Even Gu Ran was better! Gu Ran was faster than Ngogo in keeping his balance! The football was between them!
Gu Ran quickly shot and kicked the ball——
N'Gogo quickly hooked the ball with his toes without even standing firmly, and barely managed to get the ball back under his feet!
Gu Ran's first steal was in vain!
But Ngogo was also frightened and broke out in a cold sweat!
It was so damn thrilling! As a talented Premier League player, he was almost intercepted by a rookie!
——Speaking of which, N'Golo is indeed a talented player, and his on-the-spot reactions can be made without thinking.
N'Gogo's ability to protect the ball is also extremely strong.
Of course, this is also due to his long legs.
If his legs were an inch or two shorter, the ball would have been intercepted by Gu Ran, and Gu Ran would have been able to replicate the one-on-one move from the wing two minutes ago.
Not only did Ngogo break out in a cold sweat, but the Liverpool fans present also felt a chill on their backs! Liverpool fans thought that Ngogo's failure in the last duel with Gu Ran was just because he underestimated his opponent, and Gu Ran rushed out rashly without knowing how to defend. However, after just this one encounter, Liverpool fans realized that it was not the case at all!
Who said that Gu Ran can't defend? Didn't he defend it? A pure rookie in English Football League One defended the talented Premier League star N'Golo Kante alone!
N'Gego simply couldn't hold the ball and advance on the left side where Gu Ran was! This 1v1 confrontation was really shocking!
All the Southampton fans roared and screamed! This kind of muscle-to-muscle explosion and collision was exactly what they wanted to see!
Southampton fans suppressed their anger for most of the game, but since Gu Ran came on the field, their roars have never stopped! More than 5,000 Saints fans, at Anfield, were as imposing as more than 40,000 Liverpool fans! After Gu Ran failed to steal the ball in the first attempt, he secretly admired:
The talented English Super League star is really strong! After almost losing his balance due to a physical collision, he was able to protect the ball in the first place!
Great... This is what it feels like to fight with a master!
Gu Ran's desire to win was ignited, his adrenaline surged, and he immediately took a step forward and pressed his body against Ngogo!
Close defense +3!
N'Gogo protected the ball while trying to shake off Gu Ran, but he tried hard several times and couldn't get rid of him!
Gu Ran’s hips pressed against him tightly!
N'Gogo used all his strength to fight against Gu Ran's close combat!
N'Gogo used his height advantage and put his elbow back to hit Gu Ran's shoulder!
Gu Ran suddenly felt very, very, very tired!
This level of physical confrontation is higher than any level of confrontation Gu Ran has ever faced!
The physical energy of both of them was consumed in an instant! Both of their muscles were also tensed to the extreme! If they continued to fight like this, with Gu Ran's height and weight, he would definitely suffer a loss! Gu Ran decisively focused his mind and quickly allocated 2 attribute points to "strength" and "power"!
The strength attribute immediately increased to 76 points! The strength attribute immediately increased to 77 points! Gu Ran's muscle circumference and strength soared to another level! Gu Ran's black eyes were filled with murderous intent, and a low roar like a beast came out of his throat. He held N'Gego's elbow with his shoulder and pushed N'Gego back!
The expression on Engego's face became distorted with horror as Gu Ran's muscle strength suddenly increased.
You know, this time, he even used all his strength!
However, Gu Ran was behind him, pushing him forward step by step like a bulldozer! ! ! Liverpool fans were all stunned! What the hell is this?
Ngogo, such a big guy, was eaten alive by a skinny Chinese guy? Ngogo, are you sure you are not acting? Why is the expression on your face more realistic than constipation?
“Ahhhh!”
"Chinese dad!"
"Push him! Push him! Push hard!"
Southampton fans were so excited that they got goosebumps!
This 1v1 scene was so explosive! Liverpool coach Hodgson couldn't help but stare in astonishment!
