A brief review of the two focus battles in the last two days of the World Cup:
First of all, it is clear that generally weak teams fight strong teams mainly rely on dense defense, and by hoarding a large number of defensive players in the free throw area, the purpose of "setting up a bus".
and breaking dense defense is nothing more than the following four ways: one is to blast through the wing; the second is to bounce long passes and frequently raise high balls: the third is to sneak attack on set balls; the fourth is to rely on long shots.
In yesterday's game, facing the Iranian team's intensive defensive tactics, the England team achieved a wing blast with the two wings of Sterling and Saka: at the same time, through the altitude advantage of Maguire and Stones, they achieved the air superiority of the game, and finally broke the Iranian team's intensive defense.
. In the game, the Argentina team faced the intensive defense of Saudi team . First of all, it had a single offensive method, trying to quickly break through the Saudi team's defense line by long passes behind. In the America's Cup final last year, the Argentina team used this method to break through the Brazilian team's goal. But today the Saudi team obviously made tactical arrangements, using the " to create offside " tactics to make the Argentine team have no choice but to do anything;
followed by insufficient burst points on the wing. Due to the decline of talents, the Argentine team still needs to use Messi and Di Maria to conduct wing attacks. In the case of physical strength and impatience, the success rate of wing breakthroughs will obviously not be high;
In the end, the Argentine team did not have a high point, and there were no players over 190 in the entire team, especially Messi, Di Maria, Lautaro and other forwards were short and thin, resulting in a completely disadvantaged in the competition for the top of the high altitude ball.
Therefore, facing intensive defense, the Argentine team can only adopt the method of infiltration in the middle and cooperation in short passes, which is the most difficult way to break intensive defense. However, facing many defensive players on the opponent, this "passing and controlling" style is too difficult and outdated, and the Saudi team focused on setting up heavy defense in the free throw area, which made this tactic very little effective in the end.
This game is the complete tactical victory of Saudi .
The tactical changes brought about by Messi’s successful transformation are to reduce his dribbling and breakthroughs, strengthen the scheduling of passes and sorting out the offense. Whether it is the national team or the club, Messi threatens the opponent's defense by passing the ball. Whether it is a game in Paris or Argentina, the commonly used offensive method is to rely on Messi to pass directly, hit the top, and insert the opponent behind.
And the Saudi head coach also seized this point, strengthened midfield interception, piled up the number of people in the midfield, and used offside tactics to limit Argentina's ball behind him. Argentina does not have traditional big centers and wing-side explosive points, and they are all No. 10 players of similar types. This tactic has very much restricted Argentina's offense, but Argentina has no way to make essential changes. The weaknesses of Argentina's offense were completely exposed in the first half
Similarly, Argentina's defensive weaknesses were also completely exposed, and the Argentine defender speed was still weak. Moreover, since there was no game in Quidoro Driguez and the interception in the midfield were not done well, the opponent only used one move: counterattack completely defeated Argentina's lay-off. This is a bit like the French
, but no matter what, they will unconditionally support Argentina and accompany Mero to the last World Cup!
