Capítulo 45: 45: The Powerful Van Dijk!
"This game, Southampton's lineup is 4-2-3-1!"
"This lineup is very popular in the Premier League now. It uses a double midfielder to sweep the midfield, and then allows the players in the frontcourt to organize the attack unscrupulously!"
"Southampton's starter is next."
"Goalkeeper Kelvin Davis!"
"Four defenders, from left to right Bertrand, Van Dijk, Jose Fonte, Cedric Suarez!"
"The two late midfielders are Steven Davis and Wanyama!"
"The three frontcourt players are Mane, Ward-Prowse and Tadic!"
"The single striker at the top is Pellet!"
"It is worth mentioning that the head coach of Southampton is the famous Ronald Koeman!"
"He was a Barcelona defender and a former Barcelona captain!"
"As a defender, Koeman still holds the record for the most goals scored by a Barcelona defender!"
While the game had just started, the Commentators quickly introduced the starting lineups of both sides.
"Leicester's side is 4-4-2, nothing has changed!"
"It's just that there was a staff adjustment in the starting lineup!"
"The goalkeeper is still Schmeichel!"
"The four defenders are the left-back Schlupp, Morgan and Huth's double center-back combination, and the right-back is Danny Simpson, who is starting in the league for the first time this season!"
"The midfielder consists of four, the left-back is Fuchs, the two midfielders are Kante's partner Rocky, and the right-back is the familiar Albrighton!"
"Two strikers, or Okazaki Shinji's partner Vardy!"
"This is the first game after the international break!"
"Hope the players on both sides can bring us a great game!"
...
Shortly after the start of the game, Vardy felt Van Dijk's difficulty.
Although in the morning when the tactics were arranged, Ranieri focused on Van Dijk in the meeting.
But it wasn't until the pitch that Vardy felt the pressure from Van Dijk.
With a tall body, he knows the placement and control of the ball very well, and his strong physical fitness makes Vardy completely unable to raise the heart of confrontation.
On the other hand, Okazaki Shinji was also restricted by the experienced Wundt, although he was older, and there was no way to help Vardy cope with the pressure.
But fortunately, with the cooperation of Rocky and Kante, the ball in the midfield was firmly under Leicester City's feet, so Vardy was not in such a hurry.
He quietly waited for the opportunity, he didn't believe that this guy Van Dijk was really so strong.
Judging from the scene, Leicester City almost dominated the game.
In the tenth minute of the game, Rocky made a long pass, and Albrighton who was caught on the flank, succeeded in being offside and brought the ball to the sideline to send a cross.
But before Vardy jumped up, Van Dijk had already cleared the ball.
In the 15th minute, Rocky instigated an attack on the left this time, and Fuchs dribbled the ball and shot inside.
But Van Dijk, who reacted quickly, used his head to push the ball out of the baseline again.
In the subsequent corner kick, Wundt jumped high and made a header clearance.
In the 25th minute, Rocky sent a high-quality curveball.
Seeing that Vardy was about to successfully receive the ball, I saw Van Dijk, who came from behind Vardy to help defend, made a tackle, knocking down the ball and Vardy at the same time.
Perfect defense without any fouls.
Vardy didn't complain about the foul. As an old fritter on the court, Vardy naturally knew how beautiful Van Dijk's defense was.
It can be seen from the applause from the Southampton fans at the scene.
Vardy hammered the lawn angrily.
This was the first time he has faced such a powerlessness against a central defender.
Almost all of the passes that Rocky was supposed to deliver were not delivered.
But he just couldn't get past Van Dijk.
He just couldn't leave Van Dijk behind.
For the first time, Vardy felt powerless in his heart.
Even if they were beaten by Arsenal's five goals in the first half before, Vardy didn't feel that way.
"It's okay, he's human too, and he'll get tired and make mistakes too."
"Let's kick slowly, don't rush."
Seeing what Vardy looked like, Rocky stepped up and patted Vardy on the shoulder, and took the initiative to comfort him.
"It is good."
"I don't believe it anymore, can he completely freeze me?"
Vardy got up, patted the grass and stains on his body, and said through gritted teeth.
"I wonder what Rocky will say to Vardy this time?"
"I think it should be the same as last time. I run when I see an opening. It's my problem that the ball can't be passed to your feet. If it's like this, Taphouse, what do you think?"
In the live broadcast room at St. Mary's Stadium, Neville took this scene into his eyes, turned his head to look at Taphouse and ridiculed.
"With Rocky's character, he will encourage his teammates. If you really want to know what Rocky said, just wait for the translation of the lip-reading experts after the game."
Taphouse glanced at Neville and continued to focus on the game.
Neville made fun of himself, shrugged his shoulders, and watched the game as well.
...
Forty minutes of the game.
It's Van Dijk again.
He blocked Rocky's shot and the ball bounced to Mane's feet.
The extremely fast Mane came outside the penalty area of Leicester City in a blink of an eye and kicked the door.
Schmeichel, who was focused and focused, took the ball out of the bottom line and gave Southampton a chance for a corner kick.
Van Dijk, Wundt, Wanyama, and Pellet all came to the entrance of Leicester City.
Mane made a gesture to tell his teammates that this time he was using the corner kick used in the training match.
Then, Mane passed the ball into the penalty area of Leicester City.
In the penalty area, Van Dijk jumped high, beat Huth who was defending him, and smashed the ball into the goal with his head.
1-0.
This was Southampton's second shot.
They scored a goal.
A goal from the centre-back, Van Dijk.
After scoring, Van Dijk roared, and was then surrounded by his teammates.
