the QPR player’s style is very fierce, but he does not ask for Ricardo.
In Simone’s view, this QPR lacks anyone who has a substitute, except for Ricardo.
Modric is absent, and Borja Ballero can be used; Naingeran is absent, and Arda Turan is also available. Fernandinho can’t play, Thiago Motta can make up … Every position has a qualified substitute.
Ricardo alone, he cannot be replaced by Calejon. It can even be said that Calejon cannot even achieve half of his role.
Of course, Ricardo doesn’t want to lose all season because of his injuries.
But he will not deliberately avoid physical confrontation.
Football is a highly antagonistic sport. Players who always do physical confrontation may not play well, but players who avoid physical confrontation must not perform well.
For example, Messi, who is only 1.7 meters tall and short, is so small in front of the giants who are 1.85, 1.9. But he was never afraid of physical confrontation with those giants.
He is certainly not stupid enough to always use his thin and thin body to hit those giants, but if the other party looks for opportunities to fight with his body, he can definitely hold it a couple of times.
Ricardo is also the same. He will not take the initiative to fight against a muscular man such as Yayatoure. He will use his mind to play football and reduce the number of direct physical confrontations.
But when the physical confrontation comes, he will never flinch.
In the ninth minute of the game, Ricardo took the ball on the left and cut inside. Yayatoure immediately came to make up the defense and rushed forward aggressively, like a tank to knock Ricardo away.
Ricardo immediately changed the line with the ball. Although it was inevitable that he collided with Yayatoure, it was not a frontal collision after all. He took a moment and continued to bring the ball forward.
Yayatoure is tall and long, and he is not slow to run. He has not been thrown away by Ricardo. He has been trying to squeeze Ricardo with his body, slowing down Ricardo’s speed and waiting for the opportunity to intercept the ball.
However, Ricardo protected the ball very well. When he reached the front of the penalty area, Ricardo rubbed a half-height arc ball with his left foot, and the football flew directly to the goal.
Ronaldo didn’t touch the ball, but the football came back around when it was about to fly off the baseline. Arda Turan stopped the ball dangerously, and then kicked Krish again to make a cross. Ronaldo turned around and took a volley shot, but unfortunately the football kicked softly out of the bottom line.
This is QPR’s first shot of the game.
Of course, Manchester City, which has occupied the home field, has only completed one shot, which shows that both sides played more cautiously.
From the point of view of ball possession time, the ball control rate in the first 10 minutes of QPR reached 59%, but most of the ball control was concentrated in the midfield and their own half, and did not create much threat.
This situation is not unexpected than QPR players expected.
In fact, both sides are now competing for patience.
Because their two teams are in the same situation, they must win if they want to win the championship. They cannot accept a draw.
However, the party that took the lead in the offensive is bound to leave room behind and give the opponent a chance to fight back.
If the offense is not successful, but the opponent counterattacks steals one, the rest of the game will be difficult to play.
So Simeone predicted before the game that Manchester City will definitely be stable after the opening. He really expected it.
The core of QPR’s guidance is also a word of stability.
Today’s game, we can’t open up, but see articles in subtleties.
In the 12th minute, Manchester City tried a long shot from Nasri. The quality of this long shot was very high. Handanovic failed to save the ball, but the football slipped out of danger.
1 minute later, Manchester City attacked again, Tevez turned on his back to make the ball, Silva strode the ball over, passed Alderweireld, shot with a small angle of his right foot, and hit the ball. Was weak and stopped by Handanovic.
Soon QPR still used the color ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Ricardo made a pass in the counterattack. Ronaldo kept pace with Kompany. In the end, Ronaldo took the lead to touch the ball. He nibbled the ball with his toes and the football passed The attacking goalkeeper Hart missed the goal slightly.
The commentator said: “Both sides have invested very little in the offensive and played very cautiously. Although there are hot scenes in the game, they are more intense and less exciting. Ricardo is too far behind today and his retreat The Ranger’s ball control advantage has been strengthened, but he has rarely been able to directly threaten Blue Moon’s goal. “
“Manchester City, the two small fast forwards still caused some trouble for QPR’s defense. Wilton Heng and Aldverelder are both tall and tough defensive players. They have strong frontal defense ability but turn around at a slow speed. Slow. In fact, many people predicted that Mancini would use Dzeko with Aguero before the game, but Mancini’s choice was unexpected and achieved good results. “
“Looking at the performance of these two teams, it is likely that there will not be too many goals in this game. I personally think that the final score should be 1: 0. As for who can win? I can only say that both sides have a chance. “
