Chapter 507 Thigh Lukaku

"Juanfran forced a breakthrough from the right! Alonso didn't keep up, but the quality of the cross was not very high. Bailey made a clearance in the middle! Gabi...a long shot! Unfortunately, it was too high!"

Amid the narrator's shouts, Gabi shook his hand and ran back unhappily. As a defensive midfielder, he is not very good at attacking forward, but the opportunity just now was really good.

This is just a microcosm of Atletico Madrid's strong attack after the opening.

They kept pressing and launching attacks, trying to score goals early. In this way, they would appear to be more comfortable in the next game.

Atletico Madrid's pressing ability matches their offensive ability, and the threat is indeed quite great.

Carrasco quickly made a threat too, cutting inside after receiving a pass from Saul, and then suddenly kicked up a long shot. Gulacci was well positioned and flew to save the ball.

Atletico Madrid created an excellent opportunity in No. 12 minutes. Felipe forced a breakthrough from the left and then made a pass. His crossed arc ball passed Van Dijk and Bailey, and Gullie inserted in the back row. Ziman leaned over to the top 12 meters away from the goal, but it was a little straighter, and Gulac, who had just moved over, just held the ball in his arms.

"Unfortunately, it would be nice if Griezmann's header was a bit more tricky this time..." Many commentators began to sigh.

In the next period of time, the two sides began to fall into a stalemate. Atletico Madrid's press was indeed fierce, making it difficult for Southampton to organize an offense, and Southampton also slowly stabilized itself in the constant possession of the ball. position.

Ji Ya nodded slightly off the court. Atletico Madrid withstood the onslaught after the opening, and the next thing will be easy, especially Southampton's passing and ball control began to play a role, which is very important.

Southampton began to pass back and forth and dispatched, which caused huge boos from Atletico fans. In their view, Southampton was wasting time, which was an obvious cowardly and shameless act...

However, they overlooked that Atletico Madrid's games tend to be more conservative.

Of course, Southampton did this not to kill time, but to find opportunities to score goals.

Although in the away game, as long as you lose one goal, you can advance, but if you can score one goal, then you will have the initiative, and you will be more evasive.

Southampton's current downfall is just to make the opponent more anxious, rather than just thinking about killing time.

Atletico Madrid's players were originally very calm, but the current situation really made it impossible for them to really calm down.

Gundogan was tripped by Gabi in a pass in midfield, Southampton got a free kick, De Bruyne took the free kick, the ball bypassed the wall, but was easily saved by Oblak.

"We still lack a good free kicker." Ji Ya sighed.

"Ward and Du's free kicks are okay, but they are not the main force." Benelli shrugged.

Ji Ya sighed, and Prowse has no complaints when he plays as a substitute now, but he can theoretically enter the main lineup and partner with De Bruyne, but with Gundogan and Coutinho, his space is indeed not much.

As for Du Yue, he has a chance to gradually become the main force next season. He actually played a lot this season.

Atletico Madrid wanted to attack next, but was actively pressed by Southampton in the midfield.

So far, Southampton has never had a midfield press in this game. This time it happened suddenly, and Atletico Madrid was a little unresponsive...

As soon as Saul got the ball, Kanter pressed up strongly. Saul barely protected the ball, and then turned around to pass it to Cork, but Gundogan blocked the ball halfway!

After stealing the ball, Gundogan did not pass De Bruyne, but kicked directly and passed the ball diagonally to the side!

Lukaku took the ball from the wing and started to force forward!

With an acceleration, he rushed past Gabi abruptly.

It was too late for Gabi to foul. Although he was still chasing after him, he couldn't catch up with the big black guy.

Lukaku dribbled the ball forward to the corner of the penalty area before meeting Felipe who hastily retreated. Facing Felipe who came up to intercept, Lukaku suddenly stepped on two bicycles in a row. When moving, he broke through the middle of the penalty area!

At this time, Godin also returned to defense.

He blocked Lukaku's forward path like a mountain. Lukaku made an emergency stop, pulled the ball back again, then swiped into the penalty area, and then forcibly rushed between Godin and Felipe past!

This time, his strong body played a huge role.

Both Godin and Felipe retreated hastily. The pincer attack of the two was enough to affect anyone, but Lukaku's attack was not affected at all, and he rushed from the middle of them abruptly. over!

Under the oppression of Lukaku's strength, Felipe disarmed directly, and Godin still wanted to work hard. When he tried to stick up from behind, Lukaku had already kicked the ball and kicked the ball hard. go out!

Faced with this powerful shot from close range, Oblak only had time to wave his arm, and the ball flew into the goal!

After scoring the goal, Lukaku first looked at the ball in the goal, then opened his arms and rushed directly to the stands of Southampton fans.

"The ball... the ball went in! Lukaku! Lukaku! Great goal! He started with the ball from the right side of the center circle, dribbled away from Gabi, then passed Felipe and Godin, and hit the ball Going into the gate guarded by Oblak! What a wonderful goal! He broke through Atletico Madrid's defense alone, and Atletico Madrid's solid defense was like paper in front of him! Southampton also scored in the away game A valuable goal, Atletico Madrid have a headache now, they are already three goals behind Southampton..."

In the shouts of the commentator, Southampton, whether they were the starters or the substitutes, or the coaches on the bench, all jumped up one after another. Everyone knew what this goal meant!

This goal means that Southampton has basically won two rounds!

"Hahaha, this guy really gave us a surprise!" Ji Ya slapped his hands and laughed.

This is the third season that Lukaku has joined Southampton, but in the first two seasons, although he was very important, he was not as important as this season.

Ji Ya played him as a false winger, which can be said to have completely shown his level. He still didn't score many goals, but he scored five goals in the Champions League and eighteen goals in the league. , This number is definitely not small, not to mention his running support on the field and his tactical role, which makes his value even greater.

After all, in addition to these goals, he also has no less than double-digit assists, and those performances that are not counted in the goal assist data, but are still very important!
