Chapter 276
Cornell’s successive successful saves.
Let the Peterborough fans forget their former main goalkeeper Christipim from the bottom of their hearts.
It also made the thousands of Sheffield United fans present feel more and more desperate.
And what makes them even more desperate.
Some of their players on the field,
After a few of Cornell’s swoops, it seems that there is also a problem with the mentality.
“Fordham!”
“Sheffield United’s substitute goalkeeper today is really good, his decisive attack in front of goal blocked a key pass passed by Lin Xu to Marriott! Prevented Petersburg’s intention to continue extending the score in the first half. ”
“In today’s game, the goalkeepers of both sides showed a very bright performance and became the key players on the field, “eight eight zero” but! ”
“It doesn’t matter if only the goalkeeper is doing well.”
“Sheffield United are still two goals behind, it is not enough to rely on goalkeeper Forderham at the back, Sheffield United must also seize the opportunity in the front! ~”
Colonel Guan’s voice just fell in the live broadcast room.
On the field.
That’s where Sheffield United’s opportunity came.
At this time, the first half of the game is nearing its end.
There are just under two points left in stoppage time.
Normally.
The attack organized at this point in time was already the last attack before the end of the first half.
Sheffield United fans undoubtedly had high expectations for this attack.
If you go into midfield with a score of 2:1.
Their chances of equalising in the second half would definitely have been greater.
But if you go into the break with a 2:0 scoreline.
That’s different.
Let’s not talk about the difficulty of chasing points.
The first half was fruitless and conceded two goals in a row.
There will certainly be a blow to the emotions of Sheffield United players themselves.
Everyone is looking forward to it.
After Fordham’s hand tossed the ball.
A pass from midfielder Ndiaye.
The football smoothly passed the penalty area of Petersburg.
Sheffield United’s old captain Billy Sharp picked up the ball less than twenty yards from goal.
It would have been quite a good opportunity.
Fordham’s hand threw the ball with some accuracy.
Young midfielder Ndiaye’s kick was also swift and could have created a good counter-attacking storm.
But hand-tossing is one of the most commonly used tactics in Petersburg.
This counterattack after the attack fails,
It is also the most familiar style of play for the whole team in Petersburg.
The players were naturally prepared.
After seeing Lin Xu’s pass to Marriott being stopped.
The central midfielders who are very high up don’t say a word,
Rushing to the position of your own small restricted area is a sprint.
Whether or not the opponent will use the tactics they are most familiar with to counterattack, they need to be prepared, after all, every time Petersburg is attacking, whether in the midfield or in the backfield, they all rush very strongly.
And in this case.
Once they are counterattacked, their backfield will be empty.
In that case.
The pressure on the goalkeeper is too much.
Especially after Norburn switched from midfield to backfield.
It may be that he has not fully accustomed to the identity of a defender, or it may be that the assists and personal goals he sent when he was a guest defender before gave him a new understanding of the identity of a defender.
in a word
Every time Petersburg hit the offensive.
Norburn is very active.
This puts even more pressure on the Petersburg defense.
Although Cornell’s current save success rate is really high.
But you can’t put all the treasure on the goalkeeper alone!
They also want a clean sheet bonus for defenders!
Thereupon.
Although Sheffield United’s counterattack has been fast.
But when Billy Sharp got the ball near the small penalty area, because the ball was not passed very well, so the Sheffield United captain had to adjust after receiving the ball, so that he controlled the ball well at his feet, and then wanted to rush forward-
Petersburg has a lot of defenders who have retreated to goal.
Not only are the defenders concentrated in front of the goal.
Even in the midfield, Dembele and Hamilton, who are relatively much better physical, (read violent novels, go on the Feilu Novel Network!) )
It’s all at the same time that Billy Sharp is in control of the ball…
The return defense reached his vicinity.
But
Although there are quite a few people in the small restricted area.
Petersburg still did not let his guard down.
Because it was Billy Sharp who took the ball.
Sheffield United’s old captain, Billy Sharp, is already here though.
But his ability to shoot and possess the ball.
It doesn’t seem to be affected much by age.
On the contrary, there is a feeling that the older you are, the more demon you are.
In almost half of today’s game.
The 36-year-old captain has almost all of Sheffield’s shots.
And every shot is very threatening.
If it weren’t for Cornell’s super-god play today that made Sheffield United fans desperate.
Petersburg is sure to concede the ball.
Of course.
It’s not Billy Sharp sticking the ball and not giving others a chance.
It is Sheffield United’s players, who seem to trust their old captain more when attacking than another striker on the field, Brewster.
When the midfielder passes the ball, most of the time it goes directly to the right side of Billy Sharp.
This also makes Petersburg’s defenders naturally put more defensive focus on Billy Sharp when defending, and keep more and more eyes on him.
“I have to say that Petersburg’s return 1.8 defense speed is really too fast!”
“Obviously, the more training volume of the whole team in Petersburg during this time, and their conscious training after daily training, not only makes these young lads improve rapidly in ball control and passing, and shooting, but also in physical improvement is huge, they can participate in the attack, but also can defend in the shortest time!”
“Even they ran faster than Sheffield United’s front court!”
“Billy Sharp just got the ball, and there were already three Peterborough players in front of him who were stuck in his position, ready to intercept and steal, and Hamilton and Dembele who appeared on his side had also blocked Billy Sharp’s breakthrough path to both sides…”
“So now…”
“Billy Sharp has a serious problem.”