A complete rookie in English Football League One actually defended N'Gogo single-handedly and pushed N'Gogo backwards purely with his physical strength?
Not to mention Hodgson who couldn't believe it, even coach Adkins had an expression of disbelief on his face!
Gu Ran... is too strong? How can this be called "letting the problem surface"? Oh my goodness! What surfaced is simply a big shark! When this kid grows up... I'm afraid even O'Neal of the NBA won't be able to stand up to him? Coach Adkins clenched his fists in excitement and roared loudly: "That's right! That's it! Gu! That's it!"
——It was as if he had arranged in advance for Gu Ran to confront N'Gego head-on.
Exclusive coach Jacob shouted excitedly: "Yes! This is what I trained! Hahaha! That's right! I trained him using the Real Madrid way!"
Nutritionist Loina also shouted excitedly: "This is all thanks to my nutritious meals! Gu Ran has been eating the nutritious meals I customized for him and drinking the recovery water I customized for him!"
The team doctor, Mai Fu, sneered, "You seem to have never seen the world. Gu Ran is so strong because Gregory and I take good care of his body."
Gregory also had a smile on his face as someone who has experienced it before. "You have no idea how powerful my fascia knife skills are."
At this moment, the other Southampton players on the field were completely confused.
This situation is different from during training!
Should he rush forward to help Gu Ran with his defense or should he continue to retreat to defend? If he rushes forward to help with defense, what if N'Gego passes the ball? Wouldn't he be hit from behind? But if he continues to retreat to defend, what if Gu Ran can really steal N'Gego's ball? Wouldn't he be unable to cooperate with Gu Ran in counterattacks?
Why didn't Coach Adkins give instructions on the spot? Why are you so excited? Does the coach not know what to do in this situation?
How should we play now?
After all, the Southampton players were not yet accustomed to Gu Ran's playing style, and did not trust him enough. For a while, they could only stand there and maintain a defensive posture.
At times like this, we can only rely on Gu Ran to fight alone in the front.
Just as Gu Ran was forcing N'Golo Kante to retreat with the ball like a bulldozer, Liverpool's right back, Glenn, came up and got into the empty space behind Gu Ran in one breath.
Glenn did not choose to run to assist Ngogo in blocking Gu Ran's defense, because that would be very embarrassing.
After all, if two famous Premier League stars team up to suppress a pure rookie in League One, even if they succeed, it will not sound good to make it known.
Glenn wants the ball now! After he goes to the side, as long as Ngogo can pass the ball to him, they can form a two-on-one cooperation on the side and easily pass Gu Ran.
After passing Gu, Glenn could sprint violently all the way, accelerate and knock away Chamberlain, who was confused and had almost no defensive ability, and then pass the ball directly to the bottom or cut inside.
But... N'Gego turned a blind eye to Glenn's interlaced movement! N'Gego still wanted to rely on his own ability to break through Gu Ran, the "English League One pure novice" who had pushed him five or six meters away.
Gu Ran took the opportunity to move his position and blocked the straight line between Ngogo and Glenn! This blocking position is very predictable! Now, even if Ngogo wants to pass the ball, it is not so easy! Carragher in the front court yelled angrily: "Watfak! Ngogo, what are you doing! Pass, pass, pass!"
Joe Cole, who was responsible for marking Lallana, also began to move to the left, ready to support Ngogo who was in trouble.
Lallana, who was less under pressure, immediately and quietly penetrated to the right front field.
Central midfielder Lambert immediately followed Joe Cole, preventing him from easily connecting with Ngogo.
——Although the two sides are still in a stalemate, the situation has actually evolved in an instant! At this time, Ngogo's physical energy has been severely consumed in the power confrontation with Gu Ran! The previous 65 minutes of play were not as tiring as the half minute of confrontation with Gu Ran! This Chinese kid... is he Bruce Lee? He is too tough, right? Ngogo realized that he could not rely on his body to break through Gu Ran, so he gritted his teeth, quickly pulled the ball and turned around, pretending to pass the ball to Glenn——
Gu Ran was not moved at all! Gu Ran predicted that Ngogo's pass was definitely a fake! Because at this time, Glenn's receiving line had been blocked by him, and Ngogo's best passing line should be to Joe Cole who was cutting across.
Therefore, this was not a real pass at all, it was just a fake move!
When N'Gego saw that Gu Ran was not shaken off, he felt a little uneasy.
But he still kicked the ball confidently, trying to force it through the crotch, and then speed up to get rid of Gu Ran.
Gu Ran reacted very quickly and blocked the ball with his legs! The ball was blocked behind N'Gego! Although Gu Ran did not control the ball, N'Gego's second breakthrough was blocked by Gu Ran again! The confidence on N'Gego's face completely disappeared, replaced by a solemnity that had never been seen before! After N'Gego hurriedly turned around and regained control of the ball, he had been forced ten meters away by Gu Ran!
This is equivalent to losing ground!
Liverpool's originally quick flank attack was turned into a positional battle by N'Gogo, and they kept losing ground!
Gu Ran's high-position pressure defense is too fierce! And facing the English superstar, Gu Ran is not afraid at all! Not afraid! Instead, he is very excited!
If this continues, Gu Ran will be able to push Ngogo directly across the half court!
Glenn, who had just completed a perfect edging, was embarrassed!
He could only run the ball over the rim, but couldn't get the ball! And the ball was getting farther and farther away! Glenn retreated with an angry look on his face, turned to the flank area and formed a new connection channel with Ngogo.
It is actually very uncomfortable to get the ball from this position, as there are Southampton defenders all around. You can basically forget about going to the bottom line, and it is also very difficult to dribble inside.
But this is the only solution.
Glenn also relies on his strong physical confrontation. As long as Ngogo can pass the ball in the first time, he still has a great chance to cut inside.
As Glenn ran, he yelled at Ngogo, "Ngogo! Fuck! Pass! Fuck!"
The arrogant and extremely confident N'Gego was completely out of temper at this time because of Gu Ran's defense. He could only kick the ball helplessly and pass it to the rib area where Glenn was.
However, just as N'Gego took his foot and the football started rolling along the grass, Gu Ran shook off N'Gego and started to shoot! N'Gego was startled and quickly changed his mindset to defend. He stretched out his hand to grab Gu Ran's shoulder! He didn't even grab the hair! Gu Ran's speed of shooting was too fast and his action was too sudden, as if he had been ready for it! Before N'Gego could grab the ball, Gu Ran fell to the ground with a beautiful and swift sliding tackle!
Violent sprint +1! Son of the Wind +3! Chasing back and stealing +3! Interception and stealing +3! Anticipation 78! Plus the super leading basketball IQ... all on!
Before the ball reached the center point between Ngogo and Glenn, Gu Ran made a beautiful and fierce sliding tackle and sent it flying to the middle area! "Wow!"
All the fans at the scene exclaimed!
This tackle was simply shocking! It was so sudden, so precise, and so clean, as if he knew in advance how Ngogo would kick! What's even more amazing is that the ball landed right at the feet of his teammate Lambert! This was a crucial shovel and pass!
Liverpool fans covered their mouths in horror, while Southampton fans were all excited!
It's so inspiring! It's so damn inspiring!
This is fucking defense! This is fucking passionate defense that can make people explode with adrenaline, dopamine and endorphins! Southampton fans are all crazy! And this is not the end——
After Gu Ran fell to the ground and completed a precise flying tackle, he straightened his waist and abdomen very smoothly, and stood up in the process of inertia! N'Gogo was stunned! The strong god Glenn was also stunned! Chamberlain, who was full of rebellion, was also stunned!
The female boss Linda in the stands, Evelyn in the news media area, Elizabeth behind the visiting team's bench, and all the cheerleaders of the [Gu Ran Global Supporters Club] all let out an intoxicated "O" in unison! This strong waist and abdominal core strength was so handsome that they drooled! Gu Ran stood up gracefully, glanced at Glenn, then turned around quickly and started to move to the left! Coach Adkins raised his fist and roared loudly: "Counterattack! Southampton! Counterattack!!!"
Southampton's players immediately changed from a defensive formation to an offensive formation, and the offensive players sprinted at full speed! Liverpool woke up from their dream and quickly deployed defenses to intercept! Hodgson on the home team's bench was almost unable to sit still!
This Chinese kid only played for less than 5 minutes! With just two touches of the ball, he led Southampton, a League One team that had been beaten, to launch two counterattacks!
This is fucking… Where on earth did Southampton find such a counter-attacking genius! I am obviously the best head coach in counter-attacking! This kid should be mine! Hodgson stared at Gu Ran!
The situation on the field changed rapidly! Chamberlain was also running desperately on the left side! As a left winger, he was very fast!
But...the left back Gu Ran is faster than him!
Chamberlain is going crazy with hatred!
He was a left midfielder/left winger, but he was left behind by the left back!
Chamberlain accelerated desperately——
N'Gogo couldn't catch up with Gu Ran, so he turned back to intercept Chamberlain.
N'Gego: If I can't beat Gu Ran, how can I beat you? Chamberlain: You're a jerk...
The two of them clung to each other, using each other as a target to vent their anger.
At this time, the football was at Lambert's feet.
Lambert is the type of player who will become more powerful as he gets older.
He has been unknown before, but he has very solid basic skills and uses his brain when handling the ball.
When Lambert was dribbling forward, Joe Cole retreated to press, and the "Brazilian Gerrard" Lucas also quickly double-teamed him on the other side! Lambert realized that he could not hold the ball and face two top Premier League stars at the same time.
At this time, Gu Ran had already created a space on the left side.
Gu Ran shouted at Lambert, "Give it to me, give it to me!"
Lambert didn't hesitate and made a long pass to the left! Joe Cole immediately gave up marking Lambert and joined Carragher in blocking Gu Ran.
The strong god Glenn also accelerated and chased after Gu Ran from behind! However, Ngogo did not outflank him, and was held back by Chamberlain - or rather, Chamberlain was held back by Ngogo.
However, even without N'Gogo's defensive participation, Liverpool's three main players formed a triangle double-team on Gu Ran, extremely quickly compressing Gu Ran's breakthrough space!
Seeing Carragher attacking head-on, Gu Ran did not choose to charge head-on -
Although the Son of Wind had +3 and the star-level violent sprint had +1, but with Liverpool's joint defense speed, even if Carragher was only entangled for a while, this counterattack would be impossible to launch.
Gu Ran did not hesitate. Before Carragher and his two teammates could close the circle, he made a horizontal pass and passed the ball back to Lambert who was supporting in the middle.
A wonderful two-on-three move!
The pass was just in time and broke Liverpool's triangle team.
After Lambert got the ball, he immediately dribbled forward carrying Lucas.
Joe Cole, who was halfway through the run, immediately retreated to help Lucas deal with Lambert.
Carragher also moved to the middle to block the connection between Southampton players.
Only the strong god Glenn was still pursuing Gu Ran relentlessly.
Gu Ran cuts to the ribs without the ball!
Without waiting for Gu Ran to ask for the ball, Lambert made another accurate long pass and handed the ball back to Gu Ran! After the two-on-three pass, there was another two-on-two pass!
The two had never cooperated much before, but Gu Ran had practical skills like "two-on-one cooperation + 4", and Lambert had solid basic skills and clear thinking, so the cooperation between the two was perfect!
After Gu Ran got the ball, Glenn had already approached behind Gu Ran, and Carragher quickly cut off Gu Ran's passage to the penalty area.
Gu Ran kicked the ball between the double team of Carragher and Glenn.
It’s so sudden!
